"Master, is this kid dead?"
Seeing that Chunxu, who was sallow and skinny, had not yet woken up, Jiang Zhai's housekeeper began to make guesses.
After listening to the butler's words, Landlord Jiang turned his head and looked at Chunxu, who was sleeping upside down on the ground beside the brazier.
Chunxu fell to the ground, with his feet in the air, and there seemed to be no sign of life.
"Master, is he... dead?" the housekeeper guessed.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Landlord Jiang said angrily, and then spoke in a kind language: "Even if he dies, it is not because of me, Mr. Jiang. It is obviously because of his illness."
"Go and see if he's still angry."
"Eh."
The housekeeper walked to Chunxu's side and kicked him with his foot, but Chunxu didn't seem to feel it at all.
After seeing this, the housekeeper squatted down, his slightly plump figure squatting beside Chunxu, his right hand stretched out, and two rough fingers were placed on Chunxu's neck.
"Master! He's dead!" The housekeeper looked at Master Jiang in a panic.
After hearing what the housekeeper said, Landlord Jiang was a little disbelieving. He got up from the couch and walked over nervously.
Although someone died, it didn't mean anything. But he is Chunxu, the great hero who wiped out bandits among the people.
If he died, those people would definitely come to Jiang Mansion to cause trouble.
Although he is the landlord of Xitong County, if the people resist, Jiang Zhai will not be able to survive in Xitong County.
If we meet those stubborn people with a sense of justice again, I am afraid that the crops would rather starve to death than grow them. By then, the income of Jiang House will be much worse than before, and the house may have dozens of servants. Sorry.
"Really dead?" Mr. Jiang asked the butler beside him in disbelief.
The butler nodded nervously and said nothing.
After seeing this, Landlord Jiang bent down and looked at Chunxu's neck with his fingers.
"Oops." After saying that, Landlord Jiang hurriedly looked at the housekeeper: "Go, ask the doctor to come over."
The housekeeper thought that there was no need to shout anymore after saying that this man was dead, but as soon as he said "Master", the master shouted anxiously:
"What are you doing standing still! Go quickly!"
"Yes, yes." After saying that, the housekeeper ran out of Jiang's house and went to look for the doctor.
After watching the housekeeper leave, Landlord Jiang wandered around Chunxu, seemingly checking to see if he was really dead.
After a while, the housekeeper brought a doctor.
This doctor has white hair and beard, and his face is full of wrinkles. He is already old.
Then such a doctor became a famous miracle doctor in this small town of Tong County, and he was a household name, known to all women and children.
"I have met Landlord Jiang." The doctor was very polite.
When Landlord Jiang saw this, he waved his hands impatiently and said, "No, no, please look at people quickly."
The doctor walked over, sat aside and started testing with his hands.
After some testing, the doctor's expression changed, and he hurriedly took out a long piece of cloth from the wooden medicine box and spread it flat on the ground.
You see, this piece of cloth is neatly arranged with needles of different sizes and lengths.
The doctor took one of the needles and started acupuncture on Chunxu's body.
After a long time, the smile appeared on the doctor's face again.
"Jiang Landlord, his blood vessels are not smooth, and there are no signs of blockage in many places, so the blood cannot flow everywhere. This makes the brain supply insufficient blood and he is unconscious. This phenomenon is extremely dangerous. If it is not used in time, Acupuncture unblocks the active joints, but if it continues for a long time, it may be life-threatening."
Listening to what the doctor said, Landlord Jiang didn't care about this: "Then can he still live?"
"Don't worry, Xiaomin has used acupuncture to circulate his blood, and he will wake up in an hour." The doctor said with a slight smile.
"Then is there anything he needs to pay attention to in the future?" Landlord Jiang asked again.
"I'll prescribe some medicine later and wait for him to nurse him back to health for a while after he wakes up." As he spoke, the doctor asked the doubts in his heart: "I don't know, what kind of punishment has he received? The temperature outside the body is high, but the inside is very cold. This requires bed rest for half a month."
"Mr. Xu, as a doctor, you only need to cure the sick. Why do you talk so much? I would have made him stand at the door for how long. When he found out, he was sent back to the house to keep warm."
"Yes, yes. I don't know, why did Landlord Jiang punish him?"
This doctor does talk a lot, because he is the miracle doctor in this city, otherwise he would probably be speechless or lame now.
As for why, you may also know.
"Butler." Mr. Jiang called.
"Hey, sir."
"Send Doctor Xu back to his hospital to get the medicine."
"yes."
Seeing that Landlord Jiang was trying to drive him away, Dr. Xu was not afraid at all, but continued to ask:
"Daddy Jiang, what punishment did you give him?"
Before Landlord Jiang could answer, the housekeeper grabbed Xu Langzhong and walked out the door.
Seeing Mr. Xu asking hard questions, Landlord Jiang wanted to answer, but he didn't want to answer in his heart.
"Mr. Xu, let's go."
Seeing Mr. Xu being taken away by the housekeeper, Landlord Jiang felt relieved.
It's a pity that I lost my money and helped advance the medical money in advance.
Zheng Zhui had been waiting outside the house for a long time. Seeing the familiar doctor approaching, Zheng Zhui hurriedly asked again:
"Mr. Xu, who are you treating?"
Just when Mr. Xu was about to answer, the housekeeper of Jiang House on the side answered loudly, and his voice drowned out Mr. Xu's voice.
"My husband felt tightness in his chest when he just listened to the play, so he invited the doctor to take a look!"
After saying that, the housekeeper hurriedly pulled Xu Langzhong away.
Seeing such an abnormal appearance, Zheng Zhui became worried.
Turning towards Jiang's house, he was about to rush in.
"What are you doing? You can't break in. Do you want to feed the dog?" The two guards threatened.
Listening to the tone of their conversation, Zheng Zhui felt very unhappy.
"Why can't I go in?" Zheng Zhui really didn't understand.
His big head seems to contain a lot of knowledge, but in fact it is just a little more fleshy.
"Stinks." The guard on the right covered his nose with one hand and tried to remove the air with the other hand.
Zheng Zhui was very confused as to where the smell was and why he couldn't smell it.
"What stinks?"
"Everywhere stinks." Guard Zuo said while covering his nose.
Looking at the actions of the two guards, Zheng Zhui said helplessly: "No... I didn't see you covering your nose like this just now."
The two guards said nothing.
"No...do you treat people like this?" Zheng Zhui moved forward slightly, wanting to enter the house to see the situation.
As soon as he moved, the two guards put the butcher's knife on Zheng Chui's neck.
"You two, you don't have to be like this. My legs and feet are just sore after standing for a long time. I just need to move. Put down the knife and say what you have to say carefully," Zheng Zhui said in a panic.
Zheng Chui looked panicked, and the two guards had just put down their butcher knives.
"You can't go in this house, be honest. If you risk your life, I'll kill you with a pig's knife."
As soon as the left guard said this, Zheng Zhui had no choice but to hold his hands together and blow the heater inside from time to time.
Unconsciously, another hour passed, the temperature continued to drop, and the surrounding area became much colder.
At this moment, Landlord Jiang was still in his bedroom, holding his head with one hand and watching the shadow play on the couch.
This shadow puppet show has been performed for almost ten times since Shouting.
If Jiang Zhai hadn't paid him a lot of money, the man performing the shadow puppet show wouldn't have been performing one performance after another without eating or resting.
Chunxu woke up with his head feeling dizzy, his face seemed to be very hot, but the ground was cold.
He sat on the ground, looking at the burning fire beside him, and then at Landlord Jiang on the couch who was watching the show seriously.
"Are you awake?" Landlord Jiang asked coldly.
Chunxu said nothing, as if he had not yet remembered how he passed out.
"Landlord Jiang, are you still not satisfied with my kowtow? I'll kowtow to you again."
After saying that, Chunxu knelt down and began to kowtow.
Thinking of the people who worked hard for his family, and thinking that Chunxu was their hero, Landlord Jiang finally spoke:
"That's all, no need to knock anymore."
Listening to Landlord Jiang's words, Chunxu suddenly became anxious and quickly asked himself the reason.
"Daddy Jiang, don't do this. I've come to kowtow two days ago, and today I'm here again as promised. If I don't do something right, you can just beat me and scold me." Chunxu said anxiously.
"Hit you and scold you?"
Chunxu nodded.
Landlord Jiang shook his head and sighed: "That's all, just as a landlord, I am showing kindness, and I agreed to lend you the 20,000 taels of silver."
"Really?" Chunxu looked confused.
Landlord Jiang nodded: "Really. You fell ill just now, and I invited a doctor for you, saying that you have poor blood, and..." As he said this, Landlord Jiang didn't know what to say, and he quickly asked the doctor on the side. Butler: "What did the doctor say just now? Repeat it to him."
"Eh." After answering, the housekeeper said: "The doctor said that your blood vessels are blocked, and the blood can't...can't transport the brain, that's it. The blood can't transport the brain, which is why you are comatose. The doctor said that this phenomenon is very dangerous, Thanks to me summoning the doctor in time, I saved your life. The doctor also said that your illness will take some time to recover, so keep warm, and said that you are thin and eat more food."
"Okay, okay, that's enough. You're not his mother." Landlord Jiang on the side didn't want to hear anymore.
After listening to the butler's words, Chunxu hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you, Landlord Jiang! Thank you, Landlord Jiang!"
"I agreed to lend you these twenty thousand taels of silver. You don't have to pay them back for him."
"Thank you, Landlord Jiang."
"Hey, wait, you fainted just now. Fortunately, I found out in time and saved your life. I paid for the medical money in advance for you. Then, you begged me twice and disturbed my time. , add up to your twenty taels."
"Twenty taels?" Chunxu looked surprised.
"What? Your life is not worth these twenty taels of silver?" Landlord Jiang said.
"Yes, yes. Twenty taels, just twenty taels."
"Okay." After saying that, Landlord Jiang looked at the housekeeper: "Go and give him the medicine prescribed by the doctor."
"yes."
"Thank you, Landlord Jiang." Chunxu said with a slight smile.
"From now on...if there is nothing important, you'd better not come to this house. It's best to hide away once in a while."
"Yes Yes."
After the housekeeper got the medicine and handed it to Chunxu, Chunxu hurriedly thanked the landlord:
"Thank you, Landlord Jiang. I'll take my leave first, then."
"Go ahead."
"Eh."
