The two teachers of the Song family opened their eyes wide in surprise. What was she saying?
Not only do they want to buy a yard, but they want to buy a big yard?
They even said money wasn't an issue!
Does she really have that much money?
Just as Doctor Song was hesitating whether to remind her again, He Jiuniang said, "It doesn't matter if we're a little further away from the main street, as long as it's quiet."
She really didn't want a place that was too noisy; the streets were too bustling and noisy.
The Song father and son were speechless. Even if it was far from the main street, it was still very expensive!
The Song family's current courtyard is a three-courtyard house. This was only because they had been in the palace for many years and their family ran a clinic with a considerable income. He Jiu Niang's demand for a four-courtyard house caught him off guard.
As expected, there are always people more capable than you, and mountains beyond mountains. Since she can say these things with such confidence, it means she must be rich. Doctor Song immediately didn't want to say anything more.
He waved wearily at his son, "In that case, Chi'er, go and ask around to find a better courtyard for Doctor He."
Although Song Chi was somewhat disappointed that she couldn't stay at home, she was still willing to take care of it, so she agreed and left.
He Jiuniang touched her nose. This was really something. She had only wanted to ask a reliable broker, but she didn't expect Song Chi to find one for her.
Wouldn't that leave us indebted to the Song family?
However, He Jiuniang didn't dwell on it; she figured she could just give them more prescriptions later.
For a family of doctors, what they care about most is the prescription.
Just as she was about to check if the dog had woken up, she saw a man walk in; it was the masked man who lived next door.
"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."
Lin Yiping took the initiative to greet him. Although he was wearing a mask and his full expression could not be seen, you could see that the corners of his mouth were curved, his voice was light, and he seemed to be in a very good mood.
For some reason, He Jiuniang suddenly felt that he had some ill intentions.
Although he reported me to the authorities last night, that doesn't mean he's a good person.
She nodded politely to Lin Yiping and was about to go to the backyard when Lin Yiping said, "I'm here to see a doctor."
He Jiuniang said coldly, "Yes, just go find the doctor over there. I only treat difficult and complicated cases."
The main reason is that I don't want to get too entangled with this man. Who would wear a mask in the sweltering heat? Wouldn't they get heat rash on their face?
"That's perfect, I have a rare and complicated disease."
Lin Yiping stared intently at He Jiuniang; even though she was wearing a mask, you could still feel the intensity in his eyes.
He Jiuniang: ...It seems like she's taken a liking to her.
"What, you're not sure you can cure it, are you?"
Seeing that she didn't speak, Lin Yiping tried to provoke her, but He Jiuniang sneered, turned around and left. She wasn't buying it.
Lin Yiping didn't speak, but took out a silver note worth a hundred taels and placed it on the table. Doctor Song, who was standing next to him, immediately widened his eyes and whispered to He Jiuniang, "It's just a doctor's visit anyway, you can go and take a look at him. Didn't you want to buy a courtyard? That will cost a lot of money!"
He Jiuniang: ...
Although she was indeed not short of money, what Dr. Song said made sense. Moreover, her previous money had never been publicly disclosed, so it was really hard to explain why she suddenly had to take out so much.
"Sit down."
Sensing her obvious displeasure, but still agreeing to treat him, Lin Yiping had no idea when he had offended this woman.
He had asked the innkeeper to bring him a late-night snack last night.
Fortunately, he didn't have time to dwell on it too much, as He Jiuniang had already begun to take his pulse.
Where does it hurt?
"Headache."
He Jiuniang carefully took his pulse, gave him a subtle look, and said in a serious tone, "Your condition is quite serious!"
Lin Yiping thought she was deliberately retaliating, but before he could speak, she said, "Your headache is indeed quite serious, but your other ailments are not easy either, such as—kidney deficiency."
"You! What nonsense are you spouting?"
Before Lin Yiping could speak, the guard next to him started to criticize him, saying that his master had kidney deficiency and had eaten the gall of a bear and the heart of a leopard.
"Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, you know in your heart."
He Jiuniang ignored the guard and spoke directly to Lin Yiping.
"You've been having trouble sleeping lately, often experiencing headaches and dizziness, and you also feel irritable and forgetful. Most importantly, you're not performing well in bed. These are all signs of kidney deficiency."
Luckily, Lin Yiping was wearing a mask, otherwise everyone would have seen his liver-like face.
He had only intended to find an excuse to get close to He Jiuniang today, but who knew that this woman would discover these problems in him.
However, he has indeed felt these symptoms she mentioned recently, especially poor sleep and irritability.
But how could a woman talk about men's sex life like that? She's shameless!
He took a few deep breaths to calm himself before asking, "Can it be cured?"
"Yes, but your condition is difficult to treat..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lin Yiping pulled out a few more silver notes and handed them over. He Jiuniang glanced at them; they were all one hundred taels in value. She carefully put them away.
"There are too many people here. Let's go to a side room. I need to examine your head."
This was in the lobby, and there were indeed many people there, some seeing doctors and others getting medicine. Most of them had overheard He Jiu Niang saying that he had kidney deficiency.
"Why didn't you say there were private rooms earlier? Lead the way!"
Lin Yiping looked at He Jiuniang with some exasperation, and once again felt that this woman was doing it on purpose.
He Jiuniang shrugged; she did it on purpose.
Doctor Song led his men to his private room where he treated patients. He Jiu Niang had just mentioned that he could observe Miss Gao's treatment method, so he took advantage of his seniority and stood by to watch, hoping to learn a few tricks.
He Jiuniang began examining his head. Looking at the straps of the mask tied to his head, she felt they were in the way and asked, "Can you take the mask off?"
"cannot."
Lin Yiping spoke with a hint of gritted teeth.
He Jiuniang added, "If your face is disfigured, I can fix it. As long as the money is right, anything is negotiable."
"unnecessary!"
Lin Yiping felt that his patience had reached its limit.
Just then, He Jiuniang noticed that the skin behind his ear was slightly peeling. Upon closer inspection, she realized that it was actually a human skin mask.
He Jiuniang frowned. This person was really something else. He wore a human skin mask and then an iron mask on top of that. How afraid he must be of being seen in his true form.
In short, he's not a good person.
He Jiuniang didn't want to have any close contact with such a person; she just wanted to cure his illness and be done with it, so she didn't say anything.
"Your headaches are likely due to a severe head injury you suffered years ago, leaving blood clots in your brain that haven't cleared. Acupuncture can clear these clots. As for kidney deficiency, you'll need to take medication to regulate it properly."
He Jiuniang came to a conclusion, much to the surprise of the guards beside her, who hadn't expected this female doctor to be so skilled.
Lin Yiping was also surprised that she was able to find out, and asked, "Is it that simple?"
