Chapter 147: Poor Hospitality
"It's a prescription. When Master Huang saw Tao Ziyun and the inspector enter the room where the wounded were located, he handed a note to Tao Ziyun, and the inspector handed the ingot of silver to Master Huang.
Master Huang just wanted to say something to the inspector, but Tao Ziyun's question came first: "Master Huang, so many people have all been scratched or stabbed, the amount of medicine written on your medicine list is not enough, right?"
"There are many kinds of medicines in my carriage, but the amount of each medicine I bring is not much, because I don't know the number of injured people in advance, so I can only dispense that amount of medicine, and I can't go to bring the medicine again, otherwise I will delay the treatment, and I will boil those medicines as thoroughly as possible, and the effect of the medicine is also okay. Master Huang explained to Tao Ziyun while reluctantly accepting the silver that the inspector had forced into him.
Tao Ziyun went to the carriage to ask the housekeeper of the Huang Mansion to dispense medicine, and the inspector led the officers and soldiers to set up tables and chairs in a classroom that had not yet been opened, and then went to the kitchen to serve food and food.
Tao Ziyun took the medicinal materials for treating syncope and went to the kitchen to let Tao Ansai boil the medicine in a cauldron. Master Huang followed, handed the silver to Tao Ziyun and said, "You see that your food is so light, your life is very hard, I can't accept this money." ”
The inspector who had expected this step earlier, followed by Master Huang, he came over and said, "What kind of life is hard? You still dislike Brother Tao, right?"
Master Huang said to Tao Ziyun: "Look at your friend, why is this so, I didn't accept him just now, and I want to accept it." I guessed that this money belongs to you, we are relatives, you are not good at giving me money, but you have such a fierce friend to give you a head. Isn't that what spoiled you?"
"Knowing that I am his friend, do you dare to dislike Brother Tao?" The inspector did not get angry, but blamed Master Huang with an indifferent expression.
Tao Ziyun saw that the situation was getting worse, and hurriedly persuaded the inspectors: "Don't go too far! It is good for the government and the people to live in peace! I am not angry, and it is natural for me to be disliked by others." Don't say that again. ”
"I didn't dislike Ziyun! I also married my daughter to him!" Master Huang argued unconvinced.
What else did the inspector want to say, but he was forcefully stopped by Tao Ziyun at the right time.
Moss Yu also accosted at this time: "Master, if you don't dislike it, just accept the money, we didn't expect to entertain so many officers and soldiers, it was too late to buy vegetables when it got dark, so we picked vegetables from the vegetable field in the backyard here, plus a small amount of beef originally prepared, although it was lighter, but this is Ziyun's intention, and we can only let everyone settle for it." ”
Master Huang pondered. Put the ingot of silver into the medical box that he never left and said, "I understand your intentions, so I'll take it." Moss Yu, it seems that you are better with Ziyun than in our family, you have to help Ziyun make the family business bigger and better. ”
"Master, I know, I think Tao Gongzi is okay, you better persuade Miss, if she can marry, I will follow her as a scholar, and I will be happier. "Moss Yu asked Master Huang a little lonely.
Tao Ansai, who had been silently busy in the kitchen, broke the deadlock: "Okay. I've boiled the medicine in the cauldron, let the bean soldiers burn the fire here, let's all have dinner!"
"Stay with your soldiers. Look over there, Master Huang and his butler are sitting together. I'm going to stay with him. Tao Ziyun did not agree to the invitation of the inspector to sit with him for dinner, and walked to the other side of Master Huang to sit down. Among all the staff, he drank with Master Huang.
The girls who came from the Laojun Temple had already helped the sow to the dinner table. She also had a cupping cup, a small copper cup, attached to her forehead, and she sat with the students at a large round table. It was one of the special dining tables that had been moved from the kitchen, and most of the others had been replaced with unused desks. Except for Tao Ziyun's cousin and Tao Ansai's two best friends who were still sleeping in the room, they were still a little crowded when they sat there, and Moss Yu, who was wearing men's clothes, chose to sit next to Tao Ziyun.
Tao Ziyun shouted at his sister: "Ansai, come here, let them have one table, so many tables, it's inconvenient for you to squeeze together!"
"Where did you squeeze it? We're not afraid! We're all willing to squeeze it!" Tao Ansai replied to Tao Ziyun very disrespectfully.
Tao Ziyun said to Taoyu beside him in frustration: "This kind of Ansai really makes people feel hopeless, you have to help me educate her in a targeted and good way in class." ”
"You can't blame her now, they don't like to sit with you guys. Moss Yu also did not agree with Tao Ziyun's opinion.
"I understand, under your education, they have all re-established their various opinions, no wonder Yuyuan refused to agree to my request in the Lost City, it is really a gain and a loss, I am self-inflicted. Tao Ziyun shook his head with a self-deprecating smile.
"What do you want from Yuyuan in the Lost City?" asked Tess sensitively.
"Oh, yes, a request that you don't have to worry about. Master Huang is here, we can't snub Master Huang, let's accompany him to do a lot of homework. Tao Ziyun took the opportunity to divert the topic, persuaded Master Huang to drink, and kept talking nonsense with him.
Moss Yu held a little food for Qin Ji on his shoulder with the palm of his hand, glanced at Tao Ziyun again, and interjected: "Listening to what you and the master have said so much, it seems to be getting more and more angry." Tomorrow is the Chung Yeung Festival, let's bring some gifts to meet the lord and the lady. ”
Master Huang politely excused himself: "Don't be so polite, in this way, you will ask Qin Ji to send a letter to Miss tomorrow and greet her, you can just break up with her." ”
"It's okay to write a letter of greetings to Miss tomorrow. I also want to tell everyone, Hu He's father and daughter said, let's write a letter to their people who are still in Shanyin, ask Qin Ji to send them over to greet each other, and send it to Fucai Guan first, and the Fucai Daoist will send it to other people to read. As soon as Tao Ziyun announced this, the people who came from Shanyin welcomed it in an uproar!
Apparently missing her students over there, she happily said to the girls, "Shall we all write letters to them together?
Not only the students from San'in, but also the girls in the school all applauded and agreed! Tao Ansai put down the dishes and chopsticks and walked out: "I'll go get a pen and paper, and write what I say!"
"What a good thing, Ansai! Tao Ziyun complained with a mouth full of wine, and the smell of wine was so smoky that Moss Yu picked up the bowl and walked away.
Tao Ziyun got up and pressed Moss Yu back to his seat: "It's better for you to sit, I'll get up and take a walk, and teach my disobedient sister a lesson." ”
Tao Ansai came back and brought in a small box.
Tao Ziyun's lesson began: "Sister. Isn't my brother scolding you, aren't you going to write letters to the people over there in San'in together? But your two best friends and cousins, who are still asleep in their rooms, can be regarded as writing letters to them in San'in together?"
Ansai sat back in his seat, put the box on the edge of the table, turned around and asked Tao Ziyun with beautiful eyes: "We healthy people write our part first, leave some blanks, and fill them in when they wake up, isn't it also called joint letterwriting?"
"Strong words!" Tao Ziyun said that he was going to grab Ansai's box, and he was going to convince people with his strength!
"Ziyun, let your sister make trouble! Don't ruin her interest! I think she can't do anything about it. Old Man Huang bitterly dissuaded Tao Ziyun.
As soon as he heard Master Huang mention Miss Huang, Tao Ziyun's heart stirred, and his movements eased down, and Tao Ansai took the opportunity to hold the box in his arms.
"Okay, I'm not going to rob it, see what they write. Tao Ziyun stood behind Ansai and urged them to get up.
Tao Ansai opened the box and took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the top, and there was more than half a box of copper coins inside!
"Yes, ghost girl. You actually hide so much private money from your family!" Tao Ziyun, who had seen a lot of money, was stunned by the private money collected by his sister who only knew how to do housework!
"Hehe, it's not the money I kept hidden from my family, it's my mother who gave me all her change, saying that I should save the dowry money by myself!" Tao Ansai said proudly to everyone.
"Dowry! Then you don't keep it well. Isn't it eye-popping to get here?" Tao Ziyun hated and complained that his sister was not doing things well.
Tao Ansai got up and pulled Tao Ziyun into the corner, and said into his ear: "The bag of gold and silver you gave me, I have hidden it in my room." I will replace this box of copper coins, tomorrow is the Chung Yeung Festival, and I want to give it to everyone as a gift. ”
"The bag of gold and silver. Didn't you say that you would use it for the expenses of the family and the school?" Tao Ziyun reminded his sister uneasily.
"So much gold and silver, according to the current expenses, can be used for a long time, and the rest is enough for my dowry. Tao Ansai told Tao Ziyun with certainty.
"So you've calculated everything, so let it be. After Tao Ziyun finished speaking, he was about to sit back beside Master Huang.
Tao Ansai grabbed him and added: "Don't go, you go out and mutiny your bean soldiers, and then bring them in to distribute copper coins to everyone." ”
Tao Ziyun did not object, and went straight to the door, and went outside to mutiny the bean soldiers, so as not to frighten Master Huang and his housekeeper.
"Okay, I told my brother that the soldiers and brothers came suddenly, so that we can't receive everyone well, because tomorrow is the Double Ninth Festival, I want to send you a small gift, this box of copper coins, it will be distributed to everyone, there will not be much to separate, but to be able to separate, is to let everyone understand our hearts, so that everyone can forgive us for our poor hospitality. Tao Ansai said calmly to everyone, attracting a round of applause and blessings from everyone, everyone said that although this matter was small, it was a gift that they did not dare to think of.
In the bustle, Tao Ziyun came in with more than 200 bean soldiers, Tao Ansai distributed the copper coins to the bean soldiers, and the bean soldiers were issued to the officers and soldiers present and the students in the school, of course, Master Huang and Tao Yu also accepted this heart, and Ansai also left a copy to the unconscious girls and officers and soldiers respectively.
In a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere, Master Huang said to Tao Ziyun: "Your sister is a good girl, you are his brother, under her influence, it will be good in the future!" (To be continued......)
