A peasant girl traveled through time and space, and she became prosperous

"Doctor, can my husband's leg really be saved?"

Mom was so excited. If Dad could leave, it would be a shockingly good thing.

Wen Meijiu was also happy, but not as excited as her mother. She had known for a long time that her father's leg could be cured because he still had feeling in his legs, but she had never found a good doctor.

But this Old Li is strange. He cured their horse and now wants to treat my father's leg. Is he a human doctor or a veterinarian?

"Doctor, don't you treat animals?"

Treating dad's illness cannot be taken lightly, Wen Meijiu had to ask.

"That's right!"

Mother was too happy, and only remembered this matter when Wen Meijiu asked her about it.

Old Li was not panicked. Instead, he raised his eyebrows and said half-jokingly and half-seriously:

"The capable ones work harder, the mediocre ones worry about themselves. Who says that if you treat people, you can't treat animals?"

Wen Meijiu looked Lao Li up and down. He seemed to be a friendly person, but he felt something was not right.

If Dad's leg can be cured, let alone forty taels, even sixty taels would not be expensive for warm wine. She has the money.

If Old Li didn't come for her livestock, did he come for her father's legs?

Why would he volunteer to go to his father's house to treat his leg for no reason?

"Could it be that Doctor Li knows my father?"

In response to Wen Meijiu's question, Old Li shook his head like a rattle.

"do not know."

"As a doctor, you should save the world. Whether the young lady believes it or not, I have always thought so.

Instead of doubting my motives, you should heal your father's leg as soon as possible, fulfill your mother's wish, and gain a reputation as a filial son."

One has to admire Lao Li's wisdom. He actually guessed her thoughts at once, and Wen Meijiu was temporarily convinced by him.

"Okay, then please ask Dr. Li to help my father."

Indeed, the most urgent task is to see if Lao Li can cure her father's illness. No matter how much she says, it will be useless.

Mother happily led the way, followed closely by Lao Li and Wen Meijiu, and the three of them went to the carriage together.

Old Li felt his father's veins, tapped and kneaded his father's legs with his hands, then asked his father a few questions and finally came to a conclusion.

"Mr.'s leg can be cured. Give me two months. With acupuncture and medication, I guarantee that he will be able to get out of bed and walk in two months."

While Old Li was seeing the patient, Wen Meijiu was also carefully observing his every word and action.

Wen Meijiu has seen several old Chinese doctors, and there is really no flaw in how seriously this old Li treats patients. All we can do is wait and see how effective the treatment is in the end.

"If the result is as you said, I am willing to pay fifty taels as a reward.

But we don’t have that much money right now. As you saw just now, the Wang family only gave us ten taels of silver.”

Wen Meijiu said this because her doubts had not yet been dispelled.

If there is nothing wrong with Mr. Li's medical skills, then in this chaotic time, is it possible that he is trying to swindle people?

In order to prevent this from happening, she didn't want to give him the medical fee all at once during the long treatment period to avoid wasting it.

"I was just joking with you. If you are willing to accept me and take me to Donghai County, I promise to cure your father's leg for free."

Old Li bowed towards the warm wine, showing his gratitude.

"you are?"

You know, Wen Meijiu never mentioned to him about going to Donghai County, so how could he know that they were going to Donghai County.

Seeing her doubt, Lao Li sighed deeply and said:

"Donghai County is my hometown. I am going on this long journey because I was invited by an important guest from the capital.

Who could have imagined that before they even reached the capital, their carriage was robbed and their entourage disappeared.

I have been following your team for half a day. When I heard your people say that they were going to Donghai County, I came up with the idea of ​​walking back with you.

There are thousands and thousands of people in this world, and I was attracted by the girl's character at first sight. She is brave, resourceful, and daring. It happened that the girl was arguing with others, so I made up an excuse and took the opportunity to sneak in.

This is how it is. If the girl trusts me, I will stay. If not, I will..."

Before he could finish his words, Lao Li stood up from the carriage, as if he was about to leave.

My mother was a little anxious. She finally met a doctor who said he could cure my father's leg and didn't charge any money. Even if he was fake, she still had to try it to know for sure.

"It's a good wine, why not try it?"

Mother also stood up nervously and gently pushed Wen Meijiu's shoulder with her hand, asking her to agree quickly.

Wen Meijiu is responsible for the whole family, not only in terms of eating, but also in terms of physical health.

Dad’s legs are important, but who can guarantee that his family members won’t get sick while fleeing the famine?

"Well, this is not a big problem. Doctor Li, you can stay here. I will take care of all the food and drink. You just need to be responsible for curing my father's leg.

If my father can stand up in two months, fifty taels of silver will be a lot of money."

That’s great, it’s settled. Mother kept thanking Lao Li and even gave him the best food at home.

Old Li was really hungry. When he saw the food, he took it and ate it without any hesitation. He was so honest that he didn't seem like a bad person.

After so many years in the world, Wen Meijiu never trusts outsiders easily. This time he had no choice but to take in Lao Li. There is still a long way to go, so let's just wait and see.

Before Old Li finished the food in his hand, someone from the village chief's side started making a fuss again.

Wen Meijiu glanced over there and guessed what was going on.

Wang Baoquan took advantage of the chaos in Wen Meijiu's house and urged the village chief to take everyone away quickly.

The village chief felt that it would be unfair to Wen Meijiu if he left at this time. After all, Wen Meijiu's family had old, young, and disabled people. If they were left behind, it would be in great danger.

The village chief refused to leave, so Wang Baoquan brought up the interests of all the villagers, saying that if they didn't hurry up, when dark came, everyone would have to spend the night in the wilderness, and if wolves, tigers and leopards came out, everyone's lives would be in danger.

Wang Baoquan hit the sore spot of everyone. Although everyone felt that they were not fair to Wen Meijiu before, considering their own interests, they still stood on Wang Baoquan's side.

They also proposed a plan to take Wen Meijiu into consideration, which was nothing more than giving Wen Meijiu more food, weapons and the like.

These things are of no use to a family like Wen Meijiu's. What they lack most is labor, strong labor, the kind that can protect their family.

Obviously, they all knew the truth, but they still avoided the main issue and gave things just to make themselves feel better.

"Village chief, look, the winemaker's horse has stood up. Her family should be fine, right?"

Someone noticed this and hurriedly pulled the village chief over here to look.

"Wine, can we go now?"

The village chief shouted at this side at the top of his voice.

It might be difficult for the horse to keep up with them.

"Grandpa, the horse probably can't go fast."

Wen Meijiu returned. She was thinking of asking the village chief to keep a few young people for her, but it was difficult to say it out loud.

"Village chief, since everything is fine, let them walk slowly behind us while we explore the way first, isn't that better?"
