Chapter 20 The Wife Next Door

After Lu Yiqing and Shen Wangshu got up, they went to the main courtyard to see Patriarch Lu, and told Doctor Fang how to eat maggots.As far as Lu Yiqing herself is concerned, she always feels that this method is more unreliable than suturing, and it is only her thought of it in a flash.

As a result, Dr. Fang's eyes lit up when he heard it. He completely ignored how weird and disgusting this method was, and thought he could give it a try: "The old man has vaguely seen similar records in medical books before, but he has never tried it."

Obviously, Doctor Fang wanted to try it this time.

In fact, the methods of Chinese medicine are not as conservative as Lu Yiqing imagined. In the long history of medical development, doctors have tried countless methods.They dare to use and eat anything.If Lu Yiqing is interested in learning about all the Chinese herbal medicines, I guarantee that her face will turn pale when she sees Chinese medicines in the future, and she will not dare to touch the medicinal soup lightly if she doesn't understand every herbal medicine.

Fortunately, Lu Yiqing didn't know about this, she was speechless when she saw Dr. Fang eager to try, and after thinking about it, she only reminded: "Doctor Fang, Dad's injury is not serious, you can try it, but then Maggots at least have some clean ones ready."

Doctor Fang immediately waved his hands when he heard the words: "I know, I know, don't worry, sir."

Lu Yiqing knew about germs and viruses, and Dr. Fang also knew about filth and evil. After all, it was impossible to use them just for the sake of trying.Besides, the field of medicine is beyond Lu Yiqing's competence, so she didn't say anything more, she just hoped that Dr. Fang would be reliable enough to find a way to cure her relatives cheaply from her few words. Dad's way.

In the next few days, Doctor Fang kept making preparations for this, and several famous doctors from Chang'an, whom Shen Wangshu placed high hopes on, also invited several doctors over.It's a pity that seeing Patriarch Lu's appearance, most of them shook their heads and couldn't be cured, and some of them could only be treated with acupuncture and medicine to stabilize the condition.

It’s not necessarily that those famous doctors are not good at medical skills, but they have long been famous and don’t want to bear the infamy of killing people, so they dare not try boldly—don’t talk about maggots eating rot and suturing wounds, which sounds weird They didn't even dare to mention the most basic method of gouging out flesh and debridement.Basically, it is conservative treatment, and it is resigned to fate if it is not cured well.

Shen Wangshu was very anxious about this, and in the end, he had no choice but to put his hope back on Doctor Fang.

****************************************************************************

Busy and busy, three days passed in a blink of an eye.

Patriarch Lu's injury has not worsened in the past few days, and Doctor Fang has already made a lot of preparations, but the time agreed on the note has arrived.Lu Yiqing had long planned to go to the appointment, and after discussing with Shen Wangshu, going to the appointment with one person became two people going together.

The agreed place was a teahouse called Mingxiangju, the same as last time.It's just that the name of this teahouse is elegant, but the location is a bit remote, and it is not well-known in Chang'an City.It was Shen Wangshu who asked someone to check it out, and only then did he know that there was indeed such a teahouse.

The two were much more careful when they went out this time, and brought a few guards with them, and followed the carriage along the way.

In the carriage, the two listened to the trampling of horseshoes outside, and then Shen Wangshu talked to Lu Yiqing about his plan: "Ah Qing, the other party is only asking you, I will go with you rashly, I am afraid that the other party will not show up, or I didn't want to say anything more when we met. So I won't be with you when I arrive at the teahouse, and I'll wait for you in the private room next door, okay?"

Lu Yiqing was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't refute Shen Wangshu's words, but frowned slightly: "The agreement is only for the teahouse, if you go to Dingya Room, how do you know it's next door?"

Shen Wangshu smiled, with a bit of cunning: "If you have money, it is natural to use the method of being rich."

The method is very simple, Shen Wangshu first checked the owner of the teahouse, and after confirming that the owner was okay, he basically booked all the private rooms in Mingxiangju.The only room left was reserved for the other party, and she naturally went to the left next door if she wanted to go to the left next door, and went to the right next door if she wanted to go to the right next door.Even with the arrangement in advance, it is easy to eavesdrop.

Lu Yiqing was a little speechless after hearing this, so he found fault and asked, "Aren't you afraid of scaring the snake, or the other party doesn't go to the private room at all?"

Shen Wangshu's expression was relaxed, but he was inexplicably sure: "No."

She didn't explain these two words too much, so that Lu Yiqing didn't know whether she said she would not scare the snake, or would not go to the private room.But Lu Yiqing thinks it should be the latter, since asking her out in such a secret way, it's not easy to talk about things in public.As for scaring the snake, Lu Yiqing was actually just talking. Since the other party asked her out again and again, there must be a reason why he must see her.

The two discussed briefly, and the carriage moved extremely fast, and they arrived at the gate of Mingxiangju before they knew it.Lu Yiqing was sent away and got out of the car directly, while Shen Wangshu cautiously followed the car to the side stables, and then entered the teahouse from another direction.

Lu Yiqing had two guards behind him, and as soon as he entered the teahouse, Xiaoer greeted him.

She glanced at the teahouse first, and saw that the hall was full of tea customers, and there were people playing piano music on the high platform, it looked like an ordinary place.Then he said to Xiaoer: "I have an appointment here to meet someone, I wonder if someone can greet me in advance?"

Hearing the words, Xiao Er quickly scanned her up and down, and then said with a smile: "Is the honored guest's surname Lu?"

Sure enough, Lu Yiqing thought, nodded reservedly, and asked again: "Did that person come first?"

Xiaoer shook his head when he heard this, and smiled apologetically, "Your lord will arrive first. But the private room has already been reserved, and your lord can follow the villain first."

While talking, Xiao Er led Lu Yiqing to the private room on the second floor.The reserved private room is in an excellent location. Sitting by the window, you can have a panoramic view of the scene in the lobby. The other side is facing the water, and the view from the window is unique.

Near the door, Lu Yiqing glanced left and right, wondering where Shen Wangshu would wait for her in a while?

The thought flashed by, Lu Yiqing had already opened the door and entered the private room.The two guards behind were supposed to be guarding the door, but after thinking about it, Lu Yiqing sent them away—for safety's sake, she didn't send them too far, and went to the next door to guard.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Er opened his mouth, and the guard stuffed a piece of silver in his hand, and he obediently shut up and backed away.

Lu Yiqing didn't pay attention to these things, and after entering the door, he took a good look at the quaint teahouse.In fact, the things in the private room are also very simple, just tables, chairs and tea sets, but they are quite elegantly arranged, which makes people feel comfortable.

When Lu Yiqing looked around the private room and came to sit down at the table, he heard the faint sound of the door opening from the next door.She listened attentively and confirmed that Shen Wangshu had entered the private room on the left, and felt much more at ease for some reason.

After waiting for a while, Xiao Er brought new tea, and after receiving the tip, he kindly poured tea for Lu Yiqing before leaving.

Lu Yiqing looked at the clear tea in front of her and didn't touch it, she just waited for the appointed person to come - she actually stepped on the spot, she thought that the other party would arrive first, that's why Shen Wangshu avoided walking with her.As a result, not only did the other party not arrive first, but she waited in the private room for no one to come. She waited until the tea was cold, and she almost thought that this time the other party would break the appointment.

From the time when the tea was hot until the tea was cold, Lu Yiqing's enthusiasm gradually cooled down along with the tea, and he didn't even bother to guess who it was that asked her out.Bored, she rested her chin and looked at the wall, wondering what Shen Wangshu was doing next door.

After thinking about it, she suddenly got up and walked to the left wall, curled her fingers and tapped on the wall.

The sound of "dong" was not light or heavy, but the sound insulation in this private room was really average, and it should be heard from the opposite side.

Lu Yiqing waited for a while, but did not get a response, so she pursed her lips and knocked again.Then one after another, the tapping position gradually moved towards the window following her footsteps.After the last knock, Lu Yiqing was already standing at the window by the water.She leaned her head out of the window to look at the next door, and as expected, she met Shen Wangshu who also leaned out of the window, but her face was full of helplessness.

Sure enough, Shen Wangshu would not ignore her, and Lu Yiqing felt sweetened for no reason.She unconsciously raised her eyebrows and smiled happily, but said something complaining on her mouth: "I don't know who invited me. It's too late for me to be here for so long."

Seeing that she was still childish, Shen Wangshu felt helpless: "Wait a while, people will come, don't worry."

Lu Yiqing was originally impatient, but when she saw Shen Wangshu, she didn't feel it anymore, she leaned on the window pitifully: "I'm not in a hurry, but waiting for someone is so boring, Wangshu, can you talk to me?"

Shen Wangshu always has nothing to do with her, especially not seeing her pitiful appearance.Even knowing that the other party made such a gesture on purpose, she still couldn't help but soften her heart, so she couldn't bear to refuse after all.

The two started talking, so they simply talked by the window.There is no need to be afraid that someone will see this scene, the small lake behind the remote tea house is even more secluded, let alone a pleasure boat, there is not even a pedestrian by the lakeside.

With someone to talk with, Lu Yiqing finally didn't feel that the time was running out, so she stuck to Shen Wangshu and refused to let her go back.I don't know how long it has passed like this, Lu Yiqing suddenly heard that there seemed to be a movement in the door behind him, he quickly straightened up and said: "It seems to be here."

After the words were finished, the door behind him was pushed open, and Lu Yiqing adjusted his posture calmly, as if he had been watching the scenery by the window.

She didn't turn her head until the door behind her was closed again, and then she was stunned when she saw the person coming - for Lu Yiqing who had just arrived and hadn't been out much, the person who came was considered an acquaintance.

After closing the door, the woman turned around in brocade clothes. She was bright and eye-catching. Looking closely, her appearance was somewhat similar to Shen Wangshu. Who else could it be if it wasn't the only one-sided Princess Xiang? ! ,
