Chapter 452: The Little Magistrate
"Then, what about the dozens of families?" Xiao Jiuyue asked. "In a situation like this, the county should also send some disaster relief food or something, right?"
"Yes, I do!" Xiao Fu said, "Tomorrow I'll go see the magistrate of Yuguang County and tell everyone about this."
"After the flood, there will be major disasters and epidemics. Be careful of the plague." Doctor Wang was hungry after making the medicine. He was looking for something to eat when he heard the father and daughter chatting. Originally, Doctor Wang wanted to leave, but when he heard them talking about the flood, he interrupted!
"Master, I made pork intestine noodles. Would you like to try a bowl?" Xiao Jiuyue immediately added a bowl to Doctor Xiao Wang as well. When he poured lots of pork intestines on top, it became the soul of the noodles!
"Oh, I love this!" When Doctor Wang first tasted it, he wondered what was so delicious about the pig intestines. But after actually eating it, Doctor Wang completely fell in love with the pig intestines!
Whether it's stir-fried or stewed, they're all his favorites.
Doctor Wang was busy eating noodles with a generous amount of pig intestines as topping. In one word, delicious!
Xiao Fu also loves pig intestines. Now he is eating pig intestine noodles with his head focused on eating, and has no intention of talking.
After eating and drinking, Xiao Fu asked, "Little Doctor Wang, may I ask if there is any way to prevent this epidemic?"
"Yes." Doctor Wang touched his swollen belly and said, "I can prescribe some medicine. I can boil a large pot and let the people eat it. It can prevent the disease. But the most important thing is to clear the silt and sprinkle the medicine on the flooded areas."
"Okay, tell me what you need, and I'll do it tomorrow." Xiao Fu said, looking at Xiao Jiuyue and said, "Yuer, let's stay in Yuguang County for two or three days. It won't delay us from getting home for the Mid-Autumn Festival."
"Dad, I support you." Xiao Jiuyue nodded in agreement.
The next day, Xiao Jiuyue started making medicine with Doctor Xiao Wang. In addition to the medicine for consumption, the most important thing was to clean the places where people had passed by and polluted by the flood. Combining her memories from later generations, she followed Doctor Xiao Wang and started making medicine spray bottles.
"County magistrate, what a crap county magistrate." Xiao Fu went home angrily.
"Dad, where's that expressionless Shangshu gone?" Xiao Jiuyue came forward, pouring tea to comfort him, saying, "Isn't it just that they didn't give me the money? It's a small matter, not worth getting angry about."
"Yu'er, you don't know, that magistrate..." Xiao Fu felt his blood pressure rise when he mentioned the magistrate. He looked at his daughter's smile and swallowed back the rest of his words. Forget it, he couldn't tell Yue'er about such a troublesome matter. He said, "How are your medicines prepared?"
"That's good. When the rain stops, we can give it to the people to eat." Xiao Jiuyue was still looking forward to Xiao Fu talking about the county magistrate. After waiting for a long time, he didn't hear anything. Xiao Jiuyue asked, "What happened to the county magistrate?"
"It's okay, he's just a small county magistrate." He was so arrogant that he didn't even see his face!
Xiao Fu later revealed his identity, but the other party directly stated that the county magistrate was not at home.
Xiao Fu asked someone to inquire and thought that the county magistrate was busy with the flood. Later he found out that the county magistrate was actually drinking and having fun!
Yuguang is very close to Shengjing, so close that it seems like the emperor is at his feet. The magistrate of Yuguang County, if he remembers correctly, should be the second prince's man?
"By the way, is the injured patient you are carrying okay?" Xiao Fu changed the subject. He didn't want Xiao Jiuyue to know about the intrigues in the court.
"Don't worry, I won't die as long as my master is here." Xiao Jiuyue said proudly. The more they got along, the more Xiao Jiuyue felt that she had picked up a treasure!
The doctor who was saved casually turned out to be a doctor with particularly great medical skills!
Xiao Jiuyue felt that in two years, she would be able to diagnose patients.
"That's good. You said the injured person is from the Eighteen Villages?" Xiao Fu reminded him, "We're going back to Shengjing soon. We have to hide this injured person well."
"It's okay, just say that it was our guard who was seriously injured." Xiao Jiuyue didn't take it seriously at all. It was an accident when they found him at that time. Anyway, there were many guards in their group, and a seriously injured guard didn't seem strange.
Not to mention, she also disguised the injured person, so even his biological father wouldn't recognize him.
They stayed in Yuguang County for three days and were given medicine to prevent the plague. Doctor Xiao Wang also personally used a spray bottle to spray the flooded areas with medicine. Only then did the group leave.
On August 13, the moment Xiao Jiuyue saw the towering city walls of Shengjing again, he was filled with emotion!
Three years, a full three years!
After traveling through time, Xiao Jiuyue took over the Xiao family, which was in a mess. When she left Shengjing, she thought that she would return to Beijing in glory. Now, she has finally returned to Shengjing!
"Master Xiao!"
Before Xiao Jiuyue could react, she saw the Crown Prince and the Second Prince, along with a group of other officials, approaching to greet her. "Congratulations, Master Xiao! Not only did the Jinjiang River dike not burst this year, it completely blocked the flood. The people downstream of the Jinjiang River also enjoyed a bumper harvest!"
Xiao Jiuyue sat in the carriage and showed no sign of getting off. She still remembered that the Second Prince liked men!
She is now dressed in men's clothes. If she gets entangled by the second prince, she will be finished!
So, Xiao Jiuyue sat quietly in the carriage, as if there was no one in the carriage.
As soon as he entered Shengjing, Xiao Fu hid Xiao Jiuyue's identity and went directly to the palace to express his gratitude.
"Someone, come and send the things home first." Xiao Fu ordered.
The Second Prince said, "Master Xiao, when I was in Xiangcheng before, I learned a lot from you."
The Second Prince looked at the carriage team behind Xiao Fu, and it seemed that none of the guards was Xiao Jiu.
Xiao Fu answered with ease. Looking at the Second Prince's expression, he knew that he was still looking for Xiaojiu. He directly stated that he wanted to go to the palace to meet the Emperor immediately!
Soon, Xiao Fu entered the palace amidst the attention of many people.
Xiao Jiuyue followed the carriage all the way back to the Xiao family.
"Hey, the house I bought should be in Qingshuitang Lane, why is it in Qingshi Lane?" Xiao Jiuyue found something wrong at a glance.
Luo Kui, who came to greet her, smiled happily and said, "Miss, the emperor has given the house to the Xiao family again. Now, the Xiao family has returned to the house in Qingshi Lane!"
"The master has now been reinstated. These days, there are a lot of visiting cards in the mansion, and many of them invite you, young lady, to attend some spring banquet or flower-viewing banquet!" Luo Kui chirped like a bird, and the excitement in her eyes could not be hidden at this moment.
The Xiao family finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel. From now on, the young lady will still be the eldest lady of Shengjing!
"That's great!" Xiao Jiuyue raised her lips slightly, and after making sure her grandmother and the others were all safe, she stood in front of the Xiao family's gate again, looking at the vermilion gate with the words "Xiao Residence" written on it. The brand new plaque was even more majestic and domineering than before!
