Song Sanqian’s eyes swept on the pale yellow rice paper on his hand. The words on the paper were written by charcoal sticks, which looked quite different from those words written by brush and inks. This reminded him of the prescription Meng Nan showed him before. The handwriting was very similar and was also written with charcoal.
Song Sanqian looked at the young man and woman standing in front of the counter. The man was tall and handsome. His temperament was extraordinary. The woman was petite and pretty. She looked very delicate.
Song Sanqian swept back his eyes to the prescription in his hand, “Zedoary, trigone, leech,pangolin?” He looked up and looked at the young man and woman again, then asked: “This Zedoary and trigone are for blood circulation, but what is the use of these leeches and pangolin?”
Bai Zhi replied: “Naturally, they are for blood circulation and blood clot. Song Dafu, do you know where I can find these four medicines in Qingyuan Town?”
Song Sanqian shook his head: “Its hard to find these four medicines in Qingyuan Town. When I went to the capital 3 years ago, I saw they were selling leech and pangolin, but I’ve never seen them in pharmacies in Qingyuan Town.”
Doctors who have good medical skills go to the capital or other bigger town to make a living. Who would want to stay in a border town like Qingyuan? Without a good doctor, naturally, there will be no good set of medicines.
Bai Zhi was already expecting this result, but she still sighed in disappointment. She stretched out her arm and took back her prescription. She said to Doctor Song and the shopkeeper: “Since we can’t buy it, we’ll only find another way.” Fortunately, it was still autumn. The leeches can be found in ponds and paddy fields.
As for pangolins, she can only make a trip to the mountains.
Bai Zhi didn’t want to go to the mountain again in her life, but now is the best time to treat Hu Feng’s illness. She can’t give up just because she was scared.
Seeing that the two people were leaving after buying Zedoary and trigone, Doctor Song busily caught up: “Miss, I have something to ask.”
Bai Zhi raised an eyebrow and said: “Song Dafu please speak.”
Song Sanqian pointed to the prescription in her hand: “I wonder who is the doctor prescribed this?”
Bai Zhi asked: “Why are you asking this?”
Song Sanqian smiled and slightly embarrassingly said: “This is the case. I have seen a prescription before, the handwriting looks very similar to this, the formula is very good. I always wanted to see this good doctor, but I never had a chance.”
“When I saw the prescription you brought today, I suddenly thought of this good doctor. I hope you can fulfill this little doctor’s wish.”
The handwriting looks very similar to this?
After she came to this world, the only prescriptions she had written was for Meng Nan’s treatment in the face. Was Doctor Song talking about that?
It seems Meng Nan didn’t trust her at the time and showed her prescription to Doctor Song.
Bai Zhi smiled and said: “I also found this by a chance. Who wrote this? I don’t know. I’m sorry, but I can’t help you with this.”
Doctor Song hurriedly waved his hand: “No, no, I was too abrupt, I hope you won’t blame me.”
When Bai Zhi saw Doctor Song was so politeness and courteous, she had a good impression of him. She opened her mouth and said: “When Song Dafu entered the shop, your face doesn’t look so good. Could it be Song Dafu had encountered something bad today?”
After Bai Zhi finished, Doctor Song’s face became ugly. He sighed and said: “Gu Xianling’s son had a cold and cough, but he refused to drink the medicine I prepared because it tastes bitter. His condition is getting worse and worse. The Country Magistrate and his wife are distressed for their son, I can understand this, but his condition is getting worst not because I am lacking in skills, but because their son refused to take medicine, so why is it my fault? They are scolding me all the time and refused to pay my doctor’s fee.”
