Chapter 44 - 44: Good Luck Comes 2
Li Fci handed the prescriptions to the Chief Physician Yuan Zheng and left.
Recently, there had been more infectious diseases in the military. Even the capital that was located in the north couldn’t avoid it. One could imagine how serious the situation in the south was.
After the various military camps reported the situation to the Imperial Court, the entire Imperial Hospital had been trying to come up with a prescription to solve the crisis. However, it was to no avail, and the prescriptions they developed were useless.
After Yuan Zheng received the prescription, he immediately unfolded it and read it.
As he read, he could not help but feel excited.
The various herbs on the prescription complemented each other and brought the medicinal property to the maximum. One more or one less herb would reduce the medicinal properties by half. Everything was just right.
“Wonderful, really wonderful…”
He had been involved in medicine for most of his life. One look at the prescription and he knew what kind of a person wrote it and what illness it was used to treat.
The person who wrote this prescription must be a Divine Doctor.
After the imperial physicians heard the Chief Physician’s words, they immediately surrounded him. When they saw the prescription, they exclaimed.
“Chief physician, who wrote this prescription? There is finally hope for our soldiers!”
Yuan Zheng looked around. “You also think it’s good?”
The Imperial Hospital had people with brilliant medical skills. They were experienced and knew if a prescription was good or bad at a glance.
“Chief physician, quickly prepare the herbs and send them to the soldiers in the south.”
Yuan Zheng nodded and heaved a sigh of relief. “Okay.”
Shuiyun County.
On the side of the street, under a big tree, there was a small stall surrounded by people. It was noisy.
Wang Peifang was led by two servant girls to the stall. She looked angrily at the stall and the tall and thin girl beside it.
She clenched her handkerchief with all her might. “Chu Qingzhi! You are such an ingrate. When you have good things, you don’t give it to me to repay me for raising you up but you actually started selling it here.”
The two servant girls lowered their heads and remained silent. However, they were complaining about Wang Peifang in their hearts. Back then, when Chu Qingzhi was in the residence, she did not have a good life at all. If it were them, they would not give Wang Peifang a dime.
Wang Peifang walked towards the stall angrily.
Chu Qingzhi had already noticed that Wang Peifang was here, but she pretended not to know.
This vicious adoptive mother. If she dared to hit her like before, she would teach her a lesson and seek justice for Chu Qingzhi.
Wang Peifang rushed over and reached out to pinch Chu Qingzhi’s ear like before. “You ungrateful girl…”
Bang! Before Wang Peifang could finish cursing, she was sent flying by Chu Qingzhi’s kick and fell heavily to the ground.
The scene fell silent.
As Chu Qingzhi rubbed her ears that felt slight pain from being pinched, she shouted in surprise, “So it’s my adoptive mother. I thought it was some scoundrel who touched me.”
After shouting, she hurriedly shouted to the two servant girls, “Hurry up and help my adoptive mother up. See if she’s injured.”
The servant girls were scared silly. Only then did they react and hurriedly run to help Wang Peifang up.
Wang Peifang felt that all the bones in her body had shattered. She was in so much pain that she did not have the strength to scold anyone. She was embarrassed and urged, “Hurry up and help me back. Go get a doctor. Hurry up.”
Chu Qingzhi, I’ll settle the scores with you slowly!!!
The two servant girls did not dare to disobey. They quickly helped her up and left.
However, they were secretly praising Chu Qingzhi for doing a good job. They were often scolded by Wang Peifang, but they only dared to curse in their hearts. Now, Chu Qingzhi had avenged them. How satisfying!
Chu Qingzhi also felt that it was satisfying. Under normal circumstances, she would definitely not dare to hit Wang Peifang. In ancient times, filial piety was a big thing. Even if she was sent back to her biological family, Wang Peifang would still be her adoptive mother. If the news of her hitting her adoptive mother spread, she would get a bad reputation and could forget about getting married.
The purpose of her transmigrating to this world was to overcome the love tribulation. If she did not get married, wouldn’t it cut off her path to immortality? This was definitely not allowed.
Now that there was a reason why she “accidentally” hit Wang Peilang, no one said anything. After Wang Peifang left, everyone started to buy things as usual.
Chu Xuhua, Chu Qingyue, and Chu Third hurriedly came over to show their concern for Chu Qingzhi. Seeing that her ears were red, their hearts ached and they asked her to rest.
Chu Qingzhi’s ears hurt. She did not reject their good intentions and stood at the side to rub her ears.
She thought to herself that she had to hit Wang Peifang harder next time.
Four hooligans walked over to the stall.
“Move aside, move aside. Can’t you see that we are here?”
“We have never eaten ice cream bars before, so we specially came over to give it a try.”
When everyone saw the hooligans, they immediately retreated to the side. Some people had suffered from these people and stood even further away.
The hooligans took out a few pieces of ice cream bar from the box and started eating without paying.
Chu Xuhua didn’t want to cause trouble, so he said kindly, “Dear guests, it’s a total of 50 copper coins.”
Upon hearing this, the tall hooligan threw the ice cream bar away and pushed Chu Xuhua hard. Chu Xuhua crashed into the box, his face twisted with pain.
The hooligan said angrily, “How dare you ask me to pay? You are courting death!”
Chu Qingyue was afraid. She watched with fear and did not dare to move.
Chu Third stepped forward to protect them. “You should pay if you take our things. Everyone has to pay. Why can’t you pay!”
The hooligans threw away all the ice cream bars in their hands and surrounded Chu Third with ferocious expressions.
“It seems that if I don’t teach you a lesson, you won’t learn.”
“Brothers, do it. If you kill him, it’s on me.”
The tall hooligan looked down from above. As he spoke, he grabbed Chu Third’s clothes with one hand and clenched his other hand into a fist, about to smash it down on Chu Third’s face.
A gust of wind blew, and the tall hooligan fell heavily to the ground three meters away..
