Chapter 8 Recruitment

The next day, Lu Jinping took Ye Qingqing to send a decoction and porridge to Miss Gao in the morning and in the afternoon.

In the evening, Miss Gao's spirit seemed to be better than before, and they were able to have a short conversation with Mrs. Gao. This made Old Lady Gao and his wives and concubines even more happy.

And so it went on for two days.

After taking Lu Jinping's medicine for three days in a row, Miss Gao was able to get out of bed and walk slowly in the house with the support of the maid. Old lady Gao's heart was overjoyed, and seeing his daughter getting better day by day, he sighed that this young man was really like a god, and he could cure diseases that even the imperial doctors in the palace couldn't cure.

The third aunt said to Mrs. Gao: "Master, you said in the previous notice that if the man who cured his daughter's illness is young and has not yet married, he will be recruited as a son-in-law, I think the young doctor who treated our daughter is good, should we discuss this matter?" ”

She spoke in front of Miss Gao, and Miss Gao was suddenly ashamed and embarrassed, covered her face with her hands, twisted her body and said, "Mother, look what you say!" ”

Seeing that her daughter could be coquettish, the third aunt was even more happy, and said: "It is natural for a man to marry and a woman to marry." You are the only flesh and blood of our Gao family, and it is also your responsibility to recruit a son-in-law to join our Gao family to inherit the family business. This young miracle doctor, at a young age, has such excellent medical skills, even the imperial doctors in the palace are compared to the past, and the future is limitless. If you marry such a person, we will be relieved. There is hope for our Gao family, right, sir. ”

Old lady Gao smiled, stroked her beard and nodded, "Exactly!" Good daughter, the last time the miracle doctor saw you, you were drowsy and didn't see clearly. He sent medicine in the past two days, saying that it didn't work better, and there was no need for follow-up, so he didn't come in to see you. You're afraid you haven't looked at him closely, have you? Tomorrow morning he will come to deliver the medicine, and I will invite him in, and you will see if he likes it. Then we will talk again, and if we don't like it, we will reward him heavily. If they like it, they'll recruit him, okay? ”

Miss Gao's face was already red to her neck, and she said, "My daughter doesn't know, it's all up to her father." ”

Mrs. Gao on the side also smiled and said: "She said so, that is, she agreed, I think this young doctor is also good, tomorrow I really want to ask him about his net worth, if he is worthy of our family, it is good to be rich, if his net worth is not clear, he still needs to be cautious." ”

The second aunt said: "Looking at him like that, he should be from a poor family." - Actually, it's nothing, he has such medical skills at a young age, why is it difficult for him to become rich and wealthy in the future? Our lord used to be a servant of the ministry, and if we want to support him, I can't help it. In the future, if you become a doctor, you will be able to match our daughter, right? ”

In a word, a room full of people laughed. Miss Gao was even more ashamed to cover her face in the quilt and didn't dare to look at people.

In the afternoon of this day, Lu Jinping came to deliver the medicine again, and the old lady Gao still greeted him at the door in person, and said, "Divine doctor, the little girl can already get out of bed and walk slowly." It's just that the old man thinks that it is better to ask Mr. to go in for a follow-up consultation. How is it? ”

Lu Jinping said: "If that's the case, then I'll go in and have a look." ”

After that, Lu Jinping took Ye Qingqing into the mansion, and when he came to Miss Gao's room, he saw a room of people sitting there, looking at him with a smile. When he came in, Old Lady Gao's original wife and two concubines all got up to give a gift, Lu Jinping hurriedly returned the salute, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, and glanced at Miss Gao.

At the moment when Lu Jinping entered the house, Miss Gao looked at him several times. But when Lu Jinping came over, Miss Gao's face was as ashamed as a red cloth, but she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him. Hold out your wrist for him to check his pulse.

Lu Jinping didn't need to check his pulse at all, he had already seen that Miss Gao was in good spirits and was recovering smoothly, and it seemed that his speculation was completely correct. If this development continues, in two more days, you will be able to tell the truth to Old Lady Gao.

After Lu Jinping pretended to diagnose the pulse for a while, he said, "The girl's illness has been cured. How's the appetite now? ”

Miss Gao glanced at Lu Jinping quickly in shyness, and quickly lowered her head, and said in a soft voice: "My appetite is better, but the gruel is not hungry, and sometimes I wake up hungry at night after eating, and I don't let my aunt cook it for me." I had to be hungry until dawn, and you sent something ......"

Lu Jinping smiled and said: "It's my negligence, when I come at noon, I'll send you some white rice and dishes, three meals a day, you can eat normally." ”

"Okay!" Miss Gao nodded and whispered, "Thank you, Childe, for saving your life." He raised his eyes again and glanced at him quickly, and quickly turned his face sideways, only to feel that his face was full of scarlet.

Lu Jinping felt that something was wrong, smiled and stood up, and said to the old lady Gao: "The body is recovering very smoothly, if you continue like this, take medicine for another two days, and you will almost recover." ”

Old lady Gao thanked him repeatedly, personally sent Lu Jinping and Ye Qingqing outside the courtyard gate, and after seeing them away, she turned around and returned to her daughter's boudoir.

At the door, I heard laughter inside, presumably a few wives and concubines were making fun of their daughters. After entering, I heard the third aunt say to Mrs. Gao: "Master, we asked just now, and my daughter is very satisfied with the young miracle doctor, you can mention the marriage to him." ”

Old lady Gao looked at her daughter, Miss Gao had already gotten into the quilt and covered her head, obviously very shy.

At that moment, the old lady Gao smiled and said, "In this case, when he came at noon, I mentioned this matter to him."

Lu Jinping took Ye Qingqing to the old mansion, and Ye Qingqing whispered: "Sir, why do I think they are a little sneaky, are they going to recruit you as a son-in-law?" Old lady Gao said it in the medical notice. ”

Lu Jinping frowned and said, "Don't you open any pot and mention which pot, okay?" Will my dignified founding county man be a door-to-door son-in-law? It must be clear that the media is marrying the family, otherwise, I will be the son-in-law, so what will my Lu family do? I am also the only flesh and blood of my Lu family. If my son changes his surname to Gao, how can I inherit my Gao family incense? What kind of face will I have to see my great-grandfather in the future? ”

Ye Qingqing smiled and said, "That's right, it's Qingqing who is too worried, but what if they bring up this topic?" ”

"Leave him alone, if he really wants to bring up this topic, I will naturally have some reason to say it and politely decline. Okay, let's go to the vegetable market to buy some meat and vegetables, now that we have money in our pockets, we can go back and cook some delicious food for Miss Nagao on the one hand, and we can also open meat by ourselves on the other hand. ”

I went to the vegetable market to buy meat and vegetables, as well as condiments, and returned to the old house.

When it was almost noon, Lu Jinping asked Ye Qingqing to be in charge of decocting the medicine, while he himself cooked the dishes.

When a few plates of exquisite dishes were placed on the table, Ye Qingqing was stunned, took a bite with chopsticks, sighed, and said to Lu Jinping: "Sir, why didn't I know you could cook?" I'm still joking at you, it turns out that it's really delicious! No way, I follow you every day, but I've never seen you get down to the kitchen with a shovel, when did you learn it? ”

Lu Jinping smiled and said, "Didn't I say it? There are many things that I will surprise you, so let's be surprised in the future, come, let's eat first, and then send food to Miss Gao after eating. ”

Ye Qingqing said: "Let's just be afraid that the food will be cold after eating, it doesn't matter if we eat cold, but Miss Gao is everyone's best girl, and she is sick, it is not good to eat cold, otherwise, sir, you eat first, I will send medicine and food, and I will eat it when I come back." ”

Lu Jinping put down his chopsticks: "You have some truth in what you said, okay, then let's go deliver the food first, and then eat later." ”

"I'll just go, sir, you stay and eat by yourself, otherwise it won't be good for you if the food is cold."

"When did you see the lord eating alone from you? The two of us share joys and sorrows, breathe and share fate, go together, go back together, eat together, that's fragrant! ”

When Ye Qingqing heard this, she smiled and said, "Since that's the case, let's go first." ”

Ye Qingqing filled the decoction in a can, packed the food in a food box made of bamboo, carried it, followed Lu Jinping out, and went straight to the old lady Gao's house.
