Zezhou has many rivers, waterways, west out of Zezhou to the east, take the road to Zhongzhou, the landform changes suddenly, it is the mountains and many places are dry, rich in yellow gardenias. Mortals mostly make a living from this cultivation, selling it as dyes or Chinese medicinal materials, and it has a wide range of uses.

Zhongzhou, a mountain grass shed.

"Shopkeeper, a pot of tea!"

Sang Ling pinched the handkerchief and wiped all her head and face, which can be regarded as dissipating a lot of heat and sweat.

Next to her, Su Luo looked at her sloppy appearance and reminded:

"Be careful when wiping it, don't move the fine bandages on your forehead and hands, we haven't seen any medical halls along the way, we don't have these things at hand."

Sang Ling raised her right hand, her sleeve naturally slid down her elbow, and a hand like mutton fat and white jade was exposed, only to see that the wrist and the back of the hand were tightly bandaged with a thin bandage, and a delicate bow was tied on it, and she looked cute and couldn't see the white bone wound below.

When she came out of the house that day, she took the statue of the snake and went to the puppeteer from before. The puppeteer didn't say much, and directly smashed the statue, re-transformed into Kuiyin soil, and mixed it with other elixirs to make a small bottle of medicine.

The bottle was handed to her, and the puppeteer's face was full of impatience:

"Take the things away, once every three days, and your white bone wounds will heal after the medicine is applied."

Sang Ling pinched the bottle, and before she could speak, the puppeteer swept her out of the door like a plague god.

Reflexively lifted the curtain and probed in:

"Puppeteer, didn't you say that there is a ready-made Kuiyin soil in the deep mansion for me to dig with a jar. Why don't you ask if Kuiyin soil becomes a statue, you don't even want that broken jar? ”

The puppeteer didn't bother to pay attention to her, waving his hand to chase away the head as if it were a fly.

"No, no, don't worry, you tell your old man to rest assured, I won't say anything. It's dark, close the door, go to sleep! ”

"What's the old good? Feed! Feed! ”

"Smack——!

The door in front of him was slammed shut, and Sang Ling hurriedly staggered back a few steps before recovering the tip of his nose from under the door.

With the scorching sun above her head and touching her nose, Sang Ling was a little puzzled:

"What's the old good? Did he come to the puppeteer? ”

There was a faint answer in her heart, but she still subconsciously pressed that answer down.

In a trance, he had already walked outside the city, and was hesitating in which direction to go, when suddenly a clear male voice came from the oblique stab.

"Hesitating and wandering, is it lost? It seems that I still need to lead the way, so that I won't lose your stupid hamster. ”

……

"Stupid hamster, it's hot, take a sip of tea."

A clear cup of tea was placed in front of him.

The memory was retracted, and Sang Ling's gaze moved from the shallow water waves in the teacup to the face of the clean young man in front of him, and he was a little troubled:

"Su Luo, are you idle?"

"Salty, not salty, Xuanzhou City's authentic big-leaf tea, the tea is fragrant and sweet."

The boy took a big sip from his teacup, looking like he was relishing.

Sang Ling was powerless to support her head, and if she persuaded Su Luo to leave, she didn't know how many times she had spoken along the way, but this guy was like a stone in a pit, smelly and hard, and he couldn't make sense at all.

The bottom of my heart is irritable, and I feel even hotter under the sun. Fingers together as a fan, fanning indiscriminately to bring a cool breeze.

As soon as the curtain in the tea shed was lifted, the shopkeeper carefully brought out a plate of hot snacks, met Sang Ling's gaze, but nodded apologetically, and went straight to the next table.

"As soon as my mother-in-law made it, Dr. Liu will use some. Yesterday, the child was naughty, and choked on the throat after eating glutinous rice cakes in the middle of the night, if you hadn't come to the rescue late at night, otherwise this single seedling under my knee would be gone. ”

A male voice followed gently:

"Ahem, it is common sense for doctors to treat diseases and save people, needless to say. You have worked hard to open a store, so you don't need this snack. ”

The two excused each other a few more words.

A moment later.

Sang Ling glanced at the shopkeeper who came back empty-handed, looking satisfied, and was curious about the owner of the gentle male voice.

But the man kept his back to them, but he couldn't see clearly. However, hearing that he didn't open his mouth was a cough, he must not be in good health.

Opposite side.

Su Luo looked at her with her hand, looking so hot that she couldn't sit still, and said with some amusement:

"Okay, the mind is naturally cool, and if you calm down, it will naturally be cool."

said so, but he took a fan in his hand to fan her.

The breeze was slow, the tea in the teacup was cold again, and Sang Ling blew the wind from Su Luo's fan, and smothered the tea in one go, so that it was a little cool.

Without the trace of irritability in my heart, I naturally have the heart to look at something else.

Outside the tea shed.

It was almost noon, which happened to be the hottest time of the day. The surrounding people came and went, all of them were mortal villagers carrying farm tools, as if they were returning home from work. It's just that when many people pass by this tea shed, they have to wave their hands to greet this side with an affectionate attitude.

Sang Ling curiously went to look at the person at the next table again, but it happened that the person got up. Dressed in a half-worn gray and blue jacket, he is still dressed three points thicker than ordinary people in hot days, his back is straight, his face is ordinary, but his lips are white, his face is white, and he is weak and dies early.

As soon as the man turned his head, he bumped into Sang Ling's sight, but he didn't lose his color, only smiled politely, lowered his head to avoid Sang Ling's sight, took out a silver bag in his hand, took out ten copper coins, put them on the tea table, and prepared to leave-

Obviously, he was planning to pay for the dim sum just now, but he was a gentleman among mortals.

"Doctor Liu?"

Sang Ling stopped the person with a loud voice, and seeing that he was puzzled, she showed the bandaged wound on her right hand, and said with a light smile:

"Do you have a thin bandage? We can buy it with you. ”

Su Luo strangely followed Sang Ling's line of sight and turned his head to look, saw the medicine box that the other party was carrying, and smiled easily:

"It's like I've met a doctor here, we didn't have anything to do all the way to the hospital, and we couldn't even buy this fine bandage."

Liu Jinqing only smiled when she heard this, covered her mouth and coughed lightly, with some kindness that the doctor Sang Ling had contacted before did not have:

"In Xia, Liu Jinqing is a rough doctor in a nearby village. I have a thin bandage here, you don't need to buy it, it's worthless things, you can just take them. ”

A slender and thin hand handed it over two small rolls of fine cloth carefully tied with a fine hemp rope.

Sang Ling wanted to pick it up, but Liu Jinqing avoided it slightly, only put it on the clean table, saluted again, and turned to leave.

"A strange man."

Sang Ling picked up the two rolls of fine bandages, but her eyes were looking at Su Luo.

Su Luo raised his eyebrows, a little puzzled:

"Strange, what's weird?"

"That's it, that's it...... Well, can't tell. ”

After a long pause, Sang Ling shook her head helplessly.

Su Luo almost didn't get her panting answer, and he fell back in breath.

"I've found out now, where are you a stupid hamster, you are completely a bad hamster with a black conscience, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger! I'm telling you, the more you drive me, the more I won't leave, you don't have to do everything you can to deliberately anger me like this, want to make me angry and run away! ”

"Actually......"

"Humph!"

Sang Ling hesitated to explain, but the person in front of her was blown up, Mo said that the tea was not poured for her, and even the fan of the wind was taken back by him, and he never fanned it again.

Alas, actually, I didn't mean to be angry with you. I just think that person does look a little weird, but she can't say it.

The atmosphere in the tea shed had not been frozen for long, and a shouting suddenly sounded from outside.

"Tong Suo is not bullied - everything - come and see!"

Under a big tree outside the tea shed, a merchant was carrying a box and shouting loudly and slowly walked towards this side, attracting many village children to come over to watch, and even Liu Jinqing, who had just left, also followed.

The cargo box was opened, and there were a lot of small things, rough sweeping, hoop earrings, coarse cloth needles and chisels, and even candy and peanuts.

The children came out with three or two copper plates, bought a piece of candy, and laughed and hugged the child who was pinching the candy and left.

The distance between the merchant and their seats was only two or three meters, Sang Ling was not a mortal after all, her eyesight was outstanding, and she could easily see that Liu Jianqing was holding three or two hostas in her hand, and she was very hesitant.

However, for some reason, the merchant directly shouted a very low price, and Liu Jinqing immediately put down the hosta in his hand, turned around and left.

The merchant immediately stopped the person:

"Doctor Liu, there was a plague here back then, if it weren't for your bloodletting and medicine to treat everyone, my wife and I would have died a long time ago, and my kindness and I can't repay it, I hope you accept this little heart."

What this merchant said was sincere, and he almost burst into tears.

Liu Jinqing was stunned, and finally turned around, took the money, and paid him directly at a market price.

"Ahem, ahem..... In the year of the plague, it was my lady who went up the mountain to collect the elixir for me to drink, and my blood had an effect, and she should be thanked. ”

The merchant smiled and did not answer.

only handed over the three or two hostas for him to pick, and added a pair of good-looking red agate earrings into it.

"Things are worthless, they just look good, if you like it, take it back and save it for your wife."

Liu Jinqing didn't want it, but the pair of earrings in front of her were very beautiful, and the silver thread was carefully woven into a flower shape, which was delicate and chic.

"It's really good-looking, I paid for the earrings."

Sang Ling also came over and stood beside Liu Jinqing, but the corner of her eye glanced slightly at the corner next to her-

A corner of the yellow shirt jumps over at such speed that it is almost impossible to catch with the naked eye.

Liu Jinqing next to her wanted to resign, but was stopped by Sang Ling:

"As the merchant said, earrings are not worth much, so I should think of them as the money I paid for the fine bandage. Dr. Liu continued to pick hairpins, and he couldn't delay the time when the merchant went to sell the goods. ”

Liu Jinqing sighed helplessly, and it seemed that similar situations had happened too many times, so she could only bow her head and continue to choose.

However, as a man, he is not yet skilled in buying jewelry. The three hairpins in his hand, he chose for a long time, but he just went to one, Sang Ling saw him like this, and took the initiative to speak:

"Doctor Liu, what is your wife's complexion and what are your usual preferences?"

Liu Jinqing was slightly stunned, hesitated for a moment before slowly replied:

"It should be fair-skinned and snowy."

"Huh?"

Sang Ling looked at him strangely, what does it mean to "should be"?

Seeing that the fine bandages he gave him just now were all carefully tied, he must not be careless, how could he not even figure out the skin color of his wife who was facing each other day and night?

Pressing down the doubts in her heart, Sang Ling only clicked a hosta inlaid with red beads in the air:

"White snow and red plums, they look good, and they also match the pair of red agate earrings just now."

Liu Jinqing breathed a sigh of relief and saluted Sang Ling.

"Thanks for the pointers."

Sang Ling looked at his old-fashioned style, and suddenly sneered, she could understand why Liu Jinqing was so strange.
