Looking at the other items in the basket, Zhao Lian, unwilling to give up, asked again, "Dr. Liang, are you really not going to take these things?"

Dr. Liang shook his head: "Plantain, dandelion, and chrysanthemums are all too common. I've stocked up on quite a lot of them myself."

"Take it to the county pharmacy and see, they should want it, but you don't have much, so it won't sell for much."

"And what about this? This is also a good thing!" Zhao Lian said, pointing to the root of the buck-toothed wolf.

"What is this?" Doctor Liang asked, puzzled. He had initially thought it was a star, but after smelling it, he realized it wasn't.

"This is called a buck-toothed wolf, and it has a lot of uses."

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Lian explained the effects of this substance to Doctor Liang, leaving Doctor Liang speechless with astonishment.

It's unbelievable that Zhao Lian, at such a young age, speaks so eloquently, something he himself didn't even know.

"Who told you that?" Dr. Liang asked, half believing and half doubting.

To be honest, this was the first time he had ever heard of this being used in medicine.

"Anyway, I'm just telling the truth. If you don't believe me, that's fine. I'll take it to the county town, and I don't believe no one will understand." Zhao Lian put those things into her basket.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Lian waved the sea gold sand in her hand: "And this sea gold sand, don't you want it either?"

Doctor Liang frowned: "Isn't this just a herb? How come it's become medicine in your eyes?"

He had seen this thing when he went up the mountain; it was a vine-like plant, just a weed.

"Sigh, never mind!" Zhao Lian sighed.

She began to doubt whether Doctor Liang was a half-baked doctor, since he didn't even know about these herbs, and he was supposed to be a doctor.

However, upon further reflection, the Hanjiang Dynasty is a fictional dynasty, and there might not be a Compendium of Materia Medica there, so there might not be many Li Shizhens. Therefore, it is normal for Doctor Liang not to understand.

Besides, doctors' medical skills vary. It's not necessarily true that a doctor knows all Chinese medicines. At least the medicine for sprains and bruises that he prescribed for himself still has some effect.

However, the effect of using sea lygodium as a remedy for bee venom is indeed quite good. I applied sea lygodium to the area where I was stung by a wasp yesterday, and the swelling has subsided this morning.

Seeing Zhao Lian's expression and tone, Doctor Liang felt embarrassed. He couldn't believe that he, a doctor, would be looked down upon by a little brat. He couldn't stand it.

He asked Zhao Lian, "Tell me, what is this herb used for?"

Just as Zhao Lian was about to speak, an anxious voice came from outside the door: "Doctor Liang, is Doctor Liang home?"

Immediately afterwards, a plump woman walked in through the courtyard gate. Upon seeing Doctor Liang, she breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you're here, Doctor Liang."

Zhao Lian recognized her; she was Hong, the wife of Luo the butcher in the village.

"What's wrong? Did my old lady go to buy meat and not pay?" Doctor Liang said, his face hardening.

That old woman, knowing full well that she was going to cut meat, never brought any money. Several times before, it was this Hong woman who came to ask for money.

Mrs. Hong waved her hand awkwardly: "Oh dear, no! It's like this, my old man said this morning that he had pain when he urinated, but he couldn't urinate. What should we do?"

"Come in, come in quickly, I'll get you your medicine." With that, Doctor Liang walked into the house, and Madam Hong followed him in.

Just then, Liang Hu came in with a piece of pork in his hand, and when he saw that Zhao Lian was still there, he glared at her and cursed, "You damn jinx, you're still hanging around in our house."

Zhao Lian was squatting on the ground tidying up her things when she saw Liang Hu return with a piece of pork in his left hand. She immediately glanced at the pork in his hand.

It was a fine piece of foreleg meat, with alternating layers of fat and lean meat, and it looked like there was a wasp perched on it.

Thinking that she had been here for almost a month and had forgotten what pork tasted like, Zhao Lian swallowed hard.

When Liang Hu saw Zhao Lian staring intently at the pork in his hand, he immediately hid it behind his back and shouted, "You jinx! What are you looking at? This is the meat my grandma bought!"

At this moment, Madam Shi walked in from outside the courtyard gate. Upon hearing Liang Hu's words, her face darkened, and she scolded Liang Hu, "You child, I told you not to talk like that!"

Zhao Lian rolled her eyes and smiled, "It's okay, I won't hold it against him. I just saw a wasp eating the pork and wanted to tell him."

"what!"

Liang Hu panicked when he heard this. How could a wasp want to eat his pork?

He quickly brought the pork closer for a closer look, and sure enough, there was a wasp on it, crawling around and gnawing at the pork.

Liang Hu got impatient and slapped him with his right hand.

"Ouch~"

He cried out in pain, and then his hand trembled, causing the piece of pork in his hand to fall to the ground.

"Ouch~"

Shi looked anxious and came up from behind, slapped Liang Hu on the back and scolded, "You good-for-nothing! How could you throw away a perfectly good piece of pork? Now it's all covered in mud and dust."

Seeing the pork covered in mud and bits of meat, Shi felt extremely distressed: "You good-for-nothing, you've ruined a perfectly good piece of meat like this."

Liang Hu looked aggrieved: "Grandma, I was stung by a wasp, and my hand hurts so much."

After Liang Hu finished speaking, he cursed at Zhao Lian, who was standing to the side, "It's all because of you, you jinx. He Yue'e was right, everyone who meets you is unlucky."

"Hahaha……"

Zhao Lian laughed loudly, gloating, "It was your own fault for going to kill the wasps, what does it have to do with me? If you can't poop, don't blame the ground for being hard."

Upon hearing this, Madam Shi immediately forgot about the loss of the pork and became anxious: "Come, let Grandma take a look."

The spot where Liang Hu was stung immediately became red and swollen. Liang Hu scratched it and stamped his feet anxiously, saying, "Grandma, my hand hurts."

Mrs. Shi was anxious and quickly pulled Liang Hu into the house: "Old man, Hu'er was stung by a wasp, and his hand is swollen. What should we do?"

"Humph!"

Seeing Liang Hu's anxious look, Zhao Lian secretly rejoiced: "You little brat, I made you happy to eat meat, and I made you feel so good about cursing me."

The doctor, Liang, was helping Hong prepare medicine when he heard Shi say that her grandson had been stung by wasps, and he immediately became nervous.

These wasps are quite venomous. A little kid in the next village was stung a few times by them, but we didn't pay much attention at the time.

But later that night, he developed a high fever that wouldn't go down. They called him over to see a doctor, but because too much time had been wasted, they still couldn't save him.

Hearing that Liang Hu had been stung by wasps, Hong Shi, who was standing nearby, immediately forgot about her old man's inability to urinate.

He clapped his hands anxiously: "Ouch! Liang Hu has been stung by a wasp! This is no joke, these things are very poisonous!"

"Come, let me take a look!" Doctor Liang quickly pulled Liang Hu's hand.

At this point, Shi took the piece of meat covered in mud to the kitchen to wash it.

Zhao Lian packed her things. Now she wasn't in a hurry to leave. She wanted to see how Doctor Liang would treat Liang Hu's hand.

Seeing the redness and swelling where his grandson had been stung by wasps, Dr. Liang was secretly alarmed; those wasps were truly venomous.

Doctor Liang craned his neck and called out to the kitchen, "Old woman, quickly bring some salt over."

"Hey~ Here it comes!"

Then Shi came over carrying a ceramic bowl.
