The Country Maiden: Fields and Leisure

Chapter 175 Divine Doctor



```

Looking at Wang Laozhu and Wang Yongping’s relaxed expression, Wang Yongzhu felt that she had to be the bad guy; after all, she was the charming antagonist, wasn’t she? She had grown accustomed to it.

"Second brother, what about the prescription? Are the herbs on it easy to buy?" Wang Yongzhu actually wanted to ask bluntly if the medicine would be expensive. Considering it was from an Imperial Physician who treats the Emperor and his concubines, he might be used to prescribing precious herbs. In remote places like Qilidun Stone Bridge Town, she feared even having silver might not be enough to buy them.

What was even more pathetic was that she feared their family didn’t even have that much silver to begin with.

Wang Yongan was startled for a moment before responding, "I specifically told the Divine Doctor that our family is of modest means and can’t afford those expensive herbs. The Divine Doctor has always been benevolent to the people, upholding kindness above all, so he prescribed common medicines that are also cheap. Little sister, you don’t have to worry about spending all your dowry!

Wang Yongzhu was stunned, as she had thought the Divine Doctor only cared for wealth. She was unexpectedly sympathetic toward the common folk, which took her by surprise.

However, Wang Yongan’s veiled jest irritated her, and she feigned annoyance, "As a Scholar Master, how can you accuse me falsely? I’m worried about our eldest brother, afraid that our family can’t afford the medicine. By the way, second brother, you said the Divine Doctor is from the Capital City and treats the Emperor and the noble ladies. Can I meet the Divine Doctor and ask what the Emperor looks like? Are all the ladies in the palace as beautiful as fairies?" She exhibited some typical girlish competitiveness and curiosity.

Wang Yongan’s eyes turned friendlier, and he laughed toward Wang Laozhu, "It seems our little sister still has the heart of a child! Upon meeting the Divine Doctor, she doesn’t ask about anything else, but actually wants to know if the palace ladies are beautiful. Well, you won’t be able to see the Divine Doctor. He is an idiosyncratic person, who only came to treat our eldest brother because he owed me a favor. Now that he’s consulted and prescribed the medicine, we can’t keep him here, he’s already gone! Too bad you came back late, or you might have met him if you hadn’t missed us!"

Wang Yongzhu pretended to be disappointed, but deep down, there was a hint of suspicion and caution.

Seeing that she couldn’t get anything more out of Wang Yongan, she stopped asking and went inside the house.

Interestingly, Wang Yongan walked over with a keen interest to peek into the basket Wang Yongzhu was carrying, "What did you go out to buy, little sister?"
