Chapter 10: It's shameless
Niu Chonglian said to the people present: "Those who have money can pay as much as they should for treatment, and if they don't have it, it won't work! Ordinary people come to see a doctor, and if the money is a little short, they will also treat him." If necessary, it is not impossible to give him some relief appropriately.
When it comes to the poor, there is also a cure for the sick. I think that the lives of the poor are also their lives, so why should I not be cured? In times of crisis, as a doctor, I cannot sit idly by. That's how it is today. I took care of it. ”
Niu Chonglian turned around as he spoke, comforting the old woman and her son. Say "It doesn't matter if you can't pay it." If you have no money, you won't need to spend your whole life serving me. ”
The old woman repeatedly begged to keep them down to serve her benefactor, and said that she was willing.
Later, Niu Chonglian heard that their mother and son were people who had no way out of life. Niu Chonglian thought: When the store needs people, let them do some work to earn some money to supplement the family.
So Niu Chonglian said to them: "Old man, when you and your son are busy at my house, your mother and wife will come to work with me, and I will pay you." Okay!"
"How can we ask you for your wages? Benefactor, let me tell you the truth! I am a vagabond, and I am not in a position to repay you. "The son of the old madwoman told the truth
We are not afraid of being dirty, we are not afraid of being tired, we can do any work, we can give a few mouthfuls of food to eat, and we just have a place to live. You don't need to pay for the work, as long as you can stay, we can do it. The old woman pleaded.
Liu Er listened to what their mother and son said, and felt pity for them very much. I thought to myself: The two masters will be leaving soon, and there will be a shortage of manpower at home, and they will definitely be very busy. Thinking of this, she walked over and said to Chonglian, "Chonglian take them!"
Niu Chonglian's idea is the same as Liu'er's idea. So he said to his wife and son, "Yes, stay here, and this will be your home." ”
The people present saw this scene and applauded the behavior of Niu Chonglian and his wife. Everyone praised the two of them as the best and best good people in the world!
Afterwards, the people spread the word about it.
Since then, the Langzhong Niu of "Sheng'an Hall" has become famous. Niu Chonglian's medical skills and medical ethics have been praised by the people within a radius of hundreds of miles. There is a steady stream of people coming to see the doctor.
Langzhong Wang Jiashan's "Good People Hall" is not close to Niu Chonglian's home. Supposedly, it won't affect him much. Since the opening of Niu Chonglian's "Sheng'an Hall", they have begun to be cold there.
This person's medical skills are lower than Niu Chonglian's, but this is not the main reason why patients are reluctant to go to him for treatment, the main reason is that this person's character is too poor.
Especially the last time he played the set of smashing signs, he lifted a stone and hit his own feet, which made people sneer at him even more. Wang Jiashan inadvertently helped Niu Chonglian and made positive publicity for Niu Chonglian, which he regretted a lot.
Since Niu Chonglian disappeared and Liu Er went out to look for him, he has never returned home. As a result, the She family was depressed. At the beginning, in addition to being depressed, the She family also had memories, recalling the laughter and laughter when Liu Er was at home.
Slowly, everyone hated Niu Chongtian and blamed him for causing trouble. After a long time, depression, memories, and resentment added to the thoughts, and the whole family missed Liu'er, and dreamed of her during the day and at night.
Later, everyone also complained about the master, complaining that he was too thoughtful, and even the master himself felt that he had done something too much, but he did not regret his actions.
One day after a long time, it was She Dayang who brought a message to the She family, saying that Niu Chonglian had set up a medicine hall in the county town and became Langzhong. I heard that the reputation is very good, and people call him a miracle doctor.
Master She is not ignorant of this matter, but he just doesn't want to face his failure. He also wanted to see his daughter. What did he say when he saw his daughter? When he said that his daughter was wrong, the father and daughter had to quarrel again.
It's really reluctant to admit that I was wrong. Master She had no shame to see his daughter, so he could only urge his wife to go to the county seat to have a look. Madame was overjoyed when she heard the news. She immediately asked her son to accompany her to the county seat.
Since it opened, business has been very good. Although Niu Chonglian was very busy, everything was arranged in an orderly manner.
Light patients come to acupuncture or massage or take ready-made medicines, and the work is done easily. Slightly heavier patients are prescribed a prescription and asked the patient to grab the side herbs and go back to treat them slowly.
The patients came in pain and distress, and they all went satisfied. It didn't take much effort to deal with more than a dozen patients.
At this time, a young man helped an old woman into the medicine hall. The old woman sat opposite Niu Chonglian, staring at Niu Chonglian with her eyes. She seemed to be wondering what was this?
It turned out that she was thinking in her heart: This kid has been herding cattle since he was a child, how can he cure diseases? Is it that her daughter has used some magic for him to help him heal people's diseases?
Niu Chonglian gave the old woman a pulse, and the pulse was finished after a while.
Niu Chonglian said to her: "Old man, you are very healthy and have no diseases! It seems that you are not in a good mood, do you have something on your mind?"
"Yes, I have a daughter who has run away from home, and she makes me so sad!"
"You miss your daughter, you feel uncomfortable, don't you? I'll prescribe medicine for you. When you eat it, your breath will be smooth, and your heart will be refreshed. ”
Niu Chonglian prescribed the prescription and handed it to the old woman's son, asking them to go to the medicine cabinet to grab the medicine.
As soon as Mrs. She and her son turned to the direction of the medicine counter, they saw Liu Er from a distance.
Liu Er also saw her mother and brother, and she exclaimed. Madame made a silent gesture.
Liu Er lowered her voice and said, "Mother, brother, why are you here?"
"Dead girl, my mother thinks that you are about to die!"
Liu Er asked, "Why didn't Chonglian recognize you?"
"It's a piece of cake, look!" Da Yang said with another face.
"Brother, we are human. I don't like to use sorcery. Liu Er objected to her brother's approach.
"It's not like you're forcing it, it's a last resort!"
Liu Er called Feng Shanzi, the son of the crazy woman, and asked him to replace him for a while. She was going to talk to her mother and brother in the back hall.
When they entered the back hall, Liu Er told her mother, "I am married to Chonglian, and I dare not invite you to the wedding for fear that you and my father will object." Mother, you won't be angry, will you!"
"Your father and I have already estimated it. It's up to fate!"
Liu Er wanted to tell Niu Chonglian about their coming. The old lady said, "We are here to find out the truth this time, or wait for me to go back and listen to your father's meaning!"
When Liu Er heard this, she was very unhappy and sad, and tears of sadness almost flowed out of her eyes.
When she was leaving, the old lady said, "You can't use your magic to help Niu Chonglian heal others! ”
"Mother, what do you say! Cure the disease depends on people's ability to reconnect with themselves. Liu Er comforted her mother and said.
After sending her mother and brother away, a few days later, Liu Er asked Chonglian to go home to see her parents. Niu Chonglian agreed, and proposed that the two of them go home together to visit Liu'er's parents. Obtain the approval of the lord and wife of the She family for their marriage.
Wang Jiashan, the richest man in the county, and Luo Kaisheng, the county magistrate, have a close relationship. They used their power and money to do a lot of bad things. The last time Wang Jiashan smashed the cow and reconnected the medicine hall, it was the county master who acquiesced.
Recently, Wang Jiashan has been racking his brains to take revenge for the last failure!
On this day, Wang Jiashan asked Luo Kaisheng to drink in order to provoke a new incident again, and he was invited.
During the drinking, Wang Jiashan said: "Langzhong Niu Chonglian's medical skills are indeed very high. It took him less than half an hour to cure the old madwoman, and what is even more interesting is that he didn't need any money to cure the disease.
I really can't figure it out, it's incomprehensible, it's incomprehensible!" Wang Jiashan shook his head as he drank.
Luo Kaisheng listened to Wang Jiashan's words, smiled slightly and thought: That's a tactic against you, stupid. It seems that you will never be able to understand.
"You haven't forgotten that you lifted a stone and hit yourself in the foot, have you?" Luo Kaisheng took a sip of wine and mocked Wang Jiashan.
Wang Jiashan continued indifferently: "People said that if you don't have money, you can also treat the disease first and pay later. Fuck this day, I haven't seen a second stupid bastard like this!"
"You're not right, he's not stupid! People want popularity, and only with popularity can they make money. Do you understand?" Luo Kaisheng objected.
Wang Jiashan changed the topic and pretended to care about Luo Kaisheng's father, and asked, "The old lady's eye disease in the house is now expected to be cured." ”
Luo Kaisheng took it and said, "You mean, let the Cowherd come to treat my father's eyes? My father's eyes are too sick." I've thought about it, don't tell him, it's okay for him to try. Then let him take care of it!"
In the afternoon of the same day, Luo Kaisheng sent someone to ask Niu Chonglian to go to the county office.
Niu Chonglian had already heard of Luo Kaisheng's character, so he excused himself and said, "I'm too busy to go out." ”
The messenger had to go back.
The next day, Luo Kaisheng sent a sedan chair to carry the cattle to reconnect. Niu Chonglian had to go to the county master's house to see the patient. When I arrived in Luofu, I learned that the patient was an old man. The old man has been blind in both eyes for many years. I have asked many Lang Zhong to come, but all the healing has been ineffective.
After Niu Chonglian opened the patient's eyes and looked at it, he avoided the patient and said to Luo Kaisheng: "This disease is caused by fire attacking the eyes, and because the treatment is not timely and illegal, the condition continues to worsen, and now it has reached the point where it is incurable. ”
Luo Kaisheng said: "If it is not difficult to treat, I will not look for you! As long as you can be cured, I will give you any amount of money." ”
Hearing this, Niu Chonglian felt familiar. Fortunately, he was able to cure himself, so he said, "Get a hundred taels of silver."
"Ahem, I already knew that you were good at blackmailing, and it was true. Luo Kaisheng said very politely.
"The county lord is wrong with this, you will pay for my treatment, this is a matter of course, and it can't be blackmailed. I used a secret recipe to make a miracle medicine, and the production process is very complicated, and it took nearly a year to make it, so is it not expensive? Your old father is really lucky to have encountered this miracle medicine!"
"Speaking of my father's illness, the treatment time will be very long. Let's be fair, you cured an old crazy woman in half an hour, why did it take so long to treat my father, I don't know if you can cure it.
In this way, the old madwoman will use fifty taels to heal the sick. I'll give you fifty taels too, but the treatment time for this disease is too long, so the price should be halved by twenty-five taels is enough, so it's settled!"
Niu Chonglian knew that he had no reason to talk to him, so he said: "It takes time to treat the disease, and it is Lang Zhong who is hard, and it will be halved even if you don't add money, which is too unreasonable." I don't care about you, you say twenty-five taels will be twenty-five taels!"
Luo Kaisheng took it and said, "However, if you can't be cured when the time comes, you will not only miss the appointment and lose your trust, but you will have to pay me twenty-five taels of silver." ”
Niu Chong even heard this, and his lungs were about to explode. He endured it and said, "Really, why is there such a big gap between these people! The old crazy woman is cured, and the people are poor and have no money, and I don't ask for his money, but they are willing to serve me for the rest of their lives."
However, some people are not short of money, and if they have money for treatment, they will not give money, and they will have to pay another sum of money. Is it so difficult that there is no reason in the world?"
"Don't say that, just make a statement. Luo Kaisheng instructed his subordinates to bring the pen, ink, paper and inkstone that had been prepared long ago, and after writing, he persuaded Niu Chonglian to sign and delineate.
When Niu Chonglian was leaving, he said, "When you yourself are seriously ill, I think you can still be so arrogant?"
Luo Kaisheng was taken aback when he heard what Niu Chonglian said. He pondered for a while and felt that something was wrong. So, he made such a decision, giving up Wang Jiashan, a useless friend, and befriending a miracle doctor may be able to remedy the relationship with others.
