The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple
Chapter 76 Li Shaoqing's Secret
No matter what the reason was, it had nothing to do with them. Chu Yunxi just listened to it as gossip. After the hot wontons came, she immediately put the matter out of her mind.
The boss's wontons are especially delicious. When you take a bite, the filling is very fresh and the fragrance is pleasing to the mouth. Xiao Mubei feels a little strange. Wontons are not a rare thing. Why does he feel that today's ones are particularly delicious?
While eating, Bai Yu suddenly said softly: "Your Highness, Miss, it's Li Shaoqing."
Xiao Mubei and Chu Yunxi looked up at the same time and saw Li Jinghong coming out of the clinic next door with a packet of medicine in his hand. He was counting the coins in his hand with his head down. After counting, he sighed and was about to leave with a sad face.
"Li Shaoqing, who is sick?"
Chu Yunxi's voice rang in his ears. Li Jinghong was startled and hid the medicine behind him reflexively. He forced a smile and said, "Miss Chu, why are you here?"
"Not only am I here, the prince is here too." Chu Yunxi glanced to the side, and Li Jinghong followed suit and broke into a sweat. Why was the prince eating wontons at such a small stall?
Xiao Mubei walked over slowly, looked at Li Jinghong's hands hidden behind his back, and said, "Li Shaoqing, if you have any difficulties, you can tell me. We are colleagues and should help each other."
"No, Your Highness, it's just a small matter." Li Jinghong hurriedly denied.
Chu Yunxi didn't give him face and said directly: "You are lying, Li Shaoqing, you hold the medicine in one hand and count the copper coins in the other hand. This is clearly saying that someone in my family is sick and I have no money. Do you think I am right?"
Li Jinghong opened his mouth, but found that he could not refute, so he could only smile bitterly and nodded.
Chu Yunxi smiled and said, "That's right. They are all Dali Temple specializing in solving cases, so there is no need to hide it. Let me guess, Li Shaoqing is not married yet, and he only has an 80-year-old mother at home. The one who is sick is probably your mother, right? You come here..."
Chu Yunxi was stunned for a moment and looked up at the name of the clinic, Jin Yutang. The name didn't sound like a clinic at first glance, but rather a restaurant. The owner must love money like his life.
"Since you came to Jinyutang to get medicine and the money is not much, it means your mother's illness is serious and cannot be cured in other places. You have no choice but to come here to spend money. I wonder if Li Shaoqing's salary is enough to buy medicine again after this time?"
Chu Yunxi's words were really heartbreaking. Although it was true, Li Jinghong was a grown man and he had to save face in public. Hearing this, no matter how good his temper was, he couldn't help but frown.
"Miss Chu, please be careful with your words," Li Jinghong said coldly, "This is my family affair and has nothing to do with Miss Chu. Your Majesty, please forgive my rudeness and I will leave first."
Li Jinghong turned around and left after confessing his crime. Just after taking two steps, he heard Chu Yunxi slowly say behind him: "What if I can treat your mother for free?"
Li Jinghong paused, but did not turn back immediately. It was obvious that he did not completely believe Chu Yunxi's words.
Bai Yu came to his side and whispered in his ear: "When the prince returned from the battlefield, he was almost seriously injured and died. It was Miss Chu who rescued the prince from the gates of hell."
Li Jinghong's body shook violently, and he looked up at Bai Yu, "Really?"
Bai Yu found it funny, "Why would I lie to you?"
Li Jinghong suddenly turned around, grabbed Chu Yunxi's arm, and said, "Miss Chu, I apologize for my rudeness just now. Please save my mother."
Chu Yunxi was peeling chestnuts. She slowly put the chestnuts into her mouth, chewed them slowly and swallowed them before saying, "You were so fierce just now. I don't want to treat you anymore."
Baiyu and Hei Mu turned their heads away in dismay, and said, "Girl, you are so dramatic."
Xiao Mubei also curled the corners of his lips and watched the show with his hands folded.
Only Li Jinghong took it seriously, scratching his head anxiously, "Miss, I was wrong just now, please don't bother with me, as long as you are willing to save my mother, I will do anything for you."
"Really?"
Chu Yunxi glanced at him and saw him nodding anxiously, so she pretended to think about it and said, "Then sit down and eat a bowl of wontons with me and the prince."
"what?"
Li Jinghong was confused. What kind of condition was this?
Chu Yunxi couldn't hold back her laughter. She shouted, "Boss, another bowl of wontons," while pulling Li Jinghong to sit down and said seriously, "Today is the first time I get my monthly salary, so I want to treat my colleagues to a meal. Li Shaoqing, you are willing to give me face, I am very grateful to you. After dinner, I will go back with you to see your mother. Don't worry, since you have spent so much money to treat your mother, there will be no problem for a while."
If something goes wrong so soon, how can Dr. Yan still stay here?
Li Jinghong then realized that Chu Yunxi was just teasing him. He felt mixed emotions and felt even more guilty for his attitude just now.
He hadn't eaten properly recently because of his mother's illness. He had lost weight and his hair was falling out in clumps due to worry. Now that he saw hope again and had a good appetite again, he felt that Chu Yunxi was simply the best person in the world.
As expected, the good person Chu Yunxi followed Li Jinghong home after dinner, and Xiao Mubei naturally followed them. Li Jinghong's residence was in a small alley, with only three tiled houses, and the conditions were obviously very simple.
Chu Yunxi knew that Li Jinghong was admitted through the imperial examination and was not from a family of officials. He was an upright person and never engaged in favoritism or corruption. Naturally, there was not much money to be made from him. Chu Yunxi was mentally prepared for the fact that his family was not well off.
The doors of the rooms were very low, and everyone had to lower their heads to enter. Li Jinghong was the first to enter the room on the east side, and as soon as he entered the door, he shouted, "Mom, I've asked a doctor to come and see you."
As soon as Chu Yunxi entered the room, she smelled a damp and moldy smell. The room was obviously too damp, which was not conducive to the patient's recuperation. She looked at the bed and saw an old woman with gray hair lying there. Her face was full of wrinkles. She heard the words and said tremblingly, "Why did you call the doctor again? I'm fine now."
Li Jinghong knelt beside the bed and said softly, "Mom, this doctor's medical skills are better than the previous one. I'll ask her to see you again and prescribe some medicine for you to recuperate."
Chu Yunxi stepped forward and said, "Hello, Auntie, don't worry. I'm just showing you how to take care of your body. It's nothing serious, don't be afraid."
"You all go out and wait." Chu Yunxi ordered them to leave, and Xiao Mubei and Bai Yu Hei Mu left immediately. Li Jinghong was a little worried, but was dragged out by Bai Yu. Bai Yu only said one sentence to him, "Believe in the girl."
Chu Yunxi sat down next to Li's mother, looked at her complexion, asked her to open her mouth and look at her tongue, then took out a stethoscope and began to listen to the sound of her heart.
