Master Bai waved his hand modestly: "Bencao Yiyuntang has a long history. It has been passed down to my generation for many years. Now it has become a public-private partnership. I can't sit idle. I don't want the foundation passed down by my ancestors to end in my hands. That's why I won't retire..."
Gong Mufeng said, "No, no, no. Master Bai, don't be so modest. I've heard from Yuexi that your level of Chinese medicine is already superb. It's her good fortune that Yuexi can become your disciple..."
After listening to this, Master Bai laughed out loud, "Gong family boy, it seems that Yuexi made the right choice to marry you. However, in my opinion, it is a great fortune for me to be able to accept Yuexi as my apprentice."
While the two were being polite to each other, Gong Ziyan and Gong Xiyun were curious about everything around them. They looked around the clinic, touching this medicine jar and looking at that herbal specimen.
Gong Ziyan picked up a small weight and asked curiously, "Grandpa Bai, what is this used for?"
Master Bai patiently explained: "This is used to weigh the medicinal materials. Only when the weight is accurate can the medicine have the best effect."
At this time, a young man walked into the clinic and was a little hesitant when he saw so many people.
Seeing this, Lin Yuexi quickly stood up and asked, "Are you here to see a doctor? We won't delay you, please go first."
The young man then walked up to Master Bai with confidence and told him about his illness. Master Bai skillfully took his pulse and examined him. Lin Yuexi listened attentively and exchanged a few words with Master Bai from time to time.
Gong Mufeng looked at the focused Lin Yuexi, his heart filled with pride.
After the young man left, Master Bai smiled and said to Lin Yuexi, "Girl, you must have studied medicine a lot in the past few years. Your insights just now really impressed me."
Lin Yuexi said a little embarrassedly: "It's all because of my master's good teaching. I just read more medical books and thought about it more."
After chatting about family matters for a while, Lin Yuexi thought of the Siheyuan: "Master, I want to go see the Siheyuan today and find someone to repair it. If you are free, come with us and give us some pointers."
Master Bai agreed happily: "Okay, it's time for you to come to Jing City to live. How can a small place like Qian'an County accommodate a miracle doctor like you?"
A group of people walked out of "Bencao Yiyuntang", got in the car, and drove towards the courtyard.
After a while, the car stopped steadily at the entrance of the alley. The alley was narrow and deep, and the vehicle could not move forward any further.
The car doors opened one by one, and Lin Yuexi, Gong Mufeng, Gong Ziyan, Gong Xiyun, and Master Bai got out of the car together.
The alley was filled with the smell of fireworks. The old locust trees on the street swayed gently in the cold wind, and their dry branches rubbed against each other, making subtle sounds. They walked slowly along the winding alley. The stone pavement under their feet was a bit bumpy, and every step bore the traces of time.
When the vermilion door appeared in front of him, Gong Mufeng couldn't help but take a deep breath, and it felt like something was surging in his chest.
His eyes were fixed on the door, his heart full of emotion, and he wondered secretly how many lifetimes of blessings he had accumulated to be able to marry a good wife like Lin Yuexi and own this courtyard that carried endless stories.
Master Bai has always been quick and efficient in his work, and he never talks too much. He strode forward, raised his hand to open the gate, then stepped aside to motion for everyone to go in.
As he walked, he said, "Yuexi, I hired someone for you. He will come to clean the yard once a week to save you some effort."
Lin Yuexi listened, her eyes full of gratitude, and she quickly said: "Master Bai, you are so thoughtful. Thank you for your help."
A group of five people walked into the courtyard one after another. Lin Yuexi and Master Bai had both been here before. They looked calm and didn't feel like there was anything special about it.
But it was the first time for Gong Mufeng, Gong Ziyan and Gong Xiyun to step into this courtyard. The three father and sons seemed to have walked into a whole new world. Their eyes were full of novelty and they kept looking around at this ancient courtyard.
The layout of the courtyard is neat and orderly, with blue bricks and gray tiles arranged in an orderly manner. Several red lanterns hanging under the eaves sway gently in the breeze, adding a touch of quaint charm to the courtyard.
I don't know when a few wintersweets appeared in the yard. They are now in bloom. The pale yellow flowers are dotted here and there, emitting a faint fragrance that lingers in the air.
Especially the well in the backyard, which instantly attracted the attention of the father and his two sons and aroused their strong curiosity.
They walked quickly to the well, leaned over and looked down. They saw that the deep water in the well reflected the gradually darkening sky. As the breeze blew, ripples appeared on the water surface, as if hiding countless unknown secrets.
Lin Yuexi stepped into the courtyard and her eyes were instantly attracted by the scene in the courtyard.
Those brand new red lanterns, dazzling, festive and warm, swayed gently in the breeze, as if telling a story that belonged only to this place;
The wintersweet tree next to it has a graceful figure, with pale yellow flowers dotted on its branches. The faint fragrance permeates the air, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Lin Yuexi's eyes widened slightly, full of surprise and emotion. She subconsciously looked at Master Bai again, with deep gratitude and doubt in her eyes.
Master Bai seemed to understand the meaning in her eyes, his mouth corners slightly raised, with a gentle smile on his face, he explained: "Yuexi, after I received your telegram, I hurriedly asked someone to buy this red lantern and hang it up, thinking of adding some festive atmosphere to this yard.
As for this wintersweet tree, it was actually there last time, but it was the wrong season and it didn't bloom. Now it's the right time and it's blooming beautifully. ”
Lin Yuexi listened to Master Bai's words, and the emotion in her heart surged like a tide.
She bit her lower lip slightly, her eyes were red, and she said with a choked voice: "Master, I have been in Beijing for quite a while this time, and there are some things in the county that I need to go back to deal with.
Please help me take a closer look at this yard and see if there are any other places that need repairs. It doesn't matter how much it costs, as long as all the necessary places are repaired.
I will move in here in about a month and settle down here. ”
When Master Bai heard this, a smile instantly blossomed on his face, his eyes narrowed into slits, and he said happily: "Yuexi, I am so happy that you can come to Jingshi! I have been looking forward to such a day. It will be lively in this courtyard with you in the future. Also, when you come to Jingshi, Master can discuss Chinese medicine with you again.
Don't worry, I'll take care of the yard matters. I will definitely take care of them for you. ”
Everyone was walking around in the yard. Gong Ziyan and Gong Xiyun were like two happy little deer, running back and forth between the rooms, exclaiming in surprise from time to time.
