Chapter 136, Preparing for Branches
"It's no wonder that people dislike him. It's no wonder that someone likes him." Shi Fuxin looked angrily at Chu Yao who was going away, "If you say I look like a pig, I think he is a pig."
Shi Fuyin also frowned: "This Young Master Yao is indeed not a good person, so he must avoid it in the future."
Shi Fuxin was stunned for a moment, not understanding why her sister's hostility towards Chu Yao suddenly became so deep.
Shi Fuyin: "He came to the National Women's Prison to look for Miss Dongfang Wu in such a grand manner. If the marriage between the two of them fails in the end, it will have a bad reputation for Miss Dongfang Wu. If he really likes Miss Dongfang Fifth, how could he be so?"
Shi Fuxin rubbed her chin: "Probably he also knows that his reputation is too bad, and he thinks that the Ming government will not agree, so he wants to deal with the fifth Dongfang girl first, as long as Dongfang girl nods, he will be able to hug the beauty back. "
Shi Fuyin frowned tightly: "He only cares about himself, and doesn't think about Dongfang Wu girls at all. This person has bad character."
Shi Fuxin nodded in agreement: "It's really not possible."
Shi Fuyin warned again: "When you meet him in the future, you must stay away from him." After Shi Fuxin nodded, Shi Fuxin took her in a carriage and went to the Imperial College to wait for Shi Dinghao.
The two sisters didn't wait long when they saw Shi Dinghao coming out of the Imperial Prison alone.
Seeing that he was the only one and young master Zhao was not there, Shi Fuxin was surprised and said, "Jiulang, where is little brother Zhao?"
Shi Dinghao was a little listless, and didn't answer right away. After getting into the carriage, he said sullenly: "Zhao Shenghao went to play cuju with others."
Shi Fuxin was even more surprised: "Why aren't you with him?"
Shi Dinghao's face was broken: "They won't take me to play together."
Shi Fuxin and Shi Fuyin were taken aback, and quickly looked at each other.
No need to ask, Shi Dinghao, like them, encountered the same problem and was excluded.
Shi Dinghao was a little sad at the moment: "I thought I was familiar with everyone, but I didn't expect that they didn't really accept me at all."
Shi Fuxin asked: "Jiulang, who did brother Zhao go to Cuju with?"
Shi Dinghao said in a muffled voice: "It's the young masters of the Duke's and Hou's families in the class." He said, looking at Shi Fuxin and Shi Fuyin, "On weekdays, I can get along well with everyone. Why did you leave me behind during cuju?"
Shi Fuxin: "Brother Zhao didn't take the initiative to call you?"
Shi Dinghao: "He was also temporarily called by Tian Size from Dongshengbo's house. He didn't even know what a Cuju team was before."
Shi Fuxin asked again: "Are all the members of the Cuju team come from the families of high-ranking officials?"
Shi Dinghao thought for a while, then nodded: "Well, the people with the worst family background in the Cuju team are all from the families of third-rank officials."
Shi Fuxin showed clarity: "Jiulang, they don't play with you because there is a gap between your family background and theirs."
Shi Dinghao didn't understand: "I'm also the son of the Bo family."
Shi Fuxin: "The Bo's House is different from the Bo's House. Our family has the name of the Bo's House without any real power. In the eyes of those people, it is worthless."
Shi Dinghao showed disapproval: "But I am valuable. I am good at lightness kung fu, and I am most suitable for Cuju."
Shi Fuxin was silent for a while: "Your light work is good, but for those people, winning or losing Cuju is not that important, it's just a way to communicate and deepen the bond."
Shi Dinghao was discouraged, but still couldn't help muttering: "But I usually play well with them."
Shi Fuxin: "There are some relationships, it's okay to have fun, but it's not good if you want to go further. If you want to enter the inner circle, you have to exchange it with corresponding value."
"Obviously, at this moment, you can't give enough value to let them take you to play."
Shi Dinghao frowned: "Then what should I do, I really want to play Cuju?"
Shi Fuxin: "You form a Cuju team yourself. With so many students in the Imperial College, it's hard to find a Cuju team member? If you are good enough, you can pull up an invincible Cuju team. Maybe those who reject you today I'll come back and beg you to join them."
Shi Dinghao's eyes lit up: "Yes, I can form a team by myself."
Seeing his younger brother's smiling face again, Shi Fuxin and Shi Fuyin looked at each other and smiled.
Two quarters of an hour later, the three siblings returned to the uncle's mansion.
When passing by Yixiangtang, I found that the girls of the Shi family were all gathered in the yard.
"You didn't have class today?"
Second girl Shi Fuyue saw that when Fuyin and the three came back, she said with a smile, "Mrs. Baoninghou is here today, and grandma asked us to come see the guests."
As soon as the words were finished, Nanny An came out with a smile, holding a tray in her hand, which contained two strings of pearl necklaces and a wolf hair pen.
"Third Miss, Sixth Miss, this is a gift from Mrs. Bao Ninghou, and this Langhao pen is for Master Jiu."
Shi Fuxin took the pearl necklace and looked at Nanny An curiously: "Do you all have it?"
Nurse An nodded with a smile: "There are all of them. The girls in the family all got a string of pearl necklaces, and the young masters all got a Langhao pen."
Hearing this, Shi Fuxin raised her eyebrows, the Shi family has a lot of girls and young masters, so Mrs. Baoning Hou's visit to the uncle's house would cost a lot of money.
These days, if you don't have any family background, you won't even be ashamed to drop by.
"What is Mrs. Baoninghou doing here?"
Nurse An: "The Mrs. Tai and the old lady of Baoninghou's family are old friends, and Mrs. Baoninghou came to visit the old lady on behalf of her mother-in-law."
Shi Fuxin nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Old friend?
I haven't moved around for so many years, and this sudden visit is probably not just a visit.
After greeting Mrs. Shi, Shi Fuxin went back to Lanyue Building. Once back, she went into the study and continued to immerse herself in writing medical training books.
It was almost time for dinner, An Ran came in and called Shi Fuxin: "Girl, the Fourth Madam sent someone to say that the meal is ready, so you should come over early."
Shi Fuxin let out an 'um', and only put down the pen after writing the last word.
An Ran stepped forward to clean up the table, and said while cleaning up: "Girl, Mrs. Baoning Hou came to the door today, and she asked the old lady to ask for a purse."
Fuxin was cleaning her hands at the time, and when she heard that, she raised her head in surprise: "Purse?"
An Ran nodded her head: "It's the kind of purse you gave everyone when you returned home."
Shi Fuxin said 'oh': "Did grandma give it?"
An Ran: "Yes, I returned two."
Shi Fuxin smiled and said: "If that's the case, then the Baoninghou Mansion didn't cost much today."
An Ran didn't understand what Shi Fuxin meant at first, but when she saw Shi Fuxin sitting in front of the dressing table and fiddled with the pearl necklace given by Marquis Baoning, she suddenly understood.
Shi Fuxin: "How do people in Baoninghou Mansion know about purses?"
An Ran replied: "Uncle Wei's nephew used to be a bedridden patient, but now he is able to move around like a normal person. Seeing how well he is, the relatives and friends of the Wei family have to ask. Girl, you sent the purse."
Shi Fuxin: "So that's how it is." She said with a smile, "Before the purses in grandma's hands are finished, our house will probably be lively for a while."
This word, when An Ran went to inquire about Mrs. Bao Ninghou's coming to the mansion today, Mother An also said it.
An Ran glanced at her own girl: "Young Master Wei is in good health, Second Aunt and Grandma will probably bring the Wei family to the door to thank you."
Saying that, he got up and walked out the door.
An Ran hurriedly followed, and after realizing Shi Fuxin's dislike for Shi Yuhua, she didn't mention a single word about the Wei family in the following journey.
It was indeed as Shi Fuxin expected, in the next month or so, people who came to Wuchangbo Mansion to beg for purses never stopped.
During the period, Mrs. Shi took Jin Yue'e to entertain the guests throughout the whole process, giving pointers from time to time.
After a month, there were more people received, and Jin Yue'e was already able to deal with the female relatives from other houses with ease.
After sending away Mrs. Dong from the Imperial Hospital, Mrs. Shi returned to Yiming Hall with a brisk expression. As soon as she returned, she saw Shi Fulin sitting in the room and flipping through the posts she had received during this period.
"Mother."
When Shi Fulin saw that Mrs. Shi looked a little tired, she quickly poured her a cup of tea: "Mother has worked hard."
Madam Shi took the tea happily, took a sip before smiling and said, "I'm a little tired during this time, but mother is happy in her heart, and she is happy to keep being so tired."
As he spoke, he picked up the post on the table with a complicated look on his face, "The purse, which we didn't like at the beginning, has now become a rarity that everyone is vying for."
Shi Fulin lowered her eyes and said nothing. When the fourth aunt gave her the purse, she didn't want it because she hated it.
It is impossible to want one now.
Second sisters, because they wear purses every day, their skin becomes smoother and more delicate. When she saw her, she would be lying if she said she was not envious.
Shi Da Furen looked at the silent daughter and sighed. Just as she was about to say something, she saw the servant girl walking in: "Da Furen, the Fourth Madam is here and said she wanted to ask you something."
At that time, the eldest lady stood up immediately, and was about to walk around the hall.
Shi Fulin was a little unhappy: "Mother, you are so tired, what's the matter with Fourth Aunt, can't I come to see you tomorrow?"
Mrs. Shi glanced at Shi Fulin, and put a stack of posts on the table into her hands: "Sister Lin, can our family go to these banquets in previous years?"
Flynn was taken aback for a moment.
Mrs. Shi continued: "The changes in the mansion are all because of your fourth uncle's family, who have benefited from others. We can't just say nothing. You must keep this truth in mind, otherwise, the road will become narrower and narrower." of."
The Wuchang uncle's mansion became lively with the naked eye. Not only did more people come to visit, but the three married aunts also came back frequently.
For these, Shi Fuxin did not participate too much. During this period of time, apart from going to the National Women's Prison to study, she has been busy writing medical training books.
On the third day of April, the National Women's Prison was on holiday, Shi Fuxin went to Anyefang, and met Ximen Fengxiao who had received a letter from the golden sculpture at Sai Hua Tuo Residence.
Seeing Shi Fuxin again, Ximen Fengxiao is still a little unaccustomed to being a twelve-year-old girl's errand servant.
"You, do you have any orders for me?"
Shi Fuxin saw his unwillingness and awkwardness, and said with a smile: "Call me Hall Master in the future."
Ximen Fengxiao: "."
Is this little girl planning to build a sect?
Return the hall master!
Shi Fuxin first gave him a bottle of antidote: "This bottle of antidote can ensure that the poison in you and Xue Quan's body will not recur for the next year."
Ximen Fengxiao accepted it blankly, thought for a while, and said, "Thank you."
Shi Fuxin smiled and said: "You are welcome to do things for me, and I will detoxify you, which is reasonable." Then, she took out three medical training books and a blueprint.
"You go to Rongcheng and give the medical training book to Shang Laojiu, the steward of Shennongtang; then you go to Tianshan and give the blueprint to my senior brother, I wrote letters to them, you don't have to say anything to them. "
Ximen Fengxiao looked a little surprised: "Shen Nong Hall? Tianshan?"
He is no stranger to these two names. Shennongtang is a pharmacy that popped up suddenly in the northwest border. The pills sold in it are now very famous in the Western Regions Protectorate.
As for the Tianshan Mountains, there are gods and doctors living on it, and almost everyone in the northwest border gate knows about it.
Shi Fuxin: "What, is there a problem?"
Ximen Fengxiao tentatively asked: "The hall master you are talking about is the hall master of Shennong hall?"
Shi Fuxin nodded: "Yes." As she spoke, she looked at Ximen Fengxiao with a smile, "Look at you, you seem to know Shennongtang too?"
Ximen Fengxiao's face was full of complexities. Could it be that he didn't know that Shennongtang pills were so effective that they spread to Hongshan Inn through word of mouth.
Xue Quan used some connections to buy a few bottles of pills.
After the trial, they confirmed that the pills were indeed as effective as others said, and they thought that the person who could make such pills must have good medical skills, so they went to Shennongtang together and asked the doctors of Shennongtang to help them relieve their pain. poison.
It turned out to be a waste of time.
Although there are doctors sitting in Shennong Hall, their medical skills are not very good.
He never expected that the doctor Shennongtang he was looking for was actually the little girl in front of him! !
Seeing the wry smile on Ximen Fengxiao's face, Shi Fuxin was happy: "You look like you have been to Shennongtang? If you can find it, I guess Shennongtang is doing well."
Ximen Fengxiao: "It's not bad, it's very good. There are so many people who want to buy Shennongtang pills. It doesn't matter if they can't buy them."
Shi Fuxin's eyes lit up: "Really, it's no wonder Shang Laojiu is so eager to open a branch." Then, she looked at Ximen Fengxiao, "What you have to do in the future is to help me keep an eye on the shops in the Western Regions. The Shennong Hall on the other side of the guard's mansion."
"The Protectorate of the Western Regions has nine large border towns. This time, I plan to open a Shennongtang branch in each of the nine border towns. Shang Laojiu is fully responsible for the specific matters. You just need to write to me what you see. gone."
Ximen Fengxiao looked at Shi Fuxin and was silent for a while before speaking: "Where is Tianshan?"
Shi Fuxin: "Well, just give the blueprint and letter to my senior brother."
Ximen Fengxiao: "Brother? Your medical skills are so high, is the old man Tianchi yours?"
Shi Fuxin glanced at him: "You have too many questions."
Ximen Fengxiao stopped talking, and swiftly put away the training booklet and blueprints: "If it's all right, then I'll go back to the Northwest."
Shi Fuxin: "Don't worry." Then she took out three more training books.
"This is for Xue Quan. There are many homeless children in the border area. Let him choose some clever ones to raise, and ask someone to teach them to read and write and learn medicine. This is 10,000 taels of silver. Let him remember it well. Account, I will check it at the end of each year."
Hearing this, Ximen Fengxiao was really surprised, took a deep look at Shi Fuxin, and solemnly put away the bank ticket and training booklet.
"I will tell Xue Quan." After a pause, "Xue Quan will take care of this matter, and I will help you take care of Shennongtang."
After Ximen’s family was wiped out, he also worked as a vagrant for a period of time.
No matter what the purpose of the little girl in front of him is, as long as she can help some homeless children, he is willing to work for her with peace of mind.
Shi Fuxin stood up with a smile, and encouraged: "Okay, as long as you are serious about doing things for me, I will consider removing the poison in your body in advance."
Ximen Fengxiao nodded, turned around and was about to leave, but just as he was about to step out the door, Shi Fuxin grabbed him.
"Don't go out, there are people outside."
Let’s talk about the relationship between the male and female protagonists. There is a five-year age difference between the male and female protagonists, and they are both more rational than emotional people. One wants to be recognized everywhere, and the other just wants to enjoy life comfortably. It is destined that neither of them will be the first for the other. choose.
For the heroine at the moment, the hero is just a handsome man with outstanding looks. When I meet him, I just want to take a second look;
For the male lead, the female lead is just a little girl now, and there is no love between men and women at all; in addition, the female lead's family background is not outstanding, and the male lead, who is a child of the royal family, looks down on the female lead at the moment.
