Chapter 48
Zhang Sijiu soon saw fellow villager Yang Yuanding.

They came in a carriage.

A lot of people came down from above.

Zhang Sijiu counted the heads and thought it should be Yang Yuanding and his family.

A neat five.There is also a woman.

After Yang Yuanding got off the car, he began to look around, as if looking for someone.

Soon he locked the target, enthusiastically waved towards Liu Shu with great joy, and shouted loudly: "Si Jiu!!!"

He reacted like this, causing many people to look at him in unison.

Zhang Sijiu almost had a panic attack.

Faced with such enthusiasm, Zhang Sijiu was too embarrassed to pretend to be dead, so he raised his hand and shook it helplessly as a response.

Seeing this response, Yang Yuanding immediately smiled brightly again.He turned his head and asked his mother, Mrs. Zhou, for instructions: "Mom, I'm going to have a word with Si Jiu!"

Mrs. Zhou also saw the wooden barrels and Zhang Sijiu under the big willow tree, so she simply took the hand of her youngest son: "It's still early to worship the gods, so I'll go and have a look."

She was at home every day, listening to Yang Yuanding talking about this "Si Jiu", and her ears were almost callused.

Curiosity is also growing.

The person is right in front of you right now, don't you just want to take a look right away?
Yang Yuanding didn't think there was anything wrong, but he still told his mother: "It's fine, but don't ask too many questions, in case Si Jiu gets embarrassed—"

Zhou smiled: "That's right, it seems like I don't know how to be polite."

However, Zhou also found it strange that the youngest son was so protective of his little lady: before in Tokyo, he had never seen him treat his little cousins ​​so well!
So, without Yang Yuanding realizing it, Zhou's curiosity reached another level.

Yang Yuanding happily dragged Mrs. Zhou to the willow tree.

If he hadn't considered Zhou, he would have wanted to run fast.

Young people are so energetic!

And Zhou felt like he was being dragged by a rampaging donkey, so he couldn't help speeding up——

Zhang Sijiu watched Yang Yuanding walking quickly all the way.

Then it was visible to the naked eye that the beautiful woman who acted like a weak willow not only lost her elegance and slowness, but also forcibly changed into a uniform shape of a husky——

Zhang Sijiu suddenly felt sympathetic to the other party.

In the end, Zhang Sijiu walked forward for a short distance to greet them.

The beautiful woman was already panting slightly.

The little maid who followed the two of them was fine.But also a little breathless.

Only Yang Yuanding looked as usual, with an excited expression on his face: "Si Jiu, what drink did you make? I have been busy drawing pictures for the past two days, so I didn't come here. Quickly bring me a bowl, and I'll try it!"

He's not being rude at all.

Zhang Sijiu also responded naturally, and subconsciously turned his head to get a bowl to scoop him a drink.

Panting, Zhou looked at the brown-haired little lady who was a full head shorter than her son, and was completely shocked: This is Si Jiu? !Why do you look so pitiful!
Yes, from Zhou's first glance, he knew that Zhang Sijiu's family was in a bad situation and he was not in good health.

But the other party acted naturally, without any timidity or shrinkage, and looked generous, not like a poor family with a bad family background.

Dazed, Zhang Sijiu had already scooped up a bowl of light bamboo leaf syrup with a small gourd ladle and handed it to Yang Yuanding: "This disheveled drink is best in summer. Give it to this big lady."

Then he scooped up the moat root syrup and gave it to Yang Yuanding: "Try this, this is the fresh moat root we dug by the stream, next time I will take you to dig it, you can chew it and eat it."

In the end, Zhang Sijiu even gave half a bowl to the little maid.

Anyway, looking at it like that, there is no distressed expression.

But Zhou knew that the water was probably for sale.

Yang Yuanding took a sip, the taste was slightly sweet, with a refreshing grassy taste, and it was cold all morning, and there was no heat at this moment, which immediately refreshed him.

He exclaimed happily: "It's delicious!"

Zhang Sijiu didn't even expect him to come up with any suggestions for improvement——

Yang Yuanding poured a bowl of water in two gulps, and then remembered to introduce his own mother: "This is my mother, surnamed Zhou, Si Jiu, just call him Aunt Zhou."

Zhang Sijiu got stuck in his mouth when he said "Mrs. Zhou".

She looked at Zhou Shi hesitantly: Isn't this bad?Too close?
Mrs. Zhou smiled and said, "Very good. Jiuniang just call me Aunt Zhou."

So Zhang Sijiu called out: "Aunt Zhou."

Mrs. Zhou responded, then raised the bowl in his hand, and said with a slight smile, "What kind of drink is this? It tastes clear and sweet, but not too sweet. It quenches your thirst."

"It's light bamboo leaf drink." Zhang Sijiu explained: "It can calm the anger, clear up the drench and diuretic, and drinking it in summer is also good."

Well, light bamboo leaf decoction can also treat cough caused by lung heat.There is a certain auxiliary effect.

Zhang Sijiu prescribed this to patients before.

So familiar.

Zhou was a little surprised: "Jiu Niang knows so much."

Originally, when she heard Yang Yuanding say it, she thought it was the youngest son who was exaggerating, but now that she heard it, she seemed to really understand it.

Zhang Sijiu said humbly: "I want to be a doctor, so I learned more about it. In fact, there are not many, just happen to be me."

Hearing Zhang Sijiu's modesty, Yang Yuanding's scalp felt numb: You don't have to be humble, big brother.Actually, I think you know a lot.

Mrs. Zhou has already chatted with Zhang Sijiu: "I think you plan to sell these today? How much is a bowl?"

Zhang Sijiu had set the price a long time ago: "One bowl costs one. However, these bowls are for Sanlang and my aunt to drink."

When Mrs. Zhou said to give money, it was hard to say it immediately, and she felt that Zhang Sijiu was more sensible and generous——

Yang Yuanding didn't think there was anything wrong with drinking two bowls - what kind of friendship did he have with Zhang Sijiu?That was a deadly friendship!
However, he still wanted to do some business for Zhang Sijiu.

Immediately he smiled and said: "Mother, Si Jiu invited us to drink, and we drank as soon as we finished. However, father and elder brother and second elder brother haven't drunk yet. It's so hot—won't you buy them a bowl?"

He even encouraged: "My father has been very angry recently, he should drink two more bowls of this light bamboo leaf drink!"

Yang Yuanding secretly thought: Don't scold me again!

How could Mrs. Zhou fail to see the thoughts of her youngest son?Immediately smiled: "All right, I'll buy a few bowls, and you and Qiuying will send them there."

Qiuying is the name of the little maid.

Zhang Sijiu wanted to decline, but Yang Yuanding stopped her: "Don't give it away, Sijiu. I'll drink it as soon as I drink it. If you give it away again, I won't dare to drink yours anymore!"

So Zhang Sijiu had no choice but to give up, instead of refusing back and forth with Yang Yuanding.

In this way, driver Zhang opened the door before the sun rose completely.And as soon as it opened, there were nine bowls, not only the Yang family, but also the people who followed in the yamen and the servants around them.

 I'm finally home.Next update, around eleven o'clock~
