Hearing the patient’s words, Li Jin was silent for a while.
But he was okay, after all, he was poor. If he could make some money, with this, he would make it.
The shopkeeper seemed a little bit reluctant to hire him, this was a problem.
Just as he was thinking, the shopkeeper said, “Of course, after the farming work is done, Doctor Li will be here in July.”
The patient happily responded and said, “The young doctor’s surname is Li. My lady is now seven months pregnant. I will ask Doctor Li to take a look at her.”
After the patient left, the shopkeeper said, “Sure enough, Dr. Li’s reputation has been publicized. It’s really good!”
After a pause, he added, “I offended you before. I will give you one tael of silver for July and three taels for August and lunch at noon. Dr. Li, do you think it’s okay?”
Li Jin nodded in response.Afterward, Li Jin discussed with the shopkeeper about the working hours during the ‘internship period’ in July.
After all, at that time, the teenager would still be in confinement, so he could not leave the youth and the child at home.
Finally, it was decided that the working hours in July would be one hour a day and in August it would be two hours a day.
After the discussion was finished, Doctor Wu said that the person surnamed Song would like to thank Li Jin for his wife and son’s safety.
Li Jin thought for a while, and said, “No hurry. I will come to the clinic in July, and I will meet him then…”
“If he comes again recently, I have to trouble Doctor Wu to tell him that he should take care of his wife during this period, and it’s late to thank me later. “
Doctor Wu agreed.
Seeing that Li Jin was not complacent, the shopkeeper praised, “Doctor Li has good medical ethics. It is really brilliant that you are going to join my medical hall.”
Hearing this, Li Jin hurriedly waved his hand.
After another two days, it was finally the off day which came after every ten days of work.The day off was not only for the students in the school but also for the doctors in the medical clinic.
But Doctor Wu’s hometown was not near, so even if there was an off day, he would stay and study medicine in the inner hall.
The off day gave Li Jin time to go up the mountain to collect medicinal plants.
On the off day, Li Jin got up early and picked up three baskets of dry branches for firewood.
Then he went to pick up the medicinal plants, and sort them into different categories.
He had planned to take them to the medical hall an hour later.
Before leaving, the teenager helped him arrange the hemp rope that was holding the back basket and then gave him a white handkerchief.
The material was the cheapest linen, but the four sides of the handkerchief were sewn with fine stitches, which looked particularly small and delicate.
“If A’Jin is sweating on the road, he can use this handkerchief first. I can sew a few more if A’Jin needed it.”
In this era, scholars needed to carry handkerchiefs. After all, they also sweat. It would be too insulting to wipe it directly with their sleeves like a farmer.
Li Jin hadn’t paid any attention to this detail before.
When he was sweating profusely on the road, at that time, Li Jin missed modern tissue paper.
He always felt that something was missing around him.
After the youth reminded him, he discovered that the tissue paper was originally the substitute for the handkerchief.
And the handkerchief was more environmentally friendly.
Li Jin smiled and said, “This is the first time you sew something for me. I will keep it properly.”
The teenager thought this wasn’t the first time. He had sewn a white robe for him before, but at that time Li Jin didn’t want to wear it.
Oh, by the way, Li Jin was about to throw away the white robe, but he hid it.
He felt it was a pity that he kept hiding the robe in the storage compartment under the kitchen stove.
Recently, he didn’t know how Li Jin found that robe, and he kept wearing it to study.
He had also sewed a lot of things for Li Jin such as money purses and pencil cases, but without exception, Li Jin threw them away or simply ruined them.
What did Li Jin say at that time??
“If I wear something sewn by a ger, do I still have a face to walk in the town?”
