Chapter 287 - 287 287 Pissed Someone to Death

Chapter 287: Chapter 287: Pissed Someone to Death! Chapter 287: Chapter 287: Pissed Someone to Death! She was so tired and panting heavily when she got back to her courtyard. Have you seen anyone else like this? She was in a league of her own.

“Why is it so damn hard to find a decent stone, I shouldn’t have gone to the mountain!”

She’d walked so far, collected nearly half a basket of wild chicken eggs, yet she still hadn’t found a stone she liked. Either they were too large or they were long and thin.

Anyway, all these stones shared a common characteristic – they were all weirdly-shaped. She couldn’t find the flat stone that she wanted!

“Grandma, what did the physician say?”

Upon arriving home, she saw Third Aunt picking vegetables in the yard but didn’t see Lin Baiyi or the ox cart. She realized he must have gone to drop someone off.

She spotted Lu Qiubo.

“Hmph!”

Hearing her words, Lu Qiubo sounded angry and huffed heavily.

“I don’t know what is wrong with your Third Uncle. The physician he invited over spouted such nonsense – it’s infuriating!”

“Huh?”

Lin Caisang looked confused and turned to her elder brother Lin Changhong for explanation.

Seeing her looking towards him, Lin Changhong quickly took her side and began to whisper with her.

“What’s going on? Why is Grandma so angry?” She asked her brother.

“Don’t even get me started, Grandma is fuming on your behalf.” Lin Changhong said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Caisang became even more confused.

Since she wasn’t at home, how did she get dragged into all of this? Was this what they meant by the “leading role” effect? Why did she feel like a big pot had just fallen from the sky onto her head?

Luckily, before she could ask, Lin Changhong started to explain.

“It’s all because Third Uncle didn’t handle the situation properly. You gave him three prescriptions, right? Third Uncle first went to get the medicine from one pharmacy, then he went to another to invite a physician.”

Lin Caisang:”!!!”

She really didn’t expect that from her Third Uncle!

“I think the pharmacy where Third Uncle got the medicine didn’t have their physician back yet.”

Lin Baiyi wouldn’t have done that unless he had to. He was probably left with no other choice but to find someone else.

“That’s what I was thinking.”

Lin Changhong snorted and thought about that physician with disdain.

“At first, that physician looked pleased to see us inviting him with the ox cart. He took Third Aunt’s pulse and said a lot of nice things. But when it came to prescribing medicine, he saw that Third Uncle had already got his hands on some. Boy, his face turned so dark, it could match the bottom of our pan.

Then he said Third Aunt had a pearl disease, and that this pregnancy was very dangerous, best to not keep it!”

“Did he really say that?”

Once Lin Caisang heard this, she understood everything instantly.

Anyone who heard such words would be angry. No wonder Grandma was furious. Third Aunt’s child was her own grandchild.

“If the physician keeps acting like this, he probably won’t have a future.” She said.

“Exactly.”

Lin Changhong nodded.

“He also said… not to trust any old prescriptions as though they were treasures, warning that they could poison people to death, and it’d be too late for regrets. Grandmother was furious when she heard him, and started arguing with him.”

It was a prescription from her own granddaughter, how could she not believe it?

Moreover, when Third Uncle had just said a word, the person who had dispensed the medicine had already said that the prescription was good. When compared, plus seeing the physician’s face, Grandma blew up in anger immediately.
