ancient female doctor

Chapter 72
After eating lunch and seeing off the fat and thin officials, Qingzhu then distributed the gifts to the neighbors.The last time I went to the county seat, I was in a hurry, so I didn't have time to buy anything. This time I stayed in the county seat for three days, but Qingzhu bought a lot of cakes, silk flowers, silk threads and the like.

Qingzhu wandered around the village with things, a small gift for the family.The people who received the gifts were most grateful, and they looked at the green bamboo with a little more awe. They wanted to come to the official to send him home, and the scene that happened at the door of the house had quickly spread throughout the village.

Qingzhu doesn't care much about what others think of him, anyway, he hasn't changed, even if Xia Gong's family is forced by the power of officials, it's just for self-protection.After a long time, everyone will understand.

The gifts sent to the village chief’s house were much more delicate than others’. The gift boxes in the Wangji pastry shop in the county town cost two liang of silver a box, not to mention the small village of Xiajia Village, even in the town or even the county town. Makes a decent gift.

Not only that, but there was also a piece of fine indigo muslin, which, though not a whole piece, was more than enough for a man's clothing.

"How can this be done? It's too expensive, and you won't be rewarded for nothing. Take it back quickly..." Seeing what Qingzhu brought over, Mrs. Du quickly declined as if it had been scalded.

"Second Aunt is still so polite. If the Second Uncle wasn't there that day and the official messenger came, I'm afraid Qingzhu would be scared to death. Second Uncle took the risk to offer some Qingzhu. This small gift is also deserved." The thing was pushed to Du Shi's hand again, smiling very measuredly.

"Your second uncle didn't help much. He feels very guilty these days. He originally planned that if you don't come back today, he will go to the county town to find out what kind of emotion it is. Fortunately, God bless you. An'an's back, I finally let go of your second uncle and I." Hearing what Qingzhu said, Mrs. Du replied, and returned the gift box to Qingzhu.

As for whether Du's words are true or not, to Qingzhu, it's actually not that important, so it doesn't matter if it was true in the first place.

"Second Aunt is too polite. Qingshan told me all about it. If Second Uncle hadn't stopped him that day, he would have followed him. He is a child. If something happened to him if he really followed him secretly Qingzhu really doesn't know what to do, so Second Aunt must not refuse this little thing." Qingzhu said, stood up, and pushed the gift box in front of Du Shi with both hands.

"They're all from the same family and the same village. This little favor is nothing more than a small effort, and it deserves your thanks." Du Shi said politely.

"Second Aunt has already said that, you and Second Uncle are of the same family and same village, you and Second Uncle are Qingzhu's elders, and it is only natural for younger generations to respect their elders, Second Aunt, do you think so?" Qingzhu looked at Du Shi with a smile and said.

"Coincidentally, you have such a small mouth. If I refuse again, I don't know what to do. Anyway, the second aunt has the audacity to accept it. It's your favor, and I'll try if the famous Wangji pastry is really so delicious. And this piece of cloth, just to make a shirt for Brother Dasheng, so I can visit relatives some other day." Shi Du smiled, and put the gift box in his hand, indicating that he accepted it.

"If you want me to say, it's not as delicious as the cake made by Second Aunt, it's just a fresh one." Qing Zhu said with a smile.

"You girl, Cheng, turn around and Second Aunt made a cake, and brought it to you personally, so that you can taste it too." Shi Du nodded Qingzhu's forehead, showing a trace of intimacy that he didn't know if it was real or not.

"Then Qingzhu is waiting for Second Aunt's rice cake." Qingzhu smiled, her eyes were like crescent moons.

After Qingzhu left, Xia Zhengyuan slowly walked out from the back room, and said: "I said earlier that the green shirt is not easy, but I didn't expect Qingzhu to be even more difficult. Not to mention the superb medical skills, the luck is also very good, and the county magistrate was actually cured. It's like Madam, this reputation must be spread sooner or later. But she is neither arrogant nor impetuous, and still understands the ways of the world. Our old Xia family has produced a remarkable person."

"Girl Qingzhu, is she really so powerful?" Du's eyes lit up, looking at Xia Zhengyuan and asked.

"I'm afraid it's even more powerful than we could have imagined. This can be regarded as the good fortune of our old Xia family." Xia Zhengyuan said with a meaningful look at Du Shi.

"Then I'll make cakes tomorrow." Shi Du said with a smile.

"Let's fight, let's fight, use this year's new rice and make more." Xia Zhengyuan said thoughtfully.

"Success, I'm going to soak the rice now." After speaking, Xia Dushi rolled up his sleeves and prepared to soak the rice.

Naturally, Qingzhu didn't know that because of her casual words, Xia Dushi was so busy. Now she just feels very tired. After such a trick in the village, she got a lot of compliments and got a severe headache.

Ah Mo stood at the gate of the yard, watching Qingzhu's figure gradually become clear without blinking, until she walked in front of him.

"Are you tired?" Ah Mo's voice was the same as usual, without too much ups and downs, but those words were genuine concern, even Ah Mo himself didn't realize that there was a flash in his eyes Distressed.

"Tired..." Qing Zhu nodded, looking a little bored.

"You should go again tomorrow." Ah Mo said, frowning slightly.

"I can't help it. If I go tomorrow, I'm not sure what people will say about me. It's all sophistication. Besides, the convenience I enjoy, the trouble I have to face. Fortunately, it's just a walk in the village. , it’s not too troublesome, but I just feel a little tired after listening to people of my age complimenting me as a little girl. I don’t know if I’m tired for them or for myself..." Qingzhu rubbed the sides of her forehead helplessly said the temple.

"Now I admit that I am a little girl." A smile appeared on the corner of Ah Mo's eyes: "Then let's go, little girl, let's go and relax."

"Relax? What are you going to do?" Qing Zhu looked at Ah Mo and asked curiously.

"Call Qingshan and Xiaobai, let's go hunting, the game we hunted will be roasted directly on the mountain, and we'll come back after dinner, what do you think?" Ah Mo asked, looking at Qingzhu.

"Is it too late?" Qing Zhu hesitated.

"It's not too late, sister, I haven't been to the mountains for a long time, and I have to go to school again tomorrow, let's go and relax." Qingshan's words came from the yard, followed by a bunt and a waistband. He walked out with a small sickle and a green shirt with a small pannier on his back.

No wonder he refused to follow him to the village. It turned out that he was digging wild vegetables before changing clothes and preparing at home.

"Success, then let's go." Qingzhu thought that he hadn't gone up the mountain for a long time, and maybe he could dig some medicinal materials along the way. In addition, Qingshan studied hard and worried about himself for many days. I needed to relax, so I stopped objecting and nodded in agreement.

"Wait for me to get the medicine betel and the medicine hoe." Qingzhu said, walked into the yard, carried her own things on her back, and asked curiously: "Where is Xiaobai?"

"That guy can't sit still, he ran up the mountain a long time ago, but sister, don't worry, it should be waiting for us." Qingshan grinned.

Walking to the foot of the mountain, a group of white shadows rushed over, threw themselves into Qingzhu's arms, and rubbed her coquettishly for a while.

"Smelly Xiaobai, you've dirty my elder sister's clothes." Seeing Xiaobai and Qingzhu's affection, Qingshan patted Xiaobai's head unhappily, and said with a stinky face.

Xiaobai tilted his head to look at Qingzhu's clothes, seeing that Qingzhu's clothes were still clean, he rubbed his head against Qingzhu a few times, then glanced at Qingshan with disdain, his eyes full of disdain.

Qingshan was despised by Xiaobai, and suddenly became a little crazy, and stretched out his hand to catch Xiaobai.

Qingzhu couldn't help laughing, quickly stopped Qingshan, and said to Xiaobai who was in her arms: "Go down quickly, lead the way, I can't hold you anymore."

Xiaobai grows very fast, but in two months, he has grown to a foot and a half. The key is that this guy is still very strong, weighing at least 20 kilograms, and it is still not easy to hold in his arms.

Hearing Qingzhu's words, Xiaobai turned around in Qingzhu's arms reluctantly, then jumped off Xiaobai's arms, and led the way in front with his head held high.

Because they mainly came to play, Qingzhu and Qingshan didn't take herbs and dig wild vegetables very seriously. Anyway, they dug when they saw them on the roadside, and they didn't deliberately look for them.

On the contrary, Xiaobai was very strong, and soon found a nest of wild rabbits. Ah Mo blocked one hole, and asked Xiaobai to guard another hole, and he had a handful of cypress trees at the remaining hole in his spare time. Leaves, fumes down the rabbit hole.

The hares soon blew up their nests. Except for the blocked hole, several rabbits escaped from the other two holes.Xiaobai took one bite at a time, and the rabbits that came out of the hole he was guarding had their throats cut off one after another, and their legs turned upside down when they kicked.Ah Mo's eyes were quick, and all the rabbits that ran from his hole were caught by him and tied together with vines.

As for Qingzhu and Qingshan, they can only watch the fun from the sidelines, anyway, if they don't make trouble, they will be a big help to Xiaobai and Ah Mo.

Four half-sized rabbits and two particularly fat wild rabbits became their possessions in such a fast way that people smacked their tongues.

"Do you want to continue?" Qing Zhu looked at the harvest on the ground and asked.

"Of course we will continue." Ah Mo smiled, looking into the depths of the forest. As for Xiao Bai, he had already touched the forest, and after a while, he dragged back a pheasant whose wings had been bitten off.

Because of Ah Mo's word "Continue", the small animals in the forest suffered disasters. They were either shot to death by Ah Mo's arrows, or Xiao Bai caught them and bit off their wings or legs, or even bit off their necks altogether. Can't die anymore.

The harvest in one afternoon was more than Ah Mo's hunting in the previous two months, as if... Ah Mo was preparing meat for them for the winter.

For no reason, Qingzhu felt a little flustered.It was as if something was about to slip through her fingertips, making it impossible for her to grasp it no matter what.

"What's wrong?" Ah Mo asked with concern while holding up the pheasant that was roasting on the fire.

"It's nothing, it's just smoked a bit." Qing Zhu shook her head, wiped her eyes and said.

Yeah, just got smoked a bit.From the day she saved him, she knew that this man who called himself Ah Mo was not that simple.

But damn it, who told her, who invented the phrase "love with each passing day"?
