Chapter 311 Ginseng

Old Master Liu wanted to get angry, but he still said in a deep voice: "Stop arguing. When the money is ready, I, the second old lady and Xin'er will go together."

Chen also wanted to go: "Then I..."

Before she finished speaking, Liu Qingyi muttered softly, "You're just a useless woman with no money or power. What else can you do there besides crying?"

Chen's eyes turned red with anger: "What did you say?!"

In just a moment, she was dragged away.

Hu Xin'er and her group rode the carriage quickly and soon arrived at the place the servant mentioned.

The hunting ground is in the suburbs, and there are few people living nearby. Only Doctor Zhou, who is well-known in the capital, lives in seclusion here.

Outside the thatched hut, Lord Liu was so anxious that he was running around in circles, and several of his beautiful beards were pulled out.

When he saw Old Master Liu rushing over, his eyes turned red: "Dad!"

"Now you know how to call me dad?" Old Master Liu was furious when he saw him like this, and he scolded him, "I don't expect you to do anything else anymore. I just want you to raise a good grandson for me, but what about you?"

Lord Liu blamed himself deeply: "It's all my fault. I knew that Duke Xuanyuan and his men were of bad character, but I still brought Chuo'er here..."

From inside the thatched hut, an impatient shout erupted: "Do you still want this person? If you keep talking, he'll die!"

The situation was urgent and there was no time to say anything more. Old Master Liu directly took out a thousand taels of silver.

Doctor Zhou only agreed to prescribe medicine after seeing the money, and the broken bones were set in just a few moments.

Hu Xiner watched from the side. In the past, Mr. Liu was always cool and talkative, but now Liu Yanchao's face was so swollen that only his features could be vaguely recognized.

It doesn't look like he fell, it's more like he was beaten with a sack!

Hu Xin'er thought about the Duke's wife's style of doing things and couldn't help but take a deep breath. She hoped it wasn't what she thought...

"Although the bones have been set, whether he can survive tonight depends on luck." Doctor Zhou said calmly.

The second old lady looked at her pig-headed grandson lying on the dirt bed and tears immediately fell. "What? He's not cured yet? Doctor, do you want more money?"

Dr. Zhou has extensive medical experience, and this is not the first time he has encountered this type of problem.

He said calmly, "If you want, it's not impossible."

Old Master Liu frowned slightly, noticing something was wrong.

"Even if we hire the imperial physician from the palace, I'm afraid it wouldn't be worth this price, right?" he said slowly.

Looking at Lord Liu who was in a panic, he had reason to suspect that his son was being cheated by the Duke and the doctor.

Doctor Zhou was questioned, but his expression was very calm. "One thousand taels is the consultation fee for one hour and the accommodation fee. If you add another thousand taels, I can reluctantly allow you to continue receiving treatment with me."

Hu Xiner originally felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Liu Yanchuo become like this.

But when he heard what Doctor Zhou said, he was shocked.

Wow, the world is so big that there are all kinds of strange things.

Old Master Liu obviously thought so too. He frowned and was about to question.

Doctor Zhou said strangely, "Why are you so angry? My medical conditions here are not good. I can only treat those who are seriously injured or in emergencies. If you don't want to pay anymore, go somewhere else."

His attitude was irritating, yet his logic was irrefutable.

Since the second old lady was not spending her own money, she did not attach much importance to these figures. She just cried and said, "Grandpa, please save Yan Chuo!"

Lord Liu's hand trembled, and he pulled out a strand of his beard: "Forget it! The consultation fee comes to my house!"

The second old lady cried even louder.

Old Master Liu was in great pain. "You two have never been able to save money. You bought an antique vase two days ago. Let alone 1,000 taels, I don't think you can even come up with 500 taels!"

He waved his hand and asked the servant to get the money.

In fact, he didn't care much about money. After all, the Liu family was the one that could confront the Duke's Mansion head-on.

He just didn't want to be deceived.

Now that the money had been spent, Doctor Zhou's attitude became a little more enthusiastic: "Your Excellency may have a fever soon, but once the fever is gone, he will be fine."

Not long after, Liu Yanchao's cheeks turned red and hot, and he began to talk nonsense in his sleep.

Everyone in the Liu family was worried.

The second old lady pulled Hu Xin'er aside and cried, "My dear grandson, you don't know, all my children have had miserable lives... Your mother was frail and sickly since she was young. Fortunately, she grew up to be a beautiful lady and married a good husband. But I didn't expect..."

When she said this, she burst into tears and couldn't even speak.

Old Master Liu said unhappily, "Why are you making Xin'er sad at a time like this?"

At the other end, the treetops moved slightly, and a shadow guard quietly left the clinic, then came to the Lu family and entered Mu Qing's room.

Mu Qing was still holding the broken portrait in his hand, lost in thought, when he heard the Shadow Guard say, "Master Lu, Liu Yanchao was injured during the autumn hunt. He is now Miss Hu's cousin, so Miss Hu is visiting him!"

The Shadow Guard was borrowed by Mu Qing from the eldest princess.

In fact, last night, after he came up with the idea of ​​letting Hu Xiner leave for refuge, he secretly asked the princess for a shadow guard, on the grounds of protecting Hu Xiner.

The eldest princess has always been very generous to her younger sisters, so she lent it without hesitation.

"Which clinic?" Mu Qing asked.

"It's Zhou's Medical Clinic." The Shadow Guard said respectfully.

The sky always darkens quickly in the evening, but there is not even a candle lit in the house. Mu Qing's face is hidden in the shadow of the bed curtains, and his expression cannot be seen clearly.

After listening to the Shadow Guard's report, Mu Qing's eyes moved slightly. He looked at the Shadow Guard and said, "Wait a minute."

After a moment, he took out a rectangular box and said softly, "Please give it to Doctor Zhou and tell him it's for Hu Xin'er's health. But don't leave your name."

He had also heard of the name of Zhou's Medical Clinic. It was said that although this doctor had superb medical skills, he had an extremely eccentric personality.

He was worried that Hu Xin'er would be left out there.

A mysterious man suddenly appeared in the clinic and said that he wanted to give Hu Xiner a ginseng, and then left.

Old Master Liu looked at his back thoughtfully: "This seems to be someone from the Shadow Guard."

Could it be that the eldest princess sent it? Hu Xin'er was a little surprised. She took the box, but at that moment, her nose twitched and her eyes dimmed.

There was a faint scent of burning incense on the box, and the smell was exactly the same as that in Lu Mu's small Buddhist temple!

Therefore, this ginseng was most likely given by Mu Qing!

The box was opened, and a person in perfect condition appeared before everyone's eyes.

Doctor Zhou's expression suddenly became surprised: "This..."
