"No, how can you rent a hundred yuan. 500 wen, you can receive it properly. Xia Jin said.

"Five hundred wen? Impossible, right? "Shu really didn't dare to have such a dream. You know, the same area of shop on the street outside is only seven or eight hundred wen a month.

"It's impossible, wouldn't it be better for Dad to talk to someone?" Xia Jin said.

As she said this, she looked at Xia Zhengqian, and suddenly became uneasy: "Dad, when you go to talk about this, you should take me with you." I'm afraid that you haven't talked about business, and as soon as your heart softens, you promise to give it very cheap. You know, this loss is a few hundred dollars, enough for our family to do a lot of things. ”

"It's like she's talking about business." Shu Shi smiled, but his eyes were staring at Xia Zhengqian uneasily, "Xianggong, what Sister Jin said is true, you can't rent cheaply." ”

Xia Jin was even more worried. Xia Zhengqian's personality is a gentleman's demeanor to say that it sounds good, and it is pedantic to say that it is unpleasant. The heart is soft, the skin is thin, and whenever people say it is more difficult, he agrees, and he is definitely the type who is easy to fool.

She stiffened her little face and told seriously: "Dad, I'm afraid that you will leave me alone and go to talk to someone yourself." I'll give you a bottom now, our face, the price is 600 Wen, the minimum is 400 Wen, and if it doesn't work, it will be pulled down. There are many pharmacies, and there are always those who are willing. Don't be cheap. ”

Xia Zhengqian smiled dumbly: "Am I an adult or are you an adult?" But you commanded me! Moreover, the money for our face repair has not yet arrived, is it too early for everyone to say this? ”

"Not really." Shu Shi was worried when he thought of this. "Hurry up and borrow money. If we can't borrow money, we'll have to drink the northwest wind. ”

Xia Zhengqian's popularity is still excellent. By the end of the afternoon, he had come back drunk and red-faced. put a money bag in front of Shu Shi and said, "Na, two taels of silver, Brother Zhang borrowed it." ”

"Brother Zhang is righteous." Shu Shi took the money bag, poured out the silver taels inside and counted them, and then pinched his hands to calculate how much it would cost to live during this time, and how much it would cost to build the door and face.

After the math. She said brightly: "Okay, I'll ask someone to build the door face in the afternoon." ”

It is said to be a façade. In fact, it didn't take much effort, just took out the inverted seats for the next person to live in the spacious three rooms that were connected together, and opened the door frames and windows on the side of the alley, and installed the doors and windows. Then the doors and windows leading to the inner courtyard were sealed with brick plaster, and the three outward-facing doors became faces. One of the largest is rented out as a pharmacy, one is for Xia Zhengqian to sit in, and one is connected to the medical hall for patients to rest and wait.

And to build this face, you only need to ask one or two knowledgeable people to buy some raw materials. The rest of the workers are all their own male servants. Luo's sister-in-law's husband, Uncle Luo, was appointed as a housekeeper by Xia Zhengqian and Shu's family, and his enthusiasm was extremely high. took a few male servants to get up early and work greedily, and in less than two days, the door was cleaned up.

The newly divided family's three bedrooms still borrow money to live. More than a dozen people want to eat and drink every day, and they have to pay monthly money to their subordinates after ten days, Xia Zhengqian didn't dare to delay at all, and the next morning after borrowing the money, he went to the pharmacy to talk about cooperation, of course. I didn't bring Xia Jin with me. The reason is that Xia Jin is a girl. It is not advisable to show your head; Second, when he was talking to the owner of the pharmacy, Xia Jin intervened in the negotiation, or he withdrew and introduced Xia Jin to come forward to negotiate business with the other party, which seemed to be not respectful enough to the other party.

Fortunately, with Xia Jin's explanation and Shu's repeated advice, Xia Zhengqian also had a lot of financial pressure in his heart, and kept in mind the bottom line drawn by Xia Jin for him during the negotiation, and finally rented the gate to a pharmacy owner surnamed Qin at a price of 500 wen a month. And on the face of the door in the middle, he hung a plaque, on which were the three words written by Xia Zhengqian: Xinglin Hall.

When Boss Qin's drug shop finished laying out the medicinal materials, it happened to be an auspicious day for Xia Zhengqian, and he took the firecrackers and put them off, which was considered to be open.

In the past few days, Xia Zhengqian was not idle, but visited one or two of his old patients, told them the news of the opening of the hospital, and then the two patients spread the news. So early this morning, more than a dozen old patients waited in Xinglin Hall, and it could be regarded as a good start.

Two days ago, Shu Shi got the two-month rent prepaid by Boss Qin for 1,000 yuan, which was equivalent to one tael of silver, and repaid half of the foreign debt borrowed. On this day, Xinglin Hall opened, and a hundred dollars were credited in one morning, and she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth.

Shu Shi was overjoyed, but Xia Zhengshen was furious in Renhetang.

He originally thought that Xia Zhengqian would take care of his feelings and righteousness, and then went back to Renhetang to make money for him, and he has been waiting in Renhetang for the past few days. But I didn't want to find that one morning the group of old patients who had been waiting for Xia Zhengqian to come back were gone, and after inquiring, I learned that Xia Zhengqian had built a door in the old mansion and opened a medical hall by himself.

Immediately made him angry!

He also knows that his ability to be a big brother is small, and he doesn't have much deterrence, the last time he went to the old mansion, Xia Zhengqian didn't give him face, if he goes to the door now, it will still be like last time, and it won't play a role. At the moment, he ignored the matter of the medical hall, went home angrily, and told the old lady about the matter.

With a "dang chang", the old lady was so angry that she smashed the teacup in her hand.

The eldest lady and the second lady who were waiting on the side did not blink their eyes, and beckoned to the side, and immediately a little girl came up and picked up the broken porcelain, and the other woman took a broom and swept the floor, and it was cleaned up in a few moments.

The old lady smashed things when she was angry, and everyone had been trained.

"Where's that beast? Take me there! The old lady gritted her teeth and stood up.

"It's in the old house, I'll ask someone to prepare the car." Xia Zheng said cautiously.

Xia Zhenghao sighed on the side and persuaded: "Mother, don't go." What do you have to say, how about calling the third brother back in the evening? ”

"You don't care!" The old lady was angry and lost her face to her second son.

"But if you go now, I'm afraid there will be a patient there in the third brother. You're making a joke for others. Xia Zhenghao said.

"Someone's just right." The old lady waved her hand majestically, "When the time comes, I'll see if I look at his jokes or look at my jokes, hum!" ”

Xia Zhenghao wanted to persuade him again, but the second wife quietly pulled his placket and told him to stop talking.

The older the old lady gets, the more stubborn she becomes. I decided what to do, but no one could persuade me. Those who can't persuade well still have to eat and hang.

Seeing Xia Zhengshen hurriedly walking in, saying that the car was ready, Xia Zhenghao sighed and had to shut up.

Although the old lady is over sixty years old, her body is very tough, she is not dizzy or dizzy when she sits in the carriage, and she still maintains a high fighting spirit until she gets off in front of the old mansion, and her momentum is much stronger than Xia Zhengshen, who is following behind.

Although it was close to noon at this time, there were still five or six patients waiting in Xinglin Hall who had come from Renhe Hall, and it was not their turn to see them. At this time, seeing a carriage parked in front of the door, an old lady with gray hair broke in angrily, followed by the proprietor of Renhetang, and the patients immediately guessed the identity of the old lady. They immediately stopped talking and laughing, and looked at this side without blinking.

"Grandmother, why are you here? My father and my mother said in the morning that when they pay off their debts and have money left, they will buy things and visit you immediately. Xia Jin, who was dressed as Xia Qi, greeted him with a smile on his face, and gave the old lady a deep bow, with an extremely respectful attitude.

Official, why did you agree with Xia Zhengqian to let her daughter show up and come to the hospital to help? But it turned out that Xia Jin made a trick of cutting first and then playing.

Since Xia Zhengqian came back from prison, she has been very well-behaved, staying in this small house honestly, not going anywhere, helping Shu's housekeeper all day long, and pretending to make some needle money. This well-behaved appearance made Xia Zhengqian and Shu very satisfied, thinking that their daughter used to go to Renhetang as an apprentice, which was really due to brotherly affection, and they couldn't bear to let their brother have no time to read. Some time ago, when I went out to Luofu, I was also worried about my father, so I had to go out to find out the news. Now it's okay, just obediently stay at home and never go out again.

Both couple's nerves relaxed.

But I didn't want to, today Xia Zhengqian opened the door of Xinglin Hall, welcomed more than a dozen patients into the hospital, just sat down to see the patient, Xia Jin came in from the front door in the form of Xia Qi, and as soon as he came in, he gave the patients a look, and then rolled up his sleeves and said to Xia Zhengqian: "Dad, you go to see a doctor, I will write you a prescription." ”

At the beginning of Renhetang, Xia Jin first followed Zhao Langzhong to write a prescription for a day, and then Xia Zhengqian came back, she was sent to the pharmacy to pick up medicine for the patient, even if the patient felt that she was familiar, he did not know that she was Xia Zhengqian's "son".

At this time, hearing her call Xia Zhengqian "Dad", these old sick people immediately smiled kindly at Xia Jin, and praised Xia Zhengqian one after another: "Xia Langzhong, this is Ling Gongzi?" Sure enough, he is a talent, and he is courteous. ”

"Yes, your son is not only good-looking, but also filial! You see, when you are busy, I take the initiative to help. Unlike the son of my family, who knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and asks him to do something, his mouth is pouted, and he mutters reluctantly, and I want to slap him when I see it. ”

"In Xia Langzhong, the tiger father has no dogs. Your medical skills are excellent, and your son's medical skills must be extraordinary. Let him take over your mantle in a few years, and you will be blessed. ”

Xia Zhengqian was so depressed that he wanted to die, but he couldn't scold his daughter in front of all the parents of food and clothing, so he had to squeeze out a smile on his face and respond to the sick people: "Where is it?" Prizes have been awarded! Seeing Xia Jin pull his sleeves and come over to polish the ink and write the recipe, he had to grit his teeth and admit it, thinking about returning to the inner courtyard at noon, and then scolding him.

So this morning, Xia Jin was able to stay in Xinglin Hall, and this is why she stood in front of Xia Zhengqian and greeted the old lady.

Usually the old lady doesn't have a good face for Xia Jin, but at this time, she is here to make trouble, where will she give her a good face, her eyes are full of fierce faces, and she shouts violently: "Get out!" As he spoke, he flicked Xia Jin aside with his arm.
