Song Sanniang's Journey to Wealth

At this time, the person who went to find the doctor came, followed by a person who did not look like a doctor but a medicine boy.

Song Sanniang asked the helper who brought the medicine boy suspiciously, "Excuse me, where did you invite this doctor from?"

The man wiped the sweat from his forehead, breathing heavily.

"I invited this doctor from Renxin Hall. He said the old doctors were busy and he was the only one available."

Before Song Sanniang could say anything, the medicine boy jumped up and down.

"What's wrong with you? Do you look down on me or what? Our master was taught by the old owner of Tong Ren Tang. Everyone in Dajiang Town knows Tong Ren Tang.

I am our master's regular apprentice, and I am more than capable of showing you how to treat minor ailments such as diarrhea.

Do you still want my master to help you? It depends on whether you can afford it."

Hearing this, everyone started talking again. Song Sanniang asked him to show it to Lan San first, and then gave the money to the man who helped run errands.

She whispered a few words to the man, who hesitated a little. Song Sanniang gave him another ten cents, and he took the money and left immediately.

The medicine boy woke up Lan San, felt his pulse, opened his eyelids, and asked him to stick out his tongue.

Then he confidently concluded, "It's not a serious illness. I just ate something bad and my stomach got upset."

Then he asked Ransan confidently, "Did you poop all night?"

Lan San acted like he was a real genius, (applause is expected here, he is a great actor) "Doctor, you are absolutely right, I drank her sweet soup and had diarrhea all night."

The medicine boy nodded. "I'll prescribe you a prescription for diarrhea. You can go to Renxintang to get the medicine and boil it for consumption. Be careful about your diet recently and eat light food."

Then he looked at Song Sanniang and then at Lan San. "The consultation fee is 15 wen, and the medicine costs 30 wen per set. I need to get six sets in total. Who will pay for it?"

Lan San pointed at Song Sanniang and said, "Of course she should pay for it. Not only should she pay for the medical expenses, but she should also compensate me."

Song Sanniang was too lazy to pay attention to him and asked the medicine boy, "Doctor, you said he had an upset stomach. How did you diagnose that? And you said you would prescribe a prescription. What was the prescription? Do you have a basis for it? What are the herbs in the prescription?"

The medicine boy was dumbfounded by the question, his head was like paste, he reluctantly replied, "Of course I made the diagnosis based on observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation. What prescription did you ask about? I'll tell you, do you understand?"

"Don't worry about whether I understand or not. Just tell me. There will naturally be people who understand. It's not that I don't trust you, doctor, but I don't trust this person.

Who knows if he deliberately got sick to blackmail me? He just came to cause trouble yesterday. He never bought food from me before, but now he said he had a stomachache.

How come I sold so much before, but none of the customers complained of having stomach upsets?"

The medicine boy had nothing to say. At this time, the person who had left came back, bringing a real doctor with him.

This doctor was none other than Shen Zhengliang, the doctor who bought the single-legged gold from Song Laoer.

When Song Sanniang saw Shen Zhengliang, she was relieved. When Song Laoer was selling the herbal medicine, he complained about the bad performance of Tongrentang stores, and then he said that this doctor was good.

When she saw the medicine boy coming, she felt something was wrong and immediately thought of the doctor.

Song Sanniang said respectfully to Shen Zhengliang, "Please come here, Doctor Shen. This young man said that he had a stomachache after drinking my sweet soup and has diarrhea all night. Please take a look at him."

Shen Zhengliang nodded, put the medicine box on the ground, and was about to take Lan San's pulse, but Lan San dodged Shen Zhengliang's hand and said angrily,

"I don't want you to come and see me. Who are you, a doctor? I've never heard of you. Who knows if you have colluded with him to say that I'm not sick?"

Shen Zhengliang laughed and said, "Young man, I see that you are in good spirits, and you don't look like you have a stomachache at all.

Although I, Shen Zhengliang, am not a famous doctor, many neighbors have come to see me for treatment. My Miaoshoutang is right there, so I won’t run away. What are you afraid of?"

Song Sanniang came to Shao Wu and said, "Sir, please make the decision."

Shao Wu squatted down and grabbed Lan San's hand to let Shen Zhengliang feel his pulse. Shen Zhengliang felt his pulse first, then lifted his eyelids to look.

But he went one step further, reaching his hand into Lan San's belly and touching and pressing it, and finally asked Lan San a question. Lan San originally kept silent, but Shao Wu clamped his hand tightly and said in a deep voice, "Answer me."

Lan Sancai opened his mouth, but he couldn't answer the questions asked by Doctor Shen.

Shen Zhengliang shook his head. "This young man didn't have a stomachache, but he felt a little weak in the waist and knees, and his penis was hard but not firm." In short, he was Brother Miao.

Everyone burst into laughter when they heard this. Some women wanted to laugh along but were too embarrassed, so they had to cover their mouths and laugh secretly.

Shao Wu let go of Lan San's hand with a smile and stood up. Song Sanniang was already laughing wildly with her hands on her hips in her heart, but on the surface she had to pretend that she knew nothing and felt extremely painful.

Lan San saw that the medicine boy had disappeared without a trace, so he got up and ran away.

Shao Wu wanted to chase him, but Song Sanniang stopped him and said, "Sir, there is no need to chase him. He will not come again."

Shao Wu had to stop upon hearing this. Song Sanniang thanked him solemnly and said that she would thank him tomorrow. He waved his hand, didn't care much, and went back.

At this time, Doctor Shen was about to leave, and Song Sanniang hurriedly called him, "Doctor Shen, how much is your consultation fee?"

Shen Zhengliang waved his hand, "No need, look at you, a little girl, and you are being blackmailed by a scoundrel."

"No, that won't do. Your doctor's visits are not cheap, and I can't let you go for nothing. How about this, I sell sweet soup, and I'll give you a taste of my sweet soup."

Shen Zhengliang then asked with interest, "Oh? Then I'd like to try it."

Song Sanniang then gave him three bowls of sugar water, and he went back happily.

At this time, the crowd dispersed, and some people did not leave, but waited here to buy Song Sanniang's sweet soup.

He Dafu and Lan San had a good plan. They were even afraid that Song Sanniang would see a doctor, so they bribed the servants of Tong Ren Tang in advance. When they saw people coming to the market to see a doctor, they would stop them and pretend to be doctors to fool them.

Who knew that Song Sanniang would not play by the rules and actually look for Shen Zhengliang again.

When He Dafu saw that Lansan's plan had failed, he was furious and had to go back to Xinghua to report.

Xinghua coldly scolded, "You are really useless. You can't even do such a small thing as the Second Miss asked you to do. How can she dare to hand over important things to you?

I'll give you a little more time. If you can't make her disappear from East Market, your mother's reputation will be in jeopardy."

He Dafu bowed and nodded to see Xinghua off, then began to think of a trick with a sad face.

Song Sanniang also gave two bowls of sweet soup to Uncle Wang, Aunt Wu, and Granny Liu, who had just troubled her, to express her gratitude.

She planned to settle the matter today.

She asked a kid at the market to help run errands and called Qin Haodong and the other two back to look after the stall, and then she went to He's house.
