Chapter 37

The ancients loved to listen to operas. After all, they couldn't do much except listen to operas, especially women.

It's hard to hear opera in the countryside. The nearest opera garden is also in the town. It takes a lot of coppers to get in. The country people can't afford to hear it.

Although the old lady can't sing, she can speak in detail.

"Where did you listen to the play?" Gu Jiao asked.

"I don't remember." Said the old lady, shaking her head.

Seeing that she didn't look like a liar, Gu Jiao said, "do you remember anything else?"

The old lady thought seriously, "no more."

Gu Jiao

Gu Jiao then said, "can you stop fooling people like this in the future?"

The old lady thought seriously again, "No

Gu Jiao

--

As the new year approaches, Gu Jiao becomes too busy to keep an eye on the old lady. The old lady occasionally acts as a demon, but she can do it all by herself without causing any trouble to Gu Jiao and Xiao LIULANG.

Then Gu Jiao went to the temple again. The master who was in charge of the property had not come back. Gu Jiao decided to come back in a few years.

The academy held another exam a few years ago. I don't know if it was affected by the theft. Gu Dashun's performance was much weaker this time. Suddenly, he fell into the class. Some people suspected that he was at the end of his talent, while others suspected that he had cheated in the first place. But President Li has always been firm and trustworthy, and Xiao LIULANG is talented.

No matter what others say, he doesn't want to give up Xiao LIULANG.

The imperial examination is held once every three years. There will be Qiuwei next year. If you miss it, you have to wait for the next three years.

And the examinee that participates in Qiu Wei must pass County examination first, take an examination of scholar.

The county examination is held every three months. There is a new year's day. President Li hesitates for a moment and reports his name to Xiao LIULANG without authorization.

Gu Jiao doesn't know all this yet. The academy is on annual leave. Tomorrow is the day to operate on Xiao LIULANG. She has to sleep and adjust herself to the best condition.

In fact, she didn't have to do too much of this kind of operation in her previous life. It's reasonable that she doesn't have to have any psychological burden at all. It's not the same to operate on a stranger as Xiao LIULANG.

So perfect cub, she can't leave any regrets on him.

Before going to bed, Gu Jiao checked the small medicine box. Sure enough, the anesthetic and injection needed for the operation have all appeared.

These drugs are not those sold in pharmacies in previous generations, they are all institute drugs. Gu Jiao seriously suspected that as long as the Research Institute did not close down, her medicine box would continue to supply.

Well, it's a good thing!

Gu Jiao had a good sleep. After she got up, she made breakfast and boiled the medicine for the old lady.

When Gu Jiao took the medicine to the old lady's house, the old lady hesitated to look at the pills on the plate and the juice in the bowl. She frowned and said, "why do I think this soup is drinkable

"You think too much. The soup is as important as the pill." Gu Jiao said without changing her face.

The old lady drank the pills and the soup suspiciously. She rolled her eyes. She seriously suspected that Gu Jiao had come to revenge her for being a demon.

Gu Jiao still entrusts the old lady to Xue Ningxiang, and then goes to the hospital with Xiao LIULANG in Uncle Luo's ox cart.

Feng Lin will never miss such an important day.

He had been waiting in the hospital for a long time, but now it was getting colder and colder, and he didn't want to sit inside and wait. He was frozen into a little popsicle outside.

Feng Lin saw the couple on the cart and his face sank.

He has a kind of impulse to scold dog men and women, but he pressed, brother Xiao is not wrong, is this woman more and more shameless, always stick to brother Xiao!

Gu Jiao saw Feng Lin with a calm face: "didn't you go back for the new year?"

Feng Lin snorted: "my home is so far away, how can I go back?"

Gu Jiao then remembered that the transportation was inconvenient in ancient times. The distance that the high-speed railway could reach in one day in previous generations might take a month here. Feng Lin may not have got home yet, and the annual leave is over.

Gu Jiao: "Oh."

Feng Lin hit the cotton with a fist

The day was set in advance. Shopkeeper Wang and the old doctor were waiting in the clinic at dawn.

Feng Lin and Gu Jiao follow in.

The old doctor first asked Xiao LIULANG about his medicine fumigation at home these days.

"Every night before going to bed, there is medicine fumigation." Xiao LIULANG said truthfully.

Every night when he came home from school, Gu Jiao had already cooked the food and cooked his medicine.

The old doctor nodded.

Feng Lin said, "Doctor Zhang, is brother Xiao's leg getting better soon?"

Old man way: "good, to wait until after the operation to know."

"What did you say? Surgery? " Feng Lin was stunned.

Xiao LIULANG's eyes also passed a trace of consternation.

Gu Jiao was worried about this situation, so she didn't tell them that surgery in this era is not popular, people's acceptance is not high, and it is generally believed that it can only be used in the battlefield.

Feng Lin was frightened and said, "Doctor Zhang! You didn't say that before! "

Of course, the old doctor would not tell the truth. He said with a straight face, "it's not that the conditions at that time did not allow it. Now the medicine has been smoked for a period of time, and the meridians have been opened, so we can have an operation."

But after all, this is a major event. Feng Lin hesitated to use a knife on people: "is there no other way but surgery?"

"Well." The old doctor nodded.

"Will it succeed?" Feng Lin asked again.

"It's not guaranteed." The old doctor felt his conscience and said, "if he does, he will be able to walk normally. If he fails, he may be worse than he is now."

This is Gu Jiao's original words. Even if she is the most powerful doctor in the Research Institute, she dare not boast that there is no risk in which operation.

"Brother Xiao..." Feng Lin backed out. He was a conservative and didn't want to take such a big risk.

But Xiao LIULANG lightly moved the corner of his lips and said carelessly, "then let's have an operation. Please bother Dr. Zhang."

He promised so fast that even Gu Jiao looked at him.

In fact, even if we have been together for so long, Gu Jiao has never really understood him, but at that moment, she seems to feel a cold indifference on him.

It's like... He doesn't mind that the operation might fail.

Is he really brave or doesn't care about his life at all?
