Chapter 155: Strong as an Ox, but in vain
"Mother misses you too." Yuan Yuhe smiled and patted her shoulder. "Are you going back to the Prince's Mansion this afternoon?"
Ming Yuelin turned to look at Ji Rangzhou: "Do you want to go back? If you want to go back, go back alone."
Ji Rangzhou was silent for a moment, "I'll go back with you tomorrow."
How could he leave his newlywed wife at her parents' home and go back home alone?
"Okay, you can go to court with your elder brother and the others tomorrow morning."
Ji Rangzhou nodded, "Yeah."
Yuan Yuhe tried to hold back her laughter. The way her daughter and son-in-law got along was quite cute.
Ming Yuelin let go of Yuan Yuhe's hand and ran towards Shi Jianli happily, "Sister Li, did you miss me?"
"Yes." Seeing that her eyes and eyebrows seemed to be filled with joy, Shi Jianli couldn't help smiling and pinched her face.
No wonder Mingzhao likes to pinch her face, she also likes to pinch Lin sister's.
"Has my nephew been well behaved these past two days?"
"Yeah, very good."
Based on the principle of not favoring one over the other, Mingyuelin went to "provoke" Zheng Leyun again, asking him all kinds of questions.
Ji Rangzhou looked at her cheerful expression, and his brows softened unconsciously.
On September 20th, a vigorous old man with white hair entered the mansion with about 10 to 20 men, and Tian Jing followed behind.
The old man put his hands behind his back, looked left and right, and commented: "Your house is not much different from a dozen years ago."
"Yes, the layout of the Duke's Mansion has not changed for decades." Tian Jing replied respectfully.
Ming Zhou and Zheng came back from outside. When they saw the old man, they thought he looked familiar. After taking a few looks, they asked with a smile, "Are you Mr. Zhang?"
Zhang Lao turned around and pulled his arm over. "Third boy, come here, let me take your pulse."
Ming Zhouhe obediently let him feel his pulse. "Why did you suddenly return to Beijing?"
He was born weak and often fell ill when he was young. The family invited the genius doctor Zhang Yan to treat him and his mother, and to replenish their energy. Only then did he gradually become like an ordinary person.
"Your eldest brother sent someone to look for me. He said his wife was pregnant and he had to get me back. His subordinate had been trying to get me back for a long time. I found out everything on the way. You will not be single next month, will you?"
Ming Zhouhe didn't expect that his elder brother would actually invite Mr. Zhang back to Beijing. "Yes, it's a good opportunity for you to have a drink at the wedding too."
Zhang Lao threw his hand away, "You are as strong as an ox. It's a waste of my energy to check your pulse."
Hearing this comment, Ming Zhouhe didn't know whether to be happy or not. He asked helplessly, "After so many years, how did Mr. Zhang recognize it was me at first glance?"
"I'm not old and blind yet. You've simply grown up. You're not much different from when you were little."
Zhang Siyi, carrying his medicine box, bowed to Ming Zhouhe and smiled gently, a smile that seemed to carry a hint of herbal medicine. "It's been a long time since we last heard from each other, Ah He."
Ming Zhouhe patted his shoulder and said, "Shall we play two games of hand-to-hand tomorrow?"
"good."
"You lead the way. Now that we're here, let me take your sister-in-law's pulse first." The old man turned around twice on the spot, vaguely remembered the way, and walked towards Langganyuan.
"Don't you remember the way?" Ming Zhouhe followed him. "I usually don't call my sister-in-law my sister-in-law."
"Why? Then what do you call?"
"Call me cousin."
"Hey, with this relationship, I wonder who's taking advantage of whom, you or your elder brother." Old Zhang chuckled. "Call her cousin, let me think, is she your aunt's daughter?"
The grandfather and grandson went wherever the mountains went, and they were not well-informed.
"yes."
"What is your uncle's current official rank?"
"My uncle and aunt passed away six years ago."
"Just pretend I didn't ask." Old Zhang waved his hand.
When they entered Langgan Courtyard, they saw Shi Li sitting in a rocking chair in the yard reading a book, while Mingzhao was sitting beside her watching her, giving her some warm water or feeding her food from time to time.
Xianyue came over and said, "Miss, the third young master has brought two guests here."
Shi Jianli sat down and said, "Guest? Please come in."
Mingzhao also put his hand behind her waist to support her.
After Grandpa Zhang and his grandson came in, Shi Jianli saw the medicine box behind Zhang Siyi and felt relieved.
It seems to be a doctor.
Mingzhao even stood up and saluted Zhang Lao, saying, "Thank you for the long journey back to Beijing."
"You know how exhausted I am. From Bozhou to the capital, it's no exaggeration to say it's a long way from home. I got there in less than three months. It's killing me. But it's okay. I won't rush if it snows. I'll freeze to death."
Zhang Lao was huffing. After he finished speaking, he looked at Shi Jianli and his expression softened a little. "Little girl, come here. Stretch out your hand. I'll take your pulse."
Shi Jianli silently stretched out her hand.
The old man muttered as he felt the man's pulse: "You look healthy. You and the third boy look a bit alike. No wonder you're cousins."
Shi Jianli looked at Ming Zhouhe, and then at Ming Zhaohuan.
"This is the miracle doctor Zhang Yan. My second aunt was injured when she gave birth to my third brother, and my third brother was also born weak. He is the one who took care of my second aunt and my third brother." Mingzhao explained.
Shi Jianli asked the old man in front of her, "What kind of tea do you like? I'll have someone prepare some."
"It's all right. I'm used to crossing mountains and rivers and being a wild man. I can drink anything like a cow."
Soon, Zhang Lao withdrew his hand. "You are in very good health. I have examined the pulses of many women in the inner chambers, but few have had pulses as steady as yours."
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang." Shi Jianli smiled.
"Yes." Old Zhang nodded. "I've seen the patient too. Find a place for me to lie down. My old bones are almost falling apart."
Ming Zhouhe smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang, please come with me. I will make arrangements for you."
The three of them came and left quickly. Shi Jianli pulled Ming Zhaohuan's sleeve and asked, "Did you invite Mr. Zhang back to Beijing?"
"Yes." Mingzhao took her into his arms and said, "Mr. Zhang is the best at parasympathy and gynecology. Please ask him to come back. I will feel more at ease when you give birth."
He couldn't bear the pain of childbirth for her, so this was all he could do.
Shi Jianli kissed his cheek, and he rubbed her head with a smile. "Yaoyao, it's been a while since you practiced archery, right? How about I accompany you to the martial arts arena to practice archery tomorrow?"
It's just archery, not a big action, just be careful.
"good."
As a great benefactor of the Duke's Mansion, when Mr. Zhang came to the mansion, the old lady hosted a banquet in his honor.
After Mr. Zhang entered the Duke's Mansion, he spent the whole day debating medical treatment with several palace doctors in the pharmacy. The first thing they did every day when they woke up was to ask Mr. Zhang for advice on medical skills. Mr. Zhang was not stingy and taught them everything he knew.
A doctor must have his own strengths, let alone those who were invited by the Anguo Mansion to serve as the court doctors. The condition for Mr. Zhang to teach them everything he knew was that these court doctors would teach his grandson his strengths.
So, Zhang Siyi began to seek lessons from several palace doctors every day.
In October, crickets come under the bed.
Ming Zhouhe's wedding was on October 10th, meaning perfect. The East Palace still had new decorations, and the West Palace had hung red silk.
On October 10th, the bridal sedan arrived at the door, firecrackers were blasted, and the house was full of guests and friends. Ming Zhou and he smiled as they carried the bride down from the bridal sedan and paid their respects to the heaven and earth.
Mingzhao and Mingzhouqing stopped drinking since their wives became pregnant. There were two less people to stop Mingzhou from drinking. Mingzhouwu and Mingzhoulu complained bitterly when they stopped his colleagues from drinking.
