Tang Jiancheng and Tang Jianbing held Xiaoqi and Xiaoba in their arms, talking and laughing all the way, and returned to Daping Village unknowingly.
As soon as I walked to the door of my house, I heard the screams of my elder sister coming from inside.
"Ah! It hurts so much! Grandma, can I stop sewing?"
"No! We have to sew! Aren't you very capable? Don't you want to show off? What's the pain? Doctor Yuan continues to sew her!"
"Grandma, I was wrong, I will never dare to do it again!"
"You know you're wrong now? What did you do earlier! It's too late! As the eldest sister, you should be severely punished! Doctor Yuan will sew her up hard!"
"Ah! It hurts! Grandpa doctor, can you please be gentle? It really hurts!"
"Be patient, you'll be fine soon!"
This is a somewhat old and kind voice.
Hearing this voice, Tang Jiancheng immediately knew that this person was the only village doctor in the village, Yuan Shize. He was a capitalist who was sent to Daping Village for re-education for some reasons.
Because he knew some medical skills, he was not persecuted back then and got along well with the villagers. Later, he never went back for unknown reasons, so he stayed in Daping Village and became a village doctor.
In his previous life, Tang Jiancheng remembered that this person never left Daping Village until his death.
At this moment, I heard his voice ringing in my home. Combined with the previous conversation, it was obvious that the eldest sister was injured and was suturing the wound.
But when Tang Jiancheng opened the door and saw the scene inside, he was instantly furious!
"Who hurt you like this? And who made you kneel down facing the wall?"
Tang Jiancheng asked these two sentences almost through gritted teeth.
"I made them kneel down."
Yuan Yuezhu said, "Jian Jiancheng, you don't know that they actually ran into the mountains to dig up badgers without permission! They must be severely punished, otherwise, their tails will be raised to the sky!"
"Digging badgers?" Tang Jiancheng was slightly startled.
"Here, those are the three badgers they dug up!"
Yuan Yuezhu pointed to the sacks and badgers that had been placed in the corner, "I almost made myself disabled for three badgers. This is so stupid! If I really become disabled, how will I get married in the future? Jiancheng, You must give them a good beating to make them remember this lesson!"
Tang Jiancheng glanced at the badger, then walked to his daughters, pulled them up one by one, and inspected their injuries, almost suffocating with heartache.
Trying to hold back the sadness in his heart, Tang Jiancheng tried his best to ask in a calm and gentle tone: "Tell dad, why are you going to dig up badgers?"
The third sister raised her head and glanced at Tang Jiancheng, then quickly lowered her head, "The fourth sister and I found badger hair yesterday, and found the badger hole today. We originally wanted to ask you and Uncle Six to dig it, but you and Uncle Six found the badger hair yesterday. Uncle Six and Grandpa are not at home, so we went by ourselves!"
Yuan Yuezhu said loudly: "The badger is hibernating and can't run away! Can't you wait a moment? You have already waited all night. Will you die if you wait another night? Do you have to make yourself look like this? It's unlucky enough to give birth to a bunch of losers, and yet you're so careless! If I had known better, I should have strangled you one by one when you were just born!"
Upon hearing these words, Tang Jiancheng clenched his fists instantly, holding back the anger in his heart.
Tell yourself, this is your mother, don’t be impulsive.
He wanted to talk to his mother with a smile, but he really couldn't laugh at the moment. He could only say expressionlessly: "Mom, this is my family matter. I hope you won't interfere in it anymore, okay?"
Hearing this, Yuan Yuezhu's eyes widened instantly, "Jian Jiancheng, what do you mean by this? Are you blaming me for mismanaging your daughter? Who am I doing this for? Not for you! They are all You are a loser, no matter how strict you are..."
Before Yuan Yuezhu could finish speaking, Tang Jiancheng said coldly to Tang Jianbing: "Jianbing, take mom away quickly, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself."
"Jian Jiancheng, what do you mean? What can't you control? Do you still want to hit me?"
Yuan Yuezhu cursed, "You white-eyed wolf, I worked so hard to raise you, and this is how you treat me? You can't give birth to a son, and I'm heartbroken, you..."
"Jianbing!" Tang Jiancheng shouted.
"Mom, let's go quickly and don't cause any trouble here!"
Without any explanation, Tang Jianbing picked up Yuan Yuezhu and left.
"Tang Jiancheng, you white-eyed wolf, you will be struck by lightning! Just pamper your daughters. Sooner or later, you will regret it!"
Yuan Yuezhu's curses continued to come.
Tang Jiancheng turned a deaf ear and came to the kitchen, where he saw Yuan Shize holding an embroidery needle to sew up the wound of the elder sister. The elder sister was sweating profusely in pain and her face was pale.
"Dr. Yuan, can't you use some anesthetic or something?" Tang Jiancheng asked.
Yuan Shize shook his head and said, "I don't have any anesthesia anymore."
"There is no anesthetic, why are you suturing? It's so painful that even adults can't bear it, how can a child stand it?"
"I don't want to sew. It's your mother who insists on forcing me to sew. She said that the children can hold on and reassures me that she can sew. But if I don't sew, she will... Anyway, I have the leverage in your mother's hands. Come on, I dare not not listen."
"Okay, now that my mother has left, you can leave too."
Tang Jiancheng was not curious or interested in what Yuan Shize said. He just wanted to take his daughters to the hospital.
After Yuan Shize left, Tang Jiancheng found a torch and borrowed a cart from his neighbor.
He put two thick quilts on the cart, then asked the eldest sisters to sit on the cart, and called Jian Bing over. No surprise, when he called Jian Bing, he was slapped by Yuan Yuezhu again. After a sudden curse, Tang Jiancheng pretended not to hear, and he and Jianbing pushed the trolley to the township health center again.
The doctor on duty is named Liu.
Seeing these two brothers again, Dr. Liu couldn't help but ask: "Did your family encounter some kind of plague today? Are things happening one after another?"
Tang Jiancheng sighed: "When people are unlucky, they can't even drink cold water without stuffing their teeth! Doctor Liu, please help me quickly and see how the injuries of my daughters are?"
Doctor Liu looked shocked, "Are these your daughters? How many daughters do you have?"
"nine."
"What?! Nine daughters?!" Dr. Liu was amazed, "Brother, you are amazing! I admire you!"
Although this guy talks a lot, his medical skills are indeed pretty good.
After a little inspection, he concluded that it was an injury from a badger. Fortunately, no bones were injured, just some skin injuries. However, to prevent infection, he suggested taking anti-inflammatory injections for a week.
Tang Jiancheng was also afraid of tetanus, rabies, etc. Unfortunately, there was no similar vaccine at this time. Even if there was, it would be very rare, at least in Sanchong Township and Shunbei County.
"Okay, Doctor Liu, I'll listen to you."
Tang Jiancheng asked again, "Do you think these wounds need to be sutured?"
Doctor Liu looked at it, shook his head and said, "It's best not to suture, otherwise it will leave a deep centipede scar. If it's a boy, it'll be fine. If it's a girl, the scar will be unsightly."
"However, the wounds on their hands and feet are a bit deep and long. Even if they are not sutured, they may leave scars, and they will also increase the chance of infection..."
At this point, Dr. Liu suddenly paused and then said, "Well...if you want to avoid scars, I can recommend a doctor to you. However, his medicine is a bit expensive, so you have to be mentally prepared." .”
"It's expensive, as long as it's effective, who is it?"
Tang Jiancheng asked quickly.
If he could leave no scars, no matter how expensive it was, he would give it a try.
