Farmer’s Stepmother’s Skillful Farming

Chapter 840: Holding a grudge

 Bai Shitang thought for a while and nodded, "As the third brother said, let's open a medicinal materials store."

A few shops are prospering, and the family is not short of money. But opening a few more shops can leave more property and security for the children in the future.

　No one dislikes having too much money.

Seeing that Bai Shitang agreed so simply, the anger on Xie Guangbai's face dissipated completely. He smiled and patted Bai Shitang on the shoulder, "I know that my fourth brother understands me best."

“Okay, don’t say anything anymore. If anything happens in the future, just say hello and Third Brother will definitely do a great job for you.”

“In this case, third brother, stop talking here and go and show Carpenter He a quick look.” Bai Shitang reminded.

"Walk." Xie Guangbai's smile turned into a flower, and he walked out with only his hands behind his back.

Bai Shitang and Su Mulan smiled at each other and followed behind.

The three people took a carriage and went directly to He Mulin's house.

After a consultation, Xie Guangbai even frowned.

“The right hand is still saying that the bones are growing fairly straight, but you can’t use force. You only need to apply acupuncture and apply plaster. It will take three months and it will be almost healed. Now this leg..."

"The doctor before was a quack. He didn't handle it in time. The leg was not well connected and grew crookedly. In the next few years, he did not maintain it properly. The tendons and the flesh on the calf have shrunk, even if the bone is broken. If it is reattached, the muscles will not be able to exert force, and I will not be able to walk normally. "

“I don’t recommend breaking off the leg and reattaching it again. You’ll suffer a lot more. You can only take some decoction and apply more medicine later. When it’s cloudy and rainy, the leg won’t feel so uncomfortable.”

As soon as Gui and He Mulin heard this, the light in their eyes dimmed visibly.

They have already heard that Xie Guangbai is one of the best doctors in the world. Since he said that there is no way to cure this leg, it seems that it is really difficult for even gods to cure it.

 She could also see how excited He Mulin was when she went to ask Xie Guangbai for a consultation.

 Now that there is no way to heal his legs, He Mulin must feel so sad...

Gui's heart felt stinging, and her eyes filled with tears.

"It's okay, it's okay. Just heal the hand. Once the hand is healed, you can do a lot of things." He Mulin opened his mouth to comfort Gui.

 At least he can help with some small carpentry work, which shows that he is not a useless person. If he is more diligent, he can probably feed and drink for two people.

He Mulin's eyes were bright, and Mrs. Gui also understood what he meant, nodded, and then thanked Xie Guangbai, "Thank you, doctor, for giving me a good treatment for this wrist."

"This is natural." Xie Guangbai nodded, brought the box over, took the silver needle from it, and gave He Mulin the needle first.

 After working for about an hour, Xie Guangbai pulled out the last needle.

"Okay, I'll come back tomorrow and I'll do the acupuncture for ten days. From now on, I'll just put on the plaster." Xie Guangbai said, "When I come tomorrow, I'll bring the plaster and I'll write a prescription later. "Sir, take the medicine according to the prescription and boil it three times a day. After the injections are done within ten days, I will change the prescription."

 “Thank you for your trouble, doctor.”

 After being given the injection, He Mulin was sweating all over, his face was pale and he couldn't speak clearly.

Mrs. Gui hurriedly helped He Mulin lie down and thanked Xie Guangbai. After he wrote the prescription, she thanked him again, "Then I will hire a car to pick up Dr. Xie in the county tomorrow."

"There's no need to bother. There's nothing going on in the county these days. I'll be staying at my fourth brother's house nearby. I already know the road. I'll just come by myself tomorrow." Xie Guangbai said, "I can He’s not the doctor from Huichun Hall, he’s not very skilled in medicine and he’s also a bit pretentious.”

Ms. Gui didn’t understand why Xie Guangbai belittled the famous Huichun Hall, but Dr. Xie was so polite and easy to talk to. Ms. Gui was so grateful that she almost kept saying the word “thank you” in her mouth.

When Bai Shitang and Su Mulan heard Xie Guangbai's words, the couple looked at each other and laughed dumbly.

They all say that Xie Guangbai holds a grudge, and what he said is true.

“How about this, when are you going to open this medicinal herb shop?”

 At night, Su Mulan was half lying on the bed and asked Bai Shitang next to him.

"The sooner the better." Bai Shitang said, "Master Lu's condition has stabilized and he is said to be able to get out of bed and walk around. Carpenter He won't be able to stay here for too long. Third Brother probably won't be able to stay here for too long either." ”

Since you are so angry, you have to vent your anger well. Since you don’t have much time, you have to seize the time.

Bai Shitang thought for a while, then the hand around Su Mulan's shoulder rubbed her smooth and delicate shoulder, "Tomorrow, I will go to Fucheng. Jiang's Medicinal Materials Store in Fucheng has a good reputation and has been an old store for many years. I am willing to come if I want to. Let’s make a deal.”

 “I’m going to Fucheng.” Su Mulan suddenly felt a little disappointed.

If we go to the capital city by carriage, it will only take one day to go there. If we talk about business again, I am afraid it will be delayed for another three or four days.

As the children grow older, they have their own thoughts and preferences, and she does not need to worry about other business matters, so she has more and more free time.

Although tidying up the flower garden and making favorite meals can pass the time, when Bai Shitang is not at home, Su Mulan always feels that something is missing.

"I'll go alone quickly and I'll be back later in the evening." Bai Shitang pinched Su Mulan's small nose, "I'm just buying some medicinal materials, and the prices are also the market, there's nothing much to discuss. It’s probably a little late to come back, but it shouldn’t be too late.”

"Then I will make some wontons tomorrow afternoon and wait for you to eat when you come back in the evening." Su Mulan said with a smile, "The river shrimps are plump in summer, mince them and stuff them with pork fillings to make wontons. The skin is thin and the fillings are good. Big, I’m sure you like it.”

"I like to eat. I like to eat whatever my wife makes." Bai Shitang chuckled and just blew out the lamp on the table next to him.

The sound of the willow branches squeaking in the moonlight was drowned out by the high and low chirping of summer insects in the quiet night.

In the next few days, Xie Guangbai stayed at home and went to Hejiazhuang every day to give He Mulin acupuncture and apply plaster.

 Bai Shitang went to Fucheng several times in succession. Every time he got up in the morning and went out before dawn, and returned in the evening under the stars.

 Every time she comes back, she can eat the midnight snack prepared by Su Mulan.

Pork and shrimp stuffing wontons, chewy and spicy red oil cold skin with crispy skin and stuffed meat fillings, or rich tofu ball soup...

 It can be said that every time is different.

Originally, I was riding a horse all the way, and I was hungry when I came back. The food tasted extremely delicious, so I would eat more if I didn't pay attention.

 Over a period of time, Bai Shitang felt that he seemed to have gained two kilograms more...
