The Qian family in Chong'an County.

Qian Junbao, the youngest son of the Qian family, was cold at night because it rained the day before yesterday, and suddenly became seriously ill again.

Qian Liu asked his eldest daughter-in-law, Xiao Xu, to help her and come to Qian Junbao's Qingzhu Courtyard to see him.

The old housekeeper had already invited the most famous doctor Lin in Chong'an County to come over, and Qian Liu was a little blamed for his nosy.

Just because Qian Junbao is not her own child, this Qian Liu family is very unwilling to see this wild seed that Master Qian brought back from outside.

She naturally didn't want to invite him to any famous doctor, but Master Qian usually doted on this little son very much.

Qian Junbao's status in the Qian family is still quite high, so the old housekeeper still invited Dr. Lin over as usual.

As soon as Dr. Lin came in, he put down the medicine box and immediately sat on the edge of Qian Junbao's bed, and saw that his face was blue, his skin was dull, and his lips were also purple.

He frowned deeply, it seems that Qian Junbao's illness this time is really not light!

Doctor Lin carefully checked Qian Junbao's pulse, shaking his head from time to time, his face was heavy.

Seeing that Dr. Lin's face was changing, Qian Liu was the first to ask, "Dr. Lin, how is it?" ”

Doctor Lin withdrew his hand from Qian Junbao's pulse, and after glancing at Qian Junbao, he frowned and said to Qian Liu: "Old lady, I won't tell you, Young Master Bao's illness has worsened, and it is very troublesome to let him recover, I'm afraid it's just ......."

"Dr. Lin, do you mean that his illness can't be cured?"

Xiao Xu also interjected and asked, "It's really not curable?" ”

"That's not what I mean, it's just ...... The old man should prescribe medicine first. ”

After Dr. Lin finished speaking, he opened his medicine box, took out paper and pen from it and began to write the prescription.

While writing the prescription, he slowly said to Qian Liu: "Young Master Bao's illness is a stubborn disease, but if he takes the medicine on time on weekdays, no matter how much he pays attention, he can live like an ordinary person."

It's just that this time his illness suddenly worsened a lot, and if you want to save his life, you have to take another medicine, but this medicine is very precious and difficult to get......"

Doctor Lin's hand moved quickly, and while he was speaking, he had already finished writing the prescription and handed it to Qian Liu, "I have already written the prescription, this medicine is not available in Jianzhou, and you must go to the Wantong Pharmacy in the capital to buy it." ”

Xiao Xu stretched out his hand to take the prescription and asked in surprise, "What kind of medicine can't even be bought in our Jianzhou territory?"

Doctor Lin said in a deep voice: "This prescription needs to have a very precious medicinal material to make a medicine to be effective, Jianzhou can't buy it, and this flavor medicine needs five thousand taels of silver." ”

"What, five thousand taels?!" As soon as Xiao Xu heard Dr. Lin's words, he cried out at that time, "What kind of medicine is so expensive?" Isn't this a money grab? ”

Five thousand taels!

That's not a small amount.

It's too expensive! What medicine is so expensive? Longevity?

Doctor Lin bent down slightly, arched his hand and said, "Old lady, if you don't use heavy medicine, I'm afraid that Young Master Bao won't live for ten days." ”

"That's nonsense! Doctor Lin, I think you are a quack, just write a prescription and let us go to the capital to get medicine? Why don't you let us take him to the capital to see a doctor?" Qian Liu snorted.

"Yes, don't be alarmist, what does it mean that he won't live for ten days without such an expensive medicine primer, it is obvious that you discussed it with Wantong Pharmacy and wanted to cheat us out of our money."

"The old man has been practicing medicine for 40 years, and he is true to the truth, believe it or not, this medicine is very rare and has a high price. If you don't use this medicine, please ask another master, and the old man will leave! ”
