Chapter 94: Knowing Yourself and Saving the Whole Family

Worried about her son not paying attention to the food at home, Aunt Wu hurried back home. Seeing that her son Dalang was complaining, Aunt Wu couldn't help but take out the copper coins in her hand to show them to her son.

But her good-for-nothing son's eyes turned green when he saw the copper coins. He snatched the copper coins from her pocket and put them in his pocket. He went out without eating. Aunt Wu asked anxiously, "Dalang, where are you going? Are you not going to have dinner?"

Wu Dalang waved at his mother without even turning his head, "Don't worry about it, Mom. I'm going to the village to play for a while."

Aunt Wu wanted to scold her son, but unfortunately he had already walked out of the house and disappeared in an instant.

She knew that her son would not be able to resist the temptation after getting the money and would go to the village to play with the idle men for money, and she was powerless to discipline him and stop him.

Poor her, a stranger. Her husband passed away early. She fled here from famine and was arranged by the county magistrate to settle here. Unfortunately, this is where the Xu family lives. Not only do strangers like them live in a remote place, they are often bullied. It is not a bad thing for the only son to get along with the Xu family.

Listening to the sound of her son's feet crunching in the snow as he walked away, Aunt Wu couldn't help sighing, but Li Yaoguang and others who followed him into Xu's house didn't know this.

Although Doctor Xu was a scholar and a doctor, his family was not very wealthy, but he stood out in this small mountain village. He had two old servants serving him, one in the front yard taking care of the carriages and horses, and the other in the backyard helping Madam Xu with odd jobs.

He asked the old servant in the front yard to take the mules and donkeys of Li Yaoguang and his group to the barn for care. Cheng Su was personally supported by Doctor Xu and led to the front yard, into a hall filled with the scent of medicinal herbs. This was where Doctor Xu usually saw patients.

"Come here, brother Cheng, let me take a look at your injuries."

Cheng Su knew his own situation and tried to refuse. Instead, he bowed and asked him to look at the unconscious man who was being helped in by his wife and children.

"Brother Xu, my injury is not serious, I can still bear it, but my nephew is not well, he was stabbed, there is a lack of doctors and medicine in the mountains, and he was hit by freezing rain when he was escaping. Although my family and I read a few books and used the medicine we brought with us to treat him, it is still a drop in the bucket. My nephew is unconscious, please treat him, Brother Xu."

Upon hearing this, Doctor Xu did not dare to delay and hurriedly asked Yu Meixue and Li Yaoguang to help the patient to the side of the hall, facing the many medicine cabinets opposite. There was a low couch here, which was usually used to see patients.

The two of them hurriedly followed Doctor Xu's instructions and went inside to put the patient down. As soon as Li Yaoguang and Yu Meixue stepped back, Doctor Xu came forward, pulled out a stool from under the couch, sat down and began to see the patient.

After taking the patient's pulse and asking about the patient's condition from time to time, Doctor Xu withdrew his hand and said to Cheng Su, who was looking at him from afar with concern, "Don't worry, Brother Cheng. Judging from your son's pulse and physique, he is a martial artist with a strong body and strong recovery ability. Although the evil wind has weakened his body, the heat and poison have subsided. I wonder what medicine Brother Cheng used? At present, your son seems to be fine."

"Really? That's great!" Cheng Su felt relieved after hearing this. The only question was which medicine to use. Cheng Su couldn't help but look at his niece beside Doctor Xu, "Guang'er?"

Li Yaoguang explained, "In reply to Doctor Xu, we fled in a hurry and lost all our belongings. My brother Shen was injured. In our haste, we only used the medicines bought from Jishiditang in Kyoto and did some wound cleaning. Nothing else."

"Oh, so that's how it is." Doctor Xu nodded while touching his short beard. "This must be because your son has a strong physique. Let me prescribe a prescription for you. Your son can drink it for a while to recuperate."

"Okay, thank you Brother Xu, thank you Brother Xu."

"Hey, Brother Cheng, you don't have to be polite. It's fate that we meet and I come to visit you. Come on, brother, stretch out your hand and let me take your pulse."

The most critically injured patient had been examined and was not seriously injured. Cheng Su, relieved, cooperated and quickly reached out his hand to the computer beside him. There was no need to use a pulse pillow. Doctor Xu raised his hand to take the pulse. Li Yaoguang and Yu Meixue took the opportunity to come up. The aunt and nephew worked together. Yu Meixue squatted down and gently and carefully rolled up her husband's trouser legs. Li Yaoguang waited on the side so that he could answer Doctor Xu's questions.

After hearing what Li Yaoguang said, Doctor Xu realized that Cheng Su had an old injury on his leg and suffered a secondary injury while escaping. He withdrew his hand, lowered his head to check the affected area, and also took a breath.

"Brother Cheng, your injury is not light!" He looks like a pale-faced scholar, but he is surprisingly patient.

This was the kind of person he admired the most, and Doctor Xu's voice couldn't help but soften a bit. Facing the anxious concern of the female relatives, Doctor Xu bent down and reached out his hand, and after personally checking without any disdain, he spoke gently to Cheng Su and Yu Meixue.

"Brother Cheng, sister-in-law, don't worry. I can treat this injury. I will help Brother Cheng treat it."

Li Yaoguang and Yu Meixue were overjoyed after hearing this. However, just when Doctor Xu told them to help the patient to the side room for more convenient medical treatment, Cheng Su stopped the aunt and nephew's outstretched hands.

"Wait a minute."

Everyone in the room paused and looked at him in confusion.

Mei Xue was even more anxious, and hurriedly asked her husband if he felt unwell. Even Doctor Xu turned around and asked with concern, "Why, Brother Cheng, do you still have any concerns?"

Cheng Su bowed, his eyes fell on the aunt and nephew in front of him, and his son who was sitting at the coffee table opposite and eating the hawthorn pills given by Doctor Xu, and he spoke earnestly to Doctor Xu.

"Brother Xu, I am grateful to my family for their hard work and consideration throughout this journey. Otherwise, I would have died in the mountains. Now that I am safe, I would like to ask you to take their pulses and check their health."

Hearing this, Doctor Xu smiled and couldn't help teasing Cheng Su: "I didn't expect that you are still so gentle and considerate. It's just a matter of convenience. Come, sister-in-law, I will check your pulse."

As he spoke, he had already walked into the consulting room, took out a pulse pillow and a plain handkerchief from the box above the desk where he usually sat, and was about to take Yu Meixue's pulse for the third time.

Yu Meixue and Li Yaoguang, who thought they were fine, wanted to refuse, but Doctor Xu had already approached them with a smile.

"Hahaha, sister-in-law, it's rare that Brother Cheng cares about me, and there's a ready-made doctor here, so please do what my brother wants, otherwise he won't be able to have peace of mind when his leg is treated."

Hearing Doctor Xu's joking advice, Cheng Su nodded repeatedly. Yu Meixue and Li Yaoguang didn't want to refuse. Li Yaoguang was also worried that his frail aunt would suffer from the hardships along the way, so he quickly pushed his aunt to sit next to his uncle, and he went to the opposite side to pick up his little cousin and waited.

After taking the pulse, Li Yaoguang left himself to the last. The aunt and Xiao Yangyang in front were fine, in good health, and not affected by the cold at all. It can be seen that Li Yaoguang and Cheng Su protected them very well.

As for Li Yaoguang herself, Doctor Xu's expression changed as soon as he felt her pulse, which immediately aroused the concern of the whole family.

"What's the matter, Brother Xu? What's wrong with my son?"

My dear children, it’s the end of the month, it’s getting late, and it’s getting dark. The author is calling you to go home and shop!
Come on, come on, buy it and don't let go. Give me all the monthly tickets and recommendation tickets in your hands, otherwise they will expire and be invalid. Hahaha, I'm shamelessly begging for you, muah da da da.
