Chapter 133: The Healer's Benevolence

Hearing this, Zhilan was a little stunned at first, and then couldn't help but laugh out loud, and said: "You are worthy of being a person who practices martial arts, your method is really direct enough......

Huaxin said again: "Miss, the slave always thinks that there is something wrong with this woman. If she wants to stay in the Lin family like this, she must have other plans, maybe it's the trick of the Liu family. Or...... The slave maid immediately investigates this matter? ”

Zhilan put down the book and said, "No need, you better send her away immediately." Huaxin didn't know about it, but she knew it very well in her heart.

"Oh." For Miss's categorical attitude, although Huaxin was a little puzzled, she didn't ask anything more, only said: "But she insists on not leaving......"

"Don't worry about that." I saw Zhilan take out a bottle of medicine from her waist and say to Huaxin: "The soul is scattered, will you use it?" I've made some improvements and this one is longer. ”

Huaxin took the medicine and smiled, and said, "Miss's method is more convenient." With that, he was leaving.

"Wait......" Zhilan suddenly stopped her again and said, "Let her change into coarse cloth clothes when she leaves, and give her a few daggers to use for self-defense." Also, don't let the young grandmother know about this. ”

Huaxin was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Yes, the slave will do it immediately." ”

After the painting was gone, Zhilan picked up the book and sat back on the chair to look at it again, but her thoughts were already a little confused and she couldn't read it anymore.

After the thrush came back from Liu's house, he mentioned to himself that Xiao'e had always been obsessed with Guanyun. Even if she doesn't say this, Zhilan understands it in her heart. On the boat that year, almost everywhere my brother went, Xiao'e's eyes followed. I saw all that girlish feelings. However, this is not the main reason why he wants to send her away.

She is not the only woman who has affection for her brother. This kind of thing is not new to the Lin family, and the brother and sister-in-law also have their own solutions, so there is no need for her to worry about it too much.

Zhilan did this, in fact, because she felt some sympathy and guilt for that Xiao'e in her heart. When I first met her in an inn in Texas that year, she was still a taciturn girl, with a stubborn and sensitive expression. Zhilan still remembers the time when their mother and daughter were kicked out of the inn, and she looked back at her with such deep longing and envy. Yes, she is envious of herself. At that time, Xiao'e was still a girl with dreams, and life was still new and unknown to her. Although she has a philistine mother and a widowed father, it will not stop her from yearning for the future. But everything that happened later must have completely turned her life upside down. Her mother was killed, she was taken captive to the capital, where she became a concubine of a half-old man, then her house was raided, and then she was sold and reduced to slavery......

Maybe all this is Xiao'e's fate. But for some reason, when Zhilan saw her, she was a little sad. If they hadn't gotten on the Lin family's ship back then, they wouldn't have been targeted by the people sent by Liu Muzhi, and there would have been nothing that happened later. Of course, there are countless possibilities in life, and no one can say. Xiao'e's encounter naturally cannot be said to be caused by the Lin family, but it has more or less a little to do with it. Zhilan thought that maybe this was the reason why she was a little sad when she saw her.

When I saw Xiao'e looking back at the lotus garden, the clear eyes of the girl were completely gone, replaced by the resentful eyes of a woman who had gone through ups and downs. Zhilan didn't know if that glance was looking at her, or at Qi Xuan, or perhaps, both. In short, such a person must not stay in the house.

Zhilan felt that she had done what she had to do for Xiao'e, and she had also released the inexplicable feelings in her heart. As for what will happen to that Xiao'e next, it depends on her own creation, and it has nothing to do with her Lin family from now on.

Two days later, Zhilan went to the Blue Grass Hall again. This is not the same when the consultation fee is reduced, and her first patient came to the door early in the morning.

Under the guidance of Huaxin, I saw a thin old woman walking into the consultation room with trembling feet. The green cloth placket she wore looked like it had been worn for many years, with layers of patches on it.

Zhilan saw a patient coming in, and hurriedly got up to greet her. But the woman didn't look at her, but just craned her neck and looked around the room, looking anxious, and muttering, "What about the doctor?" ”

Huaxin pointed to Zhilan and said, "This is Dr. Lin." ”

The woman glanced at Zhilan at this time, as if she was startled, and pointed at her with the withered branch and exclaimed, "Just her? Didn't you fool my wife? ”

Zhilan smiled: "Old lady, don't worry, I am indeed a doctor." ”

Huaxin also said: "Don't look at Dr. Lin's young age, she is the apprentice of Master Miaozhen, and her medical skills are also first-class." ”

The woman didn't believe it, but she pouted and looked Zhilan up and down with her shrewd little eyes and said, "I said why is this consultation fee so low, there is really no white pie in the sky!" Then he went out, and as he went, he said, "I'd rather spend more money and find a real doctor." ”

Seeing that the first patient who had finally been attracted was about to fly, Zhilan hurriedly said behind her: "That's it, I won't take a penny." You just let me take a look, and if you don't think my diagnosis is credible, you can ask somewhere else. ”

These words seemed to make the mother-in-law's heart a little moved, and she stopped when she walked to the door, turned her head and stared at Zhilan tightly to confirm: "Don't take a penny?" ”

"Don't take a penny." Zhilan nodded hurriedly. In order to be able to hold the first customer, she always had to sacrifice a little.

"Good!" The woman slapped her thigh and said, as if she had made up her mind, "Then I'll trust you for the time being." Let's go. ”

Zhilan was a little dazed when she heard this, and asked, "Let's go?" Where to? ”

The mother-in-law replied, "Go to my house." It's not my wife who sees a doctor, it's my daughter-in-law who has been lying in bed for two or three days! ”

"This ......" Zhilan suddenly made a difficulty, and then asked, "Old lady, where do you live?" ”

The mother-in-law stretched out her hand and pointed out, "It's at the westernmost end of this alley, but it's only a few steps away." Doctor, you have to talk! ”

Zhilan sighed slightly and said, "Okay, you wait, I'll take the medicine box and go." ”

"Miss!" The painting wanted to open his mouth to stop it, but Zhilan glared at him and stopped talking.

As the woman said, they walked through the long alleys and arrived at the patient's house without far. Looking at the thatched thatched cottage, Zhilan couldn't help but sigh. Because she was born in a big family, she has lived a life of fine clothes and food for more than ten years, and she has almost forgotten how the poor live their lives.

"Doctor, come in." The woman's attitude changed quickly, and she still had an expression of disbelief, but at this time, she called a doctor smoothly.

"Oh." Zhilan hurriedly answered and followed the woman into the house.

The light in the room was very dim, and it took Zhilan's eyes a while to get used to it before she could see clearly. I saw a person lying on the bed, several layers of quilts were tightly wrapped in the hot day, and he was still shivering inside.

"Chunsheng—the doctor is here!" The mother-in-law said to the man in the quilt.

Zhilan and Huaxin suddenly looked at each other suspiciously. Chunsheng? What is the woman's name?

I heard the man tremble and say, "Where did you borrow the money to see a doctor?" The voice was clearly a man.

I saw that the woman said to Zhilan with an embarrassed face: "I'm sorry, girl, I can't help it, I have no choice but to make this decision, a radius of a few miles, it is your cheapest consultation fee." ”

Huaxin pulled Zhilan and said, "Miss, let's go, this is not the place you should come." ”

When the woman heard this, she was anxious, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop her and said, "Don't...... Don't go! I'm just this one son......"

The painting said angrily: "The rule of our Lancaotang is not to look at men, you are deliberately cheating!" ”

"Forget it, since you're here, let's give him a prescription, it's pitiful." Zhilan didn't think much of the so-called rule of "looking at women and not men", originally for patients, it should be equal to the rich and poor, men and women, young and old, she just agreed to set this rule because of the affection of her parents and Zhan Shaofeng.

The woman was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly moved a stool over for Zhilan to sit down, and said: "I know that you are a kind-hearted person, it seems that the two days are ......worth waiting for" Huaxin immediately understood, and glared at her again. It turned out that she was just trying to take advantage of Joe like that at that time.

The mother-in-law knew that she had missed her mouth, so she quickly changed the topic and said, "Hurry up and see, what's wrong with my son, it's hot for a while, and shivering for a while......"

"It's a pendulum, everyone knows it!" Drawing Heart said.

"Yes, yes...... Don't you want to know how to cure it......" said the woman with a sneer.

In fact, as soon as Zhilan came in, she also saw that it was malaria, but in order to confirm, she still took the pulse seriously and asked about some more information. The patient was indeed suffering from malaria, but he had no money for treatment, so he delayed it for a few days.

Zhilan opened the medicine box and looked at it, it was either an antidote or an extremely precious life-saving medicine, but there was a shortage of medicinal materials for treating common diseases. She secretly sighed that she was still far from being a qualified doctor.

So Zhilan borrowed a pen and paper to write down the prescription, handed it to the mother-in-law and said, "Old lady, the medicine I brought today is not the right one. You can take this recipe to the store and grab the medicine, and they will tell you how to decoction it. As we said before, we don't take a penny. ”

The woman was still calculating in her heart how to waive the medicine money, but she didn't want this girl to be so happy, so she was stunned.

"Miss, let's go." Drawing Heart urged. If the young master knew about this, he might not be able to settle accounts with himself.

Zhilan was about to get up, but the woman grabbed her hands, only to hear her sigh: "You are really a bodhisattva!" ”

Zhilan made her a little embarrassed, waved her hand again and again, and said, "You have a good reputation!" But when I saw that the woman was already in tears, my heart suddenly became hot.

This time, it's the right place.
