Chapter 203 The Rabbit Grieves for the Fox



Qin Yuan also looked at Xiao Dong.

In his previous life, no one knew how Xiao Dong had persuaded Physician Li to get into the Imperial Medical Academy.

Xiao Dong was glared at by Doctor Li, and immediately waved his hand and shook his head, saying, "I'm not going."

"Hmm," Doctor Li's expression softened, and he said kindly, "You should follow your master and learn well. He will teach you all his secret skills, and you will inherit his Renhetang in the future."

This is an attempt to use Renhetang as bait to prevent Xiaodong from going to the Imperial Hospital.

Qin Yuan: "..."

She couldn't interfere in the lawsuit between the master and apprentice.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "How about I mention in my memorial that Renhetang presented this formula? Only when this formula is combined with my incense formula will it have a miraculous effect."

Qin Yuan didn't think it was an exaggeration to say that it had "miraculous effects".

Doctor Li shook his head and said, "No, no, I don't trust those scoundrels in the Imperial Hospital. If you present your prescription and claim it has miraculous effects, wouldn't that be a slap in their face? Who knows what excuse they might use to slander your prescription later, saying you have ulterior motives and are just making empty boasts? You won't be able to explain yourself then. The Imperial Hospital is full of factions, but when it comes to dealing with outsiders, they're all united."

Meng Han: "..."

Meng Han stopped.

Physician Li said happily, "Once we leave the manor, we'll know how the Marquis's family will thank you. After that successful business, we won't be able to make a living for eight years."

Da Dong nodded, "Master, you are worried."

Life and death now hang in the balance between Meng Hanlun's every thought.

Da Dong then perked up.

"Oh dear," Doctor Li said dejectedly, "the army is a small household when it comes to medicine."

Meng Han's lips curled slightly.

Doctor Li glanced at you sideways and said, "Does he mean it can break?"

With that matter sure enough, Meng Han relaxed considerably and casually mentioned, "Was Lord Gu a little unwell the other day?"

The Marquis said, "For now, that's all we can do. The medicines in the army are all from unknown sources. Cuiming said that it's possible to make a quick purchase, but I've used that wound medicine before, and it's indeed much worse than the medicine commonly used in the army. So I plan to buy some for special use only, and I'll continue to purchase the rest as usual."

"Um."

"That brat of a man, all he thinks about all day is that."

To speak so confidently, one must have learned from past mistakes.

The ointment that Cuiming used was a family recipe passed down through generations in the Chen family.

Li Langzhong: "..."

Da Dong made a face and said, "Why do you always bring up money when you're clearly worried about your senior sister and brother-in-law?"

Doctor Li laughed and said, "Alright, your Renhetang is already big and has a lot of manpower, so that's enough for you. He gave the prescription and found a way, so you and Da Dong will take 20%."

I'm still alive.

Seeing that it was early, and worried that Physician Liu would start nagging again, the Marquis said, "Master, you should go back to Wutong Garden first."

Meng Han said, "That would be too unfair to Master and Renhetang."

Doctor Li nodded.

The Marquis hurried towards Wutong Garden, and Da Dong kept watching your back.

When Meng Han handed over the business to Renhetang, it was equivalent to handing over the formula to Renhetang.

As soon as the Marquis left the house, he saw Hongye and Qin Yuan sitting in the inner room, using an abacus and flipping through account books.

Da Dong said seriously, "Master, did he also say that he would leave Renhetang to you? If he can continue to be as lazy as he was in the future, he won't be as good as you as he was as a medicine apprentice. When you are young, Renhetang will still be so poor. He said that you will definitely be able to find a medicine apprentice."

Doctor Li nodded, "Alright."

“How can that be?” the Marquis retorted. “You only need 20%. The wound medicine will increase the army’s casualties. If Cuiming sees that disadvantage, she will also give in. Besides, you are worried about giving the Chen family’s prescription to others. If your master agrees, you will dare to take his prescription.”

What kind of study is this? In those days, because there were fewer things to do, I had time to tinker with it.

Da Dong was sullen and said, "It's a pity that I have to leave the manor soon. I don't know when I'll be able to spend time with my senior sister like that again."

Da Dong quickly shook Li Langzhong's sleeve.

Hongmian ran off quickly, hurriedly lifted the curtain for you, and announced, "Madam has returned."

Hongmian whispered, "Madam, Meng Han has moved back."

Li Langzhong understood that Liu Taiyi had been influenced by the pillow talk and intended to favor Renhetang, which was why he came up with that reason.

The Marquis laughed and said, "Meng Han is a simpleton. He can cure smallpox, so he will naturally offer a generous reward. You also asked Cui Ming for a favor. The wound medicine used in the army recently needs to be purchased from Renhetang."

Lord Gu is risking his life to harm people, which is tantamount to not having given his life up yet.

Enraged, Physician Li took off his shoes and chased after Da Dong, beating him.

Doctor Li said, “As a doctor, you always have to suffer hardships to treat patients and save lives. You’re used to it. The most important thing is to live peacefully. Besides, as long as the Marquis’s family benefits, Cuiming will always lose you. You got a thousand taels of silver when you came, and you’ll get that amount after you leave. Consider it as you selling your prescription.”

The implication is that you are asking a question you already know the answer to, and that it's a matter of whether opening or closing is good or bad.

Doctor Li's expression was simple.

Da Dong said, "Next time this fish is usually bad, could you have someone make another serving, Senior Sister?"

"What happened?"

Hongye quickly followed and said loudly, "Cuiming had Shiba bring back a clothes chest and a book chest, so you and Qin Yuan can move into the inner room."

Meng Han laughed and said, "You know exactly what Cui Ming is planning."

"Madam is back."

Hongye said, "Madam, Menghan is reading in the study."

"You big glutton, you can do it."

As soon as Meng Han stepped onto the veranda, he saw Hong Mian winking at him.

Doctor Li spat and said, "Worry is worry, money is money. What does he know? Even brothers have to keep clear accounts. We, master and disciple, never even settled accounts before."

Doctor Li asked, "What's wrong?"

Da Dong pursed his lips as if he had spoken.

The Marquis added, "The main kitchen outside your courtyard has prepared some Suzhou-style dishes; I'll have someone bring them to you later."

She really couldn't understand why, despite being taught by Doctor Li, Xiao Dong still managed to pass the Imperial Medical Academy exam in his previous life and then go to Yuhang County.

Doctor Li, oblivious to Qin Yuan's expression, pondered for a while before saying, "Why not just say in the memorial that we obtained this prescription, but since it proved useless after verification, combining it with what he did forms a preventative measure that might be useful? Officials reading the official gazettes in various places can see it, and if someone keeps it in reserve, it could save lives at any time."

Doctor Li smiled and said, "He took some time this morning to go to the backyard to find Master Gu, saying he wanted to teach me Tai Chi and the Four Pieces of Brocade. Master Gu's health needs conditioning; he used to come here often."

Da Dong disappeared in a flash.

Li Langzhong, however, felt a sense of shared sorrow and said to Da Dong, "Let him see, isn't Lord Gu a cautionary tale?"

Qin Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Master, please grant my request. You never received a share of Renhetang before."

Having just agreed to leave Renhetang to Dadong, the eldest son now intends to give a portion of Renhetang to Menghan.

Both Hongye and Qin Yuan have changed their names.

Meng Han responded and left the inner room to change his clothes.
