Chapter 32 Road to Well-off (8)

As expected, the Great East Inn recommended by the cloth farm owner was very close. After turning around the corner, he saw the large restaurant banner.

The inn waiter had a wide range of knowledge, so when he saw the two children carrying an unconscious youth to stay in the inn, he did not reveal much surprise on his face. His gaze quickly stopped at Li Yannian's slightly red and swollen left cheek. As he called for people to come in, he asked smilingly, "Miss, do you want to stay in the shop or do you want to be an expert? The rooms on the second floor are all free, far away from the stairs. It's not noisy at night, so it's just right that you have the patient with you. "

Mao Dou held Li Yannian's hand tightly and looked at the furnishings in the inn curiously. When he saw the shop assistant's gaze sweeping over him, he immediately hid behind his sister.

Li Yannian caressed his head and asked the doorman: "Then we want a room, how much do we get for one night?"

He was not surprised to hear that she only wanted one room, so he replied patiently with a smile, "The middle room is 300 yuan a night. If you decide to pack hot water for lunch, I'll get someone to add a small bed for you in a bit. The room is quite large, and it won't even be crowded if there's an extra bed, do you think that's appropriate?"

Li Yannian nodded. Actually, the price is still expensive, 300 yuan a night, the yuan is more than 600 yuan: "Then we'll get a room, you help to see, which one is suitable is which. I'll also have to trouble you to carry my brother into the house and help me get a doctor back. "

The doorman was hesitating when he heard Li Yannian's words: "Other than the Huichun Hall, there are other medical institutions in this village, right?"

The servant revealed a smile, "Yes there is, but his reputation is not as good as the Huichun Hall's doctor. I was just about to tell you this, if I had another doctor, I could have invited them, but I won't be able to get someone from Huichun Hall. Miss, this might not be the first time you are here, but you may not know that the doctor in charge of the Huichun Hall, Young Master Du, is the fourth young master of the Du Family, the owner of this villa.

Li Yannian was relieved: "That's just nice, there's no need to invite Huichun Hall, you're familiar with the place, so I hope you can help me invite a few doctors, as for running errands, I'll give it to you separately."

The waiters had all made preparations to help out with this trip, and when they heard that there was a reward, they happily said, "Sure, I won't miss any part of your business. I'll be there in a while."

After saying that, he called the servants at the side to help him carry the girls to the Wu Xiang Room on the second floor, and had them bring Li Yannian downstairs to draw and pay the bill. Then, they turned around and hurriedly went to get a doctor.

After settling the deal, Li Yannian told the shop assistant to bring some hot water and food to his room first, then she dragged Mao Dou back to his room. Once she entered, Mao Dou's tears that she had been holding back in front of others flowed down like a river. They startled Li Yannian, and after a while, she couldn't help but feel extremely guilty.

If it wasn't for him being too impulsive today, he wouldn't have put the two brothers in danger. Mao Dou must have been frightened when he saw his big brother, who always stood in front of the two of them, fall to the ground like this. It was also his own fault for being careless and not noticing Mao Dou's abnormal behavior along the way. He really wasn't a competent older sister.

"Dou Dou, don't be afraid. Big Bro is fine. Big Sis has already sent someone to get a doctor. When the doctor comes, everything will be fine. Big Sis is still here, so be good."

As she slowly coaxed him, Mao Dou finally finished venting his emotions. His convulsions slowed down a bit. Coincidentally the hot water and noodles had also arrived, Li Yannian took out a few large coins from his bag and thanked the shop assistant. After squeezing and heating up the handkerchief, he first wiped his little brother's face, then used the original hot water to wipe Black Bean's face on the bed.

Seeing that she still hadn't woken up yet, she sighed in her heart. In fact, she wasn't any less worried than Mao Dou, but she was still a child, so she was afraid that if she felt uncomfortable, she would still cry. She was only half a girl, but she was an adult without a doubt.

"Come on, Dou Dou, let's eat the noodles first. If it's hot, the noodles will turn sticky later."

Mao Dou looked at the steaming hot big bowl of noodles, then looked at Big Brother. He sniffed and asked Li Yannian, "When Big Brother wakes up, Big Sister, don't forget to order a bowl of noodles for Big Brother as well."

Li Yannian smiled gently at him. "Don't worry, big sister will remember this. You eat yours first."

The two siblings had been scared and frightened the whole afternoon. Their stomachs were already empty. The big bowl of noodles was sucked into their stomachs in a few gulps, and they had even drunk all the soup.

With a bit of heat in their stomachs, the two regained some of their spirit. When they heard two knocks on the door, Mao Dou's eyes immediately lit up, and he ran to open the door with his short legs.

"It must be a doctor."

Before Li Yannian could ask who was outside, Mao Dou opened the door. Luckily, the person who came was the waiter who welcomed them downstairs.

Before the waiter could see anyone, he revealed a professional smile, "Lady, the doctor has invited you. Is the patient in there?"

Li Yannian pulled Mao Dou, who was blocking the way, and silently sized up the doctor. Then, he nodded to the assistant: "I'm lying on the bed. The doctor, please, had been unconscious for three-quarters of an hour, and had only fainted when someone had hit him in the back of the neck. Before he fainted, he was rather agitated. He had fought with others before, but it was unknown if it was because of this that he was still unable to wake up. Hurry and take a look, could it be that there's something wrong with that person? "

When the doctor heard her detailed explanation, he had a rough idea of the situation. He stroked his goatee and followed the two siblings around to the back of the screen. Sure enough, he saw a fourteen or fifteen year old boy lying on the bed. He first checked his pulse, then flipped Black Bean's eyelids to take a closer look, and finally got the assistant to help him flip his body over, and extended his hand to touch the red spot on Black Bean's skin.

"Doctor, how is it? Is my brother alright?" Seeing that he did not speak for a long time, Li Yannian was worried, afraid that he would hear some bad news from the doctor's mouth in the next second.

The doctor relaxed and waved his hand. "The patient's breathing is a bit unstable, but it's fine." He still hadn't woken up yet. It was probably due to his shock and excitement. You talk beside him and watch to see if there is any sweat later. If there is, wipe it off in time to keep warm so that the wind won't blow again when you're weak. This old man reckons that at the latest tonight, he will definitely wake up. You all can just wait and see. "

Li Yannian was finally relieved, and a smile appeared on her face: "With your words, we can finally relax. "Doctor, thank you for coming all the way here. Would you like to make a prescription for the medicine?"

The doctor habitually reached out to stroke the goatee, saying in a light tone, "Whether you can open the recipe or not is up to you guys. The doctor habitually reached out to the goatee, saying calmly," Whether you can open the recipe is up to you guys. However, this is also a treatment that cannot be cured. This is the age when one's body is growing, and if one is short, they will eventually fall ill. "

Li Yannian listened and nodded her head: "Since it's like this, then we should ask the doctor to prescribe a set of ingredients and try eating it first."

As he spoke to the shop assistant, he said, "I don't want to bother you two. I have some sick people and some small ones, so it's inconvenient for me to walk around. I'll have to trouble you to run over again and get some medicine from the doctor."

The assistant hurriedly replied, "You are too courteous, Miss. As long as you speak up, I am in charge of my business."

Li Yannian turned to the doctor: "Doctor, look at the prescription and the medical fee, how much should I pay you in total?"

"Since you want the medicine, there's no need for the medical fee. Two hundred and twenty coins is enough."

Li Yannian thought for a while, and then took out the broken silver that she just broke, which was around 4 gold coins, and handed it over to the shop assistant.

"No no no, this is giving too much. "Just run back and forth a few times, it's not worth that much money," the shop assistant repeatedly said. If the generous guest next door gave it to him, he could easily accept it. But Li Yannian was not even as big as his sister, how could he have the face to ask for more money from the three siblings?

Li Yannian smiled slightly: "It's not all for you. Other than the money to catch the medicine, I have to trouble you to buy some candied fruits for me.

Only then did the shop assistant accept it.

Li Yannian sent the two out, and sat beside Mao Dou on the bed. After a short while, another waiter came to collect the bowls, and another came to send the extra beds. After tossing and turning a few times, the person who grabbed the herbs returned as well.

The medicine was sent to the Back Chef to cook, and the candied fruits were bought to coax the beans. This child was worried about him for the rest of the day. Li Yannian did not care that he had mothballed teeth anymore, it was not excessive for him to eat sweet food to pacify and comfort him.

While they were waiting for the medicine to arrive from the kitchen, they heard some pulling sounds coming from outside the door. The reason for the argument was very simple. Originally, they had agreed that the both of them would buy the pepper from the same hometown, but when the Du Family goods arrived, one of the shopkeepers secretly told the shopkeeper that they would eat all of the pepper from the Du Family's cargo ship with a price of 5% higher than the original price.

"Liu Yungui, you don't care about morality, how did you come to my house to beg for my money during New Year's? I read about how I fought with your brother and sold my family's Tian Residence. I only followed you to Du Jia Village every year. Oh, now that you say you don't want to bring me, then don't. We agreed on it at the beginning that each of us will split the money, and we'll split it 50/50 when the goods come out. You can't lose your conscience just because you have so little money! "

He only heard the cold laugh that was called Liu Yungui: "Don't make your words sound too nice. Back then, you were the one who was willing to sell the fields and houses, not the one I made you sell. Besides, I heard it was two peppers and I didn't have enough money to look for you. But now, with less than one stone, I can eat it myself. Why would I need to beg for someone else's help? "

"You! Liu Yungui, are you so determined to not acknowledge money? " the man demanded, his voice shrill with anger.

Liu Yungui sneered again: "Xu Zijun, don't say how arrogant you are. If you were arrogant and didn't recognize money, and only recognized people, then why would you be angry with me right now? Other than the matter of us buying pepper from each other, I am also Liu Yungui, your good brother right? "

Li Yannian's eyes widened as Ge Liang's expression suddenly appeared in her mind. There was actually such a shameless person in this world! It was simply refreshing.

But is pepper expensive here? Two stones was a bit less than a hundred and twenty pounds, which was a total of less than two hundred and forty pounds. This Liu fellow could not afford to eat alone and insisted on coming with him to get the goods, willing to give away half of his profits. And when they found out that the Du Family's goods were not even worth a single stone, the wealth that Pepper had gained was enough to incite Liu Yungui to be a disloyal person without any face.

This made Li Yannian extremely curious about the pepper.

She was just about to ask the assistant about it tomorrow when she heard Mao Dou call out happily from the side, "Brother!" Big sister, quickly look, big brother is awake. "

Li Yannian turned her head, and sure enough, she saw that Black Bean had already opened his eyes, and was looking around in confusion, as if he was still confused about why he suddenly came here.

Li Yannian immediately helped her up, and asked clearly if there was anything wrong with Black Bean's body, and finally calmed her down.
