Jiang Changgong smiled awkwardly, "No, I just came out of his room."
"What? The conversation wasn't very pleasant?" He Tiantian asked, holding a cup of tea.
Jiang Changgong watched Hong Lu go out, and then sighed heavily, "Tian Tian, something big happened! Jiang Yin and the others are so ill-intentioned that they actually encouraged your father-in-law to take a concubine!"
He Tiantian suddenly spit out the sip of tea he had just drank, "What?! Taking a concubine?!"
"No..." Jiang Changgong said with a grimace, repeating Jiang Shi's words exactly. Naturally, he concealed the parts that were difficult to say, "I think Jiang Yin really cannot be taken in!"
He Tiantian frowned and thought hard, "When I asked him to be a witness, he had to give me something in return. I couldn't just watch him squat in Jiang's house and sit there for nothing, just as if I had paid him to be a witness. Anyway, he didn't even cost a hundred taels.
No flowers. But tell me, why is my father so confused that he would have such an idea?"
Jiang Changgong was about to speak but stopped.
Even though they were both adults, he still couldn't say what those men and women said.
He Tiantian sighed, "Well, I've been very busy recently and may have to go out. I can only tell the accountant first and ask them to give my father some money. Since there is no money, he put the matter aside."
Jiang Changgong nodded.
He Tiantian looked at each other without saying anything.
Seeing He Tiantian frowning and saying nothing, he asked in many words: "What? Is there something wrong with this Uncaria?"
Not only were many people curious about this matter, but Jiang Changgong was also very curious, so everyone waited for the doctor to come over.
Xu Aji glanced at her lightly, then lowered his head, "My mother is seriously ill..."
Hong Lu curled his lips, "I told you not to go to Huichun Hall, you deserve to be deceived!"
Duo Yan gave her a blank look, "Don't I think Mrs. Jiang is in a hurry and can't buy it?"
Jia Fang consciously stepped forward and said: "Brother, I am the doctor of Nanshan Hall, why don't you let me take a look at it for you?"
He Tiantian said hurriedly: "Don't kneel down, hurry up and lead the way, let Dr. Jia take a look."
Several people walked into the room, but Mrs. Xu remained motionless. If her chest hadn't risen and fallen extremely weakly, they would have thought she had died.
After coming out of Jiang Mansion, Hong Lu led a few people to Xu Aji's house, and saw Xu Aji sitting in the courtyard with his head bowed, boiling medicine, and there was a sense of languor in his whole person.
Duo Yan immediately stood up angrily, "This time you return to the spring hall! How dare you lie and deceive people!"
Jiang Changgong nodded quickly, "Okay! I'll go back to organize it right now!"
Hong Lu unconsciously took two steps quickly, "I said Xu Aji, what's wrong with you?"
"I don't know either..." Xu Aji looked helpless, "I've been taking the medicine and never had it..."
Hong Lu curled her lips and stopped talking, but after a moment, she suddenly looked at He Tiantian who had a gloomy face, "Madam, there is something I haven't said."
While the two were talking, a lot of words of Uncaria arrived.
"Madam!" Hong Lu whispered, with an inexplicable excitement in his voice, "Are you going to destroy the Huichun Hall?"
Jia Fang agreed and wanted to follow him after many words. Jiang Changgong stood up and said: "Then I will go back first..."
Xu Aji raised his head and was stunned for a long time before saying: "No, no need..."
Although all medicinal materials have to be processed, this Uncaria has almost been processed into powder, which always feels strange.
Calculating it this way, people really can't afford Nanshan Hall's medicine.
Mother and son each sleep in a bed. Xu Aji's bed also has a mattress, but Xu Aji's bed is only covered with a thin layer of hay. I think all the money Xu Aji earned has been used for Xu's medical treatment and medicine.
He Tiantian and Jia Fang looked at each other.
This sentence really hit Xu Aji's heart. A faint bitter smile appeared on his lips, and he looked at Hong Lu, "I know you mean well, but the medicine in Nanshan Hall is really too expensive. How much does it cost to take a few doses of medicine?"
, it’s enough for us to eat for a year, how can ordinary people afford to eat like this all year round?”
In fact, there is no need to lead the way. The Xu family only has two rooms, the other one is for storing sundries, and only this one is inhabited.
He Tiantian couldn't help laughing, "What are you talking about? I want these people to have other uses."
"Hey! OK, OK!" Xu Aji's voice suddenly became much lighter.
He Tiantian's face darkened and he said to Jia Fang: "Sir, please come with me to see what disease Xu Aji's mother has."
He Tiantian shook his head, "Let the doctor take a look. I don't know much about medicinal materials."
He Tiantian handed him the package of Uncaria. Jia Fang looked at it, smelled it, tasted it again, and then shook his head, "Madam, where did this medicine residue come from?"
The corners of Xu Aji's mouth trembled, and then he gradually opened his grin. He immediately moved to the side and knelt down, wanting to kowtow to He Tiantian, "Thank you, madam..."
"You said."
He didn't need a doctor to come and take a look. He Tiantian felt that something was wrong just by looking at it.
After a while, Hong Lu took Jia Fang, the sitting doctor, through the door.
Hong Lu was just about to get angry, but he stamped his foot and said, "You idiot! This is my wife! She asked the doctor to give your mother a free examination. Why are you still blabbering here?"
"How could she be seriously ill?" A look of anxiety appeared on Hong Lu's face, "Last time I came here, I saw that she could still sit up."
He Tiantian stopped in front of him and said, "Uncle Chang Gong, I need some manpower. Please help me go back and organize a hundred people..."
Hong Lu then told the story that Xu Aji’s mother had been taking medicine at Huichun Hall, and said that it seemed that Xu Aji’s mother had been taking medicine at Huichun Hall all year round.
He Tiantian was already worried because she couldn't buy Uncaria, and after many talks about buying a bunch of fake medicines, she was even more annoyed. So she suddenly stood up and said: "Tell me in detail!"
"I heard the salesman Xu Aji say before that Huichuntang's medicines are much cheaper than ours. At that time, I felt something was wrong. Now that I think about it, it's because they are using fake medicines, right?"
Jia Fang turned around and looked at He Tiantian. He Tiantian nodded slightly, and Jia Fang said again: "Brother, I don't charge a consultation fee."
Duo Yan was the first to open his eyes, "What?! Drug dregs?"
Jia Fang chuckled lightly, "It's an exaggeration to say that medicine residue is used, but this thing really doesn't have much effect. It is ivy with very little medicinal effect. It is mixed with ordinary flower vines. It can at most clear away heat and detoxify a little, but it is far less effective.
The blood-activating effect of Uncaria!"
"Then I'll wait a minute. I'm really curious as to why the Uncaria from Huichun Hall is sold so cheaply."
Jia Fang hurriedly stepped forward and took her pulse.
Despite all this trouble, Mrs. Xu still made no movement. Without opening her eyes, she even whispered: "Aji, is your father back?"
Xu Aji's mood, which had just improved, gradually sank a little. He could only look at Jia Fang with hope.
Jia Fang straightened up, looked at Xu Aji, then at He Tiantian, and then whispered: "Madam, please take a step to speak."
