"May I ask, madam, do you have any brothers in your family?" Wei Bainian walked up to Su Ruojin and asked directly.
Fearing that Su Ruojin might misunderstand, Wei Bainian quickly explained, "Madam, I didn't mean anything by it. It's just that you and I have an old friend who look very similar. I've been looking for this friend for a long time, so I took the liberty of asking you."
When Wei Bainian saw Su Ruojin before, he felt that she looked very similar to the portrait of the little miracle doctor drawn by Doctor Li.
The only problem is that the young doctor is male and Su Ruojin is female. But if Su Ruojin has brothers, they might be the ones I'm looking for.
Su Ruojin and Xiao Yanchu exchanged a glance; they had already guessed who Wei Bainian was looking for.
“I do have five older brothers,” Su Ruojin said truthfully.
Upon hearing Su Ruojin mention having an elder brother, Wei Bainian became somewhat excited. "Has Madam's elder brother recently visited Longxiao City? Is he a physician? Where is he now?"
"No, we are from the Great Chu Kingdom. My elder brothers are all in the Great Chu Kingdom and have never been to Longxiao City. Moreover, none of my five elder brothers are doctors."
Su Ruojin was not lying. Only a small part of Fifth Brother's business involved Xiaoyue Kingdom. He mainly entrusted his subordinates to manage it, and he himself had never been to Xiaoyue.
Upon hearing this, Wei Bainian looked disappointed. "Is that so? I apologize. I was being rude. I hope you will forgive me, Madam."
However, Wei Bainian thought that since that little miracle doctor was Kang Shenyi's apprentice, he could ask Kang Shenyi later and find out the situation, so his disappointment dissipated a little.
Seeing Wei Bainian's state, Su Ruojin said, "Doctor Wei, I wonder who you are looking for? Do you have a portrait? My husband and I often travel all over the country, so we may have seen him."
Wei Bainian thought for a moment, then took out the portrait drawn by Doctor Li from his pocket and handed it to Su Ruojin, saying, "Please take a look, Madam, and see if you have seen this person before."
Su Ruojin took the portrait and saw that it looked seven or eight parts like her own appearance when she was dressed as a man. No wonder Wei Bainian asked her if she had any brothers at home.
It seems that Wei Bainian is indeed looking for him.
After looking at the portrait, Su Ruojin returned it to Wei Bainian. "I'm sorry, Doctor Wei, we haven't seen this person before. However, we will be staying in Longxiao City for a while. If we see him, we will definitely send you a message."
Wei Bainian thought this was just Su Ruojin being polite, and didn't hold out much hope. "Then I'll have to trouble you, Madam."
At this moment, Manager Liu walked over and said, "Doctor Wei, Physician Kang requests your presence."
Wei Bainian hurriedly said goodbye to Su Ruojin and Xiao Yanchu, and left with Manager Liu.
"Ah Jin, what are your plans?" Xiao Yanchu asked.
"Let's take a look first." Su Ruojin began to wander around the clinic.
The clinic was bustling with people, most of whom paid directly for their medicine.
Two taels of silver for a dose of medicine, a fixed price, and the efficiency is quite high.
Suddenly, Su Ruojin saw a familiar face in the crowd. Wasn't this the middle-aged man whose leg was broken by the officials that day? What was he doing at Miaoshoutang?
A middle-aged man with a cane was queuing to buy medicine. Next to him was someone he knew, and the two started chatting.
"Zhang Da, why don't you go to Jishetang? Didn't the doctors at Jishetang cure your mother's heart ailment?"
"Oh, don't even mention it. My mother's heart condition is cured, but my father's headache has flared up again. I wanted to go to Jishetang to buy medicine, but the doctor there said that the little miracle doctor left behind a prescription for treating headaches and did not allow them to use it at their clinic. So I had no choice but to come to Miaoshoutang."
"The medicines at Miaoshoutang are really expensive," someone remarked.
“Who can argue with that? It really does cure the disease, even if it’s a bit pricey,” Zhang Da said.
"Hey Zhang Da, what kind of incredible luck have you had lately? Your mother had a heart attack and then she met a miracle doctor who cured her with just a few doses of medicine. On her way home, you even found a bag of silver."
Zhang Da chuckled, "Perhaps it's because Heaven took pity on me. If it weren't for that bag of silver, I wouldn't be able to afford the medicine from Jishetang."
