71 That’s A Scamr
Hearing her words, Xia Wan felt a little helpless. She didn’t expect that soone would be selling and promoting fake dicine in this era.
She didn’t hide it and said directly, “Your father-in-law might have been deceived. According to your body’s condition, you couldn’t have taken ginseng. It should be a kind of wintercrow root that is very similar to ginseng.
“If it’s real ginseng, there will naturally be many benefits after taking it,” Wang Yao said. “The saying that it can prolong one’s life is not false. However, this wintercrow root is harmful to the human body. It carries so toxins, and if taken for a prolonged period, it will cause organ failure.
Sister Hong’s face turned pale when she heard this, but she still asked with uncertainty, “Girl, are you telling the truth? Then why didn’t the doctor find out?”
Xia Wan knew that the equipnt in this era was not advanced enough. If they did not accurately examine Sister Hong’s body, they would not be able to diagnose her condition from her description.
However, it would be disrespectful to the doctors if she said it directly. She couldn’t say it was because the doctors were inexperienced, right?
No matter what, that was a doctor from a proper hospital, while she was just the granddaughter of a village doctor.
Therefore, Xia Wan said humbly, “The doctors in the hospital might not be able to see what’s in your body without the help of dical equipnt. My grandfather is a traditional Chinese dicine practitioner, and he doesn’t use those.
“Of course, he has also encountered your situation before. I happened to overhear about it, so I’m very familiar.”
Sister Hong imdiately looked at Xia Wan gratefully. “Thank you. How should I address you, benefactor?”
However, after Xia Wan diagnosed her problem, Sister Hong imdiately changed the way she addressed Xia Wan.
“My na is Xia Wan. You can call whatever you want, Sister Hong. I can also prescribe you so dicine. In the future, don’t take any fake ginseng.”
As Xia Wan spoke, she asked for a pen and paper from Sister Hong and started writing the prescription.
As for the gang that sold the fake herbs, there was no need to expose them. First, she had no status, and her words carried no authority. If she did, the gang would hate her and might take revenge on her family. She could only save them when she saw them.
However, Xia Wan still rembered this matter in her heart. She asked Sister Hong in detail about the ti and place where the seller usually sold his goods.
When Sister Hong heard her question, she replied, “That master… no, that scamr doesn’t co here often. He seems to co only once a month, and he sells a small amount of dicine each ti. According to him, his dicine is precious, and not just anyone can buy it. The more he does this, the more people want to buy it.”
Xia Wan nodded. “If you take a small amount over a long period of ti, it won’t be so easy to notice. Sister Hong, you’ve had a violent reaction, and it has sothing to do with your body. I’ll also prescribe so dicine for nourishnt. You’ll be fine after taking it for a month.”
The gratitude in Sister Hong’s eyes deepened. “Thank you, Xia Wan. You’re really our family’s benefactor. I’ll return the money you just gave to you now. Take these clothes as a gift from .”
As she spoke, Sister Hong was about to take out the money but was stopped by Xia Wan. “There’s no need, Sister Hong. If you’re willing to pay for my treatnt, you can pay according to the dical fees. We’ll be doing business again, so you can’t mix them up. Otherwise, if I co to you to buy clothes in the future, you’ll always think that I’ve cured your illness on account of the favor you owe , so you should give less or not take my money.
“If it’s just a few dollars, you might not feel anything. But if we cooperate more and more in the future and your losses reach hundreds or thousands, you might not be grateful to . Instead, you might feel that you’ve suffered a loss.
“Sister Hong, I’m not saying you’re an ungrateful person. I just feel that everything must have principles. I’ll prescribe you dicine today, and Sister Hong, you’ll pay for my services. I’ll buy clothes from you so other day, and you’ll offer the lowest price you can afford. We’ll both profit from each other. This is the only way we can work together in the long run.”
Xia Wan’s words were very sincere, and they touched Sister Hong.
