Chapter 341: Past and Present, Echoing Across Time

back and glanced, Mu Shi moved her arm slightly, signaling for her not to mind. 。He said, “If what I just said comes true, it must come true for the second young lady.” 。The old lady isn't wrong, I'...Ji Rong didn't expect Ye Wen to ask this. She was stunned for a moment before replying, "The servants of the Ji family put their Lord above everything else. Whatever moves His Majesty, will also move us." 。“After thinking about it again, she shook her head. “It seems like besides your master, there isn’t anything in this world that could move the Emperor.” 。So, our family members are actually quite boring. They're just slaves, but most people have never been to the capital city in their lives. They've never seen the Emperor, and no one gives them orders. 。They live just like ordinary people, experiencing birth, old age, sickness, and death. Their lives are uneventful and unremarkable. 。"

Zhai'er felt uncomfortable listening to this. She wanted to comfort Ji Rong, but thinking about herself, she realized that everyone was actually in the same boat, so there wasn't much point in comforting each other. " 。No mission, just like an ordinary person, nothing wrong with that. 。But Ji Rong thought it was not a good idea. She said, "Auntie told my siblings and me that being able to come to Beijing and follow Fourth Sister is the greatest fortune of our lives. " 。My siblings and I agree! When we grow old, looking back on our lives, it won't just be about Quanzhou. In just sixty years, we've journeyed south and north. 。She arrived here, seeming to have thought of something, and added: “Just now, the master asked if there was anything that could move the Ji family. Moving them might be too much to ask, but there is one thing that the Emperor and our Ji family have been unable to let go of for hundreds of years...” 。Ye Wen sighed softly, "Gei Ling power, human lifespan" 。"

Ji Rong nodded, “People shouldn't only live to sixty. There was an ancestor of the Ji family who once crossed the Endless Sea and barely escaped death. Although he was on the verge of death, he still managed to say that there were humans on other sides of the Endless Sea, living up to a hundred years old, even over a hundred." 。As long as one is healthy and free from pain, they can achieve longevity. 。Therefore, we have been searching for the reason behind the imprisonment of their lifespans. Sadly, after centuries, we remain fruitless. 。Even the endless sea couldn't hold him back anymore..."

The same thing Shili Yuan had said before, Yè Wēn also spoke of his own experience.

Sixty-one years, it's just a cycle of sixty years. How could human lifespan possibly stop at this one cycle That is absolutely impossible. 。So she has always been suspicious, including the disappearance of spiritual power back then, it is very likely that it was being controlled by something. 。It could be a powerful being, or it could be a sage. 。

Then why would this happen If it were human intervention, who could have such immense power

Or… Night Wen furrowed his brows, thinking of something he had always avoided and now had to meticulously examine.

This is the only time-space that connects with later generations, or it is the only time-space that establishes a connection with the Five Meridians. 。In the future, the Five Great Sects underwent a drastic change, and spiritual energy vanished here. 。After the Five Sects perished, the lifespan was imprisoned here. 。If both sides responded to each other, then what connected these two spaces and times How was the time-space channel discovered and opened What did that ancestor called Ye Wu'an do back thenSeeing Ye Wen speak no words, Zhuai’er and Ji Rong also remained silent, silently accompanying her until they reached the door of Shi Family Clinic. 。Bai Chuxiao was helping an elderly woman with a limp out of the clinic. She instructed the woman's daughter on how to care for her patient while waving at the carriage parked in front of the clinic: "Dezi, take this lady home, she lives on Ping'an Lane." 。The woman and her daughter repeatedly thanked him, helped into the carriage by the driver named Dezi. 。 Bai Chuxiao saw the carriage leave, and she just lifted her skirt to go back to the medical hall. But when she looked up, she saw Ye Wenyan walking towards her. 。"Fourth Sister is here" The young girl was delighted to see Ye Wenyan. She instinctively wanted to reach out and take her hand, but then she felt it was inappropriate, so she awkwardly retracted her hand and smiled bashfully as she bowed, "Greetings, Fourth Sister." 。"

Night Wenyan also came to his senses and no longer thought about those things.

" 。Seeing Bai Chuxiao bow to her, she quickly reached out and helped her up, "You're also a sister from the inner city mansion. We can be friends, no need to bow to me." 。"I'm just the granddaughter of a court physician, I don't count as a proper official residence. 。And our Bai family has always upheld propriety for generations. We don't concern ourselves with mundane social customs. 。those who can make us willingly bow to them must be skilled physicians with impeccable character. 。In conclusion, Fourth Sister is the best choice for both inside and outside of Lin'an City. She is the first person I truly admire. 。Hearing this, Ye Wenyan remembered again what the White Physician had said about wanting this granddaughter to follow her. 。Then she asked again, "Have you been staying outside the city this whole time Have you gone back home" Bai Chuxiao replied, "I went back once to see my grandfather, father, and mother. I told them about my desire to stay at the medical hall, and they all agreed. They just don't know if my fourth sister will be willing to have me stay here." 。"

She came to this place and pleaded, "Fourth Sister, take me with you, please Even if I just follow by your side and help out, even as a maid! Just like Zhuier, in the future I'll be called Xiaoner. I and Zhuier will serve you together>>> 。" Young Zhuai's face contorted in disbelief. "Big Sister Bai, don't be ridiculous! I am a slave, destined to serve for my entire life!" 。You are an official's daughter, who would ever hear of an official's daughter coming out to be a maidservant And you want to serve Fourth Sister with me Then I'll have to serve you both! 。"I'll definitely not have you wait on me," Bai Chuxiao patted her chest, "and I'm not that kind of spoiled person. My family doesn't treat me like a pampered eldest sister either." 。As long as I can stay by your side, Fourth Sister, anything is fine. 。"Night Wenyan knocked on her head, figuring out who was serving whom, but she didn't intend to take on an apprentice. She wasn't a real doctor after all, and she hadn't come to this time period to practice medicine. " 。 。She walked into the clinic, without responding to Bai Chuxiao's words. Instead, she carefully observed the clinic. 。Shijia's clinic was at least twice the size of Li's clinic in the inner city. It was about the same size as Li's clinic combined with the fabric shop next door. 。This is also because the outer city itself occupies a large area, so the shops built are naturally much larger. 。Inside the clinic, it was different from when she treated wounded people in the outer city. The doctor's place had two extra seats, and one of them was occupied by Xiao Jue, who was seeing a patient. 。The other two positions, Bai Chuxiao told her, "One is mine. I can also see simple ailments. In order to help Dr. Xiao, I often practice it too." 。"I added a curved rod above my position, look, Sister Four," she pointed upwards, "There's a curtain hanging below the rod. When a female patient comes in and needs an examination, I just pull up the curtain. It's much more convenient this way." 。"And then he pointed to the other side, “That spot is usually empty, but every two weeks my grandfather comes once. When he comes, we let him sit there." 。Perhaps it was because the imperial physicians were well-respected, and my grandfather was old and looked very trustworthy. So whenever my grandfather came to town, there would be many more patients visiting him. 。Yè Wēn Yán didn't expect that Dr. Bai would still have this in mind, and for a moment, he had a few more considerations about what happened to Bai Chú Xiǎo. 。After all these years, the imperial physicians in the palace never thought to come to an outer city clinic to see patients. Now, Dr. Xiao has arrived, and he's accompanied by an elder physician named Bai. 。She can't play dumb, they're clearly targeting her. She has to take responsibility for this situation. 。Besides the treatment area, the place where medicinal herbs are arranged has also changed. Some of them are traditional Chinese medicines used in traditional prescriptions to treat common ailments. 。There is also a section with new kinds of medicinal herbs. They are all in bottles filled with pills, which Night Wen has nurtured with flower essence and have miraculous effects. 。Bai Chuxiao continued to explain to her: "The pills are mainly used to treat seriously injured people. They're only given when someone is critically wounded and about to die." 。

As for anything else that Dr. Xiao and my grandfather can cure, we would be reluctant to waste the pills.

I don't know how much silver to sell these pills for. I heard from people in the inner city that they sell for one hundred taels each, but my grandfather said one hundred taels is too cheap; selling them for ten thousand taels would still be worth it. 。But even so, after all, even one hundred taels of silver is something that most people in the outer city can't afford. 。"So, how are you selling the pills now"Bai Chuxiao told her, "Now it's one hundred taels for those who have money, and for those who don't have money, the Shi family will temporarily subsidize them." 。The Shi family has spent a lot of silver these days. 。"When the little girl heard this, she asked again, "Isn't the medical hall just Shi's family Using their own medicine, who do they paste it on" Ye Wenyan only then remembered that there were also Shi's siblings in the medical hall. He looked around but didn't see anyone. So he asked Bai Chuxiao, "Where are the two siblings from the Shi family Have they come to take care of things here" Bai Chuxiao nodded, "They've all..." 。Qin'er is in charge of the accounts, while Li'er brother is responsible for purchasing medicinal herbs. 。Today, Wei Gege went out of the city to inspect new medicinal materials. Qin'er is in the back hall. Sister Si, do you want me to call her" Ye Wenyan thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay" 。But no need to call, let's just go see in the back room. 。A group of people walked back to the inner hall. During this time, Xiao Jue looked over here several times, seemingly eager to come over and talk. However, he was preoccupied with a patient and couldn't leave. 。Ye Wenyan said to Ji Rong, "You go tell Dr. Xiao that there's no need to rush. I'll stay outside the city for a while and wait for him to finish seeing today's patients before I talk to him." 。 "

Ji Rong immediately went 。Ye Wen, carrying Zhu'er, followed Bai Chuxiao around the front hall and into a room on the side. 。Bai Chuxiao: "This is where Xun'er keeps accounts. All the medical hall's income and expenses are recorded by her. Before, she would report monthly to the Shi family, but at the end of the first month, they stopped taking care of it. From now on, only Sister Si will review the medical hall's accounts, the Shi family won't check anymore." 。By the way, there's also the money for those pills earlier. The Shi family's subsidy has all been deposited into the medical hall's account. It was real gold and silver delivered, not a single ounce missing. 。“ The two entered the house. Shi Ruoshun was overjoyed to see Ye Wenyan, “Fourth sister has finally arrived! I was just thinking, if I didn't get to see fourth sister today, I would have gone to the inner city..." 。"There's something I really need to discuss with Fourth Sister..." my grandfather and father fought for with their lives. Now that they're gone, I have the responsibility to continue protecting it for them." 。You all enjoy the fruits of their labor, if you don't kn...
