Chapter 72: How can curing illnesses and saving lives be considered illegal?
"Second aunt."
Gu Qian followed Shen Ju into the room and saw her walking towards the kitchen.
"Oh, Shen Ju, what happened to you? Why is your face so swollen? Are you okay?" Li Ping was startled by Shen Ju who came into the room.
If the voice was not familiar to her and she had not called herself Second Aunt, she really would not have dared to recognize that the older person was Shen Ju.
"I'm fine, Second Aunt, I was just stung by a bee. Sister Gu Qian has already checked it out for me." Shen Ju rubbed his face and said nonchalantly, "Second Aunt, please bring me a jar quickly. Let me see how much honey I brought back from the mountain. I'll give you half of it quickly." Shen Ju said excitedly as he put down the box.
Only then did Li Ping see that the frame behind Shen Ju was full of beehives.
"Oh, you are really amazing. This is a good thing." Li Ping was overjoyed when she saw it. Sugar was a rare thing these days.
"Aunt, I won't be polite with you. I don't want half of it. I'll just give some to the two children." Li Ping quickly took the jar.
"Yes, yes, Second Aunt, I want to discuss something with you. You can pack all these and send half of them to my Third Sister-in-law later. If I take them back, my mother will probably put them away and send them to the supply and marketing cooperative. If you send them, my mother won't be so cruel." Shen Ju discussed with Li Ping in a low voice.
"Okay, okay, leave this to me. I'll tell your third sister-in-law secretly that you're so thoughtful and take the risk to go up the mountain to get these things." Li Ping said praisingly.
"My sister-in-law just came back from surgery, and there was nothing at home, so I thought of getting some." Shen Ju felt a little embarrassed by the compliment.
"Your third sister-in-law and her family were arguing about splitting up the family business. What's the outcome now?"
"My mother agreed and said we could divide the family. There wasn't much left at home. Just like my brothers did before, we could only get some food and a house, but nothing else.
In addition, my brother and his family need 50 yuan a year in pension and 200 kilograms of grain. These will be determined every three years." Shen Ju explained the family situation to Li Ping.
"50? Your brother and his family will have children to support in the future. How much money can they get from their work points in a year, besides the money they can exchange for food?" Li Ping was surprised. This was going to force the child to death. Their family could only exchange their work points for more than 80 yuan in a year.
My child is sick, so I bought some things, just enough for a year.
If there is no one working in the family, relying on the little money distributed by the village and giving 50 to parents is really not enough.
"Yes, my elder brother and second brother also disagree." There has been a lot of quarreling at home these two days, and she has been hiding outside.
"I'll ask your second uncle to go and persuade these two people. Are they planning to force their children to death and see who will take care of them when they are old?" Li Ping said angrily.
"Thank you, Second Aunt." Shen Ju said gratefully.
"We're family, don't be so polite. How about having lunch at my house?" Li Ping asked him to stay.
"No need, Second Aunt, I still have to go back to cook. If I don't go back soon, my mother will scold me. So I'll leave first. I'll come back to get the frame in the afternoon." After saying that, Shen Ju stood up and was about to leave.
"Hey, just let your mother cook the meal herself."
“My mom has other things to do, so I’m leaving first.
"Sister, I'll come over to get the medicine this afternoon, please help me." Shen Ju stood up and called out to Gu Qian in the room.
"Okay, come over after you eat. The medicine still needs to be boiled, so come and boil it yourself." Gu Qian agreed.
After packing up the herbs he brought back and telling everyone in his family not to touch them, he prepared the medicine for Shen Ju with peace of mind.
"Qianqian, your Aunt Cai from next door just sent you something. It's on the table inside the room. Take a look and see what it is."
"Okay." Gu Qian looked through the cloth bag on the table. Inside were packets of medicinal herbs wrapped in paper. They were all processed and prepared. The age and quality of these herbs were better than some of the herbs Gu Qian picked himself.
When Gu Qian was preparing medicine for Shen Ju, he was missing two medicinal ingredients and wanted to use other ones instead, but now he found that the bag had exactly what he needed.
"What did Lao Cai give you?" After finishing her work, Li Ping returned to the main room and saw Gu Qian's happy look.
"I sent some medicinal herbs. Aunt Cai knows how to prepare them. When I saw them on the mountain, she said she would send them to me. Look, they are better than what I picked myself." Gu Qian took out the herbs and showed them to Li Ping.
"It's good that it can be used. I don't understand it either." Li Ping looked at Gu Qian happily and laughed too.
"I plan to give Aunt Cai some money to buy these herbs. After all, I am a village doctor and I make money by prescribing medicine. If I don't give Aunt Cai the money for the herbs, it will be difficult for me to ask for her things in the future.
"What do you think, Mom?" Gu Qian discussed with Li Ping.
"I agree to this, but we won't pay for the first time. We'll send some things over later and agree to send herbs next time, and then calculate the price based on the market price." Li Ping thought Gu Qian's plan was a good one.
Brothers should settle accounts clearly and talk it over in advance so that there will be no hurt feelings in the future.
"Okay, I'll go over there later."
Gu Qian brought some food to the door. Although Cai Rongtian felt embarrassed, he was finally persuaded by Gu Qian.
I promised to bring herbs to Gu Qian and find herbs according to Gu Qian's needs. The price will be determined based on the quality and quantity of the herbs required.
Gu Qian left with satisfaction, and Cai Rongtian was also very happy.
"Wife, do you think this is reliable? We are doing business here. If the higher-ups find out, will we be breaking the law?" After sending Gu Qian away, Shen Chuanmin and Cai Rongtian started whispering.
"We were just doing a favor for our neighbor, and this was just a thank you gift from her. It's not like we're doing business.
How can curing illnesses and saving lives be considered illegal? Don't talk nonsense or go out and shout about it," Cai Rongtian said quickly.
"I certainly won't go out and say nonsense. I'm not stupid.
Wife, you do it first. If you can really make money, we can do it together then.
You said you could make money in the village one day, but that's unimaginable." Shen Chuanmin muttered.
"It's enough for me to help by myself, why do I need you to join me? You should just work hard and earn work points. There are only a few people in our village, and we can't consume much Chinese medicine even if we eat it as a meal." Cai Rongtian shattered Shen Chuanmin's idea of making a lot of money and turned to walk towards the kitchen.
Gu Qian didn't know what they were thinking, so he went home, had dinner, and continued to prepare medicine.
Everything in the countryside is good except that there are too many mosquitoes. There were not many medicinal herbs before and they were not available in full.
But now with a bag of medicinal herbs sent by Cai Rongtian, her inventory has expanded a lot.
I also need to prepare some mosquito repellent. My mother-in-law has sensitive skin and her skin will be scratched when bitten by mosquitoes, so she also needs some medicine.
Gu Qian prepared the herbs one by one.
"Sister-in-law, I'm here."
The labor force to boil the medicine came to the door.
