Chapter 112 A dead horse becomes a living horse doctor
Buying a house caused a lot of trouble. Lin Panpan yawned and looked at Zhang Xiang and said, "Master Xiang, you didn't deliberately bring me here to treat your brother, did you?"
Zhang Xiang's mouth twitched and he said:
"Don't call me Master Xiang, I'm calling you Sister Pan, I'm confused too!
Who did you learn all these skills from? You are absolutely omnipotent!
"What's there to be curious about? This thing is innate. Okay, go get the medicine quickly at Ci'an Pharmacy." Lin Panpan said.
Zhang Xiang looked at the large sheet of paper filled with medicinal herbs and said, "This must be quite a lot of money, right? Hey! I'll be right back."
Lin Panpan found a room next door and took a nap. She was really tired. Acupuncture was very exhausting.
After sleeping for more than an hour, she was woken up by Zhang Xiang: "Do you think these herbs are enough?"
Lin Panpan was stunned: "I asked you to buy one, how many did you buy?"
"I'm just worried that you don't have enough. So I bought 5 directly. You can take a look. If it's not enough, I'll buy more." Zhang Xiang said.
Lin Panpan wrote down dozens of medicinal materials, and each of them can be used to make more than a dozen prescriptions of Chinese medicine. How much would 5 prescriptions cost?
She sorted and packed the herbs directly and said:
"Here is a set of Chinese medicine, take two sets a day. His body is weak, so he can only be treated slowly. This prescription is used in the early stage.
Then I came over every day to give him acupuncture to force out all the toxins in his body."
Ren Guangming's mother wanted to kneel again, but Zhang Xiang grabbed her arm and said, "Godmother, what are you doing? No need to kowtow to her. Panpan is one of us, just treat her like your own child."
It turns out that Ren Guangming's mother is Zhang Xiang's godmother. Mrs. Ren said:
"Panpan, I was serious about what I said before. This house belongs to my mother's family, and I am the only child in her family.
If my family's Guangming gets better, I will transfer the house to you."
Lin Panpan quickly waved her hands and said:
"How can this be so embarrassing! Forget it, just give me some medical expenses when the time comes.
This is actually my first time practicing medicine, and I don’t know if he can make it.”
She is just a half-baked doctor, and coupled with that medical book, to put it bluntly, she is just trying to save the situation. How could she accept someone else's house?
Madam Ren smiled calmly and said:
"You don't have to be polite to me, this is what you deserve. In fact, I have a small courtyard at home.
My son and I will live there when the time comes. As for paying off the debt, there is no rush. I will let Xiangzi figure it out when the time comes."
Lin Panpan coughed and said:
"That won't do. How about this? I'll still give you 5000 yuan.
But it will take some time. I can't come up with that much money right now. How about writing an IOU and paying it back slowly? "
"This..." Mrs. Ren was still a little hesitant.
Zhang Xiang quickly said, "No need for an IOU. I'll be the guarantor for this matter. Stop arguing. It's settled!"
Mrs. Ren quickly took out the key and said:
"Then let's go transfer the ownership tomorrow and hand this house over to you. I'm actually quite relieved because I can see that you like this house very much.
We have always felt that this house is too old and have wanted to replace it for a long time.”
Lin Panpan looked at the key and said:
“No rush, no rush, you guys can just live here first, we’re not actually moving in right now, I just want to put some things here.
Besides, it's such a big house, so we need to find some people to come back and help clean it."
Mrs. Ren smiled and said:
“This is quite a simple matter. My family used to have a few people who were quite successful in their careers and they lived nearby.
Isn’t it Guangming who is facing this problem now! Since the family can’t afford the money, I let them go back first.”
Mrs. Ren slowly began to tell her story:
“Many of my ancestors held high positions of power during the Qing Dynasty.
In the Northeast, they are a prestigious family with a vast estate and immense wealth."
She paused slightly, a trace of loneliness flashing in her eyes:
“Who could have foreseen that as time went by, by the time of my generation, I would be the only girl left.
My elders loved and pitied me, and didn't want me to suffer any injustice, so they found a son-in-law for me."
Her expression became a little complicated, and she continued:
"At first, when he first came into the family, he looked very well-behaved, his words and actions were full of humility, and he obeyed everything the family said.
Later, at some point, he became deeply addicted to gambling and couldn't extricate himself.
Outside, he squandered money recklessly, owed a lot of debts, and was entangled with that prostitute.
I tried to persuade him again and again with earnest words and tears in my eyes, but he seemed to be bewildered and turned a deaf ear to my words, continuing to do as he pleased.
In the end, he simply abandoned everything at home and built a love nest with that prostitute, leading a ridiculous life.
Mrs. Ren's eyes were red and tears were slowly sliding down. She raised her hand slightly and pressed a delicate handkerchief gently on her cheek, but she still couldn't hide the graceful charm of the lady from the past.
Lin Panpan couldn't help but ask, "Then why don't you just get a divorce?"
When Mrs. Ren heard this, she was obviously stunned for a moment, and the handkerchief in her hand paused slightly. She looked at Lin Panpan and said slowly:
“Divorce is not a glorious thing.
Not to mention that I find it hard to accept, even the elders in my family would never agree to it.
Besides, this isn't good for Guangming either. If people knew his parents were divorced, it would have an impact on him."
Lin Panpan's eyes widened, with an expression of disbelief on her face:
"His father is about to kill him, why are you still worrying about your reputation?
Reputation can’t be eaten, and it can’t save your life!
Besides, didn’t his bastard father act so recklessly just because he knew that you would never divorce him?
If you could be tougher and more ruthless, maybe the situation would be different.
Also, have you ever thought about where the money comes from for him and his mistress to spend their money on wine and women?
Are you still subsidizing them secretly?"
Madam Ren's eyes were somewhat evasive.
“I didn’t deliberately subsidize them, but we had many shops at home and they would often go to the shops to get things.
A lot of things happened afterwards. All my shops were closed and many things in my house were smashed.
Many things in this old house have been stolen. If my father hadn't had so many friends back then, I'm afraid even this house would have been taken away."
Lin Panpan looked at her with some dismay and said:
"They've done this to you, haven't you ever thought of revenge?
Then again, your son has been harmed like this by them, aren't you angry?"
Mrs. Ren said with tears in her eyes:
“I don’t know how to retaliate against them, but I have actually gone to look for them.
But now they have servants at home, and I can’t beat them at all.”
