I pretend to be a fairy in ancient times

Coming out of Jingguo Mansion, Zhao Ji saw that it was still early, so he asked the man driving the carriage to go back to Dong'an Street first. After dismissing the man, he bought some cooked meat on the main street before walking back to Xia's house.

Zhao Ji had already paid a day's rent in the morning, and the man had already taken some time to eat when he was waiting for him outside the Duke Yasukuni's mansion with his dry food.

Now Zhao Ji asked the clerk to go back to the store to wait, and call him when he went out in the afternoon. The clerk rushing to the market was naturally happy. In this summer, hiding in the house and taking a nap is better than running outside without drinking water.

When Zhao Ji returned to Xia's house, the servants were eating in the kitchen, and the master's family had already finished their lunch.Mrs. Zhou was still embroidering with her daughter, and the two sons of the Xia family and Mrs. Xiao went to take a nap.

Because of the hot weather, she was drowsy, and Xia Lian'er was listless in her embroidery.

When Lady Zhou saw Zhao Ji coming back, she hurriedly asked Mama Liu to cook for him again.Zhao Ji took out the cooked meat he just bought and stopped him, "Don't bother, I bought some cooked meat myself, just because I didn't make it in time for the meal."

Mrs. Zhou smiled and said, "You child, you are too polite. There are so many things to worry about between our relatives." Having said that, Mrs. Zhou also likes Zhao Ji for being so sensible.

While talking, Mama Liu had already helped Zhao Ji put the meat on a plate. Zhao Ji sat down casually at the dining table in the kitchen, and said to Mrs. Zhou while serving himself a meal, "I'm being polite, this is not licking meat. Have you come back with a straight face? If you follow the rules, you should eat outside."

Zhao Ji asked Mother Liu to put the meat on the table, and asked the four servants of the Xia family to eat it together.

Mrs. Zhou smiled and said nothing more.Xia Lian'er is the most lively age of the little girl, she originally came out with Mrs. Zhou to rest her eyes.In the past few days, the relationship between the relatives has deepened, and they also joked with them, "Why, my cousin doesn't eat the delicacies from the Duke's mansion, but prefers to come back to eat our family's simple food."

In the past, when Xia Hong went out to see a doctor, people always kept meals. If the banquet was good, he would sometimes eat at the patient's home.

Xia Lian'er also thought that Zhao Ji had a thin skin and was too embarrassed to eat at the Jingguo mansion, so she ran back to eat.

Zhao Ji just smiled embarrassingly, and did not tell Mrs. Zhou and the others the real situation.In modern society, there may not be much involvement between doctors and patients, but in this era, the Tao family's approach is too unkind.

Although he received two ginseng gifts from the Tao family, Zhao Ji still didn't like them very much. He thought that he should avoid dealing with this family in the future.

Don't think about those irrelevant things now, the most important thing is to eat, after a whole morning of tossing, Zhao Ji is already hungry.

Zhao Ji started to eat, and Mrs. Zhou, mother and daughter went back to the main room.

At first, the servants of the Xia family were too embarrassed to pick up the meat he bought, but after Zhao Ji said it again, "You're welcome, I can't finish it anyway." Seeing Zhao Ji's sincerity, Old Zheng took the lead to pick up the meat and ate it. Others eat meat.

After eating the meat he bought, the servants of the Xia family were flattering Zhao Ji, just after he finished eating, the maid Cui Zhu brought a basin of cold water for him to wipe his face.

Zhao Ji was not polite either. He washed his face with cold water and wiped his neck and hands, feeling somewhat refreshed.

He has been in this world for so long, and he also understands the basic situation here.There is no large-scale farming in this era. If the weather is good, there will be no shortage of food, but the price of meat is relatively more expensive than in modern society.The masters of the Xia family can still eat meat every day, and it is rare for a servant to have the opportunity to eat meat once a month.

So Zhao Ji invited the servants to eat a meal of meat, which was enough to buy people's hearts.

Pushing open the door of the guest room, Jiang Heshan fell asleep lying on the table, and Jiang Fuzi fell asleep, but Zhao Ji saw the patient's appearance and did not sleep very well. He tested it with a digital thermometer and found that he was a little feverish.

Although Mrs. Jiang enjoyed the treatment in the sterile operating room and was given anti-inflammatory drugs, the temperature was too hot, which still affected Mrs. Jiang's wound.The Xia family couldn't possibly be as extravagant as the palace, even the three experimenters used ice basins.

After Zhao Ji gave Mrs. Jiang another anti-inflammatory injection, he went out and asked Huang Qi to bring two buckets of water and splash them on the walls around the guest room.

This is the only way to cool down the house now.

The Xia family's house is made of green brick walls glued together with rice paste, so splashing a little water won't cause any problems. Unfortunately, the Xia family doesn't have a well, so all the water is bought.

Fearing that the water would not be enough, he went to tell Mrs. Zhou to buy more water tomorrow.If the situation is good, Master Jiang will be able to walk around the ground the day after tomorrow, and then he will send them back to his home.

After such a toss, Mrs. Xiao and the others woke up, but Jiang Heshan didn't move at all. He guarded Mrs. Jiang last night, and now he was relaxed. Even if he just lay on the table, he slept very deeply.

When Mrs. Xiao and the others got up, Zhao Ji asked them how the house looked.Mrs. Xia said, "There is a house in Lin Lane, with two yards. It is spacious to live in. There is a well in the back yard, but the price is a bit expensive. It costs 600 taels of silver and refuses to let go. There is another house in the opposite alley. , it’s far away from here, we haven’t seen it yet.”

Zhao Ji said, "Then let's go and have a look in the afternoon."

After talking about the business and a few gossips, Mrs. Zhou said to Cui Zhu, "Go and get out the flower cards, we will play cards with my aunt."

Mrs. Zhou asked Zhao Ji if he wanted to play together. Yuan Shen had played this kind of flower cards in his memory, but Zhao Ji didn't really want to play cards.

After being rejected, Mrs. Zhou was not annoyed, she just said, "You young people don't want to play with our old woman, so forget it and don't force you."

He asked Cuizhu to bring out some snacks, and then the game of cards began. The participants included Mrs. Zhou, mother and daughter, Mrs. Xia and Mrs. Xiao.They all took money out for gambling, but the bets were small, and they would lose a lot of money.

After playing a few games, the atmosphere became lively. The few women seldom relax like this.Even Mrs. Xiao, who had been silent for the past two days, laughed heartily after winning a hand of cards.

From this point of view, buying a house near Xia's house is indeed a good choice, so that a few women can get together to play at any time, and it can also pass many lonely times in life.Women in this era are particularly difficult, Zhao Ji hoped that his grandma and mother could relax a bit.

The women were having fun, so they ignored Zhao Ji, and he took a book to the concierge to read.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was not so fierce, he changed into a new moon-white dress, and planned to visit the national teacher.

Unexpectedly, before Zhao Ji went out, a large carriage stopped in front of Xia's house. The driver was the personal guard of the National Teacher. The National Teacher sent him to pick up Zhao Ji, saying that he had something to discuss.

The personal guard also handed over the name card of the national teacher, it seems that there is no fake.Zhao Ji accepted Yan Yun's name card, and thought to himself, just when he planned to see the national teacher, he sent someone to pick him up.

Daydreaming again.

Quickly clearing away the thoughts that shouldn't be in his mind, Zhao Ji stepped into the carriage with the gift he had prepared.

It was a real big wagon, with big wheels and shock absorbers, and it felt smoother to sit in than any wagon I'd ever ridden in.Moreover, the horses that pull the carts are not ordinary poor horses, but fine horses that can go to the battlefield.Sitting in the car, Zhao Ji felt like he was riding in a luxury car of this era.

The residence of the National Teacher is not far from the Yasukuni Mansion, and it takes about half an hour to drive there by carriage from Dong'an Street.

The regulations of the National Teacher's Mansion are much more luxurious than the Jingguo Mansion, and there are many more people waiting to be interviewed at the gate, but the carriage that Zhao Ji was riding in did not stop at the gate, and directly entered the gate of the mansion.

A man dressed as a housekeeper received Zhao Ji. He did not take Zhao Ji to the living room, but took him into Yan Yunkai's study.

What Zhao Ji didn't expect was that Yan Yunkai would receive him in his study.

The study opened by Yan Yun was as extravagant as in the imperial palace, with two ice basins. As soon as Zhao Ji walked in, he wondered if he could stay a little longer, and he didn't want to leave.

Yan Yunkai was very busy and had been correcting official documents. When he saw Zhao Ji entering the door, he still took the time to smile at him and said, "You sit down first, and I will talk to you later."

Just wait, it is clear that Yan Yunkai is a powerful figure on a par with Queen Mother Dong, but when Zhao Ji faces him, he can't bring up his nervous emotions, and always feels that Yan Yunkai will not harm him.

Sometimes, Zhao Ji really wanted to cast aside himself, thinking that he shouldn't be fooled by Yan Yunkai's beauty.

Today, the national teacher passed on the clothes that already have cloud patterns on the white background. He wore dark clothes when we met a few times before. This is the first time Zhao Ji saw him wearing light colors. The sharpness has weakened, but it has added elegance. The air is still damn charming.

After waiting in the quiet study for more than ten minutes, Zhao Ji didn't feel bored at all, because he felt that the time passed too fast because he was enjoying the picturesque scene.

Until the beauty raised her head and said in his nice voice, "Sorry for keeping you waiting." Then she opened the drawer under the desk, took out a few pieces of paper and handed them to Zhao Ji, saying, "This is from me, look Let's see."

At this time, Zhao Ji woke up as if possessed by a spirit, and took the paper pages given to him by the national teacher. The top one was the contract, and the next five were silver notes, each with 1000 taels written on it.

If you get rich, you can buy as many houses in the capital as you want, and you can buy luxury carriages as you like. This money is five times more than the bounty for curing the emperor.

As for the reason why Yan Yun gave him the money, the contract stated that it was a prescription for buying alcohol, and he would be given [-]% of the alcohol interest every year.Yan Yunkai said, "Currently alcohol is only used in the army, and the imperial court will allocate funds to buy it, and I will share [-]% of the profits with you."

What is this, do you produce and buy yourself? I didn't expect you to be such a national teacher.

Seeing Zhao Ji's slightly disgusted gaze, Yan Yunkai was amused, and explained helplessly, "I didn't take advantage of my power. Since alcohol is a medicinal material for the soldiers, of course the imperial court has to pay for it. I don't want to turn the army into my own. private property."

Indeed, if the court is not allowed to pay for it, is it a free offering?Moreover, the alcohol business was discovered by Yan Yunkai, so it is understandable that he wants to use it to make money.

It's just that the benefits given to him by the national teacher are too much, Zhao Ji feels a little uneasy, "I didn't create Fang Zi, so I deserve so much money."

Yan Yun said with a smile, "You don't have to be embarrassed, the emperor's illness is cured, and the extra part is my personal reward for you."

Master Guoshi is not only good-looking, but also kind-hearted, Zhao Ji thought to himself, and decisively put the banknote into his arms.

The author has something to say:

Today, Zhao Ji not only entered the hall, but was also taken care of by the Master of the State Teacher.
