Chapter 927 Extra Story: Wang Hongge and Xue Xi (4)
Chapter 927 Extra: Wang Hongge and Xue Xi (4)
The Yaolu is located at the outermost part of the town, with two small shops. There is a 12 or 13 or 14 year old farmer boy. The two of them are wearing uniform coarse cloth blue clothes and sitting at the door cutting medicine.
Another woman, with a delicate back, was helping a injured peasant woman treat the wound.
"...This is an ordinary cold white boil. If you suffer from external injuries, you must use this cold white boiled water to clean the wound and do not leave any mud or other debris." She said to the peasant woman seriously.
The peasant woman's wound was not fresh, but for several days, and now it has become suppurated and swollen.
She learned the "surgery first aid" taught by Cai Yuan, and repeatedly washed the ulcerated wound with cold boiled water; put a basin of water mixed with salt and sugar next to it, and then used it to clean the knife.
A sharp knife scraped off the festered meat little by little.
Fortunately, the wound is not big, and the ulcerated area is only the size of a plum, so it is easy to deal with.
If it continues to rot, I am afraid that this leg will not be able to be taken.
Wang Hongge accompanied the little emperor out for an outing, and the master and apprentice dressed up in ordinary costumes, and only brought four top experts.
Passing here, Wang Hongge saw the small medicine house at a glance, which read: "Xue's Medicine House".
He felt a sudden sudden heart, and hurriedly stopped, stood on the other side of the official road, and indeed saw her back.
When she finished her work and stood up and was about to wash her hands, she paused slightly when she saw him.
She ordered her two disciples to deal with the aftermath, wiped her hands and walked towards the official road.
She saluted her body.
Wang Hongge quickly returned the gift.
Looking at her carefully, she seemed to have no change, but there was a little upward at the end of her eyes. This was a manifestation of a person's confidence, which made her look a little more charming.
"This is my student." He said to Xue Xi.
Xue Xi smiled and nodded: "I won't be polite in the wilderness, so I won't be able to blame me."
If someone is seen by someone who is interested and causes trouble, it will be too troublesome. After all, the emperor has only brought so many people around him.
Under the guidance of Wang Hongge, Xiu Chao was an ambitious and polite child. He was very grateful to his mother, respectful to the court affairs, and was not very rebellious.
His mentality is very peaceful, so he is very polite to deal with people.
He knew that Xue Xi was one of his aunts, but she had never entered the palace and had seen her for the first time. However, her mother and great-grandmother mentioned her and said that the teacher loved her very much.
"Auntie, you're welcome. It's my nephew who gave you a greeting." Xiu Chao said, "When you leave the court, there is no distinction between the emperor and the common people. I'm just an ordinary nephew."
Xue Xi smiled shyly.
Wang Hongge said again: "Xiuchao, I'll say a few words to your aunt, you go to the Yaolu to have a cup of tea and wait for me."
It is good to practice the Tao of the Court.
Xiao Yaotong gave them tea, chatted with Xiuchao, and asked whether the knife he was wearing was real or fake, and whether the ruby on it was real or fake.
Xiu Chao seemed to enjoy being questioned and explained it to the two little medicine boys one by one.
Xue Xi and Wang Hongge stood under the tree, and the shade spread across them. The slightly hanging branches swayed gently above their heads, and in the breeze, the warmth of mid-spring was the warmth of mid-spring.
"...Why don't you tell me when you come back?" Wang Hongge asked.
Xue Xi: "The person who usually delivers letters has not been there for a long time. I didn't see him two months before leaving, so I couldn't deliver the letter."
Wang Hongge narrowed his eyes, suspected that she had retreated again, and asked: "Why don't you look for me when you are back?"
"This medicine house belongs to the eldest brother of the Chen family. He is going south. He is in a hurry. I took over the medicine house the next day after I came back. I am busy until now, but it is still in a mess.
Not only do you have to take care of this medicine house, but you also have to take care of the two children of the Chen family, so you can't take care of who you want to visit," Xue Xi explained again.
Wang Hongge thinks these are excuses.
She may not want to look for him on his own initiative.
"...How have you learned after you went there for the past two years?" he asked Xue Xi.
"I learned medicine. If this medicine house only sells some finished medicines, I don't know how to see a doctor. Some simple first aid knowledge was taught to me by Miss Cai Yuan. She is the manager of the Divine Medical Pavilion." Xue Xi said.
Wang Hong Pavilion said oh.
Xue Xi said again: "She married the Ninth Master of the Lu family and got married last spring. However, now the young master of the Lu family is in Chu State for a lot of time, and the Divine Doctor Pavilion is managed in an orderly manner by them."
Wang Hongge likes to listen to her.
She seemed a little nervous, and just found a topic and talked about it all, which made Wang Hongge feel very interesting.
He looked at her.
Xue Xi came back to her senses and asked him what was wrong.
"...Aren't you going to Chu State?" Wang Hongge asked her.
Xue Xi: "It's hard to say. My elder brother became the emperor, so I can still go to the palace to play. Chu State is actually quite interesting."
"Your cousin is the queen mother. You can also go to the palace in Liang Kingdom. Isn't it just as interesting?" Wang Hongge said immediately.
Xue Xi nodded: "That's true."
Seeing that her attitude was fine, she did not contradict or had no sarcastic spirit, Wang Hongge felt much more relieved.
Wang Hongge asked her again when he would go to the city, and he wanted to take her to the market.
"Should I be busy," she said.
After saying that, she smiled at Wang Hongge.
This made Wang Hongge feel infinite warmth in his heart, and he completely believed that she was really busy and didn't care about contacting him, not deliberately avoiding him.
On this day, Xue Xi was destined to be very busy.
Wang Hongge chatted with her for a full hour, and it was not until her legs became a little stiff that Wang Hongge realized his inconsideration.
The city gate was about to be closed, and the town was more than ten miles away from the capital. Wang Hongge had to take the little emperor back quickly, so he had to say goodbye in a hurry.
The next day, he had no time to come to find Xue Xi, but asked Xiao Shutong to send some snacks from the palace to Xue Xi.
What Xue Xi mainly does is to buy herbs and make them by herself, and then sell them in a store. She will also help passers-by see if they are minor problems or do some first aid.
She didn't make money, but wanted to help the nearby medicinal farmers, and she even brought Panax notoginseng back.
She didn't think about opening a pharmacy in the city.
The next day, her sister Xue Qin came to visit her specially.
Xue Qin was full of luxury. The material of the clothes was the latest. The jewelry with rubies on her head and the bracelets on her wrist were also inlaid with rubies.
As soon as she saw Xue Xi, she said to her: "Oh, you are not particular anymore, you are dressed so shabby!"
Xue Xi was indeed a little shabby. When she was doing things, she wore a coarse cloth dress, which was plain and pure without any color; she tied her hair into a bun and fixed it with a jade hairpin.
Apart from that, she has no embellishment.
But when Xue Qin looked at her, she felt that her skin was fair, rosy, tight and smooth; when she looked at her eyes, she was clearly black and white, and she still had a girlish look. She looked younger than Xue Qin and had a very temperament.
Xue Qin was very jealous.
When talking about their respective situations, Xue Qin wanted to brag a few words. However, in front of Xue Xi, she always disdained to disguise and said a few words, and then she started crying.
Xue Qin's marriage is not happy at all.
