"The hospital is so busy, why have you been running to the old man's mansion for the past two days?"

Gu Huai, who was sitting on the other side of the stone table, picked up the chess pieces, and his face was a little excited: "Qian Lao, this is driving people?" ”

"You know that the old man didn't mean that," Qian Lao shook his head, "What's going on?" ”

"I've read a sentence before, saying that history has never been new, but now it seems to be in the same sentence," compared to Gu Huai's somewhat vague words, the sound of the chess pieces falling was very crisp, "It's nothing more than cannibalism... It's just that people now have a bigger appetite and more ruthless means. ”

Qian Lao frowned slightly, leaning forward: "Yes... Disaster relief? ”

"After curing the plague, it is naturally a matter of relief and resettlement of refugees, and I originally planned to ask for it to be done together, but Brother Li didn't negotiate it, so I could only watch the government abuse people's lives... But at least there is the right not to look at it," Gu Huai picked up the teacup, "Speaking of which, I am relatively simple, and I actually wrote a suggestion to send it, and now it is estimated that he is lying on the table of a small official, or has been thrown into a paper basket - this is the fate of those who expect to be an official." ”

"It's a pity that the old man is just idle at home now, so it's hard to ask, otherwise Fu Yin will have to sell the old man a few thin noodles..."

"This kind of thing can't be managed, and it's not Jiangning Mansion Yin alone who has the final say, how many people in the huge official mansion want to make a fortune from it? Anyway, there are so many refugees who can't be cured, and if they die more, they will make more money, as long as the plague is stopped, it will be a great achievement, who will come to check how much silver they withhold? ”

"That's why you came here to hide? There is no need to be so disappointed, there are still many people with lofty ideals in the palace of the capital... Then again, what kind of ideas did you come up with? ”

"The most efficient way to provide disaster relief is nothing more than that, establishing a quarantine system, building public toilets and ditches, concentrating on the incineration of corpses, and optimizing food supplies... In fact, if you do this for a month, you can open the city gate, and it won't cost much, who knows that the government is not even willing to spend this money? ”

Qian Lao stroked his beard: "Hmm... I didn't expect you to have a lot of research on these, but the old man still has some connections..."

"Don't waste the favors you have saved so hard."

"What's the use of the old man keeping those favors?"

"It's good for Brother Li to keep them."

"Li Di?" Qian Lao shook his head, "The old man still doesn't think he made the right choice." ”

The old man is like this, he looks down on everything in the world, even if he doesn't think you're right, he won't stop you, because he understands that only what he has walked can he look back most clearly.

Gu Huai glanced at the corridor without a trace: "Brother Li has been running around these days, and he has really made a lot of efforts, if nothing else, he will definitely go up after this incident, who can say clearly about the future?" ”

"After all, he is just a forensic doctor, he has the talent to study medicine, and he can obviously benefit the common people..."

"Speaking of forensic medicine... I knew a senior before, he said that there are too many unjust, false and wrongful cases in this world, so many people don't know how to investigate, and in the end they can only perfunctory, in a case, the corpse can also speak, but no one has ever summarized it, how does Qian Lao know that Brother Li will not become a beacon for future generations? The so-called healers are not necessarily only able to cure diseases and save people. ”

Li Di, who had been standing in the shadows and listening silently, burst into tears.

Qian Lao's face moved slightly, but he still shook his head and dropped the last chess piece.

The outcome of the chess game was decided, Gu Huai got up to say goodbye, and finally glanced at Li Di, and nodded slightly to say hello.

The plague has been stopped, and the only intersection between him and Li Di is that this time they worked together to facilitate this incident, and he also knew that Li Di could not become his friend, because Li Di's sense of justice would one day burst out... Who made him go to earn money in the first place?

But there are still more people like Li Di in the world, and the world will be a little better.

Gu Huai didn't guess wrong, from this day on, he never saw Li Di again, and thirty years later, a book was born, which reminded him of the young man who gave up becoming a famous doctor and chose to start from the grassroots level.

traveled to various prefectures and counties, and the official went to the criminal department to serve as a waiter, just to solve the case and return the innocence of the deceased, summed up countless experiences, and wrote the hand-me-down work "The Record of the Great Dry Washing of Injustices".

A drink and a peck, it seems to be a destiny.

……

Walking out of the Qian Mansion, I saw the pale green skirt at a glance, and the petite maid walked behind Gu Huai with an expressionless face, opening her mouth to speak.

Gu Huai, who was walking in front, didn't look back, but seemed to see it: "Don't rush, don't rush, it's really fast." ”

Qingming narrowed his eyes beautifully: "The people and money of the Li Mansion have been invested, and the young lady is coming back, what about the return you said?" ”

"I said I would wait two more days... Why, you don't have a share of the silver? Nothing must be brewed first? ”

Qingming glanced back at Qian Fu: "What are you hiding?" ”

Gu Huai was silent for a moment: "See it?" ”

"If you have to open a pharmacy to borrow money, how can you go to the city wall and not ask?"

"That's the same way," Gu Huai scratched his sideburns, "It's indeed appropriate to say 'hide'... I really can't see the scene outside the city, so in order to avoid a disturbed conscience for the rest of my life, I can only find something to pass the time. ”

"Disaster relief is a matter for the government, and it has nothing to do with you."

"That's true, but in the end, I'm no different from those people, they all rely on the dead to make a profit, and the silver is stained with blood."

"What do you mean?"

"Do you think, with such a disaster relief law, how many more refugees will die outside the city?" Gu Huai walked on the street with his hands in his hands, "The refugees outside the city are divided into two groups, one can be treated and the other cannot be treated, seeing that others can live, but they can only wait for death, what will those refugees think?" ”

He slowed down a little: "And now the government is doing this again, some refugees who could have survived are also going to die, there is nothing in this world more cruel than giving people hope to live, and then depriving them, and now there is only one spark missing in this scene." ”

Qingming tilted his head slightly, and after a while, a touch of horror appeared in his eyes: "You want to make things bigger?" ”

"Of course, what do you think I'm waiting for? The government is careless of people's lives, but a princess in a pharmacy stands up to turn the tide, and the effect is more effective than any advertisement. ”

Qingming's eyes were gloomy: "I can find some people in the official mansion..."

"I really don't need to, in fact, you and Li Di are wrong, my temper is not so good, and I am not so bearable," under the sun, Gu Huai looked at his toes, "I regard human life as cheaper than grass, and I don't do anything, I just want to sit in the yamen and take the money and earn my political achievements?" Where in the world is there such a good thing? ”

"Stop," Qingming looked into Gu Huai's eyes, "I don't know what you're going to do, stop immediately." ”

"It's too late," Gu Huai didn't look back, only leaving a shadow on the bluestone street, "Some people... It's time for a long memory. ”
