Song Yi

Chapter 6
The next day, Du Wenhao was still asleep when he heard someone knocking on the door, and answered vaguely, "Who is it?"

"It's me! I've brought you washing water, haven't you woken up yet? Slacker!"

Hearing that the voice was Xue Fei'er, Du Wenhao woke up immediately, opened his eyes and saw that the small window had already turned white, and it was already dawn, so he hurriedly got up and said, "It's Snow Maiden, please wait." Wait, I'll get up right away."

Du Wenhao put on his robe in a hurry, pulled out the latch and squeaked open the dilapidated wooden door, only to see Xue Fei'er standing at the door, with curved willow eyebrows and bright almond eyes, smiling mischievously at him, with two cute smiles showing at the corners of her mouth. Little Huya, wearing a light red embroidered narrow-sleeved short jacket, white rust-edged double-breasted small waistcoat, slightly protruding breasts, and a blue long skirt on the lower body.Holding a heavy wooden basin in his hand, half a basin of clear water, with a white towel on the side of the basin, he smiled and said, "Here, the washing water is here, wash your face quickly!"

"It's so embarrassing to ask Miss Xue to bring the washing water in person. It's so polite! Thank you! Thank you!" Du Wenhao hurriedly took the washbasin and put it on the washbasin by the door, "Please come in, girl, please sit down ...!"

Looking back, I found that there were no chairs or stools in the room, and the bedding on the bed was messy, and it was not easy for the older girl to sit on it, blushing and busy tidying up the bed.

"Let me come!" Xue Fei'er rushed over to make the bed, and said while making the bed, "Hurry up and wash your face, the towels are mine, clean!"

Du Wenhao had already picked up the towel, he couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, and put the towel down embarrassingly.

Xue Feier wondered: "What's the matter? Do you think it's dirty?"

"No, no! No, how can I... how dare I use the girl's towel?"

"The inn doesn't provide towels, and it will cost money to buy them for you. You don't have much money, so you need to save it to buy a doctor's office. Anyway, I have a lot of towels. This one is new, so I gave it to you. I just used it a few days ago, and I washed it well last night, so I'm afraid you might dislike it." Xue Fei'er saw that Du Wenhao still didn't move, she put on a pretty face, and put the quilt that was being folded in her hand on the bed After throwing it away, he said angrily, "If you want to dislike it, go to the street and buy one yourself!"

"No, no, that's not what I mean, I just feel..., I feel that the girl is really kind to me, and she is really thoughtful. Thank you! I'll just use this one, but it's just a little abrupt, girl." Du Wenhao knew this snow Fei'er was outspoken, she wanted to grind it out, but it would make her unhappy. After thanking her quickly, she picked up a towel and soaked it in water, rubbed it a few times, wrung it dry and began to wash her face.

Only then did Xue Fei'er laugh, and while continuing to make the bed, she said: "What's so abrupt, you scholars are so sour and uncomfortable to hear, hurry up and wash up, I will take you to the doctor later."

Du Wenhao was taken aback for a moment: "Outpatient visit?"

"That's right! You only made a little money last night, which is not enough for your capital. I promised to help you earn the initial capital of Ling's doctor's practice. Of course, you must keep your word, so early this morning, I went out to help you find a patient. I have already found two, both of which need you to go to the doctor at home, I guess you got up, so I came to call you, washed your face and had breakfast, and I will take you there."

Du Wenhao's heart warmed up, he cupped his hands and said, "Miss is so kind to me, I really can't repay you."

"You're welcome. I can see that you have a good heart and an honest person. Kindness should be rewarded, so it's also right to help you. Alright, wash your face quickly, and I'll get you breakfast."

"Oh, this is too troublesome girl!"

"You're welcome, but you have to make it clear that I will charge you for your accommodation and breakfast!"

"Ah? You didn't say last night... How much will it cost?" Du Wenhao was a little nervous, but of course he had to pay for the hotel, so there was no need to say that.

"Hee hee, look at how nervous you are, are you afraid that I will blackmail you? Don't worry! I told my father, and my father promised to give you a discount. This single room is ten yuan for others to stay, and you only charge you five yuan, and two breakfasts Wotou has a bowl of porridge, others charge you four coins, but you only charge you two coins, it’s half price, how about it?”

"Oh, thank you very much, girl!" Du Wenhao breathed a sigh of relief, remembered something, and hurriedly asked: "I haven't counted the steamed buns last night, how much?"

Xue Fei'er said angrily: "You really think I'm tricking money? Hmph! I gave you leftover steamed buns last night, so I'll give it to you, no money will be charged!"

"Hehe, thank you, girl!"

"If you don't want to be a girl, just call me by my name."

"Oh, I heard Shopkeeper Lin call you Fei'er, so should I call you that too?"

"Okay, that's what everyone I know calls me."

"Well, your name sounds pretty nice, Xue Fei'er—" Du Wenhao shook his head and said nonsense, "Snowflakes are flying, and the north wind is blowing. The so-called Yiren is in the river."

Xue Fei'er covered her mouth and giggled, "Oh, it's so sour, I can't stand you!"

Du Wenhao laughed, and counted seven copper coins and handed them to Xue Feier, which was used as shop money and meal money.

Xue Fei'er went to serve breakfast, Du Wenhao rinsed his mouth with salt water willow branches, Xue Fei'er had already returned with breakfast on a tray.Du Wenhao finished eating in a hurry, the noodles were still coarse grains, chewing in his mouth like a bite of sand, and the porridge was also boiled brown rice.Du Wenhao didn't care, and thought to himself, it's pretty good to eat a meal for two renminbi. After all, this is the Song Dynasty, not a street of snacks in modern society. Xue Feier deliberately saved money for herself. .

After Du Wenhao finished eating, Xue Fei'er cleaned up the dishes and was about to take Du Wenhao out, but Du Wenhao stopped and said, "I want to go and see that child's boil first, to see how it heals."

Xue Fei'er smiled and said: "Don't worry, I just went to see you when I came to see you, and the child was sleeping soundly. The boils healed well, and there was no festering. Your medical skills are really good!"

The stone in Du Wenhao's heart finally fell, and he followed Xue Fei'er to the inn lobby.

A chubby old man was behind the counter in the inn, pulling an abacus. Xue Feier took Du Wenhao up to him, slapped the seven copper coins on the counter, and said, "Father! This is the one I told you about last night. The child is staying in Du Langzhong in our inn for treatment, this is his shop money for yesterday and the meal money for the morning. Du Langzhong, this is my father. My father's surname is Song."

Du Wenhao hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Shopkeeper Song!"

Shopkeeper Song smiled and nodded, touched the seven copper coins on the counter, counted them, carefully put them into a metal money box behind him, locked them, then turned around and came out of the cabinet with great effort, shaking his long hair He clasped his fists and said, "Du Langzhong, did you sleep well last night?"

"not bad."

"Well, I heard my little girl tell you about your free medical treatment for poor children yesterday. I am very impressed. It really makes the shop flourish if someone like Doctor can stay here. Hehehe."

This shopkeeper Song is a material for doing business, and the implementation of harmony and wealth is very well implemented. Du Wenhao cupped his hands and said: "Shopkeeper Song has won the prize!"

"If Du Langzhong needs anything in the future, just tell me, and I will try my best to do it."

"Good to say! Thank you very much!"

Xue Fei'er said to shopkeeper Song: "Father, I took Du Langzhong to a doctor's appointment."

"Okay!" Shopkeeper Song nodded with a smile.

The two went out of the gate, and the shop assistant had already prepared a donkey cart and waited at the gate.The number of horses in the Song Dynasty was relatively small, and they were mostly used for military affairs and court official duties. The common people generally rode ox carts or donkey carts, and the rich mostly rode sedan chairs.

Du Wenhao was a little surprised: "Go by car?"

"Well, the road is a bit far. I went to the west city. It takes about an hour to walk back and forth. The other one is in the south city, and I have to make a big detour. It will take another hour. The time is spent on walking. , it’s not cost-effective, so I prepared a car for you. After seeing these two patients, I will help you find another patient, and I may need a car.”

"Your father also counts money for this donkey cart?" Du Wenhao knew from the look in the shopkeeper Song's eyes when he saw the copper coins just now, that he was a miser. He could get a discount for his daughter's sake, but it would definitely not be free.

Xue Fei'er smiled embarrassedly: "Yes, it's also half price. Rent it to others for [-] Wen a day, and rent it to you for only [-] Wen. Of course, you have to save money and don't rent a donkey cart, you'd rather walk. I will accompany you."

Du Wenhao had been walking all day yesterday, his back was sore, and he really didn't want to go anymore. Besides, renting a car for a day only costs ten Wen, which is ten yuan in RMB. Renting a car for ten yuan is really not expensive , besides, the consultation fee is doubled, ten yuan per person, twenty yuan in total, and half of the income, and you have to find other patients, so you should still earn money, so he smiled: "No, no, it's better to take the car. It is convenient and quick, and the legs will become thinner after two hours of walking, and the shoes are so rotten that they all go away."

Xue Feier giggled.

At this time, the fat guy standing at the door of the "Wuweitang" diagonally opposite was holding a medicine box in his hand. Seeing Du Wenhao and the others coming out, he happily ran over: "Du Langzhong, here is the medicine box, here it is."

Du Wenhao was a little surprised: "This..."

Xue Fei'er smiled and said: "I borrowed it from shopkeeper Lin for you. Of course, you have to bring a medicine box with you when you visit a doctor. How can you go to see a doctor empty-handed?"

Only then did Du Wenhao understand, and he said gratefully, "Thank you Miss Xue! Ah no, Fei'er, where's shopkeeper Lin? Is she there? I want to thank her in person."

"Yes!" Silly Fatty said with a low waist, "Our shopkeeper is in the store. Doctor Chai who sits in the hall sent a letter saying that he has no face to work in Wuweitang anymore. He got up early in the morning and went back to his hometown. Shopkeeper Lin is thinking about what to do now. Where can I find a sitting doctor?"
