Chapter 157: The Chen Family
At noon the next day, the group arrived in Hechun City, and there was already a steward of the Chen family outside the city gate who led the small servant to greet him, and waited for a long time.
"Dr. Min has worked hard all the way, the villain's surname is Chen, and he is the second steward of the outer courtyard of the house." The steward Chen Feng clasped his fists and saluted, and he was courteous for several weeks.
"Good wine and good food have been prepared at the house, please come to Dr. Min."
"Steward Chen is polite." Min Fang bowed his head.
"This is." Chen Feng looked at Xiao Ming and Li'er who came down from the carriage behind, his face was not obvious, but he was a little dissatisfied in his heart, looking at the age of Xiao Ming and the others, they should be the juniors of Dr. Min, can they laugh out of the outpatient clinic and bring their families?
"This is Doctor Xiao, the old man's sister." Min Fangqi introduced.
"It turned out to be Dr. Xiao, Chen Feng was sluggish, please Haihan." Chen Feng was surprised, he didn't expect that the little girl in front of him was also a doctor, and she was still the younger sister of Dr. Min, Chengfeng was immediately embarrassed, but fortunately, he was used to forbearance and did not show his previous inexpression.
"Official Chen is polite." Xiao Ming replied, a slight blessing, which can be regarded as a gift.
"A few people are tired all the way, please come with the little ones." Chen Feng said, leading everyone to Chen's house on Dongshi Street.
The Chen family as a family of Hechun, a hundred years of scholarly fragrance in the Hechun generation has been famous for a long time, since this generation of the old lady married the countryman, the fortune of the Chen family has reached its peak, Hechun is proud of the Chen family, there was a famous saying, 'In Hechun can not know the prefect, must not know Chen. You can see its brilliance.
The Chen family's mansion is located in the most prosperous East Market, and the whole street is the main courtyard mansion of the Chen family, with a wide area, rich and rich, and it is the first wealthy family in Hechun City.
Gorgeous vermilion gate, white jade steps on the fall of the English colorful, intoxicating, the colored glazed tiles reflect the brilliant brilliance, pavilions, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, strange flowers and plants, staggered to the cause, the door of the two squatting tall white stone lions squatting majestically, the style is very, everywhere shows the heritage of the century-old family.
Steward Chen took Min Fangqi and Xiao Ming around the main entrance and entered through the side door.
There was already a navy blue sedan chair parked in the door, several mothers-in-law waiting, and a small servant stepped forward quickly after Chen Feng got out of the carriage and whispered in his ear.
After hearing this, Chen Feng frowned, but he immediately recovered, and said politely to Min Fangqi and Xiao Ming: "Doctor Min, Doctor Xiao, please get off the carriage and take a sedan chair, the two of you are tired from running all the way, please go to the guest room to rest for a while, and meet the old lady in the evening." “
Listening to his intentions, Chen Feng did not immediately arrange for Min Fangqi and Xiao Ming to immediately diagnose and treat Mrs. Chen, but only said that he would not talk about diagnosis and treatment, which seemed to have another deep meaning.
Min Fangqi knew what he meant, Chen Feng did this, and wanted to see what had happened.
Xiao Ming sat in a navy blue sedan chair and was carried by two powerful mothers-in-law, winding all the way, about half an hour Min Fangqi's sedan chair and Xiao Ming separated and went to the men's courtyard, and Xiao Ming went to the guest room in the back house.
"Girl, take some tea breaks." In the guest room, Li'er poured tea for Xiao Ming, and skillfully assisted Xiao Ming's bed.
"Girl, I'll get some hot water." Li'er said that these were all taught to her countless times by Song and Yi's mother before going out, so that she must serve the girl well.
The generation of the Chen family is very courteous to the guests who come from afar, and its etiquette rules can be seen between the lines and movements, the dinner samples are rich, the delicacies are delicacies, and the greedy pears eat the seafood she has coveted for a long time.
The Chen family treated the guests well, but Xiao Ming and Min Fangqi sat on a veritable cold bench once, and the two did not see the old lady of the Chen Mansion that night.
"The first Imperial Doctor Chen of the Tai Hospital already knew that the old lady was sick, and he was very worried and came from the capital to treat the old lady in person, and the old lady had already fallen asleep after taking the medicine, and the effect was very good." That night, Chen Feng explained to Min Fangqi like this.
"Dr. Min and Dr. Xiao came from Ping'an Town, Pingcheng thousands of miles to treat the old lady, the old lady was very grateful, and specially ordered the small one to come and personally thank Dr. Min and Dr. Xiao, please Dr. Min to rest, and tomorrow the little one will personally send the ceremony."
"Please forgive me." Chen Feng is sleek, as the second steward of the outer courtyard of the Chen Mansion, his status is second only to the chief steward, it can be seen that his ability, his knowledge has several meanings, one is to tell the old lady Min Fangqi that there is Dr. Chen Tai to diagnose and treat, no longer need to bother him, the other means is that he doesn't want Min Fangqi and Xiao Mingbai to run, let them rest in the Chen Mansion tonight, and return the same way the next morning, and their running silver is indispensable.
Although the words are polite, they are also indispensable to give rewards, and they are even more suspicious of looking down on and not paying attention to folk doctors.
Thinking about the great business of the Chen family, it is normal not to see that Min Fangqi and Xiao Ming from the people are really normal, if you know that Min Fangqi was once the first in the Tai Hospital, I am afraid it will not be this kind of polite and contemptuous attitude.
"Sir." The little guy Sanzhu was not angry, and he didn't speak until Chen Feng left, and he heard Chen Feng's attitude just now as a subordinate.
"Well, calm down." Min Fangqi did not affect his mood because of Chen Feng's attitude, but persuaded Sanzhu.
"It's hard to get confused in life." Min Fangqi is saying, he has been practicing medicine for decades, the royal nobles, the princes and grandsons have seen, and they have also diagnosed and treated his pulse, among them, there are people with good attitudes who treat him politely, or look at him more, and there are also after his temper is outraged, what he has experienced and encountered is extraordinary, and it has long been nonsense, Chen Feng's attitude is harmless to him.
Life is rare to be confused, not more serious, not paranoid, let go, let people take a step back and be more happy.
"Sir." Sanzhu looked at his master's appearance impatiently, since he returned to Ping'an Town, he found that his master's temperament had gradually changed, more peaceful than before, and he was not angry.
If it weren't for the three urges of the old man, their master would not have come all the way here.
On Xiao Ming's side, Chen Feng has no right to enter the woman's inner house, and it is a housekeeper mother with a head and a face who speaks to Xiao Ming, but her meaning is more obvious than Chen Fenglai.
"The Chen family in the capital is in the same vein as our Hechun Chen family, which was separated from the old lady's father's generation, so the relationship between the Chen family and the Chen family is to break the bones and connect the tendons, and the Chen family is the first hospital with excellent medical skills, and a noble person like him personally came to diagnose and treat the old lady, and the old lady will definitely take medicine to get rid of the disease and eventually recover, so the girl should go back." The housekeeper's mother said.
"It's late today, so the girl will rest for the night and set off again tomorrow." The housekeeper's mother said, looking at the little girl in front of her, she didn't believe that she had any medical skills, and the eldest master invited a little girl.
"Please rest in the room at night, don't walk around, the Chen Mansion is there, there are many yards, if you get lost or go to a place where you shouldn't go, it's not good, there are many people patrolling the house at night." The housekeeper's mother seemed to be reminding her with good intentions, but more of a warning, warning Xiao Ming not to run around, in case she was met by someone from the patrol team and treated as a thief.
Xiao Ming didn't say much, but what she thought of in her heart was the Chen family's capital lineage, she had a very good relationship with her senior brother Min Fangqi, and after getting acquainted, she also knew a lot of things when he was young.
The last time I saw Mr. Chen, a military doctor of the Northwest Army, was the same senior brother of Senior Brother Min, the two had the best relationship and wanted to support each other, and this Imperial Doctor Chen who came from afar was also the same senior brother of the senior brother, the three of them studied together and entered the Tai Hospital together, but for some reason it was Senior Brother Min who sat on the first seat of the Tai Hospital, and then the emperor died of illness, and the senior brother Chen Lao went to the Northwest Army, and Senior Brother Min resigned from the capital of the Tai Hospital, resigned and went into hiding.
Guangjitang sincerely said that he had developed a new drug given by Xiao Ming, and Min Fangqi had written a letter to the Tai Hospital, the Imperial Doctor Chen, but there was no news, and the stone sank into the sea.
Xiao Ming guessed that Senior Brother Min and the current Tai Hospital were the first to have a suspicion.
"Is it late?" Xiao Ming looked up at the sky, dinner was early, now it was not dark, it was equivalent to more than six o'clock in the afternoon in the previous life, it was already dark late in summer, and now it was in a hurry to go out to find an inn to stay.
"Since Mrs. Chen's recovery is hopeful, my senior brother and I won't bother, let's leave now." Xiao Ming said, stood up, and told Li'er to pack up her things, not wanting to admit that she was underestimated by the Chen family, and she didn't want Senior Brother Min and Imperial Doctor Chen to face each other and be ridiculed by the other party.
"Girl." The housekeeper Wu's mother was surprised, she didn't expect this girl to react like this, and her temper was not very good.
"It's getting dark now, and it's not convenient to go out, so it's better to stay in the house for one night and leave tomorrow." Seeing that Xiao Ming was leaving, Mother Wu lost her arrogance just now.
"No defense, it's still early, the Chen family has a big business, we don't dare to live in such a magnificent place in the countryside." Xiao Ming said, ignoring Wu's mother's dissuasion, and asked Li'er to pack up her things, but fortunately, the two of them didn't have many things, and they packed up after a while.
Mother Wu looked at Xiao Ming's heart, and hurriedly glanced at the little girl standing at the door, and personally accompanied Xiao Ming and the two to the corner gate, and persuaded Xiao Ming along the way, hoping that Xiao Ming would stay, in her heart, Xiao Ming and his party were defenseless whether they left or stayed, but this matter spread and hindered the reputation of the Chen Mansion.
Xiao Ming stood at the corner gate, waiting for Min Fangqi and Yi Feng to come over, deaf to Mother Wu's words, since they don't need to be treated, it's better to leave early, there is no need to stay in this Chen Mansion.
"Yo, where did the little lady come from, she is really handsome." A flirtatious voice rang out, ushering in a gust of fragrant wind.
There were two little boys who came in from the corner door, and a little boy with a folding fan walked in front of him, the little boy was only fourteen or fifteen years old, with gorgeous clothes, delicate eyebrows and eyes, grease and powder, eyebrows and lips looked so exquisite, at first glance, I thought it was a little girl who came out of a family, but Xiao Ming was sure that he was a boy after a closer look.
Xiao Ming was speechless, are boys in this era popular to paint makeup, look at his makeup is more delicate than a woman, and his face is whiter than a woman.
The little boy looked at Xiao Ming's eyes lit up, and his legs walked over uncontrollably.
"Eighth Young Master." Mother Wu saluted.
"This little face is white and tender, let the little master touch it." The little boy didn't pay attention to Mother Wu, looked straight at Xiao Ming, his hands suddenly stretched out, wanting to touch Xiao Ming's face, the hara in his mouth was about to flow out, he just entered the door and saw such a beautiful little girl really liked it.
However, in the next second, he was thrown a few steps away, his butt hit the ground, and his feet were facing the sky.
"Ouch." The little boy only felt that the world was spinning, his buttocks hurt raw, and he understood what was happening.
"Young Master." The entourage hurriedly helped his young master up, but Wu's mother was stunned, and before she could react, she stood stunned.
"Who threw Lao Tzu, don't you want to live?" The makeup on the little boy Chen Yuanze's face was spent, and he spit out something from his mouth I don't know what it was, he was extremely angry, he was the young master of the Chen family, extremely noble, but he was treated like this, it was really unreasonable.
Xiao Ming stroked her forehead, what she saw just now, the silly girl jumped out, and in seconds she turned into a strong man and threw people out like a thing.
"Hmph, you are a prodigal son, you dare to despise my girl, I can't kill you." Li'er crossed her hands on her hips, completely unconscious of causing a big disaster, her eyes widened, staring at the little boy in front of her, and her momentum was fiercer than him.
At home, Yi's mother confessed that she must not let any man get close to the girl's body, not a male mosquito will do, and if she dares to get close, she will fight, obviously Li'er took Yi's mother's words as a holy decree and carried it out to the end.
At this time, she didn't know that she had caused a big disaster, and she had fallen the young master of the Chen family in the Chen family, which was okay.
Mother Wu's legs trembled, and she looked at the little ancestor in front of her in her heart, I was terrible, what should I do this time, I was really unlucky, I didn't expect to meet this little ancestor, this little ancestor is the official character of the big man's family, he has loved beauty since he was a child, and he has to pinch two handfuls when he meets a beautiful girl, his mouth is sweet and obedient, and he can please people, and often complains about how his mother doesn't make him a sister, otherwise he will grow as beautiful as the old ancestor.
Just such a sentence pleases the old ancestor, the old ancestor likes him very much, and rewards him with some good things from time to time, which simply spoils him to the sky, causing this little ancestor to be more and more weird the bigger, grease and powder, and really think of himself as a girl.
Mother Wu's heart turned a thousand times, for fear that the above would blame her, she would also have to eat Guiluo, so she quietly withdrew.
On the tree-lined path, the two flowers and trees are flourishing, the flowers are blooming, the flowers are splendid, and the beauty is magnificent, but the two young boys and girls walking in it do not have the mind to enjoy the beautiful scenery, the young man is only eighteen, and the girl is slightly younger than fifteen or sixteen years old.
"Big brother." The girl Chen Ningke looked at her eldest brother and frowned.
"This Mrs. Chen is very skilled, and if you think about it, she will be able to cure her grandmother's evil disease." Having said that, there is still a lot of worry between the words.
"Little sister don't worry, grandmother will recover." Chen Yuanqin said with relief.
