Chapter 343 Koi Life 3
When he arrived in the town, Ji Yanli looked at the clinic which was three times bigger than the shop next door and there were quite a few people inside. He couldn't help but sigh that medical skills were always very profitable.
Thinking of this, he had an idea.
The original body was already fifteen years old. Apart from being taught to read by his father when he was a child, he had never read any books or attended a proper school. It was not realistic to talk about taking the imperial examination at this time, and the family conditions did not allow it.
It would be better for him to do a job that he is good at and can make money, which is more comfortable than working in the fields for a lifetime.
Thinking of this, Ji Yanli looked at his legs quietly.
Originally, I wanted to suffer less, but he had to have a legitimate reason to stay. My legs, oh legs, I'm sorry to bother you to hurt them a little more.
Uncle Ji and two other villagers worked together to carry him into the clinic. As soon as he entered, a scent of medicine hit his nose. They walked along the aisle and passed a carved screen. Ji Yanli was placed on the couch in the clinic.
A doctor came to treat him.
After examining Ji Yanli's leg and taking his pulse, he quickly wrote out a prescription and gave it to the medicine boy beside him to get the medicine.
Then he told Uncle Ji that Ji Yanli had injured his bones and should not move for a short period of time. It would be best for him to stay in the clinic first.
There are several rooms behind the clinic that are specially for the injured to stay temporarily, which is also convenient for doctors to observe and treat them at any time.
Uncle Ji nodded at first, but then his face turned pale when he thought about the money he would have to spend.
Ji Feiwan tugged at her father's sleeve. She knew that her father was worried about the money, but her brother's leg injury could not be delayed. At worst, they could just go and borrow some money!
Ji Yanli said: "Uncle San, that wild boar..."
Uncle Ji already knew that Ji Yanli's leg was injured by a wild boar, but he didn't know that the wild boar had been killed by Ji Yanli. Ji Yanli was brought back first, and there were still people guarding the wild boar, so it was time to carry it back.
The wild boar meat can also be sold for money. The wild boar is strong and it is estimated to be about 300 kilograms. Some of it can be shared with the villagers who carried it up the mountain. After selling it, there will be three taels of silver. Ji Yanli calculated the prices and thought that the cost of the wild boar's legs should be enough to make some money.
When Uncle Ji heard this, he also breathed a sigh of relief, and his expression finally looked better.
It's not that he is unwilling to spend money on his nephew, but his eldest brother has borrowed all the money they can from home for his studies. Even if he asks others now, they may not give them money.
"Then you stay here to treat the disease, and Uncle San will go back and deal with the wild boar."
"Uncle San, you don't have to share the meat with the Zhang family. It was Zhang Tiezhu who injured my leg. After I recover, I will make him give me an explanation!"
Uncle Ji nodded: "Don't worry, I'll ask your aunt to go to his house later. Even if you don't pay, you must make his family's reputation suffer!"
Uncle Ji didn't stay any longer. The old man stuffed some copper coins into his pocket when he came. It wasn't enough, but it was enough for the medicine prescribed that day. He promised the clinic that he would come to pay the money in the next two days, and then he gave Ji Yanli many careful instructions before taking Ji Feiwan back.
When she went back, the little girl's eyes were still red. She wanted to stay and take care of Ji Yanli, but Ji Yanli waved her away.
He just wanted to stay in the clinic, not really weak enough to need care. There was a lot of housework to do. If Ji Feiwan stayed here, Uncle Ji and the old man would have something to do.
……
Shangjian Village, Zhang family.
After learning that Ji Yanli was injured by a wild boar, Zhang Daya raised her eyebrows.
"Daya, you said that if Ji Yanli didn't get hurt, I would be the one who got hurt. Is that true?"
"Yes, I dreamed that it was you who had your leg trampled by a wild boar when you went up the mountain this time. I didn't want you to go, but you have a calamity in your life, and if it doesn't happen here, it will happen somewhere else. That's why I told you to push Ji Yanli when you encounter danger, so that he can protect you from the disaster."
Zhang Tiezhu still felt a little guilty. Ji Yanli came back to save him, but he wanted to harm him. He was a little restless now, fearing that the Ji family would cause trouble for him.
Zhang Daya didn't care: "He said you pushed it, so it was you who pushed it? Who saw it?"
"Just refuse to admit it. He's been hurt, after all. It's just a few words. It won't hurt anyone. Others will just think he's hurt and can't accept it, so he's just making random accusations. He'll be fine after a while."
Zhang's father and mother didn't say a word. Although they also felt that this was not fair, it was better for others to get hurt than for their son to get hurt. At worst, if the Ji family had any problems in the future, they would just help out more.
Zhang Daya took a bite of the white flour bun, and her not-so-pretty eyes were full of indifference. She didn't care at all about the people in the Ji family, or rather, she only cared about her own family. It was an honor for others to protect her family from disaster.
She didn't dwell on it anymore and talked to Zhang Tiezhu about something else: "Brother, last time you said you wanted to help in the kitchen at a restaurant, I think it's possible."
"Really?"
Zhang Tiezhu grinned, then hesitated: "That guy said he could get five taels of silver by using his connections, I'm afraid..."
Although he trusted what his sister said very much, he was still afraid that if it didn't work out, the family's money would be wasted.
"What are you afraid of? I said I can do it, I can do it."
Zhang Tiezhu glanced at his parents. His father drank a sip of egg soup without the egg and nodded. "Since your sister has agreed, then go! Ask your mother to get you the money."
In addition to their family of four, the Zhang family originally had Old Man Zhang and Old Lady Zhang above them. Zhang's father also had two brothers. Zhang's father was the second oldest, stuck in the middle, the least favored one, and was considered the dullard in the family. He worked a lot but got little in return. Even Zhang's mother was often bullied by the two sisters-in-law.
A few years ago, Zhang Tiezhu had a high fever and wanted to see a doctor, but Old Man Zhang refused to take any money. Old Mrs. Zhang kept slapping her thigh and crying poor, her two brothers kept silent, and the rest just watched the show.
Zhang's father gritted his teeth and went out to borrow money from others. When he sent his son to the clinic, Zhang Tiezhu was already delirious with fever and almost died.
From then on, he was completely disappointed with his family. At his daughter's persuasion, he found a way to divide the family, and his life became better.
There was nothing wrong with the decision my daughter made. It was all thanks to my daughter that we were able to build a new house.
Five taels of silver is all the family has at present, but it is still worth it if it can find a job for my son to make a living in the town.
Zhang's mother responded.
The family of four was in a harmonious atmosphere when suddenly sharp curses were heard outside.
"Zhang Tiezhu! You're such a heartless wretch! My son Yan was so kind as to save you, but you've ruined him like this! And you're still in the mood to stay home and eat, aren't you afraid of choking to death? Choking to death! Burning to death!"
"No wonder everyone says your family is full of wicked people. I didn't believe it before, but now I finally see it! Fellow villagers! Anyone close to the Zhang family should be careful! If they can harm my son Yan, they can harm you the next day! This family is full of evil hearts!"
The Zhang family members looked at each other, put down their bowls, and looked unhappy.
They recognized that it was Aunt Ji's voice, and she had come to their house to ask for an explanation.
"Don't pay attention to her," Zhang Daya particularly disliked the village women. Their voices were so loud that they could shake the sky. In her world, if anyone dared to be disrespectful to her, she would have sent that person to hell long ago.
