Chapter 278 Things Have Changed 3
After the old servant left, Master Lin II sighed and said to Father Lin: "I returned the indentures of the other servants to them and let them make a living on their own. Only Old He and his wife have no children and nowhere to go, so I let them stay."
Father Lin knew that he was thinking of the heyday of the Lin family. He comforted his brothers, "The situation has improved now. In the future, our Lin family will regain the glory of our ancestors."
After finding out the current situation of the Lin family, Lin's mother couldn't wait to ask the Lin clan members about her mother's family.
Lin's mother's two sisters-in-law told her that her mother had passed away due to illness, but her brother's family was still alive. Although more than half of their property was lost, it was still better off than the Lin family.
They also said that when the Lin family fell into trouble, Lin's mother and younger brother had secretly passed on information to them more than once, and afterwards they continued to send money and materials to support the Lin family's direct branch, helping them overcome many difficulties.
Mother Lin heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. "It's good that you're still alive. It's good that you're still alive."
Compared with the miserable situation of the Lin family, Lin's mother's only expectation for her own family is "safety".
Although based on her understanding of Lin's father, he will definitely take revenge on those who attacked the Lin family in the past, but no matter how cruel his revenge is, the dead will never come back.
Just as she was thinking, she heard Lin's father waving Bai Jingzhou over, "My student is a doctor, I'll ask him to check your pulse."
Lin's father has fully witnessed Bai Jingzhou's medical skills. Bai Jingzhou cured all the patients and injured people in Baijia Village and Jiajia Village who could not be cured by others.
Upon learning that his relatives were in poor health, Lin's father immediately thought of asking Bai Jingzhou to help them with their treatment again.
Now that they had almost finished talking about everything, Father Lin immediately called Bai Jingzhou over.
Master Lin Er was the first to extend his arm to show his cooperation, but he also did not forget to give Lin's father a heads-up in advance, "We have already seen the two best doctors in Huairen County, but it's useless and they can't cure it."
In his opinion, Bai Jingzhou was so young, it was impossible for him to be more skilled than the experienced doctors.
However, Father Lin said, "Don't underestimate this child. Although he is still young, his medical skills are very impressive."
Everyone looked at each other, half believing and half doubting. Hearing this name, they couldn't imagine how skilled a person called "child" could be in medicine.
Father Lin chuckled, "What do you mean by that expression? Don't you know that age has no necessary correlation with medical skills? I have personally witnessed this child's medical skills, and I can guarantee that his medical skills are no less than those of the famous doctors in the state capital."
Father Lin had witnessed Bai Jingzhou treating the sick and injured in Baijia Village and Jiajia Village many times. He would not mention those with minor illnesses or injuries, but only those villagers with difficult and complicated diseases that other doctors would only ask their families to "prepare for funeral affairs", or those villagers who were seriously injured and had a high probability of dying from wound ulceration and pus. Bai Jingzhou was able to either cure them or control their conditions to a large extent. This was very impressive.
He first told his family a few cases that proved Bai Jingzhou's superb medical skills, and then said: "He has another famous teacher in medicine, but unfortunately he is a mysterious master who lives in seclusion. Not to mention you and me, even the child's parents are unwilling to show up to see him."
After Father Lin's explanation, everyone immediately became excited about Bai Jingzhou's medical skills.
Bai Jingzhou smiled and bowed to everyone present once again.
Everyone chatted with him for a few words, and then began to line up to wait for Bai Jingzhou to diagnose their pulse.
Bai Jingzhou carefully examined each patient one by one. After each patient was examined, he would carefully write down the pulse report and then consider a treatment plan based on the report.
He came with the Lin family to look for their relatives, so it was impossible for him to carry all the herbs with him. After checking the pulses of all the Lin family members who needed to be checked, Bai Jingzhou said to Lin's father: "Wait until the county hospital opens tomorrow, and I will go buy some herbs first."
Forget about it today. Even if they set out to return to the county town within half an hour, the time left for them would not be enough for him to carefully select the herbs.
After hearing what he said, Father Lin also noticed that it was getting late. He stood up and said goodbye to the tribesmen, "Then we will go back to the county first. When Jingzhou prepares the medicinal materials tomorrow morning, I will bring all of them to Linjia Village."
The Lin family members reluctantly saw off Lin's father and others.
On the way, Gu Wenxuan took out a small notebook and handed it to Lin's father, "Grandpa Lin, come, write the names of your family's enemies here."
Father Lin was puzzled and alert, "What do you want to do?"
Gu Wenxuan smiled and said, "Investigate. Find evidence of their violations of law and discipline and make them suffer the consequences. Or find out their weaknesses and handles and give them a taste of their own medicine."
Father Lin raised his eyebrows. He thought Gu Wenxuan was going to use force directly...if not, he would be relieved.
He said, "No, now is not the time."
At present, the Lin family is small and can only do so much. Instead of being stuck in hatred, it is better to work together to move forward. As long as they stand high enough, they will have plenty of opportunities to slowly clean up those families who have taken advantage of the Lin family before.
He briefly explained his thoughts, and then earnestly warned Gu Wenxuan and the others not to act rashly, "You are all still young and have a bright future. Don't act impulsively because of anger and get yourself into trouble for a few mice."
Seeing that he really had it all planned out and was not just lying to them, Gu Wenxuan nodded to show that she understood, "Okay then, I won't interfere."
Gu Wenxuan didn't think there was anything wrong with Lin's father holding a grudge. He who provokes first is the meanest. Since those people attacked the Lin family first, then the Lin family turning around and dealing with them is just the retribution they deserve.
The group returned to the inn. The Lin family, who were in a very emotional state, had dinner, washed up and went to bed early. Gu Wenxuan and others briefly talked to Fang Youfu and others who stayed behind about the results of the Lin family's search for relatives and their itinerary for tomorrow, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
Early the next morning, after washing up and packing their luggage, everyone put their belongings on the carriage and had a hearty breakfast together in the inn. Bai Jingzhou, accompanied by Brother Lin, Gu Wenxuan, Fang Youfu and Fang Yougui, went to the Jishidiang Clinic in Huairen County, which had a good reputation, to get medicine for the Lin family members.
Originally, Bai Jingzhou had no plan to take the Lin family with him, but Lin's father insisted that eldest brother Lin go with him to pay, otherwise he would block the door and not let Bai Jingzhou and the others leave.
Bai Jingzhou and his men couldn't use force against an old man, especially since he was their teacher. Bai Jingzhou had no choice but to agree to take Brother Lin with him.
