Copper Coins

Jiang Shining looked at the closed door, stood blankly for a moment, and then suddenly realized.

For a moment, the expression on his face was rather complicated, it could not be said that he was more regretful, or he could not tell whether he could laugh or cry more.

Xue Xian glanced at him, noticed his expression, pointed at him and said to Shi Shi: "Old man, were you afraid of ghosts before? Have you ever seen such a foolish ghost, are you still afraid? Think about how you were trembling before." Doesn't it look a little embarrassing?"

old man...

Shitou Zhang turned his head and wiped his face silently, thinking in his heart: I just grow up a little faster, I am not young, but I can carry, carry, walk and run, is it too old to be called an old man?

But this is the ancestor who can't afford to mess with him.

As soon as Jiang Shining's melancholy came to the fore, he was suppressed by the ancestor's gentle and clever words.He gave Xue Xian an annoyed look: "I'm probably close to Mo Zhehei, and it's easy to be stupid after staying with you for a long time."

He stood aside with his robe in his hand, and made a gesture of invitation towards the door: "I'm still not haunted by the blue sky and broad daylight, so one of you can call the door."

Everyone looked at Shishizhang in unison.

"I...me?" Shizhang pointed to his nose with an uncertain face. After all, the ups and downs along the way were not something he could handle, and this was the first time he needed to come forward.

Xue Xian pointed at Lu Nianqi solemnly: "Fortune teller."

Pointing to himself again: "Crippled."

Pointing to Xuan Min again: "A beggar."

After saying that, he spread his hands: "Is there an ordinary person?"

There is only such a person in the whole team, which is really horrible.

Shi Shizhang had no choice but to go forward without saying a word, and knocked on the door again.

There was another scream in the yard, and the girl seemed to be more frightened just now.

Shitou Zhang turned his head innocently: "I was bitten by a snake once and afraid of well ropes for ten years, don't blame me."

"Little girl, open the door, it's not haunted—" Shitou Zhang lowered his voice and confessed, "I'm a good person."

Everyone: "..."

Xue Xian stared at his back expressionlessly for a long while, then stretched out his hand to bring him back unbearably: "Don't summon the soul, you are the only one who can summon Zhong Kui."

"Xingzi, what are you shouting about? Don't startle the guests in the front hall." An old woman's voice sounded in the courtyard.

The voice of the girl in the courtyard could be faintly heard, and she almost cried in fright: "Sister-in-law Chen, it's haunted!"

"Nonsense, how can a well-behaved ghost be haunted?" The Chen sister-in-law replied, dumbfounded, "Our medicine hall only saves people, not harms them. What kind of ghosts are there?"

"Really, I saw Young Master Jiang just now, standing outside the door." Xingzi replied.

"Master Jiang...?" Aunt Chen was taken aback, "You don't mean..."

"Yes!" Xingzi said, "I just, I heard the knock on the door just now, and he stood there as soon as the door opened, smiled at me, and opened his mouth to call my name. Can you admit it?!"

The girl's voice sounded like she was about to cry, obviously she couldn't be frightened anymore.

"Knock on the door?"

"Yes, I just knocked for a while, but I didn't dare to listen carefully..."

Hearing this, Xue Xian knocked on the door just right.

Tuk Tuk Tuk…

Everyone inside the door cried in fright.

Xuan Min took back his paw quite wordlessly.

Jiang Shining: "..."

Finally, after a long time, the door was finally knocked open.The person who opened the door was an old man with gray hair and a meek and respectful face.

Behind the old man were two shrinking people, one was Xingzi who had scared away earlier, and the other was a small old woman who must be Mrs. Chen.

In order not to scare people any more, Jiang Shining had already changed back to his cardboard appearance in time, and got into Xue Xian's pocket for the time being, but couldn't help poking his head out a little bit, watching the development of the situation quietly, after all, he was the one who poked the basket out.

"Uncle Chen..." He muttered in a low voice when he saw the gray-haired old man.

He knew all the people in Fang's drugstore, some of them were even considered familiar.Because the Fang family and the Jiang family had some contacts many years ago. One family has been a doctor for generations, and the other family has been in the medicinal material business for generations. They have been in contact since they met by chance.

Jiang Shining came to Fang's house as a guest when he was a child, and later his sister simply married into Fang's house.

When he was a child, Uncle Chen's sister-in-law made sugar buns for him to eat.

Goodbye old friends, it's already a yin and yang separation, and it's even hard to call the old name again face to face.

Uncle Chen's ears were no longer what they used to be, and he was slightly receding, and he never heard Jiang Shining's whispers.

He squinted his cloudy eyes, looked around at the "demons and ghosts" in front of the door, and couldn't help but ask, "Excuse me, everyone...what's the matter?"

Aunt Chen winked at Xingzi from behind: "Didn't you say you saw Young Master Jiang? Where is it? Aren't they all good-natured people?"

She whispered in a breathy voice.

Kyoko shook her head blankly, indicating that she didn't understand what was going on.

It was still Shitou Zhang who was pushed out by everyone to take the lead in explaining.

"Excuse me." Shitou Zhang was indeed a person who often dealt with some old men. Although he was always very cowardly when facing Xue Xian and the others, he was still very particular about the etiquette he should have when facing ordinary people.

He cupped his hands and said, "We came from Ningyang, Huizhou, looking for—"

He suddenly got stuck, turned his face and winked at Xue Xian and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Before Xue Xian could reply, Mrs. Chen interjected subconsciously, "Come to see...Young Madam?"

Jiang Shining whispered, "Yes."

"Yes!" Shi Zhang nodded.

"Sure enough!" Xingzi blurted out, "I said it was no such a coincidence. I just met Young Master Jiang, and Ning Yang came here! Is it possible that I am blind? Then... that... Master Jiang ..."

Uncle Chen hissed her, then turned his head and cupped his hands at Shitou Zhang: "Master, may I ask, do you have any tokens?"

Shitou Zhang turned his head in a daze again, and asked silently with an exaggerated mouth shape: "Where's the letter-thing-?"

Just as Xue Xian was about to say no, he suddenly remembered something and slapped his hands: "That's right!"

As he spoke, he put his hand into Xuan Min's pocket with a blank face.

"..." Xuan Min pressed the hand that was twitching in his dark pocket, "What are you looking for—"

"I touched it." Xue Xian moved his wrist, "let go."

Xuan Min let go of his hand, and Xue Xian retracted the monster's paw, holding the silver medical bell between his fingers.

When Jiang Shining was inconvenient to take it, he stuffed it into Xuan Min's secret pocket, and now he took it out, as if it was his own pocket.

"Can this medical bell be regarded as a keepsake?" Xue Xian asked lazily as he handed the medical bell forward.

He had been sitting on the stone sculpture by the door, half blocked by the stone Zhang, and when he made a sound, Mrs. Chen and the others cast their gazes over.

Xingzi stared at him and scanned him up and down, blushed suddenly, and shyly hid behind Uncle Chen.

Uncle Chen took a look at the silver medical bell and said, "I've seen it before. Doctor Jiang always carried this in the past."

He saw the word "Jiang" engraved on the side of the medical bell, and returned it to Xue Xian.

But the Jiang family didn't die after all, the whole family died of drowning, but now a stranger who had never met suddenly came to the door with the things of the Jiang family, it was quite normal to have doubts.

"A few are from the Jiang family..." Lao Chen was still a little worried.

"Near neighbors." Unable to mention distant relatives, Shitou Zhang had no choice but to say another one, "Entrusted by Jiang Shining, the young son of the Jiang family, to give the medical bell passed down from generation to generation to his elder sister, and there are some other things about his parents." For unfinished business, we need to discuss with his elder sister."

"No wonder..." Xingzi suddenly said, "But the young lady is not here at the moment, why don't you come in to the courtyard and have some tea?"

Her attitude was completely different from the previous one who was terrified to death, which made Uncle Chen and Sister-in-law Chen stunned for a while.

Ganqing, isn't this the time for you to scream in fright?

But the girl didn't notice Mrs. Chen's eyes at all, her eyes still quietly stayed on Xue Xian.

"I'm sorry." Shitou Zhang responded in a slightly unceremonious manner.After all, this road is both in the sky and in the water. To have a stool to sit on and have a mouthful of hot tea is simply wishful thinking.

Now that Xingzi had already spoken and Shitou Zhang had answered, even though Uncle Chen still had some doubts in his heart, he had no choice but to welcome a few people into the door.

Uncle Chen and Sister-in-Law led the way, and Xingzi waited for a while pressing the door——

Shitou Zhang entered the door, and Lu Nianqi also crossed the threshold, but his movements were a little groping, and he was noticed by Uncle Chen who turned around.

"This young master..." Uncle Chen hesitated.

"Half-blind." Lu Nianqi answered coldly.

Uncle Chen: "..."

Xingzi deliberately landed behind Lu Nianqi, intending to lead the way for Xue Xian who was still sitting on the stone sculpture.

As a result, as soon as she raised her head, she watched Xuan Min hug Xue Xian up.

Xingzi: "..."

When Uncle Chen turned around and saw the blinding scene again, he couldn't help but asked again: "This young master..."

"Half paralyzed," Xue Xian replied without hesitation.

Uncle Chen: "..." What kind of group of people is this...

One half-paralyzed, one half-blind, a pudgy middle-aged man, and a monk who doesn't pay attention to others...

No matter how you look at it, it can't be a threat to people.

Uncle Chen simply let go of his doubts and greeted him sincerely.

"When will your young lady come back?" Seeing that Xingzi was always blushing, Xue Xian thought that this girl was quite interesting, and he was not cautious or defensive, so he asked her.

When this villain is not acting like a demon, he can coax people with his appearance. When he speaks, he speaks in a decent and polite manner, but his tone is a little lazy, mixed with a sense of carelessness.

When Xingzi was asked by him, her face became even redder, and she said softly, "The young lady went to check the pulse of Mr. Zhao's wife, and the young master accompanied him. She left before the fifth watch, and she should be back in an hour at most. "

"Pulse diagnosis?"

"Our young lady is amazing!" Xingzi said, "All the ladies in the county are not feeling well, so they all come to invite young lady, the diagnosis is accurate, and the medicine will cure the disease. It's just a bit hard..."

Worthy of being a doctor.

While everyone sighed in their hearts, they couldn't help feeling a little worried. After all, it was rumored that Qingping County was plagued by epidemics. Doctors were probably the most likely to be infected...

They waited in a living room in the back while drinking tea. They thought they would have to wait for a long time, but before they could make a cup of tea, a boy about ten years old stumbled in and yelled as soon as he entered the courtyard. He said: "It's not good, it's not good! Something happened to the young master and the young lady!"
