Reborn, the daughter of the Marquisate went crazy
Chapter 8 Zhu Yucao
Mrs. Zhang could no longer bear it: "Old Doctor Xue, I am just a foolish country woman, with limited knowledge and crude language, but there are some things I can't help but say, please don't mind."
"You say your medical skills are not very good, but that's just your modesty. But my son Shou'an is not critically ill, so please be careful with your words!"
She clasped her hands together and bowed to the sky: "Fortunately, the Bodhisattva has blessed us. A miraculous doctor has lived in seclusion in this remote village. It is a blessing to meet him. I wish you a long life and a happy life."
"These two genius doctors are honored guests of our mansion. Please, Old Doctor Xue, stop calling them liars. If you anger the genius doctors, we in the Zhang family will not know how to deal with it."
Mr. Zhang really wanted to applaud Madam Zhang. He almost couldn't help but hit the old woman just now.
Doctor Xue was dumbfounded. Had the old woman from the Zhang family gone insane? How could she disrespect him like this? If Zhang Shouan could be saved from that state, he would write the three characters "Xue Henian" backwards. Humph!!!
As the atmosphere in the courtyard reached a stalemate, the bedroom door creaked open. Everyone craned their necks to look inside, and Mr. and Mrs. Zhang stumbled toward the bed.
Zhang Shouan still had his eyes closed, but his expression was peaceful, and his face was no longer as pale as before.
Hu Er said to the two men, "Most of the toxins in Master Zhang's body have been expelled. He will wake up in about two or three hours."
Mr. and Mrs. Zhang were a little excited. Zhang Shouan had been in a coma for half a month, and they would be thankful if he could wake up.
Old Doctor Xue walked in slowly. He came to see if Zhang Shouan had been cured to death. It would be more interesting to see such a joke in person.
But when he saw that Zhang Shouan's complexion was very different from yesterday, he was shocked. He stepped forward quickly and held Zhang Shouan's pulse. Although it was not as strong as that of an ordinary person, it was definitely not the pulse of a dying person.
Doctor Xue shook his head repeatedly, muttering, "Impossible, impossible. How could this be possible for two peasants?"
Over there, no one paid any attention to Doctor Xue's incompetence. Mr. Zhang held Hu Er's hand, too excited to speak. Mrs. Zhang clasped her hands together, repeatedly thanking the Buddha for his protection.
Hu Er took out another brocade box and told Master Zhang, "This is another magical medicine. When Master Zhang wakes up, dissolve it in water and take it."
Beside the bed, Old Doctor Xue, who was still in self-doubt, heard the words "miracle medicine", suddenly stood up and ran over, snatching the pill away.
He held up the pill and looked at it again and again, smelled it again and again, and even licked it. He could identify most of the medicinal ingredients, but he didn't know what one or two were.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhang gathered around Old Doctor Xue with nervous expressions. The doctor said that there were only two pills of this miracle drug, which must be extremely precious. He was really afraid that the old man would swallow it all in one gulp.
When Mr. Zhang saw the old doctor Xue licking the magic medicine with his tongue, he could no longer hold back. He snatched the magic medicine away and wiped it carefully with his sleeve. This was Shou'an's life-saving medicine, and it was licked by this old guy. It was really disgusting!
Old Doctor Xue didn't bother to scold Master Zhang, but secretly complained in his heart: "I was wondering, how could my medical skills be inferior to these two peasants? It turns out it's because of the miracle medicine. Miracle medicine! How did these two peasants get it for free?"
Old Doctor Xue turned around and shouted, "Hu Er, tell the truth. Where did you steal this medicine? Hand over the rest of the medicine quickly, or I will send you to see the authorities." Greed gleamed in his eyes.
Hu Er looked at the old man with triangular eyes in front of him, feeling a little puzzled. Where did this madman come from? He rolled his eyes and ignored Doctor Xue.
Doctor Xue was furious. He had endured more humiliation in the past two days than in his entire life. If he didn't teach this disrespectful peasant a lesson today, he wouldn't be called Xue.
"Hu Er, I have verified that you haven't studied under a renowned teacher. You've only learned the basics from your father, who came from a humble background. How dare you treat patients? Your medical skills are mediocre, unable to even cure a cold. You are simply disregarding human life. Your reputation as a miracle doctor is a fraud, a deception, and a disgrace to the medical profession. How could you possibly deserve this miraculous medicine?"
Hu Er never thought that his past would be revealed completely by this old man. Faced with the old man's aggressive questioning, he broke out in cold sweat.
Seeing that the old man was elegantly dressed and had a defiant look, and that he not only claimed to be an official but also questioned people on behalf of the medical profession without authorization, Xie Qingli guessed that this man was the legendary Doctor Xue.
She said slowly, "I gave this medicine to Brother Hu. Why do the government still control the distribution of rice, vegetables, and eggs between neighbors?"
Old Doctor Xue turned around and glanced at Xie Qingli. How dare this little girl, who was still wet behind the ears, interrupt him? She was so bold.
Before Old Doctor Xue could get angry, Xie Qingli's annoying words came again: "Why, you want to tell me where a country girl like me got this miracle medicine? Tell the truth, or I'll see the authorities."
"No need for you to threaten me, I'll just tell you the truth." Xie Qingli chuckled and spread his hands, saying, "This medicine was passed down to me by my master. As for my master's name, I don't know; and I don't know where he is now."
Old Doctor Xue felt a tightness in his chest. This little bitch actually dared to fool him with lies. He shouted sternly, "How dare you, little girl, use lies to evade me! How could anyone not know the name of their own master or his whereabouts? Humph, this fabricated master, I'm afraid you don't even know what he looks like, right?"
Xie Qingli smiled brightly and innocently: "Of course I know what Master looks like. Master is the most handsome Taoist priest in the world. He has a broad mind and is a very powerful person in the world."
Old Doctor Xue originally thought that Xie Qingli was talking nonsense, but when he heard that it was a Taoist priest, he was shocked. Could a Taoist priest with such superb medical skills be the old Taoist Lingxu?
He remained calm and feigned anger, saying, "You still don't admit that you're just lying? How could a lowly country girl like you have the chance to meet such a formidable figure, let alone become his disciple?"
Xie Qingli seemed oblivious to Old Doctor Xue's disparagement. "How difficult is that? Opportunities often come to those who are lucky. I just go up the mountain every day to collect firewood. One day, I happened to see Master resting on the mountainside. The weather was hot, so I gave him some wild fruits I had picked to quench his thirst."
She smiled proudly: "I never thought that good deeds would be rewarded. My master said that I was gifted and accepted me as his disciple. Speaking of which, I miss him so much!" She looked a little melancholy. The story was made up, but the longing was real.
Upon hearing this, Old Doctor Xue gritted his teeth. Could a few wild fruits move him?
At that time, he heard that Taoist Lingxu could revive the dead and turn bones into flesh, and he admired such medical skills very much and sincerely wanted to worship Taoist Lingxu as his teacher.
However, Taoist Lingxu was traveling everywhere and his whereabouts were unknown. He spent several years trying to find out and finally found out where Taoist Lingxu was. He knelt devoutly in front of Taoist Lingxu's door and prayed for three days, but Taoist Lingxu never showed up.
He did not give up and rushed into the house. The house was empty without him knowing, but he knelt there like a fool for three days.
At that time, Old Doctor Xue was already a well-known doctor, respected by everyone, but Taoist Lingxu played tricks on him and let him down, so he hated Taoist Lingxu from then on.
Now, the hatred in the heart of old doctor Xue was growing wildly. Why could this inferior and cheap girl in front of him get what he couldn't get?
He could no longer suppress the jealousy in his heart, and his face twisted: "Your words are still untrustworthy. Only if you tell me the formula of this medicine can you prove that you didn't steal it."
Xie Qingli said innocently, "How difficult is that?"
Doctor Xue's face was full of greed: "Hurry up and tell me!!!"
The rest of the people in the room were all nervous. Doctor Xue's greed and jealousy were clearly visible on his face. The little girl was too naive to see his true face. Hu Er quickly ran to Xie Qingli, intending to cover her mouth.
Xie Qingli's clear voice could be heard: "Astragalus, Bupleurum, Ginseng, Pinellia, Licorice..." She counted on her fingers and slapped her forehead: "Oh, yes, there is also the most important magical herb."
"Magic herb? What's its name?" Old Doctor Xue stared at Xie Qingli with his triangular eyes, feeling ecstatic. Yes, this was the magical herb. He had identified the other herbs before.
Xie Qingli said sarcastically, "Zhu Yucao! How can you be an imperial physician if you don't even know this? No wonder you can't meet a master like Master."
Old Doctor Xue was furious...
He fought hard to suppress the rage that had already surged to his head: "What are the habits of the Zhuyu grass, and what does it look like?"
Xie Qingli spread his hands: "What's the point of knowing its habits and appearance? There is only one of its kind in the world."
Doctor Xue was so angry that he saw stars and his face turned pale: "Draw a picture of Zhu Yucao for me!!!"
Xie Qingli pointed at himself with a puzzled look on his face. "Me? Do I look like someone who has studied painting? I can paint for you, but wait another ten or eight years! I'll immediately find a master who is good at painting to teach me."
Old Doctor Xue was almost driven to death by Xie Qingli's stubborn attitude. He glanced at the crowd who were watching the show with great interest and left in anger.
Zhu Yucao, Zhu Yucao, he just didn't believe that even if he gave everything he had, Xue Hanian couldn't find it...
