Chapter 19: The Heart of the Hospital (2)

Everything was taken care of for the move, and according to the original arrangement, Liu Jingyi lived in the East Cross Courtyard that had been prepared for her a long time ago.

Liu Jingyi never forgot the medical hall at the back of the new house. This medical hall is called Renxin Medical Center, which was opened by a doctor surnamed Bai, this person is named Bai Bingyan, who has a golden needle stunt and is famous in Liuzhou. Bai Bingyan's medical skills are superb, starting from a doctor, slowly developing, and finally opening this benevolent medical center. In addition to Bai Bingyan, he also accepted several apprentices.

Renxin Medical Center is becoming more and more famous, and Bai Bingyan also married a wife and had a daughter. Originally, life would get better and better, but the incident of a doctor of the dead in the hospital made this benevolent medical center go downhill.

"Shisu, how did I ask you to inquire before?" Liu Jingyi asked.

"Girl, I've got you covered." Zi Su said, "I heard that a woman came to the hospital three years ago with a baby in her arms, and the baby was still alive when she came, but after Bai Bingyan gave him an injection, it only took an hour for the baby to die in the hospital." Later, the woman refused to give up, not saying that Bai Bingyan had killed the child and reported it to the official. However, after checking it, the government believed that there was no evidence to prove that Bai Bingyan had killed the child, so it did not file a case. ”

Zi Su picked up the tea on the table and moistened her lips, and continued, "But the woman has not been relenting, put the child's body at the door of the medical hall, and led a group of family members to surround the door of the medical hall, wailing every day, and when she saw people, she said that Bai Bingyan had cured people. ”

"Huh?" Liu Jingyi was surprised: "Then how did this group of people go?" ”

"They made trouble at the entrance of the hospital every day, which lasted for about a month, and the medical hall couldn't see a doctor normally, and Bai Bingyan had no choice, so he gave the woman a large sum of money, which was considered to be ruined and avoided disaster. The woman got the money and left with her family. ”

After this incident, Bai Bingyan may have been stimulated and often absent-minded, and later once he saw a doctor and prescribed the wrong medicine, which caused the patient's condition to worsen, and the patient went to other medical centers before he got better. Since then, fewer and fewer people have gone to Renxin Medical Center to see a doctor, and it has slowly declined. ”

After listening to the news from Zisu, Liu Jingyi had a bottom in her heart. "Zisu, look at the money we have saved in the past few years, whether it is enough to buy that medical hall."

When Shiso heard this, she moved to their small vault. It turned out that when she was in Mu Wangfu, in addition to diagnosing Jing Ziyan, Liu Jingyi often saw the maids, Liu Jingyi was not a medical officer in the palace, so she had no obligation to see the maids. Therefore, every time they see the maids, they will more or less give Liu Jingyi some consultation money.

After coming to Xiaotian Village, the money was taken out to give Jing Ziyan the start-up capital for the medicinal materials business, and later Liu Jingyi would occasionally go to the clinic, and the consultation money would be handed over to Youxi and included in the unified account room, and Liu Jingyi received the monthly bill on a monthly basis.

But as the business continued to expand and their lives became richer and richer after they came to Xiaotian Village, Jing Ziyan only asked Liu Jingyi to take one-third of the consultation fee to the account office, and the rest was distributed by themselves. Therefore, in addition to the monthly routine every month, Liu Jingyi also has her own consultation fee at her disposal.

There are only two of them, and they don't like extravagance, so the expenses are not large. Shisu put a rosewood box carved with auspicious ruyi patterns on the low table and said happily: "Girl, our savings over the years are here. ”

Liu Jingyi has a habit of letting Shisu get the silver number and exchange it for a silver ticket when the silver tael accumulates a certain amount. Zi Su sat opposite Liu Jingyi, but Liu Jingyi handed over the key, opened the box, took out a stack of silver tickets, and the two of them counted them.

"This one is fifty taels, this one is one hundred taels... Oh, by the way, girl, last time Yanfu directly gave two gold ingots, the slave went to the silver number to exchange a hundred taels of silver, of which thirty taels were given to the account room, and the remaining slave and maid exchanged a silver ticket of fifty taels, twenty taels of silver, and the silver ticket was placed in it, and the silver was placed in the money cabinet for our usual expenses. ”

After speaking, Shisu got up and walked towards the East Warm Pavilion, and took out one or two silver ingots in a cabinet in the East Warm Pavilion. "Look, it's all here."

"Okay, let's put it all here, let's count how much money we've saved." Liu Jingyi said softly.

Shiso began to count one by one again, a total of three fifty taels, a silver ticket of one hundred taels, plus these two silver ingots, a total of two hundred and seventy taels of silver.

Liu Jingyi sighed softly, "Zisu, are our usual monthly cases and consultation fees here?" ”

Zi Su nodded: "Girl, your usual monthly routine is five taels of silver, and the slave maid is two taels of silver." The slave and maid usually don't need silver, so every time the girl asks the slave and maid to go to the silver number to redeem the silver ticket, the slave and maid will also add their own monthly routines. ”

Liu Jingyi shook her head: "You girl, how stupid, you have to save some money for yourself." ”

"There are still slaves and maids, usually the girls are generous, and the gold and silver jewelry they are rewarding, and the slaves and maids have all saved them."

"Shiso, thank you." Liu Jingyi looked at Zisu gratefully.

"At the beginning, if you hadn't saved the slave and the slave's mother, the slave might have died. The slave maid's whole life is a girl's, not to mention that after following the girl, you treat the slave and maid like a sister, and you have not let the slave and maid suffer the slightest grievance, and the slave and maid have always remembered it. Shiso said.

"The girl's great kindness to the slave and maid, the slave and the maid cannot be repaid. Therefore, wherever the girl goes in the future, the slave and maid will go, and the slave and maid will follow the girl for the rest of their lives. So, slaves don't need any money. Shiso knelt down and cried.

"Alright, hurry up." Liu Jingyi said dotingly. "No matter where you go, I will take you with me, but you are a girl's family, and you will marry after all, since you don't prepare yourself, I will prepare it for you in the future."

"However, you also have to save some money for yourself, and you have your mother and sister, who also need your help." Liu Jingyi said sincerely.

"The slave's mother has already remarried with her sister, and I heard that she married a lantern craftsman, and her life is quite rich. So they don't need slaves and maids to help. ”

"Girl, don't plan for the slave maid, just use the money. If you can help the girl, it will be the greatest comfort to the slave. ”

Liu Jingyi nodded. "Put the ticket away. Let's change our clothes and go to the hospital. ”

In recent days, there have been no important cases in the yamen, and Jing Ziyan can rest at home. Jing Ziyan, who was practicing swords in the courtyard, saw Liu Jingyi coming, so he put away his sword, looked at Liu Jingyi and asked, "Yi'er, where are you going?" ”

Liu Jingyi bowed, "Childe, Jingyi wants to go to the medical hall you said." ”

The corners of Jing Ziyan's mouth rose slightly, "I know that you can't forget that medical hall, let's go, I'll go with you." ”

After speaking, Jing Ziyan finished changing his clothes, summoned Mo Yu and Han Che, and came to the Renxin Medical Hall with Liu Jingyi. Although the Renxin Medical Center is still open, the outside door of the medical hall is full of birds, and the store is even more deserted, with three apprentices dressed as men in the store, one is wiping the medicine cabinet, one is cutting medicinal herbs, and the other is reading a book. Although no one was seen, they still did their best to maintain the faΓ§ade of the hospital.

Seeing that someone was coming, the three of them stopped what they were doing and surrounded them: "This son, please take a seat, I don't know who is coming to see the doctor?" ”

The three of them looked at the several men in front of them, each with ruddy faces and full of energy, not sick people, but one of them covered half of his face with a mask.

Jing Ziyan stepped forward and said, "We didn't come to see a doctor, we just heard that this medical hall was going to be transferred, so we came to inquire." ”

Hearing that they had come to buy the medical hall, the three of them suddenly had obvious displeasure on their faces. An apprentice named Wu Haisheng said, "Childe, later, I will go to ask my wife." ”

With that, he turned around and went up to the second floor. After a while, a dignified but haggard woman walked down, she was only in her thirties, but her face was sallow and extremely weak.

"I heard that Childe wants to buy our family's medical hall?" The woman opened her mouth and said, "The concubine is the wife of our father-in-law, and now my father-in-law is already a dry bone loess, and everything is up to me." ”

"This..." Jing Ziyan glanced at Liu Jingyi, and both of them were surprised in their eyes. "What's going on?" Jing Ziyan asked.

Madame Bai sighed heavily. "Two years ago, the son-in-law of Zuojiazhuang in the west of the city suddenly fell ill and asked my father-in-law to go to see a doctor, but after my father-in-law gave him an injection, the son-in-law died the next day." As she spoke, Mrs. Bai began to sob, wiping her tears with her sleeves: "The owner of Zuo Zhuang reported to the official in anger, and the government put my family minister in prison, and there has been no news so far. ”

Jing Ziyan frowned, "The government investigates the case and pays attention to evidence, how can you arrest people indiscriminately without evidence?" ”

"The people in the government said that through the autopsy, Zuo Gongzi died because of the epidemic infection, and the cause of death was that my prime minister used a golden needle infected with the epidemic to inject Zuo Gongzi." Mrs. Bai kept sobbing, "My family's golden needle stunt is the best in Liuzhou, and he is very cautious every time he uses the needle, how can he let the golden needle be infected." ”

"I committed suicide in prison." Madame Bai clutched her chest in pain, sobbing and unable to speak a continuous sentence for a while.

After a period of silence, Mrs. Bai suddenly spoke a little too high, and said sadly, "But my father-in-law is wronged. . . ”

Madam Bai wiped her tears, "Son, you can take down this medical hall if you want, there is a condition for the concubine, you have to clear up the grievances of my father-in-law." In the past two years, people have kept coming to buy this medical center, but when they heard the conditions of the concubine, they all did it. ”

At this time, a piercing scream came from upstairs, which frightened Liu Jingyi.

"Childe, think about it, it's time for the concubine to go upstairs."

Liu Jingyi hurriedly stepped forward to stop Mrs. Bai: "Madam, is there anyone upstairs?" Is it a disease? ”

Hearing Liu Jingyi's question, Mrs. Bai, who was already calm, was moved again. "Don't hide it from the son, the person upstairs is a little girl, suffering from madness, sometimes good and sometimes bad, no one knows when she starts the illness, and she is easy to hurt herself."

Liu Jingyi's eyes looked upstairs, and she felt pity. "Madam, can you ask someone to treat Miss's illness?"

"I've hired a lot of doctors, and there is no shortage of famous doctors, but they can't do anything." Madame Bai shook her head, her voice extremely pale.

"In the lower part of the medical technique, can you let the young lady diagnose the lower pulse?"

"You? Madame Bai looked at Liu Jingyi in front of her, and did not trust this teenager who looked like he was only a teenager. "Well, you go ahead and try it."
