Reborn Doctor

Chapter 10

Time flies quickly, and another month has passed in a blink of an eye.

At the end of October, the weather gradually cools down.

The colder the weather was, the less clothes the Landlord Liu's house had to change and wash. The Su family didn't have a profitable business, so they were worried about how they would spend the winter this year.

Seeing her helpless look, Kou Tong was in a dilemma, wondering if he should tell Su Shi that he had money.

At noon that day, the two of them had just finished their lunch when they heard someone knocking on the door.

Su sighed, stood up and said: "According to the days, it should be time to pay the rent again. I really hope that the person who came is not Mrs. Wangen!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a loud voice from outside the door: "Is the Kou family sister at home? It's me, your sister-in-law Wangen!"

Wang Gen's daughter-in-law's voice was really loud, and Koutong could still hear it clearly through the door.

Su opened the door, thinking about how to tell Wangen's wife that she couldn't pay the rent for the time being, but saw Wangen's wife holding a long, thin piece of pork belly and looking at herself with a smile on her face.

"Sister of the Su family, is Dr. Kou at home?" Wangen's daughter-in-law asked loudly.

Su Shi couldn't help being taken aback, this scene brought her back to four years ago.

Four years ago, when her husband Kou Junying was still on duty at the Imperial Hospital, because he often helped those who had no money for medical treatment, the patients themselves or their family members often came to thank them with gifts.

Those people usually carry the meat, or the chickens they raise at home, or the eggs laid by the chickens, and they also smile like this, and ask themselves with such joy: "Is Dr. Kou at home?"

But my husband is no longer here!And I have never told anyone that my husband is a doctor, so why would Wangen's wife come to her?
"Sister of the Su family, why are you in a daze?" Wang Gen's daughter-in-law gave Su a push: "Is Doctor Xiao Kou at home?"

Only then did Su come to her senses, and she directly ignored the word "small" in the middle of "Doctor Xiao Kou" that Wang Gen's wife said, and instead asked: "Sister-in-law Wang Gen, did you go to the wrong place! My husband's family name is Kou, but there is no Doctor Kou in our family!"

Wang Gen's daughter-in-law wanted to say more, but Kou Tong from the room came out and said, "Mother, Aunt Wang Gen is here to look for me!"

Su was puzzled: "Tong Niang, you are Doctor Kou!"

Kou Tong nodded: "Yes!"

But Wangen's daughter-in-law carried the small piece of pork belly and walked up to Kou Tong happily: "Doctor Xiao Kou, you really have a way, if it wasn't for your prescription, our big girl wouldn't know about it now." How is it! Your prescription is very good, much better than Dr. Ke's!"

When Kou Tong heard this, his eyes lit up!Big sister's illness is really cured!She couldn't help feeling elated.

Kou Tong pursed his lips and smiled: "This is also a coincidence, I just told you according to what the book said. This is also due to the good luck of Da Ya sister, so I should catch up with this coincidence. If you want to thank you, auntie, you should also thank yourself. After all, you bought the medicine, didn't you!"

"Having said that, if it wasn't for you, Doctor Xiao Kou, Da Ya's illness would definitely not be cured!" She said with a grateful look: "Please don't dislike these meats. Since I promised to buy meat to thank you, I will definitely buy it." I will do it. Although I am a vulgar person, I also know that what I say is water that is poured out, Doctor Xiao Kou, don’t think too little, you must accept it!"

"Aunt Wang Gen, why are you so polite! You can just call me Mrs. Tong as before. I really can't afford to be Doctor Xiao Kou!"

"Why can't you afford it?" Wangen's daughter-in-law bluffed her face: "Old man Ke didn't say that after taking my money, he still couldn't cure my daughter's illness, and said that my daughter was hopeless! He bluffed our family three times." The soul has gone to two souls. A person like him dares to say that he is a doctor with a shy face. Why can’t you be a doctor if you cure a big girl? You can be a doctor if you cured my daughter’s disease! Or A brilliant doctor!"

Kou Tong couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing this: "Okay, Aunt Wang Gen, if you like it, you can call it that! It's just that I absolutely can't accept this meat!"

"Why can't you accept it?" Aunt Wang Gen was upset again: "Do you dislike the lack of meat that your aunt cuts or what?"

"It's not that I think there's too little meat..."

Kou Tong wanted to explain, Su took the meat from Wang Gen's wife and said, "Tong Niang, your Aunt Wang Gen is right, since she personally delivered the meat, we have to accept it no matter what!"

Wang Gen's daughter-in-law said with a smile: "The girl from the Su family is right!"

Kou Tong looked at Mrs. Su, and said to Wang Gen's wife, "Thank you, Aunt Wang Gen!"

"Thank you! It's not worth anything!" Wang Gen's daughter-in-law squeezed Kou Tong's shoulder and said, "Look at the small and thin one, the pork belly that my aunt specially picked is fat. Let your mother burn it for you Replenish the body, when the bones are recovered, I will go to open a medical clinic, if my aunt is not feeling well, I will definitely not go to old man Ke, I will definitely come to you to see a doctor for my aunt!"

Kou Tong was happy, so he smiled and said: "Look at what Auntie said, Auntie is stronger than a cow, so there is no need to see a doctor!"

The country people are simple and honest, and they like to hear people praise her for being strong, so Wang Gen's daughter-in-law was very happy when she heard Kou Tong's words: "Doctor Xiao Kou is sweet! Well, girl from the Su family, I will go back first if I have nothing to do! Don't forget to burn the meat." Give it to Dr. Kou!"

The last few words were addressed to Mrs. Su!

Su naturally agreed, and then personally sent her out.

Although Wangen's daughter-in-law left, Kou Tong was still immersed in the surprise she just brought.

She used her knowledge of medicines to cure other people's diseases again.And it is the right medicine, cured!
God!What a delight!Kou Tong happily stood up for a while, sat down for a while, and didn't know what to do!
Aunt Wangen praised me for my excellent medical skills just now, and also called me "Doctor Xiaokou". I am a doctor, I am a doctor, and I have become a doctor!

Kou Tong happily and foolishly pulled Shi Shi, and told Su Shi the reason of the matter incoherently. Su Shi was naturally surprised and happy when he heard it, and she couldn't help clasping her hands together: "This is really God's blessing!"

Then he said: "This is a happy event, I have to tell your father!" Then he hurried into the house.

Kou Tong knew that the Su family had gone to offer incense to his father Kou Junying at this time.

She looked at her mother's back happily, smiled, and couldn't help but shed tears!

Before, I studied medical books hard just to be able to talk to Zheng Shixiu.As long as Zheng Shixiu talks to her, she will be excited for several days, because she always feels that she sees hope, Zheng Shixiu will see her goodness one day, and will like her.

Later, she found that these books introducing the rationality of herbal medicine were very interesting. She buried herself in the herbal medicine and books, forgot to sleep and eat, and forgot everything.

Not only to please Zheng Shixiu, but also because I am really interested. Once I read books and identify herbs, I can forget the time and the loneliness all night long.

However, those are not worth the joy of today!

It was only now that she really realized the benefits of studying medicine in the first place!Use what you know to help others, to heal their illnesses, and what's more, to save their lives.This is the most enjoyable thing in the world!

She, Kou Tong, is a doctor from today!She is a doctor who saves lives and heals the wounded!She will use her hard work to learn medical skills, use medical skills to help others, and use medical skills to change her own destiny!
She was so excited that she ran indoors, looked at the neatly stacked medical books on the bedside, and stroked them one by one with her hands. These were her hopes!
Although reading medical books is a bit boring, and she doesn't want to study herbal medicine as interesting, but after today's incident, she no longer finds it boring.She will definitely study these books well, and one day, she will become a real doctor like her father.

From this day on, apart from eating and sleeping, Kou Tong dealt with these medical books all day long.

The weather was getting colder every day, and time just slipped by while Kou Tong was studying medical books hard!
The end of the year is approaching in a blink of an eye, and every household is busy. Starting from the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, offering sacrifices to the Kitchen God, cleaning the courtyard, and making New Year’s goods, even the Su family became two hairpins to buy the New Year’s goods. She made a new cotton coat for herself.

The busiest place is the Landlord Liu's house in front of Kou Tong's house!
Landlord Liu’s family has a big business, and before the end of the year, tenants will flock to pay Landlord Liu the land rent, give him gifts, and kowtow to pay New Year’s greetings to Landlord Liu.

Landlord Liu is a hands-off shopkeeper. He doesn't care about big things and small things.

All these piles, one after another, were all taken care of by Mrs. Liu, the landlady's mother-in-law.

This year is so busy, Mrs. Liu fell ill!

In front of Liu’s house was the dregs of medicine that Mrs. Liu had eaten. Kou Tong accidentally saw it, and rubbed the dregs of the medicine on the ground with his foot. The boiled medicine was broken, but some of them were recognized by Kou Tong. Some of the medicines on the prescription had a lingering smell, and Kou Tong could roughly tell that Mrs. Liu was suffering from typhoid fever.

Now the weather is getting colder every day, and the Liu family welcomes and sends more people every day, and it is not uncommon for Mrs. Liu to catch a cold accidentally.Therefore, Kou Tong never took this matter to heart.

On the day of the 28th year of the year, there were sporadic snowfalls in the sky.

Mrs. Su hurriedly added clothes to Kou Tong, and took out the newly bought charcoal to burn on it. The mother and daughter read a book and the other did needlework. The thick curtain blocked the severe cold outside, so that they did not feel the cold. .

After the weather turned cold, under Kou Tong's request, the Su family no longer helped people wash clothes, but took some small jobs from the ready-to-wear shops on the street to do.

The cold wind was blowing outside, but the interior was as warm as spring. Seeing that Kou Tong had grown taller than before, Mrs. Su felt happy and anxious at the same time.

The happy thing is that her daughter has grown up, and the anxious thing is that Kou Tong will be thirteen in the new year, at ten 34 he can discuss marriage, and at ten 56 he can get married.However, the husband is gone now, and although the daughter has a marriage contract, who can explain it?
Kou Tong watched his mother doing embroidery stitch by stitch, but felt very warm in his heart.

In the previous years, she would always be ridiculed by her sister-in-law, saying that she had no dowry and no income.The mother-in-law will also blame her for being clumsy, not knowing how to housekeeper, not knowing how to read account books, let alone helping her socialize with those official wives.

She was complained by her mother-in-law, but she was very wronged in her heart. Her mother-in-law never let her do these things, always said that she couldn't do it well, and blamed her for being lazy. She really had nowhere to complain and complain.

But now, there is no other people's eyes, no other people's cynicism.She is doing what she likes, and more importantly, her mother is by her side.Kou Tong felt that this was the most comfortable year in her two lifetimes combined.

At this moment, a sudden knock on the door was heard, and the sound of "bang bang bang" suddenly broke the warmth of the room.
