Then Su Jinyao said to Lin Xiuxiu again: "Don't worry, I will take good care of him and teach him seriously." Whether he is talented or not, at least medicine is something that can attract him now, and you let him study hard, which is also good for him. ”

Lin Xiuxiu was still very surprised, and the stunned watch (qíng) was stalemate for a long time before slowly nodding and saying, "Since this is the case, then let him learn." ”

Su Jinyao said to Lin Xiuqing again: "Then, from now on, you will be my first official disciple." In the future, you have to follow me closely, no matter what I ask you to learn, no matter how difficult it is, you have to do your best, you know? ”

Lin Xiuqing listened and didn't move for a long time, but finally nodded.

He should have understood, but his reaction was relatively slow, and everything was half a beat slower.

Su Jinyao pressed (qíng) Xu and continued: "Maybe now, some things are too difficult for you. But you have to restrain yourself from your heart and do your best, is that okay? ”

This time, without waiting for Lin Xiuqing to nod slowly, Su Jinyao immediately said: "First of all, you have to learn to concentrate and respond to every word I say to you as soon as possible." Let me ask you again, Lin Xiuqing, can you do it? ”

"Yes." Lin Xiuqing did answer a little faster this time.

Su Jinyao nodded and patted Lin Xiuqing's shoulder with satisfaction. Then he turned to Xiuxiu and said, "I will turn him into a normal child first, and then teach him well." That's a good thing for him. ”

"Yes, I see." Lin Xiuxiu also saw the change in her younger brother.

Although it is just a matter of answering one sentence (qíng), this is already a rare breakthrough for Lin Xiuxiu.

You must know that Lin Xiuqing's state has always been good and bad. Even if her sister tried her best to teach him for a long time, he sometimes wouldn't respond seriously.

Perhaps, being able to follow Su Jinyao is really a good thing for Xiuqing, and he will get better slowly.

With hope, Lin Xiuxiu's face was filled with a happy smile.

Su Jinyao hadn't seen her for many days, but Su Jinyao also knew that after this little girl faced the pain of losing her father, this should be a rare laugh for her.

Su Jinyao said, "Okay, now listen to me and go pack up your things." Come with me, you have to adapt to the new environment as soon as possible, and then you have to study hard with my husband. ”

Lin Xiuxiu immediately agreed, and her voice was full of joy.

Lin Xiuqing raised her head to look at Su Jinyao, moved her lips hard, and then said, "My book? ”

"Follow me, are you still afraid that there will be no medical books to read?" Su Jinyao smiled, touched Lin Xiuqing's head, and said, "Actually, many books are in my head, and I can tell you little by little." It's much better than the rote memorization of miscellaneous medical books you've read. ”

Lin Xiuqing may have believed in Su Jinyao, so she nodded very seriously. Then he said, "Come with you." ”

"Yes, that's right. That's the answer, no matter how hard you find it to speak, answer me as quickly as possible. Say what comes to mind, even the simplest word or a word. So that I can understand what you mean and know what you want. ”

After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she motioned to Xiuqing to go and pack her things as well. Then he asked Xiuning and Dongzi: "What about you, do you want to follow me, or stay here?" ”

"Of course I want to follow my master." Xiuning said immediately. But he immediately looked at Mingjuan, and said with some embarrassment: "It's just that I'm afraid that I can't learn well and can't help my master." ”

Before Su Jinyao could speak, Mingjuan walked over, gently took Xiuning's hand, and said, "As long as we are loyal as maids and think about everything for the good of our master, it will be enough." I can tell you the other rules slowly, if you don't know or don't understand, you can also ask me. ”

Xiuning nodded gratefully, and looked at Su Jinyao again.

Su Jinyao smiled and said, "Don't look at me, I will take you from Anji City to the villa, and I will bring you all the way from the villa to the capital." If I hadn't treated you as a cronie, I would have left you behind along the way. ”

Listening to Su Jinyao's words, Xiuning also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

But she immediately said nervously: "But, master, when you didn't say goodbye, you didn't think about taking me with you at all." ”

Su Jinyao was stunned for a moment, then walked over and slapped her on the back, saying, "At that time, even the prince (diàn) couldn't find me, and you still want to follow me?" ”

When Xiuning heard it, this is indeed the truth. Su Jinyao was so resolute at the beginning, and she made the prince (diàn) anxious like an ant on a pot. It seems that the master is angry and will not buy anyone's account.

Dongzi naturally wants to go along. In fact, most of his thoughts were laid on Xiuning's (shēn).

It's just that Su Jinyao can see that Xiuning's mind is not on Dongzi (shēn).

Although the two of them seem to have a good relationship now, it looks like a family (qíng), like a brother and sister.

But true love (qíng) is unlikely to be. Su Jinyao felt a little sorry for Dongzi, but there was no way to do it (qíng).

They went to pack up their things and were about to leave with Su Jinyao, so Su Jinyao went back to the front hall to find Gu Xuebin.

A meal had already been prepared on the table, Gu Xuebin did not eat, but was waiting for Su Jinyao.

Su Jinyao sat down, and while the two were eating, they talked about their arrangements for Lin Xiuxiu. Su Jinyao decided to arrange them all in Yafu.

I like to be pampered by you

Yafu was given to Su Jinyao by Gu Xuebin, and of course he would not interfere with how to arrange it and who to let live.

Gu Xuebin was more curious about Su Jinyao's acceptance of Lin Xiuqing as an apprentice (qíng). He asked, "Do you think that kid can really do it?" ”

Su Jinyao smiled and said, "It's not that I think it's okay. Don't you think he can do it, too? If you weren't optimistic about him, how could you have agreed to let him go to the library to read books in the first place? ”

Gu Xuebin smiled when he heard this, and said, "What if I say, this is (ài) house and Wu?" I just thought that since you brought back the people, they can have some waiting. ”

Su Jinyao glanced at him when she heard this, and said, "It's so unprincipled." In fact, you should say that you have a unique eye, and you have long seen that Xiuqing is a good material. ”

"Nope." Gu Xuebin shook his head bluntly and said, "I only have a pair of discerning eyes, and I took a fancy to you at a glance many years ago. And then it wasn't so bright. The rest of the people couldn't get into my eyes. ”

Indeed, (shēn) is under the prince (diàn), and (rì) is busy with official business. If it weren't for Su Jinyao's relationship, these ordinary people would not be able to live in the prince's courtyard and be taken care of by the prince, even if they looked at it from a distance, it would be considered a blessing.

Su Jinyao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, feeling that Gu Xuebin was really generous to him for no reason.

Thinking of this, Su Jinyao suddenly said: "Ah, I almost forgot, I went to the Prince's Mansion to find you, and I had a serious matter." ”

"Really? What's up? Don't delay. Gu Xuebin put down the chopsticks in his hand and became a little nervous.

Su Jinyao hurriedly sandwiched a piece (ròu) for him and put it in a bowl, and said, "It's not a big deal, don't be so nervous." After eating, I'll bring it to you. ”

"Take what? Now call someone to get it. "Gu Xuebin is still very concerned about Su Jinyao's affairs (qíng).

The meal can be eaten for a while, but Su Jinyao's matter (qíng) must be done first.

When Su Jinyao saw him like this, she said, "Okay, I'll tell Mingjuan to get it." Still in my carriage. ”

Mingjuan understood, and also knew that Su Jinyao had gone to find Gu Xuebin for something, so she agreed and went to the carriage to get something.

After a while, Mingjuan came back and placed the embroidered samples and the catalogue of dress styles on the table.

Gu Xuebin looked at the colorful pile, the corners of his mouth twitched, and said, "Jin Yao, you embroidered this?" ”

"It's not." Su Jinyao hurriedly denied it and said, "I don't know these skills." Isn't this the picture album you told the officials of the Ministry of Rites to choose the style of the wedding dress for me? ”

Gu Xuebin let out an "oh", nodded, and said, "I heard that the Ministry of Rites is going to make a wedding dress for the crown princess, so I ordered them to do everything according to your requirements." But what exactly is the style, I don't pay attention. ”

Su Jinyao's face turned red when she heard this, and she said, "I know you're busy, but ...... I still want you to help me choose a wedding dress (tào). ”

Speaking of this, Su Jinyao put down the chopsticks in her hand, pulled Gu Xuebin's sleeve, and said, "I want to wear a (tào) similar style to your favorite clothes." The two of us wore exactly the same best. ”

Su Jinyao's appearance of sa (jiāo) like this is rare, and Gu Xuebin was also stunned, and then smiled.

He took Su Jinyao's hand off his sleeve, wrapped it in his palm, and said softly: "You just came to the Prince's Mansion to find me for this?" ”

"Hmm." Su Jinyao bluntly admitted it.

"Okay, I'll take a look, I'll choose now." Gu Xuebin nodded very seriously. He knew that this was an important thing that only two people would do once in their lives (qíng), and it was no wonder that Su Jinyao was suddenly so nervous.

And, as long as she thinks about it, he will do what she wants, whatever it is.

Seeing Gu Xuebin so serious, Su Jinyao's heart also relaxed.

She was afraid that Gu Xuebin would think she was too capable, and she had to come over for such a trivial matter.

Now it seems that Gu Xuebin also understands how seriously she takes this wedding, and she doesn't feel that she is unreasonable.

Both of them put down their chopsticks and gathered together to look at the atlases and embroidery patterns. Su Jinyao also explained to Gu Xuebin what she heard from Mrs. Gu and Gu Xueqi yesterday.

After talking for a while, Gu Xuebin raised his head and looked at Su Jinyao with deep eyes (qíng), and those eyes were full of doting.

Su Jinyao was a little embarrassed by him, stretched out her hand to smooth the hair in her ear, and asked, "What's wrong?" Why are you looking at me like that? ”

Gu Xuebin took a breath and said, "Jin Yao, seeing that you have done your homework to choose a wedding dress, I feel that I have snubbed you." This should have been chosen by the two of us together, and now you have to bother alone, blaming me for not thinking about it thoroughly. ”

"Anyway, it's not your responsibility." Su Jinyao pinched Gu Xuebin's palm and said with a smile: "Actually, I don't understand, they all told me about it yesterday by Xueqi." I'm learning and selling now. How's that, do you have a favorite? ”

"Well, this (tào) I (tǐng) like." After Gu Xuebin finished speaking, he looked at Su Jinyao again and said, "The main thing is that Jinyao will definitely look good when she wears it." ”

"And what about your favorite clothes? What is it like? Of course, Su Jinyao is more concerned about the clothes Gu Xuebin wears and whether she can match (qíng) clothes?

Although the styles of dresses for marriage are similar, there is not much to find fault with men's clothing. But Su Jinyao always thinks about whether she can cooperate as much as possible in the details, so that it can be regarded as a real pair?

It's also strange to say, Su Jinyao never had such a little woman's mentality before, but now she is living more and more, and she is spoiled by Gu Xuebin like a child who can't grow up.

When Gu Xuebin heard Su Jinyao ask, he smiled "hehe". Then he took Su Jinyao's hand and said, "Actually, don't worry about this, on the day of the wedding, there are more people who see the bride, and I, the prince, are not so important." ”

Seeing that Su Jinyao was about to be anxious, Gu Xuebin hurriedly said: "Actually, my wedding dress is based on your dress style. When the Ministry of Rites sent me to choose before, I already explained that you have chosen the one (tào), and I will do it according to the style. ”

"I see!" Only then did Su Jinyao understand that Gu Xuebin had not been selected at all, but everything was according to his own intentions and he was fully cooperating with his preferences.

"Silly girl, aren't you very moved?" Gu Xuebin hugged Su Jinyao's shoulders, put her head to her, and said with a smile: "I just want to move the silly girl, and then promise it with (shēn)." ”

"You've spoiled me." Su Jinyao turned her head and kissed Gu Xuebin's face gently, and then said playfully: "However, I like to be spoiled like this." If you dare to treat me badly, I'll do it. ”

The two laughed and laughed, and the style of the dress was also settled. Each thought about the appearance of each other in their wedding clothes, and they were all full of sweetness.

A booklet

When she left the prince's courtyard, it was already evening, and Su Jinyao didn't let Gu Xuebin send her, but got into the simple carriage of Yafu with Xiuning and them.

Gu Xuebin thought about it and said, "Give me the pattern of the dress." I'll go into the palace to arrange it now, and tomorrow the tailor will go directly to the ancient mansion to measure your size. ”

Su Jinyao nodded, and asked Mingjuan to hand over the things to Gu Xuebin.

The carriage started, and when it entered the city, the two carriages separated. The prince's carriage went to the Ministry of Rites, while Su Jinyao's carriage returned to Yafu.

The housekeeper of Yafu had already regarded Su Jinyao as his master, and he knew that as soon as the carriage came back, he would naturally welcome him out. Su Jinyao introduced Xiuning and the others to the housekeeper one by one.

This housekeeper is also very eye-catching, and at a glance, he knows that these people should be Su Jinyao's cronies, so naturally he didn't get off the horse to seize the momentum, but seemed very polite.

Su Jinyao said: "Xiuning, Dongzi, you are here to stay with the Lin sisters and brothers for a few days, so that they can adapt to the environment here." I'll pick you up in a few days. ”

Xiuning and Dongzi naturally have no opinions, not to mention that they get along very well with the Lin brothers and sisters these days, and they will be a little reluctant if they suddenly separate.

Su Jinyao told Lin Xiuxiu again, saying that she would let her arrange her own time tomorrow, or take Xiuqing to walk around the capital. The day after tomorrow, Mr. Pan will officially come to teach homework, and Su Jinyao will come over in the morning to see how it is going.

Lin Xiuxiu agreed, but Lin Xiuqing's clear eyes kept on Su Jinyao's (shēn), as if she had something to say, but she couldn't say it.

Su Jinyao walked over, squatted in front of Lin Xiuqing, and said with a smile: "You have a good rest first, and have a good day with your sister." The day after tomorrow, I will bring you a good medical book, and then I will start teaching you some medical skills one after another. You'll be very busy, and you won't have time to play. So, now is the time to make the most of the fun. ”

Lin Xiuqing seemed to understand, but she didn't. But he pondered for a moment, and nodded.

Su Jinyao patted him on the shoulder and said, "Remember to call me Master in the future, and practice talking more." ”

Lin Xiuqing nodded seriously again. Then he replied, "Yes." ”

It's only one word, but it's a good result. At least Lin Xiuqing now trusts Su Jinyao and will answer her questions.

After all the arrangements were made, Su Jinyao took Mingjuan away. However, Su Jinyao did not go back to Gu's house directly, but asked Mingjuan to take her to the bookstore in the city to have a look.

Mingjuan knew that Su Jinyao had the intention to buy books for Lin Xiuqing, so she said, "I know, there are two big bookstores in the capital. One is opened by the Feng family, called Shenghongfang. The other is the government-run Academy of Chinese Studies, and all students in the capital will go to this academy to buy books. ”

Su Jinyao smiled when she heard the name "Shenghongfang" and said, "The ancient family's bookstore in Nanpingzhou is called Feihongfang. This Feng family actually opened a Shenghongfang in the capital, is this clearly calling for the board? ”

Mingjuan shook her head and said, "I really don't know about this." However, the books sold in the Feng family's bookstore are very prosperous, otherwise they would not dare to be called the two major bookstores in the capital with the government-run school. ”

Su Jinyao shook her head when she heard this, and said, "Forget it, these two bookstores may not have the books I am looking for, maybe I can go to the pharmacy and the medical hall to have a look." ”

Mingjuan told everything she knew, the famous medical halls and pharmacies in the capital.

In fact, because of the strict control in Beijing, it has not been very prosperous (rè) noisy, the permanent population is almost fixed, and the floating population is not much. Therefore, there are not many pharmacies and medical centers, and there are only two or three famous ones.

Su Jinyao and Mingjuan went to a nearby medical hall, the façade is not small, and the doctor sitting in the hall is not young, and it seems that he is very respectable.

It's just that Su Jinyao took a turn in this medical hall, raised her nose and sniffed, and then pulled Mingjuan and left directly.

After coming out, Mingjuan asked curiously, "Miss, don't you ask if there are any medical books sold in this medical hall?" ”
