Chapter 506 Missing
Song Ying held his forehead and said, "Auntie Lu's words should be interpreted carefully. It's just an ordinary symptom."
"He's vomiting blood, how can this be a common illness?" Aunt Chen was unconvinced. "Is it cured?"
"The condition is under control. I'll be fine after taking a few more doses of medicine. But I need to get my body back on track and replenish my blood."
"They say one drop of blood equals ten bowls of rice. It's not easy to make up for the blood you vomited. I heard that family is not very wealthy." Aunt Chen felt sorry for that family. It was not easy for common people like them to have enough food, and it was even more difficult to eat well to replenish their bodies.
After all, they were just strangers whom she had never met before. She sighed a few times and then put it aside. She looked at Song Ying with a smile and said, "Now your reputation will spread throughout the city. There will definitely be a lot of people coming to you for treatment in the future.
Song Ying, please talk to your uncle and tell him not to move the clinic to another place. My aunt's preserves shop is counting on you!"
Before, their alley was narrow, with few passers-by, and her business was not doing well. Fortunately, some of the fruits were grown at home, without any cost, and could barely provide enough food and clothing for the family.
I thought this would be the way my life would be, but I didn’t expect to have such good fortune.
As Huichuntang became more famous, more people came to see the doctors, and the business of the shops in their alley also improved a lot.
In particular, her candied fruit shop was right next to Huichun Hall. When there were many patients, Huichun Hall could not accommodate them all, so she took out her own benches and chairs for them to sit on.
Even some poor families would buy some candied fruits as a token of gratitude for sitting on her chair.
What's more, some patients have poor appetites, so she can take this opportunity to promote her candied fruits, and her business is much better than before.
Lin Wenxuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Auntie. My master has lived here for most of his life. He wouldn't be used to moving to another place."
At this time, Doctor Ma came out with his hands behind his back and glared at Lin Wenxuan, "You unfilial disciple, you even framed your master."
Lin Wenxuan shrank his neck and said, "How dare I? It's all the truth."
Doctor Ma glared at him again, then said to Song Ying, "You've been traveling for half a day. Hurry and put the medicine box back and rest."
Song Ying agreed, carried the medicine box in, put it in the pharmacy, and saw Doctor Ma and Lin Wenxuan also coming in.
She thought of Doctor Qi and said, "One more thing..."
He then told the story of Doctor Qi.
After hearing this, Doctor Ma frowned so hard that he could kill a fly. "How can such a person be a doctor? He has no medical prudence at all."
He was a conservative person and really couldn't stand this kind of behavior of showing off medical skills everywhere.
Lin Wenxuan, however, had a strange expression on his face. "Are we in conflict with our colleague named Qi?"
This was so abrupt that Song Ying didn't understand what it meant for a moment.
"The owner of Yanhongtang who made things difficult for Yanxing when she was selling pancreas was also surnamed Qi, wasn't he?"
Song Ying was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, "Really."
Doctor Ma was originally angry about having such an accomplice, but he couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
Lin Wenxuan winked at Song Ying and asked, "Master, what do you think the government will decide in the end?"
Doctor Ma frowned and said, "They probably won't do anything to him. Firstly, it's been so long since the incident, the patient's body must have rotted away, and there won't be any substantial evidence to be found.
Secondly, the government also has to consider the impact. The injured person was seriously injured, and his life or death was uncertain. If the doctor was convicted for failing to treat such a patient, who would dare to treat such a patient in the future?
Song Ying thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. "I hope that after this incident, Doctor Qi will be able to concentrate on improving his medical skills and prevent such things from happening again."
After finishing the pulse diagnosis of the Peng family's child, it was getting dark outside, so Song Ying hurried home.
Tangtang missed the cat very much after not seeing it for a few days. Song Ying had just turned the corner and walked into Yunshuifang when she saw the big snow-white cat running towards her with a nimble figure.
As soon as the front paws touched the ground, the hind paws were already in the air, and the spine was stretched like a straight bowstring while running.
It was like lightning, and in the blink of an eye it had already rushed forward. It stomped its front paws hard, and the sand exploded under its claws, raising a cloud of yellow sand. Its two hind legs slid diagonally in a handsome manner, and it was only then that it managed to stop its speed. Of course, it inevitably raised a cloud of yellow sand.
Song Ying took a few steps back and quickly covered his mouth and nose to prevent sand from being inhaled.
As soon as Tangtang at her feet stopped, she raised her head and meowed at her in a very choked voice.
Song Ying ignored the yellow sand and suddenly squatted down to cover its mouth. "Fairy Board, the sand is sucked into its mouth."
Tangtang didn't care. She broke free from her hand and continued to meow. She also rubbed her head against her hand and legs affectionately.
"Okay, touch it, touch it, stop barking, and shut your mouth." As he spoke, Song Ying quickly stroked its head.
Tangtang of course stopped barking and started making gurgling sounds. The sound was so loud that Song Ying even suspected that the sand that had not settled for a long time was shaken up by the gurgling sounds.
As soon as she stopped, it would slightly arch its back and walk around her, rubbing against her, and occasionally look up and meow.
If Song Ying were to leave it lying on the ground like this, he wouldn't be able to walk properly.
She simply picked it up and stroked its head as she walked.
I haven't petted a cat for several days and I really miss the feel of it.
Tangtang's previous abnormal behavior attracted Luo Yanxing's attention. She finished the task at hand as quickly as possible and followed him out, just in time to see Song Ying coming back with Tangtang in her arms.
"I was wondering why Tangtang suddenly ran out. Could this guy really be a spirit? He can tell you're back even through the doors, windows, and walls."
Song Ying was a little surprised. She thought Tangtang was still squatting on the wooden stake by the roadside as before.
"Cats have a much better sense of smell and hearing than humans. Maybe it recognized my footsteps, or maybe it smelled me."
No matter which one it was, Song Ying was very happy. Her cat could recognize her footsteps among the complicated footsteps and distinguish her scent from the complex smells.
Luo Yanxing was very jealous of her smug look. She stayed at home with Tangtang every day, preparing food and feeding it water, but she had never seen it be so affectionate to her.
She still felt that the cat had become a spirit and knew who its real master was.
Forget it. She wasn't going to argue with a cat. "Well, well, did Yuan Qing pass the exam?"
Song Ying's smile grew even wider. "I passed the exam and ranked second."
"Amazing! I heard that there are old students in their thirties, forties, sixties, and seventies who take the imperial examinations. He has only studied for a few years, but he can surpass those who have studied for a long time. It seems that he really has a talent for studying!"
Thinking of those sad faces and those hunched backs, Song Ying couldn't help but sigh, "Studying for a long time doesn't guarantee profound knowledge. It depends on both talent and a person's dedication."
