Zuo Guizheng was joking happily. When he saw Zuo Shaoyang coming in, he stood up and said, "You come out with me."

The two walked to the open space in front of the door, and Zuo Gui said, "I heard that you came to change the medicine last night?"

"yes."

"What medicine should I change?"

Zuo Shaoyang then said the story to his prescription. The sentence "The poison is cured, and six out of ten are removed." Zuo Gui also said this in the fallacy of Zuo Shaoyang's supplementary manuscripts before. He didn't care at that time. At this moment, he felt a sudden realization in connection with the actual medical records. He stroked his beard and nodded repeatedly. He couldn't help but reduce his doubts about the old doctor who taught Zuo Shaoyang's medical skills. It seems that it is not that the things taught by Lao Dr. Ling are wrong, but that his son and himself are useless. The so-called master introduces the door and practices are all for everyone. He also has to rely on his own understanding of medical books. Memorizing medical books by rote is useless.

Zuo Gui asked Zuo Shaoyang in detail about how to adjust the medication, and felt it was very novel, so he couldn't help but respect the old doctor. After the father and the other two said that, they returned to the house. Zuo Gui and Aunt Li had not finished talking, and they had nothing to do, so they wanted to continue talking, but Zuo Shaoyang didn't want to stay here and listen to his father's idle chatting. He wanted to go to Miao Peilan's house to have a look. After saying something to Zuo Gui's father, he carried the medicine box and walked out, and followed the stone road in the village to Miao Peilan's house.

Last time he and his father came here to treat Miao Peilan's mother's external typhoid fever. At that time, he didn't know it was Miao Peilan's home. After hearing Miao Peilan's words, he knew that when he arrived at the door, he saw the four children sitting at the door basking in the sun.

The sun in winter is not very warm, and there is still haze in the sky and thin clouds block it, so it doesn’t feel warm when it shines. Instead, the cold wind gushed into the bone marrow and it makes people feel uncomfortable. It’s better to stay in the house.

Zuo Shaoyang stood at the door and bent down to ask the children at the door: "Brother, is your sister Miao Peilan at home?"

The children at the door looked at him with their faces raised. A seven or eight-year-old boy grinned with his mouth that had cracked the crack and said, "Sister went up the mountain to collect firewood. - You are a doctor. What are you doing with my sister? Do you see a doctor?"

"Do you still remember me?" Zuo Shaoyang said with a smile.

"Well, you came to our house a few days ago to treat my mother's illness."

"By the way!" Zuo Shaoyang saw that they were wearing thin clothes and looked pitiful, and said, "Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year. Why don't you wish me a New Year's greetings? I'll give you New Year's money!"

"Really?" several children said happily.

"Yes, I only have six cents, it's hard to share. Let's do this. The older ones will give the younger ones, the older ones will cost one penny, and the younger ones will cost two pennies!"

"Okay, okay!"

Several children got up and were about to kowtow. Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly held him and said, "Don't kowtow, just bow."

Several children grinned and bowed to Zuo Shaoyang, saying auspicious words about New Year's greetings. Zuo Shaoyang was amused and took out the six cents of New Year's money from his father the day before. Each of the four children sent a message. Several children were so happy that they couldn't stop seeing that they really had New Year's money.

When he was the youngest child, Zuo Shaoyang found that he kept rubbing his eyes. After a closer look, he found that the child's eyes were red and tears. He hurriedly said, "Don't rub it randomly, let me see." He reached out and grabbed the child's little arm, and squatted down to take a closer look. Seeing the child's eyes red, swollen and ulcerated, his heart tightened. This is Fenghuo eyes. If not treated in time, it may lead to blindness! He said, "Don't rub it randomly, your eyes are sick, and rub it randomly will be damaged. I'll give you some medicine!"

He took off the medicine box on his back and was about to get the medicine out. A woman in the room asked in a voice, "Who is it?"

The older child said, "Mom, it was the doctor who came to treat you with bamboo sticks last time! He came to find his sister."

As he spoke, a limping woman came out in a hurry. It was Miao Peilan's mother, and she smiled and said, "It's the little doctor who is here. Come in and sit in! Peilan went up the mountain to collect firewood early in the morning, and it's almost time to come back. Sit and wait for a while."

The older child held a penny in his hand and said happily: "Mom, look! The New Year's money given to us by the little doctor!"

"Oh, that's not possible!" Miao's mother limped over and grabbed the big child's arm and shook it. "It's not easy for the little doctor to make some money by going to villages and villages to practice medicine. How can you just reach out and return it to the little doctor quickly!" While saying that, she made a gesture to steal the money from them, but her hand reached over and turned into a slap again, and gave her son two slaps in the butt. The slap was raised and fell down like dust: "Hurry up, return the money to the little doctor! Are you disobedient?"

When several children saw that their mother did not really take the money from their hands, they held the money and looked at their mother. They often Zuo Shaoyang didn't know what to do.

Zuo Shaoyang smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, it's only a few cents. It's a big New Year's home, I have a little bit of my heart."

When Miao's mother heard this, she let go of the child, rubbed her old hand with calluses that were red and swollen like carrots, and smiled and said, "How is this good..., haha, how is this good.... You guys, why are you kowtowing to the doctor to wish you a happy New Year."

"I've been worshipped, I've been worshipped just now." Zuo Shaoyang said, touching the youngest child's head, "This little guy's eyes are ulcerated, so he needs to be treated quickly.

"That's right? His sister also said she wanted to take him to the city for treatment, but it's just this money. Oh, I heard that it costs money to treat this disease. How could she have so much money to treat him?"

"It's okay, I'll cure him, I don't have any money."

Miao's mother was overjoyed. He originally didn't believe in the medical skills of Zuo Shaoyang, the young doctor, but since he could be treated without money, he was embarrassed to ask the old doctor to come and treat him. Thinking that if the treatment was not cured, he would ask the old doctor to help him. At that time, he would be able to speak. So he hunched and laughed: "Oh, that's great! Little doctor, you are so kind."

Zuo Shaoyang smiled and took out borax, borneol, calamine and Xuanming powder from the medicine box, and prepared to prepare "White Dragon Pill". This external prescription was from the "Symptoms of Treatment" of the Ming Dynasty. These medicines should be prepared into extremely fine powder by using water flying methods to light the eyes and treat wind and fire eyes and cataracts.

Zuo Shaoyang opened the box where the flux agent was stored but stopped. He found that the powder was still too rough, and the big ones were like sorghum particles. This had to be sprinkled in the eyes, but it was afraid it would hurt the eyes. It would have to be very fine powder.

The four medicines needed by the White Dragon Pill, borax, calamine and Xuanming Powder (the powder weathered by Glauber's salt) are all minerals. These mineral medicines must be prepared by special methods such as calcination and water flying to obtain powder form. It is impossible to use mashing alone. No matter how much you mash, you cannot make the powder you need.

The medicine did not meet the needs and could not be used. Zuo Shaoyang put these medicines back, took some dandelions, and said to Miao's mother: "Old man, my medicine needs to be processed before it can be used. You should use this medicine to decoct water to wash your child's eyes. It will have a certain effect. When we come to visit the doctor next time, we will use another medicine for the child. That medicine will have better effect."

"Oh, this really makes you worry!" Miao's mother grinned and took the medicine, "It's a blessing that our Perrin met a good person like you!"

After hearing this, Zuo Shaoyang smiled awkwardly. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a girl's voice coming from behind him: "Doctor Zuo is here?"

Zuo Shaoyang looked back and saw that it was Miao Peilan, carrying a large load of firewood, standing not far away at him.

Zuo Shaoyang said: "Yes, Aunt Li and Mr. Jia's young master have recovered from illness. My father said he would go back at noon and have nothing to do, so he came to see you. I heard from my aunt that you went up the mountain to collect firewood. Haha."

Miao's mother said happily: "Perran, Doctor Zuo gave you a few brothers and sisters New Year's money, and also showed your second son the eye disease. She said she wanted to go back to find good medicine to treat the second son."

Miao Peilan has two younger brothers and two younger sisters, the two younger brothers are called Dazai and Erzi, and the two younger sisters are called Ercao and Sancao.

Miao Peilan lowered her head and carried the firewood until the afternoon, put it down, wiped her sweat, walked to the door, and glanced at Zuo Shaoyang: "How much does the medicine cost?"

"No money is needed." Zuo Shaoyang said with a smile.

Miao Peilan glanced at him, turned around and entered the room, and soon came out again, holding the purse in her hand and handed it to Zuo Shaoyang.

"I really don't need it, just a little medicine."

"It costs money to find other pharmacies!"

Zuo Shaoyang heard her words very clearly. If he didn't charge the money, he would go to another medicine shop to see his younger brother. Miao's mother said so just now. Seeing that she didn't mean to take back the purse, Zuo Shaoyang knew that the girl was very stubborn and strong, and didn't like to accept other people's charity, he had to smile bitterly: "The medicine I used for my second son is my own match, and the effect should be good, but my father set the rules that he would pay for the medical treatment. So, wait until the disease is cured, can you say it?"

Miao Peilan knew this rule and nodded: "How much does it cost?"
