Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

"I told you I don't know any medical skills, you should go to the hospital."

Qin Huairu knelt down and said, "Old sir, the child's father died early, and I raised him with great difficulty. If you don't save him, our family will be extinct."

"Hurry up, woman. If you kneel down at my door, others will think I did something to you. You are harming me. I have told you many times that I don't know any medical skills."

"Old man, please don't lie to me. You smell so strongly of medicine, how could you not know medical skills? I won't get up unless you agree to see my son." Qin Huairu cried like a pear blossom in the rain.

Qin Huairu picked up the moral blackmail technique which she had not used for many years. It was similar to what she had said before: "We are orphans and widows and we are suffering. Sha Zhu, you are a good man, so please have pity on us orphans and widows." This trick always works on Sha Zhu.

"Hey, come in, come in and talk about something."

Although her face was covered with tears, Qin Huairu felt secretly happy in her heart. This trick of mine really works every time.

Qin Huairu quickly got up and followed the old man in with Banggeng and Pangya. The old man saw people coming in and quickly closed the door.

"I'm telling you, no matter whether I can treat your son's illness or not, you are not allowed to say a word when you leave the house, and you are not allowed to mention me. If you can't do that, you can leave now."

"We can do it, we can do it, and we will definitely not reveal a single word."

After entering the lobby, we walked into a small house on the corner. The house was not big, but it had everything, including a Chinese medicine cabinet.

The old man sat down and said, "Young man, stretch out your arm so I can feel your pulse."

After two or three minutes, the old man frowned. Qin Huairu and Pang Ya felt a little nervous. At least the old man did not sigh. They all knew how terrible a sigh from a Chinese medicine practitioner could be.

The old man spoke slowly, "You guessed it right. I saw the young man had insufficient kidney energy and his steps were unsteady at the door. This is due to excessive indulgence.

It just so happens that this young man has injured his vitality. He must have been frozen, or he is about to die. He was snatched from the hands of the King of Hell. It’s just that the medicine used was too strong. However, under the circumstances at that time, the medicine had to be strong. This person’s medical skills are very good. There is obviously a master, why do you come to me again?”

Qin Huairu and Bang Geng were both shocked. He was able to accurately describe the situation just by feeling the pulse. This Chinese medicine doctor is really amazing.

"What you said is exactly right, old sir, but the old Chinese doctor was very old back then, and I'm afraid he is no longer alive now."

"If this person is still alive, you'd better look for him instead of me. I'm sure the person who asked you to look for my father has also told you that my father's nickname is "Golden Spearman" and he uses precious medicinal materials.

Besides, your son's vitality is very depleted, and he has also indulged himself too much. He can only be nursed back to health slowly, which will take a long time, at least half a year, and it will cost a lot, so you should think carefully about it."

"Mr. Old Man, no matter how much it costs, as long as it can help my son, I will sell everything I have to watch him."

"Okay, since you, as a mother, are so determined, I'll show it to you. I have all the herbs here."

The old man's technique was very professional, and he quickly prepared the medicine. "Remember to boil three bowls of water into one bowl of water, take it once a day, every day. One dose of medicine lasts for seven days. This is three doses of medicine for a course of treatment. Come back to see me after a course of treatment.

Oh, and young men must abstain from sex during this period, otherwise the medicine will be in vain, remember?"

"I've got it all written down. How much is this medicine, old man?"

"45, it's still the cost. I told you it's expensive. If it can't be cured, you don't have to come to me next time."

Qin Huairu calculated that three prescriptions of 45 yuan were not enough for a month, and the money earned by her three workers was barely enough for medical treatment. She also had to spend her savings of the past few years on food. It was indeed expensive, but it would be worth it as long as she could hold her grandson.

"Old man, are you sure my son can take care of it?"

"Since you doubt my medical skills, please leave slowly. I won't see you off."

Qin Huairu quickly took out the money from her clothes and counted forty-five. "No, no, this is 45. Please count."

"Okay, you guys go now. As I said before, once you leave, just pretend you were never here. Don't say a word about me, or don't come next time."

"Why is that, old man? Isn't it a good thing for you to make money by treating patients?"

"Good thing? Who told you it was a good thing? If you hadn't been kneeling at the door shamelessly, I wouldn't have let you in today."

"Old man, why is this?"

"Do you know why my father didn't get it?"

Qin Huairu and the other two shook their heads.

The old man continued, "Although my father was old, he was in good health. Unfortunately, he was dragged away for criticism. How could he, at his age, withstand that? Not long after, he ran out of breath and died of anger."

"Do you know who our lineage used to treat?"

The three of them shook their heads again.

The old man's words were not as calm as before, and there was a bit of resentment in his words. "In the past, our family treated the princes and ministers. After the founding of the country, we also treated the nobles. We rarely treated ordinary people. In fact, we are willing to treat them, but ordinary people can't afford it.

Then my father was labeled a reactionary. Before he died, he asked me not to acknowledge that I had inherited his legacy and not to treat patients. Now you know why I am unwilling to admit that I have medical skills, right? "

"I understand, old man. Don't worry, we will definitely not tell anyone. This not only concerns you, but also my son."

The old man found a cloth bag and put the medicine in it. "Okay, you can go now. Don't let anyone see the medicine. Once you leave this door, I won't admit that I was the one who saw it. Apart from getting medicine, don't come here unless necessary. And don't introduce me to others."

After returning home, Qin Huairu took the medicine jar from Yi Zhonghai. There was only one medicine jar in the compound, and it had been used in rotation. In the past, Auntie often took medicine, so it had always been at Yi Zhonghai's house.

"Mom, don't tell the old man, or he won't let me see him."

"Huai Ru, you still don't trust me? I'm tight-lipped. I just don't know if this medicine is useful. If it's not, I'll destroy that old man's house."

"Mom, it will definitely work. Don't you know that the old man described Bang Geng's condition exactly just by feeling his pulse? He even said that Bang Geng was about to freeze to death. I feel like he is a miracle doctor."

"Oh my goodness, three doses of medicine cost only 45 yuan. This medicine is really made of gold. We spent so much money. Banggeng, you have to do your best and make grandma hold her great-grandson."

"Well, grandma, I promise to let you hold your great-grandson."
