Chapter 73 Returning the Gift
140 pink plus update.
**********……………************
Doctor Shi once saved Zhang's life. At that time, even Huaer was not at home. Later, after hearing what others said, he remembered Doctor Shi's name firmly. At this time, Doctor Shi was used as a life-saving straw.
After hearing the request of Lian Huaer and Gu, Lian Shouren's eyes moved a little, and then turned to Lian Man'er's face.
"Milk, the fire in the outer room is still burning, don't burn the pot." Lian Huaer said to Zhou Shi. After saying that, he walked out of the west room first.
The fire in the outer room stove naturally had already been extinguished, and even Man'er did not stop in the outer room and went back to the west wing.
"How is the flower?" As soon as she entered the door, Shouxin and Zhang asked.
Zhang couldn't get off the kang yet, and even Shouxin was a man, so he couldn't always stay in the upper room. He just borrowed the opportunity to send Doctor Li to him, so he came out of the house and went back to the west wing to listen to the news.
"The bones were not damaged..." Lian Man'er said the general situation, "The uncle was afraid of leaving scars, so he asked him to go to the town to hire a doctor. Later, the uncle and sister Huaer asked the uncle to invite Doctor Shi."
"Ask Doctor Shi?" Even Shouxin and Zhang were surprised. After the last time, they all knew how difficult it was to invite Doctor Shi.
"Dad, if my uncle comes to let us go together later, don't agree." Lian Man'er said to Lian Shouxin.
"This..." Lian Shouxin felt a little embarrassed.
"Dad, if this is a life-saving matter, I will not stop him no matter who the other party is. But they want to leave scars. This, Dad, mother, do you think it is possible?"
Lian Shouxin just took a look at Lian Huaer's injuries. Although he didn't understand medical skills, he still had ordinary common sense, such scalds were impossible without leaving scars.
"It's unlikely." Lian Shouxin said.
It is not unlikely, it is impossible. Even in Lian Man'er's previous life, medical technology was highly developed and skin grafting was performed, but it is impossible for high scalds and burns to leave scars.
"Even if we agree to invite you, it's not too difficult to invite you." Lian Shouxin said to himself, "I'm afraid that Doctor Shi will be embarrassed by this injury."
Lian Man'er glanced at Lian Shouxin, and Lian Shouren would definitely come to find Lian Shouxin. Even if Lian Shouxin really didn't agree, he would feel uncomfortable.
Didn’t Shen Xiaopang say that Doctor Shi is in the provincial capital, and I don’t know when he will come back? Last time, she went to the town to buy something, but Doctor Shi hasn’t come back yet. But even if she told Lian Shouren that Doctor Shi was not here, I was afraid that I would not believe it, so I must come to confirm in person.
Lian Man'er's heart moved.
"Dad, otherwise you can agree." Lian Man'er said to Lian Shouxin, "But we owe Doctor Shi's favor. This time we go to invite him again, so we can't go empty-handed. Take fifty taels of silver and gold, and buy two jars of Jinhua wine. A single sheep must not be missing."
"Man'er is right." Lian Shouxin nodded.
Although the old man promised to pay the money from the official and thank Doctor Shi, the money was still gone. Why not take this opportunity to repay this favor? The so-called "When the river is not washed by the boat, Gu and the others were anxious to hire Doctor Shi, and the money would definitely be taken out.
"There is another thing, Dad, when you go to the town, you will take your uncle directly to invite Doctor Shi." Lian Man'er said again.
"Okay." Lian Shouxin agreed very happily.
Sure enough, after a while, I could hear footsteps outside, and then Lian Shouren and Lian Jizu walked in with the curtains.
"Fourth brother." Even Shouren was not too polite when he came in, but said to Lian Shouxin straight to the point, "I am afraid that Hua'er's leg injury will not be cured without the attack of Doctor Shi. Our doctor will not be cured. I am planning to invite Doctor Shi with Jizu, so you can go with your elder brother. If you have something last time, it's easy to talk to you when you go. Take Man'er with you."
It was obvious that Lian Shouxin and Lian Man'er wanted to invite Doctor Shi, but he refused to say that, as if he brought Lian Shouxin and Lian Man'er with him.
Even Shuixin is a good-tempered person, but it doesn't mean he is stupid. If it were usual, he might not care about this. However, after so many things have happened, he will not have any thoughts about this elder brother at all.
"Brother, your scholar is going to invite someone. I am a farmer and a little girl. Why bother to join in the fun?" Lian Shouxin said.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Lian Shouren's face.
"Fourth Uncle, my father and I don't know the details here. The last time I could invite Doctor Shi, it was up to you and Man'er." Lian Jizu said the truth and bowed to Lian Shouxin.
"Yes, yes, fourth brother, this matter is related to Huaer's life. She is your niece..." Lian Shouren said this, and when he saw Zhang sitting on the kang, he felt guilty and could not continue to say the rest.
"Uncle Fourth, you have a lot of them, please save the flowers." Lian Jizu said.
Lian Man'er looked around and thought to himself that Lian Jizu and Jiang's husband were two smart people.
Lian Shouxin felt a little soft-hearted towards Lian Jizu, and thought of Lian Man'er's instructions just now, so he said that.
"...We have no friendship with others, so we have to go empty-handed. No matter how they look at us, I don't have the same face."
Lian Shouren and Lian Jizu looked at each other, and Lian Jizu went to the room to discuss with Gu. After a while, Lian Jizu came back and held a bag of silver in his arms.
“There are only these now…”
"I have to go to the pharmacy to get medicine later. Is it enough money?" Lian Man'er said, seeing that there were about 60 taels of silver in it.
"Not..." Lian Jizu went out again, and after a while, he came back. This time there was no silver, but two golden bracelets and a golden hairpin. "These are two jewelry pieces that my mother and Yue'e gathered together. I'll do it first, and I'll find a way out if I don't have enough."
It seems that the Gu family has a certain wealth and has never been revealed before. Now there is no way out, so they took it out.
The gift was ready, and everyone no longer delayed it, so they came to the town. After entering the town, Lian Jizu went to the pawn shop, used as jewelry, and prepared to buy sheep wine. Lian Shouxin and Lian Shouren took the gifts to Shi Tai Doctor's house with the sealed gifts.
"We have to go to Jishengtang first and ask the Imperial Doctor Wang to follow you." Lian Shouren said.
It seems that Lian Shouren is not confused. He knows that he was able to invite Doctor Shi last time, the key is Wang Youheng's contribution.
"Let's go to Doctor Shi's place first." Lian Shouxin remembered Lian Man'er's instructions and said.
"Not Wang Xiao Doctor, this..." Lian Shouren looked at Lian Shouxin.
"Doctor Shi is an elder. He cares a lot about these etiquettes. If we go to Jishengtang first, Doctor Shi is afraid of being picky. He should go to Doctor Shi's place first... It's better to do this. My father and uncle will take the etiquette first. I will take Xiaoqi to Jishengtang and ask Brother Youheng to come over and meet with Dad and Uncle... Logically speaking, Uncle is still the elder of Brother Youheng. Brother Youheng knows that Uncle has passed. Hurry up immediately, so that everyone can have decent feelings." Lian Man'er said.
Lian Shouren thought Lian Man'er's words made sense, especially the latter sentence, which was very touching to his ears.
"That's it."
Lian Man'er told Lian Shouxin again that no matter whether Doctor Shi is present or not, they will always have a guardian in their family. They must keep gifts, gifts, etc.
"It goes without saying that this is etiquette." Lian Shuixin said.
When Lian Man'er saw Lian Shouxin say this, she felt relieved and took Xiaoqi to Jishengtang.
As soon as he arrived at the door of Jishengtang, Manager Wang happened to walk out of the store and saw Lian Man'er.
"Miss Lian San." Manager Wang greeted. Although there was a smile on his face, Lian Man'er could see that something was wrong. Manager Wang's smile was too professional. He completely lost the kindness he had when he saw her.
"Shopkeeper Wang, I'll take a look at Brother Youheng." Lian Man'er said.
"The young master's family has returned to the county but hasn't come back yet. Miss Third has something urgent? Otherwise, I'd better wait for two days before coming." Manager Wang said.
Manager Wang was obviously perfunctory. Lian Man'er didn't know why Manager Wang suddenly changed his attitude towards her.
"I'm fine, I just come to the town to buy things. By the way, see Brother Youheng." Lian Man'er said, "Brother Youheng hasn't come back, so I'll go buy things."
"Okay, Miss Three, walk slowly." Manager Wang seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Lian Man'er left the door of Jiseido and walked to the corner of the street. He looked back and saw that there was no one at Jiseido. Manager Wang had already returned to the store. She pulled Xiaoqi and turned into the alley next to her.
"Second sister, what are we doing?" Xiaoqi was puzzled.
"Shopkeeper Wang is a little strange," Lian Man'er said with his head tilted, "He doesn't seem to want us to see Brother Youheng."
"Why, we didn't offend him." Xiao Qi said.
"I can't think of why," Lian Man'er said, "But if he doesn't let him see you, we'll disappear? I remember there is a small corner door coming from the backyard of Jisedo."
Lian Man'er looked around.
"Second sister, that corner gate is on the east side, we are now walking to the west." Xiaoqi said.
"Oh, yes, I remember it too." Lian Man'er coughed dryly. Although she was ten years old, she was a man of two lives. She was a little embarrassed to let people know that her sense of direction was not as good as a little baby of six or seven years old. "I deliberately walked here because I was afraid that Manager Wang would be suspicious."
"Second sister is so smart." Xiaoqi had no idea about Lian Man'er's psychological activities at all. "Second sister, let's go forward and walk through that alley, you should be able to get around."
Xiaoqi pointed to a small alley not far ahead.
Lian Man'er nodded.
The siblings held hands and entered the alley. After walking for a while, they walked around to the east of Jiseido's backyard and saw the small corner door.
The door of Xiaojiaomen is closed.
"Second sister, are you going to knock on the door?" Xiaoqi asked in a low voice. I have to say that Xiaoqi is really a smart child.
"Let's go in directly." Lian Man'er said.
Lian Man'er pulled Xiaoqi, gently pushed open the door and walked in, identified the direction, and walked straight towards the room where Wang Youheng usually entertained them.
"Miss Lian San." Manager Wang walked out of the back door of Jishengtang's store and shouted quickly when he saw Lian Man'er.
After being discovered, Lian Man'er had to stop.
"I said that the young master is not here, Miss Lian San, what are you doing?" Manager Wang looked a little angry.
"I just want to see Brother Youheng." Lian Man'er said.
"Brother Youheng, Brother Youheng..." Xiaoqi shouted loudly.
Xiaoqi called out a few times, but did not see Wang Youheng coming out. Lian Man'er thought that Wang Youheng really didn't come back.
Manager Wang was so angry that his nose was irritated.
"You two, what are you doing?"
"Is it Man'er?" Wang Youheng's voice came from the room, "Shopkeeper Wang, please let Man'er come in."
