Chapter 1375 Finding My Little Sister
Xiao pondered, "Was it not a good idea for me to go and ask Doctor Zhao to take my pulse? This is halfway up the mountain, it's not very convenient for him to come over."
Shu Yu thought that Xiao's personality had really changed a lot.
"It's alright. The main problem is that I don't know where Doctor Zhao is right now. I'll have to go to the prefectural city to inquire. In that case, it wouldn't be good to take you around looking for him. Don't worry, Doctor Zhao has always regarded climbing mountains to collect herbs as a form of exercise. The mountain where Dongqing Temple is located isn't too high, so it's not difficult for him. Once I find him, I'll bring him over to take your pulse. If I can't find him, I'll go back to Jiangyuan County and call Zhao Xi over first."
Hearing this, Madam Xiao could only nod and say, "Alright then, thank you for your trouble."
Shu Yu didn't stay long and quickly led Ying Xi down the mountain and back to the prefectural city.
A few days ago, Dr. Zhao brought A-Ning to the prefectural city to gain experience, but we really don't know exactly where they went.
Where exactly should we look for it?
Yingxi sat on the carriage shaft, watching the bustling scene of people coming and going in the mansion, and turned to ask Shuyu, "Miss, where are we going next?"
Shu Yu thought for a moment, "Let's go to a nearby pharmacy or clinic."
She thought that Dr. Zhao had brought A-Ning out to treat patients. Although he had some medicinal herbs on him, they were not comprehensive, and he might have to go to a clinic to get medicine.
If an old man and a young boy were to team up, and someone were to pay attention, they should be able to find out where they are.
Sure enough, when Shu Yu went to the pharmacies and clinics to ask, a shop assistant at the second one said, "I've seen them before, I've seen them before. What's your relationship with that grandfather and grandson? They've gotten themselves into big trouble and are in big trouble."
Shu Yu's heart skipped a beat. "What terrible trouble have I gotten myself into?"
The shop assistant seemed rather gloating. "That old man is too arrogant. He accidentally saved a patient outside our clinic a while ago, and after the patient complimented him a few times, he actually thought his medical skills were superb. He even said that there are few doctors in the whole city who can compare to his. Hey, I've never seen such a shameless person. Look at him. If his medical skills were really that good, how come he can only be a traveling doctor outside, without even a stable clinic, and he's dressed in rags. It's obvious that he hasn't made any money."
Shu Yu frowned. It was Zhao Laoda's freedom to be an itinerant doctor. If he wanted a stable place to practice his medical skills, he could even go to the Imperial Hospital in the capital.
As for his clothes, Dr. Zhao really didn't care much about them.
He often went up the mountain to collect herbs and liked to wear simple and comfortable coarse linen clothes, which were cheap and refreshing. Even if they were cut or scratched by branches and stones, he didn't feel too bad.
With his attire, Ah Ning naturally followed suit.
Shu Yu could imagine the two of them standing at the door looking like an old man and a young beggar.
The shopkeeper continued, "That old man also claimed that he specializes in treating difficult and complicated diseases, and that he has seen many strange illnesses over the years, telling everyone to come to him if they need anything. Well, this caused quite a stir, as the servants of the Tan family overheard it and immediately took the old man and the young girl away."
"Servants of the Tan family? Which family is the Tan family? What do they do?"
"The Tan family is a wealthy family that owns a cloth shop in our prefecture. The Tan family has a third master who is an official in the capital. How dare we ordinary people offend them? We can't afford to mess with them. The eldest son of the Tan family has been seriously ill for almost two years, and no doctor has been able to cure him. Didn't that old man say he was quite skilled? So the Tan family took him away to treat his illness."
