Chapter 72
The next day, Lingzhi woke up with a clogged nose.
He realized that he must have suffered from the cold from watching the snow last night, and the sky was getting bright, so he went downstairs and asked Xiao Er for a bowl of ginger soup.
Lingzhi sat in the lobby on the first floor and sipped a whole bowl of warm ginger soup. When the bottom of the bowl was empty, she got up and went upstairs, bumping into Master Shen who was going out.
Master Shen's eyes were black and blue, Lingzhi said: "Master Shen, did you rest well?"
Master Shen put his big hands on his rough cheeks and rubbed them together, then he said to Lingzhi: "Go downstairs and have breakfast first."
As soon as the words fell, Lingzhi heard the other party sigh.
Master Shen cursed cursingly, and said: "I followed the advice of the county master. I thought that with his recommendation letter, I would be able to find a job for my youngest in Yandu. Once the youngest passes by, he will just sweep the floor and do chores for others. !"
Master Shen was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick. They were ordinary people, and they didn't dare to imagine how much their descendants had done in Yandu. Serve as a guard.
Shen Wu has inherited master Shen's divine power, and since he has practiced martial arts since childhood, there are few people in the county who can fight like Shen Wu.
Master Shen smashed his fist on the table as if venting his anger, and said: "The money has been given away, and people have come to Yandu. I can't just go back to Yakumo Village naked. I'll go out and talk about it today."
Ling Zhi didn't know how to comfort her, so Master Shen grinned and said, "Let's not talk about the bad things, I'll go out after eating the noodles, Yandu is lively, remember to wear extra clothes when you go out to play, the capital city is snowy, walk outside After a while, my ears are going to freeze off."
Master Shen ate in a hurry, and before Lingzhi finished a third of a bowl of Yangchun noodles, he sent someone out of the inn.
After finishing breakfast, Lingzhi went back to the guest room and slept for a while, and was still not hungry after getting up.
He reached out and rubbed his nose, and the blockage from the early cold had gone away.Lingzhi carefully put on her winter clothes, opened the window and leaned on the window rod to look around.
The night of the New Year's Day is very late, and there is still thick snow on the ground and red firecrackers left by the fireworks.Residents are not going out at the moment, the shops on the street are open, and there are only a few hawkers.
Faced with the cold wind, Lingzhi clasped his hands and rubbed them together. He closed the window and went downstairs to inquire with Xiao Er, asking if the plum garden would be open during New Year's Day.
Xiaoer said: "Open it." He even enthusiastically introduced it to Lingzhi.
In the old days, there were many patients who came to Meiyuan for medical treatment, including many princes and nobles from all over the Yan Dynasty.
The plum garden is only deserted during the New Year's Day, so the owner of the plum garden, that is, Mei Ruobai, the immortal doctor who is praised by people, gives ordinary old, weak, sick and poor patients ten days before and after the New Year's Day. Diagnosis and treatment, as long as the conditions are met, the patient's money for seeing a doctor and medicine will not be charged.
Therefore, many people who live in poverty and suffer from diseases all go to Meiyuan to see a doctor at this time.
Xiaoer sighed: "My mother suffered from bone pain when it was winter. She also went to the Plum Garden a few days ago to queue up. After the doctor read it, she took a few plasters and went home. Last night, she told me about the pain on her body. Much more slowly."
Xiaoer said: "The doctors in Meiyuan are all good people!"
Lingzhi agrees.
Nothing happened today, he planned to visit Mei Ruobai in the plum garden.
Lingzhi took an umbrella and walked out of the inn. She didn't have much money with her, so she stepped on the snow and rushed there on foot.
Someone was clearing snow on the road extending from the gate of Meiyuan, and some patients who were queuing up to see a doctor rushed to help.
There were a lot of patients who came to see a doctor, so the team lined up outside the door. The snow on the road was cleared, and the children in Meiyuan moved out benches and let the patients sit on the benches and wait.
When Lingzhi came, the purpose of entering was the patients who lined up from the front of the plum garden to the end of the street.
He crossed the queue and walked outside the gate, when someone reminded him not to join the queue, Lingzhi smiled restrainedly and explained to the other party that he was not here to see a doctor.
The little boy who came out to distribute the hot soup was surprised when he saw Lingzhi.
"Mr. Ling, why are you here? Follow me into the house!"
As soon as he entered the Plum Garden, Lingzhi saw many tents set up in the front yard, separating rooms for temporary consultations.
Through the front yard, the inner hall is much quieter.A faint, bitter fragrance emanated from the heater placed in the hall, Lingzhi walked around the ink screen, and saw Mei Ruobai administering needles through the bamboo curtain.
He didn't make a sound, and sat quietly on the bamboo chair beside him.
Until Mei Ruobai finished administering the needle, she turned her head and saw a pair of black and shining eyes, the joy on her face was no less than that of a childish one.
"Why didn't you talk when you came here?" Mei Ruobai took the medicine towel handed by the boy to wipe her hands, and let the steward clean up the rest of the patient's cleaning work.
Lingzhi followed Mei Ruobai's wheelchair towards another room, and said, "I'm worried about disturbing you to see a doctor."
Mei Ruobai said with a smile: "I only treat patients that they can't see, most of the patients are asked to see by other doctors."
Mei Ruobai handed Lingzhi a cup of hot tea, poured one for herself, and looked at the boy in front of her while drinking.
He said: "A little thin."
He asked again, "When did you go to Yandu?"
Lingzhi told Master Shen that she and Master Shen went to Yandu, but did not tell Mei Ruobai what they were going to do in Yandu.
Mei Ruobai sighed: "It's been a hard journey for you, sit down first."
Lingzhi sat down on the chair next to Mei Ruobai, and immediately felt warm in her hands and feet after drinking the hot tea.
He unbuttoned the outermost layer of winter clothes, during which Mei Ruobai saw a patient with more complex symptoms, Lingzhi stopped by to take over the work of the child, and gave Mei Ruobai a hand.
At noon, Lingzhi and Mei Ruobai had meals together.
Mei Ruobai took good care of him, obviously Lingzhi was a guest on this trip, but the other party prepared many New Year gifts for him and told Lingzhi to bring them when he left.
Lingzhi nana, clumsily declined.
Mei Ruobai persuaded him politely, saying that these are all made by Meiyuan herself, and everyone in the garden will get a share to take home, and then tell Lingzhi that it is not easy for him to go to Yandu, so he will bring some specialties of Yandu back. If you can't finish it yourself, it's a good idea to share it with the villagers.
The villagers of Yayun Village know how much they yearn for Yandu. They are in awe of this place that they may never visit in their lifetime. If they can share Yandu's special products, they will be very happy.
The special products that Mei Ruobai asked to install were almost only food, Lingzhi quietly took a child to a corner to inquire, and learned that the special products were indeed made by the cooks in the garden, so she accepted them with peace of mind.
Special products are very important, Mei Ruobai asked for the address of the inn where Lingzhi was temporarily staying, and told Lingzhi that someone would send it to his room in the evening.
Everyone in Meiyuan was busy seeing patients, Lingzhi was too embarrassed to disturb Mei Ruobai for too long, and said goodbye to her after noon.
There were people clearing the snow on the street one after another, Lingzhi was much more convenient to walk, he didn't go back to the inn right away, he walked two more streets from the plum garden to wait for him at the mansion that Master Shen said.
The sky was gloomy, Lingzhi clutched her fluffy collar tightly, walked outside a mansion, looked at the plaque with gold and black background, after confirming the location, she just stood beside the stone lion outside the gate and waited quietly.
When the servant from the mansion came out, he caught a glimpse of a figure circling beside the stone lion, and immediately stepped forward to reprimand him politely.
A strong wind blew up, and Lingzhi was taking advantage of the lion's constant turning to shield himself from the wind, when he was suddenly reprimanded by someone, and he was startled.
He turned his head to look at the person who was coming to chase him away, his lips moved, and another gust of cold wind hit his face.
Lingzhi quickly raised her hand to cover her face, and soon, something soft and cold fell from the back of her hand.
He looked up at the snow falling freely under the cloudy sky, and exhaled a white cold air from his lips.
"It's snowing again."
The servant glared: "Who are you, why are you standing here so sneakily?"
Lingzhi explained with a good temper: "I'm waiting for someone, Master Shen."
He also said: "Master Shen came to visit the owner of this mansion today, I want to wait for him to go back to the inn together."
The servant made a gesture to push him away, but Lingzhi walked around to the side of the stone lion to avoid it.
The servant said bluntly: "There are too many people visiting our master during the Chinese New Year. Who is Master Shen? Leave quickly, don't stay outside the door to block your eyes."
Although Lingzhi has an outstanding appearance, he doesn't dress like a kid from a noble family, so the servant is not polite to him.
Lingzhi didn't make a sound, the servant's unilateral quarrel caused a middle-aged man in charge to walk out of the gate of the mansion. The man frowned and scolded a few words. From the corner of his eye, he saw the boy behind the stone lion. It was he who turned around and hurried into the mansion, and reported the matter to an aide who was reused by the adults.
A few days ago, the steward saw the grand master carrying a boy back to his residence on the street, and the boy's appearance was vaguely similar to the name outside the door.
He was worried that his memory would be wrong, and he was also afraid of making mistakes, so after reporting the news to the lord's staff, someone in the mansion immediately went to the Grand Master's mansion to report the news.
If the young man outside the door is not that person, their adults will be in vain at most, there are many dignitaries who will show their hospitality to the Grand Master's residence, there is no shortage of their family, and the Grand Master will not worry about it.
But if you have not identified the wrong person, and you have provided the correct information, you will not be allowed to remember the grand master once.
It is related to the official career of an adult, and the manager dare not neglect.
All in all, the news quickly reached Xiao Yan's ears.
After finishing the discussion with several confidants, Xiao Yan walked out of the Nuan Pavilion, circled back and forth, and left the mansion in a carriage.
He waited until midnight to play and enjoy the snow with Lingzhi yesterday, Lingzhi should annoy him today.
Xiao Yan originally wanted to wait another day, so that Lingzhi could feel better, and then go to the inn to find someone at night.
At this moment, Lingzhi was standing outside the mansion of an official who had no impression, and it was snowing again, wondering if the other party had left.
Xiao Yan didn't want Lingzhi to annoy him, so he endured not arranging anyone to follow him until he left the house at this moment, Xiao Yan knew that he would never let Lingzhi go.
What kind of tolerance and generosity are all endured.
Every time I "let go", my heart is always suspended, and I can't let it go.
It's hard to live in a place so far away from Baiyun Village. When a person appears under his nose, he has to endure not to find the other person's trace, Xiao Yan can't bear it.
At this time, outside the mansion of an unknown official, Lingzhi took an umbrella to avoid the snow.
He was surrounded by several people, and even the housekeepers invited him into the house to have a cup of hot tea to warm up.
"Young master, it's snowing heavily outside, let's go into the house, your lord will come later."
Lingzhi's eyelids twitched, and she quickly blocked them with an umbrella.
He asked, "Aren't your lords in the mansion?"
The steward said: "Sir, hurry back soon."
Lingzhi thought that since the lord was not there, then Master Shen must not be there either.
He said softly: "Thank you for your kindness, I will go back."
He left in a hurry, and even ran to avoid the crowd
They look at themselves... like a piece of fat.
When Xiao Yan arrived at the mansion, the officials greeted him with smiles, but Ling Zhi was no longer seen outside the gate.
**
When Lingzhi returned to the inn, it was dark, the lanterns on the street were shaking violently, the wind was heavy and the snow was heavy, he walked into the inn to shake off the snow on his clothes, and happened to meet Master Shen who had just returned.
Master Shen swept away the depression in front of the door, and smiled at Lingzhi: "Just come back, let's eat first!"
He also told Lingzhi the news that he met a nobleman when he went out today, and the nobleman arranged a good job for Shen Wu again.
Master Shen drank a bowl of broth and sighed: "I will feel at ease when the youngest's errands are arranged. Although Yandu is good, it is not suitable for ordinary people like us to stay here. Let's go back tomorrow."
Lingzhi nodded.
Master Shen said again: "I heard Xiao Er said that the steward of Meiyuan sent a lot of things to your room just now?"
Lingzhi simply told Master Shen about her relationship with Meiyuan. Master Shen gave him a thumbs up and said, "You are very capable, it would be a pity to stay in the village."
Lingzhi stroked the teacup: "The village is clean, and everyone is kind-hearted to me, but it might not be so good if I stay in Yandu."
Master Shen laughed: "You have this state of mind, you are better than most people!"
Lingzhi and Master Shen finished their broth and dinner and went back to the guest room.
He asked Xiao Er to bring a bucket of hot water to take a bath, and just after wiping his body, when his whole body was still steaming wet, there was a knock on the door.
He was wearing a belt, and he opened the door after he had tied it neatly.
The handsome man outside made Lingzhi want to close the door with a backhand.
Xiao Yan raised his hand to block it, and called him in a hoarse voice: "Lingzhi."
Lingzhi looked left and right at the empty corridor, Xiao Yan looked down at him, and the breath of speaking fell on Lingzhi's ears.
"I came to see you."
Lingzhi drooped her eyes, and her ears turned slightly red after being smoked by Xiao Yan's breath.
He pursed his lips, and said with a hint of avoidance: "You go, don't always come to me."
He added: "I'll go back tomorrow, and we won't meet again in the future."
Xiao Yan took advantage of Lingzhi's retreat and stepped into the door.
Facing the boy staring at him, he was not at all intimidated by these beautiful and clean eyes.
He smiled softly and said, "It's okay, if you don't like Yandu, then don't come."
Lingzhi stretched out his hand to push Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan flipped his palm over and held Lingzhi's wrist loosely.
Seeing the young man pulling his hand away like a frightened kitten, a deeper smile could not help but float on his lips.
Be obedient, and always make people unable to restrain themselves from wanting to bully, bullying gently, not daring to be too ruthless.
Xiao Yanliang showed the paper bag in his hand: "I brought some snacks, how about some?"
In addition to snacks, Xiao Yan also took out a pot of brewed fruit water.
Lingzhi said: "You came here at night just to find me something to eat?"
Xiao Yan looked at him intently, her brows and eyes under the lamp were as deep as the sea.
Xiao Yan nodded lightly: "If I say yes, are you trustworthy?"
Xiao Yan handed the silver chopsticks to Lingzhi: "Try it, okay, I don't do anything."
The wind and snow were whistling outside the window, and the hot food that Xiao Yan placed under the lamp exuded bursts of strong fragrance.
Lingzhi was awkward, he didn't move, Xiao Yan didn't move.
He was a little annoyed, so he picked up the silver chopsticks and took a sip.
The meat slices are crispy, with the sweet and sour aroma of the fruit, and the taste immediately melts away as soon as you enter the mouth.
Lingzhi stared down at these snacks, and said the words to Xiao Yan.
"I have tasted it, you can go now."
Xiao Yan stared carefully at Lingzhi's stiff body. There was a fragrance after bathing on his body, mixed with a slightly bitter smell of medicine, which made his heart move.
Finally, Xiao Yan still stood up.
"I have a few words, and I'll leave after I finish speaking."
Xiao Yan said: "Lingzhi, I am very happy that you can come to see me in Yandu."
"I am happy with you, don't ask to go back to the past, and give me a chance to stay by your side?"
Lingzhi put down her silver chopsticks.
Xiao Yan asked in a low voice: "How can I give me a chance?" He didn't think about it, "Is it okay if I die?"
As the fire light jumped, so did the light in Lingzhi's eyes.
He clenched his hands into fists and tightened his lips like a budding flower.
"You and I are clear, don't say these words again."
Xiao Yan realized that Lingzhi was really angry, so she calmed down.
"It's okay, you can go back tomorrow, and I'll see you off."
Before Lingzhi's face changed, he said: "Follow me and send it off quietly, so that no one will find out."
Lingzhi's face was tense, and she reprimanded softly: "You go."
Lingzhi really didn't want Xiao Yan to stay in the room.
Xiao Yanyang's smile froze on the corner of his lips, and it fell quietly.
He sighed, walked outside the door, looked at Lingzhi's motionless back without blinking, and said before closing the door: "You live well in Yakumo Village, and you have to take care of yourself in everything..."
Lingzhi thought the last sentence was a hallucination, so Xiao Yan whispered "I will find you".
The author says:
The mountain is not just me, I am the mountain.Lingzhi didn't need to take one step, but the Grand Master could take a hundred steps.
