In June in Ren County, the climate is dry, the rain did not fall last month, the weather also warmed up quickly, the thick cotton robes have long been unwearable, people have changed into thin robes, skirts, and a cool breeze blows on the street.

The people of 'Yonghetang' are no exception.

The day before, the brand-new satin clothes were finally made and distributed.

Early in the morning, Xiao Yueyue and a group of children such as Goudan happily put on new clothes made of silk, dressed up cleanly and beautifully, and happily went to class and played, but they were very careful not to stain the new clothes. The women also changed into floral satin dresses, like noble ladies. Zhao and Zhao's mother also received a set, and they were uncomfortable at first wearing it, and they couldn't take a step in the yard, but they got used to it after a while.

However, Zhao Lanlan said: "The second aunt is better-looking." ”

These words made Xu Qing overjoyed, and he also praised Zhao Lanlan. Women always like to be a little prettier, a little younger, and like compliments from others. Xu Qing changed into a dark red floral long skirt, the upper body is more close-fitting, the waist is tied, the skirt is dragged like a fluffy flower, wearing beaded flowers and hostas, wearing a snow pearl necklace on the snow-white jade neck, a pair of snow-white pearl stud earrings, long hair shawl, beautiful as a flower.

She was originally from a beautiful background and has an outstanding temperament, and now she is worthy of her name.

Even when Zhang Weidong saw her image, he was also amazed.

However, Zhang Weidong is not bad, he was forced by Xu Qing to change his image, a satin brown gold-patterned robe, a black bowler hat to tie his hair, a pair of white cuffs to show self-cleanliness, and a sachet tied around his waist, which was sewn by Xu Qing himself, and some mosquito repellent herbs were placed in it.

Zhao Gongjian complimented: "The master should have dressed like this a long time ago." There is momentum, there is identity. As rich as landlords and outsiders!"

Zhang Weidong said angrily: "Master, I'm so old?

Graceful?

Zhao Erbao and a few other illiterate people listened, their eyes full of confusion. What does it mean?

This reaction made Zhang Weidong unhappy, and he was not interested in explaining, so he went to the medicine hall after breakfast. Because of this, Zhao Erbao and others did not have the treatment of folding silk and satin new clothes. Of course, this is a joke. Xu Qing didn't plan to have everyone in one at all, but everyone was very happy.

After breakfast, a table was set up in the courtyard with a dark satin on it, and I don't know what it meant.

Mrs. Zhang sat down. Then he took out the account book and opened it, on which there were detailed rules for income and expenditure, and everyone was illiterate, but they also knew that this was going to be paid monthly. The finances of the Zhang family are controlled by Xu Qing, and Zhang Weidong doesn't care about these and is not in the courtyard.

Zhao Erbao, Zhao Tiedan, Zhao Bow and Arrow, Zhao Falcon, Zhao Hound Dog, and Mr. Zhao of the private school were all there, while Zhao Mu, Zhao Shi, and Zhao Lanlan were watching the excitement from the sidelines.

"It's been less than a month since the Zhang family moved to Ren County, but the lord agreed, and everyone paid the monthly money on a full-term basis!" Xu Qing picked up his wife's shelf. I explained it first.

People don't have any opinions, and that's a good thing

"Zhao Erbao, 2 silver coins per month, because there were many wounded soldiers last month. If it is a special month, an additional reward of 2 silver coins will be awarded, totaling 4 silver coins. Brother Zhao, come and get the money!" Xu Qing read as he looked at the account book.

"Thank you, brother and sister. However, is this too much?" Zhao Erbao scratched his head. Said hesitantly. Now their family's food and accommodation are free, and there are a lot of benefits, and there is so much money to take, which makes him feel embarrassed.

Xu Qing smiled and said, "Last month was a special month, so there are more rewards." ”

"Brother Zhang said that?"

"yes!"

"Okay, I'll take it!"

Zhao Erbao stepped forward to receive the moon money, hehe smiled, the 4 silver coins in his hand are so dazzling and precious. The rest can't wait. Zhao and Zhao Lanlan were also happy to close their mouths.

It's the first time that everyone has received monthly money like this, and it feels fresh, although it is not so formal, but it looks like it.

"Zhao Tiedan, 2 silver coins per month, 2 silver coins will also be rewarded, a total of 4 silver coins, Brother Tiedan-"

"Thank you, ma'am—"

"Zhao bow and arrow, 2 silver coins per month, an additional reward of 2 silver coins, a total of 4 silver coins. Big Brother Bow & Arrow—"

"Thank you, ma'am!"

It can be seen that the three of them are treated equally. However, in terms of relationship and status, Zhao Erbao's family is much closer to Zhang Weidong than others. Although Xu Qing respected the two, he didn't ask the two to call her brother and sister like Zhao Erbao, and the difference came out. But no one felt that it was inappropriate, Zhang Weidong was rescued by Zhao Erbao's family when he was injured, and everyone gradually knew, so others couldn't compare

"Zhao Falcon, 1 silver coin per month, an additional reward of 2 silver coins, a total of 3 silver coins!"

"Zhao Hunting Dog, 1 silver coin per month, an additional reward of 2 silver coins, a total of 3 silver coins!"

The monthly money of the two brothers is less than that of the three elders, but they have no complaints, and they are happy to come forward with change. In the last month, they spent most of their time practicing martial arts, watching the concierge and the yard. And the monthly money set at the beginning was like this, they were still young, and Zhang Weidong's idea was to let them practice martial arts diligently.

"The master said, let you continue to practice martial arts diligently, don't let him down!"

"Thank you, ma'am!"

"We will!"

The two brothers were thrilled and felt full of energy.

"Madam, don't worry, if they dare not practice martial arts diligently, I will break their legs!" Zhao Gongjian said.

Zhao Gongjian was also very relieved, knowing that Zhang Weidong was focusing on cultivating his two sons. To become a warrior, the younger the better, the more malleable, and the higher the achievements in the future. The two sons have more potential than the three elders in this regard.

The two brothers scratched their heads and smirked, and said in their hearts, fools can't practice martial arts well. After insisting on practicing diligently during this period of time, the two of them have long known the benefits of martial arts, their strength has increased greatly, their skills are brisk, and there are a lot of benefits.

Xu Qing nodded with a smile.

"Mr. Zhao, after the month, according to 2 silver coins, an additional reward of 2 silver coins, a total of 4 silver coins, in addition, a horse of flower satin, the lord said, the children read and write, I hope Mr. Zhao will pay more attention, as long as the children learn well, the Zhang family will not treat Mr. Zhao badly!"

Mr. Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then became excited: "The old man must do his best, Mrs. and the owner can rest assured!"

Originally, it was agreed to eat in a package. The monthly wage is 1 silver coin, and now the monthly salary is doubled. There is also a reward equivalent to the monthly salary, Mr. Zhao is too satisfied. It's hard to find such a good thing. He was also secretly determined to teach these children well. With an income of 4 silver coins per month, it is an upper middle income among private school teachers, and it is definitely not a problem to support a family

Just when everyone thought it was over and was ready to disperse, Xu Qing read the account book again.

"Aunt Zhao, 1 silver coin per month, 1 silver coin in total!"

Mother Zhao was stunned, and everyone was also stunned.

"Girl. Did you mispronounce it?" Zhao Mu said hurriedly.

Xu Qing smiled and said: "Aunt Zhao, don't worry, the master said, Aunt Zhao has to work hard to take care of the children in the house, and she will have to get the monthly salary in the future, which has helped everyone a lot." ”

Mother Zhao said excitedly: "How can this make the old woman eat the house, live in the house, wear the house, and be blind." Dr. Zhang gave a medical treatment and then took the money, which is not appropriate and cannot be taken. This is ungrateful!"

Xu Qing persuaded him, but Zhao's mother was still insisting, and finally brought out Zhang Weidong to solve it. In the future, Zhao's mother will have to take care of the children.

"Zhao's, 1 silver coin per month. An additional reward of 1 silver coin, 2 credits. Sister-in-law—"

"Brother and sister, I have a share too?"

"Of course, not only the sister-in-law has a monthly salary, but Lanlan also has it!"

Zhao immediately happily stepped forward to receive the money. She and Zhao Lanlan mainly help Xu Qing cook in the stove, the Zhang family is small, the staff is uneven, and they are not outsiders, Xu Qing also cooks.

"Zhao Lanlan, 1 silver coin in the month, an additional reward of 1 silver coin, 2 silver coins in total, Lan Lan-"

"Thank you, second aunt!" Zhao Lanlan smiled sweetly, but couldn't suppress her excitement.

She was still a child in the eyes of many people, but she got the monthly money for the first time, and her face was flushed with excitement.

Xu Qing smiled and said: "Your second uncle can say, you can't fall behind in martial arts and literacy, otherwise it will be gone next month!"

"Got it!"

The unique scene of distributing monthly money was dissolved, and everyone was in a good mood and went to work, full of confidence in the future. For example, Zhao Erbao's family, when they migrated with Zhang Weidong, they were still a little dazed, but now in addition to food and housing, the family also earns 8 silver coins a month, and there will be monthly money every month in the future, which is an unimaginable good day.

There are also Zhao Gongjian father and son, last month's monthly money of 10 silver coins, they didn't know how to spend it, and finally decided to save it for the brothers to marry their daughters-in-law in the future. And Zhao Tiedan's mother and son 5 silver coins, although less than the other two, they are very satisfied.

With these high incomes, they can spend their own time and buy something they like.

But for the Zhang family, these expenses are only trivial.

In May, the income of 'Yonghetang' was very high, deducting eight expensive medicinal herbs, and about 10 gold coins. And everyone's monthly money is 27 silver coins, and living expenses are 50 silver coins, a total of 77 silver coins are spent, and there is a lot left.

"Well, I only gained a foothold in Ren County last month, and many families have to buy them, and there are more additional rewards, and the expenses are a little bigger, and I should be able to reduce twenty or thirty silver coins in June-"

Xu Qing was in a good mood, carefully put away the account book, and went back to the house to lock it. She likes this feeling of being in charge, and she likes this day, as if she has returned to when she was a girl, which is the way Mrs. Zhang should live. If you want to press the name, this is also called 'petty bourgeoisie', and Zhang Weidong will definitely make fun of her, calling her a 'petty wealth fan'

In Yonghetang, a carriage with a carriage was parked outside, guarded by a subordinate.

In the medicine hall, there was a male patient waiting, forty or fifty years old, dressed in silk and satin, looking rich, and there was a subordinate standing with his hands hanging down next to him. However, the patient's face was abnormal.

This person is a wealthy businessman in Ren County, surnamed Li, and he also donated an extra-staff identity, and came over early in the morning. Zhang Weidong finished his diagnosis just now and is prescribing medicine.

"Doctor Zhang, is my problem serious, can it be cured?" asked Li Yuanwai.

"Li Yuanwai should have gone to the Seven Great Pharmacy to see it, right?"

"This—"

"Don't be embarrassed, since Yonghetang dares to accept your money, it will completely cure your illness, rest assured!" Zhang Weidong said.

Li Yuanwai said bitterly: "Don't hide it from Dr. Zhang, I have been to all seven pharmacies, but it didn't work, and I was about to give up in the past two years." ”

Zhang Weidong listened, and after a while, a bunch of small medicine bags were prepared, and they were mouthed one by one, and they were all powdered and mixed evenly. He didn't weigh it, he grabbed the medicine directly with his hands, and it was exactly the same.

Seeing this, Li Yuanwai praised again: "Dr. Zhang's medicine skills are amazing! Why don't you hire a medicine boy?"

Zhang Weidong smiled: "Forget it, there are very few patients in Yonghetang, and I am enough for one person." ”

Li Yuanwai suddenly laughed and said: "As long as Dr. Zhang's medical skills are excellent, are you still afraid that you won't be able to do business?" Dr. Zhang is humble!"

Zhang Weidong didn't take it seriously, the other party was complimenting, and it was just the opening of the second customer.

"Li Yuanwai should remember that this medicine is taken for fifteen days, two packs a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, swallowed with warm water when taking it, and other medicines and tonics must be stopped, and intercourse must be stopped. Fifteen days later, the medicine will be eliminated, but in the future, you need some taboos, and you can't overindulge in it, just once every three days, go back and take care of your health, and then I will prescribe some warm medicine back to make it into a medicinal diet. Zhang Weidong advised.

"Thank you Dr. Zhang, if you can really be cured, you will be given another gift!" Li Yuanwai happily took a bag of medicine, asked his subordinates to put it away, and thanked him.

Zhang Weidong nodded and said with a smile: "As long as you take the medicine according to the prescription, Li Yuanwai will definitely get his wish in half a month!"

"Then borrow Dr. Zhang's auspicious words, how much is it?"

"1 silver for diagnosis, 5 silver per dose, 151 silver coins for sincerity!"

151 silver coins are 1 gold coin and 51 silver coins, and Li Yuanwai didn't frown when he took out the money. Zhang Weidong smiled and collected the money and sent the guests to the door.

"Let's go!"

"Doctor Zhang, stay!"

Sending Li Yuan away, Zhang Weidong regained his indifference, returned to the table and sat down to drink tea.

Zhao Gongji, who was fighting on the side, admired it and sighed: "Master, if a patient comes to the door every day, then it will be sent!"

2 gold coins were credited in three days, and if this was said, it would make the eyes of the people in the Seven Great Medicine Halls so red that they vomited blood. However, whoever makes Zhang Weidong's diagnosis accurate and the miraculous effect of his medication is better than the doctors of the seven major pharmacies. This even Zhao Bow and Arrow is full of confidence.

When Zhang Weidong heard this, he struck: "It's beautiful to think!"

"His illness is a serious illness, there are not many people who can afford to spend a lot of money on treatment, Yonghetang is newly opened, the reputation is not good, the trust is not enough, and it is impossible for every patient to spend so much money. ”

Zhao bowed and said, "Didn't Mrs. County Lieutenant also say that the master's medical skills are excellent, how could no one want to come?"

Two days ago, Zheng County's lieutenant brought his wife to see a doctor, Zhang Weidong after the diagnosis, prescribed ten days of medicine, and there was no need to adjust, a total of 30 doses, three times a day, 2 silver coins per dose, 61 silver coins, no discount. At that time, County Lieutenant Zheng was a little displeased, and felt that 'Yonghetang' was really too dark, but his wife was present, and he couldn't turn his face on the spot. As a result, only a day later, the husband and wife came to thank them and left a lot of gifts.

Obviously, the medicine of 'Yonghetang' has taken effect, and it has only been taken for a day and a half, and the effect is very powerful.

The fact that the wife of the county lieutenant Zheng saw a doctor was a good advertisement. No, as soon as the door opened today, Li Yuanwai came to the door.

Zhang Weidong shook his head and said: "There is more than one medicine hall, if it can be treated cheaply, who is willing to spend more than ten times or dozens of times the cost?"

Sure enough, there are many rich people who are willing to spend a lot of money to see a doctor, but very few trust 'Yonghetang'. After Li Yuanwai, no patients came to the door for several days. It is estimated that Li Yuanwai's visit was also Sima as a live horse doctor, so he had to do it as a last resort.

The road to gold in 'Yonghetang' has to be boiled slowly. (To be continued.) )
