All the wounded soldiers were transferred back to Yuling, and Xia Yunxian and Liang Qianqian were also arranged into a house.
"It's been cold recently, and the conditions of many of the wounded soldiers have worsened again. It's estimated that the adults will be busy until late at night. I've also asked Doctor Xia to rest in this house first. My daughter will be here soon to relieve Doctor Xia's boredom."
Master Lin had been waiting at the city gate early. Compared with the contempt that the generals of Yuling had for Xia Yunxian, he seemed particularly enthusiastic and respectful.
After settling in, Liang Qianqian came over from the next door room.
"It's really too much. Sister Yunxian came all the way here, but was excluded!" After saying that, she took out the men's clothes she had prepared and handed them to Xia Yunxian. "If sister is worried, just change into this. It’s also easier to do things.”
But Xia Yunxian didn't take over the clothes for a long time, and her clear eyes fell on Liang Qianqian's face, keenly capturing the timidity in her heart.
"Even if I change into men's clothing, I am still a girl. If I dislike this identity, who can I expect to treat us fairly?"
Liang Qianqian was startled. She looked down at her ill-fitting clothes and felt a sense of shame.
When Xia Yunxian was insulted, she was right next to her. In addition to being angry, she actually felt afraid. She was afraid that if she was recognized as a woman disguised as a man, she would be scolded to shame by those people and damage her grandfather's reputation. .
She knew that she had not made any mistakes and just wanted to contribute her own strength, but in the face of such discrimination, she did not have the courage to fight.
She cares too much about other people's opinions!
"Qianqian, I hope you want to be a female doctor, not for the illusory sense of honor. This path will only bring you endless doubts, not a halo."
The little girl is thin-skinned. If she wants to stick to her dream, she must recognize the reality as soon as possible and then seriously think about her next step.
Liang Qianqian was silent for a long time, her eyes gradually turned red, and then she took a deep breath, "Sister Yunxian, I understand! I will not change my mind because of these short-sighted fools. If they laugh at me, I will My status as a young lady from the Duke’s Palace overwhelms them!”
They were the first to be unreasonable, so why should she be polite?
What's more, these people are a stumbling block for her to realize her ideal. If anyone dares to curse again, she will have the Liang family's children break their teeth!
Anyway, even if she tolerates it, these people will not talk about kindness and will only bully them even more. It is better to just be a wicked woman and no one can ruin her medical career!
Xia Yunxian was slightly startled by Liang Qianqian's sudden words, and soon laughed out loud.
She was indeed right. This girl was resilient and knew her own strengths.
If even a noble lady like Liang Qianqian is suppressed because of her gender and unable to practice medicine, let alone ordinary people?
If convincing people with virtue doesn't work, then use violence to control violence.
At this moment, there was a movement outside the hospital.
"Is Dr. Xia here? We are here to see a doctor."
Liang Qianqian's eyes lit up. Sure enough, someone had a keen eye for the pearl!
She excitedly pulled Xia Yunxian to the outside of the hospital, and saw several pretty women coming together. The one in the lead was dressed in jewels, and there was a bit of hostility in his eyes, but it passed quickly, leaving Liang Qianqian felt that it was her misunderstanding.
Xia Yunxian also felt the other party's appraising gaze.
Lin Yudie looked at the beautiful and soft face in front of her, feeling secretly resentful in her heart.
It's her!
Unexpectedly, the first female doctor in Dongling was the spy’s eldest sister!
Money can make the world go round. She had already bribed the guards around Huo Changsheng and spent a lot of money to have the guards report everything about Huo Changsheng to her in a timely manner.
The guard said that Brother Changsheng seemed to be in a good mood in recent days, and occasionally asked people around him when the imperial doctor from Beijing would arrive at Yuling. Even though he tried his best to hide it, people still caught the clues.
He was looking forward to meeting someone in the Royal Hospital. Lin Yudie thought about it and after some further inquiries, she found out the identities of Xia Yunxian and Xia Yunhan.
At this time, Lin Yudie stepped forward and bowed slightly to Xia Yunxian, "Sister, you must be tired from the long journey, right? I should have let my sister rest for a few more days, but these sisters were frightened and sick by the barbarians who broke into the city. I'm afraid... I can’t delay it, sister won’t be offended, right?”
The attendant next to him immediately explained, "Yi Xia, this is Master Lin's daughter."
Xia Yunxian nodded as she thought of her daughter Lin Yudie whom Master Lin mentioned just now.
"Those gangsters are so scary!" The speaker was Miss Su. She was helped to the stone table in the pavilion. Xia Yunxian put his hand on her pulse, while the ladies next to him talked to each other. One sentence tells the atrocities of the barbarians.
"Ms. Su's pulse is thin and heavy, which is a symptom of spleen deficiency and internal heat. You have been feeling unwell for a long time, and it did not just happen recently. Dry mouth, pale tongue, abdominal distension and loss of appetite. If your hands and feet are cold, cover up. If it is not hot, it means spleen yang deficiency."
Xia Yunxian raised his eyes to look at her, but unexpectedly, Miss Su frowned, "What is Dr. Xia talking nonsense about? It's not accurate at all!"
What?
Liang Qianqian on the side was immediately stunned, the surroundings became silent, and Xia Yunxian was also a little surprised.
However, Miss Su didn't intend to give her a chance to explain. She flicked her sleeves and stood up with a sullen face.
"Haha, every horse stumbles and every man stumbles. Why don't you try someone else?" Lin Yudie hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over.
A Miss Zhang then sat down. This time Xia Yunxian took a little longer to check her pulse than before, and her expression also changed slightly. "Has Miss Zhang vomited blood recently?"
"You've gone too far! You actually cursed Sister Zhang like this!"
"This isn't treating people, it's simply deceiving the public with lies!"
Several ladies stared at Xia Yunxian one after another, pretending to leave angrily. Only Miss Zhang's pupils shrank, the hand holding the handkerchief in her sleeve trembled slightly, she turned back three times, but she whispered in agreement, " Yes, yes, not at all."
"Sister Su, don't be angry, and Sister Zhang, what should we do? Doctor Xia must have been tired from the journey and misdiagnosed her. Give her another chance..."
Lin Yudie pretended to explain and retreated with several ladies along the way. She seemed to be defending, but in fact she confirmed that Xia Yunxian was not good at medical skills. This noisy voice made the servants in the house look at each other.
Liang Qianqian stared anxiously, "Sister Yunxian, I think they are clearly here to cause trouble, we can't let them leave like this!"
If word spread, how could the people of Yuling believe in Xia Yunxian's medical skills?
To put it more seriously, if these words spread to the palace, wouldn't Unzen's sister's reputation be ruined!
Xia Yunxian reached out to stop Liang Qianqian and looked at the direction they were leaving. This trip was more troublesome than she imagined. She also wanted to know when she offended Miss Lin.
