In the early morning of the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, after I had set up my stall as usual, I was waiting for the money steward, who was holding a vegetable basket containing meat and vegetables, and a crucian carp that was still struggling in his other hand.

He threw four copper plates on my desk: "Li Jianghu, come with two pieces of tofu." ”

"Okay." I wrapped the tofu neatly, gently put it in his basket, and couldn't help asking, "Why did Steward Qian come to buy vegetables in person today?" What about Xianglan? ”

"I'm sick."

"What? Sick? I was taken aback: "Wasn't she okay last night?" ”

Steward Qian said indifferently: "Who knows, maybe there was a cool breeze blowing by the river when the river lantern was released, and the quilt was not covered at night, so it was a cold." ”

I was inexplicably worried: "Are you seriously ill?" ”

She lived in a room with Nuanxin, and heard Nuanxin say that her forehead was hot, and people were confused, so Siyu went to ask for a doctor. You just need to sell your tofu, whether our maid lives or dies and you have to worry about it? Steward Qian didn't want to say anything more, and turned to leave.

What a person! Hey, that's it, how can I deal with a little eunuch.

I comforted myself, but Xianglan's eyes that looked like Wang Jiajia always appeared in my heart, which made the whole person a little uneasy.

Hey, since Siyu went to ask for a doctor, it should be fine, but I don't know which doctor Siyu will go to. Li Huichun's medical skills are good, but ...... Xianglan is a maid, and Siyu is a fine work, if it weren't for Steward Qian's name, Siyu would go to Huichun Hall? Mu Niangzi is kind-hearted, but she is afraid that she loves to sleep during pregnancy, so she hasn't gotten up so early.

Thinking about it like this, I struggled again.

……

An hour later.

"Li Jianghu, you are really early every day." Li Dongsheng walked over from afar, wearing a dark brown short cloth shirt that I almost didn't recognize him.

"East ...... The owner is early. You're ......."

"Xian'er somewhere turned out the clothes for me, so that I could wear them for work when I was in the inn, for fear that I would stain those silk satins." Li Dongsheng stretched out his arms and spun around, seemingly very satisfied with his new outfit.

I glanced at my own clothes and chimed in, "Oh, it's easier to wear a short shirt." ”

"Bring me a bowl of bean curd." Li Dongsheng sat down at the small table.

"Okay." I made a bowl of bean curd: "Didn't the owner have breakfast at home?" ”

"No, Steward Qian said that Xianglan is sick, and I'm tired of the food cooked by Jinxiu and Warm Heart, so it's better to go outside and change the taste." Li Dongsheng took a bite of the bean curd, and looked at the Huang family's pastry shop: "I really didn't expect that the Huang shopkeeper is the owner, Xian'er is still so close to him on weekdays, and I also bought raisins a few times in his shop, and now I think about it, I'm really afraid." ”

"Lord Xiang's goal is not Mu Niangzi, it should be fine." I comforted and asked, "Xianglan's illness is okay?" ”

"Oh, Li Huichun showed her, she has already used medicine. Why, care so much about her? Li Dongsheng smiled evilly: "Have you taken a fancy to that girl?" ”

My heart was empty: "What? ”

Xian'er said, in a few days, choose a good day to marry a few guys in the inn, and marry a few maids in the family. If you have a heart, it is also a matter of passing to add you and Xianglan as a couple. ”

"I ...... I have a fiancée, her name is Wang Jiajia. I said, holding the hand stove that Wang Jiajia gave me, and my heart became sad again.

"Wang Jiajia, oh, I've seen it, how can Xianglan be beautiful."

I was anxious: "Is liking a woman just to show her beauty?" Jiajia and I are childhood sweethearts, although she is not the most beautiful, but she is kind-hearted, she is the person who understands me best. ”

Li Dongsheng showed surprise on his face: "Do you think so too?" Hehe, the so-called 'gentleman sees the same thing', I like to make friends who can talk to me. If nothing else, I think we have a common topic just about getting married. Childhood sweetheart, the person who knows himself best, marrying a wife like this, is really a great fortune in life. ”

I know that Li Dongsheng reminisced about the sweetness with Mu Niangzi, and although he was envious in his heart, he felt deep sadness and regret for Wang Jiajia's departure.

"If it weren't for Mu You, I would be as happy as you." I muttered.

Li Dongsheng had finished eating the bean curd, he put down the two pennies and wiped his mouth: "Can't you put it down?" People cannot be resurrected after death, when will they be retribution?

Li Jianghu, you are Mu You's friend, that is, my friend. There are some words, I said directly: No matter what Mu You does, you are not allowed to hurt him! If the next time I see you want to hit Mu You, or even use a knife against him, don't blame me for being rude to you! ”

I listened to Li Dongsheng's threat, looked at his angry handsome face, and said righteously: "I know that you and Mu You have a deep relationship, but you can't protect him unprincipledly!" If a person does something wrong, he should be punished as he deserves, and as a chaplain, he should lead by example. ”

"You...... Why are you so stubborn? Li Dongsheng got up angrily and looked at me helplessly.

I smiled coldly: "If Mu You kills Mu Niangzi, you can continue to be friends with him, then I will forgive him!" ”

"You ......"

"Boss, you're here? It just so happened that the inn was busy to death, hehe, you are dressed too energetically, are you here to help run the hall today? "Fauber came out just right and stopped our verbal war.

"Well, I'm going to help you. You can't always write every day, and you can exercise by running errands. Li Dongsheng said and accompanied Fu Bo into the inn.

Their business is really good today, and my tofu bean curd is also selling quickly, and soon the box containing the tofu will be empty, and the iron bucket will also see the bottom.

"Mu Qincha, it's really amazing, just to eliminate harm for the people! Choose secret agents, set up the eye of heaven, and Tubo is miserable! Officials, busy with government affairs, paving bridges, building roads and building schools! The people can cut off the gold together, and unite to reach the army! ……”

The sound of nursery rhymes came again, causing passers-by to stop and praise, today there have been three waves of different children, each child is singing happily, and there are various snacks in their hands, obviously someone is behind the control of all this.

Planning to Wenbo and Du Xiuzhen? Su Xiaolu and Liu Jiabao execute?

It must be so!

Use the three teams of Tianyan secret agents to sing praises and virtues, who is this going to see?

Could it be that Xiao Mu is also like me, waiting for someone from the capital for the past two days?

I put away the tofu seller and quickly went to the Huichun Hall. Li Huichun said that the plan was good, but after all, he is Xiao Mu's best friend, I really don't understand, why did he want to kill Xiao Mu to be dismissed? Just because Xiao Mu is in poor health and needs to recuperate?

The front door of the Rejuvenation Hall was full of birds, the screen of the consultation room was also erected to the side, but there were bursts of children's laughter from the medicine cabinet.

I looked over and saw a little girl about a year old sitting on the table in front of the medicine cabinet, holding a rattle in her hand, shaking happily, Li Huichun held her head and said something to her, both of them were full of happy smiles.

"Dr. Li." I called and smiled at the little girl, "Your daughter is so old in a flash?" ”

Li Huichun wiped the corners of the child's mouth: "Just one year old." ”

"It's so cute!" I couldn't help but touch the child's pigtails.

"Her name is Xinyan."

"Oh, Xinyan, good name." I casually boasted, I don't know much about naming, but Li Huichun is a particular person, and his baby daughter's name must have been chosen with great care, and the meaning must be excellent.

I glanced around at the hospital: "Why don't you have a single patient, so you have to take care of the children here?" ”

Li Huichun said to Wai Nunu: "Have you seen the couplet at the door of my medical hall?" ———'I hope that people in the world are free of disease, so why not put medicine on the shelf to produce dust'. Ever since I studied medicine, this is the first thing Master has taught.

In the past few years, I followed Master and Brother in Du's Medical Center, and every winter, there are always endless patients, and it is rare to be so idle this winter. Any idea why? ”

I was stunned: "How do I know this, when people eat whole grains and when they get sick, where can I say accurately." ”

Li Huichun smiled with relief: "This year's winter is as cold as in previous years, but there is a lot of warmth in Xiangzhou, and people's hearts are warm, and when they are happy, they will not be sick." ”

"What do you mean by Dr. Li?"

Li Huichun hugged Xinyan on his lap and continued, "Didn't you pay attention? A few years ago, Xu County sent people door-to-door to check whether the people had materials for the winter, and those who had no money sent charcoal and rice, winter clothes and bedding. The people are well fed and clothed, and there are naturally fewer sick people. ”

The respect in my heart came spontaneously: "Xu County Ling is really a good official who loves the people like a son." ”

Li Huichun smiled faintly and said: "Not only the Xu County Order, but also the entire Xiangzhou, one city and five counties. Because the history of Lei Thorn conveyed the original words of Qin Cha: If a citizen in any county of Xiangzhou starves to death and freezes to death, let the county order of that county accompany the burial! ”

I suddenly understood that Li Huichun's remarks were praising Xiao Mu again, and I couldn't help but smile coldly: "In the end, it is his best friend, I still believe that you can help me invite people from the imperial court." ”

Li Huichun said: "I have promised other people's things, but I will do what I say. You want people to cure Mu You's sins in order to avenge your fiancée. But my purpose is to make him lose his position, that's all.

Xiuzhen has been singing nursery rhymes with Xiang Wenbo for the past few days. Mu Qin sent a wise and martial artist, captured Tubo Xizuo, and led all the officials to make Xiangzhou so prosperous, even if his behavior was inappropriate, the sage would definitely not pursue it too much if he knew it. ”

It turned out that all this was already under Xiao Mu's control, or Li Huichun learned of my intentions and had already helped Xiao Mu think of countermeasures. These people are really unreliable, and the only one they can rely on is themselves.

I sighed softly, and still pretended to be calm and asked, "Are the people from the capital here?" Didn't you say that people would come as soon as the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and today it's sixteen, is there a shadow? ”

"You didn't see that?" Li Huichun asked me rhetorically: "I went to check Xian'er's pulse early this morning, and then went out with Li Dongsheng, I saw that Li Dongsheng even changed into new clothes, wasn't it to go to the inn to be a junior runner and personally welcome the distinguished guests from the capital?" ”
