After several days of free clinic, Lin Yi was so tired that her whole body ached.
She directly gave herself a few injections.
There seemed to be more than a hundred households in this village, and so many people appeared out of nowhere.
"Cai Yue, there are so many people in your village."
"Sister Yi, many people today are not from our village."
Cai Yue stared curiously at the silver needle on Lin Yi's arm. It would vibrate continuously when inserted into his body.
Lin Yi sighed.
"Are people from other villages very close to here?"
"It's not very close. The nearest Zhujin Lane is dozens of miles away from us."
"What! Then how do they know there is a free clinic here?"
"I heard that Aunt Fan ran to the neighboring village to tell her."
Lin Yi sneered, how could Aunt Fan be so idle?
But Lin Yi remembered Aunt Fan, Fan Yue'e who was pulled by her man on the first day of the free clinic.
Fan Yuee is not a bad person who gossips, she just likes to gossip in the streets.
Because everyone in the village had gone to the free clinic, she ran to the neighboring village to find someone to talk to.
This chat attracted people from other villages.
Lin Yi is also famous in Qifeng Village.
On the fifth day of the free clinic, she saw many familiar faces, which turned out to be people who had come to see the doctor two days ago.
Instead of seeing a doctor, those people come directly to buy medicine kits.
"The one with the red rope!"
"I want the green rope!"
Lin Yi curled her lips in a self-deprecating tone. If she had known better, she might as well have collected more medicinal materials.
However, the people in the village are also simple. They voluntarily gave Lin Yi more silver coins after drinking it.
After all, compared with drug stores, Lin Yi's medicine kits are too cheap.
What surprised Lin Yi the most was the honest-looking man who shouted directly in front of everyone: "Fellow folks, Dr. Yi's medicine packs are too cheap, at least two to one pack, don't you think so?"
"yes!"
"right!"
As a result, Lin Yi's medicine packs were inexplicably sold by the man for two to one pack.
Should he be given a commission?
Lin Yi was a little confused.
But then the man handed over a piece of silver.
"Doctor Yi, your medicine is really good. I didn't expect that at such a young age, you have such great medical skills. Can you give me ten packs?"
Cai Yu turned his hand and put the silver into the purse, holding it carefully in his arms.
It was the largest silver ingot she had ever seen.
Cai Yue hesitated for a moment and handed over ten packets of medicine.
Only Lin Yi was left messy in the wind.
That ingot of silver must be at least fifty taels!
Before leaving, the man said earnestly: "Doctor Yi, as long as he is upright and kind-hearted, his appearance will not affect other people's recognition of him."
"..."
Lin Yi laughed a few times, not knowing how to answer.
It turns out that in the eyes of others, I look ugly...
She was immediately aggrieved. She didn't want to show her face, so she didn't dare to take off her gray scarf to drink water.
You should make a scar and stick it on your face to save yourself the trouble!
However, these villagers also made Lin Yi feel that the folk customs were simple, and she couldn't help but feel that she could integrate into the life of the ancients.
Finally the last day of the free clinic arrived.
She is the most relaxed today, because almost no one comes to see a doctor, they all come to ask for prescriptions.
She couldn't buy medicine the day before yesterday, so she wrote a lot of prescriptions.
There were no printers in ancient times, so you could only write by hand one by one.
It's a pity that neither Cai Yue nor Cai Yu can write.
In fact, the prescription contains very little content, just a few herbs, but Lin Yi is not good at writing calligraphy.
The sitting posture is wrong, and the pen holding posture is even worse.
While others could write two pieces of paper, she could only write one.
But she did write very carefully.
Not many of the villagers were literate, and no one complained about her ugly words.
Lin Yi took off her mask and wiped the sweat from her face.
It's finally over!
The old man just now was the last person at her free clinic, but she knew that he just wanted to buy medicine kits.
It's a pity that I really don't have the energy to prepare the medicine kit, and the prescriptions I wrote have already been distributed.
Seeing Cai Yue and Cai Yu skillfully helping him clean up, Lin Yi weighed the money bag beside him.
The harvest is plentiful and the world is invincible!
She happily pulled the two of them and said, "Let's go shopping!"
"Sister Yi, why do you wear a gray scarf?"
Lin Yi touched Cai Yu's head.
"My sister is prone to coughing, so she likes to wear a gray towel to block dust."
"oh……"
Cai Yu nodded in realization.
Cai Yue looked suspicious. There was no dust on the gravel road in the village, and few horses passed by.
Where did the ash come from?
Lin Yi took Cai Yue and Cai Yu to the shops in the town several times.
Unexpectedly, the shops in the town are full of Chinese New Year flavor.
Many shops have written instructions on when they will close and when they will open.
The ancients had so long annual holidays that some shops were closed.
"Cai Yue, what does this shop sell?"
The Li's Shop in front of me says it will close on the third day of September and open on the fifth day of January in the 31st year of the Ming Dynasty.
This holiday is really confusing.
Cai Yue shook his head.
"I don't know what is sold here, and Yu'er only came here in October."
Lin Yi patted his head.
I returned to ancient times in October, and it was only the end of November now, and these two children had arrived not long ago.
She glanced at this commercial street. In fact, she had visited this generation when she first came to Itazhu.
Just because I wasn't familiar with it, I didn't go here.
There are also several inns here.
A few people were shopping while shopping, but unfortunately the manpower was limited, so they bought some New Year's goods and sent them back immediately.
Shop again, buy again.
Although I am a little tired, it feels best to make money and spend it yourself.
"Sister Yi, I want to buy a lantern."
Lin Yi saw a cart filled with lanterns.
It's quite pretty.
"Cai Yu, which lantern do you like?"
"this."
Cai Yu pointed to a rabbit-shaped lantern.
The two long ears are lifelike.
"Seller, how much does this cost?"
"Five taels of silver."
"Okay, store owner, I'll take this."
Lin Yi went to touch her purse and found that the purse around her waist was gone.
Depend on!
Damn men's clothing!
Why are men's clothing designed to hang purses around the waist?
Lin Yi wanted to cry but had no tears. Although she didn't have all her belongings, she still had a lot of money.
Was it lost or stolen?
Cai Yue noticed that Lin Yi's waist was empty and knew that his wallet was gone.
"Sister Yi, how about we go to the shop just now and ask?"
Lin Yi put down the rabbit lantern, and her heart broke when she saw Cai Yu's reluctant eyes.
"Cai Yu, sister still has money, let's go back and get it and then buy it again. Okay?"
Cai Yugang wanted to nod, but shook his head again.
Five taels of silver is not small money.
Lin Yi could naturally see what she was thinking. Although she also had to worry about her livelihood, she could definitely afford to spend the money.
Several people searched all the way to the shop where they were just now, but did not find the purse.
And the shop was closed.
Lin Yi sighed.
She thought it was most likely stolen because she rarely dropped things.
What's more, the purse is so heavy that you will notice if you drop it.
But, who stole it?
If he is caught, he will be beaten to death!
At this time a man came over.
"This... Young Master, is this your wallet?"
Lin Yi raised his head and glanced at the man in front of him.
He is half a head taller than himself and has a gentle look.
Although the light was dim, it could be seen that the man's facial features were very delicate.
Lin Yi took the purse and quickly bowed.
"Thank you sir. How do you know this is my purse?"
"I happened to be passing by just now, and as soon as I picked up my purse, I saw... the young master left this place, and I don't know where he went."
Lin Yi groaned and lowered his head.
She always felt something was wrong.
He didn't walk very fast, because Cai Yue and Cai Yu were children, so their steps would definitely not be very big.
If a man picks it up, he can definitely return it to him immediately!
"Sir, where did you pick it up?"
The man was slightly stunned, not knowing how to answer.
Lin Yi thought about it and felt that it was a bit rude. They gave her the wallet, so why bother asking about other things.
She smiled awkwardly and said: "Sir, I don't mean anything. I just felt that I was too careless and didn't even feel that things fell. Thank you."
The man also raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
The voice just now was clear and pleasant, and it revealed her identity as a woman.
The man didn't tell the truth because he already knew that Lin Yi was a woman.
"It's a small effort, nothing worth mentioning."
Lin Yi thanked them again, and then took Cai Yue and Cai Yu to buy lanterns.
The front of the cart was brightly lit, and when she opened her purse she noticed a few dark stains on the bag.
Although the stain had dried, she was still keenly aware that something was wrong.
Put it to the tip of your nose and smell it, and it indeed smells faintly of blood.
Lin Yi stared blankly at the purse in his hand, unable to imagine what it had gone through.
Could it be that the man just now helped him catch the thief and snatch it back?
She shook her head again and told herself that it was just a matter of courage and there was no reason to hide it.
But I won’t see that man again anyway. There are so many unsolved mysteries in the world, why bother thinking so much.
"Sister Yi, what's wrong?"
Cai Yu held the jade rabbit lantern with a cheerful look on her face.
"Nothing, let's go home."
The man just now was still looking at Lin Yi not far away.
The scene of Lin Yi picking up the purse and putting it to the tip of his nose and smelling it also fell into his eyes.
Since he was a doctor, he would probably be able to distinguish those blood stains.
The man sighed.
This purse was indeed snatched back from the thief.
Unfortunately he accidentally killed the thief.
He doesn't like killing people.
It was just that the thief stabbed him with a dagger, and he killed the thief with his backhand just to protect himself.
When the man saw Lin Yi disappearing at the end of the road, he turned and left.
After Lin Yi returned, she immediately worked with the children to make new year's goods.
When Chen Mulan returned home, she saw that the rice vat was filled to the brim with rice, and there were three pieces of pickled pork legs piled beside it, as well as many vegetables.
This is?
She hurried to find Cai Yue.
"Ah Yue, what's going on in the woodshed?"
"Auntie, those are the New Year's goods that Sister Yi bought. She said she would give us a good New Year."
Chen Mulan froze on the spot, those things cost at least a hundred taels of silver, how could they let others spend money!
"Miss Yi, why did you buy so many things? I can't let you pay for this money. I don't have much here, just a few dozen taels. You can use it first."
Lin Yi shook his head and chuckled.
"Sister Mulan, do you think I will accept it?"
Chen Mulan clutched her purse and was speechless for a moment.
Miss Yi's eyes were so firm, as if she would never compromise on something she believed in.
What kind of woman is she?
Why come to Beijing?
Chen Mulan didn't say anything to Lin Yi. She had nothing to give back to her, so she made a sheepskin fur coat overnight.
Early the next morning, at dawn, Chen Mulan came to Lin Yi's room.
Lin Yi also got up very early, and it was finally time to prepare to go south.
"It's getting cold. I've made a cloak for you with sewing supplies. Don't mind it."
Chen Mulan carefully handed over the cloak in her hand. Although she felt that Lin Yi's clothes were plain and simple, she felt that she did not look like an ordinary person.
Lin Yi took over the sheepskin fur coat and was so moved that tears filled her eyes.
In fact, for her, the weather at this time was already very cold, but she did not have any clothes to keep out the cold.
Although the leather jacket in his hand is old and not complete sheepskin, Chen Mulan has sewn it very carefully, with no gaps at the joints.
"Sister Mulan, thank you. I will accept these clothes. If you hadn't taken me in, I wouldn't have been able to make money selling medicine. I just bought you some New Year's goods. I have nothing to give you."
The two chatted for a while, and Lin Yi agreed with her that if she came to the capital again in the future, she would definitely come see them.
When Chen Mulan turned around to call Cai Yue and Cai Yu, Lin Yi stuffed a hundred taels of silver under his pillow and hurried to the dock.
When she arrived at the dock and saw all kinds of ships, Lin Yi was instantly troubled.
There are no passenger ships here, they are all cargo ships.
The shore was full of bustling conversations.
Most of them were haggling over how much money it would cost to take the boat.
For Lin Yi, taking a boat is like opening a blind box. Not only do you have to bargain with the boatman, but you also have to worry about whether the other person is a bad person.
Finally, I saw an ordinary awning boat.
Lin Yi looked around at the cargo on the ship, which seemed to be a ship of cotton.
Her eyes were filled with excitement and she hurriedly jumped onto the bow of the boat.
"Brother and sister, can I go south with your ship?"
There was a middle-aged couple on the boat. The man stared at Lin Yi blankly, with an honest look on his face.
The woman was sitting in the cabin, looking at Lin Yi with a kind face.
Don't be a bad person!
Lin Yi prayed several times in his heart.
The man held up the hat on his head and looked at Lin Yi again.
He is short in stature and wears a turban, and his voice is so clear, as if he is still a teenager.
It was already the end of November, and most of the tourists were probably rushing home to celebrate the New Year.
"Sir, I can give you a little while, but we won't go south until we reach Shanyang. If you want to go south, why don't you find other ships? Or change to other ships when you get to Shanyang?"
Lin Yi immediately took out a map from his arms.
Shanyang is already more than half way away.
This guy doesn't sound like he cares about his own shipping fare, so he's probably not a bad person.
Anyway, I haven’t been anywhere in ancient times, so why not go to Shanyang to see it.
"Brother, I'll take your boat to Shanyang first. How much silver will it cost?"
The man glanced at his wife in the cabin and hesitated for a moment.
My wife is about to give birth, so it would be nice to make some money.
"Fifty taels."
Lin Yi thought for a moment. She had no idea about the fifty-tael fare.
It’s expensive or not, cheap or cheap, but it’s within what you can afford.
"How many days will it take to get to Shanyang?"
"Ten days."
Lin Yi took another look at the awning boat. It was separated by wooden boards and had two small toilets. Although it was simple, it could be done.
"Okay, can I pay you half in advance?"
The man waved his hand, thinking that this young man was quite interesting.
"No, you can settle the bill when you get to Shanyang."
"good."
Lin Yi put down her luggage and walked a few steps towards the cabin.
The boatman's wife took out a small stool from the cabin.
"Sir, give it."
Lin Yi took the small stool, but she didn't expect that the ordinary small stool also had carved corbels.
So exquisite!
She sat on a small stool and looked at the crowd on the pier.
The dock at this time was completely different from the scene more than ten days ago, as if it had spanned two eras.
One is a prosperous age, and the other is a sad age.
The boatman put away the anchor and prepared to sail.
As soon as they drove out of the pier, Lin Yi saw Chen Mulan running towards Cai Yue and Cai Yu.
Looking at the panting look, you can tell how fast they ran!
They kept waving their hands on the shore, and the two children shouted, "Sister Yi, you must come here next time you come to the capital!"
Lin Yi's eyes were filled with tears. Why were those two little kids running so fast? They weren't afraid of falling.
Chen Mulan specifically asked for leave from the owner of the big family today, intending to cook a delicious meal for Lin Yi. Unexpectedly, after finishing the meal, she saw that Lin Yi was no longer there.
It’s so heart-warming!
When she was cleaning up the bed, she saw the silver under the pillow and felt really sorry, so she hurriedly pulled the two children to the dock.
"I know, I will definitely go!"
Lin Yi also responded loudly.
As the boat sailed further and further away, the three people on the shore were still waving.
Lin Yi shed tears, and the eldest sister on the ship handed her a handkerchief.
"You are a girl, right?"
Only then did Lin Yi notice that the eldest sister in front of her was pregnant with Liujia, and it looked like she would give birth soon.
She wiped her tears and choked up: "When I go out, it's convenient to wear men's clothing."
