Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs, constantly trying and failing in order to find suitable medicinal herbs.

As long as Dr. Fang in front of her is truly dedicated to curing patients, his medicine will not harm people, will not worsen patients' conditions, and the price of the medicine is not outrageous, Su Ruojin will not say a word.

Even if I do speak up, it's mostly to discuss his condition and seek the best treatment.

But now this Doctor Fang is taking advantage of the patient's critical condition to ask for an exorbitant price. He dares to sell a dose of medicine that costs no more than six taels of silver for one hundred taels.

His tone was aggressive, as if he would label Xu as unfilial, unjust, and untrustworthy if Xu refused to sell, forcing Xu to have no choice but to pay for the three doses of medicine.

Besides, this medicine is not the right treatment at all!

This Doctor Fang even dared to pat his chest and guarantee that as long as the medicine was taken for nine days, Xu Gongzi's uncle's illness would be cured. Isn't this just swindling money?

Su Ruojin was certain that if Xu Gongzi's uncle did not recover after taking the medicine for nine days, Doctor Fang would definitely make up some other excuse and shirk all responsibility.

If Su Ruojin hadn't encountered it, fine, but now that she had, how could she ignore it?

She glanced at Fang Dongming sideways, her eyes full of disdain, "Then may I ask, Doctor Fang, what ailment does this patient suffer from that requires century-old ginseng and fallen star ginseng?"

Fang Dongming snorted coldly, "Who are you? Why should I tell you?"

"I bet you can't say it, you just want to swindle money from people, you quack doctor." Yan Luo directly mocked.

Upon hearing Yan Luo's words, Xu Dayi subconsciously looked at Fang Dongming, his eyes filled with a mixture of inquiry and suspicion.

How could Fang Dongming tolerate this? As a renowned doctor in Yulin, having his medical skills questioned by a patient was tantamount to slapping him in the face. If word got out, how could he ever face anyone in Yulin again?

Fang Dongming was so angry that his beard trembled. He said angrily, "How could I not know that this man was beaten badly before, which damaged his lungs, causing blood stasis and obstruction of qi and blood, resulting in a daily cough? Only by using Luoxingling can the blood stasis in his lungs be relieved, thus making his breathing smooth and his illness naturally cured."

Fang Dongming was right about that. Su Ruojin had indeed examined the pulse of the person on the bed and found that he had been beaten before and his lungs were injured. If that was all, then using Luo Xingling's medicine would not be wrong.

If Fang Dongming hadn't been asking for an exorbitant price, Su Ruojin would have shown him enough respect based on that alone.

Su Ruojin ignored Fang Dongming and looked at Xu Dayi instead. "I heard from Young Master Xu that this is the second time Doctor Fang has come to examine your uncle. Did Doctor Fang prescribe any medicine before? May I take a look?"

Xu Dayi had already prepared to go bankrupt to save his uncle, but when he heard from Su Ruojin's maid that the medicine only cost six taels of silver per dose, his heart skipped a beat.

Although he still didn't believe that Dr. Fang would lie to him, once doubts arose in one's heart, it would always feel uncomfortable if one didn't find out the truth.

When Su Ruojin asked him, he nodded subconsciously, "Yes." Then he took out the prescription and handed it to Su Ruojin.

Su Ruojin glanced at the prescription. If Xu Gongzi's uncle only had the symptoms Fang Dongming described, then the prescription was indeed correct. Fang Dongming did have some medical skills.

only......

Su Ruojin casually asked, "How much is one dose of this medicine?"

Hearing Su Ruojin ask this question, Fang Dongming's face turned even uglier, and he wanted to stop Xu Dayi from answering.
