Farmhouse Green Plum

Chapter 442 Buying Clothes

After crying for a while, the old woman stopped being shy and untied her belt neatly. She said, "It used to fall out occasionally when I was working, and I would just put it back in. But recently, I don't know why, it suddenly hurts and itches..."

"Underwear should be light and soft, not rough cloth like this, fine cotton is best."

"Oh, fine cotton isn't cheap."

Song Ying sighed softly, "If it really doesn't work, you can just use fine cotton cloth for the crotch part. There are obvious skin tears here, so you can't wear coarse cloth clothes. Change and wash your underwear frequently..."

After the examination, Song Ying used silver needles to prick the Weibao, Qihai, Sanyinjiao and other acupuncture points, and prescribed Longdan Xiegan Decoction to the old woman, "Take a dose of medicine first, and come to the clinic in two days for me to check on the situation. Take this medicine twice a day. Oh, and I'll prescribe some medicine for fumigation and washing. Fumigation first and then washing. Remember to add more water."

Song Ying's calm eyes and confident tone gave the old woman a lot of confidence, thinking that this was just a very common minor illness. In addition, after acupuncture, she felt much better, and the hot, itchy and painful feeling below was no longer there, so she was very convinced of Song Ying's ability.

She took the prescription and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll remember it."

"Also, don't do heavy work and don't squat for long periods of time," Song Ying warned again.

In the past, this doctor's advice would have been difficult for the old woman to follow. Not to mention the work in the fields, she would have to carry water for cooking. If she didn't do it, she would be left with nothing.

But now, these things can be left to the daughters-in-law, and she just needs to talk.

The old woman agreed again and went out with the prescription. Mr. Wang, who was waiting at the door, immediately came up to her and asked, "What did the doctor say?"

Just after he asked, he saw Song Ying coming out, and Mr. Wang's face suddenly became extremely embarrassed.

Song Ying replied naturally, as if he hadn't seen it, "I've already prescribed the medicine. Take one dose first and come back for a follow-up visit in two days."

"Uh, okay, okay."

Mr. Wang felt ashamed. Some time ago, his wife felt uncomfortable in her lower body, so she suggested going to Huichuntang to see Song Ying. He was very ashamed and angry at the time.

This unspeakable disease was known to the student's sister. How could he, as a teacher, hold his head up in front of his students?

I thought this time it would be the same as before and I could just bear with it myself, but it became more and more serious and I had to see a doctor.

But at first, he didn't want to come to see Song Ying because of his embarrassing identity, but his old wife insisted on coming. She couldn't open her mouth at all in front of those male doctors.

Because of this, the two had a quarrel. In the end, he couldn't win and had to put aside his pride and bring his old wife to Huichuntang to find Song Ying.

His expression reminded the old woman of the contempt and grievances she had suffered in the past. She immediately became very angry and cursed, "Why are you being so stubborn, you old fool? The doctor said that this is a very common disease, and it was caused by those troublemakers."

This aggressive attitude was completely different from when she first arrived at the clinic, and Song Ying was a little confused.

After seeing them off, she went to the pharmacy to write medical records. While waiting for the restaurant to deliver lunch, a voice suddenly rang out at the door, "Sister."

Song Ying raised his eyes and saw Song Yuan standing at the door. He was dressed in a blue cloth student's shirt, and looked very refined, like a scholar.

She couldn't help but sigh. She had persuaded her family to send her son to school early just to have an excuse to learn to read, but she didn't expect that he would actually become a scholar.

As she put away the medical records, she said, "Today is a day off. Did grandma specially bring you to the city to play?"

Song Yuan nodded, then asked curiously, "Eh? How do you know I'm taking a day off today?"

"Your husband brought your mistress to see the doctor just now. Your husband is not here, so you must be taking a break." Song Ying said as he took out some snacks for him.

"So this is what you meant by sir, the family problem." Song Yuan suddenly realized and looked relieved, "Luckily I was delayed on the road just now, otherwise I would have bumped into you, sir."

"Didn't you say you were good at your studies? Why are you still afraid of the teacher?"

"That's also scary. Yesterday, the teacher told us to study hard when we return home. If he saw me going to the city to play, he would definitely scold me." Song Yuan sat down on a high stool outside the medicine cabinet and asked with concern, "What disease is Master's wife suffering from? Is it serious?"

"Don't ask about the patient's affairs." After a pause, she continued, "Now that you know about this matter, tell grandma and the others when you go back, and bring some eels to visit them."

Yellow eel is warm in nature, and can replenish qi and blood, nourish the liver and kidneys, strengthen the muscles and bones, and eliminate rheumatism, which is beneficial for this disease.

Song Yuan nodded, and glanced at the blank space of the open medical book on the table, which was annotated with fine small characters, "Did you write this, sister? Wow, your handwriting is really beautiful."

"Just practice more. By the way, how is your calligraphy copying? You can't relax on this. A neat paper and beautiful handwriting can give the examiner a good impression."

"I copy a hundred characters every day, but my handwriting is not as good as yours." Song Yuan felt guilty and ashamed. He studied in school every day, but his handwriting was not even as good as his sister who was busy treating patients all day.

Song Ying did not blame him, but said: "The amount of calligraphy practice is not important, the key is to practice with heart. If you can practice well, even if you only copy that one character every day, it can be considered very effective."

Song Yuan nodded obediently, "Okay, I'll go back and try."

"Don't slack off on your studies during the recent holidays. After the college entrance examination in August, Jiahu Academy will have a unified entrance examination. If you can pass the exam, we will be close to you in the future, and we can invite you to eat anything delicious we make."

Song Yuan's eyes lit up and he nodded immediately: "I will definitely do well in the exam!"

If you fail to get into Jiahu Academy, you have to go to Qingshui Academy, which is located on the mountain outside the city, very far away. Not to mention going to my sister's house for free food and drinks, it's hard to buy delicious food even if you have money.

Seeing him like this, Song Ying couldn't help but smile, "You've read so many books, but you're still so greedy."

Song Yuan laughed, and this laugh completely dissipated all the gentlemanly air in his body, and he became the most familiar face in Song Ying's memory.

"Oh, by the way, grandma and the others are going to the cloth shop to buy cloth for spring clothes, and they want you to go over and pick some."

"Oh, they still remembered to make spring clothes for me? The sun is rising from the west?" Song Ying was surprised. Ever since she had a falling out with her family and moved to the city, her family refused to spend a penny on her. During the Chinese New Year, she didn't even have the one or two cents of New Year's money.

Moreover, even before the incident, the family seldom made spring clothes. Even when they made clothes for her to see them later, they only made winter clothes. After all, farmers get married and visit relatives in the twelfth lunar month, so winter clothes just need to be wearable when going out. Spring and summer clothes are all made by patching together rags.

Song Yuan blushed: "The spring clothes at home are too torn. Grandma said that we are growing up and need to make some clothes for going out."
