"Hey, what you said is wrong, girl. Does that mean our sister shouldn't seek medical treatment from you?"
A middle-aged woman couldn't help it anymore and said: "Anyway, let me tell you, our sister is dead. You can do whatever you want. If you don't pay money, then we will report it to the official!"
He Ping'an frowned and asked about the woman's appearance and the child's appearance. It was the child yesterday.
But what made him a little strange was that yesterday the woman was critically ill, but only a seven or eight-year-old child came to support her mother.
As soon as the woman died today, so many of you came to the door, but the child disappeared.
This is not a professional "medical trouble"...
"First of all, where are you from?"
He Pingan asked.
"We are from the Shi family in Dayefang."
The two women had just suffered a loss at the hands of He Pingan and did not dare to make a mistake in front of him. They replied: "That sister is the wife of the boss of the Shi family..."
He Pingan listened for a while and realized that there were three brothers in the Shi family, the eldest Shi Gang, the second eldest Shi Meng, and the third eldest Shi Yong.
The person who came to Xiancao Hall yesterday was Shi Wu, the wife of the boss Shi Gang.
Of these two women, one is Shi Meng's wife, and the other is Shi Yong's wife.
The boss Shi Gang died young, leaving his wife Shi Wu and his son Shi Zhen to depend on each other.
Unexpectedly, this year, Shi Wu also suffered from a serious illness. After many treatments, he still did not get better.
Yesterday, after the child Shi Zhen brought Shi Wu to Xiancao Hall for treatment, Shi Wu passed away not long after returning to the house and drinking the medicine.
"Dayefang?"
He Ping'an couldn't chew it in his heart, and then smiled lightly and said: "Dayefang is not far from here."
"If you want to be cured, why come to our Xiancao Hall?"
Dayefang is to the east of Xuanyang City, and Xiancao Hall is to the west of Xuanyang City. They are about ten miles apart.
Shi Yong's wife said: "On New Year's Day, other drug stores are closed. If I don't come to your place, where will I go?"
"Stop talking nonsense and pay the money quickly!"
He Ping'an suddenly became speechless. There was no sense in what he said.
A child of seven or eight years old does not have the ability to carry his mother more than ten miles to Xiancao Hall.
Besides, Xiancao Tang is not open, so how do you know that Xiancao Tang will make an exception for you on the first day of the Lunar New Year?
"It's not impossible to pay money."
He Ping'an saw that the people around him were noisy here, and some people started to stop and watch. They paused, frowned and said, "But before paying the money, we have to go and see the cause of Shi Wu's death."
"In addition, there is that child, we also want to see him."
Shi Yong's wife refused: "No, you bring the money first!"
Shi Meng's wife also added fuel to the flames and said: "Yes, take the money and then go see her. Anyway, my sister died after being treated here!"
"Everyone, come and see, this Xiancao Hall can cure people to death..."
The two chattered a lot, and immediately attracted a large group of people watching the fun.
It was originally the second day of the Lunar New Year, and the people around him were fine. Seeing that something seemed to have happened here, they all gathered around.
"Look, look..."
"I'm just saying that in this Xiancao Hall, sooner or later something will go wrong when it comes to treating illnesses. You see..."
"Where can I get medical treatment so cheaply..."
Several people watching the excitement were pointing and pointing, which made Hong Xifei's pretty face suddenly darken.
In the past few months, Xiancao Tang has treated no less than a thousand patients, and the price is basically only a little higher than the cost. Hong Xifei’s medical fees were not collected at all, but when it came to these people’s mouth, they became Xiancao Tang’s. no.
"Xi Fei, are you angry?"
He Ping'an saw Hong Xifei's gloomy face and smiled lightly.
"Sir, do you think these people are speaking human words?"
Hong Xifei stamped her feet and pouted her mouth, her face full of grievance and anger.
"Before we reopened the pharmacy, I told you that doctors can only treat physical ailments, but someone has to treat the ailments in a person's heart."
He Ping'an said slowly: "In my hometown, there was a great scholar who gave up medicine to study literature and picked up a pen to awaken the world."
"But I believe that diseases of the flesh should be cured, and diseases of the human heart should also be cured."
"So, since you have chosen to be a doctor, you must have a mentality of not taking pleasure in things or feeling sad about yourself, and just do what you should do."
"Besides, it's too early to draw a conclusion at this time. Let the bullets fly for a while."
Hong Xifei tilted her head and thought for a while, then asked curiously: "Sir, what does the bullet mean?"
"Bullets..." He Ping'an looked at a large group of people in the distance, pointed at the new crowd and smiled: "Bullets, those people over there!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sturdy middle-aged man quickly walked out of the crowd, pointed at a rickety old man who was making irresponsible remarks and cursed: "Sun Laowu, you have to be conscientious when you speak!"
"Who cured your mother's illness?"
"Forgot so quickly?"
The rickety old man named Sun Laowu argued: "What's wrong with my mother's illness being cured by Xiancao Tang?"
"I also paid money..."
"I bother!"
Before he finished speaking, the strong man interrupted him: "You paid three taels of silver. You went to Wanchuntang to inquire about it. Regarding your mother's disease, you can't even pay the doctor's consultation fee." rise."
"Not to mention the cost of medicinal materials."
"In the end, I was cured with just three taels of silver in the Immortal Cao Hall. You must have a dark heart!"
"Ungrateful thing!"
On the other side, there were nearly a hundred patients or family members of patients who had been treated and recovered by Hong Xifei, all surrounding Sun Laowu and others, accusing and abusing them.
Although Sun Laowu and others have developed their shame to the point of being invulnerable, they still cannot withstand the indiscriminate bombardment of nearly a hundred people.
Especially among them were dozens of people with extraordinary fighting prowess and market aunt-level characters who vomited crabs at the mouth. Several of them were scolded so badly that they could only cover their faces and run away in shame.
"I said you guys dare to come to Xiancao Hall to find trouble. Who among the people around the West Market doesn't know that Dr. Hong has excellent medical skills and has saved thousands of people? How can you make false accusations?"
Sun Laowu and others escaped, and nearly a hundred people, led by several aunts, surrounded the Shi family and others.
Seeing so many people surrounding them, the Shi family and others suddenly looked frightened.
"Our people died after being treated here. This is a fact!"
Shi Yong's wife was fierce and brave, and said bravely: "If we have any shortcomings here, it will be hard to tell the government."
"I wonder if you have ever heard of a saying that the law does not punish the public?"
He Ping'an suddenly said, looking at the Shi family and others with a pair of bright eyes with a smile, and then waved his hands, and everyone immediately gathered around, surrounding the six members of the Shi family tightly.
"ah!"
When Shi Yong's wife saw so many people surrounding her, she collapsed and shouted, "Don't come over!"
"You...I...we don't want any more money!"
Shi Meng looked at the people who were getting closer and closer, and said quickly, preparing to lead them away.
They are here to extort money. Most drug stores in Xuanyang City usually swallow their anger and pay for it when encountering this kind of thing.
Who would have thought that this Xiancao Hall would not do this.
"No, I have to give you the money, and we also want to see this man!"
He Ping'an smiled lightly and said, "At this point, it's no longer just for you to watch it if you don't want to."
After his simple speculation just now, he discovered that Shi Zhen's mother died somewhat strangely.
If he just left it like this, he was worried that it would lead to endless troubles.
It would be better to find out for yourself, which would make you feel more at ease.
Thinking of this, he clasped his fists and said to the people around him: "Dear neighbors, thank you for your trust in Xiancao Tang, but since the deceased did die after we treated him, we should go and find out."
"If you avoid talking about it, it will only make it worse. On the contrary, let's go find out and clear our name at Xiancao Hall."
The people around him were silent for a moment after hearing He Pingan's words, and then applauded. The strong man said, "Then we will go with you, lest they falsely accuse you and no one will help."
He Ping'an smiled and said: "Thank you all, but what I want to say is that no one in this world can falsely accuse me, not even Jia... no one can do it."
He almost blurted out that even if Emperor Jiaming came, he wouldn't be able to do it.
Forget it, let’s save some face for Emperor Jiaming...
At this time, Hong Xifei's eyes were red with emotion, and there were tears in her eyes. She thought that everyone was just like Sun Laowu, who was adding insult to injury.
Only then did she realize that there were so many people supporting her, which made her determination to help the world become firm again.
The bullet the young master mentioned really works...
After saying this, He Pingan said no more, signaled the crowd around to disperse slowly, and then walked towards Dayefang with Hong Xifei.
Seeing this, everyone in the Shi family quickly followed.
