Chapter 446 Uncaria 2
Jiang Changgong smiled awkwardly, "That's right, I just came out of his room."

"What? We didn't have a good conversation?" He Tiantian asked while drinking a cup of tea.

Jiang Changgong watched Hong Lu go out, and then he sighed heavily, "Tiantian, something serious has happened! Jiang Yin and the others really have no good intentions, and even asked your father-in-law to take a concubine!"

He Tiantian spit out the tea he just drank, "What?! Take a concubine?!"

"Isn't it..." Jiang Changgong put on a bitter face, and repeated Jiang Shi's words. Naturally, he concealed the parts that were difficult to say, "I think that Jiang Yin is really unacceptable!"

He Tiantian frowned and thought hard, "I asked him to be a witness at the time, and he had to ask for something in return. I couldn't just watch him squatting in Jiang's house and eat the mountain, and just treat it as a money to buy him to be a witness. Anyway, he didn't even have 100 taels. Hua. But tell me, why is my father so confused that he would come up with such an idea?"

Jiang Changgong hesitated to speak.

Although they are both adults, he still can't say what those men and women said.

He Tiantian sighed, "Well, I've been very busy recently, and I may have to go out, so I can only tell the cashier first, and ask them not to pay my father any money. If there is no money, he will put this matter aside."

Jiang Changgong nodded.

While the two were talking, many words of uncaria were delivered.

There is no need for a doctor to come over to look at it. He Tiantian feels that something is wrong when he looks at it himself.

Although the medicinal materials have to be processed, but this Uncaria is almost processed into pieces, it always feels weird.

Seeing that He Tiantian frowned and said nothing, he asked in many words: "What? Is there something wrong with this Uncaria?"

He Tiantian shook his head, "Let the doctor take a look, I don't know much about medicinal materials."

"Then I'll wait. I'm really curious, why the uncarved vines in Huichun Hall are sold so cheaply."

Not only were many people curious about this matter, even Jiang Changgong was very curious about it, so everyone waited for the doctor to come.

After a while, Hong Lu led the sitting doctor Jia Fang into the door.

He Tiantian handed him the bag of Uncaria vines. Jia Fang looked at it, smelled it, tasted it, and then shook his head, "Ma'am, where did this medicine dregs come from?"

Duo Yan was the first to widen his eyes, "What?! Medicine dregs?"

Jia Fang chuckled, "It's an exaggeration to say that the medicine dregs is an exaggeration, but it's true that it doesn't have much effect. Among them are ivy with little medicinal effect, mixed with ordinary flower vines, at most it can clear away heat and detoxify slightly, far from Uncaria's blood-activating effect!"

He Tiantian looked at each other in many words.

Many words immediately got up angrily, "This time, Chuntang! How dare you lie and deceive people!"

Hong Lu curled her lips, "I told you not to go to Huichuntang, you deserve to be cheated!"

Many words rolled her eyes, "Didn't I see Mrs. Jiang was in a hurry and couldn't buy it?"

Hong Lu curled her lips and stopped talking, but after a while, she suddenly looked at He Tiantian with a gloomy face, "Ma'am, there is something I haven't said all this time."

"Tell me."

"I heard from the peddler Xu Aji that Huichuntang's medicines are much cheaper than ours. At that time, I felt something was wrong. Now that I think about it, it's because they used fake medicines, right?"

He Tiantian was very anxious because he couldn't buy Uncaria vine, and she was even more annoyed when he bought a bunch of fake medicines after many talks, so she stood up suddenly and said, "Tell me in detail!"

Hong Lu then told about the fact that Xu Ajiniang had been taking medicine in Huichuntang, and said that Xu Aji's mother seemed to be taking medicine in Huichuntang all year round.

Calculated in this way, people really can't afford Nanshantang's medicine.

He Tiantian's face darkened, and he said to Jia Fang: "Sir, please come with me to see what kind of illness Xu Aji's mother has."

Jia Fang agreed and wanted to go with many words, but Jiang Changgong stood up and said, "Then I'll go back first..."

He Tiantian stopped in front of him, "Uncle Chang Gong, I need some manpower, help me go back and organize 100 people..."

"Ma'am!" Hong Lu whispered, with an inexplicable excitement in his voice, "Are you going to smash the Huichun Hall?"

He Tiantian couldn't help laughing, "What are you talking about, I want these people to have other functions."

Jiang Changgong nodded quickly, "Okay! I'll go back to the organization right away!"

Coming out of Jiang Mansion, Hong Lu brought a few people to Xu Aji's house, and saw Xu Aji sitting in the courtyard with his head bowed, boiling medicine, with a sleepy look all over his body.

Hong Lu unconsciously took two quick steps, "I said Xu Aji, what's wrong with you?"

Xu Aji glanced at her lightly, then lowered his head again, "My mother, she is seriously ill..."

"Why is she seriously ill?" An anxious look appeared on Hong Lu's face, "I came last time, didn't she still sit up?"

"I don't know..." Xu Aji's whole body was sluggish, "I've been taking the medicine all the time, and I never took it..."

He Tiantian and Jia Fang looked at each other.

Jia Fang stepped forward consciously and said: "My little brother, I am the doctor of Nanshantang, why don't you let me take a look for Lingtang?"

Xu Aji raised his head and was stunned for a long time before saying: "No, no need..."

Jia Fang turned his head to look at He Tiantian, He Tiantian nodded slightly, and Jia Fang said again: "Brother, I don't charge the consultation fee."

This sentence really hit Xu Aji's heart, a faint wry smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he looked at Hong Lu, "I know you mean well, but the medicine in Nanshantang is really too expensive, the money for a few medicines , enough for us to eat for a year, how can common people afford to eat like this all the year round!"

Just as Hong Lu wanted to get angry, she stomped her feet and said, "You idiot! This is my wife! I asked the doctor to show it to your mother for free. What are you still talking about here?"

The corners of Xu Aji's mouth trembled, then he grinned gradually, and immediately moved to the side and knelt down, wanting to kowtow to He Tiantian, "Thank you Madam..."

He Tiantian hurriedly said: "Don't kneel, hurry up and lead the way, let Dr. Jia have a look."

"Hey! Well, well!" Xu Aji's voice suddenly became much lighter.

In fact, there is no need to lead the way, the Xu family has only two houses, the other is for storing sundries, and only this one lives.

The mother and the son each slept in a bed, and Xu's bed had a mattress, but Xu Aji's was only covered with a thin layer of hay. It seemed that Xu Aji's silver taels had been spent on Xu's medical treatment and medicine.

Several people walked into the room, but Xu Shi still didn't move. If it wasn't for the extremely weak rise and fall of her chest, everyone would have thought she had died.

Jia Fang hurried forward to catch her pulse.

Even after all this trouble, Mrs. Xu still didn't move. She didn't open her eyes, and even whispered: "Aji, is your father back?"

Xu Aji's mood, which had just gotten better, gradually sank a bit, and he could only look at Jia Fang with hope.

Jia Fang straightened up, looked at Xu Aji, then at He Tiantian, and then said in a low voice, "Madam, take a step to speak."
