22. Li Xiqiang

***

Li Xiqiang waved his hand and rushed away the visiting doctor, ran to Xu Xiaole, and said, "I am the famous Li Xiqiang in Suzhou. Is anyone in your family sick?"

Xu Xiaole was about to say yes, but Li Xiqiang waved his hand hard again: "It must be there, otherwise what are you doing here? Take the lead. Well, by the way, wait for me to go back to get the medicine box first."

Xu Xiaole pulled Li Xiqiang's arm in a hurry: "Doctor Li, do you have nothing to ask me?"

Li Xiqiang was stunned and suddenly realized, "Yes, yes! When I heard that there was a patient, I was anxious. I had something to ask you." He looked at Xu Xiaole seriously and asked, "Can you afford the medical fee? I had to pay five taels of silver when I went to the clinic. Judging from your young age, I can give you a 20% discount and only charge you four taels of silver. Do you have it?"

The consultation fee was within Xu Xiaole's acceptance range, but the doctor really made it difficult for him to accept it.

Li Xiqiang blew his beard and said, "Do you?"

Xu Xiaole was suppressed by this momentum: "Some are there...but I can't believe you."

Li Xiqian raised his neck and sniffed, and wanted to make a heroic look and laugh three times, but he still failed. He said, "Since you can't believe me, why do you come to me?"

Xu Xiaole said: "It was recommended by Dr. Ge from the Baydoutang, but you look like this..."

When Li Xiqiang heard this, he suddenly became unhurried and pretended to twist his beard: "What's wrong with me like? Let me tell you the truth. Ge Zaixing would not recommend me to Li Xiqiang if he was at a loss! Ha, are you afraid? He doesn't dare to accept the disease. Except for these wandering doctors who are not afraid of death in Suzhou Prefecture, who dares to accept it!"

Xu Xiaole also made the same sense when he heard this. Now that his sister-in-law is seriously ill and there is no doctor willing to come to the hospital, it is really the doctor who chooses patients, so it is not the turn of her to choose a doctor! But then again, is it better to see her sister-in-law being tortured by the disease, or to find a quack doctor to go back and torture her sister-in-law with the disease?

Xu Xiaole was unsure of his mind, but Li Xiqiang couldn't hold back. The old man said, "What are you hesitating about? If you hand over the five taels of silver, I will naturally be able to cure the disease."

When Xu Xiaole heard this, he was exactly the same as the big words of the doctor, and he refused to pay easily: "I just said 400% of the price, how can you start the price?"

"I was anxious just now, but now I'm determined. I know you have no way out, so of course I have to take the price." Li Xiqiang said.

Xu Xiaole was completely shocked: "Old man, do you know that your family is so shameless?"

Li Xiqiang said proudly: "I am just a ban man. I am not hungry if I eat one person and my family is not hungry. Where can I get such a burden as 'family'? Young man, don't talk about it or not, will I give it to me?"

Xu Xiaole was about to run away with the money: This is not like a doctor, it is simply a disaster!

Li Xiqiang rushed over and hugged Xu Xiaole's calves: "Don't run! I can really cure the disease this time!"

Xu Xiaole kicked: "Don't hinder me from going to the doctor, get out of here!"

Li Xiqiang carried it twice, and yelled, "You kick it again, if you kick it again, I will be kicked to death by you! Then, you are such a young and handsome man who will be held in prison as a rabbit by the government, and your patient will be tortured to death and will be worse than death in the next life! You kick it!"

"Oh! You old man, you dare to curse my sister-in-law!" Xu Xiaole said so, but seeing that Li Xiqiang is over fifty years old, his beard is gray and his whole body is probably not two pounds of meat. If he really wants to kick it, he will definitely not escape.

Xu Xiaole pulled his legs hard, but found that the old man looked skinny, but he was not light in weight, so he didn't pull it out.

Li Xiqiang hugged Xu Xiaole's legs: "In this way, you and I will take a step back, four or five cents of silver, plus a hanging of copper coins."

"Your daughter, Tong! Let me go!" Xu Xiaole finally resisted the urge to kick him.

Li Xiqiang hugged him tighter and suddenly shouted: "Oh, kill me! The young and strong young man is going to kill me!"

Xu Xiaole was so angry that he cursed: "You old guy, you dare to mess with him! If you call me again, you will die with you! Ge Zaixing! You cheat your young master! You two of you lie!"

"Yes, Ge Zaixing's big liar! Ge Zaixing's big scoundrel! Ge Zaixing's big bastard! Ge Zaixing's big bastard! Ge Zaixing gave birth to a son without an ass!" Li Xiqiang cursed with Xu Xiaole, looking even more indignant than Xu Xiaole.

Xu Xiaole was completely confused.

Li Xiqiang scolded Shu Chang and smiled and said, "Hehe, how about it, just invite me."

Xu Xiaole was in tears and couldn't even beat him. He couldn't escape, but he couldn't escape. The old man with a scoundrel's skills was even more profound than him. He could only blame his own life experience for being too shallow - there was nothing he could do!

Seeing that more and more onlookers were watching them as monkey dramas, Xu Xiaole finally knew that his sister-in-law had a good intention of teaching him to "be good at face" on weekdays. He couldn't stand such embarrassment, and finally said, "Get up, just you, but I'll agree first: Four taels of silver, there's no more than a penny!"

Li Xiqiang's eyes turned and said, "Give me two more buns, I'm almost starving to death."

Xu Xiaole spat and said, "I really got into a declining god! Forget it, I will treat it as a good deed and add two buns to you! But I will make it clear first, I will give the money separately. If my sister-in-law improves, I will give the first money. When it is completely done, I will pay the full amount."

Li Xiqiang shouted: "You're too much!"

Xu Xiaole sneered, "Excessive? My sister-in-law and I depend on each other for life. If you treat my sister-in-law to death, I will be locked in prison as a rabbit, and I will ask you to taste the taste of life worse than death!" After he said this, he was a little scared, and felt a little possessed by his sister-in-law, and muttered to himself: Could it be that he really eats someone's meal to show whom? Why do I feel like my sister-in-law is becoming more and more like my sister-in-law!

Li Xiqiang also had a cold neck: "Okay, okay, if you get better, you will get the money... But you have to buy the buns now. I've been hungry for three days."

"Bah! Why didn't you starve to death? You're still so strong..." Xu Xiaoleman reluctantly took out a few copper coins, saying that he was admitting defeat.

Li Xiqiang took the copper coins and then got up from the ground, laughing and said, "Our ancestor said that the best is better than water, so why don't you? Because water is always walking to a low place, it is called being invincible. I won't charge you for this reason. Let's go, follow me in to get the medicine box."

Xu Xiaole sprayed a heavy turbid air from his nostrils, and had to follow him in. When he entered, he only regretted it. The whole temple was dilapidated and stood or sat around and was a idle man. The banners of "The Wonderful Hands Rejuvenation" can be seen everywhere, and you can vaguely see the words "Iron Mouth Break" on the back, which shows that one thing is used for two purposes.

Li Xiqiang said: "Most of the doctors who rattle the bells have gone out. There are few people in the temple today. I am not a doctor like them. I am a serious doctor in the hall!"

Xu Xiaole turned his head and looked at it, feeling empty, and said, "I really didn't see it."

Li Xiqiang lives in a room in the temple. The doors and windows are about to fall apart, with mottled walls revealing the wooden bricks inside. In the whole room, there is no other room except three bricks to build a broken door panel as a bed.

The room can be filled with eyes at first glance. Xu Xiaole glanced at it and couldn't help asking, "Where is your medicine box?"

Li Xiqiang pulled out a brick from under the bed, and the bed had to slant to the ground. Xu Xiaole looked carefully and found that it was not a brick, but a dirty mahogany box.

Li Xiqiang pressed the motive, and the box made a click, and a crack appeared in the middle. He opened it and looked: "Everyone is here, let's go." Xu Xiaole also leaned over and took a look, feeling disgusting: "Why are there still a nest of maggots crawling here!"

Li Xiqiang closed the lid: "This is a medicine called a slack silkworm. It can relieve wind and stop spasms, dispel wind and relieve pain, and resolve phlegm and disperse nodules."

Xu Xiaole was angry and laughed: "Do you think I look like a fool? Are there any living zombie silkworms?"

Li Xiqiang looked calm: "They were originally dead, but after entering my treasure medicine box, all those who died came to life!"
