It seems that you are going to flee from famine, don't be anxious or panic

Led by a servant, several people entered the Shangshu Mansion.

Although the Shangshu Mansion's house could not be compared with the one in the original capital, it was much more luxurious than the one where Huo and his family had originally lived. It was also larger in area and the architecture was even more luxurious.

There is a scene every three steps and a painting every five steps.

From the architectural layout of the courtyard and the design of the house to the interior decorations, tables, chairs and utensils, everything demonstrates the wealth and nobility of this place.

Walk through the front hall and into the backyard.

Mr. Zhang Xiangui of the Minister of Rites' Mansion has one wife and several concubines.

He had four legitimate sons and several illegitimate sons.

The four legitimate sons are the eldest son Zhang Feiteng, the younger brother Zhang Xing, the youngest son Zhang He, and the youngest daughter Zhang Min, who are 23, 20, 17, and 16 years old respectively.

The eldest son is currently married and has a son and a daughter.

The backyard is where everyone lives, and there are more than a dozen courtyards of varying sizes.

The servant's goal was very clear, and he took Ning Yan and the others directly to Zhang He's yard.

When I got closer, I saw three traditional Chinese characters written on the wall outside the courtyard: Hemingyuan.

Ning Yan raised his eyes and casually glanced at the words above, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. The naming of this family was really interesting.

Noble, high-ranking officials.

Soar and rise to prominence.

He, famous.

This ambition is all in his name, no wonder he could become the Minister of Rites.

After entering the yard, Ning Yan smelled a very strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine, which made him wrinkle his nose. How long has this medicine been simmering? The whole yard was filled with the smell of medicine.

Ning Jing, who was held in Ning Yan's arms, couldn't help but raise his hand to rub his nose because of the smell of medicine in the yard. He frowned slightly and said to Ning Yan, "Dad, these medicines are so complicated."

He could smell several medicines that appeared in different prescriptions.

When Doctor Jiang heard Ning Jing's words, he turned around and looked at the child in surprise. Such a small child could judge the medicinal materials used by the smell of the boiled medicine?

It seems that he can also determine the treatment prescription to be used by judging the medicinal materials. He is really a good candidate for studying medicine.

Thinking of this, Dr. Jiang's surprised look instantly turned into surprise. If he couldn't abduct the big one, why not abduct the small one?

However, he suppressed his excitement for the time being. Now was not the time to talk. After seeing the doctor, he must have a good chat with this little kid.

Ning Yan nodded when he heard what his son said. It was indeed complicated. It might be difficult to find the right medicine, so he tried all the medicines for each disease.

As the two were talking, they heard the servant who brought them back shout, "Master, Madam, the doctor is back."

After a while, a middle-aged man came out of the room. Seeing so many people coming into the yard at once, he was stunned for a moment, then said, "Madam said that Doctor Jiang should just go in."

Then he looked at Huo and asked doubtfully, "Who are these people?"

Upon hearing this, the servant Ding Nan made an introduction gesture and said, "Butler Zhang, this guy is the doctor I invited. He said he can cure the young master's illness."

"Brother, are you here to treat the young master?" The housekeeper's expression turned a little unhappy when he heard this.

Then he looked at Doctor Jiang and asked, "Doctor Jiang, what is your relationship with this guy?"

"This guy's medical skills are better than mine. I can't do anything about your young master's illness. Butler Zhang, you can rest assured and let him treat the young master." Doctor Jiang said calmly.

Butler Zhang thought for only a few seconds before saying, "In that case, please come in, young man."

Since this young man could earn praise from Doctor Jiang, his medical skills must be quite good. The young master is in urgent need of medical treatment and cannot care about much else right now.

Ning Yan didn't move when he heard this, but instead said to Butler Zhang, "Before I came here, I told you that my consultation fee is very high. I wonder if your family will accept it?"

After hearing this, Butler Zhang first glanced at Ding Nan. After confirming that this was true, he asked seriously, "I wonder how much this brother's consultation fee will be?"

"500 taels of silver, plus 100 taels of silver for medicine, the total is 600 taels of silver." Ning Yan answered slowly.

When Ding Nan heard the price, his eyes widened in surprise. This is so expensive? Is this really an exorbitant price?

When Doctor Jiang heard this, he raised his eyelids and glanced at Ning Yan. He remained silent, but thought in his heart: You are so bold to ask for this. I have been treating patients all my life, but the total medical fees I have received are not even as much as you asked for in one time.

Butler Zhang's face darkened when he heard this. He was wondering whether this guy really knew how to treat illnesses, or was committing fraud in the name of treatment.

However, since this was a medical consultation for the young master, the amount was quite large, and he couldn't make the decision, so he said, "Please wait a moment, my dear. I need to ask my wife for instructions."

Ning Yan gave him a casual look, and then asked naturally, "Can't you find a place for us to sit?"

It's such a hot day, he doesn't want to wait under the sun. Now that someone needs his help, it's not too much to give him a chair to sit on, right?

After hearing this, Doctor Jiang raised his eyelids and looked at Ning Yan again. This guy's style of doing things was really different from others.

He has been practicing medicine for many years and has treated many patients for dignitaries, but he has never dared to make such a request.

In the eyes of the powerful and wealthy, these doctors are just people who serve them. If you fail to cure a disease, they may take your life or send you to jail.

Unless you are very familiar with their family and have equal status with them, don't even think about treating them as guests of honor.

Butler Zhang was also stunned when he heard this. It was the first time he had seen such a bold man who would actually make such a request. It was really unruly and he didn't take their Shangshu Mansion seriously.

Before he could reply, a young woman's voice came from outside the courtyard gate, "Brother, you're here to see the second brother too."

"Yes, I heard from the servants that the doctor from Huichuntang has returned, so I came to see him." Another young man's voice sounded.

As soon as the man finished speaking, he heard the woman sigh and said worriedly, "I don't know if the doctor's medical skills are good enough to cure my second brother's illness this time."

"Don't worry, little sister. I believe that my second brother is a lucky man and will definitely get through it. Let's go in and see him." The man's voice said again.

Not long after, two people, a man and a woman, were seen in the yard, with maids and servants following behind them.

The woman is pretty and lively, and the man is polite and well-mannered, with the demeanor of a young master from a wealthy family.

Ning Gang recognized the woman's voice; it was Zhang Min. The man's voice was unfamiliar, but the person who could make Zhang Min call him "Big Brother" must be Zhang Feiteng, the eldest son of the Shangshu Mansion.

Huo? ignored the people coming in behind him and just waited for the butler to arrange seats for them.
