Chapter 17 Song Shiting, that idiot



Why did Song Shiting, that idiot, buy so many things all at once?

Bai Luomei couldn't help but tug at Huang Feixue next to her.

Huang Feixue saw it too, and frowned, saying, "Are they that close? They actually came here together to watch the acrobatics."

Bai Luomei pouted and said, "I think Ruan Qingling has a scheme."

Huang Feixue asked, "What conspiracy?"

Bai Luomei: "I don't know, let's take a look."

Ruan Qingling felt that there was really nothing to entertain at this time; even a random monkey show could attract a large crowd to watch.

The gong rang out with a "dong dong dong" sound.

The man holding the drumsticks said, "Tooth extraction! Tooth extraction! Yellow Flying Bee's tooth extraction is airtight! Anyone who needs a tooth extraction can come over here. Tooth extraction is free."

He didn't mention that buying medicine would cost money.

In such impoverished and rudimentary places, medical care is generally inadequate.

Many people simply can't afford to go to a clinic to get their teeth treated, or they go directly to the city to get it done.

This created an opportunity for people to make money by traveling around.

An elderly man carried a small stool and stood in a long queue, waiting to go up.

Ruan Qingling watched the jumping monkey, finding it amusing, but this kind of tooth extraction... painless tooth extraction, it's all nonsense.

At that time, people's awareness was not high, and they had no idea how they operated.

"Master Huang, please pull this tooth out quickly. It hurts so much, it hurts every time I eat, it's so painful."

An elderly man in his early fifties walked over, covering his mouth as he spoke.

Huang Feifeng said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it for you. The tooth will fall out in three to five minutes, without pain or bleeding."

Upon hearing this, Ruan Qingling frowned even more deeply.

Ya Ya seemed to really enjoy watching the excitement; her eyes followed the jumping monkey, and she even started gesturing wildly with her hands.

Song Shiting could sense his daughter's happiness.

Are you so happy just to see a monkey?

It seems I should take her out more often in the future.

Looking down, I saw Ruan Qingling with her brows furrowed and her eyes fixed on the person having their tooth pulled.

Only Ruan Qingling knew that these so-called medicinal powders were actually arsenic powder.

If not controlled properly, people can die.

Although the tooth dies and falls out in three to five minutes, the adjacent teeth will soon become loose, and eventually the teeth next to it will also fall out prematurely.

The herbs they sell are a low-quality maintenance to alleviate the damage to the healthy teeth next to this tooth caused by arsenic powder.

Master Huang moved with remarkable speed and efficiency, quickly removing a tooth, holding it up with pliers, and proclaiming to everyone, "See that? My Huang Feifeng tooth extraction is airtight! Our family's miraculous painless tooth extraction method lies in our bone-removing powder. You can ask this uncle if it doesn't hurt."

The old man touched his face and nodded happily: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt, it really doesn't hurt."

There was no bleeding.

Others were even more eager to have their bad teeth pulled immediately.

Ruan Qingling frowned, wanting to remind these people not to have their teeth pulled, but she knew it would be futile for her to say such things now.

If medical standards don't keep up and people's awareness doesn't improve, all her talk will be ineffective.

She pursed her lips.

Just as she was about to turn around, Bai Luomei suddenly turned to Song Shiting and said, "Brother Song, you had a toothache a few days ago. It's so rare to run into you in town. Hurry up and have them take a look at your teeth and pull them out. I heard that it won't hurt after it's pulled out."

Song Shiting was tempted because he had a wisdom tooth that frequently malfunctioned.

He had long harbored the desire to remove it.

Before Bai Luomei spoke, he also wanted to give it a try.

"Um."

Ruan Qingling thought she had misheard; she actually heard Song Shiting respond!

For some reason, Ruan Qingling glanced at Song Shiting.

Song Shiting shoved Ya Ya into her hands: "I'll go take a look."

When Ruan Qingling picked up Ya Ya, she also grabbed his sleeve.

Why are you getting involved?

Song Shiting: "I have a wisdom tooth that I've always wanted to have pulled."

Ruan Qingling: "If you want to have a tooth pulled, go to a reputable hospital."

Bai Luomei immediately said, "Are you trying to harm Brother Song? Only those who have experienced toothache know how terrible it is." She spoke as if she herself had suffered from toothache, making it sound very plausible.

Ruan Qingling said to Song Shiting, "If you need to have your teeth pulled, you can go to a regular hospital. Just don't go to these people. They'll ruin your teeth."

Those who usually seek out itinerant doctors are mostly elderly people who are reluctant to spend money.

Spend a penny or two to buy some of their herbs, and then promote them.

You won't have to pay for tooth extraction.

But ultimately, it's also helping these people make money.

Song Shiting frowned slightly.

Huang Feixue said, "Actually, no matter what method you use, as long as it can solve the problem you want to solve, it doesn't necessarily have to be done in the hospital."

Ruan Qingling glared at Song Shiting: "Anyway, I'm telling you, you can't have your tooth pulled here. Think about it yourself, applying a little medicine and it falls out painlessly, is that some kind of miracle drug? Do you know what's inside it that no one knows about?"

"With them being so capable, what need is there for hospitals?"

Song Shiting only allowed Ruan Qingling to act so recklessly because she had given birth to Ya Ya.

She disapproved of Ruan Qingling's self-righteousness and said, "Third Brother, I think you can give it a try. Otherwise, when your toothache starts, you'll be the one suffering, and some people won't care about you."

These words were a sarcastic remark about Ruan Qingling, and also a reminder to Song Shiting that Ruan Qingling wasn't genuinely looking out for him.

A middle-aged man who overheard their conversation said, "This Dr. Huang is really skilled. He can pull teeth without any pain. I had mine pulled when they came two months ago."

Ruan Qingling asked, "Which tooth did you have pulled?"

The man immediately opened his mouth.

Ruan Qingling frowned at the sight of his yellow and black teeth.

The man said, "Thank goodness I had my tooth pulled, otherwise it would have been in pain every day, it would have been killing me."

Ruan Qingling: "Now shake it with your hand. Do the two teeth next to your missing tooth feel loose?"

After hearing that, the guy put his hand in his mouth and waved it.

He said, "Hmm, it really is a bit loose!"

Ruan Qingling: "Just you wait, it's only a little loose now, it will get even looser in a while, I reckon in a year or two, the two teeth next to it will fall out too."

The older man exclaimed in surprise, "Really?"

Ruan Qingling: "Whether it will happen or not, you'll just have to wait and see."

She raised an eyebrow at Song Shiting: "When you need to see a doctor, you should go to a regular hospital. Going to a quack might make you think you're powerful for a while, but you won't be able to find anyone when you have a problem tomorrow. Let's go."

After watching her finish speaking, Song Shiting turned and left, and finally silently followed her.

Bai Luomei stomped her feet in anger.

Why does Song Shiting listen to that woman so much?

Huang Feixue frowned and said, "I really didn't expect that Song Shiting, such a man, would be afraid of Ruan Qingling?"
