Chapter 69 The Miracle Doctor Arrives
She wanted to take back the shop in West Market that belonged to the original owner's mother.

Lin Zhiqing occupied the original owner's body and wanted to do something for the original owner within his ability.

Originally, she had no idea about this shop, but now that she had finally been able to get in touch with the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works, of course she had to ask.

"You want to take back the shop under your father's name?" Minister Bai looked around, lowered his voice, and frowned tightly.

Lin Zhiqing shook his head. "That's not the case. My mother once left me a shop in the West Market. It's always been a thought, and I want to take it back myself."

As soon as these words were spoken, Minister Bai's expression suddenly softened.

He could tell that Lin Zhiqing knew what he was doing and was not making any demands on him, but just asking about the situation.

Thinking of his daughter's eyes, Minister Bai sighed inwardly. It was nothing, a little reminder wouldn't do any harm. "Don't mention this to anyone else. Those shops won't be moved."

Lin Zhiqing understood that the higher-ups were still very wary of the original owner's father's affairs, and everything related to it was very sensitive.

After confirming that he would not be able to take back the shop left by his mother in a short time, Lin Zhiqing sincerely thanked Minister Bai.

Since Minister Bai was unable to show up, Mrs. Bai took the initiative to invite Lin Zhiqing to stay at the Bai family for dinner.

But Lin Zhiqing knew very well that Miss Bai had just recovered from a serious illness, and the Bai family should want to have a good reunion.

If I really stayed like this, it would be tactless.

After Lin Zhiqing said goodbye, Miss Hua also left happily, saying that she was going to tell the old lady the good news.

Mrs. Bai had mixed feelings.

She used to dislike Lin Zhiqing very much, and could even be said to hate him.

Because Lin Zhiqing did not meet her standards of a lady from a noble family and she didn't have any brains at all.

But she never expected that such a brainless person in her eyes would actually win the championship of the Spring Banquet and now inexplicably cure her daughter.

It is precisely because of this that Mrs. Bai likes Lin Zhiqing more and more.

"It seems I'm getting old." She shook her head and looked at Minister Bai: "Master, that child has had a hard time. Please help her."

"You're too soft-hearted! Didn't I say I wouldn't help her?" Minister Bai snorted coldly and put his hands behind his back.

He appeared calm on the surface, but inside he was in turmoil.

As one of the witnesses of that incident, although Minister Bai did not want to have anything to do with the Lin family in recent years, he had heard of the stupid things Lin Zhiqing had done.

If Lin Zhiqing had not been engaged to the son of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, she would have been eaten alive by the Lin family long ago.

Minister Bai originally thought that Lin Zhiqing would have to live a miserable life in this life, but he didn't expect that after so many years, she had become more intelligent.

For example, her demeanor and manners were very different from her previous petty appearance.

Especially her eyes, which seemed to have fallen into an abyss at first glance.

Minister Bai thought of this and sighed, "Madam, please give her some more silver."

"Just a plaque, some silver, and a shop. Isn't that a bit shabby? She is Ling'er's savior. I can even afford to give her gold." Mrs. Bai was soft-hearted after all.

"Womanly kindness!" Minister Bai said in a heavier voice, "I'd like to thank her in a big way, but don't you think about who those people in the Lin family are?"

"The gold was delivered tonight, but it might be looted tomorrow."

"Besides, you must keep your distance from her in the future. Don't forget that the higher-ups are worried about the Lin family and there are people secretly watching them. It's not a good thing to get involved with her."

Minister Bai said a lot of things in a disappointed tone, and when Mrs. Bai thought of what happened in the past, she also fell silent.

...The next day, the news that Miss Bai had regained her sight spread throughout Shengjing City.

Some curious people couldn't help but come to inquire about the matter. Minister Bai simply waved his hand and said that he would hold a day-long banquet in front of the mansion to celebrate his daughter's sight regaining.

At the same time, another piece of gossip was also spreading.

"Lin Zhiqing? Brother, you must have remembered it wrongly. The lady who opened the clinic was named Lu. How could a fool like Lin Zhiqing possibly treat illnesses?"

"Those young ladies from wealthy families have never done housework before, and are not as capable as my second daughter. My second daughter can even pick herbs, but Miss Lin might not even be able to recognize all the herbs."

"I heard that Lin Zhiqing also won the first prize at the last Spring Banquet. If she can win the first prize, why can't she cure diseases?"

"That's ridiculous! How can you just learn medicine? I've studied medicine for twenty years and still can't cure Miss Bai's eye disease. How can a young girl like her possibly cure it?"

"She must have spread this rumor deliberately because she wanted to be in the spotlight."

……

Everyone was discussing it heatedly, and they all thought that Lin Zhiqing could definitely not be the one who cured Miss Bai.

Just when everyone was wondering who the miracle doctor was, the Bai family suddenly did something unexpected. They sent a plaque engraved with "Miraculous Doctors Bringing Back Springs" to a shop in the East Market.

So, everyone speculated that the owner of this shop was the miracle doctor who cured Miss Bai.

Some people even squatted around the shop every day, wanting to see the true identity of this miracle doctor.

But as time passed, the miracle doctor never showed up, and the shop never opened. The identity of the miracle doctor became a topic of discussion among everyone in Shengjing City.

Some people even went to the Minister's residence to inquire about the news, but the Bai family kept their mouths shut and no clues could be found.

Just when the people of Shengjing City were expecting the miracle doctor to be at his peak, someone discovered that the shop to which the Bai family had previously presented the plaque had quietly opened its doors.

This news spread quickly throughout Shengjing City like a prairie fire.

In just half a day, the shop was surrounded by people who came to watch the fun.

Princess Pingning had also heard of the name of this miracle doctor. As soon as she heard the news that the shop was opening, she immediately rushed over with her maid.

"Do you think the miracle doctor will show up today?" Princess Pingning was observing her surroundings from a private room in the restaurant opposite the shop.

The maid poured her a cup of tea and said, "Miss, don't worry. Miss Bai has been blind for so many years and can still be cured. Your illness will definitely be fine."

"There are really too many people here today." A thin layer of sweat appeared on Princess Pingning's forehead, and she signaled the maid to fan her.

Then she called another maid, took out the incense she carried with her and lit it.

After doing all this, she sniffed it gently with her nose. When she didn't smell any strange smell, she drank the tea with satisfaction.

She had just put down her teacup when someone in the private room next door suddenly screamed loudly.

"The miracle doctor is here!"

Is the miracle doctor here? Princess Pingning craned her neck to look down.

I saw a small sedan chair with a green curtain slowly coming from the street corner, with people bustling around below, and a small path was separated in the middle.

Just as everyone was looking forward to it, the sedan chair stopped at the door of the shop and a slender hand lifted the curtain.

The moment she saw the person coming, Princess Pingning's eyes narrowed.

Is it her?
