Chapter 273 I don't recognize
"Oh, Doctor, you've come to the right place. I used to be a matchmaker. My family is from a small town. There's no one in my family that I don't know, and there's nothing I don't know about them."
The old woman patted her chest, indicating that she knew everything.
What interesting stories would you like to hear?
"Well, let's start by talking about why there isn't a single doctor in your small town, and why everyone trusts this outsider, Brother Xue. Also, how do you remember so clearly that it started five years ago?"
Wu You: Is Li Lianhua's focus really that peculiar? He managed to find such a unique angle.
"Oh, I remember it so clearly because my brother's in-laws run a pharmacy and have been doctors for generations. His father and son are also good doctors, and many people in the small town come to his house for treatment."
“But five years ago, my brother’s in-laws went up the mountain to collect herbs and encountered a torrential rain. The mountain was wet and the road was slippery, so they fell down and died.”
"Not long after, the brother's son-in-law was reading medical books in the pharmacy late at night when he accidentally knocked over a candle, causing a fire. In order to save the medicinal herbs, he stayed in the fire."
"At that time, at that time, I should have... stopped... Brother Hua." Wang Bashi also regretted it from the side.
“His family values medicinal herbs more than their own lives. How could you stop them? Didn’t you see that his clothes were torn to shreds?”
The old woman comforted Wang Bashi with one sentence and continued, "Ever since his two elders passed away, their family has fallen on hard times."
"Two people in the same family have experienced this repeatedly, and I didn't report it to the authorities. What did they say?"
Li Lianhua: There seems to be something wrong with this.
"It was reported, so why wasn't it reported? But we couldn't find any other evidence, so we could only close the case as an accidental death."
"In the following year, many doctors in the city experienced various misfortunes, leaving some doctors who were completely unable to diagnose themselves."
"When people in the city didn't know where to go for medical treatment, this Doctor Xue came to the city. Although he was from out of town, his medical skills were quite good, so everyone went to him for treatment."
The old woman then remarked, "It's fortunate that Doctor Xue came to our small town and settled down; otherwise, many people in our town would have died from illness."
"So that's how it is. Doctor Xue's arrival is truly timely." Li Lianhua nodded in praise, then changed the subject.
"By the way, ma'am, can we ask you about someone? He is the elder brother of my fellow disciple. He has difficulty walking now, and we came here specifically to find him."
"Dr. Xue arrived just in time, and we are all very grateful to him. Doctor Na, who are you looking for? I'm not bragging, but anyone who has been to this small town knows me."
"I never knew you had such skills, ma'am. Have you ever heard of someone named Lian Quan?"
Unaware of any taboo surrounding these words, the once talkative old woman fell silent upon hearing Li Lianhua's words, shaking her head to indicate that she did not know.
Wang Bashi, who was standing next to him, also shook his head.
Seeing their actions, Li Lianhua changed her approach: "Then what about this Yellow Springs Palace?"
Unexpectedly, the old woman continued to shake her head: "I don't know her."
"Auntie, you just said you have a very good memory, that you know your ancestors well, how come you've forgotten them all?" It's obvious that you're hiding something and not telling the truth.
