Chapter 256
On the tenth day of Xu Yi’s stay in Huo Mansion, Huo Yuqing’s abdominal injury started to grow new flesh.
Xu Yi lived in Huo Mansion for half a month, and Huo Yuqing no longer needed the help of servants when he got out of bed and moved around.
On this day, Xu Yi started to pack his bags and go home.
When he came, he only brought a medicine box, but when he returned, he came back with several large and small boxes, most of which were gifts from various rooms in the Huo Mansion.
Mrs. Huo sent someone to deliver a silver-gilt lychee and glass lamp.
This lantern is distinguished by the fact that it is surrounded by pink colored glass pieces, and the upper part is wrapped with silk to weave a lychee shape. It looks so exquisite and exquisite that even Xu Yi couldn't put it down.
I think Yan Quyue would like it very much.
The mother who came to give the gift had very sharp eyes. Seeing Xu Yi's eyes fixed on the lamp without moving away, the corners of her mouth turned up in satisfaction.
He smiled with a high attitude and said: "Mr. Xu has never seen such a good thing, ordinary people can't use it, but this is a gift from the eldest wife, you can keep it and use it."
Xu Yi: "..."
I thank your eldest wife. .
The mother didn't know that her words had ruined the image of the eldest wife of her family, but she still kept talking.
Xu Yi didn't want to listen to her, so he took the things away and sent her out politely but forcefully.
The things sent to the third room were all arranged by Mr. Huo. Compared with the big room which only had one lamp, the things he sent were much more practical.
There are four boxes of incense trays, four boxes of incense powder, and four boxes of incense cakes. Each box contains high-quality incense that is hard to find at a high price.
It was placed in a green sandalwood box with crabapple and pear flowers. Xu Yi took stock of the quality inside and was very satisfied with these dozen boxes of incense.
I plan to give a few plates to Xing Yuesen and Mr. Jiao when the time comes.
Then, there are the things sent by the second room.
Seeing what the second room gave him, Xu Yi realized that Ms. Cui's talk about the Wan Guan medical fee was not a joke.
She really sent me thousands of dollars!
Xu Yi felt uneasy with so much money and planned to return it.
Unexpectedly, before it was sent back, Huo Yuxuan came over first. When he saw it, he said with a smile: "My mother has always said that there is no reason to return something that is sent out."
Xu Yi raised an eyebrow at him.
Huo Yuxuan was rarely seen as embarrassed. She turned her face away and saw the incense box placed in the basket. She was stunned for a moment and said in shock: "You don't accept my mother's consultation fee, but instead accept my brother-in-law's incense?!"
Xu Yi didn't know why: "Is there another reason for this fragrance?"
"Of course!"
The incredulity on Huo Yuxuan's face didn't seem to be fake: "Do you know who made this fragrance?"
Xu Yi was too lazy to guess: "I don't know."
Huo Yuxuan said slowly. Slowly spit out the words: "It's my brother-in-law."
"My brother-in-law started practicing Taoism through incense. He studied under the immortal incense official who was famous in Kyoto in those days. My brother-in-law can not only make incense, but also compose incense manuals. The incense he made is worth a thousand gold." It’s rare that today’s officials are very obsessed with my brother-in-law’s incense. “
Most of the people who taste incense are literati, and there are also those who can make incense, but those who can compose incense, and the incense they make are hard to find. One in a million.
Xu Yi vaguely understood why the first lady was afraid of the third wife.
With the ability of the third brother and the third master, if he does not retire, his future future will not be any worse than that of Captain Huo.
Let's not mention the twists and turns here. After hearing Huo Yuxuan's words, this fragrance is not easy for Xing Yuesen to use.
Otherwise, it is easy to cause misunderstandings.
Xu Yi thought so much for a while, but Huo Yuxuan only stared at the incense box and drooled: "My uncle is too much. I asked him to send me incense on my birthday, but he didn't even give it to me. Instead,
he gave you so many boxes." If there were so many, my classmates would be extremely envious if they were taken out.
"If you like it, I can also send you a few boxes." Xu Yi said from the side.
Take the expensive medical fee and give him some gifts from his family.
Not a loss.
Huo Yuxuan was a little hesitant: "If my mother knew, she would say something about me."
Xu Yi smiled: "I gave it to you, but your mother wouldn't say anything about you."
Huo Yuxuan looked at the incense box and really couldn't bear to part with it. She swallowed her saliva and hugged the three of them. Put the box in your arms.
"Mr. Xu, you are so kind."
Huo Yuxuan said sincerely, "My second brother is not so good to me."
Xu Yi, who was given the good guy card, laughed helplessly, feeling that he had nothing to gain.
...
These days, Huo Yuxuan drank the Zhuzi Reading Pills prescribed by Xu Yi, and he no longer had headaches, nor did he feel panicked when he was studying. In order to prevent his mother from wasting her efforts, he lived a difficult life, holding books he didn't like to read. Read up.
The Huo family was shocked by his rapid academic progress.
It turns out that the fifth master in the mansion is not a fool, but he can't read unless he took this "study pill" before.
The rumors in every room of the Huo Mansion were exaggerated and untrue, not to mention that when they spread outside, they gradually changed.
After becoming Huo Jiaxuan's fifth master and taking the "Reading Pill" prescribed by Xu Yi, not only can he become smarter, but he can also study better and have a photographic memory!
Many powerful people have set their sights on their elder brother who doesn't like to study.
The fifth master of the Huo family can become smart, so can his family too?
"Is it true or not?"
"Of course it is true. My brother and the fifth master Xu are classmates. The fifth master Xu could not answer nine out of ten questions asked by the teaching assistant before. By chance, he took those reading pills. I can answer it now.”
“Not only that, but I don’t complain about having a headache when I read.”
“My son also gets a headache from studying. If it really helps, I’ll ask Mr. Xu to come and see if my son has any other excuses. "
..."
After a few days of this news, many people wanted to see Mr. Xu.
However, Xu Yi could not leave the house in the Huo Mansion, and they could not go to the Huo Mansion to take the person away. They could only wait for the Huo Mansion to release him.
Until this day, new news came from the market -
"Good news, Mr. Xu has left Huo Mansion. Aren't you looking for him? You can go now!"
As soon as these words came out, someone had already prepared a carriage and hurried to the south of Chengdong Street, Zhuque Street.
*
Xu Yi had been away from home for many days and missed Yan Quyue and others very much. He urged the Huo family's groom to drive faster.
The carriage rolled through the street, raising dust and flying whips to the south of the street.
There were many people waiting outside the alley.
Half an hour ago, Xing Yuesen received the news. He wanted to prepare a car to pick up Xu Yi, but the people from the Huo Mansion refused.
So he turned around and came to Xu's house to tell Yan Quyue the news.
Yan Quyue heard that Xu Yi was going home today and quickly called A Xu and Er Qing back.
After waiting for a while, he saw a carriage rushing towards him.
The carriage stopped a few feet away, and the curtain of the carriage was quickly opened. Xu Yi came out and saw everyone waiting for him. He raised his eyebrows slightly and shouted with a smile: "Madam, Brother Xing, I'm back."
" Well, I'm back." Yan Quyue's bright eyes fell on him, she couldn't hide her joy, and said with a low smile.
"Really fat?" Xu Yi opened his eyes. It was not easy for him to practice martial arts in Huo Mansion. I haven’t exercised for more than a month.
Xing Yuesen smiled and patted his shoulder: "Indeed."
Xu Yi: "..."
Feeling in crisis, he held Yan Quyue's hand and said, "Madam, I will train even harder from tomorrow."
Yan Quyue didn't take it . He opened his hand and nodded with a smile.
A Xu and Er Qing helped unload the baskets from the car. Yan Quyue and Xing Yuesen were surprised when they saw that there were several boxes.
They all couldn't help but ask: "Why are there so many?"
Xu Yi replied: "Every room in the Huo family gave them to me. There are also some bits and pieces that were given to me by servants in each room when they came to see me for medical treatment. If there are too many, I will take care of them alone." I put a box in it. "
The biggest box contains all kinds of small things, including needlework and cloth. Xu Yi took everything in.
The groom sent the person there, said a few words with a smile, and then drove the carriage back to pay the errand.
Everyone carried the baskets home.
Xing Yuesen told Xu Yi the news he had learned in recent days: "Do you know who committed the murder against Huo Jiayu's second master?"
"Caught him?" Xu Yi asked him.
Xing Yuesen nodded and said he caught it.
This is a bit funny. The person the perpetrator wanted to kill was another student in the Imperial College.
The pronunciation of the supervisor's name was similar to that of Huo Yuqing, so the perpetrator mistook him for his opponent.
"He is also a poor man. He and his sister depended on each other and set up a stall in the market. They were raped by each other. Later, his sister was unwilling to be humiliated and hanged herself." Xing Yuesen said with a sigh.
As soon as his sister died, he wanted to go to the Yamen to report the crime, but he didn't even know how to write the other party's name, let alone the scholar who wrote the petition.
When you are desperate, you want to die with the other person.
Before the incident, he had been squatting in the Imperial College for several days. He accidentally heard someone calling Huo Yuqing's name, which was the same as the name of the person who killed his sister, so he followed him.
Xu Yi listened silently and asked: "What happened to the supervisor who killed his sister?"
Xing Yuesen showed a sneer on his face and said: "This matter has been brought before the officials. It's impossible to protect your son. The officials have spoken. , will be punished severely. "
This supervisor is also a second-generation official, and his father is a doctor in the Ministry of Industry. After all, he is a high-ranking official. If his son commits such a crime and is exposed again, he will not be treated lightly.
Now the prison guard has been escorted to Dali Temple for interrogation. If the situation is true, the prison guard should be removed and sentenced to exile.
Hearing that those who committed crimes would be severely punished, Xu Yi did not continue such a serious topic.
Instead, he told Yan Quyue, Xing Yuesen and others what happened during the days he lived in Huo Mansion.
Listening to his daily life in Huo Mansion, several people looked dazed.
"It's useless for me to worry about you." Xing Yuesen couldn't help but sigh, "If you walk around in Kyoto, I'm afraid you can eat and live better than me."
Yan Quyue smiled and said: "I'm not worried. We will still be there these days when you are not here. "Yes."
Xu Yi looked at her and said, "I miss you so much." "Cough cough
. " The two of them covered their mouths and coughed at the same time. "Mr. Xing is here, please restrain yourself." Yan Quyue glared at him angrily, making her feel embarrassed. Xu Yi was not afraid of her glare and anger, but felt more at ease in his heart. A gold and silver nest was not as good as his own. When he returned home and saw the person he liked, he felt that everything in this small courtyard was great. The two of them sat smiling at each other without saying a word. Xing Yuesen sat uncomfortably, not wanting to remain an eyesore. "Take a rest in two days and I'll come back." After he left, Xu Yi took Yan Quyue and talked about the things he brought: "The Huo family gave me a lamp in the big room. I think it's good. If you like it, you can Keep it. If you don't like it, we can pawn it for money. " It's not easy to pawn the Huo family's stuff, so just keep it." Yan Quyue smiled. Xu Yi said "hmm" casually. He handed over the things he brought to Yan Quyue and A Jin to take care of. When they saw a box of money inside, they were no less surprised than Xu Yi. "The wife of the second wife of the Huo family is so rich. With ten thousand yuan, she can buy a small house in the south of the street." Ah Jin gasped. My fingers trembled when I touched the money. Xu Yi laughed and scolded that he was useless, and then continued, "This ten thousand yuan of silver can only buy a house in the suburbs in Kyoto, but not in the city." Even if he could buy it, the house would be small and dilapidated, much smaller than the one they live in now. Even worse. Ah Jin sighed for a moment, feeling that the ten thousand dollars was worthless. "We are not short of money now, but we don't want to buy a house in Kyoto." Yan Quyue spoke, looking at Ajin and Erqing with a smile, "If you want to stay in Kyoto, you can buy it. If you don't want to keep it, buy it." "Whether we want to stay or not depends on what Lang Jun and Madam want," A Jin said immediately, and asked a little aggrievedly, "Does Madam not want A Jin to follow you? "
Yan Quyue raised her hand and poked her forehead: "I'm just going to say a few words about your stupidity, but you are still serious."
Ajin shouted, "That's because the lady loves me."
It's not good to keep too many small things . Yan Quyue planned to take the unused ones to Xiangguo Temple and sell them.
The incense given by Mr. Huo is precious and cannot be given away easily, nor can it be used casually by A Xu, A Jin and the others, as it shows that they do not respect the Huo family enough.
Yan Quyue thought, it would be better to give a box to Mr. Jiao. Mr. Jiao often stays at home and does not go out, so there is no harm in using it.
Xu Yi had no objection to this. At this time, he was looking at the account book handed over by A Xu.
During his absence, Xiangguo Temple opened three trading days, and A Xu and Er Qing went there every time, selling only Xiaoshi pills.
The first time they sold them at Xu Yi's price of thirty cents per pack, and the next two times they bought medicinal materials from the pharmacy on Maxing North Street, the cost doubled and the selling price doubled.
A Xu said: "I thought they wouldn't buy it at 60 cents a pack. I couldn't sell it even if I thought about it."
Xu Yi, who had seen the expensive medicinal materials in Kyoto, now felt that they priced it at 60 cents a pack, which was really cheap.
"Even if the price rises to 80 cents a pack, they will still buy it." Xu Yi said firmly.
A Xu was shocked.
He quickly asked Xu Yi if they wanted to continue raising prices.
Xu Yi waved his hand, saying there was no need to continue to increase prices. They did not come to Kyoto to harvest the wool of Kyoto people.
...
too hospital.
Many doctors [note] are discussing the recent hot figure in Kyoto - Xu Yi.
Being able to cure Huo Yuqing's injuries in such a short period of time was a skill only achieved by imperial doctors of the sixth grade or above in their hospital.
As a result, within a few days, it was reported that Xu Yi had prescribed some kind of "study pill", which caused a lot of discussion.
"Where in the world can smart medicines come from?" Some people are disdainful.
But some people analyzed it carefully: "I know the origin of this prescription. There is a medicine recorded in the "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" called Polygala, which can improve wisdom and make the ears and eyes clear..."
"Whether this is true or not, it remains to be seen. I'm not sure. It would be nice if I could see what medicine was prescribed."
"Why, don't you believe it?" "
What does it have to do with it? I asked the professor, and he said it was all rumored. , Can’t be taken seriously. "
Doctors who can enter the Tai Hospital not only have teachers, but also have real abilities.
They have been studying medicine for more than ten years and have read countless medical works. What's more, they have professors to teach them and they are arrogant. How can they look up to a folk doctor from the countryside.
Most people think that the common people have never seen a good doctor, and if there is a good doctor, they exaggerate.
They all took it as a joke.
Somewhere in the courtyard of Taiyuan Hospital, Shang Hongshen finished sorting out the assessment and recruitment materials in his hand and closed the book, and hearty laughter could be heard outside.
"Brother Shang, are you here?"
The visitor stepped in. Seeing Shang Hongshen's presence, he sat down in front of him unceremoniously and said, "I know who made the Xiaoshi pills that appeared in Xiangguo Temple."
Shang Hongshen's tired eyes He opened his eyes and asked, "Who is it?"
His colleague smiled pointedly and said, "You have seen him."
Shang Hong thought deeply and said, "I have seen so many doctors. If you ask me to guess, I can't. Say it quickly, so I can go and do other things."
"That person is none other than Xu Housheng, who you met on the road last time. At that time, you said that this person was a good doctor. I thought you were joking, but I didn't expect it to be true. "Yes." The colleague said with an intriguing look in his eyes.
Shang Hongshen was shocked, he didn't expect it to be the same person.
"Isn't he in Huo Mansion?"
"He is in Huo Mansion, but the people who set up stalls selling pills at Xiangguo Temple are his people."
The colleague said, and said to Shang Hongshen: "Brother Shang, you are the court judge, so good Don’t doctors like him want to recruit him into our Taiyuan Hospital?”
Shang Hongshen: “…”
He didn’t respond to his colleagues. Instead, he was wondering whether a doctor like Xu Yi would be willing to stay at Taiyuan Hospital.
