Chapter 1426: Chapter 1426: So Expensive It Makes You Want to Vomit 1 Chapter 1426: Chapter 1426: So Expensive It Makes You Want to Vomit 1 Xiao Chonghuan hypocritically said, “It’s still Su Qingyue talking about ‘credit’.”
While he praised her verbally, in his heart, he had already chopped her into pieces dozens of tis.
“If Qing’er says so, then let it be,” Chang Haotian shook his head, “Forty days without making money, Qingyue, next ti you should still throw out this kind of custor.”
“I’ll just work on the signboard for now, it doesn’t matter if I don’t make any money.” Su Qingyue smiled and asked, “Master Xiao, to treat ***’s angina with 100,000 taels of gold, what do you think… Do you feel that *** is worth the money, are you willing to foot the bill?”
“Just a quack doctor,” Xiao Chonghuan stubbornly retorted, “I will still seek soone more capable.”
When Chang Haotian heard him disparaging Su Qingyue, he was about to make trouble, but he was stopped by Su Qingyue, “Master Chang, don’t stoop to an old man’s level, his family is poor, ‘first-class on the outside, hollow at the core.’ It’s normal that he can’t afford it. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave first.”
After taking a few steps, she glanced sympathetically at Shen Yun, “Lady Xiao, I truly sympathize with you.”
Shen Yun understood that this ant she was being mocked for having been with Xiao Chonghuan for decades, and in the end, he was too stingy to pay for dical treatnt.
After all the outsiders in the yard had left, Xiao Chonghuan ordered, “Shuang’er, go and summon so people I have arranged at the inn over here to clean up the dead bodies in the yard. Then, reassign soone to guard the safety of and my wife.”
“Yes,” Shuang’er complied and left.
Seeing Shen Yun’s displeasure, Xiao Chonghuan said, “Lady, don’t believe Su Qingyue’s nonsense. Would I really hesitate to spend 100,000 taels of gold for your treatnt? It’s just that Su Qingyue has no real skill. Her dical skill is poor, and besides, we’ve had our differences with her. Even if we paid her, she might not sincerely treat you.”
“I understand. If that wretched Su Qingyue got her hands on Master’s 100,000 taels of gold, but instead poisoned , then it would be disastrous. It’s better not to let her treat at all,” Shen Yun replied with polite words, but inside, she still felt very cold.
Indeed, a sky-high price of 100,000 taels of gold was enough to make one spit blood.
Yet, the Xiao Family could still afford it.
If her husband truly was willing to spend such a fortune to treat her angina, she wouldn’t hesitate over money, she would have stopped him.
But his reluctance to spend money was a completely different matter.
Su Qingyue might be arrogant and presumptuous, but the Seven-Day Soul Breaking Powder that Chang Haotian once suffered from couldn’t be cured by any renowned doctor, yet she cured it.
Xiao Qinghe, a doctor at New Moon dicine Hall, had been studying dicine for less than a year, and his dical skill was already above average.
She had people inquire, and Xiao Qinghe’s dical skill was taught by Su Qingyue.
Nowadays, New Moon dicine Hall carries the reputation of Unnad’s established hall of dicine, and despite only having Xiao Qinghe and another doctor taking turns to see patients, there was still an endless stream of them.
As the saying goes, ‘Like master, like apprentice.’
If Su Qingyue wasn’t skilled, then Xiao Qinghe’s dical skill wouldn’t have improved so quickly.
Looking at the face of her husband, which had been with her for decades, she had just sneaked out from the side room next to the bed where the two of them slept, coming out with her maid, Shuang’er.
And the excuse for being stingy with dical expenses was so righteously put.
Shen Yun’s body felt so uncomfortable that she stumbled; she forced a smile and changed the subject, “Master, do you really plan to pay Su Qingyue the food and accommodation fees of 115,000 taels after three days? I did buy quite a lot of things recently and intentionally racked up 40,000-50,000 taels of silver on Su Qingyue’s account. My original intention was to gift her things worth the original price of 30,000 taels; I couldn’t be losing money. Initially, I thought that what was worth 30,000 taels at original price, actually discounted as second-rate could only fetch a little over 10,000 taels. To my surprise, Su Qingyue saw through it and returned everything to . By putting so many silver taels on Su Qingyue’s account, she wouldn’t be able to settle accounts when the ti cos, and would be forced to sell her residence, to sell off forty shops to pay off her debts. This would completely destroy her assets in one fell swoop. Never did I expect that wretched woman to be aware of everything.”
