Nongmen's clever daughter-in-law: hook a general and give birth to a cub

Chapter 572 Dumb
"You... have you remembered something?"

From the moment the little girl was rescued from the valley, she refused to say a word for a whole year, as if she was dumb, and she just listened silently to others when they spoke, never interjecting a word .

until one day……

"Master, you said that you had to let me travel all the way to the capital to treat Mrs. Liu's illness, and now I'm on the mend! They didn't give us much money, and we were scolded for making such a trip for nothing. "

The lady of the Liu family can be regarded as a born scumbag, just showing off her might all day long, never paying attention to the servants and maids around her, even the doctor who came to save her life like him was treated as useless. Little people with no brains have always been shunned by good looks.

If it wasn't for the master's fate, he wouldn't be bothered to suffer such anger.

"I said you brat, if I told you to go to the doctor to save lives, you just go to the doctor to save people! When did you start whining like a little girl?"

The old man said with a snort, and glared fiercely at the big apprentice who was in a state of embarrassment. He guessed that after traveling through mountains and rivers, in order to save a few taels of money for accommodation, he must have mixed with those beggars again, "Master Liu We agreed to give us 100 taels of silver. You'd better give me all the money. If you dare to keep a tael secretly, I won't break your legs. We have the rules of Medicine Valley , the rewards that should be given to you will not be less, but if you do some sneaky things like before, don't blame me as a master for being ruthless and let you be a medicine man!"

After finishing speaking in one breath, his face turned red.

The eldest apprentice rolled his eyes helplessly, and took out a heavy bag of silver from his bag, snap!He threw it on the wooden table with a bang, "Here is a total of 100 taels of silver. Mr. Liu is indeed a trustworthy person, and he did not give us a tael less, but the lady is too much, if it is not for my money Trying my best to find a way to heal the problems on her two legs, she must be paralyzed on the bed right now."

Thinking about being scolded so badly, I couldn't help feeling aggrieved.

Everyone says that practitioners should be respected by patients, after all, they are the ones who do everything possible to keep their lives in danger, but!There will always be one or two people who don't know what to do, like this Mrs. Liu, who will hit people like crazy when there is a little pain during acupuncture.

Hey!
The old man counted the silver in the bag, 100 taels, one tael is not bad, and then he sighed heavily, "Mrs. Liu really has something wrong with her mind. Master Liu doesn't want to lose his wife, so he is so reluctant." She stays in the mansion, and she is rarely allowed to go outside alone."

"Crazy?"

"Congenital deficiency, there seems to be something missing in this brain."

I personally went out to the mountains to check the pulse of this Mrs. Liu, and treated her illness. After a year of tossing around, I used all the prescriptions and treatments available in the medical books, but in the end, I found nothing, and the condition was still not bad.

but……

"When my master was still alive, he once said that there is an extremely vicious spell in this world that can take out the most nourishing things in people's brains."

"The most nourishing... in your mind?"

"Ah."

The eldest apprentice asked in a daze, and the old man only had a half-knowledge, "Things have passed for so many years, and my master, as a teacher, has also encountered a disease that is very similar to Mrs. Liu's symptoms. It is also because there is a piece of brain missing, but it is not Know what the missing piece is."

Having practiced medicine for decades, he has read countless medical books, and knows a thing or two about strange symptoms, but there is nothing he can do about this disease.

Anyway...

"There are some things that we should stay away from. Although we don't know whether there are really existences in the sky and on the earth that are different from ordinary people, we would rather believe it or not, and don't step into the muddy water when it is not necessary, so as not to Get yourself into trouble, understand?"

Healing diseases and saving lives is what a doctor should do, and it is also his duty, but other than that, it is best to control the eager curiosity in his heart, and he must not shoot himself in the foot, let alone hurt the innocent people around him.

"Master, I seldom see you being so timid about certain things. Aren't you a genius doctor who is fearless? When will you start..."

Snapped!
Before he could finish his sentence, the old man slapped the big apprentice on the head, "It's only been less than a month since I went out, and the ability to speak has grown a lot, and I will let you say everything that should be said and should not be said." Hurry up and get me into the house and take a good hot bath to wash off your bad luck!"

Hey!

The eldest apprentice who was used to being beaten by Mrs. Liu smirked twice, scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, said nothing more, and went back to his east room obediently, but before he had time to take off the dirty clothes on his body, he saw a A small figure flashed out from the bed and threw itself into his arms.

"elder brother!"

"what?"

"Brother, I really miss you, I really miss you so much."

The little girl said with snot and tears, she almost fainted from crying, hugged her strong waist tightly, and didn't dislike the dirt on her body, let alone the sour smell that came out , "Brother, didn't you promise me and my sister to stay by our side all the time? Why did you leave without saying goodbye? Why did you leave us in this terrible valley?"

"I said, where did you come from, a little girl? I'm not your big brother. Did you recognize the wrong person? Or did you get lost in this valley?"

Medicine Valley has been filled with fog and miasma all year round. If he didn’t take the elixir that his master practiced every day, he himself would not be able to stay here for a long time. go back."

Occasionally, people in the surrounding small villages would get lost in the valley. Every time he met them, they would be sent back to the village directly. Occasionally, those who were weak were fainted by the smog and poison, and they would be taken back to the pharmacy for treatment for a few days. The person gradually came to his senses, asked about the origin, and had to send out the medicine valley that day.

After all, my master is too hypocritical and doesn't like outsiders to disturb the quietness of their master and apprentice. Whenever they are a little angry, they will be furious.

but!
"This is your little junior sister, who will live with us in this pharmacy from now on."

"What?"

The sudden change really made people feel overwhelmed for a while, staring at a pair of eyes full of doubts, first looked up and down the little girl in his arms, and then looked at the master with great puzzlement, "Master , Could it be that I heard it wrong? Aren’t you only willing to accept me as an apprentice? When do you want to get me another junior sister?”
