Quick Wear: Inferiority is the best dowry for men

Chapter 340 Don't Save the Savages on the Roadside 3

"Why are you free today?" Old Sun waited for her to sit on the cow and then whipped it on the cow's butt. The old cow, which was eating grass with its head down, took a step forward.

"There's no medicine left. Go get some."

Old Sun commutes between the town and the village every day to earn some money. Their land was sold to the landlord a few years ago in order to pay for their child's medical treatment. They also wanted to sell the cow at first, but after the child recovered, the cow was kept.

It was He Lu who treated his child's illness in the beginning, and he charged 10 copper coins for the consultation, and used all the money to buy medicine. So when others had to pay 3 copper coins to ride in Old Sun's car, He Sheng and He Lu only had to pay copper coins.

That's why He Sheng always went to the town.

There weren't many entertainment activities in the village, but the town was more lively. In winter, she could spend a few copper coins to buy a string of candied haws and eat them on the roadside, or hang around the candy painting stall and watch the stall owner paint.

There were three other people on the cart, whom He Sheng didn't know. She found a place to sit cross-legged and wait for the cart to arrive at its destination.

……

"Well, we're here. Take your time, my friend. If you want to go back, you can take my car. It's waiting here. I'll take a trip from here every hour. The return trip is still three copper coins. Take your time."

"See you later, Uncle Sun!" He Sheng hurried to the pharmacy in the town. There were four pharmacies in the town, and the medicine from Huichuntang was the best and most expensive, but He Sheng didn't really want to go there...

"Hey, get the medicine!" He Sheng shouted to the waiter in the back hall.

"Here it is." The waiter took out a scale and an abacus. "Where's the prescription?"

"Here it is." He Sheng took out the prescription and showed it to him.

The clerk took a look and said, "This doesn't look like the prescription written by the doctor at Huichuntang. It's some kind of folk remedy. It won't cure the patient. Listen to me. I'll ask our doctor to write you a new one."

This is why He Sheng was reluctant to come.

The medicine is good, but the store is too big to be a big deal...

"This is what your doctor prescribed." He Sheng insisted. How could he prove it?

The waiter pointed at her and said, "Hey, you don't belong to our shop. I'm a waiter here, how could I not know that?!"

Their doctors always prescribe the most expensive medicine, how could they possibly write such a prescription? But he couldn't say it directly, because there were other patients in the back hall.

"It was prescribed by your new doctor. It's normal that you don't recognize it."

The waiter was speechless. A new doctor came to their house a few days ago. He had never seen the doctor's name before, and he didn't know whether the boss had told him how to prescribe medicine.

"Hurry up and get the medicine. There's no time. I want the best!"

As soon as He Sheng said this, the waiter smiled happily. If you want the best, just tell him earlier. He will definitely not argue anymore.

He quickly followed the recipe and He Sheng watched his movements closely. Whenever he noticed that he was about to make some small moves, he would warn him and make sure he didn't get any less than the prescribed amount.

"Ten taels of silver for your kindness."

"You're not right, the last time I came here, I bought the same medicine for only eight taels of silver!" He Sheng slammed the table and pointed at his nose and cursed, "Don't play tricks on me, man!"

His strength was so great that the abacus on the table was shaken crooked.

The guy's face was livid. He was really unlucky. He met a living ancestor who didn't want to suffer any loss. "Okay, okay, 8 taels is 8 taels. Let's go."

He Sheng threw out eight taels of silver and rolled his eyes, "Why are you chasing people away?"

The guy smiled and said, "Take your time, take your time."

He didn't dare to retort at the moment, but he had already started cursing in his heart, "Don't come here, never come again. Huichuntang is such a small temple that can't accommodate a big Buddha like you."

It was still early when he went back, and it would take some time for Uncle Sun's ox cart to arrive. He Sheng touched the remaining money in his bag and turned to the butcher's shop.

Under the pretext of giving the man something good to eat to nourish him, it is not easy for him to come to town, so buy more and let him eat more.

He bought a large piece of pork, two pig's trotters, and two ducks, and then left satisfied.

Passing by a clothing store, she wanted to go in to take a look, but it was inconvenient to carry so many bags in her arms, so she could only regretfully say that she would buy new clothes next time.

He Lu never treated her harshly, but after all, she was just a doctor and it was impossible for someone in the village to be sick every day. She didn't earn much and often had to close her business for half a month, so she had to live frugally.

-

"Uncle Sun, we meet again, hehe." He Sheng got into the car, carrying the meat in one hand and two ducks under his armpits.

Old Sun didn't ask any more questions, but just nodded happily, "Nice to meet you again, wait a moment, if no one comes in another quarter of an hour, then leave."

"Okay, I'm not in a hurry."

Anyway, we got on the bus before the sun set, so it wouldn’t be too late to get back even if the sun set.

Within a quarter of an hour, two people got on the car one after another. When the time was up, Lao Sun drove the old cow back.

The next people to get on the bus were two bookish men, and judging by their conversation, they were indeed reading.

"Brother Zhang, have you heard about the prince's disappearance?"

"I heard about it, what?"

"I heard that there is a reward of 10,000 taels to find the whereabouts of the prince. If we know where the prince is, we don't have to continue studying."

"No, a real man has ambitions to go far and wide. He studies to gain fame and protect the people. How can he be blinded by money?"

"Alas, I don't have the same ambition as you, Brother Zhang. My mother funded my studies to bring honor to our family, but it is really hard for me to study. If I could get this ten thousand taels of gold, my mother would not force me to study."

"This... But Brother Zhao's studies are very good, and he is always praised by the teacher."

"Ah, it was my mother who forced me to do this."

He Sheng couldn't help but look back at this person's appearance. Sure enough, there have always been people who hate studying since ancient times! Fortunately, she doesn't go to school!

She had really had enough of studying in Modern University, enough of it, sixteen years after sixteen, from liberal arts to science, and she was sick of it.

However, He Sheng's attention was also on the 10,000 taels of gold. He wanted so much money. That was 10,000 taels of gold!

The scholar's conversation ended here. He Sheng had been hoping to hear something about the prince's appearance so that she could find the answer, but she didn't expect that the conversation would end here.

But speaking of the prince... He Sheng scratched her head. Why did she remember that the current emperor had few offspring? It seemed that the prince was the only child. Yes, not only did he have no other sons, he didn't even have a daughter!

He Sheng shuddered when he thought of the TV series "The Legend of Zhen Huan" he had watched before. The harem was indeed dangerous. Except for the prince, no other child survived.

No wonder the prince’s disappearance caused such a big fuss, this is the emperor’s only life!

If you think about it this way, the prince's mother is really a ruthless person. She can directly sterilize the entire harem to allow her son to secure the position of prince. That's awesome.

With random thoughts in his mind, the ox cart stopped and Lao Sun said, "We're here. Come find me next time if you need anything. Bye."

The two scholars left first. After He Sheng got off the car, Lao Sun called her, "Sheng girl, wait a moment."
