320. Hospitality

When Shi Jiqing arrived at Xu's house, Xu Xiaole was reading in the study, so he saw the legendary sister-in-law Tong Wanqing first, and he was so panicked that his eyes almost fell off. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info When he forced himself to turn his head away to look away, he saw Hu Meiniang again.

If Tong Wanqing is just eye-catching, then Hu Meiniang is soul-sucking.

Shi Jiqing had no choice but to use the excuse of seasickness and go outside for a walk. Who knew that walking in the small courtyard of the Xu family, he bumped into Mei Qing and Feng Xiang, who were also first-class beauties. After all, these two look like maids, but they won't embarrass Shi Jiqing, even if they look at it twice, it's not too rude.

Xu Xiaole met Shi Jiqing downstairs and said strangely: "Hey, why are you surging with blood, your face is red like this." As he spoke, he was going to check Shi Jiqing's pulse.

Shi Jiqing was afraid that Xu Xiaole's skills would be mysterious, so he could see through his heart, so he hurriedly dodged and said with a smile: "I heard that your medical hall was opened, and I came here to congratulate you." ā€

Xu Xiaole was stunned: "I didn't open a medical center." He then felt that it was wrong, he had been sick at home for a long time, how could he call the hospital not open, so he added an explanation: "I don't charge a fee for consultation at home, just to make it convenient for the neighbors, and they can also help me do something." You see, I'm the only man in the family, and I'm a little unreliable. ā€

Shi Jiqing laughed: "Xiaole, you are really a good gimmick, you have to laugh with you." ā€

Xu Xiaole didn't feel how humorous he was, he smiled, and said, "Brother Shi will go to the front with me to drink tea, and hang out in the patio for something." ā€

Shi Jiqing explained to Xu Xiaole as he walked: "Some people in the city said that you resigned from the post of pharmacy ambassador, retired from the Changchun Hall, and returned to Mudu to reopen the Xu Medical Center, but it turned out to be a false rumor. ā€

Xu Xiaole groaned and said, "It's not all rumors. ā€

He told Tan Gong that he wanted him to go to Jingshi to enroll in the Tai Hospital, and explained that he did not withdraw from the Changchun Hall hall, but he did not sit on duty, and still claimed to be a doctor of Changchun Hall. If there's a need, I'll help. As for the Xu Medical Center at home, it is also ambiguous and difficult to define whether it is reopened.

"So, one and a half of these three things are right." Xu Xiaole said.

Shi Jiqing stopped talking. It wasn't until the two of them entered the hall hand in hand and sat down with the guest of honor that he said, "Xiaole, I think you have done a bit of Meng Lang in this matter." ā€

"Oh?"

Shi Jiqing said: "If you want to get ahead in my dynasty, the only way is to go to school. We studied for the imperial examination in order to enter the prefecture and county to learn the national sub-supervisor, and the middle and junior scholars to enter the Hanlin Academy. If you go all the way to medicine, if you want to glorify your ancestors and become a doctor, you can only enter the hospital as a medical student. At this point, Tan Gong is really paving the way for you. ā€

Lotus Ye came in and delivered tea, and his ears had already heard it, and he glanced at Xu Xiaole.

Xu Xiaole said: "I know Tan Gong's kindness, but I can only understand it." If I want to go to Beijing for three years, and then I don't know where I will be assigned to become a medical officer, this is really a young and old man who has left home. ā€

Shi Jiqing frowned slightly: "A good man has ambitions in all directions." ā€

Xu Xiaole said: "I still have too many things to do in Suzhou. As for being an official, my ancestors may not be rare, ha, ha. ā€

Shi Jiqing laughed dryly twice, and was thinking about how to persuade him, when he heard the sound of gongs and drums outside, as if someone had won the champion.

The sound of gongs and drums did not stop until the door of Xu's house, and after a while, someone came in to report that the Zhou Mansion had sent a congratulatory gift.

Xu Xiaole went out to greet him, and saw that the person who came was Miss Caiwei. He took two quick steps, stepped forward and smiled, "Why is my sister here?" ā€

Cai Wei said: "My grandmother heard that you opened a medical hall by yourself, so she asked someone to make a plaque. As she spoke, she asked people to lift the plaque, only to see that under the big red silk flower was a black background with gold letters: Apricot Forest Spring Warmth.

Shi Jiqing stepped forward to take a look and applauded: "These four words are appropriate, and Xiaole's medical skills are really well deserved." He struck the palm of his hand with a folding fan again: "This word is also very good." ā€

Cai Wei said: "This gentleman is knowledgeable. The character was written by a young scholar named Shen Zhou in Cheung Chau. My lord said that in another 50 years, his words will become the world's teachers. ā€

Shi Jiqing didn't believe in the prophecy fifty years later, but he still praised two sentences along the way. There is a way that calligraphy and painting are not separated, he has a talent for painting, and he is not a layman in calligraphy.

Xu Xiaole just watched the excitement, so he asked someone to hang the plaque in the hall.

Cai Wei went in and swept the hall and said, "You really don't have anything in this middle hall, why do you put a table in the middle?" Is it for eating? ā€

Xu Xiaole said confidently: "Of course." ā€

Cai Wei was about to ask: Is there no dining room? She then thought: Yes, Xiaole's family is not rich, there must be none, it is really embarrassing to ask.

Shi Jiqing saw that someone brought it up, so he smiled and said, "I also wanted to ask just now, Xiaole, you have earned so much money, don't you want to build another room?" ā€

Xu Xiaole said helplessly: "I think that I have a high consultation fee and make a lot of money, and I have a lot of places to spend money." ā€

Shi Jiqing knew that Xu Xiaole himself had been making up for the side of the Dome Mountain, so he said, "Yes." Tell me, just like that, it's not good for you to be an official and ask your family to suffer together. ā€

Tong Wanqing happened to come in, and when she heard this, she was a little unhappy, and said with a smile: "Our family has no worries about food and clothing, and the wine and food are casual, what kind of hardships have you suffered?" Isn't Shi Xianggong aware of the principle of contentment? ā€

Xu Xiaole laughed, relieved Shi Jiqing, and introduced Cai Wei to Tong Wanqing.

Cai Weifu saluted, and raised his head to carefully examine Tong Wanqing's face. Because Tong Wanqing is taller than ordinary men, and Cai Wei is a typical Jiangnan girl, with a petite figure, you have to look up to her.

Cai Wei sighed: "My sister is really like a female bodhisattva in the temple." ā€

Tong Wanqing was suddenly embarrassed and said: "My sister is also very beautiful, and people who don't know still think it's a fairy in the sky." ā€

If a beautiful woman sees a beautiful woman and does not have a grudge at first sight, she can often sympathize with each other. The two soon joined hands, as if they were reunited.

Shi Jiqing waited for Tong Wanqing and Cai Wei to go out, and then wiped a cold sweat from his forehead: "It's the foolish brother Meng Lang." He pretended to sigh: "It turns out that it's all this time, and the foolish brother will leave first." ā€

Xu Xiaole said: "When is this time?" It's not enough for lunch yet, so let's eat and go. ā€

Shi Jiqing suspected that the Xu family's meals were also mixed with men and women. He didn't mind, he just felt embarrassed. Think about it, being surrounded by a group of beautiful women, but not being able to laugh or speak, this is simply purgatory on earth! So Shi Jiqing said: "No, I also asked Zhao Gongzi to visit the lake, and now it's just right." ā€

Xu Xiaole was about to say a few more polite words, when he heard someone shouting outside: "The eldest prince of Zhao Mansion, the waiter of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, came to visit Mr. Xu!" ā€

Shi Jiqing's face was red with blood, and he couldn't wait to get into the cracks of the bricks.
