23, Chapter 23, the only daughter who recruits

After seeing her out of the corner of his eye, Chu Yunli suddenly became concerned. When he realized that the person in front of him was not Shen Qiuyan, he suddenly laughed.

Because of the similarity between her and Shen Qiuyan, Chu Yunli looked at her carefully and realized that the reason why they felt similar was probably because of her clothes besides their appearance.

This woman was dressed in plain clothes, with almost no jewelry on her body, and her hair was only tied with plain ribbons, and she looked quite old-fashioned. When Shen Qiuyan was still in Zhou Mansion, she dressed like this most of the time. In fact, Father Zhou would not treat her harshly, but Shen Qiuyan liked such plain colors. Over time, when the servants of the Zhou family sent fabrics, they would only send plain colors to her.

But the woman in front of her is obviously not. Although the clothes she wears are made of silk and satin, they are the cheapest ones. The cuffs are still frayed and the wrists are exposed. It looks like they are old clothes made in the past and are already a bit ill-fitting. Already.

Probably aware of Chu Yunli's gaze, the woman was a little shy. The official is in charge

Chu Yunli didn't expect that she would come to invite him again. Just now, this woman's voluptuous body was revealed. The midges and oysters are as good as the rakes and the slugs are the slugs and the guillotines are the culprits.

Hearing this, the woman was not surprised and said apologetically, "I can't afford to hire an old doctor either."

It implies that she can't afford to hire a capable doctor. It's obvious that she is short of money.

Chu Yunli looked at her and Shen Qiuyan's faces, which became more and more similar. I believed that anyone who had seen these two people would think that they were somewhat related. He then asked, "What is your patient's disease? Is it serious?"

The woman hurriedly said, "My mother lost her footing when she was pouring water out of the laundry and fell. Her leg was injured and she couldn't move..."

Chu Yunli can still treat external injuries, as well as simple wind and cold, but she probably can't cure that old disease. Now she has more confidence, not for the speculation, just to hone her medical skills, she should go here. He immediately signaled Chunyu to get the medicine box and said, "I'll let you go and have a look. If I can't cure it, I'll ask my master to look at it."

The woman's face suddenly filled with joy, "Thank you doctor."

Soon, Feng Shao'an set up a carriage and the group got on and left the city directly.

The woman lives in Wucun outside the city, which is not far away, but if Chu Yunli is a girl, she probably won't be willing to make this trip without someone to accompany her.

The woman saw the carriage that was 90% new, and looked at Chun Yu, who was obviously dressed as a maid, helping to carry the medicine box. She probably guessed that Chu Yunli was not a doctor anymore, so she looked apologetic and said, "Doctor, please come with me." .”

This girl has always been polite and generous since she started greeting her. She is much better than Shen Qiuyan who is inexplicable. Anyway, Chu Yunli didn't feel bad about her because she looked similar to Shen Qiuyan.

As expected, Wucun was not far away. A quarter of an hour later, they left the city, and two quarters later, the carriage had stopped at the woman's signal.

Wucun is quite large, and there are many exquisite houses in it. It can be seen that there are wealthy families in the village, but this woman lives in the courtyard at the corner of Wucun. The house is old and there are not many furnishings in the courtyard, but it is clean. Chu Yunli glanced around casually, and followed the worried woman into the door, while Feng Shaoan stayed in the yard.

The woman on the bed was probably in her thirties, and her eyebrows and eyes were quite similar to Shen Qiuyan's. She had a delicate appearance, but her face was sallow, and there were some fine lines at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, adding a bit of weakness. Her face was pale at this time, and she gasped in pain.

"Mom, the doctor is here." The woman took a few steps over and asked eagerly, "Does it still hurt?"

Chu Yunli stepped forward and after careful inspection, he found that the woman had injured her leg bone. She immediately helped set the bone, applied medicine, and prepared several medicines. This was one of the few times that she practiced medicine by herself, from techniques to medicinal materials.

They were all very cautious, and there were faint beads of sweat on the tips of their noses.

After preparing the medicinal ingredients and carefully instructing the woman, she relaxed slightly, picked up the tea poured on the table and took a sip.

The woman clutched the medicine bag tightly, with an apologetic look on her face, "Doctor, how much should I pay you for the consultation and medicine? I may not be able to pay too much... but I think it is what I owe you. My mother and I help the people in the village.

Starch clothes for a living, if you have clothes..." At the end of her sentence, her voice became lower and lower, obviously feeling that her proposal had been thoroughly rejected.

Chu Yunli didn't answer this, looked at the woman on the bed, looked at her again, and asked seriously, "I would like to ask, what is your mother's last name?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted and introduced, "My mother's surname is Shen. Just call me Siyan."

Chu Yunli was moved in her heart. The surname Shen plus Si Yan seemed to be related to Gu Yan.

The only women in Huanxi town with a child named Shen who are in their thirties are Shen Qiuyan and her daughter, but that doesn't mean there aren't other places.

"That's it." Chu Yunli sighed and said tentatively, "A few days ago, I heard that Mr. Gu, the county examiner from the capital, is looking for a woman in her thirties who might be able to take care of a child..."

With a "bang", the drinking bowl in the woman's hand on the bed slipped and rolled from the bed to the ground. "Is this really happening?"

Chu Yunli nodded and was secretly stunned. He didn't know what went wrong in this matter. The person in front of him looked very similar to the person Gu Yan was looking for. If he really didn't know him, he wouldn't have made such a big fuss.

Chu Yunli was curious, "Does Madam know Mr. Gu?"

"We know each other, why don't we know each other!" The woman's tears fell down. It was so painful when her bones were being set, and she just gritted her teeth. Although she didn't cry loudly now, her sobbing for no reason made people feel that she was very sad at this time.

.

After a while, Shen Shenyan's mother wiped away her tears and said, "I'm sorry, I lost my temper. Thank you to the doctor for informing me about this. The medicine I owe today will be sent to the hospital in person."

Chu Yunli waved her hand, "As long as it works, madam, take good care of your health. We'll talk about the money later." She was actually in a good mood. It seemed that Shen Shenyan was more sensible than Shen Qiuyan. When the time came... Anyway, Shen Qiuyan was disgusted with her more than once.

If she is not having a good time, she will be happy.

Five days later, Gu Yan took Shen Qiuyan, who had improved, and his party into the city. There was already a mother and daughter waiting at the door of the post house. Chu Yunli heard about it later. It is said that Gu Yan was very excited at that time and immediately asked her to leave.

Welcomed into the post house.

Chunyu said vividly, "Girl, you don't know, Master Gu's eyes were all red at that time, and he pulled the woman to call her Yun Niang. The woman also cried, almost fainting from crying, Master Gu quickly asked someone to take them in."

Although Chu Yunli had long guessed that the woman was related to Gu Yan, how did Shen Qiuyan and her daughter come here? Gu Yan looked for someone, and his feelings for the woman named Shen were unusual. Could this be true?

You know, Shen Qiuyan and his wife wanted to take the county examination because Wu Ming wanted to take the county examination. In order to avoid suspicion, Gu Yan only found a courtyard to accommodate the two of them. Until now, they have never entered a post house that is only for officials.

She was just wondering when the little girl outside reported that Master Gu was visiting.
