The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Song Yuntang slept for most of the hour. When he woke up, Xu Qingye was sitting by the windowsill reading a book.

She rubbed her eyes and sat down opposite him.

Xu Qingye glanced in her direction and put down the book in his hand.

"Big brother was here just now."

As he said that, he poured her a glass of water.

Song Yuntang picked up the water cup and took a sip, "But what about my second brother's marriage?"

Xu Qingye nodded, "The wedding date is set for April 16th."

Hearing this day, Song Yuntang looked up with a little surprise.

"On the same day as mine?" He then smiled. "That's fine. I can have a lively birthday at the same time."

Thinking of the questions Song Jinyuan asked him, Xu Qingye felt hot all over his body from time to time.

Looking at his eyes that seemed to want to eat him, Song Yuntang felt a little scared.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

After a pause, Xu Qingye spoke again.

"My eldest brother also asked me if you were pregnant because you have been sleepy lately."

"Pfft! Cough cough..."

Hearing this, Song Yuntang spat out the water he had just drunk and almost choked on tears.

What's going on here, bro?

Isn’t it normal for young people to want to sleep in?

Now she doesn't have to go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables for food and clothing. Who wouldn't want to lie in bed more if they had the conditions?

Seeing this, Xu Qingye hurried forward and patted her on the back.

"Don't be so excited. If you're not ready yet, we can take it slow."

Song Yuntang waved his hands and said after a while, "That's not the reason. I'm just a little surprised to hear big brother say such words all of a sudden."

Xu Qingye nodded.

"He doesn't know our situation, so it's normal for him to misunderstand us."

Song Yuntang took the rag that was used to absorb the tea on the table and wiped the water she had just sprayed on the table. "No need to explain to them, just let them misunderstand."

Xu Qingye hummed.

"I thought this was a matter between us as husband and wife, so I didn't want to explain it to him. I just said I would pay attention to your health."

Song Yuntang glanced in the direction of Xu Qingye, then lowered his eyes to look at the cup in front of him.

In the past many days and nights of sleeping in the same bed, Xu Qingye had always been restrained and polite. Apart from kissing her and hugging her, he never overstepped the boundaries. Now she had passed her seventeenth birthday.

Pregnancy may be put on hold, but everything else can be done.

On second thought, the imperial examination is coming soon, so I should wait until he finishes the exam and not let these distracting thoughts affect his exam.

After drinking the water in the cup, Song Yuntang asked Xu Qingye to continue reading and got up to go out.

Xia Ning was practicing martial arts in the open space of the village. Not far away were squatting three little ones, Fang Xiaobao, Zhao Fubao and Sun Tianer.

Seeing Song Yuntang coming over, the three of them hurriedly greeted her.

When Xia Ning saw her coming, he stopped and saluted her.

"master."

"Are there many taro at the foot of the mountain?" Song Yuntang asked.

Xia Ning nodded, "There are quite a lot, all over that large area."

"Come with me to town. I promised Manager Li yesterday that I would come over to sit in the clinic for an hour this afternoon. Let's go early and come back early."

Song Yuntang said this and walked towards the town.

Perhaps everyone had heard that Song Yuntang was coming to Baicaotang for a medical consultation today. When Song Yuntang arrived, there was already a long line of patients outside.

"Doctor Song, I have had stomach pain these days?" said the pale-faced old lady, holding her stomach.

After taking her pulse and observing her complexion and tongue coating, Song Yuntang stood up and found the patient's key pain location.

"Auntie, you have a chronic stomach problem. You need to take good care of yourself. Don't overeat or overindulge. Eat a regular, light diet. I'll prescribe you a dose of Danggui Sini Decoction with Evodia and Ginger (from the Treatise on Febrile Diseases). Take it for seven days and then see the doctor for a follow-up consultation."

The old lady was stunned.

"Will Doctor Song not be in Cile Town in seven days? I was thinking of seeing Doctor Song for a follow-up consultation."

As Song Yuntang wrote the prescription, he said, "I may not still be in town after seven days. If I'm not here, it will be the same if you consult another doctor. When the time comes, you can tell the other doctors about my diagnosis and they will make the decision."

The old lady nodded, thanked him, took the medicine and went to the counter to get it filled.

As soon as she left, the next patient came in and spoke in a low voice.

"Doctor Song, my daughter-in-law just gave birth. I've made her everything she needs to eat, but she still doesn't have enough milk. I came here mainly to ask you how I can increase her milk supply."

Song Yuntang looked up at the woman in front of him.

"Try making a soup with six ounces of loofah and a pound of carp (a folk remedy). Pay attention to your nutrition and keep a good mood. If it doesn't work, you can take her to a doctor to check her pulse and see if there are other reasons. Next."

The woman said thank you, took note of the method Song Yuntang had just mentioned, and then trotted away.

When it was the next person's turn, the young man stepped forward, holding his cheek and mumbling, "Doctor Song, I have a toothache."

Song Yuntang took just one look and began to write the prescription.

"Two cents of oysters, grind them into powder and apply to the affected area." Then she handed him the prescription. "Okay, next."

Just then, a woman supported a woman and came to the front of the line. After pushing away the old man who was about to sit down, she let the woman sit down in front of Song Yuntang.

Xia Ning hurried forward to support the old man who was almost pushed down, and then looked coldly at the mother and daughter giving birth opposite.

"Anyone who wants to see a doctor must line up at the back according to the rules, otherwise get out!"

I have been practicing medicine in Cile Town with my master for half a month, and this is the first time that someone has cut in line without knowing what is good for him.

A man stepped up from the rear of the group, looked at Song Yuntang and said righteously, "Is this how Doctor Song treats your adoptive mother? Your husband is a scholar after all. Didn't he teach you to respect the elderly and love the young, and to be grateful and repay kindness?"

Only then did Song Yuntang look up at the patient sitting opposite him.

It turned out to be Zhuang Wenyin and Lin Zhaozhao, mother and daughter, whom I hadn't seen for half a year, and He Yuanfei, who I had seen once before at Yang's house.

After not seeing her for half a year, Lin Zhaozhao has become a lot plumper.

She was not very tall to begin with, and now that she has gained some weight, she looks even more ordinary.

Song Yuntang didn't want to pay attention to them, so he just pretended not to know them and gave direct orders.

"Xia Ning, clear out the people who cut in line first!"

"Yes."

Xia Ning was about to take action, but Lin Zhaozhao protected her mother.

"Song Yuntang, we are here to see a doctor. Is this how you treat your patients?"

Song Yuntang remained calm.

"If you want to see a doctor, you have to queue up."

"Doctor Song, you have lived a life of ease and comfort in the Lin family for thirteen years, and my mother-in-law has treated you very well. How can you be so heartless?" He Yuanfei looked at her and said.

Song Yuntang raised his eyes and looked at him.

"Not to mention that it was the Lin family's concubine who exchanged me to the Lin family seventeen years ago. I am also a victim. Now, everyone queuing in front of Baicaotang is here to see a doctor. No one is feeling well. Why should you get priority? This uncle looks like an educated person. Even the ladies and uncles know to follow the rules. Why are you so unreasonable?"
