Fleeing from famine and farming: I made a fortune by relying on medical skills

Chapter 16 Planning to Build a House
"Later, I'll discuss with the village chief about what Susuti's ideas were just now.

Tomorrow, except for the youngest son, who will go to town, the old woman will stay at home. Everyone, including me, will go to the mountains to gather herbs.

After returning from the first batch of medicines, some of them stayed behind to process the medicinal materials at home, and the rest continued to go up the mountain to collect medicines. "After the day was busy, Huang Yaozi was very happy and arranged the work of the head of the family, Ming'er.

.

"The things are for the Huang's family. Come and sit down. Your mother and I have something to talk to you about." Seeing his son coming out of the backyard after delivering things to the Huang's family, Village Chief Zhuang waved to Zhuang Xiaohe, motioning him to sit down.

"Father, do you have something to tell me." Zhuang Xiaohe asked.

"Xiaohe, you are 16 years old this year, and you are not too young. Mother sees that there are several girls from the Huang family who live in the backyard of our house who are about the same age as you.

Take advantage of the closeness and get the moon first, which one do you like, get in touch with each other, wait for the relationship to develop, and when you are older, mother will ask the matchmaker to come and propose marriage for you. "Zhuang Liu just heard that he was the head of the family and asked his youngest son to contact a girl from the Huang family to see if he could marry a girl from the Huang family to be his daughter-in-law. At first, Zhuang Liu didn't agree.

He felt that the Huang family had fled from the famine. They had no relatives or reasons in their village. They had no house, land, or money. They asked their youngest son to marry a girl from the Huang family, for fear of dragging his youngest son down.

But according to the head of the family, the Huang family is a family of medicine, and now there are two doctors in the family, and his grandchildren can also teach two or three doctors.

The granddaughters all know medical science and pharmacology, and she immediately didn't dislike the daughter of the Huang family marrying into their family. Instead, she asked her son to take the initiative to see if she could ask a girl from the Huang family to come back and be her daughter-in-law.

The Huang family is a family of medicine, and there are two doctors in the family. In the future, two or three doctors can be sent out as teachers. Fleeing from famine, fleeing from disaster, and having no money are nothing.

According to their family, there are several doctors, and it is easy to make money to support the family in the future.

In the future, the in-laws will be doctors, and it will be convenient for them to see a doctor or something without saying that they look good.

If my youngest son marries a girl from the Huang family and learns some medical skills from the Huang family in the future, it will be a matter of glory to the ancestors. When the time comes, the medical skills will be passed on, and if his children and grandchildren live up to the spirit, the younger generations will not be short of food and drink.

"Mom, I haven't looked at the girls of the Huang family carefully. How can we talk about what I like or not." Zhuang Xiaohe blushed when he saw the important event in his life, and he dared not look at his parents and said .

"Mother is not letting you get the moon and cultivate first."

"Old Doctor Huang, why are you here? Sit down quickly, Xiaohe, go and make tea for Doctor Huang first! Then wash some melons and fruits and bring them up." Seeing Old Doctor Huang approaching, Village Chief Zhuang quickly pushed himself Daughter-in-law, let her stop talking.

Their family is now planning to hit the girl from the Huang family. Only their family can know about this matter. Let the Huang family know, and the Huang family lives in their backyard. Don't let the Huang family think that the purpose of letting them live in their backyard is to beat them The idea of ​​the granddaughter of the family, the two families will not be able to get along with each other at that time, and it will be so embarrassing to meet.

"Don't be so troublesome. I'm here today to discuss something with you, Village Chief Zhuang. I'll leave after I finish." Huang Yaozi pressed Zhuang Xiaohe to stop busy work.

"Old Doctor Huang, if you have anything to do, just tell me, as long as I can do it, I will do it for you." Village Chief Zhuang didn't say enough.

"The first thing? I want Village Chief Zhuang to help our family publicize the fact that there are two doctors in my family.

See if there are any patients who come to us for medical treatment, so as to make some money and solve life problems.

However, our father and son go out for follow-up, and the fee is not expensive, only [-] Wen for a trip. "Huang Yaozi said.

"It's easy to talk about. Just tell me.

Doctor Huang's outpatient fee is not expensive, and it is very fair. Presumably, if someone in the nearby ten miles or eight villages is sick, they will invite you father and son to go out for follow-up. Seeing that old doctor Huang said this, Village Chief Zhuang patted himself on the chest to assure him.

Going out to see a doctor is only charged [-] yuan, which is much cheaper than the consultation fee of going out to the pharmacy in the town. Letting the Huang family settle in their village not only benefits their village, but also the villagers in the nearby ten miles and eight villages. up.

"The second thing is to build a house.

Village head Zhuang also knew that our family had escaped from the famine and had no money or food. We should have a place to stay, so let's muddle through.

Both my wife and I feel that a golden nest and a silver nest are not as good as our own kennels. Only living in our own homes is the most comfortable.

I just want the village to call some villagers to build a house for our family, to build that kind of earth-cultivated thatched-roof house that only requires effort and does not cost a penny.

But our family does not include food and drink for those who build the house.

Instead, the person who came to my house to build a house this time, our family will come to see a doctor three times for free in the future for the villagers who built a house in my house, and also pack medicinal materials.

Village head Zhuang, let's see if this will work. "Huang Yaozi slowly said to the village chief.

"The second thing should be fine.

After all, no one can guarantee that they will not get sick. With a little effort, there will be three chances to see a doctor. Presumably many villagers are still willing to do it.

My family, Dahe and Xiaohe can all contribute.

Now in the middle and late August, there is still some time before the winter. If there are many people, the house can be built before the winter. Village head Zhuang didn't think much about it, and readily agreed to the second thing Huang Yaozi proposed.

It doesn't take much time and effort to build an earth-embryo house, and you can earn a doctor's medical supplies for three medical treatments. Villagers who know how to settle accounts must know how to do it.

"That's all right, the village chief Laozhuang has two things to do. Excuse me, I'm leaving." Huang Yaozi said goodbye to village chief Zhuang after finishing talking, and bowed his hands to village chief Zhuang before leaving.

"Xiaohe, go to your sister-in-law's natal house and ask your brother to come back and build a house for Dr. Huang's house.

In the morning I will finish the settlement of the Huang family, and start building the house in the afternoon. "

"Xiaohe, let's go to your grandpa's house and ask your two uncles to come and build a house for the Huang family." For such a good thing, Mrs. Zhuang Liu had to bring her own family.

"I'll go out and talk to the villagers about this matter from door to door, and see if the villagers are willing. It doesn't matter if they don't want to. With the conditions proposed by the Huang family, I'm afraid there will be no shortage of people to build houses for the Huang family," Village Chief Zhuang said. , then got up and walked out.

On the second day, Huang Bai got up early, carrying a basket on his back, and went to the town with Village Chief Zhuang to handle the settlement of their family.

The rest of the Huang family had enough to eat and drink, ready to go up the mountain to collect herbs.

Before leaving for work, the lazy second uncle of the Huang family had another incident and didn't want to go to work.
