Chapter 830 Mo Jinchuan, you must be conscientious
Xi Lin took his apprentice with him to practice medicine everywhere, and he only spent the small change he brought with him when he set out. The money he earned from seeing patients on the road was more than he could spend.
It is common to encounter those wealthy and inhumane people who spend hundreds or even thousands of taels of silver.
For wealthy people like them, food and accommodation are all provided in a good condition during the treatment period, and there is no opportunity to spend money at all.
Xi Lin collected the medical fee and gave it to Chang Jiu. He collected all the amounts over one hundred yuan together with other banknotes and packed them neatly.
A rough calculation shows that the medical fees I earned in the past few months are almost over 30,000 yuan.
After all, the rule of their Xi family is that when they meet a poor person, they can charge no less or even less for the consultation fee, and when they are well-off, it is okay even if they have to pay a little.
As for those who are extremely wealthy, or who are unkind and even exploit the locals, don't blame them for being cruel and ruthless.
He can't be killed!
Song Yanxi looked at the neatly arranged stack of banknotes and frowned, asking, "Did Doctor Xi go and rob a bank on his way?"
"Pah, pah, pah!" Xi Lin glared at her and said unhappily, "Look at what you said. Am I that kind of person?"
Judging from Song Yanxi's indescribable expression, he is.
Xi Lin laughed out loud in anger, rolled up his sleeves and said, "I've been treating patients all the way here, day and night, and my arms are so thin.
You two are so good, not only do you not say you feel sorry for me, but you are actually questioning my character here."
Looking at his arms that could be described as white and tender, Song Yanxi and Mo Jinchuan looked at each other, and there was clearly more heartache in their eyes.
But the person he felt sorry for was not Xi Lin.
Poor Chang Jiu, he is so young, and he has to act like both a father and a mother to serve him, and he has to patiently accompany him in the drama of you leave and I won’t let you go.
He has no conscience. How can he be a master?
Not missing the disdain in Song Yanxi's eyes, Xi Lin covered his chest, as if he had suffered a great injustice, "We can't stay in the capital anymore. My master and I have been traveling so hard to get back, and we have worn out several pairs of shoes."
As he spoke, he did not forget to show them the brocade boots on his feet, and casually said: "This pair of brocade boots was given to me by the only daughter outside the Jade Courtyard when I was practicing medicine in Shuanghe Town.
If I hadn't been in such a hurry to come back, my good disciple might have become my master's wife again."
Even if Song Yanxi wanted to pretend not to see the pride hidden in his eyes, she couldn't.
She winked at Mo Jinchuan, signaling him to get the man away quickly.
Otherwise, his chattering would inevitably disturb Chang Jiu's mood and affect his judgment.
Seeing what Song Yanxi was thinking, Xi Lin spoke before Mo Jinchuan could say anything: "Mr. Mo, you must be conscientious.
If you hadn't asked An Yi to write to me and urge me to come back quickly, I wouldn't have done such a thing that is not worth the money."
Song Yanxi was stunned. When did this happen? Why had she never heard the prince mention it?
Xi Lin also felt strange at this moment, raised an eyebrow and asked: "What is the important matter that you have to call me back?"
He turned around and looked at the busy Chang Jiu, his expression somewhat strange.
Mo Jinchuan's eyes darkened, and he said, "It's some other things, and has nothing to do with what happened today."
Upon hearing this, Xi Lin immediately lost interest and said disdainfully, "Even though I'm handsome and kind-hearted, you can't treat me like a beast.
For such a trivial matter, he wrote a letter asking us, the master and the disciple, to come back in a hurry. How shameless!
Seeing that he was getting more and more excited, Song Yanxi said, "Doctor Xi, it's better to come back at the right time than to come back early.
It just so happens that my master will arrive in Beijing in a few days, and we can discuss medicine then."
Xi Lin sat up straight, the nonchalant look on his face vanishing as he excitedly asked, "Is Divine Doctor Huangfu coming to the capital?"
Song Yanxi nodded and smiled faintly, "My grandfather accompanied my grandmother and the master for a small gathering a few days ago, and they happened to stay in Beijing together.
Judging from the date of my last reply, it will take about three to five days."
Xi Lin had an expression that said, "I understand everything." He clapped his hands and said, "Great! If my old man knew that I met Divine Doctor Huangfu before him, he would be so pissed off that he would die."
Just talking about it, he was grinning from ear to ear, not to mention how happy he was.
If you don’t know, you might think that the person he is talking about is not his biological father, but his adoptive father.
Even if he's my adoptive father, I can't...
Noticing that Song Yanxi hesitated to speak, Mo Jinchuan said quietly, "Old Master Xi often asks when this unfilial son will be beaten to death for his misbehavior outside."
Song Yanxi smiled dryly, "They really are father and son."
Xi Lin snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "The old man thinks I'm stupid and said that if I don't change my mind in two years, he will expel me from the family tree and won't let me act under the name of the Xi family anymore.
Look at me, do I look like I'm afraid of him?"
Song Yanxi didn't know much about the relationship between the father and son, so it was not easy for her to try to persuade him.
She thought for a moment and said, "I once heard my teacher mention Old Master Xi when I was a child, but I never had the chance to meet him. Otherwise, the two of them who have devoted half their lives to studying medicine would definitely have a deep sympathy for each other."
Xi Lin sighed softly, "That's true, I don't like eating or drinking in my life, and after my mother passed away, I even gave up on beautiful women.
If he could meet an old friend who shares the same interests, he would probably be able to talk to Divine Doctor Huangfu for three days and three nights without even drinking a sip of water.
Although the words were a bit exaggerated, Song Yanxi believed that this was something that Old Man Xi could do.
After all, when the master and she had disagreements on medical theory, they could sit and debate for a whole day and night without closing their eyes.
But you still need to eat and drink water. Even if it's a donkey tied to a millstone, you still have to let it eat grass before it can work.
Thinking about the old man's temperament, Song Yanxi's eyes were filled with smiles, "My master's personality seems to be compatible with Doctor Xi, and we should be able to chat together."
Xi Lin said hurriedly, "That's great. I need to get to know Divine Doctor Huangfu better, so that he doesn't misunderstand my character if he runs into my old man."
When he thought of his father's temper, he couldn't help but feel a headache and sighed: "Other people's fathers are so close to their sons that they are like one person. They wish they could wear the same pants.
Look at my guy. He has been treating me like a nobody since he was little. If you don’t know me, you would think I was picked up from a stinky ditch.”
Listening to his analogy, Song Yanxi suppressed the corners of her mouth that were raised.
Xi Lin glanced at her and said quietly, "Laugh if you want to. I'm not angry."
As he spoke, he suddenly changed the subject, "Let me be frank, although you can laugh, you have to do me a favor after you're done."
Song Yanxi: "What's the matter?"
"Blood test!"
Xi Lin gritted his teeth in anger, his eyes gleaming, "I'm definitely not the old man's biological son."
Mo Jinchuan said indifferently, "Xier, don't pay attention to him."
"What do you mean you don't have to pay attention to me?" Xi Lin was so angry that his hair almost stood up. He asked, "Mo Jinchuan, do you not want to be your brother anymore now that you have a wife?"
