70: The Soldier King's Supernatural Wife, Three Babies in One Child

Lu Chaoyan gave a hint of sneer. Every time the original owner's siblings and Liu Zhibai went out for night consultations, the patient's family would cook a fried egg for them.

But Liu Zhibai didn't let them eat it, saying that his children had no shortage of eggs, and asked the patient's family to save the eggs for the patient.

The patients' families will be grateful to Liu Zhibai and respect him even more.

The child who came with him carried a medicine box and walked with him all night, but he was so hungry that he had to drink cold water when he got home to fill his stomach.

"Oh no, it's bad. The eggs in my mother's room are gone, and the money box is gone too. Only my second brother's little notebook is left."

Si Yumei ran out of Jiang Xiuqin's bedroom, crying with anxiety.

Si Zhengyang and Si Zhengsong looked at each other and ran into the house.

All the money and bills that Si Zhengyan sent back over the years were locked in the mahogany box in my mother's hand.

If they were gone, how would they live in the future?

The three siblings searched Jiang Xiuqin's room, but they didn't see the wooden box on the beam, nor did they find anything valuable.

The three of them discussed in low voices, but still had no idea where the things had gone.

I can only wait for Jiang Xiuqin to wake up.

After coming out, Si Zhengyang looked at Liu Zhibai with a bit of flattery.

"Doctor Liu, the eggs are gone. Can I pay you after my mother wakes up?"

When Liu Zhibai heard this, his face suddenly turned cold and he quickly put away the silver needle.

"Your mother has taken too many medicines. My silver needles can only remove part of the poison. If you want her to wake up completely, she will need to take medicine for three months. The consultation fee is three yuan. You should prepare one hundred yuan for the medicine for the next three months."

In fact, if she were to receive seven more acupuncture treatments to expel all the remaining toxins from Mrs. Jiang, she would be able to wake up.

After that, take some tonic medicine and regulate your body, and you'll be fine.

But that way, he didn't make much.

How could he not ask for more when the Si family is not short of money?

Of course, he had other selfish motives.

Over the years, he worked hard to raise Tao Yuwei to be as beautiful as Gu Suyi when she was young, and he would never let anyone else seduce her away.

Now that Jiang Xiuqin can't wake up, he wants to see if Tao Yuwei, who was pampered by him, dares to come to the Si family to serve?

Lu Chaoyan is also a top doctor. When he saw Jiang Xiuqin's red skin, covered with sweat, gradually returned to normal color and her rapidly beating heart calmed down.

She couldn't help but sigh that Liu Zhibai was quite capable.

She wasted the whole night.

At this moment, seeing him withdraw the needle, Jiang Xiuqin's sweat stopped suddenly.

She also secretly admired Liu Zhibai's "medical ethics".

If you don’t have money, he really won’t treat you.

This was exactly what she wanted. If Jiang Xiuqin could really wake up after three months, she wouldn't mind giving her the medicine again.

"One hundred yuan? That's so much," Si Zhengyang exclaimed in surprise, "My mother can't wake up, and we don't know where she hid the money. Can we buy it on credit first?"

In fact, he had saved some money by making and selling jam with Tao Yuwei over the past month.

But the money was his own and he didn't want to take it out.

"Okay, I'll give you seven days' worth of medicine on credit. Come on, follow me to get the medicine."

Liu Zhibai looked gentle again. He put away the silver needle, tucked it under his armpit, glanced at Lu Chaoyan, and motioned to leave.

Lu Chaoyan carried the unopened medicine box on her back and deliberately looked towards the backyard.

"It's the middle of the night, and I haven't received any consultation fees or had a sip of tea. I don't even have the energy to walk anymore. You might as well catch the three old hens in the backyard and let us pay off the debt."

Her words touched Liu Zhibai's heart. Tao Yuwei had a bruised face, so catching the chicken back was just the right way to heal her.

He deliberately kept silent, neither opposing nor agreeing.

People within a hundred miles all understand Liu Zhibai's character.

Since the passing of Dr. Lu, Liu Zhibai has adjusted the consultation fees and medicine prices again and again.

In the past, Dr. Lu could cure a disease with three bowls of medicine, but Liu Zhibai asked people to drink seven bowls, earning the extra money of four bowls.

Although there are other doctors, none of them is as good as Liu Zhibai.

Especially some chronic diseases, difficult and complicated diseases, and infectious diseases may not be cured even if you go to the hospital.

With Liu Zhibai's treatment, a prick of the skin with a silver needle and a few bowls of herbal soup prepared by him can basically cure the disease.

Si Zhengsong and Si Zhengyang exchanged glances, and then said to Yang Xing'er, "Go and catch three hens for the medicine."

"Okay." Yang Xing'er was reluctant and didn't dare to say anything.

Si Yumei, who was helping Jiang Xiuqin put clothes on, did not dare to refute.

She was afraid that Liu Zhibai would not prescribe good medicine for her mother.

Fortunately, her mother still has more than a thousand yuan, so when the person wakes up, her family will have money.

Yang Xing'er quickly caught the chickens and put them in the cage. There were three old hens weighing almost twenty kilograms.

She handed the chicken to Lu Chaoyan with a look of heartache, but Lu Chaoyan didn't take it. Instead, she looked at Si Zhengyang coldly, "Aren't you going to my house to get the medicine? You carry it."

Si Zhengyang gritted his teeth and wanted to swear, but when he thought of the beating he received last night, he endured it.

He took the chicken coop, opened the door, and raised his hand to Liu Zhibai, "Doctor Liu, please."

Liu Zhibai nodded slightly, took the silver needle bag and went out.

Outside the door, the few idlers dispersed when they saw there was nothing to watch.

After returning to the Lu family, Liu Zhibai prepared medicine for Si Zhengyang and then mentioned the matter of money to Lu Chaoyan.

"I'll save the three hundred dollars for you, and I'll give it to you when you get married."

"Haha, even a three-year-old wouldn't believe this nonsense."

After Lu Chaoyan finished speaking, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared, and her eyes were filled with a piercing coldness.

She opened the silver needle bag that Liu Zhibai had not put away yet, took out a few silver needles, and pierced into several acupuncture points on his face, quickly and accurately.

"Liu Zhibai, aren't you curious about why Si Zhengyan and I both took the medicine and we are fine?"

Looking at her actions, Liu Zhibai was so scared that he sat on the chair and didn't react for a long time.

Suddenly, the image of Lu Chaoyan as a child appeared in my mind.

Among his three daughters, the eldest is calm and steady, but she lacks the talent to study medicine.

The second child was just like her mother, weak and timid. She did not like medicine and only preferred needlework, which was popular among girls.

Only the third child, who had been smart and clever since childhood, was often praised by the old man, who said that she had the Lu family's talent for learning medicine.

It’s just a pity that the old man died early. Lu Chaoyan was only seven or eight years old at that time and didn’t learn anything at all.

Now it seems that she not only knows acupuncture, but her techniques are more sophisticated than his. Could it be that she has been secretly studying medicine all these years?

But I didn't teach her, and Lu Xiang couldn't even take a pulse, let alone teach her.

So who did she learn medicine from?

Lu Chaoyan continued to insert the silver needle into Liu Zhibai's body. Even through the clothes, she could accurately pierce the acupuncture points on his body.

"How's my acupuncture technique? Is it okay?"

Liu Zhibai stared at her blankly, "You, who did you learn acupuncture from?"

Lu Chaoyan smiled, but it didn't reach her eyes. "Where do you think I can learn such good acupuncture?"

When Liu Zhibai heard this, he was filled with surprise and doubt.

In this area, apart from Liu Zhibai, there is no other doctor who has such good acupuncture skills.

She couldn't have learned it from an old guy when she was a child.

Could it be...?

Liu Zhibai was filled with surprise. Could it be that the old man gave the golden needles and medical records to this dead girl before he died?

Lu Chaoyan naturally guessed what he was thinking.

I deliberately gave him this illusion just to test whether he really didn't find the seventy-two golden needles and the medical book, or was just greedy and didn't tell me.

She stood up and walked slowly towards the back door of the clinic. "Don't worry about the money, and don't ask Lu Xiang for it. Otherwise, my needle won't be so kind next time."

Hearing her threatening words, Liu Zhibai raised his clenched fist and slammed it hard on the table.

She hid it deeply enough.

Even though he had frightened her so much at the time, she still insisted that she knew nothing and had never seen the golden needles or medical records.

I didn't expect that she was secretly studying on her own.

Well, it turns out that the bite of a dog that doesn’t bark hurts the most.

Unfortunately, I am still a little too young to fight with an old man like him.

If she didn't hand over the medical record and the golden needles, he would destroy Lu Xiang.

After leaving, Lu Chaoyan sent the three chickens to the backyard and settled them there before returning to her room to sleep.

The next day, Lu Xiang did not call her to go to work.

She slept until dawn. Just as she was about to get up, she heard two cheerful conversations in the yard. She scratched her ears in disgust.

"Zhibai, when you were in school, you were the most diligent student in our class. Everyone privately said that you would achieve great success in the future."

"What a wonderful time, we can't go back."

"Yes, at that time I was afraid of what others would say, and I didn't dare to..."

The gentle and soft voice suddenly stopped.

Her master looked at Lu Chaoyan under the eaves in horror, "Why didn't you go to work?"

She is Liu Zhibai's white moonlight Gu Suyi, who has a petite figure, fair skin and delicate facial features.

She has long black hair, tied up with a plum blossom-shaped wooden hairpin.

She was wearing a high-waisted long dress with a white background and blue and emerald flowers, which was elegant and gentle.

She came out of the kitchen with a plate of omelets in her hands, her shy smile frozen on her face, but it did not affect her beauty.

Liu Zhibai, who was sitting at a square table in the middle of the yard, turned around suddenly and was also very surprised.

"Why are you still in the house?"

Lu Chaoyan raised her hand to cover her mouth and yawned.

It is not until the end of the book that it is revealed that Gu Suyi is Liu Zhibai's white moonlight.

At this time, although there were some gossips from outsiders, no one knew that they had an affair before marriage.

"This is my home, why can't I be in the house?"

Lu Chaoyan sat opposite Liu Zhibai and looked at Gu Suyi, "Daughter-in-law Okura, go get me some water to wash my face."

"How dare you! How dare you talk to your aunt like that?" Liu Zhibai slammed the table hard.

Lu Chaoyan looked innocent, "Auntie? Where did this auntie come from?"

She pointed at Gu Suyi who was standing beside her and said, "You are talking about her. Isn't she our pet? Is it unfair for her to make water for me, her master, to wash her face?"

Anger flashed across Gu Suyi's eyes, and then tears filled her eyes in an instant, making her look pitiful.

She placed the plate in front of Liu Zhibai and choked up, "Chao Yan, everyone is equal now. You can say those mean words in the house, but don't say them outside. If someone with ulterior motives hears them, your parents will suffer as well."

"Everyone is equal? ​​Why can't I see that?" Lu Chaoyan glanced at her sneerfully. "Everyone should work in the fields, that's what we call equality. Look at you, your hands are as soft as tofu, a typical capitalist. You're hiding in my house to seduce men. If outsiders knew about this, Liu Zhibai would be in big trouble."

Liu Zhibai felt like his lungs were about to explode, and he slammed the table and yelled again, "Lu Chaoyan, shut up! Why are you going to work instead of going crazy at home?"
