Chapter 5: The Boss of the Zhen Family

Dr. Xie is a half-white-bearded old man, and his medical skills in Songjiang City are among the best, and he is quite respected by the people in this vicinity.

As soon as I came in, I saw the woman panting and screaming, Dr. Xie was picked up early in the morning, and his mood was not very good, and now he was even more depressed, "What are you men doing in a daze, hurry up and persuade your wife, the medical hall is not a place for your Zhen family to quarrel, if you want to quarrel, take it out and quarrel slowly!" ”

These middle-aged men were all blushing when they were told by Dr. Xie, and they were all busy persuading Mrs. Zhen not to be angry.

Mrs. Zhen stared at the boss of the Zhen family standing at the door of the clinic, seeing him standing straight at the door with his head bowed and pursed his lips, his expression on his face was cold, and her heart was even more uncomfortable, she trembled and pointed at her eldest son angrily, "Rebel, don't kneel down yet!" ”

The boss of the Zhen family stiffened, but he was still standing in place, not moving, and the young man in the room couldn't look at it, "Big brother, my mother is angry, you just kneel first, and when your mother sees a doctor and dissipates her anger, I will naturally forgive you, can we be sons and have trouble with our mother!" ”

"Boss, don't make your mother angry anymore, kneel down!" This time it was a slightly chubby middle-aged man who spoke this time, this middle-aged man is Mrs. Zhen's husband and the biological father of Zhen Hanxiao, the boss of the Zhen family.

Zhen Hanxiao raised her eyes and glanced at the family members who were crowded into a room, and finally her eyes fell on her parents, Mrs. Zhen was angry, her husband frowned, Zhen Hanxiao pulled out a sneer, and finally bent her knees and knelt on the cold and hard floor tiles.

Seeing that the boss was soft, Mrs. Zhen seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief. glared at him fiercely, and then under the service of his three husbands, he lay down on the hospital bed and was treated by Dr. Xie.

Lou Zheng, who was standing on the side of Shopkeeper Liu, secretly glanced at the kneeling boss of the Zhen family.

Zhen Hanxiao's face was cold, his slightly drooping eyes were cold, his hands that were gently placed in front of his knees were clenched very tightly, and the joints were blue and white, obviously trying his best to suppress his anger.

The boss of the Zhen family looked handsome and handsome, with a slender figure, and Mrs. Zhen didn't know when she was just carried in. There was also unfeigned concern on his face. doesn't look like an unfilial person, why would he make Mrs. Zhen so angry, regardless of his face, he has to teach this eldest son a lesson in front of outsiders.

Lou Zheng was curious. But he's not a nosy person. She stood beside Shopkeeper Liu in a proper manner. was about to retract his gaze, but met the cold and hard gaze cast by the boss of the Zhen family, and Lou Zheng was excited by this gaze. Hurriedly glanced away.

Zhen Hanxiao just glanced away with a cold glance, just Lou Zheng insisted on saving his mother despite everyone's opposition, he had a good impression and admiration for this shabby young man.

"Doctor Xie, how is my wife?"

Dr. Xie touched his half-length beard, nodded, and did not answer the question of the Zhen family's husband, but turned his head and asked the shopkeeper Liu: "Did someone look at it for Mrs. Zhen just now?" ”

Shopkeeper Liu was stunned for a moment, thinking that Dr. Xie was blaming. He hesitated for a moment, and before he could speak, one of Mrs. Zhen's husbands beside him pointed angrily at Lou Zheng: "Doctor Xie, this kid is the doctor that this kid has seen my wife, if there is anything wrong with my wife, I will immediately send him to see the official!" ”

Lou Zheng didn't shirk it, and stood up generously, "I cured Mrs. Zhen's illness just now." ”

Doctor Xie frowned and glanced at Mrs. Zhen's husband unhappily, "This old man don't say a few words, if your wife wasn't for this little brother, you would have to prepare for the future at this time." ”

Doctor Xie didn't give any face when he spoke, and the embarrassed face of the middle-aged man who had just said it turned red.

After Lou Zheng's first aid, this Mrs. Zhen has passed the dangerous period, and now she is just prescribing a prescription for conditioning and going home to recuperate, without much trouble.

Dr. Xie wrote a prescription and asked the Zhen family to take it to the front hall to grab the medicine, and left the consultation room with Lou Zheng, the shopkeeper of Liu.

The Zhen family didn't stay long in the Xinglin Pavilion, and they also let the family drive the carriage to pick them up.

This toss, the morning market in the West Market is coming to an end.

Lou Zheng was just about to say goodbye and leave, but was left behind by Dr. Xie.

"Little brother, thanks to you today, otherwise it would not end well if you provoke this Zhen family."

Doctor Xie looked Lou Zheng up and down, the young man's face was dirty, his clothes were shabby, and he looked at him from a bad family, but his eyes were good, clear and clear, which made people feel that this child was pure and kind-hearted.

"It's just a matter of effort."

"The little brother is a local? Who taught this technique? ”

Lou Zheng had the intention of staying in this medical hall, listening to Dr. Xie's question, of course he knew everything, "My father is Langzhong, my fur is taught by my father, but the doctor does not treat himself, my father died of illness last year, I left home, and I recently came to this Songjiang City to sell herbs for a living." ”

As soon as Lou Zheng said this, Dr. Xie had already made up for it, his father died of illness, and the young man was squeezed by other brothers at home, and had to go out alone to make a living.

This situation was very common in the Great Song Dynasty, and some women had to marry seven or eight men in their lifetime. If a boy is born, no one will take the child seriously except for the child's biological father. Once the father is gone, there are many brothers in the family, and the brothers grow up to marry wives, so they have to accumulate a lot of money.

Of course, it is difficult for these brothers to get along with each other.

There are countless examples of the disadvantaged being excluded or even kicked out of the house, so most of the men in the Great Song Dynasty are precocious, and some of them have to learn the skills of the door at the age of about ten, just to enrich their employment and be able to marry a good wife in the future.

"What do you call the little brother?"

"The surname is Lou Zheng, the iron-clad Zheng, Dr. Xie can call me Ah Zheng, my father used to call me that."

"Well, that's a good name. The little apprentice I brought recently came out of the school, and there is a shortage of manpower, if the little brother Ah Zheng is fine, I don't know if he is willing to help. ”

Lou Zheng didn't expect Dr. Xie to invite her to follow her as a buddy, it was only a quarter of an hour away from Xiao's Mansion, which was convenient for her to observe the movements over there, how could Lou Zheng refuse.

"Thank you, doctor, I'll come to the hospital when I'm settled."

Lou Zheng carried an empty bamboo basket on her back and wanted to go to the West Market to buy some daily necessities, and before leaving, Dr. Xie told her not to contact the Zhen family.

I bought a change of old clothes and some cheap dry food in the West Market, and in the evening, with the help of Shopkeeper Liu, I rented a simple house in the courtyard facing the street for 50 yuan, which was temporarily used as a place to stay.

I agreed with Shopkeeper Liu and Dr. Xie that I would go to work in the Xinglin Pavilion on the second day, and the salary would be the same as Tian Qi, who helped to catch the medicine in the medical hall, 500 wen a month.

Lou Zheng slept for a few days, although this temporary nest is simple, but at least there is a bed and a quilt, and you can also boil hot water to take a bath and laundry, after she cleaned up, plugged in the door, and finally could sleep comfortably for a night. (To be continued......)
