Poison pet military doctor prince concubine

Chapter 24
After several days of traveling day and night, Qiao Qingdai finally completed most of the itinerary.Next, she had to arrive at Cold Dang Mountain on this day in the middle of February to pick off the ripe snow berries.

Due to the unplanned itinerary for this day, Qiao Qingdai was unable to reach the next town before dark, and the insides of her legs had already been worn out, and she could even feel that flesh and blood had stained her underwear.Most likely she also had chilblains, and she always felt burning pain.Fortunately, there is no unparalleled road, and when it was getting dark, she saw a few lights at the end of the forest.

Without even thinking about it, she hit the horse and said, "Knock, click!" and knocked on the door closest to her.

It took a long time before I heard someone ask who it was.

At the same time, the door came, an old man in a ragged jacket.

"Who is this young man looking for?"

"Old man, I'm passing by here, can I make it easy at night?" Qiao Qingdai asked.

The old man looked behind her and didn't see anyone else.Seeing that she was dressed unusually, she must also be a child of a rich family.So he asked her to tie the horse to the old tree at the door and let her in.

After the old man entered the room, Qiao Qingdai realized that the old man's legs were sick and he walked tremblingly.

"Old man, who is it?" someone asked inside.

"A young master passed by and wanted to stay overnight at our house. Just rest and I'll do it."

The old man led her to the side room, let her rest for a while, and he went to boil water for her.

"What are you doing up! It's very cold."

Qiao Qingdai didn't hear the old lady's answer.

Not long after, Qiao Qingdai saw the old woman, she came over with hot dishes and rice, "You're hungry, eat something quickly, the peasants are simple, don't dislike them."

"Hey, you go and rest, I'll do it myself." Qiao Qingdai let her rest while thanking her.

After a while, the old man came over and told her that the water was ready, let her go to the kitchen to pick it up after eating, put the bowls and chopsticks on the stove, and the old woman will clean up in the morning.

After finishing her meal, Qiao Qingdai went to the kitchen to wash a few bowls, fetched water, wiped it carelessly, took some medicine and then rested.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"Cough~cough~cough."

In the middle of the night, a burst of coughing woke Qiao Qingdai from her sleep.

The cough became louder and louder, and Qiao Qingdai could feel the patient's pain from a long distance away.

As a doctor, she could tell that the coughing sound came from a girl, probably because her throat was very itchy, but it seemed that something was always stuck in her throat, and she couldn't cough it all out at once, she could only retch with all her might.

However, the truth was more serious than what Qiao Qingdai had guessed. She got up and knocked on the door, saying that she knew some medical skills, but the person inside hesitated and opened the door.

It was indeed a girl, curled up on a dilapidated small wooden bed, and the two old men moved her to their own house to take care of the girl.

Qiao Qingdai noticed that the girl's face was flushed at this moment, and her hands kept pressing against her throat.

The old woman stroked her stomach with a worried expression.

Only then did she realize that the girl must still have internal spasms.A slight cough involved the muscles in her stomach, and she dared not move because of the pain.

Qiao Qingdai stepped forward, stroked her back, and kept patting her gently for a long while, girl, before she slowly relaxed.It wasn't until she calmed down that Qiao Qingdai began to feel her pulse.

"Is there a number of two people with this disease?"

"Hey..." Both old people lowered their heads.

This is tuberculosis, and it is also an extremely difficult disease in this era.

"Do you two know this disease is contagious?" Qiao Qingdai asked again.

The two still bowed their heads and did not speak.

"Just wait!" Qiao Qingdai went out after speaking.The two old men were left looking at each other.

After a while, Qiao Qingdai came in again with her silver needle bag and a prescription in her hand.

"I'll use acupuncture to control it for one night. This is the prescription. I can go to the pharmacy to get the medicine tomorrow and decoct it for her. It's too late tonight. Let's send her to my room tomorrow morning!"

The two old men knew they were saved as soon as they heard it, so they hurriedly stood up to express their thanks and kowtowed desperately.Qiao Qingdai quickly pulled the people up one by one, let them support the child, and gave the needle.

"Niu'er is finally saved." The old woman was very happy holding the child.

"Old lady, is the one who went into the room to treat the girl just now the same person as the one I led into the third room?" the old man asked suspiciously.

"I'm thinking about it too. I see that the clothes are still the same."

Qiao Qingdai didn't know that she had removed the pastel on her face, revealing her real face. At this time, she had already gone to meet Zhou Gong, she was really sleepy.
