Chapter 78
Gu Yezhou smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It seems that you are determined to help her. Okay, you can stop her internal bleeding first. Otherwise, everything will be empty talk. I have no choice to deal with her internal bleeding anyway. I will use all the medicines I can use."
"Okay! You wait!" Zeng Feixia ran back to the house. After a while, Zeng Feisong came out, followed by Zeng Feixia. When he arrived in front of Gu Yezhou, Zeng Feisong looked at him: "Do you want my ancestral internal injury pill to help me?"
Gu Yezhou shrugged: "It's not me, it's your sister!"
"No matter who it is, it is natural to buy medicine and pay for it. My pill can indeed cure internal injuries, it is very effective. My father saved his life by relying on this pill. At that time, he took the dart..."
"Ling Zun's story has been told to me, so there is no need to repeat it. It's important to save people now." Gu Yezhou interrupted him.
Zeng Feisong didn't care, so he took out a small white bottle from his arms and said, "The pill is here. Just take one pill and it is useful to keep it! This pill is called "Soul Recovery Pill"! - Listen, Soul Recovery Pill, as the name suggests, as long as there is still a breath, no matter how serious the injury is, it can be cured. This is called Soul Recovery. However, my father's medicine cannot be given in vain. This is a treasure. There are many precious medicinal materials in it. This pill alone is worth ten cents (10,000 liters)! I'm not bragging to you, this medicine is really expensive, so we go around the world and do not take it out, because no one will believe that this pill is worth ten cents. No one buys it, so keep it yourself in case of an out-of-time need. If you ask why this medicine is so valuable, as long as you listen to me and talk about the medicinal materials used here, you will know..."
"Wait!" Gu Yezhou interrupted Zeng Feisong's endless talk, "You figure it out, it's not that I want to buy your medicine, but that Ling Mei wants it."
Zeng Feisong said, "I said, no matter who buys it, it is natural to pay for medicine! Of course, I won't ask you for so much money. You are using it to help you, nor are you using it for fun. You are not a rich man, and you can't afford a lot of money. So, I'll give you a half discount, as long as you have five coins! How about it?"
Gu Yezhou frowned and said, "Why don't you listen? I said, it's not me, it's your sister who wants it! I said that this woman's injury cannot be cured, and she doesn't believe it."
Zeng Feixia looked at him pitifully: "Sir, my brother said that this is a ancestral pill. Anyone who buys it requires money. I have no money anymore, and I have bought you medicine. If I really can't take it out, you can lend me a little first, okay? Or the old rule, I won't charge you money in the future. I will deduct twenty yuan a day until it is deducted."
"That will take more than half a year. You just don't want a penny in the past six months. Is it for nothing?"
"Yes! As long as you care about the food, you'll get all the money."
"If it works, you will have to eat ginseng in the future. This is a lot of money. If it adds up, it will take a year and a half to deduct it. You will have to work with me for a year and a half!"
Zeng Feixia showed a cunning smile on her lips, but she sighed on her face: "Forget it, who told me to be so mean and get along with them and their mother and daughter, and I have to save them. Just do it for nothing, just have food!"
Gu Yezhou looked at her for a while and then said, "I said that her injury was a terminal illness and could not be cured. You insisted on prepaying her wages with me, and that would be with you. However, I am very kind and would not watch you use the money to rinse the water. Well..., let's do this, let your brother take medicine for her first. If your brother's medicine can really stop her internal bleeding, then I will ask you to advance the wages for the next year and a half to buy ginseng and pay for the pills."
"That's not possible. Even if the elixir is a magic medicine, there are times when there are any symptoms. I dare not guarantee that it will be cured. If you go to the pharmacy to buy medicine, there is no cure, right? Hehe, it depends on your choice when buying medicine. Paying money to buy medicine depends on your destiny..."
"No!" Ning Sanmei came out of the house and said anxiously, "Sir, they are joining forces to cheat you of money!"
"San Sister, it's wrong for you to say this." Zeng Feisong still smiled without any anger, "One is willing to fight, the other is willing to be beaten."
"I don't care if you want to fight or be beaten! You have used any medicine to deceive our gentleman, and I will go to the yamen to sue you!"
"Yamen?" Zeng Feisong shook his head, "No one in the yamen cares about such things now. The county magistrate was killed by hail!"
When Gu Yezhou heard this, he was shocked and asked, "The county magistrate is dead? Who said that?"
"I heard from the constables in the yamen. When it was hail, the county magistrate happened to come back from outside on the sedan chair. On the way, he encountered hail. The sedan chair was smashed to pieces. He was covered in blood. When he was carried back to the yamen, he died in the middle of the night. The sedan chair was killed with him, and there were also sedan chairmen and several constables. Alas! So the yamen is now without a leader and no one is in charge of the affairs."
"No wonder the streets are full of dead people, and there is no yamen to arrange for anyone to collect the bodies."
Ning Sanmei said angrily: "Even if the county magistrate dies, there is always something to make sense. You can't watch our husband be cheated of money by your brother and sister!"
Zeng Feixia was angry and said angrily: "What did you say? Who cheated the money? I borrowed it from your husband. I spent a year and a half to work for your husband to pay off his debts in vain! Just eat."
Ning Sanmei sneered and looked at her: "Don't think you have any intentions. Humph!" Ning Sanmei turned to Gu Yezhou and said, "Sir, she killed two birds with one stone, she wants both people and money...!"
Zeng Feixia blushed and said, "What are you talking nonsense!"
"Are I talking nonsense? You know in your heart!"
The two started to quarrel.
Gu Ye Zhou was so tall that he waved, "Okay, don't argue anymore, this matter has been agreed upon. Is this woman's internal bleeding able to be controlled? If it is stopped, it can be prepaid. If it cannot be stopped, I'm sorry, I won't pay a penny."
After hearing Gu Yezhou's words, Ning Sanmei glared at Zeng Feixia and his sisters fiercely and said to Gu Yezhou: "Sir, I want to talk to you alone! Let's talk outside!"
Ning Sanmei pulled Gu Yezhou out and arrived at a corner of the yard where there was no one. Ning Sanmei whispered: "Sir, you can't be fooled. Their brother and sister colluded. They not only sold your medicine and made money, but also wanted to ow you money to work and pay off your debts on the excuse, so that they would always be with you! Don't you know this?"
"I know." Gu Yezhou smiled, "Zeng Feixia is not a soft-hearted person, so she insisted on treating the mother and daughter. I knew she must have a different purpose, and I guessed her true intention."
"You know?"
"Well, she thinks that I have a good medical skills. I can eat and wear well, and maybe I can still make money. - This is not difficult to see."
"You still agree if you know?" Ning Sanmei glared.
"Because she is very eloquent, familiar with people, and is very good at dealing with strangers. This is the skill I need most when shaking the bell to practice medicine, but I don't know. So, for a period of time, I still need her help to open up the situation of practicing medicine. After hiring her, my doctor's intentions have made great progress. This is her advantage and cannot be avoided."
"That's because you are skilled in medical treatment! Others came for your medical skills, not her words!"
"There are both, and the wine is fragrant, and you are afraid of the deep alley. Just talking but not practicing fake poses, only practicing but not talking stupid poses. Being a bell doctor, you don't know how to shout and not mess with people, that's not making money. We can use each other. - Besides, the premise of all this is that their pills are really useful and can stop internal bleeding. If this pill really has this effect, it can be said to be a resurrection. Five guan is not much. If he still has it, I will buy it from him. Help you in the future, and the money you earn will be more than five guan!"
When Ning Sanmei heard Gu Yezhou's right, she felt relieved and said, "You have the idea." She turned to Zeng Feixia, raised her chest and said, "Our gentleman said, you should take the medicine first. If it really works, our gentleman will take out the money."
"This is not possible..." Zeng Feisong said with a sneer, but Zeng Feixia interrupted him and said, "Brother, real gold is not afraid of fire refining. It's okay. If the pills left by my father are really effective, we are not afraid of not curing them. If they really don't work, we don't have the face to ask for other people's money, right?"
Zeng Feisong thought for a while, talked for a while, and said, "Okay! I don't know if it's useful. If the pill is really useless and the person dies, then there is no need to buy ginseng. This pill proves to be worthless and cannot ask for money. Okay, just do it according to your requirements!"
"That's great!" Zeng Feixia turned her head and looked at her brother, stretching out her palm: "Get the pill!"
Zeng Feisong opened the medicine bottle, poured out one, and handed it to Zeng Feixia: "Take it! Help!"
Zeng Feixia quickly took it over, took it back to the house, and asked Ning Sanmei to take a bowl of water and personally take the woman.
The woman was already a little confused and just swallowed mechanically and couldn't speak.
Gu Yezhou conducted another inspection and found that the woman's pulse was not changed. He shook his head secretly. In fact, he also hoped that a miracle would happen, but unfortunately it was not.
Gu Yezhou said to Ning Sanmei: "I'm going to practice medicine now. You can buy the warmest robes that the three of us wear, plus the three thickest and warmest quilts. There are also a few more charcoals to come back. Remember?"
Ning Sanmei opened her eyes wide: "What are you buying these? The weather is so hot now, so it's enough to cover the quilt now. What are you buying the thickest quilt for?"
The reason Gu Yezhou did this is because he already knew that natural disasters and man-made disasters in this world will come one after another. Since it is a natural disaster, I am afraid that the cold winter will not be missing. It is winter again, and the heat is very abnormal now. Winter will definitely come. When winter comes, I am afraid that it will cost more money to buy quilts, and maybe I can’t buy what I want. I must prepare for the future.
Naturally, Gu Yezhou could not explain more to him. He just said with a stern face: "You can do whatever I ask you to do! Don't act on your own anymore! Do you understand if you do what I said strictly, and you should keep the warmest one. Do you understand?"
Ning Sanmei nodded with a pout. Although the boss was unhappy, she could only do what Gu Yezhou said. Last time she made her own decision not to buy food, Gu Yezhou was very unhappy. Of course, she didn't want to see Gu Yezhou unhappy.
