"It is said that a noble son comes from a poor family. When I saw him today, it turned out to be true." Lin Gangzheng changed from his normal behavior and actually praised Bai Song, "Brother, you still have the vision to recruit such a good son-in-law. Think about how many people in the family were there back then. People want to see your jokes, and now that niece Xiang'er can be well, you are the biggest winner."
Lin Gangzheng is very sincere and has a lot of effort on his face.
This praise made Lin Xiang'er's face look a little brighter.
This was the first time that she brought Bai Song to meet guests face-to-face, and it took a lot of courage. She was always worried that Bai Song would be left out, and she didn't know how to respond.
Fortunately, the second uncle was not as mean as expected, which made Lin Xiang'er relax a lot.
After all, Lin Xiang'er was young and didn't know the sinister nature of people's hearts, so she didn't hear her second uncle's overt praise and covert derogatory intentions.
But when Lin Tingzheng, the head of the Lin family, heard these words, his expression instantly darkened!
The leader of a noble family, his daughter's life needs to be married into a child from a poor family. What's even more ridiculous is that it is the medical skills of this disciple from a poor family that save his daughter's life.
Lin Tingzheng would never admit this result, even if Bai Song's contribution was really involved, he would not admit it in front of his younger brother.
"What the second brother said is wrong. The improvement of Xiang'er's disease is all due to the wholehearted care of Divine Doctor Xue. It is also thanks to the second brother who spared no effort to invite such a powerful person to Xiang'er. Brother Fool doesn't know how to appreciate this kindness. How to repay. As for this person... he has been married into my Lin family to celebrate Xiang'er's marriage from the very beginning. It is his fault, not his own."
Lin Gang was smiling and did not refute. Instead, he turned to Xiang'er and asked with a smile: "Xiang'er's niece is now a married woman and has been married for more than a month. When can your father have a grandson?"
Lin Xiang'er's pretty face turned red, she lowered her head shyly, and said softly: "Second uncle, don't make fun of me. I was seriously ill a few days ago, so how can I have any thoughts..."
"Isn't your illness better now? You will have some thoughts, right?" Lin Gangzheng said, then turned to Bai Song, "As my Lin family's son-in-law, I should work hard so that Xiang'er can give birth to a chubby boy. , you have done a great job, you can’t take it lightly.”
Bai Songzhi frowned. He was not a child. As soon as he heard it, he knew that it was his second uncle who was fanning the flames.
Sure enough, Lin Tingzheng's face turned from gloomy to dark after hearing this, and the anger in his eyes was about to burst out.
I looked at Bai Song with displeasure before, but now I just want to strangle him to death.
If I had known that my daughter could turn the crisis around, why would I trust fortune tellers to bring good luck to my daughter?
It's good now that the identity of this son-in-law from a poor family is known to the whole city. If he stays at home, he will be an eyesore. He will definitely become the laughing stock of the whole family in the future.
Especially in the "Little Sui Ping" half a month later, the disciples of the major gentry clans in Youzhou didn't know how to use this statement.
Lin Tingzheng was thinking about how to drive this guy out of the Lin family. But at this time, the second brother asked for a grandson. How could Lin Tingzheng not be angry?
The key is that the fire in his heart cannot be revealed. He is the head of the Lin family and must be dignified in everything.
If Bai Song was driven away regardless of the reason, the Lin family's reputation would be ruined if word spread.
This Bai Song really ruined a pot of soup with a rat's droppings!
Lin Ting's expression was uncertain for a long time. Bai Song interrupted: "Second uncle, let's get down to business."
"Oh...yes, yes...business matters! Niece Xiang'er, this is Doctor Xue's unique secret recipe. You may not know that Doctor Xue has used this recipe to cure several people in the western suburbs from the plague. It can be said that the medicine has reached its peak. The disease is cured." Lin Gangzheng's expression was mysterious, not like he was joking.
Lin Tingzheng also adjusted his posture, straightened his body, and said righteously: "I have also heard something. This morning in the western suburbs, a secret medicine called 'fairy water' appeared. Twenty ounces per pill can be used by those suffering from the plague. He got better within half an hour, which is a miracle."
"The matter spread on the first day?" Bai Song was suspicious. He expected that the fairy water would need three or two days to ferment before more people knew about it. Unexpectedly, the news spread to the Lin Mansion in just one night.
"Since the Lin Mansion knows that the fairy water appeared in the western suburbs, Lin Ting should know that this fairy water was not made by Divine Doctor Xue."
Bai Song felt a lot of uncertainty in his heart, but what Doctor Xue said next made Bai Song horrified.
"Mr. Lin, it's not that I have to do anything unnecessary. It's just that the secret recipe of the fairy water has been leaked, so I have to be careful."
Lin Tingzheng exclaimed: "Leaked? Why did the miracle doctor say this?"
"You don't know. I am not treating Miss Lin alone. Many plague patients outside the city are all living beings in the world. In line with the benevolence of a doctor, I will save anyone who is in trouble. I prepared the fairy water a few days ago. I once cured a patient in the western suburbs. I didn’t expect that the patient in the western suburbs was not grateful after his recovery. Instead, he borrowed my secret recipe for fairy water and sold it to make money. Now all the fairy water sold in the western suburbs is made from my formula. In order to prevent the secret recipe from being revealed further, I can only watch Miss Lin drink the medicine to ensure that no traces are left."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present looked shocked.
Lin Tingzheng was furious: "How can there be such a shameless person in the world?! This... this is simply repaying kindness with hatred! Are you really a pariah in the western suburbs, born humble, how can you be grateful?"
Bai Song clenched his hands into fists, his joints crackling, his face was drained of blood, and his cheeks were trembling with anger.
Bai Song almost couldn't hold it back and wanted to jump out and punch the old guy to death.
With such a character, he is still a miracle doctor?
This is not at all about borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha, this is about taking the "fairy water" as one's own!
"What’s wrong with you?"
When she was angry, Lin Xiang'er asked weakly from beside her, "Why do you look so bad all of a sudden?"
The daughter-in-law is the honeypot, and just one sentence gave Bai Song a little bit of coolness in his almost out-of-control heart.
Bai Song knew his situation. If he jumped out at this time, he would not be able to expose this old lie. He could only make himself the target of public criticism.
Moreover, it is not yet clear what the purpose of this old immortal is.
If he was doing it for money, he wouldn't be using it in the name of fairy water.
If it was just to watch Lin Xiang'er take medicine in person, there would be no need to go through such a big circle.
"Doctor Xue, how about you give me this fairy water to try first? I am willing to test the medicine for you."
Bai Song stood up.
Testing medicine for young ladies is nothing new. Lin Tingzheng and Doctor Xue both nodded.
Only Lin Xiang'er looked at Bai Song with a reminding look.
Bai Song said lightly: "Don't worry, it's okay."
After saying that, Bai Song took the "fairy water" and put it in front of him to smell it.
Judging from the taste and color, this "fairy water" is exactly the same as my own "fairy water".
Tried another bite.
Bai Song confirmed that this "fairy water" was indeed the "fairy water" prepared by himself.
This old man must have bought it from the Qu family.
"How is it? Is there no problem?" Doctor Xue asked with a smile.
Bai Song frowned and did not answer immediately.
Lin Xiang'er asked: "Can I drink it?"
Bai Song nodded and handed a bowl of "fairy water" to Lin Xiang'er.
Although Lin Xiang'er did not suffer from malaria, the "fairy water" still had a preventive effect and was harmless to the body.
In the future, Bai Song plans to announce the formula to the county government. He also hopes that the county magistrate can use the power of the court to let all the people near Mang County have a sip of "fairy water", which can effectively control the spread of malaria.
Seeing Bai Song nodding, Lin Xiang'er felt relieved, drank the medicine in one gulp, and handed the medicine bowl back to Doctor Xue.
When Doctor Xue saw Lin Xiang'er drinking the medicine, he showed a satisfied expression and handed over to Lin Tingzheng: "Mr. Lin, from now on, you don't have to be in isolation or take medicine. My work has finally come to an end."
"What?" Lin Tingzheng was a little surprised, "Doctor Xue, are you saying that my daughter is completely healed? No need for isolation? No more hidden diseases at all?"
"Exactly! Miss Lin looks even better now than before she got sick."
Previously, the family members were happy to see Lin Xiang'er getting better day by day, but without the doctor's approval, they always felt a little uneasy.
Now, Doctor Xue said that Miss Lin has recovered without any sequelae and is considered a completely healthy girl.
Lin Tingzheng's eyes finally flashed with tears.
The suffering of nearly three months is finally over.
Miss Lin has been sick for three months, and the entire Lin family has also been sick for three months.
At this moment, there was finally a successful outcome.
When Lin Xiang'er heard this, even though she was wary of Doctor Xue, she couldn't help but smile and looked back at Bai Song.
Lin Tingzheng was excited and held Doctor Xue's hand tightly, speechless.
Lin Gangzheng was at a loss as to what the purpose of Doctor Xue was.
Bai Song also didn't understand. Could it be that Doctor Xue had made such a big circle just to show that Miss Lin had recovered?
Didn't you always want to harm Lin Xiang'er before?
Why has it suddenly changed now?
Lin Tingzheng was excited for a long time and finally said something.
"The Lin family has nothing to repay for the great kindness of Doctor Xue. I would like to offer you a hundred taels of silver and ten pairs of jewels..."
The Lin family is short of money, but in order to thank Doctor Xue, Lin Tingzheng is willing to do whatever it takes!
But Divine Doctor Xue refused sternly and uprightly: "It is the duty of a doctor to treat illnesses and save people. I am not treating Miss Lin for money, but because I don't want to see Miss Lin encounter something unexpected at such a young age."
Lin Tingzheng was even more moved after hearing this, and was so excited that he bowed his hands and saluted: "Mr. Xue is indeed a master of the world. Such magnanimity makes Lin ashamed. If Doctor Xue disdains things outside of his body, then the Lin family will remember today's kindness, and he will be able to use it in the future." At this time, Divine Doctor Xue just speaks."
Doctor Xue did not hesitate and immediately answered: "Right now, I have an urgent matter and need Mr. Lin's help."
"Mr. Xue said it's okay, Lin will do his best."
"I am old and have limited time. I don't care about money. I only care about the fact that the Xue family will never be able to enter the officialdom. I am sure that Mr. Lin, as the head of the Lin family, can recommend my eldest grandson of the Xue family to become an official." . If Mr. Lin fulfills my wish, I will have no regrets even if I die!"
