"When is the master going to leave?"

"Don't be in a hurry, after a few **** first send your wife and Pingping back to their hometowns, buy some land, and then come back to tidy up Linzhitang, and there are some patients who want to complete the diagnosis and treatment of their diseases, and when they are done, I'm afraid it will take half a year, then you should also go to Beijing to take the exam, and one of my biggest patients has finally been cured."

Lin De solemnly slapped Zhang Huan on the shoulder, and said with a slight smile: "After you are admitted to the Jinshi, it is best to come to Shuzhong to be an official, so that we can be together again, and we can also take care of our Lin family." ”

Zhang Huan nodded, "Definitely, I will definitely come to Shuzhong." ”

Lin Delong shook his head, looked into his eyes and said firmly: "I'm just joking, Shuzhong is too leisurely, it will raise people to be lazy, I don't want you to come to Shuzhong, I hope you go to the Western Regions to be a man who stands up to the sky, completely sweep away the great trouble of Hui, and establish immortal merits for my Tang Kingdom."

The master's words made Zhang Huan's blood boil, and a wave of ambition that he had when he was a teenager rose in his heart again, and he couldn't help but blurt out, "Master, if there is really that day, will you come to help me?" ”

Lin Delong's face suddenly became extremely serious, he stared at Zhang Huan, and said slowly for a while: "I have been observing you since you were seven years old, your personality is very complex, you have a kind and helpful side, but there is a trace of cruelty and viciousness in your bones, I don't know what kind of person you will become in the future, if what you do is for the benefit of the country and the people, I will come to help you, but if you do something that harms the people......."

Lin Delong glared at him and shouted, "Then I will definitely come to take your life in person!" ”

The air suddenly froze at this moment, and suddenly, there was a grievance at the door: "Da Lang, you will scare the child if you are so fierce." ”

Although it is a complaint, but the voice is gentle, like the spring breeze in March, suddenly swept away the solemn atmosphere in the room, the door curtain was raised, and a middle-aged woman in a cloth skirt came in, although she was dressed simply, but her posture was gentle and atmospheric, and the thin crow's feet at the corners of her eyes could not hide her beautiful face when she was young, she was Lin Delong's wife Yang Yuniang.

Her mother's surname is Yang, Lin Pingping said that her mother was from a prestigious family, and Zhang Huan once suspected that she was born in the Yang family of Shu County, but his master was just a low-status doctor, how could this be? That's just the idea, but now that the identity of the master is not so simple, things are a bit complicated.

Zhang Huan didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly got up and gave a long salute, "Master!" ”

Yang Yuniang smiled and nodded to Zhang Huan, then turned back to her husband and said, "Da Lang, there are already patients arguing in the store, go and take a look!" ”

Lin Delong realized that he had asked the patient to wait for a quarter of an hour, but now it was almost half an hour, and he was sorry in his heart, so he patted Zhang Huan's shoulder and walked quickly.

"Master, please take a seat!" Zhang Huan hurriedly took a cushion for his wife to sit down, Yang Yuniang sat down, put a small bag on the desk casually, looked at Zhang Huan and said, "I went to see your mother in the morning." ”

Yang Yuniang and Zhang Huan's mother have the closest relationship, the two were often together long before she left home, and after Zhang Huan's mother left home, she also often visited.

"How is my mother now?" When it comes to his mother, Zhang Huan's nose is a little sour, and after the weak crown ceremony, his mother issued a strict order, if he doesn't take the Jinshi exam, he will never see him, and now their mother and son haven't seen each other for two years.

Yang Yuniang sighed slightly, "Your mother's cough has recurred, and she is almost out of breath." ”

Zhang Huan's heart was stabbed by a knife, his eyes were slightly red, and he stood up and bowed his hand to Yang Yuniang, "Master, I want to say goodbye first." ”

"Wait!" Yang Yuniang stopped him, "I have already asked you Second Uncle Lin to dispense medicine, and there is still a lack of taste, so he went to borrow it elsewhere." ”

"Yes!" Zhang Huan gradually calmed down, his mother was prone to asthma attacks in late summer and early autumn, although the master helped her to treat her, but she has not been able to remove the roots, almost once a year.

"Come on! You sit down, my wife still has something to say. ”

Yang Yuniang ordered Zhang Huan to sit down, pointed to the small bag, frowned and said: "This is a little rock candy I prepared, I asked Pingping to bring it to your mother just now, but she went there, but she forgot about it." ”

Speaking of this, she sighed faintly: "This child has been his father since he was a child, and he said that he let her be her temperament, but look at it, what has become of her now, she loses three or four all day long, and she is crazy, no one in Taiyuan City knows, how she will marry in the future, hey!" I'd be relieved if I had her sister. ”

Lin Pingping's sister is called Lin Qiaoqiao, she is beautiful, gentle and virtuous, and she went out of the cabinet last year to marry the son of the county lieutenant of Zhao County, Taiyuan, named Zhao Yan, is a student of the government-run Taiyuan Academy, and will also enter Beijing next year to take the exam, and has a good relationship with Zhang Huan.

Zhang Huan shook his head and said: "Master, although Pingping is a little arrogant, she is really cute, especially kind-hearted, and it is a blessing to marry her, so I don't have to worry about her." ”

"Do you really think so?" Yang Yuniang glanced at Zhang Huan deeply, a hint of relief flashed in her eyes, and she hurriedly turned her face to get rock candy to hide the smile on the corner of her mouth.

"I grew up with Pingping, so I naturally know her." Zhang Huan knew his wife's thoughts, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, this is impossible, he grew up with Lin Pingping, although he also likes her, but this kind of liking is not that kind of like, the wife of his dream is not like Lin Pingping.

At this time, someone knocked on the door, and a medicine boy said outside the door: "Mastermother, the shopkeeper has prepared the medicine and ordered me to send it." ”

"Okay, the medicine is at the door, you go to see your mother!" Yang Yuniang stood up and handed him the rock candy, "Your mother actually wants to see you, Zhongjinshi's words are just an encouragement to you, don't take it to heart." ”

"Thank you, Master!" Zhang Huan gave a deep salute and hurried away with rock candy and medicine.......

Zhang Huan's mother's place of ordination is called Jingxinguan, located in the east of the city Huishifang, the Taoist temple occupies a large area, but only more than 20 female Taoist monks are ordained here, they are all from famous families, some are because of old age and fall out of favor, some are young widows and have no intention of remarrying, because the monks are noble, Taiyuan Mansion Yin specially sent a few officials to patrol the surroundings day and night to prevent idlers from harassing them.

Zhang Huan hurried to the Taoist temple, but happened to see Lin Pingping walking dejectedly, knowing that she remembered rock candy, so he dodged and hid behind a tree.

"Pingping!" Zhang Huan jumped out in one step, held a packet of rock candy in front of her, and said with a smile: "Are you worrying about it?" ”

Lin Pingping was pleasantly surprised, snatched the rock candy, looked up and down carefully, and saw that it was intact, so he patted his chest and said: "I thought it had fallen, but I didn't expect it to be picked up by you, it's really lucky, otherwise my mother asked, and I wouldn't be able to answer." ”

Zhang Huan couldn't help but laugh and said, "If I found it, how would I know that you lost it?" ”

Lin Pingping was stunned, his face turned red, and he said expectantly: "It turns out that I forgot it at home." ”

"Have you seen my mother?"

When Zhang Huan thought of his mother, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and he asked a little nervously, "Is she better?" ”

"Yes! My aunt listened to my nagging for a long time, and she laughed! ”

Lin Pingping closed his eyes, with an expression of adoration on his face, "Aunt is the most noble woman I have ever met, she is always so soft-spoken, I feel so comfortable with her, her smile is like, just like ......."

Lin Pingping opened her eyes, she bit her lip, and couldn't think of a suitable word to describe it for a while, Zhang Huan's mind was no longer on her, he heard that his mother's health was improving, his heart relaxed, and he waved his hand to interrupt her words: "Okay, you go home first!" I'll give you the money tomorrow. ”

Lin Pingping saw that he was a little cold to himself, so he silently handed him the rock candy and smiled reluctantly: "Okay then!" I went home first. ”

But as soon as she walked a few dozen steps, she suddenly turned around, bent down and shouted loudly: "Zhang Huan, my aunt's smile is like water, a spring stream, there is no woman's smile in the world as gentle as her, I like her!" ”

shouted, there were tears in her eyes, she turned her head and ran away, Zhang Huan looked at her back, and was a little stunned.
