After crossing, I look forward to the three stepmothers leaving the singles every day

Chapter 88
Hong Liqiang made a careful estimate and said, "As for the deposit, you have to give me five taels of silver, and the rest can be made up after the completion of the project."

Qiu Ju and Chunmei's mouths widened instantly, and they looked at him in disbelief: "...why is it so expensive?"

Five taels of silver could buy a donkey or a mule, and there was still plenty left.

So, they can't understand.

"The inferior wood can be cheaper." Hong Liqiang glanced at the two of them.

"It's not necessary." Nan Xing directly pulled out five taels of silver and gave it to him: "Just use the best wood, when can it be delivered?"

Hong Liqiang was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect that she would give the money so readily, and thought she was going to lower the price.

After receiving the money, he said with a smile: "Such a big car is carefully crafted. If you rush quickly, it will take half a month to finish. If you are in a hurry, I can rush to work overnight , it will only take about ten days, but in terms of wages, an extra two hundred Wen will be added.”

"That's fair." Nan Xing nodded: "But we're not in a hurry, we'll come back to pick up the goods in half a month."

After making an appointment with him, Nan Xing and the others went to meet Lu Jingyou, but when they arrived at the agreed place, they waited for a long time, but they still haven't seen them come back.

"Little lady, they won't forget us, right?" Qiu Ju asked with a flat mouth.

"What are you talking about? How could Little Doctor Lu be such a person?" Chunmei glared at her.

Qiu Ju muttered and looked at Nan Xing, she didn't mean that in her heart, she was just talking casually.

Nan Xing could only smile: "Perhaps the patient's condition is more complicated, so it will take a lot of time. Let's wait."

They chatted boredly for a while, and when it was time to eat, Qiu Ju and Chunmei swallowed again involuntarily.

"Little lady, the meal at noon was delicious. I wish I could eat like this every day." Qiu Ju smiled while holding her little head.

"Eating like this every day, don't you get tired of it?" Nan Xing glanced at her and said with a smile, "If you eat like this, sooner or later you will become fat like a pig."

"...will it?" Qiu Ju was taken aback for a moment, and then looked at Nan Xing with a smile: "Didn't you say that I am still growing?"

"Yes, we are still growing." Chunmei licked her mouth and said, "I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid."

She is also a little glutton, even if she is fat enough to become a pig, she still wants to eat.

"Then I'll bounce around to digest food at night..."

"It's, it's..."

The two of them quickly reached a consensus.

When it comes to food, the three seem to have something in common.

Chunmei looked up again and asked, "Little lady, where did you buy that fish?"

"That's right, we didn't see you go out to buy..." Qiu Ju also remembered, feeling surprised.

Gong Town is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and the only river is very shallow. Many villagers have also tried to catch fish in the water, but the harvest is very little.

For people like them in the backcountry, it is rare to be able to eat fish. Unless you go to a restaurant, it is very difficult.

That's why everyone's eyes widened when they saw Wang Yuxian bringing up a plate of fish today.

"...Good luck, I caught it early in the morning." Nan Xing said vaguely. In order to get this fish, she begged the white-haired old man for a long time.

Of course, the white-haired old man didn't help her in vain, not only because of the sweet soup she gave, but also because of the fact that she recently made a pair of lovers.

At this moment, Lu Jingyou finally rushed back with Mo Xi, his face was full of exhaustion.

"How is the patient now? Are you okay?" Nan Xing asked softly.

Lu Jingyou shook his head: "I have to run again tomorrow."

"So serious?" Nan Xing was surprised.

"Eating unclean food, diarrhea continued, and the patient's health is not very good, and now he is very depressed. I just gave him an injection, which temporarily stopped the abdominal pain and diarrhea, and prescribed a prescription to keep the medicine. Tomorrow morning I will Go and have a look, if it gets better tomorrow, it shouldn't be a big problem." Lu Jingyou frowned.

It's a good thing he came over today with nothing to do, otherwise the patient might be gone at night.

Nan Xing didn't continue to ask, because she knew in her heart that the diarrhea would not stop, and if it got serious, it would kill people.

In this era, the level of medical care is so backward, if ten people encounter this kind of situation, seven or eight may die, and perhaps only two can recover.

One may be because of good luck, relying on my own strong body to carry it, and slowly survived.Another possibility is that if you meet a doctor like Lu Jingyou who is skilled in medical treatment and has a benevolent heart, you will gradually get better if you take the right medicine.

I don't know why this Lu Jingyou came to settle down in their remote place.

However, this is also the great blessing of Gongzhen, otherwise, like that person, I am afraid that he would not be able to survive long ago.

She saw a bag full of stuff next to Lu Jingyou, and she was curious for a moment, so she asked with a smile, "What is this?"

"Sweet potatoes, their family grows it themselves." Mo Xi, who was sitting outside driving the car, was bored for a while, so he interrupted with a smile and explained: "The patient's family is poor, and they really can't afford so much medical expenses. Our son is kind, It’s really not good to see death without help, so they asked them to use the things grown at home to pay for the medical expenses.”

Hearing what he said, Nan Xing pursed his lips and smiled: "I thought your young master was a saint and wouldn't take money from them."

"Little lady, you're joking." Mo Xi said a little unwillingly, "Who can bear it in the long run?"

Lu Jingyou also gave her a blank look: "Good people also have to eat, we are not gods."

Nan Xing was taken aback. If it was her, she wouldn't be able to give doctors and medicines all the time.

What's more, no one's money comes from the wind.

Even if you are sitting on the mountain of gold and silver, you can't afford to give alms like this.

So, she smiled: "Don't start a fire tonight, and come to our house for dinner tonight."

"Okay." Lu Jingyou was not polite at all, he didn't plan to go back to eat with Mo Xi tonight.

But before going back to their home, Lu Jingyou first asked Mo Xi to drive the donkey cart to the house that their family was still building.

At this time, Liu Dahai, the village head, was still supervising the work very seriously. He didn't recognize them until the donkey cart was about to stop.

"Hey, why did you come together?" Village head Liu Dahai was surprised when he saw Nan Xing, Qiu Ju and Chun Mei get off the donkey cart.

"Come back from the town, go the same way, and come to see their house by the way." Nan Xing went around and asked, "When will it be built?"

Village head Liu Dahai glanced at Lu Jingyou who was standing next to him, and thought to himself that the master hasn't spoken yet, so why did you help them speak?
However, he didn't hesitate, and said with a smile: "Hurry up, hurry up, if you hurry up, the project will be completed in three or four days."

Because the building is a stone house, and the foundation needs to be dug, and it occupies a relatively large area, it takes a lot of time.

If it is like the house they live in, straw and soil are mixed together and they are built.

Or his house is well built, just like a small Zhuangzi.
