Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

Chapter 8



No one noticed Tianding's abnormality. The most discussed thing was that June Feixue was not an auspicious photo. Some people said that there was an unjust case, some people said that there was a catastrophe, some people said that the new emperor was a tricky person, and some people said that the former emperor was buried. The status is not good, the guests who have not left in the inn have everything to say, and some people ask Master Wang for his opinion, but Master Wang did not reply at all.

On a snowy night, Mrs. Wang had a fever again. Wang Xiuyun was woken up by her mother's feverish body. She cried again and ran to the room where her father and brothers lived, and slammed the door loudly.Master Wang calmly asked the eldest son to find a doctor, and then asked the younger son to ask the shopkeeper for some spirits, ginger soup and hot water by the way.As for his daughter, Mr. Wang felt that after his wife took care of her health, she needed to raise her well.

Tian Ding held back his elder sister and asked her to add two more quilts to her mother. Wang Xiuyun nodded indiscriminately, and Tian Ding called the shopkeeper's door.Compared with the Wang family who has developed the habit of being superior to others, Tian Ding's mouth is sweet and pleasing. Even if he called for the door late at night, the shopkeeper's face did not show dissatisfaction. When he heard what Tim Ding wanted, he immediately asked Xiao Er to get it. Seeing Tian Ding call him brother, because all the emotions of being woken up are gone. You must know that the little baby's family background is obviously not something he can cling to.Everyone wants others to respect, Xiao Er is no exception, he quickly entered the kitchen and prepared the things that Tian Ding wanted.

Mrs. Wang's fever this time was obviously worse than last time. Wang Xiuyun wiped away her tears and kept helping her mother wipe the exposed places. Master Wang just sat by the bed. the handkerchief.Mrs. Wang was a little confused from the fever, and her hands and feet moved unconsciously, kicking the two children several times.Wang Xiuyun bit her lower lip, while Tian Ding simply sat next to her mother's lap and hugged her mother's leg tightly so that her sister could wipe the wine for her mother.

In one month, she was exposed to wind and cold one after another, and Mrs. Wang's foundation was really bad.Looking at his mother's face, he felt that he was younger than the white paper, and kept looking towards the door anxiously, why did the elder brother go for so long.Mrs. Wang woke up in a daze, barely able to open her eyes, and saw Xianggong sitting next to her, and her children busy wiping something.

"Mom, what's wrong?" The only thing that was better than last time was that Mrs. Wang stayed asleep last time and didn't wake up until the fever subsided. This time she woke up before the fever subsided.Wang Xiuyun, who was wiping her mother's body, was the first to notice that her mother had woken up and quickly asked, not wanting to choke her voice, her nose became sore, and tears fell down, "It's all my fault."

"Nonsense, mother is fine." Mrs. Wang was very weak, but she still didn't want her daughter to blame herself, "Mother's own body is not clear yet, it's just a little weak, it's all right."

The more Mrs. Wang said that, the more Wang Xiuyun cried, but she didn't stop wiping her hands very seriously, hoping that her mother would cool down quickly.Master Wang picked up the ginger soup, helped his wife stand up, and asked her to drink it.Mrs. Wang regarded it as medicine, and drank the whole bowl without thinking too much, and then she felt that the taste was not right.

"It's ginger soup. It's used to drive away the cold. Bai'er has gone to invite the doctor." After Mrs. Wang drank all the ginger soup, he slowly let her lie down. Two doses of medicine, people will be fine."

Mrs. Wang nodded, then closed her eyes, tightened the quilt, and felt even colder after sitting up for a while.The quilt was very heavy, and when I looked up, there were two more quilts on it, and the youngest son was also on it, "Tian Ding, get down quickly, don't get sick."

Tian Ding sat up and patted his chest, "Mom, I'm fine, I'm strong!"

Mrs. Wang was amused by her son, it didn't matter that she was amused, she coughed a few times, so frightened that Tian Ding crawled over to help her mother Shun Shun.Wang Xiuyun came over and looked at her mother worriedly. Master Wang poured a bowl of water for his wife and brought it to her mouth.After drinking his saliva, he suppressed the discomfort of wanting to cough again, and waved his hand at his son. Tian Ding didn't dare to press his mother any longer. The mother should sleep for a while and sweat a little.

After Mrs. Wang squinted again, the doctor finally came. Many people caught cold in the evening. When Wang Xiubai went to the medicine hall, the doctor went out to see the doctor. He waited for a long time for the doctor to come back, before he had a drink of hot tea. Then rushed over.The doctor took Mrs. Wang's pulse very seriously, but raised his eyebrows at the strong smell of alcohol in the room, and didn't ask any further questions.After the doctor finished calling the pulse, he invited Mr. Wang to the side, asked Mrs. Wang's illness certificate, and said a lot of twisted words, which were translated into simple words, the stagnation before, and the wind and cold after that were not cured. I was injured, and now it recurs. Even if I recover, I am afraid that my body will be weaker than before, and I can't work hard, let alone worry.

Tian Ding looked at his father begging the doctor for treatment, but he was frowning in his heart. Wind and cold can kill people. The level of medical treatment in ancient times is really worrying, but there are many powerful prescriptions in ancient times?In later generations, there is arguing about Chinese medicine, which is better than Western medicine. One side says that Chinese medicine treats the root cause and Western medicine treats the symptoms. But in this era, what is the root of Chinese medicine?The doctor's tone of voice was as if his mother would die if she got sick again. Is it because the doctor can't speak, or is he thinking too much?But no matter what it is, Tian Ding only thinks that there is one thing in common, no matter it is ancient, modern, or apocalyptic, the cost of seeing a doctor is extremely high.And most of the doctors are watching people order dishes. When they meet a poor family, the writing method is effective, fast, and cheap. If they look at a rich family, they are two words, slow and expensive.

The doctor I met in Liangzhou had a conscience and medical ethics, but this one is far behind. A set of medicine is more than twice as expensive as that in Liangzhou.Tian Ding lived in the apocalypse in his previous life. At the beginning of the apocalypse, when he got sick, there was quick and effective western medicine. Later, they could only find Chinese medicine in the pharmacy to take it, so that Tian Ding could also get a prescription.Among the prescriptions written by the doctor, in Tian Ding's opinion, only one flavor can be regarded as the right medicine, and the other flavors are all useless, which can't be cured or cured.Tian Ding looked up at the doctor, feeling annoyed from the bottom of his heart. This man obviously slaughtered them as fat sheep.

Perhaps Tian Ding's gaze was too obvious, the doctor looked at Tian Ding, seeing that it was a child, he still hesitated in his heart, if it was a child from an ordinary family, the doctor would not care, but this family obviously looked unusual, Those who are dragging their families don't know where to go, if they find something wrong, come back and look for him... The doctor's heart tightened, and he hurriedly said that he would like to add two more medicines to the prescription.

Tian Ding looked at the doctor coldly, he was not afraid of putting people to death.

The previous prescription has changed a lot, Tian Ding looked at it again, it can be regarded as the right medicine, but he still told the elder brother who followed the medicine to keep an eye on the little boy who grasped the medicine, and don't let the other party take other medicines.I don't trust the doctor, and I don't even have a good impression of the people in the medicine hall.The doctor was so angry at what Tian Ding said, he shook his sleeves and left. Master Wang asked Tian Ding to apologize to the doctor. Tim Ding looked at his father, "If he wasn't guilty, how could he leave in such a hurry."

"False." Master Wang pointed to Tianding and nodded.

Tian Ding lowered his head and curled his lips. He was more and more... shaking his head towards his father.

Wang Xiubai came back quickly from grabbing the medicine, and told his younger brother that he had been staring at the medicine that the boy was grabbing, and deliberately asked the other party to slow down.Tian Ding gave his eldest brother a thumbs up in his heart. The eldest brother obviously understood what he said, and he was much better than his father.In fact, Tian Ding thought too much, Wang Xiubo didn't understand what his younger brother meant, it was only because of his mother that he paid special attention.Tian Ding and his eldest brother once again shouldered the task of decocting the medicine. This time, five sets of medicine were prescribed, one in the morning and one in the evening.

After taking the first dose of medicine, Mrs. Wang's fever subsided, but she still felt weak, sweating, and started to cough.Hearing the sound of his mother coughing, Tian Ding was very worried. There were no pears this season, so he couldn't do it even if he wanted to make pear soup for his mother to clear her throat.People who are accustomed to modern life, even after living in the last days for many years, still have various discomforts with ancient life.

The snow lasted for three days. Mrs. Wang's illness improved after the snow stopped, and she took two more medicines. After taking it for a day, Mrs. Wang seemed more energetic, but she still had a persistent cough.Master Wang doesn't seem to trust the doctor in Bianyang at the moment. There is only one doctor in the whole town, and there is no one to find anyone else.Mr. Wang thought to wait until the next bigger city before asking the doctor to take the pulse of his wife. Now he can only take two more medicines to see.

On the fourth day after the snow stopped, the group of people started on the road again. The journey went smoothly until the next city, but because of the snow disaster, it took nearly a month on the way. Most of them lived in the wild on the way, and only a few When I was a child, I would live in a fellow villager's house. Because I heard about being robbed before, Mr. Wang did not dare to enter the village, let alone approach the village.By the time they entered the city, Lord Wang's family had been hungry for a day.

In August, their itinerary was not yet halfway through, Master Wang frowned thinking about the money in his hand, he needed to find something to make a living, otherwise they would not be able to stay home.Master Wang looked to the sky, why did the sky treat him like this, what did he do wrong, he thought he had a clear conscience, but now?He just went back to his hometown, with three hurdles at every step. His wife was getting weaker and weaker but she was holding on. He was worried that his wife would not be able to make it through. There were still young children who had not grown up, and daughters who were not married, and the eldest son was not married. Help each other until old.Master Wang looked up to the sky and sighed, but there was no response.

God probably really didn't like Mr. Wang, the night when they entered the city was cloudy, and in the middle of the night there were thunder and lightning, the rumble was very scary.Mrs. Wang and her daughter were both woken up by fright. Mrs. Wang propped herself up to find her husband. Mr. Wang quickly came over to guard the mother and daughter. There was nothing wrong with Tian Ding, and she continued to sleep soundly without even turning over. .Wang Xiubo looked at his younger brother and felt that his brother's heart was really big. Then he turned over and couldn't fall asleep anymore. The sound of thunder accompanied his ears, and he couldn't fall asleep, but he didn't have a book to accompany him. Thinking about his previous life, Wang Xiubo sighed.
