Chapter 157 Went to Liu County
Liang Dong carried a plate of watermelon and went up to the second floor with a smile, "Uncle and Auntie, eat some watermelon first, it's hot today!"

Chen Tiegui nodded, took a tooth, and sighed, "Don't worry about who earns the money, you will still be a family in the future? Let me tell you, give Si Peiwa a part of it to set up a shop in the county. Got it."

Baozhu walked up the hall for a few steps, took advantage of the situation and sat beside her father, thought for a while, then curled her lips and said: "I also thought about it in the same way, I mentioned it to him earlier, but he doesn't appreciate it."

Mrs. Wang said, "That's fine, Si Pei is not the one to sit back and enjoy what he gets, he is willing to think of ways to make money to support his family, since he doesn't want to be favored by our house when money is at stake, the rest of you usually just help out more. "

Liangdong stood in front of the pillar and listened to their conversation, and now he frowned, "I don't know what my brother-in-law is thinking, originally Baozhu and I were planning to find a place for him in the county these days. , Who would have thought that since the first visit at the beginning of the month, they have disappeared.”

Wang raised her eyebrows and glanced at Baozhu, "Didn't you say where you're going?"

Baozhu nodded, "He has resigned from his job at Renjitang, and he doesn't know where he is now, even if he tried to find him, he couldn't be found."

Wang sighed angrily, "This child! Why didn't you inform the rest of you?"

After dinner, Mrs. Wang discussed with Chen Tiegui and asked him to go to the town to inquire about it tomorrow, saying that no matter how much he tried to persuade him, don't try to make a fool of himself. People, why do they still pay attention to what those people do?

Chen Tiegui shook his head and waved his hands again and again, "Forget it, Sipei has been careful since she was a child, unlike the one who said that the wind is the same as the rain, this time I'm afraid it was some kind of idea, maybe she found another job."

Chen Cuixi moved a small stool into the yard, raised his chin, and curled his lips: "What does he do? Let me tell you, he is so old, and he has an engagement with Baozhu, where to go, what to do, is it possible?" Do you still have an idea in your mind?"

As he said that, he sat down next to Mrs. Wang and sighed: "Sister-in-law, don't bother to persuade him. The boy's family always has a good face. Our Baozhu is so capable, and his house is so poor, how can we be ashamed to accept that kind of love?"

Baozhu stuck out her tongue, wondering when her mother informed Sangu about it?Her two words were a little bit harsh, but seeing her aunt's calm face, Baozhu felt relieved a little, smiled and let them talk slowly, and took Zhaodi to the stove to boil water bath.

Chen Tiegui got up early the next day and drove back to the village. Mrs. Wang stayed in the county for a while, saying that she would go back to the house after August [-]th, and stayed in the county to help take care of business during this period.

Mrs. Wu also came to the county with her predecessor, and because Mrs. Wang was here, she often came to the shop with Runze these days. These days, Baozhu took time to teach Zhaodi how to make chicken essence, saying that she and Brother Liangdong cooked the dishes. Dao Dao is delicious, in addition to the craftsmanship and condiments, these chicken essences also play a role in enhancing the freshness. Nowadays, this thing can be regarded as Chen Ji's unique skill. Even if other people can imitate it, they want to break their heads I can't think of shiitake mushrooms and chicken that can be made like this.

Today is another fine weather with clear clouds and clear wind. The chicken essence I made overnight was left to dry on the steps of the backyard. I got up early and collected it from the bluestone slab. It weighed four or five catties, enough to last for several months. In addition, Mrs. Wang has been living in the county recently, and her eldest brother and sister-in-law often come to the shop to help recruit customers, so Baozhu's mood is very smooth.

At noon, Runze hurried into the shop, went into the kitchen to say hello to Wang Fulai and the others, and then went to look for treasure beads.

Since breakfast was handed over to Zhaodi Zhang Luo, Baozhu used this period of time to go to the backyard to make sauces. Speaking of which, it was because she was influenced by later generations, so she researched and researched it when she had nothing to do. Always available.

Seeing Runze rushing over, he smiled and shouted, "Brother, come and taste my sauce!"

Runze sighed, "Sipei went to look for me this morning, and just left for Liu County."

Baozhu frowned, "Liu County? What is he going to do in Liu County?" Thinking of what he had heard these days, he said: "I heard that the guests who came to dinner these days are talking about Liu County. Recently, many hungry people from Liu County have come to our county up."

Runze stroked his forehead and said, "That's right, Liu County was in a mess this year when it was hit by floods. The imperial court sent imperial envoys to relieve the disaster some time ago. I'm afraid they are still on the way at this time."

Baozhu thought of something, and asked suspiciously: "Brother Sipei wants to go to the epidemic-stricken area?"

Runze nodded, and said with emotion: "Liu County has been plagued by epidemics for a while, and the people are suffering. It is the time when the water is in dire straits."

Baozhu stomped her feet anxiously, "He didn't discuss such a big matter with me, so he didn't even want his life!"

Runze sighed, and took out a letter from his bosom, "He only said that he studied medicine, and it was time to save the dying and heal the wounded. I couldn't persuade him with anything, so I just left a letter to tell me I'll leave it to you." After a while, he said with relief, "Don't worry too much about Baozhu, what else can you trust in Si Pei's medical skills?"

Baozhu's heart was in a mess, she frowned and opened the letter, only to read a few lines, seeing that he said in the letter that she should not miss him, her heart was sour, she said angrily: "He went to Liu County a few days ago, yesterday He came back just to get some herbs! He had already planned it!"

Runze pondered for a while, "He went in such a hurry today, I can't stop him, otherwise I'll ask Shang Datou and Liangdong to go to Liuxian County tomorrow and persuade him to come back. Counting the days, there are not many imperial missions for disaster relief. Day should also be in office, and there will always be a doctor who treats the sick and saves the sick."

Baozhu thought for a moment, then smiled wryly: "If it's better to discuss it with others, I'm afraid he is more stubborn than anyone else when it comes to curing diseases and saving lives. If the three of you can't persuade him to come, you will be in danger yourself. Why don't you go?" Good! The province's parents and sister-in-law are worried."

The two discussed for a while, and decided to keep this matter from their parents and the others first. Thinking about it better, the situation will be much better when the imperial envoy who has been providing disaster relief from the imperial court arrives in Liu County. After the epidemic situation stabilizes, they will try to contact him.

Bao Zhuqiang cheered up and went to the kitchen. Mrs. Wang saw that she had something on her mind, so she asked her quietly, but she didn't say anything, Mrs. Wang just thought that she was tired from making chicken bouillon and preparing sauce these days After closing, he urged her to go back to the room to rest.

After dinner, Baozhu went back to the house, and Zhaodi also saw that she was not very happy today, she only thought that she was sad because she had lost Sipei's letter all this time, so she silently accompanied her into the door, and spread the bedding for her , forcefully pulled her onto the kang, "Baby is resting, Brother Sipei will believe you as soon as you touch it!"

Baozhu glanced at her, and pursed her mouth, "Sipei went to Liu County, where the epidemic has been raging recently."

Zhaodi opened her mouth wide in surprise, and was about to scream, Baozhu hurriedly covered her mouth, raised her index finger and hissed, "Don't let others listen, my mother doesn't know yet!"

Zhaodi nodded, took off her shoes and got on the kang, the two of them lay side by side, lightly took Baozhu's hand, and said in relief: "I think Brother Sipei is fine, he is a doctor himself, what else can he suffer from?" ?”

After a long while, he laughed again, "I also heard from the guests today that the local county government has also set up rewards. If Brother Sipei can cure those patients, he will come back with the rewards in the future. The money to open the shop is not Got it?"

Baozhu blinked, "Who did you hear this from?"

"Isn't that what those guests said when they were chatting, it's a hundred taels of miles!" She remembered something and got up suddenly, "Huh? Do you think Brother Sipei went there just for the money? He wants to open a shop Make money to support you, but don't want to use your money!"

Baozhu burst out laughing, "If he hears this, it will annoy you. It's a good thing to cure diseases and save people, but what my sister said seems to be motivated by money."

Zhao Di smashed his mouth and muttered in a low voice, "Tsk tsk, 100 taels, one penny after one penny, it would take a big box to hold it."

Baozhu let her talk and really thought about the usual money, what kind of battle would it be to make up a hundred taels, she came back to her senses after a while, and poohed to herself, annoyed that she was so blind to money?Going to see Zhaodi again, there was already a slight snoring sound, Baozhu smiled, went down to the kang and blew out the candles, Zhaodi's tense heartstrings were disturbed so much, and instead she slept peacefully all night.

The days passed and another ten days passed, during this period, Baozhu paid special attention to the rumors in the city, only hearing that the epidemic situation in Liu County was getting better day by day, Baozhu felt relieved.

At noon that day, Tang Bao hurried in and went straight to the kitchen, "Boss Baozhu, Big Brother Wei hasn't come all this time, he must have gone to Liu County, right?"

Wang stood up abruptly, "Baby, where did you hear that? Why doesn't my aunt know?"

Tang Bao sneered, scratching his ears and scratching his cheeks, and said: "Just now I heard outside that there was a young doctor in Liu County a few days ago, and the imperial envoy's accompanying doctor was also helpless. I asked him to watch it! I can't say it, I just think they That person looks like Brother Wei."

Mrs. Wang frowned for a while, then glanced at Wang Fulai, "My uncle, is it true?"

Before Wang Fulai could reply, Baozhu hurriedly asked, "Where did you hear that? Are they all true?"

Tang Bao nodded, "It's at the entrance of the teahouse. There are a lot of people there at noon. If you don't believe me, go and find out by yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang put down her apron and went out, "Is this okay? What a nonsense! No matter how good your medical skills are, you can go there by yourself!" Baozhu and Zhaodi hurriedly followed her, and the three went to the teahouse to listen For a while, I went to wander around the city again. There are rumors that there are noses and eyes. Some say that the young man is an apprentice of a master who has avoided the world. Disciple, or successor of the genius doctor in Jianghu, in short, several people heard all kinds of rumors over and over before returning to the shop. In short, they only confirmed one thing, there is indeed a young doctor in Liu County!

Baozhu felt that he was probably the one he was talking about, and knowing that he was safe and sound, she felt depressed for ten days, and then she became happy.Then he went to comfort Wang, "If that person is not Brother Sipei, the best. If so, just listen to the rumors that he can cure the disease, so why worry about it?"
