Tie Kui Extra Story (128)
In early February, Xiao worried that Ning Hai's old injury would recur, and urged him to return to Beijing.
Xiao said: "Ruhui said that soaking in hot springs is good for this old injury, so go to the hot spring village and soak in hot springs."
"Soaking in hot springs is so useful, so why do you need an imperial physician?" Anyway, he didn't believe it.
Xiao said again: "Ah Zhan also said that the imperial doctor will be invited to the hot spring village to treat your injuries. Every March, your old injuries will recur. It's better to go back earlier."
Ning Hai said: "It's too cold now, let's go later!" I'm afraid your body won't be able to bear such a cold day. "Normally, it takes half a month to get from here to the capital. Now the road is not easy, it will take more than a month.
Knowing that Ning Hai was worried about him, Xiao Shi said, "You go back first, and I will return to Beijing after the beginning of spring."
Seeing that Ning Hai disagreed, Xiao read it from morning till night. After reading for three days, Ning Hai couldn't stand it and could only agree.
When they left, apart from Chuni and his wife, no one else knew about it.
After Ning Hai left, Mrs. Xiao said to Mrs. Fu, "I'll go back to the county with you!" She didn't like staying here, it was too cold to die. Then the roads are not easy to walk, and it is inconvenient to go out for a walk, let alone go shopping. Staying in the yard all day, and then not being able to understand the words of the people here, almost moldy.
Tiehu didn't want to go back to the county, so Chunni and Duan Dongzi stayed to take care of him, so Xiao and Fu didn't worry about following his wishes.
Hong Bo knew that Ning Hai was gone when he saw Mrs. Fu, so he couldn't help complaining to Mrs. Fu and said, "You didn't tell me when my uncle left."
Mrs. Fu was also very wronged: "Uncle told us the night before he left. I also wanted to keep him, but my aunt said he was going back for treatment. How can you stop me?" I can't afford this responsibility.
Hongbo was shocked: "Uncle is sick?"
Mrs. Fu shook her head and said, "No. But my aunt said that my uncle would get sick in March every year, and I was worried that the doctor here was not good enough, so I asked him to go back earlier."
Since he rushed back to see a doctor, Hongbo didn't say anything: "Awang also changed the wedding date to the beginning of March, just hoping that my uncle could attend." Now this wish has come to naught.
Even if Mrs. Fu didn't take the initiative to come back, he would pick it up. When Ngawang got married, he had to be managed by Mrs. Fu.
Fu said: "Auntie will leave after the beginning of spring. Auntie will definitely be able to attend Awang's wedding.
"
Hongbo nodded, and said another thing to her: "By the way, Ngawang found someone for Caixia."
"Where are you from?"
Hongbo said: "The other party is from Hengzhou, and his hometown there is nearly a thousand miles away from us. The man's parents died and he came here to visit his relatives, and now he works as a waiter in a silk shop. Awang has known him for three years. He is reliable, so I want to promise Caixia to him." Of course, there are conditions for marrying Caixia to him. That is, after getting married, the other party has to take Caixia back to the hometown.
"Are you sure the other party is not married?" No matter how much you hate Duan Caixia, you never thought of making her a concubine. If Duan Caixia and others are concubines, her children will be implicated accordingly.
Hong Bo shook his head and said, "I definitely don't have a wife. She came out at the age of eleven and stayed with us for eight years."
The other party looks ordinary, has mediocre abilities, and is not outstanding in all aspects. Hearing that Awang was willing to marry his younger sister to him, there was nothing else to say, and he went back after he promised to get married.
After listening to Hong Bo's words, Mrs. Fu immediately shook her head: "No way. Such a person can't control Duan Caixia. What if he listens to Duan Caixia and refuses to leave after getting married? Or, what if they ran back after having a bad time in their hometown manage?"
This is not impossible, Hong Bo frowned and said: "Then what do you mean?"
"Marry a running businessman, and take them back to your hometown after getting married." The so-called running businessmen are businessmen who run all over the world. This kind of people may come to them this time, and they will never see them again.
Hongbo disagreed with this opinion, and said, "It's hard to find out the background of running a business. What if the other party has already married a wife? Or, sell her halfway, what should I do if she is sold to such a dirty place?" This kind of thing, he Hear a lot.
"Then don't marry far away, and find her a powerful man who can control her."
This method, Hongbo thinks it is good.
Ning Zhan was working in the palace that day, and when he heard that his father had returned, he would be interviewing him in the imperial study. He ran to his boss to ask for leave, and Ning Zhan went to wait outside the imperial study.
After a while, Ning Hai came out from inside.
Ning Zhan looked at the much older Ning Hai, and his eyes were a little sour: "Father..." The voice had a strong nasal sound.
Ning Hai glanced at him and said with a smile, "He's the father of two children, and he's still so unstable."
"Father, I'm so happy." I hoped day after day, and finally hoped for people back.
After finishing speaking, Ning Zhan said: "Father, you are not in a hurry, why did you and mother come back in such a cold day? I have already made up my mind, and I will pick you up when the spring begins."
Ning Hai said: "Your mother said that the doctor over there was not good at medicine, and she was afraid that my old injury would recur and no one could heal me, so she asked me to come back early." In fact, he didn't trust the doctor over there either.
Hearing the reason, Ning Zhan hurriedly said: "Father, I went to the British government to ask, and the British government said that soaking in hot springs is really useful and can relieve pain. Father, you rest for two days, and I will accompany you to the hot spring village." He After confirming that soaking in hot springs is indeed beneficial to Ning Hai's health, he spent a lot of money to buy a hot spring village. Then renovate Zhuangzi, making sure that Ninghai can live comfortably.
Ning Hai couldn't be happier that his son was so filial.
It's just that neither father nor son expected that Ning Hai's old injury would recur that night.
Seeing Ning Hai rolling on the bed in pain, Ning Zhan couldn't help crying. No wonder her mother kept asking her father to retire, it turned out that his father suffered so much when he was ill.
The gate of the palace was locked, and both Imperial Physician Zhang and Imperial Physician Qin, who was best at treating injuries and illnesses, could not come out of the palace. If you want to invite, you have to alert the emperor. Ning Zhan thought for a while, then ran to Bao's mansion to find the doctor Bai who lived in Bao's house, and begged him to come and give Ning Hai a diagnosis and treatment.
In the middle of the night, it was freezing cold, and Doctor Bai didn't want to get up from the warm bed: "Go tomorrow morning." Two hours later, no one will die.
Bao Xiaoxiao said: "Old Bai, Ruonan said that Uncle Anyang is the Queen Mother's uncle. If something happens to him, the Queen Mother will be very sad."
Only then did Doctor Bai reluctantly get up.
Seeing Ning Hai's pain, Doctor Bai gave Ning Zhan a dark green pill: "Put it in warm water, and feed it to him when it melts."
Ning Zhan hugged Ning Hai and said, "Father, bear with it, it won't hurt so much after taking this medicine."
Ning Hai swallowed most of a bowl of medicine.
Physician Bai was very impressed, Uncle Anyang's ability to bear the pain was strong enough, he originally estimated that Ning Hai could only drink half of it at most.
Not long after drinking the medicine, Ning Hai fell into a deep sleep.
Doctor Bai said to Ning Zhan, "Take off all your father's clothes. Well, you don't need to take off your obscene pants."
Seeing that Doctor Bai was about to get an injection, Ning Zhan hurriedly said, "Doctor Bai, don't you need to check my father's pulse?" It felt a bit hasty to give the needle before the pulse was detected.
Upon hearing this, Imperial Physician Bai inserted the golden needle back and said, "Since you don't trust me, then find someone you can trust!"
Ning Zhan was a little dumbfounded. He had heard that Doctor Bai had an odd temper before, but he had no contact with her. Today is considered to have a personal experience.
It's a pity that Ning Zhan apologized and the other party didn't accept it. Pack up everything, carry the medicine box and prepare to leave.
Ning Zhan had no choice but to say: "Lord Bai, please, for the sake of the empress dowager, let my father rule me!"
Doctor Bai glared at Ning Zhan, and then reluctantly put down the medicine box: "If it wasn't for the Queen Mother's sake, would you think I would give him an injection?"
Ning Zhan smiled all over his face, not daring to say anything else. I'm afraid that if I talk too much, I don't know what to say to offend this old man.
After putting the golden needles on Ning Hai, Doctor Bai sat on the chair and panted, "I'm exhausted." Every time he finished putting the golden needles on, he was as tired as a dog.
Ning Zhan asked cautiously: "Doctor Bai, can my father's injury be cured?"
With a snort, Imperial Physician Bai said, "Do you think I'm a Great Luo Immortal?"
After getting up, Tai Physician Bai put things into the medicine box and said, "The consultation fee is 10,000 taels."
Ashao's mouth opened wide. Ten thousand taels of silver for consultation, this, this is too exaggerated.
Ah Zhan had also heard that Doctor Bai charged a high consultation fee, but he did not expect it to be so expensive. But he didn't dare to say more, for fear of making him angry again: "Wait a minute, I'll go get the banknote right away."
Doctor Bai saw that he didn't say that the consultation was expensive, let alone haggle over the price, so his complexion looked better: "Just send it to my house tomorrow." He is developing a medicine recently, but it can't achieve the expected effect no matter what. Because Master Yang and Ruonan are good at pharmaceuticals, he asked him to discuss it together. For the past few days, I've been living in Bao's mansion.
Carrying the medicine box on his back, Doctor Bai said: "I can draw out the cold air on his body. But the root cause of his previous injury cannot be eradicated, so he can only take good care of it. If he doesn't take good care of it, it will be like last night. It hurts like hell, and it lasts longer and longer."
After sending off Doctor Bai, Ah Shao said to Ning Zhan with a look of surprise, "He didn't even take the pulse of Uncle, how did he know that Uncle has a severe cold?"
Ning Zhan said: "You ask me, how do I know? But although he is young and has a weird temper, his medical skills are also among the best in the Imperial Hospital." For ordinary diseases, no one would look for him. Only intractable diseases or intractable diseases would go to him.
"That's true. Uncle Tongcheng took the medicine prescribed by the doctor to no avail, and the pain was still unbearable. But after taking one of his pills, he fell asleep." Without comparison, you don't know the difference.
Ning Zhan said: "It's not any doctor who dares to ask for a consultation fee of 10,000 yuan." Fortunately, their family has a big business, and ordinary people can't afford such an expensive consultation fee.
A Shao said: "The fee for seeing a doctor is 10,000 taels, and he doesn't even keep a prescription."
As long as Doctor Bai can save his father from suffering, Ning Zhan is willing to pay any amount of money, "I think he will come again later." Otherwise, he wouldn't have said that he would bring out the cold. .
