Chapter 250: Not Seeing Patients
The shop assistant, perplexed, twitched the corner of his mouth and turned his gaze to Qin Changlin inside the room.
Qin Changlin waved his hand at him, indicating that he should leave.
The shop assistant showed a gruff demeanor towards Old Madame Huang, saying, "Then please, proceed as you wish!"
"Hey! What’s with that attitude? I am..."
"Madame Gu!" Before she could finish, she saw Qin Changlin approaching with a smile.
Old Madame Huang sized him up for a moment before recognizing him - wasn’t this the inept apprentice who had treated Sanya’s facial injury at her home? In the end, she had berated him so much that he didn’t even dare to charge a consultation fee.
Luckily for Sanya, her facial wound had healed; otherwise, Old Madame Huang would have never spared this quack.
"Ahem!" Old Madame Huang put on airs and pointed at Qin Changlin: "I came here today to invite the doctor to my home for a consultation."
Qin Changlin’s eyebrows twitched as he pointed to a signboard in front of Jisheng Hall and spoke in a gentle voice, "Madame, please look at this!"
Old Madame Huang couldn’t read a single big character. She felt that Qin Changlin was humiliating her and suddenly became enraged, shouting, "What do you mean by this? Are you looking down on me? Let me tell you, my granddaughter is one of the proprietors of Jisheng Hall!"
His shouting reminded Qin Changlin that many old folks in the village were illiterate. He hurriedly offered an apologetic smile, "Oh, Madame, I surely wouldn’t dare to look down on you. I wanted to inform you that our Jisheng Hall has a rule now: the doctor does not make house calls. If there is a patient at home who is too ill to come to us, a small amount of Silver Coin can be paid, and we will send our medical carriage to bring the patient here to stay in the infirmary of Jisheng Hall for treatment. They can leave any time they’re cured. It’s convenient for the patient; it’s convenient for us, isn’t it?"
