Chapter 2527 Madam Mei
Feng breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Zhou Liru, surprised. She didn't expect that the one with the greatest luck in marriage was not the most shrewd and capable Lijun, but the always silent and sensible Liru. This was totally beyond Feng's expectations.
What about the Shangshu family? Such a high-ranking official, just hearing about it made her dizzy.
Mrs. Liu Shangshu was also sitting in the carriage at this moment, happily drinking a sip of tea. Seeing that Liu Huan did not get on the carriage, she could not help but ask, "Where has your young master gone again?"
The nanny smiled and said, "Madam, the young master is riding a horse, and he is traveling with Lord Bai and the others."
Mrs. Liu Shangshu lifted the curtain and took a look behind. She saw him and Bai Shan and Bai Erlang riding horses together, their faces filled with happy smiles. She shook her head slightly and lowered the curtain. She couldn't help but laugh and said, "It seems like this child will never grow up."
The nanny smiled and said, "It will be fine after you get married."
Mrs. Liu Shangshu shook her head and said, "Let's wait another year, next year, no, it should be the year after next. After the new year, arrange for him to get married. Let him gain some experience and be mentally prepared. Then we can get married after a year or two."
The nanny smiled and said, "It won't be long. It will only be a little over a year. In another two years, the old lady might be able to hold a great-grandson."
Mrs. Liu Shangshu couldn't help but feel happy, but she said, "It's not like I don't have great-grandchildren. I don't have so many wishes. I just hope that they are safe and sound."
The two families reached a preliminary agreement, and Minister Liu's wife told Minister Liu the good news.
Minister Liu heaved a sigh of relief and said, "That month's salary wasn't wasted after all."
Almost a year has passed, and this marriage is finally coming to fruition.
The Zhou family was also very happy. One of the three most urgent marriages had been arranged. Although it had not been finalized yet, Liu Huan was familiar with their family, and Manbao served in the same court as her grandfather, so they knew each other well. Now that the two families had communicated, there was a high probability that there would be no problem.
So everyone's eyes fell on Zhou Lixue (three heads) and Zhou Ligu (four heads).
Zhou Lixue and Zhou Ligu's scalps tingled. They held their heads high and pretended to know nothing. They went to Zhou Liru to settle the score behind his back. "Why did you agree to him so quickly? Can't you test him a little more?"
"That's right, that's right, girls should be more reserved."
Zhou Liru said, "You guys go talk to grandpa and grandma about this. Besides, do I need you to teach me how to do things?"
Zhou Lixue looked at Zhou Liru in shock, "You, you are so strong now?"
Zhou Liru shook his head and said, "My aunt said that I need to be more assertive."
Zhou Lixue and Zhou Ligu didn't dare to offend her and fled away. They decided to try their best and take the Mingjing exam after the spring.
The next day, Manbao took Zhou Liru, who was also on leave, to Jishidiang. As for Liu Sanniang, she had to go to the Imperial Hospital to be on duty today.
Manbao's luck is not very good this year. When he drew lots, he got the idea that he would be on duty on New Year's Eve. Alas, the court has sealed it off. All other departments can be sealed off and have a day off, except the Imperial Hospital.
Manbao arrived at Jishidiang shaking his head.
She stepped on a stool to get out of the car, and when she looked up, she saw a car parked under the wall across the road. Few people parked their cars there, so she couldn't help but take a closer look.
Just as she was about to turn around and enter Jishitang, she saw a man jump out of the carriage opposite. He looked at Zhou Man excitedly, "Doctor Zhou——"
Manbao exclaimed, "Ah!", stopped and said with a smile, "Mr. Mei, you're here so early? Please come in."
Since you are here, why don’t you go into the pharmacy and wait?
Mr. Mei smiled, but turned around and helped a person out of the carriage. The person was wrapped in a cloak, but she had a graceful figure and was obviously a beautiful woman. Well, he hadn't seen her face yet, but his figure told Manbao so.
Manbao and Zhou Liru both stopped and waited to watch curiously.
A big maid got out of the car. She jumped out nimbly, held the woman's other side, and helped her across the road together with Mr. Mei. Manbao then realized that the patient was not Mr. Mei, but the woman who was wrapped up all over.
Seeing that she was wrapped tightly, Manbao knew that she was afraid of the cold, so he nodded and invited them in.
The medicine boy who heard the noise in Jishitang pulled aside the heavy curtain and came out, almost bumping into Mr. Mei. He quickly apologized and looked up to see Zhou Man standing beside him. He was overjoyed, "Young Doctor Zhou, you're here! No, no, slap your mouth, slap your mouth! You should call me Doctor Zhou. Doctor Zhou, please come in."
The sound was so loud that it could be heard from halfway down the street.
Manbao and he pulled the heavy curtain aside to let Mr. Mei and the other two in first, then he joked with him, "Are you arguing with the medicine boy next door and across the street again?"
She had just come earlier this month, but every time she came he would shout loudly like this.
The medicine boy chuckled and saw the curtain of Baicaotang opposite being lifted and a head poking out. He then raised his head proudly towards the opposite side.
The man opposite shook his head and snapped the curtain down, then turned around and said to their shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, these are the father and daughter who came to our shop a few days ago for medical treatment. They're here to see Doctor Zhou."
The shopkeeper, who had originally not taken it seriously, immediately stood up from behind the counter and asked, "Is Doctor Zhou seeing you?"
"He seems to know her, and he's even put up a curtain. He must have gone to the Zhou residence to ask for help. Boss, do you want to go over and take a look?"
The shopkeeper pondered for a moment, then said, "Go, get the furnace of medicine I wasted last time. I'll go ask Shopkeeper Zheng for advice."
After returning to Beijing, Manbao would still come to Jishidiang from time to time, one to visit Doctor Ding and others, and the other to see if there were any difficult and complicated diseases.
Seeing her coming, Dr. Ding and others who were already sitting in the clinic nodded slightly to her, and then continued to see the patients.
Manbao's clinic is now used by the shopkeeper Zheng. He may not open it to see patients once every ten days or half a month, and the number of times it is used may not be as many as Manbao's current one, so the actual users are Liu Sanniang and Zhou Liru.
Whenever they have a day off, they will come here for free medical consultation, just to gain experience.
Manbao asked Mr. Mei to help the person into her clinic. The curtain was drawn and the room was a little cold, no, very cold.
The medicine boy cleverly brought them a brazier, took a look at Mr. Mei, and obviously recognized him. When he went out, he carefully pulled Zhou Liru with him.
Zhou Liru went out with him.
The medicine boy lowered his voice and said, "This man came the day before yesterday, and a few days ago. Doctors Tao and Ding both saw him, but they couldn't prescribe any medicine. How did Doctor Zhou run into him?"
Zhou Liru lowered his voice and said, "My aunt's friend asked me to help. What's wrong with him?"
"I don't know," the medicine boy said flatly, "Doctor Ding and the others didn't let me know when they were discussing the patient's condition."
Inside the room, the woman took off the cloak on her head and the fur collar she had been wearing, then looked up at Zhou Man.
Manbao frowned slightly when he saw her expression. Her face was pale and her brows were furrowed, as if she was enduring something.
"Are you in pain?" Manbao looked her up and down.
The woman then put her hand on her stomach and said, "Yes, my stomach hurts."
