The most cattle country medical concubine

Chapter 178
"Eldest young mistress, take a break." Nanny Fang came in with a plate of fruit and put it on the table for her. It was a few neat slices of peaches that had been cut open in the kitchen.

Now that autumn is entering, fruits are gradually entering the off-season, and there are fewer types of fruits that can be eaten.There is a peach grove near the capital, and the harvest is said to be good this year.

Li Min picked up a piece, ate it and tasted it: "Mmm, not bad, a bit sweet."

"If the eldest young mistress likes it, I will ask the kitchen to cut some more." Nanny Fang laughed.

"No need, the rest, you can eat together." Li Min can eat anything, pay attention not to eat too much, this is the way to keep healthy.

Nanny Fang only thought that she didn't eat much, and was worried that she would not be able to support her body. After all, she would give birth to children for their young master in the future, so she persuaded: "It doesn't matter if you eat one more slice. If you can eat it, eat it You have to eat. Only by eating fat can you give birth to a fat boy, and it will not be hard to give birth when the time comes."

Li Min bit the half-slice of peach in his mouth, and looked back at her in shock: Is this Nanny Fang old-fashioned?Even after her husband died, she couldn't possibly have a child and forgot about it?
Swept by her suspicious eyes, Mother Fang quickly shut her mouth and stepped aside.

Anyway, Li Min thought she was weird, if she was weird, in her room, with her two maids, Chunmei became the weirdest.In the past, Chunmei, who often worried about her marriage and didn't look like Nian Xia could vent her anger, could only hold back her bitter face. Now, for some reason, she might look away like her Li Min, and sometimes Can show a smile that can't be hidden all over the face.

Could it be that this little girl is thinking of spring instead of autumn, and found a small partner, if so, she has to think about how to arrange it for others.She herself is a widow, but there is no reason for the people under her to stay widowed with her for the rest of her life.What two wonderful girls, young and not bad in appearance, there will be no men who want them.

Turning over another page of the medical record with her fingers, she was disturbed by Nanny Fang, so she didn't have much interest in reading it.Seeing that it was about the same time, Li Min was going to pack up and go to bed.

In Xu's medicine hall, shopkeeper Xu instructed the staff in the medicine hall to move the box to the backyard before closing the door.On the gravel road at the entrance of the store, there was a series of hurried hoofbeats.

A figure was lying on the back of the horse. In the deep night, the man on the horse had a hat and a cloak on his head, making his face unclear.

The clerk in the medicine hall heard the sound of the horse and jumped up the steps.Shopkeeper Xu walked out of the door, looking around with his fingers crossed over his eyebrows.I saw a sorrel pony running to a stop a few feet away from the left of the store, and the person on the horse slipped off the saddle, as if he was sweating profusely and tired from riding.Standing on the gravel road with two legs, he could not stand stably. He could see that he was getting old, so he wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeves and called out: "Master Xu——"

The voice was hoarse, coming from the night air, mixed with the cold autumn wind, it seemed eerie, and it made people's nerves and muscles tense.

Shopkeeper Xu narrowed his eyes the moment he heard the voice, raised the corner of his robe and ran down the steps towards the man.

When he arrived in front of that person, he took a closer look, and vaguely recognized the face of Eunuch Zhu under the cloak. Shopkeeper Xu asked, "Eunuch?"

Eunuch Zhu swallowed dryly, choked on his saliva to moisten his mouth, it can be seen how anxious he was running all the way, his mouth was dry, and said: "My master in the palace said that he came to send a letter to Dr. Li Son."

"What letter?" Shopkeeper Xu looked him up and down nervously, trying to find some clues.

Eunuch Zhu approached his ear and said softly: "My master, after taking the medicine prescribed by Dr. Li last time, she got better a lot, but she developed a fever again in the past two days. I hope Dr. Li can give her some more medicine." So, after hearing about that incident, I couldn't help feeling anxious, and asked Dr. Li to send a letter. Dr. Li is not here, so you can see."

A note passed through Eunuch Zhu's hand, without being seen by outsiders, and passed directly into the sleeve of shopkeeper Xu.

Shopkeeper Xu looked at the other party with questioning eyes, saw the other party nodded, and hurriedly lowered his head to take a look at the note. With just one glance, shopkeeper Xu's eyes stared straight.

Eunuch Zhu patted him on the shoulder and said, "I have to go now. If it is discovered that I have been out of the palace, I will come to you, and I will be in trouble."

Shopkeeper Xu hurriedly helped him get on the horse, bowed in gratitude and said, "My lady, I will definitely go to Madam tomorrow to thank you."

"There's no need to thank you. My master said that I will always remember Dr. Li's kindness for the rest of my life." After saying this, Eunuch Zhu turned his horse's head, raised his whip, and with a snap, the sorrel pony raised dust. Disappeared in a dark alley.

Shopkeeper Xu didn't dare to delay. Although he was in a panic and didn't know if the letter was true or not, since it was sent by Concubine Shu risking her life, it was probably true.Concubine Shu has no reason to lie to them.What's more, Li Min had anticipated this matter earlier and reminded him.In the end, it was still impossible to guard against. Are you going to fall?
How could Xu's century-old store be destroyed like this?

When shopkeeper Xu stepped on the steps, his gait was slightly unsteady, as if he was about to fall over.A young guy beside him quickly supported him and shouted: "The shopkeeper——"

Hearing the sound, Shopkeeper Xu looked sideways, saw Xiao Lizi's face, opened his lips, and said timidly, "Why are you here?"

Everyone helped move things.

Xiao Lizi said softly: "Just now I saw the shopkeeper go out, the villain is worried about what's the matter with the shopkeeper, after all, it's windy and dark at night, there may be some bad guys on the street."

This guy, shopkeeper Xu knew, was a caring guy.Li Min also told him about this, if you can use it, you can use it as soon as you can, it is not easy to find a clever person who can do things now, and the medicine hall itself is quite short of people.

Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Xu glanced at him up and down, and said, "Tell everyone that those who can go home will go home. There are no relatives in the capital to hide. Pack up Softbank and hide outside the capital for a few days. In a few days, wait for the limelight." It's over, it's okay, I have a word from here that they can come back, come back."

Xiao Lizi was stunned for a moment: "Shopkeeper, this?"

"Don't ask any more questions, pass on my words quickly, don't cause a commotion, and go out secretly through the back door and alley. You don't need to clean up your things in the store." After finishing speaking, shopkeeper Xu pushed him on the shoulder .

Xiao Lizi looked back at him, saw him nodding, turned around, and ran towards the backyard at a trot.

Seeing that there was no one else around, shopkeeper Xu took out the note hidden in the sleeve, unfolded it and glanced at it, and after confirming that the words "Shun Tian Fu" were correct, he crumpled the note into a ball and stuffed it into his mouth Li swallowed it in one gulp.

Looking up, seeing the black wooden plaque above the medicine hall swaying in the night wind, shopkeeper Xu frowned, wondering if he should move a stool and use a hammer to reinforce it.However, now is not the time to do such things.
