My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s - Chapter 134 - Chapter 134: Chapter 136: About to Get Rich

Chapter 134: Chapter 136: About to Get Rich

“Sisi’s here. Come to daddy.” Tang Zhijun wiped his hands on his clothes and reached out to hold Sisi – the way he felt holding her was different from when he held Tang Yuxin. Tang Yuxin was his niece, but Sisi, he considered as his own daughter. Proudly, he shot a glance at his elder brother.

See, Tang Zhijun would also be a father in future.

Tang Zhinian grabbed a white flour bread roll and ate it alongside some vegetables. His younger brother really seemed like a simple-minded person now.

“Did you finish your homework?” He patted his daughter’s head. He had been so busy lately that he hadn’t had time for his daughter, wonderinf if she had done her homework properly. Nowadays, students had a lot of homework. As for him, he never went to school, so he wasn’t aware of his child’s homework contents. However, his Xinxin was a good girl, she never bothered him about her homework.

“Yep, it’s done,” Tang Yuxin poured a cup of water for her dad and placed it on the table. She had no problems with primary school homework. For her, primary school homework was something she could do with her eyes closed, a matter of minutes.

She was only a second-grade primary student now. The school was old fashioned, with worn-out desks and chairs, teachers that speak in a northwest accent, and primary school students who recited AOE while their noses dripped.

She stretched out her hand, her small, tender fingers showing no calluses. They were plump to touch with a few indentations on the back of her hand.

She wasn’t suffering from frozen hands.

In her previous life, by this time, she would have had frostbitten hands already. As a doctor, she needed to protect her hands. She soaked them in herbal water every day to prevent frostbite.

Her hands weren’t made for getting frostbitten, but for saving people.

It was Chen Zhong who insisted on it. He said that those who learned the Chen-style acupuncture must have flexible fingers and couldn’t suffer any damage.

She once wondered why it mattered if her fingers suffered frostbite, looked ugly, or how they affected administering acupuncture. She didn’t understand the connection.

After all, whether it’s a white cat or a black cat, as long as it can catch rats, isn’t it a good cat?

And no matter whether the fingers are ugly or beautiful, as long as they can hold a needle or a scalpel, they are still good doctors and good physicians, aren’t they?

Chen Zhong merely glanced at her.

“Chen-style rejuvenation acupuncture technique is not only for saving people but also pleasing to the eye. If your hands look ugly, how can you administer acupuncture?”

It was only then that Tang Yuxin realized that even if your hands were ugly, you couldn’t be a good doctor.

Sometimes when administering acupuncture, good-looking fingers were also necessary.

They managed to renovate their home quickly. In just over a month, all the windows were installed. After installing a few basic pieces of furniture, it was ready to be occupied.

Tang Zhinian practically used up all their household savings, regardless of whom Tang Zhijun was marrying, he provided the best of everything, including expensive furniture. There was no opt for inexpensive items.

But this only made Zhang Xiangcao feel more guilty. She felt that she didn’t deserve Tang Zhijun. After all, he was a single young man who had never been married, while she was a divorcee with a child.

He wasn’t marrying a divorced woman, but a decent unmarried young woman. So, she felt profoundly unworthy.

However, no one in the Tang family ever despised her. They even gave her all the face and respect she deserved.

What she didn’t know was that Tang Zhijun’s health condition also made Tang Zhinian feel guilty. Thus, he thought he should treat her well since it was they who were somewhat guilty.

Tang Yuxin carried a bamboo basket on her back. After the morning dew had dried, she went into the mountains to gather herbs. She had been doing this for four years. This familiar path, almost a second nature to her.

From time to time, she dug out the herbs nearby. If they were useful, she would throw them into her bamboo basket. From morning till now, she had almost half a basket full of herbs. These herbs were enough to treat common diseases.

She was considering whether she could go deeper into the forest– maybe she could find something good.

Most of the villagers lived off the land, but according to the village elders, in the beginning, villagers relied on this mountain. The mountain was rich in treasures, aside from the wild beasts, and various valuable herbs.

However, now fewer people go up the mountain. Everyone was too busy farming, and the road to the mountain was rugged and hard to travel. So, in recent years, no villagers had found anything on the mountain.

But she believed that there must be something good in the mountain because Chen Zhong had dug up several mountain ginsengs. Mountain Ginseng was expensive at the moment. After all, they were life-saving medicines, so regardless of the time, medicinal herbs were always in high demand.

Of course, not everyone can gather medicinal herbs. At least, as far as she knew, among the nearby villages, only Chen Zhong used to sell herbs before, and now there was her.

She put down the bamboo basket, squatted down, and picked a plant with red leaves, putting it in her mouth. There was a slight spicy sensation.

“This is it.”

This herb was very common, but there were many similar ones. If you only judged by their shape and colour, it was easy to make mistakes. What set this herb apart was its taste – the leaves had a spicy flavour.

She carefully used her little hoe to pluck the medicinal plants by their roots and put them in the bamboo basket.

Li Tang Village was back towards the mountain, which was the village’s greatest asset. Not only did it supply mountain spring water, but it also flowed into the small river at the entrance of the village, which was full of fish. No matter when, the people of Li Tang Village never starved as long as they were near this mountain and this river. Even in the most famine-stricken eras, nobody starved to death.

Tang Yuxin stood up and proceeded. There were few people here, and there was no road ahead. Thus, after taking a few steps, she hesitated to continue. On the one hand, she was afraid of getting lost; on the other hand, she was worried that there might be wildlife that she was not aware of. Although it was unlikely that there would be fierce beasts like lions and tigers, there might be snakes.

She wasn’t afraid, but she was a little repulsed by these cold and soft creatures.

She adjusted the bamboo basket on her back and turned to leave when a particular plant caught her keen eye.

Could this be…?
