Chapter 113: Aging Sickness
The temperature in mid-April was still a little cool in the morning, Xu Liang pushed open the window, and the sky was overcast, and the clouds were wrapped in moisture, which made people feel depressed.
What's more, Xu Liang was already in a bad mood at this time.
The early stall vendors on the side of Dongmen Street, the early shops that had just opened for business, and the craftsmen who hurried to the workshop to do their work, were surprised to see the middle gate of the mansion of Lord Xu, the chief bookkeeper of Jianchang, wide open, and six horse-drawn carriages roared out one after another, scattering in all directions, and the whip of the coachman resounded throughout the entire Dongmen Street.
People can't help but speculate that something big happened to Xu Fuzhun. People who have lived in Dongmen Street for a long time know that since Lord Xu moved to this house, although the pomp and circumstance are larger, the guards are in groups, and the sedan chair is carried in four ways, except for a few dog officials who are not in a good state of mind, in fact, Lord Xu gives people the impression that he is quite kind, and there are several times when the cart stall on the street blocks the way, and Lord Xu's sedan chair also stops, and the stall owner cleans up and then walks slowly.
Xu Mansion made a fuss early in the morning, and this is the first time that this big movement has occurred.
Xu Liang sent the people in the house to invite a more famous doctor in Jianchang City, and instructed the kitchen to prepare some light food for Feng Suqin, and when he returned to Feng Suqin's room, he touched the cold hands of the beautiful woman, and asked Xia Er to get the new quilt and change it over.
Feng Suqin watched Xu Liang work hard for himself, and her heart was sweet.
"Eat more, won't you?" Seeing that Feng Suqin drank two mouthfuls of porridge and put it down, Xu Liang couldn't help but say with concern, "If you are full, your illness will heal quickly." ”
"I'm bored, I don't want to eat."
"Then let's not eat it yet, lie down and rest."
"It's tiring to lie down, Xu Liang, you can talk to me."
"Okay." Xu Liang nodded, thought about it and said, "Then you have to lie down first." ”
After Feng Suqin obediently lay on the bed and comfortably cushioned it with a quilt, Xu Liang moved a low stool and sat on the edge of the bed.
“……”
Xu Liang realized that there was no topic to talk about for a while, so he scratched his ears and cheeks, and said something?
Feng Suqin showed Xu Liang's embarrassment, and said funny: "Or, tell a story." ”
"Ah, okay." Xu Liang said embarrassedly: "I want to think about it." ”
"Then I'll tell you a story about the heavenly palace, I don't know that thousands of years ago, the three clans of demons and immortals coexisted in the world, and the demon clan had a leader called the Bull Demon King, in order to compete with the emperor of the immortal clan for the hegemony of the world, a big war was carried out, when the sky and the earth changed color, and the sun and the moon were ......."
Feng Suqin listened, although Xu Liang said stumblingly, the plot was disjointed, and the preface did not match the afterword, thinking that there would be someone in this life who was willing to make up stories for himself.
In fact, what Xu Liang is talking about is a movie that later generations have watched, but the time has passed, and many plots have been forgotten, and when it is finally said that when the monkey named Sun Wukong took a golden hoop stick named Ruyi from the bottom of the East China Sea, a girl came in to report that the doctors invited arrived.
Xu Liang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, so he asked the doctor invited to consult Feng Suqin.
Xu Liang didn't understand this traditional Chinese medicine technique, and saw that the seven famous doctors from Jianchang who came from the house got together to mumble and discuss after looking at and hearing about it, nodding for a while and shaking their heads in embarrassment.
Although Xu Liang didn't understand, he also saw that he was afraid that Feng Suqin's illness was a little troublesome.
Eventually, the group of doctors seemed to have a good discussion, and an elderly doctor came forward to report the results of the consultation.
"How?" Xu Liang asked eagerly.
The gray-haired old doctor pondered his words, stroked his long beard with his hand, and said in a heavy tone: "Returning to Lord Xu's words, after the joint diagnosis of several of us, we unanimously confirmed that Miss Feng was caused by the cold entering the body and invading the internal organs. Originally, qi entering the body mostly occurs in autumn and winter, the human body is cold, cold, stagnant and even cold condensation meridians, excessive cold, and the heart is fired, then heartache, palpitations, and limb convulsions ......"
"Oh, my old man." Xu Liang interrupted: "It's useless for you to tell me this, and I don't understand, just say it directly, how to cure this disease, and how long can it be cured?" ”
"Uh," the old doctor was stunned, his face was embarrassed, and he said slowly: "My lord, originally this cold into the body is not a harmful disease, but Miss Feng's situation is different, in the old man's view, Miss Feng's disease is not caused by occasional cold, most of it is old and tired, at that time, it may be a small wind and cold, failed to pay attention to it, day by day, accumulation, aggravation, one day the disease is out of control." ”
Xu Liang's heart tightened when he heard this, and he asked nervously: "According to what you say, there is no rule of law for Suqin's illness?" ”
The old doctor shook his head with a sigh and said: "The art of medicine and stone can cure diseases, but it is difficult to cure tired diseases, Miss Feng's condition is very difficult to cure at the root, and you have to recuperate slowly. ”
Xu Liang's heart is cold, and he has to go for three or five years? Don't you get a wind chill headache, as for saying it so strictly! Just about to ask, I heard the old doctor instruct again: "My lord, remember that during this period, Miss Feng can't blow a cool breeze, take in cool water, and can't get rainy, otherwise, if she catches the wind and cold again, it will definitely make it worse and endanger her life!" ”
Xu Liang didn't give up, and asked, "Isn't there a cure for the old man?" I'll pay a high honorarium, as much as I want! ”
The old doctor shook his head: "Master Xu, the doctor's parents' hearts, if the old man can cure it radically, how can there be no reason, but in fact, there is nothing he can do." ”
When Xu Liang heard this, he turned to the other six doctors, who all looked at him apologetically and shook their heads.
Xia Er led several doctors down to receive the reward, and Xu Liang returned to Feng Suqin's bed.
"I heard it all." Feng Suqin said softly.
Xu Liang endured his sadness and comforted: "Jianchang County must be a small county, and the medical skills of the doctors in the city are also limited. ”
Feng Suqin looked at him, her heart was only moved, but she shook her head lightly and said: "Big brother, my body knows by myself, I think what those doctors said is true, the family changed drastically back then, my father was imprisoned, and my mother took me all the way south, sleeping in the open air, not having enough to eat, not wearing warm, in those years, I was cold all over, shivering with cold, but there was no way to treat it, until now, I didn't think it would be so strict......
As she spoke, Feng Suqin's eyes were gloomy and her tears flowed, thinking that she recalled the incident at home.
Xu Liang sighed, silently hugged the beauty, leaned on his shoulder, and comforted him in a firm tone: "Suqin, don't worry, I Xu Liang swears that even if I go bankrupt, I will definitely heal you." ”
Feng Suqin listened, looked up at Xu Liang fixedly, and buried her head in Xu Liang's arms.
"I believe it." She said.
After a while, Feng Suqin's mother, Mrs. Feng, and cousin Feng Min'er came over. Xu Liang withdrew.
In the corridor, Yan Qi, the head catcher of Jianchang County, walked around there, looking anxious.
"Old Seven, why did you come here today?" Xu Liang walked over and asked.
"Ah, my lord, my subordinates came to you after ordering Mao, Miss Xia'er said that the adults were in the house to accompany Miss Feng, and the subordinates were waiting for you outside." Yan Qi is a person who came with Xing Zhongshan from Wan'an County, and can be regarded as Xu Liang's confidant in the third class of the government. When he came, there must have been something to report in the county office.
Xu Liang was in front and Yan Qi was behind, and the two walked along the winding corridor to the front yard.
"My lord, you didn't go to the county government today, don't you know, Wang Zhixian said some cruel things when he ordered it." Yan Qi reported while walking.
"Oh?" Xu Liang could actually guess it, but he still asked, "What did the county zun say?" How ruthless? ”
Yan Qi thought for a moment and said affirmatively: "I said more than usual, I must be very ruthless." Saying that, Yan Qi reported what happened in the county office. In fact, in Xu Liang's opinion, there is nothing unexpected, it is nothing more than Wang Zhixian knew that Lu Xiancheng secretly sued the black, and sent his own good county magistrate to Nanjing to drink herbal tea, and he was extremely unhappy, but he was suffering from no evidence, so he took a gun and a stick when the county government was ordered, pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, and paradoxically scolded someone for a while.
"My lord, you have to be careful in the future, it seems that Wang Xianzhi is very dissatisfied with you." After Yan Qi finished speaking, he carefully added such a sentence.
"Huh?" Xu Liang was stunned for a moment, and when he woke up to the meaning of Yan Zhutou, he couldn't help crying and laughing, Yan Zhutou probably recognized Wang Zhixian's abuse object as Xu Liang. Xu Liang smiled: "Don't worry, Wang Zhixian is not targeting me." However, thank you, there are many things today, another day you will ask the squad leader of the third class to come out, and then call Inspector Liu, and the official will invite you to drink. ”
"Huh." Yan Qixi smiled, and the two passed the arched courtyard gate in the backyard, and Yan Qi asked cautiously: "My lord, Miss Feng is fine, right?" ”
Xu Liang felt sour in his heart when he heard this, but on the surface, he still shook his head and chuckled: "It's not a big deal, it's just a cold." ”
"That's good." Yan Zhutou said, seeing a group of generals in bright clothes and armor coming in at the front gate of the front yard, the first two were Huang Ziren and Xing Zhongshan, knowing that the generals of the patrol battalion were coming, they didn't stay longer, nodded with the generals of the patrol battalion who came on, and strode out of Xufu.
Lao Yuan, the deputy envoy of patrol, Huang Ziren, a military general who tried a hundred households from the sixth grade, beckoned and shouted: "Big brother, I heard that my sister-in-law Feng is sick, and I thought about coming over to take a look, but a few of them came with a cheeky face!" ”
Hu Xiaoyong, the sentry officer behind him, smiled: "Hey, Lord Deputy Envoy, you didn't tell your brothers that just now, did you?" My lord, when you went out, you obviously said that Miss Feng was sick, so Miss Feng's cousin, the other Miss Feng, must also be in the Xu Mansion...... Ouch, what are you kicking me for? ”
Huang Ziren's face was slightly red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't talk too much, you'll die!" ”
Ha ha! The surrounding generals laughed. Xu Liang saw it, although he was worried about Feng Suqin in his heart, and when he saw his subordinates like this, he couldn't help but smile.
