Xianjin didn't understand what he meant for a moment and was stunned for a moment. After a while, he woke up as if from a dream and suddenly realized. He looked at Qu Qiushi again, who was like a black sesame bun with a thin skin and a large filling - white and soft on the outside, and black and porous on the inside.
Xianjin curled his lips and patted Qu Qiushi on the shoulder, "You are a smart young man, and you have a bright future!"
Qu Qiushi looked sideways and lowered his eyebrows, looking very timid and shy. "I don't want to be praised by you, sister. But although I am new to the Xuancheng Prefecture's medical clinic, I have won the first place in the two monthly examinations. Usually, when other doctors are at a loss for patients, I can cure their illnesses and pains."
Qu Qiushi boasted about his professional skills and his closeness to the public, "Now, in addition to the pulse-taking duties of the Tongzhi and the judge of Xuancheng Prefecture, I also have a lot of patients waiting for me when I sit in Guangji Hall."
Xianjin looked up and took a serious look at Qu Qiushi's straight nose and fair skin, and asked, "Most of the patients waiting are unmarried or married girls and grandmothers, right?"
Qu Qiushi smiled and said, "Sister, you are not telling the truth."
After a while, he added, "There are still many aunts or grandmothers with gray hair."
Xianjin:...
Let’s not discuss whether your medical skills are good or not, but what is certain is that my face must be good.
Xianjin nodded with a smile and walked out.
Qu Qiushi glanced at the sun. It was still very strong in late July. Qu Qiushi took out an oil-paper umbrella from the medicine box and opened it gently.
Xianjin only felt that his eyes were gray and then bright, and the lilac stamens flashing on the oil-paper umbrella were lifelike. After a while, the oil-paper umbrella was propped up above Xianjin's head.
Qu Qiushi turned his eyes and looked at Xian Jin with a smile.
Although he is a year younger than Xianjin, he is already taller than Xianjin - the sixteen-year-old boy has a tall figure, upright manners, a face as white as a spring morning, eyes as black as a starry night, and when he smiles, his delicate and pointed jaw is like a jigsaw puzzle that perfectly matches this midsummer.
"Where are you going, sister?" The young man had just passed the voice change period, and his voice was as crisp as a peach stored in a well.
When someone is looking at you, the most respectful way is to look away.
Xianjin looked at Qu Qiushi earnestly, as serious as a Soviet commissar: "Go to the mulberry paper workshop to check out the materials."
Qu Qiushi looked back at Xianjin earnestly, then looked away after a while, smiling, "Today is the last day of acupuncture for Master Gou, so I've taken a day off. It's better to do it today than today. If you need me to check the pulses of the guys, why don't you take me with you, sister?"
Qu Qiushi's voice softened. "I have been learning medicine from my uncles from the next room since I was a child. Although I have heard that Xuancheng Prefecture has reached the pinnacle of papermaking, I have never seen it once..." The young man's voice was discouraged, like a puppy begging on the roadside. "I heard that when the masters fished out paper, it was very shocking!"
Suo'er's heart softened when she heard this.
Just agree to it!
If you don't agree, I'll wake up in the middle of the night and slap myself!
Xianjin stood there thinking: the accounts of the mulberry paper workshop need to be sorted out slowly, and the annual account office itself is still in her hands - people who like to gamble have lice all over their heads; on the other hand, the group of old guys in the Dengxuan workshop who love to work overtime and are inefficient are difficult to deal with. She can't practice with the two Qius in the Jixi workshop together, right? Then her fierce reputation will spread throughout Xuancheng... The most difficult thing about human resources is to manage old guys.
Although the method proposed by Doctor Qu is a bit damaging, it is very useful.
Xianjin raised his head and said decisively, "Okay, I'll trouble you then."
Qu Qiushi's smile widened, "...I remember there is a yellow croaker noodle shop next to the mulberry paper workshop that sells really good..."
Xianjin didn't even raise his head, "I'm in mourning."
Qu Qiushi's smile faltered. "The yellow croaker noodle shop also has Suzhou-style red soup noodles. We can add egg skin to it, and it will be delicious too."
Xianjin waved his hand casually, turned around and told Suo'er, "... bring Qu Damo from the Jixi workshop with you, and notify Master Li Sanshun and Brother Zheng, and ask Mama Zhang if she wants to go. What's the name of the uncle in the kitchen who gets along well with Mama Zhang?"
"Thursday Uncle."
"Well, ask Uncle Zhou if he wants to go?"
"Rent a mule cart and bring the guys from the mulberry paper workshop to the Dengxuan workshop. Opposite the Dengxuan workshop is the Xuezheng Office, where more people come and go."
This... so many people...
Qu Qiushi was stunned. What about their yellow croaker noodles? Their dinner together in the evening facing the sunset? After dinner, what about their plan to swim in the Longchuan River, release lanterns, and eat candied haws?
Qu Qiushi gently reminded, "Sister, with so many people... we won't have time to eat dinner tonight..."
Xianjin was puzzled, "Yes! There are mothers cooking in the mulberry paper workshop!"
"When the time comes, we'll each get a new bowl, and Mother Zhang will help us get two dishes from the kitchen, and we'll finish them in two bites with rice!"
Xianjin looked up at the sky. It was just past noon, so he could still work for a long time!
He clenched his fists and actively encouraged Qu Qiushi, "Let's continue working after dinner! We are in the city and there is no curfew. We can still work for a while after dark!"
Xianjin thought of something again and spoke rapidly, "Oh! And there are the guys from Xiaocao Village! It takes them a long time to get here, even if they drive a mule cart, it will take two hours. Ask Brother Zheng to run over and ask them to prepare today and come to see the doctor tomorrow!"
In this generation, are you a big shot? You can’t even look down on illness!
With such a ready-made doctor, anyone who doesn’t try his best must be crazy!
Suo'er immediately ran out, but was stopped by Xianjin halfway through, "One more thing! Ask Mr. Huang from the east end of the city to write a big banner!"
