"Okay, okay, my wife and I agree, but..."
Li Niu looked at Su Luo. His wife told him that Su Luo had taught him the recipe and that he was selling it for money. So Su Luo should have a copy too.
"Uncle Li, you don't need to worry about me. Fu Man Lou will give me my share of the profits." Su Luo didn't go into details, but she meant that she would also get a share of the money.
Moreover, it was Su Luo who introduced him to this matter, so he owes Su Luo more and more.
"Yan Chuan Niang, really?"
"Really, you can ask the shopkeeper if you don't believe me."
Li Niu looked at the shopkeeper again, and only believed it when the shopkeeper nodded.
The manager, of course, knew that Su Luo could earn a lot of money. She was now the young owner of Fu Man Lou, so how could she not get a share of the profits?
The shopkeeper signed a contract with Li Niu, stipulating that his tofu could only be sold to Fumanlou, and he had to sell more than 300 jin a month, with no limit.
...
After being rejected when he asked Su Luo to be his apprentice, Du Xiuyuan kept thinking of ways to get her to accept him as her disciple and teach him medicine.
Give me silver?
But the things he took last time were already his best possessions, and Su Luo didn't take them back even though she saw them.
well!
"Dr. Du, Dr. Du, please come out and save people!"
Du Xiuyuan was originally in the backyard when four or five people from Ji'an Hall suddenly arrived, each carrying a knife.
Du Xiuyuan looked at the constables and said, "It's you again. Where are you injured?"
One of them said, "It's not us who are injured, it's our boss. The wound he had when we came here last time has started to fester again, and he had a fever all night last night. You need to treat our boss quickly."
Yu Feipeng has been suffering from these two wounds for over a month. In addition, the summer heat makes them prone to inflammation and pus formation if they get wet.
A month ago, he was stabbed twice while chasing after an escaped murderer. The wound on his arm was relatively minor, but the main injury was on his back, which extended from his shoulder blade to his waist.
The prisoner was brought back, but he was also suffering. He received a subsidy, but his wounds worsened day by day. He thought that he was strong and healthy and would recover if he just endured it. But last night he developed a fever and even fainted.
If he hadn't been discovered by a few constables this morning, he might still be unconscious.
"What's going on? Quickly, get Officer Yu onto the bed and make him lie down."
Yu Feipeng was only wearing his undergarments, which were soaked with blood and pus. Du Xiuyuan used scissors to cut open Yu Feipeng's clothes.
The wound on my back was unbearable to look at; it had spread outwards, and instead of healing, it had become rotten.
"Officer Yu, did you take a bath? Your wound won't heal like this." Du Xiuyuan disliked disobedient patients the most, who made things worse.
Yu Feipeng endured the pain and lay there, saying, "It's too hot. I'm covered in sweat. I'll stay wet even if I don't take a shower."
The weather is also a problem: "Sigh, the only way to heal your wound is to cut off the rotten parts with a knife, otherwise it will only get worse and there's no hope of it healing."
"No, Dr. Du, if you cut our boss with a knife, won't he die?"
As soon as the constable finished speaking, Yu Feipeng slapped him across the face: "How dare you talk like that? Are you cursing me to die?"
"No, boss, I was just worried about you, slip of the tongue!"
Rather than continue to suffer like this, Yu Feipeng felt it was better to get it over with once and for all. Cutting off a piece of flesh was fine; he had been a constable for so many years, and injuries were commonplace. But this time, it just wouldn't heal, which was really annoying!
"Officer Yu, I can cut away the rotten flesh, but it's hard to say whether you can endure it. Moreover, the wider the wound is, the harder it is to heal. You'll have to wait for new flesh to grow, and with the summer heat, you're very likely to ooze pus again."
The constable grabbed Du Xiuyuan, slightly angrily, and said, "Doctor Du, after all you've said, can you actually cure our boss? If not, I'll go to the next doctor."
Du Xiuyuan slapped the young constable's hand away and said, "It won't help even if you change all the pharmacies and doctors in Yongle County. No doctor dares to say they can definitely cure Constable Yu's condition unless she does it herself..."
Du Xiuyuan had seen Su Luo stitch up Zhang's wound. If Su Luo came, and with the necrotic flesh removed from Yu Feipeng's wound, plus Su Luo's stitching technique, there would definitely be no problem. After all, Zhang was able to get out of bed five days after giving birth via cesarean section.
"Dr. Du, who is she? Tell us, and we'll go get her to save our boss!"
The four young constables were a little anxious. Yu Feipeng had always been very loyal to them. If Yu Feipeng didn't recover and someone else took over their duties, who knew what would happen?
"It's Madam Su from Changping Village. She's not a doctor, so I don't know if she'd be willing to come."
"As long as it can save our boss, we'll go and ask her to come. Our boss was injured while fighting against evil, and that Lady Su you mentioned won't stand by and watch him die. Let's give it a try."
Two of the four men stayed at Ji'an Hall to watch over Yu Feipeng, while the other two prepared to ride fast horses to Changping Village to find him.
Du Xiuyuan followed them out, wanting to tell the two that once they found Su Luo, they should talk to her nicely and not forcibly bring her here.
The porter who was carrying the medicinal herbs in from outside overheard Du Xiuyuan and the others' conversation. He had been to the kiln with Doctor Du before and recognized Su Luo. He spoke to Du Xiuyuan and the two constables.
"Dr. Du, Madam Su is not in Changping Village. I saw her when I went to move the medicinal herbs."
Where is she?
The two constables asked in unison.
"She went to Fumanlou with a bullock cart driver," the porter said before going to work.
The two constables trotted and leaped onto their horses; going to Fumanlou was much closer than going to Changping Village.
On Su Luo's side, Li Niu and the shopkeeper pressed their fingerprints on the contract and were about to return to Changping Village when two junior constables came in from the first floor of Fumanlou, each with a knife at his waist, shouting loudly.
"Madam Su, Madam Su, who is Madam Su? Madam Su, come out here."
His anxious expression and fierce demeanor made him look exactly like someone coming to arrest a criminal.
Fortunately, it wasn't lunchtime yet, and there weren't many people at Fu Man Lou. Su Luo and Li Niu stood up and looked at the two constables who were looking for someone.
"Lady Su, Lady Su..."
A man approached Su Luo and asked, "Do you know where Madam Su, who came to Fu Man Lou this morning, is?"
Su Luo's surname is Su, but she didn't know if the Su Niangzi they were looking for was her, so she asked.
"What's the name of the Lady Su you're looking for?"
"Su Luo, Su Niangzi from Changping Village."
It really is me!
Li Niu stood in front of Su Luo and asked the young constable, "Officer, what has this Lady Su done wrong?"
The young constable said anxiously, "No, it was Doctor Du from Ji'an Hall who said that only Madam Su can save our boss, and we are in a hurry to find her to save him."
Li Niu was relieved only after he realized he hadn't committed any crimes.
Su Luo stepped out from behind Li Niu and said to the two constables, "I am Madam Su. Where is the patient?"
