Chapter 331 Huichun Hall

The next day, the clinic opened.

It was a sunny day. Cui'er was holding a gong, banging it while loudly announcing, "Huichuntang is open today. We're offering free clinics for three days. Passing by, young or old, men and women, if you're feeling unwell, come and have a pulse check with Doctor Feng. Those who are healthy, come and have a cup of herbal tea and show your support!"

Honeysuckle's small clinic is called "Huichuntang", which means to bring people back to life. When her grandfather was alive, he always wanted to open a clinic and had thought of the name long ago, but he just couldn't raise enough money to rent a shop.

Until his death, he never achieved his wish.

Now, Jindong has opened Huichuntang, which can be regarded as carrying out his grandfather's legacy.

Passersby were attracted by Cui'er's shouting and soon gathered to watch the fun. However, this clinic was newly opened and the doctor on duty was a young man. No one believed that such a young doctor had real skills.

Honeysuckle prepared a whole bucket of herbal tea, poured it out cup by cup, and served it to the people gathered in front of the clinic.

At this time, a middle-aged man said, "Doctors usually become more skilled as they get older. You're so young, I'm afraid you haven't even learned the basics yet. How dare you open a clinic and harm people?"

As soon as these words were spoken, those who had originally reached out to take the cold tea no longer dared to take it and waved their hands, saying no.

Honeysuckle said sternly, "Although I'm young, my family has been well-versed in medicine for generations. I've been able to identify medicinal herbs ever since I can remember. I've been studying medicine for eighteen years, and I've saved at least eight hundred lives, if not thousands. Uncle, age shouldn't be the sole criterion. If you don't believe me, come forward and let me feel your pulse and diagnose your health."

"Come if you want. I'm just afraid you won't make it."

A middle-aged man in shorts walked out of the crowd.

Honeysuckle put the herbal tea aside and asked him to sit down at the table. "Please open your mouth, uncle."

"Ah." The middle-aged man did as he was told and opened his mouth.

After examining it, Honeysuckle said slowly, "The tongue is red, fat with teeth marks on the edges, and the tongue coating is thin."

"Do you even need to tell me that? I have eyes, but I can't see it myself?"

The middle-aged man didn't want such a young man to be a doctor. He became more and more anxious when he heard that what he said was no different from other doctors.

He had been ill for several years and had seen many doctors, but they all said that his illness was difficult to cure and that he should just eat and drink as he pleased and live as long as he could.

"Why are you so impatient, uncle? Can't you just talk it out nicely?"

Cui'er, who was standing by, couldn't help but feel sorry for Rendong when she saw this.

Honeysuckle gave Cui'er a look that said "it's okay" and said again, "Uncle, please extend your hand."

Seeing the other person's good temper, the middle-aged man felt that this person was a fake with no real skills. He put his hands on the table and said, "I want to see what results you can come up with."

Honeysuckle said nothing, but just took the pulse quietly.

After a while, she took the pulse and withdrew her hand. She asked the middle-aged man in front of her in a gentle voice, "Uncle, do you often have chest tightness and pain? Sometimes when it comes, the pain goes through your chest and back, and you can't breathe and can't lie down?"

The middle-aged man didn't expect that the young man could really tell his condition just by feeling his pulse. His expression changed visibly, but he still refused to believe it. "Are you just guessing?"

When Jindong heard him say this, she knew he had identified the disease correctly. "This disease is caused by the invasion of cold evil, internal injuries caused by fatigue, and old age... and it is aggravated by his addiction to smoking, drinking, and irritability. The old man has had this disease for three to five years, right?"

The middle-aged man heard this and his eyes changed completely when he looked at the young man. "You were right about everything."

"This disease is difficult to treat, but it's not completely incurable." Honeysuckle said, "I'll prescribe a prescription for you, uncle. You should take two doses first to see the effect."

The middle-aged man was instantly delighted when he heard that he could cure the disease, but he was afraid that the young man would cheat him out of his money, so he said in a stern voice, "Old Doctor Li in the west of the city said that my disease is difficult to cure. You said you can cure it right away. Are you really not just bragging?"

Honeysuckle said, "Huichuntang has just opened. I'm offering free medical consultations for three days. For anyone who trusts me, I'll diagnose you and prescribe medicine for free. Uncle, if you take the medicine here today, you won't lose anything. If it doesn't work, you won't lose anything. If it works, both you and I will be very happy."

"That's right." When the middle-aged man heard that the free clinic didn't even charge for the medicine, he immediately said, "Then I'll trust you this time. Please prescribe the medicine for me."

In public, Rendong wrote a prescription for the uncle, prepared the medicine, and then instructed him: "Uncle, in addition to taking the medicine, you must also pay attention to regulating your spirit, avoid emotional excitement, pay attention to your daily life, keep the temperature appropriately, and pay attention to a balance between work and rest. If chest pain occurs, stay in bed and rest. Be moderate and do not eat foods rich in sorghum, tobacco, or alcohol."

When the middle-aged man took the herbs, he couldn't help but pause when he heard her say several precautions. He had seen many doctors before, but they all took the money and sent him away with a few words. He had never seen a doctor with such patience.

He wanted to say something, but couldn't bring himself to say it, so he said in a stiff voice, "What's the point of talking so much? A doctor should speak with real ability. I'll go back and try this medicine to see if it works, and then I'll come back to you!"

Honeysuckle said, "I'll be waiting for you at Huichun Hall anytime, uncle."

The middle-aged man saw that no matter what he said, the young man didn't get angry, and he felt as powerless as if he was punching cotton.

He turned and walked away, carrying the herbs. Seeing him, people around him came forward and asked, "Is this really a three-day free clinic? Are you really not charging any money for prescribing or dispensing medicine?"

Honeysuckle nodded and said, "No money will be charged during the free clinic."

When the crowd heard this, they immediately rushed forward:

"Then take my pulse too!"

"I'll go first!"

"I was clearly here first, you old woman, you rushed in so fast and so agilely, how could you look sick?"

The Huichun Hall was instantly surrounded by three layers of people.

When Chunzhi brought Mrs. Wang and the others over, they couldn't squeeze in at all.

No one expected that there would be so many people at the opening of Honeysuckle's clinic.

Mrs. Wang turned to Chunzhi and said, "This distant cousin of the princess is also a miraculous doctor?"

Honeysuckle entered the military camp to treat the wounded soldiers as Chunzhi's distant cousin. Mrs. Wang and others had never seen her before, but they had only heard that she was young and had extraordinary medical skills.

Hearing this, Chunzhi couldn't help but smile, "Her medical skills are indeed good. As for the title of miracle doctor... maybe she will really be worthy of this title in the future."

As the two were talking, someone in the crowd spotted the princess and shouted, "Princess, here comes the princess! Stop crowding!"

"Make way, make way!"

When the people gathered in front of Huichun Hall heard that the princess had arrived, they consciously stepped aside to make way for her, kneeling and bowing, saying, "Greetings, princess. May you live a thousand years, a thousand thousand years."

People on the street were bowing down, it was quite a scene.

Everyone who had been trying to squeeze in front of Jindong and fight over the young doctor to feel their pulse first stopped.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control and difficult to maintain, Honeysuckle was sweating profusely. Fortunately, the princess arrived in time and stabilized the situation in an instant.
