Chapter 208 - 204: Seeking a Famous Doctor_1



Jiang Quan still couldn’t understand.

So Yingbao broke it down for him.

“That man ordered fifty boxes of cakes in one go, asking you to deliver them to Feihe Building. Then he would find various excuses to borrow money from us, promising to settle it all in Feihe Building. After you lend him money, he takes it and runs. That’s one possibility.”

“If he can’t borrow money from us, the goods you delivered to Feihe Building will be confiscated and smuggled out from a backdoor. That’s the second possibility.”

“Thirdly, if you lend him money and give the goods to the clerk you first met, you will end up with nothing. When you go to Feihe Building for an explanation, you’ll find out that the proprietor is actually someone else and the clerk who had contact with you has disappeared.”

Jiang Quan was stunned. “So, are there several of them involved in this fraud?”

“Yes, they are specifically scamming new and inexperienced shops like ours.”

Yingbao continued, “So regardless of the size of the business in the future, I will not entertain any that require credit.”

Jiang Quan broke out in a cold sweat.

If he had fallen for it just now, he wouldn’t only lose dozens of taels of silver but might also lose dozens of boxes of cakes.

“Yingbao, how do you know all this?” Jiang Quan asked suspiciously, finally feeling the gravity of the situation.

His younger cousin acted just like a street fortune teller, she saw through everything.

Yingbao ignored him.

Her silence was more meaningful than words, better to let him guess.

At night, when Yingbao escorted Jiang Jie back to the county government, she gave him three boxes of chestnut cakes, three boxes of homemade medicated pills, and three bottles of rejuvenating water. He was to keep one set, with the remaining divided between Wu Daozi and Mr. Wu.

In the following days, Yingbao and Sister Dani turned all the chestnuts into cakes and packed them into boxes.

Her only female patient, Dongmei, made another visit. This time, Dongmei looked even healthier.

“I will be able to accompany my father on stage tomorrow.” Dongmei bowed respectfully to Yingbao, “Thanks once again to Doctor Yingbao for saving my life.”

Yingbao hastily supported Dongmei to prevent her from bowing down, “It’s nothing, really.”

Dongmei looked around the shop, smiled and asked, “Does Doctor Yingbao want me to promote your shop?”

“That’d be great.” Yingbao was eager, “Dongmei, how much silver should we pay you each month?”

“I don’t want silver.” Dongmei smiled, “As long as Doctor Yingbao gives me a jar of Rootless Water each month.”

The Rootless Water not only made her healthier, but her parents also improved significantly after drinking it.

Their complexion improved, and even their mobility seemed better.

She and her father, due to their years of storytelling, had rough voices. Now, not only were their voices clearer, they could even perform three shows in a row without their voices getting hoarse. It seemed that the Rootless Water was a good thing indeed.

And no other places were selling it, showcasing the extraordinary medical skills of Doctor Yingbao who managed to concoct such a magical water.

Yingbao immediately nodded in agreement, “Alright then.”

It’s just Pupil Spring water, of which she had plenty. She would fill a big jar for her later.

Dongmei took a look around the shop, memorizing the prices of each item, then asked, “Are these all the items that you have in stock? Do you have any others?”

“Yes, we do!” Yingbao took out a prepared product introduction, “Our shop specializes in Qinchuan County’s specialty products. The golden and snow mushrooms are our main products. You can see their prices and effects here.”

She had initially planned to hire a singer to promote her shop, but she didn’t need to do that now.

With Dongmei’s current beautiful appearance and sweet voice, she believed that she would soon become popular and her influence would be no lesser than that of a singer.

Dongmei read through the product introduction and asked, “Can I take this home and study it slowly?”

“Of course, of course,” Yingbao said. She would naturally wholeheartedly support Dongmei, who worked so diligently.

“Then I’ll return home.” After carefully folding the paper and tucking it into her sleeve, Dongmei announced her departure.

“Wait a minute!” Yingbao hurriedly ran into the kitchen, brought out a large jar of water, and handed it to Dongmei, “Your reward.”

Dongmei gave a small smile, thanked her, and left carrying the jar.

Jiang Cheng and Jiang Quan were simply dumbfounded.

“Yingbao, are you sure that Dongmei won’t discover the trick with the water?” queried Jiang Quan.

This time, Jiang Quan had personally seen his younger cousin scoop a jar of water from the kitchen water vat and then give it to the girl.

Yingbao snorted, ignoring her two older cousins.

How dare they question her, Yingbao the Fairly!

Did they not notice anything these past few days? Not to mention Jiang Cheng, whose face looked more and more handsome and refined, even Jiang Quan’s dark skin seemed a bit lighter.

These two fools had never questioned why the water vat was always full. But now, they dared to doubt whether the jar of water she gave to Dongmei was real.

“Send me back home tomorrow,” Yingbao said, “Our home’s golden mushrooms and snow mushrooms should be ready for harvest soon, and Second Brother should go back and get the chestnuts.”

Jiang Quan nodded, “We should indeed go back.” He then turned to ask Dani, “What about you?”

Having eaten and played to her heart’s content, and having thoroughly explored the county, Dani decided it was time to return home. “I’ll go back as well.”

Before she returned, she wanted to buy some gifts for Huzi and for her father and stepmother as well.

Thus, Dani and her younger cousin embarked on a massive shopping spree in the county, purchasing a pile of trinkets and novelties.

Yingbao, on the other hand, went to the large pharmacy to buy a large amount of medicinal herbs for her own medicine preparation.

The next day, Jiang Quan drove the carriage to send the two cousins away.

Before she left, Yingbao gave her older cousin two more bottles of medicated pills – one for healing and invigorating, and another for treating internal and external injuries.

“Now that we’re gone, you need to be careful. Normally, you can let Xiaohei roam freely, it won’t run away anymore.” Yingbao instructed, “If thugs ever come to the door again, don’t confront them, go straight to Patrol Post and find Uncle Jin.”

“Alright. You too should take care on the road,” Jiang Cheng waved as he watched the carriage leave.

Once the carriage left the city gate, it sped along the official road.

The Red Date Horse galloped vigorously, pulling the carriage at a breakneck speed.

Halfway through the journey, they stopped to rest. Yingbao fed the Red Date Horse some Pupil Spring water and some wheat.

At noon, the carriage finally arrived in the South Slope.

“Yingbao, you’re finally back!”

Dani lifted her younger cousin down from the carriage and said mysteriously, “A few visitors came to our house this morning looking for you to heal them. If you didn’t come back today, they would have gone to the county to find you.”

Yingbao blinked her eyes, “Who?” Who was so insightful?

“I don’t recognize them, but someone said that it was Chen Tiantian who told them you can cure patients.”

Dani: “Uncle was very upset and unless Mr. Li, the doctor, was also with them, he would have kicked them out of the village.”

Upon hearing Chen Tiantian was involved, Yingbao lost interest immediately.

Carrying her medicine box, she walked into her courtyard, where she saw Aunt welcoming her from the kitchen and gesturing her over.

Yingbao understood, and she entered the kitchen with Dahuang dancing happily at her side.

“There are guests in the living room talking to your grandfather.” Aunt Spring passed the medicine box to her daughter while adding wood to the fire for the tea.

Yingbao asked curiously, “Who are they?”

As Aunt Spring added more firewood to burn the tea, she replied, “They claimed to have come due to your reputation. Hmm, they seem to be from the Prefecture City, seeking treatment for a child in his teens.”
