Chapter 250: She Becomes a Divine Healer
ly by at the time, namely the master of the Thunder Pavilion!"Ke'er, does your wound still hurt" Feng Yanniang was also clever and immediately thought of something. She deliberately asked aloud."Thank..."Save my child! Save my child..." The woman cried until her voice was hoarse, but no one around dared to help her. Most just shook their heads in helplessness.
Finally, the woman cried until she was exhausted. Looking at her increasingly serious children, she also felt hopeless. She took out a sharp pair of scissors from her body and murmured, "Children, mother can't save you. Now that you're gone, your mother will not live alone either!" After saying this, she raised the scissors and aimed them at her own neck!
"Stop!"
Luckily, Xiao Yuge arrived just in time to save her!
"Sister-in-law, why would you resort to such drastic measures" Xiao Yuge snatched the scissors from her hand.
The woman remained silent, her eyes hollow, devoid of any spark or life. They seemed to hold only boundless darkness. Her face wore an expression of hopeless serenity, but when she looked at the two children, who could die at any moment, tears flowed from her eyes like a broken dam.
As a mother, she couldn't bear to watch her child die before her eyes. She had already lost her husband, she had already suffered once, her child was her only hope in this life, but now that hope was about to be shattered, and she had no hope of living anymore!
"These two children..." Xiao Yuge only then noticed the two children lying on the ground, gasping for breath. As a physician, she instinctively reached out to feel their pulses, then examined their symptoms. After observing them, she couldn't help but frown slightly.
Perhaps seeing Xiao Yuge's skilled examination technique, the woman's original vacant eyes suddenly lit up. She grasped Xiao Yuge's arm tightly, as if she had found a life-saving straw: "Miss, are you a doctor Please save my children! Save them!"
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'm a doctor. Let me take a good look at them first before saying anything." Xiao Yuge was grabbed by her arm, it hurt, but it also showed that this was the instinct of a mother, wanting to hold onto the last shred of hope.
Xiao Yuge suggested taking them into the shop first and then examining their bodies carefully. However, the shopkeeper thought that the two children might have a contagious disease and refused to let them in.
“Fellow countrymen, rest assured. They don't have an infectious disease. It's due to excessive salt intake from the sea and their humid environment. Being young, they also have a slower metabolism. That's why they fell ill. I am a doctor. While I can't cure them instantly, I can alleviate their symptoms. Otherwise, given their current state, without medication, they wouldn't last long.”
“You, you are really a doctor” The shopkeeper looked at Xiao Yuge, as if he couldn't believe it. Doctors were usually pretty old, she was just a young girl, wasn't she a fraud
Xiao Yu Ge saw his suspicion, and then sized him up, then slowly said: "Boss, your eyes are slightly yellow, and the corners of your mouth are pale. You should have a cough, especially at night it's very severe, even unable to sleep all night. Usually, you take licorice root to relieve it, but licorice root only treats the symptoms and not the root cause. As time goes by, your condition is getting worse and worse. Am I right"
The shopkeeper's face changed instantly, his eyes widened, and he excitedly nodded: "Yes, that's right! You are really a doctor!" Few people knew about his illness, but he didn't expect this little girl to see through it at a glance. He immediately believed her.
Xiao Yuge nodded.
"Doctor, since you understand this ailment, do you have a cure for it" The shopkeeper's face was full of hope. For so many years, he had been plagued by this cough to the point that he had hardly slept a good night's sleep. His wife had also taken to criticizing him, and he had long been in agony.
"Don't worry, since I can see it, I will naturally cure it. However, right now we need to relieve the symptoms of these two children first, otherwise they won't make it through today."
"Good, good, good!" At this moment, the shopkeeper's coldness vanished. He hurriedly called over a shop assistant to carry the two children into the room. The villagers who heard that a female doctor had arrived, capable of curing the children's illness, all curiously gathered around, craning their necks to peer into the shop. After all, the woman and her children had been kneeling here begging for two days, but not a single doctor dared to step forward and treat the children.
Qian Tingxuan and Ming Yang exchanged glances, bearing hands they followed Ge'er into the room, seemingly everything was within their plan!
Xiao Yu sang retrieved silver needles from the medicine box. After a series of acupuncture treatments, both children's breathing gradually stabilized, and soon they woke up. They quickly softly called out to the woman: "Mother!"
"Ping'er! An'er!" The woman tightly hugged the two children, overjoyed to tears.
The onlookers, who were initially just curious, now witnessed the two children miraculously recovering. They couldn't help but applaud and cheer for them. They never expected that this little girl's medical skills could be so remarkable, and they all gave her a thumbs-up.
"Divine doctor! Truly a divine doctor!"
"Thank you, divine doctor, for saving my two children!" The woman pulled her two children towards Xiao Yuge and bowed deeply.
Xiao Yu Ge hurriedly stopped her: "Sister-in-law, you don't have to be like this. I'm a doctor, and it's my duty to heal people. Besides, they've only temporarily alleviated their symptoms. Wait, I'll prescribe some more medicine for you to get from the pharmacy. Take one dose every day and persist for a month, and their neck and eyes will surely return to normal!"
"Thank you, divine doctor!"
Xiao Yu sang as she wrote the prescription, "However, to completely cure it, you'll need to be careful in the future. Avoid consuming too much sea salt, and remember that the constant humidity by the sea isn't good for a child's growth. Otherwise, even if we cure him this time, if these conditions persist, it will harm his body in the long run."
Our ancestors have always lived by the sea. If we weren't here, where else would we go My husband passed away years ago. I have aging parents-in-law to care for and young children to feed. As a single woman, all I can do is do some small jobs by the sea to support my family. If we moved away, how could I, a helpless woman, support my entire family The woman's words were cut short as she burst into tears. If it weren't for her husband's death, leaving them as an orphaned widow, she wouldn't have been forced to work by the sea with her young children, carrying salt every day. Her two children wouldn't have suffered from hunger and eaten salt to fill their stomachs, leading to such a dreadful illness.
Xiao Yu Ge listened and fell silent. Having grown up in the Xiang Mansion with a life of luxury, she rarely knew that people outside lived such impoverished lives. Just hearing about it was heartbreaking.
"Divine doctor, I am eternally grateful for saving my life. I have nothing to repay you. This is all the money I have left. I don't know if it's enough for your fee. If it isn't, please leave your address. Even if I can't pay now, when my two children grow up, they will repay you." The woman said as she pulled out a few pieces of silver wrapped in cloth from her body.yone. However, in these past few days, the old lady found out the truth and, heartbroken, fell ill."Actually, Lan'er isn't the first girl from our village to disappear. This month alone, five girls ha...
