Farmhouse Green Plum

Chapter 213 Debasement

Song Ying was really hungry, so he didn't bother to be polite with Lin Wenxuan and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Senior Brother."

She lifted the lid of the pot and looked at the wontons kept warm in the water. She suddenly felt even hungrier.

Song Ying was busy until the clinic closed in the evening. Except for eating, she spent most of her time in the inner room giving acupuncture to people. After a whole day, she only felt extreme pain in her neck and shoulders.

When she returned to the Shen Mansion, she didn't even want to talk.

Doctor Lin seemed to have expected this. He said before Song Ying could say anything, "It will be hard during this period, but it will be easy later."

"Master, do you know what happened at the clinic today? Did you go there?"

Doctor Lin shook his head and took the food box from her. "You can guess, but don't underestimate the power of word of mouth among the aunties and grandmas. I'm sure all the aunties and grandmas on those streets knew about the acupuncture you gave to Aunt Wu from the steamed bun shop yesterday.

They had been suffering from this disease for a long time, and finally they had a female doctor who could give them acupuncture, so they were naturally anxious. "

Doctor Lin said as he was setting the table, "Don't be annoyed by the same acupuncture points all the time. You need to be patient when treating illnesses."

"Master, I understand. Now I can find acupuncture points like Guanyuan and Qihai much faster, and I am more proficient in acupuncture!

I can't chew too much, I wish I could have more opportunities to use the Burning Mountain Fire Needle Technique."

Doctor Lin smiled with relief, "Don't worry, there are plenty of opportunities. In two days, not only the women in those streets will know about it, I'm afraid that half of the vendors in Qingshui County will know that Huichuntang has a female doctor who can give people acupuncture."

Song Ying rubbed his shoulders, feeling even more sore, "I hope they don't all come at once."

In the following days, just as her master had expected, there was a constant stream of women coming to the clinic, and Song Ying was busy from morning to night almost every day.

Seeing how busy she was, Doctor Lin didn't let her go to teach Shen Wanting and the others how to prepare medicinal food for the next day in the evening. She personally watched them prepare it every day.

In a blink of an eye, it was the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Song Ying's birthday.

During this period of time, she waited anxiously, but Luo Yanxing and Xiaoxiang never showed up. She was also very busy and had no time to go back to Xinghua Village.

She comforted herself by thinking that Xiaoxiang's birthday was on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, so she could set the birthday celebration date in the twelfth lunar month this year. After a month, there would definitely be fewer people coming to her for acupuncture, and she would have time to take leave and go back.

By noon, she had already given acupuncture to five or six people, and the silver needles were almost used up, so Song Ying took them out and planned to go to the pharmacy to boil some, so that she could also take the opportunity to relax.

"Isn't this Song Ying? You've caught a cold too?" As soon as the curtain was opened, a surprised voice rang out, with a hint of gloating in the last sentence.

Song Ying looked over and saw Aunt Liu and her daughter-in-law sitting on the bench next to them. Ma Chun'er was holding her daughter in her arms, and the one who was talking was Aunt Liu.

"What do you mean by catching a cold? This is Doctor Xiao Song, who is giving us acupuncture!" Before Song Ying could answer, an old lady glanced at Aunt Liu and said, "From the tone of your voice, I can tell that you know Doctor Xiao Song. How come you don't know about this?"

After saying that, the old woman stood up and asked with a smile: "Doctor Xiao Song, is it my turn next?"

Song Ying nodded and shook the silver needle in his hand, "Grandma, please go in and wait for me. I'll go and boil the silver needle."

The old lady had talked with other neighbors about Song Ying's acupuncture many times, and she also knew that the silver needles she used had to be boiled in water before being used again.

I agreed very happily, "Then let the old lady wait for you outside, I will talk to them."

"Okay, grandma, please do as you please."

Listening to the conversation between Song Ying and the old woman, Aunt Liu was stunned. "She can give people acupuncture? It's so funny. She is an orphan without a father or a mother. Where did she learn medical skills? Don't be fooled by her."

Song Ying: “…”

Is there any necessary connection between her knowing acupuncture and the fact that she is an orphan?

"We are from the same village as her. We have watched her grow up since she was little. How could she know any medical skills? She can't even read a few words."

After Aunt Liu finished her scolding, she turned to look at Song Ying and said earnestly, "Song Ying, you have to be honest. No matter how poor you are, you can't cheat people."

A woman looked at Song Ying hesitantly and said, "Little girl, do you know how to do acupuncture?"

She had been accompanying an elder in her family to the city for medical treatment. She heard that there was a female doctor who knew acupuncture in the clinic. Thinking that she also suffered from back and leg pain frequently, and the acupuncture fee was only 10 cents, she had planned to have acupuncture in a while. But when she heard this, her heart began to beat.

She had never heard of a ten-year-old girl knowing acupuncture. If she hadn't seen many women coming to her for acupuncture and praising her highly, she would not have dared to do so.

Song Ying did not answer her, but looked directly at the culprit and said unhappily: "Aunt Liu, you are neither my father nor my mother, how do you know me so well? We haven't seen each other for more than two months."

She pointed at Doctor Ma who was feeling someone's pulse and said, "This is Huichuntang. My uncle is still sitting here. How can it be a lie? Huichuntang has been here for so many years. Who in Qingshui County doesn't know about it?"

"That's right, ma'am, don't listen to what this woman says." The old lady who was going to have acupuncture in a while spoke up for Song Ying, "Doctor Song has been doing acupuncture for seven or eight days. Almost all the women in our streets have come to her for acupuncture, and the effect is very good!"

Doctor Ma couldn't just sit back and watch the reputation of Huichuntang. He twisted his beard and said gently, "As the saying goes, one should look at a man with new eyes after three days of absence. My niece hasn't been back to the village for a long time. You don't know how she has changed in the past few months. She is really good at acupuncture."

After that, he quickly wrote the prescription and handed it to the patient, then said to Ma Chun'er, "Bring the child here."

Ma Chun'er was too shocked to care about it. She quickly carried the child forward and said, "Doctor Ma, please take a good look at this child. This child always likes to cough in the morning and evening. At first, he only coughed occasionally, but it has become more serious in the past two days. I feel like his heart and lungs are about to be coughed out."

When Aunt Liu saw this, she didn't bother to talk to Song Ying, and hurried forward and said, "Children are weak, and it's normal for them to have a cold and cough in the morning and evening. Young people have no experience and love to be startled.

Doctor Ma, you just need to take a look. Medicines are toxic. It is better not to prescribe medicine for such a young child."

Ma Chun'er was furious and hurriedly stopped him, "Mom, don't talk nonsense. Doctor Ma is a doctor. He knows whether to prescribe medicine or not."

After that, he turned to Doctor Ma and said, "Doctor Ma, don't be angry. My mother-in-law is a country girl. How can she know how to diagnose and prescribe medicine? Just prescribe whatever medicine is most effective, regardless of the price."

Aunt Liu was angry and distressed, and scolded: "What do you mean I, a country girl, don't understand? She is just a little girl without a penis, and you treat her so preciously."
