Chapter 171 Ancestral Prescription
Chapter 171 Ancestral Prescription
Old Mrs. Sun is much better than last time I saw her, but she is still dark and thin.
Sun Qi followed beside her. The two of them were like bamboo poles, one big and one small. They could fall down when the wind blew.
Mrs. Sun was a little surprised to see Shen Zhuoxi: "You are the second young lady they call you, so young?"
"Yes." Shen Zhuoxi looked her over and said, "Are you feeling better?"
"It's thanks to the Second Miss." Mrs. Sun bowed deeply and said, "It's a blessing to be able to save this life. I'm here to thank the Second Miss for saving my life."
"Not only did you help, but you also provided money. This kind of kindness is really hard to repay."
"It's instinct to save people." Shen Zhuoxi asked Hui Zhi to move two chairs over and said, "You're not well yet, so you don't need to come here to say thank you."
Old Mrs. Sun was very embarrassed, with an apology on her dark and thin face. She took out two crumpled pieces of paper from her arms and said, "Something happened to our family, and we really can't get any money out of it."
"I know your consultation fee is not cheap, and you also lent me a piece of silver." After saying that, he took out one of the pieces of paper and handed it to Shen Zhuoxi and said, "This is an IOU."
Shen Zhuoxi took it and looked at it. The handwriting was crooked and there were several typos, but it could be seen that he had written it as neatly as possible.
Moreover, the IOU stated that it was five hundred taels of silver, which was nothing to her, but to the Sun family, which was already in a state of poverty and had difficulty even eating, this amount of money was considered a sky-high price.
Thinking of what happened to the Sun family and looking at this IOU, she felt inexplicably sad: "There's no need for the IOU. I'll pay it back when I get it. My medical fee won't be that much."
"I've asked about it." Mrs. Sun took a breath and said, "To treat Mr. Right Prime Minister's Mansion, your consultation fee is as high as hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. I don't have the ability to give you this much."
Having said this, Mrs. Sun took out another piece of paper and handed it to Shen Zhuoxi and said, "This is my girl's deed of sale. Second Miss, please see if there is anything wrong. She is a medical student."
"We voluntarily sent the girl to Renxintang to study medicine. There is no monthly payment, and it is enough to provide enough food. It is indeed not easy for the girl to follow me and eat bran-pharynx vegetables."
With the same handwriting as the previous one, Shen Zhuoxi looked at Sun Qi: "Are you willing to study medicine?"
Sun Qi nodded timidly and whispered: "I want to study medicine. Like my grandfather and father, I can treat illnesses and save people."
"The road to studying medicine is very difficult." Shen Zhuoxi said again: "Have you thought about it?"
"Yes." Sun Qi nodded solemnly, knelt down and said, "Please take me in, Miss Second."
Shen Zhuoxi pulled Sun Qi up and said, "Get up. Since it's a contract to sell myself, I have to give you money. The consultation fee and the previous account will be written off, and I will give you another hundred taels of silver."
When Sun Qi came to Renxintang, he not only wanted to open his mouth to eat, but also learned skills. If he didn't give Renxintang money, it would be good. How could he dare to ask for more money.
Mrs. Sun quickly waved her hand and said: "No, thank you Miss Second for your kindness. She is just a little girl. She is causing trouble. How can she dare to ask for money?"
"Take it." Shen Zhuoxi ordered Li Zhong to get the banknotes and said, "It's not easy for your Sun family, you still have a grandson to support."
Old Mrs. Sun did not accept the bill, but knelt down and said, "If the second young lady is truly merciful, this old woman is so shameless that I still have one thing to ask for."
Shen Zhuoxi roughly guessed what was going on and said, "Your grandson has some brain problems and he will definitely not be able to practice medicine."
"Yes, I know." Mrs. Sun wiped away her tears and said, "That child also had a hard life. He was left in the ice and snow when he was less than seven years old. It was my son who met him while collecting medicine and kindly picked him up and raised him."
"It's probably because the cold weather and the long time outside have damaged his brain. He is slow and dull, but he has a good heart and can distinguish between good and evil. My son and wife were here before, so I didn't have to worry about him."
"Most of them are gone now. I'm already old and I don't know how many years I have left. The second lady is so kind, why not take Sun Gang in too? He can't practice medicine, but he can still clean up."
Shen Zhuoxi thought about the scene when he saw Sun Gang that day and hesitated.
Seeing this, Mrs. Sun continued: "Sun Gang doesn't want any money. He just needs you to provide him with some food to eat and a set of clothes to keep him warm."
"He is diligent and will definitely do whatever you ask him to do!"
Shen Zhuoxi frowned and said, "Speaking of this, I don't mind making it clearer. Renxintang is a place for medical treatment, not charity."
"Sun Gang is not very smart, but he is very good in front of you. If something suddenly goes wrong one day and he gets violent and hurts someone, how can I explain to the people who come here to seek medical treatment?"
Mrs. Sun gritted her teeth and said, "I know that many people come to Renxintang for medical treatment, and I also know that there is no such thing as a free lunch. Second Miss, don't you want some medicinal materials?"
"As long as you agree to accept their brothers and sisters and treat them well, I am willing to give you all the medicinal materials the Sun family has!"
The existing medicinal materials of the Sun family are worth several hundred taels of silver. Previously, even though the mother-in-law was unconscious due to illness, she was unwilling to sell any of them.
Now that I think about my two grandchildren, it is surprising enough that I can do this.
"Didn't you say that you want to keep it until your son-in-law comes back?" Shen Zhuoxi asked suspiciously.
Mrs. Sun thought of something, her eyes turned red, and she said, "My miserable son and wife may have died long ago and will never come back. I really wanted to guard the small medicine shop before."
"But after I fainted and hung on by a thread a few days ago, I have thought a lot more clearly. If I can't protect everything, I will die and meet the King of Hell. The two children have to live."
"The second young lady is kind-hearted and has a good reputation. She is definitely worthy of trust."
Afraid that Shen Zhuoxi would not agree, Mrs. Sun handed something forward from her arms and said: "And this, I am willing to exchange the prescription passed down by the Sun family for the future of the two children."
"I just ask the second lady to pass the recipe to Sun Qi and Sun Gang in the future, so that the Sun family's things will not be lost to future generations."
What Old Mrs. Sun handed over was exactly what Li Zhong had mentioned, the Sun family's ancestral prescription for treating sores.
Things that Yuan Jiutang and Yi'an Hall didn't even buy at high prices.
"If you don't accept it, the old woman will never be able to kneel down!" Old Mrs. Sun said, feeling uncertain, raising the book above her head.
Mrs. Sun had thought about it before she came here. If the second young lady was not good, she would just leave Sun Qi to make ends meet. But if she was good, she would be willing to spend all her wealth in exchange for the future stability of the two brothers and sisters.
Sun Qi also knelt down, his eyes dim with tears but he didn't dare to cry, and his body as thin as a bamboo pole couldn't help shaking.
"Oh." Shen Zhuoxi sighed and said, "Get up, I promise you, but first, if Sun Gang hurts anyone, I will send him back to you."
"Thank you, Miss Second, for helping me." Mrs. Sun kowtowed deeply, stood up, placed the prescription next to Shen Zhuoxi, and said, "I am willing to die now."
"You take good care of him, he won't die." Shen Zhuoxi glanced at Fang Zi and said, "Sun Qi will stay today. As for Sun Gang, you go back and make an agreement with him, then bring it over and give it to shopkeeper Li. "
Mrs. Sun thanked her profusely and left.
