<h4>Chapter 80</h4>
Sometimes, tears could be deceived, but when the stubborn young
maid ran forward with a few taels of silver in her hands, her tears would not be deceiving her.
An Zeng lowered his head to look
at the silver notes in his hand, then turned around and walked to the pawnshop counter and asked, “”Did the people who came
earliere often?””
The person from the pawnshop replied, “”She doesn’te very often, but she hase five or six times
already … I know that she’s from Lord Li’s house, but I still have to pretend that I don’t know her to prevent her from being
embarrassed.””
There were two pawnshops on the street where Sir Li’s house was located. The reason she didn’t go there was because
she was afraid of embarrassing Sir Li.
Madam had always been a frugal person. If there wasn’t something troubling her, how could
she possibly treat all of her jewelry like that?
“”Therefore, every time I set a price, it will always be the original price.””
He
looked at the hairpin in his hand and said, “”This hairpin must have been there for at least twenty years. Its workmanship and
materials aren’t considered good, so I guessed that it should be the jewelry his wife brought with her when she married Lord Li
… It’s difficult for her.””
An Zhan said, “”I’ll have to trouble you to give me all of the things that the Li family is in
exchange for redemption.””
That person quickly called for the waiter to fetch it, “”I don’t dare to sell the things from the Li
family. Even though I’ve received them, I’ll treat it as a loss. If I sell them, my conscience will be disturbed.
Logically
speaking, if we were pawnshops, we wouldn’t have been able to keep it to ourselves.
But the matter with the Li family … I can’t
earn this money.
It was said that thete emperor had known of the hardships Sir Li had been living, so he had been deliberately
transferred to the Department Head’s Department for Purging Officials. Everyone had said that thete king was taking care of
him.
But his character is the same everywhere he goes. “”
An Chao nodded. After packing up the items, he gave a bit more in
proportion to the amount of money he earned from the pawnshop. Then, he turned around and left.
On the main street, he met that
man who had gone to the Li family to ask for money. In his hand was the shattered silver that the young maid had exchanged with
the pawnshop.
The doctor sighed as he walked. After taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and raised his hand to p himself.
“”Fuck, how could I want this money!””
He turned around and walked back to the Li family’s residence to knock on the door, then he
passed the silver to Old Zheng, “”Look, I remember wrongly. A few days ago, Lord Li sent people to return the silver. It was my
brain that forgot about it in the blink of an eye. me me.””
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Old Zheng stood there
nkly, staring at the back of the man.
An Zeng intercepted the doctor on the way and dragged him into a teahouse.
“”May I ask who
you are?””
The doctor asked cautiously.
An Xin ordered a pot of tea, then sat down and said, “”I am someone that Sir Li has helped
before. Right now, I live a wealthy life, so I want to repay Sir Li. But you also know that Sir Li’s personality is absolutely
uneptable.””
The doctor let out a long sigh, “”So Lord Li is actually the Fang family’s leader. ording to the rules, he
should have been promoted to the Fang family’s Prefect, but the current Prefect, Lord Xu … Forget it, there’s no way to exin
this matter.””
When Lord Li was in the Fang family mansion, he did a lot of things for our people, and everyone respected him in
their hearts.
“”But this person, he’s too scheming … Even if he doesn’t think for himself, he should at least think for his
family.””
An Xin handed over twenty taels of silver to the doctor and said, “”You can keep this. It won’t be easy for you.””
“”Right … What’s wrong with the Li family’s young master?””
Speaking of this, the groom felt even more sad, “”The heavens are
blind. The Second Young Master of the Li family is such a good child. He is clever, sensible, and beautiful.””
However, due to her
weak constitution, she would always fall ill during the new season, and she would spend a lot of money on medicine every day.
“”It’s a pity that I’m useless as well. I can’t cure this illness due to my poor innate constitution.””
“”Well... can you do me a
favor?””
I also know how to use my medical skills. Just say that I’m a friend of yours and take me to the Li Residence for Second
Young Master to see.
“”It would be best if it could be cured, but if it can’t, I will do my best.””
The doctor nodded after a
moment of silence. “”The second young masteres to my shop three times every month. It just so happens that he wille the
day after tomorrow.””
If I take you into the mansion, I won’t be able to find an excuse.
“”Like this, the day after tomorrow you
wille to my medicine store and wait, pretending that you have met me at the right time. Whether you can help or not, it will
all be up to you.””
Ang nodded and said thank you, then said his goodbyes.
When the day came, An Zhe and Qu Liuxi left the sect and
went straight to the medicine store to wait.
The doctor had said that Li Yenian’s wife was a person who cared about her husband’s
honor, so she never brought Second Young Master to see a doctor when there were many people. She always came early in the
morning.
Thus, An Zeng and Qu Liuxi arrived outside the medicine store before daybreak. Lang Zhong also needed two hours to open
the door to wait for the people from the Li family.
The sky hadn’t even lit up yet, when An Zhe and Qu Liuxi entered and waited.
After waiting for a few minutes, a woman in her forties and a maid, who had seen An Ying in the past, came in with a seven or
eight year old boy.
The little boy’s face was very pale, but his features were delicate and pretty.
However, his body was too weak,
so his pace was not stable.
The doctor quickly stood up. “”Greetings, Madam.””
The middle-aged woman was none other than Li
Yenian’s wife.
She didn’t look very old, but the frown between her eyebrows was too heavy.
He was wearing a set of clothes, and
there were even patches on some of them.
People on the street said that the madam lived in seclusion, but in reality, she was
unwilling to change her clothes. Her clothes were too shabby to leave the house, lest she lose her husband’s face.
“”Who are these
two people?””
When Madame Li saw An Chou and Qu Liuxi, she was stunned for a moment, then felt a little uneasy.
She really didn’t
want to see anyone with her current appearance.
“”This is my Junior Martial Uncle.””
The doctor couldn’t find an excuse, so he
could only casually say, “”Although he’s young, he’s a closed door disciple who has extraordinary medical skills.””
“”He just
happened to pass by here. When he heard about Second Young Master’s matter, he specially stayed to treat Second Young Master.””
An
Chou stepped forward and sped his fists. “”Greetings, Madam.””
The young maid looked at An Zhe. “”Ah … why is it you?””
An Xuan
said, “”I was too rude the day before yesterday, please forgive me.””
The young serving maid whispered something in Madame Li’s
ear, causing her expression to be more and more unsightly.
It was not that she was hostile to the struggle for peace, but that
her embarrassment was known to others and she felt sorry for her husband.
An Zeng did not say anything else as he held the boy’s
hand and came over.
The boy was obviously afraid, but he did not resist.
Qu Liuxi squatted in front of the little boy and said with
a smile, “”Don’t be afraid, this big sister will take your pulse, okay?””
The boy nodded and held out his hand.
Qu Liuxi carefully
examined her pulse, then let out a long sigh. “”It’s not that difficult. It’s just that when I was born, I suffered from a cold
feeling. The cold and moisture in my body were too heavy for any ordinary medicine to prate that deep.””
“”If I don’t live
long, I won’t be able to recover for a day.””
“”How long will it take?””
Qu Liuxi replied seriously, “”Two days.””
Even the doctor
was stunned for a moment.
The doctor looked at Qu Liuxi and said in a tone that didn’t dare to question, “”I’m not a genius in the
medical field, but I’ve studied hard for decades.””
“”Second Young Master is indeed too wet and cold. Ordinary medicine can’t be
cured, but he’s not only cold and wet …””
Qu Liuxi replied, “”I know. I didn’t say it just now because I thought Madam and the
others didn’t know.””
The Second Young Master was indeed not only cold and wet, his body also had a disease that waspletely
opposite to the cold and damp … It was in the Qi Sea of his Dantian, where the fire energy was too strong, and his physique was
cold and moist, and there was a constant flow of internal fire, causing his body to constantly suppress each other …
The doctor’s
expression changed. “”Good … Your eyesight, your skill. You’ve already seen through so many illnesses just by checking your
pulse.””
Madam Li, who thought that Qu Liuxi was too young to trust her, had her eyes lit up.
She quickly took a few steps forward
and grabbed Qu Liuxi’s hand. “”Miss, may I ask if you can really cure Wei’er?””
Li Yenian’s second son was named Li Pingwei, and
his first name was Vishnu.
Qu Liuxi pulled Madam Li to the side and asked in a low voice, “”Your noble young master’s talent is
extraordinary, why did you use medicine to suppress his talent and not let him cultivate?””
That man’s words were indiscernible,
but it was because he did not know the way of cultivation.
Madam Li’s face paled. “”He … Father, he is not allowed to
cultivate?””
Qu Liuxi was slightly angry. “”So you want to kill him?””
Madame Li was stunned. “”You mean?””
Qu Liuxi said seriously,
“”Your noble young master is born with a fire constitution. If you can’t use cultivation to vent your fire qi, sooner orter
you will die from fire attacking your heart.””
All these years, you have been using cold and wet methods to suppress it. On the
surface, it seems like you have suppressed your internal mes, but in reality, you have suffered great damage.
“”I can only say
this much. If you still want to protect your young master’s life, you better listen to me. I can remove his cold and moisture,
but I cannot remove his internal fire. If he wants to live, he must cultivate.””
Lady Li said miserably, “”Wei’er’s brother’s
cultivation went berserk while cultivating. He’s still paralyzed on the bed …””
Qu Liuxi replied, “”Xingwei Street, Heavenly
Enlightenment Sect, send the eldest young master over. I will treat him.””
If one’s cultivation went berserk, it wouldn’t matter
even if one’s meridians were messed up. A Returning Essence Pill would be able to straighten out one’s bloodline.
“”Second Young
Master, you must return with me now. Give me two days, I will remove the cold and damp energy.””
Madam Li was about to kneel down,
but Qu Liuxi held her back. “”Doctor, saving a person’s life is your responsibility. I don’t need your medical fees. Since I’ve
met you, it’s fate.””
After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Li Pingwei. “”Why don’t you go back with your sister to
treat your illness?””
As she said so, the young girl’s calm confidence gave her a sense of elegance.
Madam Li thanked him profusely
and followed An Zhe back to the Heavenly Avenge Sect.
Qu Liuxi took Li Pingwei to cure his illness, and when he had nothing better
to do, he went to find Du.
At this time, the sky had just begun to brighten and Du was still thin and weak.
An Zhan heard from
several big men thatst night, when Du was skinny and wrestled with them, whoever won would drink a pot of wine.
In the end, he
won seven rounds in a row and was so drunk that he couldn’t even walk stably.
An Zaixin said that this scum could onlypete in
wrestling with people who couldn’t cultivate, and he even won a round of drinking …
Anjou pushed open Du’s thin door and Du
sprawled on the bed, fast asleep.
An Zeng looked at the messy room and couldn’t help but sigh. He packed up his things and then
used cold water to wash a towel. He then quietly walked to Du’s side … He stuffed the towel into his thin pants.
The thin Dean
suddenly woke up. He red at Anjou and pulled the towel out from his crotch … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …
… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …
… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …
An Xuan looked at the ground, then asked with a smile, “”What kind of dream
did you havest night?””
“”Let me guess. I guess you must have dreamed of eating an applest night.””
“”How did you know?””
An
Zeng picked up a potato that looked like an apple core from the ground and ced it beside Du. After a nce, Du’s face turned
red. “”This … is rather awkward.””
“”Get up quickly ande with me.””
