Chapter 50 Calmness

Gu Dechang breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Gu Hua and said, "That's good. Since no one is seriously injured, let's go back early.

 You didn’t come back yesterday, and your mother-in-law was very worried at home.

 No, you urged me to pick you up early in the morning. Let's set off after lunch, okay? "

"Okay, Dad and Uncle Huang, you are busy. Xiaoyu will go and clean up." Gu Huayu agreed happily.

Shopkeeper Huang and Gu Dechang entered the elegant room. Chun Tang put down the medicine bowl, stood up and bowed her knees to the two of them.

Lu Ziqin saw the two people coming in and wanted to get up to greet them.

Shopkeeper Huang took a step forward, waved his hand to stop him and said, "Young master is injured, so you don't need to be polite. It's better to lie down and rest."

Lu Ziqin smiled apologetically and nodded slightly towards the two of them.

 Gu Dechang's eyes fell on Lu Ziqin's face, and he couldn't help but be startled. Yesterday, his attention was all on his injuries, and he didn't pay attention to the other person's appearance.

On the angular face, there are extremely exquisite facial features. The loose black hair makes the skin on the face as smooth as white porcelain. A pair of cold eyes are hidden under the long and dense eyelashes.

Gu Dechang was amazed that there were such good-looking people in the world. When Pan An was alive, that was all.

Even ordinary clothes can't stop the coldness and nobility on his body.

Lu Liu glanced at Gu Dechang first, then turned his eyes to shopkeeper Huang, twitching the corner of his mouth and saying apologetically, "Thank you both for your life-saving grace. I, Lu Ziqin, cannot stand up to salute and thank you. Please forgive me, my two benefactors."

Shopkeeper Huang bowed his hands and explained: "It was Mr. Gu and Miss Xiaoyu who saved Mr. Lu! I don't dare to be greedy for credit."

 After hearing Shopkeeper Huang's words, Lu Ziqin's eyes darkened slightly, and he instantly understood that the other party did not want to mention what happened last night.

 Gu Dechang withdrew his gaze, smiled and bowed his hands, saying, "Yesterday, I happened to pass by Weishi Ridge and encountered the young master being injured. It happens that my daughter knows a little bit about medicine. It just happened that... the young master doesn't need to take it to heart."

Shopkeeper Huang smiled and said: "It's all fate. Mr. Gu is right. Mr. Lu doesn't need to take it to heart. Just rest in peace and recuperate."

Lu Ziqin reluctantly held up his hands and said, "Thank you very much. May I ask your surnames and how should I call you two benefactors?"

Gu Dechang smiled and replied: "I, Gu Dechang, am just a countryman from the mountains and fields, and I don't deserve the word "noble" as a young master."

Shopkeeper Huang smiled heartily and said, "I'm Huang Xiao. I opened this shop to make a small living and make a living. Everyone around me calls me Shopkeeper Huang. Mr. Lu just calls me Shopkeeper."

 Lv Ziqin once again raised his hand and thanked him.

Shopkeeper Huang returned the courtesy with his hands raised, "Young Master Lu is injured, so there is no need to be so polite. You just want to rest in peace and rest. If you need anything, please just ask Chun Tang or Fugui."

Lu Ziqin nodded, "Okay, thank you very much. May I ask Shopkeeper Huang, is your place far from Chang'an Restaurant?"

Shopkeeper Huang shook his head and responded with a smile: "It's not too far, it's only three streets away. In fact, Shicheng is a small place. Even if it's one city to the east and one to the west, it's not that far. Master, what's wrong?"

Lu Ziqin nodded and said, "I'm at Chang'an Restaurant. I would like to trouble the shopkeeper to send someone to Chang'an Restaurant to help me find a person named Ru'an."

Shopkeeper Huang leaned forward and said, "Okay, I'll send someone out right now. Young Master, please rest a while, I'll leave first."

 Lv Ziqin nodded.

Shopkeeper Huang told Chuntang to talk to Fugui, and then sent Fuyu to Chang'an Restaurant to find out how he was doing, and then left the elegant room with Gu Dechang.

 After lunch, Gu Huayu and Gu Dechang said goodbye to Shopkeeper Huang.

 Shopkeeper Huang and Su Min sent him outside the city gate. Before leaving, shopkeeper Huang looked for an opportunity to reveal Lu Ziqin's identity to Gu Huayu.

After hearing this, Gu Huayu nodded and said in a low voice, "I know. Keep an eye on this person. If this person gets into trouble in Shicheng, you can help him deal with it."

Shopkeeper Huang nodded and said, "Don't worry, girl, I've written it down."

Su Min looked at the carriage going away and asked, "Brother Xiao, are we going to let the girl leave like this?"

Huang Xiao glanced sideways at Su Min, turned around and walked towards the city, saying as he walked: "Listen to me, girl, let's go back."

Su Min looked at the carriage that was getting further away, then turned around and caught up with Shopkeeper Huang.

When the two returned to Huangji, Fugui came over and said, "Shopkeeper, Mr. Lu has invited me."

Shopkeeper Huang and Su Min looked at each other and said, "I'll go take a look."

 Shopkeeper Huang went to the elegant room, and Lu Ziqin took a look at Chun Tang and Fugui.

Shopkeeper Huang waved his hand: "You guys, please step aside."

After Chun Tang and Fu Gui retreated, Lu Ziqin spoke first: "Thank you very much, shopkeeper, for your help last night."

Shopkeeper Huang's eyes widened in shock and he asked in astonishment: "Does the Young Master know what happened last night?"

Lu Ziqin nodded and replied truthfully: "I can hear you talking, and I understand very well, but I can't open my eyes."

When the conversation started, Shopkeeper Huang said bluntly: "Oh! So that's it. Master, do you know who you have offended?"

Lu Ziqin shook his head, "I don't know yet."

Shopkeeper Huang hesitated for a moment and then asked tentatively: "Master Lu is staying at Chang'an Restaurant. Is Master Lu not a local?"

Lu Ziqin looked away from Shopkeeper Huang and said bluntly: "I am not a local. I am coming to the capital, Liu Lang, from the British Duke's office in the capital.

When I traveled to Shicheng this time, I didn't want to have anything like this happen. Shopkeeper Huang, please rest assured that I will order someone to investigate what happened last night thoroughly and will not cause any trouble to the shopkeeper. "

Shopkeeper Huang didn't expect Lu Ziqin to be so honest. He was slightly stunned, stepped forward and said, "It turns out to be the Sixth Master of the Duke's Mansion. I'm rude."

Lu Ziqin waved his hands slightly and said, "Shopkeeper Huang has helped me save my life, so why should I be rude? Shopkeeper Huang, please take a seat."

 Huang Xiao sat down at the table as instructed and poured herself a cup of tea.

Lu Ziqin gritted his teeth and endured the pain of the wound, twisting his body slightly to change his posture to make his waist more comfortable.

“Doctor Gu was here last night, right?” Lu Ziqin looked at Shopkeeper Huang and asked warmly.

Seeing Lu Ziqin mention Gu Huayu, Shopkeeper Huang's heart immediately jumped up. He paused slightly and replied, "Yes, Miss Xiaoyu was here last night."

 “Xiaoyu! What’s Doctor Gu’s name?” Lu Ziqin murmured.

"Huh? Back to Mr. Six, yes, Dr. Gu's name is Gu Huayu, so I call her Miss Xiaoyu." Shopkeeper Huang stared at Lu Ziqin's face, trying to peek into his inner thoughts through his expression.

In Shopkeeper Huang’s view, Lu Ziqin has a calmness that belies his age.

Lv Ziqin repeated expressionlessly: "Gu Huayu!" He stared at the screen not far away and said nothing. He didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing that Lu Ziqin was silent, Huang Xiao asked tentatively: "Does Mr. Liu remember what happened yesterday?"

Lu Ziqin turned to look at Huang Xiao, shook his head and said, "I don't remember what happened during the day. Shopkeeper Huang will tell me."

“It’s about Mr. Liu’s safety, so I’ll speak out. Yesterday, when Mr. Gu sent Mr. Liu here, he looked like a **** man. It’s conceivable that Mr. Liu was seriously injured.

I have known Mr. Gu for many years and know that Mr. Gu is extremely cautious in his work.

When Mr. Gu took the young master back to the city, he covered himself with a cloth.

And it was still early at that time, so there were not many people on the street. No one should know about the young master entering the city.

Furthermore, the young master's injury was treated by Miss Xiaoyu, and I did not ask a doctor to treat the young master.

Even so, assassins still came to the door last night. "

Lu Ziqin listened quietly without interrupting shopkeeper Huang. However, his pale face became more gloomy.

Huang Xiao paused for a moment, then continued, "I'm going to tell Mr. Liu this. I hope Mr. Liu knows what's going on. After all, Mr. Liu is injured now and it's not easy for him to worry too much."

Lu Ziqin bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, shopkeeper Huang..."

Before Lu Ziqin finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, "Shopkeeper, the person you are looking for has arrived."

Shopkeeper Huang and Lu Ziqin looked at each other, then shouted: "Come in."

Immediately, the door opened, and Fuyu led a man in an indigo gown in.

 Before shopkeeper Huang could speak, the man rushed to the bed and knelt down, "If you don't protect the master well, please punish me."

Lu Ziqin waved his hands and said in a deep voice: "Get up first. I've met Shopkeeper Huang."

 Ru An stood up and bowed his hands to Huang Xiao in greeting.

 Huang Xiao returned the courtesy with his hands raised. After a while of greetings, Huang Xiao said goodbye to Lu Ziqin and left the elegant room with Fu Yu.

 Ru'an knelt down in front of the bed again. Lu Ziqin looked at Ru'an and said, "It's not your fault. Get up and speak."

 Ru'an bowed down to give thanks, stood up and stood by the side.

 Lü Ziqin asked: “Have Ruxuan and Ruji arrived?”

 Ru'an leaned forward and said, "Go back to me, Ruxuan Ruji arrived yesterday morning, and is still out looking for me at the moment."

Lu Ziqin nodded and ordered: "You and Ruxuan go find out who did it, and ask Ruji to come and take care of it."

 Ru'an bowed and responded, "Yes, I have written it down."

Ru'an waited for a while and saw that Lu Ziqin didn't give any more instructions, so he leaned back.

Just after taking two steps back, Lu Ziqin said: "Go and prepare some fine cloth clothes for everyone to change their clothes."

 Ru'an responded: "Yes, I understand."

Lu Ziqin said softly: "Go."

After Ru An exited, Lu Ziqin closed his eyes, but his mind was thinking all the time...

Shopkeeper Huang returned to the study and Su Min asked, "Brother Xiao, did Mr. Lu Liu's people pick him up?"

Shopkeeper Huang shook his head, "I don't know yet. I'll leave first. The lady told me before she left that we would take care of her. If Mr. Liu returns to Chang'an Restaurant, arrange for someone to keep an eye on him."

Su Min nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."

 After Ru'an left for a while, Ruji came to Huangji. Fugui took him directly to the elegant room and waited at the door.

 Ruji entered the house and went up to greet Lu Ziqin.

 Lv Ziqin nodded, "Coming?"

Ruji stepped forward to check Lu Ziqin's wounds and opened Lu Ziqin's clothes. He couldn't help but be stunned.

Lu Ziqin glanced sideways at Ruji and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ruji took a closer look at the bandaged wound and said, "Sir, the wound was treated extremely well. Even Dr. Qin from Tai Hospital would be ashamed of this technique."

"Oh?" Lu Ziqin turned his head and looked at his right arm, studied it carefully for a while, and murmured: "A girl in her teens has such ability. Daxing is really full of talents."

Ruji looked at Lu Ziqin in disbelief and said in surprise: "Teen years old? Girl?"

Lu Ziqin nodded, "Yeah!"

Ruji was no longer calm, so he put his hand on Lu Ziqin's left hand and felt his pulse calmly.

 After a moment, Ruji changed his hand to Lu Ziqin's right hand, closed his eyes and concentrated.

 When Ruji took back his hand, Lu Ziqin asked: "How?"

 If Ji didn't answer, he put his hand on Lu Ziqin's left hand again, then moved it to his right hand, repeating this many times.

Lu Ziqin didn't ask any more questions and allowed him to repeatedly check for pulse.

When Ruji stopped, Lu Ziqin asked seriously: "How?"

Ruji met Lu Ziqin's gaze and asked suspiciously: "Sir, is this doctor really only ten years old?"

Lu Ziqin nodded, "Well, I have seen it, a teenage girl. According to Shopkeeper Huang, when he saw me yesterday, I looked like a **** man and was unconscious..."

The more he listened, the more solemn Ruji's face became. He straightened up and walked to the table. He took the medicine bowl and put it under his nose and smelled it. He turned around and said, "Sir, can I see this doctor?"

 Lv Ziqin asked: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the medicine?"

Ruji put down the medicine bowl, shook his head and said, "No, the medicine is very suitable for the patient. Master, I would like to meet this girl and ask her for advice."

He is unconscious. He must have been seriously injured and lost too much blood. Even if he is rescued, he must be extremely weak at this moment...

   Ke Ye’s current pulse condition does not appear to be weak. In this way, this girl's medical skills are excellent. "

Lu Ziqin nodded and said, "Go and call Fugui in."

Ruji nodded, turned around and opened the door to call Fugui who was waiting at the door.

The rich man came into the room to see the ceremony, bowed and asked, "What are your orders, Master?"

Lu Ziqin said: "Please go and ask Doctor Gu to come over. I have something to ask her."

Fugui leaned back and said, "Go back to me, sir, Miss Xiaoyu has gone home."

  Ru Ji took the message and said, "Then go to her home and tell her story."

 The rich and powerful man looked at Ruji and then at Lu Ziqin.

 Lv Ziqin asked: "What's wrong? Is it inconvenient to go to her house?"

Fugui Qishen said: "Miss Xiaoyu's family is not in the county town. She lives in Tai Village, Sanhe Town, which is more than sixty miles away from the county town."

After hearing this, Lu Ziqin waved his hands and said, "I understand, you can go down."

 Exit if you are rich and honorable.

 Ruji sighed, "It's a pity that I can't see him in person."

Lu Ziqin’s eyes didn’t know where to land. After a moment of silence, he said: “There are such apricot grove saints in the mountains and wilds. Let people go and find out who this person studied under.”

Ruji leaned forward and said, "Yes, I understand. Sir, shall we go back to Chang'an Restaurant now?"

"good!"

Just as Ru Ji was about to raise his voice to call for someone, Lu Ziqin continued: "Go and say goodbye to Shopkeeper Huang for me and thank him for taking him in and taking care of him."

 If Ji bows down and responds, "Yes, I understand."

 When Gu Huayu returned home, it was already the first day of the new year.

Wan was washing vegetables by the well in the yard. She looked up and saw her daughter coming back. She dropped what she was doing and hurried over, "Xiaoyu is back? Are you okay?"

Gu Huayu stretched out her hand to greet Wanshi with a smile, hugged Wanshi, and said coquettishly, "I've let you worry about grandma. Xiaoyu is fine. I'm finally home. Xiaoyu misses grandma so much."

 The worry on Wan's face instantly disappeared and turned into a knowing smile.

"Xiaoyu, you still don't know your mother-in-law? As long as you don't hang around in front of your mother-in-law, your mother-in-law will lose her mind!" Mrs. Fang came out of the kitchen with a basin and joked with a smile.

 “Hello, Second Auntie.” Gu Huayu let go of Mrs. Wan and said hello to Mrs. Fang.

"Okay, okay! You've been traveling for a long time, are you tired?" Fang said in greeting.

 Gu Huayu shook her head, "I'm not tired. I took a nap in the car and arrived at the entrance of the village when I woke up."
