Chapter 359: Lost and Lost
"Brother Qi? What are you thinking? β
Seeing that Tang Siqi had been stunned, Xiao Wanyao couldn't help but push him.
Tang Siqi came back to his senses at this time, glanced at Xiao Wanyao in a bit of a panic, and then shook his head: "I didn't think about anything." β
Xiao Wanyao looked at Tang Siqi's slightly cramped expression, and did not have too many suspicions, but smiled brightly, and then took out the medicinal materials from the medicine basket: "Then please ask Brother Qi to cut these and dry them!" I'm going to take care of the business ahead! β
Tang Siqi waved his hand indifferently and said, "Go ahead!" β
Xiao Wanyao happily got up and ran towards the house, Tang Siqi looked at her back and was full of joy, but Xiao Wanyao suddenly stopped in place and turned her head: "Brother Qi is quite imposing when he waves, if he was born in the family of the emperor and general, he may be a prince and general or something." β
"You know how to talk nonsense." Tang Siqi felt a little embarrassed after hearing this, and his heart was full of feelings, but all he could do was to scorn her as if he was joking.
As for Xiao Wanyao, she just laughed it off.
Their clinic is located in the southwest corner of Tengchong Town, and business has been flat for a few days after it opened, firstly because they are outsiders, and the locals prefer to see a doctor in a medical clinic that has been around for many years, and secondly, Xiao Wanyao is still too young as a doctor to sit in the clinic, and the woman who looks good looks feels more like a vase.
It is indeed a new thing that there is a handsome female doctor in the town, so there are many more people who come here every day to see the excitement than to come to see the doctor.
It's not that there are no people who come to see the doctor, but the main purpose is to buy medicine, and the quality of the medicinal materials in this newly opened medical clinic is better, and the price is fair and there is no adulteration, so the people who come here are only to buy medicine.
"Girl, bring me five dollars of licorice." On a boring afternoon, an old man came to buy medicine.
Tsing Yi was originally drowsy, but when he heard the business coming to his door, he came to his senses, walked to the medicine cabinet to grab the medicine, and asked casually: "Old man, what do you want to do as long as you want licorice?" β
"Of course, it's a cure, my grandson has been coughing all this time, buy some licorice and go home to boil water for him to cure the cough." The old man said.
Xiao Wanyao, who was sitting on the side, said: "Although licorice is flat, children can't take too much at a time, why don't you bring your grandson to our medical center, let me take a good look at him, and then it's not too late to prescribe the right medicine?" β
The old man shook his head: "No need, I just saw it from Dr. Chen in the north, but the medicinal materials in the prescription are too expensive, I think one of them is licorice, I think I bought it for the child to drink, it can also cure cough." β
Xiao Wanyao smiled after hearing this: "It's hard for me to explain to you clearly about the medicinal properties, although I don't know what expensive prescription that Dr. Chen prescribed to your child, but just drinking some licorice water can't cure the disease......
The old man was a little unconvinced: "Then you say, is licorice a cure for cough?" β
"Yes, but ......"
"You don't have to say it, just give me licorice, you young people, in order to make more money, you know to deceive us ordinary people to come to the consultation, the consultation fee, I am so old, don't think I can't understand anything, I see it really!" The old man interrupted Xiao Wanyao's words, and after saying impatiently, he put down a few pennies, and then left with licorice.
"Good business didn't work out." Tsing Yi lazily sat back in his original position, "Sister Yu, it's better for us to open the medical hall into a pharmacy and directly do the medicinal herb business." β
Xiao Wanyao didn't care about Tsing Yi's ridicule, but said with some concern: "The price of medicine in southern Xinjiang seems to be a little expensive, most of our medicinal materials need to be bought in the hands of medicinal material merchants, and the medicinal materials I pick in the mountains and forests are usually enough to make up for it, if you directly do the medicinal materials business and don't charge the consultation fee, sooner or later we will lose, after all, we don't have so many medicines in our hands." β
"What my sister said makes sense, but you see, even people with cold and cough don't trust us to watch, and if this continues, we will have no business to do." Tsing Yi made no secret of his frustration when he said this.
"When you talk about this, I'm more worried about the old man's child, I couldn't refute what he said at the time, and he didn't let me finish talking and left, licorice can only treat one type of cough, the so-called 'all internal organs make people cough', that is, people with phlegm and cough may have problems with the spleen, and people with phlegm but cough may have lung problems. But this is not comprehensive, because only by time to classify, cough in the early morning is mostly phlegm fire, cough before noon, and stomach fire, cough in the afternoon is yin deficiency ......"
Speaking of what she was doing, Xiao Wanyao opened the conversation as soon as she spoke, and she couldn't stop.
Fortunately, Tsing Yi was patient and listened carefully to her cough.
"Sister, you said so much, in the final analysis, you have to prescribe the right medicine, right? Actually, I'm almost stunned by you, and it's really embarrassing for you to tell me this. Tsing Yi said as he leaned on the table.
"It's good that you know more about this common sense, after all, our family runs a medical center. I'm wondering, why haven't you learned those crafts from Dad? Could it be that my father was partial in the past and only taught me, not you? Xiao Wanyao asked.
"Hehe...... " Tsing Yi smiled stupidly, in her and Tang Siqi's fabrication, their sisters' father was a doctor, who used to practice medicine in the town where they lived, and her sister Yu'er was exposed to it, and her father was willing to cultivate, so she learned a lot of medical skills.
"Daddy thinks you're smart and studious, so he's willing to teach you more, as for me...... Sister, don't you know? Tsing Yi thought about it, such a perfunctory, as long as Xiao Wanyao didn't take it to heart, she would definitely not be exposed.
Sure enough, Xiao Wanyao just replied absentmindedly: "No matter what you learn, you have to sit still, otherwise you won't be able to learn well." β
"Yes, yes, sister, you are the best." It's time for Tsing Yi to boast.
Xiao Wanyao smiled, this matter is over, and the boring day of sitting in the clinic is over, fortunately, the mentality of the three of them is relatively peaceful, since they are not starving to death at present, they are not worried about the current business downturn.
Early the next morning, Xiao Wanyao went to the mountains and forests to collect medicine as usual, and couldn't help but feel that southern Xinjiang was a good place, there were many rare medicinal materials that she had only seen in medical classics, and they had become ordinary medicinal materials all over the mountains and fields in southern Xinjiang, but there were also bad ones, that is, some drugs that seemed ordinary in the past were rarely seen in southern Xinjiang, and it was indeed a bit expensive to buy them from pharmacists, but fortunately, Xiao Wanyao knew which medicinal materials could be substituted for each other, and if the price was too expensive, she would also choose some substitutes.
Along the way, she felt that she was thinking a little too much, although there were a lot of medicinal materials in the medicine basket, but no one came to the door to consult, and these medicinal materials were at best a supplement for the family.
It's just that when she walked to the infirmary, she didn't know what to send.
The old man who came to buy licorice yesterday sat in the hospital with his grandson in his arms crying, while the three or four-year-old boy in his arms was blue and his eyes were closed.
"What's going on?" Xiao Wanyao hadn't put down the medicine basket yet, and stood in front of the door and looked at the old man with some surprise.
As soon as the old man saw that Xiao Wanyao was back, he knelt on the ground with a puff in his arms and asked Xiao Wanyao to save his grandson.
Xiao Wanyao frowned, and she couldn't figure out the situation for a while, so she asked, "Is there a problem with yesterday's licorice?" β
The old man shook his head and said, "No, this morning the child got up and played in the house for a while and suddenly fainted, I sent him to Dr. Chen, and brought the licorice I bought yesterday, Dr. Chen looked at the licorice and said that there was no problem, and I checked the side for the child and found nothing wrong, but the child's condition is getting worse and worse, and Dr. Chen is afraid that something will happen and will not show it......"
"So you're coming to me? If something happens, we can't afford to take responsibility! "Tsing Yi is a little dissatisfied, you didn't come yesterday when you came, and now the child is about to die, you came, this is a medical hall and not a good hall.
Xiao Wanyao listened to the old man's narration in silence, squatted down to look at the child's face, and then checked his pulse, strangely there was nothing abnormal.
"Old man, you put the child on the wicker chair, I'll check it out." Xiao Wanyao didn't care about yesterday's events, the most important thing at the moment is to heal this child, as a doctor, this is the most important thing.
The old man obediently put his grandson on the rattan chair, and then Xiao Wanyao carefully checked the child's body, except for the small wound on the knee, there was no other abnormality.
What's going on?
Xiao Wanyao had no idea for a while.
Seeing Xiao Wanyao's confused face, the old man was so sad that he was about to cry, but Xiao Wanyao didn't plan to give up after putting down the medicine basket, but when her fingertips skimmed over her cheeks, she smelled something strange.
There is a slight pungent taste in the bitterness, as if it has smelled somewhere.
Xiao Wanyao hurriedly put down the medicine basket, she was sure that there was no such smell in the medicinal materials she picked, she had always been sensitive to the smell of medicinal materials, and her fingers had not touched anyone except the child just now, it must be the smell of the child.
Soon Xiao Wanyao found that the wound on the child's knee was coated with some juice, and this bitter and pungent taste originated from this place.
"What is this?" Xiao Wanyao pointed to the red potion on her knee, "Stop bruises?" It doesn't smell like saffron. β
The old man said: "Saffron is too expensive, we can't afford it here, this is a local coriander, it can also treat wounds, but this coriander is used by everyone, is it because it harms children to faint?" β
Xiao Wanyao got up with relief and said to Tsing Yi beside her, "Help me get the silver needle." Then he said to the old man: "It's coriander, it's right, it is against the medicinal properties of licorice, if it is an ordinary adult, it will feel uncomfortable to use coriander and licorice at the same time, and he is a child, and his body is relatively weak, so some can't bear it." β
The old man didn't understand this, just looking at Xiao Wanyao's calm face, he knew that the doctor had an idea, so he said, "Then is my grandson saved?" β
As he was talking, Tsing Yi came over with a pack of silver needles, which Xiao Wanyao usually carried, and she didn't forget to bring it with her when she ran away this time, just opening a medical hall can come in handy.
"Just a few stitches, when it's urgent, it's not a big deal." Xiao Wanyao said as she burned it with a candle, and then pricked the child with a needle.
Half an hour later, the child's face was much more ruddy, and he finally woke up, and the old man cried with joy, holding his grandson and refusing to let go.
"The female doctor is really the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva, and her wonderful hands are rejuvenated!" The old man knelt on the ground and said.
Xiao Wanyao was a little embarrassed, so she hurriedly helped the old man up and said: "The doctor is benevolent, you can treat the old man normally, and I just saw that the child's cough is because of lung fever, children often have lung fever, just use some honey loquat leaves, you don't have to eat expensive medicinal materials, besides, the medicine is three poisonous, valuable medicinal materials, the child's body can't afford it." β
The old man was very moved when he heard this, and he had to give Xiao Wanyao a tael of silver as a reward, but Xiao Wanyao refused.
"I only receive consultation fees and medicine money, a total of 30 yuan, so I don't need so much." Xiao Wanyao said.
The old man didn't push again, what kind of person this female doctor is, the old man has seen it clearly, so he obediently paid thirty yuan, took the medicine and left with his grandson.
Chapter 360: Clues
Tang Siqi was quite appreciative of this, and Xiao Wanyao felt that she was just doing what she had to do, just a trivial matter, and she thought that it would be over, but she didn't expect that after this incident, the business of the hospital would also become much better.
After all, this is a small town, and the villagers know each other, Xiao Wanyao cured the strange illness of the old man and grandson of the Li family, and this matter soon spread throughout the town, so the number of people who came and went to see a doctor gradually increased.
On the other side, in the palace of the Wei State.
Feimo has been investigating the disappearance of Xiao Wanyao for seven days, but fortunately, the emperor has lived up to his wishes, and the original clueless case finally has some clues.
"Holy Lord, as you expected, the soldiers who kept vigil that day were indeed fascinated by the incense, but at that time they thought they were lazy because they were tired, so they didn't dare to report it." Fei Mo said.
"Oh?" Xue Tianao put down the red pen in his hand and asked, "Then find out who did it?" β
Fei Mo shook his head: "Who did it, the subordinates don't have a clue for the time being, but what is certain is that the other party is someone that Miss Yanran knows, because there are no traces of drugs found in the residence of the hotel, and Miss Yanran's bags are gone, and there are no traces of a fight in the house, so it should be that Miss Yanran is willing to leave." β
"Someone you know?" Xue Tianao thought carefully for a while, the Kyushu Gang is unlikely, because he is closely monitoring the Jiangbei area, who is there in the Kyushu Gang, as the former big boss, he knows very well, those people have not come to Jiangbei, so it is impossible to be the Kyushu Gang.
"The subordinate suspects that it is a woman." Fei Mo said, "The soldiers who guarded the city that night counted five carriages that left the city at night, two of which left in the middle of the night, in order to ensure accuracy, the subordinates all went to learn more about it, only these two cars were the most suspicious." β
"Then why do you conclude that it is a woman?" Xue Tianao squinted his eyes and asked.
"Because the subordinates went to the Baiji Carriage Shop and asked, the two carriages that went out of the city were from the Baiji Carriage Company, and the reason why it was determined was because the harvest soldiers described the appearance of the carriage according to their recollections, and the subordinates went to several carriage shops according to their descriptions, and in the end they only matched the carriages sold by the Baiji Carriage Company." Fei Mo paused and continued, "According to the owner's recollection, the person who bought the car was a woman, but I didn't take the specific appearance to heart. β
"Any other news?" Xue Tianao was first overjoyed when he heard this, and then he was a little disappointed, leaving the city meant that the clue was broken!
"Not yet." Fei Mo lowered his head and said frankly.
Xue Tianao was very helpless when he heard this, but there was no more effective way, so he could only say: "You go down first, if there is news, come and tell SΓΉ I, and tell SΓΉ I if I need any cooperation in the investigation process." β
After Feimo left, Xue Tianao sat alone on the top of the hall, and he was in no mood to review it for the time being, there has been no news of Xiao Wanyao for so long, Xue Tianao's heart is not only sad is sad, but also has many regrets, if he did not put Xiao Wanyao under house arrest at that time, but believed in her unconditionally, what would be the situation now?
"Wan Yao, if you can hear it, come back to me!"
Over there in southern Xinjiang.
Xiao Wanyao was asleep at night, but she was always having the same dream repeatedly, in the dream, a purple-clothed arrogant teenager stood in the snow and watched her cry, her appearance was delicate and immature, his crying seemed to have endless grievances, he said "Why do you want to go".
Then the picture changed to when she was a child, she was standing by the stream drinking water, and the reflection in the river was a woman who was quite similar to her appearance, the woman was also crying, and her crying was with resentment, she said, "Why do you want to go back to this home", and those unfamiliar pictures kept changing in front of her, making Xiao Wanyao in her sleep a little scared.
When she woke up, she was faced with pitch darkness again, Xiao Wanyao held the quilt for a long time before she woke up, and she was at a loss for a while in the face of the pitch-black room.
Who are these people, and why do you feel so uncomfortable when you dream about them?
The difficult night finally passed, and Xiao Wanyao couldn't wait to get up at dawn, although she had a headache, she really didn't want to stay in the house.
"Yu'er?"
Xiao Wanyao was about to go out to collect medicine, but she heard Tang Siqi stop her behind her.
"Huh?" Xiao Wanyao saw that it was Tang Siqi, and then stopped.
"You don't look very good, don't go to collect medicine today!" Tang Siqi has always been the earliest, and today I saw Xiao Wanyao earlier than in the past, but I felt a little novel.
"Don't get in the way, I'll go out to collect medicine, and by the way, I'll also relax." Xiao Wanyao replied.
Tang Siqi stood in place and thought for a moment, then nodded: "Then I'll go with you, it's just boring, and I'll be distracted." β
Although Xiao Wanyao was a little reluctant, she couldn't find a reason to refuse, so she nodded out of politeness, thinking that there was actually nothing inconvenient about going with him.
There was a morning mist outside the house, Xiao Wanyao and Tang Siqi went out of the town one after the other, and they didn't speak during the period, until they entered the mountains and forests, Tang Siqi spoke: "Yu'er, you said you want to scatter your mind, don't you have something on your mind?" Can I talk to you Brother Qi? β
Xiao Wanyao was collecting medicine, and when she heard Tang Siqi ask, she couldn't help but hesitate, but after thinking about it, he was their brother who had been playing since childhood, and he had taken good care of them along the way, and he just had some strange dreams, why couldn't he say it?
"It's just that I've had nightmares a lot recently, and the dreams are all people I don't know, and I wake up depressed, so I came to relax." Xiao Wanyao said this, looking sullen.
Tang Siqi's nervous mood relaxed, at least Xiao Wanyao had not doubted anything until now, and he also trusted his brother, he must make good use of this opportunity to get closer to her.
"Yu'er, you are a healer, why do you say you have many dreams?" Tang Siqi will not be stupid to help her recall her dreams, if she really discovers something, then the peaceful life she has worked so hard to manage will be broken.
"If you are too stressed and depressed, you will have a lot of dreams." Xiao Wanyao replied truthfully.
Tang Siqi smiled gently, walked over and took Xiao Wanyao's hand and patted it gently, and said, "Isn't that enough?" The business of the clinic has only started to improve in the past few days, and you have worked too much for the clinic before, and it is inevitable that the pressure will become greater subconsciously, and it is inevitable that you will not sleep well. β
"But ......" Xiao Wanyao felt that it was not wrong after hearing it, but why did she feel something worse, so she asked: "But the people I dreamed of feel very familiar, but I don't know who they are, which makes people feel very uncomfortable." β
Tang Siqi patted her on the shoulder and said, "Have you forgotten?" The serious illness on the way to southern Xinjiang, after that illness you recovered from that illness, you can't remember so many things, you may have forgotten the acquaintances and friends in the town before, but their appearance is in your mind, so it is not strange for you to dream of them. β
Xiao Wanyao felt slightly relieved when she heard this, but she was still strange: "Our town is not rich, why are the people in my dreams wearing brocade clothes?" β
Tang Siqi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I know, I know, Yu'er, you must not have forgotten the new clothes that Brother Qi once promised you, didn't you just happen to encounter the war, so it dragged on until now?" After all, you girl can't forget anything. β
Xiao Wanyao was inexplicable when she heard it, but she also guessed that it was before the amnesia, so she smiled: "If there is such a thing, it will also be in the past, after all, it was a matter of the past, and now it is not what it used to be, and we still have to live with the money we have saved." β
Tang Siqi said: "In the future, Brother Qi will definitely let you live the best and best life, please Yu'er, you must believe it!" β
"Believe, believe!" Xiao Wanyao smiled, and at the same time withdrew her hand from his hand, continued to squat on the side of the road to find medicine, and asked: "Brother Qi, we have been here for so long, we have never spoken well alone, now this opportunity, I want to ask you a question, if you feel inconvenient to sue me, you can refuse, I won't mind." β
Hearing Xiao Wanyao's formal tone, Tang Siqi also became serious: "You said, as long as I know, I will definitely sue you." β
Xiao Wanyao pondered for a moment and said, "How did you get the injury on your face?" I don't think it's a new injury this year, but it's like before, at least...... It was a year ago. β
Tang Siqi's expression was a little gloomy, this was his painful memory, Xiao Wanyao's words inadvertently touched his deepest wound.
Xiao Wanyao saw that he didn't speak, so she stopped what she was doing and turned her head to look at him, only to see that his eyes were full of sadness, and she couldn't help but regret a little - maybe men and women are very concerned about their appearance, she asked him like this, did she make him think that he cared about the scars on his face?!
"Brother Qi, I'm sorry......" Xiao Wanyao said guiltily.
Tang Siqi came back to his senses and said with a wry smile: "What is there to be sorry for?" In the past, there was a good-looking young man in our town who liked you, but he didn't like me being too close to you, you know, man, it's very possible to fight without a word, and he was young and vigorous at that time, and he ended up with a scar on his face. β
"Do you regret it?" Xiao Wanyao asked faintly.
Tang Siqi said: "If you can get back to not associating with other men, it doesn't matter if my whole face is disfigured, you are with others, I ...... in my heart Under the weather. β
Tang Siqi's meaning couldn't be more obvious, and he almost confessed directly, but Xiao Wanyao liked him like just a brother, so he could only pretend not to know: "Speaking of repairing scars, Brother Qi, your luck is really not ordinary, I just have a recipe here, and any scar can be repaired." Although your scar is a few years old, it may not be able to be repaired, but it will definitely be much better than now. β
"Yu'er, do you care about the scar on my face?" Tang Siqi said a little sadly.
Xiao Wanyao said with a smile: "That's not the case, Brother Qi, don't get me wrong, everyone has a love for beauty, Yu'er is just thinking, maybe Brother Qi also hopes that there will be no scars on his face." β
Tang Siqi smiled with relief, and then nodded.
"Rose six coins, astragalus, prince ginseng, codonopsis four coins, peach kernels, leeches, rehmannia rehmannia, soapthorn two coins, honeysuckle one pen......ny" Xiao Wanyao went to write a prescription after returning to the hospital, these herbs are the best prescription for repairing scars, but when she finished writing, she was in a trance, as if she had written such a prescription many years ago, she subconsciously looked at her right hand, and then felt that her inexplicable behavior was ridiculous.
There are all these medicines in the medical hall, Xiao Wanyao quickly prepared the prescription, and asked Tsing Yi to take it out to boil the medicine, and then gave Tang Siqi some money, asking him to go to the butcher shop to buy some butter and come back.
"It's disgusting!" Tang Siqi couldn't help but say.
Xiao Wanyao pursed her lips with a look of disdain. R1154
