The senior manager agreed and ran away. After a while, Doctor Huang and two other famous doctors were invited. He heard that Miss Gao's old illness relapsed. After taking the pulse and looking at his tongue, they all shook their heads together. The three of them had treated Miss Gao before, but there was no good solution. Doctor Huang sighed and said to Mr. Gao: "Old Master, we are really powerless to do anything about the lady's illness. You should ask the famous doctor who treated the lady before. Goodbye." The three of them looked ashamed and didn't even ask for the medical fee, so they said goodbye.

After hearing this, Old Master Gao stayed on the spot. Old Master Gao's original wife and second concubine had already received the news, so they got up in a panic and rushed over. They happened to see the three doctors saying goodbye with shame and left. They couldn't help but feel even more panic and looked at Old Master Gao together.

The third aunt cried and said to Old Master Gao: "Or why don't we go and invite that waste... Oh no, that Master Lu, please come and have a look?" Because now he has something to ask for, he dare not call him a waste.

When Old Master Gao heard this, he snorted and said, "Look at the situation first. Are there any medicine he prescribed yesterday?"

The executive hurriedly laughed and said, "No, the waste only has enough medicine to take once. I had finished it yesterday and didn't have a drop left. Although this waste is a waste, it is really cunning and has not left any prescriptions. Otherwise, we will take medicine according to the prescription, won't it be done? No need to ask him."

Old Master Gao said, "Look at the situation first." After that, he whipped his sleeves and stepped out of his daughter's boudoir to the study.

He sat there blankly without any idea, not knowing what to do, and took the book to read, but couldn't read a word. Although he was not by his daughter's side, he was still worried about it.

Old Master Gao thought that his daughter's illness might get better after one day of rest, but unexpectedly, in the afternoon, her condition became heavier and he could not help but ask the doctor to see him. However, after the doctor came, he shook his head and said there was nothing he could do. They had seen Mr. Gao's daughter before, and they used the prescription, and they were helpless and dared not prescribe the prescription. Similarly, they did not collect the medical fee, so they said goodbye.

As a result, Old Master Gao was even more depressed. At night, his daughter's painful voice became heavier and he tossed and turned in the bed and kept shouting all night. The next day, his condition became even heavier. However, almost all the doctors in Tongzhou City had invited him, and he had to go to the capital to invite him. But Old Master Gao also knew that even the imperial physician had been invited, but he could not cure his daughter's illness. Now he would be afraid that the result would be the same when he invited him.

This night was tortured by Old Master Gao. He kept his wife and concubine by his daughter all night, listening to his daughter's wailing and pain, tossing and turning on the bed, but he couldn't touch her, and it hurt so much. Old Master Gao and his wife and concubine didn't know what to do, so he struggled until dawn the next day.

The third aunt cried so much that her eyes were swollen. Finally, she bit her teeth and asked Mr. Gao to invite Mr. Lu to see his daughter.

The day before, Mr. Gao still had hopes to see his daughter slowly recovering from health. After this day and night, he completely understood that the disease would not be cured for no reason. If he did not receive the right treatment, it would only become more and more serious. This is how his daughter is now.

So he could only grit his teeth and say to the senior manager: "You go and invite that waste... Oh no, please ask Master Lu to treat the lady. Say more good things. As long as you can cure the lady's illness, you will make great contributions. Have you heard it?"

The senior manager agreed with a sad face. This was not a good job. He had already turned his face with Jinping before, but now he begged to ask someone to come back to treat the lady. There was no place to put his face on his face. But the master told him not to refuse, so he could only go out with a bitter face.

After a long time, the senior manager came back, with his head hanging down, like a frost-beating eggplant, and said to Mr. Gao, the old lady and his two aunts: "I found out after asking, the Lord has been setting up a stall in the yamen, copying verdicts and scriptures for people. I found him and begged him for a long time. After saying a few good things, I almost knelt down and begged him. But that boy, no, the Lord Lu didn't give any face at all, and didn't even look at me, just pretending that I didn't exist. His powerful girl was sarcastic and sarcastic, saying that I had no face and had to come back."

When he heard this, the old man and his wives and concubines looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.

The second aunt said, "I'm afraid he won't see a rabbit and don't show off the eagle. We offended him before, and this time he has to take out money before he will come. Why not bring more money?"

The third aunt hurriedly said, "Yes, that's right, that's right. We should bring more money. The old man said before that, there will be a heavy reward for curing the lady's illness. We only gave fifty cents, which was indeed a little less. Old man, give more this time? If it's not enough, then there are still some jewelry, and add it to him. As long as the person who can save his daughter, I can give him all my belongings!"

Old Master Gao sighed and said to the senior manager: "Okay, you bring five thousand essays to him. He is now in poverty and should be satisfied. Five thousand essays are a lot, so go quickly."

The senior manager cried and said, "Master, there is not so much cash in the account."

Old Master Gao widened his eyes: "Nonsense, why can't you even get five thousand articles?"

"Yes, old man. After buying this house, there was only a lot of land left. A few days ago, I really spent a lot of money to treat the lady. Now, the cash sum is only two or three thousand yuan."

Old Master Gao was stunned for a moment. He used to be an official, but he only cared about official affairs and did not care about the finances at all. Unexpectedly, the family now had only such a little money. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at his wife. The wife was responsible for the family's accounts.

Mrs. Gao sighed and said to her husband: "Master, you are honest and rely on your salary. You don't have much water. You don't have much savings. The family's expenses are huge. This time, I retired and returned to my hometown. I bought this big house and bought some land. I don't have much cash. However, there is a lot of grain in the family's granary, and the rent that Qiuli just collected. Otherwise, I will sell it to see if I can save so much money? I'm afraid I won't be able to sell it in a good price."

The third aunt was also stunned and said, "Master, why don't we sell some land? There are many people buying land now. As long as they are willing to sell it, someone will definitely buy it."

"Nonsense!" Old Master Gao said angrily, "Why did we fall to the point of selling land? This is what the waste Lord did!"

Speaking of this, he remembered that he had asked for something now, so why did he still call him this? If he didn't open this knot, he would be afraid that he would not be able to ask for the Lord Lu to come back to treat his daughter. So he sighed and said, "Mr Lu did that, he would have no choice. He also wanted to reorganize the family... Forget it, we won't go to this, but our land cannot be sold, and we can still get 5,000 ounces. So, let's get the jewelry together, almost enough for this amount before sending it."

So, several wives and concubines went back to the house to bring their own jewelry boxes and gathered all the valuables. After roughly calculating, it was almost enough for 5,000 yuan. Adding the original copper coins, they were packed in a box of money. The senior manager took the box of money and went out again to beg Lu Jinping.

After a long time, the senior manager came back. But his face was still full of depression, he lowered his head, and held the money box: "Old man, I didn't get it done. - I put the money in front of him and begged him to pity our lady and come to treat the lady's illness, but he still thought I didn't exist, and didn't even look at the money in the box. - He was so poor that he was so noble!"

He was frustrated and couldn't help but curse.

Old Master Gao shouted: "Dog guy! You still talk like this? I guess you refused to bow your head and anger him, so he won't come, right?"

The senior manager was so scared that he knelt on the ground and said hurriedly: "No, Master, they can testify. I did apologize with a smile and beg him. I had never said a harsh word, they could testify." After that, he turned around and pointed at the servants accompanying him at the door and said.
