Chapter 144: Someone Comes
There are a total of 10 cold dishes, hot dishes, meat dishes, and vegetarian dishes on the table, which is more generous than the people in the village who marry their daughters-in-law and daughters on weekdays, which makes the people at the table give a thumbs up to this double happiness workshop.
The table was eaten until noon before it was about to end, first Li Zheng and the village chief took the lead in saying goodbye, and then the shopkeeper Yin took the people to leave and returned to the town.
In front of the Double Happiness Workshop, the guests were sent out lively, and they were busy until dark, and the guests of the Double Happiness Workshop were all delivered.
"Happy, happy, there is a person in front of the door who is looking for Aunt Wang."
Tong Shuangxi had just sat down to catch his breath, and Qiu came over panting.
Tong Shuangxi casually handed a cup of herbal tea to Qiusheng, then stood up and walked towards the door of the workshop.
In front of the door, Qin Ergouzi and several uncles of the Yuan family were busy cleaning up the remnants of firecrackers left by the daytime, and a dusty figure stood in front of the workshop.
"Doctor Xu!"
Although the person in front of him was a little taller than before, Tong Shuangxi recognized the cold face at a glance.
Doctor Xu also saw Tong Shuangxi who was stepping out of the threshold at a glance, with a matte pink peach blossom gown, a light gray gown, two buns tied on his head, and the rest of his hair was gently draped behind him.
I haven't seen her for nearly a year, and the girl has already taken off her list.
"Doctor Xu, when did you come back! My wife went to your yard a few days ago to take a look, and I thought about inviting you over to eat at the table, but I didn't expect it...... I didn't expect to see you today......! ”
As soon as Tong Shuangxi walked up to Dr. Xu, Mrs. Wang rushed over and grabbed Dr. Xu's sleeve, wiping her tears excitedly while she was talking.
The people in front of the door all watched in wonder as Mrs. Wang took a young man's hand and wiped her tears. Dr. Xu let Mrs. Wang hold her hand, but there was no trace of embarrassment.
"I went out to travel, and I happened to pass by here, and I heard that a girl named Tong Shuangxi in Liuli Village opened a workshop, so I thought I would come and have a look."
Doctor Xu explained softly to Mrs. Wang and the others.
"You look like you're in a hurry, you shouldn't have eaten yet, come in, I'll go to the kitchen to cook for you!" Mrs. Wang looked at Dr. Xu's face full of wind and dust, and couldn't help but feel distressed.
"Auntie, you accompany Dr. Xu, I'll cook a few dishes for Dr. Xu." Tong Shuangxi saw Mrs. Wang's excited appearance, so he took the initiative to say authentically.
Mrs. Wang hadn't seen Dr. Xu for a long time, and she did have a lot to say to him in her heart, so she nodded in response to Tong Shuangxi's words.
In the kitchen, Steward Cai took half of the people back to the Houshan house, and left half of the people to help the Double Happiness Workshop prepare dinner.
Tong Shuangxi saw that the rice had been steamed in the kitchen pot, so he picked up a few snacks from the kitchen storage room, and then fished out a crucian carp from the kitchen tank to clean it.
Dr. Xu is a southerner, and he has traveled abroad for so long, and what he misses most is the food in their hometown.
Stir-fried mushrooms and leeks, shredded lettuce, tender bamboo shoots and roasted pork slices, braised crucian carp, and finally an egg soup with wild vegetables from the back mountain.
When the four dishes and one soup were placed on the table, Dr. Xu was obviously stunned.
"Eat it! Look I haven't seen it this year, I've lost a lot of weight! Mrs. Wang stuffed the chopsticks into Dr. Xu's hand and urged distressedly.
Dr. Xu has indeed not been able to taste the taste of his hometown for a long time, with rice, four dishes and one soup in the end, only some soup base remains.
Mrs. Wang looked even more distressed, how hungry she had to be, to make such a fairy-like boy as Dr. Xu eat so much.
"Today your workshop opens, I have brought you some herb fodder, right at the foot of the mountain." After eating and chatting, Dr. Xu drank a sip of tea, rinsed his mouth, and then said to Tong Shuangxi.
Mrs. Wang was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and Tong Shuangxi said: "Just when you are full, I will go down the mountain with Dr. Xu to get it." ”
Mrs. Wang also felt that Tong Shuangxi's words were reasonable, so she nodded and urged Tong Shuangxi to take Dr. Xu to eliminate food quickly.
"Auntie, she hasn't been so excited for a long time, and she respects Dr. Xu as a benefactor." On the way down the mountain, Tong Shuangxi smiled and said to Dr. Xu.
Dr. Xu nodded, and then said, "Fortunately, she still has you, even if I have a home, I also have an explanation for myself." ”
Tong Shuangxi was stunned, he didn't expect this Doctor Xu to think like this in his heart.
"Aunt Wang's husband was the first patient I treated, although his illness Hua Tuo was alive at that time, it didn't help, but after all, I treated him, and I have a responsibility for him."
Therefore, after Mrs. Wang's husband went, Dr. Xu took more care of Mrs. Wang's mother and son.
Practicing medicine to save people, if you really have a bodhisattva heart, Tong Shuangxi still felt that this doctor Xu was cold and not easy to get close to, but after listening to his words at this time, he inevitably had a different opinion of him.
"These spices were all found when I was collecting medicine in Shudi, and I thought that I could use them for cooking on weekdays, so I brought them back together." Tong Shuangxi's smiling eyes made Dr. Xu a little uncomfortable, and he took the initiative to explain to Tong Shuangxi the origin of those spices under the mountain.
Shudi ...... Tong Shuangxi didn't expect Dr. Xu to travel so far.
"The climate of Shu is humid all year round, suitable for the growth of all kinds of plants, it is a good source of medicinal materials, but the mountains there are steep, if Dr. Xu goes there, he must be heartfelt."
Tong Shuangxi cares about authenticity.
Doctor Xu was stunned, and looked at Tong Shuangxi with a surprised face: "How do you know that Shu is wet, and the mountains there are steep?" ”
Even he only knew the strangeness of Shu when he went this time, but he didn't expect that the girl in front of him, who was a few years older than himself, actually knew this.
Tong Shuangxi realized that he had exposed his "bottom", and hurriedly stretched out his arms and kicked his legs.
"I read it by chance from miscellaneous books, and it just so happened that Dr. Xu got up in Shudi, so I just said this." Tong Shuangxi quickly thought about it and explained.
Dr. Xu was still surprised and asked, "Do you know how to read?" ”
can see these on miscellaneous books, then Tong Shuangxi should have read a lot of books.
"Know!" Tong Shuangxi stuck out his tongue embarrassedly.
Doctor Xu didn't expect that Tong Shuangxi in front of him was really literate, according to her words, she should have read books often, and Doctor Xu had some other opinions about the girl in front of him.
It gradually got dark, and he couldn't see the road under his feet clearly, Tong Shuangxi took out the fire fold prepared on his body, and prepared to light the fire for Dr. Xu.
"Hey!"
It's just that before the fire fold was played, Liu Shu's voice came from behind him, and then Liu Shu and the servant behind him came over with a lamp.
Tong Shuangxi was worried that the fire fold would not work, so Liu Shu came over with the lamp.
