Chapter 90

"I'll go buy it," Junzi gritted his teeth as he looked at the unconscious Uncle Liang. "I'll go to Gu'an to buy it."

"Just by your accent, they'll dare to ask for an exorbitant price," Tang Ming, who was very familiar with the grudges between the two places, didn't think it was a good idea. "Not to mention whether you have enough money, Uncle Liang can't afford to wait that long."

"Dr. Tang, please show us a way out."

Tang Ming had a solution, but it wouldn't work for Junzi.

"What about... me?" Zhu Changle pointed at her own nose, "There's no problem in this world that the fourth Miss Zhu can't solve. If there is, if there is..."

Zhu Changle turned her finger, "We still have Qiuli!"

Qiuli glanced at her but didn't contradict her.

"Hehe, if it's just going to Gu'an to get some medicine, I have a way," she grinned.

Little Golden had been free for several days, it would be good to let it do some work. She could also ask if Dingding had found out anything, though he had only been gone for a day, well, less than a day. But what could he do? Zhu Changle strongly affirmed her buddy's abilities in her heart.

Tang Ming instinctively wanted to stroke his beard, but when he raised his eyes and saw Zhu Changle's hand, he quickly changed to patting his clothes on his chest. "No one can stop Miss Zhu, of course. Now my only concern is how to prepare a complete prescription to keep Uncle Liang alive."

Zhu Changle understood. Tang Ming was eyeing her family's medicine cabinet!

"Dr. Tang, I'm very easy to talk to. I prefer straightforward talk," she snorted twice before saying, "Tell me, what medicines are you short of?"

Tang Ming stood up and bowed, "I was small-minded. Miss Zhu is pure-hearted and acts openly. It makes me look unsavory in comparison."

"Dr. Tang, you don't need to put yourself down like that. But I'm still happy to be praised," Zhu Changle waved her hand very smugly. "Alright, let's get to the point, we shouldn't waste time... Oh, wait."

Zhu Changle took out the medicines she carried with her and placed them on the table one by one. Qiuli watched her and smiled. She knew the value of these medicines and usually kept them close, but whenever they were needed, she never hesitated to use them. Even the best medicine only becomes a miraculous cure when used correctly to heal people. She understood this principle.

"Dr. Tang, please take a look and see if any of these medicines can be used for Uncle Liang."

After having his intentions exposed by Zhu Changle, Tang Ming never underestimated this Miss Zhu again. He had great expectations for the things she brought out. But when he picked up a bottle, opened the lid, and smelled it, he was stunned. He poured out one pill, examined it carefully, and smelled it carefully. Unbelievably, he opened several more bottles to check, his eyes shining as he looked at Miss Zhu.

"Dr. Tang indeed knows his stuff," Zhu Changle giggled. "Then please see if there's anything that can be used to buy some time until I can get people to find the medicinal herbs."

Tang Ming suppressed the words in his heart, picked up the others to check one by one, and then compared them with the labels on the bottles. He chose one bottle and poured out a pill. "With this, we can stabilize Uncle Liang's condition. However, to fully recover, we still need to prepare a new prescription tailored to his symptoms." seaʀᴄh thё Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"As long as it's useful," Zhu Changle quickly collected the bottles and jars back like a miser, feeling a little pain in her heart. Her treasures had decreased a bit again, she needed to go to the old monk to replenish her stock!

Tang Ming first dissolved the pill in water and fed it to Uncle Liang. He fed very slowly, afraid of wasting even a little bit. Come to think of it, he wasn't originally a stingy person, but nearly two years in Yunbei had worn him down to this state.

"Help Uncle Liang lie down inside, Aunt Liang, please pay attention. If there's any movement from him, call me immediately."

"Yes, yes, thank you, Dr. Tang."

"It's too early to thank me. Thanking Miss Zhu is the right thing to do," Tang Ming said as he walked to the side to write a prescription.

The old woman also knew that it was Miss Zhu who had saved the master's life. She immediately wanted to kneel, but Zhu Changle pulled her up first. "There's no need for that. You are all under my father's jurisdiction. I should help my father solve problems. In the future, just remember his kindness."

It clearly wasn't like that, but when she said it, it seemed to be so. The old woman was no match for her and was coaxed into the inner room with a few words.

Junzi helped carry the person in. After settling him, he came out and hesitantly said, "Dr. Tang, please help look after Uncle Liang for a while. I need to go to the dock. Aunt Liang's and my things are there, and they'll be closing soon at this time."

"Go ahead."

"Thank you, Dr. Tang." Junzi bowed deeply to Zhu Changle again, "Thank you for your great kindness, Miss Zhu."

"If it's great kindness, then remember it on my father's behalf."

"...Yes." Junzi responded uncomfortably and left quickly.

Zhu Changle, who had teased him, laughed loudly, not forgetting to share the fun with Qiuli, "He's really easy to tease. I was worried he might trip over the threshold."

Qiuli used his fan to turn her face away, her saliva had sprayed on his face.

"Ahem." Tang Ming reminded the two that there was still an outsider present. "You don't have a Yunbei accent, so you shouldn't be targeted in Gu'an. However, the quality of medicinal herbs varies. I suggest you buy medicines from the Heart Ease Medical Hall. The medicinal herbs there are of very good quality."

"Heart Ease Medical Hall." Zhu Changle took the prescription and glanced at it, nodding. "Where is it located?"

"In the west of the city, just ask anyone and they'll know."

Zhu Changle was about to agree when Qiuli suddenly said, "I know a doctor in Gu'an. I need to go there anyway, so I'll get the medicine on the way."

"Can we not pay?" Zhu Changle asked eagerly.

"Mm," Qiuli nodded.

Zhu Changle clapped her hands together, "Great! We've saved money again. Let's go, let's go now. The sooner we go, the sooner we'll be back, and we won't delay saving people."

They had just taken two steps when they heard a call from behind, "Wait!"

The two looked at each other, and Zhu Changle turned around, "Dr. Tang, did we forget some medicine?"

Tang Ming had only called out to stop them in his urgency, without having thought of a reason. But when the other party offered him an excuse, he immediately took it. "Yes, I forgot one more medicine."

Zhu Changle handed back the prescription, watching him add another medicine to it.

"Huafeng Ointment?"

"This isn't for Uncle Liang's use. Yunbei is close to the sea, and people often eat seafood, so almost everyone has some form of arthralgia. Some can bear it and it passes, but for others, it's extremely severe, with pain so intense that some even seek death. Huafeng Ointment has a miraculous effect on arthralgia. Although many medical halls have this medicine, the one from Heart Ease Medical Hall is the best. This medicine isn't sold to people from Yunbei, and others might not be able to bring it in, but I think Miss Zhu might have a way."

"You're right, what's difficult for others isn't difficult for me," Zhu Changle took back the prescription. "Then we still need to go to Heart Ease Medical Hall. If we're buying, we should buy the best, right? By the way, Dr. Tang, how much does this Huafeng Ointment cost? I need to ask my mother for money. And what does it look like? Is it a big jar? Or like a plaster?"

"No, it's just a small box this big," Tang Ming drew a circle on his palm. "One tael of silver for each."

"That's not expensive. I can bring more back. Is there anything else you want to add?"

"This is the most useful thing for the locals."

"Alright, then I'm off. See you later."

Tang Ming cupped his hands and saw them off, watching them ride away on horseback. He stared at the empty space for a while before returning to the room.
