The attic has all the information about the past and present, and I became rich by becoming a trader

Li Shande concentrated on taking the little girl's pulse. The others stood far away and dared not make a sound, but their eyes all fell on his weathered face, trying to find some clues.

After a while, he stood up and walked to the counter, picked up the bamboo basket and started to pick up the medicine.

Seeing this, Yuanbao quickly stepped forward and asked, "Grandpa Li, how is my sister? Is she going to die?"

Li Shande said as he picked up the medicine, "It's not too late to deliver it. If it's one day later, there will be no hope."

"So there's hope?" Yuanbao was delighted.

Li Shande took a look at him. Although he was a beggar, the kid was obviously still a child. Li Shande had been practicing medicine all his life, so he couldn't help but feel pity for him.

He then looked at Song Youan, who was standing aside and looking a little strange, hanging out with the beggars. Although he had some doubts in his heart, he was not one to meddle in other people's affairs. He just said, "Since the young lady is willing to pay, I will give this child some high-quality herbs."

"Doctor Li, please use it. As long as it can save her, money is not a problem." Song Youan said quickly.

Li Shande looked at her and nodded, and his movements of getting the medicine became faster.

Finally, the bamboo basket was actually full. To boil so many herbs together, wouldn’t it take a big pot?

However, Li Shande handed the bamboo basket to the little medicine boy and instructed him, "Go and prepare the medicinal bath."

"Yes."

The little medicine boy responded and carried the bamboo basket of herbs into the back hall to boil water.

Li Shande then explained to them earnestly, "This child is too weak. There's both cold and dampness in her body. She needs a medicinal bath to quickly expel it. Otherwise, she'll develop a chronic illness at such a young age."

As he spoke, he looked at Song Youan and said, "Miss, we are both women. I will trouble you to go in and help this little girl take a medicinal bath."

"I?"

Song Youan was subconsciously a little hesitant, but after looking around, he found that he was indeed the most suitable person.

She nodded quickly: "Okay."

Soon the water boiled. After the little medicine boy prepared everything, Song Youan carried the little girl behind the screen in the back hall.

A wooden bathtub, filled with medicinal herbs, exuding a special bitter yet fragrant smell.

The water inside also changed color. Song Youan carefully helped the little girl take off her tattered clothes, only to find out how thin her body was underneath the clothes.

Under the skin in front of the body, the ribs are clearly visible.

After putting her into the bathtub, Song Youan had to hold her with his hands, otherwise the unconscious girl might slip into the bathtub and drown.

Doctor Li said that I should soak my feet for an hour.

It's a small day.

She sat on a small wooden stool, subconsciously staring at the little girl's face. Her hair was messy, with strands stuck together and mixed with mud.

Her face was covered in dirt and her lips were pale, making it impossible to see her appearance.

There was a white handkerchief hanging on the wooden barrel. Song Youan reached out to take it, wet it, and gently began to wipe the little girl's body.

Outside the clinic, Yuanbao and Erliang were sitting on the stone steps waiting.

"Brother Bao, it must cost a lot of money to get so many medicines. How can we return them to the girl?"

Yuan Bao silently watched the people walking on Chang'an Street. After a long silence, he whispered, "I will definitely repay her. I would even sell my life to her."

Er Liang looked at him and had to remind him with facts: "Brother Bao, don't forget, we are beggars, illegal immigrants, not even lowly people."

Illegal residents are not even qualified to be bought and sold, and decent families only buy low-class people when buying people.

Upon hearing this, Yuanbao lowered his head in disappointment.

Yes, he is an illegal resident, and no one would buy his property even if he begged others to. How could he expect to be bought by such a good girl? There is no such good thing.

"Anyway, no matter what, she saved Cai Cai. Cai Cai and I will owe her our whole lives. Even if it means having to eat for the rest of my life, I will pay her back the money I earned today."

"Yes, don't worry, Yuanbao, we are here to help you pay it back!"

Yuanbao looked at Erliang, smiled and nodded.

An hour later, Song Youan took the little girl out of the medicinal bath and dried her body. Although the clothes were dirty, she had no choice but to wear them now.

The girl was carried out from the back hall. After taking a medicinal bath, her face regained some color. After Song Youan wiped off the dirt on her face, it could be seen that the little girl was about six or seven years old and looked very cute.

Yuanbao and Erliang came over. Yuanbao reached out to test the temperature of her forehead, and after touching it, he exclaimed, "Grandpa Li, she's still so hot!"

Li Shande said, "It's normal for her body to feel hot after taking a medicinal bath. Put her on the bed in the side hall first. There's a quilt there."

Song Youan took a look at the little girl's dirty clothes and couldn't help but say to Doctor Li, "I'll also compensate you for the soiled bedding."

Li Shande nodded and said to Yuanbao and Erliang, "You two can't go in. If you want to wait, you can only wait outside the clinic."

"Why... why?"

The little medicine boy looked at Yuanbao and said, "This is a medical clinic. Many people come and go every day. How can you, a bunch of beggars, stay here?"

"us……"

Erliang was dissatisfied, but Yuanbao held him down: "We understand, we will wait outside."

Song Youan took out a fifty-liang silver note and handed it over: "This money is deposited here. Doctor Li, please continue to use the medicine until the little girl is fully recovered."

Fifty taels is certainly enough, and you can never spend it all.

Li Shande couldn't help but look at Song Youan for two more seconds. He didn't think this girl had any connection with beggars, so he still had some respect for her good deeds.

"Don't worry, girl. I will do my best."

Song Youan nodded and looked at Yuanbao and Erliang: "Don't worry, she will be fine."

Yuanbao and Erliang immediately knelt down before Song Youan again. Yuanbao said loudly, "I will never forget your kindness. I swear, I will repay you in the future!"

Song Youan helped the man up and thought for a moment before saying, "Stay with your sister first. We'll talk about the future later."

Yuanbao held back his tears and nodded. After saying goodbye to Song Youan, he watched her back as she walked away.

Song Youan went to the Fuyang Marquis Mansion slowly. When he saw Zhu Ling, there was a young lady sitting in the guest seat.

Song Youan had seen this lady before. On the day when she sold perfume, this lady also went to Youanju.

But this time when they met, the other party looked at her with some more contempt, and the look was a little blatant, and when it fell on Song Youan, she felt confused and puzzled.

Zhu Ling opened her mouth and asked, "You'an, where did you go just now? Sister Siyan said she saw you with several beggars on Chang'an Street just now."

In an instant, Song Youan understood why this lady looked at him like that.
