Chapter 66: You must be able to brag, dare to brag, and brazenly brag
"Has the imperial physician Dad invited arrived?"
It will take some time to go to the palace to invite the imperial physician, but judging by the time now, he should be here by now.
As the servant said this, he was about to go outside to take a look. As soon as he turned around, he heard the clear cry of a baby coming from the inner room.
Lu Wanning was very tired.
Hu Yan wrung out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her forehead with some concern.
The woman in labor had fainted from exhaustion. After making sure she was fine, Lu Wanning wrapped the baby up, placed it beside the bed, and walked out.
The person who went out to ask for the imperial physician had just returned, but it was obvious that he was no longer needed.
As soon as the door opened, Lu Wanning was met with a group of sparkling eyes. A group of people gathered at the doorway, staring at her eagerly. The older-looking lady had tears in her eyes. "Is it born? Is my daughter okay?"
"Nothing, I'm just very tired. I've passed out now. I'll wake up in a few hours."
Lu Wanning warned, "Her body is very weak right now, so she can't take any supplements for the time being. She needs to pay attention to her diet."
The faces that had been ferocious just now now all nodded obediently like chickens pecking at rice, "Okay, okay."
After asking questions about the mother, these people finally remembered, "Is it a boy or a girl? Is there any missing limbs?"
"Girls, no problem, very healthy."
Lu Wanning's throat was a little dry. "Is there any water?"
"Yes, yes, yes," the young lady said quickly, "Doctor, please follow me. I'm sorry for any oversights I may have made in such a hurry."
The older lady couldn't help herself and quietly went in to see her daughter and the newborn baby.
The eldest and second sons followed Lu Wanning to the front hall.
This family is very polite. While Lu Wanning was drinking water, a servant came over with a wooden box.
The second young master took it and respectfully handed it to Lu Wanning, "This is just a small gift to show your respect. Please accept it, doctor."
When he handed it to Lu Wanning, he was very tactful and opened the lid a crack, just enough to see the white silver ingot inside.
She wanted to help Sang Mingyue open a store, and now she needed money, so Lu Wanning did not refuse. She looked at Hu Yan and asked her to accept it.
He asked for paper and pen and wrote a prescription for nourishing the woman's body. Then he stood up and said, "Since everything is fine, I won't bother you any more. I still have things to do in the clinic, so I'll go back first."
"I wonder which clinic the doctor is from and what his name is. If anyone in the family feels unwell in the future, we can go and ask the doctor for help." The young lady quickly stood up and asked.
"Huichuntang, surnamed Lu."
The young lady and her husband looked at each other, feeling somewhat proud that she had guessed correctly.
Seeing the Second Young Master's eyes occasionally falling on the doctor, the Young Madam smiled gently and said to the Second Young Master, "Mingchang, please see Doctor Lu off."
Yan Mingchang nodded, looked up at Lu Wanning and said, "Doctor Lu, please."
Lu Wanning felt that he looked familiar. In addition, he was good-looking. At first glance, he looked a little rough, but upon closer inspection, she felt that he looked very charming.
Just the right amount of toughness.
So she couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Hu Yan next to her was about to cough out her throat before she looked away.
She was planning to return to Prince Qi's Mansion, so when this person sent her to the door, Lu Wanning said politely, "Just send her here."
Yan Mingchang shook his head. "Nothing serious. I'll just take Doctor Lu to Huichun Hall."
Lu Wanning: “…”
Another axis.
She raised her eyes to glance at the plaque on the gate of the mansion. The big words "Yanfu" made her swallow back the words she was about to refuse.
In Lu Wanning's impression, the only person with the surname Yan and two sons in the family seemed to be the Censor who was famous for his upright character and who did not get along well with Prime Minister Luo.
The eldest son of the Censor's family married the only daughter of Minister Zhen.
The second young master has not yet married.
Lu Wanning thought to herself, this must be the second young master.
Hu Yan beside her started coughing again.
Lu Wanning whispered, "I'm just taking a look, I'm not doing anything."
Hu Yan: "My throat just hurts, I didn't say anything."
“…”
What else is there to say? The look in her eyes clearly shows that she is standing up for Qi Muchao.
She just couldn't remember what this second young master did for a moment.
But looking at his strong body, he must be a martial artist.
Yan Mingchang found the expressions between the master and servant very interesting, but he didn't think much about it. He sent Lu Wanning to Huichun Hall before leaving.
Sang Mingyue, who was inside, poked her head out and looked out. She didn't show any doubts about why she came back. Instead, she stared at Yan Mingchang's back and asked, "The sun is rising from the west, isn't it? Why did you end up with him?"
Lu Wanning stopped walking and sat down, then asked curiously, "Do you know him?"
"He works at the Ministry of Justice. When my father first got into trouble, I felt something was amiss. I tried many methods and contacted many people, including this Minister. However, he was ruthless and impartial. He was also busy with official duties and had no time to care about a trivial matter like mine, so he ignored me."
Although Sang Mingyue's tone was somewhat indignant, she did not vent her anger on others. She only sighed and looked at Lu Wanning, "Why did he send you back?"
"Just now, when I was returning home, I passed by Huichuntang and met a servant from their family seeking medical help. He said someone in the family had suffered a hemorrhage after childbirth, but Old Liu happened to be away, so I followed him."
Sang Mingyue knew more about the affairs of the capital than she did, and upon hearing this, she immediately said, "That must be his sister Yan Shu."
"This Yan Shu was spoiled by her family and was extremely naive. Last year, for some reason, she threw away the husband her family had found for her and insisted on marrying a bastard from the Marquis of Tongping's mansion."
"The Yan family couldn't persuade her, so they had no choice but to go along with her. They gave her a large dowry and allowed her to take it to the Marquis of Tongping's mansion. However, even though the husband she chose was a bastard, he had a very wild heart."
"She wasn't the only one who could flatter him with sweet words. He also flirted with many beautiful women outside. Her husband's aunt, the Marquis of Tongping's favorite concubine, didn't treat her well either. Over time, a rift developed between the couple. But she was willing to marry him, so it wasn't right for her to constantly complain to her family."
"She gave birth at the Yan family. I guess she had some unpleasantness with her husband."
After hearing this, Lu Wanning sighed softly, feeling that a woman's fate was beyond her control.
She vaguely remembered that at this time in her previous life, something seemed to have happened in the Tongping Marquis Mansion and it was causing a huge conflict with the Yan family.
Because the eldest married girl in the Chen family said a few words when she returned home, she listened to some of it while pouring tea for Mrs. Chen.
It seems that the daughter of the Yan family died of a difficult labor and could not be saved. Master Yan took his two sons to the Mansion of Marquis Tongping and insisted on stabbing the man who killed his daughter with a sword.
The stabbing was unsuccessful at that time, but later during the autumn hunt, the second son of the Yan family seemed to have taken the opportunity to shoot the leg of the illegitimate son of the Tongping Marquis's Mansion. From then on, the Yan family had completely broken off with the Tongping Marquis's Mansion.
The Tongping Marquisate supported the Second Prince, while the Yan Mansion, which had originally remained neutral, directly stood on the side of the Crown Prince.
This caused the Second Prince to vent his anger on the Marquis of Tongping's Mansion.
Sang Mingyue handed the account book to Shopkeeper Wu, feeling somewhat pleased. "Madam Yan has a good personality and has a wide network of contacts in the capital, especially with Minister Zhen's wife, with whom she has a very good relationship. With these two people, the first door to your entry into the circles of the powerful has already been opened."
Lu Wanning also thought so and curled her lips, "What a coincidence."
After all, before she left with the servant, she had not thought that the woman who was having difficulty giving birth was a member of the Yan family.
Simply because I wanted to save a life.
Shopkeeper Wu's originally gloomy face now looks much better. It seems that Sang Mingyue has argued with him a lot here, and the progress is quite good.
He showed the written sign to Lu Wanning, and after confirming that it was correct, he planned to hang it up.
Lu Wanning glanced at the content on the sign.
Below this originally established rule, a line of small print was specially written: patients with emergencies, serious illnesses, and complicated diseases will be given priority.
In this way, the free clinic has played its greatest role.
As for those patients with headaches and fevers, if they won the lottery, they would be treated free of charge by other doctors in the museum.
Sang Mingyue asked him, "Is there anything else you want to add?"
“No, I think this is fine.”
When Manager Wu hung up the sign, people initially thought that Huichuntang was going to be sold. But when they got closer, they saw that it was a notice for a free clinic.
Although Huichuntang is not as famous as Yunqueguan, it is also a well-known medical clinic in Beijing.
In addition to Lu Wanning, there are several elderly doctors in the clinic.
Therefore, the free medical consultations twice a month are still very attractive to the people.
So a group of people started asking questions at once.
"Does this mean that whoever wins the lottery will be cured without paying any money, no matter what disease it is?"
Shopkeeper Wu: "No."
"What if it can't be cured?"
Shopkeeper Wu waved his hand and boasted shamelessly, praising Lu Wanning to the skies without blushing or blushing, "If Doctor Lu can't cure it, then no one can."
This was what Sang Mingyue specifically reminded me of. I must be able to blow, dare to blow, and blow boldly.
So even though he felt a little guilty, he didn't dare show it on his face.
"You're being a bit too confident. Even Mr. Liu from Skylark Hall might not dare to say such a thing."
Shopkeeper Wu: "Then you can go to the Skylark Pavilion and take a look."
"If I win the lottery, can I not have Dr. Lu see me and instead have another doctor?"
Shopkeeper Wu: "Yes, but there will be a fee."
Seeing this, these people suddenly booed, as if their free medical consultation had reached the point of forced sales.
Shopkeeper Wu cleared his throat. "I know you have doubts about Doctor Lu, but we at Huichuntang hired her at a high price. To be honest, we're offering this free clinic so you can see what she's capable of. Otherwise, you might underestimate her skills simply because she's young."
After saying this, he didn't explain much, left these people to study and discuss the sign, and turned around and went into the clinic.
Sang Mingyue said that there was no need to explain too much, but the free clinic would definitely be packed with people.
Not to mention that the patient was Lu Wanning, even if any quack doctor was found to sit here, as long as he didn't charge for consultation, these people would definitely rush in.
