Chapter 213 She Should Know That Lin Tingfeng Is Not a Good Man

It's embarrassing to talk about this, but if he doesn't say it, Doctor Li really can't swallow this.

Zhuang Shihan clearly had not yet found a way to treat the epidemic, but she looked very confident. Anyone who saw her would think that this disease was not difficult for her.

If she really had that ability, it would be fine. He knew that his skills were inferior to others, so even if he had to kneel down and become her disciple, it would not matter as long as he could save the people of this city.

But how can the prescriptions she prescribed cure diseases?

It’s good enough if you don’t die!

But these people just listened to her. When they heard him hint not to drink the medicine she gave them for the time being, they instantly got angry and almost started fighting with him.

He was already so old, but he never thought that in his lifetime he would be pointed at and called a quack doctor, saying that he had no conscience and was not worthy of being a doctor.

Doctor Li had been holding it in for two days and was filled with anger, so he couldn't help but talk a lot.

Finally, he said, "If the people in the city didn't really trust her, I wouldn't want to work with such a person no matter what. I'd be embarrassed to tell anyone about it."

Xi Lin nodded in agreement, "Thank you for your hard work, old man."

Doctor Li choked and looked at him with complicated eyes and said, "If you really care about me, young doctor, please say less when you leave."

"this……"

"This is for your own good."

As he spoke, Doctor Li glanced back and said cautiously, "Don't be fooled by her carefree appearance, as if she doesn't care about anything. In fact, she is very petty and her mind may not be as big as a needle tip.

You've already offended her with what you said just now. Who knows, she might be trying to trip you up in the dark someday. It's better to be low-key in your future adventures."

Upon hearing this, Xi Lin immediately became interested and begged him to say a few more words.

Doctor Li refused without thinking.

He said with an expression that showed he had seen through everything: "Young man, knowing too much will do you no good."

After saying this, Doctor Li put his hands behind his back and turned around, leaving only his back to them.

After walking a few steps and seeing they weren't following, he turned and urged them, "What are you still standing there for? Come on, the patients are waiting behind us."

Xi Lin laughed out of anger, "Hey, why does this old man's words sound so unpleasant?"

An Yi suddenly asked, "Does it look familiar?"

Xi Lin nodded, and as he quickened his pace, he said, "You know what, the way this old doctor speaks is quite similar to my old man.

Hey, what do you mean by rolling your eyes? Didn’t you meet my old man two years ago? "

Seeing An walking forward without looking back, Xi Lin turned around and asked Song Yanxi: "Was what I said just now wrong?"

Song Yanxi pondered for a moment and said, "Although I have never met your father, it is obvious that the Dark Commander is not referring to this."

She said politely, "Please move your feet and let me pass."

"Okay." Although Xi Lin hadn't reacted yet, his body had already made way.

Looking at Song Yanxi's back as she walked away in the corridor, he suddenly thought of the meaningful look in her eyes when she spoke just now, and it was as if he had suddenly realized something.

He gritted his teeth and laughed angrily, "If anyone can really gain Mo Jinchuan's trust, no matter how old or young, they are not good people."

Finally, he added: "I'm not a good person either."

Following Doctor Li around the corridor, Song Yanxi felt a strong smell of medicine mixed with the smoke from burning mugwort coming towards her, which made her cry instantly.

She asked, "Why is the smell so strong? Isn't it said that using moxa smoke once a day is enough?"

Doctor Li walked quickly to the corner, took out a handkerchief smoked with mugwort that was hung on a rope over the brazier, handed it to the three people to wipe their eyes, and began to explain.

"Yesterday, I did fumigate the house with burning mugwort according to the ancient method, but today, at dawn, Princess Shihan ordered people to fumigate the house every hour.

She said it was called disinfection, and she used some words I had never heard before, which probably meant that I should just listen to her.

As the legitimate daughter of the Duke's family, she didn't know that there was a gynecologist named Xi in the palace. She acted ostentatiously and was not afraid of the world, which was completely different from the noble ladies in the capital.

Recalling the several conversations with Zhuang Shihan, in which she inadvertently revealed a sense of superiority that seemed to be above everyone else, Song Yanxi felt even more strange.

If she was like her, lucky enough to be favored by heaven and have a chance to start over, she would know that Lin Tingfeng was not a good man.

He is not as gentle and polite as he pretends to be. Instead, he is a calculating villain who only wants to take advantage of everything around him and climb up the social ladder.

The day when her value was squeezed out was also the day when he discarded her like a worn-out shoe.

Zhuang Shihan is not a fool. As someone who claims to be sober-minded as she is, once she realizes this, she will definitely withdraw before the situation becomes irreversible.

But everything she did did not seem like the reaction she should have after seeing through Lin Tingfeng's true character.

Is she really overthinking it?

As soon as the idea came to mind, it was quickly rejected by Song Yanxi.

She firmly believed that even if Zhuang Shihan was not a reborn person, she must be hiding an unknown secret.

"It's smoked once an hour. It's so smoky in here that you can't even stand. How can you live here?"

As Xi Lin spoke, he couldn't help but sneeze loudly and angrily questioned, "Such a ridiculous statement is neither recorded in medical books nor supported by folk remedies or rumors. How dare you agree with her?"

Doctor Li also became angry and said sternly, "How about you, the young doctor, take over my job, or go and consult with the doctor in person?"

Xi Lin felt a pang of pain in his teeth when he heard this, but when he thought of Zhuang Shihan's face, he subconsciously shook his head and refused, "I can't do it. I'll probably fight with her."

Although the words are rough, the logic is sound.

With just his mouth, he could provoke Zhuang Shihan to use a knife on him with just a few words. If the two of them were really together, it would not be about curing diseases and saving lives.

Doctor Li pushed open the door to the outermost chamber and instructed, "Everyone, take the handkerchiefs I gave you. Wear them over your veils when you get close. This disease is very severe, so don't be careless."

It is called a wing room, but it is actually a small square compartment with two wooden beds placed on the left and right. There is no other decoration except a small table at the head of the bed for placing medicine bowls.

So when the door of the wing room opened, the three of them could instantly see the scene inside.

Song Yanxi's first feeling was depression, followed by boredom and anxiety.

The pitiful room with small windows was already stuffy and difficult to ventilate, and was filled with thick mugwort smoke and the smell of bitter medicine.

If it weren't for the obvious rise and fall of the quilts on both beds, she would have thought there was no one living in the room just by looking at the lifeless scene in front of her.

Doctor Li explained, "The two people staying in this room are the owners of Wangjianglou and Xunxianzhai."

Song Yanxi frowned, "Weren't they able to go to the clinic for consultation on their own the day before yesterday?"

"My Lady, you don't know that although the epidemic comes on quickly and is very severe, it also varies from person to person. Some people may die within a few days of being infected.

A small number of people have milder symptoms, and although they can survive for some time, they suffer a lot.

A very small number of lucky people are not seriously ill even if they accidentally contract the disease. A few years ago, I even saw a man whose entire family died of the disease, but he was the only one who survived.

Song Yanxi nodded and murmured, "It seems that Li Zhi's child must be the case that Old Li mentioned."

"Is this really true?" Doctor Li's eyes suddenly widened, and he blurted out, "My princess, would you be willing to lend this man to me?"
