Chapter 175 Old Doctor Jiang
Tian Shao and Li Aihua arrived at the Changxi State-run Hotel at around 12:30, which was the peak time for eating. When the two walked to the door, they saw that the inside was full.
Li Aihua couldn't help but said: "As expected of a provincial capital, it is rich."
Half of the state-run restaurants in the county are empty. Everyone's life is so tight that they are not willing to go to state-run restaurants to eat, they are all made at home or go to the cafeteria. Half of the people who go there are toothbrush festivals or treats.
Tian Shao said with a smile: "That's not true, the reason why there are so many people here is because the chef's skills are good."
Thinking about the money and food stamps given by Uncle Li, Li Aihua said grandly: "Then let's have a good meal today."
It was only when I went to order that I found out that every Saturday at noon, Master Nan would cook braised pork, which is why there were so many seats. It's a pity that Tian Shao and Li Aihua came late, and the braised pork was sold out long ago.
Tian Shao said to the aunt who collected the money: "We order two dishes and one soup. It doesn't matter what dish it is, as long as it is fried by Master Nan."
With Master Nan’s craftsmanship, anything you fry is delicious.
The aunt was delighted when she heard it, and said, "Young lady is a straightforward person, all right, I'll go and tell Master Nan right now."
Soon the aunt came out from inside, and said with a smile: "Girl, Master Nan said to make you sweet and sour pork ribs, chopped pepper fish head and tofu soup, please wait by the side for a while!"
Neither of them objected.
This meal costs four yuan and sixty cents and a food stamp of one catty.
Li Aihua paid the money and food stamps, and it happened that two guests left after eating, so she dragged Tian Shao to sit there. After sitting down, she sighed a little: "Xiao Shao, the food here is more than twice as expensive as that in the county."
In the county town, it doesn’t cost you two yuan to order three of these dishes, but here it costs more than four yuan.
Tian Shao only has four words: "Value for money."
After about 20 minutes, the dishes came, and the first one was sweet and sour pork ribs. Seeing that the color of this dish is red, bright and oily, the bursts of aroma provoked the tables next to it to look over.
Tian Shao picked up the chopsticks and put a piece in his mouth without hesitation, um, it was better than the braised pork last time. As for Li Aihua, he is already immersed in the food and has no time to care about other things.
The table on the right ran to the counter to order this dish when they saw it, but unfortunately they couldn’t eat it without ribs.
After finishing the two dishes and one soup, Li Aihua still couldn't get enough of it. She hiccupped and said, "This master's craftsmanship is simply amazing. No wonder you can't forget it! Xiao Shao, let's eat here next time we come to the provincial capital."
It goes without saying that when you arrive in the provincial capital, you will definitely come here to have a real treat. It's a pity that it's too far away from the machinery factory, and it takes more than an hour to get there by two buses, otherwise she would like to have dinner here as well.
The two left the state-run hotel, took the address and began to inquire about where Old Doctor Jiang lived. Unexpectedly, the place where the old doctor lived was very far away, and Tian Shao asked many people to find Lu after walking for more than two hours.
Tian Shao said that no matter how remote the place is, Zhao Xiaorou can be found. This is the benefit of power.
Entering the village, the two finally found the place mentioned on the note. After asking the villagers, they came to a low earth embryo house. I saw an old lady with white hair feeding the chickens in the yard. She walked up and asked, "Grandma, we are looking for Mr. Jiang, is he there?"
The old lady's face changed slightly, and she waved her hand and said, "There is no Mr. Jiang here, you have found the wrong place, so hurry up!"
Tian Shao guessed that the other party might have been persecuted, so he was very defensive. With red eyes, she said: "Grandma, it took me a long time to ask someone to find out about Mr. Jiang. Grandma, every time I came here when I was young, I rolled on the ground in pain. Last time, the pain was so painful that I wanted to kill myself. As long as I die It won't hurt anymore."
Speaking of this, she burst into tears: "But I can't die, my parents are not too healthy to do heavy work, and there are four younger sisters to take care of. I am going to die, what can they do?"
Li Aihua looked sideways, why didn't she think this girl could act before. But she didn't lose the chain at the critical moment, and echoed Tian Shao: "Grandma, the doctor at the hospital said that it would be difficult for Xiao Shao to conceive a child after the cold in the palace is too severe. Grandma, if she can't have children, who will marry? Grandma, you Help her, or her life will be ruined."
Tian Shao cried and said: "Grandma, if I don't get married, not only will I be ridiculed by the villagers, but my parents will also lose face. Grandma, I beg you, let Mr. Jiang show me! Grandma, you Don't worry, as long as I leave this door, I will forget everything, and I will never say a word to anyone. If I break this promise, I will be hit with a thunderbolt."
Li Aihua hurriedly said: "Me too. Grandma, just show her. Last time she came to Xiaotian, she lay on the bed for three days. When the pain was unbearable, she took a knife to draw on her wrist, and said that as long as she cut it off, it would be fine." No more guilt."
Tian Shao did say this, but he didn't take a knife to draw with his wrist. But this also made Tian Shao look at each other with admiration, and cooperated very well.
The old lady looked at Li Aihua and asked, "Who are you?"
Li Aihua said: "We are good sisters. Don't worry about her coming to the provincial capital alone, so I will accompany her. Grandma, please ask old doctor Jiang to treat her! It's really too miserable."
The old lady looked at the two and sighed, "Come in!"
Walking into the room, the old lady sat down and said to Tian Shao, "Sit down, and I'll check your pulse."
Tian Shao was shocked, and soon realized that the old lady was the person she was looking for. Well, it seems that I misunderstood, this old doctor Jiang is a woman, not a man.
The old lady checked Tian Shao's pulse, which took a long time. Seeing her frowning, Tian Shao and Li Aihua both felt their hearts rise.
After more than a quarter of an hour, the old lady said: "Your palace cold is really serious, and you are malnourished and lack of energy and blood, so you suffer so much when you are young. Fortunately, you just came here, and you can recover after a period of recuperation. But only If the conditioning is not enough, the nutrition must keep up, otherwise this problem will not stop and will always be with you."
Tian Shao relaxed. It's fine if it can be adjusted well. After the last time, she was really scared. If it happens again, she might really not be able to bear it and will kill herself.
The old lady looked at her expression and said: "This medicine is not cheap, and it will take half a year, and it will cost a lot of money."
He said this because he saw that Tian Shao was not well dressed.
Tian Shao said without even thinking about it: "Grandma Jiang, I am willing to spend as much money as long as I can cure this problem. Grandma Jiang, please prescribe me a prescription! I will start drinking when I get home."
A smile appeared on Old Madam Jiang's face upon hearing this address, but the smile was fleeting. She said to Tian Shao: "I'll read Fangzi to you, and you write it yourself."
Tian Shao knew that this was a way for the old man to protect himself, so he immediately took out a pen and paper from his satchel.
