The Resplendent Farming Apothecary - Chapter 693

[Chapter six hundred and ninety third disaster and the inn]

Cheng Zhifu entered the door, seeing the situation, he hurriedly smiled and said, “It’s true that the official is here. It’s not the time to disturb the divine doctor’s meal…”

At this time, the people at the table who were asked by Gu Ye to stay and dine together were Dapeng, Aunt Yan, and Yueyuan. Gu Ye didn’t like to eat alone, saying that it would be delicious to eat with more people.

Cheng Zhifu’s gaze swept through the four, and finally stayed on Yan Yan’s body – no way, the other two little girls are too young, and the only man has the temperament of a military general, which is not suitable for a genius doctor. side. In his opinion, Aunt Yan, who is in her thirties and dressed simply, is the most suitable for the nature of a genius doctor.

Unexpectedly, it was the youngest girl who spoke first: “Sir, don’t be too polite. Have you eaten dinner? If not, let’s have it together!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Aunt Yan and Yueyuan got up together. , added two stools beside the table, and two sets of tableware. What else did Cheng Zhifu not understand? The only owner here is the little girl.

Cheng Zhifu suppressed the surprise in his heart, and asked politely: “Excuse me, can the subordinate see Mr. Donglingguo’s genius doctor?”

Yueyuan stared at him with round almond eyes and looked at him strangely: ” Lord prefect, our girl is here, who else do you want to see?”

Cheng Zhifu finally showed a shocked expression, opened his mouth, and finally showed a shy smile, saying: “The genius doctor is young, and the old man is narrow-minded! The old man is here this time…”

“I already know the purpose of the prefect. Let’s eat first, the food will be cold!” Gu Ye took a piece of braised pork that is fat and thin, brought it to his mouth, and ate it with relish . Aunt Yan’s craftsmanship has improved again, this braised pork is absolutely amazing.

Cheng Zhifu and General Li, who was guarding the city, looked at each other. This matter is really urgent, and neither of them have eaten. Looking at a table of fragrant dishes, they feel even more hungry.

After tasting the delicacies on the table, Cheng Zhifu couldn’t help but slap his palms and said: “I don’t know how crouching tigers hide dragons in our inn. This chef’s craftsmanship definitely surpasses that of the chefs in Qingfeng Building. Especially this one. Braised pork, fat but not greasy, melts in your mouth, rich and mellow. Great goodness!”

He pondered, and he must dig this cook back to the government office later. Bring it with you when you go back to Beijing.

Aunt Yan bowed and thanked humbly: “Thank you for your praise, Lord Prefect, Qiu Tong really doesn’t dare…”

The expression on Cheng Zhifu’s face was condensed, and he stammered a little: “This… these dishes are your craftsmanship. ?”

Gu Ye smiled and said, “I have a stubborn mouth and a weak body. My mother was afraid that I would suffer along the way, so she packed the family cook with me. Thanks to Aunt Yan, it took me more than ten days to catch up. Lu, not only has not lost weight, but has gained a few kilograms. By the way, this Xicheng also has Qingfeng Building?”

Cheng Zhifu resisted his disappointment and replied, “All the prefectures in Yan Kingdom have Qingfeng Building. Xicheng is in the Yan Kingdom, and it is a big city that can be counted to the top three, of course there are!”

“Great! Aunt Yan, you can rest tomorrow, let’s go to Qingfeng Building for dinner!” Gu Ye remembered in his heart. Due to the epidemic in the suburbs, I decided to stay in Xicheng for a few more days.

After hearing the words, General Li raised his head from his rice bowl, and reminded kindly, “Girl the genius doctor, you need to make a reservation a few days in advance when you go to Qingfeng Building. Otherwise, even the prefect may not have it. The face is fixed at the table.”

Cheng Zhifu glared at General Li – what nonsense is telling the truth, does this old man want to lose face? Delicious food can’t stop your mouth!

“If the genius doctor wants to go to Qingfeng Building for dinner, the old man will definitely give up his old face and replace the girl with a table…” As his prefect, he still has the face to book a table with someone else!

“You don’t need to trouble the prefect…” Gu Ye wanted to say that she never had to book in advance at Qingfeng Building, and it was the best private room.

Cheng Zhifu was afraid that she would not trouble him, so he continued: “No trouble, no trouble!”

Fortunately, Aunt Yan prepared a few more dishes in order for the girl to use more. Otherwise, it may not be enough to have two more people who are crazy about inhaling meals.

After the soup was full, Cheng Zhifu said straight to the point: “The genius doctor must have heard about the epidemic situation in the suburbs of Xicheng. This old man is bold and wants to ask the genius doctor to show mercy and help the poor people…

” After falling, there was a commotion from the inn outside, General Li frowned, and strode out. After a while, he walked in again with a worried face and said to Cheng Zhifu: “Sir, a Zhizhou in the post house who was transferred to Shuzhou, his family found symptoms similar to the epidemic…”

“What? Hurry up and free up. An empty yard to isolate people. Also, people who have been in contact with the patient should be placed in a separate yard for observation! In addition, fetch lime and sprinkle it on every corner of the inn…” Cheng Zhifu was most worried thing finally happened. Inside Xicheng, an epidemic was discovered!

General Li said with a wry smile: “I’m afraid it’s too late! This official’s family has been in the inn for three whole days and has come into contact with a lot of people. He also visited the most lively commercial area in Xicheng for a few times…”

When Cheng Zhifu heard this, he slumped down on his chair. It’s over, it’s over. He has worked diligently in Xicheng for three years, and now it has been completely destroyed by the epidemic. If Xicheng, like Lengcheng, becomes the hardest hit area of the epidemic, I am afraid that he will be pushed out as a scapegoat like the prefect of Lengcheng, out of anger from the common people…

Gu Ye rubbed his somewhat stretched stomach and decided to go to bed Find something to digest. She said to Yueyuan: “Go, bring my medicine box, let’s go see the patient.” When

Dapeng heard this, he suddenly became nervous: “Girl, that is a terrible plague, you are weak, You can’t touch it. If you have any accident, your subordinates can’t be blamed for their death!”

Yueyuan said with her eyes crossed: “General Dapeng, you underestimate our girl too much. Our girl can even be cured of tuberculosis. Afraid of small plagues?”

“There are many kinds of plagues, and many plagues, such as smallpox, are much more severe than tuberculosis!” Dapeng tried to persuade Gu Ye.

Yueyuan smiled and said, “The girl and I   have both been planted with cowpox and are immune to smallpox! But General Dapeng, you better stay away so as not to be infected!” , that is much scarier than contracting the plague. He will peel me off!

Cheng Zhifu heard that even though she was young, the genius doctor girl was able to cure tuberculosis and was immune to smallpox… Could it be… is it from the Gu family in Donglingyan City? Isn’t the medicine to prevent smallpox developed by the pharmacists of Gu’s Pharmaceuticals?

His heart at this time, like a roller coaster, went down to the valley and then went up again. The fortune teller said that he was in trouble this year, but there were noble people to help him. Did it not come true this time? The plague of Xicheng is his calamity, and the little girl who is a genius doctor is a noble person who helps him!

Gu Ye was led to a remote yard in the post house, and there was the suppressed cry of a child. Walking into the courtyard, outside a room with doors and windows closed, a young woman was wiping her tears sadly.

As soon as she saw General Li, she recognized that he was the one who gave orders to have her son locked up, and rushed over, knelt in front of him, and begged, “Sir, I beg you, let me go in and accompany Jing’er. , he’s only five years old, he would be scared if he was locked in a small dark room alone!”

“Mother, Jinger’s stomach hurts so much, Jinger is afraid. Woohoo… Mother, it’s so dark in the room, Jinger is afraid… “…” There was a miserable cry of a child in the room.

“Sir, these few days, Jing’er and I have shared a bed with me. I may have already been sick. Please, my lord, put me in together…” The young lady cried miserably.

In another room in the courtyard, a refined man about the same age as the young lady walked out. He came over, bowed politely to Cheng Zhifu and General Li, and persuaded his wife: “The adults are also doing things according to the rules, so don’t make it difficult for the adults. Jinger… Jiren has a natural appearance… ”

His voice was a little choked. Jinger is his only son, intelligent and sensible. The person he’d rather get sick is him…

Mrs. Zhizhou rushed over, tore at the front of his shirt, and cried hysterically: “You are so cruel! Jing’er was acquired by me with great difficulty. If he dies, I will not be able to live anymore… When the time comes, you Then you can marry a new wife and give birth to a son for you!”

Mrs. Zhizhou has been married for three years before she has such a single seedling. In the past three years, she has gone through so many hardships and looked at her mother-in-law. Every night in the dead of night, she can only swallow her tears… Jinger is sick, but her husband doesn’t make any effort, just think Giving up really broke her heart!

“That…can I diagnose the pulse for the two of them?” Gu Ye, who was left to the side, hurriedly said when he saw that the two were just tearing at each other.

Cheng Zhifu hurriedly said: “This is a genius doctor invited by the imperial family in Beijing from Dongling. He has a lot of research on epidemics. Madam, please don’t be sad, Linglang’s condition may have a turn for the better.”

Madam Zhizhou heard the words, as if grasping Taking a life-saving straw, he rushed towards Gu Ye. Dapeng’s expression changed, he hurriedly stepped forward and stopped in front of Gu Ye. The woman herself said that she has been eating and living with sick children for several days. Who knows if there is that… what is going on? Oh germs! Never let her touch the girl!

Mrs. Zhizhou also seemed to understand something, so she stopped in a hurry, knelt in front of Gu Ye three paces away, and kept kowtowing and begging: “I beg the mistress of the miraculous doctor, save my family Jinger. Be a cow and a horse in the next life, and you will definitely pay back. Your kindness from the divine doctor.”

Gu Ye pushed Dapeng away, took a step forward, and helped Mrs. Zhizhou up. In the process of helping people, her hand was on the pulse of the woman. Judging from the pulse, this Mrs. Zhizhou was in good health, and no abnormality was found.
