Chapter 34
It turned out that the task of spending a night in Luanfengang was completed. Qiu Wuhen was surprised and happy, and quickly asked Yao Gulu in his mind: "Where is the quilt?"
The medicine gourd shook twice, and another line of words appeared:
It has been delivered to your home.
Wow, is this a perfect service?
Qiu Wuhen found that Xia Houtian's treatment plan in his mind was still gray in terms of syndrome differentiation and treatment methods, without any results, and he said: "Have you not unlocked the treatment method yet?"
Medicine gourd appears:
It will appear when it should appear.
"Is the result of Xia Houtian's treatment related to this case?"
This time Yao Gulu didn't say anything and remained silent.
The snow stopped at some point, and the ground was all white. The cow water tank was shivering with cold, and he trembled and said to Qiu Wuhen: "Master, let's go back, it's so cold!"
"I told you that I won't let you follow me, but you insist on following me. Why do you follow the master if you can't bear the hardship?"
Qiu Wuhen said to the cow water tank pretending to be stern, but he started to move forward. In fact, he felt quite cold, but he had to show his dignity as a master.
The cow water tank thought that the master was angry, so he shrank his neck and said carefully: "I was wrong, I am not afraid of the cold anymore, I want to follow the master."
"Okay then, let's go."
Qiu Wuhen handed the package containing the dead body's bones to the cow water vat and warned, "Be careful, don't break it."
Niu Shui Tank agreed and took it. Although it was just a bone, it was still quite heavy. Fortunately, the fat man like Niu Shui Tank was quite strong, so he didn't feel tired after carrying it on his shoulders.
The cow water tank wanted to ask what was in the package, but the master told him not to ask random questions the first two times, so he swallowed his words abruptly.
Qiu Wuhen took the cow water tank all the way and arrived at Yunduan County.
It was already broad daylight and the city gate tower was open.
However, there were not many people leaving the city at the moment, because it was so early in the morning and the weather was freezing cold, so no one wanted to go out unless absolutely necessary.
There were no soldiers guarding the city at the gate, and there was no sign of them. There was only smoke coming from a nearby house, and everyone must have been hiding inside to warm themselves up.
After driving all night, although it has not snowed anymore, the temperature after the snow is even lower. I am carrying the bag of bones in the cow water tank, and I am relatively fat, but I am still sweating slightly, but my little face is frozen
I was bruised and bruised, and my nose kept sniffing.
Qiu Wuhen was also so cold that his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, his nose was tingling, and there was no toilet paper. It was really troublesome in ancient times. Things that today's society has become accustomed to did not exist in ancient times. If you were rich, you would first invent a roll of toilet paper and take it with you.
, you can wipe your nose at any time, otherwise it will be really uncomfortable in the winter.
This was his first time coming to the county town. When he saw the city, there were brick buildings everywhere and bluestone roads. However, the streets were very narrow, barely enough for two carriages to pass side by side. There were many shops on the street, some of which were already open.
, but most of them are still closed, because there are not many people on the street. What is impressive is that the various signboards facing the street seem to be frozen in the cold wind, barely swaying.
Only now did Qiu Wuhen realize that he didn't know where Xiahoutian's family was. He hadn't asked clearly before, but since he was a big family in the county, he would be able to ask.
So he turned to his apprentice Niu Shuitan and said, "Go and ask Master Xiahoutian where he lives."
The cow water tank grinned and said: "No need to ask, I know that his family is one of the most famous wealthy businessmen in Yunduan County. Who doesn't know it? My father even went to their house to kill pigs, and they raised them themselves.
Those who have pigs don’t buy them from outside. They raise them cleanly and won’t eat any messy things.”
As he talked, he went too far. Qiu Wuhen lightly patted the forehead of the cow water tank and said: "Why don't you lead the way? Why are you talking so much nonsense? We have to rush for time. Aren't you already freezing?
Well, there is no fire for roasting until we get to Xiahou’s house!”
Niu Shuitan quickly agreed and led the way.
The two of them walked forward and finally arrived at Xia Houtian's mansion.
This mansion looks pretty good, but it is still worse than the wealthy family that Qiu Wuhen imagined in his mind. The so-called wealthy family in his mind is the kind of super luxurious mansion in Dream of Red Mansions. In comparison, Xiahoutian's
Da Zhai Men can only be considered a well-off family at best.
Niu Shuitan came forward and knocked on the door. A concierge came out and looked at him warily. Niu Shuitan said with a shy belly: "Hurry up and report, my master is here. Qiu Wuhen, a famous doctor in Mingshan Village, is here to treat you today."
Your master treats illnesses."
When the porter heard this, he immediately burst into laughter, bowed and bowed repeatedly and said: "Oh, the master has already told me, and I have been waiting for you. He also said that if he doesn't come by noon, he will send someone to invite him.
Well, thank you for your hard work, doctor, please come in quickly."
The cow water tank quickly moved aside and let Qiu Wuhen in, while Qiu Wuhen walked forward with a thorny step. The layout of Xiahoutian's courtyard is quite good, but it is not as good as the one in the movie "Dream of Red Mansions".
It's far from the same level. He kept commenting in his mind as he walked.
The concierge led the way, and another girl got the news and hurriedly called the housekeeper to greet her.
Soon the butler rushed over and said with great surprise: "Mr. Qiu, you are here. Please come this way."
Qiu Wuhen nodded and followed him all the way to the inner house.
The housekeeper said: "Our master took your medicine yesterday and felt much better. It's just that the fever has not gone away, but it is much better than before. He can talk, but he still can't eat. His stomach still hurts, but it's not as severe as before.
"You are really amazing. Yesterday's medicine was quite effective. Can you cure our master's illness today?"
Qiu Wuhen glanced at him very dissatisfied and said, "Have you ever seen any doctor who can cure an illness immediately with just one or two doses of medicine? Why don't you go to the City God's Temple and ask the Bodhisattva for an elixir or something? I'll
It can’t be done.”
Seeing Qiu Wuhen standing there and not leaving, the housekeeper had no choice but to give him a small mouth, cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry, I was too anxious. There are many of you, Mr. Qiu, please be more considerate. Please come this way."
Qiu Wuhen snorted, and then followed him to the house of the inner house master. Everyone else had already avoided it, and only two old ladies were waiting nearby.
After entering the house, there was a middle-aged woman wiping tears next to the bed. The official quickly introduced: "This is Mrs. Xia."
Mrs. Xiahou wiped her tears, stood up and gave a blessing to Qiu Wuhen, and complained: "Mr. doctor, what kind of disease do you think our master has? Why is it not cured? I have invited all the doctors in Yunduan County.
Even the famous doctors from Wenjiang Prefecture were invited, but they couldn't cure it. They also invited a witch who performs magic tricks, a Taoist priest who catches ghosts and exorcises evil spirits, a monk who chants sutras and does a dojo, and even a blind man who tells fortunes. He also invited three foxy girls.
My aunts have all driven me away, but my illness has not healed yet, but has become worse. What do you think is going on?"
Alas, behind every successful man, there is a capable woman.
Qiu Wuhen waved his hand and said: "Okay, I understand, please get out of the way and don't block the road."
Mrs. Xiahou did not expect that the doctor could be so arrogant and speak so rudely, so she quickly stepped aside with a blushing face, looking a little unhappy.
The housekeeper whispered: "Madam, don't mind. This doctor has a weird temper, but he is very capable. The medicines used by so many doctors before were of no use at all. He gave me the medicine once yesterday, and he felt much better."
Already."
