Chapter Fifty-Eight: Intentions

Looking at his daughter, who has grown in height in the past two months, her complexion is more ruddy than before, and her two dark eyes are as radiant as black stones, Xia Zhengqian's feelings are very complicated.

He glanced at Shu Shi and Xia Qi who were following the house, and his eyes were still on Xia Jin: "Sister Jin, what do you think Daddy should do?" ”

"Of course not." Xia Jin is naturally authentic.

Just kidding, it took so much thought for her to take Xia Zhengqian out of Xia's house, how could she let him go back again?

"Why?" Xia Zhengqian didn't let her go.

Xia Jin glanced at Xia Zhengqian vigilantly. She felt that Xia Zhengqian seemed to be a little suspicious of her and wanted to test her.

She found a chair and sat down, and said nonchalantly, "Because I don't want to go back." If you want to go back, leave me and my mother and brother here. You don't know what kind of life we are living in Xia Mansion. ”

Xia Zhengqian was stunned by her words.

"Sister Jin, how do you speak?" Shu Shi glanced at Xia Jin, which can be regarded as relieving her husband.

However, her next question full of sorrow still exposed her heart: "Xianggong, do you really want to go back?" ”

Xia Zhengqian can tease his daughter, but he doesn't dare to joke in front of his wife. He shook his head hurriedly and said, "Don't worry, I won't go back." ”

Shu Shi breathed a big sigh of relief.

Xia Qi inquired about Xia Zhengshen and said that because the second uncle was a showman, those villains didn't dare to frame Xia Zhengqian, and his heart was turbulent. From the bottom of my heart, there is an ambition to make a contribution.

At this time, seeing that Xia Zhengqian said that he would not go back, he said happily: "Dad, don't worry. I study hard, and I will definitely pass the exam. At that time, our family will not have to rely on the second uncle, and the villain will not dare to make trouble. ”

Seeing that he said that he wouldn't go back, his wife and children were so happy that Xia Zhengqian sighed in his heart.

To be honest, what Xia Zhengshen said really touched his heart. He is a sincere gentleman. In the belief of being a man, there is "receiving a little bit of people." When the spring reciprocates." So for so many years, no matter how the old lady belittled him and his wife and children, he gritted his teeth and endured it, never mentioning the separation of the family.

He felt that he could be where he is today. It was his mother who gave birth to him and raised him; It was his father who taught him to read and write, and taught him a body of medical skills, which made him make some achievements in medical skills. When he has some ability, he abandons his mother and lives his own life, how is this different from livestock? There are two sentences in "Zengguang Xianwen" "The sheep has the grace of kneeling and the crow has the righteousness of feeding", and he did that. Isn't it better than livestock?

Moreover, as a husband, he has also seen the pain of many women who have difficult births. Those women were also raised by biological parents. I also want to enjoy the prosperous pleasures of this world, but because of childbirth, I lost my life, how can I be willing? The old lady had a grudge against him because of the difficult birth, and he could understand it from the bottom of his heart.

This is also the reason why he does not resent the old lady in his heart for not giving him a good look.

If it weren't for the fact that this time my mother and eldest brother said those sad things and did those heartless things. Nor will he take the initiative to break up; If it weren't for the fact that he felt that he owed too much to his wife and children over the years, he would not have gone back.

Shu Shi has shared a bed with him for more than ten years. How can you not know Xia Zhengqian's mood? She saw her husband sitting there, her mind was complicated, and she said softly: "Sister Jin'er's children's words, Xianggong doesn't have to take it to heart. If you want to go back, let's go back. ”

Xia Jin didn't speak, but Xia Qi couldn't help but open his eyes and shouted: "Mother! ”

In that way, it is obvious that I disagree with Shu's words.

For this pair of steamed bun parents, Xia Jin is convinced.

If it weren't for the strict household registration management of this dynasty, she would not be allowed to live alone in the law, and Xia Zhengqian and Shu's family made her feel the love of her father and mother, and she really didn't want to live with a pedantic person like Xia Zhengqian anymore.

It's so uncomfortable.

She sighed secretly and said, "Dad, have you thought about it, if you practice medicine in the future, you don't know when you will encounter this situation of the Luo family." When the time comes, there won't be another separation, right? ”

Xia Zhengqian was obviously stunned.

Xia Jin said leisurely: "If you practice medicine and cure diseases, no one can guarantee what will happen to you in the future." This time the family was separated, and some people pointed fingers, saying that the grandmother was unfair and that the uncle was treacherous. If you do it again, the second uncle and a few older brothers who are studying are afraid that they will not be able to participate in the imperial examination. ”

Xia Zhengqian's brows furrowed, and he looked thoughtful.

When Xia Qi heard this, his eyes lit up, and he opened his mouth to agree. Xia Jin hurriedly winked at him, and preemptively continued: "If this is the case, it is better to completely divide it this time, so as not to cause anything to affect grandmother and uncle in the future." During the New Year's holidays, we send silver gifts; When there is a problem over there, let's do our best to help. Isn't this better than being tied to a rope and serving it in a pot whenever something happens? ”

These words can be regarded as completely untangling Xia Zhengqian's entanglement.

If he really wants to do this, he doesn't have to feel embarrassed and guilty on both sides.

He raised his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief: "Sister Jin'er's words are very insightful. Okay, let's do it! ”

Xia Qi grinned and quietly gave his sister a thumbs up.

Shu's eyebrows and eyes full of sorrow suddenly relaxed.

Xia Zhengqian glanced at his wife and children and stood up: "I'll go out and borrow some silver taels, and by the way, I'll see which medical hall invites Langzhong." ”

"Dad, sit down first, my daughter has something to say." Xia Jin opened his mouth again.

Xia Zhengqian looked at his daughter, a smile on the corner of his mouth, raised his eyebrows, and sat down: "What do you think?" ”

"When you go to sit in another house, you always send people under the fence and are controlled by others. In my opinion, we might as well open a medical clinic ourselves. ”

As soon as these words came out, the other three were stunned.

Finally reacted, Shu Shi laughed, pointed his finger at Xia Jin's head, and said angrily: "You, you, your father just praised you for speaking insightfully, but it didn't take long for you to talk childish." How can this medical hall be so easy to open? If you want a faΓ§ade, you want to prepare medicine, you want a man, you want an account room, and you have to sit in the hall, which one is not money? If you don't have two or three hundred taels of silver, don't even think about opening a medical center. Even if two or three hundred taels of silver is not enough, when it first opened, it was not famous, and it took a year and a half to boil up the prestige. In the past year and a half, it has to cost one or two hundred taels of silver. ”

When Xia Qi first heard Xia Jin's words, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he thought it was a good idea. Now listening to Shu's analysis, he was suddenly deflated, leaned his body back on the chair, and became listless.

Xia Zhengqian smiled and stood up again: "If there is nothing else to say, I can go." ”

"Oh, don't worry, listen to me." Xia Jin's expression at this time was full of childishness, "Daddy's medical skills are clever, we can not sell medicine, but only prescribe prescriptions." As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and pointed forward, "We don't need to rent a shop, we just need to open the wall of the upside-down seat, build a door face outward, and put two tables inside. The aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, with your medical skills, even if we are not on the street here, as long as we can see a good disease, there is still no shortage of patients. ”

Xia Zhengqian's heart moved, and he slowly sat back, with a pensive face.

Xia Jin continued: "Dad, you have worked in Renhetang for more than ten years, and you also know that among famous Langzhong like Zhao Langzhong, when they see a patient, the money given to them by the hospital is five yuan, and the actual consultation fee charged to the patient is ten yuan. Wouldn't it be twice as good for us to see a doctor by ourselves as to sit in a medical hall? In addition, you don't have to look at the owner's face, be controlled by others, and you don't have to run back and forth every day. What a good thing! ”

Even Shu's eyes lit up when he said this.

Xia Zhengqian shook his head: "People see patients in the hospital, and they can grab medicine after seeing a doctor, which is very convenient." But if you want me to see a doctor, you have to run to this alley, and then go to the pharmacy to grab medicine, tossing and turning, who would want to? Unless it's some incurable disease that others can't see, you want to come and let me give it a try. But incurable diseases are not a good one, and the probability of not being cured is very great. This kind of patient has seen too much, and five out of ten cannot be cured, that is, smashing their own signboards. ”

These words dimmed the light in Shu's eyes.

"Dad, what if we charge eight cents?" Xia Qi interjected, "If you don't charge eight wen, even if you only collect five wen, we won't lose anything, at least you don't have to look at people's faces, and you don't have to come back and run around so hard." ”

"That's not it." Shu Shi approvingly.

Xia Zhengqian frowned slightly, thinking about this possibility.

Xia Jin raised his eyebrows: "Dad, if you do what I say, not only can you charge ten yuan for a consultation, but you can also have an extra income." ”

"Oh?" These words surprised the other three people present.

"What's the solution? Sister, say it quickly. Xia Qi said excitedly.

During this time, he was hit hard by Xia Jin. However, the more he was hit, the more convinced he became of his sister's various abilities. And he knew that his sister was not such a talker. She said that if there is a way, there must be a way!

Compared with Xia Qi, Xia Zhengqian's trust is far behind. He looked at his daughter with a smile and said in a conniving tone: "Tell me, what's the best way?" ”

"We don't have the money to shop medicine, but we can work with people. As long as you go to the pharmacy you know well, rent him a room for the store that has been cleaned up, and let him spread a part of the medicine here to sell. The prescriptions you prescribe here, all go to him to pick up the medicine, you see if the owners of those pharmacies agree. Xia Jin said.

Now it was not only Xia Qi, but also Xia Zhengqian's eyes lit up.

Shu's brain was slow, and after thinking about it, he understood, and couldn't help but slap his face: "Good idea." She said excitedly to Xia Zhengqian, "Xianggong, this method that Sister Jin said not only allows your patients not to toss, but also the door we built can also be rented out." Even if you rent a hundred wen a month, that's money, enough to pay the monthly money of several people. ”
