Chapter 290 Selling cute (two more)

Gu Jiao waited at the gate of the Imperial College for a long time and did not see Xiaojingkong coming out. After asking the guards, she learned that school was not over, so she decided to wait.

But before a while, the little third son hurriedly rushed over: ”Miss Gu! There is a patient who is in urgent need of a medical appointment. The doctors in the medical clinic have all gone to the medical clinic. Only Doctor Lu is in the medical clinic, but he can't go away now. There are patients in the hospital!”

”Understood, I'll go to see the doctor.” Gu Jiao got in the little third son's carriage, first went back to Bishui Hutong to get a small medicine box, and then went to the hospital to meet the young guy who had come to ask the doctor.

The young man was wearing a commoner, and he didn't look like he was from a wealthy man. He came here by someone else's carriage, and when he returned, he sat on the outer seat with the third son.

The weather in May is not cold anymore, and it is even a bit hot in the afternoon.

The young man was happy to sit outside and blow his hair.

From the young man’s mouth, Gu Jiao learned that the place they were going to was called Ciyouzhuang, which was equivalent to the orphanage in Gu Jiao’s previous life. He is good at people and opened some kindergarten villages.

Since there is an orphanage, Gu Jiao asked if there is a nursing home.

The young man said: ”The girl is talking about the sanatorium, right? There is no sanatorium on our street, only in Xiliu Street. There are more soldiers and craftsmen who are old, weak, disabled, and heirless. Not many people go there.”

”Why?” Gu Jiao asked.

The young man smiled bitterly: ”I can't take it.”

Gu Jiao said nothing.

The time and space of welfare institutions are the same. It is not possible to go if you want to, but the starting point is good, and it does solve some people's livelihood needs.

The terrain of Ciyouzhuang is remote, and it took more than half an hour for the carriage to walk around before finally reaching the gate of Ciyouzhuang.

The words on the plaque were all painted off, the door was cracked, and mildew and moss spread all over the wall.

Dilapidated.

is Gu Jiao's first impression.

The entrance is a large courtyard, which is similar to the layout of their house. A small vegetable garden was opened on the left and a small fish pond was dug on the right. The courtyard was connected to several houses, which seemed to be for adults.

Walking through the hall, the second courtyard is for the children.

There are many children’s clothes drying in the yard. The materials are not bad, they are new and clean, and there are no patches.

Now it’s close to dinner time, and the children in Ciyouzhuang are all sitting in the east dining hall for dinner.

Gu Jiao smelled it, there was a smell of vegetables and meat, and the food was pretty good.

It seems that Ciyouzhuang is spending all the money where it should be spent.

”Where is the patient?” Gu Jiao asked.

The young man said: ”Behind, please follow me.”

The patient lives in a room in the third hospital. The orientation of the room is not good. It is cold in winter and hot in summer, and it leaks on rainy days.

As soon as Gu Jiao crossed the threshold, she felt a sultry breath. One can imagine how uncomfortable it is to live in this house.

The young man stood at the door, scratched his head, and said: ”This little brother and I won't go in anymore. The troubled girl will be healed for the good girl Gu.”

The third son suspected that the other party had said the opposite. Shouldn’t it be ”Thanks to the girl to treat the girl well”?

When Gu Jiao entered the room, she understood why the young man had said this. The patient lying on the cold bed in it turned out to be Gu Jinyu.

Gu Jiao hasn’t seen Gu Jinyu for some days, and she never expected to see her here.

Gu Jinyu wore a burlap linen of ordinary people, and the pearl hairpin jewelry on his head was gone, replaced by two simple hair bands.

Her cheeks are thinner, but her complexion is not as bright as she was when she was pampered in the Hou Mansion, and she can see that there is no less sun.

She seems to have grown a little taller.

A trace of surprise flashed across Gu Jinyu's eyes, and she didn't expect that it would be Gu Jiao who would arrive.

She looked at Gu Jiao with a complex expression, opened her mouth, and finally whispered: ”It's you.”

This time, I finally didn’t call my sister again.

Gu Jiao didn’t come for that elder sister. She collected money from others and came to treat people’s illnesses. That’s all.

She stepped forward and sat down on the stool beside the bed: ”What's not good?”

Gu Jinyu lowered her eyes, and said lowly: ”I have had a menstrual period and I have abdominal pain. I just fainted with the pain.”

”Put out your hand.” Gu Jiao said.

Gu Jinyu slowly stretched out his right hand.

Gu Jiao didn't have much contact with Gu Jinyu, but she had seen these hands. The fingers were not touched by the spring water. They were as delicate as porcelain and as beautiful as jade, but now they are much rougher.

Although it is not like Gu Jiao's hand with large and small wounds, it has lost its original luster.

is the hand that has done the work.

Gu Jiao took the pulse for her, and withdrew her hand and said: ”The abdomen is cold and blood stasis is symptomatic. Just take some medicine that relaxes the muscles and activates blood. I also prescribe a few painkillers, which is too painful to bear. Just eat one and don’t have to carry it until you faint.”

After Gu Jiao said, she turned around and put the small back basket on the table, took the medicine from the small medicine box, put them into porcelain bottles separately, and wrote the usage and dosage on the cloth-striped bottle with charcoal.

Gu Jiao didn't ask how she appeared in Ciyouzhuang, she came by herself, or the Hou Mansion sent her out. After Gu Jiao gave her the medicine, she planned to leave.

”Sister.” Gu Jinyu stopped her suddenly, her expression and tone of voice showed hesitation and anxiety, ”How are mother and brother?”

”It's okay.” Gu Jiaoyan said concisely.

”I'm sorry.” She whispered, her throat choked a little.

Gu Jiao said calmly: “The patient doesn’t have to say sorry to the doctor.”

Gu Jinyu fixedly looked at Gu Jiao and said: ”I know you don't like to listen, but I really don't play at the scene. I spent some time in Ciyouzhuang before fully realizing how hard the life of the poor is. My sister's life back then. It should be more bitter than them, right? I heard that the family often doesn't feed her sister, and will beat her sister and force her to do things. If it wasn't for the wrong hold, it would be me who had to bear all this.

I robbed my sister’s life, but in the end, I was jealous of my sister because I couldn’t get the attention of my mother and brother, and despised my sister because my sister was a peasant woman from the country...

There are a few children in Ciyouzhuang who are clever and clever, but they are abandoned in such a place, they can't read books, can't learn things, and the good seedlings are ruined like this.

If it was me who stayed in the country, I would probably be like them. I always look down on my sister depending on how talented I am to learn, and I never thought that these talented opportunities were given to me by my sister's identity. If my sister, like me, grew up in the Hou Mansion since childhood, how can she be worse than me now?

I always don’t want to admit that my sister is better than me. It is the vanity in my heart that is at work. I don't ask my sister to forgive me, I just want to tell my sister that I won't do it anymore. My sister thinks that I have reformed, or that I accept my fate... Anyway, I can't stay in the Hou Mansion for long. ”

When she said this, her face was full of bitterness, ”I really envy my elder sister. If I am married, my mother and my younger brother can also be by my side. I don't know what kind of family I will marry. Grandma is choosing a marriage for me... But after all, it's not as comfortable as my sister.”

”Done?” Gu Jiao said.

Gu Jiao’s indifference was expected by Gu Jinyu. She laughed self-deprecatingly, and said: “I heard that my brother-in-law was the champion in high school, I’m here to say congratulations to my sister and brother-in-law.”

”Thanks.”
