Walking into the Red Mansion starts from the maid

Chapter 163
The body that had been leaning out suddenly turned back. Seeing Grandma Li running in front of Lai Shangrong's carriage like a ghost, Zhao Lu trotted up and couldn't help but said angrily: "Old man, please slow down, this is a beast. Shocked." You don’t care if you get caught!”

When listening to Grandma Li cursing, Zhao Lu also wanted to imitate the gesture of scolding others.Although she was supporting the old lady at the moment, her mind was not here. She was walking carelessly, as if she was just doing a good deed to help the old lady cross the road.

Lai Shangrong was sitting behind the coachman. He had been away from the capital for a long time. When he saw Nanny Li, he didn't recognize her, so he scolded her and cursed in a low voice, "get away from me" and so on.

When the driver saw this, he was always careful not to bump into Grandma Li on the edge of the car, so he didn't see Zhao Lu take out the pepper water.

Lai Shangrong didn't recognize Nanny Li, but Nanny Li recognized him. Now when she saw Lai Shangrong scolding her, she started to pester her a little bit: "Brother Lai really leads the way, that Zhao Deng'er in the lead!!!" "

The horse that was walking slowly in the downtown area neighed, its hooves were restless, and its body was raised high with the shaft of the carriage raised high. The coachman was okay, his feet were buckled on the crossbar, and he was hurriedly controlling the horse, for fear of being caught in the busy city. Run among them.

Lai Shangrong was miserable. From far away, Zhao Lu could hear his body hitting the wall of the car, making a muffled groan, followed by a crash and collapse. Two boxes fell onto the road from behind, scattering like flowers. The ground was full of equipment.

Two drops of chili water with alkaline noodles accidentally fell on my hand. It was like sparks splashing on the meat, which made me grin a little.

But Grandma Li was there, watching the carriage galloping. She didn't dare to show it, so she said sadly: "Grandma Li, what's the matter with you? Uncle Lai has an official status. If you scare the horse in the street, you are not afraid to call Jing Zhao." Yin La goes and gets punished!”

In this way, the enthusiasm of those around who were eager to rush to rob stopped, and everyone retreated in fear. The people did not fight with the officials, and in addition to the recent uproar about the theft of imperial gifts, no one dared to take a step closer to the cloth all over the ground. .

Grandma Li was also confused, "What official position?"

"I didn't! You have to testify for me, I didn't!" The old woman was a little scared, hurriedly waved her hands, and hurriedly grabbed Zhao Lu's sleeve, as if she wouldn't let go until he could distinguish clearly.

Zhao Lu pretended to be well-meaning and stepped forward to pick up the scattered cloths one by one. He whispered: "The guards will be here in a moment. Please help people put things away. It will be easier for you to explain when people ask."

How 'respecting the old and loving the young', she didn't feel any guilt in her heart, no matter if she was really stupid or fake, it was not a good thing anyway.

The wooden box was filled to the brim with scattered fabrics. If Zhao Lu hadn't known that he had placed a bonsai base underneath, there would have only been so many items.

The servants of the Lai family arrived very quickly.

Grandma Li seemed to be in good and bad spirits. She was carefully folding the cloth and continuing to stuff it into the box.Zhao Lu stepped aside early, folded his hands, and waited with interest for the Lai family's guards to dig out the royal gift from the box.

But it's a pity that they neither listened to Nanny Li's flattering words nor rummaged through the boxes and cages in the street. Only two people were left to carry away the boxes, and the rest hurriedly chased the uncle's carriage.

Really sorry.

However, I felt happy for a moment, it was okay, the on-site proof was too sufficient, even if I looked for someone, I couldn't find someone to blame.

Just for a moment, there was a huge ups and downs of shock and surprise. Grandma Li had long forgotten that she wanted to find trouble. When she came to her senses, Zhao Lu was already pedaling his bicycle, following the large army, leisurely heading west to the camp. went.

The wind in June was already very hot, and the short skirt of the linen was specially made loose and breathable. Compared with the three-layered inner and outer three-layered condom in Jia's house, it was already much cooler. Zhao Lu mentally suggested this a dozen times before he realized that it was cool. The breeze comes in through the sleeves, dissipating a little of the heat wave.

The guard at the city gate still smiled bitterly and checked the things on the car. He rummaged through the medicinal materials, and the fragrance of the medicine came to his nose. After confirming that there was no inclusion, he let the person out.

Penghua curled up on the fender at the rear of the car, dozing off and on while everyone, shirtless and lightly dressed, headed out of the city.

The mountains are green and the rivers are winding. After leaving the city, the further you go, the less people are around you. Everyone talks louder than when we first entered the city. They are laughing and joking. They talk about catching fish in the pond when they were young. A very tall carp.

When he was able to brag vigorously, the doctor who was familiar with him joked: "Blow it, you can do it. This is because none of us have seen a big fish. You were born in Jiangnan and you can fool us."

Zhao Lu and Peng Hua both dressed up as men to show off, with no trace of makeup, and they didn't have a coy personality, so everyone didn't shy away from it and asked with a smile: "Has Xiao Zhao ever seen a fish as tall as a man?"

"I've never seen it. When I was a kid, my family had to get water from caves. Not to mention fish, there were no shrimps." Zhao Lu laughed, thinking that he had never seen a fish as tall as a person. After all, there are all kinds of fish in the aquarium. Big fish are taller than one person.

"Oh, if I had known better, I would have kept the leftover bones so that everyone could see and see, regret, regret." The man smiled and shook his head, making a series of brisk horse hoofbeats. Knowing that there was no refutation, he Talking about the recent border troops stationed nearby.

Someone answered, "It's really strange. How could the border troops be stationed in Beijing for so long? I've never heard of it before."

"Who knows, do you think Young Prince Mu wants to see each other in Beijing? After all, these families have many marriages in Beijing. Maybe we can have a drink."

"Dream, you, even if it's just a date, three matchmakers and six appointments can't be completed in a year? What kind of water and wine do you drink?"

"..."

Zhao Lu felt a little tired. He hung his legs down on the downhill road and felt the breeze blowing on his face. After taking a long breath of relief, he turned around and saw that he was already a hundred and twenty steps beyond the carriage, so he looked for a place. The shade of the tree rests on the ground.

I was rubbing my legs happily when I suddenly heard a rustle in the forest and shouted, "Who is it?"

There was no reply, but her voice alerted the medical staff around the carriage, who rushed to catch up, "What's wrong?"

Zhao Lu looked around and was about to think that it might have been caused by the wind, when he saw two people emerging from the grass in the drainage ditch down the slope. One was a tall and thin man wearing gray work clothes. He looked like someone from a nearby post station, his face filled with tears. It's helpless.

The other one is short and round, with bushy eyebrows, triangular eyes and a bald head, which makes him look a bit uncomfortable.Xiaoyuan climbed up, wearing black boots, with a restless face, mumbling something unknown.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" The doctors and soldiers were also soldiers, and the bandit aura around them was not much less than that of Xiao Yuan. Two of them even had swords hanging on their waists, and they didn't look frightened at all.

Yichen is a low-key official. If you have to compare it, he is probably similar to the non-staff personnel at the grassroots level in later generations of towns and villages. He has less money and is far away from home. He has to be ready to receive the big shots who come and go. He is so nervous that he doesn't know how much he will suffer.

With a quick glance, he recognized that everyone was from the West Camp. His pale face was not illuminated by the dusk glow, so he guessed that this short guy was not an ordinary idler.

Seeing Aoyuan drawing the knife, Yichen panicked, fearing that he would be angered again if something happened, he quickly asked in fear: "Sir, please calm down, I...this...someone is injured. There is nothing we can do. Sirs, just go ahead." OK, can you send someone to a nearby village to find a chiropractor..."

Ai Yuan placed the knife on Yi Chen's back, the threat was self-evident.When everyone saw it, they looked at each other angrily. Even the lowest official was still an official of His Majesty and an official of the Emperor. How could he allow foreigners to threaten him like this?

Zhao Lu was a little angry when he saw it. This appearance and accent inevitably aroused a lot of national emotions, so he asked firmly: "We are the doctor, what do you want to do with the doctor?"

There were two bags of arsenic in her space, and she thought that if the Japanese were really injured, it would be better to poison them to death in one fell swoop.

"It's been saved, it's been saved..." The postmaster felt the coldness on his back and thought to himself that he really didn't look at the almanac when he went out today. This Japanese envoy is not a good person. He only knows how to cause trouble for others. He just stayed at the post station and waited. Why don't you take a stroll after being summoned by His Majesty?

Yi Chen suppressed his dissatisfaction and flattered the eldest Hu Junrong: "It turns out to be medical officers. Oh, God bless me. Please help me. We have a messenger running around here, called a animal trap... "

Although I didn’t know which country the envoy was from, everyone became friendly with the host’s kindness.

However, the animal trap can be light or heavy, and it is also a messenger. Ordinary doctors can only stay away from it. Hu Junrong did not dare to guarantee it. He looked at the post minister and said: "We go out for other things, and we don't need anything." It’s not complete, it doesn’t work, we don’t dare to vouch for you, we’re just doing our best.”

"Yes Yes……"

Thinking of the scimitar, Yi Chen felt as if his back was cold, but he didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction on his face. He could only lower his head and kept responding.

Xiao Yuan muttered a series of rapid words that no one could understand, but Zhao Lu heard two classic curse words in a row. He retracted his palms into his sleeves and silently began to take out arsenic.

Everyone there worked together to lift the injured out of the ditch.After walking in, Zhao Lu saw the bright red calves, his eyes looking up, the same small eyes and bald head. He knew at a glance that he was from Japan.

"There's no hope, just wait to die." She whispered.

Hu Junrong lifted up his clothes, took a look at the injury, and looked back at Zhao Lu inexplicably, as if to say: Don't be petty in front of the guests. This new animal trap shone with a cold light, and there was even a risk of tetanus. None, why is there no hope?

However, he didn't intend to let Zhao Lu get started. Everyone present was a serious person, but Zhao Lu was just a carrot. She couldn't afford to have any worries.

Hu Junrong and two medical staff used their own strength to remove the animal trap. The blood was pouring happily, and there was no tourniquet, so they had to tear off a piece of clothing from the injured person and perform an amputation.

Seeing the gurgling blood, Wai Yuan looked anxious. He gathered around Hu Junrong. If the doctors hadn't stopped him, his scimitar might have hit Hu Junrong's back.

However, Yichen breathed a sigh of relief. He was a dead Taoist friend but not a poor Taoist. He wiped his forehead, turned around and saw the dissatisfaction and eagerness on Zhao San's face. He just thought he was a child from someone's family, and hurriedly coaxed: "The little girl is really born with Yuxue." Cute, it would be bloody for just such an occasion, so why not go to the car and wait."

To be honest, Hu Junrong didn't ask her to take action, which made her quite angry. She became impatient with Yi Chen and asked in a low voice: "Why do Japanese people appear here? You know, the Western Camp is right ahead. "

You are not allowed to stay near the military area. A hat designed to spy on the military situation, no matter which country you are envoy from, according to Feng Zhengping and others' temperament, might become a trigger for artillery fire.

Yichen thought for a while, this girl's father might be the one who was present, so after all, they were from the same family, so it didn't matter if he said so.

So he whispered: "It's our Majesty's grace. What do you mean by granting a thousand households to foreigners? No, in recent years, Japanese people have taken the opportunity to come to Beijing every year and take turns to see their thousand households. We have a lot of people and property, and we even rented a field in Jinling. Why send some hibiscus paste here... Ouch..."

He thought that it would be better to let everyone know that there are many Japanese people and they are hateful, so that His Majesty would not reward them every year and they would show off their power every year.

"What?" Zhao Lu was startled. She couldn't hear anything else. Hibiscus cream?What a thing that brings disaster to the country and the people!
"Oh, these Japanese people are really clever. They know that gold is valuable and medicine is priceless. They are specially engaged in that trick business. That is a precious gold thing worth one tael of gold and one tael of ointment. No one among these thousands of households can do it better than them. !” Jealous, really jealous.

Zhao Lu took out the arsenic he had taken back, feeling greatly shocked.

Looking at the body on the ground that was slightly arched due to the pain, he couldn't help but reach forward with his feet. He was about to say that I should take a look, but in an instant, the reflected sword light hit his eyes, and there was a moment in his mind. Qingming, then stopped.

Yes, killing him would not only be useless, but would even bring big trouble to Hu Junrong and the others.

Seeing that her face was pale, the postmaster stepped forward and stood in front of Zhao Lu. He chuckled a few times and said nothing, but strictly blocked Zhao Lu's sight so that she could not see the lame Japanese man.

A moment later, Hu Junrong's voice sounded, "We came out in a hurry, but we could only deal with it like this. It was just a broken leg. We successfully reset it. As long as we go back and take good care of it, we will be back to normal in less than three months."

As he said that, he explained a lot of knowledge that he would learn in detail, and looked like he was the biggest customer. Zhao Lu gritted his teeth. Nothing could be worthy of such enthusiasm.

Seeing the crowd disperse, Zhao Lu stepped forward to help up the bicycle and ran forward angrily, not forgetting to look back and glare at Hu Junrong.

"What's wrong? You can even hang an oil pot from your mouth." When he was handed the job and came down from the West Camp, Hu Junrong smiled and asked knowingly. He didn't think much about it. He just assumed that the little girl was angry at him for not letting her handle it. ?After all, she has made as many achievements as herself in the camp's surgery department.

"They are Japanese."

"Well, I know, Yichen said so." Hu Junrong didn't take it seriously.

Such an attitude made Zhao Lu feel a little angry, and he said angrily in a low voice: "They are selling hibiscus cream!"

"Yes, I heard you when you were talking to Yi Chen."

Hu Junrong was slow and didn't know why Zhao Lu was angry, but when he thought that she only knew a little about the recipe, he said: "Hibiscus ointment is a prescription for reducing swelling and draining pus made from hibiscus leaves and yellow vitex seeds. Now our hospital has more than a dozen kinds." Here’s the compatible compound hibiscus ointment.”

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Lu was startled, then he narrowed his eyes and said coolly: "Is this thing worth a tael of gold? You are fooling me like a child again. Uncle Hu knows that I am not talking about this hibiscus cream."

"Haha, that is also a good remedy for antipyretic and analgesic. It is also used in the palace."

Hu Junrong laughed, but sighed in his heart. This kind of hibiscus ointment is very valuable. From the cultivation of raw materials to the later processing, it has its own specific explanation. It is between a good prescription and a poisonous prescription. The dosage is very subtle, and ordinary doctors will not know it. I know that I have never heard of any pharmacy in Beijing that sells hibiscus ointment made by Japanese people.

So who did they sell to?
