Chapter 32 A strong sense of familiarity
Shen's Medical Clinic is brightly lit.
Before Shen Yuning had time to calm down, she was surrounded by a group of patients.
She was so busy curing diseases and saving lives that she didn't even have time to feel sad.
Pei Yanzhou felt a little distressed. After hesitating for a moment, he stepped in.
He deliberately found a secluded corner, quietly hid in the dark, and observed Shen Yuning quietly.
What rose is without thorns? What woman is not selfish?
He had never expected Shen Yuning to be a kind-hearted and dignified person.
He had already accepted her dark side, but he didn't expect that Shen Yuning herself couldn't accept it?
His dark eyes scanned the bustling crowd like an eagle.
Fortunately, most of the people who came to the clinic tonight were well-dressed and well-mannered, and they did not look like they could not afford the medical fees.
Pei Yanzhou frowned and thought: When poor people get sick, they either have to rely on themselves to recover, or go up the mountain to dig some herbs and boil them. How can they afford to go to the clinic for treatment?
Even if they came, without money, Shen Yuning would not be able to treat them.
Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly, an old man stumbled in from outside the door.
"Doctor Shen, help me. I kowtow to you."
The old man knelt in front of Shen Yuning, holding a child with red cheeks in his arms. "I came from the next county and have been traveling all day."
"My youngest son had a high fever last night. He's tried every medicine, but there's no improvement. I asked the doctor, and he said he needs to take Niuhuang Pills... But Niuhuang Pills cost five taels of silver each, and I really can't afford them."
He trembled as he pulled out a dozen copper coins and cried, "Everyone says the herbs at Shen's Clinic are cheap. I wonder...I wonder if this money is enough for one pill?"
As soon as the words fell, there was a sigh from the crowd.
"Old man, what you want is Niuhuang Pills, not Hawthorn Cake. Can you afford a dozen copper coins?"
"Yes, even if the herbs at Shen's Clinic are cheap, one Niuhuang Pill costs at least four taels of silver. If you want to rob them, just say so!"
"Go aside quickly, don't disturb Doctor Shen's treatment..."
Pei Yanzhou smiled calmly. Niuhuang Pills were extremely precious, and the old man's request was indeed excessive.
The Shen family runs a clinic, not a charity.
Everyone was still criticizing the ragged old man, but only Shen Yuning focused her attention on the young child.
He was breathing weakly and looked like he was asleep, but in fact he was in a semi-comatose state.
She walked over quickly to take his pulse, and as soon as her jade finger touched him, her beautiful brows furrowed.
The high fever caused convulsions, coupled with a hereditary disease, so it is absolutely necessary to take Niuhuang Wan.
"Sizzle—"
She suddenly tore off a piece of the prescription, turned around, opened the medicine cabinet, took out a bezoar pill and stuffed it into the old man's hand.
He placed another bag of silver in front of the table and said, "The missing silver will be deducted from my monthly medical fee."
Shopkeeper Qian stamped his feet anxiously: "Miss! Why are you deducting money from your consultation fee again? How many patients have you helped this month?"
Shen Yuning remained calm, "Who said I was helping others? After they recovered from their illness, they all worked for the clinic."
She looked at the old man expressionlessly, "Old man, you owe the clinic four taels of silver. Remember to go to the mountains and pick a few baskets of tiger money grass after the spring comes."
"Send at least twenty baskets every year for five years!"
Her voice was cold and her face expressionless, but the old man burst into tears when he heard it.
Tiger money grass is everywhere in the mountains, how can it be compared with the precious ox gallstones?
Not to mention twenty baskets a year, even if it was forty baskets, it would be a good deal for him.
By doing this, Doctor Shen not only saved his son's life, but also saved him from the embarrassment of asking for medicine. He is truly a living god.
"Hey, hey, good! I will be careful. Thank you, Doctor Shen, for saving my life!"
Before he finished speaking, there was another cry from outside the door.
A woman staggered in, holding a bloody baby in her arms.
"Doctor Shen, help!"
"My son was hit on the head by a rock from the courtyard wall and is bleeding profusely. I went to other clinics, but they charged ten taels of silver just for bandaging and stitching the wound, and they didn't guarantee he would be saved."
The woman cried, "My husband can't raise enough money, and he said he's going to the palace to be a eunuch in exchange for money..."
"Please help me, Doctor Shen, first. Once my son is well, we will work like slaves to repay you!"
Seeing that the child's lips were pale and his breath was weak, Shen Yuning became anxious and took the baby without saying a word.
In a flash, the silver needle was inserted into his tiger's mouth.
"Ah Gui, boil two doses of Ma Fei San!"
"Qian Bo, go get some blood-clotting grass and mash it into juice."
"Laiwang, prepare the needles and mulberry bark thread, hurry up—"
The needle and thread flew quickly in Shen Yuning's hands. She frowned and lowered her head, not even looking at the woman during the whole process.
The woman wiped her tears and said, "Everyone said that Doctor Shen was serious, but I didn't expect him to be a living Bodhisattva with a cold face but a warm heart. My son today..."
"Shut up, don't make a sound!" Shen Yuning's attitude was cold, but her hands did not stop moving.
The child was seriously injured and she couldn't guarantee whether he could survive.
“Tsk—”
Pei Yanzhou hissed softly from out of sight and grumbled softly, "Too fierce!"
But for some reason, he felt extremely warm in his heart at this moment.
A pair of handsome almond-shaped eyes stared at the beautiful little face without blinking, with the corners of his lips curved upwards.
The woman stepped aside in tears, worried about her child's health and the fact that the strict Dr. Shen's consultation fee was higher than that of other doctors.
Sweat oozed out from Shen Yuning's forehead drop by drop, and was gently wiped away by the medical children with silk handkerchiefs.
After a long time, the child's complexion finally returned to normal and he was finally saved.
"This consultation fee and medicine fee..." the woman said timidly, worried that she would not be able to leave the clinic tonight.
"I won't charge you for today's consultation. Let the child's father help us pick out herbs for the next three months." Shen Yuning was still calm and collected, and was already neatly packing up the stitches.
"What...what?" The woman widened her eyes, unable to believe her ears.
Shen Yuning raised her eyebrows, "Why? Do you really want the child's father to enter the palace and become a eunuch?"
"Living Bodhisattva!" The woman's nose felt sore and she was about to kneel down in front of Shen Yuning again.
Shen Yuning stopped her, "Don't cry, don't kneel, I'm afraid of shortening my life, really."
"Pfft..." Pei Yanzhou, standing in the dark, couldn't help but laugh softly again, "Why is she so mean? Can't she be more gentle when treating patients?"
A very complicated emotion surged up from the bottom of his heart, so hot that he dared not look directly into her eyes.
What kind of woman is Shen Yuning?
She should be a vicious and profit-seeking person, so why is she so tolerant towards poor people?
Can people really change?
He was a bad person when he was a child, but suddenly changed his personality when he grew up?
Moreover, her medical skills are indeed good, and she is calm, introverted, low-key and modest.
He remembered that Ruyan often mocked Shen Yuning intentionally or unintentionally - she was pretentious and a piece of cake. She said that the way she held the silver needle was not to cure diseases, but to show off her proud figure. She also said that Shen Yuning was a real bad woman... Now it seems so ironic.
Pei Yanzhou stared at Shen Yuning who was not far away.
Is she delicate?
She is indeed very delicate! Her skin is as smooth as a baby's, her face is very charming, and her figure is even more enchanting.
Is it bad?
Bad! She was not kind to the people, even a little harsh.
However, Shen Yuning refused to accept medical fees from poor people, and even paid them money...
She was obviously beautiful, but she didn't have the slightest air of frivolity. Her charm was fully displayed, but her eyes were full of justice.
Such a female doctor, gentle yet strong, charming yet ruthless, the strong contrast is really hard to take your eyes off...
Pei Yanzhou felt a pain in his heart, and a strong sense of familiarity came over him.
Ning'er, Ana Shen, has he met her before?
