Chapter 57: Blood Ginseng

"Miss Qiao, it's okay to have something to say," the shopkeeper sat down at the table, and the shelves in his hand were full of account books from recent years. He poured her a cup of tea, then sat down and said, "There are no outsiders here." ”

"Okay." Qiao Ran nodded and looked at the shopkeeper, "What I want to ask about is an old thing." ”

The shopkeeper picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip gently: "Which one?" ”

"Qiao's family."

Qiao's family? The shopkeeper's hand paused, and when he saw the girl in front of him, he suddenly reacted: "You...... Could it be that Miss Joe? "Yes, I heard that Miss Qiao gave birth to a good look, and the woman in front of me surnamed Qiao gave birth to a good look, and she asked about the Qiao family, not Miss Qiao?

"I'm that Miss Joe." Qiao Ran nodded and looked at the shopkeeper, "So, can you say anything about the Qiao family?" ”

The shopkeeper was embarrassed for a moment, and when he saw the "gnocchi" in her hand, he coughed lightly and said loudly: "What does Miss Qiao want to ask?" ”

"My grandmother was seriously ill and took your Yuanchuntang's medicine, right?" Qiao Ran asked.

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "My Yuanchuntang's medicine is fine, it's just that this kid is just looking at the dishes and dropping the bag, and he doesn't dare to start the things of the Qiao family." ”

"I know, I want to ask if my grandmother took your medicine back then, and her illness has improved." Qiao Ran's finger landed on the table and clasped it gently, "It's not common for this kind of serious illness to get better, you should remember it." ”

The shopkeeper looked at her in silence for a moment, then suddenly got up, went to the account book shelf on the side, and after a while, took an account book from the bookshelf and handed it over.

"That year, Mrs. Qiao and Miss Qiao Er almost had an accident on the front and back feet, and after Miss Qiao Er passed away, Mrs. Qiao also became seriously ill not long after, and it didn't improve until the end of the year." The shopkeeper let out a long sigh, that year he often ran to Qiao's house, and his family was sick, and the atmosphere was really not good, so that people wanted to flee when they stepped in.

"But this improvement has only lasted for half a month," said the shopkeeper, "Old Madam Qiao still went." ”

"Old Madam Qiao, what kind of illness are they?" Qiao Ran asked him. What the shopkeeper just said coincides with what Qiao Mo said, so it can be seen that the shopkeeper did not lie about this matter, and there is no need to lie.

"I can't say why, the doctor said that it was a heart disease, and he wanted to keep it, but he was tired, angry, worried, and had something on his mind." The shopkeeper said, "The kind of disease that you want to raise." ”

People say that heart disease still needs heart medicine, and they can't even say what this heart medicine is.

After turning the page for a while, she stopped on one of the pages, pointed to the herbs of one of them and asked him, "Why is this blood ginseng circled with cinnabar?" ”

I know that this woman is not an ordinary person! The shopkeeper's heart jumped: just like the Miss Qiao back then, the character who knows more than he can fool him.

He lowered his head and was silent for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "This matter can't be said to the outside world, this is what Old Lady Qiao, Old Lady Qiao, and Miss Qiao have repeatedly told back then. ”

"I'm not an outsider, it doesn't matter if you tell me." Qiao Ran stared at him and said, "I won't say anything about this." ”

"Miss Qiao is indeed not an outsider." Although this Miss Qiao has a bad relationship with Master Qiao, who is now the head of the Qiao family, she has a very good relationship with Miss Qiao, that is, Mrs. Fang today, so thinking about it, it really doesn't hurt to talk to Miss Qiao about this matter.

The shopkeeper put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at her: "This blood ginseng is not a blood ginseng born in the ground. "There is indeed a medicinal material such as blood ginseng in the pharmacy, but the blood ginseng used by the Qiao family back then is not this medicinal material.

"What I gave was just ordinary 100-year-old ginseng." The shopkeeper said, "Later, Qiao's family took it but didn't start immediately." I just thought it was strange back then, once I went to Qiao's house to deliver medicine, and I bumped into the grandmother holding the ginseng brocade box, and the grandmother who was not paying attention fell to the ground, and the ginseng almost fell to the ground, but I caught it. Centennial ginseng is not an ordinary thing, he was in a hurry, so he reached out to take it, and then happened to see the things in the slightly open and closed brocade box.

"It's a crimson ginseng." The shopkeeper's face gradually turned pale, as if he remembered the scene at that time, "I couldn't help but ask why this ginseng was not given to Mrs. Qiao, and the grandmother said that it was taken by someone to soak it in secret medicine." ”

"That's a secret medicine!" The shopkeeper's voice involuntarily raised when he said this, "The smell of blood." There's no mistake, it's human blood! "The pharmacy also distinguishes medicines, and over time, he has developed a good nose and is very smart.

"So you suspect that this blood ginseng is a hundred-year-old ginseng soaked in blood?" Qiao Ran asked him.

The shopkeeper nodded busily: "That's human blood!" It's scary to think about, and not long after that day, Mrs. Qiao, who is about to die, has begun to prepare for the future, and her body has really improved, and I am still thinking about what blood is so powerful, and soaking in ginseng can even save people who are dying......"

A hint of discoloration flashed in Qiao Ran's eyes. Listening to the shopkeeper, he sighed again and said, "As a result, not long after, Old Madam Qiao still died. ”

"That's what happened." Qiao Ran closed the account book and put it away.

The shopkeeper looked at her with some hesitation, and stretched out his hand hesitantly: "Miss Qiao, this is not good!" ”

The girl gently buttoned the table, and spit out two words in her mouth: "Bird's nest." ”

"Forget it! It's just some old accounts. The shopkeeper coughed, withdrew his hand, and asked her again, "Is there anything else Miss Qiao would like to ask?" ”

"Yes." Qiao Ran nodded and looked at him, "What is the second miss of the Fang family?" "Look at the guy who blew the sky yesterday, I don't know how much it is true or not, this shopkeeper is more reliable when he says it.

"I can't say it," the shopkeeper sighed a few times with some difficulty, "Look at it, it's also a heart disease, Miss Qiao, you don't know!" Heart disease is the most difficult to treat, and I have seen a lot of it over the years. ”

Is it also a heart disease? Qiao Ran: This is really a coincidence.

"Can you save it?" Qiao Ran asked again.

The shopkeeper said: "Miss Qiao, I am the shopkeeper of a pharmacy, not a doctor." Heart disease still needs heart medicine, and it will be easy to cure if you find heart medicine! "I can't find it, the Fang family is also going to start preparing for the future.

It's really a coincidence, one or two, both of them suffer from heart disease. If it is said that her biological mother, Miss Qiao Er, was abandoned and became pregnant before marriage and gave birth to heart disease, Mrs. Qiao can probably explain that because of Miss Qiao Er's death, the white-haired person sent the black-haired person to have a heart disease. What about Fang Xiuting? What is her heart disease? Qiao Ran was puzzled.

Seeing that Qiao Ran didn't speak, the shopkeeper didn't dare to say much, and he couldn't urge her to go out, so he had to glance at her from time to time.

At this moment, the voice of Laifu outside sounded: "Shopkeeper, Qiao's family has come to get medicine." ”

After finishing talking about Qiao's family, a sentence of "Qiao's family" came outside, and the two people in the room were startled, but the shopkeeper was the first to react, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Qiao Ran: "It's the fetal medicine that was ordered before, Mrs. Qiao is a month pregnant, and Qiao's family is here to get the medicine." ”
