Chapter 138: 106 Treatment, Cunning Little Monk (Two updates combined) _2
Gu Jiao gave it to him and he asked, “What kind of iron tools do you want to order? How much?”
Gu Jiao handed him the list.
He handed it to the coachman, “You will take this to the iron shop later and get it done!”
“Yes!” The coachman took the documents and the list.
“Let’s talk on the carriage.” The second shopkeeper said to Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao got onto the carriage with him.
“First, let’s go to Huichun Hall.” The second shopkeeper ordered the coachman.
The coachman agreed and whipped the horse carriage into motion.
He would first drop the two of them at the medical hall, then go to the iron shop.
The second shopkeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead and sighed, “A patient showed up. Quite a tricky one. I wouldn’t have bothered you if I could handle it myself. Now I owe you a favor.”
Gu Jiao paused before she said, “It’s alright. Consider this my consultation for this month.”
The second shopkeeper was stunned, “Huh? Aren’t you going to Young Master Gu’s place anymore?”
Gu Jiao nodded her head, “Yes, I am not going.”
He is living in my house after all.
Gu Yan went to school today. In the absence of Gu Yan, the second shopkeeper only met Granny Gu. Naturally, he was unaware that Gu Yan had already moved into Gu Jiao’s house.
The second shopkeeper looked thoughtful and nodded his head, “I saw that Young Master Gu’s condition has improved greatly. It’s alright if you don’t go this time. You can visit him next month.”
Gu Jiao didn’t say anything.
In no time, they arrived at the medical hall.
Only after Gu Jiao entered the grand hall did she understand why the second shopkeeper was so anxious to find her.
All the patients had been cleared out of the medical hall. All of the doctors, assistants, including Shopkeeper Wang, were restrained by a group of guards dressed in brocade. The grand hall was filled with a dangerous yet tranquil atmosphere.
A young man in his early twenties with handsome eyebrows and cool features walked up, a precious sword was hanging at his waist.
He coldly glanced at the second shopkeeper, the corner of his eyes sweeping past Gu Jiao yet he didn’t seem to pay her much attention. “Where’s the doctor you invited?”
The second shopkeeper tried to remain calm as he glanced at Gu Jiao, “This is her.”
The young guard frowned, “An ugly girl?”
Gu Jiao had changed into the clothes made by the Yao family, although they were not ragged, they still looked like commoner clothes. It was hard for others to associate her with a life-saving doctor.
Especially since she was still so young.
“It’s her!” The second shopkeeper wiped his cold sweat, “She is the most skilled doctor in our Huichun Hall, if even she can’t cure it, then no one in this town can.”
