The speaker was a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, and the person lying next to him should be his younger brother.
"If you don't have money, why do you need medical treatment? Our pharmacy is not a charity. There are so many poor people who cannot afford medical treatment. Everyone is like you. Why should our pharmacy continue to do business?"
The pharmacy clerk looked impatient and wanted to drive them away.
The boy knelt on the ground and grabbed the clerk's trouser leg without letting go, crying: "As long as I can save my brother, I can do anything. I can stay here and work for your drug store to pay back the money."
"Go aside and don't hinder our business!"
The waiter kicked the boy away, turned around and saw An Ruowan and Caihuan walking in from outside.
"Miss, are you going to see a doctor or get medicine?"
"Get the medicine according to this list."
An Ruowan handed over a medicine list, glanced at the two children on the ground, and asked, "What's going on with these two children?"
The waiter clicked his tongue and said with some disgust: "They are two brothers. A few days ago, the younger one had a high fever for unknown reasons and came to our place for treatment. Our shopkeeper kindly treated him."
He sighed softly, "But this minor illness is rare and cannot be cured at all. It is useless to stay here with us. Being poor can kill people. Why not go home and make arrangements to give your brother something good to eat!"
An Ruowan looked at the two brothers who were kneeling on the ground, holding each other tightly and relying on each other, and suddenly said.
"Can I borrow your inner room?"
With that said, he winked at Caihuan again. Just as the clerk was about to refuse, Caihuan thrust a bag of silver into his hand.
Looking at the heavy bag of silver, the waiter couldn't hide the smile on his face and said hurriedly: "Boss, wait outside, I'll go ask our shopkeeper!"
Seeing the clerk enter the backyard, his last hope was completely shattered. Huzi could only pick up his brother with a sad face and prepare to leave the drug store.
An Ruowan called him from behind, "I can save your brother."
"Really?!"
Huzi looked happy after hearing this, and then stopped.
He looked at the young lady in front of him. Although she was kind-hearted, she was still young and had a disease that even the doctors at Xinglin Hall could not cure. Was she really sure that she could cure it?
An Ruowan didn't explain, just stared at Huzi seriously and said, "If you want to save your brother, just listen to me."
As soon as he finished speaking, the waiter raised the curtain and shouted earnestly towards An Ruowan: "Our shopkeeper agrees! Miss Lao Lei, please take two steps with me!"
An Ruowan nodded, turned to Huzi and said calmly, "Pick your brother up and follow me."
Huzi did not dare to hesitate, picked up his younger brother and followed An Ruowan.
No matter what, he would give it a try even if there was only a one percent chance.
An Ruowan asked Huzi to put his brother on the recliner, and then ordered him to get a basin of hot water.
The boy on the recliner looked flushed. An Ruowan reached out and touched his forehead, which was very hot to the touch.
She soaked the towel in a basin of hot water, wrung it out and applied it to her brother's forehead.
An Ruowan wiped her hands, asked the waiter for paper and pen, and wrote a prescription, "Grab the medicine and fry it according to the instructions above, as fast as possible."
After handling these matters, Caihuan handed over the silver needle and said, "Miss, I have scalded it with the candle flame as you requested."
Seeing the silver needles pricking his brother one after another, Huzi clenched his clothes tightly and became very nervous, fearing that something might happen to his brother.
The last needle fell, and a thin layer of sweat covered An Ruowan's head.
Caihuan quickly stepped forward and wiped her sweat.
Huzi asked anxiously: "Miss, how is my brother?"
"These silver needles can only reduce fever, and you need to take medicine later." An Ruowan turned to look at Caihuan, "Go and see if the medicine is ready."
As soon as he finished speaking, the clerk from the drug store came in with medicine.
"Put it aside."
An Ruowan probed her brother's forehead again. After the body temperature dropped, she began to take out the silver needle.
After taking out the needle, she said to Huzi: "You can give him medicine."
"Thank you, Miss! Huzi cannot repay Miss's great kindness! If there is any need for Huzi in the future, Huzi will not hesitate to do so!"
Huzi kowtowed to An Ruowan twice, then stepped forward to help his brother up, holding the medicine bowl and slowly tilting it to feed the medicine.
An Ruowan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the medicine poured into his brother's mouth bit by bit.
Fortunately, it was not serious and I could drink the medicine.
An Ruowan asked Caihuan to grab a few more packets of medicine and give them to Huzi. She carefully warned: "Take these medicines and soak them in cold water for a quarter of an hour. After the fire boils, simmer them on a low fire for half an hour, twice a day. , need to be taken after meals.”
Huzi looked gloomy, and after a long time he said nervously: "I...I don't have a home anymore..."
"My mother ran away with someone early in the morning. My father was a gambler and owed a lot of money to the gambling house. Those people came to ask for money and took away all the valuable things in the house. They also said they would sell us. I took it with me My younger brother fled to the capital, but he fell ill just a few days after arriving..."
An Ruo looked at Huzi at night. He was a little taller than her, but his skin was tanned and his hands were covered with calluses. It was obvious that he was a hard-working child.
There really is a place for him.
"I can take you two brothers in, but I have to guarantee that you can only listen to my orders."
Huzi's eyes widened, and he knelt on the ground in ecstasy and kowtowed to An Ruowan twice more before he stopped.
An Ruowan renamed them, "From now on, you will be called Changfeng, and your brother will be called Changlin."
"Changfeng thanked Miss!"
An Ruowan smiled and said, "I'm not a few years older than you, just call me sister Wan."
On the carriage, An Ruowan said to the driver: "Go to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion."
After she was reborn, she had not yet visited her grandfather's family.
In her last life, she mistakenly believed the traitor's slander and broke off all contact with the Zhenguo Duke's government. But in the end, she realized what a ridiculous thing she had done!
My grandfather's family was made loyal and loyal, and in the end he ended up being a treason and collaborator with the enemy, and his entire family was executed!
Just as she was thinking a lot, the coachman's voice came from outside.
"Miss, the general's residence has arrived."
As An Ruowan got off the station and settled down, the boy guarding the door saw her from a distance and called out tentatively: "Miss Cousin?"
An Ruowan was startled. In the past year, apart from the time she had just been found, she also came back once for her grandfather's birthday. She didn't expect that the boy guarding the door could recognize her appearance.
After instructing the boy to settle down the two brothers Chang Feng and Chang Lin, An Ruowan walked in with Cai Huan.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw the Duke's wife walking towards her quickly.
"Wan'er? Is it really you?"
The words "Wan'er" made the corners of her eyes sore. Only people from the Duke's Mansion would call her "Wan'er" affectionately.
When she spoke, An Ruowan's voice was obviously hoarse, "Grandma, it's really me."
"I just heard my servant say you are here. I thought it was because I was old and had auditory hallucinations in my ears. I didn't expect it was really you."
The Duke's wife held An Ruowan's hand tightly, tears streaming down her face.
"Let's go, grandma asked the kitchen to make your favorite anchovy fins. You'll stay here for dinner today before going back."
As the Duke's wife said this, she pulled An Ruowan towards the main hall.
As soon as he sat down, a cheerful voice came from outside the hall.
"My cousin is here later?"
