Zhong Ziyuan stretched his neck and wanted to take a closer look, but Zhu Fei rolled up the painting in three or two times, and casually threw it into a wide-mouth pink Ru kiln porcelain vase on the ground. The porcelain vase was already densely packed with more than a dozen volumes.

Zhong Ziyuan, who knew Zhu Fei's character, couldn't help but smile in horror: "When did you fall in love with painting?" ”

Zhu Fei flicked his sleeves and said helplessly: "Nowadays, many imperial historians have impeached me in front of the emperor, saying that I am tyrannical and moody. As the prince of Shu, he stayed in Chang'an and did not want to return to Shu, and he also made friends with the royal family and nobles everywhere, offending the court officials, so he was deeply guilty. ”

Zhong Ziyuan was stunned for a moment, and said angrily: "You are not the only prince of the vassal who is stranded in Chang'an City, why are they only looking for you to open the knife?" What does the emperor say, does he want you to go back to Shu? ”

"The emperor said, if I'm fine, I'll stay in the house these days to read and paint, and don't make trouble for him all day long." After Zhu Fei finished speaking, he spread out a piece of rice paper with a painful face, and took a wolf pen dipped in ink and sketched it up.

Zhong Ziyuan was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then she held her stomach and laughed. Zhu Feifeng's eyes rolled, glanced at her dissatisfiedly, and said, "Little one has no conscience, your illness is cured." Now I'm in the midst of water and heat, and you're laughing so happily. That being said, there was a silent warm glow in his eyes, as if two small flames were burning in them.

Zhong Ziyuan nodded and said, "No wonder you don't feel strange at all when you see me, it turns out that you already knew that I was cured." ”

Zhu Fei smiled slightly, and then focused on the rice paper in front of him. He only said lightly: "When the secret guards of the Guo Mansion found him last night, he happened to be with me. I see, Zhong Ziyuan quietly stuck out her tongue.

"Alright, alright. Don't pretend here, I've got you covered. Zhong Ziyuan saw that he still wanted to paint again, so he snatched the wolf pen from his hand, rested it on the pine stone inkstone on the side, and then pulled his sleeve and walked out.

Next to the stables in the backyard, an inconspicuous kennel was built with dry branches and straw, and Zhong Ziyuan pulled Zhu Fei to squat in front of the kennel. I was looking inside with relish.

Zhu Fei frowned tightly, covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves, and glanced at the pile of squirming in the kennel with disgust. The little milk dog, who was not much bigger than a mouse, said, "That's what you said?" A pack of wild dogs, ugly to death. ”

Zhong Ziyuan said dissatisfiedly: "Anyway, they are also part of your mansion now, of course they can't be regarded as wild dogs." And newborn puppies are such fluffy messes. What's ugly? ”

She also reached out and counted with great interest: "One." Two, three wow, Wangcai, you are so powerful, you actually gave birth to five! ”

"What, Wangcai? It's still called such an ugly name. I don't admit that they are part of my family's house. What the hell was raised by that dog slave, get out of here. Zhu Fei raised his voice dissatisfied. Wangcai turned back vigilantly at these two unknown people who were watching without authorization. As if sensing an inexplicable threat, it bared its teeth and glared at the two of them. There was a snoring sound in his throat. The puppies who were huddled together to nurture themselves were also frightened and barked. Let's go under Wangcai's belly.

A timid voice came from behind the two voices: "Yes, it's my dog." ”

Zhu Fei looked back, but saw Chunni with messy hair and a large porcelain bowl in her hand walking over slowly. Seeing the horror on her face, Zhong Ziyuan hurriedly pulled Zhu Fei secretly, then stood up and said with a smile: "Chunni, when did Wangcai give birth to a puppy?" ”

Chunni was obviously frightened by Zhu Fei's previous anger, and snorted, "That's it, that's it, it's fifteen days ago." After a pause, she asked curiously, "Are you Sister Zhong or Doctor Jia?" ”

Zhong Ziyuan couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this, she subconsciously went to look at Zhu Fei, Zhu Fei also looked up at her, his bright phoenix eyes flashed with a strange light of unknown meaning. Zhong Ziyuan's heart jumped, and she hurriedly looked away, only looked at Chunni and said, "I am Sister Zhong and Doctor Jia. But if I were Sister Zhong, I wouldn't be able to continue to treat your uncle. ”

Chunni immediately said briskly: "Then you should be Doctor Jia, you look weird and scary when you are Sister Zhong." It's still Dr. Jia, who can talk to me, help Wangcai build a nest, and help my uncle heal. ”

Zhong Ziyuan smiled when she heard this, and said, "Then I will listen to Chunni, and I will still be a doctor Jia in the future." ”

When Chunni heard this, a shy but bright smile bloomed on her face. Zhu Fei muttered in a low voice on the side: "Little liar." ”

Zhong Ziyuan's face was hot, but she pretended not to hear it, and beckoned to Chunni: "Do you want to come to feed Wangcai?" Come on! ”

Chunni's feet moved, and after glancing at Zhu Fei, who was silent, she stood stiffly again. Zhong Ziyuan frowned and secretly kicked Zhu Fei. Zhu Fei touched his nose helplessly, so he had to stand up and slowly paced away.

Chunni breathed a sigh of relief, jumped to Zhong Ziyuan's side, bent down and carefully placed the porcelain bowl in her hand to Wangcai's mouth. In the bowl is leftover rice, mixed with a little minced meat and vegetable soup. Wangcai stretched out his nose and sniffed, and immediately stuck out his tongue and devoured it.

Chunni clapped her hands, and suddenly said to Zhong Ziyuan: "Doctor Jia, since you can treat your uncle, can you treat your puppy?" ”

Zhong Ziyuan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Which puppy is sick?" She subconsciously looked under Wangcai's belly, and saw that the group of puppies were all round like meat balls, and she really couldn't see anything wrong.

Chunni hurriedly said, "It's not them. She pointed to an arched straw pile in the corner of the kennel and said, "It's in there!" ”

After saying that, she stretched out her little hand and pulled it in the straw pile for a while, then pulled a short tail, and sure enough, she pulled out a little milk dog. Then he said, "This puppy is not as robust as the other puppies, so it is always huddled aside and cannot be approached." Even if it feeds milk, it can only eat a few bites of leftovers after other puppies have eaten, so it can't grow old. Dr. Jia. You can see if it's sick. After saying that, she held the puppy in front of Zhong Ziyuan, and then looked at her with blank eyes.

Zhong Ziyuan took the little milk dog into his hand. After a closer look, I found that it was particularly thin. The other puppies all have round bellies, only it is shriveled, and the fluff on its body is sparsely scratched by other puppies, like a wheat field that has not been cut in winter.

Through the sparse villi, you can faintly see the bulging ribs in the abdomen. Although its body is small, its eyes are large, round like two black grapes. The two little ears collapsed limply. Stick snugly to the scalp. Perhaps frightened, it buried its head tightly between its legs, its tiny body still shivering.

Zhong Ziyuan noticed that the bend of its left hind leg was very unnatural. So she poked her finger, and the little milk dog immediately let out a small "squeak" wail.

Zhu Fei had already paced back to Zhong Ziyuan's side at this time, and when he heard the barking of the little milk dog, he couldn't help laughing and said, "What the hell is this mouse?" Or dogs? I don't even have the strength to scream. I'm afraid this little guy won't be able to feed him. ”

"Who said that?" Zhong Ziyuan touched its small body. smiled: "It was only when it was born that it broke its leg, so it didn't have the strength to grab milk from those brothers and sisters." So I don't even have the strength to bark, and when I'm full, and then help him tie his legs, he'll be like a normal puppy. ”

After thinking about it, she said to Chunni again: "Chunni, you see that you have to take care of six puppies and Wangcai, you will definitely be too busy." Why don't you give me this puppy? I'll definitely help him heal his leg and find a very kind sister to take care of him. ”

Chunni thought for a moment. nodded and said, "Well, in fact, Wangcai was also picked up by you and me, and you are also its owner." If you want to get a puppy, just cuddle it. But you must remember to heal Xiaoliu's leg! ”

"It turns out that its name is Xiaoliu." Zhong Ziyuan said happily: "Little Liu, you are going home with me." Xiao Liu stared at his wet eyes and squeaked for some reason.

Zhu Fei stretched out his hand and poked its head, and said impatiently: "It's not easy for you to raise a dog, I remember that Yuji still has a purebred Ha Bar, that coat is oily and shiny, but beautiful." Or I'll help you get a hound, that guy is tall and mighty, and it's good to use it to watch the house. It's much stronger than these three-legged tiny dots. ”

Zhong Ziyuan hugged Xiaoliu like a baby in his arms and said, "Don't care, I want this one, and I still expect it to treat people!" She said hello to Chunni, ignored Zhu Fei, turned around and left.

Zhu Fei shook his head helplessly, with a doting smile on the corner of his mouth, and slowly followed

Outside, the leaves of a maple tree were all red, and the golden sunlight cast down through the gaps between the leaves, leaving a fine butterfly-like dazzling spot on the bluestone floor. A gentle breeze blows, the leaves of the trees rise and fall like waves, making a rustling sound, and the spots of light on the ground are about to drift away like colorful butterflies.

Zhong Ziyuan stood under the maple tree and spread out one hand, and a golden spot of light happened to be firmly cast on her palm. Warm, this is a round of shrunken sun is held in the palm of the hand. She was having a good time, Qing'er hurriedly walked over, first curtsied, and then said, "Doctor Jia, my young lady has woken up and drunk medicine, Madame, please come over now." ”

"Okay, lead the way." Zhong Ziyuan straightened the medicine box on his shoulder, bent down and lifted a bamboo basket covered with cotton cloth at his feet, followed Qing'er, and walked towards Liu Yuchan's house.

Inside, the doors and windows were closed tightly, and no wind could penetrate the room, and the house was filled with a rotten smell. Liu Yuchan was lying on her side on the bed covered with white tiger skin, obviously just after a violent cough, her dull yellow cheeks still had a sickly flush, her thin lips were slightly open and panting, and her lips were dyed with a strange layer of light purple. A group of little maids circled around her, and Mrs. Liu sat on the edge of the bed and wept secretly.

I didn't expect Zhong Ziyuan to come so quickly, and Mrs. Liu hurriedly greeted her as if she had seen a savior. Said: "Doctor Jia, what do you think is good?" ”

Zhong Ziyuan had already seen a maid carrying a spittoon out, she glanced at it roughly, and she knew it in her heart, so she smiled and said, "Madam don't worry about it now, can you let me talk to Miss Liu alone?" Mrs. Liu sighed helplessly and was helped out by Ling'er. Only Qing'er and another little maid were left in the house.

Zhong Ziyuan put down the bamboo basket and medicine box in his hand, looked around, and then pointed to a large black lacquer soft-inlaid luodian screen that was originally blocking Liu Yuchan's bed and said, "You two move this screen to the window." ”

"Ahh Qing'er's mouth opened wide in surprise. It was the first time she had seen such a doctor, who was not in a hurry to see a doctor when he entered the patient's room, but was in a hurry to move things.

"Ahh Zhong Ziyuan said unceremoniously: "It was your wife who asked me to treat your young lady, of course you have to follow my method." Hurry up and move. ”

"Yes." Since it was related to the treatment, Qing'er didn't dare to delay, she reluctantly agreed, and then moved up with another little maid.

Zhong Ziyuan then cast her eyes on Liu Yuchan on the bed, and said with a smile: "Miss Liu, we met last night, but I guess you definitely don't remember me." Let me introduce myself again, my surname is Jia, I am a doctor. ”

Liu Yucian showed a shy smile and whispered timidly: "Hello Doctor Jia, my mother told me before." She said thank you for saving my life last night. ”

When Zhong Ziyuan heard this, his heart suddenly became happy. She was afraid that the young lady of Liufu would become extreme and weird because of her perennial serious illness. But now it seems that she is too worried about herself, and this Miss Liu is a gentle and lovely person.

She smiled, sat down beside Liu Yuchan's bed, and said, "Last night was too chaotic, today is the first time we have met, so I brought you a gift." ”

"Gifts?" Liu Yucian blinked her eyes and looked at Zhong Ziyuan with a curious expression. She has little contact with outsiders, and although she is eighteen years old, she still retains a pure heart. Hearing that Zhong Ziyuan had brought a gift to herself, she was immediately interested.

At this time, Qing'er wiped the beads of sweat on her forehead, panted and said, "Doctor Jia, the screen has been put away." ”

Zhong Ziyuan lifted the bamboo basket at his feet, and said without looking back: "Then open the window!" The air in this room is muddy, and it's time for a change. ”

"Ahh Qing'er's face froze, and she said embarrassedly: "But my young lady can't blow the wind, if she opens the window, I'm afraid her condition will worsen again." ”

Zhong Ziyuan said impatiently: "So I asked you to use a screen in front of the window, so that you can change the air in the house, and you will not let the wind blow on your young lady." ”

"But Madame's side won't allow it" Qing'er wrung her fingers in embarrassment, still not moving.

Zhong Ziyuan interrupted her and said, "Madame, I'll talk about it." Don't forget, I'm the doctor, and being a doctor won't harm my own patients. (To be continued......)
