Chapter 59
Zeng Feisong slapped his chest: "Don't worry, isn't there me? I'll teach you, it's very simple! This doctor is the most important thing. If you can't speak, people won't believe your medicine! Well, they chase you and buy you medicine!" He glanced at the bag of rice on the ground and whispered: "But, I'm a little hungry now. I haven't taken anything for several days. Otherwise, another day?"
Gu Yezhou had seen the ability of these two brothers and sisters to fool people. He also knew that walking around the streets and alleys as bell doctors is not as important as a clinic where patients come to the door. Eloquence is very important. If they don’t know, they won’t make much money. Besides, they should express their gratitude. Then he said, “You give me some advice, and I will naturally reward you. This is how you tell me the trick inside, and I will reward you with a bowl of rice. How about it?”
Zeng Feisong was surprised and happy. He looked at each other with his sister Zeng Feixia and was about to nod, but heard his sister say first: "Two bowls of rice! I'll take you for three days! Please guarantee you to go on the road!"
"You took me out for three days? Teach me on the spot?"
"Yes!" Zeng Feixia nodded, "A lot of things you can remember just by saying them, you have to give me some advice on the spot. I will take you there! I will demonstrate to you, and you will remember them firmly! But you have to care about my three-day meal! Is that OK?"
Gu Yezhou glanced at Zeng Feisong, and Zeng Feisong quickly said, "My sister is very polite, no problem! Don't think we have never been a bell doctor, but we travel around the world and are good friends with many bell doctors. Our brother and sister know very well what they do! Please make money!"
"My sister and I, what should you do if you set up a stall?"
"Don't worry, I can handle it alone, she's all redundant!"
Zeng Feixia gently kicked her brother.
Gu Yezhou looked at Zeng Feixia again. Zeng Feixia quickly blinked her big eyes and smiled charmingly: "You try it and you will know! Is it OK?"
"Okay! Then there's a hard time!"
"That's great! That's it! We'll set out tomorrow morning! But we have to make some preparations."
“What are you preparing for?”
"Doctor Ling's business is like pain relief, cough relieving pills, etc. Do you have it?"
Gu Yezhou smiled and said, "I relieve pain and cough, I don't need pills, just use this one." After that, I took out the small golden needle from my arms.
Zeng Feixia slapped her thigh and smiled: "Sir, you don't know anything! How much money can you make by acupuncture? You have to sell medicine! You can only make money by selling pills to patients!"
"No need. If I need medicine, I will prescribe them. They will go to the pharmacy to catch it myself."
"Then you won't make money! The money will be made by the pharmacy! Do you know? In the doctor's industry, it's not enough to make money for curing diseases, but selling medicines to make money! Do you understand?"
Gu Yezhou smiled bitterly. Of course he knew this truth. This is the case in modern society. A doctor can prescribe hundreds of medicines for a broken cold. It is because the profit of medicines is too great. I didn’t expect that the same was true in ancient times. After thinking about it, he said, “Okay, I will prepare some commonly used pills.”
"Strike the iron by the heat!" Zeng Feixia rushed to say, "Now let's go buy medicine and make medicine!"
"What are you doing in such a hurry? It's going to be tomorrow morning."
"Yeah, okay."
He stopped talking for a while. Gu Yezhou saw them looking at the food on the ground, so he got up, walked over, scooped a bowl of rice from the rice bag, and handed it to Zeng Feixia: "Get a bowl first!"
Zeng Feixia was overjoyed and quickly took it over, carefully carrying it out: "I will come back after pouring the rice!"
As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Ning Sanmei coming towards me with a large bundle of straw, so I hurriedly avoided it.
Ning Sanmei looked at the rice in her hand in surprise and hurried into the door. Seeing Gu Yezhou and Zeng Feisong sitting there, she couldn't say anything, so she squatted down to lay the straw.
Zeng Feisong hurried over: "Girl! I'll help you!"
"No!" Ning Sanmei said coldly, blocking the place where he was about to squat down with her body.
Zeng Feisong sat back embarrassedly.
After a moment, Zeng Feixia ran back and handed the earthen bowl to Gu Yezhou: "Here! There is another bowl!"
Gu Yezhou scooped up another bowl for her, and she brought it back and poured it back. She returned the earthen bowl to Gu Yezhou and said, "Starting tomorrow, I will help you. If you want to take care of my meal, then I will have breakfast tomorrow with you!"
Gu Yezhou nodded.
Ning Sanmei was even more surprised, her big eyes slid around, looking at Zeng Feixia, and then at Gu Yezhou.
Zeng Feisong stood up: "Then sir, let's take a break early. We're back too."
After Zeng Feisong and his sister left, Ning Sanmei pouted and asked, "Why do you want to give them two bowls of rice?"
"They promised to teach me how to be a bell doctor, - tomorrow I will start to make money by walking around the streets and alleys, and I can't sit and wait like before."
"They teach? Will they? Don't cheat rice!"
"They are still very good at fooling people. This is exactly what I need to learn. If two bowls of rice can be learned, it will not be expensive."
"Okay! But I won't sew clothes in the future! I'll keep my family and watch our rice. There's still money, so don't let someone steal it!"
Gu Yezhou said: "Okay! Just be at home, I'll just go out! The male lead is the outside and the female lead is the inside!"
Ning Sanmei blushed again, looked at him happily, and whispered: "Then let's... sleep?"
Gu Yezhou didn't think anything was wrong, so he took off his coat and lay down. Ning Sanmei blew out the lantern before then took off her coat and lay in the quilt beside Gu Yezhou. When the two left the escort agency, they did not take away the escort agency's mattress, but only took away their own two quilts, so they still had no mattress and could only sleep on the straw.
After lying for a while, Gu Yezhou muttered, "Why is it so hot?" After that, he lifted the quilt a little.
Ning Sanmei laughed and said, "Didn't you say that your heart is calm and your heart will naturally be cool. I guess I'm thinking too much, so I feel hot."
"No," Gu Yezhou sat down, "It hasn't been cold these days. It's already early winter now, so you can just wear a single robe. Don't you think this is abnormal?"
Ning Sanmei also sat up: "It's something wrong. In previous years, I felt cold when I was wearing a jacket. Now I feel hot when I wear a single jacket, and it's really strange that day. I remember that it's like this since the previous year. In the middle of winter, I don't have to wear a jacket. I just came here."
Gu Yezhou said: "This is really strange. No wonder there will be a severe drought in the past two years. Even in winter, I don't know what it will be hot in summer!"
"Not many people have gone out this summer anyway. As long as there is nothing special, everyone is unwilling to go out because the sun is too vicious."
Gu Yezhou remembered the mysterious voice he heard during the journey, saying that natural disasters and man-made disasters were heading for destruction. Could it be that the scorching sun is also part of natural disasters and man-made disasters? That would be miserable. If this continues, no crops can last for how long.
Gu Yezhou didn't care about anything else. He took off his coat and only wore a pair of pants. He lay down and felt a little cooler.
Ning Sanmei was also very hot, but she didn't dare to take it off because she was wearing a close-fitting underwear. If she took it off, it would be almost like being naked. She didn't dare to be so arrogant in Gu Yezhou. Therefore, she could only insist on lying down like this, hoping that her heart would be calm and naturally cool.
Sure enough, after lying for a while, I finally felt sleepy and fell asleep in a daze.
When she woke up, Ning Sanmei found that she was lying in Gu Yezhou's arms again. Moreover, Gu Yezhou was naked. Although she was wearing clothes, she was sweating mostly soaked, which was almost the same as not wearing them. She was immediately embarrassed and embarrassed. She saw that Gu Yezhou was still sleeping. She felt a little relieved. She quickly gently took off Gu Yezhou's hug, sat up, looked down at the two roses on her hips that were soaked by night sweats on her chest. She was even more ashamed. She quickly got up, regardless of changing her clothes, and put on her outer clothes. Although she felt very hot.
She calmed down and secretly looked back at Gu Yezhou. Seeing that he was sweating all over. I don’t know if it was her sweat wet his body or the sweat from his body wet his clothes. However, it was indeed very hot, and it was normal for such a day to sweat. What made her wonder was why every time she woke up, she was lying in Gu Yezhou’s arms? Isn’t it very hot? Why would it be like this?
She was embarrassed to think further and quickly prepare breakfast.
When the breakfast was about to be prepared, Zeng Feixia pushed the door and came in: "Brother Gu, why don't you call me when you start your meal...? Ah--!"
At first glance, she saw Gu Yezhou lying on the floor with her upper body naked, and turned her head shyly: "How can you take off like this when you sleep!"
Ning Sanmei said: "It's so hot, don't you take off your clothes and sleep?"
"You can't take off even if you want to take off."
"Who told you to come in without knocking on the door?" Ning Sanmei said angrily.
"I smelled the aroma of rice and agreed that Brother Gu would take care of my three meals a day, so I came over. - Since Brother Gu hasn't gotten up yet, I'll come over later." After that, he left the door as if he was running away.
At this time, Gu Yezhou pretended to be waking up from the dream and broke away his eyes. In fact, he woke up before Ning Sanmei and found the embarrassment of the two. He didn't understand why Ning Sanmei would curl up in his arms every time he woke up from sleep.
"Has breakfast been prepared?" Gu Yezhou sat up and stretched.
"It's done! The wash water is ready." Ning Sanmei knew that the gentleman had to wash his face every day.
Gu Yezhou put on his clothes, washed his face, and sat at the torn table. Ning Sanmei then walked to the door and called Zeng Feixia to come over for dinner. Zeng Feixia came, holding a small plate of moldy tofu in her hand to put it in the meal. When she entered the door, she shouted: "My Brother Gu, why are you taking off all your clothes and sleeping?"
"It's too hot! Hehe" Gu Yezhou smiled embarrassedly.
"Then you are not like you. There is still a maid in the room!"
Ning Sanmei said proudly: "Mr. and I never avoid it!"
"Oh? Then did you take off and sleep?"
Ning Sanmei blushed and spat: "You have just taken off and fell asleep!"
"Okay, let's have a meal!" Gu Yezhou interrupted the two of them.
