Granny Luo said with a depressed face, "Sixty Wen."
"Oh, it's only spent half a month for such a small amount of money?"
"Stop making sarcastic remarks, isn't it money to bring five hundred Wen here?"
"Isn't that the money to buy rice and meat?" A villager said, "If you want me to say that you are lucky, you met the medical office, and you met a good official. Look at Jin Erlang's family in the next village. I fell down the mountain, and ended up spending three hangs of money in the pharmacy, and finally couldn’t get better. I carried it back and endured it for half a year. Now the orphans and widows owe foreign debts again. Those days... "
"That's right, although your family spent more than 500 Wen, it still counts the money for your daughter-in-law's childbirth. Look at these two children, how well they are raised. I will also send my family to the medical office when I have a child. That's right. , from Dalang’s family, what did that lord teach you just now?”
The lady of the Luo family said, "Teach me how to raise a child."
She said: "Master Zhou said that if a child cries, it's either hot or cold, or hungry, or it's diarrhea."
Everyone laughed, "Who doesn't know about this?"
"But Mr. Zhou also said that if none of these are true, it means that the child is not feeling well..."
In the past half a month, Zhou Man taught her how to raise children, how to restore her body, and how to treat any diseases that appeared on the woman's body whenever she was free.
Instead of looking for a doctor, they can also find some medicinal herbs in the countryside and boil water to take a bath. It is said that it also has the effect of dispelling evil and relieving itching.
Of course, this kind of thing can't be said at the moment. There are so many men. When they go back, they will say it when women are whispering.
By the way, Aunt Luo also learned a lot, she remembered that her mother-in-law also had many problems, so just go back and talk to her.
The two looked at each other and smiled slightly.
When the lady of the Luo family returned to the village, the village immediately became lively, with adults and children running out to join in the fun.
There is nothing to do in the winter, and living in the medical office is a rare thing at this time. Whether it is a broken leg that does not cost money for treatment, or the wife of the Luo family ran to the county medical office to give birth, or gave birth to twins, it is all the same. Strange thing.
The men gathered around Luo Dalang to watch, while the women huddled in another room to look at the Luo family's wife and children, "You two children are really good-looking. I heard people say that when the child was born, you were very young. In the medical office to take medicine to feed the children every day to support them?"
"What's the medical office like? I've always heard people say that the gate is so high and the yard is so big, so it really doesn't cost money to treat illnesses?"
"No money."
"What's it like to give birth in a hospital? Is it the same as giving birth at home?"
This lady of the Luo family doesn't have much right to speak, because although she was the one who gave birth, she was so focused on giving birth at that time that she didn't pay attention to the things around her, and almost forgot all about it after giving birth, so Aunt Luo became the most loved one. welcome people.
The women listened with gusto, "Is that official really a woman?"
"Isn't it? That's an imperial doctor from the capital. I heard that it's still a make-up. It's very powerful. That official rank is higher than that of our county grandpa."
"Really? Didn't you say that the magistrate and the female officer of the medical department are a married couple?"
"It's a husband and wife, but Mr. Zhou's official position is bigger than that of the county magistrate. Is this what their girl said?"
"It's really strange. It's rare enough for a woman to be an official, but her official position is even greater than that of her husband..."
"No, but Mr. Zhou does know a lot and has a kind heart. When I went out to buy vegetables, I passed by the teahouse. The people inside said that Mr. Zhou is the reincarnation of the gods in the sky, and I have to go back to the sky in the future."
Sitting on the bed, the lady of the Luo family immediately said: "Yes, yes, yes, I also think Master Zhou is the reincarnation of a god. You don't know, but she knows a lot. Auntie, do you remember that Xiaowa Village sent you a few days ago?" A child came over with a big belly and a blue face, but it was alive and kicking. We looked fine, but when she touched it, she said it was a pest. She gave the child some medicine. My God, the child pulled out a lot of bugs , lived in the medical office for three days before leaving, and when he left, his complexion was still not good, but it was no longer as blue as it was at the beginning."
"If it wasn't for the gods, how could she know that there are worms in the belly just by touching it?" Luo's wife said: "Even Doctor Tian who is seeing a doctor together can't see it."
"What kind of god is that? Let's pay our respects later."
Mrs. Luo doesn't know.
Aunt Luo thought for a while, and said uncertainly: "I heard from people in the teahouse that it seems to be something too white..."
"Taibai Jinxing!" A woman immediately clapped her hands and said, "I know, I saw it when I went to worship in the temple last time, she is a very beautiful fairy!"
"... Taibai Jinxing is an immortal under the seat of the Jade Emperor, right? Shouldn't it be in a Taoist temple? I remember it was an old man."
"Oh, I still remember wrongly. The statue that the master said at that time is the Taibai female fairy, who relieves disasters and manages diseases. If you pray, you will be free from illness and disaster."
"Obviously it should be a god in the Taoist temple..."
The two quarreled, and someone immediately smoothed things over, "Oh, don't quarrel, don't care who it is, the reincarnated god is here with us, and it's better to worship the deity instead of worshiping the statue."
"It makes sense."
"But the county seat is too far away, it takes a day to go back and forth."
"It would be troublesome for a god to worship you. How could she bless you with such a dishonest heart?"
"Yeah, yeah, I don't mind the trouble, I'll go to worship after a while."
Zhou Man's original intention was to ask Mrs. Luo and Aunt Luo to promote the medical office for her and help popularize the treatment methods for some common diseases among women. Unexpectedly, before Mrs. Luo could mention it, everyone's topic would be about gods.
So a few days later, when Zhou Man went to the medical office, he happened to meet a woman with two children, with a basket in her hand, and when she arrived at the door of the medical office, she led the child to kneel down...
Zhou Man was startled, and the movement of getting out of the car stopped.
Bai Erlang was also stunned, and hurriedly pushed her back into the car, fearing that there would be some conflict.
"Wait, wait, let someone ask."
"You get in the car first and then ask someone to ask. You are double now, so be careful."
Mingda poked his head out and asked, "What's wrong?"
In the end, the two of them got out of the car, but instead of going forward, they stood aside and watched. Jiulan and an amiable court lady went up to ask questions.
But when the woman took out the incense from the basket, lit it, bowed, then found a crack in a brick and inserted it in, then clasped her hands together and muttered.
Seeing that she was so pious, Jiulan didn't want to disturb her, so she could only ask after she finished praying, "Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"
The woman looked up at Jiulan, pulled the two children up, and said, "Worshiping the gods, little lady, you must be careful when you pass here, don't step on my incense, this is Give it to the gods."
Jiulan stared, and the maid couldn't help asking, "I want to ask sister-in-law which god is worshiping?"
