At noon, Mrs. Xie came back to eat, and by the way, she checked the homework of the two apprentices in the morning, Xiangru passed the test smoothly, without any problems, and Mrs. Xie also praised Xiangru for her good memory, and she could memorize more texts next time, and end the enlightenment education as soon as possible. And Madder stuck a bunch of problems, anyway, she was too young, and she lacked basic literature and history education, and many of the contents of the book could read words but didn't understand their meaning, so Mrs. Xie felt the need to go to the big study in front of her to borrow a few auxiliary books for Madder.

After the meal, after the middle sleep, Xie Yipo went to work, Xiangru took the dirty clothes of the three of them to the back pulp washing room, and after handing over Xie Yipo's clothes to those old palace people, she went to the well to fetch water to wash her and Madder's clothes, where she happened to meet Tiandong and Mai Dong, and there was also a group of inferior palace people.

Erdong was very happy to see Xiangru, so he made room for her, and the three of them huddled together and chatted while washing clothes.

Although Xiangru's clothes have not changed, Tiandong and Mai Dong still feel that Xiangru has changed a lot, and they also want to know how Xiangru is doing recently, their eyes are always on Xiangru's ears and hair bun, and it is a privilege to be able to wear jewelry, which is the difference between them and the inferior palace people.

Xiangru satisfied their curiosity a little, talked about their hard work, and never mentioned the private matter between Dr. Xie, but Tiandong and Mai Dong took the initiative to ask her what the relationship with Madder was, and now there are rumors among the girls that Madder hates her.

Xiangru hurriedly refuted the rumors, and even said that there was no such thing, and she had a good relationship with Madder.

But look at the nervous expression on her face, let alone others, even Erdong didn't believe that what she said was true, if it was really a good relationship, how could she always see Madder making a stinky face at her outside?

Besides, how many of these clothes in this pile today are not hers, right? Tut-tut, it's really pitiful, not only to serve the master, but also to serve the senior sister.

The more Xiangru said that she had a good relationship with Madder, the more strange the look of those people became, and they didn't bother to say anything more about Xiangru after refuting a few rumors, they could think whatever they liked.

Er Dong also noticed the attitude of the people around him, and lowered his voice to remind Xiangru that for the sake of his future, it is better to find a way to have a good relationship with Madder.

After more than half an hour, Xiangru washed her clothes and returned to the yard, first sent Madder's clothes to her room, and by the way, she brought her afternoon snack back to her house, and sat down to eat after drying her clothes.

The trouble with this yard is that there is no place to dry clothes outside, so you can only pull a clothesline in the house, and put a few basins under the clothes to catch the dripping water. Xiangru is very unhappy about this, after all, modern people's concept of hygiene, underwear should also be dried in the sun, which is annoying to dry clothes that can't see the sun.

After eating the snacks and cleaning up, Xiangru went to the pantry and poured a pot of hot boiling water, then returned to the house and closed the door to practice calligraphy with peace of mind.

Mrs. Xie first answered the questions that Madder had when she was studying in the afternoon, and Xiangru sat quietly on the side and listened, comparing it with what she had learned, and remembering the new knowledge points in her mind and turning them into her own things.

After solving the madder's homework, it was still a little short of dinner time, and Xiangru took the opportunity to tell Dr. Xie the news she heard in the pulp washing room in the afternoon.

"This rumor is spreading?"

"I don't know, but looking at the expressions of those people around me, it seems that everyone knows it."

"Well, I'm afraid they're not interested."

"Master, you are really, you didn't tell me at first, the first time you saw Madder's cold face, you thought I had offended her. Then one after another, I was completely kept in the dark, and I didn't know what you were planning, and I was so nervous every time I talked to them. ”

"Why, I think you're doing well, you're smart, and that kind of cowardice is better than a hundred words you say. They want to watch a play, so I show them a play, and I deliberately don't tell you, just to ask your real reaction to increase the credibility of the play. The younger sister doesn't like the older sister, and the younger sister whispers to please the senior sister for entering the teacher's door, and endures the oppression of the senior sister in every way after entering the teacher's door. What do you think? Do you think the audience is still satisfied with this play? ”

"I think the audience is fascinated, master, are we going to keep playing this play?"

"Before you take the TCM exam, you both have to be like that outside. Like today, it's very good, you go to wash the clothes of two people alone, and now those who like to chew their tongues must be rumored that the junior sister is bullied by the senior sister, and the junior sister is not valued by the teacher, and so on. The more you are bullied, the more you can eliminate the hostility of those people towards you, and you can study with peace of mind, even if you really take the Chinese medicine exam in advance in the future, it can be said that you are not willing to be bullied and work hard. ”

Mrs. Xie smiled with a hint of pride, "There is no better drama than this." Aunt Fang is an old and cunning person, she can contact the people in the Tai Hospital, once she is suspicious, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not want to check the files, and secretly make some silver is very easy to do, Li Gonggong She can't find it, and she can also find the little eunuch under him. If she finds out that you are actually from a doctor's family, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not make any trouble, so why should we waste this time with her. ”

Xiangru was dumbfounded, sure enough, she was still unfamiliar with the environment she was in, and she only thought of the most superficial side, and she didn't associate the relationship between Aunt Fang and Tai Hospital at all, if she really found out, it would be a troublesome matter.

"When you say this, I don't feel at ease with Aunt Rong, do you want to find an opportunity to go to Aunt Rong to steal files? With cinnamon as the internal response, this thing should not be difficult. ”

"No! It's best not to do anything, it's easy to replace your page of files, but you have to think that if something causes Aunt Fang's suspicions, you go to Gonggong Li to find the original file, find out your true identity, and make a fuss. I checked it above and saw the same copy from Aunt Rong, so how can you explain the reason why you didn't enter the pharmacy but went into the kitchen? Under the instigation of people with intentions, this matter will become more and more complicated, although it may not necessarily implicate you, but it will always delay your time to study, why bother. ”

"Uh...... It's complicated! ”

"So, don't do anything, so you don't have to worry about Aunt Fang going to check the files. Only by exposing the difference between the original and the copy can you save Aunt Rong and Aunt Xiao. Because at that time, you couldn't help yourself, she just acted according to orders, and Aunt Xiao just sent people according to the roster, what does it have to do with the three of you if the roster is wrong? Even if someone shakes out the relationship between you and Aunt Rong, Aunt Rong can also be cleaned up on the grounds that she has been in the palace for many years and does not know the situation at home, even if there are some rumors, they can't set off too much turmoil, and the last unlucky guy is probably looking for the little eunuch who copied the file back then, and the matter is over. ”

"That's right, master's tricks!" Xiangru nodded thoughtfully and slowly.

"So, you just have to put your heart boldly in your stomach and read to me well. Having said that, the three of us Xie Xia and the two families haven't left yet, even if Aunt Fang really finds out the truth, she doesn't dare to make trouble while we are still there, she is a native of the capital, she doesn't have the courage to fall out with us, she must be holding back her strength and waiting for us to leave before cleaning you up, and lend you to embarrass Aunt Rong. So, take advantage of this rare time to read to me, and reading books is more important than anything else. ”

"Well, I know, I won't be taken lightly." With the current relationship between the current Tai Hospital envoy and the uncle of the Great Xia Medical Mother, if Aunt Fang makes trouble, it will really not be beneficial to her, presumably those people in the upper echelons of the Tai Hospital have more or less intertwined relationships with the major families in the capital, and Aunt Fang really has no capital to confront these people with Xie Yipo.

"Well, I also believe that you have this talent, I see that you have been reciting very fast in the past two days, why don't you memorize more homework tomorrow, and just memorize the rest of the pulse like poems? After a few days you have memorized the four words, we will start to learn the Three Character Sutra. ”

"Huh?! Master, you've changed the topic too quickly! ”

"Doctors should be clean and neat, and they should not procrastinate." Mrs. Xie raised her eyebrows and smiled.

"Yes, I see." Xiangru wilted.

Madder was already laughing beside her.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Everyone who has come from the school days will admit that students are the happiest when they recall campus life, and that student life is indeed very comfortable when they grow up under the care of parents and teachers compared to the hard work after leaving the society.

In her previous life, when Xiangru was sometimes too busy with work or encountered something unsmooth, she also thought about going back to school to avoid the complicated and tangled world, recharge her batteries and start again, but she didn't have time to take action before she arrived in this new world. Now that I have a new master and entered the master's door, it can be regarded as the realization of a small wish in my previous life, and Xiangru enjoys it.

Daily routine of work and rest, reading and memorizing in the morning, practicing words in the afternoon, reviewing in the evening, young body has a strong memory, no matter how long the text can be memorized within a limited time, and then from time to time coveting the master's bookshelf is a different kind of fun.

I don't know the years and months in the deep palace, and for those of them who can't step out of the women's medical hall, they always feel that there is not much difference when they don't celebrate the holidays, because they can't see the difference between festivals and weekdays in their daily diet.

First of all, the beginning of spring passed quietly, and then the Shangyuan Festival quietly went away unconsciously, there was no festival in the women's medical hall, only the Tai Hospital sent a festival gift to the doctors, and the doctors and women gathered together to celebrate the festival.

The first month of the new year inadvertently disappeared between the pages, and in early February, Xiangru's enlightenment course was coming to an end, and the four enlightenment textbooks to learn were memorized so well, even Doctor Xie couldn't believe that Xiangru was so smart. The two Xia Yipo didn't believe it when they heard it, and they all came to test Xiangru, no matter how they pulled their backs, Xiangru could recite them fluently, only slightly worse than reciting them backwards.

"Xiangru has really surprised people again and again, Zi Yan, thanks to your discernment, you dug her out of the kitchen, otherwise you would have wasted a talent." The Great Xia Doctor put down the "Medicinal Properties Fu" in her hand and said with great joy.

"Smart is smart, and the time to study is still not enough, right? Sister Ziyan, have you thought about her future path? It's not easy to do medical treatment. "Doctor Xiao Xia is still that kind of cold look.

"Why do you have to be a doctor like us? Isn't that a waste of her greatest strength? "Doctor Xia's question, Doctor Xie seems to have planned for a long time, and she smiled confidently.

Xiangru was confused, could it be that her future direction Xie Yipo had thought about herself? She hadn't even thought about it herself.

"Are you thinking about something these days? You are always like this, you hide any questions in your heart and think about them yourself, and in the end you only give you an answer. "For their sisters, the two Xia Yisha can be said to have a deep understanding.

"I think the disease doctor is good, but isn't there another way to go besides the disease doctor? She's already short on time, so why waste time doing everything she does best? "Doctor Xie is still selling Guanzi.

"What the hell are you going to say?" The Great Xia Doctor was impatient to talk nonsense, "I hate you for this, you have the answer and nonsense, tell me the point!" ”

"She came out of the kitchen, she is a good cook, and the food tastes clear, why should she be a disease doctor? It's obviously a good food and medical material. Urged by her cousin, Dr. Xie immediately threw out the point.

"Female food doctor?" The two Xia doctors glanced at each other, and they both clapped their hands happily, "Yes, there are very few female food doctors, and Xiangru has a unique advantage." ”

"Food doctor?!" Xiangru's heart was beating faster, and her thoughts were flying, wasn't the food doctor a nutritionist, did she really have a chance to return to her old business in her previous life?

"Yes, food doctor. I've been thinking about your future for a long time, and I've been swinging back and forth between food doctors and disease doctors, and finally I still feel that it's a pity to waste your greatest advantage, anyway, there are very few female food doctors, and only you know how to cook the existing doctors and apprentices, what a good innate advantage! If you embark on this road, not only will the palace attach importance to you, but the medical hall outside the palace will chase you to your house to hire you in the future, and the future is bright. ”

"Zi Yan has thought of everything, Xiangru, what do you think?" The Great Xia Doctor asked with a smile.

"Okay, okay, I'm a food doctor, there's no problem, I will definitely study hard." Xiangru hurriedly agreed. In this strange world where there is nothing, even a little familiar thing can give great comfort to the soul, not to mention returning to the old business, which gives Xiangru the greatest sense of security, and nothing can replace this.

"Look at it, it's all excited. But if we change to food medicine, we can't do anything about it. Zi Yan, you're going to change her master. Really thought about it? There have been no female disciples in the Tai Hospital for many years. "The Great Xia Doctor's brain is spinning fast.

"Change masters? Too Hospital? Do you want to learn food medicine and worship the imperial doctor as a teacher? Xiangru heard it.

"The vast majority of the doctors who came out of the women's medical hall were disease doctors, and only a few food doctors had been intermittently released, because they couldn't find a master in the women's medical hall, and without exception, they all worshiped the imperial doctor as a teacher. Now we still don't have a food doctor here, you have to be a food doctor, and you can only worship the Tai Doctor as a teacher. The Great Xia Doctor explained to Xiangru.

"Does it have to be like this? Do I have to change places again? Thinking that it might be taught by a high-level imperial doctor in the future, Xiangru couldn't wait for a little joy.

"Live or live here, it's just that you have to go to the Tai Hospital every day to attend classes, unless you are willing to squeeze a kang with the eunuchs." Xiao Xia said to the doctor.

Xiangru hurriedly shook her head.

"I think it's good, it's not bad for Xiangru to have more contact with the imperial doctors, one is to be protected by the imperial doctors, although the two imperial doctors are all men over thirty years old and have families, but they are normal and healthy men, they have normal preferences, sometimes they have to chat with them when they are free, they will say something outside the palace, which is somewhat a comfort for us, and we don't have to go out of the palace one day and don't even recognize the way home." The Great Xia Doctor lay on the table with her arms on her chin and looked melancholy.

"The Imperial Doctor doesn't live in the palace?" Xiangru's mind didn't know where to go, and blurted out.

"Nonsense. The imperial physicians are high-ranking ministers, and the imperial hospital is an institution of the outer dynasty and is not under the management of the inner court. To put it mildly, no emperor is worried about letting a group of men stay in his house at night, okay? The posture of the Great Xia doctor did not move, and she stared at her eyebrows, "Out of the gate of the Tai Hospital, through the two palace gates, it is outside the palace, and one mile along the street is the Yong'an Gate of the imperial city, and out of the Yong'an Gate is the upper and lower city where the officials and nobles, the common people, the official mansion and the yamen coexist." Otherwise, you think it's so easy to send things in the house? If you really want to return to the inner court and return things, it's good to see a few letters a year. ”

Xiangru jumped up and rushed out of the door and ran into the hallway, staring at the blue sky above her head.

I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that the hospital would be adjacent to the street. It's just two palace gates, a few palace walls, but people can't get out when they come in, and the free world is just a stone's throw away, but I don't know when I can step through.

Just as Xiangru was staring at the sky and thinking wildly, a small hand behind her gently put on her shoulder and woke her up, but the other party didn't speak, and directly took her hand and turned back to the house.

The three old doctors in the house were sitting and drinking tea, and when they saw that Madder had brought back Xiangru, they didn't say anything to blame, as if Xiangru had just rushed out of the house in a gaffe had never happened at all.

"Study hard, and you'll be able to get out." Doctor Xie said as she motioned for Xiangru to sit down beside her.
