Chapter 335: Ebony Beads
The man stretched out his hand to grab the middle-aged doctor, forcing him to take a few steps back, and he was in a hurry, not knowing what to do.
Xing Yi, who was standing next to him, shrugged his shoulders, laughed a few times, and when the man turned his face to glare at him, he pointed to the prescription in his hand and said, "Don't make trouble, it's you who are wrong." ”
"Am I wrong? Who are you? What do you do, do you really want to be nosy? ”
Xing Yi nodded solemnly.
"What's up? You think I'm trying to blackmail them here? Do you know who I am, it scares you when I say it. ”
Xing Yi pointed to the prescription in his hand: "Your prescription shouldn't be issued here." ”
"Not here? Am I crazy? Am I idle? ”
The middle-aged doctor also realized something, turned around and took a blank prescription, and handed it to the man: "Take out your prescription and compare it?" ”
He took out his prescription, compared it with the Chinese medicine hall, and immediately wilted, his face was purple and swollen, no one looked at it, turned around and went out, raised his head to look at the signboard in the hallway, turned around and walked away hurriedly.
The middle-aged doctor came to his senses and said to Xing Yi: "Thank you so much, how can you see clearly at a glance that it is not our prescription here?" ”
"I also saw it by accident."
"You didn't mean it, but I didn't find it when I got it in my hand, eh, my eyesight is too bad."
Tao Yundao, who had been silent, spoke: "It's not a question of good eyesight, it's a psychological problem, a mentally healthy person can see everything clearly." ”
The TCM practitioner realized something, and hurriedly said, "I'm really sorry, I was unreasonable just now, I will immediately take out all the stubs and let you rummage through them." ”
At this time, the old Chinese medicine doctor happened to come in, and the middle-aged doctor told him what had just happened. The old Chinese medicine doctor nodded approvingly: "Well, thank you." ”
Xing Yi said: "No thanks, it's just that we have to trouble the old gentleman." ”
The old gentleman said, "Don't be afraid of trouble." But I dare to ask, is it useful for you to find the stubs of the recipe? ”
Tao Yundao said: "It's still very useful, I just took the medicine of your prescription at that time, and I recovered so well." I haven't had a seizure for several years, but I'm still worried, so I want to find it, and if I have another seizure in the future, I will take medicine as soon as possible. ”
"This doesn't actually need to be like this, if you feel uncomfortable, just come to me at any time, and I will prescribe a prescription according to the specific situation."
"As the old saying goes, medicine doctors are destined for people, and I think that recipe is very suitable for me. Or ask the old gentleman to find it out and write me a copy of it. ”
Xing Yi said: "This is also his psychological effect, and I am afraid it will be difficult to check it out." ”
The old Chinese medicine doctor said: "It's not too difficult, as long as you remember the years and months when you came to see a doctor and prescribed prescriptions, we are bound into a book by month, and it is not difficult to find." ”
"Aha, it's hard to remember, according to the time when I came to see the old gentleman to see a doctor and prescribe a prescription, I remember it very clearly."
According to the years he said, the middle-aged doctor quickly took out a stack of stubs, and the old Chinese medicine doctor took it and rummaged through it himself, and it took about ten minutes to find one, take a closer look, take off his glasses, and ask: "Your name is Tao Yundao, right?" ”
"Yes, old man, I am Tao Yundao, after so many years, do you still remember?"
The old Chinese medicine doctor pointed at the stub with his glasses: "It's not that I have a bad memory, it's that there is a record on this stub." ”
Xing Yi and Tao Yundao both looked down, and there was a row of small characters on the corner of the stub with Tao Yundao's name written on it: a five-yuan sheet with a house number on it, which was taken away by this patient.
Tao Yundao hurriedly asked, "What does this mean?" Does this patient mean me? ”
The old Chinese medicine doctor touched his forehead and said slowly: "Yes, I will prescribe a prescription for you to grab the medicine, collect your money, you take a big ticket, when you give change, this change ticket will be given to you easily, that's what it means." ”
Xing Yi asked: "May I ask the old man, what is the meaning of writing the house number on that renminbi?" ”
"Meaning, it's nothing," the old Chinese medicine doctor thought about it with a frown, "it's ...... Hey, I said, you two came to find the stub, and asked me to transcribe a copy for later use, and when you saw the words written on the stub, what kind of whimsy did you have...... I'll just ask you, it's been so long, is the change I found for you still there? ”
Xing Yi said: "Don't hide it from the old gentleman, that change is no longer there." At that time, I took it out and saw that there were words on it, I wondered if there would be any information, whether the owner would be anxious because of the loss, so I hurried back to the mutton restaurant, which is the steep slope, which is no longer there, and moved away, at that time I and Tao Yundao did not know each other, he couldn't eat a bowl, I shared it with him, no matter what, I wanted to give me half a bowl of money, that is, a five-yuan ticket, I also took it, went home to undress and wash only to find the number on the money, thinking of what meaning it may contain, lost must be anxious, ran back to the mutton restaurant, no one was seen, I didn't think about it well, I found a pin and nailed it to the wall of the mutton restaurant, explained to the store, and if someone came to find him, he would give it to him, this person was easy to recognize, and he had a small beanie on his right ear. He turned his head and asked the old Chinese medicine doctor to see the mark on his right ear, and then said, "Later, because I was busy with this and that, I didn't ask again, and after a long time, I forgot all about it." ”
Tao Yundao touched his ears and said: "Old man, I didn't have any impression at the time, I didn't notice this, it all depends on this friend of mine, I met for the first time when I ate mutton powder, and we haven't had the opportunity to meet since then, and we met unexpectedly this year." My friend's eye is keen, he saw the number, and analyzed whether there was any meaning, so we thought of looking it up, as long as there is this stub, it proves that the money was obtained from you, so what is the matter with writing and counting on the money, there is hope to figure it out. ”
Xing Yi added: "This year, the two of us suddenly met again, and when we talked about eating mutton noodles, we remembered that there were words on the change. I asked him, and he recalled, his memory was not bad, and he came to the old gentleman to prescribe medicine and pay the money to get the money, so it aroused my curiosity, so I came to find the old gentleman's trouble. Dare to ask the old gentleman, is the money on 104, is it the house number of the Wu family's old house? ”
The old Chinese medicine doctor nodded and said slowly: "The Wu family often comes to the Chinese medicine hall to find me to prescribe prescriptions and medicines, especially the old lady of her family, rheumatism, stomach pain, headache, more than ten times before and after, and they are familiar with each other after more contacts." Every time the old lady's son finished grabbing the medicine and saw that the store was empty, he sat down and chatted. Because he was familiar, I jokingly asked him what other strange objects were in the old house? He said that there was no more, and they were all taken away and concentrated in the warehouse of the administrative office. He also complained that they were unreasonable, and once went to them to discuss, the old lady often played with a string of ebony beads in her hand, which was handed down by the ancestors, although not precious but meaningful, when raiding the house, I couldn't remember where to put it in a hurry, and now I wanted to find it, and after a hundred years, put it in the coffin to accompany her, so I hope they will open the door and let me go in to find it. They said that they couldn't be the master, and they wanted to ask for instructions, so they waited for a week, and when they asked again, they said that they had helped find it themselves, and they couldn't find this object in the old house. ”
The old Chinese medicine doctor said: "Where will the old lady's son believe this, the door of the old house is locked, the second door is closed, no one can enter, and the people of the Wu family are not allowed to enter, but they themselves go to find it, and the people who are looking for it are not familiar with the situation inside, careless, sloppy, it is not easy to find at all, besides, if anyone is lucky and touches it, it is a good thing at first glance, and will be willing to hand it over?" I put my hand in my pocket and left, who knows? ”
The son of the Wu family talked about this several times, and the old Chinese medicine doctor was interested, hoping that one day the person in charge of cultural relics would come to the Chinese medicine museum, and then he would have the opportunity to help his family intercede, promise to open the lock, and let them go in and find it.
"The old mansion of the Wu family, I went in when I was a child, the courtyard of the deep house, like a labyrinth, now that I think about it, I still feel very mysterious, when it was opened, I wanted to go in and have a look again. I'm not worried about the string of beads, it's really in my hands, it's okay to observe it, it makes no sense to keep it in my hands, but the Wu family's filial piety to the old mother is commendable. ”
"Because I had this idea, I wrote down a few numbers on a piece of money." The old Chinese medicine doctor smiled happily, "I didn't expect to be taken so seriously by you." ”
