Dr. Chang wrote out a prescription, took the generous consultation fee, and returned to the city.
Last time, Princess Kang Le suffered from a strange illness, which caused all the doctors in the city to go through a lot of trouble, and in the end, they all came back looking disheveled.
Moreover, legend has it that it was the "miracle doctor" from Suijintan who cured Princess Kangle.
It could be said that they all became stepping stones for that miracle doctor.
This incident makes them feel uneasy every time they think about it.
Now, Doctor Chang has been invited to Suijintan again, this time to examine Princess Kangle, which has piqued everyone's curiosity.
So, less than a quarter of an hour after Doctor Chang returned to the pharmacy, four or five colleagues arrived.
The group sat together drinking tea, and the topic of conversation came up after only a few words.
Someone asked, "Brother Chang, what exactly happened at Broken Gold Beach? Don't they have a renowned doctor overseeing things? Why do they need you to go there?"
Doctor Chang is a good person, not petty, and the Li family is very courteous. This time, they were greeted by an earl, and the consultation fee was generous. He couldn't go against his conscience and say anything bad about the Li family.
So he said, "My colleague from Broken Gold Beach has gone out to gather herbs and hasn't been around for the past few days."
"But the princess caught a cold and suffered from vomiting and diarrhea, so Lord Li sent someone to ask me to make a house call. I prescribed some medicine and she was fine."
Everyone understood and nodded in agreement.
The man who first asked the question sneered, "So you're saying that only when their divine physician is away do they remember us, their defeated underlings?"
He emphasized the words "miracle doctor" and "defeated opponent," his intention was obvious.
The others smiled, lowered their heads, drank their tea, and remained silent.
Doctor Chang couldn't help but say, "That's true, we were indeed defeated."
“I just carefully examined the princess’s pulse, and the previous strange illness has been completely cured. Now it’s just a simple case of cold in the abdomen, not a lingering ailment from the previous strange illness.”
The man who had spoken chuckled and also picked up his teacup...
As these doctors left Huichuntang, the news spread.
Although it was still the princess who was sick this time, there was no reward of a thousand taels of silver, and it wasn't a serious illness, so it naturally didn't attract much interest. People would just say a few words and that was it.
But this was only true for ordinary people; in the eyes of Madam Wu of the Jiangning Marquis's residence, it was a major event.
She almost immediately sent her household maid with a box of the Empress's favorite pastries to the palace.
Of course, the letters at the bottom of the box were also sent in.
The Empress was relieved and ate half a bowl more rice that night, and slept well.
When I woke up the next day, I not only didn't have a headache, but I felt refreshed.
Now, even if the Empress was unwilling, she was nine-tenths convinced...
Only one point remains, and we'll have to wait five or six days.
At this moment, Jiayin was not bedridden at all. She had already changed into Shuiyun's clothes, wrapped her hair with a handkerchief, put on a mask, disguised herself as a little maid, and followed the village chief on patrol.
This disguise was just to keep outsiders in check, so that if they found out she was lively and energetic, her feigned illness would be exposed.
As for the villagers, they're all too familiar with each other; it's impossible to hide it from them, and there's no need to...
The expanded chicken coops and pig farm in the village are all ready.
The chicken coop was even better than the typical thatched huts in a farmhouse, with thick walls and a roof that kept it warm in winter and cool in summer.
Inside, rows of shelves, about half a person's height, were erected.
On the shelf are square baskets woven from rattan, used to keep chicks.
In this way, the excrement falls under the shelf, making it easy to collect and clean.
Jiayin originally wanted to explore an automatic water and material feeding system, but the village chief stopped her.
Nowadays, all the fields in the Broken Gold Beach area are planted with Jade Melons and Golden Fruits, which greatly reduces the amount of farm work throughout the year, especially in autumn and winter.
Therefore, there are many idle people in each household.
Some hardworking families would weave baskets and hampers, go to the city to find odd jobs, and try to earn some money.
But some families simply eat and sleep, sleep and eat, and even gather to drink and gamble.
Over time, this might cause some trouble.
With more work at the chicken farm and pigsty, we can hire more workers.
If you get paid for your work, you have hope for the future and won't fall into depravity...
Jiayin felt quite ashamed. Because she had retained her memories of her past life and had the help of her spatial ability, she considered herself much smarter than others.
But when it comes to the wisdom of living a simple life, they are far inferior to the village chief and others.
Therefore, she adjusted her thinking in time and asked more questions and listened more.
When making decisions, the village chief's opinion is also sought.
Now that it's completely finished, both she and the village chief are very satisfied after walking around.
The pigsty wasn't much worse than the chicken coop.
To keep the pigs warm in winter and prevent them from losing weight, the pigsty was not built as a semi-open structure, but was covered with a shed and even had a bluestone floor.
The ground slopes slightly towards the corner, so that when a few buckets of water are poured down, the pig manure and urine can flow out through the drain in the corner, saving a lot of effort.
A clean living environment also reduces the likelihood of pigs getting sick.
Many villagers, who had been following the village chief and the princess around, couldn't help but start praising them.
"The pigsty and chicken coop are built better than most people's houses."
"Yes, these chickens and pigs are living the high life!"
"Haha, you're envious? Then come sleep here tonight!"
"Get out of here! You're the one who sleeps with pigs!"
Fearing that the villagers might say something that offended the princess, the village chief told them to leave.
"Go do what you're supposed to do! Don't you want your work points for today?"
"In a few months it will be the end of the year and the money will be distributed. Do you want to see others getting money and be green with envy?!"
The villagers chuckled, quickly said goodbye, and ran off.
Jiayin and the village chief found a sunny, sheltered spot to chat.
“Grandpa Village Chief, in a few days we’ll call Jingli and the others to come and take a look. If they’re willing, they can give raising chickens and pigs a try in their village.”
"In addition, I have already grown the white melons and fragrant peaches that Uncle Hei and the others brought back from Ganzhou Prefecture in the greenhouse. It's not difficult."
"Next year, we'll set aside 20 mu of land for the village to try planting it. I'm sure it will be good. Especially the white melons, which are sweeter than jade melons and bigger than cantaloupes. They're sure to sell for a lot of money."
The village chief beamed with joy and quickly replied, "Okay, okay, don't worry, I will definitely reserve the best twenty acres of land."
After saying that, he couldn't help but sigh, "Everyone says that Broken Gold Beach is a place of good feng shui, but little do they know that the real treasure of Broken Gold Beach is the princess!"
"These jade melons, golden fruits, and white melons are all high-quality items, and our village has them all!"
Jiayin coaxed the old man with a smile, "That's why I wish Grandpa Village Chief a long and healthy life. I wouldn't feel at ease without Grandpa Village Chief watching over all these good things."
"Good, good! Just because of what the princess said, I'll live longer than a tortoise!" The village chief laughed heartily, attracting the attention of the busy villagers not far away.
They didn't know what made the village chief so happy, but they couldn't help but want to laugh along with him.
Life is truly enjoyable.
Although the weather was getting cooler, their hearts were burning hotter and hotter...
Seven or eight days have passed in the blink of an eye. With the busy autumn season over, there are more pedestrians on the streets of Xinduli, and it has regained some of its former liveliness.
A carriage bearing the insignia of the palace was parked in front of the Jiangning Marquis's residence, attracting the attention of passersby.
It's possible that the Empress in the palace sent gifts to her family again.
However, I wonder what kind of good stuff it is...
Here's the third update! The end-of-month bonus chapters are temporarily suspended, so don't be disappointed, my darlings! I'll continue as soon as I've organized the outline! Love you all!
