Rebirth of marriage

When Xie Jiu and Lin Shu returned to the Yang family, many people gathered outside the Yang family's thatched house. Life in the exile was boring. Cai suddenly fell ill. Xie Jiu went to seek medical treatment for her, which became a scene to watch. .

Lin Shu entered the room and looked around at everyone, followed Xie Jiu to the bedside, put his hand on the pulse, and after a while the diagnosis was confirmed, "It's a stroke, do I need to prescribe medicine?"

She was asking Boss Yang.

It is not close to the city and there is no special drug store. Patients nearby usually go to Lin Shu's house to get their medicines.

The doctors have been invited, and they are going to prescribe medicine. Boss Yang nodded, "Prepare."

Lin Shu quickly wrote out the prescription and handed it to Boss Yang, "First prescribe half a month's worth of medicine. Collect a total of six taels of silver. Bring the money back with me to get the medicine."

Lin Shu had to pay the money to go to the clinic. When Boss Yang saw Xie Jiu and invited people over, he was secretly happy that she really got the money from Gu Xiao, otherwise how could he invite Lin Shu.

So when Lin Shu asked him to take the money, he looked at Xie Jiu.

Of course she should pay if she has money.

"Isn't this a bit expensive?" Yang Laoer interrupted, not knowing what his brother was thinking. If he had only six taels of silver in the past, he would have had more than this slip through his fingers.

But in the penal colony, a man could work for ten coppers a day, and it would take him nearly two years to earn six taels of silver.

Xie Jiu didn't seem to understand what Boss Yang meant, and stood quietly aside. Seeing that Boss Yang was hesitant to move, there was a hint of urging in his eyes.

This idiot.

Boss Yang cursed in his heart, but he couldn't bear to explode in front of everyone, so he had to suppress his anger and said in a good voice, "Brother and sister, pay the money."

Xie Jiu looked at him confused, "I don't have any money."

When Lin Shu saw this, his face turned cold and he raised his voice, "Are you, the Yang family, kidding me? I have a long history of visiting doctors and do not accept credit. Everyone in this area knows this.

It was she who knelt down at my house and begged, saying that you had money to pay, but now that she has been diagnosed with the disease and the medicine has been prescribed, what do you mean by resisting?

If you really don't want to spend money to see a doctor for your mother, I will admit that I am unlucky and make this trip in vain. But in the future, you Yang family members will not seek my medical treatment again. "

Lin Shu's words were clearly heard outside, and within a short while, various comments came back to the room.

"In their family, only the two brothers and Xie Jiu went out to work, while the rest of the family sat at home. They must be rich."

"If you don't work and you still have food to eat every day, your family will definitely have money, but they may not be willing to spend it."

"It is extremely unfilial to refuse to treat my mother even when she is sick."

……

After hearing this, everyone in the Yang family became very ugly.

In the past, when prisoners were exiled from Yuyouguan, the men worked in quarries or built city walls, while the women worked as military prostitutes.

Gu Xiaolai made corrections after that. The prisoner and the men involved in the incident were still punished by going to the quarry and building the city wall, but they were given ten coppers a day to live on to prevent poverty from causing trouble.

Women who have not committed crimes can no longer work as military prostitutes, but can work in embroidery houses and farms under the government's name to make money.

The Yang family is not a repeat offender, and only Yang Lao and Yang Lao Er are registered to do hard labor, while the rest can make a living on their own.

The Yang family was used to being arrogant and extravagant, could not afford to suffer hardships, and with the support of the grocery store, except for the eldest brother, the second brother, who had to go to work, and only sent Xie Jiu to the embroidery room, the others found various reasons to stay at home.

Xie Jiu looked at Lin Shu calmly. Lin Shu understood, picked up the medicine box and walked out.

Seeing this, Boss Yang stopped him and said, "Doctor Lin, wait a moment, let me think of a solution."

If they let Lin Shu go like this today, they would have a reputation of being unfilial and offend Lin Shu. If he had a headache or fever in the future, it would be troublesome for Lin Shu not to treat him.

He pulled Yang Laoer and pretended to go to discuss it, when he saw a person running in a panic outside, entering the room and whispering in his ear.

Boss Yang's face suddenly turned pale.

Xie Jiu's lips curled up slightly. Boss Yang knew that the grocery store was burned down and that he would have no way of earning money in the future, and he was even more reluctant to treat Cai's illness.

Sure enough, he said with a face full of sorrow, "Dr. Lin, I'm sorry that your trip was in vain. It's really that my family can't afford the money."

Compared to fame and life, he quickly chose the latter.

Although the others didn't know the reason, they tacitly chose to remain silent. Six taels of silver was not a small amount, so the people Xie Jiu invited asked Xie Jiu to find a solution.

Lin Shu snorted and left the room.

Xie Jiu glanced at Ms. Cai, who was lying on the bed with her eyes red with anxiety, and said anxiously, "Brother, you can't just look at your mother-in-law like this, think of a solution quickly."

She quickly walked out of the house and caught up with Lin Shu, "Doctor Lin, please save my mother-in-law. I can work as a cow or a horse for you, wash and cook for you, and be a medicine boy for you. I can do anything, as long as Please treat my mother-in-law, please."

Lin Shu frowned, "Get out of the way, I don't need to act like a cow or a horse."

Xie Jiu was so anxious that he tugged on her sleeves to prevent her from leaving, "Please..."

"Dr. Lin, thank you for your filial piety. How about you make it happen? You are busy alone on weekdays, so let her take care of your food and daily life and pay off your debts."

Some kind-hearted people in the crowd persuaded.

"Yes, it is rare to be able to be so filial after experiencing the pain of exile. Doctor Lin, please fulfill her filial piety."

Yang's eyes brightened and he followed out of the yard, "Doctor Lin, let my brothers and sisters work to pay for the medicine. If we make money in the future, we will pay you in time."

Seeing that Lin Shu didn't speak, he added, "If one brother and sister are not enough, let my little sister join us."

Yang Xiner, who was about to step out of the threshold, heard this and hurriedly returned to the house. She didn't want to be a slave.

Lin Shu sneered, "When the eldest daughter of the Yang family goes to my house, should I serve her, or should she serve me?"

Boss Yang said, his girl is really not good at work.

One after another, people helped Xie Jiu to speak.

Lin Shu was silent for a while and said, "For half a year, I have to go into the mountains with me to do laundry, cooking, and collect medicinal materials. I don't like to get involved too much with others. If you want to be my family's oxen and horses, you will only have to go to the mountains for half a year." If you can live in my house, bring your things with me if you want, and get out of the way if you don’t want to.”

"This..." Boss Yang hesitated. She had not yet figured out Gu Xiao's attitude towards Xie Jiu, and it was difficult to control her when she was not at home.

Lin Shu glanced at him and sneered, "I don't want to give up either. I'm not interested in spending time with you. Get out of the way."

Yang Laoer didn't have much money in the city. All he could think of was that Xie Jiu didn't earn much in the embroidery workshop. Working for Lin Shu for half a year would be able to pay for the medicine, and he could eat and live in the Lin family, which not only saved food rations for the family, but also freed up a room. Come to the house, it’s a good deal no matter what.

He whispered these to Boss Yang, and finally reminded him, "Brother, if there is a chance to return to Beijing in the future..."

The Great Xia Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety. In this place of exile, filial piety was ranked second to survival. No one should laugh at anyone. But one day when they returned to the capital, not treating their mother would be their biggest stain.

Boss Yang glanced at Xie Jiu and saw that her body was thin and she was holding Lin Shu, as if Lin Shu would cry if he didn't agree to her, and she looked very weak and helpless.

He made up his mind, "Just as Dr. Yi Lin said, brothers and sisters, you go pack your things now and follow Dr. Lin. I will go with you to get mother's medicine."

Even if she doesn't live in the same place as a little girl, he still has a way to manipulate her.

Besides, no matter where she goes, she is the daughter-in-law of the Yang family and must be used by the Yang family.
