Chapter 230:

Coming out of Minmin Alley of East Street, there is a small street called Ceshui where stalls are set up to sell goods. The evening market is located on the bank of Liushu River.

Xu Yi, wearing a red fox scarf, came here with Erqing and saw a fish seller closing his stall.

"Old man, have you sold out all the fish?" Xu Yi stepped forward to greet him.

The fish seller looked up and saw a handsome husband. He smiled and said, "Yes, I have been selling until this hour during the day, so why don't I go back to my business?"

After hearing this, Xu Yi asked along the way: "I'm here to buy. Crab man, I want to ask you, where can I buy crabs?”

“Where can I get good crabs at this time?” Seeing his appearance, the fish seller thought he was a young man from a wealthy family who didn’t know how to make money. , "If your husband wants to eat those crabs, you can go to the restaurant and ask. There may be the crabs that your husband mentioned."

"Are there any crabs in Cebu?" Xu Yi was a little unwilling to give up.

The fish seller shook his head, said nothing more, and left with his load of fish.

Seeing that the fish sellers were gone, Erqing turned to look at Xu Yi: "Doctor Xu, should we go to the restaurant to ask?"

Xu Yi looked at him with a faint smile: "Where can a restaurant get these crabs that even the fish sellers don't have? "

With that said, he returned with Erqing without success.

Just when I returned to my new house, I saw A Xu coming back from outside, carrying a food box with food bought from a restaurant.

"It's a bit late today, and I don't have time to make food, so I picked some light stir-fried vegetables and two plates of pickled vegetables. I'll see if they suit your taste. If not, I'll make some yam porridge." A Xu said as he spoke. , while placing the purchased food on the table.

Xu Yi said that this was enough, and he put down his bowls and chopsticks after eating two bowls.

After everyone finished eating, Xu Yi discussed with them tomorrow's arrangements. A Xu was a good at finding out information, so the matter of finding out information was left to him.

Yan Quyue said with a smile: "Call Erqing, let Erqing follow suit."

Speaking of Ajin, he is not young anymore, Xu Yi and Yan Quyue see the relationship between the two.

However, these two people have not mentioned coming up until now.

Even Yan Quyue was a little anxious.

But Xu Yi didn't seem to take this matter to heart, so as a lady, she was the only one who could give her a few words.

Yan Quyue said to Er Qing sincerely: "You will reach the crown in two years, so you should make some good plans. Will the money you have saved over the years be enough to buy a house?"

Er Qing was confused by the question, but answered honestly: " I have saved more than 90 guan, but I'm afraid it won't be enough."

Yan Quyue said, "I just want a place to live. I can buy a small house with 90 guan."

"That won't work. The house is too small to use this skill. Open." At this time, Xu Yi spoke disapprovingly.

Yan Quyue looked at him and said, "You put it lightly. Erqing followed us to climb mountains and wade in rivers. It would be great to be able to save this money."

As they came along, they saw that the better the place, the more expensive the houses, so they bought food. I found that one stone of food is now more than ten dollars more expensive than last year.

According to this trend, if they wait until they go to Kyoto, then the house in Kyoto will cost tens of thousands of dollars or more?

Xu Yi said: "..."

With their assets, they may not be able to afford a house in Kyoto.

When Yan Quyue mentioned this, Xu Yi took it for granted.

Afterwards, the two of them returned to the house and rested on the bed. Xu Yi asked with a smile: "Are you planning to prepare a dowry for A Jin? If you haven't prepared one yet, you can tell me which number is better. I'll give it here."

Prepare it for your maid Dowry is not uncommon, and Ah Jin is no ordinary maid.

She is also Xu Yi's female apprentice.

With this relationship, Xu Yi and Yan Quyue would give generous dowries as gifts no matter what.

Yan Quyue said: "Be prepared, take one hundred and twenty guan of silver from the dowry I brought."

"How can that be done?" Xu Yi frowned after hearing this, "This money is not a decimal, I'll do it It's done."

Yan Quyue Shi Ran said: "After all, Ajin has called my wife for several years, so she deserves to pay for it."

Seeing that he continued to frown and say nothing, she smiled and said, "I brought her here back then. I haven't spent any money on my dowry, and the shop my brother and sister-in-law gave me has made a profit. I am richer than you."

Xu Yi: "..." I really can't refute this.

He also made money, but from time to time he opened free clinics and went to the countryside to deliver medicine, and the money he earned flowed away like water.

"You pay part of it, and I'll pay the rest." Xu Yi chuckled and said, "I watched Ah Jin grow up. If I really marry this kid like Er Qing, I will be in a good position."

Yan Quyue said . : "I hear you, then I'll ask Ah Jin about this to see what she means."

Xu Yi: "Yeah."

...

"Meow~"

The next morning, Tiger King's urging voice sounded from the window.

Xu Yi woke up and opened the window, watching the cat jump into the house to find Yan Quyue. Yan Quyue wrapped herself in clothes and fed her dried meat.

Seeing the cute look of Tiger King begging for food, Xu Yi went out to find Xiao Huang.

Xiao Huang is very old, and now he has become lazy and likes to bask in the sun. It's a sunny day today, so he lies comfortably on the soft cushion made by Ah Jin with his eyes squinted.

Hearing the footsteps, it half-opened its eyes, saw that it was Xu Yi, and continued to lie down lazily.

"Why is it getting lazier?" Xu Yi squatted beside it and touched it, pinching the bones of its limbs.

Then Xu Yi patted its butt, "Come on, follow me and move."

The once majestic Xiao Huang, whose sharp golden eyes had already accumulated traces of time, heard Xu Yi's instructions, and raised its heavy eyelids. Get up from the mat quickly.

Xu Yi was pleased with its health and took it out with a smile.

Qishui is not small. There are many rivers running through the county. Many houses are built along the water. Outside the huts, there are boats for soliciting tourists.

Seeing Xu Yi coming with his dog, a boatman asked if he wanted to take a boat.

"Trouble the boatman." Xu Yi took Xiao Huang up to the boat.

The boatman smiled and asked: "Where is this husband going?"

Xu Yi was thinking about Qishui Pangzi. Even though he sent A Xu to find out the news, he couldn't stop thinking about it.

Even if you can't meet Pang Anshi in person, it's good to be lucky enough to meet this medical family.

Xu Yi then asked him: "Is there a doctor named Pang in Qishui City?"

"We have quite a few doctors in Qishui." The boatman leaned on the boat pole and said with a smile, "My husband wants to inquire about Mr. Pang. I do know one who lives in the south of Xishui."

After that, the boatman went to look at Xu Yi's face. He looked rosy and bright, and he didn't look like a sick person.

He asked, "This husband is asking about this big man. Do you want to see a doctor?"

"No." Xu Yi smiled, "I am also a doctor. I came from Sichuan. On the way, I heard about the doctor in Qishui. I just want to come and visit."

The boatman chuckled and said, "You must have asked the right person."

The Pang family is considered a wealthy family in Qishui. The family has been a doctor for generations. Although they are not of high origin, their reputation is not bad.

His ancestral house was built in the south of Xishui, opposite the gurgling river. There was a medical clinic in front of it, and the backyard was spacious, with dozens of families living there. The place to see a doctor and live in the same place is very convenient for treating patients.

Speaking of which, this big man had mediocre medical skills in Qishui and was not famous.

This was the first time the boatman heard anyone inquire about the Pang family. He wondered where this handsome doctor knew about it.

Xu Yi was surprised for a moment and laughed: "I heard it by chance."

Boatman: "..."

Seeing the boatman's disbelieving look, Xu Yi was helpless.

He did not expect that Pang's family was so inconspicuous in Qishui at this time, or that although it had a name, it was not famous.

Thinking about the legendary stories of Pang Anshi that I had read in books, these are things that have never happened before.

Xu Yi was curious and looking forward to it, but he was also afraid that his expectations would be too high and he would be disappointed.

...

At this time, a medical clinic in Xishuinan is open as usual.

It was cold and windy outside, and a child in green clothes was holding a broom to clean up the fallen leaves that fell last night.

"Oh, why is it cloudy again?" The child looked up at the sky and ran back to the hospital with a strange scream. He bumped into the man in green shirt walking towards him and shouted, "It's going to rain. We need to collect the medicinal materials we just dried." Come back."

"Quickly, call Xingxia to come over and take back the medicinal materials that were exposed." Qingshan Langjun hurriedly walked towards the yard without looking back.

Behind the medical center, there were rows of bamboo dustpans hanging out in the sun. There were a lot of medicinal materials spread on them, so two people had to be brought over quickly.

It took a long time to collect the medicinal materials that were finally dried out. Seeing that the clouds covered the sun and it was going to rain at any time, I was afraid that I would not be able to dry them today.

The boy who was sweeping the floor just now is named Pang Yangxu. He is the younger generation in the family. He is eleven years old and has been studying medicine with his grandfather for two years.

The man in green shirt is his brother-in-law and his grandfather's youngest son, named Pang Mincai. His grandfather passed down the family medical books to him, and now he is practicing in a medical clinic and is the youngest doctor in his family.

Of course, this doctor does not include Pang Yangxu, who is still an apprentice.

Pang Yangxu looked at the raindrops falling and sighed: "I'm afraid there are no doctors or patients to come to see the doctor today."

"This is a good thing." Pang Mincai smiled calmly and said nonchalantly, "It seems that the spring rain will continue to come again." It's been a month since the house was wet, so many people came to buy Aixiang, which is also a good source of income."

Pang Yangxu had a lot of troubles at a young age. Seeing his uncle like this, he shook his head: "How much is Aixiang worth? You can't earn dozens of pennies for just one stone."

Pang Mincai twitched his lips and said, "You talk too much, so stay close to the restaurant. I'll buy a bowl of salty rice dumplings from Madam Qi across the street.

" I also want to eat salty dumplings." Pang Yangxu's eyes lit up and he shouted hurriedly.

Pang Mincai walked away with a graceful step, swinging his sleeves.

Holding an oil-paper umbrella, he came out of the side door of the hospital and walked to the right along the Xishui River. When he was about to cross the bridge, he suddenly ran into a young man who was running to avoid the rain on the opposite side.

"Ouch -"

Pang Mincai stumbled and fell backward unsteadily. As he screamed, his arm was grabbed and he went forward instead.

Just as he was about to bump into the young man opposite him again, the man steadied him.

"It was so close, so close..." Before Pang Min could finish speaking, he caught a glimpse of a yellow dog from the corner of his eye, and he was so frightened that he backed away.

When he was right, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground. The oil-paper umbrella in his hand blew and was blown aside.

Xu Yi, who was too late to catch him this time, fell silent.

"..."

He quickly stepped forward to help the other person up, and asked with concern: "Where did he fall?"

Pang Mincai didn't hear what he said clearly, and his eyes fell directly on Xiao Huang beside Xu Yi.

Xiao Huang was keenly aware that the man in front of him was afraid of it, so he whimpered and retreated, huddled at Xu Yi's feet.

Xu Yi also noticed the other person's fear, and said quickly: "This is the dog I raised, named Xiao Huang. He never bites, please don't be afraid."

"I'm not afraid." Pang Min swallowed, Finally he came back to his senses and looked at Xu Yi.

Both of them were soaked in the rain, and accidentally bumped into each other, so they had to find a shelter from the rain first.

Not long after.

They sat in the stall opposite Mrs. Qi, who looked to be in her forties and had frequent contacts with Mr. Pang's family. Seeing how embarrassed they were, he covered his mouth with a smile and gave them sweat towels to wipe their faces.

"Quickly wipe your face and eat a bowl of hot salty dumplings." Mrs. Qi said, returning to the stove and serving them glutinous rice dumplings.

Pang Min did not forget to shout: "Ms. Qi, I don't want green onions, please add more sesame oil."

"Okay." Madam Qi responded, and asked Xu Yi by the way, "Does this Mr. Xu want green onions?"

Xu Yi He stood up politely and said, "You want green onions, no need to add more sesame oil."

When Pang Min heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, stared at Xu Yi and retorted: "It will taste better if you add more sesame oil."

Xu Yi replied calmly: "Eat it . The methods are different. There are many ways to eat this dumpling. "

Pang Mincai snorted, but he didn't mean to argue.

While waiting for Mrs. Qi to serve the salty dumplings, Xu Yi looked at the young man opposite him carefully. He looked two or three years younger than him.

He looks about the same age as A Xu A Jin.

Xu Yi looked at him and said sincerely: "My surname is Xu Mingyi. I didn't mean to hit him. I wonder if you can tell me your name? I'll come to apologize someday."

"You don't know me?" Pang Mincai looked at him in surprise when he heard this. to him.

In Xishuinan, who among the neighbors doesn’t know about Pang’s Medical Clinic?
