Chapter 317: Night by the Stone Mirror River

Zuo Shaoyang returned to the pharmacy, and his mother had already prepared the meal. Although their family moved to live in the Qu family's old house, because Zuo Gui's father usually had to diagnose patients, he was in Guizhitang during the day. Originally, Bai Zhihan usually cooked, but now Bai Zhihan followed Zuo Shaoyang to work in the field, so Liang cooked himself.

Now there are chickens, ducks, fish, pigs and cattle given by the general at home, and it is not worrying to eat meat. But Liang was used to it and refused to kill poultry, or Zuo Shaoyang, in order to recover his father's body as soon as possible, threatened to eat meat every three days, otherwise he would not eat, so Liang caught one every three days and killed it to cook.

Although Miao Peilan and Mrs. Qu and Aunt Li, who watched the back door, were all working alone, the Liang family made meat dishes, so they would each share a bowl. The two families were grateful, thinking that Miao Peilan, Bai Zhihan and Zuo Shaoyang would eventually be a family in the future, so they accepted.

Because there are good dishes and the family has some money, every time the Liang family eats meat, he puts a cup of wine on it and gives it to Zuo Gui's father and Zuo Shaoyang.

Zuo Shaoyang returned to the house, washed the mud off his hands and feet first, and after changing into a robe, Liang had already set the meal.

Zuo Shaoyang was tired for a day and felt hungry, smelled the fragrant food, and saw that what he made today was boiled fish, and a small cup of wine, he couldn't help but move his index fingers, went to the offering table and lit a stick of incense, made three folds, carefully inserted them, and then sat on the bench and reached out to grab the chopsticks, and suddenly saw his mother's complaining eyes, so he retracted his hand. -- The rules of the Zuo family, Daddy Zuogui doesn't sit down and say to eat, and the rest of the people are not allowed to move chopsticks.

At this moment, Zuo Gui's father sat behind a long number of cases, looking at a book of medical skills, which was a hodgepodge written by Zuo Shaoyang to him, which mainly contained some scriptures and prescriptions in later generations, as well as famous medical discourses. Zuo Gui's father watched it with relish, and forgot to eat.

Zuo Shaoyang raised his head and said, "Dad!" Let's eat first, or the food will be cold, Dad! ”

After screaming twice in a row, Zuo Gui's father woke up like a dream, stood up, took the medical book into his arms, stroked his beard, raised his head and thought about it, then he shook his pace step by step, sat down on the small bench on the upper seat, and said, "Have you given incense to the ancestral tablet?" ”

"Salute." Zuo Shaoyang said, "If you forget to eat fragrantly, you can rest assured." ”

"Well, Zhong'er, the medical book you wrote really works, two days ago, for my father to a patient with spleen and stomach qi deficiency, according to your medical skills on the 'tonifying in the qi soup' prescription, it really works, this afternoon to come to the follow-up visit, the condition has been great, grateful, said that after their family is sick, they all came to our pharmacy to see a doctor." Hehehe"

Father Zuo Gui stroked his beard and said with a smug smile.

Zuo Shaoyang wrote a medical book to Zuo Gui's father in detail about the composition and compatibility of this formula, the main symptoms, the key points of dialectic, and the changes with the addition and subtraction of the syndrome. Zuo Gui didn't pay much attention to it at first, just looked at it as an idle book to relieve boredom, but then encountered a few illnesses, there was nothing to do, turned over the medical book and used it according to the above prescription, and it actually received great results, and his interest suddenly increased, so he began to read it seriously.

After healing many people in a row, he was even more like a treasure, holding this medical book in his arms, as long as he was free, he took it out and memorized it, and boldly practiced, and when he didn't understand, he humbly asked Zuo Shaoyang, Zuo Shaoyang always patiently answered doubts.

Zuo Shaoyang was trapped on the top of the mountain for two months, although the people were busy with their livelihoods, but because Dr. Ni, a famous doctor from Huimin Hall, sat in Guizhi Hall for consultation, there were still some patients who came to Guizhi Hall for medical treatment. Dr. Ni let Zuo Gui's father diagnose and treat some simple cases, and he gave his own guidance, and Zuo Gui's father sometimes felt that Dr. Ni's prescription was not as good as that in Zuo Shaoyang's medical book, so he adjusted the medication by himself, and the effect was obvious. Dr. Ni thought it was his own guidance, so he didn't ask much.

After studying hard in the past few months, Zuo Gui's father realized that his medical skills had made great progress compared to before. I watched it more diligently, and even reached the point of forgetting to sleep and eat.

Zuo Shaoyang was naturally very happy to see his father so studious, but now his stomach is protesting, but he can't care about medical problems, seeing Zuo Gui's father sitting down, his heart is happy, in a blink of an eye, seeing that Cao'er and Ding Xiaosan are not at the table, knowing that these two must have hid in the kitchen to eat again.

After Zuo Shaoyang came back from the top of the mountain, he learned that the little girl Cao'er he had saved, since her mother had taken her as a personal maid, she had been waiting by the side when she was eating, and she would eat the rest when they finished eating. In those two months, there was only medicinal porridge, and there were no dishes, so it couldn't be served on the table, and it was just a bowl of porridge after eating first, so it didn't matter.

When Zuo Shaoyang came back from the top of the mountain, especially after the general rewarded some chickens, ducks and fish, the food was relatively sufficient, and he could make decent meals to eat, Xiaocao was still like this, Liang couldn't look past it, so he forced her not to stand aside and wait, and asked her to eat with her, and gave her a big bowl of rice, so she squatted in the kitchen to eat. It's just that Liang doesn't give her food, she definitely doesn't pick it up by herself, just eats dry rice. So every time Liang eats, he takes a big name to serve her rice, and then sandwiches a bunch of dishes for her to eat.

Bai Zhihan's identity is very special in the Zuo family, although her identity is a slave, but she is the future daughter-in-law in the minds of Zuo Gui's father and the Liang family, especially after Qiao Qiaoer leaves, she is the only choice. Therefore, neither of them treated her as a slave. When eating, she had to follow a table to eat, Bai Zhihan had no choice but to obey.

And after the little guy Ding Xiaosan came, although the guy was different from the slave maid, he couldn't eat on the table, so like Cao'er, Liang also used a big bowl to serve him a bowl of rice, sandwiched a few large vegetables, and then ate it with Cao'er in the kitchen.

After Zuo Shaoyang came back and found out, he talked to the second elder a few times, and persuaded Cao'er to eat at the same table a few times, but the two refused to live or die, so they let go and ran back to the kitchen, so they had to give up.

Zuo Gui and his wife, Zuo Shaoyang and Bai Zhihan sat in the four corners of the square table, drinking and eating. Liang asked Bai Zhihan, "Zhi'er, how are you cultivating today?" Tired, right? ”

"Not tired." Bai Zhihan smiled and said, "I heard Brother Li and Miss Miao say that the young master's new plough is very easy to use, more convenient and easy to use than the original one, especially if you only need one cow to plow the land, we divide it into two batches, and the speed is much faster." Brother Li, they said that they would plough the land in the spring tomorrow, and they would also do the same. ”

"Really?" Liang was always very happy to hear that his son Zuo Shaoyang had done something that people would praise, but seeing Zuo Gui's lukewarm expression, he was indifferent to this matter, and knew that Zuo Gui did not approve of his son Zuo Shaoyang's farming, so he didn't dare to follow along. Diverting the topic, he said to Zuo Shaoyang: "It won't be long before your father's fiftieth birthday, we originally wanted to fight, but we were afraid that this birthday would not be overcome, now it's okay, we have to give your father a good birthday." ”

Zuo Shaoyang said: "Okay, invite more people to be lively." ”

Zuo Gui's father said: "It's not good, now it's all wasteful, everyone's family background is not solid, what kind of birthday do you want to do, and you have to let the family break the bank, or just eat something casually as a family." ”

Zuo Shaoyang said: "Let's set up two tables, only invite some people close to us, and explain that no gifts will be accepted, and those who give gifts will be returned." In this way, people don't break the bank, and they can have a lively birthday. ”

"This ......" Zuo Gui stroked his beard and thought about it, the ancients cared about longevity very much, not to mention the whole life once every ten years, if there is no special situation, it will definitely be done. Then he said: "That's fine, don't call too many people." ”

Liang heard Zuo Gui agree, and said happily: "This matter will be arranged for my uncle to do, he is an expert in doing this." Zhong'er is still able to see a doctor, these don't understand. ”

"Okay." Zuo Gui nodded.

After eating, Bai Zhihan and Cao'er cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and Zuo Shaoyang slipped out from behind under the pretext of going to the thatched house.

It was already dark at the moment, there was no moon, and with the light from the houses on both sides of the alley, it was still possible to distinguish the road. Along the alley, he smeared and came to Seifuji Temple.

Entering the Qingfeng Temple, it was still deserted, and the abbot of Zhikong and several senior brothers sat cross-legged on the dilapidated hall, chanting scriptures. When I saw someone coming in, I didn't even lift my eyelids.

Regardless of whether they looked at themselves or not, Zuo Shaoyang still said hello, looked around, and didn't see Huang Qin's figure. -- Women are like that, they always have to be a little late, as if this is how they can reveal their identity.

Zuo Shaoyang slowly went up to the bell tower of the temple, and it was here that he and Xiao Yunfei talked last time, quite quietly.

After waiting for a while, I heard the sound of small footsteps entering the temple, and a pretty figure stood in the courtyard and looked around. Zuo Shaoyang recognized it as Huang Qin, and said softly: "Hey! Upstairs! Come on top! ”

Huang Qin looked up at the black shadow on his bell tower, and was about to go upstairs, but stopped again, looked at the few monks in the main hall who were still reciting scriptures in a low voice, shook his head, and also whispered: "You come down!" Let's go to the river and talk! ”

Zuo Shaoyang had no choice but to come down from the bell tower, follow her through the back door of the temple, step on the pebbles of the river beach with one foot high, and come to the Shijing River.

This place is already hundreds of feet away from the two-story small building by the river where Zuo Shaoyang and Xiao Yunfei are eating. In the dark night, the temple and the small building were no longer visible.

Huang Qin found a relatively flat stone and sat down, and patted the position next to her: "Sit!" ”

This dark night water by the river, empty and empty, he didn't dare to sit next to Huang Qin, otherwise once he was seen and spread out, it would be difficult to say.

"I'll just sit there." Zuo Shaoyang sat down on a stone not far from her, "Say it." It's almost curfew, but you can't delay. ”
