Qiao Guan said: "Father, that was decades ago, he was an official of the Sui Dynasty!" ”

Master Qiao said: "What's wrong with the officials of the Sui Dynasty? The officials of the Sui Dynasty are not officials? If it weren't for the old lady, how would our Qiao family, an official family, come here? ”

"Father! In the capital, there are many officials who are currently serving above the fifth grade! Not to mention that the ancestors are officials from the fifth grade, if you want to talk about it like this, there are even more! Let's expect Qiao'er to marry Jinshi, even if we come one by one according to seniority, I'm afraid that Qiao'er's sixty years of life may not be her turn! ”

Master Qiao looked up at him: "Then what do you say?" ”

"If you see it, you have to do it!"

Old Man Qiao twisted his beard and muttered: "What if he can't pass the Jinshi exam?" ”

"What's wrong with not passing the test? Dad, today's entry into the office, not all of them are tribute to the road, military merits, door shade, honors, and outflow can all enter the office, don't you say that Xiaolang has military merits? And he was canonized by the general, maybe when the court will think of him, isn't it normal to be an official casually? ”

Old Man Qiao sneered: "There are many people who have military merits, how can it be his turn?" The general should have the heart to promote him as an official, and he was promoted as early as Hezhou, so he didn't have to wait until now. - Okay, since they don't care about this matter, let's not mention it, Qiao'er can marry Jin Shilang is the best, if you can't marry, just find a son of a big family with the right family, it is better than marrying a country boy. You and your daughter-in-law hurry up and lead Qiao'er to go, and I won't come forward, so as not to make Zuo Langzhong angry and make things worse. ”

Qiao Guan didn't dare to say any more, bowed down and agreed to come out, looked up to the sky and sighed, called Mrs., came to Qiao Qiaoer's boudoir, and told him that the Zuo family was willing to treat her.

Qiao Guan and his wife took their sister Qiao Qiao'er to the Penglai Inn in a carriage, and when they asked the innkeeper, they learned that Zuo Shaoyang had not come back yet, and they wanted to come to thank Zuo Gui's father, but Zuo Gui's father asked Ding Xiaosan to come out and say that he was not feeling well, and he had already laid down, and when Zuo Shaoyang came back, he would treat the disease directly, and there was no need to see each other.

Qiao Guan knew that Zuo Gui's father was still angry, and he didn't dare to go up and touch his head. I had to wait in the waiting room of the inn.

After waiting for a long time, finally, Qiao Qiaoer heard Zuo Shaoyang and Bai Zhihan talking and laughing at the door of the inn, Qiao Qiaoer hurriedly walked to the door of the waiting room with difficulty with crutches, and saw Zuo Shaoyang coming over with Bai Zhihan from a distance, looking at Zuo Shaoyang in a brocade robe, Qiao Qiaoer knew that the suffering of these days had finally come to an end, and called out sadly: "Brother!" ”

Zuo Shaoyang stood up suddenly, he didn't figure out where the voice came from for a while, and looked around.

Qiao Qiao'er called again, and Zuo Shaoyang's eyes immediately turned over: "Qiao'er!" Is that you? Qiao'er! ”

"Brother, I, I've been waiting for you for a long time......" Qiao Qiao'er's tears fell like pearls with broken threads.

Zuo Shaoyang stepped forward in surprise and stood up suddenly: "Your legs? What's wrong with your leg? ”

"It hurts, I can't move, Doctor Zhen said that I can't save this leg, woo woo woo ......"

Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly stepped forward to support her: "Come, come in and sit down, I'll help you take a look." Where does it hurt? ”

Qiao Guan next to him arched his hand and said: "Zuo Gongzi, under Qiao Guan, this is polite." ”

Zuo Shaoyang glanced at him, and heard that he was also surnamed Qiao, and he looked a little like Qiao Qiaoer, but he didn't smile when he met and greeted him, and he was really as unsmiling as Qiao Qiaoer said at the beginning. Busy nodded: "Hello! Wait a minute! He helped Qiao Qiao'er sit down on the chair, and then arched his hand and said, "Are you ......?" ”

Qiao Qiao'er blinked her teary eyes: "He is my second brother." ”

"Oh," Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Brother Qiao, ah no, Master Qiao, hehe, I heard that Qiao'er said that he has a second brother who is an official in the capital, it must be you, right?" ”

"Exactly, don't you judge Dali."

"Long admiration!" Zuo Shaoyang learned to drag a sentence.

"Don't dare, this is a clumsy jing." Qiao Guan introduced his wife.

Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly bowed his hand. Mrs. Joe returned the salute.

Qiao Guan said: "I often hear my sister talk about Brother Zuo, saying that you are very good at medical skills, and many incurable diseases are medicine to get rid of diseases through your hands. ”

"Hehe, I'm smiling." Zuo Shaoyang said, "Help Qiao'er up, come to my house, see a doctor first and then talk." ”

Mrs. Qiao helped Qiao Qiao'er to Zuo Shaoyang's room and lay down on the bed.

Qiao Qiaoer only wore a pale yellow long skirt, lifted the hem of the long skirt to check the injured leg, Qiao Guan hurriedly retreated outside, and saw that Zuo Shaoyang lifted the girl's skirt straightforwardly, and did not ask, he was a little unhappy in his heart, but he didn't know that Zuo Shaoyang treated Qiao Qiaoer's thigh fracture in Hezhou, and repeatedly applied medicine, and the two of them were accustomed to this action. Anyway, I was wearing a pair of tulle pants inside.

Zuo Shaoyang slowly rolled up the trouser tube, all the way to the root of the thigh, and saw that there was a scar at the original fracture, the wound had healed, and there was no redness, swelling and inflammation, and the wound of punching for external fixation also healed well, but the right thigh was deformed in flexion, which had not appeared before, and he hurriedly asked: "Your original fracture healed well, no problem, what's going on now?" How did the leg bend? ”

Qiao Qiao'er wiped a handful of tears: "I don't know, when I come back, I will be fine, I can walk without crutches, and I can run and jump or something." I don't know what's going on, just two months ago, suddenly it hurts, at first it was the pain in the crotch, the pain was not bad, and then it gradually worsened, and then, the leg turned in the direction of the pain, no matter which direction it turned it hurt, I couldn't sit cross-legged, the pain was so bad that I couldn't walk, so I had to use crutches. My father and my brother took me to the capital to find a lot of doctors to see a doctor, and I took several large baskets of medicine, but none of them were good. My father took me to Hezhou to find you. ”

"You came to Hezhou to find me? How did I not know? ”

"At that time, you were already in the capital. But we didn't know, so we went to Hezhou, and we missed it twice, and when we asked in Hezhou, we knew that you had arrived in the capital, so we hurried back. When I got to the inn, my uncle refused to let you treat me. ”

"Why?"

"Because my father repented of his marriage, my uncle was very angry and scolded my father for being ungrateful. But I didn't know at the time, I heard my father and mother say that you didn't like me and didn't want me to be your wife, so we left Hezhou and came to the capital. ”

Zuo Shaoyang smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid there was some misunderstanding, I didn't make a clear statement at that time." ”

"I know now, I'm sad, I apologize for my father's sins with you, please forgive!" As she spoke, Qiao Qiao'er made a gesture of blessing with both hands on the bed.

Zuo Shaoyang smiled: "What is the crime, it's okay, what does my father say now?" ”

Qiao Guan interjected behind him: "I went to find Old Lady Qu, and after his help to intercede, Ling Zun has promised to ask you to help her sister heal her injuries......"

Qiao Qiao'er looked at Zuo Shaoyang sadly: "If you still hate me, it's okay if you don't ...... cure."

Zuo Shaoyang smiled: "Why should I hate you, it's not your fault." In fact, no one is wrong, get married, the twisted melon is not sweet. You have to be consensual. ”

Qiao Guan interjected behind him: "Brother Zuo's words are extremely right, in fact, my sister likes you very much, and she talks about you at home every day." ”

"Brother! What nonsense are you talking about! Qiao Qiao'er said with tears in her eyes.

"I'm not talking nonsense, did you say it, I used to say how good Brother Zuo was to you, in order to collect medicine for you, he desperately broke through the enemy blockade, went up the mountain to collect medicine, and almost died. Even I, I haven't treated you so well, and said that Brother Zuo comes to your house every day to heal you, talk to you, don't be fierce, and don't discipline you with a straight face, which is much better than my own brother. He also said......"

"Brother!" Qiao Qiao'er heard Qiao Guan say everything she had said before, she was ashamed and ashamed, and her surname covered her face.

Zuo Shaoyang also smiled, and Qiao Guan said again: "You also said that it would be good if you were still in Hezhou, and Brother Zuo would definitely be able to heal your leg injury." My ears are calloused, and so is my father, after listening to your nagging many times, and no one in the capital can treat your leg injury, I sent you to Hezhou to find Brother Zuo for treatment. ”

Zuo Shaoyang said: "It's really not a coincidence, if you know that we have come to the capital, you don't have to run this unjust way." - I'll show you your legs first. How did it start to hurt? Where to start? What kind of pain is it, let's talk about it in detail. ”

"Hmm!" Qiao Qiao'er looked down at her right leg, which had been bent and deformed, and pointed to her hip and thigh sadly: "At the beginning, it was this pain under the waist, around here, and here in the thighs, and here." First it was a faint pain, the pain was good for a while, I didn't care much, and then I still jumped around and didn't care much, and the pain worsened, lying down and sleeping OK, it didn't hurt much, it hurt to get up and walk around, at this time my father and my brother took me to see Langzhong, and saw one family after another, not only did it not cure, but it became more and more serious, and later, it hurt to lie in bed. I couldn't skim my legs out, I couldn't turn around, and it was difficult to squat at first, and later, I couldn't even squat. ”

Zuo Shaoyang nodded, already knowing what was going on in his heart, and asked, "Does it hurt the same when lying down as when you are walking actively?" ”

"It's different, although it hurts to lie down, it's relatively better, and it hurts more when I walk around, so I'm basically afraid to move."

Zuo Shaoyang asked her to get up and walk around, squatting, abducting and bending her legs and feet, and sure enough, the function of her right leg was obviously limited, and her face was deformed in pain.

Zuo Shaoyang helped her lie back on the bed, touching her chin and groaning.

Qiao Qiao'er said with a bitter face: "Brother, my injury, is it that we left last time when my leg injury was not completely healed, and the old injury recurred?" If that's the case, even if it's scrapped, then I deserve it! ”

Zuo Shaoyang smiled: "Nonsense! Your leg was not caused by a last fracture, and the last fracture healed well. ”

Behind him, Qiao Guan asked, "What is the reason for that?" ”
