Chapter 5 Lin'an House

The evening breeze blows, and the night is silent. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

A thin crescent moon hung high in the sky, emitting a faint light, and the entire surface of the lake fell into a pale darkness. Only Lin'an Mansion in the distance is faintly lit and twinkling with the light of the stars.

Meng Fan slowly approached the shore, took a slight breath, and then kicked his feet on the board of the boat, and jumped onto the shore with agility.

Tie the cable of the boat tightly to a willow tree by the lake, and pull it vigorously to confirm that it is firm. Only then did he get on the boat and pick up the dead branches that had been collected and placed in the bow of the boat two days ago.

The small boat that Meng Fan and Lin Xin'er took was not big, but it was not small, and Lin Xin'er spent a hundred taels of silver to buy it a few days ago. At that time, looking at the hundred taels of silver in white flowers, Meng Fan's eyes were shining with wolf light, but he didn't expect that one day, he would be able to fall in love with a little rich woman.

The cabin on the small boat was divided into four compartments, Meng Fan lived in the bow of the boat, and Lin Xin'er lived in the stern room. In the middle, there is a common activity and living area for the two.

In the quiet night, although Meng Fan's movements were very careful, they still attracted the attention of Xin'er's little girl.

"Hey, bad thief, what are you doing?" Curious inquiries were heard from the ship. Meng Fan didn't need to listen with his ears, he knew that this movement was only his beautiful girl who was a scholar in reputation and was actually a supervisor.

"Brother Fan is boiling something, you sleep well. Tomorrow we will enter the Liu family in Lin'an Mansion. Meng Fan turned around and chuckled softly.

"No, I want to listen to my senior sister and watch you, in case you run away." The little girl hesitated for a while, gritted her teeth and said, and with a few leaps in the air, she landed beside Meng Fan silently, staring curiously at the thing in Meng Fan's hand with big eyes.

Don't look at Lin Xin'er's age of only seventeen years old, three years younger than Meng Fan, but her kung fu is amazing, dealing with fifteen or eighteen big men is definitely like playing, even if she meets an ordinary master. At least, this set of light skills made Meng Fan look at the real array with envy.

However, for the reason given by the girl to get off the boat, Meng Fan couldn't help but roll his eyes. You're quite curious, and you want to come and see what I'm playing. If you are really afraid that I will run away, you should agree to my previous suggestion, let's sleep in the same room and watch me.

But the result is good, even if you sleep in a separate room, you have to call you to wake up every morning. Why didn't you think of listening to your sister at that time?

Faced with Lin Xin'er's reason for being so powerful, Meng Fan chose to be silent, as if he hadn't heard this girl's words.

If he chooses to believe Lin Xin'er's reason for slapping his feet, Meng Fan will wonder if his head was kicked by a donkey, and if he chooses not to believe it, he will inevitably be beaten by this little beauty with violent genes.

So, sometimes, silence is golden.

"What are you doing here? Hey, isn't this the herb I bought at the pharmacy before? Watching Meng Fan use the fire fold to light the bundle of dried dry branches, by the light of the fire, Lin Xin'er saw clearly that the thing Meng Fan was holding in his hand was the Chinese medicine he bought in the pharmacy two days ago, and asked curiously.

"Look at it, don't ask, don't bother me." Meng Fan said with an annoyed face, let this girl go to sleep and not sleep, but ran to distract him. This is the highlight of recognizing relatives, and if you can't make it out, there will be some trouble tomorrow.

"Hmph. If you don't ask, you don't ask, I'm too lazy to ask. The little girl pursed her lips and said proudly, ignoring Meng Fan anymore, she looked up at the starless sky with her jade neck high and counted the stars. That look, arrogant like a little swan, caused Meng Fan to laugh.

Lighting the fire, Meng Fan used a branch to simply fix a triangular wooden frame on the ground, and fixed the burning jar he bought before on the tripod, filled the jar with water, and then moved it to the top of the flame.

Xin'er's little beauty planned to ignore this scoundrel and count how many stars there are in the sky, but God is not beautiful. Today's night sky seems to be covered with a black cloth, covering the entire starry sky tightly, except for a shallow crescent moon that emits a faint light, there are no other points of light.

Therefore, Xin'er moved her gaze to Meng Fan in front of her.

Meng Fan divided several medicinal herbs into portions, put them beside him, and quietly waited for the water in the pot to heat up, while in his mind he recalled the recipe that the old man had taught him.

"Scoundrel, you won't be concocting the antidote to your sister's pills, right?" Lin Xin'er suddenly asked with a vigilant face. was so frightened that Meng Fan stumbled and almost fell, and he was really speechless.

Rolling his eyes speechlessly at Little Sister Lin again, Meng Fan showed a vicious look. It's just that this 'vicious' look has no effect on Lin Xin'er at all.

Blinked his lips, and finally sighed silently, before he said, "Xin'er, today Brother Fan will popularize a little medical knowledge for you." Let's take the case of your sister poisoning me. Generally speaking, if you want to prescribe the right medicine, you must first do four words, 'look', 'smell', 'ask' and 'cut'. The so-called 'hope' is to look at the abnormalities of its spirit, color, shape, and state. Look at me, there's not the slightest abnormality on the surface, so what's it. This one, pass. ”

"What do you mean, Pass?" Lin Xin'er asked curiously, it is always interesting to listen to the thief talk, but this 'Pas' doesn't understand the meaning. A few days ago, Lin Xin'er learned a lot of new vocabulary from Meng Fanke. What kind of oak and three grams of oil made Lin Xin'er full of curiosity, where is Meng Fan's hometown, and there are still these strange words. At this moment, when she heard the new vocabulary again, the studious Lin Xin'er hurriedly asked.

"Well, don't worry about these details, the meaning of this word is...", the meaning of this word is really difficult to explain to this little girl here.

"I see, you say 'hope', depending on your condition, there is no abnormality in your body. You must mean 'no'. Am I right? Lin Xin'er's little face flushed with excitement and asked.

"Uh... Ha.. Xin'er is so smart, she guessed it at once. Meng Fan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and the word instantly had a new definition. Yes, the pass of the Great Xia Land will mean 'not right' in the future. Anyway, no one knows about stealing words.

Smiling awkwardly, Meng Fan continued: "The so-called 'smell' refers to the judgment by the abnormal sound of the patient's breathing, coughing, etc. Look at me again, there's nothing out of the ordinary. This one, pass.

'Ask' means that we ask the patient to understand the abnormality of the body. As for me, I don't feel any discomfort right now. This one, pass.

'Cut' is to diagnose the pulse, but I don't have any abnormalities in this one. After speaking, Meng Fan sighed softly.

"Haha, according to your inference, it means that my senior sister didn't poison you at all? It's you who scare yourself. Lin Xin'er on the side blinked and said with a gloating smile.

"Hehe..."Meng Fan showed a smile that was more ugly than crying. Do you believe it? I don't believe it anyway."

"Are you dispensing yourself with an antidote?" Looking at the burning jar and various medicinal herbs in front of Meng Fan, Lin Xin'er became even more curious.

"You treat me as a fool, I don't know what poison I have, how can I prepare an antidote for myself, in case I drink myself to death. I boiled this because I need it tomorrow. Okay, I'm going to be busy, if you're sleepy, you can go to sleep, but don't disturb me again. Meng Fan said helplessly, and then warned Lin Xin'er.

After popularizing simple medical knowledge to Lin Xin'er, the water in the boiling pot has been boiled. Meng Fan didn't speak, but carefully checked the amount of medicine next to him.

Lin Xin'er watched from the side for a while, and saw that Meng Fan just kept adding all kinds of herbs and medicinal powders into the burning jar, and then boiled them, which was really boring. In the end, I couldn't help it, and finally went back to sleep.

And Meng Fan stared at the burning jar seriously, not daring to be sloppy in the slightest. The dosage is limited, and if you can't successfully make a copy, tomorrow's trip will be a little troublesome.

It was late at night, and on a remote shore next to Yingyue Lake, a cluster of sparks swayed in the wind, lining the pale and dim night, and the reflection flickered in Yingyue Lake, flickering and flickering, and finally dissipated between the lake waves. Turned into a wisp of green smoke and went away with the wind.

......

Early morning. Meng Fan yawned and walked out of the cabin, stretching slightly at the bow of the boat, and the red glow reflecting the eastern sky was a few long breaths.

The ancient air is fresh, and the turquoise water is reflected on the surface of the lake, and it seems that even the air is filled with a refreshing freshness.

The red sun had risen early, and Meng Fan slept very sweetly. Touching the medicine bag made in his arms, last night's hard work was finally not in vain, thinking that today was the day to go to Liufu to recognize his relatives, Meng Fan couldn't help but have a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Picking up the oars and swinging them, the boat suddenly leaned towards the shore. Last night, Meng Fan finished boiling the medicine in his hand, and then put the boat back into the lake, and at this moment he leaned the boat in the direction of Lin'an Mansion.

For what is about to happen today, Meng Fan has a faint expectation in his heart.

The boat gradually approached, and the situation on the shore gradually became clearer. Lin'an Mansion is worthy of being one of the important towns in the south of the Yangtze River, it is still early, and there is already an endless stream of pedestrians on the shore. There are also many kinds of boats in the lake, with different sizes and forms. Meng Fan was in no mood to care about these, today was the day when his Young Master Liu went home.

Lin Xin'er handed him a set of silk clothes prepared for Meng Fan. In the Great Xia Dynasty, silk was expensive, and silk clothes were naturally not something that ordinary people could wear. It's just that Liu Fan's identity is the young master of the Liu family, and the Liu family is one of the famous wealthy families in Lin'an Mansion, and the clothes are not sloppy. This is one of the situations that Meng Fan had considered before.

Fortunately, there was a little rich woman beside him, but he didn't worry about the silver taels. With his financial resources, he really only starved to death on the streets.

Now that he is on the list of a little rich woman, Meng Fan is also happy to be a little white face who is raised, although his face is not so white.

Lin Xin'er changed back to the clothes of the little maid again, and now she is the follower of Young Master Liu Fan, and her clothes naturally look like a master and servant.

Meng Fan walked ahead and got off the boat, looking around. It is worthy of being my big Hangzhou, this city wall, this momentum, is extremely spectacular and majestic.

At this moment, Meng Fan is dressed in an off-white robe inlaid with emerald blue, a folding fan in his hand, and he is dressed elegantly, but he has the temperament of a genius in the south of the Yangtze River.

Lin Xin'er behind her looked at Meng Fan, who was constantly looking at the beauties around her, and was angry in her heart for no reason, and pointed at Meng Fan's arm fiercely. This abominable disciple.

"Scoundrel, stop looking around, we should go to Liu's house. If you miss the time, it will arouse the suspicion of the Liu family. You should have written down all the information I told you about the Liu family on the boat. Looking at Meng Fan, who was holding his arms and rubbing them, Lin Xin'er opened her mouth and instructed. The ancestor of the Liu family was also the queen of the generals, although there are no heirs in the army now, those family martial arts have not yet fallen.

"Uh-huh, jotted down, jotted down." Meng Fan hurriedly nodded in agreement. With you, the little tigress, dare I not remember?

Walking into Lin'an Mansion, Meng Fan looked around from time to time, after all, it was the first time he came into contact with the ancient downtown area, and that curiosity naturally did not need to be said, and he didn't know if he had heard Lin Xin'er's words constantly telling him along the way.

Lin'an Mansion, as a rich place in the south of the Yangtze River, has a large population and developed economy, and the streets are crowded with people, and the shouting and shouting are not in the ears, so it is not lively. A prosperous scene.

"Hey, forget it, I'll only go to Liu's house for a while and then improvise. Damn scoundrel, don't just go straight to the gang. Lin Xin'er prayed for Meng Fan a little, if Meng Fan couldn't enter the Liu family, with the temperament of the senior sister, it was really very likely that he would not give him the antidote.

After walking for a long distance in the city, the two of them stopped until they reached a mansion. What is written on the plaque on the lintel is the two golden lacquer characters of the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing - Liufu.

This Liu family, Meng Fan is finally here.
