Si Jinxing, who was far away in Xuzhou Prefecture, had no idea that a big move had taken place in her Suihuayuan!
She had just finished skin expansion for Gu's youngest daughter.
She opened the door and Song Xiner walked in.
She looked at the two small bulges below the little girl's collarbone and on her left cheek, and couldn't help but ask:
"Benefactor, new skin grows from these two places?"
Si Jinxing washed her hands, walked over and explained:
"If you look closely, there is a small hole on each of the bulging bags, and a bag is placed underneath each.
After a few days, when the wound has healed, you can regularly inject medicine into the bag through the small hole. The bag will then expand and the skin will slowly grow larger.
After two months, when the skin in this area has reached the size of her dark spots, the second surgery can be performed."
Song Xiner was completely confused. She had no idea what kind of bag could be placed on a person's face, nor how to perform the second step of the operation!
However, she nodded as if she was being taught, and said:
"My benefactor, I have never heard of anything you said before! If you are so powerful, how much more powerful must the Princess of Anping be!"
Si Jinxing just smiled, said nothing more, and took her out of the room.
Outside the door, Gu Anxu and Cao were already fidgeting with anxiety.
As soon as they saw them come out, the two of them hurried over and asked, "Miss, how is the diagnosis of my daughter going?"
Song Xiner followed Si Jinxing's instructions and replied:
"The operation went very smoothly, and she will be brought here every seven days from now on.
If the new skin grows well, a second operation can be performed two months later.
She is still in a coma and will not wake up for half an hour. You can go and see her."
Upon hearing this, Cao hurriedly thanked Song Xiner and went into the room holding up her skirt.
Gu Anxu glanced at Song Xiner, then at Si Jinxing, and said with a bow:
"Thank you for your help, young lady. I will always remember your kindness!"
Si Jinxing smiled and said, "If you want to thank someone, thank this girl of mine. Her medical skills are really good."
Gu Anxu's eyes flashed, and he nodded quickly, saying, "Yes, thank you Miss Song!"
If it were before, he would have thought that Miss Song knew medical skills.
But today he smelled a hint of blood on the young lady in front of him. He thought that she had picked up some blood during the treatment, but there was no blood on Miss Song.
He is a doctor himself, so how could he not tell who is the real person treating the patient?
Gu Anxu was also a smart man. Seeing that the young lady did not want to expose herself, he naturally did not ask too much. He just thanked her again and went into the room.
After finishing the work here, Si Jinxing took Qingchan and Song Xiner, the "half-local", out of the house!
She wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to investigate the city before Lord He arrived!
According to Mo Qiu, there are three places in Xuzhou that we need to visit.
One is in the northern suburbs, one is the City God Temple, and one is outside the prefectural government office on Fuqian Street!
Although Xuzhou Prefecture is not as prosperous as Jianzhou City, it is also a very prosperous prefecture.
Their carriage traveled for half an hour before arriving at the north gate.
Song Xiner got off the carriage, spoke a few words to the soldiers guarding the city in Xuzhou dialect, and then returned to the carriage.
She frowned and said:
"Benefactor, the north gate has long been closed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave."
Si Jinxing glanced at the city gate. If it doesn’t work during the day, then he will find out at night!
Then they went to the City God Temple in the east of the city!
The traffic here was smooth and I met many people on the way. When I asked, I found that they were all going to the City God Temple Porridge Stall.
Si Jinxing was sitting in the carriage. At a glance, she saw eight long queues of several hundred meters long lined up in front of Zhou Peng!
At the front of the team, a thin man was raising his hand and saying something.
Si Jinxing took out a telescope from Xinglin Yaxu and looked again, only then could he see it clearly.
The man was happily telling the people that the imperial envoy would arrive in two days and the people's hard days would be over!
Bai Xi said at the right moment: "That man is none other than the Xuzhou Prefecture's Co-Governor, Fu Tong."
Si Jinxing nodded, put away the telescope, put on a tattered dress, took off the veil, revealing a face full of scars.
Seeing this, Bai Xi muttered:
"Whose princess is like you?"
Qing Chan reached out and slapped Bai Xi on the forehead, scolding him, "You talkative thing!"
Song Xiner looked at the face under the veil, but she could not connect it to the real face of her benefactor!
This is not a person's face at all!
Si Jinxing didn't care what they thought. She got off the carriage and walked to the front of the team.
When she arrived, she saw Fu Tong holding a bowl of porridge and walking towards the wall of the City God Temple.
The people in the queue saw this and whispered to each other.
"Master Fu, what a good official!"
"That's right! If it weren't for us, he wouldn't have sold the land and the house. Now the whole family is staying at a relative's house!"
"If the whole world were filled with honest officials like Lord Fu, the people would be blessed!"
These words reached Si Jinxing's ears without missing a word. She quickly walked up to Fu Tong, snatched the bowl of porridge, and drank it all in one gulp!
Before Fu Tong could say anything, the people nearby started clamoring!
"What are you doing? If you want to eat, go queue up. Why are you trying to steal Master Fu's porridge?"
"Yeah, it's bad enough that she's so ugly, but she's also so unreasonable!"
"You don't know the rules, so don't come to the City God Temple anymore! We don't welcome you!"
Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing pretended to be scared and said:
"Master, please spare me. I...I was just too hungry, so I stole your porridge. Master, please spare me!"
As she spoke, she was about to kneel down, but was stopped by Fu Tong:
"Don't be afraid, girl. It's just a bowl of porridge. I'll serve another one. It's okay.
You can come here to eat porridge in the future. Although you won’t be full, it will help you survive until the imperial court sends disaster relief food. Once you get through this, you will have a good life! "
Si Jinxing nodded and thanked him, then asked:
"Sir, I heard that you bought all this food by selling your land and houses?
If you do this, will it displease the prefect?"
When she said this, Fu Tong was stunned.
He never imagined that the question he had been worried about would be asked by an ugly, young girl.
Fu Tong pondered for a moment and said:
"There's no need to worry about this matter. I'm just doing what a parent official should do.
You are still growing up, so remember to come here every day to drink porridge."
Si Jinxing nodded and turned to leave.
The carriage headed towards the city, but she was still immersed in Fu Tong's words.
That person was able to do such a slap in the face under Jia Wensheng's command, and yet Jia Wensheng didn't touch him...
Si Jinxing was thinking to herself when she suddenly heard a low, almost imperceptible cry from outside the carriage:
"Help!"
