Chapter 3378 Extra Strong Sister 32
It is said that Lord Zhou's surgery and acupuncture are unmatched in the entire Jin Dynasty, especially acupuncture, which can be used to treat diseases and regulate the body, and is famous throughout the Jin Dynasty.
The acupuncture department of the Imperial Medical Bureau was initiated by Lord Zhou, but Bai Jingxing's acupuncture skills...
Thinking back to the time when they accidentally fell ill and Bai Jingxing gave them injections, tears welled up in my eyes.
Bai Jingxing glanced at Yang Zezhi, feeling a little embarrassed. "It's cold, so there's no need for acupuncture. I'll prescribe some medicine for you to keep warm."
She took the medicine from the medicine box, boiled the water, poured it into the kettle, and refilled it with water to boil the medicine.
Yang Zezhi also went to the backyard to change into clean clothes, and came out with Bai Ruoyu. Bai Jingxing handed them two cakes and said, "Soak them in water and eat them."
Bai Ruoyu sat on her other side and let out a sigh, "It's really cold today."
As soon as he looked up, he met the gaze of the young lady sitting by the fire behind Bai Jingxing. He followed her gaze to look at Yang Zezhi, and immediately laughed, winking at Yang Zezhi, "Brother Yang, there is another young lady staring at you."
Upon hearing this, Bai Jingxing looked back curiously and met the girl's gaze. He couldn't help but smile and nodded at her.
Many people stared at Yang Zezhi along the way. Not only Yang Zezhi was used to it, but the people who were accompanying him were also used to it.
Without even turning his head, Yang Zezhi looked at the cake in Bai Ruoyu's hand and asked, "Is it too much? Can't finish it?"
Bai Ruoyu immediately lowered his head and took a bite. Although it was dry and crumbly, he still had to eat it because it was their dry food.
"I miss the dry food Aunt Qian made."
Bai Jingxing was so annoyed by him that the cake in his hand no longer smelled good anymore.
On the other side of the fire, the middle-aged man frowned slightly, "Yun'er."
Wang Yun came back to her senses, blushed slightly and lowered her head, but still couldn't help saying: "Uncle, this person is very good-looking. Judging from their clothing, they don't look like ordinary people."
The middle-aged man said unhappily, "Don't be rude."
Wang Yun could only lower her head and dared not say anything more.
Just as they finished boiling the medicine, it was already dark outside. The rain was pattering against the roof and window frames, making a loud noise. Everyone in the group was thankful, "Fortunately, we didn't rush this long, otherwise we would definitely be blocked on the road."
Yang Zezhi took out a cloak and covered Bai Jingxing with it, saying softly, "You are tired too, go to sleep first."
"Brother Yang, aren't you going to sleep?"
"I'm not in a hurry. I'll keep watch for a while."
Although there are guards, they still have to take turns to keep an eye on it to feel at ease.
Bai Jingxing nodded and leaned on his arms. But her eyes were still open and bright, and she looked very energetic.
Yang Zezhi added two more pieces of firewood, occasionally lowering his head to meet her gaze. After a long pause, he smiled and said, "Forget it. If you can't sleep, don't force yourself."
Bai Jingxing chuckled and stopped pretending to sleep. He propped up his head and looked at him, "Brother Yang, are you tired of taking us all the way here?"
She counted on her fingers and said, "I have to plan the itinerary, communicate with the government, give us lessons, assign homework, and grade it. Finally, I have to take care of our daily life."
Yang Zezhi poked the fire with a stick and replied softly, "I've gained a lot from this, and you've all taken good care of me. It's not just me who's making these sacrifices, so I'm not tired."
"We should be back in the capital next year, right?"
Yang Zezhi nodded and asked, "Do you want to go home?"
Bai Jingxing nodded, "I miss home. I don't know if my eldest and second brothers have made any progress, and if my parents are still so busy."
Yang Zezhi frowned and thought for a moment, "Then let's go home?"
Bai Jingxing shook his head repeatedly, "Since I'm here to study, I naturally have to visit all the places I need to visit. Although I miss home, I'm not in a hurry to go back."
She paused and said, "Brother Yang, is it really okay for you to not go back to take the exam?"
"What's wrong with that?"
"Everyone wants to become famous at a young age, and the same goes for entering officialdom. Naturally, the earlier you enter officialdom, the better, and the more advantages you will have. You clearly passed the imperial examination at the tender age of twenty, but you have never gone to the Ministry of Personnel for selection. If you continue to delay..."
Yang Zezhi noticed her pause and asked with a smile, "Have you grown old?"
"Hehehe," Bai Jingxing scratched his head and said, "Of course, compared to other officials who have entered the government, you are still young, but you could have entered the government earlier."
Yang Zezhi lowered his eyes and stared at the fire. After a long pause, he said, "The Great Jin is now prosperous, with talented people emerging in large numbers. They don't need someone like me. If I'm not indispensable, why should I enter the government?"
Bai Jingxing was stunned and asked blankly, "If you don't want to be an official, what are you going to do?"
“Naturally, I do what I want to do, whatever comes to my mind.”
Bai Jingxing: "What does Brother Yang want to do?"
Yang Zezhi tilted his head and looked at her and smiled.
Bai Jingxing's eyes were full of confusion, and he also tilted his head.
Yang Zezhi reached out and pulled her loose cloak back into place, saying softly, "I want to travel every inch of this world, to places I've never been to, or even heard of. I'll write a travelogue someday, telling the world where I've been and what I've learned. That would be like leaving something useful behind for the world."
"What about you?" Yang Zezhi asked her, "I remember you once aspired to be like your mother, to travel around and practice medicine. Have you changed your mind now?"
"No, I'm preparing now. My medical skills have improved a lot this year."
Bai Jingxing still felt incredible, "You, you are the eldest son of the Yang family, you really don't want to be an official?"
"Not all eldest sons of aristocratic families will become officials. Hasn't the patriarch of the Wang family always been in the wild?" Of course, he also followed the late emperor in his early years, went to the battlefield, and served as a minor official. Later, after resigning from his post, he returned home to inherit the family business and concentrate on handling the clan affairs of the Wang family.
The Yang and Wang families were close friends, and Yang Zezhi envied Patriarch Wang's lifestyle. Seeing Bai Jingxing's curious expression, he moved closer and lowered his voice, "Look, is Patriarch Wang now the longest-lived of all the aristocratic families?"
Bai Jingxing's eyes widened instantly, "It seems to be true."
Yang Zezhi chuckled: "Government affairs make people grow old. It is not necessary for the people of the world. There is really no need to force yourself to go in."
Bai Jingxing clenched his fists, and for some reason, he felt very excited. "You are right, absolutely right. So, Brother Yang, will you go to sea in the future?"
Yang Zezhi: “I figured it out.”
"Then let's go," Bai Jingxing raised his voice excitedly. Bai Ruoyu and the others who were already asleep were startled by her voice and started to move. She immediately covered her mouth and leaned close to him and whispered, "Take me with you when the time comes."
Yang Zezhi's eyes lit up slightly, and he looked at her and asked, "Do you want to go to sea too?"
Bai Jingxing nodded vigorously and whispered, "Yes! I heard that there are caravans going to Miluo and other places by sea. The customs and practices there are completely different from ours."
Yang Zezhi stared into her eyes and nodded seriously, "Okay, I will definitely take you there."
