Chapter 30 Road to Well-off (6)

The few people in the room had to work hard to finally see the child’s face gradually turning better and more lively, unlike the terrifyingly pale face when he first entered the room.

“It’s about time. All of you go out first, don’t crowd around inside. Huang Lian! ”

Du Huichun suddenly raised his voice again. Right after he finished speaking, he replied with a tone of his own: “Coming, sir. Look at this ginger soup, it’s half cold from blowing, it’s definitely not scalding. ”

Du Huichun looked at it and curled his lips. He did not say anything, nor did he say anything bad. Huang Lian immediately understood that she could use it. Proficiently, she used her chopsticks to pry open the man’s mouth and fed each spoon into the bowl.

Li Yannian understood what else she had not understood.

Li Yannian thought, it must be that he heard everything she said when she was arguing with Huang Lian, whether it was because she was protecting her son, or because her words “he died in your infirmary” made him angry, so she was worried that she had offended him, so she used some tricks on him to make herself look bad.

did not dare to guarantee it now, but he was sure that this doctor was very narrow-minded. Could it be that he was a person who would take revenge and hold grudges against others?

“Doctor, how many months have you been a stranger?” Li Yannian’s mouth was faster than her brain, so she accidentally asked.

Du Huichun looked at her lazily, but ignored his, and only said impatiently: “I told you guys to go out, why are you still standing here?”

Black Bean tugged at the corner of Li Yannian’s clothes, just now he wanted to listen to the doctor and wait outside, but seeing that the girl was not willing to move, he was not at ease, and stayed behind as well.

Li Yannian revealed an extremely sincere smile on her face: “Isn’t this just to let you take a rest and treat your illness? This person is someone we picked up. We don’t have any relatives or relatives, if we really go out, who would you ask for the money from? Don’t regret dying? ”

Huang Lian choked in anger, but it was not good for him to help others feed them. She could only carry out the secret technique of killing with her eyes, and bore holes in Li Yannian’s body time and time again, almost wanting to kill him with her glare.

Du Huichun was momentarily at a loss for words. His expression did not look good, and he unhappily waved his sleeves: “Huichun Hall is never afraid of people reneging on their promise, as long as they come they won’t be able to escape. I told you guys to leave immediately, why are you all squeezed inside! Huang Lian, is the medicine ready? When you’re done, hurry over here and write a prescription to take them to the pharmacy to get the medicine, don’t forget about the medical fee! ”

“Ah, don’t worry. I’ll never forget it!”

Huang Lian immediately responded and flippantly took out some straw paper, and did not forget to shoot a few eye knives at Li Yannian.

He didn’t know if it was just an illusion on Black Bean’s part, but he always felt that the doctor had paid extra attention to the word “medical fee”, and he was gnashing his teeth in anger.

Li Yannian succeeded in adding to their displeasure, but did not say anything, pushed open the door and followed Black Bean and the others to the front hall to wait.

After a quarter of an hour, Huang Lian indeed pinched a prescription. Li Yannian took a quick glance, the first one being the ginseng and 3 taels, then all of them were for nourishing Qi and warming up her body, some of them were like astragalus and medlar, she could not help but laugh, this doctor was truly vindictive, and treated her as a big brother.

Huang Lian shook the prescription proudly at her. She had an expression of achievement: “Look, my master just prescribed a medicine, whether or not this person can live, it all depends on these few doses. “Since you saved everyone and sent Buddha to the end, you should pay for the medicine as well!”

Black Bean did not recognize much and did not take a careful look at the prescription. He thought that it was only a matter of three to five silver coins at most, and laughed: “Can I ask little brother, how much does it total?”

Huang Lian extended five of her fingers and waved them in front of him.

Black Bean was speechless. Seeing a patient was really not cheap, he just rubbed it a few times to feed it ginger soup. To open a few sets of herbs, it would cost five hundred gold coins! Although his heart ached for money, he remembered that saving others was good luck. He nodded towards Huang Lian: “Just now, my sister gave you a tael of silver.

Before he even finished speaking, he was snatched away by Huang Lian, who spoke with ridicule: “What are you still looking for, look carefully, it’s 5 taels of silver, not 500 taels of gold. This is truly something the countryside people do not know, do you see the ginseng that has such a big fight written on it? This is because our teacher pitied you. He even changed the ginseng foam and purposely changed the price. Otherwise, where else would you go to buy such a cheap ginseng? ”

It was obviously the dark heart of the doctor! Black Bean held his neck up wanting to argue with him, but he heard Li Yannian speak in a neutral tone, “Speaking of which, we have to thank your mister for his kind heart. However, thanks anyway, I don’t know how much money it would cost to pay for a clinic and what grade of ginseng would cost, but it would cost several years. Should there be more dregs, or should there be less dregs? How much did it cost? And the astragalus in the prescription, was it a thick slice, or a thin slice? Smoked or sunburned? And at what price? “And this wolfberry …”

The more Li Yannian spoke, the paler Huang Lian’s face became. How could he remember the prices of these things? There was someone in charge of the shop for the purpose of seizing the medicines and calculating the money. He only needed to wait upon the mister and do some chores by the side. He had made up the price of five taels of silver randomly, just like how she made these bumpkins make a fool of themselves in front of everyone. But he did not expect that this little girl would be so hard to deal with. Her tone was light and indifferent, and with just a few words, she had forced him into a dead end.

Li Yannian’s voice was not loud, but it was enough for the other patients in the medicine hall to hear what was happening, they could not help but look at Huang Lian, revealing their suspicions, they probably did not expect the famous Huichun Hall, to actually do such a wicked thing, and started whispering to each other.

The owner of the infirmary saw that the situation was not good, so he quickly said, “Everyone, please do not blame this shop assistant who is not often in the infirmary and is naturally not familiar with the price. If there is anything that you do not understand, please follow me to my ear room so that you do not disturb other people from seeking medical treatment.”

Li Yannian laughed faintly: “That is unnecessary, since even you lot are unable to clearly determine the price of the medicinal ingredients, but are able to say out a whole number of them, us laymen, if we were to ask in a different place, we would just be butchered in a different place. I’ll leave the money in your infirmary, you can chase him away after you’ve used up the money for the medicine. We saved his life once, and that was fate. As for whether or not he’ll live through this, that’s his own fortune, and the abilities of the doctors. “Here, take two taels. Also, I already gave one tael to that little brother. These aunts and uncles can all testify for me.”

The shopkeeper was complaining incessantly, and before he could stop him, Li Yannian had already opened his round eyes with an innocent and patient look, and asked the patients at the side for confirmation: “Uncle, aunties, what do you say?”

The aunts nodded in succession, and whispered to each other, “What a pitiful person. Kind enough to save a person. For no reason, you were treated like a fat sheep that was slaughtered for five taels of silver.”

“That’s right. Look at these children, they’re not young at all, and their clothes aren’t the children of some wealthy family.” “Heh, I can really do it. Five taels of silver!”

“Why don’t we go to the Nan Zhuang to take a look. This Huichun Hall, don’t even mention becoming a doctor in charge, her methods are so evil!”

“Did you or didn’t you not? Just now, Doctor Du came out to bring that child in …”

“It’s the Doctor Du, that shouldn’t be …”

The more Huang Lian heard, the more she felt his face heating up. She had really picked up a rock and smashed her own feet this time, it’s fine if it ruined her reputation, but it can’t even implicate Mister. Seeing Li Yannian’s hateful face, she immediately became angry, and rushed towards Li Yannian, grabbing her collar and giving her a slap.

With a loud smack, it was extremely loud.

Everything happened too quickly. No one expected something like this to happen. Everyone was so stunned that they forgot to say anything.

Li Yannian only felt that his face was hot and numb, to the point that she was actually stunned by the punch. Ever since she was young, she had never been hit like this before. Before she could even feel wronged, tears had already flowed down her face.

Mao Dou cried in fear. He was so scared that his face turned white, but he still swung his little fist and charged towards Huang Lian without a care, “I’ll beat you to death. You hit my sister, I’ll beat you to death!”

Being bullied like that right in front of him, Black Bean’s ears rang with a buzz, and in a moment, he could no longer hear anything. He only felt a surge of anger rising up, and his eyes turned blood-red, his mind a blank, but his fist seemed to have developed its own will, and only punched towards the blurry figure.

Puff, puff, puff …

This was the first time Black Bean realized that this was the sound of a fist hitting flesh.

Dong, dong, dong …

When he reached a place with less meat, his voice became a bit muffled, and he also didn’t feel good about it.

“Don’t get hit, help, help …”

“Brother!” “Big brother, stop …”

“What are you all still standing there in a daze for? Hurry up and pull him away!”

“Brother, I’m afraid …” “Brother, stop hitting me …”

Huang Lian could no longer hear Huang Lian’s pleas for mercy, her brother and sister’s anxious cries for help, and the owner’s persuasive words.

At this moment, he was like a trapped beast out of its cage, staring with its blood-red eyes, wanting to smash the thing in front of its eyes into pieces.

Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain on his neck. Black Bean still wanted to turn his head to see who was hitting him. However, there was another pain in his neck, and his hands and feet had been drained of strength. He could no longer hold on and slowly fell to the ground.

It was Du Huichun.

He truly did not think of it. He only wanted to make things difficult for this sharp-tongued little girl to cause such a ruckus. Looking at the two faces that looked exactly the same, he suddenly felt a little guilty and explained, “He just fainted. If he doesn’t stop it, something will happen to him too.”

Li Yannian extended her hand to check Black Bean’s breath, seeing that he was still breathing and there were no obvious wounds on his neck, she finally relaxed. She turned around and touched Mao Dou’s head. She used her sleeve to wipe away Mao Dou’s tears. Then, she looked around, as if she was looking for someone.

Du Huichun’s attitude became a lot softer this time, probably because of guilt, so he quickly asked: “Little miss, who are you looking for?”

Li Yannian originally did not want to bother with him, but if she wanted to be despicable, then she would have to charge at her.

Turning his head to look at him coldly, Li Yannian’s mouth revealed a ridiculing smile: “There’s no need for you to put on a show, as long as you follow him, whatever virtue or character he has, you are nothing more than virtue. No matter how much praise outsiders have, whether it is a ghost or a Buddha, you know it yourself.”

After saying that, she finally recognized the shopkeeper from the crowd. She quickly waved at him and asked, “How much does he need for the medicine?”

The shopkeeper sneaked a peek at Du Huichun’s face, seeing him nod at him, he quietly replied: “The medicine is not expensive, with this little bit of skin injury, the medicine plus the stick and ointment, one silver is enough.”

Li Yannian did not make a sound, and took out half a tael of silver from her bag: “My brother hit him, and he hit me too. Bullying a girl, your infirmary is really capable! As for the money in the medicine, don’t say that I’m relying on you for it, I’m willing to give you half of it because we’re loyal to you. I’ll tell this shop assistant later, as a man, you should take your time. Your Huichun Hall, tsktsk, tsktsk, it’s better to see than to see anything! ”

The surrounding people were also discussing unevenly, pointing at them, it looked like in less than an afternoon, the entire Du Jia Village would know that their servants were bullying others.

The poor storekeeper was already over a hundred years old, but this was the first time he was roasted by a young girl the age of his granddaughter. He had never felt so ashamed in his life before.

Did he really like saving others and not asking for anything in return? Not really. Being in the Du Family, he did not have to worry about food and clothing. The purpose of supporting his family and seeking for wealth was not his goal. He only enjoyed the feeling of being admired, of having the hands to control the life and death of others, of being happy when he was happy, of being worried when he was sad when he was sad. This was completely different from how a single sentence from the Du Clan could decide whether a person was going to rise or fall, whether they were happy or worried.

The latter was only the master while the former was the god!

And for the rest of the Du Jia Village, just receiving a little benefit was enough to make him look like a living god. After so long, even Du Huichun himself believed these lies, and truly treated himself as a genius doctor.

But the little girl in front of him today, with a single sentence, had sent him back to his original form. The temperature in Du Huichun’s eyes dropped bit by bit.
