Chapter 52: Xiao Xiao went to the pharmacy to see a doctor
Just do it, Guo Xiaoxiao hurriedly asked Xiaolan to hand over a pen and paper and write down the notice in detail. Then it was stamped with the seals of Zijin Fang and Hongxing Manor, and posted outside Zijin Fang.
On the second day, the guests who placed the order came to Zijin Fang to ask for an explanation, and when they saw the notice, they had palpitations. When he entered the inner room, he saw Lu Dongyang sitting next to the coffee table, and he didn't say anything more.
When Mr. Guo heard that Lu Dongyang came to Yangzhou and helped Zijinfang to turn evil into good fortune, he invited him to Guo's mansion for dinner.
In the evening, the embroidery girls all went to the backyard to eat, Guo Xiaoxiao and Lu Dongyang came downstairs.
Guo Xiaoxiao said with a smile: "This time I can get along safely, thanks to Lu Gongzi's help." ”
Lu Dongyang smiled: "I didn't do anything, or my father was thoughtful." I was about to leave Hangzhou that day, and he hurriedly sent a small servant to send me a seal, saying that it was of great use. ”
"Uncle Lu is really wise."
The two of them came out of Zijin Fang, looking at the rain outside, Guo Xiaoxiao said: "As soon as Lu Gongzi comes back to Yangzhou, let's go back on foot, and see the scenery all the way." ”
Xiaolan persuaded: "Miss is cold and can't blow the wind, so let's call a carriage." ”
Guo Xiaoxiao said: "I have to go back to the house to call a carriage, how troublesome it is to go back and forth." With Lu Gongzi walking together, the road will not be boring. ”
Lu Dongyang said with a smile: "The eldest lady is so elevated, then I have to obey my fate." ”
Xiaolan didn't say anything more, opened the umbrella to hold Guo Xiaoxiao, and handed Lu Dongyang another umbrella.
Several people went out to Lilac Lane, Guo Xiaoxiao and Lu Dongyang walked side by side, and Xiaolan walked behind Guo Xiaoxiao.
Lu Dongyang said with a smile: "The season for me to come is not right, you see that the lilacs along the way are all gone, and only the flower branches are left." ”
Guo Xiaoxiao looked back on both sides and said: "At first, in March and April, the flowers bloomed very well, and when Lu Gongzi comes back next year, he will definitely be able to appreciate the cloves." ”
Lu Dongyang nodded, and said: "I am the third oldest in the family, and I am a few years older than you, you can call me Third Brother Lu." Always call me Lu Gongzi, it seems to be raw. ”
"Yes." Guo Xiaoxiao lowered his head, "Then Third Brother Lu can call my name." ”
The two chatted about the streets and alleys and shops in Yangzhou again, and walked all the way to Guo's mansion. The little maid passed the word that Lu Dongyang had arrived, and Master Guo and Mrs. Guo hurriedly greeted him.
"Uncle Guo! Aunt Guo! Lu Dongyang smiled and bowed.
"Come on, come on, get up." Master Guo stepped forward to help him, "I haven't seen you for a few years, but San Lang has grown a lot taller." ”
"I'm in my twenties now, and I'm not going to grow long." He laughed.
"How could it be! The man will be thirty years old. Master Guo quipped, "The meals have already been prepared for you, let's go in and eat." ”
"Good!"
Several people walked in together. Master Guo and Mrs. Guo said some greetings at the dinner table, and asked Lu Dongyang to stay in Yangzhou for a few more days.
Lu Dongyang wanted to refuse, but Master Guo was hospitable, and said that he wanted to write to Hangzhou and ask the owner of Lu Zhuang to let Lu Dongyang live in Yangzhou. In this way, Lu Dongyang will not be able to shirk.
Mrs. Guo asked her subordinates to clean up the room in the north wing and took Lu Dongyang in.
"The house is simpler, and I hope Saburo won't blame it." Mrs. Guo said.
Lu Dongyang stepped forward and dusted off the futon and looked around the room, the room was not big, but it was complete.
He smiled and said, "It's good, I like this house." ”
"If you want to be short or missing, just tell me. I don't live far away, just a few steps away. ”
"Auntie arranged it so well for me, how can there be any incompleteness!" He laughed.
"I raise all daughters, I don't know what your boy's family needs on weekdays." Mrs. Guo looked ashamed, and then beckoned to let the little servant in, "This person will be sent to you, you just have to call." ”
Mrs. Guo said to the little servant again: "You have to serve the son of the Lu family for a good life, dare to be lazy, I will turn around and let the master punish you." ”
The little servant hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Yes, the slave should serve wholeheartedly." ”
"Alas, Auntie doesn't need to arrange for me to be served." Lu Dongyang stopped.
"How can that work! When you come to our Guo family, you are a distinguished guest......"
"I'm used to being alone on weekdays, but I'm not used to having one more person in the room." He excused himself.
"Really?" Mrs. Guo's doting eyes.
"Seriously." He smirked.
"That little guy is exempt, but if you need anything, you must come and tell me."
"Yes."
"Then I won't bother you here."
"Auntie walks slowly." Lu Dongyang is another arch.
Mrs. Guo finally took the little maid and the maid away, Lu Dongyang smiled, shook his head again, and thought to himself, Guo Xiaoxiao is really happy to have such a mother, but if it is changed to him, he will not be comfortable.
He is used to being unrestrained in Hangzhou, there is no girl and a little girl in the room, and if he has any errands on weekdays, he mostly does it himself.
After a long night, Lu Dongyang fell asleep on the bed. Guo Xiaoxiao's room was still lit up.
Xiaolan spread out the quilt for Guo Xiaoxiao and said, "Today, thanks to this Lu Gongzi." ”
Guo Xiaoxiao sat at the table, holding his forehead with his hand and concentrating.
"Although the master has a wide range of ways in business, why haven't I heard the master talk about this Lu Saburo before?" Little Landau.
Guo Xiaoxiao slept a little deeply, and his head slipped off his hand.
Xiaolan is still chattering: "This Lu Saburo is really a talent, the lord and the lady are trying to keep him again, is it possible, do you want to match the young lady with a marriage?" ”
Xiaolan said very energetically, her eyes lit up, Guo Xiaoxiao dragged her body to the side of the bed, she couldn't hear what Xiaolan was saying at all, and fell asleep on the bed.
"Miss!" Xiaolan stepped forward and shook her.
"What are you doing?" Guo Xiaoxiao closed his eyes, and his voice was very lazy.
"You say, will the master want to draw a red line with you and Lu Gongzi?" Xiaolan thought for a while and said, "If that's the case, what should Young Master Cousin do?" ”
Guo Xiaoxiao was really sleepy, he didn't want to open his eyes, and his brain had already fallen asleep.
"Miss!" Xiaolan shook her again.
Seeing that she was already asleep, Xiaolan was covered with a quilt by her. Guo Xiaoxiao turned over and slept against the wall. Xiaolan sighed, closed the door and retreated.
The next day, Guo Xiaoxiao got up, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and opened his mouth to call Xiaolan, but he couldn't make a sound.
"Ahem." Guo Xiaoxiao coughed vigorously and didn't come out.
She got up and put on her clothes, walked over to the table, poured a glass of water, and drank it all.
"Ahem." She strained again, but coughed it out.
Xiao Lan heard the sound and walked in: "Miss." ”
Guo Xiaoxiao didn't answer, with a helpless expression, he pointed to the position of his throat. Xiaolan immediately understood, and went to the hanger to take a big cloak and put it on Guo Xiaoxiao.
"Yesterday in Zijinfang, I saw that there was a drizzle outside, so I asked the young lady to take a carriage back. But Miss is not following me! ”
Xiaolan went out, and when she came back, she took a pot of hot boiling water, poured a cup for Guo Xiaoxiao, and said angrily: "If Miss is willing to follow me, she won't feel cold." ”
Guo Xiaoxiao pursed his lips, looking impatient. If it was usual, she would definitely go back, but now that she can't make a sound, she can only keep her mouth shut.
Xiao Zhu, the female envoy beside Mrs. Guo, came to the east wing room to send a message: "Miss, breakfast is ready, Mrs. invites Miss to go to the hall to eat." ”
Guo Xiaoxiao's schedule is different from that of Mr. Guo and Mrs. Guo, so she eats her own on weekdays. Today, there is more Lu Dongyang in Guofu, so he wants the big guys to eat together.
Xiaolan saw that Guo Xiaoxiao was sick, so she wanted to excuse herself. Guo Xiaoxiao's eyes signaled, and Xiaolan went to talk back to Xiaozhu.
"Sister Lao passed the word and said that the eldest lady would be there in a while."
"Okay, then please come over quickly."
Xiaolan bowed, watched Xiaozhu leave, and went back to the room to get dressed up for Guo Xiaoxiao.
After a quarter of an hour, the two of them walked to the antechamber. Guo Xiaoxiao saluted and sat down next to Mrs. Guo.
Master Guo said: "Why did you come, the food is going to be cold." ”
Guo Xiaoxiao lowered his head, a little sorry.
Lu Dongyang said: "Maybe it's cold, and it's common for my sister to be sleepy." ”
Mrs. Guo smiled: "She, she can't get out of bed when it's cold, so she makes you laugh." ”
"No problem." Lu Dongyang looked nonchalant, "It's all my own family, there's nothing to blame." ”
Master Guo picked up the chopsticks and said with a smile: "That's right, it's all your own family, you don't have to be restrained, eat and eat." ”
Guo Xiaoxiao casually picked up the rice bowl, smelled the fragrance, and smiled secretly, ah, meat porridge! She picked up the spoon and ate it.
Lu Dongyang couldn't help laughing when he saw her eating so happily, but Master Guo and Mrs. Guo were beside him, so he didn't dare to make a sound.
Although Guo Xiaoxiao had a good appetite for the porridge, he didn't want to eat it after eating a small bowl, so he took Xiaolan out of the hall with a smile.
The two of them came from Guo's mansion and walked in the alley, Xiaolan said, "Miss, where are we going?" ”
Guo Xiaoxiao wanted to speak, pinched his throat with his hand, and made an extremely hoarse voice: "Pharmacy." ”
Today, the weather is fine and the floor is dry, Guo Xiaoxiao and Xiaolan went to Lilac Lane. I didn't have time to go to Zijinfang, so I rushed to Yuan's pharmacy first.
As soon as the weather is cold, there seem to be more people in the pharmacy than before. Guo Xiaoxiao lined up on the side. Da Zhe saw her, walked into Yuan Shaocheng's ear and said a few words, and retreated.
Seeing Yuan Shaocheng's expressionless and unfazed appearance, Da Zhe waved his hand at Guo Xiaoxiao. originally wanted to give Guo Xiaoxiao a team.
Guo Xiaoxiao smiled and shook his head. Anyway, it's not a rush disease, so let's line up first.
After about two quarters of an hour, it was finally Guo Xiaoxiao's turn. She sat down, stretched out her right hand, and rolled up her sleeves.
Yuan Shaocheng didn't look up, and put the silk handkerchief on her wrist for a while. He lifted his eyes to look at her, and the two pairs of eyes met.
"Open your mouth and stick your tongue out." He said lightly.
Guo Xiaoxiao did so. He looked at her carefully, observed her complexion, and said, "When did you get it?" ”
Guo Xiaoxiao just wanted to speak, Xiaolan said, "Yesterday." ”
"Do you have a fever?"
Xiaolan stepped forward and touched Guo Xiaoxiao's forehead: "It seems, it's not hot." ”
"Is there phlegm?"
Guo Xiaoxiao sat sickly, and handed over all the words to Xiaolan to answer.
"Yes." Xiaolan glanced at Guo Xiaoxiao and was a little embarrassed, "Miss can't speak because of this phlegm." ”
"Ahem." Guo Xiaoxiao coughed suddenly.
Xiaolan was startled and stepped back a little.
