Chapter 118: What Official? What's the situation?
Di Ying smiled, withdrew his hand and said, "Old man, you can't be careless about your illness, you can't be so tired in the future." Did you come out on your own? Then you can lie down like this for a while, and I'll prescribe you a prescription. ”
As soon as the old man heard the prescription, he looked embarrassed and wanted to shake his head.
Di Ying hurriedly said again: "Don't worry, I'll give you the money for the medicine." You are sick and angry, if you don't want to become a paralyzed, you have to be obedient, remember? ”
The old man blinked, looking a little confused, but finally nodded obediently.
Seeing this, Di Ying instructed Peng Liang to look at the old man, talk to the old man by the way, inquire about the old man's address, and so on.
He went to the ready-to-wear shop where the cloth was "robbed", and while paying people money, he borrowed other people's pen and paper and wrote a prescription.
One doctor, one disease. After the party has to settle the payment.
Di Yinglong signed it with a phoenix: After Di Huaijie's three words, he blew the ink and praised the shopkeeper of the cloth shop: "Yes, you didn't chase the silver?" ”
Shopkeeper: "...... You are an official, that is the guard who follows you, you borrow me a few guts, and I don't dare to ask for it. ”
Di Ying: "...... This official in Ningzhou City often takes people and things without giving money? ”
"No, no, no, no."
The shopkeeper hurriedly shook his head into a drum, and denied it again and again: "We are a small shop, only doing some small business for ordinary people." ”
Di Ying listened, glanced at the shopkeeper, looked around the store again, and asked with a smile: "It seems that you are not doing well in this business?" Heavy taxes? ”
"No, no, no, no, not heavy."
The shopkeeper shook his head again and again, but the expression on his face was as if he was about to cry: "My lord, there are still patients outside, are you ......?"
"It's okay, let the old man lie down a little longer."
Di Ying waved her hand indifferently, and she didn't care about the shopkeeper's fearful and tangled face.
He continued to ask: "I heard that the taxes in Ningzhou are quite light, and the texture of the clothes in your store is exactly what the people need."
It stands to reason that your business is good. I saw it just now: as soon as the old man fell, there were many people nearby.
There are four or five of them, and they are still out of your shop. Shopkeeper, tell me? What the hell is going on? ”
The shopkeeper ran away......
A cigarette ran away to the backyard, and the money on the counter was gone.
Di Ying: "......"
Rubbing his nose, he jumped up and lay down on the counter, put the money in the drawer, and then turned and went to a nearby pharmacy.
There were seven or eight people who had just gone out from this pharmacy to see the bustle.
The pharmacy is not small, and the business is good, but there is no smile on the faces of the shopkeepers and the guys.
When Di Ying handed over the prescription for people to grab the medicine, she became more and more suspicious in her heart.
Ningzhou's taxes are really not very heavy.
In addition to the normal official taxes, there are no slaughter taxes, maintenance taxes, poll taxes, etc.
There is only one entrance tax: one copper plate per person.
Di Ying was canceled after taking office.
But the people did not see where the ease went, nor did they see anyone, so they rejoiced because of it.
Could it be that a copper plate is harmless?
Di Ying doesn't think so.
And now looking at these businessmen, all with bitter and hateful expressions, Di Ying felt weird.
Even if the business is not good and you lose money, you can close the door and make a living, why not cry while driving?
Before Di Ying could figure it out, the guy had already accurately grasped a few pairs of medicines, wrapped them and handed them over.
After Di Ying finished paying the silver, she walked out with the medicine bag.
The onlookers outside have already been discussed.
"What kind of officer is this? Why don't you look like it? Didn't you look away? ”
"You've just looked away, you don't know the official uniform, and your baby will be beaten one day."
"How can this official heal? Will you take off your official robe and put the old man on the ground for the crops? Why do I think something is wrong with my eyes? ”
"This ...... I wonder too. Oops? You see, how fresh is the money that this official buys and gives back? ”
"Why? The official brought a subordinate with him, and he personally went to grab medicine for the patient...... The sun is coming out of the west today? ”
"Hey, have you heard? The assassin history of our Ningzhou has changed to a new official. It's called Di ...... What is it? Could it be this person? ”
"Shut up, you, the name of the official is also what you can say? Beware of head moves. Hurry up, hurry up, don't mess with right and wrong. ”
“……”
The crowd shut their mouths and dispersed farther away.
I didn't run away because I ...... Official, official, is it?
So curious.
Di Ying heard it, and greeted everyone with a smile: "My name is Di Ying, I am a newcomer, come to me at any time if you have something?" ”
Everyone: "......"
Now they were completely scattered, and they all slipped faster than rabbits.
Di Ying: "......"
He rubbed his nose, returned to the old man's side, and checked his pulse before letting Peng Liang slowly help the person up.
Putting the medicine bag into the leather pouches on both sides of the horse's buttocks, Di Ying picked up the old man, asked Peng Liang for the address he had heard, and then asked Peng Liang to rush to Luan Mansion by himself.
Peng Liang, who remembered the matter, didn't argue with the adults, and after reporting the address, he was ordered to ride away.
The dark horse dark cloud obediently followed behind Di Ying.
Di Ying carried the old man on his back and walked very slowly.
This disease of the elderly: the blood vessels in the head are blocked by blood clots, which is commonly known as stroke.
However, because Di Ying's treatment was timely, it did not cause too serious consequences.
It's just that for the time being, the old man can't be allowed to move around by himself, and he shouldn't be bumpy, so Di Ying walks slowly on his back.
In order to keep the old man awake, Di Ying chatted with the old man.
"Uncle, what do you do at home? You came out on your own, why didn't anyone follow you? ”
The old man's tongue was no longer too obedient, and his words were a little vague.
"Old, if you don't use it, you just come out to sell some vegetables, and you can't go back. Forget it, let's go where you die, no one cares anyway.
The two daughters got married, and they couldn't come back easily. The old woman is also gone, leaving me a useless old man, the future life, the road is far away, you let me down, I can go by myself. ”
When Di Ying heard this, her nose was a little sour.
The old man shrugged up and continued walking.
The old man lives in Liujiazhai, which is seven or eight miles away from the state capital.
Di Ying was not in a hurry, and asked the old man as she walked: "Uncle, how many acres of land have you planted?" How many catties of grain are made each year? Is it enough to eat? ”
When the old man heard this, he replied with some pride and some discomfort: "Fifteen acres of land, I can't plant it all, it's all the people in the village who help."
How much can I eat as an old man? Just share it with the big guys. I used to have sons, and I had two, but ah, like the children in the village, they are gone.
Those people, they've done all the bad things, why don't they clean them up? ”
