Pseudo master, she just wants to live

Chapter 27

The tent is quite big, but it is very stuffy, and the strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine still lingers in the room, which makes people feel a little breathless.

"Ma'am, what's wrong with your body?"

Doctor Cui put down his brush, his voice was as gentle as jade.

"Ah, it's like this..."

Fang Yao sat down on the stool, flipped up her outer shirt to breathe out, and looked around in the tent with her head, just like a grandma who entered the Grand View Garden for the first time.

The young doctor sitting opposite was covered with a veil. Although it was late at night, he was still neatly dressed, and there were fine beads of sweat on his white forehead.

On the simple small wooden table in front of him were some medical books, wet inkstones, and a folded piece of yellow plain paper.

Most of the plain paper was covered by the medical book, only the upper left corner was exposed. Fang Yao had good eyesight, so she could see the only word "Zou" exposed at a glance.

She quickly swept across it calmly, as if she hadn't seen anything, and her eyes turned around in the tent again, before falling on Dr. Cui who was showing doubts.

Fang Yao grinned, chuckled twice, leaned closer to the other party and said, "Doctor Cui, I'm not uncomfortable at all, but there is one thing I want to discuss with the doctor..."

The two sides got a little closer, and the mild musty smell from Fang Yao's body came into Dr. Cui's nose. He leaned back a little uncomfortably, and said in a good-tempered manner: "Da, aunt, I can hear what you say, you don't have to rely on it." so……"

Before he finished speaking, Fang Yao suddenly took out the purse and carefully poured out a green moldy ball from it.

Fang Yao lowered her voice and said mysteriously: "Doctor Cui, dozens of people in the neighboring villages have died from the epidemic, but Lijia Village is almost safe, safe..."

"Safe and sound."

"That's right, safe and sound, you are officials who are educated... Hehe." Fang Yao said mysteriously, "Don't you think it's strange?"

Almost instantly, a bold idea flashed in Dr. Cui's mind, he stared at the thing in Fang Yao's hand in disbelief, his voice trembling slightly: "This is..."

"Yes, this is the antidote."

Fang Yao's voice was lower, and Dr. Cui didn't care much at this time, and even took the initiative to get closer.

The smell of this pill is very special, he finally remembered that all the patients had the same smell during the day.

At that time, he thought that he was infected with the epidemic, and his body would emit that strange smell. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the antidote!
"This is something our villagers accidentally discovered. The quantity is limited. At first, everyone didn't dare to tell the outside, because they were afraid that they would not have enough and they would be snatched away. But you are different, you..."

Fang Yao paused, showing a very ignorant and poor look, and asked nervously, "Are you really a doctor sent by the emperor?"

Dr. Cui suppressed the excitement in his heart, and his voice was as gentle as possible: "It's me, I'm the imperial physician in the palace, the emperor specially sent me here."

Fang Yao's eyes widened and she said in surprise, "Emperor physician, aren't you a great official?"

Except for a very few imperial physicians in Daxiang Country, most of them are not of high taste, not to mention the newly recruited young physician Dr. Cui, who coughed in embarrassment: "...these are not very important, ma'am, can you take the pills in your hand? , show me?"

"Of course, of course."

Fang Yao said so, but she didn't really hand over the pills, and her eyes were squinting and turning around.

Dr. Cui smiled faintly: "Ma'am, if you have any request, just tell me, and Cui will find a way to solve it as much as possible."

Smart enough, direct enough.

Fang Yao thought to herself, those who work around the emperor really don't have any pure and good people.

She immediately showed an exaggerated and flattering smile, patted Dr. Cui on the shoulder coyly, and flattered her: "It's still Imperial Doctor Cui who knows how to be sympathetic to the people, I, I handed over such an important thing, on the one hand, I want to help our emperor share the worries." To solve the problem, on the other hand, I also want to exchange some money or food..."

"Then ma'am, please make a price." Dr. Cui, who experienced the sturdy folk customs of the mountains and countryside from Fang Yao for the first time, silently backed away half a step, avoiding Fang Yao's clutches.

"Then give me ten catties of rice, five catties of noodles, and ten taels of silver!"

Fang Yao has inquired and researched it a long time ago. The ten taels of silver in Daxiang Kingdom used to be converted into soft sister coins, which was almost 1 yuan, but now wars, famines and plagues, food prices have risen sharply, and ten taels of silver is almost 2000 yuan. The purchasing power of [-] yuan.

Her request was not too much. Although Dr. Cui's salary was not high, he didn't think too much about it. He just said with some pain, "Is there only this one pill?"

Fang Yao calculated that after the villagers recovered, there would still be more than ten pills left. Of course, it was impossible to give them all, so she stretched out another finger: "There are two pills in total. The pills are too big, Cui You are not bad, doctor!"

Dr. Cui smiled, and immediately took out a silver ingot the size of a baby's fist from the purse he was carrying, and put it on the table.

The surface of this silver ingot was black, and it was still full of pits and tatters. It was not what Fang Yao imagined. If such a lump fell on the ground, she probably wouldn't even look at it.

Fang Yao picked it up suspiciously, weighed it, tapped it again, and finally put it to her mouth, holding back her nausea, and bit it, and it really moved!
Her appearance fell in Dr. Cui's eyes, and a trace of contempt flashed very quickly in the latter's eyes.

"Then thank you Doctor Cui, don't tell anyone else about this, or the patriarch will blame me." Fang Yao raised her head, this time she really smiled so much that her eyes narrowed.

Dr. Cui naturally promised again and again that he would not say anything, and ordered Yaotong to pack the food, and then personally sent Fang Yao out of the tent.

And Fan Chen, who had been waiting outside for a while, finally saw the two of them coming out together with happy faces.

He watched with a complicated expression as the wretched aunt took away the food specially prepared for Dr. Cui by the county magistrate Liyang, and then "hands and feet" with Dr. Cui before leaving...

"Scum!"

He couldn't help muttering in a low voice, and walked over quickly as soon as Fang Yao left.

"Young Master Fan, you haven't rested yet?" Dr. Cui had actually seen him a long time ago, "That's great, I have something to tell you."

Fan Chen nodded: "Exactly, I have something to discuss with you."

The two glanced at Fang Yao's leaving back at the same time, and then entered the tent one after another.

As soon as he sat down, Fan Chen said: "I've checked, and there are indeed strange things in this village. Just now, I went around the village for a week, and no one had a mania attack. Dr. Cui should report the strange things in Li's Village to the emperor in time."

Dr. Cui smiled: "Naturally, I have already written a memorial, intending that if no one in the village tells the truth tomorrow, I will pray to the holy majesty for a decree and take tough measures."

"So it is?" Fan Chen keenly grasped the point, and then remembered the appearance of that wretched lady eating and taking from Dr. Cui, and suddenly said, "That woman just now? Could it be that she came to you..."

Dr. Cui smiled and said: "That's right, she took the initiative to tell me the truth, and exchanged the pill for some food and silver."

"Tsk tsk." Fan Chen showed disgust and snorted softly, "She really is a vulgar woman."

Dr. Cui Fang Yao was also slightly disdainful when he saw the image of Qian's wide-eyed mountain village woman, but he didn't refute it.

Soon, Fan Chen thought of something, and cupped his hands at Dr. Cui again: "Then Fan has congratulated Dr. Cui in advance. With this pill, the antidote to the disease can be found just around the corner."

"Where is it, I have to thank that aunt and the unknown senior who actually made the antidote." Doctor Cui was embarrassed.

Fan Chen smiled but said nothing, the two chatted again, and noticed that Dr. Cui seemed to be looking burnt, so he left knowingly.

After getting out of the tent, he looked at the direction Fang Yao left, and murmured: "The people in this village are lucky."

If Dr. Cui's memorial was really reported to the emperor, according to the weird temperament of the old man in the palace, he would definitely make use of it, and the people in Lijia Village might not be able to please him.

I didn't expect to be broken so quickly by a money-grubbing village woman with short-sightedness. It's really ironic.

　Thank you Bu Luo Xing Yu for your reward!
