41. Tranquility and far-reaching

Yuliu City is the capital of Southern Chu, and the palace and the mansions of the family are located in the north of the city. The pen "fun" pavilion www.biquge.info bounded by the hot spring winter river, the north is expensive, the south is the house, the hierarchy is clear, and it cannot be crossed. The Yaowangfu is in the southeast of the city, near the Winter River, and another pharmacy in Wuzuo is in the south, not far from the South City Gate.

After entering the city, Xiao Su arrived home, his home is in the area of the East City Gate, where the population is sparse, the houses are dilapidated, and they are not as prosperous and beautiful as the surroundings of the Winter River. He pointed in the direction and asked Xia Ping'an to drive the carriage into a deserted alley.

It is said to be an alley, but most of the aisles are lined with fields, and there are few houses, and even if there is a house that can live in people, it is made of thatch, and it looks dilapidated. In the field next to them, several village farmers were busy working in the fields, and when they saw a magnificent carriage coming, they all looked at this side with curiosity and envy.

About half an hour later, the three of them came to a thatched house that was no different from other houses, Qu Yiying got out of the car first, she knew that she was eye-catching, so she had already brought a gauze hat when she came back, she looked around through the gauze hat, she really didn't expect that there was such a barren place in the gentle and beautiful Yuliu City.

"You're going to live here?" Xia Ping'an frowned and helped Xiao Su out of the carriage.

Pushing open the unlocked door, the two entered the house together, and there was a small window facing the door, and under the small window was a wooden table, and two mats were placed beside it. Xiao Su knew that they would dislike it, and he didn't care, so he said to Xia Ping'an with a big grin, "Just help me to the bedside, if you are okay, go back, anyway, I don't have anything to entertain here." Don't worry about me, my grandfather will come back later, he will take care of me. ”

Xia Ping'an listened to him talk about his grandfather, so he also relieved his heart, he looked around the room, only to find that there was a small door on the right, inside was a stone stove and pots and pans and other things, like a small kitchen. On the left side of the door, against the wall, there are two small beds, the mattresses are clean, and the quilts are neatly folded.

At this time, Qu Yiying also entered the house, she was carrying the plaster that Xiao Su needed to change, Xiao Su saw this, and pointed to the wooden table, "Put the medicine on it, I am small and simple here, but there is no special cabinet for medicine." ”

Xia Ping'an had just placed him down, Xiao Su leaned against a pillar beside the bed, supported his head with his hands, and suddenly became unusual, sighing and said, "Ping'an, your hospital is so busy, the next time you come to see me, it is estimated that it will be a few months later, right?" When the time comes, remember to bring a few bottles of good wine, a few good dishes, and let the two of us have a few glasses to tell the heartfelt reunion after a long absence. ”

"Don't think I don't know what the hell you're up to, don't you just want to drink?" Xia Ping'an's dark eyes flashed, and he could see Xiao Su's thoughts at once.

Hearing this, Xiao Su's face was a little red, and he laughed, "Xiao Ping'an still understands me, as long as you remember......" He waved his hand again, yawned, and lay down on the bed, "Let's go, let's go, I'm going to rest for a while." ”

Seeing this, Xia Ping'an didn't want to disturb him anymore, he glanced at Qu Yiying, who was standing next to the wooden table, and went out without saying a word.

Qu Yiying knew that he was still making trouble, so he smiled at Xiao Su and said, "If your leg injury is healed, come and play with us." ”

Xiao Su hurriedly nodded yes.

Outside, Xia Ping'an had already turned the carriage around, and when Qu Yiying came out, he was leaning against the wall of the carriage, pursing his lips, looking at the surrounding fields with a sideways face, as if he was in deep thought, she looked at him, and felt that the face was clearly still immature and innocent, but it often had many vicissitudes and fatigue that adults had never had.

Xia Ping'an stood there, heard the footsteps, and didn't turn his head at all to know that it was her coming, his expression became cold, he took a few steps forward, took the reins and got into the carriage.

After a few breaths, the two set off.

After a while, Qu Yiying lifted the curtain, sat down beside Xia Ping'an, and asked softly, "When have you decided to reconcile with me, do you want to never talk to me?" ”

Half-ringing, he didn't say a word before he spoke, but he didn't answer her question, "We won't go back to the Medicine King's Mansion, the master said, go directly to the medicine shop." ”

"Why?" She asked.

Xia Ping'an didn't look at her, and said simply, "How can there be so many whys." Why didn't I ask you, why did you suddenly dislike my master and be so close to that Yan Ning? In fact, he gradually understood that maybe Qu Yiying was just joking with himself that day, but deep down in his heart, he still kept that hope.

Hearing this, Qu Yiying was choked by his words, and felt that this child's personality was exactly the same as that of Dr. Wu, and he didn't leave any affection for others, she secretly complained to herself, it seems that she will study medicine under Wu Zuo in the future, and she may have a hard time, because this big and small are not easy to deal with.

Along the way, neither of them spoke, and after about a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the pharmacy.

The last time she came, she entered through the back door, but this time Xia Ping'an parked the carriage at the front door. This simple house, simple and quiet, surrounded by walls with pale and white walls, is planted with green bamboo tips that just emerge from the wall, although there is a plaque hanging on the black gate, but there is no word and no print.

In the front yard, there is a large tree on the left, and under the big tree there are stone tables and chairs for patients to rest while they wait. There is no door in the lobby, but two long bamboo mats are hung on the beams, which are faintly hidden from top to bottom.

Qu Yiying looked inside, the light in the lobby was a little dim, she tilted her head slightly, and noticed that there were cabinets with many small drawers standing on the wall, and the handles of the drawers were hanging from a piece of bamboo, which seemed to write some words, but she couldn't see it clearly because of the distance.

She asked Xia Ping'an next to her curiously, "That's the cabinet where the herbs are placed, right?" ”

Even if Xia Ping'an had trouble with her again, he was also sensible and knew when to do something, so he nodded, walked to the corner of the lobby on the right, pulled a rope, and moved the hanging bamboo mat up.

Halfway through the curtains, when the lobby was brighter than it began, he stopped, turned and walked towards the corridor, and spoke, his voice soft, and a little childish, "Master, we're back." ”

At this moment, Qu Yiying knew that Dr. Wu was here, and she thought that Wu Zuo had left again because of something busy. At the same time, she also found that behind the curtain was a wooden table, on which some white cloth was placed, like a place for patients to be treated, and around the wooden table there was a half-person tall long cabinet, next to which was an aisle, and the cabinet was from front to back, and from right to left, enclosing this position of the consultation.

Qu Yiying walked into the aisle, there was a tall cabinet for medicinal herbs standing next to the wall in the aisle, she reached out and picked up a piece of bamboo, and saw that there were indeed words written on it, but unfortunately she didn't recognize it.

"The master told you to go to the middle courtyard." She was carefully looking at the bamboo slices, and Xia Ping'an's voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

Qu Yiying passed through the corridor and came to the middle courtyard where he had slept in a daze, where the water was murmuring, quiet and peaceful, and Dr. Wu stood by the flowing sink, with a tall body on his side, holding a round scoop in his hand to water the grass.

He wore an ordinary strip of brown cloth around his waist, and he was still dressed in white, but it was not the elegant and noble crescent moon brocade when they first met, but a simple and somewhat rough white linen. The movements in his hands are not impatient, and he carefully waters the herbs one by one, just like the home-based men of ordinary people's homes, leisurely and comfortable, enjoying his cloudy backyard life.
