Chapter 227 I think she is addicted to being a bandit
Shen Ruolan got to know some of this man's background from Shen Feier. He was her uncle's long-term patient. From Shen Feier's complaints, she knew that this man was a lustful man. If he wanted to recover completely from his illness, he would need to abstain from sex for at least two years, otherwise her treatment would be in vain.
When Liu Rui heard Shen Ruolan wanted to sign a written agreement, he frowned and said, "Miss, isn't it just that you treat me and I pay you in cash? Why do you need to sign a written agreement?"
Shen Ruolan looked at him and said, "I don't like disobedient patients, otherwise it will ruin my reputation. So, if you want to treat me, you have to sign a written agreement. If you don't want to, forget it."
After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she left without looking back.
When Liu Rui saw her leaving, he quickly caught up with her and said, "Girl, I promise you, as long as you can cure my illness, I can agree to anything you want."
Shen Ruolan heard that the other party was willing to sign a written agreement, so she started to talk about the reward. "As for me, the fees for seeing a doctor are all based on my mood. Your behavior just now made me very embarrassed. So, before I treat you, you must prepare a reward of 50,000 taels of silver, 50,000 catties of grain, and 20 cows for me. Don't come to me if you are short of any of these."
After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she paused and added: "I want to hear the answer before tomorrow morning, otherwise it will be regarded as your disagreement."
After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she left in a good mood.
Shen Ruolan's request made Liu Rui's eyes widen. He could understand that she wanted money, but he was confused when she asked for food and cattle. What kind of doctor is this woman?
The servant behind him reminded him, "Sir, Master Shen should be home soon. Let's wait for him to come back and ask him to help you."
It was really Shen Ruolan's exorbitant asking price that scared the servant. You know, their young master has been coming to Yaowang Valley for medical treatment for many years, and has not spent more than 10,000 taels of silver in total. But the young doctor, whose medical skills are unknown, asked for tens of thousands of taels. He was even more hateful than the bandits in the mountains.
After Liu Rui heard what the servant said, he turned around and glared at him, then said to the servant, "Have you forgotten what Master Shen said last time?"
After the servant heard what his master said, he lowered his head with a depressed look on his face. Of course, he did not forget that Master Shen said that if his master could not control his leg pain, he should not come to him. Even if he came, he would not treat him.
Liu Rui stared at Shen Ruolan's back for a long time before turning around and leaving with a look of reluctance.
He really needed to think carefully about the remuneration for medical treatment. Although his family was not short of money, he couldn't let others blackmail him so easily.
Shen Ruolan didn't take Liu Rui's matter to heart. She found Shen Ziqian's place and saw that he was busy treating patients. Shen Ruolan held the child and prepared to wait outside.
Unexpectedly, when Shen Ziqian looked up, he happened to see her back. He quickly put down the patient's hand and called to her, "Sister Lan."
When Shen Ruolan heard Shen Ziqian calling her, she turned around, smiled at him and said, "Cousin, you go ahead and do your work. I'll wait for you outside."
Shen Ziqian nodded to her, took care of the patient, and called to his younger cousin, "Yide, come over and help big brother."
Shen Yide, who was helping the medicine boy to prepare medicine, heard his eldest cousin calling him. He quickly put down what he was doing and came over to ask, "Brother, you called me?"
Shen Ziqian said to his brother, "Well, you can help these patients first. If you encounter patients whose causes are uncertain, just ask them to sit aside and wait for me."
When Shen Yide heard his brother asking him to see patients, he responded to him happily, "Hey, brother, go ahead and do your work. I will take care of everyone."
Shen Ziqian nodded to his brother, said something to the patient, then got up and went out to find Shen Ruolan.
"Sister Lan, why are you here?" Shen Ziqian came out of the ward and asked Shen Ruolan's back.
Shen Ruolan handed the child to Aunt Liu and the other two behind her, and said to Shen Ziqian: "Cousin, I came here to ask you, when will grandpa and the others be able to return?"
After hearing what Shen Ruolan said, Shen Ziqian understood. She must have been unable to wait, so she came to him to ask about grandpa and the others.
Shen Ziqian was silent for a moment, then said to Shen Ruolan, "Sister Lan, Grandpa wrote to say that the atmosphere on the border between Beiming and Yan is very tense, and no one dares to open the city gate easily, so they took a detour through Xia Country and are expected to return in three days."
Shen Ruolan heard that she would be back in three days, so she said to Shen Ziqian, "Brother, I understand. You can continue to be busy."
When Shen Ziqian saw Shen Ruolan was about to leave, he quickly said to her, "Sister Lan, since you are here, why don't you come with me to see the doctor with everyone?"
Shen Ziqian really wanted to see how good Shen Ruolan's medical skills were. Thinking of this, he continued to say to Shen Ruolan: "I met a strange patient today. His symptoms have not been diagnosed yet. Are you interested in going with me to see him?"
Shen Ruolan looked back at the Shen family's pulse diagnosis hall and politely refused Shen Ziqian, "Cousin, the child is still young. I don't want to come into contact with too many patients at the moment."
This is the Shen family's base camp. Shen Ruolan doesn't want to get too involved with them, lest she bring bad influence to the Shen family when she treats other people in the future.
Seeing that Shen Ruolan was unwilling, Shen Ziqian didn't want to force her, so he just said to her, "Okay, then you go take care of the children. I'll come to see you later when I'm free."
"Okay." Shen Ruolan said, then she turned and left.
Shen Ruolan left first, and a servant came to find Shen Ziqian and said, "Master, the Madam wants you to go back."
Shen Ziqian heard his mother looking for him, he looked at Xiao Si and asked: "What does mother want to talk to me about?"
He still has many patients waiting for him at this moment. If there is nothing urgent, he will not go back for the time being.
Xiao Si shook his head to Shen Ziqian and said, "I don't know, but it seems like Madam is very anxious."
Shen Ziqian heard that his mother was very anxious, so he went into the house, changed his clothes, and followed the servant home.
As soon as Shen Ziqian entered the house, Mrs. Shen hurried forward and shouted to him, "Qian'er, something bad has happened."
Shen Ziqian supported his mother and asked, "Mom, what happened?"
Madam Shen looked at her son and said anxiously, "Qian'er, a servant just came over and said that Ruolan is charging a sky-high price to help Liu Rui treat his illness. How can this be possible?"
The Shen family has always been very reasonable in charging medical fees. Although they sometimes charge a little more for some people, it will never exceed three hundred taels. Of course, expensive medicinal materials and those voluntarily given by patients are not counted.
After Shen Ziqian heard what his mother said, he frowned and said, "Mom, let's not get involved in this matter. I think Sister Lan should have her own plans."
At this time, Mrs. Shen San came in from outside and said to Shen Ziqian unhappily: "What's your plan? I think she is addicted to being a bandit."
