Chapter 392: How Old Are You?
Okay, excuse me. Sun Xiu sat down on the bed and handed over his right hand.
After Bai Jinli helped her take her pulse, she asked her about her recent situation, and checked the fetal position with gynecological examination techniques, and then spoke.
"Mrs. Meng, to be honest, it doesn't seem that your baby is easy to give birth."
"Well, I know. That's what the previous doctors said. But that's okay, I'm not going to give up. ”
Sun Xiu nodded, not surprised by the results of this examination.
When she said this, her face was tender, she looked down at her belly, and her right hand gently stroked it.
"I suggest that you can move around more, so that the birth can be easier, which is good for you and the baby."
"Okay, Hong'er, help me up and walk."
Hearing Bai Jinli say this, Sun Xiu called the big girl beside her, stood up and walked out with her support.
"Doctor Bai, it's hard for you to go. If you can, I hope you can be by my side when I give birth. ”
"Looking at the conditions of Madame's family, there should be a lot of doctors waiting on the side." Bai Jinli said bluntly.
From the time she walked into the Meng Mansion, she found that there were a lot of maids and maids in the entire Meng Mansion.
Especially in Sun Xiu's yard, there are many maids and wives.
"Well, that's true. But the doctors are all men, and I would prefer a female doctor to be next to me. Sun Xiu opened his mouth to explain.
In fact, she told Meng Ziyi about this matter before, and she didn't want to be surrounded by male doctors when she gave birth.
Meng Ziyi also comforted her and said that when the time came, he would find a way to go to the palace to help her invite a female medical officer back.
On weekdays, if some nobles and ladies in the palace are sick and it is not convenient, they will ask the female medical officer to go over and check.
But in general, the strength of female medical officers is not as good as those imperial doctors.
And the female medical officer in the palace is not easy to invite.
Bai Jinli is a female doctor, and she heard her father boast about Bai Jinli's medical skills, so when Bai Jinli finished checking her pulse, she suddenly had this thought.
Seeing that Bai Jinli didn't reply to her, Sun Xiu continued to speak.
"I can give you enough money to pay for the consultation, and I can also agree to your request, as long as it is not too much."
"yes, okay." Bai Jinli looked at the pleading on her face and nodded in response.
"Great." Sun Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and asked the maid to take fifty taels of consultation money for Bai Jinli.
Bai Jinli took it and put it away, and after a few simple words with the maid beside Sun Xiu, she walked out of her room.
"How is it, Doctor Bai, how is my Xiu'er?" The old grandson saw her come out and hurriedly asked.
"As you said, it's not very good. The due date should be these few days, and I have just explained the precautions to her personal maid. ”
"Well, that's good. If you're not busy, you can move to the living room and sit down, and I'll have someone prepare tea for you. ”
"No need, Grandpa Sun, I want to take my mother out for a walk, and I'm done going to the pharmacy."
"Alright, I'll send you out." The old grandson didn't force it, and opened his mouth and ordered someone to send them.
Anyway, this is his son-in-law's house after all, and he only came to see it because his daughter was about to give birth.
Not long after walking out of Sun Xiu's courtyard, a woman with bright clothes and makeup walked up.
"Who are they?" Seeing Bai Jinli and Mrs. Li, the woman asked.
"Second lady Hui, this is the doctor invited by the eldest lady, and the younger one is planning to send the doctor away."
"Female doctor? Hehe, I think the eldest lady is really crazy. What do you know about being so young? The woman did not shy away from covering her mouth with a veil and smiling, her face full of disdain.
"Shut up! My daughter's medical skills are naturally the best, how old are you, what qualifications do you have to speak ill of my daughter. ”
As soon as she heard someone say bad things about Bai Jinli, Mrs. Li immediately glared at her.
"The best? This is the capital, and the best medical person is in the Imperial Palace. In addition to the imperial doctors in the palace, the best doctors in the capital are now in the other courtyards of our palace, just her? I dared to call myself the best in medicine, and I laughed to death. ”
"Then you just laugh to death, ignorant and stupid." Mrs. Li snorted coldly.
"Shut up, what are you? Dare you talk to me like that! Come on, drag her down for me. ”
As soon as the woman's scolding words were finished, she saw Bai Jinli speak with a cold face.
"Anyway, my mother and I are both distinguished guests invited by your house, what is your attitude? Could this be Meng Shilang's tutoring and hospitality? ”
"Distinguished guests? As a liar like you, if the master comes back, he will definitely let people kick you out. You still don't do it? The woman commanded in a cold voice.
Hearing this, Bai Jinli's face became even colder, and after giving Xiangming beside her a look, she saw Xiangming approaching the second lady with the momentum of stealing the bell and pinching her neck.
Bai Jinli took out a pill from her sleeve and stuffed it into her mouth, and then spoke lightly.
"Since it's not nice to speak, then don't speak at all, the province won't wait to recruit people."
Seeing that she refused to swallow, Xiangming directly pinched her chin, and then threw her aside.
"Hmm...... Hmmm! The woman fell to the ground in embarrassment, whimpering and pinching her throat with her hands, her face full of horror.
She, she couldn't make a sound.
What's going on?
"Second lady, how are you?"
"Second lady!"
Seeing that all the subordinates were surrounding her, Bai Jinli took Mrs. Li's arm and continued to walk outside with the fragrant tea.
During this period, there were still little servants who wanted to come over to stop them, but they were stopped by the person sent by the old grandson to lead the way.
Out of the gate of the Meng Mansion, Mrs. Li couldn't help but speak: "This Meng Mansion is really bad, I obviously invited you to come over to help them see a doctor, but now it looks like this, it's really not a thing." ”
"Mother, this is the consequence of a man marrying too many women, there are too many women in the family, and he is jealous." Bai Jinli wasn't too angry.
She hasn't seen anything before, and she really hasn't paid attention to this little thing.
I can see it openly and secretly, the second lady just now is not dealing with Sun Xiu, I heard that she just came out of Sun Xiu's courtyard, and she is not happy to find her.
It's just that she is the kind of soft persimmon that can be manipulated by others?
I happened to have a fragrant tea next to me today, which is really powerful.
"If you want me to say, the men in this house are too wasteful. What are these things to marry? If I had such a daughter-in-law, I would have beaten her to death at home. ”
"Okay, mother, don't be angry with those unimportant strangers, let's go, I'll take you around the capital."
"yes, okay."
Bai Jinli took Mrs. Li to walk around the bustling streets of the capital.
The capital is worthy of being the cultural and economic center of the Great Qi Kingdom, and it looks really much more prosperous than other towns.
Whether it is the clothes of the people walking on the street, or the decoration of the shops on both sides of the road, they all have a different luxurious atmosphere.
Of course, prices in the capital are also much higher than in other places.
Just the sugar gourds sold on the roadside, Qinglin County has two cents a string, and the capital has five cents.
After hearing the price of those things, Mrs. Li suddenly felt distressed and was reluctant to spend money.
When Bai Jinli took out the fifty taels of consultation money she had just gotten, Mrs. Li was still a little unbearable.
Then, Bai Jinli took out another money bag and told Mrs. Li that it was specially given to her by Lin Shenyuan and asked her to use it to go shopping and buy things.
Anyway, the son-in-law can make money, since this is given by the son-in-law, it can be regarded as a piece of filial piety for him, and he feels sorry for his son-in-law if he doesn't spend it.
After shopping around, Bai Jinli and Mrs. Li were a little tired from walking, so they found a restaurant to eat.
After eating, she proposed to go to the pharmacy in Beiping Alley.
Seeing that Mrs. Li was tired of shopping, and because it was time to take a nap, she couldn't open her eyes, so Bai Jinli called for a fire and asked him to send Mrs. Li home first.
Knowing that Bai Jinli still had something to do, Mrs. Li told her a little, and then went back first under the escort of the fire.
The pharmacy looks really magnanimous, with a large wall of traditional Chinese medicine cabinets inside, and it is decorated with a very classical medical atmosphere.
There was really a doctor sitting inside, but compared to the person who grabbed the medicine, he seemed a little idle.
Seeing Bai Jinli standing at the door and looking inside, someone soon came over to speak.
"Girl, if you want to grab medicine, please line up here. If you want to see a doctor, go directly to Dr. Chen. ”
"I'm looking for Qiao Liang."
"What do you have to do with our shopkeeper Qiao?" After the man heard Bai Jinli's words, he immediately opened his mouth to ask her.
"Well, if there is something, please go and report it, and say that Imperial Doctor Guo recommended me to come."
"Okay, girl, wait a minute." The little guy turned around and ran in to report it.
It didn't take long to see a middle-aged man with a mustache walk out.
"Presumably this is Miss Jin, right? I've heard Furong mention you, quick, please inside. ”
"Hmm."
Bai Jinli only knew at this moment that the original name of Imperial Physician Guo was Guo (Furong) Furong.
Tsk, that's a good name.
"Miss Jin, drink tea."
"Thank you."
"I heard Fu Rong say that Miss Jin made something called mark removal cream that is very useful, I wonder if Miss Jin came this time to buy medicine, or for mark removal cream?"
"It's both. Shopkeeper Joe, do you want to take a look at things first? ”
"No need. I trust my nephew's vision. Since he said that Miss Jin's mark removal cream is good, it must not be ordinary. I wonder how Miss Jin wants to cooperate with us? Qiao Liang shook his head and asked directly.
"A can of thirty taels, I will have some goods delivered every once in a while."
"Thirty taels?" Qiao Liang was slightly surprised.
Their pharmacy also has medicine for burns, but the price is not even half of this.
"The scar removal cream can make the scar on the injured area completely disappear, leaving no trace, just by virtue of this, does the shopkeeper think that my scar removal cream is worth thirty taels of silver?"
"Really?" Qiao Liang opened his mouth in disbelief.
When he received his nephew's letter, he was very interested in this scar removal cream, and he had been looking forward to the door of the brocade girl in his nephew's mouth.
Now that I'm finally waiting for Miss Jin, I feel that she is blowing the demarcation cream a little too much.
The nephew only said that the mark remover was really good, and he had witnessed the miraculous and fast effect of the medicine, and did not mention that it could completely remove the marks.
