Jiang Ling was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, "Don't worry, Doctor He, I'll take you there right away."
Someone harnessed the carriages, and Jiang Ling let He Zui get on first. Worried that he might not be able to adapt, she also sat in one with him. She also asked Zizhen and Ye Song to accompany them.
He Zui smiled at this time and quietly put the note back into the medical book.
He lifted the curtain of the carriage and took a look at the luxurious Zhou Mansion. He then thought of the servants and maids saluting Jiang Ling just now, and a hint of discomfort flashed in his eyes.
As expected, I still don’t like the capital.
He can't handle this.
Uncle Wang and Aunt Liu were conscientious and responsible. When it rained heavily yesterday, they ran out to cover the fragile flowers and plants with tarpaulins. So when Jiang Ling took He Zui to the small courtyard, the whole courtyard was full of vitality after the rain.
The flowers are still blooming brightly and dazzlingly, and the flowers and plants in the yard are all damp from the rain. As soon as you step in, you can feel the refreshing air and the fragrance of flowers penetrating into your chest, making you feel relaxed and happy.
He Zui's eyes lit up, and he nodded with a smile, "Your little yard is really nice."
"That's right." Jiang Ling felt proud.
She took He Zui around inside and outside, and led him to the spacious and comfortable east wing, where he stayed.
"Wait a minute." He Zui pointed to the chair next to him, "Sit down."
Jiang Ling sat down obediently and stretched out her wrist.
Although he knew Jiang Ling was in good health just by looking at her face, he still felt at ease after taking her pulse himself.
After a moment, He Zui nodded, "Yeah, you're in good shape."
Jiang Ling smiled, "I'm in good health."
She stood up and walked out, wanting him to change his clothes first, but He Zui stopped her.
"Here you go." He handed over a letter and a bag of change.
Jiang Ling knew what he was planning at a glance.
Taking a big step back, he said, "Doctor He, I won't be happy if you do this."
She is not a landlady, why should she collect rent from him?
This guy really knows everything clearly.
He Zui frowned and insisted on giving it to her.
Jiang Ling's frown deepened even more than his, and she pouted, pretending to be unhappy and said, "I'm serious, take it back now, I'm going to get angry, and from now on we'll just pretend we don't know each other."
After a few rounds of pushing and pulling, He Zui couldn't persuade her anymore, so he had to sigh and take the silver back.
"Hey, Xin."
He handed the letter over and explained, "Wanran sent it."
Jiang Ling took it with surprise and saw the words "Jiang Ling's Personal Address" written on the envelope.
This was the first time she saw Wanran's handwriting.
Unlike his graceful and unrestrained dancing, his handwriting is neat and quite rigid.
She smiled and said, "Looks like you've settled in." Turning around, she said, "Please change your clothes. Thank you."
He Zui watched her leave the door, looked at the purse in his hand, sighed and smiled.
Wanran also wrote him a letter.
It just arrived yesterday and he has already read it.
The letter once again expressed gratitude for his detoxification and even sent him a silver note of fifty taels.
She was afraid that he would not accept it, saying that he earned it by dancing and helping others in the place where he was staying, and it was all hard-earned money, not money he brought from the palace.
He also said that he would not live here forever, which immediately discouraged him from sending the banknotes back to the original address.
In addition, Wanran said something at the end of the letter that made He Zui's eyes suddenly red.
"I have received the second portrait. Brother Zhang Ye did a great job. I like it very much and will keep it together with the first one. I also ask Doctor He to express Wanran's gratitude to Brother Zhang Ye."
He Zui's hands were shaking as he held the letter paper.
He still remembers.
The first painting is still well kept.
He said he liked Zhang Ye's paintings and thanked Zhang Ye...
He Zui wiped his tears carelessly, laughing while crying, and read the letter for a long time.
Wanran discovered the painting on the third day after leaving Beijing and understood who He Zui was.
When buying the paintings, Zhang Ye told him that he had a close friend and that he painted these paintings for him.
He smiled and said, "My friend loves to study medicine and is quite talented. When he treats others, he is so proud and always calls himself a miracle doctor, hahaha."
I still remember that scene.
The ragged man was still standing in the snow after the sun had set, his face and hands were red from the cold, but when he talked about these things, his eyes were as bright as day.
Wanran then understood why the eccentric He Zui agreed to detoxify him.
Moreover, Wanran seemed to understand why he lived alone in Yunwu Peak, why his temper was so changeable, and why he looked sad from time to time.
I guess Zhang Ye met with an accident during that turmoil and is no longer alive.
He didn't want to bring up He Zui's scars, so he said tactfully, "Please convey my gratitude to him."
On the way out of Beijing, he found a temple and reverently burned three incense sticks for Zhang Ye, hoping that he would be happy and healthy in heaven and still have that bright and beautiful smile.
This is the tenderness that belongs only to Wanran.
-
The sky cleared up after the rain, and it was fresh and cool. The scenery in the small courtyard was even more beautiful. Jiang Ling sat on the stone bench and opened Wanran's letter.
"Zhan Xinjia."
"Jiang Ling, it's been over three months since we last met. Are you doing well?"
"I'm afraid it would be inconvenient to send this letter to the Zhou residence, so I've asked Doctor He to pass it on to you. I hope you don't mind."
"I've now settled in a place called Li County, where pears are grown in abundance. They are sweet and juicy. The people here told me that pears are their lifeblood. They provide food and clothing during famines, and can be traded to increase profits during good years. That's why they named it Li County, which sounds like Li County."
