One day in mid-July, on the antique street of Hezhou City, pedestrians were weaving and traffic was like shuttles. In order to attract customers, the waitress of the hotel stands in front of each restaurant, constantly greeting diners who come and go.

These girls were carefully selected by the boss, all of them were in their twenties, they were good-looking, and they were dressed very fashionably, just to attract customers.

Although the girls hissed and sold their best, some restaurants had a prosperous business and a continuous stream of customers, while others had a lot of doors and a light business.

Among all the restaurants on both sides of the street, only Zhang Ji soup bun shop never arranges a welcome lady. There is only one reason for this, Zhang Ji soup bun shop has a history of more than 300 years, and it has long been famous, not to mention in the city, even in the country. When it was time to open the meal, Zhang Ji's seats were always full, and when the room could not sit down, the boss always arranged the guests under the old locust tree in front of the hotel.

But today at noon is an exception, from 11 o'clock at noon to now, only a dozen guests have been patronized.

The proprietress nicknamed Baozi Shih Tzu came out of the hotel to find out, and as soon as she went out, she found out the reason.

It turned out that there was an old wooden box under the old locust tree, and on the wooden box sat a man holding a wooden sign in his hand.

Farmers who enter the city often buy some local products in the antique street, and Baozi Shih Tzu thought that the one in front of him was too, so he shouted softly at the back: "Hey, this big brother, it is the business hours of the bun shop now, you sit here and affect our business, you move down, change places, and when the meal time is over, you come over again." ”

This man did not move, like a sculpture.

Bao Zi Shih Tzu thought that he had met a deaf person, so he moved his steps lightly and stood in front of this person. She was about to speak, but was stunned by the person in front of her.

Where is the peasant who went to the city to buy local products, it is clearly a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy. Bao Zi Shih Tzu looked at the young man, only to see that his hair was unkempt, he was wearing a white shirt stained with dirt, and a pair of shabby jeans had rotten holes.

"It turned out to be a Hanako."

Bao Zi Xi Shi thought in his heart, and couldn't help blurting out: "If you want food, please move somewhere, don't affect my business."

"I'm not asking for food, I'm treating people." The boy immediately argued.

The boy said, shaking the wooden card in his hand.

Only then did Bao Shih Tzu notice the wooden sign held in the young man's hand. I saw a crooked writing on the wooden plaque: Folk master, wonderful hand rejuvenation, specializing in the treatment of incurable diseases, good at acupuncture and massage, gynecological diseases.

There is a bracket behind the advertising slogan, which reads: Give money after cure, don't need money if you can't heal, integrity-based, golden mouth.

Baozi Shih Tzu didn't wait to finish reading it, and he was already smiling from ear to ear. If you don't learn well at a young age, if you want to deceive people, you also dress more exquisitely, and you are dressed in tatters, who believes it.

Bao Zi Xi Shi thought with a smile, and couldn't help but say: "Little brother, you move a place first, otherwise if you sit here, I won't be able to do business." ”

"This is the sidewalk, the tree belongs to the public, and the place belongs to everyone, please don't affect my medical practice." The boy hadn't eaten since yesterday, and he didn't have the strength to speak, his voice was very low, but his tone was extremely strict.

"If you encounter someone who is slanderous, don't you just want to mix a few buns to eat, no problem, I will satisfy you." Bun Xi Shi thought to himself, and shouted inside: "Hey, Xiaohong, take a cage of buns out." ”

After answering inside, Xiaohong walked out of it with a basket of steamed buns.

"Give it to him." Bao Zi Shih Tzu pointed at the boy.

"The proprietress is really good, she is in an emergency again, her kindness is rewarded, and your business will definitely become more and more prosperous."

Xiaohong praised the proprietress as she walked up to the boy and said, "Hey, please stand up, I'll put the steamer on the box." ”

The young man didn't even look at it, and said, "I'm not called Hanako, please pay attention to your wording, and besides, I don't have any money, but I don't want to take advantage of others." ”

Xiaohong listened to the young man's words, couldn't help but get angry, and said bitterly: "Hey, don't be ignorant, the boss lady gave you food because she saw that you were pitiful, and she didn't eat it." ”

Xiaohong was about to leave with the bun, but was stopped by the bun Shih Tzu.

"Young man, you said that you are not meritorious, then I will give you a chance to make meritorious service, since you said that you will see a doctor, please tell me, which of us is sick, what kind of disease is it, and how to cure it."

The young man took out a book from his arms, stood up and asked Bao Zi Shih Tzu to sit on the wooden box, first look at Bao Zi Shih's face, and then look at her tongue coating, and said: "You are not sick, just a little overnourished, treatment, pay more attention to exercise in the future." Next. ”

The proprietress couldn't help but feel amused when she saw the young man's serious expression and heard him say something serious. In order to verify whether the young man was really a liar or mentally abnormal, he took the steamer in Xiaohong's hand and motioned for Xiaohong to sit on the wooden box.

The young man also looked at Xiaohong carefully, looked at Xiaohong's tongue coating again, and then asked Xiaohong to stretch out his hand to check Xiaohong's pulse.

Xiaohong's opinion of the teenager is the same as that of Baozi Shih, thinking that the teenager is pretending, not only refusing to cooperate, but mocking: "Stop acting, let's eat the buns, I'm not sick, if you don't eat the buns, you will get hungry and sick." ”

The young man showed a contemptuous smile on his face and said, "I have already seen that you are sick, and I will take your pulse, but I just want to confirm it from many aspects." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm in good health, this year's pre-college entrance examination physical examination, the doctors in the tertiary A hospital didn't see the disease, when I came to you, I became a patient instead, let's eat the buns while they're hot, and the re-enactment will be a mess."

The passers-by didn't know what the two women and the teenager were entangled in, so they stopped to watch. After listening to Xiaohong's words, those who have good deeds want to see the excitement and say, "Then let him talk about it and see what kind of disease you have." ”

"Don't ask, just look at what he's wearing, it's clear that it's a flower child, and what else specializes in treating incurable diseases, and in today's world, we don't even believe in experts, and we still believe that you are called a flower child."

"Yes, yes, it's clearly a flower child, who cheats to eat and drink."

"Hurry up and drive him away, delay business, and pollute the city."

People talked a lot, talking with guns and sticks, but the young man was not angry, and whispered: "This girl, you do suffer from gynecological diseases, specifically, qi stagnation and blood stasis, blood veins, a few days before the monthly rest is distended and painful, it seems to be continuous, but in fact, the amount is not large, others are at most three or five days, you sometimes continue for seven or eight days, the pain is unbearable, you have to take analgesics, I am right." ”

Listening to the young man's words, Xiaohong first blushed, and then nodded frequently.

Because the young man's voice was too low, the onlookers couldn't hear it clearly, and some people saw Xiaohong nodding frequently, for fear that Xiaohong would be deceived, so they couldn't help but remind: "Girl, be careful, now the liars are clever in deception, and many people are deceived." ”

Xiaohong ignored the well-wisher's reminder and asked in a low voice, "Since you know what kind of disease I am, is there a way to cure it?" ”

The boy motioned for Xiaohong to stand up from the wooden box, opened the box himself, took out a bag of things from it and handed it to Xiaohong, explained it to her ear, and then bent down, reached out and pinched Xiaohong's foot and neck, and asked Xiaohong if she understood.

Xiaohong nodded frequently, with a smile on her face, stood up and walked to Baozi Shih's side, and said in a low voice: "Boss, no matter whether these medicines are useful or not, he does see the symptoms, and he always charges money for treating people, you lend me some money first, and I can pay him." ”

"How much?" Bun Shih Tzu reached into his pocket and pulled out a stack of money, among which was a hundred-dollar bill, and the rest were change.

"I'll give him as much as he wants, and you deduct it from my salary." Xiaohong handed the money to the boy.

The young man took out a few ten-yuan denominations from the money handed over by Xiaohong, and then pushed Xiaohong's hand back.

"That's it?" Xiaohong asked.

"It's the cost of a course of treatment, the standard price." The teenager said.

The young man walked to the side of Baozi Xi Shi with the money he had just arrived, handed the money over, and said in a low voice: "These are all steamed buns, you can buy as many as you want." ”

The proprietress handed the steamer to the young man, but instead of taking the money, she said, "If you can really cure incurable diseases, don't stand on the street and practice medicine, and those who don't know think you are a liar, I will take a patient for you." You eat these buns first, and I'll give them to you when it's not enough. ”

He turned to Xiaohong and said, "You go inside and tell the chef to make a bowl of seafood soup and bring it out." ”

Little Red left.

The onlookers saw what had just happened and were about to leave after some discussion.

The boy had just eaten three or four buns one by one, when suddenly, a female voice came.

"Hey, I didn't think that a person in tattered clothes could have such a clever medical skill, I think it's just colluded in advance to deceive people."

People turned their eyes over, only to see a handsome girl in a skirt squeezing through the crowd and walking towards Luo Yuhan.

These words were extremely unfriendly, and if he were someone else, he would have already begun to defend himself, but the boy still lowered his head and ate his own bun as if he hadn't heard it, and didn't even look at the girl.

Seeing that the young man ignored him, the person who spoke quickened his pace, flew up, and kicked the steamer in the young man's hand.

The steamer flew into the air, and the boy didn't look at it, but rose up and stretched out his hand. The steamer seemed to have eyes, and it fell steadily into the boy's hands.

The crowd erupted in sighs and admiration.
