When Si Jinxing arrived at Baifulou, he saw a carriage hurriedly passing by the door.
She didn't care much and just walked quickly into the room she had booked.
She walked to the window and could just see the street below.
She glanced down casually and found another carriage passing by in a hurry, as if it was on some urgent matter.
Soon, there was a knock on the door.
Si Jinxing and Qingchan looked at each other and nodded.
Qingchan, who was now disguised as a man, stepped forward and opened the door.
She looked at the old man standing outside the door and asked expressionlessly:
"What is it?"
The old man opposite saw that it was a young servant who opened the door. With a smile on his face, he asked, "Is Mr. Jin Ning here?"
Qing Chan said coldly, "My young master doesn't see outsiders, so you'd better leave."
The old man hurriedly said respectfully, "Please, young man, please pass on the message. I sent you a visiting card yesterday. Whether you want money or fame, my master can help you."
Qingchan frowned and said:
"Old man, don't you understand? My master doesn't see guests.
There are so many people submitting notices every day, but our husband has never seen many of them.
As for fame and fortune, my husband doesn't care about them at all."
After she finished speaking, she closed the door with a "bang"!
Si Jinxing couldn't help but smile. When Qingchan became willful, she was somewhat similar to that girl Luzhu.
Qing Chan walked closer and asked in a low voice, "Princess, since the old man is here, why are you turning him away?"
Si Jinxing explained softly:
“Although the old man is easy to fool, his son is a shrewd one.
"Master Gu clearly said that Mr. Jin Ning has a strange temper and doesn't want the world to know about it, but when they come, I open the door wide. Isn't that a rip-off?"
Qing Chan nodded, this way they could relax their vigilance.
Just as the master and servant in the room expected.
After hearing the old servant's report, the village head in the carriage downstairs felt less worried. This miracle doctor was indeed a person with a strange personality.
He raised his eyes and glanced towards the second floor, saying:
"Doctor Gu said that although he doesn't care about fame and fortune, he is a person who loves money. If you go again, money will not be a problem."
The old man then went upstairs and knocked on Si Jinxing's door.
When Qing Chan saw this person coming again, his face turned even worse, and he said in a cold tone:
"Old sir, I have just made it very clear to you that my master is not seeing patients. You should go back."
The old man was a good-tempered man. He didn't care how bad Qingchan's tone was. He just smiled and asked:
"My old master has been suffering from severe abdominal pain for several years. If Mr. Jin Ning can alleviate the pain a little, the consultation fee will be generous.
Please let the young man pass on the message."
As he spoke, he stuffed a silver ingot into Qingchan's hand.
Qing Chan coughed lightly, pretending to be overjoyed at the sight of money, and said, "
The old man is old and not as good as the young ones. I think my husband can understand. In this case, you will wait here for a while."
The old man bowed hurriedly.
Si Jinxing picked up the silver ingot and said with a smile, "This family is really generous. They just gave me ten taels!"
She pondered for a moment and said, "Since he's so rich, then of course I should give him a favor and ask the person outside to come in and talk."
Qingchan opened the door and said:
"Old sir, I had to spend a lot of time to persuade my husband to agree to this.
You will go in later and be extremely careful with your words and actions. If you want to see a doctor, don’t underestimate the price.”
The old man bowed and said, "Thank you for your advice, young man."
When he entered the room, he smelled the bitter scent of medicinal herbs.
He bowed and said, "Greetings, sir."
Si Jinxing sat at the desk and wrote down a few prescriptions for strengthening the body. It took him a while to raise his eyelids.
Only then did I realize that the old man was the old man who opened the door of the village head's house.
She asked in a hoarse voice:
"How did your family find out where I am?"
The old man was slightly stunned when he heard this. Although this gentleman looked young, he was indeed not easy to get along with.
He was moved and replied:
"It's quite a coincidence, actually. I happened to hear your name on the street a few days ago, and yesterday I took the liberty of sending you a visiting card. I hope you can see me."
Si Jinxing also nodded, wrote and drew on the paper, and asked, "What is your old man's illness?"
When the old man heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"My grandfather suffers from severe abdominal pain from time to time. He has consulted many doctors, but they can only temporarily relieve the pain but cannot cure it.
Yesterday, the illness came back again, and it was really tormenting."
Si Jinxing asked without even looking up, "Did you experience dizziness, vomiting, or fever when the illness started?"
The old man shook his head and said, "I have never had these symptoms."
This time, Si Jinxing looked up at the old man and said:
"If I'm not mistaken, this disease is called chronic appendicitis, and I can cure it.
But you may have heard that my consultation fee is higher."
When the old man heard this, he felt that this young man was indeed better than the previous doctors. Those doctors took the patient's pulse and asked questions for a long time, but they only prescribed some painkillers and could not tell what the disease was.
He immediately complimented:
"Young Master, your medical skills are excellent. My old grandfather's illness can be cured!
The consultation fee is of course not a problem, it’s whatever you say, sir.”
After he finished speaking, he saw the young man in front of the desk slowly stretched out a finger.
He wanted to say one hundred taels, but then he remembered that the young master's consultation fee was very high, so he smiled and said:
"One thousand taels? Young Master, your medical skills are excellent, so this consultation fee is well deserved."
