Denghuaxiao Chapter 29

Chapter 29 From the Wanfu Family

Spring in Shengjing is coming to an end, and the heat of summer is gradually beginning to take hold.

Early in the morning, the door of Ke's house in the south of the city was pushed open, and a middle-aged woman walked out.

This woman is wearing a half-worn honey-colored woven trousers, her hair is pulled into a bun, she has a plump figure, a very kind face, and she holds a bamboo hanging basket in her arm.

 The concierge greeted her: "Mother Wan."

The Wanfu family nodded in agreement and rushed towards the Guanxiang flower market.

Mrs. Ke likes sweets, and the Wanfu family is good at making sweets. They are best at steaming cakes made of various flowers. Recently, the old lady's favorite thing is to eat fallen plum cakes. Plum blossoms are crushed into juice and mixed into fresh shortbread cakes. They are pressed into the shape of small plum blossoms and served on a plate. They are beautiful and delicious.

But it's now past Grain Rain, and it's half a month before the beginning of summer, so the plum blossoms are already out of season. The plum blossoms currently being bought at the Guanxiang flower market were saved last year, and we have to wait until this winter to sell out. Therefore, Wanfu's family arrived a little early.

 When we arrived at Guanxiang, we could smell the wonderful fragrance even before we entered the flower market. There are many flowers in spring and summer, and there are flowers on various stalls. Mountain orchids, jasmine, peonies, purple orchids... are fragrant and lively everywhere.

The Wanfu family found a stall selling plum blossoms, bought all the remaining plum blossoms on the stall, and bought a few handfuls of herbs for sweets, and then headed back with a basket.

 There are already a lot of people at the entrance of Guanxiang, there are endless cars and horses, and the flower market is crowded with people. Aunt Wan was just walking out when a 12 or 13-year-old beggar suddenly popped out from outside the flower market. She bumped into someone, causing her to fall to the ground with an "ouch". She didn't wait to stop him. , the little beggar ran away when he saw something was not going well.

Half of Wan's body fell to the ground. She only felt a terrible pain in her ankles. She couldn't get up for a while. She held on and put the scattered flowers and plants into the basket, and cursed a few times in a low voice.

At this time, I suddenly heard someone speaking in my ear: "Are you okay, ma'am?"

Wanma looked up and saw two young girls standing in front of her.

One is pretty and smart, wearing cyan armor, with her hair in a maid's bun. The other is wearing a dark blue skirt, with red lips, white teeth, and smooth muscles and bones. He is looking at her with concern.

Wan Yan was so painful at this moment, and it was very inconvenient to come and go around. He said: "The troubled girl helps me to sit on the stone chair of the alley for a while."

The maid in green smiled and helped her up and said, "It doesn't matter."

nanny Wan was supported by these two people and walked outside to sit on a stone chair. She felt the pain in her ankle became more and more severe. She wanted to stand up and walk, but when she exerted force, she grimaced in pain again.

The girl in blue looked at her ankle and shook her head: "I twisted the bone. I can't walk now. It's best not to use force for three to five days."

Wan Maimai said "Yeah" and said in a panic: "This is bad."

She came out to buy plum blossoms. The flower market was still quite far away from Ke's house, and she couldn't make it in time if she even called for a carriage.

The girl in blue thought for a while and said to Grandma Wan: "Although the bone is twisted, it won't take half a day to heal with a little moxibustion using gold acupuncture."

“Acupuncture?” Wan Wan was confused, “Is there an acupuncture place nearby?”

The maid in green said with a smile: "I know there is a Renxin Medical Center nearby. It is very close to the flower market. Would you like to go and have a look?"

Grandma Wan was stunned: "Renxin Medical Clinic?" She looked surprised, "Is it the medical clinic that sells herbal tea for nasal congestion recently?"

The maid was startled, then smiled and said, "Have you heard of the name Renxin Medical Center?"

"Of course, the name of this herbal tea has been heard everywhere recently." Aunt Wan looked at her ankles, "Since everyone says that the herbal tea made by Renxin Medical Center is good, she probably has some real skills. Please bother me. Girls, send me to Renxin Medical Center. I will thank you both very much when my feet heal the day after tomorrow."

“It's just a small favor, don't worry about it, madam.” The maid glanced at the girl in blue with a smile, “Girl, let's help this lady over together.”

"good."

Lu Zhen and Yin Zheng helped Grandma Wan, who injured her ankle, to Renxin Medical Center.

Du Changqing was sitting in front of the medicine cabinet in a daze. When he saw Lu Zhuo coming back, he was a little surprised: "Doctor Lu, didn't you go buy flowers? Why are you back so early?"  Early in the morning, Renxin Medical Center just opened, Lu Zhuo told Du Changqing that he was going to the flower market to buy flowers and left first with the silver zheng.

After hearing what Du Changqing said, Grandma Wan looked at Lu Chen in surprise: "Doctor Lu...are you a doctor?"

 Lu Huo nodded.

Yin Zheng smiled and held Nanny Wan's arm and walked in: "Don't worry, auntie, my girl is very skilled in medicine. She is the one who made the herbal tea. I will give you a moxibustion on your ankle later. It will not hurt after a while." ”

Du Changqing was still a little unclear about the situation. After listening to Lu Zhuo's explanation, he looked at her with a confused look: "You have a kind heart and help the world everywhere." He leaned closer and asked in a low voice: "But you really know how to acupuncture. ? You can't be lying, right? I told you first, if someone exposes you, I can't protect you.”

Lu Zhen ignored him and went to the medical box to get a golden needle.

Outside, Nanny Wan was half-reclining on a reclining chair. She looked at Lu Shun with some doubts and said hesitantly: "Doctor Lu, if it doesn't work..."

"It belongs to the internal organs, and the external collaterals are connected to the limbs." Lu Yan had taken off Nanny Wan's shoes and socks, sat on a slightly shorter chair, and put the other party's legs on his knees.

She saw a big swollen lump on her ankle, which looked scary. She said, "After acupuncture, the meridians will be unobstructed and the swelling will subside. You will be able to go to the ground soon. Madam, don't worry." After that, she raised her hand and pricked the golden needle. Enter Wanma's ankles.

 Wan Mammy was so full that she couldn't even speak.

Lu Zhen's movements were too fast.

Seeing this, Yin Zheng poured a bowl of tea from the side and handed it to Nanny Wan. She said with a smile: "Don't worry, Madam. Since my girl is the doctor here, she is naturally very capable. Let's have a cup of tea first and wait until the moxibustion is finished." It'll be fine in about an hour.”

Wan Maimai took the tea and smiled reluctantly.

Yinzheng moved another stool and sat in front of Aunt Wan, chatting with her: "I just heard your aunt's accent. It doesn't sound like Shengjing's accent, but more like Yingchuan's."

When Aunt Wan heard this, her attention was diverted and she smiled and said, "Yes, I am from Yingchuan."

"Really?" Yin Zheng became happy: "My family is also from Yingchuan. I didn't expect to see my fellow villagers in Shengjing. What a fate!"

Aunt Wan was also surprised: "It's such a thing. No wonder I felt so amiable when I saw the girl today!"

The two of them, who were from the same hometown, suddenly met each other. Naturally, they felt infinite intimacy and immediately started chatting enthusiastically. Yin Zheng was always smart and lively, and she talked some hometown dialect with Nanny Wan, and soon she was very happy. Pulling Yin Zheng and calling her "my girl" affectionately. In my excitement, I even forgot about the golden needles on my ankles.

Du Changqing picked his ears, seeming a little bored with the chattering in the shop.

Lu Zhen smiled slightly.

Since entering Renxin Medical Center, she has never forgotten her mission and never slackened in asking about the Ke family.

This woman goes to the Guanxiang flower market shop every five or six days to buy some flowers and plants, and she speaks authentic Yingchuan dialect. When Yin Zheng first fell in love, he met a sister who lived in Yingchuan and learned a few words from her by chance.

So Lu Zhuo bribed the beggars at the entrance of the temple early and went to the Guanxiang Flower Market to act out a show of helping others.

 Collisions, kindness, attracting people, and fellow villagers are all just ways to deliberately get close to this woman.

She lowered her head, took out the last golden needle from the flannel, and slowly inserted it into the acupuncture point on Nanny Wan's wrist. Nanny Wan laughed and said: "There are few people in my house. The head of the house works with Mr. Ke. This morning is I came out to buy plum blossoms, but unfortunately I was hit by that little bastard, and a lot of the plum blossoms were broken."

Lu Zhen's hand holding the needle hesitated slightly.

After a moment, she raised her head with a smile and asked: "Master Ke? Are you the Ke family who sells porcelain in Shengjing?"
