As the saying goes, when a book is put to use, it will be less regrettable. It is not difficult to understand things until they have been through. The ancients were honest and did not deceive.
Although Shangguan Beicang volunteered to follow Gongsun Yi to help, when he actually arrived at the place, he didn't know anyone from the prescription to the medicinal materials, so he could only watch the other person doing things.
It's no wonder that he's a medical practitioner. He's just a newbie in the world of medicine. This is normal.
Gongsun Yi saw the other party's embarrassment, and he was kind-hearted. Before using the medicine, he even explained it to Shangguan Beicang, which opened his eyes.
After the medicinal materials were put into the furnace, the next step was to care and adjust the heat. Shangguan Beicang was very excited at the beginning, but soon became drowsy. Without him, this step was really boring. Soon, he said goodbye.
Gongsun Yi did not deliberately restrain him, nor did he have any opinions on Shangguan Beicang's giving up halfway. There are many young knights in the world, but there are only a few who can be called heroes.
Gongsun Yi had seen many young people in his life, and there were a few who were outstanding. Unfortunately, most of them were mediocre. The young master of the Shangguan family in front of him was just one of them, so it was not surprising.
After Shangguan Beicang said goodbye and left the pharmacy, he asked the Gongsun tribesman who was leading the way that he wanted to go shopping on his own. The latter, of course, reminded him of a few special places that were not allowed and then left.
Shangguan Beicang was wandering around boredly. The layout of the courtyard of the Gongsun family was not much different from his own, but it soon became boring to him.
When he was feeling bored, Shangguan Beicang suddenly heard a sigh coming from the pavilion in front of him. He followed the sound and saw a beautiful woman coming into view. It was Gongsun Yao, the eldest daughter of the Gongsun family.
Shangguan Beicang originally wanted to see no evil and hear no evil, but he had already attracted the other party's attention. Gongsun Yao's gaze was so breathtakingly beautiful that he almost lost his composure.
"I've met Miss Gongsun." Shangguan Beicang couldn't hide, so he had to bite the bullet and step forward to greet her.
"Young Master Shangguan," Gongsun Yao stood up and gave a blessing, then turned half sideways to hide half of her sorrow, with a pretending to be strong smile on her lips, she said warmly: "I am married, young master, you should call me Mrs. Lu."
For some reason, Shangguan Beicang felt an unconcealable regret in his heart when he once again realized that the charming and beautiful woman in front of him was already married.
Especially after hearing that the other party's husband was bedridden and unable to get out of bed all year round, Shangguan Beicang's regret became even stronger.
When he realized his thoughts, even he was surprised. But once he saw Gongsun Yao's sad eyes, the inexplicable throbbing in his heart became even more unbearable.
"Where are you going, young master?" Gongsun Yao seemed not to notice Shangguan Beicang's rude look, and she spoke softly with a gentle voice.
"Oh, I, this is..." After Shangguan Beicang woke up, his cheeks turned red and he was incoherent for a moment. His hands moved up and down unconsciously, as if he was explaining something.
This funny scene made Gongsun Yao burst into laughter. She bent down with a smile, a blush fluttered on her cheeks, and her eyes sparkled, as if the melting ice and snow in the river warmed the heart, and like the clear spring in the mountain with flying flowers in February intoxicating the eyes.
.
Shangguan Beicang was stunned on the spot. At this moment, he had exhausted all his life's knowledge and could not describe the beauty of the person in front of him. At the same time, he could not understand where the burning flame in his heart came from.
Maybe he would have to grow up to understand that this flame originated from jealousy. Shangguan Beicang was jealous of someone he had never met. He couldn't imagine what kind of talent was worthy of a woman like Gongsun Yao.
Anyway, the guy who has been bedridden for a long time is definitely not worthy.
"Young master is new here, why don't you let me lead you around?" Gongsun Yao extended the invitation, and Shangguan Beicang almost immediately agreed in a loud voice. After he realized what he was doing, he turned red with shame for his impatience.
The two of them walked left and right on the gravel road in the courtyard. The maid who followed them five or six steps away had a very serious look and her eyes were lowered and she kept her mouth shut. She didn't make any sound. It gave Shangguan Beicang the feeling that the two of them were alone.
This gave him a feeling of elation. The unknown flowers planted on both sides of the courtyard seemed to be sweet-scented osmanthus. The fragrance was fragrant, light but not overpowering, giving people a feeling of being intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.
It is human nature for a gentle lady to be eager to show off her temper to a gentleman. However, Gongsun Yao has already married, and if Shangguan Beicang behaves too eagerly, it may not be in line with etiquette.
Gradually, Shangguan Beicang recovered from the confusion when they first met. Although he was naughty, he had read books and understood etiquette. In addition, he often required himself to be chivalrous, so naturally he would not do such shameless things.
thing.
But after all, he was only a half-grown boy. Gongsun Yao's faint sigh made Shangguan Beicang's heart feel like a fire was burning, and he couldn't care less about etiquette, law, and morality.
"Girl... ahem, Mrs. Lu seems to be worried about something?" Shangguan Beicang showed unprecedented enthusiasm. He tried his best to show his capable side and would share the other person's worries when he opened his mouth.
"I may speak softly, but if Madam encounters any difficulties, I will definitely help you with all my strength!"
Shangguan Beicang, who was patting his chest in assurance, seemed to feel that such an attitude was a bit inappropriate for the two people they met for the first time, so he went on to add extravagance: "Madam, don't worry, the Gongsun family has been kind to my master, and it is natural that they should repay their kindness."
, well - of course."
Shangguan Beicang didn't know that he looked like one of those libertines who strive to be courteous to their sweethearts. Perhaps because of his outstanding family background, he may have a bit more of a chivalrous filter in the eyes of others, but the essence is quite different.
Gongsun Yao was surprised at first, and then expressed her refusal tactfully. She seemed to be aware of Shangguan Beicang's overly warm intentions, so she said goodbye as if to avoid suspicion.
But before she left, she turned around and looked back with a sorrowful look, which completely left a hazy shadow in Shangguan Beicang's heart.
Looking at the beautiful figure going away, Shangguan Beicang felt a sense of loss in his heart. Only the scent of osmanthus lingering on the tip of his nose made him linger.
After coming back to his senses, Shangguan Beicang was surprised to find out what a bold thing he had done.
He returned to the guest house with his dizzy head, and when faced with his mother's questions, he didn't even know what to ask.
"Medicine? What medicine? Oh, by the way, mother, have you delivered the medicine for Master?" Shangguan Beicang looked as if he had just woken up from a dream.
"Didn't you go look at the medicine?" Le Zhili glanced at him strangely, then turned her gaze to Wen Chenyang, who was sleeping quietly on the bed, with a hint of relaxation in her tone: "Gongsun is worthy.
For all the medical experts, Brother Wen got much better after taking the medicine."
"That's good." Shangguan Beicang also breathed a sigh of relief. He was so satisfied with Gongsun Yao's frail and pitiful look with sad eyes that he almost forgot about the business.
