The reason is that Qianxing woke up!
In fact, she had woken up intermittently over the past few days, but not for long, and her consciousness was not very clear. She would soon drift back to sleep.
When Shen Qiyin arrived today, she was awake, her eyes bright, unlike her usual drowsy state.
She thanked her, her voice low and hoarse: "Thank you, miracle doctor."
"No need." She withdrew her hand from taking her pulse and said seriously, "I already received a consultation fee."
"Forehead……"
Qianxing pursed his lips and nodded blankly.
Shen Qiyin helped her up and undid her clothes to prepare to change her dressing.
Qianxing turned his head to the other side, his entire ear turning red.
Shen Qiyin: "..."
Her actions made her seem like a scoundrel harassing a respectable woman.
Suddenly remembering something, she let go of Qianxing's clothes and took out a small bottle from the medicine box.
Her slender, pale fingers gently pinched Qianxing's chin. She turned her face and said in a calm tone, "Open your mouth."
Qianxing opened his mouth instinctively.
A small pill was dropped into his mouth.
She swallowed it whole without even asking what it was.
Shen Qiyin liked patients who were quiet and obedient, so she thoughtfully explained, "This medicine can help relieve your pain."
"Thanks."
"Ten taels per piece."
"..." Is it too late to vomit it out now?
It shouldn't have dissolved yet, right?
"If you try to force me to buy something, I won't pay you."
Qianxing's "I'd rather die than give you money" attitude made Shen Qiyin sense a kindred spirit in him. She thought to herself, "Am I also like this, willing to risk my life for money?"
I don't think so.
Although Qianxing complained about the high cost of the medicine at the moment, when Shen Qiyin changed her dressing and she watched Shen Qiyin tear the gauze stuck to her flesh, she felt that it didn't hurt as much, and she realized that the high cost was justified.
With this, wouldn't it be much more convenient for them to go out on missions in the future?
Qianxing secretly peeked into Shen Qiyin's medicine box several times. Seeing that she had changed her own medicine and was about to leave, Qianxing quickly asked, "I wonder how much medicine the divine doctor still has?"
"Six." These things are hard to make; she only managed to make seven in total.
"I'll take them all!" Qianxing, completely different from his previous stingy demeanor, waved his hand generously, exclaiming with boundless generosity, "Sixty taels! Go ask our master for them!"
"..."
The money offered to her was refused by Shen Qiyin, who was acting out of character: "Not for sale."
"Why?!"
"Every medicine has its side effects..."
"I'm not afraid!"
"This medicine is extremely toxic."
"No, I don't want it."
Good girl.
Shen Xiyin found it funny.
She wasn't teasing Qianxing; this medicine was indeed extraordinary.
My mentor had specifically instructed me not to use this on patients unless absolutely necessary.
When necessary, the dosage must be precise, otherwise serious problems may occur.
After changing Qianxing's medicine, Shen Qiyin left Qiying Pavilion and did not return to Guangrentang. Instead, she turned into a hutong (alleyway) facing the street.
I was just trying my luck, and to my surprise, I actually saw the same little beggar from last time there.
The other person ran over as soon as they saw her.
Shen Qiyin asked him bluntly, "Do you remember the person who came after you with you when you stole Shen Guangzong's money pouch last time?"
Sturnan nodded: "I remember."
"I have something I'd like you to deliver to him for me."
"But I must warn you, he might recognize you as the little thief who stole the money that day. If you're worried about getting into trouble, just pretend you never saw me today."
The little beggar raised his chin defiantly and said, "You underestimate me. I have my own way of getting this done. Just hand over the item to me."
"Alright." Shen Qiyin took out a piece of paper that she had sealed in her purse before leaving and handed it to him, saying, "His name is Chen Shi, and he lives at the Hongyun Inn on West Street."
"Leave it to me!" Si Tu Nan packed his things away, and before leaving, he didn't forget to say to Shen Qi Yin, "We agreed last time that this would be free, but next time you'll have to pay."
Shen Qiyin nodded, thinking to herself, "I won't look for you next time."
On her way back to Guangrentang, seeing that it was still early, she decided to go to Qingyin Pavilion to buy a flute for Rendong.
A better flute than the one that Honeysuckle uses now.
She thought that the problem with the flute might be that the way the honeysuckle played the tune that day was "wailing and howling".
Perhaps if we used a better flute, it wouldn't sound so bad?
With such "extravagant hope," Shen Qiyin went to Qingyin Pavilion with great anticipation. However, on her way back, the weather suddenly changed, dark clouds gathered, and it rained all day.
She didn't bring an umbrella and got soaked to the bone.
Fortunately, a kind young man gave her his umbrella, and she was able to run back to Guangrentang as the rain subsided a little.
When she got back, she felt cold all over.
Dazhuang brewed her a bowl of ginger tea to warm her up, and then asked Chunsheng to go to the music hall to call Rendong back so she could accompany her home.
She developed a high fever that night.
Fortunately, Dazhuang was prepared in advance and had prepared the medicine in advance. It was all decocted and only needed to be warmed up before use.
After taking the medicine and sweating it out, the fever subsided.
The next morning, Shen Qiyin found that her throat was sore, and even swallowing saliva felt like swallowing needles, causing her to wince in pain.
When I went to Zhuijintang to pay my respects to Madam Shen, I was a little late, as all the living members of the Shen family had already arrived.
Not many.
Madam Shen looked delighted and praised Shen Guangzong highly.
