Chapter 1100: 031 Wang Dahai
The Hall of Salvation in the southern part of the Capital city was very famous among the poor citizens, not only because Doctor Wang was skilled in medicine, but also because of his character. He was willing to treat anyone who couldn’t afford to pay for their medical expenses and would even give them some good herbs for free.
However, unlike his generosity toward ordinary people, Doctor Wang was unyielding when it came to wealthy families, even to an extreme extent. No matter what kind of person you were, if you were rich and sought his treatment, he always refused to treat you.
Listening to the situation Du Ruo had learned from outside, Xiao Linshuang was sulking in the carriage and didn’t want to get out, complaining continuously, "Master did it on purpose, finding me such a difficult person to deal with. Never mind learning from him, I’m certain that the moment I step through the entrance of the Hall of Salvation, that Doctor Wang will chase me out with a broom!"
With another sigh, Xiao Linshuang buried her face in the soft cushion and let out a muffled groan.
Seeing her childlike demeanor, Du Ruo and Lian Qiao couldn’t help but laugh. However, the problem with Doctor Wang was indeed very tricky.
Looking at his young mistress miserably, Du Ruo grinned and decided to disclose another piece of information he had heard, "Not only is Doctor Wang unfriendly to wealthy families, he is also very ..."
No need to finish the sentence, Xiao Linshuang waved her hand, having guessed what Du Ruo was about to say—it was nothing more than not dealing with other doctors!
"This Wang Dahai, how arrogant!" Xiao Linshuang pouted and furrowed her brow, feeling as if all the enthusiasm she had brought with her was ground away to nothing.
Wang Dahai was indeed Doctor Wang’s name. Perhaps to console her young mistress, Lian Qiao blinked and quickly joined in criticizing, "Exactly, not treating the wealthy might still be seen as not currying favor with the powerful, but attacking his own colleagues is too dismissive. Does he think he’s better than others just because he has some medical skills?"
Du Ruo nodded in agreement, "Exactly, I heard that previously, a well-respected old doctor who greatly admired Doctor Wang even rushed from the Capital to meet him. Guess what he did, Miss? Hmph, he stubbornly closed his clinic for three whole days and nights, just to avoid meeting that old doctor. What does he really think? Does he not know what respecting one’s teachers and their teachings means?"
Hearing their conversation, an idea flashed too quickly through Xiao Linshuang’s mind for her to grasp it. However, Wang Dahai’s excessive behavior was indeed outrageous. Could it be that her master intended for her to witness this precisely because of his outrageousness?
Seeing Xiao Linshuang with a stern face lost in thought, Du Ruo and Lian Qiao exchanged glances and both tried to persuade her to go back.
"Miss, perhaps you should not go to the Hall of Salvation. Even if you went, it’s sure you wouldn’t learn anything useful."
"Yes, Miss, I heard there’s a decent pharmacy in the city. Just spend some silver, and they guarantee you’ll have patients to examine, and you can watch the doctors treat ailments too."
"What a great idea! Miss, just listen to us. The old master doesn’t leave his home, so he won’t know where you’ve been observing."
Listening to Du Ruo and Lian Qiao muttering back and forth, Xiao Linshuang felt somewhat irritable but still a voice in her heart admonished her, since she had chosen the path of medicine, she must not shy away just because of one or two people.
Making up her mind, Xiao Linshuang patted her small hand and declared firmly, "Master sent me to learn from Doctor Wang for a reason. Alright, even if I am chased out with a stick, I accept it! And besides ..."
Xiao Linshuang chuckled slyly, a cunning sparkle in her eyes, "I might not necessarily be chased out!"
A quarter of an hour later, the entrance of the Hall of Salvation suddenly witnessed a little girl in patched-up clothes. The girl had her hair tied in two pigtails, her face and even her hair dusty, looking quite dirty. Yet, her eyes were exceptionally bright, sparkling and lively.
Indeed, this grimy little girl was Xiao Linshuang.
She waved to Du Ruo and Lian Qiao in the carriage not too far away, signaling them to drive the carriage farther away, then hung her little face showing a timid expression and quietly stopped at the entrance of the Hall of Salvation.
