Chapter 10 The Land of Fireworks is like clouds and rain
Woke up in the afternoon, Yan Qing cleaned up, and came to Huayue Tower, at this time there were very few people who came to Huayue Tower to play, Yan Qing picked up the curtain and entered the lobby of Huayue Building, "This welcomes the son," a woman greeted her, Yan Qing glanced at it, this woman was wearing a pink skirt, painted with light makeup, and a pink jade hairpin was inserted obliquely on the bridle hair, Yan Qing had entered the fireworks field since she went to the south, and secretly thought, the customs of the south and the north are really different, and the bustard mother is so young, "This sister, I want to find someone," "Who are you looking for?" The woman replied while looking at Yan Qing in a white ayaluo, handsome, chic, and really a beautiful man, "Hua Rui," the woman was stunned for a moment, and quickly said, "Who are you" "I am her distant cousin," Yan Qing said as she took out ten taels of silver and threw them to the woman, "Yo, how can the prince be so polite," said on his lips, his hand had already taken the silver tattoo, "Sister Hua is resting in the back, during this time, Sister Hua often has chest tightness and dizziness, and she has been a little bad recently," the woman walked and introduced the situation of Hua Rui to Yan Qing, "Didn't you look for a doctor?" Yan Qing frowned and asked, "Yes, but after taking a few soups, the illness has not lessened, and it is getting worse and worse, and even changing a few doctors has no effect," As he spoke, he had already arrived at Hua Rui's residence, "Sister Hua, your cousin came to see you," the woman said and raised the curtain and walked into the house, "Cousin," Yan Qing greeted, "Cousin?" "The stamen on the bed sat up on the bed, Sister Hua, someone brought it to you, I still have to socialize in front of me, you two sisters and brothers will talk slowly first," After speaking, he gave Yan Qing an eyebrow and raised the curtain and went out.
Yan Qing looked at the stamen's residence, one bright and one dark, there was a coffee table outside, a few chairs, and a piano stand, a guqin was placed on the piano stand, and a pipa, a carved Nanmu bed in the middle, covered with a pale pink Luo tent, a nanmu wardrobe opposite the bed, a lotus picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water hung on the wall, a few flowers at the head of the bed, two pots of rare flowers on the top, a pot of yellow, a pot of purple, it was very good-looking, there was a faint fragrance in the room, Yan Qing looked at the stamens on the bed, Danfeng's eyes were dull, no powder, and his face was a little pale, Rou Yi propped herself up and looked at Yan Qing quietly, "Sister Hua, don't you remember me?" Hua Rui looked at Yan Qing carefully for a while, "Young Master Yan? "It's me, Yan Qing," "Didn't you say that all the people in Liangshan died?" "Thanks to Sister Hua, Xiao Yi is still alive, Sister Hua, what's wrong with you?" Yan Qing asked, "I don't know, it's been more than half a year, I've taken a lot of medicine, but it's still getting heavier and heavier, and I'm dizzy, "Sister Hua, you lie down," said Yan Qing helped Hua Rui lie down, "I heard from a friend, Sister Hua is also on this side of the Qinhuai River, this time, one is to see Sister Hua, and the other is that I came this time to invite Sister Hua to go to my friend, she bought a restaurant in the southern section of the Qinhuai River, and she sent a capable person to be in charge, Hua Rui was surprised after hearing this, "Your friend," "Yes," "Yan Gongzi, this was before, You really look up to me, sister must go, but now sister's body, day by day is not as good as day by day, I'm afraid there is nothing I can do," Hua Rui finished speaking, tears had flowed, Yan Qing pondered for a while and said, "Sister Hua, you see if this will work, I'll go back to find a good doctor, cure my sister's illness, cure my sister's illness in the future, and then go to my friend," Hua Rui listened to Yan Qing's words, tears flowed more, Yan Qing picked up the silk handkerchief and wiped her tears for Hua Rui and said, "Sister, don't cry, I'll go, hurry up and be a good doctor, even if I can't cure my sister's illness, I will also take you away," Hua Rui took Yan Qing's hand tightly, looked at Yan Qing, Yan Qing knew what Hua Rui wanted to say, and said softly: Sister Hua, don't worry, I will be back soon," Hua Rui nodded, let go of Yan Qing's hand, Sister Hua, you can recuperate with peace of mind these days, don't tell anyone about it, wait for the doctor to come, let's discuss what to do, Hua Rui nodded again, Yan Qing turned away, Hua Rui's tears still flowed.
Yan Qing returned to Dulong Fort and came directly to Li Ying's residence, the brothers sat down after meeting and giving gifts, Du Xing heard that Yan Qing was back, and also entered Li Ying's room.
Yan Qing briefly stated the situation of going to Huayue Tower, and said that he wanted to find a good doctor and see a doctor for Hua Rui, Li Ying listened to Yan Qing's statement, "Haha, our little brother Yi, it seems to be a big lucky star," Big lucky star? Yan Qing was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "A few years ago, my mother was sick, and I couldn't find a few doctors, and then I heard a friend introduce me to say that near Nanjing, there is a Niutou Mountain, and there is a master in the mountain, and the incurable diseases are eliminated. Yan Qing was even more strange, shaking his head, Du Xing also looked at Yan Qing with a smile, Li Ying continued: "Du Xing and I couldn't have imagined that that master is our brother," "Brother, who?" Yan Qing interjected, "An Daoquan," "What, An Daoquan," "Yes, it's An Daoquan," Du Xing interjected with a smile, when our brothers met, they were also in tears, I heard that my mother was sick, An Daoquan didn't say a word, followed us to the house, cured my mother's illness, Du Xing and I persuaded him to stay in Dulong Fort, he said that he was used to being quiet, and insisted on going back to Niutou Mountain, since then, I haven't seen him for a few years, Brother Xiaoyi, since you came, no matter what you do, it's so smooth, Du Xing, let people prepare horses, Let's go to Niutou Mountain," "Okay" Du Xing went out after agreeing, "Big brother, I will also go back to Linhu Yaju and go on this trip with Senior Sister," "Okay, we will wait for you in the council hall," Li Yingying said.
Back at Linhu Yaju, Yan Qing came to the teacher's residence and told him about going to Huayue Tower to ask for Hua Rui and inviting An Daoquan. "No, I'll talk about it when An Daoquan comes back," "Okay," the teacher hugged Yan Qing affectionately for a while, "Brother, also go and separate from Zishan and Luluo, otherwise, I will lose you, your little lover, maybe you will be anxious with me," Yan Qing replied in a low voice with a red face, "Got it,"
In the evening, Li Ying and the three arrived at An Daoquan's residence, Du Xing dismounted and knocked on the door, and a boy opened the door and asked, "Who are you looking for?" and "Is Dr. An at home?" "At home, annoying the little brother said, saying that there is a request for a meeting by Li Ying," Xiao Tong looked at the two people behind him again, "Okay, you wait a while," after that, he turned around and closed the door, and the door opened wide for a while, why was the eldest brother so polite when he came, "The words have already walked out, "Doctor An, you see who is coming," An Daoquan looked at Li Ying's finger, "Brother Xiaoyi?" An Daoquan walked a few steps tightly, taking a closer look by the moonlight, "It's really Brother Xiaoyi" hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Yan Qing, the four brothers were full of tears, "Let's go, let's go to the house and say," An Daoquan let go of Yan Qing and invited everyone into the house.
Antao lives very simply, a quadrangle, the front and back of the yard are planted with medicinal flowers and plants, into the room, spacious hall, surrounded by medicine cabinets, there is a consultation table in the middle, the left side of the consultation table is placed with purple shirt reception tables and chairs, and the right side is a simple lotus pond. Inside, the carp brocade twists and splashes from time to time.
Everyone sat down, the maid served tea, An Daoquan said: "Big brother has a lot of things, I came today, I must not be a special trip to see me, there must be something, let's talk about things first, and then drink," and looked at Li Ying, "Li Ying laughed, the brother from Liangshan is happy to speak, Brother Xiaoyi is still you, "After Li Ying finished speaking, he looked at Yan Qing, Yan Qing did not shirk, and said the matter of opening a restaurant in Qinhuai River and inviting Hua Rui.
After listening to this, An Daoquan said: This is all a trivial matter, tomorrow morning while it is cool, I will go to Nanjing with you, my brother's business is my business, tonight our brothers get together, we want to have a good drink, enjoy yourself, what do you say, big brother, "Brother's words, just what I mean," An Daoquan immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare a banquet, the night was very deep, I don't know when I drank, and the four of them fell asleep drunk.......
The next day, Li Ying and the four of them returned to Dulong Fort, and on the way, the four of them also agreed to buy a house for Hua Rui, go to four family members, a housekeeper, and Du Xing was in charge, Yan Qing took An Daoquan to Huayue Tower, and Li Ying waited for news at home.
Coming to Huayue Tower again, the woman saw Yan Qing and immediately greeted her, "Childe, here you are again," Sister, you bothered to take us to my cousin, I invited a doctor to treat my cousin, "Childe, my name is Jiao Niang, you can call me by name in the future," After speaking, he glanced at An Daoquan again, and walked towards the back, picking up the curtain and entering the house, Sister Hua, your cousin is here again, and I also invited you a doctor, my cousin really loves you," Hua Rui heard that Yan Qing was back again, and she was excited, Yan Qing took out ten taels of silver and handed it to Jiao Niang, "Sister." , you are busy, I will look for you again if there is something, bother, Jiao Niang took the silver and smiled and said: Okay, if you have something to look for me, take a good look at Sister Hua," said hello to Hua Rui, and left.
An Daoquan entered the house, smelled a trace of aroma, very faint, walked to the stamen, sat down, looked at the stamen, after a while, An Daoquan stood up, walked to Yan Qing and said: "Brother Xiaoyi, the disease of the stamens is chronic poisoning, poison, I can solve it, but she can't live here, I want to help her recuperate for a few days, these days, don't be idle, find out who wants to harm the stamen, why?" Yan Qing was stunned after hearing this, hurt Hua Rui, this is if you don't meet it, you really have to take care of it, Yan Qing thought about it, walked to Hua Rui's side, and sank for a while, Hua Rui began to see An Daoquan after seeing her doctor and didn't speak, she was a little puzzled, and when she saw Yan Qing and the two of them, she went outside to talk, and her suspicion was even heavier, this time she saw Yan Qing again, standing beside herself and not speaking, knowing that her suspicion was right, she said to Yan Qing quietly: Yan Gongzi, my illness is not cured, you don't have to be too careful, your heart for your sister, your kindness, I will definitely repay you in my next life," Yan Qing smiled when she heard what Hua Rui said, "Sister Hua, I want to discuss something with you," "What's the matter?" Yan Qing continued: "I want to take you away today, find a place to live first, this doctor will help you recuperate for a few days, after you are ready, I will buy you a house and decorate it, and I will invite the owner here to come after a while, saying that your illness has not been cured in the near future, and I want to take you home to recuperate, the owner is estimated to let you go, do you think this is okay?" Hua Rui looked at Yan Qing, didn't speak for a long time, only shed tears, Yan Qing saw that Hua Rui didn't speak, just looked at herself blankly, so she said: "Sister Hua, you don't want to," Sister is willing, I don't know what to say? "Okay, I'll go find Jiao Niang and ask her to invite your host," Blossom nodded.
Yan Qing walked into the lobby and saw Jiao Niang, who was laughing with the girl in Huayue Building, so she stepped forward to greet Jiao Niang, "Sister Jiao Niang," all the girls looked up with the voice, and saw that Yan Qing was shocked by Yan Qing's handsomeness and chic, Jiao Niang saw that it was Yan Qing, and hurriedly stood up, "Son, is there something?" "There's something to do, please do my sister a favor," Jiao Niang didn't speak, and a girl in the crowd said: "Jiao Niang, you can't help, I can, I will definitely satisfy my son," after speaking, she giggled, and the other girls also laughed, "Go, do whatever you have to do," the girls coaxed together, and they all ran away.
Yan Qing said to Jiao Niang: "My cousin's illness, the doctor just saw it, it will not be good for a while, it will be treated for a while, the doctor is far away from here, I want to take my cousin to the doctor's house, so it is also convenient to recuperate, I want to ask my sister to invite the owner, I will tell him, take my cousin," Jiao Niang listened to Yan Qing's words, "Okay, you wait here, I will come when I go," Jiao Niang walked upstairs after speaking.
After a while, a fat woman in her fifties came down from upstairs and walked up to Yan Qing, Yan Qing stood up, and Jiao Niang hurriedly introduced, "Sister Yu, this is Sister Hua's cousin," and pointed to the fat woman and said to Yan Qing: "This is Sister Yu's boss lady here."
The fat woman glanced at Yan Qing, her eyes were straight, and she said to Jiao Niang: Change a new cup of tea for the son, this son will also sit, and the son's surname is noble? The two sides sat down, "My name is Li Qing, this time I passed by here, look at my cousin, who knew that she was sick, I found a doctor, the doctor told me that my cousin's illness is difficult to cure, I didn't dare to say this to my cousin, I only said that I took her to the doctor's house, and it would be cured after a period of treatment, so I thanked the owner for taking care of my cousin, and what I said was best kept secret," After listening to Yan Qing's words, the fat woman was not surprised, because the results of the previous invitations were similar to what Yan Qing said, but when Hua Rui was managing here, They made a lot of money, and they were embarrassed to drive the stamen away, but now that Yan Qing is here, she is really a savior, but she still pretended to be very frightened and said, "So serious? I thought it would be better to raise it for a few days, who knew that it was like this, and also to figure out what kind of disease I had, alas, the stamen has a hard life, since the son has taken it, you can take her away, but it cost her a lot of silver taels to treat her during this time, and the silver taels she accumulated on the cabinet are not enough, childe, you see? After listening to the fat woman's words, Yan Qing said: "How much is my cousin poor Huayuelou," not much, not much, fifty taels is enough," Yan Qing took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels from her bag and handed it to the fat woman and said: This is one hundred taels, of which fifty taels are repaid, and the remaining silver taels are thanks to the care of Huayuelou, the owner is not too little, the fat woman took the silver ticket and said with a smile on her face: "A lot, a lot," Then, she told Jiao Niang to help Hua Rui and pack up the things that should be brought, Jiao Niang nodded with tears.
Jiao Niang wiped away her tears and came to Hua Rui's room with Yan Qing, "Sister Hua, tell the owner, the owner will let Jiao Niang help you pack your things, after cleaning up, let's go, you pack up first, I'll go outside to find a carriage," Hua Rui nodded, and Yan Qing and An Daoquan went out.
When he got outside, he said to An Daoquan: Brother, you go back to Dulong Fort first, let Du Xing prepare a place to live, can't let her meet with the teacher, and when the house she bought is decorated, she will move over, An Daoquan said after listening to Yan Qing, when you pack up your things, don't touch the two pots of flowers, I suspect that the disease of the stamen is in the two pots of flowers, these two pots of flowers are Western flowers, named tulips, this flower fragrance is poisonous, it is chronic, I once saw a poisoning like this, some things, when I arrived at Dulong Fort, I will talk about it in detail, Yan Qing listened to An Daoquan's analysis, Immediately understood what An Daoquan meant and nodded. An Daoquan will go back to Dulong Fort first.
Yan Qing found the carriage and returned to the stamen room again, the luggage had been packed, Jiao Niang had taught a few men to help take the luggage outside, Jiao Niang saw that Yan Qing was back, picked up the stamen and walked outside.
When they arrived at the lobby, the girls all gathered around, and when they heard that Hua Rui was going to leave Huayue Building, they all said goodbye with tears, because Hua Rui was usually very good to them, Hua Rui got into the carriage, and the luggage was loaded, Yan Qing called Jiao Niang over and asked: Sister, I want to ask, who put the two pots of flowers in my cousin's room in the room, "Speaking of those two pots of flowers, it should have been a while, or a year ago, a son said that he liked the stamens, and after a while, he sent two pots, almost a year, and it has not been broken," "He sent it himself?" Yan Qing asked, "No, it was all sent by the next person later, and that son has not come back since that time left," Yan Qing frowned and said, "I begged my sister for one thing, the matter of Hua Rui's departure, don't talk about it first, don't move the furnishings in that room first, okay?" Jiao Niang pondered for a while and said, "Yes," "Thank you, sister," Yan Qing thanked her, took out two ingots of silver, which were enough for a hundred taels, and handed them to Jiao Niang, Jiao Niang excused herself: "Li Gongzi, you have given me twenty taels of silver, this little thing, you don't need to give it, not to mention that you have to treat Sister Hua, it will also cost a lot of money,", sister, this silver is Sister Xie, and the other is to let Sister Tell Sister inside, my cousin will keep it a secret before leaving,
Third, in the future, I still have to ask my sister, "Jiao Niang couldn't shirk it, and accepted the silver." Then he waved his hand to the stamen on the cart, and the carriage left.
The carriage entered Dulong Castle, stopped in an independent house, two maids came out of the house, Fu Huarui got off the carriage, and slowly entered the house, at this time An Daoquan also came over.
Entering the house, Yan Qing asked Hua Rui to lie down, and then asked: "Sister Hua, let me ask you one thing first, do you have any enemies in Nanjing?" "Enemies? No," Yan Qing pointed at An Daoquan and said: His name is An Daoquan, he is my Liangshan brother, he has been an imperial doctor, and he is known as a miracle doctor in the rivers and lakes, he told me that Sister Hua is chronically poisoned, and the source of the poison comes from the two pots of tulips, "Hua Rui was stunned when he heard it, someone wants to harm himself?" Why? Hua Rui pondered for a while and said: "If you want to say that the enemy family doesn't have it, but I have been here for more than three years, and the business of Huayue Building is booming, I heard that the business of several families is not as good as before, are they trying to harm me?" Those two pots of flowers, a year ago, there was a rich disciple, said that he liked my beauty, but he already had a family, so he gave me two pots of Western flowers, at that time I looked very beautiful, so I accepted it, put it at the head of the bed, whenever the flowers are about to fall, someone will send two more pots, so there has been a year, to be honest, I am quite moved in my heart, and sometimes there are some strange thoughts, "Yan Qing listened to Hua Rui's narration, and the matter also understood that it was not far from ten, "Sister still remembers the appearance of that son?" "I don't remember," Yan Qing knew that she couldn't ask anything else, so she said to Hua Rui: "Sister Hua, live here during this time, this is my friend's home, Dr. An will detoxify and recuperate for you, I will hurry up and decorate the accommodation I bought for you, and then move over." ”
After speaking, he looked at An Daoquan and said, "Brother is here to hand it over to you," Brother Xiaoyi, you have something to do, busy with your business, you can rest assured here," Yan Qing nodded, and then took out some broken silver and handed it to Hua Rui, "Sister, you take these silver taels and keep them for those servants," "Yan Gongzi," Hua Rui couldn't speak, she couldn't stop crying, Sister Hua didn't cry, I should go, after saying goodbye to An Daoquan, I left.
