Into Xuancheng Xianxian, From Not Being A Son-In-Law

Walking into the backyard of Baihuai Hall, Xu Nian felt as if he had returned to the medical clinic in Hezhu Village in a trance. The overall structure and layout of the house were exactly the same, but this is a prosperous and prosperous capital after all.

Compared with this Baihuaitang, the medical clinic in Hezhu Village can only be said to be a youthful version.

There was only one person in the backyard, slightly fat, with two beards, drinking tea contentedly, like a rich man enjoying Life.

He put down the teacup in his hand, twirled his beard, squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "It's such an hour, and people are still let in every day. Are you not in a hurry to eat today? It's weird."

"Who are you going to cure? Come here."

It's all here, and there is no rush to get a cure. Xu Nian first handed out the book and letter. The rich Zhang Huaigu took it, looked at the signature on the envelope, and snorted lightly:

"I still think it's someone who has such a big face. No wonder this stinky girl is so attentive."

After reading the letter, he threw it aside, picked up the medical book that condensed half of Li Shizhen's hard work, and flipped through more than ten pages at a glance, shaking his head from time to time, and nodding from time to time.

Finally, he closed the book and held it in his hand. He lowered his eyes and could not see any emotion: "It seems that my junior brother still treats everyone, regardless of the consultation fees and reasons, as long as there is a real illness, right?"

Xu Nian thought for a moment, then nodded.

Anyone who went to the medical clinic in Hezhu Village to seek medical treatment and medicine, as long as the request was not too outrageous, almost all of them could get satisfactory treatment.

What is outrageous?

For example, a Yuanwai in the county once asked Li Shizhen for a prescription, and the consultation fee was easy to negotiate, as long as it could satisfy fourteen concubines and all of them could only conceive big and fat boys.

For such an ignorant medical seeker, Uncle Li believed that he was not suffering from a disease but a disease in his brain.

It should not belong to the category of "really having a disease".

"Looking at the miscellaneous and intractable experiences he wrote in this book, you can tell that he is determined to die."

Zhang Huaigu tapped the medical book in his hand a few times, as if pointing at someone thousands of miles away, and sighed leisurely.

"It's been so many years and I still haven't gotten the hang of it."

"You have great ambitions to save the world, don't say whether you can save it, but have you ever asked if the world wants you to save it?"

"What happened back then, how many times do you have to go through before you can let yourself go..."

Xu Nian listened silently, there was no detail about what happened back then, maybe that was the reason why Uncle Li lived in seclusion in Hezhu Village.

After feeling sorry for the old friend who sent the letter, Zhang Huaigu put down the book and smoothed the corner of the book where there were no creases, but he still did not open the letter, and turned to look at Xu Nian and Xu Gu who were right in front of him. This mother and son.

"You are not sick. It seems that the patient is her. She is your mother? You have to drive a long way to the capital. Be filial. It is much better than that dead girl every day. But if my junior brother can't be cured, I will push it to you I, I'm afraid this illness is unusual..."

Look, smell, ask, cut.

It is a very common way of diagnosis, and there is no magic trick, but Zhang Huaigu frowned when he was halfway through the pulse, and then he urged bursts of filament-like Spirit Power to wrap around Xu Gu, and after a while Spirit Power restrains and soothes brows.

"So that's the case. No wonder the younger brother can't cure him, so he has to push it to me."

After the diagnosis was made, Xu Nian's heart rose to his throat, as if it was not Xu Gu but himself who was waiting for the verdict.

"Boy, I'll test you. What do you think is your mother's illness?"

Xu Nian was silent for a moment. In fact, he had been around Uncle Li for eight years, and after learning about Xiu practitioner, Demonic Beasts and other otherworldly existences, he already had a guess in his mind.

On the way to Beijing, I read the medical books compiled by Uncle Li, which further confirmed the correctness of this guess.

"My mother shouldn't be sick."

"Well, it seems that my junior brother has taught you a lot." Zhang Huaigu took a sip of tea and nodded slightly. He didn't know whether he was satisfied with the clean and mellow tea, or Xu Nian's answer, "This is not a disease from birth." , it is difficult for my senior brother and a clever woman to cook without rice, but it can be cured here, but it will take some effort."

I traveled thousands of miles to Beijing for this sentence.

Xu Nian beamed with joy: "Thank you, Doctor Zhang!"

"Don't be in a hurry to thank me, my junior brother is a good person who only cares about curing illnesses and saving lives, but I don't want to get involved with the word 'good' here, for the sake of you sending my junior brother a letter, I can cure it, But the consultation fee cannot be less..."

The girl with the shofar braids bounced into the backyard. The two shofar braids were very energetic. When she heard Zhang Huaigu's words, she widened her eyes and shouted loudly, "Old Zhang, you've lost your money." Right? Even the letter from Uncle Li is not worth your consultation fee, believe it or not, I mixed laxatives in your tea!"

Zhang Huaigu, who had been calm and unhurried and showed his superior demeanor, suddenly failed. He slammed the teacup back on the table and stared back: "Zhang Tiantian, you damn girl, who is your father?"

The cup is not broken, the tea is not spilled, which shows the skill.

After all, it was not the first time I was so angry that I slapped a teacup, practice makes perfect.

"Old Zhang, you are my father, but Uncle Li is just like this. You don't think that you are more important, do you? No, no, no..."

The girl put her hands on her hips and spoke righteously, but her small mouth seemed to be smeared with honey, so Zhang Huaigu could only turn his face away, ignoring this filial biological daughter.

Xu Nian, who watched the filial piety scene of father and daughter, was a little embarrassed. He could only force himself to pretend that he didn't hear or see anything, and silently waited for Zhang Huaigu, who took a big mouthful of tea as if venting, to continue. On the previous topic of consultation fees.

"I want a hundred taels of gold as a consultation fee."

"It doesn't matter if you can't get it out now. You can sign a debt contract. If you pay it off in one year, there will be no interest. In three years, you only need five cents, and in ten years it will cost you five cents."

"Is there any objection?"

Before Xu Nian could speak, Zhang Tiantian had already let out an exclamation, as if he had seen a ghost in the daytime: "A hundred taels of gold still count as interest? Old Zhang, are you so heartbroken that you want to give me a pair made of gold?" Put it on yourself?"

Zhang Huaigu's anger went straight to Tianling, and his long beard trembled three times.

Xu Gu also let out a low sigh, and for the first time since she decided to go to Beijing, she had the idea of ​​giving up medical treatment. She shook her head at Xu Nian: "Nianer, mother has been sick for so many years anyway, as long as you don't do heavy work, it's fine." Influence, not necessary."

Dayan's national strength and prosperity can be called a prosperous age. A bucket of rice is enough for an average adult to eat for a month. .

So, what is the equivalent of a hundred taels of gold?

It is not only a lifetime of food and clothing, but also a sky-high price that ordinary people cannot earn in their lifetime.

If there is a hundred taels of gold, Xu Gu would rather give it to Nian'er to live a good life than to make Nian'er bear a debt of one hundred taels of gold because she was not born with a strange disease, which might take her whole life to repay.
