Chapter 986: Medical Treatment Part 3
Manbao enthusiastically escorted Yin Huo out the door, instructing him, "You can continue to take this prescription now, but stop taking it on the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year. I'll have Bai Shan bring the medicine to you. This medicine also requires seven days of treatment followed by two days of rest. Come back to take your pulse then, and I'll consider changing the prescription for you."
Yin Huo nodded, turned around and stretched out his hand to his servant.
Changshou was stunned for a moment, and Yin Huo lowered his eyes to look at the purse on his waist. Changshou reacted and immediately took out the purse and handed it to Yin Huo.
Yin Huo handed the purse to Manbao, "This is money for medicine. If it's not enough, I'll give you more tomorrow."
Manbao poured it out and looked at it. There was a string of copper coins and a few pieces of silver inside. She said, "You don't have to buy ginseng. This money is enough for you to buy medicine for a month."
Yin Huo didn't expect it to be so cheap, because as far as he knew, every time Doctor Tan came to his house, the family would spend no less than twenty taels just for the consultation, not to mention the gifts given during festivals and birthdays to maintain the relationship.
Yin Huo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that he still had enough money.
Changshou glanced at the sun and became anxious, "Master..."
Yin Huo nodded, took the servant's hand and got into the car.
Manbao stood at the door of the drugstore and waved goodbye to him. He turned around happily and almost bumped into the shopkeeper.
The head shopkeeper was also looking at the direction where Yin Huo disappeared. When he saw that person walking away, he retracted his gaze and looked at Manbao: "Manbao, can you cure Master Yin's illness?"
“I’m not confident it can be cured, but it can still provide some relief.”
"How long can you guarantee he will live?"
Manbao said unsurely, "Twenty-five or twenty-six?"
That was better than he had expected. The head shopkeeper lowered his voice and said, "Try your best to treat him. This young master's illness is notoriously difficult to cure in the capital. If you can cure him, no, even if you can just let him live for ten more years, you will become famous."
Manbao: "...Boss, I didn't treat him for fame."
"I know you're a kind-hearted doctor and can't bear to see people suffer, so just treat them well and we'll take care of these mundane matters."
Manbao: ...That's not the case. If she was just a kind-hearted doctor, she wouldn't have gone to so much trouble. But why would she go to so much trouble?
Manbao coughed lightly and glanced at Baishan.
Bai Shan had already asked Dae Gil to pack up his things and asked, "Going home?"
Manbao nodded, "Wait, let me get some medicine first."
So that I don’t have to come to get medicine early the day after tomorrow.
Manbao handed the prescription to the chief shopkeeper. The shopkeeper took a look at it and found that it was a prescription for calming the qi and nourishing the spleen, so he nodded. Although he didn't know what was special about this prescription, given Yin Huo's physical condition, there was nothing wrong with him taking these medicines.
"This ginseng..."
"They have it at home."
The head shopkeeper nodded, and when he saw her take out a purse to pay, he smiled and said, "You ordered this medicine. The medicine we give to our own doctor is cheaper here."
Manbao blinked and understood immediately, "Oh, so I can make extra money, right?"
Shopkeeper Zheng stroked his beard and laughed, "It's not for any extra money, it's just to make sure you don't work in vain."
Manbao's ability to cure Young Master Yin will also be of great benefit to their Jishiditang.
Manbao nodded, paid for the medicine, deducted the discount money, and then said happily to Baishan: "Come on, I'll treat you to some wontons."
"Is the money you deducted enough to buy three bowls of wontons?"
"It's not enough, but I'll add more money. I brought some."
Bai Shan said, "Forget it, I'll treat you. You just suffered for me the other day."
Manbao stuffed the money back into his pocket and nodded cheerfully, "Okay, I'll have the one with meat then."
Bai Shan: “…Okay.”
Bai Shan lowered the curtains to block out the sun and asked, "Is it just because Yin Huo's illness is so rare that you care so much about him?"
Manbao coughed lightly, glanced out the window, and then whispered to him, "Not entirely, but this is the main reason. Also, I feel he's quite pitiful, and his sisters are a bit too abominable. I've seen domineering ones, but I've never seen one so self-righteously domineering."
Manbao said, "Didn't the master say that we should be humble now? Their family is powerful, so we can't confront them head-on. So, we'll use soft tactics. I don't know if I can break the hard ones, but I'm soft, so I definitely can't break them."
"Aren't you afraid that the Yin family won't be happy with you treating Yin Huo?"
"The body belongs to Yin Huo, as long as Yin Huo is willing. As for medicine, there is always a way to take it. If the decoction doesn't work, I can make it into pills." Man Bao said, "But this is the worst option. After all, the effect of pills cannot compare to the decoction."
Bai Shan nodded slightly.
Today was a day off, and both of them had plenty of time. They first went to a wonton stall that was said to be delicious to eat a bowl of wontons, and then went to the bookstore.
At this moment, Yin Huo had just returned to the Yin family.
As soon as he entered the house, his fourth and fifth sisters came over and asked anxiously, "Little brother, where have you been? We went to your yard and couldn't find you, so we realized you were out."
Yin Huo pointed to the things held by the servants behind him and said, "I was bored at home, so I went out for a stroll and saw some nice fabrics. I thought my sisters might like them, so I bought some for you, and some for grandma."
Fourth Sister Yin frowned. "We can just let the servants do this kind of thing. Besides, we can ask the cloth shop owner to come over. Why do we need you to go out and choose in person? What if you catch a cold and get sick?"
Yin Huo didn't want to listen to her anymore, so he walked towards his yard, and ordered the servant beside him, "The bill hasn't been paid yet. Go ask the accountant to give the money to the clerk who followed."
The servant agreed.
Fourth Sister Yin was also used to it, and continued to chatter behind her, "...Grandma is very worried about you. My eldest and second sisters came to see you early this morning, but you weren't at home. They were very worried..."
"What about them?"
"They took Sixth Sister to the Yizhou Palace to attend the flower banquet. They were originally going to take you with them. Little brother, next time you go out, you must tell your family. You can't sneak out again. Look, you only took one servant with you this time. What if something goes wrong?"
After saying that, he turned back and scolded Changshou, "What's the point of keeping you? How did you take care of the young master? He went out without notifying the stables to prepare a cart and guards, and you dared to take the young master out alone? If anything happens to him, I will not forgive you."
Changshou nodded, his head bowed. Yin Huo had already folded the umbrella and handed it to Changshou, saying, "It's time for lunch. Go to the kitchen and bring it up to my room. I'll go pay my respects to Grandmother."
The next update will be around 8pm
