"What do you want to do?" Banqin shouted, although he looked frightened but still blocked the door firmly.
"What are you doing? Treat the disease!" The man shouted and looked at her fiercely, "Didn't you say that you don't treat people who are not immortal? Now that this person is about to die, why don't you treat him quickly? Are you going to take human life seriously?"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone laughed.
"Since this man is about to die, let's go and file a lawsuit." A male voice said.
This place belongs to the ancestral home of the Zhang family, a wealthy family in Tongjiang. There are basically no other people living around. The only few empty houses have not been inhabited for a long time because of the humid terrain, so when the place becomes lively, it does not attract people to watch. In addition,
There was a funeral being held in the house above, and no one else would come near. Why did people suddenly appear to watch and make sarcastic remarks?
"Who doesn't have eyes..." The two men turned around in annoyance to look for the sound.
I don't know when I saw three people riding by the river. On the horse was a young man. He was wearing a long-sleeved summer robe and a bamboo hat. He looked like he was in a hurry. At this time, he reined in his horse and looked over.
"You dare to be disrespectful to my husband!" Upon hearing the shouts of these two men, the two men in green clothes following the young husband immediately raised their eyebrows and shouted.
Lang Jun? Looking at this young man's dress, he is not a commoner, and the two men look a little frightened.
"This gentleman doesn't know the whole story, so don't talk nonsense." One of them said.
"I have been watching." The young man said, reaching out to lift the bamboo hat, "In this bright and clear world, there is such a blackmail. Xiaoliu, take my post and ask the county in Tongjiang.
Master Cheng Qin, can he take care of it?"
The two men were a little uneasy when they heard the young gentleman say that they had been watching. They panicked when they heard the young gentleman say the name of the county magistrate. Looking at the direction the young gentleman was walking, they saw that it was Zhang who was doing the funeral.
The relatives and friends of Zhang's family are all rich and powerful, so it seems that the husband's status is not ordinary.
"Okay, since this gentleman wants to find the county magistrate, let's report it to the official first!" One of them reacted quickly and seemed to shout angrily. He turned around and ran away.
"Wait!" The other man responded more slowly, but immediately dropped a harsh word and ran away.
In a blink of an eye, the woman lying on the ground was the only one left in front of the door.
Banqin came back to her senses and looked at the woman a little uneasy.
"Madam, there is a woman..." She gritted her teeth and turned around and shouted inward. Just as she was about to describe the woman's specific injuries, the man smiled again.
"Xiao Liu, he is dead. You should carry him to the official immediately and let him do the work..." he said loudly.
Before he finished speaking, he saw the woman lying on the ground getting up and running away. She dropped something on the ground without even bothering to pick it up, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The young man and his two followers burst into laughter. Banqin was stunned for a moment, but then he also laughed and couldn't help but take a few steps to look at the things on the ground curiously.
"That's an iron plate. What the woman spit out must be chicken blood." The young man said.
Banqin looked at the young man and hurriedly bowed his head and saluted.
"Thank you for your help, sir," she said.
"There is no need to be polite. This is in front of my aunt's house. We cannot tolerate these bastards living here and running wild, tarnishing their faces." The young man said, and after speaking, he stopped looking at Banqin and urged his horse to leave.
"Banqin."
Cheng Jiaoniang's call came from inside the house.
Banqin hurriedly turned around, but before turning around, the next sentence came out.
"Ask him his name, and the kindness will be repaid in the future."
Banqin immediately stopped turning around and chased after Lang Jun who had already urged his horse away.
It was probably the first time that Cheng Jiaoniang's voice was so loud. It was so loud that the husband heard it. He smiled and looked at Ban Qin who was chasing after her.
"Anyone can do it with a little effort, so it's nothing like a favor." He said with a smile, and then urged the horse forward without stopping.
The entourage trotted to follow. Banqin hurried a few steps and watched the gentleman arrive in front of Zhang's house and go out.
Banqin remembered that the lady was busy turning around.
Cheng Jiaoniang was still sitting behind the screen, her expression dull and slightly panting.
"Madam!" Banqin was so frightened that she knelt down.
Cheng Jiaoniang looked at her with a look that said I'm fine. Banqin was reassured that she didn't become an idiot again.
After a moment, Cheng Jiaoniang slowly spoke.
"I just said that sentence, I was tired," she said.
This was an explanation of what had just happened to her, and Banqin was both happy and sad at the same time.
"My wife is frightened." She lowered her head and wiped away her tears.
"It's not surprising." Cheng Jiaoniang said, "It makes sense."
How can it be normal for a bad person to come to your door? Banqin is puzzled.
Cheng Jiaoniang didn't speak anymore. She originally wanted to explain, but it was really difficult to speak, so she just stopped.
Banqin quickly put it aside and felt relieved that the lady was not afraid.
"The man entered the Zhang family gate and called this his aunt's house. He was seventeen or eighteen years old," she said.
Cheng Jiaoniang nodded slightly, but this nod could not be seen by outsiders who were not careful.
"Old Madam Zhang would not have such a young nephew at her age. He should be Young Madam Han's nephew." She said, looking at Ban Qin, "There are many things in this world that can be done easily, but not everyone is willing to do it. Ban Qin
Qin, my memory is not good, please help me write it down."
Banqin responded and knelt down in front of a short table beside her. There was a simple pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table. She picked up the pen and carefully wrote down a few words on a silk book.
"Madam, shall we leave now?" She thought of something and asked again.
"There's no rush." Cheng Jiaoniang said.
Since the lady said there was no rush, Banqin was not in a hurry. She turned her head and continued writing with difficulty.
At the same time, in a house in the east part of the city, two big men and the woman were kneeling on the ground with their heads down.
"I can't blame you." A man in a green robe sitting on the fallen vines in the room said with a serious expression.
As soon as these words came out, the three people kneeling in front of the house breathed a sigh of relief and kowtowed in thanks.
"Father." A man came in hurriedly, "That husband is from the Han family in Suzhou. He came here for a funeral today and has nothing to do with this wife of the Cheng family in the past."
Hearing what he said, the man in green robe nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as there is no Zhang family or Han family behind the scenes, it will be fine.
"It's true that I acted rashly. There will definitely be a lot of people coming and going during the Zhang family's Han family's funeral, so I shouldn't rush forward at this time." He said, "In that case, let's take care of it slowly."
The three people responded and retreated.
"Father, is the wife of the Cheng family really skilled in medicine? She must have a master. If we ask her for a prescription, then..." the man said with a bit of uneasiness.
"She is by no means highly skilled in medicine. Judging from the few cases she has cured, the symptoms are not the same at all, but they all recovered soon after being carried in. She did not even prescribe follow-up decoctions. This is not in line with normal medical principles, so it must be
He has a skill that can bring the dead back to life." The man in green robe said with a burning expression.
The man nodded after hearing this.
"It would be a great blessing for our Cao family to get such a skill." He said, with an excited look on his face, as if he had already obtained the skill.
"There are only two masters and servants in the house?" the man in green robe asked again.
The man nodded.
"There are only two masters and servants. I just saw that Mrs. Cheng's patients were unconscious at the time, and those who were allowed in were left in the hospital. Mrs. Cheng hardly spoke, so I don't know what Mrs. Cheng looks like.
Age, judging from the shadow, she is a woman in her twenties or thirties," he said.
"It doesn't matter, we can meet in person in a few days." The man in green robe said with a bit of a smile.
The man took off his wooden clogs and cloth stockings, walked into the house and sat on the mat.
"Father, what if the Zhang family or the Han family come forward to stop me again?" he asked suddenly.
Neither the Zhang family nor the Han family can be offended by a small businessman like them.
"People from outside the country, with no relatives or friends, why are we blocking each other?" The man in green robe frowned and said, "But after all, we are in front of the Zhang family. The Zhang family has always kept their status high and secluded from the world. You should act more cautiously next time."
The man has no worries anymore and responds with joy.
