Chapter 40 If you owe money, you have to write an IOU~(1/2)
Hua Xiaonian is treating the little baby here.
She first used acupuncture to control the baby's rising body temperature, and then took out a few herbs from a small cloth bag for later use.
The herbs were picked by her when she was in the mountains.
Oh, to be precise, it was at Master's Medicine Garden.
There are many herbs in Master's medicine garden, and each plant is better than the herbs outside. It's a pity that she doesn't get many of them.
Mainly because I was afraid of being discovered by my master.
After all, a single move can affect the whole body. If the master discovers that she is following the herbal medicine, he will definitely find out that she is following the wine.
While Don Wen, who was still sobbing, was not paying attention, the little ancestor took out the decoction stove in the space.
Just then, little brother Li Hu ran back holding Hua Lao's big iron pot, looking at her with a look on his face asking for praise and said.
"Boss, I'm back."
What a cooperative boss the little nun is.
He patted Brother Li Hu on the shoulder and praised without hesitation, "It's great."
Li Hu: Hey hey hey, thief is happy.
After being praised, Li Hu was particularly discerning. Seeing that his boss seemed to be trying to cook some medicine, he hurriedly came back with bundles of firewood.
"Boss, do you want me to help you light the fire?"
Hua Xiaonian had just cut the herbs into short pieces and put them into the small medicine stove. They needed to be soaked before decoction.
She responded, "Brother Li Hu, you can boil the ice cubes in the big iron pot first. They will be used in the decoction later."
Li Hu immediately agreed and slipped away.
Hua Yunrou and Yanzhi listened to the village chief's wife's plan to make money. When they came back, they saw Donor Wen sobbing and crying, and her little sister was also lying on the table.
There is a small medicine stove next to it.
Hua Yunrou suddenly had a bad premonition.
I ran forward quickly and wanted to ask my mother if something had happened.
But before she could get closer, she was stopped by Li Hu's younger brothers, "You can't go in, just wait here."
When Li Hu went to Hua Laoshi for some water, he glanced at the little baby with acne, and he immediately saw the baby's symptoms.
That's chickenpox, and it's contagious.
Therefore, when he came back with water, he asked his younger brothers to stay around and not allow anyone to come in to avoid widespread infection.
Hua Yunrou had no choice but to call her mother from afar, "Mom, what's wrong with little sister? Is she sick or injured?"
It is said that an eldest sister is like a mother. When she saw her younger sister lying motionless on the table, she was no less worried than Mrs. Wen.
But she is familiar with her mother's character. She will cry uncontrollably when something happens. As the eldest sister in the family, she has to be the mainstay of the family.
She can't cry, she must be strong.
Otherwise, Xiao Nian and her mother will be scared.
She didn't notice at all that little sister Xiaonian, whom she was worried would be scared, was calmly carrying the water that brother Li Hu had boiled and walking towards the medicine stove.
You can make medicine for the little baby.
But the little baby is too young and weak...
The little nun decided not to give her oral medicine, but to use external medicine instead.
When Mrs. Wen heard her eldest daughter's voice, she immediately sniffed and tried to control her panic to avoid scaring her daughter.
While turning around, I didn't forget to wipe my tears.
"Yunrou, don't come over. My sister is fine."
Xiao Nian just told her that her youngest daughter was suffering from chickenpox.
She had heard from the old people in the village that this disease was very serious, and if you were unfortunate enough to get it, there would probably be no cure.
Also, chickenpox is contagious.
I heard from the old people that a few years ago, a villager from a foreign village had chickenpox, which infected all the villagers in the village.
The government asked imperial doctors to diagnose and treat them, but to no avail.
In the end, the village could only be burned down to save the villagers in the surrounding villages.
Mrs. Wen didn't know if Xiaonian could cure her little daughter.
But she had unknowingly dragged Xiao Nian into trouble, and she must not let her eldest daughter be in danger of being infected again.
Thinking of this, she also suddenly remembered that when the old people talked about chickenpox, they said that the imperial doctors were lucky not to be infected because they wore veils.
She immediately tore off a piece of fabric from her cuffs, walked over to Xiao Nian, and whispered.
"Xiao Nian, I remember that an old man said that chickenpox is contagious, but covering your mouth and nose with a veil can prevent the infection."
"Mom used the fabric from the cuffs to tear off a veil. Put it on quickly to make sure you don't get infected."
When I said the last sentence, I cried again.
The little nun really didn't like Donator Wen's habit of crying easily. If she hadn't heard that Donator Wen was worried about her...
She was afraid that she was looking for a silver needle to fix her tear holes!
But she didn't want Donor Wen's "veil" either.
Then he took out a blue modern mask from his small pocket and pulled out three of them.
Put one on yourself first.
He also called brother Li Hu and taught him to put it on.
The remaining one was handed to Donor Wen, "Wearing a mask can also block the infection. Donor Wen, please give me ten cents."
Donor Wen was really moved when he heard the first half of the sentence...
The mask was exquisitely made and looked very expensive, so my daughter actually gave her one.
But in the second half of the sentence...
Well, it turns out... it's really expensive.
But why does my daughter only collect money from her?
It’s not that she doesn’t want to give her daughter money, but she thinks that her biological mother is not as important as Li Hu in her daughter’s heart?
Little nun: Oh, yes.
Although this is a mask given by Master.
She also has several boxes in her space, and her family is considered rich, but she can't give them away to others at a loss, right?!
Ahem, it seems I don’t have any capital either.
However, except for the younger brothers who can do it for free, everyone else must pay.
No need to discuss!
Donor Wen was heartbroken for a moment, only to realize that her daughter was still waiting for her to give her money.
But she really has no money now.
She asked, "Xiao Nian, my mother doesn't have any money at the moment. Can I owe you the debt first? I'll pay it back to you as soon as my mother has money."
The little nun heard this...
I didn't quite believe it at first.
Donor Wen is such a big man, but he has no money?
But then I thought about the time when Donor Wen had a difficult delivery, and all the money that Donor Hua Yunrou paid for the doctor was spent crying with Donor Hua.
Oh, then it must be because you really have no money.
If I had known earlier, I would not have given Donor Wen a mask, and I would have almost lost money again.
Fortunately, Donor Wen said he would pay her back...
The little nun took out a pen and paper from her small pocket and handed it to Donor Wen, "Master said that if you owe money, you have to write an IOU."
"Donor Wen, please write it down."
Donor Wen...
She felt her heart was broken.
After receiving the pen and paper from her daughter, Donor Wen was about to write and was surprised to find that she didn't know how to use her daughter's pen.
Enduring the heartache, I asked my daughter, "Xiao Nian, is this a pen that can be used for writing?"
The little nun saw Donor Wen's confused look.
Oh, don’t Donor Wen know how to use it?
To be continued...
