Rebirth of the Abandoned Woman: Godly Doctor Taizi Fei Chapter 1 Nine Yin Nine Yang Detoxification Needle [1]
[TLNote: If you like what I do, consider !]
Whether it was modern or ancient people, one likedto use âwith four bare walls for a homeâ to describe poverty, but Xia YuanQiudid not agree.
At least âwith four bare walls for a homeâ there werefour walls. But this house she was living in had three and a half walls only. Therewere holes everywhere. It made no difference whether or not there was a roof. Atany angle in the house, one could see the stars in the sky.
This person was really poor!
Xia YuanQiu constantly comforted herself. This housewas only lacking a piece of glass compared to modern wealthy peopleâsglasshouses. It was very good, not bad at all.
Her fanciful thoughts were interrupted by a loudcrying. She didnât have to listen closely. This high-pitched and sharp soundlike a pig being slaughtered, who else would be besides the Aunt Zhang next door?
Her younger brother who was sleeping next to her, rubbedhis eyes and got up. âJie [older sister], whatâs going on with Aunt Zhangâsfamily? Is something wrong?â
Xia YuanQiu shrugged, âI donât know.â
Xia YuanHao and the little fatty next door were goodfriends. He always snuck food from home to sneakily give to YuanHao. XiaYuanQiu also really liked the little fatty, but Aunt Zhang was not a goodperson. She bullied her and YuanHao for having no parents, using sharp andunkind words. She was not interested in such people so she had no intentions ofgoing next door to inquire about the neighbors.
âGo sleep quickly. Didnât we say we would go to themountains tomorrow? If you donât sleep now, you wonât wake up in time.â XiaYuanQiu urged her three-years-younger brother to sleep. But the crying soundsnext door were getting louder and louder.\nXia YuanHao rolled off the bed. The ten-year-old himwas already very tall, almost as tall as his jiejie. âNo, I have to check onlittle fatty.â YuanHao then turned and ran away.
Xia YuanQiu was worried Xia YuanHao would be bulliedin little fattyâs home so she followed along.
The Zhang household was noisy. Everyone was speakinglowly about what was going on. But those sounds were suppressed under Old Zhangâswifeâs ghosts wailing and wolves howling noises.
YuanQiu crowded with YuanHao into the front of the onlookers.She saw Old Zhangâs wife crying on the ground, with little fatty lying next toher. He had a pale complexion and his left foot in the air was obviouslyswollen bigger than his right. His instep had two obvious red spots. The areas surroundingthe red spots started turning purple.
Little fatty was bitten by a poisonous snake. The doctorswho came were helpless. They told Aunt Zhang little fatty was beyond saving andto prepare funeral arrangements. Thatâs why Aunt Zhang was crying miserably.
Old Zhang and his wife were married for ten yearsbefore they had little fatty. They couldnât dote on him enough. With suchterrible news, how could they live?
YuanHao understood the events. He looked at theunconscious little fatty and started crying with snot and tears running downhis face.
YuanQiu sighed and looked at little fattyâs whiteface. âConsider yourself lucky you met me today. Or you would definitely loseyour little life.â YuanQiu turned and walked in front of the middle-ageddoctor. She opened his medicine bag that was on the floor. She rummaged andactually found a needle pouch. In this era, the needle pouch was regarded as anessential item.
âHey â what is this girl doing?â The middle-ageddoctor saw YuanQiu holding his needle pouch and hastened to reach out.
YuanQiu nimbly dodged and slightly smiled. âDoctor,let me borrow your silver needles first. A life is at stake. Iâll apologize toyou after I save little fatty.â\nThe middle-aged doctor coldly sneered, âYou?ââHow about we make abet? If I can save little fatty, you give this needle pouch to me. If I canâtsave him, Iâll pay you ten needle pouches. How about it?â YuanQiu smiled at themiddle-aged doctor. A pair of bright eyes flashed a dazzling light on her darkface. The middle-aged doctor who had just thought she was ugly suddenly feltshe was pleasing to the eye.\n
