The Duke of Zhen was putting on airs, and Lu Hanxiao did not refute his dignity.
He bowed his head slightly towards him, performing the courtesy of a junior.
No one except the emperor had ever received Lu Hanxiao's salute, and even the ministers in the court had to salute Lu Hanxiao in return.
The power in his hands is so great that no one is afraid of it.
The Duke of Zhen was stunned for a moment, and then he was extremely proud when he realized what he was doing.
He was even more assertive, but he didn't dare to go too far. He was still afraid of Lu Hanxiao.
"A good son-in-law doesn't have to be polite. You're here just in time. Please help me persuade this stubborn girl. Mrs. Lu is so good. She insists on becoming a doctor and uses money to hoard those rags. What should I do if she loses money? ?”
These words seemed to be concerned about Si Ning, but in fact they were worried about the money.
He was not afraid that Si Ning would lose money, but he wanted the money.
Si Ning concealed his coldness under his gaze. Lu Hanxiao smiled, secretly pinched Si Ning's fingers and replied nonchalantly.
"It's just a small amount of money. If Aning loses, it's a loss. It doesn't matter."
Duke Zhen Guo originally thought that Lu Hanxiao would scold Si Ning. After all, he would have hung him up and beaten him if he scattered so much money without even hearing a sound.
But Lu Hanxiao said it was okay?
Duke Zhen Guo's face was full of astonishment. He looked at Lu Hanxiao and frowned.
"But those silvers..."
"Father-in-law, A-Ning is now the wife of my Ning'an Marquis Mansion. If she loses a little money, I will blame her more. I'm afraid that you, the father, will not trust her to me when you see her."
These words made Duke Zhen a little embarrassed. He coughed and reluctantly nodded in agreement.
"But that money is too much!"
"Now I don't need to worry about my father-in-law. Does my father-in-law have anything else to do?"
This was an eviction order. The old man's face was dull and he looked at the two people opposite him angrily.
He was unwilling to give in, but the money was now in Si Ning's hands, and with Lu Hanxiao here, he couldn't go too far.
"It's okay. You go back first. I'll come see you another day."
He turned around and got into the carriage. As the carriage drove away, he did not forget to turn around and tell Si Ning to keep his duty.
No conscientious parent would tell their children like this.
Even if Lu Hanxiao is extremely powerful, he will not just let his daughter stay in peace and not let his uncle be lenient to his daughter.
The Duke of Zhen does not regard Si Ning as his daughter, and both Si Ning and Lu Hanxiao understand this.
Lu Hanxiao did not let go of Si Ning's hand, but pulled her straight inside.
When he passed the second room, he heard Li Xutang's frantic voice inside, and Si Ning looked puzzled.
Lu Hanxiao explained to her, "In the corruption case a few days ago, Li An admitted all the crimes, but because of his merit in exposing it, the emperor did not implicate his family, but just beheaded him in public three days later."
Si Ning knew about the corruption case. She and Lu Hanxiao went to the countryside to learn driving. On the way, they encountered some gangsters who bullied a pair of grandparents. Lu Hanxiao took action.
Later, Lu Hanxiao started to investigate this matter, but Si Ning didn't pay much attention to the subsequent events. He only knew that it was involved in a corruption case.
Now that I heard his words, I realized that everything was settled.
"This is a condition you and Li An have reached."
Lu Hanxiao talked easily with Si Ning. Sometimes he would just mention something and she would think of the next possibility.
He nodded, "He begged me to keep his son, and he came forward to identify Shen Ranhao."
Shen Ranhao belongs to the third prince. Lu Hanxiao and the third prince are incompatible with each other. He wants to get rid of Shen Ranhao. Si Ning is not surprised at all.
"I didn't expect Li An to be a good father."
In order to save his son, he even risked his life.
Lu Hanxiao thought she had thought of what happened just now, so he patiently comforted her.
"I will also protect you and your children in the future, don't be afraid."
Si Ning was stunned and looked up at the person opposite him, feeling the warmth coming from his palms.
In half a month, Si Ning had stockpiled all the earth bones and skins in a hundred miles radius, and Yisheng also stocked up on a lot of Prunella vulgaris.
One time, Si Ning saw Li Dawei at the door of the medical clinic. Li Dawei did not dare to ridicule her blatantly, but he waited for Si Ning's unlucky meaning in his words.
After a few days, the originally damp and cold weather suddenly became warmer.
The sky in the capital is so unpredictable, but who knew that the sun would be out for several days in a row.
The jackets that were originally worn could no longer be worn this time, so they all changed into autumn clothes.
Si Ning was sitting in the yard and heard the mother-in-law who was in charge of the yard muttering.
"This day is really unusual. It has never been so hot and cold in the past."
Some little girls in the yard who were in poor health were already sick, so Si Ning asked Qiu Ju to prepare medicine for them.
The little maids were all so flattered that they did not dare to delay their illness to thank Si Ning, so they could only drag Qiu Ju to convey the gratitude to them.
The weather has changed suddenly. Originally, the reason for stocking up on Prunella vulgaris was because it was used as medicine because of the wet and cold weather. However, the current weather not only does not require the use of wet and cold prescriptions, but also because of the news that large areas of the capital are stocking up on Prunella vulgaris, many people from other places have spread. Merchants sniffed out business opportunities and dragged large quantities of Prunella vulgaris to the capital for sale.
In an instant, Prunella vulgaris was rampant, and major medicinal shops in the capital had dozens of tons of Prunella vulgaris. Because of the low demand, the price of Prunella vulgaris dropped repeatedly.
Si Ning went to the medical clinic, and Sun Yifan had a look of relief on his face.
"Fortunately, I listened to you and didn't hoard Prunella vulgaris, otherwise there would be nowhere to cry."
"Ms. Ning, how did you guess that hoarding Prunella vulgaris will make you lose money?"
Si Ning never guessed that Prunella vulgaris would lose money, but the news from the military newspaper made her think that the epidemic might break out on a large scale.
In the prescription for treating epidemic diseases, Diguchi is very important, but Prunella Vulgaris is useless.
Moreover, in her previous life, she had seen a large amount of a certain type of medicine being robbed, only to lose it all in her hands.
When there is an excess of something, many negative chain reactions are bound to occur.
This is the economics taught by later generations. Si Ning doesn't understand it very well, but he can understand the simpler principles.
Even if he doesn't hoard ground bones and skin, Si Ning will not follow the trend and hoard Prunella vulgaris.
"It's a fluke. Have you received any patients with high fever recently?"
Si Ning changed the topic, and the two of them recalled it carefully and shook their heads.
It seems that the epidemic has not spread yet, which is good news.
Si Ning felt that it was better to be prepared than to wait.
She wrote a prescription for preventing the epidemic and gave it to Sun Yifan.
"Make some sachets according to this recipe, and give one to each patient who comes into the store."
Sun Yifan looked at the prescription and asked, "What kind of prescription is this?"
Ren Zhongyuan looked closer and didn't understand the recipe.
"It's just a recipe for strengthening your body. It's nothing special. Just do what I tell you."
The two of them no longer had any objections and went down to prepare.
In the evening, carriages from other places entered Beijing carrying large quantities of Prunella vulgaris.
The price of Prunella vulgaris hit a new low. Li Dawei, who had stocked up a large amount of Prunella vulgaris, couldn't sit still and went to his master to discuss countermeasures.
