Chapter 476: Pettiness
Translator: Lonelytree
“Old master, what should we do? Xiang ‘Er’s body suddenly convulsed again today, and he’s foaming at the mouth. those doctors are completely helpless, old master.” If Lin Yuelan saw the symptoms, she would definitely say that it was epilepsy.
Epilepsy was still a difficult disease for modern people with advanced medical technology, let alone in ancient times when medical conditions were backward.
In a room in the Zhang family’s courtyard, a woman sobbed bitterly.
On the bed in front of them lay a fifteen-year-old teenager with a pale face and a thin body.
“Old master, please think of a way,” the woman turned around and pulled Zhang Wuchang’s sleeve as she implored helplessly, “He’s the only son in our zhang family, old master! ” She looked at the young man on the bed, her eyes full of heartache, worry, helplessness, and a little despair.!!
Zhang Wuchang looked at his only son, who was already beyond cure. He was not as arrogant as he was in front of others. Instead, he was worried and distressed like a father.
Zhang Wuchang said, “Madam, I will definitely find a doctor to treat our son’s illness.” The Zhang family only had this one child to continue their family line. No matter the price, they had to cure their son’s illness.
“But, master, we’ve been looking for all the doctors in the county and all the towns. we even went to the provincial capital to find a doctor, but they couldn’t do anything about our son’s illness.” Zhang Wuchang’s wife said in despair.
Even the best doctor in the provincial capital couldn’t do anything about it. It seemed that he could only go to the capital to find a doctor.
“Master, why don’t we bring our son to the capital?” the woman suggested.
Zhang Wuchang shook his head and said, “Even the best doctor in the provincial capital can’t do anything. I believe that the doctors in the capital will be the same. So, there’s no need to go to the capital! ”
In fact, a trip to Beijing could really make him go bankrupt. The journey to the capital was long, and the road was full of ups and downs. He was worried that his sick son would not be able to bear the fatigue of the journey.
Therefore, although Zhang Wuchang wanted to take his son to the capital, he didn’t dare to bet on any changes that might happen on the way.
However, just as Zhang Wuchang’s wife mentioned going to the capital, she suddenly thought of something. Her eyes immediately burst with strong hope. She pulled Zhang Wuchang and said, “Old master, I remember now. Recently, the town has been spreading the news of the young master of Lin’s medicine hall’s superb medical skills that can bring people who are beyond cure back to life. Old master, let’s go find the young master of the lin medicine shop, Lin Yuelan.”
Mrs. Zhang was a woman who rarely stepped out of her house, and the maidservants and manservants in the house were not talkative people.
Hearing the name Lin Yuelan, Zhang Wuchang’s worried face immediately darkened.
How could he not have gone to find Lin Yuelan?
The news that Lin Yuelan had saved two patients who were on the verge of death had spread like wildfire in the small Ning An town.
It was just that he didn’t believe that a twelve-year-old child had the ability to bring people back to life. He thought those were just rumors.
Therefore, he decided to wait for a while and investigate Lin’s medicine shop first. After confirming whether Lin Yuelan was really that capable, he would go find her.
But what he had never expected was that he was required to kneel around the entire Ning An town and kowtow to admit his mistakes. Of course, he couldn’t agree to such a thing.
However, now that he saw his son lying on the bed, Zhang Wuchang suddenly felt that all those things were unimportant. He only wanted his son to be well.
Zhang Wuchang did not realize his mistake from the beginning to the end. He did not have the right attitude to ask for help.
Zhang Wuchang said to his wife, “madam, don’t worry. I will definitely be able to invite the young mistress of the Lin pharmacy to treat our son. ”
…
Lin Yuelan was sitting on the big tree on the highest peak of mount Da Ao. she was holding her cheeks, and her feet were swaying in the air.
She asked Little Green, “Little Green, have we been too free recently?”
In fact, she wasn’t idle either. She was busy building her house, and there were patients at Lin’s Medicine Hall every day. Most of the time, she would go and guide them if they couldn’t treat the illness. Her reputation as a godly doctor rose. She stuck out her tongue. Her reputation was starting to rival the name of her master whom she had never met before.
