Chapter Twenty-Three: The Same Moonlight
Sitting in the car, thinking about the one who Fuji Zijing reported at the gate of the palace just now, if he had known that his sister had returned to Kyoto in advance, where would he care about the princess and concubine, there was no sound of thunder in the imperial study, and he had already rushed to the bookstore.
Three months ago, he received a letter from Ruoruo from Northern Qi, knowing that she could finally leave Qingshan and return to her hometown, Fan Xian was naturally happy in his heart, and according to the instructions in his sister's letter, he asked Wan'er to carefully select a good location for her sister in Kyoto.
Unexpectedly, Wan'er picked and chosen, and finally picked opposite the Lanbo Bookstore, which was not far from Taixue. Fan Xian thought to himself that this was not bad, and the three brothers and sisters were also neighbors on the street, but he didn't expect Ruoruo to return earlier than the letter said, and according to Fuji Zijing, this girl only stayed in the house for a short time, so she rushed to the location of the medical hall with great interest.
In the past two years, Fan Ruoruo has presided over all the miscellaneous affairs on Qingshan as a closed disciple of Master Kuhe, she is a Nanqing person, and she is Fan Xian's younger sister, so although she has the tacit consent of the Northern Qi royal family and the support of Senior Brother Wolf Tao, it is still a little hard.
In addition to presiding over the mountain gate, Fan Ruoruo often goes down the mountain to treat the poor people of Northern Qi, she charges cheaply, and her medical skills are extremely smart, plus her name is big, it didn't take long for the entire Northern Qi to know that inside the Tianyi Gate, there was a kind-hearted and compassionate medical woman.
This talented woman in Kyoto at that time, after being taught by her brother for a long time, finally found her goal in life, once she found it, she became extremely persistent, otherwise she would not return to Kyoto, not stay at home, but to keep an eye on the progress of the hospital.
Fan Xian rubbed his eyebrows with some curiosity. Secretly wondering whether his sister has become Hua Bian Que or Fenghua? You must know that this was the problem he was most worried about back then.
......
......
Today's Dongchuan Road is crowded. It's very lively. It's obviously not a festival date, but there are countless people who watch the excitement, and people who don't know the inside story are afraid that they will think that there is a juggling team performing inside. Dongchuan Road is close to Taixue, and these people come to see the lively people. Most of them are young students from Taixueli. They stood on tiptoe. He craned his neck and looked in. I hope to take a look at what Miss Fan, who was famous in Kyoto back then, was born like.
There are talented people from generation to generation. Four or five years have passed, and a famous genius in Kyoto, He Zongwei, has entered the court as an official. is a smash hit, but the other Hou Jichang is far away in Jiaozhou and is about to be forgotten. As for the most famous young ladies in Kyoto, Ye Linger avoided Qingzhou, and Lin Waner married a wife. It can no longer be a topic on people's tea tables. Now it is a red place in the gossip circle. It is the barbarism of Miss Wang, the cowardice of Miss He, and the arrogance of several distant relatives of the royal family in Taixue.
In Fan Xian's plagiarized comment: It's really not as good as the generation.
But Fan Ruoruo is an exception. She was famous for her poetry in Kyoto. Later, it was too big to be blue-eyed, and he worshiped in the bitter lotus gate. She has gained an excellent reputation in Northern Qi, how can the people of her hometown forget? At noon today, she made an appearance in the medical center. was recognized by a teacher in Taixue. One to ten, ten to hundred. It has become the most sensational news in Kyoto today.
Fan Xian lifted the curtain of the car window. Frowning, he looked at the young scholars blocking the door of his bookstore and the entrance of the medical hall without a signboard with some annoyance. Thinking that these people were inevitably too Meng Lang, his face was a little displeased.
Look at his expression. Mu Feng'er said in a low voice: "The subordinates will drive these people away immediately." β
Fan Xian was noncommittal, and Fuji Zijing said softly: "I'll go and clear the field." Fan Xian nodded.
Over the years, he has managed to maintain his status as a clear stream in the minds of scholars, and has successfully washed away the dark colors of many supervision courtyards, how can he be willing to let Mu Feng'er be corrupted. I don't know what Fuji Zijing said after getting out of the car, and the pedestrians and scholars who were blocking Dongchuan Road suddenly dispersed. Vacate a large area at the corner of the street. It was only when the men passed by the black carriage that they saluted the carriage with great respect, and then quietly retreated.
It seems that these people know the identity of the people in the carriage. Naturally, he didn't dare to slack off, especially those scholars who already regarded Fan Xian as an idol, and Fan Xian was now also a professor in Taixue, where would he dare to stay any longer - let the scholars break their eyebrows and bend their waists, proving that Fan Xian is not just as simple as a powerful person.
......
......
Dongchuan Road quieted down, Fan Xian got out of the carriage, suppressed the excitement in his heart, smiled and walked into the local medical hall opposite the bookstore, and didn't have time to check how Wan'er had renovated this place, so he glanced directly into it, but he didn't look at Ruoruo's face, only looked at the brocade that looked a little thin, and the waist was slightly thin.
Fan Ruoruo didn't notice the changes outside the medical hall at all, she had already gotten rid of her trance, and was squatting in the inner room to sort out those medicinal materials, she also brought back some rare precious medicines from Qingshan in Northern Qi, and was thinking about how to store them at this time.
Listening to the footsteps behind him, Fan Ruoruo didn't get up, and said directly: "The door hasn't been opened yet, if it's not an emergency, please come back in two days." β
Listening to this voice, Fan Xian was happy, and coupled with the heart of the local healer contained in this sentence, he couldn't help but laugh with satisfaction, and said behind her: "If you really want to be sick, where can I wait for you to come back for treatment, could it be that my own local medical skills are poor?"
Hearing this familiar and somewhat unfamiliar voice, Fan Ruoruo's body was slightly
immediately regained his calm, stood up, turned his head with Fan Xian on his back, bowed down, and said, "Brother is here." β
Although she deliberately suppressed her emotions, the eyebrows on the girl's face, the clump in her eyes, and the curvature of the corners of her lips all showed the joy in her heart.
Looking at the joy on Ruoruo's sister's face, Fan Xian's heart was sad for no reason, I don't know why, inexplicable. He looked at his sister in a daze, looked at this familiar face that he hadn't seen for a few years, and looked at the familiar ice and snow in his eyebrows, which turned into a faint glow in Sanchun in front of him, and sighed softly.
Then he stepped forward and gently touched his sister's head.
Ruoruo bowed his head slightly, and habitually turned to the side.
Just like in the spring of the fourth year of Qingli, when Fan Xian came to Kyoto for the first time and entered the Sinan Bo Mansion, the two brothers and sisters who had been separated for a long time. All it takes is a few words, a small gesture, to dispel some of the strangeness caused by time, and to return to the situation between the active monkey and the sick little monkey many years ago, back to those days and the earth. The words of the goose are only in words.
Fan Xian looked for a box and sat down, looked at his sister who was still busy, and said, "Why did you arrive so early?"
"Didn't my brother come back early?" Fan Ruoruo responded with a smile, raised his arm and brushed his sweaty sideburns: "There was no delay on the road, I arrived a few days early." β
"Thousands of miles south, not to mention a good rest at home for two days, the things in this hospital are naturally arranged by your sister-in-law, you just have to ask for a consultation. Don't bother with that. β
Fan Xian glanced at her disapprovingly, and found that although her sister was still so thin, her spirit seemed much better, and perhaps it was because she had often practiced medicine in the countryside in the past two years, and her complexion was also darker, even the layer of ice and snow that was common in her eyebrows. It also gradually disappeared.
Although there are frequent correspondence exchanges, but they are not as thoughtful as taking care of him, Fan Xian has some self-blame in his heart, and he arranged all the arrangements for escaping marriage and leaving the country. looked at my sister and sighed, and I don't know if she has been doing well in the past two years.
"The maid in the house has changed a few times, I don't know anyone, I don't have anyone to talk to, so I sat stupidly in the flower hall for a while. If you think about it, you should come to the bookstore to have a look, and where did you think that the place that my sister-in-law picked was opposite the medical hall. Fan Ruoruo naturally pulled his brother up, lest he sit in the box where he put his own medicine. said: "This medicine makes you sit on the buttocks, how can you use it?"
"Who am I? I'm a poet immortal, if it spreads, I'm afraid that others will pick this box of medicine to buy. Fan Xian told a very cold joke, and then said in surprise: "What about your sister-in-law?"
Fan Shangshu took the Liu family back to Lanzhou to retire, and took away half of the servants in the old mansion, plus Zhuangzi needed manpower, and Yahuan had to be married when she was older, but in a few years, the entire Fan Mansion had become a little strange to Fan Ruoruo.
Fan Xian was extremely sensitive to this, and thought to himself that even the big girl who was sleepy in the fourth haul has now become a county lady, and in a few years, Kyoto has changed too much, so don't let Ruoruo be a little unaccustomed to it.
"My sister-in-law and Sisi took the vine family to the Grange. Fan Ruoruo glanced at him curiously, as if she didn't understand why her brother asked such a stupid question, "I just entered the city with Fujizijing today, of course I didn't meet them." β
But all the big families have their own grange mountain and forest industry outside Kyoto, not to mention the Fan family, Fan Xian often played in these granges in previous years, but he didn't think for a while that the time was in winter, it should be the season to prepare for the end of the year, and now Wan'er and Sisi, who are in charge of the Fan family's industry, are very busy.
He rubbed his eyebrows with a headache and said, "It's a big deal for you to come back, no matter how busy you are, you should wait in the mansion." β
Fan Ruoruo glanced at him, and said angrily: "You and I came back three days early, who can have that magic trick." β
Fan Xian patted his ass and got up, and said with a smile: "I can at least calculate that you should be hungry at this time." β
βββββββI'm a place of leisure, a dividing line of learning, woo la laββββββ
Today's Fan Mansion has already opened up the two houses, and the garden has also been changed, and even the people living inside are not quite the same. Fan Xian is still accustomed to living in the new house with Wan'er Sisi, the old mansion where his father lives is vacant, and there are already servants who have cleaned up Ruoruo's room back then, just like before, Fan Ruoruo followed Fan Xian to take a look, thinking of the more than ten years spent in Kyoto, and his eyes turned red.
Fan Xian is the most tearful character for women, of course, except for the mother-in-law who has died, he quickly took Ruo Ruo to the flower hall, at this time there was no one in the house, the brother and sister sat opposite each other, saluted each other with wine, ate nonsense, and told their respective lives after separation, but also happy. It's just that when it comes to the rebellion in Kyoto, Ruoruo is extremely worried, and when he talks about the loneliness on the green mountains and the eyes of the Northern Qi people, Fan Xian's eyes are a little annoyed.
"How is my brother over there now?" Fan Xian put down his wine glass and asked. Fan Sizhen has always been dealing with the industry in the north, although the two brothers have always exchanged letters and information, but he still habitually asked. From his sister's words, Fan Xian knew that Si Zhe had a hard time in the north, although the Northern Qi royal family did not do anything on the surface, but secretly made some inconspicuous little stumbling blocks.
Fan Xian pondered for a moment and said: "If the jade is not cut, the little emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty will not really turn his face for a while. He was there. β
In the past two years, Fan Sizhen returned to Kyoto twice, and the Spring Festival in the ninth year of Qingli was also spent in Shanzhou. It's just that now the Fan family is forced to be separated from each other, and it is extremely difficult to get together, and every time I think about it. Fan Xian's heart is that the old earth is not happy.
The problem was that His Majesty would never have allowed him to resign at such a tense time, and my father really shouldn't have stayed in Kyoto anymore. It's better to stay in the state to take care of your grandmother than to worry about an unfortunate end.
Fan Ruoruo nodded, and there was no doubt about her brother's words in her heart. Whether it is the younger brother or himself, it is under the arrangement of the elder brother that he really has a life completely different from the children of the ordinary powerful. The most fulfilling kind.
"Let's rest today. Gai Ming'er will speak well again. This old king is not there, and there are many things I want to talk to, but I have nowhere to say. Fan Xian muttered a few words a little inarticulately, venting his rare frustration with the chat partner in this world. In addition to Lin Dabao Wang Qinian. Of course, Uncle Wuxiu and his sister who was too influenced by himself were the most suitable.
Fan Xian even dared to say something rebellious to these four people. The problem is that Dabao is too simple, he can't say it, Wang Qinian ran away, Uncle Wuzhu escaped, and his sister was not there...... But he finally returned.
It's a good feeling. Fan Xian couldn't suppress the joy in his heart, and he didn't know how much wine he drank. Naturally, I refused to take hangover pills. Taking advantage of the wine, he actually fell asleep on the table.
Fan Ruoruo looked at his drunken brother, shook his head helplessly, and ordered his subordinates to carry him back to the room. He personally covered him with the quilt, arranged his long black hair, and carefully removed a few needles from his hairβjust like he had been injured a few years ago before his wedding.
Back in his basement, Fan Ruoruo couldn't help but smile slightly when he looked at the few thin needles shining with all kinds of light in his hand. I thought that my sister-in-law should also know about these poisonous needles. Aren't they afraid of problems when they make out? Or do they have to clean up every night?
She immediately realized that she shouldn't think about it, and secretly blushed. Hurriedly put the thin needle in the box - Fan Xian's last life-saving trick. Originally, the two of them made it with their own hands in the back house, and she naturally knew what to do.
The house is old, and the bedding is new. People are old. The mind is also old. Fan Ruoruo sat quietly at the table, looking out at the garden through the window. Thinking of her brother's previous drunken and happy appearance, she was a little distracted, and from the conversation, she knew that although her brother had been happy in Kyoto in the past few years, there was always an inexplicable pressure, which made it difficult for him to be happy.
She sighed, put on a jacket, and walked out of the room, strolling in the old moonlight in the garden. In the basement behind her, the remnant candlelight was looking for a shadow to tell how bright its dream was, and the moonlight on her body was the same as in previous years, but she was getting more and more flustered.
......
......
But Fan Ruoruo clearly knows that all this is just a vain and no matter whether his mind can be accommodated in this world, the most important thing is that since many years ago, his brother has habitually taken care of himself like a child, and Ji Yue has never had such thoughts in his heart.
She couldn't help but smile helplessly, and secretly thought about opening the hospital as soon as possible, there are still so many poor people in the world who need their own help, why bother to be in this early winter scene, thinking about their own children's family feelings that are difficult to declare.
Once she thought about these matters, the moonlight that sprinkled her delicate face seemed calm. After several years of living in the north, the temperament of this girl's family has changed greatly, and there is no longer that kind of indifference in the calm, but there is a little more calmness that can afford to let go.
ββββββββββββββββ
Not to mention what kind of sensation caused by Miss Fan's return to Beijing, just say that Fan's mansion was a lot more lively, and Lin Wan'er and her entourage rushed back from the grange when they got the news, and their sister-in-law saw each other, and they had some affection, especially when they saw their niece and nephew, Fan Ruoruo was even more happy.
This family is happy, and it is an outlier in the Kyoto mansion, but this atmosphere can't last long, because Fan Ruoruo is in a hurry to open a medical center, and the palace also allows Fan Xian to take Ruoruo into the palace to see the driver.
The affairs of the medical hall were done by themselves, and it only took one day to see the driver, but the young people of the second generation of Fan Mansion could no longer be idle. Fan Ruoruo has studied art in Qingshan for several years, and when she returned to Beijing for the first time, she naturally had many elders and relatives to visit and walk around.
The first stop is undoubtedly Jingwangfu, which has an excellent relationship with Fanfu.
If it is changed to the past, this kind of movement is extremely common, but the problem is that Fan Ruoruo almost became the daughter-in-law of King Jing, but was later sent by Fan Xian to the Kuhe Gate of Northern Qi, King Jing has been remembering this matter for the past two years, and when he saw Fan Xian, he sighed for a long time, and the situation between the two families was a little embarrassing, so Fan Ruoruo knew that he was going to the palace, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
"What's there to be disturbed. Fan Xian looked at his sister's expression, thinking that Hongcheng was suffering from Dingzhou, his heart trembled, and he didn't know whether he had done right or wrong back then, so he reluctantly smiled and said: "During the Chinese New Year, Hongcheng will also return to Beijing, are you going to hide for the rest of your life." β
