Song Yu was carrying goat milk and on her way back she met some villagers who were going out to work. They all greeted her warmly.

I also asked her what she was holding.

Song Yu said bluntly: "Goat milk, my second aunt gave me a cat, but it's too young and can't eat."

"Doctor Song, you have a cat. Do you want a dog? The old dog at my sister-in-law's house has given birth to a litter. How about I catch two for you someday?" An older sister said enthusiastically.

Song Yu smiled and said, "No need. I'm alone and it's too troublesome to raise a dog."

The elder sister said: "What's the trouble? Just feed the dog as you like. You don't have to worry about him. He can even guard the door for you."

Song Yu said, "Then I'll go back and think about it. The main thing is that I don't eat much normally, and there's nothing left over from every meal."

The eldest sister laughed out loud at Song Yu's straightforward words: "Little Doctor Song's words are really funny."

Song Yu didn't know what was so funny about what he said, but he didn't refute it. After all, his elder sister's smile didn't mean any harm.

After chatting for a while, Song Yu returned home. At the door, he met his sister-in-law, who was holding a child and sitting on the stone in front of the door.

When the eldest sister-in-law saw Song Yu coming back, she quickly stood up and said anxiously, "Doctor Song, you are back."

Song Yu asked: "What happened?"

My sister-in-law said, "My daughter had acne yesterday. She was fine last night. When I woke up this morning, I felt her forehead was burning. Doctor Xiao Song, please help my daughter."

Song Yu held the pottery jar in one hand and the key in the other and opened the door.

"Come, carry it in first." Song Yu said and let his sister-in-law go in first.

Song Yu walked in later. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Su He walking into the house step by step with a cane.

The sister-in-law stood there in a daze, and Song Yu only then remembered that there was another person at home.

However, he had anticipated the situation, so he was not too panicked. He explained, "This is my cousin Su He. He came to see me. He was injured on the way and is staying with me for now."

This reason actually does not stand up to scrutiny, but it is the best reason Song Yu can think of and the fastest reason to make everyone accept Su He.

"Ah, oh oh oh." The sister-in-law reacted and nodded repeatedly.

Song Yu said, "Sister-in-law, please bring the child in first."

The eldest sister-in-law quickly carried the child and followed Song Yu into the house.

Then, following Song Yu's instructions, he placed the child on a simple wooden bed next to the dining table in the main hall.

The wooden bed was just a board with two supports underneath. It was usually used as a hospital bed. Song Yu had been sleeping on this board these days.

A white coarse cloth was spread on the wooden board. Song Yu took a buckwheat pillow and his sister-in-law put the child down.

After Song Yu put the goat milk in his hand away, he went to check on the child.

My sister-in-law stood aside with a nervous look on her face.

After a moment, Song Yu stood up and said, "Don't worry. The child is young and has a weak immune system. I'll first reduce her fever, then prescribe a dose of Qingwen Baidu Drink. You can go home and boil it for her. Be careful not to let her catch a cold. But the house needs to be well ventilated, and the other children should be isolated. This is quite contagious."

"Okay, okay, thank you, Doctor Song." The sister-in-law said gratefully.

Song Yu said you're welcome and went to get medicine for the child.

There is no need to worry about the children for the time being, and my sister-in-law is also willing to pay attention to other things.

For example, Dr. Xiao Song’s cousin who has been standing at the door since just now.

What kind of man was that? He had the heroic spirit of a man and the gentleness of a woman, unlike the rough men in the village.

The whole temperament is somewhat out of place in this village, just like Doctor Xiao Song.

A doctor named Xiao Song came, and now another cousin of Doctor Xiao Song came.

Song Yu sent his sister-in-law away and turned back to the house. In the yard, Su He was standing there with a cane, looking at Song Yu.

Song Yu was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong?"

Su He said, "I wanted to go into the house, but I didn't have time."

"Well, it's okay. You can't hide forever. It's better to be discovered sooner." Song Yu said.

Su He was a little surprised. He thought Song Yu told him not to open the door easily because he was afraid that he would be discovered.

But now he looks like he doesn't care.

Song Yu said, "Don't be anxious. It takes 100 days to heal a broken bone. You need to slowly heal your leg, otherwise you will suffer from sequelae in the future."

Su He nodded and said, "Okay."

In the morning, Song Yu fed Tangdou, then went out to pick up some hay and made a simple nest for Tangdou.

After deworming it, I put it in its nest.

Tangdou is still young and not afraid of strangers. He always wants to run out of the cat's nest.

After catching it a few times, Song Yu let it go.

Anyway, there is a threshold in the house, and it is too small to climb out.

I cooked brown rice at noon. Although the taste was not very good, it was filling.

Su He took a bite and was not used to the rough texture, but he did not show any abnormality on the surface, as if he had already gotten used to it.

Instead, Song Yu showed a poor appetite.

As for the vegetables, they are all wild vegetables.

Song Yu originally planned to dig up a piece of soil in the yard and plant some vegetables.

She couldn't always rely on picking wild vegetables to survive. It was still early autumn. If she couldn't go back, there would be no wild vegetables to pick on the mountain in winter.

Then she can't just chew rice every meal.

Just as the idea came out, I met Su He.

After lunch, Song Yu prepared to go out to borrow a few hoes so that he could turn the soil in the yard first.

She is now very grateful that her mother allowed her to stay at her grandfather's house in the countryside for a month or two during the winter and summer vacations.

She also benefited from her grandfather's teachings on common sense in life.

Otherwise, in this self-sufficient ancient time, they would have starved to death before they could find their way home.

But she didn't expect that when she came back from outside with a hoe, the gate of the yard was surrounded by people.

Song Yu was startled, thinking something had happened.

"What's going on, everyone?" Song Yu walked forward and asked.

When everyone heard the sound, they turned around at the same time.

"Doctor Xiao Song is back." Someone in the crowd shouted.

Song Yu looked at the group of people at the door.

Young and old, they are all aunts, sisters, and sisters-in-law.

One of the half-grown children squeezed out from the crowd.

He held a winnowing basket in his hand, with two pieces of taro in it.

He walked up to Song Yu and said, "Doctor Song, my mother asked me to bring you some taro to thank you for curing my sister."

Song Yu looked at the child, took the dustpan from him, and said, "Go back and thank your mother for me. I'll free up the dustpan for you later."

"Doctor Xiao Song, I heard that your cousin came to see you. He is very handsome. Are you going to go with him?" an aunt asked curiously.

Song Yu now knew what they were here for.

She looked down at the half-grown child beside her legs with some helplessness.

It must have been the eldest sister who told it this morning. There are few people in the village, and gossip spreads quickly.
