Chapter 552 Uncle Chen
Hurry to Jishitang.
When I got off the carriage, I saw the big gourd hanging high.
Lin Chuqian was stunned for a moment like last time, then Gao Zili who was next to her impatiently pulled the door in.
"Doctor, is anyone there?"
Seeing that there was no one in the shop, Gao Zili yelled at the top of his voice, as if someone was seriously ill and urgently needed medical treatment.
Sure enough, the little guy from last time walked out of the hut at the back door, and before he saw the person clearly, he hurriedly responded: "Here, here, where is the patient?"
When Gao Zili saw the person coming, he grinned lightly. "Miss Ben came to see the injured old man last time."
The little guy scanned around, but couldn't see any patients at all. He fixed his eyes and saw two young girls. After careful identification, he suddenly realized and slapped his forehead. "It turned out to be you."
Gao Zili hugged her chest in displeasure, snorted coldly, and maintained her arrogant and arrogant posture.
Lin Chuqian felt it was funny for a while, and silently stepped forward and asked politely, "I wonder if the old man we brought here for treatment is still here?"
"Yes, yes." The little boy nodded repeatedly, and then he realized it, and quickly led the two of them to the backyard.
Although this Jishi Hall looks small, I didn't expect that there is a hole in the back.
Passing through a short corridor from the front house, the open backyard leaps into view, a proud pine tree, under which is a pine table and several wooden pier for sitting and drinking tea.
Looking further into the depths, there are a few simple houses, and they live in them compared to usual.
All kinds of medicinal herbs are dried on the railings on the ground in the vast backyard, and the tangy smell of traditional Chinese medicine cannot be ignored.
Gao Zili couldn't help covering his nose, showing a little disgust. "What does it taste like?"
"Naturally it smells like medicine." The boy explained with a good temper.
Lin Chuqian frowned, silently covering her nose with a handkerchief.
It's not that the two of them are hypocritical. In fact, in this freezing day, many medicinal materials that have been dried before are damp. When they are exposed to the sun, the wet and smelly smell is mixed with other medicinal materials, which is really unsatisfactory.
The young man took the two of them to a corner next to the house where medicines were specially prepared, and said to a stooped old man, "Uncle Chen, someone is looking for you."
Uncle Chen raised his head, his cloudy old eyes were full of doubts.
Thinking about it, he couldn't recognize the two of them.
It's fine if Lin Chuqian and Gao Zili recognize each other.
"Old man, it seems that you are recovering well here, and your complexion has improved a lot." Lin Chu stepped forward with a smile.
Gao Zili seemed a little unwilling to show weakness. "That's right, thanks to the last time, Ben. The two of us helped you to this Jishitang."
At first, Uncle Chen murmured, how could two such young girls come to him, now he would listen to what the two of them had to say, and he immediately understood.
Isn't this the benefactor who saved his life last time?
"It turns out that the two benefactors have come." Uncle Chen put down his work and said gratefully: "If there were not two benefactors who rescued me last time, I might have died on the street long ago. I really don't know how to repay it."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but knelt down to thank them both.
Lin Chuqian hurriedly stepped forward to hold his arm, and said with a smile, "The old man's words are serious, but it doesn't have to be so easy."
"No, in this city I'm just a lowly life. Even if I'm rotten in the mud, will anyone pay attention to me? If I hadn't been lucky enough to meet two benefactors, I would freeze to death even if I wasn't beaten to death by that young master." Xu Shi lamented his unfortunate fate, and the old man couldn't help sobbing.
Seeing him like this, Lin Chuqian probably could understand his mood.
At the foot of the emperor, the royal family and nobles are all over the street. The lives of ordinary people who wander here like him are indeed worthless than grass.
The two chatted with Uncle Chen, and learned that after his wounds were healed, he stayed in Jishitang to do some chores, helping out both internally and externally, although he was not as agile as a strong young man. , but can also help.
It seems that Zhong Yan took him in.
The smell in the backyard was too strong, and Lin Chuqian couldn't hold on any longer, and without delaying Uncle Chen to continue decocting the medicine, he returned to the front yard led by the boy.
As soon as he left the backyard, Gao Zili couldn't help complaining. "Can you still sleep after smelling that smell at night?"
"It doesn't smell so bad after you get used to it." The boy scratched the back of his head with a naive smile.
Seeing that Chen Bo'an was well, Lin Chuqian thought about the promise he had made with Zhong Yan last time to pay all the expenses during Chen Bo's treatment when he came back. Although Zhong Yan didn't seem to be there, since he came, he would naturally have to give the money.
"Today we came here to pay the consultation fee. I wonder how much money Uncle Chen spent recuperating in Jishitang during this period?"
The little guy froze for a moment, as if he couldn't react.
He remembered that she gave a deposit last time. As for whether the deposit is enough, whether the rest of the consultation fee should be collected, and how much, he is still not sure.
"Why don't we wait for Doctor Zhong to come back to discuss this matter!" The young man looked embarrassed.
Lin Chuqian nodded and asked, "When will Dr. Zhong come back?"
"I guess it will be soon."
Lin Chuqian looked at him with a subtle expression, and a strange thought came to her mind.
"Doctor Zhong, you won't help others look after piglets, will you?"
The boy looked up in surprise, quite surprised. "how do you know?"
"...guess."
Lin Chuqian thought that it was not her wit that was to blame, but Zhong Yan's first impression on her was too deep.
"How could you guess this?" Gao Zili expressed doubts.
No one would have guessed that Zhong Yan, a serious doctor, also took a part-time job to help others look after piglets.
Lin Chuqian didn't intend to explain, she sat down and waited calmly, secretly laughing in her heart.
After all these years, he's still doing the same thing.
The same hanging pot to help the world, the same. Delivering piglets.
He is really a good doctor who does not distinguish between humans and animals.
-
As the boy said, after they had sat for a quarter of an hour, a slightly embarrassed Zhong Yan appeared.
He had his sleeves rolled up, with unknown excrement on his hands, and the joy of delivery on his face, but the smell on his body was so fresh and tangy.
Lin Chuqian silently took out a handkerchief and covered her nose, and Gao Zili followed suit.
Zhong Yan was quite surprised to see the two of them. He stepped forward and wanted to salute, but who knew that the two of them reacted too directly, so he took a few steps back.Only then did he realize the wonderful smell on his body, and said with a shy smile: "Please wait a moment, please allow me to go back to the backyard and change my clothes."
The two who covered their noses nodded silently, expressing their agreement.
A moment later, Zhong Yan reappeared after being cleaned up, his body smell was covered by the faint smell of Chinese medicine, and the blue clothed ministers showed a bit of elegance.
"Let the two of you laugh."
Lin Chuqian took back the handkerchief, pursed it slightly and saluted slightly, with a very decent manner. "The two of us took the liberty to come here today, and I hope we haven't disturbed Dr. Zhong."
"Miss Lin is serious." Zhong Yan also responded politely. "I don't know if you two are here, but it's because of Uncle Chen's business?"
"Exactly." Lin Chuqian nodded slightly. "It's been half a month since Uncle Chen was entrusted to Ji Shitang to take care of him last time. I'm here today to pay the consultation fee for this period of time. I'd like to ask Dr. Zhong to make an estimate, so as to save the two of us from making a wasteful trip."
Tomorrow starts to be my dark hour. . . .
