The prescription prescribed by Li Shizhen really worked. After Xu Jin drank a few doses and rested for a day, his symptoms were much relieved, but he still had a slight cough and runny nose. Despite this, Xu Jin still did not dare to take it lightly and stayed in the house every day.

Drink plenty of boiled water, take a leisurely walk in the yard after meals, and occasionally discuss Chinese herbal medicine with the future medicine sage. For example, whether eating Millennium Ginseng and Millennium Polygonum Multiflorum can increase your power for ten years. As a result, Xiao Lizi was despised to the core.

!

During the past few days when Xu Jin was recuperating at home, Xiao Huai and Huang Jin were not idle, especially the eunuch Huang Jin. Yesterday, he sent Jin Yiwei to ride a flying horse to report back. The Yuncheng County granary was in serious deficit, and he had ordered Yuncheng

The county government officials, big and small, took the blame and ransacked the house with great joy, so Xiao Huai was asked to go quickly to deal with the aftermath.

Xiao Huai was worried that Huang Jin would cause trouble. After receiving the report yesterday, he immediately took two hundred Jin Yiwei and rushed to Yuncheng County. However, Eunuch Huang, who was addicted to confiscation of homes, had already left Yuncheng and went straight to neighboring Caozhou to continue his anti-corruption campaign of raiding granaries.

.

Therefore, Xu Jin is now the only one in charge of Fan County. Since the county magistrate and the county magistrate of Fan County have been arrested, and the boss, Bo Zou Qian, has also taken a side job, it is impossible to leave such a large county government without anyone to take care of it.

Moreover, there were still tens of thousands of refugees to manage, so before Xiao Huai left, he ordered Zhang Wensheng, the magistrate of Yanzhou, to temporarily act as county administrator, and Song Chi, the magistrate of Yanzhou, was "taken" by him.

Early that morning, Xu Jin felt much better, his nose was no longer running, but he still had a slight cough. After eating light millet porridge, he stood in the yard and practiced breathing.

"Sir, who taught you this breathing technique?" Li Shizhen asked curiously after Xu Jin finished one round of practice.

Xu Jin smiled and said: "What's wrong with what my brother-in-law taught me?"

Li Shizhen asked: "Then did he teach you how to regulate qi?"

Xu Jin shook his head and said: "That's not the case, it's just how to breathe evenly, tap your teeth, and swallow!"

Li Shizhen suddenly said: "It's no wonder. There is no way to move qi. If you practice like this, you can only maintain your health and fitness, but you can't become a master in the inner circle."

Xu Jin suddenly became interested and asked: "My second brother-in-law can indeed jump nearly ten feet high and walk on the roof as if he were walking on flat ground. Is this considered a master of the family?"

Li Shizhen nodded and said: "Of course, forget it, ordinary people can't jump so high, unless they are really talented. It seems that your wife and brother have reserved a hand and haven't taught you the method of moving Qi. However, this kind of inner

Kungfu is generally not taught to outsiders, so it would be great if he can teach you to stand and breathe."

Xu Jin couldn't help but wonder, no wonder he didn't feel anything special after practicing for several years. He just thought it was because he was too old. Of course, Xu Jin was not a small-minded person. His brother-in-law didn't teach him the method of moving Qi. It was probably due to family rules.

Probably because of the rumor.

In addition, Xu Jin is not keen on martial arts, and a little practice can be used as a way to maintain health. If he really wants to do like his brothers-in-law, "train in winter and practice in summer," he really can't do it. Besides, there is no need.

Let me ask you, if you have a gun in your hand, no matter how high your martial arts skills are, so what?

As a superior, the key is to use your brains and leave the killing to the people below. Mao Taizu has never touched a gun in his life, so he has not established a new China.

At this time, Li Shizhen made a few movements to imitate animals and said: "This is the five-animal play taught by my father. It can also prolong life. The effect is probably better than your standing posture breathing. Do you want to learn it, sir?"

Xu Jin couldn't help but sweat secretly as he watched Xiao Lizi imitating the actions of a monkey climbing a tree and a bear walking. He thought it was better to forget it. If he did this action at home in the future, he would probably be regarded as a monster by the servants at home.

Xu Jin and Li Shizhen were chatting in the yard. Er Niu came back from outside, followed by a large group of people. It was Zou Zhubo's old wife Fan and six idiots. In addition, there were two people who surprised Xu Jin.

, turned out to be Zhao Quan and the mixed-race girl Xue Bingxin.

A few days ago, Xu Jin asked Jin Baihu to take fifty taels of silver and send it to Fan, and help with Zou Zhubo's funeral. Fan expressed that he wanted to thank Xu Jin in person. Xu Jin's cold is almost better today.

, simply let Er Niu take Fan and the six idiots over to the house to sit and play.

Xu Jin admired Zou Qian from the bottom of his heart for an upright official like Zou Qian who would rather suffer poverty than be greedy for a cent. He was willing to provide help as much as he could.

Mrs. Fan is about forty years old. She wears a Jingchai cloth skirt. She is dressed very simply, but the clothes are washed very clean. Her bun is tied up with a white cloth. Her skin is yellow and bluish, and she is as thin as Master Zou Bo. She is holding a

The vegetable basket had a quiet and kind demeanor, and six young people who looked like they were mentally retarded gathered behind her like a group of chickens, looking at Xu Jin with curious eyes.

Mrs. Fan saluted Xu Jinfu: "Ms. Zou Fan, a civilian woman, would like to send my regards to the imperial envoy."

Fan's attitude is neither humble nor arrogant. Judging from his words and deeds, it is obvious that he has received a good family education.

"Mrs. Zou, there is no need to be polite!" Xu Jin said with a smile.

"I have been helped by Mr. Xu these days, but I have nothing to offer in return. These fresh mushrooms were picked by a few idiots in the family and given to Mr. Xu for a taste. I hope Mr. Xu will not dislike them!

"After Mrs. Fan finished speaking, she handed the vegetable basket she was carrying to Xu Jin.

Xu Jin was originally wondering what mushrooms were. He took it and saw that it was a basket of mushrooms. He smiled and said, "Mrs. Zou is interested. Thank you, boys. Did you pick these mushrooms? You are really capable!"

The six idiots immediately beamed when they heard this. They crowded forward and surrounded Xu Jin. They pointed at the mushrooms in the basket and said, "Brother, the biggest mushroom was picked by Lao San. This is the third mushroom."

I picked the second largest one..."

Xu Jin smiled and listened patiently to the six idiots' stories. From time to time, he gave a thumbs up and praised them, which made the six idiots dance with joy. Because except for his parents and Sister Xue, almost no one would talk to them patiently like this.

chat.

Fan was originally worried that Xu Jin would be bored, but she couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. She stood by and watched with a smile, and her eye circles turned slightly red without realizing it.

Fan and Zou are cousins. They were childhood sweethearts, and they even got married when they grew up. Although their married life was poor, it was also sweet and happy. Unfortunately, the two sons they gave birth to were both idiots.

, seeking medical advice from various sources is of no use.

Despite this, they were their own flesh and blood. The couple still loved their two idiot sons. Later, they adopted four abandoned children with the same IQ, making the family's life even more difficult.

Originally, as Zou Zhubo, as long as he was willing to make some money in the government, life at home would not be so difficult, but he was a proud person at heart and insisted on not being greedy. Although he was poor, he was a spiritual aristocrat.

Mrs. Fan has never complained about her husband. Instead, she is proud of her husband's integrity and persistence. However, when she learned that her husband had performed a caesarean section in front of the refugees to prove his innocence, she would rather her husband did not have that kind of pride, at least then he would not do the caesarean section.

Crazy behavior comes.

Zhao Quan watched Xu Jin squatting on the ground, seriously discussing some mentally retarded and ridiculous issues with six idiots. His mood was complicated and weird. Is a guy like this worthy of becoming his strong enemy?

However, Xue Bingxin, who was next to her, looked at the six dancing idiots with a gentle look on her face. When her eyes occasionally glanced at Xu Jin, her eyes were complicated and blank, and suddenly, she burst into laughter.

It turned out that Xu Jingang told the six idiots a story about "playing beans". It said that a man went to the woods to pick mushrooms and met a rabbit, so he asked the rabbit what he usually did.

The rabbit replied: Eat grass, sleep, and play beans.

The man met the second rabbit and asked the same question.

The second rabbit replied: Eat grass, sleep, and play beans.

When he met the third rabbit, the rabbit replied: Eat grass and sleep.

So the man asked curiously: Why don't you hit Doudou?

As a result, the third rabbit replied: Go away, I am Doudou.

The six idiots understood such a simple and childlike joke, and they all burst into laughter. The mixed-race girl couldn't help but laugh out loud, as if the spring breeze was thawing.

Xu Jin subconsciously glanced up. The smile of this frost-like girl was really pleasing to the eye. When Xue Bingxin saw Xu Jin looking at her, she immediately stopped smiling and returned to her cold expression, but she was obviously a little embarrassed.

Zhao Quan furrowed his sharp eyebrows imperceptibly, took the opportunity to clasp his fists and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Brother Xu to be so witty!"

Xu Jin stood up, smiled and returned the courtesy, saying: "I have neglected Brother Zhao and Mrs. Zhao. I wonder if you two have come to give us any advice?"

Zhao Quan said with a smile: "Junior sister Xue knows Zou Da and the others. I just happened to meet Brother Erniu on the street and brought them here. After asking, it turned out that they were visiting Brother Xu's house, so I made an impromptu visit.

If you're interested, come and visit Brother Xu."

Zhao Quan did not lie. Xue Bingxin did know the six idiots. Ever since Master Zou Bo had a caesarean section, Xue Bingxin would bring some food to visit Mrs. Fan in the past few days.

However, even if he didn't meet Fan and others today, Zhao Quan was still going to "visit" Xu Jin. Firstly, he wanted to test the reality, and secondly, he wanted to see if there was any chance to kill Xu Jin, his future "strong enemy". Uncle Master
