Chapter 23 It is an incurable disease

Gan Fanren and his friends were still wearing dirty clothes, and there was still black mud on their faces.

So as soon as they entered the clinic, they were chased out as beggars.

Gan Fanren had no choice but to return to the inn.

After changing his appearance, he entered the clinic again.

His gentle and refined appearance was completely different from the patients in the clinic.

As soon as he entered the clinic, he attracted a lot of attention.

"This little brother, I want to ask a doctor to help the elders in my family take a look at the body. I wonder if it is convenient."

The apprentice in the clinic looked Gan Fanren up and down.

Seeing that Gan Fanren was only wearing ordinary cloth clothes, he said disdainfully.

"It is convenient, but the price is not cheap. I wonder if you can afford it?"

He was full of disdain.

Li Zhi stood up dissatisfied, straightened his chest, and his copper-bell-like eyes reflected a hint of ferocity. Seeing

Li Zhi's appearance, the apprentice shrank back in fear, and after realizing that this was his territory, he immediately shouted loudly.

"What are you doing? Are you still going to fight?"

"I tell you, this is a clinic, not a place for you to act wild!"

"Do you know that our clinic is protected by General Sun? If you dare to make trouble here, I think you will live a miserable life."

It was this General Sun again.

Gan Fanren lowered his eyes when he heard this name.

He held Li Zhi down: "Sorry, we are not here to cause trouble, we just want to ask a doctor to treat the elders in our family."

"My brother is born with supernatural powers, and he doesn't mean to scare people."

The apprentice glanced at Li Zhi and snorted: "Even if you dare, you won't."

He put his hands in his sleeves, looked at him constantly, and said: "Ten taels of silver."

"Ten taels!?"

Li Zhi was shocked.

He could only earn a hundred coins a day as a laborer, which was three taels of silver a month. After spending on food and drink, he could only save one tael of silver a month.

If it was the New Year, he would have to buy some new clothes and some things. He might not be able to save ten taels of silver in a year.

Ten taels of silver was too much.

He was penniless during this escape. If he hadn't met the Gan family by chance, he wouldn't even have enough to eat.

How could he have the nerve to ask the Gan family to help him pay the ten taels of silver?

Moreover, the ten taels of silver was only the fee for going to the temple. He would need to pay extra money for medical treatment and medicine.

Ten taels of silver was far from enough.

If his mother was in poor health, the money would be spent. If she was fine, wouldn't it be a waste of money?

Li Zhi looked at Gan Fanren hesitantly.

"Brother, why don't we just forget it? I think my mother doesn't have any other problems except that she's a little depressed."

"Money is only a thing outside of one's body. How can you delay my mother's health for ten taels of silver?"

In Gan Fanren's opinion, Li Zhi's value far exceeds ten taels of silver.

He has money in his hand, so he is naturally not polite.

"Then trouble the little brother to arrange a doctor for me."

The apprentice was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Gan Fanren, a commoner, could afford ten taels of silver.

"Wait."

Not long after, an old doctor with a silver beard came out tremblingly, carrying a medicine box on his back.

Li Zhi looked at the old doctor with suspicion.

"This..."

Can this old doctor do it?

Don't worry, he fell down before he could see my mother.

Li Zhi was hesitant in his heart, but he didn't speak out his doubts.

Although his mind was simple, it was not stupid. He

dared not say this.

The old man introduced with a smile: "I am Su Baishou. Although I am a little old, my medical skills are still good. If you don't mind, I will go with you."

The money was spent, of course he didn't mind.

Seeing that Su Baishou walked shakily, Li Zhi was worried that he would fall, so he simply carried him on his back.

Gan Fanren looked at the apprentice just now and said lightly: "Little brother, you have to work hard, otherwise you will always think that ten taels of silver are out of your reach."

The apprentice was stunned and blushed.

Seeing that Gan Fanren was dressed in ordinary clothes and did not look like a rich man, he did have a contemptuous idea.

Unexpectedly, he was lectured by Gan Fanren.

When he said that the medical fee was very expensive, it had already proved that he was poor.

Words are the basis of determination, and actions come first.

What he did just now was really embarrassing.

"Thank you for your advice."

He bowed and became much more respectful to Gan Fanren.

He was also more patient when facing other patients.

When he walked out of the clinic, it started to rain outside again.

There was a panic on the street.

"It's raining, it's raining again."

"Hurry! Put away all the valuables."

Although Tongmen Pass was prosperous, it was also severely affected by the flood.

The flood brought psychological shadows to many people.

Gan Fanren felt a little heavy. Tian'er

was not by his side, he could not hear Tian'er's voice, and didn't know whether this rain would bring disaster.

But he felt a little uneasy.

Everything should be fine...

Inside the inn, the old lady touched the furnishings in the room with a distressed look.

"This inn is too expensive. It costs one hundred coins to stay for one night. We might as well find a broken temple to make do with."

Hui Niang would have thought so in the past.

But after Wang Li's night visit to Gan's house and the encounter with the bandits, Hui Niang no longer thought so.

"Although this inn is more expensive, it is relatively safe. The money is worth it."

For the convenience of living, Hui Niang, the old lady and Gan Tian lived in the same room.

The two sons lived next door with Li Zhi and Gan Fanren.

Four men lived in one room, which was a bit crowded, but it could save some money.

Hui Niang couldn't stay idle. As soon as she entered the inn, she cleaned the room from inside to outside.

She also changed the bedding.

The old lady touched the bedding produced by the system and couldn't help but admire it.

"This quilt is so comfortable."

"It's worth my life to sleep on such a quilt."

Although they were traveling with Li Zhi's family, Li Zhi had brought some luggage with him, so Hui Niang didn't take out the quilt.

Now she and the old lady lived in the same room, and she didn't want to hide her daughter's incompetence, so she took out the quilt.

"No, Li Zhi is a filial and capable child, and your good days are ahead."

"If you like it, I'll give you this quilt."

"When we get to the capital, I'll give you two more."

The old lady waved her hand hurriedly: "No, no."

She said no, but the corners of her mouth were already grinning to the back of her ears.

The old lady patted Gan Tian gently, teased Gan Tian, ​​and laughed.

When the doctor came, the old lady's mouth was still open.

When she heard that it was a doctor, the old lady's face changed immediately.

"I know my own body condition, why spend this money?"

"I don't need to see a doctor, go, go."

Su Baishou was happy when he heard it.

"I don't think it's good, but I won't refund the ten taels of silver for the consultation fee."

"Ten taels of silver?"

The old lady grinned, and suddenly felt pain all over her body.

This prodigal child, the old lady glared at Li Zhi angrily.
