Chapter 47: Deep in the Heart
After Wu Xiao left, Hongyu was busy in Shoushan Hall alone, Lao Xie was a very good helper, so that Hongyu saved a lot of effort, Xiao Wu and Xiao Qi were also very obedient, and they became more and more familiar with the things on the counter, and Hongyu could put all his spirit on medicine and cherishing.
Shoushantang has made a good reputation in the Chang'an area, and its fame is getting bigger and bigger, and many people come to Shoushantang from far away to treat diseases.
Red fish will be some common diseases of the recipe into a variety of pills, with wax wrapped, can be stored for a long time, ordinary people can also buy some back for backup, some colds, colds, headaches and brain fever or something, do not need to run to the hospital once.
Wu Xiao has been gone for more than half a year, and he will bring a letter to Hongyu every ten days and half a month through the mail route of the Salt Gang, and he has never stopped, and receiving Wu Xiao's letter is also the happiest time for Hongyu.
Every time the letter is sent by Wu Sheng himself, by the way, let's see if there is anything for the Red Fish to do with the salt gang, but it has been very calm recently, and the guards patrolling the streets near Shoushan Hall seem to have increased a lot, and the security in this area is very good.
In the letter, Wu Xiao would report his recent situation in Mobei to Hongyu, even on the eve of the war with the Turks, Wu Xiao only rested for a while after writing the letter.
When Hongyu received this letter, the news of the great victory of the Mobei Army had already been transmitted back to Chang'an before this letter, if not, it is estimated that Hongyu would not be able to sleep for a few days.
People were talking about this great victory, and the name of General Kei was almost a household name, and the patients and relatives who were waiting in line at Shouzendo sometimes talked about it, but none of them knew what General Kei, who was being rumored more and more, had anything to do with this beautiful female doctor in front of people.
And every time Redfish hears these talks, his heart is full of pride, full of enthusiasm and expectation.
During the estimated time that Wu Xiao left, Shoushantang was a lot quieter, there was no sound of Zhaohu going upstairs, and there was no cold look up to find Yan Nu standing silently in front of her, and there was no figure that had accompanied her for more than ten years in front of her.
Ran Er Hongyu was surprisingly calm during this time, only occasionally when there were no patients, watching the crowd coming and going outside Shoushan Hall in a daze.
Sometimes Lao Xie would make a cup of tea and send it over, and teased a few words: "Did the little brother say when he would come back?"
"Say it's going to be a few months," Hongyu said faintly, then came to his senses, and said cautiously: "Old Xie!"
Lao Xie laughed, went to the counter to get busy, and Hongyufu looked out with his cheeks in his hands.
In fact, during this time, she figured out a lot of things, and she slowly let go of some of the blockages, she couldn't live without Wu Xiao, not for a moment.
"Brother Xi is victorious in Mobei, I'm late to congratulate you, don't blame it!" a loud and hearty laugh came from outside the hall.
Hongyu turned his head to look, but it was Ma Tianhong, the leader of the Salt Gang, who walked in with several Jiangnan Tangkou hall masters that Hongyu was familiar with, and the last one was Zeng Asheng.
The red fish jumped up: "Brother Ma, Uncle Zeng, why are you here?" ”
"Let's take a look at how the red fish from Jiangnan are doing in Chang'an," Zeng Asheng said with a smile.
"I'm fine, thank you for thinking about it," Redfish beckoned a few people into the backyard, and ordered some tea and dried fruits.
They sat down on the wooden table in the backyard to chat, and talked about some recent situations, and Hongyu asked some more about the situation in Jiangnan, and it could be seen that she was still very concerned about Jiangnan.
"I will send someone to take care of Zhuyuan from time to time, don't worry, if you go back with Brother Wu, you will also have a home," Zeng Asheng said
"Thank you, Uncle Zeng, for your thoughtfulness," Hongyu smiled happily.
"What else to thank, Brother Xi opened the door for the gang on the table of the government, whether the business in the gang is good or not, the tens of thousands of brothers in the salt gang still have to thank you sisters and brothers" Ma Tianhong said with a smile
"How do you have time to come to Chang'an?" asked Redfish
"Brother Zeng took his brother on a trip to Mobei, and met me, as soon as we totaled, we simply came to see you, so I came," Ma Tianhong said
"I brought some Jiangnan specialty dishes, I guess you are not used to the taste of the north," Zeng Asheng said, and asked the brothers behind him to carry a few baskets of dried vegetables, sauces, sausages and so on in the south of the Yangtze River.
Hongyu was pleasantly surprised, and the straight road could fight the tooth sacrifice for a while, and the few people chatted for a while, and had dinner together, and Ma Tianhong took the salt gang brothers away.
When parting, Hongyu's eyes were red, Zeng Asheng comforted a few words, and reluctantly left, Jiangnan still longed for Hongyu, it is the common memory of Hongyu and the Salt Gang, and the Red Fish is the closest link between the Salt Gang and Wu Xiao.
Not only is the salt gang worried about the red fish, but Xu Ziwang, the young proprietor of the Angelica store, also remembers her, but he just thinks differently.
Since Hongyu told him last time that it was impossible to commit to him, Xu Ziwang was lost for a while, and followed the family's business, wandering around from south to north, saying that it was for business, but the people around him could see that the young proprietor was going out for a walk.
Even on the road, I don't have much mood to care about the family's business, and I am nostalgic for the famous mountains and rivers all the way, and the strange and beautiful secluded place, and the mood is a lot soothed, but from time to time a sentence makes the people around me understand that this young proprietor has fallen into the ditch.
What he often said was, "If the Redfish Girl is here, she'll like it."
A few months later, Xu Ziwang came to Chang'an again, and when he appeared in front of the door of Shoushan Hall, he walked around a few times outside and didn't know what reason to enter.
When Hongyu walked to the railing on the second floor facing the street, he saw him and called him in enthusiastically, so Xu Ziwang raised his legs and walked into the Shoushan Hall
"I came to Chang'an with medicine, come and see you," Xu Ziwang said to Hongyu
Hongyu looked at his two hands that he didn't know where to put them, and said with a smile: "Xu Gongzi came to see me, I'm happy, come in and have a cup of tea."
Redfish took him to the small room inside and asked Xiao Wu to serve tea.
"What have you been up to lately?" asked Redfish
"In recent months, I have been to many places, met many people, encountered many things, and seen a lot of scenery," Xu Ziwang said as he looked at Hongyu
"Is Xu Gongzi going out to do business, or going to the mountains and rivers," Hongyu quipped
"Business is fine, there are a few old people on the counter to check it, so there will be no problems," Xu Ziwang said
"I asked people to handle the medicinal materials you gave last time, and they should be able to be delivered soon," Xu Ziwang remembered this matter and explained to Hongyu.
"It's not in a hurry, when it's convenient, when it's good to send it over, it's just that you always don't charge money, I'm embarrassed" Hongyu said
"Do we have any dealings with each other, your brother has made a lot of money for our store, so don't tell me about this anymore" Xu Ziwang said with a smile
"Well, that's what you said," Redfish said with a wry smile
"I heard that the shopkeeper Chen said that you have added a son, congratulations," Hongyu said again
"When I went back, the child was just full moon, and he looked good, I stayed at home for half a month, and then came out with the family's business," Xu Ziwang said
The two chatted for a while, Xu Ziwang got up to say goodbye, Hongyu didn't stay, sent him to the door, watched Xu Ziwang slowly walk out of the alley without saying anything, Hongyu sighed faintly.
There is no place in her heart where she can let go of another person, although Xu Ziwang is a temporary choice in terms of character and family background.
The red fish had never been so eager for Wu Xiao to come back as he was now, eager to sit in the attic with him in his arms and watch the moon in the sky, eager to smell the smell of sweat on his body.
She is a woman who is very content, she has nothing to ask for Wu Xiao, she just hopes that he will live well and stay by her side.
In these days of living alone, she figured it out, she was going to marry him, to give him and herself a name, she wanted to have a little child for him, to watch the child grow up, to watch him grow old.
Watching him roll in the world, giving him wings to fly, and creating the last warm harbor for him, if this life is spent like this, she feels that this is what she wants.
However, the world is always enveloping all the people in this torrent, and no one can predict the direction of going, from the king to the people.
