The Road to Fame as an Imperial Physician

Chapter 003 I will serve you like a cow or a horse

Xie Lingbai regretted that she had offended Wen Changheng. Now that she asked for medicinal materials in the past, she didn't know whether the other party was willing to give them, but no matter what, as long as there was hope, she had to try.

He took the medicinal materials and carried Xie Jinqing to Wen's Mansion in the south of the city. When he reached the gate of Wen's Mansion, it was already dawn and there were more people on the street.

"I want to see Boss Wen, please let me know."

Xie Lingbai tried to keep his attitude as low as possible. This is probably the first time Young Master Xie has spoken to someone in such a low voice after living for so long.

"Our master is not in the mansion."

"How is it possible? I'm really in a hurry. Big brother, could you please let me know?"

"Master went out early in the morning, I don't know when he will be back, Young Master Xie will come back another day."

"I don't believe it, I'll go in and find it myself!"

As soon as Xie Lingbai stepped up the steps, he was stopped by the guards at the door. He looked down at Xie Jinqing who was in his arms, whose face was gradually pale, then turned back and walked down the steps, kneeling down heavily.

"What are you doing?"

"I beg Boss Wen to meet me and save my younger brother. I, Xie Lingbai, will be like an ox and a horse, and I will die."

"Your younger brother will go to the clinic when he's sick. Young Master Xie should not waste time here."

"I'm just short of a medicinal ingredient, please let me know."

The guards were a little bit embarrassed, and one of them turned around and entered the mansion. Xie Lingbai looked at the gate expectantly, and after a while he came out again, shaking his head at Xie Lingbai: "Master Xie, Uncle Chen doesn't know that the master When will you come back, please come back."

"Wen Changheng! Wen Changheng, come out!"

Xie Lingbai shouted towards the door, the guards looked at each other, not knowing what to do, some passers-by around stopped, not understanding what he was doing.

"Wen Changheng, I beg you, please help my younger brother, I was wrong for speaking rudely before, I deserve to die, please help me, my lord, regardless of the villain's faults?"

Xie Lingbai's eyes were a little red. No one had ever seen Young Master Xie like this before. Some people were bullied by him a lot in the past. Now that they saw him down, they deliberately said some ugly words to provoke him. Xie Lingbai turned a deaf ear to it. He just hugged Xie Jinqing and knelt at the gate of Wen Mansion.

After a while, Chen Bo, the steward of the Wen Mansion, also came out to persuade him, but Xie Lingbai insisted on this, and he had no choice but to turn around and go back.

At noon, a carriage stopped slowly at the gate of Wen's mansion. Wen Changheng got out of the car and did not react when he saw Xie Lingbai kneeling at the door, and walked directly to the mansion.

Xie Lingbai heard the discussion, looked up and saw that Wen Changheng had already walked up the steps, and he quickly shouted: "Boss Wen, Boss Wen, please save my brother, please."

Wen Changheng stopped, turned to look at Xie Lingbai, his eyes glanced at Xie Jinqing in his arms, his expression was a little indifferent: "This is Wen's residence, not a medical clinic."

His voice was still the same as what he heard yesterday, it sounded gentle, but it was actually full of alienation.

"All the doctors in the city have seen it. My younger brother has been weak since he was young. He had a high fever after being exposed to the rain last night. In addition to the death of my parents... I..."

"I'm not a doctor, what's the use of you looking for me?"

"I need Lingxi grass, I heard you have it here."

"Lingxicao..." Wen Changheng's voice paused for a moment before continuing: "There is indeed..."

Xie Lingbai was a little happy, but before he could open his mouth, Wen Changheng uttered a few words: "600 taels a plant."

The expression on Xie Lingbai's face froze instantly. If it was the previous 600 taels, he wouldn't even pay attention to it, but now...

"I...I don't have money..."

Wen Changheng turned around and was about to leave, Xie Lingbai hurriedly shouted: "Boss Wen, you, can you do me a favor, first... first give me Lingxicao so that I can save my brother?"

"Wen is just a businessman. He smells like money all over his body. He only has money in his eyes. If Mr. Xie can't come up with 600 taels, he should think of other ways as soon as possible."

Wen Changheng's voice was slow, without any emotion, Xie Lingbai was speechless. He said these words yesterday, and it was like shooting himself in the foot.

"I was wrong. I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I beg Boss Wen to show kindness and help me. I will work hard and work hard. I, Xie Lingbai, will find a way to return the money to you, please. .”

After Xie Lingbai finished speaking, seeing Wen Changheng still walked in, he didn't seem to let go at all, he lost his focus and sat on the ground, all the things were caused by himself.

If he had reflected on himself at home yesterday, he might have known what happened at that time;

If he didn't let Xie Jinqing get wet in the rain, Xie Jinqing wouldn't be like this now;

If he didn't offend Wen Changheng, maybe Wen Changheng would still help...

It's all about him, and it's all about his fault. If he had learned medical skills from his father since he was a child, he wouldn't be so helpless, there is nothing he can do!

"It's all me, I'm the one who hurt you, Xiao Jin..." Xie Lingbai hugged Xie Jinqing and cried: "I grew up in a medical clinic, and I have a father with excellent medical skills, but I don't know anything. , now I can't even save my younger brother, I can only watch you die in my arms..."

Wen Changheng, who had just stepped over the threshold, paused for a moment, his eyes flickered, all the memories he had deliberately forgotten flooded in, and scenes were spread out in front of him, each scene dripping with blood.

"master?"

Wei Ze called out in a low voice. He knew that Wen Changheng probably remembered the past, and was hesitating whether to send Xie Lingbai away.

"Let them in."

Wen Changheng left these words and walked in. Wei Ze was a little surprised, but he didn't hesitate too much. He turned to Xie Lingbai and shouted, "Young Master Xie, my master is here to invite you."

Xie Lingbai was stunned, unable to react for a while, and finally stood up with Xie Jinqing in his arms after Wei Ze disappeared, and walked towards the gate of Wen Mansion with his legs slightly numb.

Uncle Chen came over and took Xie Lingbai to the guest room. Not long after Xie Lingbai put Xie Jinqing down, the maid Xiaorui walked in and handed over a brocade box: "Young Master Xie, this is what the master ordered."

Xie Lingbai took the brocade box and opened it to see that there was a dry medicinal herb lying inside, he thought it might be Lingxi grass.

"Thank you, can I borrow the kitchen?"

"The old slave will take you there, Xiaorui, you stay and take care of Xie Ershao."

"Yes……"

"Thank you Uncle Chen."

Xie Lingbai just heard that the maids seemed to call the housekeeper Uncle Chen. Uncle Chen shook his head and took Xie Lingbai to the kitchen. Xie Lingbai began to boil the medicine according to the doctor's instructions.

It was the first time I did these things, and I was a little flustered. Fortunately, the cooks in the kitchen helped me so that I didn't mess up. Afterwards, Xie Jinqing was given medicine, and Xie Lingbai sat in front of the bed and watched over.

"Young Master Xie, bandage your arm."

Xiaorui came over with some wound medicine, Xie Lingbai waved: "It's a small matter, it's okay."

"It was scalded last night. If you leave it alone, it will ooze more serious pus."

Xiaorui motioned him to reach out, Xie Lingbai's sleeves were rolled up all the time, because the cloth hurt so much when it touched the wound, he thanked, Xiaorui lowered his head to bandage his arm, and then applied medicine to his fingers , It was injured by hitting the ground last night.

"I found that the people in your Wenfu are very nice to others."

The guards, housekeepers, maids, and cooks I met today were all very gentle, Xiaorui smiled and said, "That's because our master is doing well. Alright, I'll bring some food over."

Xie Lingbai sat on the ground and thought about it, how is Wen Changheng?But I can't figure it out, why did he suddenly change his mind and agree to help him when he had refused so coldly before?

Xie Lingbai turned to look at Xie Jinqing who was lying on the bed, get well soon...

Xie Jinqing's fever subsided after taking the medicine, but she remained in a coma with no signs of waking up. Xie Lingbai was a little anxious and went to see the doctor again. The doctor only said that it might take more time.

He put a small stove in the corridor at the door of the room, with medicine jars on it. Every time the medicine was tormented by himself, but he still didn't wake up after several doses of medicine.

In the afternoon of the third day, Wen Changheng asked Uncle Chen in the study: "How is Xie Lingbai?"

"He has been taking care of his younger brother non-stop for three days. It is said that the fever has subsided, but he has been in a coma. If this continues, it may not be very appropriate. The child is not the same as the rumors. The old servant feels that he is not as good as the rumors. bad."

Uncle Chen had dealt with Xie Lingbai many times in the past few days, and he was moved by his care for his younger brother, so it didn't hurt to think of saying something nice for Xie Lingbai.

Wen Changheng didn't say anything, and after sending Uncle Chen off, he got up and went to the courtyard where Xie Lingbai lived, and when he walked in, he was found leaning against the door of the room and falling asleep, probably decocting medicine with a fan in his hand.

He took a look, walked into the guest room to the bed, put his hand on Xie Jinqing's wrist, then returned to the door, bent down to open the lid of the medicine jar, and smelled the medicine inside.

After finishing everything and turning around to leave the yard, Xie Lingbai was still asleep, and it could be seen that he was indeed extremely tired.

"master?"

Wei Ze was a little puzzled as he watched Wen Changheng walk into the medicine shed, and reached out to grab a few medicines.

"Go and replace the herbs in Xie Ling's Baiyao jar."

Wei Ze took the medicinal materials and asked doubtfully, "Is the medicine Xie Lingbai boiled not usable?"

"It's not impossible, it's just that Xie Jinqing's body is weak and he can't bear such a heavy medicine. The medicine is not suitable for him, and the consequences of using it will be disastrous."

Wei Ze nodded, and immediately left the medicine hut to find a medicine pot in the kitchen, put the medicinal materials and water in it, and went to Xie Lingbai's yard to replace the medicine pot.

In the evening, when Wen Changheng was sitting in the dining room having dinner, he heard footsteps from a distance, and then a panting Xie Lingbai appeared in front of him.

"Wen, Boss Wen, my brother is awake!"

Wen Changheng ate by himself, without even raising his head, Xie Lingbai continued: "I'm here to thank Boss Wen for lending me Lingxi grass."

Xie Lingbai didn't know that the medicinal materials that finally cured his younger brother's illness were not the previous ones, and thought that the prescription given by the doctor was really effective, so he felt that it was thanks to Ling Xicao.

Xie Lingbai waited for a while without receiving a response, and gradually calmed down. Looking at the delicious food on the table, her stomach began to growl.

He rubbed his stomach, looked at the dishes, and said bluntly, "I'm a little hungry."

Young Master Xie has lived for 19 years, and he always thinks of what to say. Recently, he has not had a good rest or meal. Now that his brother's illness has improved, he finally feels hungry. The maids around him couldn't help but hear him say that. Laughed low.

"Young Master Xie lives in the guest room of Wen's Mansion, and the kitchen of Wen's Mansion is used to cook medicine, and now he still needs to eat the ingredients of Wen's Mansion. Wen doesn't remember, when did we become so familiar?"

Wen Changheng's voice sounded light, and there was nothing high or unhappy about it. Xie Lingbai said frankly: "Actually, I have eaten many times in the past three days, but I didn't eat much because I was worried about Xiaojin. Now I feel hungry when I feel relieved." Don’t panic, Boss Wen, anyway, I’m going to serve you like an ox or a horse in the future, so I should enjoy the food, right?”

As Xie Lingbai said, she sat down and stared straight at Wen Changheng. Seeing that Wen Changheng didn't object, the servant girl went to serve a bowl of rice and brought over a pair of chopsticks.

"thank you……"

After Xie Lingbai took it, he started to gobble it up. While eating, he praised the food in a vague way. Wen Changheng raised his eyes and looked at him. This person is really...

But looking at his eating, the dishes that were considered tasteless just now seem to be really delicious.
