Chapter 18 Women are weak, mothers are strong

In order to invite Xia Baolan to come forward, the magistrate was generous enough to prepare a large sedan and wait outside Suxin Medical Center.

Zhang Bantou personally stepped forward to lift the sedan curtain and said enthusiastically: "Doctor Xia, Miss Gao, please!"

She was happy to hear others call her "Tall Girl", and she immediately stood up with her head held high, as if she had really grown a few inches taller, and she became radiant and confident.

"By the way, this is medicine money."

When the two of them were sitting in the sedan, Team Leader Zhang remembered that he hadn't paid the consultation fee yet, so he immediately took out a heavy silver ingot from his money bag and stuffed it into Xia Liang's hand.

"Bot Zhang is polite, but those medicinal materials don't cost that much." Xia Liang waved his hand and refused to take the silver ingot.

"Hey, the rest are just brothers. I'll treat you to a drink or something, but don't be polite to me." Seeing that Xia Baolan refused to accept his offer, Zhang Bantou keenly caught the eyes sparkling with joy on the side. He immediately understood and

The money was handed into her hand.

"Yes, yes, it's other people's feelings after all. Master, your consultation fees are so cheap, our hospital can hardly make ends meet." She stroked the bright and shiny silver ingot with her small hands and stared straightly, "

Master, I'll keep it for you first, and then record it in the medical clinic's account books later."

Xia Liang squinted at her. As a master, he still didn't know the virtues of his apprentice?

She turned around and enriched herself!

But he didn't bother to point it out.

Just think of it as pocket money for this silly girl.

Afterwards, the sedan chair was lifted up and headed towards the magistrate's office with a group of government officials leading the way.

"Master, your fame is really getting louder and louder!" Gao Xing sat on the soft cushion and said with great emotion.

"Being famous is not a good thing." Xia Liang smiled slightly.

"What's wrong? Master, doesn't he want to be famous?" Gao Xing tilted his head and couldn't figure it out.

"I prefer the life of Xianyun Yehe. Fame and wealth are as insignificant to me. Practicing medicine is just a temporary interest. Do you believe what my teacher said?" Gao Gao shook his head.

But immediately, she frowned again, "I don't believe there are people in the world who don't love fame and fortune, but Master certainly won't lie to me when he says this, so I just believe it!"

Xia Bao smiled and showed a cunning, fox-like face, "How many times have I lied to you? You little fool, I'm just playing with you."

I was speechless with joy, and after thinking about it, it made some sense. This Xia Liang had teased me not once or twice, and he was very evil!

He immediately clenched his fists and wanted to punch him hard.

"But this is the only thing I have ever said. But now it seems that unless you live in seclusion and find a paradise, a talented person like Wei Shi will not seek fame and fortune.

I will also pounce on you."

he sighed.

For a moment, I was so happy that I didn't know if he was showing his true feelings or if he was just showing off his beauty.

Arrive at the Yamen.

Zhang Bantou opened the sedan curtain and laughed happily, "You two, we are here!"

Tongzhou City was an administrative unit at the county level in the Southern Tang Dynasty.

However, counties are also divided into large, medium and small. Obviously Tongzhou is a large county with hundreds of thousands of people under its jurisdiction. It is built near the sea and is destined not to be poor. Therefore, the rank of the Tongzhou magistrate is not low, at least a seventh-grade official.

Although he is a seventh-rank official, he is as small as a sesame seed to the imperial court, but to the common people, he is still a huge official, so the chief of this county is also known as "Baili Hou".

He holds the power of life and death in a county. His authority is extremely important and must not be offended.

But now Xia Liangliang followed Zhang Bantou into the magistrate's Yamen with leisurely steps. He entered through the side door, looked left and right, and came to the lobby in the backyard of the Yamen for receiving guests.

"Master Li! Doctor Xia is here!" Zhang Bantou roared.

The next moment, a middle-aged man wearing a plain round-collar robe came out. He had an elegant face and a beard. When he saw Xia Baobo, he did not put on the pretense of a county magistrate. He bowed and said anxiously: "Su Wen Xia

The doctor has superb medical skills, but my mother has been suffering from chest tightness and pain recently and is bedridden. I have invited many doctors in the city to treat her, but there is nothing they can do. Not long ago, my mother's condition worsened and she became blind. I hope Dr. Xia can lend a helping hand to my mother.

Get rid of illnesses!”

Although Li Zhixian's words were polite, Xia Liang knew clearly that he had no choice but to look for him.

Although he has become famous during this period, he has not yet established a stable foothold in Tongzhou City. Many people know his name, but they still have doubts about his medical skills, so it is impossible for Li Zhixian to think of him in the first place.

However, Xia Liang didn't mind this little thing and said, "I wonder where Ling Ci is?"

Li Zhixian immediately led him into a bedroom.

I saw an old woman with gray hair lying between the brocade quilt and embroidered couch, her breath was weak and she was moaning in pain.

Xia Liang stepped forward and checked her pulse.

He frowned and looked at Li Zhixian, "When did Ling Ci's chest tightness and pain begin? Please be more specific."

"Three days ago in the morning." Li Zhixian said quickly.

"In these three days, can I eat or defecate?"

"I ate some light white porridge, but I didn't have any bowel movements."

When Xia Liangliang learned about the symptoms, he couldn't help but nodded, "As Ling Ci grows older, his body will inevitably decline, and evil winds will enter the body, causing qi and blood to accumulate and block. However, an ordinary doctor can treat these symptoms well, and they will not lead to blindness.

, the most likely cause is that Ling Ci was injured when she was young and the old disease recurred."

Li Zhixian frowned and lamented: "I was playful when I was young. One day I went up the mountain with my friends to play and catch rabbits. Unfortunately, I encountered a wild wolf. In desperation, I climbed a short tree to survive. I called out to others, but my mother heard me.

, fought with the wild wolf with her fists regardless of her own safety, and other people arrived from behind and rescued me. She also suffered a lot of injuries and was covered in blood."

As he spoke, a look of regret appeared on Li Zhixian's face, his face turned pale and he was downcast.

Xia Liang said that the old illness most likely occurred at that time.

"A woman is weak, but a mother is strong. I will definitely try my best to save Ling Ci." Xia Liang nodded and was about to let Gao Gao open the medical box he carried with him and take out the needle set from it, when he suddenly heard a voice shouting:

"Li Zhi County Magistrate Ci is ill, why don't you ask me to come and treat him?"

The three people in the room turned their heads to look, and saw an old man with a goatee and a slender face, dressed in silk and satin, and dressed like a man outside the staff walking over.

"Doctor Xue? Didn't you go to visit relatives in other places?" Li Zhixian couldn't help but be startled when he saw the man.

"Didn't I just return to Tongzhou? I heard about what happened in Li Zhi County and rushed over in a hurry. Since I am here, there is no need for anyone else. A country doctor, he just happened to save a few people and became famous, even if it is a little humble.

How can I be qualified to treat Li Zhixian’s mother?”

Doctor Xue glanced at Xia Baolan with contempt, then walked to the bed and stretched out his hand to feel for his pulse.

Hearing someone speak so rudely, I suddenly frowned when I was happy.

"Who is this guy? Why is he talking like a barking dog!" Gao Xing cursed unceremoniously.

"Huh! Who is this old man?" When Doctor Xue heard this, he immediately turned his head, showing a proud look, and said with a smile: "I am from Jishi Hall! Where is the uneducated girl? You are the boy next to me.

Don’t discipline her properly!”

"Master, what is Jishitang?" he asked happily and puzzled.

"You can understand it as an organization established by a group of very powerful doctors, including many palace doctors. Any doctor who can be recognized by Jishi Hall will definitely not be any worse at medical skills." Xia Liang explained.

Hearing what Xia Liang said, Doctor Xue was quite impressed and said with a smile: "Boy, since you know about Jishi Hall, you should understand that you have nothing to do here. Go back quickly, I am going to start my medical practice!"

Xia Liang didn't mind the offence against Dr.

But he couldn't help but shook his head and said sincerely: "Doctor Xue, please forgive me for speaking out boldly. With your medical skills, you may not be able to cure this old man."
