The affairs in the pharmacy are almost familiar, the façade is renovated, there are many people who come to see the doctor, and the medicinal materials are still the most common and cheap licorice and astragalus, four or five people are conscientious, and life is better than a while ago.

She plans to take advantage of the extended holiday of the summer solstice to go to Xuanying Mountain, observe this landmark at the junction of the north and the south up close, relax and relax the yellowed eyes of countless patients with minor diseases, and pick herbs from medical books and ancient books.

As soon as I heard this, Xuanying Mountain belonged to the same Liang country as the Baizang River, and made a natural border with Yuxiao Mountain. However, the nearest foothills are only a few hundred miles away from Fanjing, and the woodcutters and mountain people in the south occupy the sunny slopes, and the merchants also take shortcuts to transport goods, and there are also some people who love to travel in the mountains and rivers to practice, although there are guards, the boundaries have become not very clear. From this, I remembered that Qi was originally a territory of Liang State, first of all, the southernmost Yuezhou became independent, and in less than a hundred years, it expanded north to the north of Yingshui and south of the Xuanying Mountains.

Su Huihui speculated unkindly that if Qi Min went up a little further, there would be nothing the Liang people could do, and they would be able to develop to this level in a hundred years, and it would be hard to say what it would be like in the future.

She inadvertently compared, just the fact that the Sheng family's descendants were flourishing had thrown off more than a dozen streets of the Hailing Su family. At the beginning of the year, Su Huan, who was twenty years old, succeeded to the throne, and I don't know how the hundred officials felt, the son of a bankrupt county king who succeeded him could inherit the unification, and it was really not good to dare to love her uncle, and there were few reliable men in the Su family; So as to think of Empress Yuwen and her grandmother, what she could do was to recite a thought to the Buddha not to let this retribution stimulate the fragile heart of the Yuwen family, and forced her to fight back, after all, she still had a good impression of Su Huan, and her grandmother also took good care of her. She still has the land property in the name of the queen mother in Liang State, what can she do if the country is in chaos, if she doesn't go back to Yuxiao Mountain, she really wants to live in Nanqi for the rest of her life, although there is nothing bad, she is always a little uncomfortable in her heart.

By mid-May, she knew her plans had failed.

This year, there was too much rain, and the plume tributaries of the upper reaches of Yingshui were full of water, and half of the ten dikes from the middle to the estuary of the lower reaches of the sea became ornaments, and from the top of the mountain, some of the river basins were simply a vast ocean, and the hillsides of the county with many people were cut down badly, and sometimes a thick log in a large amount of sediment floated down and hit the thatched hut and brick house, and the family was destroyed. With a once-in-a-decade flood and Gyeonggi being surrounded by rivers and low terrain, the government naturally sent people to the county to distribute medicinal herbs and prevent cholera.

The rain poured down from the sky without restraint, and the eaves were soaked in water for half a month, and the silky raindrops at the corners of the eaves fell long and long in the water tank in the corner, and the little water lilies she raised were sticking to the water, peeking out their pink cheeks from between the green lotus leaves and duckweed, and ignoring the wet air around them.

Su Huihui woke up from the damp bed in the middle of the night, she really couldn't stand the climate, and if she got it any longer, she was ready to roast it on the stove. Although Dieyun Mountain is also rainy, it comes and goes quickly, the sun is very good in summer, and the wind is strong, where is there such a nasty weather.

She lifted the quilt and sat up, walked around the room a few times, picked up the "Chu's Testament" that she was reading, leaned on the flower cover, glanced at the theory of yin and yang, and saw the chapters of "Ask", she was really attentive and imaginative, and her thoughts simply flew to the clouds. This book is suspected to have been written by a previous generation, and it bears the name of a horse captain, and it is expected that the writer was detained by the etiquette law, and he wrote something about the way of having a son.

Su Huihui finished reading the book, and the scale on the drip showed that it was the third watch, and she forced herself to lie back on the bed, and closed her eyes with a mung bean pillow.

She felt like she had only slept for a while before she woke up, but when she woke up, it was already halfway through. The main target of the pharmacy is those ordinary people who get up early and are greedy for darkness, and the two doctors Lin Qi got up the earliest, and they began to sit in the hall in the summer. Physician Wang and Physician Fang must have come to the main hall at the time, she was able to discuss the medication with the old physician in the first few days, and then the original form was revealed, but fortunately, she spent all the money for the repair of the pharmacy, and they turned a blind eye to this nominal deputy envoy, not to mention that the original deputy envoy had been staying in the Tai Hospital.

The kitchen only manages two meals a day, Ruixiang brought it out to buy breakfast, Su warmed up and washed, looking at the hot golden white and tender chicken soup wonton, and his mood instantly improved. She felt that this was not bad for a while, and after earning some money, she would live in a beautiful place for a while, plant flowers, make up for the unfinished medical books written by her master, and return to Yuxiao Mountain to recuperate when she was old......

Ruixiang listened, pursed her lips and smiled: "Isn't the girl married?" Once you get a bowl of wonton, you forget about the big things. ”

Su Huihui thought she was a very quiet and shy little girl, but she didn't expect it to take a long time to understand that this is a lot of words, she used to be pressed and had nowhere to pour out, and she really said anything when she was familiar.

She coughed and said, "Didn't Mrs. Rong tell you, you have to talk less in this line to get more money." ”

Ruixiang propped up the edge of the table, blinked her eyes and tilted her head and said, "I want to talk less, and the girl thinks I'm bored, so I'd rather take less money." ”

Su Hui smiled warmly: "You are self-aware. ”

Ruixiang said again: "Where does the girl want to live?" The girl's household registration is written on the population of the capital, right? ”

The household registration should have registered a family population, but Su Huihui was an official and alone, so Rong Jianchi gave her a household post according to the precedent of the previous female medical officer, which was written as a medical household, originally from Yongzhou, where the southern part of Yuxiao Mountain is located, and his parents were not there, he was attached to the capital, and he had an official registration prepared by the Ministry of Rites. If she is not the deputy envoy, it will be a little troublesome to change the household registration, and she may have to entrust Rong Jianchi to handle it, but the household registration management of Qi State is not as strict as that of Liang State, and the ban on displaced people has been lifted for three generations, and there are many attached people, and it is not very difficult to choose a place to live in peace.

After only a few days of work, thinking about what happened after his resignation, Su Huihui bit his chopsticks and felt that he was really too idle.

As soon as he finished eating wonton, there was a knock on the door outside, and Qi Ming hurriedly shouted: "Doctor Su, Doctor Su, the carriage of the government came, saying that there was a cholera outbreak in Zou Yuan County, Fuzhou the night before yesterday, and hundreds of people vomited and diarrhea overnight, and dozens of them died!" The Tai Hospital told us to rush over with the doctors in the city now to prevent the plague from spreading to the capital! After saying that, he was called away.

Su Huihui didn't expect to come so quickly, she opened the door and walked out to look around, only to see that the official had already entered the pharmacy and was talking to Doctor Fang.

Su Huihui had just come to the main hall, and the official had seen that everyone was together, his face was relieved, and he didn't say a word, waving his hand and asking someone to take them out. Su Huihui didn't even drink saliva, and ran back under the contemptuous gaze of the official to bring the luggage and medicine box that he had packed in advance, and Ruixiang also had to follow, and she was left in the pharmacy to watch the door.

A group of people pushed and shoved into the car, and many medical women were also arrested, so Su Huihui went out of Beijing with a team of medical women. The folk doctors are worthless lives, and in the event of a natural disaster, they must be prepared to go to the front team, no matter where you are in the family, she has seen the doctors summoned by the state government, it is simply a prisoner, no more than dozens of miles without a carriage to let people walk, she was still young at the time, and she ran away with her master, for fear that her master would be arrested and she would have no one to support. There are very few doctors and women in Liang Guo, and there are at least twenty people in the convoy she is in out of the city, there are so many in the capital, and there will be no shortage of places, but you must know that this business really treats women as men. Seeing that the five people in the car pulling the goods only had time to bring medicines, and all of them had a bitter expression on their faces, Su Huihui comforted himself and said, "It's good to have a car at the feet of the Son of Heaven." The court raised her for a tael of silver a month, just to prevent the pharmacy from becoming a complete decoration at this time, she was a second-in-command, and she had to go if she didn't go.

The speed of the car was very fast, and I changed trains again in the middle, and I arrived in Zou Yuan County the next night. There are 20 counties in the four prefectures of Tianjinfu, and Zou Yuan County is a middle county with more than 20,000 households, and 40,000 stone of grain per year. Due to the proximity to Fanjing, the whole county was on guard, the county already had soldiers from Fuzhou Wei to isolate the patients infected with the epidemic, the monastery also made a nursing workshop, and a simple shack was temporarily built in the city to house the patients, and a street was empty, and across the street was the residence of the doctors. As soon as they get off the bus, the young adults start the first shift, and the doctors can rest for the night.

The residual rain knocked on the window, Su Hui warmed the lamp, and the dim light of the oil lamp immediately filled the small house. The cracks in the walls were hidden in the dark shadows, and the shadows flickered, and the few winding cracks seemed to stretch out a few inches long. She looked at the changing silhouette of the shadows, and she didn't know if it was late at night or so tired that she felt tired to even look away.

The three people who lived together enthusiastically packed up the beds and the clothes and towels that had been distributed, and checked the house again. The residence of female doctors is generally better than that of male doctors, and Su Huihui is a general among the short men, and the distribution of private houses by officials should be divided into rank and status. The house was piled up with a large number of medicinal herbs so that the doctors could make medicines at any time, and the owner was very simple, and only took away his valuables, leaving the kettle and cups neatly placed on the kitchen stove, and even the clothes were folded in the cabinet, and there were a few clogs, and some rice noodles.

"What is Doctor Su in a daze?" A medical woman in her twenties asked with a smile, her delicate melon seed face was not a little tired, as if she was very familiar with the matter of catching Ding.

Su Huihui said softly: "I thought that these clothes, clogs, cups, plates, dishes, etc., had to be scalded with boiling water mixed with herbs, and the bed couldn't be dried, so I had to wash it with hot water." ”

When the other two medical women heard this, they hurriedly stopped their movements, nodded again and again, and said, "Yes, yes, we are all confused for a while, and the places that can be touched in this room should also be poured with boiling potion to prevent rats from infesting." 'Rats waded in rice, donated but not eaten', and it was also said in "Jin Kui Yaolu" that things stained with insects could not be eaten...... Fortunately, Dr. Su reminded me in time. ”

Several people came to the backyard, this room is not big, but the yard is spacious. There is a deep well in the hospital, and a large amount of alum is put into it with a lantern, and buckets of water are brought out to purify the calamus and then boiled. Gritted his teeth and passed the inside and outside of the house, the sky was slightly white, the two young ones couldn't stand it and lay on the bed, Su Hui was exhausted, and sat on the shiny rattan chair with the last trace of consciousness, and slept for a few quarters of an hour.

The outbreak of the epidemic was very fast, and in just a few days, the neighboring counties of Anyi, Qingyuan, and Dingning all appeared in Fuzhou Wei, and the situation in the bordering Danzhou and Lizhou was also dangerous. A large number of doctors were sent to the heavily flooded areas of Qi to assist the medical officials of various prefectures and counties, and there were also officials sent by the imperial court to promote prescriptions for the prevention and treatment of cholera on the post roads that extended in all directions.

Su Huihui could only sleep for two hours a day at most, and then he couldn't even go back to his residence every day, so when he was tired, he took a break in the thatched hut full of vinegar and smoke next to the shack. Every time she opened her eyes, the sky outside was always gray and gray, she poured a cup of tea, got up from the thin blanket and covered with a scarf and continued to work hard. Sick people were constantly brought into the shed, and she felt that this cholera might not be optimistic, because there was already a lot of water in the south, and there would be a plague every few years, and the imperial court could handle it with ease, but the number of dead people remained high.

At dawn she yawned and walked out of the hut, and the guards outside the hut were more dutiful than the pale, restless ones before. The guard looked at her for a while, and Su Huihui rushed straight in impatiently, slandering constantly.

The sick breath came to her face, and she was really a little afraid. In fact, she used to go to the clinic with the master, and she had seen all kinds of patients, but she was completely alone, and even if the steps were not wrong, no one would feel a little uneasy when they were watching. The master took the trouble to tell her that character can be lacking, medical ethics can not be missing, Su Hui will be that medical ethics belong to character, one day other festivals will have to be gone, medical ethics can also support face, so the diagnosis and treatment has been extra careful, for fear that he will become a quack doctor and ruin people for a lifetime.

In front of him, two quacks stood in front of an old man who was described as withered and dangerous, talking condescendingly, shaking their heads like fairies. The old man curled up on the straw mat had cloudy eyes, his limbs twitched slightly, and he was holding his stomach □□, Su Huihui had a seven or eight-year-old child in his hand, even if he had the heart, he couldn't leave, and listened to him while probing his pulse:

"There is a feeling on the outside and a wound on the inside, yin and yang are obediently separated, restless and stuffy, I see that this old man can still vomit, it should be treated, it is appropriate to use Huoxiang Zhengqi to disperse with fried peony."

Another with a goatee said: "Cholera in the summer moon, this is the air rises but does not fall, the cold and heat are combined, and he is thirsty and afraid of food, so he should use Liuhe soup." ”

First, a middle-aged physician who looked like a pedant said: "Since there are different opinions, I will first take out the same licorice and nongpu in these two recipes and give him ...... to take the rest, and then consider the rest, what the virtuous brother said is also somewhat reasonable, if he wants to be thirsty again, he will take ice water and give him ."

Su Huihui was stunned when he heard it, where did he think that there was such a strange thing in the world, the little boy who was fed the medicine by her called out, she quickly scooped a spoonful of blow and continued to feed, his thin mother was beside him and had no time to care about him, holding the mattress and vomiting in the dark.

Su Huihui closed her eyes, if they did what they said, she wouldn't have the strength to argue with the immortals, and when they came out of the shed, they would take a look at the patients, and write a prescription in time to catch the medicine.

After feeding a bowl of medicine, the little boy's bitter face wrinkled, and she took out a piece of licorice and let him hold it in his mouth, leaving a hint of sweetness for the time being. Turning her head again, the two were really not there, she shuffled over, and was about to crouch down, but someone pulled her behind her. She subconsciously turned her head and left the edge of the straw mat with little strength on her feet.

But it was Dr. Chen, who lived with him, who was in his twenties, and said in a low voice: "I have already prescribed a prescription, you see—someone is coming." She and Su warmed up in the middle of a group of patients.

Su Huihui looked at the door not far away, and in the noise, it seemed that the guards snorted a few times, and as soon as the green curtain was lifted, someone had indeed entered this humble ward.

In front of them lay a big man who was not seriously ill, his eyes crossed the man's high shoulders and reached a huge horse face, Su Huihui was about to tell her that even if people were ugly, they could not be discriminated against, and they should have an indifferent and ordinary heart, so they heard a long voice on the opposite side:

"The people of Zhizhou are sympathetic to the people of 10,000 households, and they do not hesitate to go deep into the people to observe the people's feelings, and they are welcome without courtesy!"

Su Huihui immediately understood that this was the local governor's inspection, and since she said that she was exempt from courtesy, she didn't bend her waist again. She thought so, but the awake patient still struggled to get up, and the doctors put down their affairs and knelt down to greet them.

She and Chen Hua sat cross-legged on the edge of the bunk together, and someone was in the way, which was very inconspicuous. It was expected that others would not pursue it, so Su Hui simply didn't move a point.

The Zhizhou lord was extremely angry, and there was only one guard at the door who followed him, and he walked in step by step.

She had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

Zhizhou was wearing a white pheasant blue clothes, wearing a gold-topped black veil, his eyes were blank, and his face was pale. The guard beside him was the one who made Su warm his belly, dressed in a black hat and holding a long sword, and walked slowly along the long aisle with him.

Starting from the door on the east side of the shack, two rows of bunks are neatly arranged, and the aisle in the middle is now very spacious. Lord Zhizhou came from the door step by step, and occasionally stumbled a few times, and the guard bowed down to help, and he shivered slightly, and hurriedly retracted his hand, as if he was a prisoner in prison.

Walking in front of Su Huihui, a wisp of wine seeped into the face towel. This chief did not forget to come to observe the people's feelings after drinking, which is really empathetic, no one told him that drunken evil is the easiest to enter the body?

Zhizhou was like a walking corpse, trembling and easy to walk halfway, suddenly rolled his eyes, and fainted in front of her right side. The whole shack was in chaos in an instant, and the noise almost toppled the roof.

The guard methodically propped up his upper body and waved towards the door to signal for someone to come. Su Huihui immediately reached out to touch his pulse, and the black-clothed guard turned sideways in an instant, and her hand suddenly slapped on the hard scabbard. The guard looked at her expressionlessly, and the coldness in her eyes made her withdraw her hand before she had time to think.

Su Hui lowered her eyes, and when the person at the door came, she took the opportunity to glance over there.

Two teams of guards rushed over and stood neatly on the edge of the pavement, and several people surrounded Zhizhou.

She could easily see a few feet away from the door of the wide-open shack a man in a scarlet robe standing against the backlight, his faint and cool gaze piercing through the substance of the miscellaneous sickness, and when he arrived nearby, he actually gave birth to a smile.

Zhizhou in the circle of people suddenly coughed violently, and shouted hoarsely: "You ......" Before he finished speaking, there was no sound again.
