after marrying stepbrother

Chapter 259
Chapter 259
Jishitang sent staff to post notices in the east, west, south and north of the city, seeking free treatment for patients with difficult and miscellaneous diseases.

This time, it was Chengbei who was revealed, and a guy immediately stopped the person who revealed the list.

"Is there news so soon?"

Lin Yuesha had great confidence in female doctor Yan, because she had seen Lin Qian's medical skills before.

The younger generation of the same family of imperial physicians in the capital, it is impossible that they do not have a few brushes, but Ji Shitang sees that people are young, so they rely on the old to bully others.

Thinking of the 500 taels of silver that was about to be credited, Lin Yuesha was delighted, and she was even more concerned about it.

Lin Yuesha squeezed into the front row, and the one who unveiled the list was a middle-aged man with a frowning face, and the clerk of Jishitang was asking.

"It's my second brother. He usually delivers goods at the grocery store. There is nothing wrong with his health."

The middle-aged man sighed and talked about the situation of his second brother, "When I got home at noon the day before yesterday, I fell asleep without saying a word."

At first, the family didn't pay much attention to it. They had the habit of taking a break at noon and continued to work in the afternoon.

In the afternoon, the family went out one after another, and his second brother continued to sleep.

"My sister-in-law felt sorry for my second brother, thinking that he was too tired to wake him up."

As a result, at night, when the whole family returned home from work, his second brother still didn't wake up.

"Is there anything unusual about that?"

The clerk asked, and registered by the way, whether it is considered an intractable disease or not, I have to report it to the doctor in Jishitang.

However, he felt that this disease was a bit strange.

"Nothing unusual, just kept falling asleep."

The family thought that the second brother was too tired, so they waited all night to see someone early the next morning, but the second brother hadn't woken up yet.

Although he didn't wake up, his complexion was very bad, and his breath was a little weak.

The family also invited a doctor to take the pulse, but the doctor said that he had never seen such a disease, and suggested that his family should ask the doctor of Jishitang for consultation.

"Jishitang doesn't have 50 taels of silver, and the door can't get in. How can our family value it?"

The middle-aged man was squatting in the corner, rubbing his hair with his hands. Let alone 50 taels, it was five taels of silver.

Poor people can't afford medical care. If they get such a strange disease, they can only wait to die.

In desperation, the man heard that Ji Shitang was posting a list to find patients with intractable diseases. He was illiterate, so he begged an accountant to read the list, and immediately mustered up the courage to reveal the list.

This is the family's last chance.

"Little brother, can you intercede for my second brother, this is really..."

As the middle-aged man said, he grabbed a handful of copper plates from his patched purse, stuffed them into the clerk's hand, and begged.

"I will communicate with the owner, but nothing else can be guaranteed."

Even so, the guy from Jishitang still accepted the copper coin. Judging from his expression, it seemed that he disliked the man who gave him so little and was very dissatisfied.

Lin Yuesha squinted her eyes, feeling a little more disgusted with Ji Shitang.

From top to bottom, they are all unconscionable asking for money. As far as this medical ethics is concerned, the medical skills are not much better, just wait to be slapped in the face by the strict female doctor!
"Miss, it's really not easy to have a patient at home."

Bai Cha couldn't bear it, and thought of his younger brother's illness, the family went to relatives to borrow money, and they were kicked out by relatives in the cold weather.

Not lending a single coin, and adding more humiliation, at that time, Baicha gritted her teeth and decided to be a servant, as long as she had money to save her younger brother's life, it would be fine if she felt wronged.

It's better than kneeling and kowtowing to ask for help, in exchange for being indifferent and insulting.

"This drowsiness should be regarded as an intractable disease. When we go back, we will go to the shop of Dr. Yan first."

Lin Yuesha thought, why not send a message herself.As for whether she can help the man's second brother, it is not up to her to decide, it depends on the man's fortune.

"Miss, look, is that person Miss Jiang?"

Lin Yuesha and Baicha's attention was on Jishitang's clerk and the middle-aged man, Longjing was not interested in this, and looked around, just in time to see Jiang Baozhu.

"Longjing, are you reading it wrong?"

Lin Yuesha followed the direction Longjing was pointing at and saw a woman carrying a package and walking in a hurry.

The jacket and skirt inlaid with white fox fur on her body is exactly the same as Jiang Baozhu's, and her walking posture is also very similar.

That jacket was made when Xu was in good spirits, and Lin Yuesha had a similar one, so she decided that the person Longjing was referring to was Jiang Baozhu.

"This is the north of the city, why did Sister Baozhu come to the north of the city?"

The north of the city is where ordinary people live in Fucheng, and there are low-rise slums. Jiang Baozhu ran to the north of the city by herself without bringing her maids Xiaoxi and Xiaocui. It was very strange.

Lin Yuesha learned that Jiang Baozhu had no relatives in Fucheng, and if she had any contacts, she was the only one.

"White Tea, Longjing, let's follow and have a look."

Lin Yuesha was suspicious, and she was afraid that Jiang Baozhu would not be safe by herself, so she said to the two of them.

The three of them followed Jiang Baozhu quietly, keeping a distance that was neither too far nor too close.

"Miss, we are about to reach the edge of the city."

Baicha is from Fucheng, and his family lives in a small village not far from the north of the city, so he is quite familiar with the surrounding terrain.

Seeing that Jiang Baozhu's route was getting more and more deviated, she couldn't help reminding her young lady.

Not far ahead, there is a ruined temple. Because it was struck by lightning, all the beggars living in it moved out, saying that they were afraid of being punished by the gods. Looking at the direction Jiang Baozhu left, it seemed that he was going to the ruined temple.

"Let's wait here for a while before going over."

Lin Yuesha was more suspicious, but she thought, since Jiang Baozhu came out by herself without a maid, maybe she didn't want her privacy to be known.

Although the two are good sisters, they still need to leave some space for each other, and it is not appropriate to follow up rashly.

"But Miss..."

Bai Cha thought about it, her lady was right to do so, so she didn't continue talking.

The three masters and servants waited in place. After waiting for more than a quarter of an hour, Jiang Baozhu had long since disappeared.

Here, Jiang Baozhu looked around and saw that there was no one around. She was flustered and regretted coming alone.

Last night, she was walking in the backyard. At the corner door, there was a little beggar standing.

The little beggar kept waving at Jiang Baozhu. She thought that Jiang Baozhu was here to beg, so she got some snacks from the pavilion.

"Sister Baozhu, a scholar named Zhang asked me to bring a message. He asked you to meet at the ruined temple in the north of the city at noon tomorrow. He said he wanted to borrow 1000 taels of silver from you."

After the little beggar finished speaking, he took the snack and ran away without a trace, before Jiang Baozhu had time to ask.

Zhang Shusheng, could it be Zhang Jing?
Thinking of what the old monk at Yutan Temple said, Jiang Baozhu's heart sank. Maybe Zhang Jing was captured by a barbarian woman, and the other party wanted to make a deal with her, so she let the little beggar spread the word.

After much deliberation, Jiang Baozhu stayed up all night and decided to save Zhang Jing.
