Chapter 44: A son-in-law and a half-son

Although he was not despised by Mulan, Zhao Junsheng was hit hard, and he secretly decided that he must be determined to practice martial arts hard after going back.

A breakfast is very simple, but very exquisite, millet porridge with pancakes, and pickles, Zhao Junsheng's body has gradually recovered in the past few days, and his appetite has increased a lot, and he drank two bowls of millet porridge in a row and ate a cake.

Outside the door, the burghers had already prepared the carriage, Mulan Niang had already prepared a change of clothes, money and dry food, and Hua Mulan and Zhao Junsheng carried Hua Arc into the carriage together and let him lean on the carriage and sit down.

Before leaving, Hua Mulan said to Zhao Junsheng: "Brother Junsheng, you are coming to Huajiabao for the first time, and I originally wanted to keep you for a few more days······

Zhao Junsheng hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's important to treat Uncle Hua, there will be many opportunities to come back in the future, you can rest assured if you hand over Uncle Hua and Aunt to me, take care of the affairs of Huajiabao with peace of mind, go and see Uncle and Aunt when you are free, I will keep a room for you!" ”

Hua Mulan nodded and said, "Well, Grandpa and Auntie will trouble you!" ”

"What do you mean by saying these kind words to me? Well, it's not getting early, we have to rush back to Suiyang City before it gets dark, otherwise we will have to be carried away by mosquitoes after spending the night outside the city! Zhao Junsheng took the whip and got on the horse.

Hua Mulan talked to Ah Niang for a while, and Hua Yuan took a maid and reluctantly got into the carriage. In addition, there are maidservants riding horses, one is called Xiaoqing, the other is called Honglian, their needlework skills are very good, Zhao Junsheng is going to leave them in the garment shop as tailors, sewing clothes for customers who make custom clothes, but they want to meet his standards and need him to teach a few stitches, and they can only do it after they are practiced.

Huajiabao is seventy or eighty miles away from Suiyang City, Hua Arc and his wife sit in the carriage, considering Hua Arc's physical condition, the carriage can not go too fast, and the whole team can not move fast, this seventy or eighty miles of travel took a whole day to complete, and finally entered the city before the city gate was closed.

Back to the garment shop, Zhao Junsheng called Feng San and several castle soldiers of Huajiabao out to help, under his arrangement, everyone worked together to clean up a few empty rooms, and spread clean straw mats on the beds, smoked spices to drive away mosquitoes, and he took the coachman to drive the carriage to the Hexingtang Medical Center to invite Zhang Zhongjing's descendant Zhang Jingxuan to the garment shop for Hua Arc diagnosis.

"Sir, please, this is it, the sick is my father-in-law, it is the castle owner of Huajiabao eighty miles away, the day before yesterday I was stimulated by a stroke, my hands and feet can't move, and my speech has also been affected, I have to trouble you to bother to give my father-in-law a good look, if you can cure his old man, there must be a heavy thank you!" While introducing the situation, Zhao Junsheng invited Zhang Jingxuan and his apprentice with the medicine box into the backyard of the shop.

The three of them walked into the room, and Zhao Junsheng hurriedly introduced Hua Arc who was sitting on the bed and Hua Yuan who was standing aside: "Uncle and aunt, this is our Mr. Zhang, who has the most skilled medical skills in Suiyang City, and Mr. Zhang is the descendant of the divine doctor Zhang Zhongjing!" ”

Hua Arc and his wife hurriedly said to Zhang Jingxuan: "It's a big night, I'm causing trouble to Doctor Zhang!" ”

"Don't dare to be called two miracle doctors! The old man should show the owner of the flower castle first! Zhang Jingxuan said humbly, he looked like a fairy, sat down on the stool brought by the maidservant and began to diagnose the pulse of the flower arc.

After the pulse diagnosis was completed, Zhang Jingxuan checked the flexibility and movement of Hua Arc's limbs again, and asked Hua Arc to say a few words before he said to Zhao Junsheng and Hua Arc and his wife: "The situation of the Lord of Hua Castle is not particularly serious, if it is serious, it will not work on the spot." However, it is impossible to completely restore to the previous appearance, if you recuperate well, you can recover the ability to speak, and you can also recover the ability to take care of yourself, as for how long it will take, it may take a year to take the effect of taking medicine and the care of your family, it may take a year, it may also take two years, you still have to be psychologically prepared! ”

Zhao Junsheng hurriedly said: "As long as there is hope for a cure, then ask the divine doctor to prescribe medicine, if there is anything that needs attention, taboos, etc., please ask the divine doctor to say it clearly!" ”

"Good!" Zhang Jingxuan agreed, took out the pen and ink to prescribe the prescription, and said while writing: "At the beginning of the half month of taking the medicine, the family members should frequently massage the whole body of the flower castle master every day, he can not move when he lies down, the flow of qi and blood will inevitably weaken and be blocked, if you do not carry out massage to help accelerate the flow of qi and blood, the limbs and muscles will soon atrophy, after half a month, you can help him get up and walk a few times a day, each time in more than a quarter of an hour, no matter whether you can use the strength or not, you must let him go, you must insist!" After walking, the number of massages can be reduced, but it should be more than three to four times a day, and each time it should not be less than two quarters of an hour! Later, the old man will teach you a set of massage methods, and you can just follow it. Also, try to eat less foods that are too greasy! Take a pair of medicines first to try the effect, and the old man will come back in ten days! ”

"Okay, okay!" Zhao Junsheng agreed again and again. After learning the method of massage, he paid for the consultation and medicine, and sent a coachman to send Zhang Jingxuan's master and apprentice back to the hospital.

Watching the carriage go away, Zhao Junsheng remembered that he had to make up his mind to practice martial arts, so he went to the carpenter's shop, the blacksmith's shop, and the stonemason's shop, and customized stone locks and stone barbell plates in the stonemason shop, a weapon rack and a wooden wheelchair in the carpenter's shop, and a fitness equipment rack, barbell pole and eighteen weapons in the blacksmith shop.

The next day, before dawn, Zhao Junsheng opened his eyes and got up from the meditation and started exercising.

There was no one on the dark street, he ran along the city wall, he ran out of breath after running less than a mile at first, and his lungs were about to explode, but he quickly adapted to the breathing rhythm of running, it seems that there is still some progress in cultivating internal strength these days, at least during strenuous exercise, breathing can quickly adapt to the rhythm of exercise.

After running around the city wall twice, Zhao Junsheng was already sweating profusely, as if he had just been fished out of the water, the whole person seemed to be falling apart, unable to lift up the slightest strength, and rested for a quarter of an hour before relieving himself a little.

He practiced ten sets of Tempest Swords in a row on an uninhabited wasteland on the edge of the city wall, and the more he practiced this swordsmanship, the slower and slower his movements became slower and slower due to the severe loss of physical strength, until he fell to the ground from exhaustion.

When he dragged his tired body back to the garment shop slowly, it was just dawning, and at this time, the mother-in-law Hua Yuan had already gotten up and was cooking with the maidservant, and was surprised to see him come back: "Junsheng, who are you?" ”

Zhao Junsheng smiled and said, "I went out for a walk early in the morning while it was dark, and I moved my muscles and bones!" Auntie, why do you wake up so early? ”

"I'm used to it. The meal is almost ready, so come over for breakfast when you're done washing! Hua Yuan said with a smile.

"Good!"

Zhao Junsheng washed up and had breakfast.

He came to Hua Arc's room, saw that Hua Arc was so bored that he closed his eyes and recuperated, and said with a smile: "Uncle, when Dr. Zhang taught massage last night, my little nephew also remembered it, and my little nephew came to do a massage for you!" ”

Hua Arc woke up: "No······ Not good······ You, a ······ Big man, do this······ Not good! ”

Hua Yuan, who was scrubbing the furniture, also hurriedly said, "Your uncle is right, how can you let a big man do such a thing?" You've got some business to do, go ahead and get your hands dirty! ”

Zhao Junsheng directly stretched out his hand and began to massage the flower arc, and said with a smile while doing his hand: "This little time can still be squeezed out!" Besides, am I not the son-in-law of your second elder? It is said that a son-in-law is half a son, and your second elder treats me as a son! Even if there is no relationship between Weng and son-in-law, Uncle Hua is still my grandfather's brother in life and death, I have to have this filial piety! ”

Hua Arc and his wife saw that Zhao Junsheng was serious and did it seriously, not pretending, and they were quite pleased.

Zhao Junsheng's internal force in his body is not deep enough, and he only used up after a few minutes, and the rest is basically purely used up in accordance with the method and acupuncture point position taught by Zhang Jingxuan, although the effect is not as good as the use of internal force, but it is still very helpful for the promotion of qi and blood.

After working for more than half an hour, Zhao Junsheng sweated again before finishing the massage.

Hua Yuan took a towel and handed it to Zhao Junsheng, "Come, look at you, you're tired, your body is soaked, wipe your sweat!" ”

"It's all right, auntie. It's a good thing to sweat more, my body was too weak before, now I have to move more, I'm ready to practice martial arts, although I may not be able to practice anything famous, but I can make my body strong! Zhao Junsheng smiled and took the towel to wipe his sweat and said.

At this time, a burger walked in and said, "Uncle, there are two officials outside, saying that they are looking for uncle!" ”

Zhao Junsheng said to Hua Arc: "Uncle, you rest, I'll go see what's going on!" ”

When he came to the shop in front, he saw Feng Sanzheng nodding and smiling with the two officials, and asked, "It's Zhao Junsheng below, what's the matter with the two of you?" ”

One of the officials looked at Zhao Junsheng and said, "The county magistrate Chang has invited the shopkeeper Zhao, please ask the shopkeeper Zhao to wait with me!" ”

As soon as Zhao Junsheng heard it, he knew that Chang Hai's revenge was coming, and Chang Wei had seen him before he was knocked unconscious. He groaned, knowing that it was a blessing or a curse, and that he couldn't avoid it! So he promised: "Okay, please wait for a while, and I'll change my clothes!" ”

"Then hurry up, our brother can wait, but the county master can't wait!" The other official said viciously.

Zhao Junsheng turned around and left, he came to the backyard room to change out of his soaked clothes, thought about putting on the official uniform that had just been issued, put on the official hat again, took off the waist knife from the wall and hung it on his waist, and then slowly walked to the front hall and said to the two officials: "Two, let's go!" ”

The two officials were dumbfounded when they saw him wearing an official uniform and hat, and the two looked at each other, both knowing that something was wrong, they originally thought it was just a flat-headed common man, but they didn't expect it to be an official, and they didn't know how big this official was.

"Let's go, don't let the county master wait, the official has important things to do when he sees the county master, and the time of the official is delayed, and the official can't spare you!" Zhao Junsheng put on a pretentious appearance and shouted.

"Oh, yes, yes, please!" The two officials hurriedly bowed down in fear and asked Zhao Junsheng to go first.

Zhao Junsheng took the reins and turned over on the horse, and galloped towards the direction of the county government, so tired that the two officials ran behind and were out of breath.

Running all the way to the gate of the county office, a standing guard ran over and saluted and asked, "May I ask what is the official night?" What is the important thing to come to the county office? ”

Zhao Junsheng raised his nostrils and shouted: "The official's name is Zhao Junsheng, the order of General Shouwan is to serve as the post of Fa Cao in the Taishou Mansion, it was your county lord who invited the official to come, take care of the official's horse, if something happens, the official is the only one who asks!" After speaking, he threw the reins to the officer, and walked in with a swagger towards the county office.
