Chapter 8： Encounter in the hospital

Chapter 8 A chance encounter in the hospital

Liuye took Xiaoya to the fields as usual, and Yang Ergou took his two younger brothers to cut the thatch and try to build a thatched shed today.

As soon as Yang Datou entered the town, he subconsciously wanted to go to the grocery store. Jiang Ning grabbed him and went to the restaurant first.

The restaurant manager opened his business, and people from all walks of life had seen it. Even though Jiang Ning and his son were dressed in tatters, they still greeted them with smiles. They didn't show any dissatisfaction when they learned that they were not here to eat but to sell. Instead, he seriously tasted the melon seeds Jiang Ning brought.

There happened to be a table of businessmen who were going to Fucheng sitting next to them. Everyone was drinking small wine. When they smelled the fragrance of melon seeds, they immediately shouted for the waiter to serve them a plate.

The shopkeeper had no choice but to buy a pound from Jiang Ning and send it over before continuing to discuss business.

Who would have thought that before I even said a few words, someone would come up to me directly and ask, "I am Li Changsheng of the Li family in Xia Dongyang. What do you call me?"

Jiang Ning was speechless. This body was as big as hers. She was only in her early thirties, and she was already an aunt!

She was depressed while adjusting her mentality, and smiled politely, "My husband's surname is Yang, and my maiden name is Jiang. Just call me Yang Jiang."

“Ms. Jiang, I wonder how to sell these melon seeds?” Li Changsheng stared at the melon seeds in the basket eagerly, as if he was determined to get them.

The shopkeeper looked a little ugly and said, "Sir, you are also a businessman. You should know the principle of first come, first served!"

Li Changsheng sneered twice, "Don't be angry, shopkeeper, I'm just asking! If you don't buy it, I'll cover it! The price is negotiable!"

"Hey! Did I say you don't want to buy it? I've covered it all!" The shopkeeper originally thought it was too expensive and planned to bargain again, but after being disturbed by Li Changsheng, the negotiation couldn't be concluded! I can only charge it at the price of four cents.

Li Changsheng looked regretful and asked Jiang Ning: "Ms. Jiang, do you still have any goods over there? I want as much as you can! The price is negotiable."

Jiang Ning shook his head regretfully, "That's all for today. I'll sell them all to the shopkeeper. If Mr. Li wants it, he'll have to wait a day. He'll probably be able to get around 40 kilograms tomorrow."

 Today these are about thirty kilograms, which they have made with the whole family's efforts. Forty kilograms is almost their limit.

Li Changsheng was overjoyed, "Okay, okay! We happen to have a deal with the Tang family that we haven't reached yet, and we have to stay in Dashan Town for two days. Tomorrow, when Mrs. Jiang comes over, go directly to the Dashan Inn to find me. Just tell the shopkeeper. This is the deposit."

Li Changsheng was very wealthy and gave him a deposit of 100 yuan at once, and he was not afraid that Jiang Ning would take the money and run away.

The mother and son exchanged more than 100 Wen from the restaurant, plus the 100 Wen deposit given by Li Changsheng. Yang Datou had money and had nothing to worry about, so he insisted on taking Jiang Ning to Hong'antang to see Dr. Li for medical treatment.

Jiang Ning couldn't resist him, so he had no choice but to go.

Hongantang is the only medical clinic and pharmacy in Dashan Town. It is quite large and you have to queue up to see a doctor.

Yang Datou went to line up voluntarily. Jiang Ning wandered around, walked to the medicine man and asked: "Child, does your medical clinic accept medicinal materials?"

"Of course I'll take it. Do you want to sell medicinal materials?" the boy asked crisply.

Jiang Ning was used to being called auntie over and over again. He nodded without changing his expression, "I have dried some Chinese oak towers over there, do you want to take them?"

“How is the condition?” the child asked seriously.

Jiang Ning was a little embarrassed, "It hasn't been dried yet, so I just wanted to inquire about the price."

The boy turned around and took some gallnuts from the medicine cabinet and showed them to Jiang Ning, "We only accept the ones of this quality. Clean them and dry them. They cost five cents per catty."

Five cents is really not much, Jiang Ning frowned, "How much can you charge?"

“You will receive as much as you have.”

“What a loud tone!” Jiang Ning was shocked. The little boy grinned and said, "Our boss is in the medicine business. He travels all over the country and can sell any amount of goods."

Jiang Ning suddenly realized that it seemed that this mountain town was also full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, but ordinary people like them didn't know it.

As he spoke, it was finally Jiang Ning’s turn.

The doctor looked at her carefully and said thoughtfully: "There is nothing wrong with this lady, she is just a little short of qi and blood. Just eat more meat to make up for it. If you are really worried, just prescribe two pills and go back to get through it."

Jiang Ning shook his head vigorously, "No need, doctor, I can just eat meat!"

Yang Datou felt relieved knowing that Jiang Ning was fine. He had a smile on his face when he walked out of Hong'an Hall. Before he had taken two steps, a group of people rushed into the hospital carrying a man, followed by a wailing man. woman.

Jiang Ning didn’t pay much attention to it, but Yang Datou pulled her back and said, “Mom, that seems to be Uncle Yang Yong from the second uncle’s family.”

"What nonsense?" Jiang Ning recalled carefully and found that the original owner had never thought about establishing a good relationship with the people in the village. She didn't know which families in the village were related to them. I live in a hazy state and don’t know what’s going on.

She let out a long sigh of relief, smiled dryly, and asked weakly: "What does it have to do with our family?"

Yang Datou was stunned for a moment before he said in a daze: "I have forgotten that grandma didn't care about these things before. My second uncle and grandpa are brothers, and Uncle Yang Yong is my father's cousin. I want to call him my cousin."

Jiang Ning finally understood these brain-burning relatives, and also knew that this family was quite close to them.

Seeing that Jiang Ning was still dazed, Yang Datou said: "Auntie, I'll go in and see if I can help. You wait here and don't run around."

Jiang Ning hesitated and followed in.

In the medical clinic, Mrs. Zhang, Yang Yong’s mother-in-law, was still breaking down and crying. Xu arrived at the medical clinic, feeling a little calmer and crying less loudly.

Yang Yong’s eldest son Yang Xiao saw Yang Datou and asked with tears in his eyes: “Brother Datou, why are you here?”

Yang Datou looked at Jiang Ning who was coming in from outside, and said bravely: "Bring my mother-in-law to show the doctor."

Yang Xiao saw Jiang Ning and lowered his head with guilt.

Ms. Zhang was still crying and said nothing, and no one else paid any attention to Jiang Ning and her son.

The doctor came out quickly, his brows furrowed tightly, "The patient's injuries were too serious and he was bleeding too much. Fortunately, he was brought here in time. I have stopped the bleeding, but his leg is broken. If he doesn't take good care of him, he will be in trouble in the future." No more work!"

Zhang's mood flew from **** to heaven, and then from heaven to hell, with great ups and downs, and she was completely confused.

Yang Xiao and his three uncles negotiated with the doctor. Just for diagnosis, treatment and prescription of medicine, it cost 200 cash. The money they brought together was still 35 cash short.

Jiang Ning looked on coldly, not intending to care, but Yang Datou was soft-hearted and looked at her several times.

Jiang Ning sighed, took thirty-five coins from his arms and handed it to him, and said coldly: "I'll lend it to you for the time being. We are very poor. Remember to pay it back later."

Yang Xiao was stunned, and the Zhang family looked like they had seen a ghost.

They couldn't come back to their senses until Jiang Ning's mother and son left.

Yang Yong’s younger brother Yang Jun murmured: "Is this still the same Jiang family that cats hate dogs? Why does it look like a different person?"
