Strange love across time and space

Su Qixuan found out that on the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, the imperial doctor Ding had a rest, so he and Su Rui took a day off from their respective yamen in advance. Taking gifts, they took Su Rui's colleague Shi Qingyan, who had leg problems, to the Ding Mansion. Shi Qingyan was on the fifth day of this year. He is ten years old and is responsible for organizing files in the household department. He has been suffering from leg problems for nearly ten years. Every time it is cloudy and rainy, the pain is excruciating. This time I heard that Su Rui said that he would take him to see Dr. Ding. I felt a little strange. I usually follow him in the Yamen. Su Rui's relationship was average, so why was Su Rui so kind this time? Besides, Dr. Ding treated the nobles in the palace, so how could he, a low-ranking official like himself, meet with the head of the hospital? After repeated questioning, Su Rui told Shi Qingyan the truth. Shi Qingyan laughed loudly after hearing this, "You kid, if you want to make a good impression in front of Dr. Ding, you are using me as an old man as a stepping stone!" Su Rui smiled sheepishly and said, "Master Shi's words are wrong. Although I will use you as a stepping stone!" It's a stepping stone, but you can also have the best doctor in the country look at your legs. My sister said it's a win-win situation!" Shi Qingyan thought it made sense, so he followed Su Rui and his son.

When I arrived at Ding's Mansion, I told the boy at the door. The boy hurried in to report. After a while, Doctor Ding personally came out to greet him. In fact, Su Qing had already had an affair with Ding Xiang and said that her father and eldest brother would go to Ding's house when Dr. Ding took a rest. Ding Xiang also told Dr. Ding that Dr. Ding originally thought that the Su family would disdain her request for a deeper understanding. Gu, after all, his daughter had a bad reputation, but she didn't expect that the Su family would pay so much attention to her. Doctor Ding was deeply moved. When he saw Su Qixuan and the others, he warmly invited everyone into the main hall.

Su Qixuan first introduced Dr. Ding and Shi Qingyan to each other. Dr. Ding took Shi Qingyan's pulse, looked at his legs, and said, "Master Shi, this is rheumatism that has been suffered for many years. It is difficult to cure it. I just I will prescribe some plasters for you. This plaster is a prescription jointly researched by several princes from Tai Hospital. It will relieve Master Shi a lot of pain and is much more effective than the plasters outside. Master Shi can try it. In addition, Master Shi can do it when he is free. Heat the coarse salt and put it in a cloth bag and apply it to the painful area, which will also have a certain effect." After saying that, he asked the medicine boy to bring some plasters.

Shi Qingyan hurriedly thanked him and asked, "May I ask Dr. Ding, where can I buy these plasters when they are used up?" Dr. Ding chuckled and said, "You can't buy them. This ointment is currently only available in Taiyuan Hospital. So, I'll give it to you." I am writing this to you. You go to the pharmacy outside and get the medicine. When you go home, grind it up yourself and make it into a paste. Apply it to the painful area. The effect is the same." Shi Qingyan said embarrassedly, "How can this happen? This is research from Tai Hospital. What a prescription! Can it be passed on to others?" Unexpectedly, Dr. Ding laughed and said, "I am a doctor, and doctors are like parents. If I have a good prescription, I naturally want the common people to know it. I know that many doctors outside now have their own ancestral traditions. The secret recipe, but I think that instead of hiding it, it is better to contribute it so that the people can get benefits and keep a good reputation!" Shi Qingyan cupped his hand again, "Mr. Ding has great love in his heart!" Dr. Ding disagreed and pointed with his fingers. Su Qixuan said, "I learned it all from his daughter! Miss Su is broad-minded at a young age and contributes first-aid treatment methods without any secrets, which is admirable!" Su Qixuan said with a smile, "Mr. Ding is so complimentary." In his heart. In fact, I have already been happy for a long time. Of course my daughter, Su Qixuan, is different from others!

Shi Qingyan was cured of the disease and got a good prescription, and he was very happy. He knew that the Ding and Su families would get to know each other next, so he said that he heard that there was a greenhouse in Ding's house with many flowers and plants planted in it. I also like to plant some flowers and plants. I wonder if I can take a look? Doctor Ding naturally agreed and called a servant to lead Shi Qingyan.

As soon as Shi Qingyan left, Su Qixuan cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Ding, you must have known about my father and son's arrival today. Let's open the skylight and speak openly." Dr. Ding didn't expect Su Qixuan to speak so directly, and he couldn't help but sigh, it's really Like father, like daughter. Thinking about Su Qing's straightforward way of speaking, it's not surprising to see Su Qixuan like this. Then he nodded, "Xiang'er did tell me that the Su family intends to get married with my Ding family, but I still have to ask Mr. Su and Mr. Su. Xiang'er has been engaged before and has a reputation as a husband in the capital. Su Do you really mind?" Su Qixuan didn't say anything this time. Su Rui stood up, raised his hands to Doctor Ding and said, "Our whole family feels that this matter is not Miss Ding's fault. There are too many unexpected things in the world. Only narrow-minded people Only people would blame everything on a weak woman. Miss Ding is really pitiful when she is innocent." After hearing this, Dr. Ding was moved and said, "It's rare that your family is all sensible people." Su Rui continued, " I have been in contact with Miss Ding several times. Miss Ding is knowledgeable, courteous, gentle and generous. It is said that a gentle lady and a gentleman are fond of each other, and I am no exception. If Dr. Ding agrees to betroth Lilac to me, I will treat her well all my life and treat her well. I promise I will never take concubines." Any man in this era who has some money will definitely have three wives and four concubines at home, not to mention a family like the Su family where two generations have been officials. Therefore, when Dr. Ding heard Su Rui say that he would never take concubines, his heart He was even more moved. After his first wife died, he was afraid that Ding Xiang would be wronged if they renewed their relationship, so he never married again. Seeing that Su Qixuan, who was about the same age as him, also had only one official wife, he was even more convinced by Su Rui's words. . He smiled and nodded and said, "It's my daughter's blessing that Mr. Su has such a heart. In fact, Xiang'er told me that she and your sister are good friends. They often visit Su's house and have dinner with Mrs. Su and Mr. Su several times. , Xiang'er said that your family has a cheerful personality and is easy to get along with. I feel more at ease when I hand Lilac over to you." Then he looked at Su Qixuan and said, "I agree to this marriage!"

When Su Qixuan heard this, he laughed, stood up and cupped his hands to Dr. Ding and said, "Don't worry, Dr. Ding, my wife has a carefree personality. She has never had the intrigues of those housewife ladies. She also likes lilac. In the future, Dr. Ding will not have to worry about her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law." Now that's the question of peace, I, Su Qixuan, assure you that when Ding Xiang is married, there will be absolutely no such thing as making arrangements for the morning and dusk, or trying to tease her daughter-in-law to establish rules!" Then Su Qixuan approached Doctor Ding again and whispered, "My daughter said that women give birth to children too early. It’s not good for your health. You have to wait until you are twenty when your body is mature. Giving birth at this time is good for both the mother and the child. Is that so, Dr. Ding?” Dr. Ding was stunned. “Miss Su actually knows this? No. I kept it secret from Mr. Su, but as Miss Su said, a woman’s bones and organs don’t mature until she is twenty years old. If she gets pregnant and gives birth to a baby too early, the infant and maternal mortality rate will be very high.” Su Qixuan understood, and said, “Then I plan to Wait until spring comes after the new year to come to Ding's house to propose marriage, and wait until next fall to get married. In this case, even if Ding Xiang gets pregnant in the second month after getting married, she will have to wait until Ding Xiang is twenty the year after next to give birth. I don't know what Mrs. Ding's medical advice is. ?”
