There are folk songs spread in Mang County.
"There are scholars in the north, big and small win the right name.
The big forest hangs a plaque, and the small forest protects the family's silver. "
A year ago, the Lin brothers' fight for the position of head of the family caused quite a stir.
Lin Tingzheng, Dalin, became the head of the family as the eldest son and hung the plaque of "Lin Mansion" in the courtyard of his house.
Xiao Lin Gangzheng compensated with the Lin family's most profitable "Lin Xuan" rice paper formula.
This stopped the Lin family's internal fighting.
In ancient times, "money" was far from being compared with "fame".
Brother Lin Gangzheng is not satisfied with running his own paper factory.
I visited Mr. Lin several times and finally convinced him to make the decision for him.
I wanted to use Lin Xiang'er's death to accuse Lin Tingzheng of "it is unlucky for this person to take over the Lin family".
Unexpectedly, Lin Xiang'er came back to life, which made Lin Gangzheng unable to swallow for several consecutive days.
At noon, Doctor Xue was invited back again.
A few days ago, it was Dr. Xue who declared that Miss Lin was beyond recovery.
When he was young, Divine Doctor Xue served as the director of the Imperial Hospital of the former Dynasty. He had students all over the country and his reputation spread far and wide.
Not only is his medical skill the best in the world, he is also ranked among the top five.
This man was very old and highly respected wherever he was.
But when Lin Gangzheng saw him today, he couldn't maintain the dignity of a member of a noble family. He sat on the main seat and slapped the empty tea cup on the table with a loud clang.
"Doctor Xue, how do you explain it now? It was you who said that Lin Xiang'er would definitely die and that it would be difficult for gods to cure her. Now, Lin Xiang'er is living well there."
After hearing this, Divine Doctor Xue smacked his dry lips and tried his best to open his eyes wide to show his surprise: "How is this possible?"
"You said that Lin Xiang'er was frail and had been infected with the epidemic for two months. Her body was already overstretched. Just a little stimulation of her emotions would inevitably lead to her sudden death at home. A mere untouchable from a poor family, relying on a few silver needles, only half a After a while, Lin Xiang'er's complexion improved. This is a fact that the entire Lin clan has witnessed with their own eyes! Doctor Xue, is this what you call a method?"
"A son from a poor family can actually use acupuncture to resolve the disease of qi and blood stasis?" Doctor Xue stroked his beard, thoughtfully.
Lin Gangzheng was impatient and said angrily: "I don't care about this. This matter happened because of you. You must find another way to promote his death. If I can't be the head of the Lin family, no one will recommend the descendants of your Xue family to become officials in the future." Don't forget, although you are a miracle doctor, you are also a medical officer of the previous dynasty. This is a stain that will never be erased in your life. No noble family is willing to stand up for people like you. Apart from me, your Xue family has no other choice. !”
The ruthless reality stimulated the old man, and his old face, which had already been buried for seven minutes, suddenly became solemn, and the last trace of blood was gone.
For the future of the Xue family, he could only support Lin Gangzheng to win the position of head of the Lin family.
Only with the joint and several liability of the gentry can the Xue family be freed from the label of rebellious ministers of the previous dynasty. Otherwise, generations of people will never be qualified to enter the officialdom, and their status will be lower than that of ordinary poor families.
Doctor Xue thought about it, and then he calmly responded: "Mr. Lin, don't worry, even if Miss Lin's qi and blood disease is cured, there is absolutely no chance of curing the tuberculosis that the old man personally took root in her body."
No one would have thought that the root cause of Miss Lin's illness was actually caused by the doctor Xue.
For Lin Xiang'er, Lin Gangzheng and Doctor Xue have been planning for a long time.
Lin Gangzheng snorted: "Doctor Xue, the incurable disease you mentioned is unbelievable. I'm wondering, could this be because your old man suddenly realized his conscience and couldn't do anything to a little girl?"
"From the first day I came here, there was no turning back."
"That's good. When you go to the Lin Mansion, you'll give Lin Xiang'er a follow-up consultation and see how she's doing."
…
At this time, Bai Song returned to the woodshed, holding a pair of old hands that smelled like a young lady, and was filled with emotion.
"These ancient women are so good. They are all natural, pollution-free, and even taste extraordinary."
Smelling the scent on her hands, her soul has drifted into the lady's warm and fragrant nephrite.
He said in his heart that he had cured Ms. Lin's terminal illness this time, and let's see how the Lin family would thank him.
Bai Song had already thought about it. It was okay to be a son-in-law, but it couldn't be just in name. There had to be actual actions.
From now on, I will live with Miss Lin. Even if I can't do anything right away, my relationship will heat up quickly after living in the same house.
In my previous life, I was busy with scientific research and never had a serious relationship with my girlfriend. In this life, I must first find a wife who comes to my door.
Thinking about it, the woodshed door opened.
My sister came into the house covered in dust and looked a little embarrassed.
It looks like the hole in the backyard is not easy to drill.
Seeing this girl, Bai Song immediately thought of delicious food, and his stomach growled.
But then I looked around and saw that the girl had nothing in her hands.
Bai Song was anxious: "Where's the food?"
Bai Rou patted the dust on her body, feeling a little aggrieved: "Brother, I'm a little scared."
"Afraid?"
"I'm afraid of being suspected. Not many people in the county know that my brother and I have no money. If the Lin family finds out, they will definitely say that we stole it. Brother, I have thought about it. There are often business transactions outside Mang County. We have to do it." I’ll take the opportunity to buy some necessary things outside the city, so I won’t arouse any suspicion.”
Bai Rou was very serious, blinking her clear eyes, like a high school student with excellent academic performance.
Bai Song knew in his heart that since the last time his brother was beaten because of his greed, this little girl was really scared.
Bai Song rubbed his sister's head and nodded: "I didn't think carefully."
Bai Rou's worries are right. Mang County is owned by the Lin family. No matter where you buy something, there is always a risk that the Lin family will find out.
It’s hard to explain the extra money out of thin air, and you really can’t spend it casually.
He couldn't spend the money he had in hand, so Bai Song could only find another way.
After eating porridge and vegetables for three or four days, Bai Song felt gloomy.
I might as well go directly to my future wife. After a few days of contact, I'm no longer unfamiliar with her. I touched her buttocks earlier, and with skin-to-skin contact, it's not too much to ask for some decent food from my wife.
After thinking about it, Bai Song asked his sister to wait in the firewood shed and went back to Lin Xiang'er's boudoir.
When he arrived at the young lady's room, Bai Song found several people standing in front of the door, including three or two families and housekeeper Liu.
"What's happening here?"
When Butler Liu met Bai Song, his expression was calm, but his words were less domineering than before: "Doctor Xue is here to review the lady."
"What Doctor Xue? I will take care of the young lady's illness. She will be cured in a few days."
"Hmph!" Steward Liu snorted coldly, "Boy, you have some skills. I adjusted the medicine according to your instructions, and my energy and energy have indeed improved a lot in the past few days. But with your three-legged cat skills You can question Divine Doctor Xue? You simply don’t know the heights of the world.”
"Since it's a follow-up consultation, shouldn't this Divine Doctor Xue be the one who asserted that Miss Xue is incurable? The people he said couldn't be cured have now been cured by me. Butler Liu would like to talk about what he, Divine Doctor Xue, is like. Where is God?”
"You are still pretending to be a fool here! Doctor Xue said that the only thing you cured was the poor Qi and blood of the young lady, and you are also helpless to deal with the diseases on the young lady's body?"
Just as he was talking, the door suddenly opened.
Lin Tingzheng personally escorted a rickety old man out.
This is Doctor Xue.
Doctor Xue didn't pay attention to Bai Song. He held his hands with a smile and congratulated him repeatedly: "Mr. Lin, I'm very happy to congratulate you! Miss's illness has eased. As long as she takes my decoction, she will be able to save her life. But we need to hurry up these days." Miss, please rest and don't be exposed to wind or cold. I'll come back to check your pulse another day."
"Thank you so much to Dr. Xue for your help. Lin Tingzheng has nothing to repay for your life-saving grace."
The two of them exchanged polite greetings in front of the door. Doctor Xue finally turned around and left. He turned back for a moment and met Bai Song's eyes.
At this time, there was no smile on the old man's face anymore, and his lifeless face was shrouded in a dark cloud.
