Chapter 25
"Listen to my sister, I can't ask for your things for free. Your watermelon is of good quality. I don't know how to price it, so I'll just follow the price of the jade honeydew melon, and I'll give you the rest as travel expenses."
Song Tingran declined. There was a large flow of passengers at the entrance of Zuixiang Building, and they were all looking at them. In the end, she accepted it, feeling warm in her heart. She originally wanted to ask for the tea, but she was afraid that she would not accept it. Because of the money, I wanted to buy it elsewhere. Who would have thought that it would be discovered.
When Song Tingran disappeared, shopkeeper Lin immediately took two large watermelons to the official station in Ping'an Town.
Song Tingran bought a complete set of tea sets on the roadside. Such things for literati and elegant guests are always expensive, costing three taels of silver!
But thinking that Shi Yan would be happy, she bought it anyway. When she waited at the tea stall, she saw Xiao Yuchen and Wen Li sitting upright, not ordering anything else, just looking around.
Seeing Song Tingran coming, Xiao Yuchen was the first to stand up and directly took the backpack from her body. It felt a lot lighter inside, so he didn't ask any more questions. He was just thinking about his seed in his heart, and there was an anxious look on his face. .
"Are you worried about me or about buying seeds?"
"Ah? Of course, yes, I am worried about you, my wife..."
Xiao Yuchen felt guilty, and Wen Li walked to him silently, holding a wrapped snack in his hand.
"You didn't eat?"
"Well, we didn't go out until we were full. Let's take these snacks back and eat them with everyone."
Xiao Yuchen smiled naively and nodded gently.
Song Tingran saw that they had drank tea and took them to the remote alley.
"My wife, do you sell seeds here? Why do I feel like I'm getting more and more remote as I go?"
Song Tingran said seriously that she had bought seeds while she was away. She pointed to the things under the pile of leaves and tiles.
Seeing that Xiao Yuchen and Wen Li were both at a loss, she opened a small piece, revealing the corn stalks that were about to become ears inside.
"My wife, this is almost mature. How did you buy it?"
Xiao Yuchen was scared to death. There was no such thing for sale on the street. They were all seeds. Moreover, with such a good quality, it would not be easy to survive even if they were dug out of someone else's field.
"It doesn't matter where it was done. I'm a very capable wife. Do you understand?"
The two nodded blankly. Xiao Yuchen stretched out his hand and quickly covered the place where he had just been. He also looked around, estimating that with such a large amount, the remaining fields would be filled.
"Xiao Yuchen, you go to the town to find the wife of the Zhao family, load it on the oxcart, and take her back. I will take Wen Li to the medical center first. If you get better first, go to the medical center closest to Zuixiang Building. Find us. If we buy it first, we will come here to find you."
Wen Li resisted medical clinics. When he was a child, what he looked forward to most was that his mother could take him to see his face. As he grew older and was disappointed again and again, this became what he hated the most.
"Such a big thing... I'm afraid I can't do it well."
"How will you know if you don't try? Xiao Yuchen, I am very optimistic about you."
It was obviously a word of encouragement. After saying that, the three of them fell silent. Xiao Yuchen rubbed his hands and said, "Well, let me give it a try."
"Okay, let's move separately."
Xiao Yuchen left quickly. He was very afraid that these saplings and half-sized rice would be wilted by the sun, and he was also afraid that someone with ulterior motives would see and steal them.
Thinking of this, his steps became much faster.
On the other side, Song Tingran and Wen Li also came to the door of the medical center. She walked in first. He was behind slowly, unwilling to enter, but there was no way.
"Shopkeeper, is the doctor here today?"
"Here we go, there's a queue over there."
The shopkeeper of the medical clinic pointed his hand and saw a long queue on the right. It seemed that this doctor must have good medical skills.
Song Tingran walked directly to the end of the queue and lined up. Wen Li stood behind her, surrounded by women. He was the only man in the queue.
The time for a cup of tea has passed, and there are still four people in line in front of her. Song Tingran is a little tired from standing. He has eaten less recently and moved when he has nothing to do. He estimates that he has lost three or four kilograms, but for this body, he can't stand it at all. A piece of cake.
"My wife, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Even though Wen Li had something on his mind, he still couldn't help but care about Song Tingran. She shook her head and whispered, "It's not me who sees the doctor, it's you who sees the doctor."
Wen Li didn't react. Although he couldn't eat enough before, he was still healthy. Why did he need to see a doctor? His heart palpitated for a while, until his wife pointed to the scar on his face, confirming his suspicion.
He quickly covered the scar, and tears fell down like this. There were people queuing up in front and behind, looking at them as if they were watching the fun.
"Don't cry. It doesn't hurt to see the doctor. There are people looking over here. Don't cry anymore."
Wen Li wiped away his tears in embarrassment. It was really rude for him to be outside. He quickly adjusted his mood.
Song Tingran can now definitely believe that Wen Li is not just a little cry bag, but he definitely has a tear-incontinent constitution. Who can shed such big tears in 0.1 seconds, and still continue to do so.
After another cup of tea, they were finally in line. Song Tingran took Wen Li and sat opposite the doctor.
The doctor was a little confused. All the people who came here to see a doctor were women. Men had illnesses that were difficult to talk about and would not come to the hospital.
"Who sees the doctor?"
"Hello, doctor. My husband was naughty when he was a child and left a scar on his face. I wanted to see if it can be removed."
The doctor didn't say anything else after hearing this. He motioned to Wen Li to put his hand on the diagnosis bag and take a pulse first.
Wen Li could feel the gazes of everyone behind him. He was on pins and needles. Song Tingran beside him made him feel more at ease.
"The body has a large deficit, internal regulation is unstable, and the scar is from childhood, so it is quite difficult. If you take medicine to treat it, pay attention to your diet, and apply our exclusive ointment, it can be faded. Whether it can be completely removed depends on the individual. The physique is gone.”
"Doctor, we'll treat it, just prescribe the medicine."
Song Tingran knew that no matter whether it was modern or ancient times, doctors would always reserve room for words and would not speak too harshly. This meant there was great hope.
"The price is not cheap. For internal use and external application, the total treatment is estimated to be about fifteen taels of silver."
So expensive.
The people in the queue at the back naturally heard it and started talking about it instantly.
"Fifteen taels of silver can be used to buy another one, so it's better to save it."
"Yes, I said this girl should not be treated if she really can't do it. It's not a serious problem that threatens the body."
Wen Li wanted to hold back his emotions, but he couldn't. He turned his back and wiped away the tears that flowed out, and kept wiping them.
