A man came from the coolie camp, wearing a green cloth robe and carrying a large medicine box.
The weather was hot and the clothes on my back were very wet.
It is said that this man was recommended by Mr. Song's brother-in-law. It was said that the superiors were sympathetic to the coolies and specially arranged for a doctor to see them on a daily basis.
"Master Guanying, my surname is Xu, and my name is Xu Zeran. This is a letter of recommendation from Master Song. Please read it."
Guan Ying took the letter and took a look at it. A kind smile appeared on his fat face: "Sir Song and I are brothers of the opposite sex. Of course, I can rest assured about the people he recommends. But, I want to remind you that this place
No different than anywhere else, these untouchables are very cunning. Don’t let them fool you, these people are just thieves.”
"Thank you Guanying for the tip, I'll save it for you," Doctor Xu said clearly. "To be honest, although I treat people here, it's also to develop medicines. Most people don't dare to eat medicines here.
It’s different if you’re a person.”
As he spoke, he took out a box from the medical kit and placed it on the table.
"Master Guanying, this is a little thought from me, please accept it. If it is too late in the future, I will live and eat here, which will really cause trouble to you."
Guan Ying pushed the box gently and felt that it was heavy. There must be silver in it. He pretended to refuse and said, "You are out of sight like this. Take it back. Take it back."
Of course, the doctor surnamed Xu couldn't take it back. Instead, he cupped his hands and prepared to leave.
Guan Ying then called someone: "Come here, take Mr. Xu out and look around. Please stay with me. Don't neglect me."
The doctor surnamed Xu went out for a brief walk, then said that the weather was too hot and talked to a few supervisors while enjoying the shade under a tree.
After a while it was time for lunch, so he took a few bottles of good wine from the horse he was riding and invited the overseers to drink together.
How can these people not be good at drinking? They all came over as soon as they smelled it.
"This is Huiquan wine. It has to be aged for ten years, right?" The supervisor's surname was Zhao. He was dressed in black skin and flesh, and he was a ruthless person.
"You're absolutely right!" Doctor Xu gave him a thumbs up, "I'm back today, the weather is hot, and I haven't prepared anything to eat, so I'll treat you all to a drink. I'll prepare some good cooked meat another day.
, let’s have a good meal.” Doctor Xu said and poured wine for these people.
These people say "How can I always make you spend money", but they are happy in their faces and in their hearts.
They are the typical people who suffer at a disadvantage. Taking advantage is not enough, let alone good wine and meat!
Doctor Xu brought quite a lot of wine, but there were so many people here, so if we divided it up, each person would only have half a bowl.
As soon as Dr. Xu finished pouring the wine, the person in front of Guanying came to greet him and said that Mr. Guanying invited Dr. Xu to come over and have dinner with him.
Doctor Xu had no choice but to bow his hands to these people and say, "I'm sorry."
After he left, the overseers drank and talked about him.
Some said: "Who is this man? We have never had a doctor here, so what is he doing here?"
"He is a friend of Mr. Song's brother-in-law, not from the capital. Do you think he is here to do good deeds? He is just here to kill people without having to pay for their lives." Another supervisor sneered.
"Whatever, the people here are not as good as the cats and dogs of good families, so why is death not a death?" Some people's hearts have long since turned into pig iron, so cold that they become hard.
"Let me tell you, seeing as he is so rich, he must be developing secret medicines for those rich people. Rich people's lives are precious, and one pill can be sold for thousands of taels of silver." A supervisor seemed to understand what was going on here.
Insider, "Haven't you heard that saying? Ten tribulations are not as good as one medicine seller."
But no matter what, they already know that this doctor named Xu is a bad person like them, and he does not regard these coolies here as human beings.
This alone is enough, nothing else matters.
Of course, it would be the best thing for them to enjoy some wine and meat.
In the second half of the day, Guan Ying left. Dr. Xu came out and looked around, and asked Supervisor Zhao: "What's wrong with the man lying under the tree over there? Can I give him a doctor?"
"He has been lying there for several days, delirious and probably disabled!"
"I've cured him, can I let him test the medicine for me?" Doctor Xu asked.
"It's up to you!" Supervisor Zhao said, "It doesn't matter if he's put to death."
Doctor Xu walked over and turned the man over. His eyes were closed tightly, his lips and tongue were burnt, and his whole body was hot. He was obviously having a fever.
Doctor Xu found an empty shed and called two coolies to carry him there.
Zheng Wuji was in a daze and thought he was dreaming.
In the dream, he returned to the mountain bookstore again.
Mr. Wu was telling him the Analects of Confucius, and he talked about the part where Confucius visited Boniu when he was sick.
"This person has this disease! This person has this disease!"
"Sir..." Zheng Wuji woke up faintly, and he seemed to hear Mr. Wu's voice.
"Are you awake? How do you feel about your body?" Doctor Xu pressed his ribs, and Zheng Wuji shrank into a ball in pain, "Well, two ribs were broken."
It took Zheng Wuji a long time to see clearly that the man in front of him had a beard and a big mole on the left side of his face. He didn't look like a good person, but his voice was exactly the same as Mr. Wu.
"You are..." Zheng Wuji hesitated, not daring to confirm.
"Sir, you have to pretend that you don't know me, otherwise we both have to stay here." Dr. Xu is Mr. Wu, just disguised.
Zheng Wuji was so excited that he almost cried and asked Mr. Wu: "Does the eldest young lady know that I am here? When will she come to save me?"
Seeing Mr. Wu coming here, Zheng Wuji was half relieved. He believed that Xu Chunjun would not ignore death, and even if this was a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, she would rescue him.
"The eldest mistress didn't know you were here, and I didn't tell her," Mr. Wu said. "If she knows you ran away, my three thousand taels of silver will be wasted."
"You..." Zheng Wuji almost fainted again, "I don't care, take me out quickly!"
"Official, please don't embarrass me. It would be great if I could sneak in and heal your injuries. How do I have the right to take people out?" Mr. Wu said, "Maybe even my old life will be lost.
here."
"I told them that I cured you. You try the medicine for me, but don't do anything wrong." Mr. Wu said, taking out a big black pill and giving it to Zheng Wuji, "Actually, it's beef powder and
Made of honey, eating it can relieve hunger."
Zheng Wuji took it over, threw it into his mouth and chewed it. Sure enough, it tasted like beef. After eating, he reached for more.
Mr. Wu shook his head and said: "No more than three pills a day. Taking too many will make people see the flaws."
Zheng Wuji remembered something more important, grabbed him and said, "It's all about other things. It doesn't matter if I go out a few days late. There is a red girl and her sister here. You must find a way to save them and don't let them go out again."
