24, the deceased
***
"Get out of here!" Xu Xiaole hurriedly helped her sister-in-law.
Although he was in the arms of Li Xiqiang, he still made the appearance of injured self-esteem, and walked out briskly with his sleeves.
Tong Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief and closed her eyes slightly: "And you." ”
Xu Xiaole hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, don't be angry, I'll go out immediately, immediately." Do you want me to roll sideways or upright...... Okay, don't be angry, have fun! Seeing that Tong Wanqing was about to go crazy again, he retreated with a smile on his face and closed the door casually.
Tong Wanqing seemed to have been drained of all her strength, and she lay down heavily, feeling irritable in her heart: Really, she dared to ask for silver! Such a black-hearted doctor...... Anyway, it doesn't matter if I die, I can be regarded as worthy of the Xu family. Now that Xiaole has grown up, I don't need to take care of him all the time. I'm also a burden......
Tong Wanqing thought so, the sourness in her heart became more and more sour, and the sadness was depressed in her chest. If it was a normal time, tears would have flowed down a long time ago, but now I feel that it is hurt, but there is not half a tear to flow.
Xu Xiaole heard a bang outside the door, and knew that her sister-in-law had fallen again, and she was quite distressed: her sister-in-law didn't know if it hurt if she fell like this. Yes, the pain is definitely painful, but I don't know if it's a headache or back pain.
Li Xiqiang hadn't gone far yet, and when he saw that Xu Xiaole had also been kicked out, he grinned: "Your sister-in-law is really fierce." ”
Xu Xiaole glanced at the old man and said, "She is a little fierce, but she has a good heart." ”
Li Xiqiang smiled, walked downstairs, and said, "This disease is not incurable." But I'm afraid you won't be able to invite a doctor who can treat this disease. ”
Xu Xiaole remembered the consultation fee given by Ge Zaixing, which was given according to the specifications of famous doctors, a full thirty taels. It's nothing to a rich family, it's a matter of life. For a small family like him, this is a huge number, and the cost of five or six years may not be thirty taels.
Li Xiqiang saw Xu Xiaole meditating, and said, "It's not just about silver. ”
"What else?"
"Famous doctors cherish their feathers, not to say ten percent sure, not six or seven percent sure will not make a move. And they don't want to take over patients who have been treated by other doctors, otherwise who will be the one who will be killed? Li Xiqiang saw that Xu Xiaole didn't understand anything, so he said one more sentence and said, "Why don't you want Ge Zaixing to come?" Because your sister-in-law's illness is not easy to treat as soon as they hear about it, they have studied medicine all their lives, and they have read the medical cases of their predecessors, and I am afraid that they will not be able to cure this disease. ”
Xu Xiaole frowned: "My sister-in-law has a very restrained life on weekdays, and she has practiced martial arts, and she has a strong physique, how can she get such an incurable disease?" ”
Li Xiqiang smiled: "Yes, if anyone can answer this question to you originally, he will be able to cure this disease." ”
The two went downstairs to the patio as they talked, Li Xiqiang walked to the water tank, stopped again, stretched out his hand to hold the water tank, and said, "It seems that this place used to be a family medical hall, when did your family move here?" ”
Xu Xiaole is quite depressed at the moment, and if someone can talk to him, it seems that the depression in his chest can be dispersed, no matter how annoying the person in front of him is. "I was born to live here," he said. My father used to run a medical center, and my grandfather was also a doctor, so I don't know if it was a museum. ”
Li Xiqiang had basically affirmed Xu Xiaole's life experience, and asked again with confirmation: "What is the name of your father and your grandfather?" is also a person in the apricot forest, maybe there is still contact. ”
Xu Xiaole glanced at Li Xiqiang: "My grandfather's name is 'Hong' and 'Xuan', and my father has the word 'Rong'." ”
Li Xiqiang nodded.
Xu Xiaole couldn't help but ask, "Do you know them?" ”
Li Xiqiang said: "I have heard of your father's name, which is said to be the number one quack doctor in Suzhou Prefecture. He naturally knew about Xu Hongxuan, and deliberately concealed it. However, he had never seen Xu Rong, he only knew that Xu Hongxuan had such a son, so he was not a lie.
Xu Xiaole pouted: "Slow down and don't send it!" ”
Li Xiqiang smiled and said, "You still owe me two taels of silver." Although I didn't treat your sister-in-law's illness, it's not that I'm not good at medicine, it's that your sister-in-law won't let me treat it, and it's not me but you. I've run away like this, you can't call me to run for nothing! ”
Xu Xiaole felt that what Li Xiqiang said this time was reasonable, he felt that he was not a person who was messing around, and he would never be able to do anything that relied on people and labor. He said: "I can give you some silver, talk about compensation, but at most one or two!" ”
Li Xiqiang thought for a while with a sad face, and said, "Okay, it's better to talk than nothing." Bring. ”
Xu Xiaole took out the silver, held it in his hand, and made a gesture to give it out, but drew a circle in the air and withdrew it to his chest.
Li Xiqiang grabbed the air, blew his beard and glared: "You tease me!" ”
Xu Xiaole smiled: "It's okay for you, but what kind of illness my sister-in-law is, you have to tell me about it." ”
Li Xiqian muttered, "What do you know?" Can you understand what I said? ”
Xu Xiaole said: "If you don't listen, how do you know if you can understand or not?" ”
Li Xiqiang had no choice but to play casually according to what he had just gained and said: "Your sister-in-law's illness is full of strength and weakness, just like all the blood and qi go up, and she refuses to go down." As for the cause, I can't think of it, and since I don't want to treat it, I can't say much, so as not to hinder other doctors from taking medicine. ”
Xu Xiaole was very ignorant when he heard this, so he gave the silver to Li Xiqiang, and suddenly remembered what Ge Zaixing said at the end, and asked, "What about ginseng?" Is it okay for me to use ginseng to extend my sister-in-law's life? ”
Li Xiqiang stroked his beard: "Ginseng is a great replenishment of vitality, as long as people have a breath, they can always be used." By the way, if you find another doctor, take your sister-in-law's illness from heat stroke, and prescribe medicines such as tangerine peel and Huoxiang to clear the heat and open the body, you can beat it, and it is definitely a quack. ”
Xu Xiaole nodded, although he didn't understand, he also felt that Li Xiqiang still had two points of ability, and he was not really a murderous quack.
Li Xiqiang saw that it was already dark, so he said, "I can't go back to the city now, can I stay at your house for one night?" ”
Xu Xiaole thought that there was really no room to live in at home, and as soon as he entered the door, he faced Hu Meiniang's perverted face, and he categorically couldn't keep him at home. He said: "Ten miles west of the alley, there is a temple of King Xu, you can go there to spend the night." As he spoke, he dragged Li Xiqiang out of the house.
Li Xiqiang shouted, seeing that the door of the courtyard behind him was slamming shut, and he couldn't knock it open again, so he had to leave in a huff, muttering: "As cold-blooded and ruthless as your grandfather, he is really a good grandson of the old Xu family......"
