Chapter 50: The Death of the Sitting Doctor

The more people don't want to say it, the more Zhao Chuan wants to know, Zhao Chuan is this character, and he is naturally curious.

"Is it that some time ago, there was a plague in the barracks of the Hou Ye in Jiangzhou City, and I heard that the Hou Ye issued an order to recruit the Qihuang Holy Hand to treat the disease, did your father also go, and then something happened?" Zhao Chuan began to quote and guess the ending.

"It's not!" Shopkeeper Wang was very simple, "How can our family have that ability, it can only be to watch some minor folk diseases, and our father can't go to the affairs of Master Hou!" ”

Zhao Chuan drank all the tea, stood up and said, "I am grateful for the hard work of the old gentleman sitting in the hall, treating the sick and saving the suffering of the people of the world, although there is no merit, there is also hard work, but he ended up being beaten to death and not ending well, it is really tragic, I have the heart to ask about the situation, to see if I can help complain and ask about things, since you are not willing to mention this matter, I am not reluctant, then I will come to get the medicine I ordered in a few days." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he hurriedly got up to stop him, and said that the little nobleman stayed, don't be busy walking, if you are really interested in listening, I will tell you.

The shopkeeper sat down, bowed his head and muttered for a moment, then raised his head and shouted in the direction of the backyard again, asking the insider to serve tea again.

The shopkeeper called three times, but no one in the backyard responded.

"Alas, this little lady has gone up next door to play cards again! She just likes to play cards, but she can't. The guy smiled and sighed, with a helpless expression.

Seeing that the shopkeeper Wang talked about her insider, Zhao Chuan asked him where the insider's name was?

Shopkeeper Wang said that he didn't know, it was a homeless homeless girl picked up at the wharf of Jiangzhou City.

Picked up at the dock?

Zhao Chuan asked when this happened?

The shopkeeper said that just a few days ago, that day he went to the dock to deliver herbs to a merchant who was on a boat, and when he came home, it was almost dark, and he met this homeless homeless woman, holding her stomach, dying and dirty, and she asked me to help find some work for women to wash, so that I could support myself.

"I saw that she was a little beautiful, so I took her home. The second pair of medicines went down, and it was fine on the third day, I changed my clothes and washed my face, hey, I'm just a big beauty, I picked up a beautiful wife for nothing! "The king's shopkeeper was overjoyed.

"And what will she do?" Zhao Chuan asked.

The shopkeeper Wang was stunned when asked, "What else can a woman do?" Just eat and sleep, and serve me. ”

"Didn't you just say she could play cards?" Zhao Chuan laughed.

"Hehe, this, this, I'll play cards too. People have just come to live, and there are no children, and the store is not busy, so find a fun, don't worry, it doesn't matter......" The shopkeeper Wang laughed embarrassedly, and in order to hide his embarrassment, he picked up the empty teacup and got up to make tea in the backyard.

Zhao Chuan calculated the date, at that time, there were water bandits on the luxury passenger ship, and the passengers were transferred away by other passenger ships first. I feel that this woman who is rich is the fox spirit on the ship, but I don't know if this spirit will really harm people, it depends on the creation of the king's shopkeeper.

After a while, the shopkeeper Wang made tea again.

Zhao Chuan began to ask about the situation of the king's shopkeeper and his father, the old doctor.

"It's a long story, but that was a few months ago." The shopkeeper took a sip of tea, sighed, and began to tell the story of his father's death.

On that day, an elderly man with a family member near the south gate of Jiangzhou City was sick, and the head of the family came to the store early in the morning to call the doctor.

Dr. Wang is a sitting doctor in the pharmacy, and he usually doesn't go out, unless he is a neighbor in a nearby town, because of the proximity, he will not delay the guard of the pharmacy, after all, he is the only one busy in the store.

The head of the house was a sturdy man in his fifties, and he begged again and again that Dr. Wang should go.

Dr. Wang asked the patient what the condition was, and the head of the family said that it was caused by the occasional wind and cold, and the Tulangzhong in the village was not well conditioned, so he came here from afar to ask the old doctor to take a look.

Dr. Wang was very embarrassed, and said that you live in the south gate of Jiangzhou City, which is too far away from me, nearly 20 miles away, and your home is so close to the city, why don't you go to the city to find someone to see a doctor? And I'm alone in this small shop, I have to close the door as soon as I leave, and you are too far away, it will take a day to go back and forth, and it is really inconvenient for me to go. And the occasional wind chill caused by a common minor illness, a doctor can see it well, there is no need to invite me to go.

The head of the family said that the doctor in the city not only charges a high fee for medical treatment, but also has a high cost of medicine, and the family is poor and cannot afford it, so he came to you, and he came to your house because he heard about the reputation of the pharmacy here.

Dr. Wang said that I was just a sitting doctor, and I really had never gone so far to see a doctor. Otherwise, you bring the sick to me, and I will treat them for free, and the money for the herbs will only be symbolically charged, will you not be able to do so?

The head of the family said that this would not work, because the patient was old and could not withstand the toss back and forth on the road, and the family was poor, and even the fare was very tight.

Dr. Wang was extremely embarrassed, saying that this can't work, that can't work, what do you want me to do?

In the end, the head of the family knelt down in the street for Dr. Wang, and said that the doctor is benevolent, and if you see the poor people, you should go there!

There were a lot of people on the street, and when they saw this situation, everyone persuaded Dr. Wang to go for a trip, saying that saving people's lives would win the seventh-level floating slaughter.

In the end, Dr. Wang couldn't, sighed, and said Okay, I'll go and see it, but I'm not sure that I can be optimistic, after all, the patient is old, and the poor physical fitness can't be made up for by medicine.

Dr. Wang followed the master of the house, and walked twenty miles to the patient's house, and it was noon.

Zhao Chuan didn't come to one place when he heard it, and secretly said that the owner of the family is really enough, you go to invite people to see a doctor, even if there is no sedan chair to carry people, it makes sense to find a carriage and ox cart to pull the doctor, and then go to the village to borrow a donkey to carry the doctor to the head office.

"Alas, this old doctor Wang is really a real person, and he can really follow him on foot for twenty miles!" Zhao Chuan sighed, if it was himself, he would definitely not go, the person seeking medical treatment was obviously insincere, go to a bird!

"It can't be said that people are not sincere enough, after all, that family is too poor." After the shopkeeper sighed, he continued to tell.

When Dr. Wang arrived at the patient's home, he immediately asked to see the patient, and found that the patient was an elderly woman.

The patient was scrawny, his eyes were closed, his face was pale, and his lips were black.

Doctor Wang's face sank when he saw it, and he immediately gave the patient a pulse.

Dr. Wang's hand was on the patient's inch, and he was silent for a long time, and his face became more and more ugly.

Dr. Wang asked the head of the family, how old is the old man? Answer: More than seventy.

How long have you been sick? Answer: It's been more than three months.

"As the saying goes, you don't stay at seventy, you don't stay overnight at eighty, your old lady has been sick for three months, and you've dragged your illness like this, what are you asking me to do?"

Doctor Wang had a straight temper, and immediately reprimanded the head of the family after hearing this, and asked him why he didn't tell the truth in the pharmacy just now.

The head of the family was busy laughing and explaining that it was because he told the truth about his illness and was afraid that the doctor would not come.

"Then why didn't you ask my husband for treatment earlier? What is the reason why it has been delayed for so long, and a minor illness has become a major illness! ”

Dr. Wang was very angry, saying that no one would ever lie to him like this, he has traveled 20 miles to come here with you, do you want me to come to diagnose and test me, or let me come to exercise?

How can Dr. Wang not be angry?

The head of the family seemed to have something unspeakable, but he just bowed his head and said nothing, letting Doctor Wang reprimand.

Doctor Wang shook his head and sighed, saying that it is not my purpose to reprimand you, this old woman has been sick for too long and has lost the best opportunity for treatment, I am afraid that I will not have the strength to return to heaven, and I will go back after speaking.

When the head of the family heard this, where was he willing to give up, he immediately grabbed Dr. Wang and pleaded for help, seeing that Dr. Wang was determined to leave, he called his teenage son to kneel in front of Dr. Wang.

Dr. Wang was so angry and anxious that he almost fainted to the ground. I ran dozens of miles in a hurry, and I haven't even drunk a sip of water until now, so I can't imagine this is the case.

"That's it, that's it, I knew it now, why bother in the first place!"

Dr. Wang sighed, so he had to return to the patient's bed, carefully check the pulse again, and then carefully prescribe a prescription, saying that only dare to try it, whether it has any effect is not good, go to the pharmacy to grab the medicine.

The head of the family took the prescription, but he still couldn't kneel on the ground, and pulled Dr. Wang to go back with him to get the medicine.

Doctor Wang laughed angrily and said that you are so pedantic, what are you going to do with me? It's good that I don't charge you for consultation, but do you want me to give you medicine for nothing?

The head of the house said that this is not what he meant, I want to go back with you and go to your store to get medicine, I can't trust the medicine in other stores......

Doctor Wang was about to go crazy, looked around at the family with four walls, and said helplessly, "Whatever you want." ”

Doctor Wang is really a bit big, he has been a doctor for decades, and the first time he encountered this, "It's okay to go to my house with me to grab medicine, but it's not free. At best, I will collect a little bit, and I can't break the rules of my grandfather. ”

The head of the family understands it, and this truth is naturally understood.

So the head of the family followed Dr. Wang back to the pharmacy, and Dr. Wang was kind and full of kindness, gave the best medicine, and charged the least money.

A few days later, the head of the family came to thank Dr. Wang, saying that after taking Dr. Wang's medicine for a few days, the patient had improved significantly. I want to prescribe medicine for a few more days, because I will have to go out to work to make money in a few days, and I don't feel at ease by letting other people wait on the patient. Just wait for the patient to heal and run away from home.

Dr. Wang was very happy when he heard this, and he agreed, it seems that his efforts were not in vain, and it was not in vain that he ran dozens of miles in vain.

"Originally, this matter came to an end, and the future development of the disease should gradually get better, and there is no suspense. But ......" the shopkeeper Wang said that he was remorseful, slapped the table hard, and blamed himself.

"What's the matter? What's going on? Zhao Chuan asked.

The shopkeeper Wang said that the head of the family was ready to take the medicine, and the old doctor Wang heard that the head of the family had something to go out of the house, and it was necessary for the head of the family to take care of the sick himself.

Unexpectedly, at this time, some neighbors in the town came to call out to Dr. Wang, saying that a woman had suddenly become insane, and asked Dr. Wang to hurry over and take a look.

"Alas, what a grievance, this is where things are broken! I happened to be back from outside at this time. The shopkeeper said.

"Why is it bad? It won't affect people to grab the medicine when you come back. Zhao Chuan said.

The shopkeeper said that it doesn't affect it, you listen to me.

Zhao Chuan straightened his waist, moved his body, and said that your story is really a bit long, can you make a long story short? I've been listening to it for half an hour, and I'm a little hungry when I hear it, and I don't know how your father died, and the storyteller doesn't have the water you talk about.

Shopkeeper Wang was a little embarrassed by Zhao Chuan, so he had to get up and go to the backyard to make tea under the pretext of excuses.

There was not much time, the shopkeeper Wang came back, and Fu began to tell again, Zhao Chuan saw that it was still early, so he had no choice but to listen patiently, who made himself naturally curious.

Shopkeeper Wang came back from outside and entered the store, and Dr. Wang muttered, saying that you kid don't touch the house all day long, and you run around every day to sell what medicinal herbs, and you come back today just because I have something to go out, you give this man the medicine on this prescription to catch all the medicine.

Doctor Wang got up and handed the list to his son, and hurried out with the man who had come to call him.

Shopkeeper Wang took the prescription and grabbed the medicine, and he studied with his father since he was a child, and he was very neat.

But when it came to the last taste of the medicine, he was stunned.
