Escape from the desert

Chapter 161
In the quaint and old backyard, the child has been sent to the small cubicle for isolation. Qiao Le held the fault in one hand and rolled up his sleeve in the other, and wrote down two prescriptions on the paper profusely.

"Here are the prescriptions for stomach disease adjustment and some daily precautions, and here are the prescriptions and preventive measures for smallpox. I have written them all clearly, please keep them."

After handing over the prescription, he continued: "There is no cure for stomach problems. The child is still young, so he may get better after taking care of it slowly. For smallpox, according to this prescription, rub this medicine powder on the wound where the sore is. It will be effective. It relieves itching and prevents suppuration, and after this time passes, it will heal.”

Then Qiao Le said a lot of precautions, asking them to isolate the child, and pay attention to the child's food and clothing, and do not touch those things. When the illness is cured, it must be burned immediately to avoid infecting others. Don't touch if you don't touch.

The couple were almost grateful, but their eyes were full of sadness when they looked at the prescription. It was useless to have a prescription. They had no money now, so they could only find ways to make money. The money Jiang Yan paid in advance, the couple also planned to make money and return it to her.

"Okay, I'm very happy that you guys have this idea, but don't worry, I'll pay you back when you have it. I'm in Linjiacun, Yong'an Town." Jiang Yan smiled and faced the couple who kept thanking him. She didn't plan to Regardless of this nosy business, she just happened to see someone she knew well, and the couple could offer to pay her back the money, regardless of whether they paid it back in the end, with this heart, she felt very good.

"Where did you flee from famine?" Jiang Yan asked.

The thick black man looked sluggish, and said in a difficult tone: "He's from the north. It's been a few years of drought. The wells in our village have been broken since the beginning of summer. The village has tossed around to borrow water, but it's not enough for the big guy's daily needs." , the crops in the fields are withered and withered, all of them are dead, there is no way, all our villages have moved to the south."

Jiang Yan frowned, Linfang County is not along the south, it can be said that it is still very close to the north: "How did you come to Linfang County?"

"Both my children are sick, and they are sleeping on the road. It is rare to have a full meal for a few days. Both children have stomach problems from starvation in the past few years, and the family has no money to treat them. Later, they really couldn't keep up with the large army in the village. We turned around and came to Linfang County."

"And you have a son?"

When Jiang Yan fell, the husband and wife burst into tears, and the man said in a choked voice, "I'm dead, on the way... I starved to death, and we were buried in the mountains."

Jiang Yan was stunned, unable to ask any more questions for a while, seeing the two choked with despair, she also felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, this autumn harvest, I don't know how many such people there are.

When she walked out the door, Qiao Le greeted her with a warm smile: "Thank you for today's matter, Aunt Jiang."

Jiang Yan waved her hand: "You don't have to be polite, shopkeeper Qiao, but I don't know why shopkeeper Qiao went to the county to become a doctor? The bookstore in the town is closed?"

A look of helplessness flashed in Qiao Le's eyes, and his tone was sincere: "If you provoke someone you shouldn't, and if there are some troublesome things, the bookstore will be mortgaged. When you come to Fang County to become a doctor, it's just to make a living."

Jiang Yan looked at him in surprise, his tone was flat, neither angry nor annoyed, and he was still neither humble nor overbearing, as if he accepted or didn't care.

Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Jiang Yan didn't want to ask too much. Looking at the beautiful woman with the appearance of a fairy in front of her, she was a little active. She heard from Jiang Wen that this storekeeper Qiao was a well-educated scholar. He passed the examination as a scholar. At that time, it could be said that the scenery was infinite. Later, if his leg was not cut off on the way to the examination, it would be more than enough to pass the examination. According to Jiang Wen's description, this Qiao Le's literature is more than that.

"Mr. Qiao is a scholar? Is it a self-taught medical skill?"

Qiao Le smiled generously and didn't hide it: "I'm an old scholar, not worth mentioning. If I am like this, even if I have a reputation as a scholar, it's useless. The medical skills are indeed studied by myself. Learning by practice, it is the first time I have prescribed medicine to people today, and I made Aunt Jiang laugh."

Qiao Le's tone was calm and polite. His eyes fell on Jiang Yan's face, and he was very curious about the person in front of him. Whether it was the last time we met or this time, Aunt Jiang gave him a wonderful feeling, that kind of calmness, determination and alienation His smile surprised him, just like just now, others didn't know it, but he could see it clearly.

The ordinary woman in front of her rescued the child more quickly and decisively than all of them. She did everything in an orderly manner from taking the medicine to changing the bath and then to the follow-up measures. On the surface, it was arranged by him, but in fact, she took care He took the lead and led everyone to act together, even he subconsciously arranged for her.

Jiang Yan said, "I don't think Mr. Qiao likes being a doctor very much. Why don't you go back to Linjiacun with me and be a teacher?"

Qiao Le stared blankly at Jiang Yan, thinking she was in a trance for a moment, and found her voice after a while: "What... what?"

Jiang Yan looked at that eye-catching face, smiled unabated, and said her words again. It is impossible for Jiang Wen to teach several children in Lin's family often. The learning speed of Lin Bei and Erbi is not the same, but they are both faster. After the enlightenment period, she was going to be sent to a college to study, but she really didn't see the college she wanted in Yong'an Town, and her original intention was to find a knowledgeable gentleman to teach in Linjia Village, so that the family could follow along.

I haven't looked for candidates in this area before, and now the Qiao Le in front of me is the gentleman sent to me!The literature that can be affirmed by Jiang Wen will naturally not be too low, Jiang Yan believes in this.

Qiao Le said hesitantly: "I'm just a scholar, and I took the exam several years ago. I'm afraid I won't be able to take the position. Aunt Jiang should choose someone else."

Jiang Yan smiled calmly and said: "Mr. Qiao, don't need to be humble. I have heard of Mr.'s name in the town. I don't dare to say anything else. There must be no problem in terms of learning. My children are still in the enlightenment stage. Let you educate, I am worried that you will not like it."

"Aunt Jiang was joking, it's just...it's just that my affairs are more complicated, my legs..." Qiao Le sighed, and he felt like a dream after listening to these words. He really wanted to be a scholar who taught and educated people before. , even if you can't take the exam, it's good to be a teacher.

It's just that he's limped and got a bad reputation. There is no academy in the town willing to accept him, let alone a small private school. As time goes by, he has lost his desire to be a teacher. When my aunt mentioned it, she still had some surging thoughts in her heart, what a joke...

The two walked side by side to the table in the inner courtyard. He poured Jiang Yan a cup of tea, his eyes fell on an open space, and his thoughts drifted away.
