Chapter 20
Seeing Shi Hua nodding, Xie Ling felt relieved. Mrs. Lin's wife named dozens of medicinal materials, and he could probably pronounce more than half of them correctly. This was already very good, compared to the word recognition of the waiter they hired before. Mrs. Lin couldn't help but be surprised that there was more. She asked Xie Ling if she had gone to school or read a book.
Xie Ling shook her head and simply replied: "My father was a scholar once and he taught me many words." He said, then looked at Shi Hua and added, "My sister also taught me a lot."
Both siblings were literate and knew a lot, which surprised Madam Lin and Lin Hanshui even more. Madam Lin immediately made up her mind, and when Dr. Lin came back from his medical visit, she told him the matter and asked him what he meant. how.
After hearing this, Old Doctor Lin said happily: "That's just right. Isn't the hospital short of manpower? I think these two children are very obedient and have nowhere to go. It would be a good thing to keep them."
He said, and then said to Shi Hua: "In that case, you can stay in the hospital and don't have to worry about food and clothing. As for the wages, it will be the same as the old guys, the same amount every month."
Hearing this, Shi Hua waved his hands repeatedly and said: "There is no need for wages. When I talked about this, I originally wanted to repay the old gentleman. We, my sister and my brother, have been eating and drinking for free in the hospital for so long. How can we get anything else?" Are you shameless enough to ask for wages?¡±
Old Doctor Lin burst out laughing. He fell in love with these two dolls more and more. He said: "How can there be any reason for you to work for nothing? There is no such thing in the world. It's not like you wrote a deed of betrayal to me and you still don't have to do things for free." How can we feel at ease with wages?"
Mrs. Lin¡¯s wife also advised: ¡°My former clerks also gave me this. They didn¡¯t know as much as you. This is what you deserve. Don¡¯t be stupid.¡±
The two of them persuaded her for a while, and then Shi Hua agreed. She didn't have to do any work for the time being until her illness was completely cured. She would wait until a few days later. Although Xie Ling was small, her hands and feet were quick, so Dr. Lin made arrangements first. He and Lin Hanshui learned to recognize medicinal materials and did chores like making medicine.
Before entering the cold winter, Shi Hua and Xie Ling finally settled down in the hospital. At least for a short time, they no longer had to wander around.
The weather was getting colder and colder, until one day when she woke up and a thin layer of ice formed on the eaves, Shi Hua was shocked to realize that it was already the depth of winter.
Even so, the number of doctor Lin's visits did not decrease. By this time, there were more and more patients. Lin Hanshui didn't trust him to go out alone, so he often accompanied him, helping him carry boxes and hold umbrellas to avoid anything happening on the way. Accident.
In this way, most of the time during the day, Lin Hanshui accompanied Old Doctor Lin on medical visits, while Shi Hua and Xie Ling guarded the hospital. .
Those people had never seen the two of them at first, and seeing that they were too young, they were suspicious of not being able to get the medicine. They would take the medicine and then leave. However, as time went by, Shi Hua was very careful and thoughtful when taking the medicine, and never missed it. , this situation gradually became less and less.
At night, Shi Hua took Xie Ling to sit behind the counter, lit a lamp, and taught him how to read with a medicine book. Xie Ling learned quickly. After reading it several times, he had all the words in his mind. , no matter when Shi Hua randomly checked, he never missed it.
Shi Hua was both happy and worried at the same time. Logically speaking, after this year, Xie Ling will be nine years old. A child of this age should go to school for enlightenment. What's more, he is so talented. Shouldn't be delayed.
But where does the money come from? this is a big problem.
Since Shi Hua came up with the idea, she has been thinking about this matter all day long when she has nothing to do. How can she make money? She was thinking about it while eating and thinking about it while sleeping. As long as she had free time, her mind never stopped.
Lin Hanshui and Xie Ling were both aware of it. They watched Shi Hua holding his chopsticks in the empty bowl for a long time and then stuffing it into his mouth carelessly. They couldn't help but look at each other.
Lin Hanshui indicated with his eyes: What's wrong with her?
Xie Ling looked at Shi Hua and shook her head: I don¡¯t know.
In the afternoon, it started to snow lightly outside. Lin Hanshui took an umbrella and went to pick up Dr. Lin. Seeing that the weather was not good, Xie Ling followed him.
When they came back, it was already evening, night was falling, and the light snow had not stopped. The three of them entered the lobby. Shi Hua took a cloth and wiped the snow water for them. Seeing that Lin Hanshui and Xie Ling had some mud on their bodies, she asked a few questions.
Lin Hanshui said in shock: "The bridge outside the city was too slippery. It was covered with ice and it was snowing. Grandpa almost lost his footing and slipped. Fortunately, Xie Ling and I were quick and caught it."
As he said this, he asked Mr. Lin again:He advised: "Grandpa, the weather has been bad these days. Don't go to the clinic for now. Wait until the weather clears up. If you accidentally fall, you will be in trouble."
Old doctor Lin agreed and said, "I won't go tomorrow, I won't go."
Lin Hanshui was helpless. Although Dr. Lin seemed to have agreed, if a patient's family came to ask for help tomorrow, he would still carry the medicine box and go out. Only their medical clinic would still visit in such bad weather. , the consultation fee has not changed. If it were changed to the one in the east of the city, don't even think about calling the doctor out without paying three or four times the price.
Everyone knew about this, so they all came to their Xuanhutang. Only when Dr. Lin was visiting did the patients go to the medical clinic in the east of the city.
Although Lin Hanshui was helpless, he had no choice. This was how his father had been treating people for decades, and he couldn't change it.
While they were talking, Xie Ling tugged on Shi Hua's sleeve and took her to the backyard. Shi Hua asked doubtfully, "What's the matter with being so mysterious?"
Xie Ling smiled, took out something from his arms as if offering a treasure, and said, "Look, what is this?"
Shi Hua took a look under the dim light and said in surprise: "Plum blossoms?"
Xie Ling was very happy and handed over the plum blossom and said: "It seems to be a white plum blossom. It was the first time I saw it and I thought it was very beautiful. I picked one specially to bring it back to you. It was originally more beautiful, but unfortunately it was crushed by clothes on the way. Get some petals.¡±
Shi Hua looked at the cluster of white plum blossoms in full bloom and took them. The white petals were slightly pink, like a woman's thin application of rouge. The stamens and flowers appear a little translucent under the warm yellow light, with some snow water on them, reflecting the fine light. They are very beautiful, like a shy and timid beauty with light makeup.
Shi Hua was fascinated. When Xie Ling saw that she didn't say anything and was just looking at the plum blossoms, she couldn't help but ask, "Do you like it?"
Shi Hua came back to her senses and said with a smile: "It looks good, I like it."
She looked around, picked up a cracked jar from under the window, poured out the snow water inside, washed it carefully, filled it with some water, inserted the plum blossoms into it, and placed it on the table in the lobby.
When Lin Hanshui saw it, he smiled and praised: "This plum blossom is beautiful. Did Xie Ling pick it?"
Shi Hua nodded, and Lin Hanshui said not too surprised: "I saw him diving into the forest before. It turned out that he went to pick flowers on purpose."
Shi Hua looked at the plum blossoms, and some thoughts flashed through her mind. At night, she asked Xie Ling, "Where does this plum blossom tree grow?"
Xie Ling just thought she liked it and replied: "After leaving the city, walk down the river. Not far away is a wooden bridge. After crossing the bridge, turn a corner and there is a small hill. Plum trees grow on it, and there are several The plants look particularly beautiful when they grow together."
Shi Hua nodded and said, "I understand."
The next morning, before daylight, Shi Hua got up. She lay on the window edge and looked outside. The light snow had stopped, with only a few scattered flakes falling. She put on her clothes and gently opened the door and went out. , did not alarm anyone.
Next door was the house where Xie Ling and Lin Hanshui lived. There was no movement inside. She thought she hadn't woken up yet. Shi Hua took a breath of white air into her palms. After standing up for a while, she felt that her fingers were almost stiff.
She took an umbrella from the wall and an empty bamboo basket, put it on her back, lit up the lantern, opened the back door and walked out.
There was a small alley outside. It had just snowed lightly. There was a thin layer of white snow on the ground, which was reflected in the pale orange light of the lantern. She walked out carefully holding the lantern, and the soles of her shoes made a crunching sound on the snow.
The remaining snow and ice could slip if you were not careful. The sky was still dark and it was not bright yet. Shi Hua took advantage of the light of the lantern and walked out of the city. Soon she saw what Xie Ling said I walked along the river for half an hour before I saw the wooden bridge.
The wooden bridge is only as wide as an adult's arm. It is covered with ice and snow, and the river is flowing underneath. If you accidentally fall into the river, you may freeze to death.
Shi Hua gritted his teeth and took out a small pickaxe from the bamboo basket on his back. He squatted down and smashed the ice on the bridge. He swept it away along with the remaining snow and made a splashing sound when it fell into the river.
After making sure that everything was clean, she tentatively stepped onto the wooden bridge and stamped her feet vigorously. If there was no problem, she carefully moved over step by step.
After crossing the bridge, she breathed a sigh of relief, put the pickaxe into the basket, picked up the lantern and walked forward. The weather was too cold, and the cold wind picked up scattered light snow and poured it into her neck. Shi Hua was extremely cold. , only by shrinking your neck can you retain some heat.
The fingers holding the lantern were frozen and her skin was red. She leaned her hand to her side, trying to block some of the cold wind, and then she took a step forward and walked forward.
Following the route Xie Ling told, Shi Hua quickly found the plum blossom trees. They were hidden behind the mountain, like shy beauties, half-peeping out their faces.
The plum blossoms bloomed very brightly, and the branches were covered with crystal ice and snow. They were so beautiful. Shi Hua looked up and then put down the bamboo basket and hung the lantern on the tree. Then she held her hands and breathed heavily, trying to warm her up. Stiff fingers, so that they can move again. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)The fingers holding the lantern were frozen and her skin was red.
