Chapter 463 Asking for a Doctor

He skipped the morning exercise and slept until mid-morning before waking up.

As soon as she opened her eyes and sat up, she sneezed, "A-choo!"

Fu Dong brought in some hot water, and when he heard the sneeze, he couldn't help but worry, "Miss, you may have caught a cold, why don't you ask a doctor to take a look? There have been a lot of people catching colds in the city recently. This morning, Mother Zhong went out to buy groceries, thinking of buying a fish, but the Chen family, who sells a lot of fish in the East Market, has caught a cold, and the fish shop is temporarily closed."

Shi Liu was not sure either. After all, she was in good health and had never been sick since she was a child.

But she cherishes her life, and these days catching a cold can be fatal.

Whether you have caught a cold or not, take some medicine first.

As long as you take the medicine quickly, you don't have to worry about catching a cold.

Shi Liu immediately told Fu Dong, "Ask Huang Fu to get me some medicine."

Fu Dong hurriedly agreed, but then asked, "Shouldn't you ask the doctor to take my pulse and prescribe medicine?"

There are many types of colds. If you just go and get medicine, what if it’s not the right one for you?

Shi Liu paused for a moment, thinking of something, and said, "To ask for a doctor, go to Xingsheng Pharmacy. Tell Huang Fu to tell him that if anyone asks, just say that I am sick."

When Fu Dong heard that they had to go to Xingsheng Pharmacy, it was far from Guihua Hutong, and it would take a lot of time to go back and forth.

However, Fu Dong did not say much. He responded and went to the outer courtyard to tell Huang Fu.

When Huang Fu heard that the girl was sick and needed a doctor, he did not dare to be careless and told her to go to Xingsheng Pharmacy. Huang Zhong was afraid that it would delay things if it was too far, so he asked him to hire a carriage. After calling the doctor, they could take the carriage and bring him back quickly.

Huang Fu drove all the way to Xingsheng Pharmacy. Wow, there were quite a lot of people getting medicine inside. The place was full, and most of them were infected with colds.

Huang Fu took great pains to squeeze through the crowd and got to the front counter. He asked, "Is there a doctor on duty?"

The medicine boy was so busy that he had no time to respond. The shopkeeper was also very busy with the accounting and helping to get medicine.

Huang Fulian asked several times before the shopkeeper finally found time to reply, "Go to another place. You see, our pharmacy is really busy today, and the doctor can't go out for outpatient consultation."

If it were any other time, Huang Fu would have really left, but the girl specifically wanted to invite the doctor from Xingsheng Pharmacy, so how could he ask another doctor to go back?

Huang Fu smiled shyly and said, "My daughter trusts the doctors in your pharmacy. Can you please be flexible and see which doctor is willing to come with me? Don't worry, the consultation fee will definitely be paid."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he paused his hand on the abacus and looked up at Huang Fu. "Which family is this?"

Huang Fu replied: "My home is the Li residence in Lihua Hutong."

Lihua Hutong? The shopkeeper heard that this family was not a well-known family in the city. If they were, he would know about it.

He shook his head and said, "If there is really no doctor available, you should go to another hospital. If it is not urgent, you may be able to wait for another hour or two."

Huang Fu couldn't help but feel disappointed. He must be in a hurry. How could he wait for two hours? But the doctor was too busy, and he couldn't take the doctor away.

Just as he was turning around to leave, he thought that it was more important to ask another doctor to go back and see the girl first. Then he would come back to Xingsheng Pharmacy and ask the doctor to go back and see the girl again.

"Who in your family is sick? How sick is he? Is it urgent?"

Suddenly, a voice sounded.

Huang Fu paused and looked over. He saw a thin young man standing behind the counter. He should be from the pharmacy.

He said hurriedly, "It's my daughter. She feels a little unwell. Maybe she caught a cold."

The thin man glanced at the shopkeeper and said, "It's not close from Lihua Hutong. Since they came from so far away to invite us, they must trust us, Xingsheng Pharmacy. I'll go there."

The shopkeeper was also surprised, "The Third Young Master is going in person?" He didn't say much and quickly asked the little medicine boy to go with him.

Huang Fu was happy to see a doctor willing to go, but was he too young? Were his medical skills good enough?
His daughter is an unmarried girl, how can she let such a young doctor see her?
There was a hint of hesitation on his face.

Seeing him like this, the people waiting in line nearby couldn't help but say, "Little brother, this is Doctor Xiao Wang. He is a very good doctor. You should be happy to have him treat your daughter!"

"Young Doctor Wang?" Huang Fu responded. "You are the Doctor Wang who is so skilled in acupuncture? Oh, hurry up, Doctor Wang asked me to follow you. I'm driving a carriage here!"

Doctor Wang, the medicine boy and Huang Fu got into the carriage, and the journey was quiet.

Soon, we arrived at Lihua Hutong.

"Doctor Wang, please come in." Huang Fu led Doctor Wang in and led him to the second door. Mother Zhong came out and said, "This is Doctor Wang from Xingsheng Pharmacy."

Mother Zhong also knew the name of Doctor Wang. She was happy to see that her son had managed to invite Doctor Wang. She was sure that the girl would reward him later.

He immediately smiled and invited Doctor Wang to come in.

When they reached the east wing, Mother Zhong rushed through the door and said, "Miss, the doctor is here."

After a while, Fu Dong lifted the curtain and came out. He was also surprised to see Doctor Wang. "Doctor Wang?"

Doctor Wang was also surprised when he saw her, "You? Is it Miss Li who is sick?"

"It's my girl. Doctor Wang, please come in." Fu Dong was very happy to see an acquaintance. No wonder the girl had to travel a long way to Xingsheng Pharmacy to invite a doctor. She also knew Doctor Wang's medical skills.

"Girl, look who's here?"

Because she wanted to see a doctor, Shi Liu, who was sitting at the round table, raised her eyes and saw Doctor Wang coming in. Her eyes flickered and she showed surprise on her face, "Doctor Wang? Why are you here?"

He laughed again, "Everyone says that the doctors at Xingsheng Pharmacy are good and their medicine is good, so I asked my servant to go to Xingsheng Pharmacy to invite the doctor. I didn't expect that by such a coincidence, Doctor Wang actually came in person. There must be a lot of patients looking for you now. Why did you come just because we are acquaintances? I just caught a common cold, and I can just go see any doctor."

Doctor Wang also smiled, "I didn't know it was you, Miss Li, before I came. There are many patients in the pharmacy today, all of them are infected with colds, and several doctors are unable to help. I am mainly good at acupuncture, and I am free today, so I came."

"Miss Li, what's wrong?"

"I'm sorry to bother you, Doctor Wang." Shi Liu said, "I just caught a cold and kept sneezing when I woke up this morning. I value my life the most, so a sneeze is very important to me. Doctor Wang, please don't laugh at me for making a fuss over nothing."

Then he invited Doctor Wang to take a seat.

Doctor Wang sat down and asked the medicine boy to take out the pulse diagnosis instrument. He asked Shi Liu to put her hand on the pulse pillow. He stretched out his hand to feel the pulse while responding to Shi Liu's words, "Health is the most important thing. You should be cautious. There are many people who have been infected with colds recently. You should not be careless."

"How is it?" Pomegranate asked worriedly.

After a moment, Doctor Wang withdrew his hand and said with a smile: "The pulse is a little floating and slow, but Miss Li, don't worry, just take two doses of medicine, it's not a big problem."

Shi Liu also withdrew his hand, and heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. He smiled and said, "That's good. Please ask Doctor Wang to prescribe a prescription."

Doctor Wang nodded and quickly wrote out a prescription.

Fudong reached out and took it.

"Thank you, Doctor Wang, for coming here today. We are all acquaintances. I'll let Zuo Cheng take you back." Shi Liu politely saw the guest off.

Fu Dong immediately sent Doctor Wang out and stuffed a purse into the medicine boy's hand.

He escorted him all the way to the second gate and gave the prescription to Zuo Cheng who was waiting there, asking him to send Doctor Wang back and bring the medicine back at the same time.

In the east wing, Shi Liu looked at the swaying door curtain and pursed her lips slightly.

"Ask Huang Fu in. I have something to ask you."
