"Girl, please stretch out your hand and I will take your pulse." The woman was very patient and spoke softly, which made people feel very comfortable.
"Okay." Xiao Ling'er obediently raised her hands and placed them on the table. Xu Zhenzhen began to take her pulse. After a long time, her brows furrowed.
After a long while, Xu Zhenzhen patiently asked Xiao Ling'er, "Miss, besides your stomach discomfort, are you feeling any other discomfort?"
Xiao Ling'er shook her head and replied, "No, and I don't feel so uncomfortable in my stomach anymore."
"Okay, then you drink a sip of hot water and sit here for a while. I'll show it to others first and then show it to you in detail later." Xu Zhenzhen instructed Xiao Ling'er and walked towards the door.
A middle-aged man hurried in carrying an old man on his back. "Doctor Xu, please help my father. He fell and hit his head on a stone man."
Xiao Ling'er took a look and saw a large blood-red spot on the back of the old man's head. She hurriedly stood up to help carry the man to the couch beside her.
Xu Zhenzhen was methodical. He brought out a basin of warm water and cleaned the area around the old man's wound first. Then he quickly took out a packet of purple-black powder from the medicine cabinet and poured it on the wound.
Xiao Ling'er didn't know what kind of medicinal ingredient the powder was, but she saw that it had a very good effect in stopping bleeding. Not long after the old man fell down, the bleeding from his wound stopped.
Finally, he applied a layer of herbal medicine on the wound and bandaged it with a piece of linen. The whole set of movements was smooth and flowing.
"Doctor Xu, how much...how much silver?" the middle-aged man asked embarrassedly.
"Give me forty-five copper coins." Xu Zhenzhen said after a pause.
"Thank you, thank you, Doctor Xu." The man took out a cloth bag from his arms, poured out all the pills, counted out forty-five and gave them to Xu Zhenzhen. Finally, there were five left and he put them back.
After everyone left, an old doctor lifted the curtain and walked out from the inner room.
"You, you, the fees you charge are not even enough to pay for the medicine. If you continue like this, we can only wait for the store to close." The old doctor said helplessly.
"Grandpa, their family is not having an easy time either. Aunt Liao still needs to take medicine all year round. We'll just keep our shop open for as long as we can." Xu Zhenzhen replied bitterly.
Only then did Xiao Ling'er realize that the money Xu Zhenzhen had just collected was not even enough to pay for the medicine. This... was indeed very kind.
However, Xiao Ling'er turned her eyes and came up with an idea.
"Girl, how are you now? Are you still feeling uncomfortable in your stomach?" Xu Zhenzhen came to Xiao Ling'er and asked.
"I'm much better now. Maybe I ate something unclean." Xiao Ling'er replied.
"Well, you should also be careful about what you eat on a daily basis. If you are not careful, you will get an upset stomach." Xu Zhenzhen instructed.
"Okay, thank you, Doctor Xu. How much does the consultation cost?" Xiao Ling'er looked at Xu Zhenzhen and asked.
"Give me five copper coins." Xu Zhenzhen answered after a moment of hesitation.
"Okay." Xiao Ling'er took out five copper coins and gave them to Xu Zhenzhen, then walked out.
On the second and third days, Xiao Ling'er silently watched Xu Zhenzhen from not far away from the clinic.
On the fourth day, Xiao Ling'er arrived at noon, but she didn't expect that Xu Zhenzhen and the others had encountered trouble.
Before I got close, I heard a lot of noise and saw a large crowd gathered in front of the clinic.
Xiao Ling'er squeezed into the crowd and took a look. The scene was very messy, with a corpse placed at the door of the clinic.
This corpse was none other than the old man who had been injured in the head four days ago. At this moment, a woman squatted beside the corpse, crying and cursing:
