"You let go of me, let go of me!" Xiao Shi glared at Gu Chongyang hatefully, punched and kicked her, his fists kept hitting Gu Chongyang's body, and even slapped Gu Chongyang in the face. But no matter how he made trouble, Gu Chongyang just didn't let go, Danxin chased him out with a rope: "Miss, what should I do?" ”

"Tie him up!" Gu Chongyang was no longer merciful this time, and decided to teach Xiaoshi a lesson.

Xiao Shi watched in disbelief as Gu Chongyang and Danxin tied him up, he felt scared again, his eyes were full of horror and grievances, and tears flowed down his cheeks.

At this moment, he didn't dare to cry and make a fuss.

Gu Chongyang said with a cold face: "Since you don't believe in your words, don't blame me for not being emotional." When you come to me, you will listen to me. This time it's tied up, and the next time it's a palm. I'm not your grandfather or grandmother, and if you don't believe me, give it a try. ”

Gu Chongyang's vicious threat made Xiao Shi's tears flow even more fiercely, but he just sobbed but didn't dare to make a sound, and at this moment he felt that he could only be at the mercy of Gu Chongyang and had to give in.

This is indeed too harsh for a seven-year-old child. But Gu Chongyang told him that he couldn't be soft-hearted, since he wanted to treat him, he had to set rules for him, so that he knew what to do and what not to do. The indulgence of one is not to love him, but to harm him.

"Take him down, watch him well, and don't give him food or loosen his ties without my orders."

Because Xiao Shi kicked and grabbed Gu Chongyang just now, Dan Xin had long been dissatisfied with this bear child, and now that he had the order, he grabbed Xiao Shi without pity and carried him back to the room like a little chicken.

Gu Chongyang was relieved when he saw that Xiaoshi was no longer kicking and obediently followed Danxin.

I didn't feel tired just now, but when I relaxed, I felt exhausted.

Wang Jiulang has been watching from the side, although her eyes are faint, it makes Gu Chongyang a little embarrassed, she smiled apologetically at Wang Jiulang; "I'm going to let you see the joke, thank you for not interfering just now. Don't worry, I'll be able to heal the little stone. ”

Her hair was messy, her clothes were wrinkled, her forehead was covered with sweat, and her face was flushed, but she was as full of energy as if she had done something earth-shattering.

A ripple flashed in Wang Jiulang's eyes, this little girl is really obsessed with medical skills, and her serious work is also extremely charming.

That stubbornness and persistence make people have to be impressed by her.

He stretched out his hand to lift a few strands of hair from her forehead, but halfway through his hand he realized that something was wrong and took it back.

"You're welcome, you can cure Xiaoshi's disease, it should be our Wang family who thanks you." Wang Jiulang's facial expression remained the same, but his voice was much softer than before, and the eyes that fell on her face were also soft: "You go and clean up first." ”

Gu Chongyang was slightly surprised, and reacted in a moment. Wang Jiulang must have felt guilty because Xiao Shi cried and beat her just now.

But Jiulang is really good-looking, just like the spring breeze is slightly smoky, and the flowers are red and willow green, which is intoxicating. She likes Wang Jiulang like this, not the old Wang Jiulang with a cold face and mood.

Gu Chongyang smiled slightly and entered the inner room.

After a while, she called out to Wang Jiulang again: "Jiulang, I want to treat Xiaoshi in the past few days, and I need to live in Jiming Temple for a while, please Jiulang help me arrange a place to live." ”

Wang Jiulang nodded, his eyes fell on the beads of sweat on the tip of her nose: "Okay." ”

Gu Chongyang lived in Jiming Temple in this way, she lived in a courtyard with Xiaoshi, in order to facilitate the care of Xiaoshi, she lived in the east side, Xiaoshi lived in the west side, and there was only a Ming Hall in the middle.

In the evening, Gu Chongyang went to see the little stone, he was still tied, and he looked at the sunset outside the window. The big head is carried on the small body, and the eyes are full of shrinking and longing.

He must have been homesick.

Gu Chongyang walked up to him and asked him softly, "Little stone, do you know it's wrong?" ”

Xiao Shi glanced at Gu Chongyang, a little scared, and after a while, he nodded slowly: "Hmm." ”

Gu Chongyang continued to ask: "Do you want to loosen the tie?" ”

This time he nodded without hesitation: "Yes." ”

Gu Chongyang smiled slightly: "It's not impossible for me to loosen your bonds, but you have to listen to me." No running, no beating, can you agree? ”

"I promise." The little guy's voice was loud and loud, for fear that Gu Chongyang wouldn't hear it.

"Okay." Gu Chongyang said softly: "I'll loosen your ties now, take you to take a shower and change clothes, and then give you pulse treatment." ”

After loosening the tie, Xiao Shi was obviously much happier, and Gu Chongyang took him to take a bath.

Danxin volunteered to undress Xiaoshi, but Gu Chongyang stopped her: "I'll come." In the future, I will take care of the affairs of the little stone, and you will help in a few days. ”

She set rules for Xiaoshi, and she must hurry up to build trust with him, so as to ensure the effectiveness of the treatment.

Dan said distressedly: "Miss, you have grown so big, and others are serving you." Now he has to serve the little stone, which is too aggrieved. ”

Gu Chongyang smiled: "You don't understand, this is a treatment method, there is nothing wronged or wronged." ”

Xiao Shi stood beside him, looked at Gu Chongyang, and then looked at Dan Xin, who was dissatisfied, and subconsciously leaned towards Gu Chongyang.

This small action made Gu Chongyang very happy, it seemed that Xiaoshi was even smarter than she imagined.

Gu Chongyang undressed Xiao Shi, but he didn't expect Xiao Shi to cover his clothes and not let him, only his mouth was tightly pursed, and he stood stubbornly.

Gu Chongyang said with a straight face: "What are you doing with your clothes like this?" Don't you want me to help you take a bath? Since you don't want to, tell me loudly. We said before, what we want to do, we just say it, don't purse your mouth and don't speak! ”

Maybe her voice was a little harsh, maybe it was the previous events that left too deep an impression on Xiao Shi, this time he was not stubborn, but lowered his head and whispered: "I...... I'm a boy, you're a little lady. ”

Gu Chongyang was surprised, and when he saw Xiao Shixiao's face flushed, and his hands were clutching his clothes, he felt funny in his heart. How old is he, he cares about this.

However, Gu Chongyang also respected his habits, and she said, "You wait, I'll let the little guy come and help you take a bath." ”

Gu Chongyang found Uncle Ruifeng and explained the situation to him, and finally called a little guy named Ade to help Xiaoshi take a bath.

After taking a bath, Xiao Shi looked much more refreshed, took a short break and ate together, and after dinner, Gu Chongyang began to check Xiao Shi's body.

The limbs are thin and thin, the stomach is bulging, the lips are red, the breath is very smelly, there are ulcers in the mouth, the stool is dry, the fingers are gnawed, the food is not eaten, and the personality is perverse......

It is already a fire in the body caused by food accumulation, and the fire must be cleared first, and then massaged, and the diet should also be paid attention to.

Gu Chonghua first prescribed rhubarb and coptis laxative heart soup, asked the little girl Ah De to grab the medicine, and then asked the little stone to lie on the bed and give him a massage.

It is said to be massage, but in fact, it is chiropractic.

"It might hurt a little." Gu Chongyang said: "If you feel pain, you can endure it, and it will be over soon." Little Stone is a boy, a little man, you can't cry, otherwise I, a little lady, will definitely laugh at you. ”

Xiaoshi pursed his lips and said, "I won't cry." ”

Chiropractic pinch starts from the Gunan point of the tail vertebrae, along the backbone bone all the way up, pinch the skin on the back and go up, until the end of the large vertebral point, especially the back of the kidney, spleen, lung Yu and other acupuncture points for the viscera and to pinch hard.

It is a very effective method to pinch the spine and understand the meridians, promote the flow of qi and blood, and improve the function of the viscera to treat children's food accumulation, anorexia, and indigestion.

It just hurts at first. In particular, Xiaoshi is very thin, there is not much meat on his back at all, and he is skinny and bone-like. Gu Chongyang pinched the flesh on his back, and after only leaving once, he cried quietly.

Hearing him sobbing softly, Gu Chongyang stopped and asked him, "Does it hurt?" ”

Xiao Shi thought that Gu Chongyang was over, quickly wiped away his tears, and shook his head strongly: "It doesn't hurt." ”

"Little Stone is so brave." Gu Chongyang touched his head soothingly: "I have to do it three times in total, and there are two more, you bear with it, it'll be fine for a while." ”

Xiao Shi didn't expect it to be over, and the second time he couldn't help it at the beginning, and he cried loudly, and even showed signs of wanting to resist and escape.

Gu Chongyang's hand didn't stop, he only asked him loudly: "Xiao Shi still wants to see his grandfather and grandmother?" ”

This question made Xiao Shi's howling and crying turn into a long and resentful whisper, and he didn't resist anymore, only cried and thought.

Gu Chongyang said again: "You are obedient, I will cure you in a few days, and let your grandfather and grandmother come to see you." ”

This trick was very useful, and seeing that he didn't move, Gu Chongyang said again: "Are you a man?" ”

Xiao Shi endured the pain and whimpered in a low voice: "Yes, I am a man, I don't cry." ”

As he said this, tears flowed loudly, and his thin little hands grabbed the sheets.

Gu Chongyang was also distressed when he saw it, Xiao Shi was obviously a very smart child, and he must be very obedient if he was educated well, and he blamed Mrs. Wang and his wife for being too spoiled by him. It's not that you can't be pampered, it's just that everything has a degree, and if it is excessive, it is not love, but harm.

After pinching the spine three times, Gu Chongyang also felt that her arms and fingers were sore, she wiped her tears and sweat from Xiaoshi, let him sleep, covered him with a quilt, and then went to rest.

She slept on the bed on the east side, and Dan Xin slept on the foot next to the bed for the night, and not long after the two of them fell asleep, they heard the sound of gentle footsteps in Mingtang.

The footsteps stopped when they reached the east side doorway, as if hesitating to come in.

"Is it a small stone?" Gu Chongyang got up and asked Danxin to light the lamp, and sure enough, he saw Xiao Shi standing at the door holding a pillow and dragging his shoes, with two lines of tears on his thin little face.

"What's wrong with you?"

Xiao Shi glanced at Gu Chongyang with a shrunken look, and slowly walked in and said, "Doctor Gu, I'm ...... Afraid. ”

Yes, he is the only seedling of his grandfather and grandmother, and he must not have slept alone, not only that, but I am afraid that he will not shed as many tears as he does today.

"Then you come in and sleep with me." Gu Chongyang motioned for Dan Xin to carry him to the bed.

Dan Xin hesitated: "Miss, this is not good, Xiao Shi is a boy after all......"

Little Stone's hand gripped the pillow tightly, and his head lowered.

Gu Chongyang smiled: "What are you afraid of, he's still young." He said he was seven years old, but he was actually only five years old. ”

"Sister Danxin, I will be very well-behaved, I won't kick the quilt, I won't wet the bed, I won't grab a place with Dr. Gu, don't drive me away, I'm afraid of the dark."

Xiaoshi pleaded softly, Dan's heart was hard, and he couldn't push him out.

Helplessly, she took the little stone to bed.

The bed was very large, and the small stone slept in it, only taking up a little space, watching him deliberately curl up in it, afraid of touching Gu Chongyang's appearance, Gu Chongyang's heart softened a little. She thought of her son Rui Ge'er, if she hadn't died, it is estimated that Rui Ge'er would have grown to the size of a small stone.

This night's sleep was full of children's cries, I don't know if it was Xiaoshi's or Rui'er's.

When he woke up the next day, the first thing Gu Chongyang had to do was to pinch the spine of the little stone. After last night, he was already mentally prepared, and without waiting for Gu Chongyang's request, he obediently lay on the bed, and consciously took off his shirt, revealing his thin back.

This kid is really pitiful.

"Pinch five times in the morning, and if it hurts, you call it out, you don't have to endure it. Xiaoshi is still a little man, and it doesn't hurt to cry. ”

Gu Chongyang gave him a preventive injection in advance, thinking that Xiaoshi would cry like yesterday, but he gritted his teeth and said nothing, which greatly surprised Gu Chongyang and Danxin.

After breakfast and half an hour of rest, Gu Chongyang fed Xiaoshi medicine before leading him to greet Mrs. Baozhen.

Seeing Xiao Shi obediently saluting with Gu Chongyang, Mrs. Baozhen was surprised and delighted, and kept praising Gu Chongyang's ability: "...... I heard that this disease will be treated for half a month, since this is the case, you can concentrate on accompanying Xiaoshi for half a month, we will not go to class for the time being, and it is not too late to go to class slowly when we return to the capital. ”

Hearing her say this, Gu Chongyang was a little surprised: "Sir, are you going back to the capital?" ”

"Yes, but not now. We came to Nanjing this time, it was ordered by the emperor to build a sacrificial ancestral hall for my great-grandfather, and now the completion of the ancestral hall is imminent, and after the completion of the ceremony, a big sacrifice will be held, and we can return to the capital. It's been a few months since this flicker, and I don't know what's going on in the capital now. ”

Mrs. Baozhen's voice was soft and soft, and when she spoke of the capital, there was a bit of longing in her tone.

Listening to Mrs. Baozhen's meaning, I want to take her back with me. But she didn't think about whether to return to the capital or continue to stay in Nanjing, in fact, she lived a very happy life in Nanjing, her uncle and aunt loved her very much, except for Dou Haoxiao's repeated provocations, the others were perfect.

Mrs. Baozhen and Gu Chongyang gossiped commonly, and when Xiao Shi saw that no one was paying attention to him, his eyes kept staring at the snacks on Mrs. Baozhen's table. After a while, he quietly put his hand into his mouth and gnawed his nails, and just put his hand in his mouth, and hurriedly took it out again, and his little face was even more wrinkled and spit out secretly.

It turned out that Gu Chongyang was afraid that he would not be able to control himself from chewing his nails secretly, so he asked Danxin to smear his hands with coptis water.

Five days have passed in a blink of an eye, and although Xiaoshi has not fully recovered, he is much better than before, at least three meals are stable, and he is willing to eat.

Gu Chongyang discussed with him for a long time, and when he saw that he was well-behaved and obedient, he asked Mrs. Wang and his wife to come and visit him.

For Gu Chongyang, it was five days, but Mrs. Wang and his wife felt that the time was particularly difficult, especially Mrs. Wang, it would not be too much to say that it was like a year. She missed Xiao Shi and almost ran into Gu Chongyang's room.

Seeing Xiao Shi obediently standing motionless beside Gu Chongyang, he couldn't help but burst into tears, stretched out his hand and said to Xiao Shi: "Good grandson, come to grandmother." ”

A trace of struggle flashed in Xiao Shi's eyes, and he subconsciously wanted to throw himself into his grandmother's arms, but in the end, he held back and glanced at Gu Chongyang inquiringly. After Gu Chongyang nodded, he ran towards Mrs. Wang, running faster and faster, and finally threw himself into Mrs. Wang's arms and cried: "Grandmother, don't you want a small stone?" ”

Mrs. Wang was in too much pain, and hugged the little stone and cried with him: "The little stone is so well-behaved, why does grandmother not want the little stone?" Grandmother will always be with Little Rock. ”

Master Wang stood aside with tears in his eyes, but Gu Chongyang looked like a bad guy who broke up people's families.

After a while, the relationship between Mr. Wang and his wife calmed down, and the two of them found that Xiaoshi's complexion was really much better, although it was not all good, but it began to look like a healthy child, and the two of them thanked Gu Chongyang for their kindness.

Seeing that it was time to eat, Mrs. Wang wanted to say that she wanted to stay and eat so that she could take the opportunity to spend more time with her grandson, but Gu Chongyang unceremoniously sent the guests away.

Xiaoshi took Mrs. Wang's hand and cried: "Grandmother, don't go, don't leave me ......"

Mrs. Wang's tears flowed out again, and she looked at Gu Chongyang in a dilemma.

Gu Chongyang stood still and didn't move, but said unhurriedly: "Little stone, come back, it's time for us to eat." ”

It is strange to say that Xiao Shi immediately stopped crying as if he had heard the holy decree, although he was entangled and unwilling, he still let go of Mrs. Wang's hand, and walked to Gu Chongyang's side step by step and stood obediently.

Mrs. Wang also forgot to cry because she was too surprised, but Master Wang was very happy, feeling that her grandson was not only physically healed, but also became well-behaved, and pulled Mrs. Wang out of Jiming Temple.

Because Xiao Shi's appearance is good, if he completes the previous agreement, Gu Chongyang praised him very much. The next day, as he promised, he made a swing for him to play.

Seeing that he was full of novelty about swings, he found a few young monks of his age from Jiming Temple, or jumped a hundred ropes, or played with mud, or took them to the street at the back gate of Jiming Temple to buy sugar gourds to eat...... Except for the occasional daze at night, Xiao Shi stopped mentioning his grandfather and grandmother at all during the day.

After another five days, when Mr. and Mrs. Wang came for the second time, Xiaoshi had gained some weight, and his little face was flushed and he didn't say anything, and he didn't cry or make trouble. Gu Chongyang left Mr. and Mrs. Wang for lunch, and the two of them saw Xiaoshi eating by themselves, although the amount of food was not large, but it was very different from before, Mrs. Wang cried again, but this time it was tears of joy.

When he left in the evening, although Xiaoshi was reluctant, he did not cry, and even smiled and waved goodbye to them.

Looking at the short ten days, Xiaoshi has been reborn and has become more and more cheerful and healthy, and Gu Chongyang's heart is also full of achievements and joy.

The third time Mr. and Mrs. Wang came back, Xiaoshi had fully recovered, and when he saw him off, he cried, took Gu Chongyang's hand and said that Gu Chongyang must go to see him when he is free.

Gu Chongyang looked at his big eyes wet, and his heart was soft, feeling that all the efforts he had put in during this time were worth it.

Wang Jiulang's gaze involuntarily fell on Gu Chongyang, her delicate eyebrows, flower-like smile, and sincere gaze, there was nothing that was not excellent.

When they met for the first time, he knew that this little girl was different from ordinary women, but he didn't expect her to be so powerful, so he had to look at her again and again.

From the initial suspicion to the later pity, and then to the current admiration, it is only a few months. She was like buried gold, finally shining at the right time, and he could be sure that he was not the only one attracted by it.

Feeling Wang Jiulang's gaze, Gu Chongyang couldn't help touching his face, could it be that there was something dirty on her face?

Wang Jiulang looked away and asked casually, "Miss Gu, you have done me a great favor, how do you say I should thank you?" ”

"This is a big deal, it's just to treat Xiaoshi, and Master Wang has already paid for the consultation." And the consultation fee is very generous.

"If you want to say thank you, it should be me who thank you." Gu Chongyang solemnly obeyed Wang Jiulang: "The first thanks, I want to thank you for being on Liulichang Street three years ago, I almost fell, and Jiulang helped me, so that I didn't get out of trouble; Second thanks, you helped Shen Hetang through the crisis; Third thank you, because of your recommendation, Shen Hetang can become the Imperial Medicine Emperor Merchant. ”

and the grace of not killing when they met for the first time, making her a disciple of Mrs. Baozhen, and he helped her too much.

"I always keep Jiulang's kindness in my heart, although I am soft-spoken and my ability is limited, as long as Jiulang needs me in the future, I will go to the soup and fire, and there is no other word."

rushed to him to save his uncle and Shen Hetang, let his uncle become an imperial businessman, and put an end to the opportunity for King Yu Rong to contact, she would rather give this life to him.

However, Wang Jiulang is not necessarily rare.

"Okay." Unexpectedly, Wang Jiulang was abnormal, gently raised the corners of his mouth, and smiled slightly: "Your words, I remember them, there will be a day." ”

Gu Chongyang looked up in surprise, only to see a faint smile on Jiulang Ruyu's face, his eyes were bright and bright, as if he could see people's hearts, which made people's hearts flutter and think about it.

Gu Chongyang's face was hot, and the feeling of his heartbeat like thunder came again, and he hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look at him again.
