Chapter 99: Master
She was wearing a bright red trousers suit, which was different from a short one. It was very delicate. Looking at the riding whip in the girl's hand, Chen Xiuyan thought that this was probably a riding outfit.
The person who came here has fair skin, and is made even more chic and carefree by the red clothes. Her hair is tied as high as a man's on her head, her oval face has a pair of phoenix eyes slightly raised, her nose is straight, and her mouth is bright red. She is a sassy little beauty.
Chen Xiuyan didn't expect that the boss of Renjitang was actually a girl. She must be a year or two older than herself. Judging from the way shopkeeper Tu was fawning and respectful towards her, she must have fierce tactics.
"Is this Dr. Chen? I am Guo Miao, the boss of Renji Hall."
Chen Xiuyan was a little surprised when she heard this, "Miss Guo, have you heard that Shopkeeper Yan mentioned me?"
"Of course, Shopkeeper Yan said that Dr. Chen will be in Fucheng in the near future, so he asked me to help and take care of him." Guo Miao said with a smile, "Shopkeeper Yan can have the good fortune of Dr. Chen to help him a lot. Next year, Renji Hall will be in the capital.
When we open a branch, I plan to ask shopkeeper Yan to serve as the shopkeeper."
"Doctor Chen is busy first. We won't disturb you for now. Renjitang will prepare the medicinal materials and people. Just a word from Dr. Chen." Guo Miao winked at the person behind him, and someone came to carry the child to the room in the backyard.
The liquor that Chen Xiuyan mentioned was quickly sent to the room in the backyard. Chen Xiuyan took off the child's clothes and wiped him with a cloth dipped in liquor.
Then someone brought a bowl, and Chen Xiuyan soaked antipyretic medicine in space well water and fed it to the child. Two-quarters of an hour later, she soaked anti-inflammatory medicine and fed it to the child.
"Just wait for now. If you sweat, you can wipe it with warm water. When the heat subsides, there will be nothing wrong. I will give you the next medicine." Chen Xiuyan now has that magical tank, and her attitude towards taking medicine is very grand.
I have no choice but to have enough confidence.
"Thank you, Doctor Chen." The bunt boy bowed deeply to Chen Xiuyan, and then asked in a low voice, "How much money does my brother's illness cost?"
"What's your name?" Chen Xiuyan asked.
"Come Qian, my brother's name is Qian Bao."
"Who else is at home?"
Qian Lai's expression did not change, "It's just me and my brother."
Chen Xiuyan nodded, "How much money do you have on you?"
Qian Lai took out all the silver dimes and copper coins he had in his body. Chen Xiuyan glanced at them and pointed to a silver dime, which was only five or six cents.
"That's it, but I won't take it for now. I'll ask you for it when your brother's fever goes away." After Chen Xiuyan said that, she turned around and left the house.
Guo Miao was drinking tea in the study on the second floor. When Chen Xiuyan went to the lobby, she was invited to the second floor.
Guo Miao didn't move when Chen Xiuyan came in. She stretched out her hand to invite Chen Xiuyan to sit down.
"I wonder if Dr. Chen came to visit today for something?" Guo Miao asked with a smile.
"Now that Dadong knows me, I won't be polite. I have a lot of good medicinal materials on hand. Don't you know Dadong will take them?" Chen Xiuyan said with a smile.
"Of course." Guo Miao laughed after hearing this, "It's just really surprising. I didn't expect Doctor Chen to have so many good medicinal materials."
"Shopkeeper Yan personally came to Fucheng a few days ago and delivered a 200-300-year-old ginseng. Ginseng of this age is hard to come by." Guo Miao was a little excited, "I wonder if Doctor Chen still has it in his hands.
Are there such top-quality medicinal materials?”
"There are some more." Chen Xiuyan said calmly, and then she brought up the basket she had brought for cover, a basket full of good medicinal materials.
There are differences between Fucheng and county towns. The price is higher and the medicinal materials are less than those sold to shopkeeper Yan last time. However, Chen Xiuyan finally pocketed a thousand taels of silver notes, which was a reassuring feeling.
"In the future, Dr. Chen will have good medicinal materials. I hope he can still remember our Renji Hall." Dadongjia and Chen Xiuyan walked down from the second floor and said without forgetting.
"The cooperation between Shopkeeper Yan and me is very pleasant, otherwise I would not still be looking for Renjitang in Fucheng today." Chen Xiuyan expressed her intention.
Guo Miao understood what Chen Xiuyan meant. In her previous involvement with Renjitang, shopkeeper Yan was the middleman.
"Shopkeeper Yan is really lucky." Guo Miao said with a smile, and of course it was Chen Xiuyan who was being praised.
Before reaching the first floor, I looked up and saw three more people walking into Renji Hall. The one with meticulously combed hair was clearly the steward of the Pei Mansion who had come to give gifts before.
"Nanny Pei." Shopkeeper Tu stepped forward to greet her warmly, with a very low posture.
Aunt Pei nodded calmly. Even though she was a slave, walking outside with her back to the high gate represented the face of the Pei family, and others did not dare to underestimate her.
The red figure passed by, not only shopkeeper Tu, but also Guo Miao personally went downstairs to say hello, "Grandma Pei is here."
Grandma Pei turned around and was stunned for a moment, not because of Guo Miao, but because of Chen Xiuyan who came down the stairs.
"Miss Guo San." Grandma Pei said hello to Guo Miao, then walked a few steps, put her hands on her chest, squatted down slightly, and gave a blessing salute to Chen Xiuyan who was walking down, "Ms. Luo family."
"Mommy Pei." Although she didn't like such vulgar etiquette, people in the secular world couldn't avoid it. Chen Xiuyan returned the half-courteous gesture with a smile.
"Why is Madam Luo's wife in the hospital feeling unwell?" Grandma Pei asked with concern.
"Auntie Lao Pei is worried. There is no discomfort." Chen Xiuyan replied with a smile, "I was entrusted by the storekeeper Yan of Renji Hall in Yijiang County. When I came to Fucheng, I made a special trip to the General Medical Center of Renji Hall to have a look."
"It's good that Madam Luo is fine." Grandma Pei twitched her lips and smiled.
"Nanny Pei, go and do your own business. I've finished my work and am about to go back." Chen Xiuyan replied with a smile.
"I'm going to see the Luo family." Guo Miao said in a friendly manner, "Shopkeeper Tu, please treat Grandma Pei well."
Grandma Pei bowed to Chen Xiuyan again, and then did her own thing after others went out. "The ginseng sent by Renji Hall a few days ago was very good. My wife wants to buy another one..."
Chen Xiuyan heard what Nanny Pei said behind her, but she didn't stop. Guo Miao raised her eyebrows and didn't say anything. After Guo Miao invited people to the carriage, she asked with a smile, "I didn't expect that Doctor Chen and the people from the Pei Mansion
acquaintance."
"Some coincidence." Chen Xiuyan did not elaborate.
"Then Doctor Chen doesn't want to use the medicinal materials in his hand to deepen his relationship with the Pei family?" Guo Miao was a little confused.
"If this is the case, then I won't get any money." Chen Xiuyan raised her lips and smiled, "What's more, if you want to be recognized by a wealthy family, do you just need these ginsengs?"
Guo Miao's view of Chen Xiuyan was different. She thought she was just a person with outstanding medical skills, but when she saw it, she realized that it was not simple. Moreover, just now, Grandma Pei called Chen Xiuyan "Ms. of the Luo family", which is generally how people are called.
Most of them are the wives of scholars.
Yes, shopkeeper Yan seemed to have mentioned that Dr. Chen came to Fucheng because her husband-in-law wanted to take the provincial examination.
Guo Miao personally sent Chen Xiuyan to the door of the house where she now lives, and expressed her gratitude, "Numerous officials in the city usually go to the Huichun Hall in the east of the city. Renji Hall came into the Pei Mansion's eyes all because of Dr. Chen's
Excellent medicinal materials, thank you again Dr. Chen."
