Chapter 125 Governor Guo and Imperial Physician Chang

When I went down to the first floor, I saw an old man in his sixties lying halfway on a couch, and a seven or eight-year-old boy knelt beside him, holding the old man's hand with both hands and calling for grandfather with tears in his eyes.The old man had a bit of pain on his face, but he still had a smile on his face and whispered comfortingly: "Grandfather is fine, don't worry."

Mu Jiaojiao walked forward quickly, and finally saw that the old man's left trouser leg was rolled up high, his ankle was swollen in a big circle, and a large piece of skin was knocked off the upper knee, and he was bleeding profusely.

"Is this an old injury?" She asked immediately.

The old man's eyes flashed. "Today, the old man took his grandson to play in the street, and accidentally fell down. This is how it is when the bones are brittle, just a little bit of nibbling and touching. Hey, I'm really old!"

"Grandfather, it's all about the grandson's fault. The grandson shouldn't run so fast." The little boy said in a sad voice with tears rolling in his eyes.

The old man patted his head and sighed silently.

Mu Jiaojiao glanced at the pair of grandparents and grandchildren indifferently, then said to Hongdou: "Bring me that purse embroidered with peonies."

The red bean was flipped out quickly and handed over, Mu Jiaojiao took out a brown-yellow pill from it and put it to the old man's mouth: "Eat this!"

The old man didn't move, but the little boy immediately pushed her away as if facing a big enemy: "Who are you? What is this thing in your hand? I don't know why, what are you going to feed my grandfather?"

"Naturally it is a medicine that is beneficial to your grandfather's health." Mu Jiaojiao said.

"Hmph, who would believe you? My servant has already gone to invite a doctor, and I don't need you here!" the boy said loudly.

Cheng Nineniang, who came later, was furious when she heard this, and grabbed him by the collar. "You little bastard, who taught you these words? One of her is worth as many good doctors. The pills she made by herself are more effective than the prescriptions prescribed by the doctor. It is because of your eight lifetimes of practice that you can meet her." Luckily, you guys still dare to dislike her now?"

"The sage has said that women's words should not be listened to!" The little boy raised his head and shouted after struggling a few times to no avail.Although she was small in stature, her aura was almost comparable to that of Cheng Nineteen Niang.

Cheng Nineniang couldn't help laughing after hearing this. "I didn't see it, you know a lot at such a young age! Come on, come on, I'll let you see if I, a woman, can be trusted!"

As he said that, no matter how desperately struggling the boy was, he simply took him aside.

Mu Jiaojiao looked at the old man again: "It's not just that you have sprained your foot, but you have fallen so hard that your bones are misaligned. In addition, you have old injuries, and your bones are brittle when you get older. It is extremely difficult for the doctor to treat you. If you wait for the doctor invited by your servant to come, it will take half an hour. Are you sure you can bear to let your grandson watch and blame yourself for such a long time?"

Suddenly, two sharp lights shot out from the old man's eyes. "How did you know that I have old wounds?"

"Your posture." Mu Jiaojiao said, "Although you hurt your left leg, you have only supported your knee with one hand and your waist with the other hand, and your body is still lying on your side, which means that you are in more pain now. It’s the ankles and knees, and probably the thighs are also hurting. It’s just that you have strong concentration and have been enduring it.”

"I really didn't see it, you are still a good player, little lady." Lao Tzu said meaningfully.

Mu Jiaojiao smiled faintly. "Now, can you rest assured to take my medicine?"

"Of course." The old man said, motioning the servant to take the pill for him to swallow.Mu Jiaojiao took out another medicine and handed it to the servant, "This one is made with water or vinegar."

The servant agreed to go.

Mu Jiaojiao then put both hands on the old man's ankle, and gently pinched it a few times.Seeing this, the old man smiled and asked: "Little lady, are you planning to set the old man's bones?"

"Why not?" Mu Jiaojiao said, suddenly exerting force on his hand.

Hearing a crackling sound, the big guys on the first floor were startled, and even Cheng Nineniang, who was playing with the little boy, was stunned.Xiaotong quickly took the opportunity to break free from her restraint and run back.

"Grandfather, grandfather, how are you doing?"

"Don't worry Dalang, grandfather is fine. She was really treating his illness just now! Look, grandfather's ankle is already healed!" the old man smiled, moving his ankle in front of his grandson.

Only then did the big guy realize that his ankle, which was motionless just now, is now flexible, and even the redness and swelling on the ankle have disappeared a lot.

Seeing this, the little boy quickly wiped away his tears, turned around and saluted Mu Jiaojiao: "Thank you sir for treating my grandfather's illness. I was reckless just now, and I wrongly blamed you, please forgive me."

Cheng Nineniang laughed again when she heard the words.

Mu Jiaojiao gave her a white look.At this time the servant had already melted the medicine in the vinegar bowl, Mu Jiaojiao immediately took it and carefully applied it on the old man's ankles and knees.She applied a thick layer evenly, and didn't wipe her hands until half a bowl of water was covered, then she said, "Okay, wait a little longer, and your blood flow will stop."

"Thank you, little lady." The old man thanked quickly.

"You're welcome, you just need to give me five pennies for medical expenses." Mu Jiaojiao said.

The old man was startled. "Five strings of money? So expensive?"

"This medicine is worth it." Mu Jiaojiao said.

The two looked at each other, and the old man finally nodded: "Ah Bai, give this little lady a piece of gold leaf."

The servant quickly responded, and took out a gold leaf and handed it to the old man.The old man handed it to Mu Jiaojiao instead.

Mu Jiaojiao accepted it unceremoniously, then took out another slender lump about half a finger long from her purse, and carefully wrapped it with a handkerchief. "This is the same medicine as before. You take it back, and then cut off a thin piece and take it internally every day. It will be very good for your recovery. If you have any other trauma, you can do the same. It doesn't matter whether you take it internally or apply it externally. question."

"Then I would like to thank the little lady for giving me the medicine." The old man calmly ordered his servant to take the medicine.

After everything was over, Cui Pu rushed in in a hurry.

Without looking at the people around, he went directly to Mu Jiaojiao's side, grabbed her and walked out.As he walked, he kept nagging: "Didn't you say you were just out for a walk? Why did you come here? It made it hard for me to find it! Let's go home quickly, and you will never be allowed to be alone again. Come out and mess around!"

"En." Mu Jiaojiao, who was neither humble nor overbearing and had a leisurely demeanor in front of the old man just now, is now like a well-behaved child, obediently letting him drag him out, and quickly catching up with his steps.Even after listening to his lesson, she wasn't displeased at all. Instead, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, as if she was very happy?

Seeing this, the old man's eyes flickered again.

Not long after Mu Jiaojiao and Cui Pu left, a middle-aged man finally rushed over.

"Father!" He strode up to the old man, "My son is late, please punish me!"

"Really, how did a small matter alarm you? You just returned to Chang'an yesterday, didn't you say that you would go to see the Shangguan today? Wouldn't it be a slack for the Shangguan to come here at this time?" The old man was displeased complain.

"Father has something to do. Of course, I have to come and take care of Dad first. At the Shangguan's place, I have already sent someone to explain it." The middle-aged man said, "Don't worry, Father. After I know the news, I have sent someone to invite Chang Very good. He'll be here soon."

"No, I'm fine." The old man shook his head.

The middle-aged man was startled.The old man made a gesture to stand up, but the middle-aged man subconsciously reached out to help him, but the old man pushed him away.

The old man landed on both feet, stood up steadily, and walked a few steps in front of his son: "Look, am I already healed?"

The middle-aged man looked dull. "What's going on here? I obviously heard Ah Hei say..."

"I'll tell you what happened just now, let's go back now!" said the old man.

The father has a life, and the son has to obey.The middle-aged man quickly bowed his head and followed the old man out of the tea house.

Because the old man broke his leg, it was inconvenient to ride a horse now, so the middle-aged man ordered someone to drive a carriage over.After serving the old man to get on the horse, the middle-aged man also abandoned the horse and carriage, and stayed with his father and son.

The carriage started, and the middle-aged man couldn't help asking: "Father, what happened just now?"

"Grandfather did fall just now, and the injury was extremely serious. But just now, a brother came, he set the grandfather's bones, and gave him a medicine, which was applied to the wound, and then Grandpa's ankle is healed, and the wound is no longer bleeding!" The little boy couldn't bear it, and hurriedly shouted.

The old man smiled and touched his grandson's head. "That one is not a brother, she is a sister."

The little boy blinked and shook his head desperately. "That's obviously brother, not sister!"

The old man stroked his beard and laughed. "Okay, okay, now you can treat her as a brother. When you see her again later, you will know whether she is a brother or a sister."

The middle-aged man was even more surprised when he heard what the grandparents and grandchildren said: "Could it be a little lady who treated your father?"

"Exactly." The old man nodded.

"Is she really a little lady?" The middle-aged man's face was full of disbelief, "Which little lady has such magical skills, can set bones for people at a young age, and can make such good wound medicine?"

"You've been out of town for a long time, so naturally you don't know about some recent rumors in Chang'an City." The old man said meaningfully.

The middle-aged man lowered his head. "Also ask daddy to clear up my son's doubts."

"A few days ago, a miraculous doctor woman appeared in Chang'an City." The old man said, and then patted his grandson's head again, "Da Lang, tell your father about this."

"Yes, grandfather." The little boy agreed frivolously, and then told all the things that had been rumored a few days ago.Although he is still young, he speaks very clearly and speaks in a very orderly manner, and he explained the matter clearly in a few simple words.

The middle-aged man finished listening. "Could it be, father, do you think that this lady Mu Liu is the one who treated you today?"

"Now I should call her Mrs. Cui Liushao." The old man said, "If I was skeptical when I first saw her with the nineteenth mother of the Cheng family, then I saw that dude from the Cui family come to look for her in person. She, I've already made up my mind."

"Since that's the case, then later on, we must ask someone to prepare a generous gift and send it to Cui's residence to thank Madam Cui Liushao for saving her life." The middle-aged man hurriedly said.

"That's natural." The old man nodded, "Cui Ge's daughter-in-law personally cured me, and gave me this medicine before leaving. It's just a piece of gold leaf, which is really cheap."

"Father, I understand! That thank you gift must be well-prepared, and it will definitely satisfy Mrs. Cui Liushao." The middle-aged man nodded quickly.

"I'm afraid, what she loves is not money at all!" The old man smiled and shook his head.

The father and son returned to the mansion, not long after an old doctor with white beard and hair rushed over.

"Physician Chang!" Seeing this person, the middle-aged man rushed up to meet him, "Why are you still here? Didn't I ask someone to tell you, is my dad all right?"

"Guo Inspector Guo has an old illness, and now he has fallen again. The situation must not be optimistic. I'd better come and see it." Chang Taiyi insisted.

Now that everyone has come, there is no reason to drive him back.The middle-aged man led him to the old man's room.

Seeing him coming, the old man also smiled heartily: "You are late! I am healed now! Look, the swelling in my ankle has subsided, the bleeding in my knee has stopped, and even the old wound on my thigh is no longer hurting!"

"Really?" Doctor Chang insisted on checking his wound with a look of disbelief, and gave him a pulse, and then the doubts on his face deepened, "Your wound is really healed. What's going on?"

"Of course it's someone else's medicine. I've taken so many medicines from you, and I've never had such a good effect!" The old man smiled and happily talked about what happened in the teahouse.

Physician Chang sneered a few times after hearing this. "Who am I supposed to be, so it's that Lady Mu again? She's just holding a few ancestral prescriptions in her hand, it's no big deal. Didn't you see it just now, she didn't even feel your pulse, let alone check wound, I directly took out the patent medicine and gave it to you to eat, which shows that she is only so capable!"

"Then what does she say about setting my bones? I have also been injured several times on my ankles. You have said that the bones in my ankles have been broken several times. Even you dare not move there. You were very careful about setting my bones, as if you were afraid of breaking them. But she didn’t even bat an eyelid, and straightened me right back! You see, I’m doing fine now, there’s nothing wrong with me!” said the old man , and deliberately jumped a few times in front of him.

Physician Chang opened his mouth. "That, that's her luck."

"Hey, brother Yannan, I told you to stop deceiving yourself, okay? What's wrong with admitting that a little lady is worse than you in medicine? Didn't you always lament that your disciples are not as good as one, and now you finally come It's a good one, it shows that your medical school is expected to pass on, you should be happy!" The old man smiled, and patted him on the shoulder several times, "Okay, okay, you just admit it! I'll take you to meet that little lady again, huh?"

"If there is a chance, I will definitely go to meet her!" Chang Imperial Physician took a deep breath, and said through gritted teeth.
