Chapter 247: Roger
But the next day, when Huo Sijin went to Tingsong Courtyard, where Huo Qingzhou lived, he was told that the eldest prince had gone out of the city with his friends early in the morning.
Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year, Huo Qingzhou is the eldest son of the Huo family, Huo Jiang used to be a pavilion elder, even now he is a bachelor of Hanlin Academy, and there are many people who come to visit, it stands to reason that Huo Qingzhou will either receive visitors instead of Huo Jiang, or he should also accompany Huo Jiang, but he went out of the city early in the morning to play.
Huo Sijin asked, "Does the eldest master know?" ”
The mother-in-law said: "Miss, did the eldest prince tell the eldest master, how can the slave and maid know." ”
Huo Si came back suspiciously, but in an hour, she knew that Huo Qingzhou went out and didn't tell Huo Jiang at all.
Because last year's champion and Bangyan came together, Huo Jiang asked people to call Huo Qingzhou, and then he knew that Huo Qingzhou was not in the house at all.
Huo Sijin didn't know what Huo Jiang's expression was when she heard it, but she deeply understood that her eldest brother was a person who didn't care about things.
At this time, Huo Roufeng also went out of the city with Zhanhuai, Roger, and Bi Daoyuan.
She has a small grange of 100 acres in 40 miles outside the city, although the Zhuangzi is not big, but it is very close to the capital, it is accompanied by mountains and water, the 100 acres of grange, including 30 acres of reeds, the reeds are produced in Beizhili, but there are not many plants near the capital, it is said that this Zhuangzi is early every year, there are merchants who come to collect reeds, and the remaining 70 acres of fields are vegetables that are planted, do not need to sell, exclusively for the Huo family in the capital of several restaurants, including Tianxianglou. In winter, I built a greenhouse and invited a master from Fengtai to grow some fresh dishes such as cucumbers and radishes, which sold very expensive, but they sold very well.
Therefore, this seemingly small grange has more income than some three or four hundred acres of Zhuangzi.
Huo Roufeng only knew yesterday that she still had such a Zhuangzi, she was curious, she entered the Zhuangzi, and she didn't care about the barbecue, and pulled Zhanhuai to wander around, but unfortunately the reeds were already frozen, and the ice was not solid, and a few stout women saw her coming, and shouted in a rough voice from a distance: "Whose child, this ice is thin, don't go up!" ”
The steward who accompanied her hurriedly shouted: "This is the owner here, shouting nonsense one by one." ”
When the women heard this, they really stopped shouting, but they looked at Huo Roufeng and Zhanhuai curiously, and whispered while watching, Huo Roufeng faintly heard "really handsome", "fine skin and tender meat", "The flesh and skin are whiter than the girl's house." ”
Zhanhuai also heard it, and grinned at Huo Roufeng: "They didn't say me." ”
Of course it's not him.
Zhanhuai just arrived in the capital, his skin was tanned, and after living for a few days, he gradually turned a little whiter, but it couldn't be compared with Huo Roufeng.
Huo Roufeng snorted and said proudly: "Of course they didn't say you." ”
She wanted to tell Zhanhuai that in her previous life, she put on men's clothes and quietly went to visit the Lantern Festival of the Metaverse, many little girls secretly looked at her, and some people threw purses at her.
When the two returned from the pond, half of the wild boar had already been set up on the fire.
Yesterday, Anhai came over to arrange, there was an open hall in Zhuangzi, and Anhai asked the steward in Zhuangzi to set up a barbecue rack, and the wild boar meat had been marinated in the kitchen, and the steward prepared sweet potatoes, peanuts, chestnuts and red dates, which were roasted and eaten together.
Listening to the sound of crackling and fiery chestnuts, looking at the bubbling wild boar, Huo Roufeng was very excited, and ran around the yard with two dogs.
Zhanhuai's eyes followed her, and there was a smile on his lips.
Roger said with a smile in fluent Chinese on the side: "The Ninth Master is a child-like, which is really commendable." ”
Zhanhuai looked back, and there was a smile in his eyes: "Well, she's still young." ”
Reluctantly, he withdrew his gaze and asked Roger, "Is your patient okay?" ”
Roger said: "It's okay, I'll take him back tomorrow to continue the treatment." ”
Zhan Huai saw that he didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask again, but he was secretly surprised in his heart, he had heard Huo Jiu say that the diseases treated by this Doctor Roger were all things that ordinary doctors couldn't do, and he didn't know what kind of disease the child named Xiao Yuan was suffering from? Could it be that she is also a stupid person like Su Li's daughter?
He suddenly became curious about Roger, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that Huo Roufeng had brought the big food box, so he said, "Listen to Xiao Jiu, this food box is also made by Dr. Luo?" ”
Roger smiled: "Yes, this one is still a little rough, not as good as the one I sent the day before yesterday." ”
Zhan Huai said: "I have seen this food box, the food is still hot after a few hours in it, it is the first time I have seen such a wonderful object, did Dr. Luo learn it from Westerners?" ”
Roger was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Zhanhuai to think that he learned it from Westerners, but he didn't deny it, and said: "In Guangdong, there are often Westerners, and some of their things are really exquisite. ”
Zhanhuai said: "I have been to Guangdong, and I have also seen red-haired people from the West, and I also have a few of their things at home, but most of them are small things, which are okay as toys, and nothing else, but I heard that clairvoyance is also derived from the West, and that is an extremely powerful thing." ”
Roger laughed, "Clairvoyance? I heard that this is a forbidden thing, where did Yang Gongzi see it? ”
Zhan Huai laughed, he forgot that clairvoyance is a forbidden thing, Zhan's family has a water army, clairvoyance is a necessary thing, he was still five or six years old, he climbed the tree with clairvoyance all day long and looked around.
He said: "The country people, I really don't know that this is a forbidden thing, I once saw it in an antique shop, and I thought it was very interesting. ”
Roger said: "It's okay, Yang Gongzi doesn't have to be humble, if you can stay in the capital for a few more days, I can make one for you." ”
Zhan Huai Daqi: "Doctor Luo still does clairvoyance?" Aren't you a doctor? How can you be more capable than those people in the Ministry of Works? ”
As far as he knew, the people in the Ministry of Industry could not make clairvoyants, and the clairmiles used by the Zhan family were obtained at great expense, and some of them were even captured from pirates and widows.
Roger said: "The principle of clairvoyance is very simple, as long as the materials are found, it is not difficult to do, just like this thermal food box, it is a very simple thing." ”
"Insulated food boxes? That's a good name. Zhan Huai said.
It suddenly occurred to him that wouldn't it save a lot of time if he had more of these insulated food boxes when he was marching and fighting.
He thought that this idea could be considered, but he didn't know that this Roger Ken would not tell him how to make it.
"In that case, let's ask Dr. Luo to make me a clairvoyant, I still have to stay in the capital for a few days, no hurry."
