Gong Langzhong sneered: "It's not that I look down on you, family wealth, you can look at your rice fields, how much rice has grown? How many kilograms of rice can you make? Think about it again, how much medicine you owe me? - Your mother is sick and credited medicines, and your child is sick and credited medicines. This time the medicine cost for my legs is not counted. Just say that you owe me the medicine costs in the past, but I'm afraid that all the rice in your rice fields will be given to me, and it's still a little short of it. Family wealth, you fell down the rock crack and your leg was broken before, so I think you are pitiful, so I take the initiative to credit medicines for you. However, I don't have any good medical skills. Now you ask Mr. Gu to treat the disease, and I have nothing to say. Now you are not looking for me to see a doctor, but I'm asking me to buy medicines, so I can't give you the medicines for you to credit. I won't do anything too much. You owe me the medicine costs before, and I don't urge you to pay it back, but if you want to buy new medicines, you have to pay."

Luo Jiacai's wife also said embarrassedly: "Dr. Gong, our family is really difficult, look..."

"I know your family is in trouble. Isn't it difficult for our family? How many people in the village owe me medicine, I always post the book. My family is eating shepherd's purse now, and there is no rice left. My 80-year-old mother is also lying on the bed waiting for food, and she also has sons and grandchildren. I am not richer than your family."

After saying this, Luo Jiacai couldn't beg him to buy medicine for credit. He looked at Gu Yezhou pitifully: "Sir, I don't feel any more pain now. Otherwise, I'll use the medicine of Doctor Gong, right?"

Gu Yezhou sighed: "The reason why you don't feel pain now is because I used acupuncture to relieve you. Once this effect disappears, you will still feel pain. Because the cause of your pain has not been treated, that is, the wound on your leg. I tell you, if you don't use my medicine, you will not only be very painful, but may also die!"

Luo Jiacai was stunned for a moment: "No way? Isn't it just hurt my leg? How could he die?"

"If you don't believe it, forget it. Anyway, I've told you. I've prescribed the prescription for you. You can find a way to get the medicine yourself."

After saying that, Gu Yezhou stood up.

Luo Jiacai's father-in-law Shang Bo quickly grabbed him and stopped him: "Don't leave first, sir, let's talk about it."

"say what?"

The smile on Shang Bo's face became even more flattering: "Sir..., I have something to discuss with you, do you think it's okay?"

Gu Yezhou had already guessed what he was going to say and looked at him.

Mr. Shang scratched his scalp and grinned and said, "They were five of them who injured you yesterday. The village had already asked each of them to compensate two dou of rice. You can't finish eating that much. Can you lend me some rice first? Let's take it to Mr. Gong to buy medicine. Don't have too much, just enough money for the medicine. OK? Please! - Grandson, kowtow to the gentleman quickly and thank you."

As he said that, Mr. Shang pressed the heads of several children and asked them to kneel down and kowtow to Gu Yezhou.

Gu Yezhou sighed and said, "I will treat your family. I can't get the medical fee. I also ask me to ask for the medicine money by myself. That's the matter."

Luo Jiacai's wife also knelt down and cried, saying, "Sir, you should pity our family, your father is the pillar of the family. If he had a few things, our family would not be able to survive!"

Gu Yezhou, from the situation of Luo Jiacai's family, and the situation he saw on the road, knew that the place he had traveled through was on the verge of famine, and his food was exchanged for it with his head, not much. If he had to pay a lot of credit, he might not be able to escape the fate of starvation. He said with a hard heart: "Sorry, I can't set this precedent. Because once you set this precedent, everyone in the village knew about it and asked me to pay a credit. How could I have so much credit? Should I live?"

A few turbid tears flowed in Shang Bo's eyes, his knees softened, and he knelt down with a gurgle: "Sir, old man, I'll kneel down, beg you..."

Gu Yezhou sighed and had to help him up: "You have always been kneeling down. What else do I have to say, okay, just this time." He turned around and asked Gong Langzhong: "How many meters do those plaster houses cost?"

Doctor Gong thought for a while and said, "A bowl! It's crazy!"

"Okay!" Gu Yezhou said to Shang Bo: "You go back with me and I'll scoop rice for you."

"Thank you! Thank you! Sir, you are my life-savior!"

Gu Yezhou smiled bitterly and pulled all the children up.

At that moment, Gu Yezhou was still sitting on the chair, carried by Shang Bo and Mo Huaixiang, and helped Gong Langzhong to help him leave the Luo family, pass through the village, and return to Gu Yezhou's home.

Gu Yezhou asked Mo Huaixiang to scoop a bowl of rice for Uncle Shang, and then Uncle Shang thanked him for helping him and went to get medicine with Doctor Gong.

After Mo Huaixiang waited for them to leave, she stared at Gu Yezhou: "Why did you suddenly become generous?"

Gu Yezhou was slightly stunned. Did the scholar who resurrected himself by borrowing a corpse to revive the door before? Then he smiled and said, "What I just said was the truth. If Luo Jiacai's injury is not used to use my medicine, the legs are not protected in the mild case, and the worst case will even lose their lives! This is a matter of life. If a bowl of rice can save his life, it is worth it."

"You saved someone's life, then who will save your life then?"

Gu Yezhou said: "Don't worry, I will think of a way to make money..."

Last night, Gu Yezhou was full of confidence in saying this, but now, after seeing the environment he was in, he found that he had no confidence. In such a poor village, no matter how skilled his medical skills were, it was probably useless. Because even if the medicine was cured, there was no money or food to collect. Maybe he had to pay for the Luo family's illness. If this continues, don't say that you have a well-off life, you are afraid that it will be difficult for you to survive.

Mo Huaixiang said: "It's good that you have a solution. However, today the Luo family saw that you were soft-hearted, and their relatives and other villagers who received the news, hehe, these people wouldn't just let go of this fat meat. I'm afraid that your food will be emptied by them in a short time!"

Gu Yezhou was stunned: "No way? Don't your family have food too? Why don't they go to borrow food from your family?"

"Our family? Hehe, no one in the village dares to come to our house, you should know."

"I..., I'm injured and forgot a lot of things."

"Yes, then I'll tell you, my father looked at Heshan, but he didn't even have to borrow money or grain from him! Not to mention the people from the village, even if his mother-in-law came to the door and spoke, he would chase people like him! Since I can remember, I have never seen anyone who has borrowed a penny or a grain of food here!"

"Why did your father agree to help them get food when I was injured this time? Isn't that also borrowing?"

"This time it's different! Because it was his daughter. The trouble caused by his son-in-law was that his son-in-law was first fucking water without reason, and then I took a hoe to hit someone with his daughter. The one who was beaten was the only scholar in the village, and he was beaten to death, almost dead. Moreover, I don't know who was injured. What if it was his daughter? If this matter is not handled immediately, you, the scholar, is a disciple of the magistrate of Dong County. When you get angry, you run to the county yard to complain, and the county magistrate will cause trouble for him! Maybe you have to sue. It costs more than that. He has a scale in his heart. He said lightly and sent it to the yamen. In fact, he is unwilling to interfere in this case involving his daughter and son-in-law. It would be best if he can handle it himself."

Gu Yezhou suddenly realized: "So that's it."

Mo Huaixiang said, "Okay, I won't say it anymore. In short, you know, don't be too kind, otherwise you will suffer the consequences! - I'm going to cook!"

Gu Yezhou smiled bitterly, locked the granary door, and took advantage of Mo Huaixiang's cooking time, Gu Yezhou came to the study. Judging from his current recovery from his injuries, he was afraid that he would be able to move freely in a few days. At that time, he would have to return to a private school to teach the children. Although he studied traditional Chinese medicine, often read classical medical documents, his knowledge of ancient Chinese is still good, and he could write and recognize traditional Chinese characters, and his calligraphy has always been good, but he has no idea what the private school should teach. Therefore, he has a clear idea in his heart when he is free to read books.

Gu Ye Zhou couldn't help but feel a sank of Confucian classics such as "The Analects of Confucius" on the table in the study. If he wanted to teach these things, he would be stunned, because he had never learned this except for listening to Yu Dan's lectures and knowing some classic sentences of the Analects of Confucius.

When Gu Yezhou was frightened, he saw a few books on the table, which were "Thousand Characters", "Miscellaneous Characters", and "Hundred Family Names". Gu Yezhou knew that these were the basic reading materials for the enlightenment and recognition of words in ancient children. He immediately thought that what he taught was all rural children, and it should be just enlightenment and recognition of words. He couldn't help but relax his mind immediately. However, it's better to verify it.

He took those books to the kitchen and asked Mo Huaixiang who was busy: "I can't remember clearly. I teach the children in a private school. Are these books taught?"

Mo Huaixiang twisted her waist and looked back with a charming look: "That's right, these books are just these books. - You won't even forget about your knowledge, right? Hehe?"

She found that Gu Yezhou's eyes actually fell on her bulging chest, and her pretty face turned slightly red, and she gave him a coquettish look: "Hey! What are you looking at?"

"No..., I didn't read anything." Gu Yezhou quickly withdrew his gaze, his face a little hot, as if the child had done something wrong and was caught, and said embarrassedly: "Of course I will never forget these books and knowledge, but some of them may not be remembered for a while."

Seeing him like that, Mo Huaixiang hurriedly comforted him: "Don't worry, take your time, you will remember it."

"Then I'll go back and read the book carefully. Don't delay the child." After that, Gu Yezhou returned to the study and began to sit down and study with the book.

Gu Yezhou was reading intently, and suddenly heard footsteps outside the window. The sound was lighter, probably a child, and judging from the messy sound, there was more than one.
