The Pastoral Medicinal Fragrance of the Imperial Concubine

180 Chapter 3 No Backing ([-])
Hao Dan agreed, and let go of the two big wolf dogs, letting them wander in the yard by themselves.

"It's New Year's Eve, better be careful!" Hao Shi muttered, and drove Leng Ping back to the house to warm up, Hao Ren went to read a book, and he went to wash the dishes.

Leng Ping had nothing else to do anyway, so she went up to help Hao's wash the dishes, talked by the way, and boiled a large pot of water to wash her feet.

Seeing Leng Ping's sleepy look, Hao Shi wanted to say something, but didn't know where to start, so she silently set fire to her.

Leng Ping sat aside, looking at the crackling flames, not knowing how to go on this road.

Mrs. Ruan is gone, so she can't go to the Ping'an Pharmacy. She knows how to see a doctor and doesn't know how to farm. What can she do in the countryside?
Just as Leng Ping was thinking, she heard someone banging on the door, which seemed to be the voice of the son of a bitch next door.

"Let me go take a look!" Hao Shi quickly stood up and went to open the door. With the cold wind blowing outside, Leng Ping could vaguely hear Goushengniang crying, as if something went wrong with Goushengniang.

Leng Ping sat up, put on her shoes and went out.

Hao Shi and Gou Sheng Niang ran over, and said anxiously: "Ping'er, go and have a look, Gou Sheng has a convulsion!"

Leng Ping quickly took the medicine box and ran over.

In Gousheng's house, under a faint yellow oil lamp, an eight-year-old Gousheng was lying on the ground, his whole body twitching and rolling his eyes. Leng Ping stepped forward and touched him, his whole body was hot.

"I have to go to the riverside to play during the day, and I refuse to come back no matter how loud I am. I feel dizzy when I drink the afternoon soup, and now I collapse on the ground and can't get up!" Yuan Kui said hastily.

Leng Ping immediately concluded that it was convulsions caused by fever and infection, which is common in children, but Gou Sheng is eight years old... Maybe because Gou Sheng is weak, Leng Ping immediately opened the medicine box and took Gastrodia elata and Fangfeng , Notopterygium and other medicines, but the whole scorpion alone.

"No full scorpion!" Leng Ping muttered, looking at the sky outside, feeling a little worried.

The scorpion is the key to this medicine, and it is mainly used to treat convulsions. If it is missing, the efficacy of the medicine will be greatly reduced!
"Mom, I'm going to the city with Hao Ren!" Leng Ping said, got up and ran out.

"It's so late at night..." Hao Shi shouted anxiously.

Leng Ping had long since disappeared.

Fortunately, Taiping Village is not far from the city, and there are horse-drawn carriages, so an hour is enough to go back and forth.

When Hao Ren heard that he was going to save someone, he immediately became unambiguous and wanted to drive the car himself, but when he went out, he ran into Yuan Kui, who insisted on driving, so Hao Ren stayed at home and asked Yuan Kui to take Leng Ping with him. Huhu rushed to the city.

Now that Ping'an Pharmacy is closed, Leng Ping had no choice but to go to Sifang Pharmacy.

Sifang Pharmacy had already closed the door, and Leng Ping knocked on the door vigorously before calling out.

It was Xia Liming, the shopkeeper of Sifang Pharmacy, who came out. After seeing clearly that it was Leng Ping by the candlelight, he slowly turned around, sat on the teacher's chair and said with a smile: "Yo, who did I think it was? The genius doctor is here, why? What can you do?"

Although Leng Ping treats those wives and young ladies with invisible diseases, not many people know about Leng Ping, but in Xinglin, Leng Ping's reputation has long been spread all over the world!Coupled with Leng Ping's yelling at Sifang Pharmacy before, Xia Liming naturally regarded Leng Ping as a thorn in his side!
"Master Xia, I want 21 full scorpions!" Leng Ping said quickly, and took out some broken silver, "This is medicine money!"

Xia Liming looked at the pieces of silver, and said with a smile: "Master Leng really knows the price of this medicine, it's just that this scorpion is sold for twenty yuan a piece, but it's not that much when it's sold to you." Already!"

Leng Ping frowned and said, "My boss, we'll talk about our business later. This is to save lives. Tell me, how much do you want?"

Xia Liming sneered, "You can do whatever you want, two taels of silver for one, 21 for 40 taels, I'll count you [-] taels of silver, how about it?"

When Yuan Kui heard this, he almost fainted, and his face suddenly turned pale.

40 taels of silver, it is not worth selling their family!

"You are cheating, when did scorpions become so expensive?" Leng Ping gritted her teeth with hatred.

"The scorpion in our store is at this price. If you think it's too expensive, go to another place. Let's go, we have to rest!" Xia Liming immediately drove the two of them outside.

Leng Ping gritted her teeth, it seemed that Xia Liming was going against her, but Gou Sheng's illness could not be delayed, so she immediately took out the 50 taels of silver she got from Mrs. Ruan today, and put it in the in front of Xia Liming, "I want it!"

Xia Liming immediately beamed with joy, and turned around to fetch the scorpion.

"Hao Ren's family..." Yuan Kui's legs were trembling, how could he pay back the 40 taels of silver?

"Uncle, you don't need to pay it back!" Leng Ping said in a low voice, staring at Xia Liming fiercely, that gaze might pierce Xia Liming's back.

This scorpion is not easy to catch, and Sifang Pharmacy only has dozens of them. Xia Liming wrapped it up, turned around and said with a smile: "Do you want anything else, Doctor Leng? Save me change!"

Leng Ping sneered, "No need!"

Xia Liming then found a ten taels of silver ingot for Leng Ping, took the 50 taels of silver ingot and weighed it, proudly said: "Miss Gan of the Ruan family is naturally generous, it's a pity, now that the Ruan family is leaving I don't know who will support you!"

Leng Ping didn't want to waste words with him, so she took Yuan Kui out.

On the way back, Leng Ping was sitting on the bullock cart, the cold wind was blowing, making her face hurt, but there was a raging fire burning in her heart.

This Xia Liming is a big profiteer, she will take revenge for this sooner or later.

Along the way, Yuan Kui felt uncomfortable. It was 40 taels of silver, which he could never earn in his lifetime. Although the shopkeeper charged a high price for Leng Ping, Leng Ping was also for his dog. How can I pay back this favor?
Gou Sheng's house, Gou Sheng Niang and Hao Shi had been waiting anxiously for a long time, they went to stand at the door regardless of the cold, and finally watched the bright lights coming over bit by bit, and then they hurried forward.

"Have you bought it yet?" Gou Sheng Niang asked anxiously.

Yuan Kui was too cold to speak.

Leng Ping jumped out of the car, nodded, and hurried to make medicine for Gou Sheng.

Gousheng is better now, the smoke is not so severe, but he still feels hot all over.

Leng Ping was boiling medicine in the house, while outside, Yuan Kui was trembling and talking about what happened tonight, which made the leftover mother turn pale with fright.

40 taels of silver...

Although Hao Shi also felt sorry for the silver, but she also knew that Leng Ping provoked the lawsuit outside, so she said a few words of relief.

Leng Ping boiled the medicine, blew it cold, gave it to Gou Sheng, and forcefully opened his teeth to drink it down!
The medicine took effect quickly, but after a stick of incense, Gou Sheng no longer twitched, but his face was still a little red.
