————————————————————

Jishitang and Wuweitang are on a street, not far apart, it is the largest pharmacy in Dongda County, the shopkeeper of Jishitang and the doctor surnamed Qian, medical skills are like gods, famous far and near, many people have come to him for hundreds of miles to see a doctor, over the years have saved a lot of other doctors have been determined to die, it is rumored that after he healed the patient, the Yama King of the Yama Hall did not dare to take away, plus he is righteous, the poor patients have always come to the free clinic, never charge a penny, so everyone gave him a nickname called "money does not collect". It's been a long time, but no one remembers his real name.

Lin Qingdai said: "In that case, then why didn't you send the patient to the Qian Divine Doctor for treatment in the first place?" ”

The strong man looked sad: "Alas! It's all fate! If it weren't for the fact that Dr. Qian Shen escorted the second grandmother of Pang County Lieutenant who was seriously ill to Fucheng a few days ago, she wouldn't be able to come back for a while, and my brother was in danger, plus listen to your Wuweitang, this Chai doctor, ......, ah no, Chai quack! He said he could cure the disease, so how could I send my brother to him for healing?! ”

Lin Qingdai only hesitated and turned her head to look at the doctor sitting in the hall.

Doctor Chai sighed, shook his head miserably, and said: "It's the old man who miscalculated, the old man saw that although he was sluggish, he was hot and sweatless, and his body was still strong, and he estimated that he could afford it, so he attacked with medicine and wanted to cure it as soon as possible, but he forgot that if he wanted to hurry, he couldn't reach it, alas, ......!" ”

An old woman in the crowd outside the door shouted: "What are you doing with so much, tying up this murderous quack doctor and taking him to the official!" The others also shouted, waving sticks, and some showed their hemp ropes to come in and tie up Dr. Chai.

Lin Qingdai snorted coldly, and the sleeve robe was blown out, shaking out the few men who rushed up, but fortunately, the people behind caught it and didn't fall to the ground. Lin Qingdai's eyes were like electricity, and she said: "Whoever dares to mess around again, don't blame me for being unkind!" ”

Those people involuntarily took a few steps back, just brandishing sticks and screaming to urge others to come forward, but no one dared to come up again.

The man waved his hand, and everyone behind him fell silent. The strong man said coldly to Lin Qingdai: "Shopkeeper Lin, although this quack doctor is your doctor, but he has a debt and a master, there is no problem with your Wuweitang's medicine, but his prescription killed my brother, so we are only looking for his bad luck and Wuweitang Wuguan with you." Please get out of the way! ”

Lin Qingdai turned her back on her hands and said lightly: "Since he is the doctor hired by my Wuwei Hall, I will naturally come forward to end the accident." ”

"Okay, then let's ask Shopkeeper Lin to give me a word, how is this matter over?"

"People can't be resurrected after death, even if Dr. Chai is sent to the official, can Brother Ling be brought back to life? Dr. Chai is also a good intention, he wants to cure Brother Ling's illness as soon as possible, but it is an unintentional mistake, Dr. Chai has always been very accurate in seeing a doctor, and the neighbors are praised, this time the judgment of the disease is also correct, but the medicine is a little fierce, and the patient can't resist the power of the medicine. You also said just now that Brother Ling was in critical condition at that time, and his life was instantaneous, and Doctor Qian was not in the county, so he asked Dr. Chai for treatment, so in the final analysis, this matter is still because Brother Ling is critically ill, and his life is expensive, how can this be all blamed on our doctor? ”

This is reasonable, the strong man and others came to ask for the guilt in grief, but after thinking about it carefully, in the final analysis, this matter is because his brother is too sick, and he can't blame the doctor for it, so he quietly put down the guy in his hand.

Lin Qingdai breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Your brother died, we are also very sad, Dr. Chai is from our Wuweitang, and there are some faults in this prescription, and our Wuweitang will be responsible for compensating for this fault." After walking to the counter, he took out a silver ingot from the money box and returned to the strong man: "This is twenty taels of silver, which is considered to compensate you for the burial expenses." How about this matter? ”

The strong man hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at the person behind him. Seeing that the shopkeeper Lin was generous and gave twenty taels, and the government's previous judgment to compensate for the burning of silver was only twelve or three taels, and they had already taken advantage of it, so no one objected.

The strong man took the silver, wiped a handful of tears, hugged his fists and said: "Shopkeeper Lin is benevolent, thank you!" He turned to look at the doctor surnamed Chai, pointed at him and snorted, "Quack! I advise you to go back to farming and ploughing the land and take your grandson, so as not to harm others again! Let's go! ”

A group of people carried the corpse, crying and leaving.

The crowd dispersed, and the front of the Wuwei Hall was deserted again, and Dr. Chai stood there, looking out of the gate in despair, like a clay sculpture.

Lin Qingdai walked over and sighed softly: "Sir, it's late, you're tired, go back and rest early." ”

Dr. Chai nodded, arched his hand, and said sadly: "Thank you......!" He staggered out the door, his gray hair fluttering in the evening breeze.

Du Wenhao saw that this kind of thing had just happened in their pharmacy, and he went to apply for a job at this time, I am afraid that people will not have the heart to take care of it, so he will come back after a while. Turn around and walk slowly along the street.

Passing by the door of the Jishitang of the Qian Divine Doctor mentioned by the strong man just now, I saw that this medicine shop was very large and magnificent, and there were five or six people who were just picking up medicines. There is an endless stream of patients who come to seek medical advice. It's dark now, and there are still a lot of patients in the store.

He walked around for a while, and saw that many shops had begun to close their doors with door boards, so he paced back to the "Five Flavors" with his rumbling stomach.

Seeing a big fat guy coming out with a few door panels from a distance, and was about to close the door panel, Du Wenhao hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Wait! This big brother. Please wait. ”

The big fat man turned his head: "This uncle, do you look at the disease or pick up medicine?" If you are sick, you will have to come tomorrow and go home. ”

"I don't want to be sick, I'm here to be a shop guy."

"Oh, sorry then, we've got a guy to get in, you're late. You see, the revelations on the door have been torn off. ”

Du Wenhao's heart was cold: "Found it?" Who is it? ”

The fat guy scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "It's ......, hehe, it's me!" Hehe, I just came to apply, and the shopkeeper has already left me. There's only one guy in the store, so, hey, hey, hey......, I'm sorry! ”

Du Wenhao was full of disappointment, he didn't expect that he had lost this opportunity for employment after going out for a walk and coming back, so he couldn't help but smile embarrassedly: "It's nothing, I'm leaving......" turned around and buried his head and walked out in frustration.

He lowered his head and didn't pay attention, and almost collided with a person, but fortunately, the man was light on his hands and feet, floated away, and said crisply: "Hey! Watch it! ”

"I'm sorry! To ......" Du Wenhao hurriedly bowed down and apologized. Listening to the voice is a woman, and the voice is crisp with a little immaturity, I can't help but look up, but it is a little girl, fifteen or sixteen years old, melon seed face, skin white like clotted fat, big eyes, black and bright, glanced at Du Wenhao, and hurriedly ran into the pharmacy.

The fat guy on the door panel hurriedly chased in and said, "Hey! This girl, do you pick up medicine? ”

"Where's Dr. Chai? I'm from the inn opposite, and a guest is sick, and I'm going to see Dr. Chai! ”

"Girl, I'm really sorry, it's almost the second watch, and the doctor has gone home."

The little girl stomped her foot: "What can I do!" ”

At this time, Lin Qingdai's voice came from the back hall: "Fei'er! Is that you? ”

"It's me, Sister Qingdai!"

While speaking, Lin Qingdai walked out of the back hall and said to the fat guy: "Silly fat, this is the daughter of the Song shopkeeper of the 'Hengxiang Inn' at the other door!" ”

The fat guy hurriedly huffed his waist and said, "Snow girl, I'm sorry, I'm a new guy, my name is Zhu Youcai, and everyone calls me 'stupid fat'." Hey hey"

Xue Fei'er ignored him and said to Lin Qingdai: "Sister Qingdai, there is a child in our store who has a big abscess on his buttocks, which hurts so badly and cries so badly, I want to come and see if Dr. Chai is gone, let me go over and take a look." ”

Lin Qingdai apologized: "Doctor Chai has been gone for a while. Why don't I call a guy for you and ask him to come to the doctor? ”

Xue Fei'er hesitated for a moment: "Forget it, their mother and daughter are afraid that they can't afford to pay for the outpatient fee, I begged my father to help them, but my father opened his mouth and still said 'Ci does not open a store', and refuses to take the money out, but the divine doctor in Jishitang does not collect the money and is not there, and other doctors are not as good as him to talk to, alas!" Forget it, anyway, the boils on the buttocks will be fine for a while, but pity this kid ......, I'll go back! ”

Xue Fei'er crossed the threshold and walked out of the pharmacy.

Their conversation was listened to by Du Wenhao, the opportunity could not be lost, and the time would not come again, even if he didn't know if this was an opportunity, Du Wenhao still felt that he should seize it. Hurriedly stepped forward and arched his hand: "This girl, I am a bell doctor, and I am good at treating carbuncles and boils, why not let me show the child?" ”
