Ancient Buddhist Life

Chapter 20 First Meeting

After a good night's sleep, Hu Ziyi, who was still dreaming sweet dreams, was awakened by the sound of "bang bang bang" knocking on the door.

"Brother, get up."

"Zixin, it's still early, let the eldest brother sleep for a while." The attentive Zitong said in a low voice.

"Okay, third brother, then I'll call big brother again later."

"So cute." Zitong took his hand and left lightly.

Hu Ziyi, who was a little angry at getting up, sat up slowly after hearing the conversation between the two brothers outside the door, got dressed, opened the door and saw that it was pitch black outside, and there were stars hanging in the sky.

After finally mustering up the courage, I immediately flinched a little, as if I went back to sleep, and the feeling of not being able to sleep until I woke up naturally was really too painful.

However, just when Hu Ziyi had the idea of ​​going back to sleep, before he had time to take action, the sharp-eyed Zi Xin saw him.

"Brother, you're finally up, hurry up and have breakfast, and we'll go to town early after we're done." Zi Xin, who was in a high mood, ran over to grab his brother and walked to the kitchen.

"Slow down, it's still early! Besides, brother hasn't washed yet, you go eat first, brother will be fine soon."

"Then brother, hurry up." Zi Xin, whose heart was already flying to the town, kept telling his elder brother.

"Understood." Flicking the broken hair on his forehead, Hu Ziyi strode away to take a shower.

In the kitchen, Zi Xin was eating breakfast absent-mindedly, and kept looking out the door while eating. He didn't feel happy until he saw his eldest brother coming in from the door.

Zi Xin, who was in a good mood, saw his elder brother sitting down, and immediately jumped off the chair, holding a half-eaten egg in his hand, tiptoed to his elder brother's mouth, and let him eat it.

After opening his mouth and eating the egg in one bite, Hu Ziyi said: "Zixin, do you want to compete with big brother who eats faster? If you win, big brother will buy candied haws for you to eat."

"Brother keeps his word." Zi Xin, who was full of fighting spirit, heard that there would be candied haws to eat after winning the game. He immediately buried his head in the mouth and ate it. While eating, he didn't forget to look up to see how much was left in his bowl.Seeing such an active younger brother, Hu Ziyi deliberately slowed down his eating speed, and it was obvious that Zixin won.

After simply eating and cleaning up, Hu Ziyi and his brothers and sisters, except for the youngest, Zixin, each carried a basket of herbs on their backs, and began to walk to the place where the bullock cart was sitting at the entrance of the village.

When he was about to reach the entrance of the village, he saw that Uncle Zhuang's bullock cart was already half full, so Hu Ziyi hurriedly took his younger brothers and sisters to a trot, fearing that it would be late and there would be no place to sit.

After all, in the memory of the original owner, it takes more than half an hour to ride an ox cart from the village to the town, let alone walk, at least an hour and a half, which is still fast.

But if the brothers and sisters are allowed to leave, they don't know if they will be able to get there in three hours. By then, they will have to walk to the town exhausted, and they will still be in the mood to hang out there.It's better to spend some copper coins, people are comfortable and save effort.

"Uncle Zhuang, there are six of us. This is 12 copper coins. Check it out." After sitting in the bullock cart, Hu Ziyi paid for the ride first.

"That's right, why is Zi Yi taking his younger brothers and sisters to town?" Uncle Zhuang asked in a chatty manner.

"I went up the mountain to pick some mountain goods yesterday, and I'm going to the town to see if I can sell them and make some money."

"Zi Yi is a successful man, and life will get better as time goes on." He patted him on the shoulder and comforted him.

"I accept your good words." Hu Ziyi said with a smile.

Gradually the car was full of people, and Uncle Zhuang began to concentrate on driving the car instead of talking.And some old ladies and daughter-in-laws in the car also started their daily compulsory lessons and gossiped with each other and heard some gossip from parents.

Hu Ziyi, who was bored, was drowsy while sitting on the bouncing bullock cart, when suddenly a sharp sound sounded, which made him wake up suddenly.

"Hey, isn't this Zi Yi from Hu Xiucai's family? I heard that you got 15 taels of silver when you split up the day before yesterday!" An old woman with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks and a mean face said loudly.

"I've also heard that 15 taels, but my family's income for several years!" A young daughter-in-law next to her envied.

"Don't be envious, the Hu family is rich, but none of his old lady and daughter-in-law are fuel-efficient."

"That's right, you didn't see how his youngest son, Zi Xin, was beaten up. The life of a rich man is not something ordinary people can bear!"

"Yes, that's miserable! It's heart-wrenching to see, I really don't know how they did it."

"There's nothing you can't do. The third child in his family didn't like them when they came here. Now that their husband and wife are dead, there are only a few children left. They can bully them as they like."

A group of people chattered about the Hu family's affairs, completely ignoring the person involved and sitting beside them.Even when they talked about rising, they would look at Hu Ziyi and his brothers and sisters with sympathy.

Hu Ziyi, who was looked at inexplicably, kept a cold face and said nothing. At this moment, he only hoped to hurry to the town and stay away from these eight women. It was too noisy.

However, these people saw that he didn't make a sound to stop him, but instead spoke more recklessly, and became less and less scrupled.

Hu Ziyi originally planned to turn a blind eye and listen but not hear.Na Cheng thought that the more they talked, the more ugly they sounded, not only talking about the Hu family, but also talking about their brothers and sisters, the more he listened, the more he became furious.

"Aunts, shouldn't you worry about other people's feelings, and stop talking about others' right and wrong. If you have time to gossip, it's better to do something useful and stop gossiping here." Hu Ziyi said indifferently.

The few people who were humiliated in public, not only did not stop, but blamed Hu Ziyi: "I don't know what is good or bad, we are not fighting for you, but you actually blamed us, you really deserve to be bullied by that old shrew Hu Liu "The more they talked, the more they felt that they were reasonable, and they even asked other people in the car to judge for them, which was right and which was wrong.

Hu Ziyi was really laughed at by these self-righteous people, what made them feel so good about themselves.

"Whether we are doing well or not, it seems that it has nothing to do with you. We don't need any sympathy or concern from you, just take care of yourself and stop talking nonsense. Don't blame me for being rude!" Hu Ziyi said with a completely sullen face and a cold tone.

"You..." The few people who were not convinced still wanted to continue pointing fingers.

But seeing Hu Ziyi sneering at the corner of his mouth and looking at them coldly, several of them could not help but shudder. This Hu family boy seemed to be cruel, and his strong desire to survive made them choose to keep silent.

For a while, except for the bumping sound of the bullock cart, there was no sound.

Fortunately, this oppressive atmosphere didn't last long, and soon the ox cart arrived at the gate of the town.Because no vehicles are allowed to enter the town, Uncle Zhuang can only store the carts at the storage place at the gate of the city.When we went back in the afternoon, we also gathered at the gate of the city and drove home together.

After setting the time to go home, Hu Ziyi and his younger brothers and sisters started queuing up to enter the city. Because everyone is relatively free recently, there are more people going to the town to buy things, so they queued for a long time before entering the town.

Looking at the streets with people coming and going, Hu Ziyi had the illusion that he was in the present world, and his expression was in a daze.But with the continuous high and low shouting, he slowly woke up from the trance.

"You guys wait here obediently, and elder brother asks someone how to get to the clinic." Hu Ziyi told Zixuan to watch out for his younger brothers and sisters, don't let them run around, lest they be photographed by Huazi.After all, there have been many incidents of children being abducted and trafficked in this world, and Hu Ziyi is very worried about their safety.

"Understood, big brother, I will be optimistic about them." Zixuan assured, patted his chest.

After explaining to them, Hu Ziyi quickly went to find someone to understand the general situation of the town, and combined with the memory of the original owner, he knew that there were two medical clinics in the town, one was mainly engaged in the business of the rich, and the other It mainly treats the poor, and occasionally they will hold some free clinics to treat people for free.

Judging from the praise of the medical center, Hu Ziyi chose the Yangsheng Hall, which often has free clinics. After all, everyone praises it unanimously. Presumably they will not look down on people, and they will give herbal medicines a fair price.

After deciding to go to the Yangshengtang, Hu Ziyi took his younger siblings and walked there slowly. Before he reached the entrance of the medical clinic, he saw a long queue outside the medical clinic, which was still growing continuously.

However, most of the queues to see a doctor were all beautifully dressed young women. Hu Ziyi really didn't understand why everyone was dressed as if they were going on a blind date when seeing a doctor.

Hu Ziyi's doubts were answered when he approached the clinic. It turned out that these women did not really come to see a doctor, but to see someone.

"Achun, would you like a little genius doctor like me?" the woman in a yellow dress asked her companion shyly.

"Bauhinia, you are so beautiful, the little genius doctor Hua will definitely look at you differently." The woman in the blue half skirt agreed.

"It's just your mouth."

Conversations like this kept happening around Hu Ziyi, and he was also aroused by everyone's curiosity, what kind of person is it that makes so many people like him.

Because most of the people queuing up were healthy, it was soon Hu Ziyi's turn to see a doctor, and there was a handsome young man sitting in the medical hall.

He has a pair of black pupils that are as clear and dazzling as obsidian, shining with awe-inspiring heroism, matched with a handsome face that is upright and strong, with a deep outline like a carving, it is even more imposing, reminiscent of someone with a Aggressive tiger, full of danger.

Looking at the face of Hua Xiao Miracle Doctor who was even more handsome than the stars of his previous life, Hu Ziyi couldn't help sighing in his heart: No wonder so many women like him, but I don't know if his level is really worthy of the name.

Huaying could tell at a glance that Hu Ziyi had doubts about his medical skills, but he was not angry. After all, because of his face, he had been questioned countless times, so there was no need to be too entangled.

"Brother, just sit down when you see a doctor, don't worry about the trouble, and give way, there are still many people who need to see a doctor waiting in line." Hua Ying said with a cold expression.

"Look, look." Hu Ziyi hugged Zixin and sat on a chair, allowing Huaying to diagnose and treat her.
