FH Chapter 46: 你姐我有办法！
Your sister, I have a solution!
In modern times, the hospital where Li Haitang was working did not accept patients with tuberculosis, but she remembered a fantastic formula while listening to a professor’s lecture.
Pig’s ear, messy hair, loquat tree, white wood, these are all authentic Miao ethnic group’s medicines from QianLing, anti-TB and insecticide, tonifying and cultivating the body as a whole, with strong curative effects.
The herbs all grow in the warm mountainous areas, and are definitely not found in the north, and then one more, rather embarrassing, Li Haitang only remembered the names of the herbs, and if they were renamed, there would be no way for her to recognise them.
“Pig’s ear and messy hair, I can ask someone to find them, loquat tree and white wood, the herbal medicine shop has them.”
Xiao LingChuan bowed his head in deep thought, he used to go to the Miao land to walk the life and death dart (escort job where goods sent under the protection of an armed escort), when he got people to send a few medicinal herbs, he could not use them, they were given to the brothers who walked the dart together. He did not expect that Li Haitang, even the Border City she had not even been there, yet she could have such insight.
“That’s really too great, if the herbs are complete, I’m 90% sure!”
Li Haitang cheered and knocked the table with her hand, “Chun Niang, we will leave at dawn. No matter what, first let’s get the medicinal herbs together, because brother-in-law’s illness can’t be delayed any longer!”
“Hai … Haitang, are you really sure?”
It’s not that Chun Niang didn’t believe Li Haitang, she had looked for no less than a hundred or so doctors, and every one of them said the same thing, telling her to prepare for the funeral as early as possible. She was afraid that she herself had auditory hallucinations.
“Yes.”
A few herbs on the prescription that Li Haitang and Xiao LingChuan described, in Da Qi, the names of the herbs didn’t change, so it was really fortunate or lucky.
“His family is in Lucheng [district of Wenzhou city Wēnzhōushì [温州市], Zhejiang], we only need one day to go over there.”
Lucheng (Lu City) is close to the border city. If you take another direction from Li Family Village and take a shortcut, more than half a day would be enough.
Xiao LingChuan had a few brothers who had shared the same life and death in Lucheng, and when he got married, he was supposed to inform his brothers as well.
He had already left a message for his master, but he didn’t know where his master was, so he shouldn’t be able to make it in time.
Early in the morning of the second day, the three of them left. Before they left, Chun Niang prepared a few packages, with pancakes, dried meat, loaded with almost all the food in it.
“Brother Xiao, let’s go to Fu Xiang Tea House first.”
Li Haitang touched the theater tickets in her pocket, in order to hurry up, she just missed the opportunity to watch the De Quanban performance, but the tickets could not be wasted, it had to be used to its maximum value.
At dawn, the streets and alleys were full of babel of voices, Fu Xiang Restaurant had just opened its doors, and a large number of people poured in, those who held the tickets had a smug look on their faces, while the rest held their heads and squatted in the corner and heave a sigh.
Li Haitang took his little brother Li Jin Hu to the teahouse to walk around, the theater stage is two meters high, the ground floor has tables, chairs and benches, and the best view is the first floor of the private room.
“Big Sister, our theater tickets are given by Xiao Tao Hong, our seat is directly facing the stage ah!”
Li Jin Hu was asleep last night and knew nothing about what was going on, and was disappointed to hear that his sister was in a hurry to get there.
“There will be opportunities later, Jin Hu, we won’t stay in the Northlands forever.”
Li Haitang stroked Li Jin Hu’s head, her mother said that before she would let them go to to search for her family, that she would go sooner or later, De Quanban’s theater tickets were hard to find in the Northland, when they arrived in Capital, it might not worth mentioning.
“But what about the theater tickets?”
Other people can’t grab that thing even by squeezing their heads (push against the crowd), it’s such a waste, Li Jin Hu meat pain, rushing is not urgent at the moment, at least stay to watch an opening.
“Haha, your sister, I have a way.”
Li Haitang mysteriously smiled, pulling Li Jin Hu to the back door, this time to the border city, buying things that cost more than twenty taels of silver. Twenty taels ah, enough for the village family’s expenses for two or three years, she spent it so lightly. Although Xiao LingChuan has family property accumulated over a long time; resources, but can not always be like this, only out but could not go in.
