Chapter 19: I Really Didn't Do It
Lin Yu'an noticed that the two officials looked at each other as if they were uncertain.
But there was nothing unusual about the white-bearded old man.
Lin Ruochen was stunned for a moment, and then walked down the steps given by Xu Shizi, and said with a smile: "I just made a new dish, but I may have to trouble Shizi to wait a while, Imperial Doctor Zhou and this official still have something to talk to Xiao Sheng." ”
"Hurry up, I'm so hungry!"
The little boy on the side pouted loudly, and then glared at the two officials fiercely.
Xu Shizi touched the little boy's head, and although he didn't continue to speak, his eyes were not very friendly when he looked at the officials.
The two officials immediately sweated profusely, and the sweat kept dripping down their foreheads, but they didn't dare to wipe it, and one of them had a flattering smile on his face, "His Royal Highness the Prince of Qiqi, the humble post was sent by Lord Chen of the Household Department, and I heard that this young lady from Linjiazhuang has just returned from Hushen County, so I came here to ask about the epidemic." ”
There was a sneer on the corner of Xu Shizi's mouth.
"Oh, ask a seven-year-old girl? And when did the household department also start to manage the epidemic affairs? Isn't this all in the hands of the hospital? ”
Lin Yu'an saw Imperial Doctor Zhou take a step back quietly, standing next to Steward He and staring down at the floor, as if he didn't know what they were talking about.
This old man... Ahem, the old gentleman is quite interesting.
The sweat on the forehead of the official is getting more and more.
At this time, the little boy gently tugged at Xu Shizi's sleeve and said pitifully: "Brother, I'm hungry!" ”
Xu Shizi's tone was even worse, "If you have anything to say, hurry up and ask!" ”
"Yes, yes!"
Seeing this, Lin Yu'an said a few words in Qing He's ear, and Qing He turned around and left.
The official quickly asked a few questions about the epidemic, such as what was the start of the time, what measures the local officials had done, and so on.
Lin Yu'an stammered in response to them, her voice was very small, if she didn't listen carefully, she wouldn't know what she said, Lin Ruochen held her sister's hand with a distressed face, and helped to relay it loudly from time to time.
After the two officials got an answer, they clasped their fists and saluted to Xu Shizi, "Your Royal Highness, the humble post has been asked, and now you need to go back and report to the upper officials." ”
Xu Shizi waved them away and did not speak again.
After the two left, Imperial Doctor Zhou walked out again, and Mu Chen asked, "Imperial Doctor Zhou, what are you doing here?" ”
Imperial Doctor Zhou touched his beard and smiled kindly at Lin Yu'an, "Miss Lin, don't be afraid, I'm just here to inquire with you." ”
When he heard everyone call him Imperial Doctor Zhou just now, Lin Yu'an was thinking in his heart that it was Zhou of Divine Doctor Zhou?
Sure enough, Imperial Doctor Zhou said, "I heard about the epidemic. There is a doctor Zhou in the district, right? ”
Lin Yu'an nodded, "Hmm." ”
"What does he look like?" Imperial Doctor Zhou stepped forward anxiously and wanted to pull Lin Yu'an's hand, but was stopped by Ah Heng. "Uh...... Sorry, I was abrupt. ”
Imperial Doctor Zhou retreated with a red face.
Lin Ruochen hurriedly said, "Ah Heng, move a chair for Imperial Doctor Zhou." ”
As long as he sits well, he won't run over and scare his sister at will.
"Yes!"
After Imperial Doctor Zhou sat down, Mu Chen asked curiously, "Are you looking for that Divine Doctor Zhou?" Why? ”
"It's true." Imperial Doctor Zhou smiled bitterly, "Xiaguan suspects that Divine Doctor Zhou is my clan brother who has been away from home for many years. ”
This made everyone stunned.
Lin Yu'an looked at Imperial Doctor Zhou carefully, and frowned slightly in confusion, "But you two don't look alike." ”
Imperial Doctor Zhou said excitedly: "Yes, yes, the two of us don't look alike, he, well, he...... His medical skills are very good! ”
The crowd was speechless.
Unexpectedly, "him" lasted for a long time, and Imperial Doctor Zhou couldn't say anything special about that clan brother for Lin Yu'an to identify.
Lin Ruochen smiled gently and said, "Don't worry, by the way, what is the name of your clan brother, and what is different from others?" ”
"His name is Zhou Jing!"
"An An, is the name right?" Lin Ruochen turned his head to look at his sister who was still "hiding" behind the wheelchair.
"I don't know." Lin Yu'an shook his head.
Mu Chen asked anxiously, "How could you not know?" Haven't you seen him? In fact, from the time Imperial Doctor Zhou said that his clan brother had higher medical skills, his heart was turbulent, and he looked at Xu Shizi from time to time.
It's just that the other party is still drinking tea as if it doesn't matter to him.
Looking at Mu Chen, who looked so anxious, Lin Yu'an seriously suspected that he might have misrecognized the role, maybe he was not the future King Mu.
"He didn't tell me his name."
Lin Yu'an explained in a low voice that when Doctor Zhou appeared, he told everyone that it would be good to call him Doctor Zhou, and after the people who had the epidemic were cured by him, everyone immediately changed their words to Doctor Zhou.
"Uh......"
Mu Chen smiled a little embarrassedly.
"Ahh
At this time, Imperial Doctor Zhou suddenly slapped his leg and shouted, which startled everyone present.
"I thought of it! My brother has been greedy and picky about food since he was a child. ”
Everyone: "......"
What kind of characteristic is this?!
Unexpectedly, Lin Yu'an said: "If this is the case, then the divine doctor should be your clan brother." ”
Everyone was stunned.
Lin Ruochen asked, "How can An An be so sure?!" ”
"Hmm......" Lin Yu'an hesitated, but still said, "During that time, Doctor Zhou ate at my place. ”
Lin Ruochen frowned.
When he wanted to ask in detail, Qinghe came over with a plate of fried tofu.
The little boy immediately jumped up.
"What is this?!"
Qing He introduced with a smile, "This is fried tofu." ”
"Tofu? Like soy milk, is it also made from beans? The little boy asked curiously, with wide eyes.
Qinghe did not reply.
But Lin Yu'an took over the topic, "Yes, in fact, it is made of soy milk." ”
At this time, even Xu Shizi also raised his interest.
"Let's all try it." Lin Ruochen motioned for Qinghe to distribute the chopsticks to everyone.
Even Imperial Doctor Zhou got a pair.
"It's a little light, but it's good." Xu Shizi put down his chopsticks after tasting it, and looked at Lin Yu'an thoughtfully, "Listen to Ah Chen, these foods are all made by Miss Lin?" ”
Lin Yu'an shook his head.
"It's not."
"Oh?" Xu Shizi immediately looked at Mu Chen.
Mu Chen put down his chopsticks helplessly, "An An don't worry, Brother Xu and Imperial Doctor Zhou know about this." ”
Lin Yu'an said: "I really didn't do it." ”
"An An, you ......"
Mu Chen showed a puzzled expression.
Lin Yu'an pointed at Qinghe, "I didn't do it, it was done by Qinghe and my cook." ”
"Little naughty."
Lin Ruochen tapped his sister's forehead with his finger.
Everyone laughed, too.
Xu Shizi continued to ask as if he didn't care: "Such a wonderful practice, did you also listen to those traveling merchants?" ”
