Because he was too tired, after paying the room fee for one month, Zhu Ping'an ordered a side dish and two steamed buns, ate them hastily, took a hot bath in a wooden bucket, and went to bed early to rest.
Zhu Ping'an was sleeping soundly here, but he didn't know that his name had been heard in a small area near the inn.
Scholars and students all pay attention to drinking wine, reciting poems, and writing poems. When we were having dinner in the lobby, I don’t know who read the poem "Once Bitten by a Snake Everywhere" written by Zhu Pingan in Shili Changting in a mocking tone.
Poems about singing birds, and then the entire lobby burst into laughter. Someone accidentally said that the talented man who was bitten by a snake and heard the singing of birds was sleeping soundly in the woodshed, and the lobby was filled with laughter. Zhu Pingan's name was just like this near the guest station.
spread within a small area.
Zhu Ping'an, who was sleeping soundly, just didn't know. Of course, even if he knew, he would definitely laugh it off.
In the early morning of the next day, white frost and mist filled Huaining County. The rising sun had not yet risen, but a faint morning glow appeared in the eastern sky.
The students who had been drinking and composing poems all night were now immersed in sleep, but the woodshed of the inn had been pushed open. Zhu Pingan, wearing a blue shirt and robe, with a schoolbag slung across his body, felt refreshed and energetic, holding hands
He took a black board and walked out, closed the door and walked out.
After leaving the inn, there were few pedestrians outside, and Huaining County had a unique flavor in the frost and mist.
The bluestone slabs are blooming with frost flowers, and the cold branches are stained with black and white frost. It is simply an ink landscape painting.
In ancient times, luck was emphasized. Most county towns were located near mountains and rivers, and Huaining County was no exception. It relied on a river called Pangjiang River, and the river water was introduced into the city through the moat and turned back and forth.
Zhu Pingan walked towards the river on the bluestone slabs. There were boats cruising in the river in the morning light. The beautiful Pangjiang River looked particularly beautiful and mysterious under the morning fog.
Zhu Ping'an walked to the riverside paved with bluestones, found two adjacent bluestones, placed the black wooden board on one of the higher bluestones, lifted up his robe and sat on the low bluestone, stepping across from the diagonal
I took out the writing brush and bamboo tube from my cloth bag one after another, and started the required classes every morning.
During winter training and summer training, Zhu Ping'an dipped his hands in clear water and splashed ink on the river bank filled with frost and mist...
After the fog dissipated and the sun rose, Zhu Pingan put away his brush and black board, and took out a copy of "Spring and Autumn" with Zhu Xi's annotations from his schoolbag, and read it with relish. Zhu Xi is a very interesting person.
There is a serious difference between the appearance and the appearance of a person. Not to mention the bad relationship between him and Su Shi, just look at the fact that on the one hand, he preaches to uphold the principles of nature and destroy human desires, but on the other hand, he has three wives and four concubines and goes to a brothel to have fun.
. However, his understanding of the Four Books and Five Classics is still very high, at least the contemporary rulers and literary scholars agree with it.
"Look, a sour scholar, geez..."
The young girls and young wives who came to the riverside to wash and pound rice in the early morning couldn't help laughing when they saw the young man sitting on the rocks by the river reading a book without realizing that his robe was already wet.
Don't leave the front door and don't step out the second door. This is the ancient requirement for ladies and gentlemen. Ordinary people's homes are not so particular. Of course, the protection of men and women is much stricter than in modern times. Men and women cannot be alone, but now there are so many big girls.
When the young daughter-in-law was together, she was not afraid of anyone gossiping, so she became bolder. Seeing the honest and honest appearance of the young man Zhu Pingan, she couldn't help laughing, and even the bold daughter-in-law teased Zhu Pingan with words.
"The little scholar is reading so seriously, but is he reading a book about men and women fighting?"
"Giggle..." The daughters-in-law passing through the personnel department laughed one by one.
Of course, there were also young girls who had not yet left the court, their faces flushed with shame, and they chased the bold wife to find out what was wrong with her.
Zhu Ping'an was embarrassed by these people. It wasn't that he was embarrassed by the bold wife's words. How could he, who had read countless films in modern times, be embarrassed by such words?
I have the habit of reading in the presence of so many girls and wives, but I am not a monkey in the zoo.
"Morning."
So, Zhu Ping'an collected the poems and books, took the black board and said hello to the girls and wives from a distance, then got up and left.
"Yeah, don't go, you haven't answered yet, haven't you?"
A woman's laughter came from behind.
After the frost and fog dissipated, Zhu Pingan's impression of Huaining County was hazy, with moist bluestone roads, a clear river passing through the city, and a city wall made of blue bricks and stones standing in the distance, full of poetry.
Following an alluring aroma, Zhu Ping'an found a snack on the street and ordered a bowl of tofu pudding and two pot stickers. The store gave him a small plate of homemade pickled side dishes, which he ate deliciously.
The bean curd is sprinkled with a pinch of coriander and topped with the store's secret seasoning, which looks delicious and delicious; the pot stickers are full of the meaty aroma of pork, and the side dishes are also crisp and refreshing, and taste great.
The only flaw is that the store owner is not a tofu beauty, but an aunt.
By the way, I have often seen scenes in modern novels where the hero meets a bean curd beauty, a wine selling beauty, or even a pork beauty. How come I haven’t encountered this in more than eight years of Ming Dynasty?
Although he was regretful, Zhu Pingan still left with a hungry stomach.
After Zhu Ping'an had eaten and drank enough, he looked for a few passers-by, asked for directions, and then turned left and right along the street.
On the way, I spent a penny to buy a pack of good snacks and asked the shopkeeper to wrap them in red paper. I also spent money at another shop to buy some fruits, put them in a bamboo basket, and walked in the direction pointed by passers-by.
After walking and searching for about half an hour, Zhu Ping'an arrived at his destination - Baicaotang.
This is a large medicine shop, more than five times larger than the one in Kaoshan Town. There are many people coming and going in the medicine hall, and there are six doctors sitting in the hall alone.
Zhu Ping'an walked in carrying fruit snacks, and an apprentice from the medicine hall came over and asked, "I dare to ask you, sir, but do you want to consult a doctor?"
Zhu Ping'an shook his head, bowed and replied, "No, I am from Xiahe Village in Kaoshan Town. Eight years ago, I was lucky enough to be rejuvenated by the miracle doctor Hu. I saved my life. My parents have been working in the fields all day and are unable to come here to express their gratitude. I deeply feel that
It's a pity that today I came here to express my gratitude to Dr. Hu."
The apprentice thought for a moment and said to Zhu Ping'an, "Then wait a moment and I'll ask my mentor."
It turned out that this apprentice was actually the apprentice of Dr. Hu. After saying this, the apprentice walked to the back of the medicine hall. After about a quarter of an hour, the apprentice returned.
"I have kept you waiting for a long time. My teacher said that he did not remember this matter and asked you not to take it to heart." After the apprentice came back, he told the old miracle doctor Hu, and added, "In fact, my teacher has saved countless people, and this kind of situation has also happened to him.
I’ve done it many times, young master, don’t take it to heart. Please take the things back home, my mentor never accepts gifts.”
Zhu Pingan stood there thinking for a long time, took out a ten-tael silver note from his sleeve, and said, "Old Hu's demeanor as a miracle doctor is admirable, but I am also uneasy. So, this bank note will be
Let me put it in the medicine hall to pay for the patients who have no money to buy medicine. Although it is small, it is my sincerity."
The apprentice did not dare to make the decision, so he went to report it to his mentor. After a while, he came back and told Zhu Ping'an that his mentor had agreed.
The miracle doctor who never accepts gifts can accept this meager ten taels of silver for those who have no money to treat their illnesses.
What a miracle doctor who is dedicated to helping the world.
Zhu Ping'an admired Dr. Hu's medical ethics greatly. If modern hospitals could have one-tenth of Dr. Hu's medical ethics, the doctor-patient relationship would not be so tense.
