Do you know: I am Xu Jiazi

Chapter 430: Losing Weight and Denial Three Times [Thank you! Thank you again! I owe you more chapters]

Moriya
The first day of school,
The school was very quiet.
Changbai, Zai Zhang and others were looking at the table in front of them.

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

Gu Tingye rubbed his nose after sneezing twice in a row.
Looking at the white paper on the table in front of him that was stained by himself, he raised his sleeve to wipe it.

But when his arm was raised in the air, Gu Tingye shook his head slightly and turned back to say, "Zhi Que, bring me another piece of new paper."

After Gu Tingye finished speaking, he glanced at Zhuang Xuejiu who was sitting behind the desk.

Qi Heng tilted his head and said, "Second Uncle, you didn't catch a cold, did you?"

Gu Tingye shook his head.

Zhuang Xuejiao knocked on the table with his closed folding fan, and when everyone looked over, he said, "When you enter the examination room from now on, the answer sheet in front of you will determine your future, so you must protect it well."

"In a situation like Jilang's, you must turn your head to the side!"

"Yes, academic."

Xu Zaijing and others sitting behind the table bowed in response.

"Continue answering the questions."

The school fell into silence again.

From time to time, there were the faint sounds of Molan and Rulan flipping through books, but one was reading a collection of poetry and the other was reading a storybook.

Until 11:30 am

Zhuang Xuejiu was lying on a chair in the classroom, snoring softly.

The three Lans from the Sheng family quietly stood up and came to the side of Master Zhuang. They bowed and left the academy.

Xu Zaijing and six others were still writing furiously behind their desks.

When the Sheng family's servant brought lunch, the six of them ate without saying a word.

The sun sets in the west,

Zhuang Xuejiao looked at the six people in the classroom who were either checking their papers or writing furiously, and knocked on the table again: "Come on, the time is up, hand in all your answers! Even those who haven't finished writing should hand in theirs!"

Hearing this,

Chang Feng, who was sitting at the back and still writing with his head down, suddenly looked even more anxious.

After a while

Everyone handed in their papers.

Zhuang Xuejiao looked at the handwriting on everyone's answer sheets, and without commenting, he used the paperweight on the table to press down all the answer sheets: "I will review your homework tomorrow. Let's go home today."

Everyone in the school bowed and said, "Thank you for your teachings, Master!"

"Ah."

Together with Zai Zhang, he left Sheng's school.
On the way back to Quyuan Street,
Qingcao in the carriage glanced at Xu Zaijing from time to time.

Xu Zaijing, who was sitting in the middle, lifted the curtain and looked at the street scene of Bianjing which was gradually becoming lively.

When going up the bridge,
The carriage rose slightly,

Qingcao, who was sitting on the side of the carriage, quickly patted the carriage to steady herself. Seeing the look in her master's eyes, Qingcao hesitated and said, "Master, I have something to say but I don't know if I should say it or not."

"speak."

Qingcao opened her eyes wide and pursed her lips and said:

"Sir, I noticed that Miss Minglan was a little different after the New Year, but I can't tell where the difference is!"

Xu Zaijing put down his hand that was lifting the curtain and thought for a moment: "Your face has become thinner!"

Qingcao thought about it and nodded quickly: "Yes! Young Master is really amazing!"

Xu Zaijing patted Qingcao on the head.

"I couldn't tell when Miss Minglan was fat before, but now that she's lost weight, I think she's even prettier."

After saying this, Qingcao added:
"But that's true, Miss Wei is very pretty and has great embroidery skills! I think Miss Minglan looks more like Miss Wei."

"Sir, when I followed you out just now, I saw Young Master Qi also looked at Miss Minglan several times!"

Xu Zaijing looked at Qingcao and said, "Don't say this kind of thing to others. Be careful not to ruin their reputation."

"I know, I will only tell you, Master."

Qingcao hurriedly assured.

Xu Zaijing nodded and thought about the plump white girl he met today.

It was dark last night.

Xu Zaijing couldn't see Minglan's appearance clearly.

School starts today.
Xu Zaijing saw Minglan in the morning light.

He had met Wei Shuyi several times, and he saw Sheng Hong even more often.

I have to say that Minglan, who is a little thinner, vaguely looks like a combination of the advantages of Wei Shuyi and Sheng Hong.

The hands and faces of the twin maids in my family are very white, and natural beauty is a true portrayal of their appearance.

But sometimes when she stands next to Minglan, her skin color is still a little inferior.

The sound of cars
Amid the noisy clamor, hawking, shouting, and soliciting of customers in the city of Bianjing,

The carriage returned to Quyuan Street.

Xu Zaijing had just gotten off the carriage at the second gate.

Then he saw Yun Xiang, the maid in his courtyard, standing there.

"Yun Xiang, why are you here?"

Yun Xiang bowed and said, "Sir, the sixth son of the Liang family is here. The mistress asked my mother to bring the guest to our yard."

Xu Zaijing looked at the sky in the west and shook his head, "It's a little late to go out and play at this time."

Saying,

Go through the corridor and the door back to your own yard,

After entering the house, Xu Zaijing looked at Liang Han, who was not very old but had a thoughtful look on his face. He said with a smile, "Liu Lang, why did you come to my place at this time? Do you want to have dinner at my house?"

"Brother Jing!"

Liang Han stood up, bowed and shook his head, saying, "I wouldn't come to you today for no reason. I really have something to ask of you!" Xu Zaijing stopped laughing and asked seriously, "What's wrong?"

Liang Han looked at Xu Zaijing and said, "This morning my mother went to Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion to help someone look up marriage news. She felt a little unwell after she came back at noon!"

Xu Zaijing frowned: "Didn't you invite the imperial physician?"

"We asked for help, but they were helpless. My mother has had this disease for many years."

"So..." Xu Zaijing looked at Liang Han and asked.

Liang Han cupped his hands and said, "I heard that you, Jing'er, have a good relationship with the medical officer of the Yu family, so I came to your house to ask you to go with me. It's always better to have you, Jing'er, accompany me."

Seeing Xu Zaijing's puzzled expression, Liang Han explained, "The news that Doctor Yu cured the old ancestor of the Yu family and saved Rui Ge'er has spread all over Bianjing! Now many dignitaries have invited him!"

Xu Zaijing nodded: "Let's go now."

Yongchang Hou Liang Family

in the yard,
There are lighted lanterns hanging in the veranda,
The lanterns with unique shapes swayed gently in the north wind.

Behind the shadows of the rockery and trees not far from the lights, you can vaguely see the bright yellow candlelight shining through the window paper.

In the bedroom of the house,
Mrs. Wu lay on the bed with a frown on her face and an unpleasant expression. Her miserable appearance was completely different from her cheerful appearance during the day.

Yongchang Hou sat on the embroidered cushion beside the bed and said to Madam Wu with a smile, "I didn't expect Liu Lang to be so filial that he actually invited Doctor Yu to come here!"

Madam Wu's frown relaxed slightly, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: "Master is right, I should be gentler when I punish him next time."

Yongchang Hou smiled and shook his head. Just as he was about to speak, Jinchui's mother said at the door of the bedroom, "My Lord, the young doctor wants you to come over for a moment."

"Go!"

Mrs. Wu frowned again and waved her hand.

Marquis Yongchang stood up and walked out of the bedroom.

Xu Zaijing, who was in the outer room, hurriedly bowed and said, "Uncle!"

Yongchang Hou smiled and nodded to indicate that Xu Zaijing did not need to be polite, then looked at Yu Huguang and said, "Master Yu, the lady..."

Yu Huguang bowed in return: "My Lord, although my experience in the Northwest has improved my medical skills, I am not specialized in gynecology after all."

Upon hearing this, both Yongchang Hou and Liang Han looked a little disappointed.

"I can certainly cure your illness, but it's only a temporary solution. If you want to cure your illness, you should consult a good doctor who specializes in gynecology."

"I remember my grandfather told me before that there was a female doctor who married a doctor in the Imperial Hospital. Her family specialized in gynecology and her medical skills were superb. Unfortunately, she has left Beijing and returned to her hometown for a long time."

The Marquis of Yongchang asked in confusion, "Whose female doctor is this?"

It's no wonder that Marquis Yongchang didn't know about it. It was because a woman from a wealthy family asked someone to see a doctor, and rumors would spread if she was not careful. So naturally, she had to cover up when hiring a female doctor.

It is extremely difficult for a gynecologist as skilled as Madam He to become famous.

In addition, after getting married, Madam He took care of her husband and children, so few people knew her name over the years.

"Uncle, you should be the He family of Baishitan. Your ancestors founded the Baishitan Academy, and the children of your family are..."

Xu Zaijing said from the side.

Listening to the origins of the He family, Yongchang Hou said:

"Oh~ I vaguely heard of their family when I was young. Baishitan is thousands of miles away from Bianjing. It's a long way away, so it's not easy to invite people over!"

Although the Yongchang Marquisate had a good reputation in Bianjing,

However, the He family of Baishitan also had several high-ranking officials among their ancestors, and there were also officials who came from Baishitan Academy.

Although the old lady He married into a branch of the family, it was not a family that could be summoned and dismissed at will.

Liang Han said: "Father, then we can go to Baishitan to find someone!"

Yongchang Hou shook his head: "Our family has many affairs in Bianjing, and no one can support it without your mother. Your mother will not agree to leave Beijing and go to a place thousands of miles away."

After thinking it over, Xu Zaijing said, "Uncle, Liu Lang! I often heard my second sister-in-law talk about this old lady He at home. The old lady returned to Baishitan because her daughter-in-law's condition worsened. I don't think she can come easily."

Hearing this, Yongchang Hou and Liang Han looked even more disappointed.

Xu Zaijing continued:

"But, Brother Yu is an excellent doctor, and we have a female doctor in our house. Perhaps we can write down the pulse diagnosis insights of the two doctors and send it to Baishitan. Whether the letter comes to Bianjing or the person comes to Bianjing, it would be good if you can give us some advice."

"My great-aunt and Madam He are close friends. I will ask my great-aunt to write a letter and send it along."

Doctors pay attention to observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation when treating patients. As a man, Yu Huguang does have some inconveniences.

Yu Huguang nodded and said, "This is also a solution."

Subsequently,

Yu Huguang prescribed medicine.

Xu Zaijing walked to the bedroom door and said goodbye to Madam Wu.

Back to Quyuan Street again,
Xu Zaijing made a special trip to his mother Sun's yard.

Listening to Xu Zaijing's narration, Sun slapped the handle of the chair with annoyance on her face: "Sister Wu, she actually hid this from me!"

After saying this, Sun looked at Xu Zaijing.

When Prince Zhao Fang had something stuck in his throat and Xu Zaijing came to his rescue, the medical officer on duty was a relative of Madam He.

Afterwards, Old Madam He came to the Marquis's Mansion specially to express her gratitude.

In addition to the relationship with Old Madam Sheng, the two families still have some connections.

"Just write a letter, mother. It's up to Madam He to decide whether to come or not."

Xingguofang

Ningyuan Houfu
after dinner,
Gu Tingye looked up at Bai, then at Pingmei, and said, "Mother, sister-in-law, you have been looking at me like this since I returned home. What's wrong?"

Bai and Pingmei looked at each other and said, "Erlang, you are also old enough to discuss marriage. This morning, Madam Wu came to our house and said that on the Lantern Festival yesterday, you fell in love with the girl from the Dou family on the street at first sight, and your eyes were fixed on her."

Pingmei suppressed her laughter and said, "The Dou family is a duke's mansion, so it's a good marriage!"

The more Gu Tingye listened, the wider his eyes widened. Finally, he stood up and waved his hands, saying, "Mother, sister-in-law, I didn't do that. I didn't do that. They made it up!!!"

Seeing Pingmei and Baishi's disbelief,
Gu Tingye said urgently:
"I have a girl I like, yes"

Gu Tingye shut up in time.

But Bai and Pingmei in the hall were already looking straight over.
