Raiders of the Duke and Duchess
Chapter 705 Not worth it
Shen Luoxin was stunned. For some reason, she didn't nod or speak. She just stood there, with the hand hanging by her side tightened.
She has never felt that this status is not good, and she still feels the same now. However, she knew that once she nodded, the words she had said before would no longer be convincing.
However, silence is sometimes an answer.
"Is it really from Xu Si's mother's family? That widow?"
"No, I thought it looked familiar before, as if I've seen it somewhere... Put it this way, it's true that I've seen it before."
"Oh... bad luck!"
The word "仵作" seems to most people to be a reason enough to completely deny a person.
She wanted to help them, but they used this reason to refuse to be helped - it seemed that being helped by a widow was a very shameful and even "unlucky" thing.
But the man suddenly laughed, cheerfully, and shouted as if he had picked up a big bargain, "Who am I talking about? It turns out that it is an old man who makes a living, no wonder he can do this Such a shameful thing happened! You guys can see clearly now. She bought a good prescription from me, but then she bit me back and said that the prescription was fake and that she knew medical skills... a What kind of medical skills do you know, little bastard? That’s so funny!”
The waiter at the counter was about to step forward to complain, but he was hit on the head by a brainiac. The shopkeeper behind him scolded in a low voice with a tigerish expression, "Is your brain broken? What I said before were in vain, right? They have finished eating. I just patted my butt and left. I can give you more scraps of silver as a token of gratitude for your help. But after that, this rogue comes to the door every day and makes trouble. Can we still do business?"
Just as the waiter was about to retort, the shopkeeper slapped him on the forehead again, not hard, but not light either, "Why don't you go to work? Who can buy Zhang Fangzi without even frowning for ten taels of silver?" Do you need your sympathy and pity?"
The waiter sighed softly, then looked in the direction of Shen Luoxin, and finally put his foot back - he needed this job.
The guests were also whispering among themselves, "Yes, I thought it was some family member of the head of the hospital, but I misunderstood... Then she said that she knows some medical skills, and there is no way she can do it."
"I heard that Xu Siniang's autopsy found out what kind of epidemic this time is, maybe..." the lingering voice lingered, and there was a hint in the words.
Naturally, some people understand and ask, "Is this true?"
"Of course it's true. My neighbor's uncle's son works at Dali Temple, and now the young couple are in jail! I also heard that not only the officials of Dali Temple, but also the entire You family were also imprisoned. It’s closed, you can get in, but you can’t get out!”
"Even my wife is locked up?"
"No! I heard that those errands, no matter how many people are in your family, whether they are old or young, or even those who are holding them in their arms and waiting to be fed, all went in! But I think it is necessary to come, otherwise we would not dare to go out. Yo!” It is time to drag the whole family in...” Someone nodded to himself and murmured; as he spoke, he suddenly raised his head to look at Shen Luoxin. His eyes immediately changed and he took a step back. If facing a formidable enemy, "Then how could she——"
Before he finished speaking, the meaning was unknown to everyone, and they all avoided him. Not long after, the crowd around Ji Wuyan's table suddenly retreated. In the crowded room, only the four people involved, the man who sold his wife, looked at Shen Luoxin. His eyes became evasive and timid. After a while, he rolled his eyes, then took a step forward, snatched the prescription from Shen Luoxin's hand with a swish, turned his head and raised the prescription in his hand to everyone, " Everyone, everyone...please listen and say a few words! This is an epidemic. Although the court is hiding it, not letting us talk about it, not letting us talk about it, not letting us rob medicinal materials, just, how do you say that word? What? Taiping...oh, that’s not important! What’s important is, look, which drug store doesn’t raise drug prices now?”
Ji Wuyan looked at him as if he was singing an opera, and then looked at Shen Luoxin who had his head lowered and remained silent the whole time. Shen Luoxin at this moment, and Shen Luoxin just now, who was bathing in the sun and holding the prescription in high spirits, seemed to be two completely different people. She didn't seem to notice that the prescription in her hand was snatched.
She stood with backlight, looking lonely, and her shadow was stretched long in the room.
The theatergoers are watching the opera, and the opera singers are still singing, "Everyone, this thing doesn't have eyes. It won't stay away from you just because you accumulate virtue and do good deeds, eat fasting and chant Buddha's name. You may not know when to eat in the same room with certain people." After drinking tea, eating, or even just saying a few words, I was infected with this stupid thing..." After saying that, he looked back at Shen Luoxin, and then continued to wave his hand with the Chinese medicine prescription, "Everyone, at this time, you All we need is a prescription, a prescription that will cure the disease... Let’s start with the ugly talk, there is only one prescription, and the one with the highest price will get it! How about it?”
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing who raised the head, "Okay! I agree!"
With the first one, there was the second one, and all of them raised their hands in agreement, "Agree! I agree! Today is also unlucky. I met a coward, and I might be infected later. Fortunately, I have this prescription!" "
Shen Luoxin, who had his head down all the time, suddenly looked up for some reason. Her eyes were trembling as she looked at that place. She clenched her fists for a long time and finally exclaimed, "That prescription is fake! Don't be fooled!" Due to the exertion, all the sounds came out of her throat, Dull, hoarse.
But no one appreciated it, pointing at Shen Luoxin and scolding, "You said it was fake, so it was fake?! Why should we believe you? Why weren't you imprisoned in Dali Temple? Where are the people from the government? Go and report it quickly official!"
"That's right! How can you be so bad, you little bastard? You just want to take this prescription privately! You have such a cruel heart!"
"Excuse me!"
No one in the room wanted to believe Shen Luoxin.
Perhaps, they had doubted the authenticity of this prescription. Perhaps, those who encouraged and agreed to sell the prescription would not even be able to come up with ten taels of silver, let alone the one who paid the highest price. But they still stand here, listening to what they want to hear, believing what they want to believe, and fanning the flames in order to prevent chaos in the world. They turned all their viciousness into the blade of words and headed towards an innocent and weak woman.
Even though this weak woman has been running around and working hard for this city in the past few days.
Ji Wuyan pursed his lips and asked Ziqiu to pull him to sit down, then stood up and stood in front of the two of them.
She was not worth it for Shen Luoxin.
