Rebirth of a prosperous doctor girl

Chapter 16 Pretending to be a God
Gu Chongyang didn't speak, just lowered his head and took a fan to lightly fan the fire.

The boy who called himself Zaozi put down the firewood and took a step forward.

"Miss, I know that even if I say this, you may not believe me. But since I sincerely want to do your business and help you, I will definitely find a way to get the best of both worlds."

Zaozi said: "Miss, you have a lot of servants in your house, why don't you send someone to go with me, I promise to send you back with lotus roots before dark. Because I need one more person, then two less The two silvers are all right, 18 taels. You give me 18 taels, and I promise to make things beautiful for you!"

Why is this little guy so interesting.

Gu Chongyang looked back at Zaozi, and laughed out loud.

Her smile made Zaozi feel a little uneasy.He immediately swore: "Miss, I won't lie to you, I can really get fresh lotus roots."

"I believe in you!" Gu Chongyang said, "I'll teach you how to do this. Since you said it was 20 taels, let's go for 20 taels. You've been talking about it for a long time, and I'm afraid your throat is dry. I'll buy you some sugar water to drink."

Zaozi was overjoyed when he heard the words: "Miss, don't worry, I will definitely bring you the lotus root. If you lose the lotus root, you will die if you lose it."

His solemn promise made Gu Chongyang laugh, and she took out the bank note from her purse and handed it to him.

Zaozi took the four banknotes from Gu Chongyang's hands excitedly, feeling that the four flimsy papers weigh a thousand catties.He grew up so big, and it was the first time he had so much money and did such a big business.

In the past, the biggest business he did was to run errands for Li Yuanwai, but that was only three taels of silver, this time it was 20 taels, how could he not be excited.

"It's from Datong Bank. If you recognize the ticket, you don't recognize the person. You will pay when you see the ticket. It's all five taels." Zaozi looked at the banknote again and again, swallowed his saliva and said, "It's not too late, since you I agree, Miss, then send someone to go with me."

"No need, no need for suspects, no doubts for employers. Since I asked you to help me, I believe you." Gu Chongyang said: "20 taels of silver is nothing to me."

She was absolutely right.

Her uncle was a wealthy businessman in Nanjing, and her mother had a generous dowry.Not to mention the present, even if the mother in the previous life is gone, she has never been short of money.

Zaozi put away the banknote and said solemnly: "Miss, you think highly of me, Zaozi, and I will definitely not disappoint your trust."

"Hurry up!" Gu Chongyang urged again: "I need it urgently."

"Yes!" Zaozi ran out.

She really needs it urgently. The prescription she prescribed is a medicine for nourishing yin, and lotus root juice should be added as a primer.

The key to this medicine lies in the lotus root juice.Lotus root juice can maximize the medicinal properties and get twice the result with half the effort.

Gu Chongyang finished making the medicine, and Lu Wu also came back: "Miss, Nanny Wu has been in the wife's room. When Nanny Wu comes out, I asked her to help you get lotus root, okay? If you can't eat it today It doesn't matter, you can eat it tomorrow. If you want to eat lotus root, I will definitely get it for you."

Gu Chongyang glanced at Luwu, very disappointed.

"You take the medicine with you, let's go back." Gu Chongyang left without answering Lu Wu.

Luwu glanced at Gu Chongyang worriedly, picked up the medicine jar and carefully followed behind her.

Gu Chongyang had other concerns in his mind.

The medicine has already been boiled, and someone has already obtained the medicine primer. How can I make my mother drink it?
What did she use to convince her mother?
Gu Chongyang went up the stairs and met Madam Wu who came out of his mother's room. Her eyes were red and her expression was sad.

"Miss!" Nanny Wu's lips trembled, she hugged Gu Chongyang's shoulder, and cried out silently.

"Nurse, mother won't die!" Gu Chongyang's immature voice was very serious: "I was seriously ill the day before yesterday, and I met an old fairy in my dream, and he told me that old doctor Li Xingchun could only cure my illness, but he couldn't. Healed my mother's illness. He also gave me a prescription, saying that if my mother took it, she would be cured. I had already prepared the medicine, and when the boy in the shop brought me lotus root, my mother took it, and it would be cured immediately. It can stop coughing and bleeding."

"My good lady, you are so sensible, Madam has not hurt you for nothing..." Wu Nanny smiled and said with tears in her eyes: "You have to listen to Mammy from now on, she will take good care of you, and you have to grow up safely Da, you will definitely live up to Madam's expectations of you."

Gu Chongyang bit his lip in discouragement, why is he a child, why doesn't everyone believe in him?

Mother and father didn't believe in themselves, Nanny Wu didn't believe in herself, even Luwu and Qingzhi couldn't control themselves, this feeling of being controlled by others was really uncomfortable.

Gu Chongyang stabilized his mind and grabbed Nanny Wu's arm.

"Nurse, do your legs get sore at night?"

"Miss..." The topic changed a little quickly, and Nanny Wu was stunned for a moment: "How do you know?"

It is true that her legs are often sore, but she knows that this is a disease of old age, and it will happen when people get old.She was afraid that his wife would be worried, and that his wife would send her to the Zhuangzi for retirement, so she kept it a secret, not even telling her son Wu Dacheng.

How did the lady know?

Seeing that Nanny Wu was willing to listen to him, Gu Chongyang lifted his spirits, but he didn't show anything on his face.

She didn't answer Nanny Wu's words, but said in an unquestionable tone: "Your legs are often sore, which is usually not serious. But when it's cloudy and rainy, your knees are not only sore but also stinging." The pain is unbearable. In winter, it will swell, and the joints will crack when walking, making it difficult to even walk."

Gu Chongyang paused and said: "Nurse, you have old cold legs and must be treated quickly. If you don't get treated, you may be paralyzed in bed."

The more Nanny Wu listened, the more serious she became, and a terrified expression appeared on her face at the end.I don't know if it was because I was afraid that I would be paralyzed, or because I was surprised by Gu Chongyang's accurate conclusion.

When Gu Chongyang saw that the fire was coming, he said: "But don't worry, the old god said that your legs are caused by damp and cold. When we return to the capital, you don't go out in winter, just stay in the room where the earth dragon was burned. Just stay. Take proper medicine and massage, and you will be cured in two years."

Nanny Wu was finally willing to Gu Chongyang: "Miss, did you really meet an old fairy in your dream?"

Although it was a questioning tone, her pious and expectant eyes showed her true inner thoughts.

"It's true." Gu Chongyang nodded seriously, and said seriously: "Nurse, have you forgotten that when the old doctor Li Xingchun came yesterday, I said that he may have made a wrong diagnosis. Because the old god said, I Mother's lungs are yin and yang imbalance, not lung cold. It's a pity that you didn't believe me when I said yesterday. Facts have proved that what the old fairy said is true, and he didn't lie to me. You are wrong!"

Gu Chongyang pursed his lips, feeling very wronged.

Nanny Wu showed an expression of disbelief, the corners of her mouth twitched, and it took a long time before she said, "Miss, what else did the old fairy tell you?"

"The old god told me a lot." Gu Chongyang showed a thoughtful expression on his face, as if he was recalling what the old god said. After a long time, Fang said seriously: "But the old god said, only I can know , can’t tell others, saying that this is a secret that cannot be leaked.”

As she said that, she stared at Nanny Wu with big black and white eyes: "Mommy, what is a secret?"

But Nanny Wu was so frightened that she covered her mouth: "Oh, my lady, since the old god said you couldn't tell, why did you tell Nanny?"

Gu Chongyang resisted the urge to roll his eyes at her, I don't talk about old gods, will you believe me?

Nanny Wu looked around nervously, and said worriedly: "Amitabha, Tongyan Wuji, Tongyan Wuji, they were all blown away by the strong wind, it's okay, it's okay!"

The thing about ghosts and gods is that if you believe it, it will exist, if you don't believe it, it will not exist.Since Nanny Wu gave Gu Chongyang the book that gave away evil spirits to ward off disasters, and still believed in it, it showed that she believed in the theory of ghosts and gods.

Gu Chongyang first mentioned the pain on Nanny Wu's body, and then used what happened yesterday to prove it. In addition, the old doctor Li Xingchun really made a wrong diagnosis, how could Nanny Wu not believe it?

Most importantly, in her heart, she was unwilling to believe that Gu Chongyang's mother was suffering from a fatal disease.Not to mention that what Gu Chongyang said was well-founded, even if there was no basis, she would probably want to try it.

Just like a drowning person, now that he has a straw, he must grab it tightly.What's more, what Gu Chongyang left behind was a log, which was far more reliable than straw, and Nanny Wu believed it without hesitation.

"Mommy, this is the medicine I made for my mother according to the prescription given by the old god. When there will be lotus root, I would like to ask you to grind the lotus root into juice and bring it to mother to drink with this medicinal juice. I drank it today. I won't vomit blood tomorrow."

Gu Chongyang paused, and added: "That's what the old god said."

"That old fairy..." Madam Wu had just finished speaking, but she thought that the secret must not be revealed, so she hurriedly turned around: "Miss, will this medicine cool down? Do you want me to take it down and hang it on the stove?"

"No need." Gu Chongyang said: "Mom's yin qi in her lungs is damaged, this medicine is a medicine for nourishing yin, so it should be cooled and drunk."

A look of admiration appeared on Mammy Wu's face: "Miss, you can remember so many words at such a young age, much better than Mammy."

Gu Chongyang couldn't help being startled when he heard that, he looked at Nanny Wu, and saw that she looked natural and nothing unusual, so he felt relieved.

"Mommy, I will only tell you about the old fairy, you must keep it a secret for me." Gu Chongyang said: "Also, when the lotus root juice is ready, you have to persuade mother to drink it. No matter how good the medicine is , mother does not drink, it is in vain."

Gu Chongyang looked at Nanny Wu expectantly.
