Chapter 81: A Prescription That Can Save the World
Ye Chutang looked at the uneasy Qin Muyun and said with a smile: "Mr. Qin, don't be nervous. It is very common for men and women to get married."
After saying that, she picked up the teapot and poured Qin Muyun a cup of tea.
"Thanks."
Qin Muyun picked up the teacup and poured it into his mouth.
"Oh, it's hot!"
Before Ye Chutang could finish his words to stop him, Qin Muyun was scalded and spat out all the tea on the ground.
He was almost killed by his own stupidity and wished he could find a hole to crawl into.
"Miss Ye, excuse me for making fun of you. I'm not usually like this."
Ye Chutang looked at the ice basin in the corner, where there were still some ice cubes that had not melted yet.
She knocked off a small piece, scooped it up in a cup and handed it to Qin Muyun.
"Hold it in your mouth, it can relieve the burning pain caused by the burn."
Qin Muyun obediently held the ice cube in his mouth.
The burning sensation in my mouth has eased a lot, but it’s a little inconvenient to speak.
"I know I'm not worthy of Miss Ye, but I heard that Miss Ye decides her own marriage, so I still want to ask shamelessly, what kind of man does Miss Ye like?"
He held an ice cube in his mouth, his words were unclear, and he spoke very slowly.
After Ye Chutang listened patiently, he picked up the hot tea and took a sip.
"For me, getting married means spending my life with the person I love. I only accept a man who belongs to me physically and mentally, and we want to be together for life."
As for the last sentence, very few men can do it, except for those from poor families who have difficulty getting married.
Feudal society has endowed men with the privilege of having women on both sides, and only a fool would throw it away.
Qin Muyun spit out the ice in his mouth and said anxiously: "We have a family rule in our Qin family that no women are allowed before marriage. I can also love only one person in my life and never betray him."
He did not think having three wives and four concubines was a good thing; instead, he felt it was a burden.
If he could be with the person he loves, he would be so happy that he would not let her down.
Ye Chutang thought that a playboy like Qin Muyun would have had a beautiful wife long ago, but she didn't expect that he was actually a pure and innocent young man.
"Mr. Qin, although you meet the objective conditions, you are not my type."
"What kind of man does Miss Ye like?"
"A great hero like King Chen who is open-minded and serves his country and his people."
Of course, this was just a casual remark.
Ye Chutang never thought of setting any threshold for his other half. As long as he met someone he liked, that was enough.
When Qin Muyun heard her words, his eyes dimmed.
Even though he is extremely talented and has a gift for divination, he can only be a playboy in his life and can never be a hero!
"Miss Ye, excuse me for disturbing you."
Ye Chutang looked at Qin Muyun who had a gloomy face.
"Mr. Qin, wait a minute, I haven't finished what I want to say."
Qin Muyun, who was about to get up and leave, sat down again, his body straight, like a child listening to a lecture.
"Miss Ye, please speak."
"People are divided into groups. The fact that Young Master Qin can be on good terms with Prince Chen shows that you are definitely not a lazy playboy. You must have your own ideals and ambitions. You shouldn't be confined to the capital and live your life in a muddle. Family is important, but the world outside is also big. Go and see it."
At this moment, Ye Chutang didn't know that because of her words, Qin Muyun would go down in history!
Qin Muyun looked at Ye Chutang with an uneasy mood.
"Thank you Miss Ye for your advice. I will consider it carefully. Goodbye."
After saying that, he stood up and left.
After Ye Chutang dealt with Taohua, he returned to the crowd and continued talking.
Qin Muyun walked out of the Poetry Chanting Tower and looked back.
A woman like this deserves someone better.
***
Around noon.
The emperor issued an edict of repentance.
The imperial edict was hung at the city gate, together with the imperial edict for catching the "ghost thief".
Countless people stopped to watch, blocking the city gate.
"The Emperor said he would no longer practice Taoism to seek immortality. This is really cause for celebration!"
"I didn't expect the emperor to admit his mistake. The 'blood letter of the people' is still useful."
"Haven't you heard that the flood in Jiangnan was serious, with tens of thousands of people killed and injured? If you don't admit your mistakes, your country will be destroyed!"
"Hush, don't say that, or you'll end up in jail."
"With so many people dying in Jiangnan, will there be a plague? Should we stock up on some medicinal herbs?"
"I almost forgot, my wife told me to buy some medicine..."
As word of the possible plague spread, people rushed to buy plague-repellent powder.
At this time, the shop owners of the drug stores in the capital suddenly realized.
I see!
The young man who came to buy up all the medicinal herbs before must have received news of the flood in the south of the Yangtze River from the imperial court a long time ago!
If Ye Chutang knew what the shopkeepers were thinking, he would definitely respond.
"You're overthinking it. I just like to stock up."
The prescription for Biwen San is made up of some common medicinal materials and is not expensive, so wealthy people buy more of it.
Although the pharmacy has already stocked up on medicinal materials, it is totally not enough if they just scramble for them.
The owner of Xinglintang had experienced a plague before and immediately proposed purchase restrictions.
There must never be a situation where sick people have no medicine to take while healthy people have stockpiles of medicine.
If the plague spreads, no one will be immune!
Xinglintang was a weathervane for pharmacies in the capital, and other pharmacies followed suit.
The panic buying stopped.
Ye Chutang was walking on the street, and after hearing about it, he went to Xinglin Hall.
Although the purchase of Biwensan is restricted, there are still many people coming to the pharmacy to buy medicine.
Ye Chutang couldn't squeeze in, so he called the medicine boy.
She had come to Xinglintang to buy medicine before, and the pharmacist recognized her.
"Miss Ye, are you also buying the plague-repelling powder?"
"No, I have a few prescriptions and would like to ask the shopkeeper to take a look."
After saying this, she handed the written prescription to the medicine boy.
The pharmacist glanced at the busy shopkeeper, hesitated for a moment, and then took the prescription.
"Miss Ye, the shopkeeper is very busy and may not have time to look at it now. Wait until he is free..."
Ye Chutang interrupted the medicine boy and said in a serious tone, "Make sure he takes a look."
The medicine boy considered Ye Chutang's current fame and nodded, "Okay, Miss Ye, please wait a moment."
He squeezed into the crowd with the prescription in hand, came in front of the shopkeeper and whispered a few words.
The shopkeeper glanced at Ye Chutang outside the shop and opened the prescription.
The words "plague preventive medicine" came into view.
He didn't take it seriously because there was no medicine in the world to prevent the plague.
But when he finished reading the prescription, he suddenly shouted excitedly, "Please ask Miss Ye to come in!"
When the medicine boy went to ask Ye Chutang for help, the shopkeeper looked at the remaining prescriptions and became more and more excited.
"This...this...Miss Ye's medical skills are comparable to the living Hua Tuo!"
When these words came out, people became curious.
"Shopkeeper, isn't Miss Ye the God of Literature who has descended to earth? How come she is better than Hua Tuo?"
They only heard that the eldest daughter of the Ye family had amazing literary talent, and even Dean Song of Huating Academy was inferior to her.
I haven't heard that she knows medical skills?
The shopkeeper shook the prescriptions in his hand and said proudly, "Miss Ye's writing is good, and her medical skills are even better!"
"Although the prescription was brought by Miss Ye, it doesn't necessarily mean she wrote it, right?"
"Even if she wrote the prescription, it doesn't necessarily mean she prescribed it, right?"
Disgusting men are naturally hostile to outstanding women.
Ye Chutang didn't care.
She was protected by a medicine boy and entered the pharmacy.
"Boss, remember the faces of these two people. If one day they need my prescription to save their lives, don't sell them medicine."
The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly, "The prescription is from Miss Ye, you have the final say."
The people became even more curious and asked, "Boss, what kind of prescription is that in your hand?"
"A good recipe that can save the world!"
