Chapter 139: Opening Dao Xi
The next day, early in the morning, the sky was beginning to white.
At this time, the old oak laneway is still as quiet as ever, but the gate of the yellow house in the center of the complicated laneway has been quietly opened.
The vermilion gate, the low threshold, and the wooden frame above it, all the corners and corners were as fine as rain, and even the old-fashioned copper lock was polished and polished, and it was evident that it had been re-oiled and as bright as new.
Stepping into the gate, the first thing that jumps into your eye is the neat courtyard, and a road completely paved with square bluestone slabs, which leads directly to the front of the front hall, which is refreshing and clean, and looks quite pleasing to the eye.
Unlike the newly renovated environment outside, the atmosphere in the antechamber, which has also been transformed into a medical hall, is a little heavy and oppressive.
Mainly because there were three people here, but they couldn't hear a single word movement.
Ye Xi sat in the center of the hall, on a wooden chair behind a long table, which was where the senior doctor of the general medical hall sit. The figure leaned back slightly, sticking to the back of the wooden chair in a most relaxed and comfortable posture, turning over the hand medicine, staring at it, occasionally picking up a small ceramic pot on the side, taking a sip, very leisurely.
In front of the neatly arranged wooden medicine cabinet on the side, Huang Lao opened the small drawers with the names of the herbs written on them one by one, pinched them up from time to time and put them in front of his nose to sniff lightly, probably checking to confirm the quality of the herbs and whether there were any misplacements.
As for Guo Li, she held a rag, as long as it was all the teacups, tables, chairs and other things that came into her field of vision, she didn't let go of them and wiped them one by one. Although the latter's things were clean enough, her expression was still persistent and serious, like a swordsman wiping her beloved sword.
The three of them, either leisurely or busy, were busy with their own work, but they consciously or unconsciously tacitly agreed to keep this place as quiet as possible.
Well, if you look at it from another angle, maybe it's not called depression, but calmness!
That's right, today is the day when the clinic officially opens for business. When doing business, they naturally want to make a good fortune, so it is very meaningful whether this business is good or not.
And in this case, the three people in the hall are still so calm and composed, at least on the surface, they naturally deserve a calm evaluation.
Of course, this is also because those who can't hold their breath have been driven outside, such as the two bald people, who are wandering back and forth at the entrances of various lanes, like ants on a hot pot, anxiously waiting for the customers and patients who come by themselves.
As the sun rises in the east, the alleyway outside is no longer quiet.
Finally, after the tables and chairs in the hall were wiped back and forth at least three times, the peace in the medical hall was instantly broken.
Hearty laughter, "Haha, Huang Lao, Xiao Ye Divine Doctor, my Lao Ye congratulates you on the arrival of your new medical hall, why don't you come out to greet you soon?"
Lao Ye, that is, the old man of the family who was cured of rheumatism and cold legs by Ye Xi before, he is also a resident of the old oak lane, and he is a neighbor.
"This old Ye ......" Looking at the surprised gazes cast by Ye Xi and Guoli, Huang Lao shook his head and smiled, "When I went out to enjoy the cool two days ago, I casually mentioned the matter of the medical hall to him, but I didn't expect him to remember it." ”
That is, to open the door to do business, the process of opening a business is inevitable. But of course, the person in charge of this matter will not be Ye Xi, who has just arrived and has black eyes, so he doesn't know who will come to congratulate him today. But I don't think it's too much, after all, the location of this medical hall is really remote, and it is also a routine that the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys.
But having said that, now that everyone is here, and they want to congratulate them by name, Ye Xi and the others naturally have no reason not to accept them. Guoli was the first to jump out of the door with a fire fold, and after a while, there was a crackling sound in the courtyard.
This is certainly not a firecracker, and there is no gunpowder in this era. It is an ancient firecracker, which is to burn the bamboo with fire to make it burst and make a sound, which sounds similar to a firecracker, but the momentum is a little bit worse.
Huang Lao and Ye Xi accompanied Ye Lao, talking about the scene, talking and laughing and walking into the hall, the latter was also carrying a gift wrapped in red silk cloth, looking full of sincerity.
With movement, it will attract attention, and soon there will be crowds of people gathering outside the door one after another.
They are all old neighbors, and after asking each other, the opening of the hospital can't be hidden. Soon, there were neighbors from the neighborhood who came to say goodbye, and the gifts in their hands were also strange, including live chickens and ducks, which were obviously prepared in a hurry.
I have to say that Huang Lao's reputation in this area is quite good, although he has long been closed and no medical treatment, but when his neighbors encounter minor illnesses such as headaches and fevers, he will naturally not abide by the rules and stand by.
There are more and more people, and the firecrackers are constantly ringing, and at a glance there are familiar faces, all residents in the old oak laneway.
But Ye Xi was very satisfied with this, after all, no matter what, at least the opening momentum was lively, wasn't it?
But soon Ye Xi realized that something was wrong, because at some point, there was a crisp sound of horses' hooves outside the door, and one carriage after another kept coming here, and they all stopped and gathered outside the door.
"What's the situation?" Ye Xi subconsciously frowned, and there was a faint anger brewing in his heart.
Cutting off people's wealth is killing their parents, not to mention anything else, if anyone dares to come here to make trouble today, even if Ye Xi violates the Hind Dao Convention, he will definitely teach the comer a profound lesson!
"Hehe, Doctor Ye doesn't need to be nervous. Gently pressing Ye Xi's shoulder, Huang Lao looked at the endless stream of carriages gathering outside the door, and smiled, his expression seemed to be a little complicated, "They are here to congratulate our medical hall." ”
Congratulations?
Ye Xi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and at this moment, the loud singing of promises outside the door suddenly sounded
"Dongcheng Lin's Restaurant came to congratulate and congratulate Mr. Huang on the prosperous business and full of gold and jade. ”
"Lord Song of Beicheng Song sent people to congratulate him, wishing Old Man Huang good health and a long life. ”
"The ...... of the single lady of the single family in Beicheng"
"Xicheng Rongsheng Business Group ......"
......
The sound of singing promises came and went, like gongs and drums sounding in unison, and in just a few breaths, before the onlookers had time to hear clearly, the names of more than ten characters with great origins slipped by.
And this is obviously not over yet, listening to the sound of hurried horses' hooves still ringing from time to time in the distance, it seems that this opening ceremony has just begun......
What the hell is this? The aroma of good wine is not afraid of deep alleys?
Ye Xi was completely stunned, and it took a long time for Huang Lao to subconsciously step forward to greet him, Fang Cai came back to his senses, took a deep breath, looked at Huang Lao who looked calm beside him, and said with a slightly wry smile: "Such a big formation...... Huang Lao, I think I need an explanation......"
............ (To be continued.) )
