The days when I was an obstetrician and gynecologist in Chang'an
Chapter 944: Eating Hami melon!
Chapter 944: Eating Hami melon! (Thanks to Youleyou for the monthly ticket~)
The matter of building Tianshu was approved in one fell swoop in the court, and after the grand court meeting, the matter spread.
To be honest, this is indeed a good thing.
Firstly, it is because it praises Emperor Wu greatly.
If one's monarch is powerful, then the people under his rule will naturally feel proud of him.
Secondly, building Tianshu will require a lot of people to work, and this work will naturally have to be paid for by the vassal states. Wouldn't this be a bargain for the people of Chang'an City and its vicinity?
After the autumn harvest, there is not much farm work to do, and most people just wait for the New Year.
Now we are recruiting workers to transport copper ore and looking for workers to do the work. Isn't this giving people a chance to earn some money?
Moreover, this Tianshu will take at least a year and a half to build, so it will be a continuous source of money. How can people not be happy?
In short, for the next half month, people in Chang'an were discussing this matter everywhere. The influx of people from all nations who came to pay homage to the emperor was already a big deal, and after this news was released, Chang'an became even more excited.
When Li Sanniang returned home during her rest period, she heard Sister Li say, "I haven't seen your elder brother for seven or eight days. In the past few days, your elder brother has not even come home. He must have moved directly into Wuhoupu.
If he hadn't sent someone to deliver the letter, I would have doubted whether he was still in Chang'an."
As such, Brother Li, a member of the Jinwu Guard, is so busy, which shows how popular Chang'an City is at this time.
It's the obstetrics and gynecology department. In recent days, there have been a lot more women coming to see doctors or give birth, and there are not enough beds in the obstetrics and gynecology department.
"I guess it must be so lively these days.
Sister-in-law, I am going to Xishi. Do you want me to bring anything back from home?
I should be back in the afternoon."
Mrs. Li asked Li Sanniang to buy some good mutton, wanting to make a nourishing mutton soup for Brother Li and send it to Wuhoupu.
In response to what Mrs. Li said, Li Sanniang and Qiuxiang got on the carriage, and Old Eleven whipped the horse and rode out with the clatter of the horse's hooves.
The reason why Li Sanniang insisted on going to the West Market today, even though she finally had a day off, was because she had an appointment with Xing Yu and others.
In other words, Li Sanniang did not have an appointment with Xing Yu, but these strange people had an appointment with Du Qinghui!
Yes, it’s Du Qinghui!
Logically speaking, unless there was an imperial decree, Du Qinghui should have been in charge of the overall situation in the eastern part of Jiangnan.
But Du Qinghui did come to Chang'an and wandered around the great city of Chang'an under Emperor Wu.
Li Sanniang had previously specifically asked Qiuxiang to send a letter to the Bad Guys. When Mr. Tong Bu Ke asked him about this, did he know about it?
Only then did she learn from Mr. Bu Ke that Emperor Wu actually knew about this matter and it was Emperor Wu who tacitly allowed Du Qinghui to come into contact with these strange people.
In this case, Li Sanniang naturally had to go to this dinner. She was really curious about such a legendary person like Du Qinghui.
Of course, she wanted to know why Du Qinghui organized this event. What was his purpose?
After all, some time ago, Li Sanniang had just climbed the mountain to watch a military exercise and was also facing a targeted artillery attack.
When she arrived at the "Laoxianglou", as soon as she got off the carriage, she saw Xing Yu, his wife Xing Niangzi, as well as Xing Dalang and Xing Xiaolang waiting at the door.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Li Sanniang was led by Lady Xing to the private room on the third floor. When she entered, the first thing she saw was a man with a beautiful beard, wearing a scholar's robe and holding a paper fan, standing in front of the window. "Military Advisor Lu?"
The man was a little surprised by what Li Sanniang said, but he saluted very coolly and said, "Doctor Li?"
Lu Yunting was surprised at first. After all, he was well-known in Jiangnan, but how many people in Chang'an knew him?
Lu Yunting called out "Doctor Li" again. It must be because he saw that Li Sanniang actually recognized her, so he thought that it could only be Doctor Li Sanniang who was related to the Bad People. That's why he called out "Doctor Li" to Li Sanniang.
Li Sanniang naturally returned the greeting. She walked into the house and saw Du Qinghui sitting cross-legged on the low couch, wearing a martial arts uniform and taking off his shoes and socks, and eating melon seeds leisurely.
When Li Sanniang saw Du Qinghui's face, she was really surprised.
She had always thought that General Du, who could command the entire East Jiangnan Road and lead troops to fight, should be a strong man with a full beard, a broad forehead, bright eyes, and a height like Brother Li, with a strong body and a pot belly.
As it turned out, the man in front of her, who was happily eating melon seeds, had no beard and was not short. He looked to be over six feet tall, but he was thin. This was very different from the image of a military general that Li Sanniang had imagined.
"Why don't you have a beard?"
Du Qinghui paused for a moment while munching on melon seeds. He put down the seeds helplessly, stood up from the couch, bowed solemnly to Li Sanniang, and then spoke: "You and Xing Yu are really interesting. Why do you ask me why I don't have a beard when you see me?"
Li Sanniang realized at this moment that her words were a bit abrupt. She returned the greeting with an awkward look on her face, and heard Lu Yunting standing at the window saying with a smile: "Doctor Li and Mr. Xing are both sincere people. As soon as they saw the general, they only wanted to ask Hu Zi. Haha."

With Lu Yunting's interruption, Li Sanniang felt less embarrassed.
"Come and have a taste, Miss San. These are salted melon seeds fried with salt. Let's eat more quickly. When everyone arrives soon, we won't be able to get much."
Li Sanniang really didn't expect Du Qinghui to be like this. In fact, she had already turned on her X-ray vision before she entered the house. She could see that there were four people on the roof of the house, each in a corner.
It is not known whether these four people are Emperor Wu’s men or Du Qinghui’s men, or perhaps it is Emperor Wu’s men, but Du Qinghui knows that he is being monitored?
Moreover, she also saw the dagger Du Qinghui hid on his leg, the soft sword at his waist, and the sleeve arrow on the inside of his upper arm.
As for Lu Yunting, he really didn't hide anything on him and looked like a proper military advisor.
When Li Sanniang sat down and ate almost a handful of melon seeds with Du Qinghui and discussed whether they could have braised pork for lunch today, the door finally opened again.
The Ding brothers came in. They were a little confused when they saw Li Sanniang eating melon seeds with Du Qinghui on a low couch. After all, when they two brothers went to Jiangnan Dongdao to see Du Qinghui in the past, they had never sat at the same table with him.
Not long after the Ding brothers sat down and hadn't said a word, the door opened again. This time, the people who came in hand in hand were Shi Le'an and Jiang Yijun.
The two of them got engaged some time ago. This was not a secret deliberately kept secret, but their family backgrounds were both well-known in Chang'an City, and all the upper-class nobles knew about it.
As for Li Sanniang, how did she know?
That was naturally because Jiang Yijun sent her an invitation, inviting her to attend her and Shi Le'an's wedding next year.
Shi Le'an, Du Qinghui and Lu Yunting had met each other before in Jiangnan Dongdao, so they were quite familiar with each other. After greeting each other, they found a seat and sat down.
The last people to enter the room were Xing Yu and Chang Siyuan. Xing Yu closed the door, picked up the teapot on the round table and began to pour tea for everyone.
"Come, have a drink to quench your thirst first. Do you and Miss Jiang want some fruit juice?
Although it is already the end of the month, it is still a bit hot. I will have someone send up two Hami melons for you to try. These are good things that were brought back from the Western Regions with great effort."
