After putting the wooden box and the pile of items into her storage pouch, Su Jinyue took out a few other wooden boxes. She opened them and realized that they were all gold bars.
She looked at the boxes of gold bars thoughtfully. She wanted to leave some gold bars for her Teacher before she left in case of emergencies. However, she could not tell her Teacher directly. Otherwise, with her Teacher’s temperament, he would definitely not want them.
Why don’t I find a place to bury the gold bars first? I’ll tell Teacher in the future. Let’s do it this way. Su Jinyue thought about it and decided. Tomorrow, she shall make a trip to the county to buy some daily necessities and clothes. Then, she would apply for a phone for the clinic. It would be more convenient to contact Teacher in the future.
At the thought of this, Su Jinyue put away the wooden boxes containing gold bars and took out a few pieces of jewelry that contained spiritual energy. Holding them in her hands, she entered cultivation mode.
As the sun gradually set, smoke rose from the kitchen chimneys of every household.
Su Jinyue left her cultivation and looked at the time. It was almost five in the afternoon. She stood up and walked out in high spirits.
When she arrived at the clinic, she saw that Xu Tiansheng and Fang Zhihong were busy concocting medicine for the villagers and taking their temperature. Due to the huge difference in temperature over the past few days, more and more villagers had caught a cold and had a fever.
“Dr. Su, you’re really a miracle doctor! If it weren’t for you, San Ni and her child would be in danger.” Upon seeing Su Jinyue, Auntie Liu walked over with a smile.
Su Jinyue smiled and shook her head. “Auntie Liu, why haven’t I seen you recently?” Auntie Liu had always been active in the village.
“My cousin got married so I went to live in the city for a few days. The wedding in the city is really different from our village. Apart from the extravagance, just the dishes on the table cost more than a hundred yuan. There was fish, meat, everything else. Look, I’ve gained several kilograms.” Madam Liu’s tone was full of bragging. When she came back today to tell Auntie Li and the rest about the wedding in the city, they all looked at her with envy. She was so proud in her heart.
Su Jinyue smiled and walked to the side to take a thermometer. “Auntie Liu, let me take your temperature.
“I’m not sick. I’m just here for a stroll. Alright, I’m going back to make dinner.” Auntie Liu smiled and waved her hand as she walked out of the clinic. In her heart, she still hoped that Dr. Su could get together with her cousin. She said all this to let Dr. Su know how different life in the city was from their village. Perhaps she would change her mind after hearing it.
Xu Tiansheng turned around and said to Su Jinyue, “Jin Yue, go and make dinner. Zhihong and I will be fine here.”
“Okay!” Su Jinyue replied and walked towards the back. After working for two whole hours, Xu Tiansheng and Fang Zhihong finally finished seeing all the patients.
Walking into the main hall, they saw that Su Jinyue had already prepared dinner.
After washing his hands with water from the basin, Xu Tiansheng walked to the table and sat down. He looked at the dishes on the table and was surprised. “Why are there so many dishes today? “Teacher has been tired these few days. This is to nourish you.” Su Jinyue brought a pot of soup to the table. She had found some food in her storage pouch so she took it out.
“You!”Xu Tiansheng smiled with gratification and affection.
Su Jinyue sat down opposite Xu Tiansheng and helped him pick up a piece of cured meat. “Teacher, try this. It’s delicious.”
“Mm!” Xu Tiansheng smiled as he nodded his head. He was well aware of what ingredients there were at home, but he knew that Jin Yue would not mess around, so he would not ask her where these dishes came from. “Teacher, I have to make a trip to the county tomorrow. Do you have anything you need to buy?” Su Jinyue asked. She planned to buy some new clothes for her Teacher when she went to the county this time. It had been so many years, but her Teacher had always been wearing the same two pieces of clothing. Who knew how many times he had patched them up?
“I’m not lacking anything.” Xu Tiansheng swallowed the cured meat in his mouth and said with a smile. The vegetables were all grown by him. It was enough as long as he had enough clothes to wear. He wasn’t a young man who needed to dress up.
“Zhihong, do you need me to bring anything?” Su Jinyue asked Fang Zhihong.
Fang Zhihong pondered for a moment. Then, he took out ten dollars and passed it to Su Jinyue. “Bring me two books. I’ll write the titles for you later.” When he was free, he had nothing else to do. He would read some books to kill time.
“Okay!” Su Jinyue took the money. After being together for so long, she understood Fang Zhihong. If she did not accept the money, even if she bought the books, he would not take it. Looking at Fang Zhihong’s temperament, his family background should not be too bad. He was willing to come to Shangxin Village to be a village doctor and gave up the chance to be a doctor at the hospital. This meant that he was not someone who cared about money.
The sky had just turned bright when Su Jinyue arrived at the village entrance. Every morning, Uncle Li would arrive at the village entrance punctually and bring the villagers from Shangxin Village to the county. There were no shops in Shangxin Village, so they had to go to the county to buy whatever they wanted.
Sometimes, when someone wanted to book the cart, they would inform Uncle Li beforehand. Uncle Li would also inform the villagers overnight.
“Dr. Su, are you going to the county too?” A few villagers who were going to the county greeted Su Jinyue warmly when they saw her. Ever since Su Jinyue saved San Ni, her reputation in Shangxin Village had risen as well, even surpassing her Teacher, Xu Tiansheng
Su Jinyue smiled and nodded at everyone. “I’m going to buy some things.” “In that case, you’re just in time. There’s a market in the county today. There are stalls selling all kinds of things. If you don’t know how to bargain, we’ll bargain for you,” Wang Xiaofang said with a smile. Everyone was bound to fall sick some time. There was no harm in building a good relationship with Dr. Su.
“I heard that there will be jeans and woolen coats, that city people love to wear, being sold in the market this time,” Liu Daya said in anticipation. The last time she went to the county, she had seen a lady wearing jeans. The shape of her legs looked amazing. She had also gone to the store to see jeans, but they were shockingly expensive. If there were cheap jeans for sale at the market this time, she would buy one.
“A pair of jeans doesn’t look as good as a pair of leggings. Young ladies have no taste.” Auntie Wu shook her head in disdain. She had seen people in the county wear jeans before. The pants were so big and looked stiff. She really didn’t understand what youngsters these days were thinking. They actually liked those kinds of pants.
“Auntie Wu, that’s called fashion. You don’t understand,” Liu Daya retorted.
“I don’t understand? The salt I’ve eaten is more than the rice you have eaten. How can I not understand?” Auntie Wu snorted.
“Uncle Li is here. Let’s get in the cart.” Seeing Uncle Li slowly walking over with his bullock cart, Wang Xiaofang tugged on Liu Daya, who was about to speak.
Uncle Li stopped the bullock cart in front of all of them. When he saw Su Jinyue, his wrinkled face immediately revealed a delighted smile. “Dr. Su, you’re here too?” That day, when Dr. Su saved San Ni, he saw it clearly. If it wasn’t for Dr. Su, San Ni and her son would have been dead. Hence, he respected Dr. Su very much.
