Chapter 67: In the Silence
Zhang Laohan nodded and said: "Well, that's right, then I'll tell you,—— last time you cured the illness of the county lieutenant's concubine, there were rumors, saying that in fact, the Qian Divine Doctor had been almost cured before, and you used words to squeeze others, and the Qian Divine Doctor was angry, and he stopped curing it, and you picked up an empty one, which cured the second grandmother's, and the result not only did not sell the money Divine Doctor well, but also forced other people to worship you as a teacher!" Doctor Qian didn't have the same knowledge as you, but the old mother of the county lieutenant, who was deaf and blind, was coaxed by you, not only gave her granddaughter to you, but also helped force the money not to accept the apprenticeship, otherwise you would have to sue the royal court, and the money was not accepted, and in desperation, she was cured and submissive. ”
Du Wenhao was angry: "Old man, what else do they say about me?" ”
"Alas! The same rice raises a hundred kinds of people! The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds! These people also said, you deceived the old mother and wife of the county lieutenant into paying money to share your Wuweitang, your business is so bad, if you don't rely on cheating, who will take the money to play in this water? When there is a lot of real money, there is nowhere to put it? He also said that the little widow of the shopkeeper of Wuweitang Lin drank with you in the middle of the night under the moon, muttering and laughing and laughing......, and I don't know what to do.
Du Wenhao said angrily: "We are drinking under the moon, practicing the medical prescription wine order, and it is also in the way of them?" Who said this? ”
Zhang Laohan shook his head: "I don't know the specifics, I heard these words in the 'Mingyuanju' teahouse, and the old man is the tea doctor there." This tea house in the tea garden was jointly opened by the wife of the divine doctor who does not charge money in Jishitang and the wife of Yan Miaoshou. By the way, what my son Dongsheng heard was similar to what the old man said, he was running the hall in the 'World Restaurant'. He has something to tell you! Very important! ”
Du Wenhao's heart sank and looked at Zhang Dongsheng, the son of Zhang Laohan.
Zhang Dongsheng lowered his voice and leaned into Du Wenhao's ear and said, "Judging from the small, many of these rumors came out of my father's Mingyuan House and my Tianxia restaurant!" ”
"Oh? Do you know who made my rumors in your restaurant? ”
"Yes......" Zhang Laohan's son's voice was lowered, and it almost reached Du Wenhao's ear: "It's the shopkeeper of the Tianxia Restaurant who said to the guys in the store and some regular customers, so it went out!" ”
Du Wenhao was so angry that he almost slapped the table: "This restaurant shopkeeper has a grudge against me?" Why do you spread such rumors? ”
Zhang Laohan hurriedly sighed and said in a low voice: "Mr. Du doesn't know yet, the owner of this restaurant is the county chief bookkeeper Liao Deliao, who opened this restaurant in the name of his wife Xu!" I heard that this Lord Liao Deliao is the opposite of the Pang County Lieutenant, and the two usually fight a lot! ”
"What do they care about me?"
"Mr. Du, who in the entire county doesn't know that you are now the quasi-son-in-law of the county lieutenant? Lord Liao wants to deal with a huge person, so naturally he will have to deal with you together. You don't know yet, do you? Lord Liao Deliao is also one of the proprietors of Renyi Hall in the county! This was opened in the name of his brother-in-law, who was the shopkeeper of the Renyi Hall and the doctor Xu Sihai! ”
Renyi Pharmacy is the second largest pharmacy in the county after Jishitang, Du Wenhao crossed over the day, he used to wander at the door of the pharmacy, and felt that the pharmacy business was not much worse than Jishitang, Du Wenhao smiled bitterly: "It turns out that I was unconsciously involved in their infighting!" ”
"Isn't it, besides, your peers are enemies, you will Hua Tuo's magic skills of caesarean section to heal injuries, once everyone knows about it, they will all come to you to see the disease, and they are not allowed to drink the northwest wind in Renyi Hall? Naturally, I'm going to fix you! ”
"Hehe, it's not so easy to fix me!"
"That's, not to mention that there are huge people covering you, you are also taking advantage of it. This gossip is secondary, there is something more important than that, and I have to tell you quickly! Don't follow the way of these villains! ”
Hearing him say solemnly, Du Wenhao's heart tightened: "What's the matter?" ”
"Mr. Du, did you cut off Liu Zhukuai's spleen ......?"
"Yes! - What is this called! What do you mean I cut out his spleen? It was his spleen that had been rotted by a stick and had to be surgically removed in order to save his life! ”
"That's not what I heard!"
Du Wenhao was stunned and asked, "What's going on?" ”
"I heard that Dr. Xu from Renyi Hall said that the spleen was not a pestle, but a knife wound!"
Du Wenhao sneered: "He knows a fart!" Liu Zhukuai was broken by someone with a stick and pestle, which was a blunt force injury! Even the belly is not broken, where did the knife wound in the spleen in the stomach come from? - No, wait......! What does he mean, I'm catching a quick spleen cutter in Liu? ”
Zhang Laohan's son looked solemn and nodded.
Du Wenhao was furious: "It's a fart!" I was kind enough to save his son, but it became mine, didn't it? Why should I cut his son's spleen? Am I eating too much? His son was already lying in the mourning hall, and I saved him! I'm still lying behind my Gomido and gasping for breath! ”
"But no, there are many people in this world who have no conscience! It's not a rumor alone, but they discussed how to sue you to go to the yamen in Xu Sihai's private dining room this morning, and I was very anxious when I heard it, so I took a leave and ran out to find my father to come to the hall to tell you, you have to be prepared, maybe the people from the yamen will come in a blink of an eye! ”
Du Wenhao smiled bitterly: "It's really ****** kind to be struck by thunder!" ”
"No, Liu Zhu is about to save your life, and he is already lying in the coffin, they are not grateful to Dade, but want to trouble you, is there still a conscience in this world?"
At this time, I suddenly heard the crisp sound of horses' hooves on the bluestone street, as well as the sound of hurried footsteps, and in a blink of an eye came to the front of the hall, a horse's front feet rose into the air, and a long neigh, fell, snorted, and a person jumped on the horseback, tall, wearing a short shirt and carrying a waist knife, it was Lei Tiebiao, the head of the Yamen. The rest of the people who followed, but they were all dressed in black shirts.
Lei Zhutou asked everyone to wait outside, and strode in. Hugging his fists and saying: "Doctor Du!" ”
Du Wenhao slowly stood up and arched his hand: "Is there a noble cadre in Lei Catcher?" ”
"Hmm......" Lei Zhutou couldn't find the right words for a while, and pondered for a moment, and then said: "Liu Zhukuai's father, Liu Laohan, and Dr. Xu Sihai of Renyi Hall, have sued you to the Yamen." Lord Zhixian asked me to send you to the hall for questioning! ”
Du Wenhao was furious, looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hahaha, there are really people in this world who will take revenge!" May I ask Lei Catcher, what are they accusing me of? ”
"Hmm...... Quack homicide! ”
In ancient times, the crime of homicide by quack doctors was when a quack doctor deliberately did not follow the prescription for treatment, and treated a serious illness knowing that he knew it was serious, or he knew that the illness was minor and treated it heavily, resulting in death or injury. This crime is a felony, and once it is confirmed, you will lose your head.
Du Wenhao's heart sank, and he asked coldly: "Why did I kill someone because of a quack?" ”
"I don't know the specifics yet, they just beat the drum and shouted grievances, and they didn't write a complaint, and the county lord ordered to take you to Shengtang to ask about the case." Lei Zhutou took a step forward, lowered his voice and said: "Doctor Du, to be honest, I know that you were wronged, you kindly saved Liu Zhukuai, this is all Xu Sihai and others want to frame you!" Trumped-up charges! It's really infuriating, and I've already sent someone to tell Lieutenant Pang about this urgently. County Lieutenant Pang reassures you that he has found Master Hou, the chief of staff of the eldest master, and the county magistrate has always been obedient to Master Hou's words. With Lieutenant Pang and our brothers, everyone's eyes are bright, they will help you, and they will never let you suffer! ”
Du Wenhao's heart warmed when he heard this, and he hugged his fists and said: "Thank you brothers!" ”
Lei Zhutou hesitated slightly, and then said: "Liu Laohan asked to carry Liu Zhu to Renyi Hall quickly, so that he could Xu Sihai for treatment. ”
"What did he do earlier? Didn't they carry Liu Yu to find all the doctors in the county yesterday? ”
"Dr. Xu said ......, saying that he was out of the clinic at that time, and if he was there, he would not let Mr. Du come nonsense."
"...... am I nonsense? Haha, I've saved my life! Walk! Go to the court and reason with him! ”
He was about to leave, when he suddenly heard Lin Qingdai's voice behind him: "Wait! I'll go too! ”
Turning around, I saw Lin Qingdai coming over with broken steps, and her eyes were cold: "Lei Zhutou, Dr. Du is the second shopkeeper of my Wuwei Hall, and he is also the doctor sitting in the hall, can I hear his lawsuit?" ”
"Absolutely!"
"Okay, close the door of the pharmacy and go together!"
The maid Yingzi, the shopkeeper Wu Cong, Silly Fat, and the old Wang Tou and Aunt Wang, who were doing errands, all came out, and after listening to Lin Qingdai's words, they hurriedly agreed, "Okay!" "If you take the door panel, you have to close the door of the pharmacy.
Du Wenhao waved his hand: "No!" You have to leave someone to guard Liu Catch! He's still unconscious, and he can't afford to miss someone around him! ”
Wu Cong, the shopkeeper, stomped his feet and said, "Doctor Du! They don't see you as a human being, so what do you care about them? ”
"One yard to one yard, his father is unjust, we can't be unkind! Liu Zhukuai was seriously injured in order to catch the thief, and he is not out of danger yet, I must do my best to save his life! ”
Lei Zhutou knelt down on one knee, hugged his fists and said: "Doctor Du, Lei Mou thank you for the injured brothers!" Your great kindness, our brothers are unforgettable! In the hall, we will try our best to ensure that you are safe and well, doctor! ”
