Chapter 24

There are many eunuchs in the Tai Hospital, and the residence is tighter than the female medical hall, and the Lotus Whisker Courtyard is a large set of courtyards, where all the eunuchs live, and the small courtyard at the bottom is the residence of Du's father-in-law and the place where the father-in-law in charge of the office works.

Standing in front of the corner gate of this small courtyard, Doctor Xie handed over the waist card to Yu Gui, and asked her to go into the main house alone to report Aunt Xiao's physical condition to Du's father-in-law, and told him that the succession list would be handed over in the next few days.

Yu Gui didn't understand the reason, but he still went in honestly alone, and showed the waist card to the little eunuch at the door tremblingly.

At this time, it was the time for the little eunuchs to work, there was no one in the Lotus Whisker Courtyard, and on such a cold day, the little eunuchs who were cleaning didn't know where to go, and no one helped to report, so Doctor Xie directly opened the cotton curtain in the east wing and stepped in.

"Yo, it's Doctor Xie, I haven't seen you for a long time, why do you have time to sit here today?" There was a young eunuch of eighteen or nineteen years old sitting behind the desk under the window by the door, with paper and ink on the table, holding a pen in his hand, as if he was copying something.

"I'll borrow a few medical books, you're busy with yours, is Gonggong Li in it?"

"I'm eating tea, and I've just led everyone to the big study in front to tidy up, and I'm tired."

"Got it, it won't be long, I'll be out right away." Doctor Xie took out a small amount of money and handed it over, then bypassed him and went into her right hand.

Curtains hung on both sides of the floor-to-ceiling hood, and a figure could be faintly seen behind it.

Doctor Xie stood in front of the curtain and called softly, "Gonggong Li, slave Xie Lingzhi." ”

"It's Ganoderma lucidum, come in." The voices inside the curtain sounded a little tired.

After listening to the greeting inside, Mrs. Xie gently lifted the curtain and stepped in, and then walked to the desk and saluted solemnly.

This room was also crowded with bookshelves, and the only place that was a little more spacious was the desk under the window, behind which sat an old eunuch in his forties, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, looking at the visitor with a smile.

"Lingzhi greets my father-in-law."

"That's it, come on, talk to my father-in-law."

Doctor Xie approached Grandpa Li's side, the two gossiped about homework, and Grandpa Li also asked some homework to see if Doctor Xie had really read those borrowed medical books, and the result was naturally very happy.

Doctor Xie took out a cloth bag from her arms, and when she opened it, there were two medical books, the pages of which were very old, but the staple rope was still half-new, and it was obvious that someone had maintained it regularly.

"Father-in-law, these are the two books I borrowed last time, and they will be returned to Zhao." Mrs. Xie put the book on Grandpa Li's desk.

"Well, what other books do you want to borrow this time?" Gonggong Li flipped through the pages of the book to confirm that it was correct, got up and put it back on the shelf. Looking at his unhesitating movements, it can be seen that the business is proficient.

"I want to borrow ...... this time" Doctor Xie reported two more titles, and Father-in-law Li found them from the bookshelf one by one, and Doctor Xie wrapped them in cloth and carefully put them in her arms.

"Father-in-law, Lingzhi still has something to ask for."

"Oh? It's rare to see you ask for something, so let's hear it. ”

"That's right, Aunt Xiao's health is already well, and she will have to decide who will succeed her in the next few days. It's just that during the days when she was recuperating, there was a little girl who was very pleasing to her, and she wanted to do a good deed before leaving, to help this girl change to a light job, so she asked me to check the original roster to see how to think of a way. ”

"Listen to you like that, that girl is not her subordinate?"

"Naturally not, it's under another aunt, who is attentive and careful, thanks to her, Aunt Xiao is well raised."

"Oh, I see, that's how it should be, even if it's for one's own blessings, that's how it should be. It's just that Aunt Xiao also has a copy of the roster in her hand, so she can just take a look at it. ”

"Well, don't mention it, it's all a joke. The padlock of the lock roster box somehow rusted to death, and it couldn't be opened, and we couldn't find a hammer to knock it off, because the movement was too loud, which inevitably attracted the curiosity of the other aunts, so they had to ask their father-in-law with a shy face. Doctor Xie covered her mouth and was happy, as if she remembered the scene at that time and felt funny.

"Hahahaha, I said, it's no wonder, the roster is rare to turn over once or twice a year, the box has not been opened for a long time, and there is no way to rust the lock, you are selfish, and it is really not good to smash the lock for this matter. Anyway, I'll show you the main book, which year do you want to check the roster? Father-in-law Li also seemed to have heard a joke and was overjoyed.

"Six years of Thuan An."

Gonggong Li stopped laughing and walked to the depths of the room, and Doctor Xie followed until the bottom, where the narrow wall opposite was occupied by a large shelf, which was filled with all kinds of boxes, large and small.

Gonggong Li bent down and opened a large wooden box, which contained stacks of rosters. Gonggong Li flipped through the pages and pulled out the list of women in Shun'an for six years.

"Here, the original is here."

"Thank you, father-in-law."

Mrs. Xie took the register, pretending to see it for the first time, flipped it back from the beginning, and it took some time to turn to the page of He Xiangru, and the words "Father He Dawei, Langzhong" were clearly written on it at home.

Doctor Xie turned her head and didn't look at Xiangru's page again, but stared at another page of irrelevant girls next to her, but she sneered in her heart.

Fortunately, fortunately, thanks to his own persistence, he found out the truth, He Xiangru is really unusual, the doctor's daughter did not enter the pharmacy but went into the kitchen to do things, the one who copied the copy of the roster back then was really bold, and the behind-the-scenes commander who bought the scribe was even more bold, and dared to disobey the emperor's order for a girl!

No matter who secretly did the good deeds back then, if she discovers the truth today, it will definitely not be as that person intended.

"Ganoderma lucidum, found it?" Seeing that Doctor Xie was staring at the page without blinking, Gonggong Li called her.

"Oh, father-in-law, I found it, it's this girl, I'll go back to Aunt Xiao and ask her to arrange it as soon as possible. Thank you father-in-law for your help. Doctor Xie closed the page with a smile and returned the roster to Grandpa Li.

Gonggong Li put the roster back on the box and closed the lid, "Hey, you often come here to borrow books, my father-in-law knows that you are a good boy who reads diligently, and sometimes when I see that I am uncomfortable, he will instruct me to use medicine, and it is nothing to look at the roster." ”

"Aunt Xiao was afraid that her father-in-law wouldn't let her see it, but she knew that her father-in-law was so refreshing, and she was right when she said it, and she turned around and let the girl know that she remembered her father-in-law for a while."

"Hehehehe......" Gonggong Li coaxed happily.

"Okay, okay, you've been out long enough, go back quickly, don't let the wait over there be in a hurry, didn't you say that the list will be handed over in a few days, and the next thing is the handover, so you have to be busy."

"Hey, I'll go back first, and next time I come to see my father-in-law, please keep my father-in-law for a cup of tea." Doctor Xie put a silver horn in Gonggong Li's hand, bowed obediently, and gently lifted the curtain and left.

Out of the study, Dr. Xie looked around the neighborhood, and found the cinnamon in the sheltered corner outside the corner door, the little girl didn't know how long she had waited, she was a little shivering, her hands were cold, Dr. Xie quickly took her hand and the two walked back to the women's hospital quickly.

Stepping into the door of the women's medical hall and going straight back to Aunt Xiao's courtyard, along the way, Doctor Xie and Yu Gui pretended not to care about the curious and inquiring eyes around them, and after entering the house, they quickly called Madder to help Yu Gui cook ginger soup and change clothes, and she went to talk to Aunt Xiao.

"You're back, sit down and rest, have you found it?" Aunt Xiao took the waist card handed back by Doctor Xie and put it back in the treasure box.

"Got it." Doctor Xie crossed her waist and walked around the room a few times, and then sat down in front of the bed, "Gonggong Li asked why you didn't check the copy in your hand directly, and I was confused on the grounds that the lock of the box was rusty and couldn't be opened, so he showed me the original." ”

"How?" Aunt Xiao faintly felt a trace of apprehension in her heart.

"Auntie, someone has done something."

"What!? Seriously? Aunt Xiao frowned in disbelief.

"It's true, I see it. On the page of He Shiitake mushroom, the word 'Langzhong' is clearly written in her family's livelihood. This girl was supposed to be a pharmacy, but somehow she went to the kitchen and stayed there for four years, wasting a good time studying medicine! She was just a ten-year-old girl back then, and someone actually had the intention to harm her, it's really hateful! Mrs. Xie lowered her voice and scolded angrily.

"That'...... So what now? If she is just transferred to the pharmacy to do rough work, it is not difficult, but if you want her to study medicine, she will be old, and it will take time to study medicine, I am afraid that she will pass the age of the exam after she has completed her studies. ”

"No, that's not necessarily, she's fourteen years old now, and the upper age limit for the doctor's exam is eighteen, and she may have a little foundation, and it may be easier to teach, four years is almost enough, but I don't know if she will move from the kitchen to the pharmacy. After all, she is now an official cook, and the pharmacy manager is Aunt Fang, so it is not surprising if she is afraid that life will be difficult in the future. ”

"Yes, these two aunts have always been at odds, and Aunt Rong's heavy girl was suddenly transferred to the pharmacy, and I don't know how Aunt Fang will be angry with her. Besides, even if we want to adjust, if Aunt Rong doesn't let go, we can't forcibly take people. ”

"I know that, too, but it's heart-wrenching to have such a good girl in the kitchen. The roster is really strange, and with the relationship between the two aunts, they are suspicious in this matter. It may be that Aunt Fang did not want to accept Aunt Rong's distant relatives so she designed it, or it could be that Aunt Rong did not want her relatives' children to fall into the hands of Aunt Fang. ”

"And who do you think is more likely?"

Lady Xie pondered for a while, "I think Aunt Rong is more suspicious, I think Xiangru is her distant relative's business, Aunt Fang may not know about it at that time, who will tell people about this matter everywhere?" But then again, Xiangru is just her distant relative, she has been in the palace for decades, where will she know what Xiangru's family does. In addition, there is another suspicion, this distant relative is just what they said, and it is not known whether it is true or not, but they are of the same nationality, and it is not impossible to say that they are relatives. I just don't know who it will be who secretly communicated with Aunt Rong, leaving Xiangru, who was supposed to be sent to the pharmacy, in the kitchen. After all, it takes a long time for the girls to be screened from the first day they enter the palace to the time they are finally trained and assigned to various places, and this time is enough for people with a heart to do what they want. ”

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
