    You can search "Pastoral Medical Concubine: Peasant Girl Skillfully Takes the House" in Baidu to find the latest chapter!

    ¡°Why don¡¯t we go to the village chief and ask him to borrow an oxcart? Let¡¯s take a detour to the city. We can¡¯t find a doctor, so we can hire a midwife!¡±

    A middle-aged woman walked out of the room. Her hands were covered in blood and she looked equally panicked.

    "Ah Shan, Ni'er still can't give birth. You, you have to be prepared"

    Ah Shan also knows what preparations to make.

    ¡°Nier!¡± He wailed desperately like a trapped animal. He wanted to go into the house to see his wife, but was stopped by a middle-aged man.

    "What's the use of going in? Only by finding the midwife can we save her life. Come with me!"

    The father and son pulled each other out and were startled by the oncoming figure.

    Father Ashan looked at it carefully and asked warily, "You are not from the village! Who are you?"

    "Mr. Zhong, your family needs help!" It was a low and hoarse voice that spoke. I couldn't identify the man or woman, but he looked very thin and slender.

    A man of unknown origin claiming to be a doctor, with his face covered in mud and unable to see his true appearance, suddenly appeared in their poor Shangba village, and he looked really weird in every aspect.

    Ashan¡¯s father didn¡¯t want to believe such a stranger, but Ashan had already regarded the mysterious doctor as a life-saving straw.

    "You are a doctor, that's great. My wife is having a difficult delivery. Come with me to see her!"

    "Okay." The mysterious doctor agreed and followed Ah Shan into the house.

    Ashan dad had no choice but to swallow the rejection.

    Although the mysterious doctor is weird, surprisingly, he actually has some skills.

    "I don't know how the doctor did it. He touched Ni'er's belly and the fetus slipped into the birth canal, and it didn't take long for the baby to be born smoothly.

    He is still a big fat boy, and both mother and child are safe, which immediately makes the family feel joyful.

    Father Ashan knew that he had met a noble person, and his attitude changed completely. He quickly took out the good things from his family to entertain the mysterious doctor, and also gave him a big red envelope.

    The mysterious doctor refused, his voice full of fatigue, "It is my duty to save people, so there is no need to be so polite.

    I really want to ask my brother for a favor.

    I fell into the water with my brother and he was slightly injured. Can you stay at my brother¡¯s house?  "

    When Ashan¡¯s father heard this, he quickly said, "Oh, falling into the water is a big deal. Where is the person? Ashan, come and see with me."

    Those who live by the Qinghe River will see people floating down from the river every year.

    Most of them have drowned, but some are lucky enough to survive. They usually provide help when they can.

    Lin Xuanjiu took Ah Shan and his son to the riverside where Xie Dongxiang was hiding.

    Taking advantage of the darkness, we moved him back to the village.

    The Ashan family was generous enough to provide a room for the two of them to stay overnight.

    After going through many difficulties and dangers, after one day and two nights, Lin Xuanjiu was finally able to rest in a covered room again.

    She was also so tired that she almost fell unconscious on the bed.

    When he opened his eyes again, it was still dark. After all, it was a strange place. There was a seriously injured Xie Dongxiang beside him. Lin Xuanjiu did not dare to sleep too deeply.

    She checked Xie Dongxiang¡¯s injuries first, and her heart suddenly tightened.

    The thing she was most worried about happened - Xie Dongxiang developed a low fever.

    Not surprisingly, with such a huge trauma, he drifted in the river for a day and a night, and it was inevitable that he would touch the water.

    Traumatic infection and high fever caused by inflammation can be fatal.

    Lin Xuanjiu went out to find Ashan¡¯s family and asked, ¡°Where can I buy medicinal materials near here?¡±

    After landing yesterday, she looked around and found only thistle, which was enough to stop the bleeding. It was far from enough to get anti-inflammatory medicine, so she took the risk to contact the local residents.

    But now Xie Dongxiang's injury has worsened, and if he continues, he will die.

    Lin Xuanjiu could no longer care about anything else. Even if his identity might be exposed, he had to buy medicine!

    Hearing this, Ashan was a little confused, "Our village originally only had to cross a river to go to the city, but the heavy rain the day before yesterday destroyed the bridge."

    "Is there any other way? It doesn't matter if we take a few more detours."

    "Yes, there is, but the road is quite far. It takes more than three hours to walk."

    It is indeed far away, but Lin Xuanjiu still insists, "I want to go! Brother Ah Shan, please take me there."

    Father Ashan walked out and said, "I'll go to the village chief and borrow an ox cart. It will make traveling faster."

    Lin Xuan thanked them for a long time, and soon Ashan dad came back after borrowing a bullock cart., Ashan rushed the car and took her away.

    The scenery in Datong is very different from that in Daye. It mainly comes from large wastelands.

    There are many locations with good water and soil that can be used to cultivate a lot of fertile land, but they are all idle.

    In Daye, the people are good at farming and will certainly not allow such a waste of land.

    This is related to the fact that the rulers of Datong are nomadic people, and the animal husbandry in Datong is more developed.

    But animal husbandry requires far larger and more extensive land than farming to feed the domestic population.

    With the current territory of Datong, it is obviously not enough.

    No wonder people go to Daye to harvest autumn valley every autumn and winter.

    Lin Xuan watched it for a long time, with countless thoughts racing through his eyes.

    Ah Shan is a simple-minded person who is completely unprepared for his savior Lin Xuanjiu and tells her a lot of things.

    The place they are going to is called Huaining City. It used to be the city of Daye decades ago. It was occupied by Datong after it was conquered by Datong.

    Huaining City has now become the largest city on the Datong border, and it is also an important supply station for the Datong cavalry to plunder every year after autumn.

    The ox cart swayed all the way and finally arrived at Huaining City. Lin Xuanjiu was stunned as he looked at the wide open city gate.

    There is no card at the city gate, and there is no need to charge entry fees. People can come and go at will. People who come and go rarely walk. Most of them are riding horses and carrying bows and arrows. At first glance, they are typical nomads.

    Lin Xuanjiu has never realized that he is in an enemy country and not on the territory of Daye.

    Ashan drove the ox cart directly into the city. Lin Xuanjiu couldn't help but ask, "Don't you need to pay taxes here?"

    Lingzhou City has a gate tax. The tax is paid on a per-capita basis, and the tax is three cents per person.

    "No, what kind of tax do you have to pay?"

    Ah Shan was so big-hearted that he answered without even thinking about it.

    "There will be a small gathering here every half month, and surrounding villages and tribes will come here to trade and exchange daily necessities. If you have to pay taxes when entering the city, who will come?"

    Lin Xuan was silent for a long time, Datong understood the importance of trade circulation.

    After entering the city, Ah Shan went straight to the market.

    Lin Xuanjiu stopped him and asked, "Is there any jewelry shop in the city?"

    "Yes." Ah Shan looked at her strangely.

    Lin Xuanjiu said without hesitation, "My brother and I were suddenly in trouble. We didn't have any money with us. Fortunately, the jewelry I bought for my mother is still there. I can only exchange it for some money first and make do with it."

    She actually had a banknote with her. How could a person who had ever been poor not carry money with him?

    But it¡¯s obvious that Daye¡¯s bank notes cannot be used here in Datong. I¡¯m afraid that as soon as I take them out, they can be captured by spies.

    In order to make a living, she had no choice but to sell her earrings.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
