"Why are you to blame?" Lin Ling didn't understand why Gu Qingshan said this. Seeing that he was lost in self-confusion, Lin Ling stepped forward and gently held his hand.

"The trend is general."

It's just that these four words seemed to be too simple. She didn't know what to say for a moment, and when she wanted to bring this issue to herself, Gu Qingshan seemed to have anticipated her inner thoughts and spoke first: "I know you are here for the family. Okay, otherwise if you work as a doctor properly, you can still earn enough money for food and clothing."

Before, she wouldn't care about the children at all, Gu Qingshan knew it, so he only blamed himself.

But deep down in his heart, he agreed with the words "the general trend is the general trend", and the emotions on both sides reached their peak, making him unable to control himself.

Seeing the painful look on his face, Lin Ling asked, "How about we do something else to attract attention?"

Gu Qingshan groaned, obviously not reacting. When he saw her looking at him, his ears turned red unconsciously. He explained in a trembling voice: "The vendor should be here soon. The third child doesn't know when he will suddenly come back. The time is too short." , it’s better to forget it, so as not to feel even more uncomfortable.”

"Wait a minute." The more she listened, the weirder Lin Ling felt. Seeing the panic flashing in his innocent eyes, she understood: "I'll go get busy."

The two of them went out, their faces a little strangely red.

Just as Mrs. Yu came over, Gu Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she didn't come here blindly.

"Do you want to carry the cloth to the carriage first?"

"Put the rice in when it comes later, so as not to crush the cloth." Lin Ling kept walking: "I'll go to Dr. Meng's place and come back later."

Doctor Meng?

Mrs. Yu's breath was stagnant, and her feet moved before her brain: "Wait a minute, I'll go with you."

Gu Qingshan watched the two disappear at the door, then walked to the right to go to the stables to take a look at the horses first.

Later in the evening, the two arrived at the medicine hall.

Seeing that Dr. Meng was busy, and after making eye contact as a greeting, Lin Ling went to the medicine cabinet, looked at the bottles and jars on the table, and squinted to see what they were.

She wants to make pills, but she doesn't yet know what would be more likely to sell well.

"Qingxuan Pills, Huazhi Pills, Liuhe Dingzhong Pills."

The "Liuhe Dingzhong Pill" in the pile of bottles is a large porcelain bottle, and the quantity is at least three times that of the others.

It seems to be a good seller for clearing away heat and relieving summer heat.

Lin Ling silently wrote it down.

Mrs. Yu followed her, but she couldn't help but move her eyes towards Dr. Meng. When she talked and laughed with the patient, although she only looked at him from the side, her every move was extremely gentle and considerate, and she couldn't move her eyes away.

The medicine boy was cleaning the table, but he was looking at the two of them. Seeing that Mrs. Yu wanted to stick to Dr. Meng's eyes, she said, "Daydreaming."

Madam Yu immediately came to her senses and lowered her head, wishing she could bury her head in the cracks of the ground.

Ever since Lin Ling met Mrs. Yu, she had always been gentle, intellectual and generous. When had she ever behaved like a little daughter? He immediately understood what was going on, and he approached her with a smile and asked, "Do you like it?"

"It's useless to like him." The medicine boy was closest to the two of them and could hear him. He rolled his eyes and said, "The number of people who like my Doctor Meng ranges from eighteen to forty years old. Doctor Meng doesn't like any of them. Why do I like you?"

This is no exaggeration.

Otherwise Mrs. Yu would not be moved.

"You can't hang yourself on a tree, let's look for it again." Lin Ling could only comfort her, raised his hand and patted her shoulder. Otherwise, he could only say: "I will introduce it to you later."

Mrs. Yu's face was already red, but she was not ashamed. She said calmly: "Brother, I'm overthinking. I just admire Doctor Meng, that's all." The medicine boy heard the words coming to his lips when he heard Doctor Meng cough lightly. Swallow it back.

Meng Yun had already written a prescription for the patient. After asking the medicine boy to take the medicine, he motioned to Lin Ling and the others to come into the room to talk.

Mrs. Yu didn't want to go in, but if she didn't go in, she would feel guilty, so she pretended not to care and followed Lin Ling into the house.

There was a round table in the room, and the cabinets on the wall were filled with books.

Lin Ling sat next to her and glanced at a book called "Wandering Miscellaneous Notes". The name was so random, but it could be placed in various records. There must be something special about it, which aroused her curiosity.

"Can I take a look?"

Meng Yun nodded, turned around, took the book and handed it to her.

After opening the first page, Lin Ling curled her lips in frustration. After flipping through a few more pages, she was sure that this was written by a person who wrote about what he saw and heard, ghost stories, and to coax a little baby.

"On weekdays, patients read this to pass the time." Meng Yun chuckled, got up, opened a wooden box, picked through it, and brought a book over.

Lin Ling reached out to pick it up. It was marked with the word "Wulu". She opened it and saw that the preparation methods and effects of various pills were recorded. Wasn't this just what she needed?

"Take it back and look at it, and give it back to me next time you come here." Meng Yun took a sip of tea and hid the smile on his lips.

"Then you're welcome. Thank you very much." Lin Ling held it in her arms and then asked, "How is the woman?"

"I tied her up."

Meng Yun's smile suddenly turned solemn, and he took the two of them to the next door while explaining: "She has been clamoring to die since she woke up and found out that the child was gone. No matter how hard she tried to persuade her, I had no choice but to tie her up."

Before entering the room, the woman heard Meng Yun's voice. She could no longer shed tears, and her throat injured by the smoke could only make a harsh and sharp voice: "Let me die, please, like this It’s better to be dead than alive.”

Meng Yun opened the door curtain but did not put it down.

Lin Ling was just stunned for a moment before getting in, and saw the mummy-wrapped woman on the bed.

She had burns and blisters all over her body, and medicine had been applied on them. The most serious ones were her hands and feet, which were burned until the flesh was half-cooked. It was not because someone poured water on them to soothe them, so they had to be amputated.

"Let me die, please!" The woman struggled again, her dark eyes covered with tears.

"Why don't you shut your mouth? What if you bite your tongue and commit suicide?" Lin Ling asked.

Meng Yun's pupils were trembling, how could she remind the woman? As expected, the woman bit her tongue in the next moment. He quickly reached out his hand, but was pulled back by Lin Ling.

The woman had tried her best, but when the pain on her tongue amplified and her mouth was filled with the smell of blood, she suddenly stopped and tears fell down.

She thought she really wanted to die, but when she was really facing death, she couldn't help but take back her strength.

"Open your mouth and I'll help you stop the bleeding." Meng Yun had already gone to get the medicine box, sprinkled the medicine on the woman, and then turned around and walked out.

Lin Ling and Madam Yu followed.

"This method is too extreme." Meng Yun sighed lightly.

"I know that her injuries are too serious. If she doesn't have the will to live, she will choose to die even if she is saved. It's better to make a decision in advance."

Since he couldn't really die, then the woman could be obedient and treat her illness. Lin Ling sighed, at least the woman didn't really die: "I'll leave first."
