Chapter 46 The Prefect’s Task

After saying this, Shopkeeper Peng talked to Zhou Ran about going back, "I can finish the things at hand today. Does Mrs. Zhou want to go back to Nanxing County tomorrow, or does she want to stay in Fucheng for a few more days and travel everywhere?" Take a walk?"

Zhou Ran was still thinking about picking up the old gentleman as soon as possible, so naturally she wanted to go back tomorrow.

Knowing what Zhou Ran meant, Shopkeeper Peng finished all the matters at hand for the day and went to say goodbye to Boss Qian's family.

When Shopkeeper Peng went there, the Qian family had just seen off the butler from the magistrate's house. Hearing Shopkeeper Peng say that Zhou Ran would be leaving tomorrow, he hurriedly followed Shopkeeper Peng to see Zhou Ran again.

"Mrs. Zhou, why don't you visit Fucheng more? There are still many interesting places in Fucheng."

Zhou Ran smiled and thanked Qian Dong's family for their kindness, and said: "I still have things to deal with at home, so I can't stay in Fucheng for a long time. I can only wait until my next visit to Fucheng before continuing to visit."

"In that case, I will keep Mrs. Zhou soon."

The two of them exchanged some polite words, and Boss Qian told Zhou Ran about his real purpose of coming this time, "The prefect has been full of praise for Madam Zhou's embroidery skills since he saw her embroidery two days ago. Isn't this seven years old?" Is the emperor about to get married at the end of the month? The prefect wants Madam Zhou to embroider a table screen of "Luan and Phoenix Harmony" for him, and it is best if it is the same as the butterfly that Madam Zhou embroidered before, so that the two sides are different colors. Madam Zhou, look at this..."

As soon as Boss Qian finished speaking, the voice of the system rang loudly.

[Short-term task: embroider a double-sided heterochromatic "Luan Feng He Ming" table screen for the prefect, health +100 (limited to ninety days)]

Zhou Ran didn't want to refuse at first. Not only was she a little embroiderer, but Shopkeeper Qian didn't dare to refuse the order from the prefect. Besides, it didn't matter whether it was for Linglong Embroidery Workshop or her. a good thing.

If this piece of embroidery can really appear in front of the emperor or the future queen, and be praised by them, then both her and Linglong Embroidery Workshop's reputation will be even better.

She still remembers the system's requirements for her to learn embroidery skills and become famous all over the world as soon as possible.

So after listening to the system task, Zhou Ran smiled and said to Qian Dong's family: "Since the prefect has found Qian Dong's family, I can't make it difficult for Qian Dong's family. I will take the next step and deliver the finished product by the end of March at the latest." Give it to Shopkeeper Peng, okay?"

The emperor was getting married in July, so she had the things embroidered before the end of March, leaving enough time for the Qian family and the prefect to deal with the follow-up matters.

"Okay, then this is a hard work for Madam Zhou. Here is a little hard work fee that I have prepared for Madam Zhou. Please don't refuse, Madam Zhou."

As he spoke, Boss Qian pushed the box he had prepared when he arrived to Zhou Ran.

Zhou Ran looked at the familiar box in front of her and pretended to refuse: "I haven't embroidered this thing yet, so it's not appropriate to charge the employer for my hard work now."

Boss Qian smiled and said: "Mrs. Zhou, please don't be polite to me. I believe that since Mrs. Zhou has agreed to this, she will definitely do her best to complete it."

"Then I won't be polite to Shopkeeper Qian."

After watching Zhou Ran accept the box, shopkeeper Qian chatted with Zhou Ran for a few more words, then saw that it was getting late, so he said goodbye and left.

As soon as shopkeeper Qian left, Zhou Ran couldn't wait to open the box. After seeing the banknotes inside, Zhou Ran was immediately happy. Boss Qian was really generous and gave her two thousand taels directly. This was her relief. It's urgent.

After depositing the banknotes into the system, Zhou Ran packed up and went to bed early. Early the next morning, they set off from Fucheng.

Zhou Ran and Shopkeeper Peng talked about picking up people from the village where they were staying. Shopkeeper Peng even paid special attention to an empty carriage.

Because the weather was good, they didn't delay on the way, and it took them two and a half days to reach the old gentleman's village.

Zhou Ran and the others originally planned to stay in the village for half a day and let the old man pack up before continuing on the road the next day. Little did they know that the old man had already packed his things and was waiting for Zhou Ran and the others to come back. When they saw Zhou Ran and the others After that, the old gentleman immediately urged Zhou Ran and the others to set off.

Village Chief Li came over after hearing the news and advised the old man: "Why are they in such a hurry? Let them rest in the village for one night, and it won't be too late to leave tomorrow."

If Zhou Ran and the others were to stay, they would definitely stay at his house, so that his family could have more income.

The old man glared at Village Chief Li angrily, "Rescuing people is like putting out fires, don't you know? What trouble are you making here? Get out of the way."

Zhou Ran couldn't help but laugh when she heard the old gentleman's words, thinking that now you know that saving people is like putting out fires. You didn't have this attitude when we asked you to help us see a doctor before.

However, based on Ye Ximing's current situation, it is indeed best to see a doctor a day earlier if she can. Since the old gentleman is leaving, she will definitely cooperate actively.

"The old gentleman is right. My husband is indeed waiting for the old gentleman to save his life. We will not disturb the village chief this time. If there is a chance, we will visit the village chief's house again next time."

Zhou Ran said this, and Shopkeeper Peng and others had no objections. Village Chief Li didn't want to stay longer, so he had to watch them go.

During the second half of the journey, Zhou Ran and the old gentleman got into a carriage.

On the carriage, Zhou Ran chatted with the old gentleman and said, "Don't you need to bring your apprentice with you when you go to see a doctor?"

The old gentleman curled his lips and said: "Why take him? He doesn't know medical skills."

Zhou Ran was surprised and said: "Ah, isn't he your apprentice?"

The old man glanced sideways at Zhou Ran and said in a bad tone: "Who stipulates that my apprentice must be able to do medicine? What can I do if he can't hold up the wall?"

mud? Zhou Ran looked at Fei Nanxing and he didn't look like mud.

But Zhou Ran didn't say this, but it was clear that the old man was very resentful of his apprentice's lack of medical skills, and he began to talk to Zhou Ran endlessly about how stupid and stupid his apprentice was.

"I taught him how to identify medicinal materials. After teaching him for half a year, he still couldn't separate Astragalus membranaceus and Sophora flavescens. I taught him how to feel for the pulse. After teaching him for several months, he stopped talking about the pulse and couldn't even find the pulse. As for the prescription, he became sleepy as soon as he took it, and I was so angry that I almost opened his head to see if his brain was filled with mud."

Zhou Ran was amused by the old gentleman's words. She suppressed her laughter under the old gentleman's glare, but she still couldn't help but asked curiously: "Since he doesn't have any talent for studying medicine, why do you still accept him as your disciple?" ah?"

When the old man heard this, he looked regretful and said: "Who knew he would be such an idiot at that time? When I first met him, he seemed quite smart. But when I think about it, I regret it. It would be better to just leave him alone and let him starve to death on the streets, so as not to make me angry now."
