Escape from the desert

Chapter 159 Meeting an Acquaintance
Jiang Yan's group of four walked on the street, not far from being crowded with people, because it was close to the wharf, some people even led livestock and horses, and blocked a small shop on the third floor and the outside. From time to time, there were various quarrelling and insulting voices.

Jiang Yan frowned slightly. She still knew the three characters Huichuntang on the plaque. She wanted to go to the medical center to buy some medicinal materials for the soup, but this small medical center was obviously in trouble with the doctor. She was thinking about it. Whether or not to bypass it directly.

"Mother..." Lin Feng looked at the noisy crowd and was a little cowardly. He didn't like crowded places, and he didn't like to leave the house, but Lin Bei went to a private school. He was afraid of being alone, so he would go wherever Mother went. .

"I don't know what happened. There was still a child lying on the ground. It looked like vomiting and diarrhea. I'm afraid it won't last." Li Zheng lifted his neck and looked in.

Jiang Yan is not very interested. She has seen a lot of medical troubles, some of which are the problems of the doctor and some of the family members. Mind your own business.

Holding Lin Feng, Jiang Yan was about to go around. When she turned her head, she saw a familiar face, with picturesque eyebrows, long hair like ink, and a stunningly handsome face. The shopkeeper of a nameless bookstore on one side.

No wonder Jiang Yan has a deep memory. This shopkeeper Qiao is the most handsome man she has ever seen here. Although he has a lame leg, he is still very handsome. That face is really unforgettable. .

Since she is an acquaintance, Jiang Yan can't help but be a little more curious. Isn't this shopkeeper Qiao from the bookstore?Why did he go to the county seat to be a doctor now, and he also encountered a medical trouble, thinking in his mind, Jiang Yan's footsteps had already crowded into the crowd.

"Damn lame! What kind of doctor are you? You might as well go to the clerk and sell prostitutes!"

"Come to Huo Huo, what do I do!"

"You're going too far. You..."

At the entrance of Huichun Hall, Qiao Le was wearing a very simple and plain Tsing Yi, and her high ponytail was also a little anxious and messy. The expression on her face was sullen and gloomy. Red with embarrassment, it's just that he has cultivated well, and he can't scold a single swear word with a cold face.

Pointing at the couple who were scolding him, the man was a common bunt and a rough farmer. He wanted to go up and grab Qiao Le and beat him, but he was stopped by a few apprentices from Huichun Hall. , The woman was also dressed in coarse cloth, a black and thin peasant woman, kneeling on the ground holding a child, crying hoarsely, her eyes were terrifyingly red and swollen, both of them were disheveled and disheveled.

The child in her arms was dying, her face was blue and her lips were white, her eyes were tightly closed, and if she hadn't twitched and vomited from time to time, Jiang Yan would have thought that the child had burped.

Jiang Yan is not a doctor, nor does she know medical skills, but she probably guessed that the child might have a stomach problem.

Nausea, vomiting, acid regurgitation, and belching are all symptoms of the child now. She took a closer look at the couple, who were also haggard, with thin facial features. Although the scolding was unpleasant, her voice was not loud, even It gives people a clear sense of weakness. At first glance, they have not been full for a long time, and they have luggage and a pair of shoes full of tattered mud. At first glance, in this prosperous county, they are like refugees... refugees.

Seeing Qiao Le, whose face was getting paler and paler, Jiang Yan didn't think about anything else, she restrained her mind, and walked around a few people to her wife: "Eldest sister, did this child not eat much during this time, and suddenly ate a lot of oil today? Fishy stuff? Do you often feel nauseated, occasionally vomit, and do you often have pain in your stomach?"

"Who are you! Don't make trouble!" Before the woman could speak, an old man pushed Jiang Yan away, irritably drove her aside, and then yelled at the crying lady with swollen eyes: "You Vixen, I have never received you at Huichuntang! Why didn't we send your son to see a doctor today, why didn't our hospital record it?"

Madam shed more tears, and a drop fell on the child's chest, where a small piece had already been moistened: "It's him! You'll know if you ask him, he's treating my child."

The lady's eyes were a bit complicated, but more of it was despair and pain. Qiao Le's face was also complicated. The couple were refugees who fled the famine. The crops in the fields were withered before the autumn harvest this year. In order to survive, everyone in the village fled. Now, their child was sick and had no money for treatment. Huichuntang refused to pick him up. The child was dying, and he had only one breath left. He couldn't bear it, so he prescribed some medicine in private. Who knows it's more serious now, he prescribed Wu Mingming is fine...

But the fact is right in front of him, he can't argue, no matter how much he says, he can't explain clearly.

"Don't lie, Qiao Le has only been in our hospital for a few days. He doesn't have the right to diagnose and treat patients. How could he prescribe medicine for you!"

"You have also inquired about the fraud. He is only a doctor in name, and he does not seek medical treatment except for dispensing medicine."

The old man in the brown robe jumped his feet angrily, his tone could be said to be acerbic, but his words were firm, and his high voice fell in every ear of the onlookers, making people have to believe it.

"My Huichuntang is not a day or two in the county, and it has been open for more than ten years now, and the people who come to make trouble are not once or twice, but it's good to beg that time? You really treat my Huichuntang as a soft persimmon. It's gone!"

The old man's tone was very vicious, and the people around him praised him. Most of them are people who often come to the streets and are familiar with Huichuntang. There are three medical centers in this county, so most people basically go to the hospital. People who passed by this medical center all began to ridicule and abuse the couple for a while, thinking that they were cheating.

The big guy was arguing for a while, and the peasant started struggling to beat Qiao Le in a hurry, making a mess for a while, Qiao Le did not dare to fight back, dragged his crippled leg, and let others pull and cry. The exhausted woman also struggled to collide with the old man. From the beginning to the end, no one paid attention to the dying boy who was panting on the ground.

Jiang Yan took advantage of this space to pick up the child, and saw the child's miserable appearance more clearly and intuitively. To her surprise, the child also had a lot of acne, but not many, but small red patches. The area is very similar to the smallpox in her memory, but the original body had smallpox when she was a child, so she is not worried about being infected, but other people are different, especially children.

"Brother Wu, take Xiaowuli away. This child seems to have smallpox. In order to avoid infection, all of you should go farther!" In the ears of those who were there, it was like a boulder falling into the water, not ripples, but huge splashes!A group of people around was shocked!
