Chapter 169: Early Morning
Xie Yan nodded, "Can you come back on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, and I'll take you to watch the dragon boat race?" ”
Maoyuan Mansion is not only near the sea, but also has a Furong River in the house, which can be used by boats to walk, and every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, dragon boat races will be held on the Furong River.
Organized by the government and the noble gentry in the city, the dragon boat team is from the government, nobles, wealthy gentry, merchants, etc., no matter which team wins the first place, they can get the prizes jointly sponsored by these parties.
When Qu Wenshu came before, he also mentioned the dragon boat race, Qu Wenshu and Qu Xinghui are two sisters and brothers, Qu Jing is busy with official business, and there is no adult man in the family with him, Qu Jing and Jiang are not at ease to let the two sisters and brothers come out to watch the dragon boat race together.
Even if there are guards to follow, it is not good, Song Xiaochi understands Qu Jing and Jiang's concerns, with Qu Wenshu's temperament, where do the guards and subordinates take care of her, so when Qu Wenshu came to Song Xiaochi, she was quite flattering, that is, she wanted Song Xiaochi to persuade Xie Yan that if he was free on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, I hope he could come forward and take them to the Furong River to watch the dragon boat race.
Now that Xie Yan has proposed it himself, Song Xiaochi said: "Sister Shu'er also said that she wants to go to see the dragon boat race, and then we will bring Sister Shu'er and Brother Hui with us, as well as coral lotus roots, they haven't gone out for a long time since the hospital opened."
Xie Yan paused slightly, and glanced at Song Xiaochi a little depressed, he originally wanted to be with her, he just wanted to be with her, but now there are four more people at once, in fact, it is more than that, if Qu Wenshu and Qu Xinghui want to go, the Qu family will definitely send guards and subordinates to follow, and then a large number of people will follow, let alone him and her, I am afraid that the two of them will not even find a chance to talk alone.
"What's the matter, there's ...... What's the problem? Song Xiaochi saw that Xie Yan didn't answer immediately, and asked suspiciously.
Xie Yan shook his head, "It's okay, I'll come back on the morning of the Dragon Boat Festival, pick you up at the hospital first, and then go to my aunt's house." ”
"Would you like to go talk to Madame first?"
Later, Song Xiaochi also went to Qu's house twice, both of which were invited by Jiang and Qu Wenshu, and she also saw a few ladies and girls who were good friends with the Qu family, but Song Xiaochi was a person who escaped from Kang Yongbo's mansion, and she was always a little taboo about people of that class, for fear that some of them had contact with Kang Yongbo's mansion, and the contact around the corner might also expose her news, so although Jiang and Qu Wenshu often called her to Qu's house, she always refused more and accepted less.
However, although she subconsciously reduced contact, she also knew that the Jiang family attached great importance to this pair of children, and she was not worried about them going out casually.
"I'll take them out, and my aunt will rest assured."
Song Xiaochi nodded, since he said so, it should be no problem.
Song Xiaochi said hello to Xie Yan, and after speaking, she went back to her alchemy pharmacy, she was recently trying to refine the Fat Condensation Pill, as the name suggests, it is a medicine that has a good effect on the skin.
Because this medicine is divided into pills and pastes, in fact, it is not easier to refine than the cough medicine antidiarrheal medicine refined before, but it is more cumbersome, only the pill Song Xiaochi has been refining for more than 20 days, and yesterday he just refined a few fat condensation pills with an effect of about fifty percent, this effect Song Xiaochi is not satisfied, she now has to make persistent efforts to chase after the victory, sometimes she feels that refining medicine is also a momentary epiphany, which is the result of accumulation, feeling, luck, and opportunity.
So Xie Yan finally came back, and she didn't have time to accompany him, leaving Xie Yan alone to walk around in front of the hospital and in the backyard, and then Cheng Lao was dizzy by him and gave him a task, that is, to stay in front and help or carry the patients who came to seek treatment.
Xie Yan didn't shirk it, he knew martial arts, had strength, and he might have had some of the arrogance and cleanliness of a noble son before, but now that he has been in the guard for so long, even if his arrogance and cleanliness still exist, they have been temporarily covered.
Therefore, this job is very suitable for him to do, and he has been thanked by patients and family members again and again, looking at the grateful and even touched faces, Xie Yan felt that he finally came back, but Song Xiaochi left him aside The resentment gradually disappeared.
Because Cheng Lao's medical skills are excellent, the consultation fee and medicine fee are not high, and whether it is Cheng Lao or Cheng Shenyi Song Xiaochi Coral Lotus Root, their attitude is very good, and there are several incurable diseases that have not been cured in other medical halls have been cured here, and the Liuxuan Medical Center is now famous, and it is a good reputation.
There are more and more patients who come here for treatment, and the busyness of Cheng Lao, Song Xiaochi and others can naturally be imagined, but fortunately, now Sang Qiuyan has also begun to learn to distinguish and grasp medicine, so that Song Xiaochi can find time to refine medicine.
Time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the Dragon Boat Festival has arrived.
Early in the morning, the sky is still with a faint green, the dawn mist is gradually dissipating, there is still a period of time before the sunrise, there is a fresh coolness in the air, the diligent Mu Zuo has been up for a while, he just took the door panel not long after, he saw a handsome white horse "dada" ran to the front of the medical hall, Mu Zuo first thought it was a person who came to see the doctor, just wanted to say to call the doctor, and when he looked up, he saw Xie Yan who turned over and dismounted.
"Childe is back?" Mu Zuo hurriedly stepped forward to help Xie Yan lead the horse.
"Son, go in, my family is making breakfast, this morning cooked zongzi, several flavors, the taste is very good, last night the girl ate three at once, and ate support, in the yard for two quarters of an hour, and ate big hawthorn pills, this is to eliminate the appetite. Now the zongzi should not be good, if the son is hungry, you can let my family steam a few steamed buns or eat the next bowl of noodle soup first, this is very fast. ”
Mu Zuo looks honest, giving people a feeling of being square and wooden, but his inner appearance is completely different from his appearance, he is very shrewd and capable, but his daughter-in-law is just the opposite, although she has a shrewd face, she is an honest person.
No, Mu Zuo led the horse around the back yard and tied it up, Xie Yan entered the hospital by himself, and went directly into the house behind, he came back early, Song Xiaochi hadn't gotten up yet, Coral and Sang Qiuyan got up, but they were still busy in the second house, and they didn't come to the front, so naturally they didn't know that Xie Yan was back, so Xie Yan went to the kitchen to take a look.
Yin Shi saw Xie Yan fiercely, and was shocked for a moment, before he stumbled and said, "Childe...... Childe is back? That one...... That zongzi is not good yet, can you wait a little longer? ”
This is what I said, when I was in Qufu, if she didn't have a capable husband, I don't know what life would be, which is why the Jiang family wanted to choose a capable steward to help Xie Yan, even if Mu Zuodang expressed his willingness or even recommended himself, he thought that his daughter-in-law was more suitable for the current environment.
