Xia Zhengqian saw her serious expression, chuckled in his heart, and pulled back the smile on his face: "What's the matter?" You said. ”

Seeing the expressions of the father and daughter, Shu Shi also became worried, looked at Xia Jin and asked, "You won't get into trouble outside, right?" ”

Xia Jin didn't answer, blinked his eyes and was speaking, Xia Zhengqian stretched out his hand to stop her and said, "Wait." ”

He turned his head and said to Xing Qingsheng: "Qingsheng, why don't you go back first?" ”

Xing Qingsheng has been a master and apprentice with Xia Zhengqian for more than ten years, and he knows the master's temperament best. He didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that it was a family matter and that it was not suitable for outsiders to listen to, so he got up and said, "Master, I'll go around the neighborhood to see if there is a suitable house, and I'll come back after a while." ”

With Xing Qingsheng, Xia Zhengqian was not polite and let him go.

Xing Qing went out on his front foot, but Xia Jin ran out on his back foot, leaving a sentence: "I'll call my sister over." ”

Xia Zhengqian and Shu Shi glanced at each other helplessly and shook their heads.

After a while, Xia Qi was awkwardly pulled over by Xia Jin. When he arrived in the house, seeing that there were no outsiders, he shook off Xia Jin's hand and said extremely angrily: "I said that I would come back after changing my clothes, but you didn't allow it, so you insisted on pulling me out." ”

Xia Zhengqian had just taken a sip of tea, but before he could swallow it, when he heard Xia Qi's words, he "poofed", and all the tea in his mouth squirted out, "cough, cough, cough......" cough was earth-shattering.

Shu Shi was afraid that her son's young heart would be hurt, so she wanted to hold back and pretend not to see it, but when Xia Qi spoke, she couldn't help but laugh "haha".

Xia Qi was wearing a light green skirt. He wore two double buns on his head, beaded flowers, and clip-on earrings modified by Xia Jin on his earlobes. She looks like a sister, but when she speaks like this, the duck male voice in the voice-changing period is dressed as a weak woman, how funny it looks.

Seeing his parents' reaction, Xia Qi's face turned black and complained to Xia Jin: "Look at it, I said change your clothes and come back." He tugged at his pale green trimmed sleeves. I won't change clothes with you next time. ”

Xia Jin also felt funny in her heart, but she could bear it. said to Xia Qi seriously: "Senior Brother Xing is coming over in a while, and I have to take my father to see the house, time is tight, how can I have time to exchange it?" Come. Sit down quickly, and I'll tell you about today's events. ”

Shu Shi hurriedly held back a laugh and said to Xia Qi: "Yes, yes, your sister is right, sit down quickly." ”

Xia Qi saw that his sister's expression was serious, and his father and mother's expressions were also solemn, so he knew that something was really wrong, and sat down busily, no longer noisy.

"Dad, mother, brother. I'm going out to see the house today......" Xia Jin told me about what happened in Renhetang today, 1510.

When Xia Qi heard this, his eyes shining as bright as stars in the sky when he looked at Xia Jin.

"Daddy. My sister's medical skills are really better than yours? He asked.

Xia Zhengqian frowned, thinking about the impact of this incident on all aspects. Hearing this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and nodded: "That's true." Your sister is amazing. Not to mention Luo Gongzi's illness, just today's illness. If you treat your father, you will also prescribe some prescriptions for treating the symptoms like that Tan Langzhong. I don't even think about using anger to promote the rapid onset of the drug's effect. ”

As he spoke, he looked at his daughter, who had grown taller but was still thinner than the average fourteen children, with both relief and distress in his eyes.

It would be a pity for a daughter with such a skilled medical skill to be locked up at home. But is it really good for her to borrow her son's name and make a name for herself outside?

And Shu, who was sitting next to him, was thinking about another question.

She frowned and looked at Xia Jin and asked, "In other words, you cured the matter of Luo Sangongzi and let your uncle know?" And you still got a few dozen taels of silver for the consultation? ”

Xia Jin nodded, took out his purse from his arms, and handed it to Shu: "Mother, this is sixty taels of silver, given by the old lady Xuanping, you take it." ”

Shu Shi took the purse, opened it, and was surprised and delighted: "So many? ”

"Hmm." Xia Jin nodded vigorously, "It's enough for our expenses for a year." ”

Xia Zhengqian looked at the silver ingot in Shu's hand, with mixed feelings.

He was a man, and he was the pillar of the family. But when the family encountered difficulties, he had no choice, and he had to rely on his daughter to make money outside to help the family get through the difficulties.

"Alas, my sister is capable." Xia Qi was also full of unpleasant feelings, "In this family, I am just eating idle food, and I can't do anything." ”

"Nonsense!" Shu Shi glared at him, "If you really think you're useless, just read a good book, and come back after a while for your father and mother to take a show." Let's split up and go through another family, but I will point to you to take the exam to reduce some taxes. If you can do that, you won't be eating for nothing. ”

Hearing this, Xia Qi suddenly changed his frustration just now, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and his fighting spirit was high: "Wait, I will definitely be able to pass the exam." ”

Hearing this, Shu Shi suddenly remembered something and asked: "Xianggong, Sister Jin used Brother Qi'er's name to see a doctor outside, and when Brother Qi goes out in the future, what if someone looks for him to see a doctor?" He can't say he won't, can he? ”

Xia Zhengqian had already thought of this impact. He nodded: "This matter is really difficult to do. ”

The daughter's practice of medicine was for the sake of the family, and both times it was a coincidence, and she was forced to be helpless. Without her, he would have suffered a great calamity and was locked up in prison; And the family is financially constrained, so he can't come up with money to rent a house, so he can only be the only thing left to him by the old lady.

Therefore, if he blames his daughter, he can't say anything.

But this incident has too much negative impact on his son, although it will not affect his participation in the imperial examination, but there will be constant troubles, and I don't know what chaos will happen in the future.

In this matter, Xia Qi is the most innocent.

"Daddy." Xia Qi also figured this out. He looked at Xia Zhengqian's eyes and said seriously: "Don't blame your sister for today's incident." If it weren't for the uncle's repeated persecution, she wouldn't have come out. And today's incident won't have any big impact on me. In the future, when someone asks me to see a doctor, I may find an excuse to delay, and then change my sister to be treated; Or just say I can't cure it.

My sister's medical skills are so good, it would be a pity to lock her up at home. Dad, you have also said before that if you learn your skills, you must benefit the people. My sister learned a lot of skills at a young age, isn't this a gift from God to my sister? If she wants to hide and not see a doctor for others, isn't she ashamed of God's kindness? ”

Xia Zhengqian didn't expect his son to say such a thing.

He patted Xia Qi's shoulder with satisfaction and said, "Son, it's best if you can think like this." You remember that your sister is doing this for the good of the family. If she hadn't done it, your father would still be in prison right now. And if she doesn't get out of the car today to intervene in this matter, your reputation will be even worse. In the future, you must not complain about your sister because of this matter. ”

"Dad, don't worry, no matter how confused I am, I won't be able to tell the difference." Xia Qi nodded seriously.

He turned his head to Xia Jin again and said, "Sister, if you want to go out in the future, just tell me." I always stay at home and read anyway, and I don't like to run around outside. ”

Xia Jin looked at this brother who looked very similar to him, and his heart was full of emotion.

She raised her hand conclusively and promised: "Brother, in the future, I will no longer pat you on the head, nor will I rudely press you to change your clothes." ”

Xia Qi glanced at her arrogantly, and snorted twice in his nose, indicating that he hadn't forgiven her yet.

Xia Jin didn't have time to play with him, so he turned his face to Xia Zhengqian and said solemnly: "Dad, you know now, I not only cured the illness of Luo Sangongzi, but also cured the illness of the old lady Xuanpinghou's daughter. With the favor of these two families, in Linjiang City, who would dare to trouble us? Even the prefect has to give some face. There is really no risk in opening a medical center in the east of the city. ”

She glanced at Xia Qi and said, "Besides, Meng's mother moved three times just to give her son a good study environment." The people who live in the east of the city are either rich or expensive, and my brother stays in this environment for a period of time, and he will no longer be afraid to go out, and he will be a small family. And the reader pays the most attention to connections. You see what poetry meetings the second uncle went to all day long, just to get acquainted and gain some fame. We live in the east of the city, surrounded by people of status and culture, and my brother is good friends with their children, and there is only good and no harm. ”

The latter reason made Xia Zhengqian and his wife quite excited. A pair of children is the flesh of their hearts. As long as it is good for their children, they are willing to do whatever they do.

As a mother, Shu thinks deeper.

Seeing that Xia Qi and Xia Jin are fourteen years old, it's time to discuss marriage. If you live in the east of the city, you may be able to get acquainted with some good people and give your children two good family affairs.

Thinking about it like this, Shu Shi said to Xia Zhengqian: "Xianggong, Sister Jin is right. Otherwise, let's rent the house in the east of the city. ”

"It's not too late for me to take a look." Xia Zhengqian was actually willing, but he hadn't seen the house, so he was always at ease. In the final analysis, I still have some distrust in Xia Jin's ability to do things.

"One more thing, Dad." Xia Jin said again.

"What else?" Xia Zhengqian raised his eyelids and said quietly. He was frightened twice by Xia Jin, and he had learned to be calm at this time.

"Uncle now knows that Luo Sangongzi's illness was cured by me, and he also knows the identity of the old lady Xuanpinghou. With these two favors, I'm worried that he will come to the door in a while, apologize to you, and tell us to move back. ”

Shu Shi looked at her husband worriedly.

Before she moved out, she could barely bear the life she spent in Xia Mansion. But now that a few days have passed, and looking back, she is no longer happy to go back to live that kind of beaten and scolded days.

Xia Zhengshen saw that his son was also looking at him, so he was afraid that if he said that he wanted to move back, he felt a sour feeling in his heart for no reason. (To be continued)
