Chapter 263 Quack Doctor
Shang Ruoyi walked in and said with a smile: "It seems that it is not easy to meet Shopkeeper Xiao!"
"What are you talking about, young master?" She glared at the boy and said, "What are you still standing here for? Why don't you go and make a pot of the new tea I made a few days ago?"
Her eyes fell on Shang Ruoyi and the jade pendant on her waist. That was first-rate warm jade. The jade being auctioned today was not at the same level at all.
"Sir, what business do you want to discuss with me today?"
Shang Ruoyi took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to her.
"pill?"
"good."
Shopkeeper Xiao looked a little embarrassed. "Sir, it's not that I don't want to help you. It's mainly because this pill can be sold everywhere. Our auction house only sells rare items. This pill won't fetch much even if it's auctioned."
"Why would ordinary pills be sent to you?" Shang Ruoyi poured out the pills: "If I say this is a pill that can prolong life and even save lives in times of crisis, what do you think, Shopkeeper Xiao?"
"Prolong life? Bring the dead back to life?" Shopkeeper Xiao's eyes lit up, but the next moment, the light in his eyes dimmed again. There had been some sorcerers in the world who brought elixirs and said they could bring the dead back to life, but they were all liars without exception.
How is it possible in this world to bring the dead back to life?
Shang Ruoyi shook her head: "Resurrection is a bit exaggerated, but it is true that it can prolong life and save lives at critical moments."
"Sir, it's not that Xiaoxiao is unwilling to help you, but you should take the pill back! If you have other items for auction, I would be happy to help." She knew that the panacea was just a gimmick.
Shang Ruoyi smiled when she heard this and said, "Since Manager Xiao is unwilling to cooperate, I will leave first." At this moment, there was a "thump" sound outside the door, and a figure fell to the ground.
"Miss! Miss!" a maid shouted, "Someone come! My Miss has fainted!"
Xiaoxiao hurried out.
It turned out to be the daughter of the Lin family.
In Beiling, the Lin family is an extremely prosperous family, and all the empresses and imperial concubines in every dynasty came from the Lin family.
The young lady who fainted now is the legitimate daughter of the Lin family, and has been pointed out to be the eighth prince's consort.
The eldest daughter of the Lin family has always been weak. If she had a little bit of strength in her body, she would have been married to the prince without any accident.
Although the eighth prince is not favored, he is still a prince after all. If something happens to his wife in this auction house, it will probably not take long for the auction house to close down.
"Call a doctor!"
Just when Shopkeeper Xiao was getting anxious, Shang Ruoyi came forward and said, "I know a little bit about medicine, why don't I take a look at this girl?"
Right now, there seems to be no other choice except her.
"But my daughter is already married. How can we let a man treat her?" The maid of the Lin family said with some embarrassment.
"You make your choice, do you want to see a doctor or not?" Shang Ruoyi said calmly, "Your young lady looks like she has a heart attack. If she can't be treated in time, she may not survive for more than an hour."
what?
How could the maid dare to delay after hearing this?
If something really happened to the young lady, none of them would survive.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, sir."
Shang Ruoyi took out a silver needle. In Beiling, acupuncture was not popular, and many people didn't know what the silver needle was used for.
Everyone was shocked to see her take out such a long needle.
"Oh my god, what is this needle for?"
"Isn't it used to treat illnesses?"
"Using such a long needle to treat illness? Is this a cure or a death sentence?"
The maid saw this and hurriedly stopped her.
"Sir, what are you doing?"
"Acupuncture."
"Acupuncture?" She looked at the thin and long needle with a hint of fear in her eyes: "Our young lady is so precious, how can you use such a cruel method to treat her?"
"Are you going to save your young lady or not?" Shang Ruoyi's eyes showed impatience: "If you stop me again, if something happens to your young lady, don't blame me for not treating her."
When the maid heard this, although there was doubt in her eyes, she still let go of her hand. After all, she had no other choice now.
Shang Ruoyi inserted a few needles on the acupuncture points, and his face, which had been a little purple, slowly returned to normal.
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but exclaimed: "Miracle doctor, it's really a miracle doctor!"
"Yes! After these few injections, her complexion has recovered. You know, this girl from the Lin family was weak, and so many miracle doctors were invited in but couldn't cure her. Now, she has been cured by such a young girl."
"How can it be as easy as you say?" A woman said, "Just because his complexion has recovered doesn't mean that the disease has been cured. Besides, how old is this doctor? It's a bit exaggerated to call him a miracle doctor."
"That's right. It's still unknown whether it can be cured. Let's wait and see!"
Shang Ruoyi took her pulse and found that the Lin girl's heart disease was extremely serious. If it could not be cured completely, even if she was saved this time, she would not live more than a year.
She took out a pill and was about to put it into her mouth when the Lin family's maid stopped her.
"Sir, what is this pill?"
"This is something I made myself. It can cure your girl's heart disease."
When the maid heard that it was prepared by her, she said quickly: "My girl never eats things of unknown origin."
"Unknown origin?" As Shang Ruoyi finished speaking, an old man ran in carrying a medicine box.
"Where's Miss Lin?"
Hearing the old man's voice, the maid's eyes lit up.
"Doctor Liu." The maid stepped forward and said hurriedly, "We've been waiting for you."
Doctor Liu walked up to her and looked at the silver needles on her body, frowning: "Who did this? Isn't this nonsense?" After saying that, he took the silver needles off her hand and threw them aside: "Quack, quack, this is not a treatment, this is simply nonsense!"
When everyone saw what Doctor Liu did and the look he gave Shang Ruoyi, they couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.
"Look! What did I say? How could she know medicine when she is so young?"
"She's a miracle doctor. In my opinion, she's just a charlatan."
"That silver needle looks scary. Tsk tsk tsk tsk, I really can't imagine how painful it would be to be pricked by that silver needle."
Upon hearing this, the maid angrily walked up to Shang Ruoyi and said, "Sir, do you think that our Lin family is easy to bully? How dare you hurt my daughter? Do you know who our Lin family is in Beiling? My daughter is the eighth prince's consort appointed by the emperor. If my daughter is fine, it's fine. If there is any accident, your life will not be enough to compensate."
"You!" Ah Cheng frowned, put his hand on the hilt of the knife at his side, and was about to step forward. Shang Ruoyi waved her hand lightly with a sneer on her face: "How do you know there is something wrong with my treatment?"
