Chapter 1838
Belly as big as a drum?
After listening to Dr. Tao's description of Mrs. Ge's condition, Ling Yu quickly came up with several treatments for this disease in her mind.
I just haven’t seen the patient, so I can’t confirm which method to use.
"Doctor Tao, when will you go to Magistrate Ge's house tomorrow?"
Ling Yu asked.
"Before Mao hour!"
Doctor Tao looked at Ling Yu helplessly: "My dear lady, do you have any way to cure this strange disease?"
Ling Yu smiled: "There is a way, but we can't judge whether it is practical before seeing the patient! Doctor Tao, I will come to see you at noon tomorrow and accompany you to Ge's house!"
Doctor Tao had a glimmer of hope as soon as he heard this. Although he had doubts about whether Ling Yu could cure Mrs. Ge's illness at such a young age, there was nothing he could do.
Either way, it's death, so there's no harm in trying.
"Little lady, don't worry, if you can't be cured, I will save you even if I risk my life!"
Doctor Tao said firmly: "You tell me what medicinal materials I need to prepare, and I will be ready and waiting for you!"
Ling Yu thought for a while, asked for paper and pen, and wrote down some commonly used medicinal materials, including silver needles, daggers, spirits, cotton balls, etc.
Doctor Tao was confused. Why did he need a dagger and strong liquor to treat the disease?
"Doctor Tao, just prepare these! I will come over as early as possible tomorrow. I will tell you what I need then!"
Ling Yu took the medicinal materials that Xiaoxing had gathered for herself, and asked Doctor Tao for an old men's clothing, a medicine jar and some rice, and hurried back to the ruined temple.
Bao Xuan was already waiting impatiently. She was worried that Ling Yu would abandon her and run away. Seeing Ling Yu come back, Bao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and secretly felt that she was too petty.
She should learn to trust Ling Yu's character.
"Little sister, we may not have to live in a ruined temple tomorrow!"
Ling Yu said excitedly while applying medicine and bandage to the man's wound: "I have found a way to make money. It depends on tomorrow whether it will work or not!"
As long as Magistrate Ge's mother is cured, there will definitely be a reward. Then maybe they will be able to earn enough travel expenses to go to the divine capital in advance, and they can go on the road.
"What's going on? Aren't you going to buy medicine?"
Bao Xuan asked doubtfully.
Ling Yu told the story of her encounter with Doctor Tao, and finally said: "I'll go over tomorrow and have a look. If I cure Mrs. Ge's illness, Prefect Ge will definitely reward me with a silver reward!"
Bao Xuan also became happy after hearing this, but then Bao Xuan thought of something and became worried.
"Sister Jiang, have you forgotten that Zhao Ruirui said that Xiao Lintian gave a car of female slaves to the eldest daughter of the Ge family?"
"Is this Magistrate Ge and the eldest daughter of the Ge family a family member? If you go to see the old lady, you won't fall into a trap, right?"
Ling Yu was stunned for a moment, she really hadn't thought of this possibility.
But Ling Yu thought for a while and then smiled and said: "It can't be such a coincidence! The eldest lady of the Ge family is in a small town. I don't know how far away from the small town it is. How can they be a family!"
"What's more, even my sister doesn't recognize my face now. If I change my voice, even if they are a family, they won't recognize me!"
Bao Xuan was persuaded by Ling Yu and nodded: "Then you must be careful tomorrow and run away as soon as the situation goes bad!"
"Well! This man will be left to you tomorrow! His injury should be swollen by applying medicine tonight. You can change the medicine for him tomorrow!"
After Ling Yu changed the man into the men's clothes that Dr. Tao asked for, Ling Yu asked Bao Xuan to go to bed first while she prepared the medicine for the man.
After the medicine was prepared, Ling Yu gave it to the man and sat aside to observe the man.
When Ling Yu took off his clothes earlier, she found that although the man's clothes were in tatters, the material was not something ordinary people could afford.
The clothes made of the best fabrics she saw in the clothing store today were not as good as this man's rags. The man's clothes should cost at least five hundred taels of silver.
Who is this man?
