dressed as a scholar

Fang Yu found a few thick logs and a strong hemp rope. He saw the wood in the garden for a while, and then tightened the hemp rope for a while. The weather was getting cooler in October, so he planned to make a swing in the garden. It will come in handy when Qingyan grows up and can walk.

When I worked in the Ministry of Industry, although I was a little tired, my hands-on ability has indeed been greatly improved.

The emperor asked him not to be too tired, so he simply accepted the beauty. He went to see it for ten days and a half months, and then went to the brick kiln in the workshop to inspect it. The emperor did not call him on weekdays. He was in charge of foreign affairs in the Ministry of Industry. Even the morning morning can be lazy, but let him have a lot of free time.

Since he was idle, he simply called the craftsmen to come, and planned to expand the mansion around, turning the small second mansion into a big mansion with third mansion, and the official rank would not be too extravagant.He will be promoted after the performance appraisal. In fact, he has considered buying the mansion near the imperial city, so that the commuting time can be shortened in the future.

But after discussing with Qiao Hezhi, I have gotten used to living here in the past two years, and it is very troublesome to change the house, and there are more and more servants and furniture at home, which is completely different from when I first moved here. easy.Moreover, everyone in Yuncheng knows that the mansion in the capital is here, if they change the mansion rashly, it may be difficult to receive and send letters.

Furthermore, after Sheng Jia's promotion edict came down, Sheng Jia rushed to send a letter, saying that he would come to Beijing as soon as possible, and hoped that Fang Yu would help with some arrangements in the capital to see if there was any suitable mansion.

The two have known each other for so many years, although they have not been together all the time due to the transfer of official positions, but the letters have been exchanged frequently in these years, and he agreed to Sheng Jia's request in one go.Coincidentally, there is a mansion for sale near them. They are actually neighbors. The mansions in this area are not close together like the outer city. The distance between the houses is only one or two feet, and the houses are sparse. It is more than a hundred meters, so it is also convenient for the expansion of the mansion.

That family is also a scholar of scholar status, and because they want to go back to their hometown to develop, they are planning to sell the house at this end.Fang Yu and Qiao Hezhi went to see the mansion together, and the mansion in the inner city was not too bad, so they decided on it for Sheng Jia for the time being. If they came and looked inappropriate, Fang Yu could take over by himself, just in case one day When he was in power, he opened up the two mansions and lived in a super big villa.

"The house in the inner city is actually a bit higher than the price we paid for the house when we came here."

When Qiao Hezhi and Fang Yu went to pay the money, they couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Nowadays the official road has been refurbished, and it is already possible to pass through two post stations. At first, it took two days to walk between the two post stations, and it took more than a day to ride a horse and a car. Nowadays, it can take one day to take the official road. With the convenience of traffic, the price of the house has naturally been raised." Fang Yu said: "The price of the house in the outer city has increased, and the inner city is where the dignitaries live, and they are unwilling to lag behind."

Qiao Hezhi inadvertently frowned and snickered: "Master Sheng is now able to buy real estate in the inner city without blinking an eye. It seems that life in Yuncheng has been easy for the past two years."

Fang Yu knew what Qiao Hezhi meant, that a rich place is easy to fish for, unlike him, several departments in succession are Qingshui yamen, and the money is all earned by himself.

However, as a person who can increase the financial revenue of the court, how can he be short of money for himself? In the past two years, the family's business has been good, and the people in the capital have become more and more inseparable from the tabloids. The manpower has increased batch by batch, and the newspaper office has also been transferred from the original small building to a large building, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate so many people.

The income in the newspaper office can be said to be increasing day by day. He has not bothered about money for a long time. This year, his mind is probably devoted to the court.

Fang Yu squeezed Qiao Hezhi's hand, and said with a straight face: "This is nonsense, Sheng Da is an upright person, how can he engage in crooked ways. It's just the Yue family's great help."

The Qi family is flourishing, and it is indeed worth money, but Fang Yu talked to him like this, he still snorted softly, turned his head and got on the sedan chair.

……

"Still angry, I was just joking."

Fang Yu put down the saw in his hand, patted the swing that had just formed, and said to Qiao Hezhi who came out of the house: "Come here and see if the swing looks good."

"It's beautiful. How can Master Fang not look good?"

Qiao Hezhi came over slowly, Fang Yu saw that he was dressed neatly and yet simple, and asked, "Want to go out?"

"Well, General Xiao was seriously injured during the battle, his leg injury has never healed, and he sits in a wheelchair all day long, how can a general feel better like this." Qiao Hezhi couldn't help sighing at this point, but then he smiled again Said: "The tabloids have been publishing the search for a doctor. Two days ago, a little brother who came to the newspaper said that there was an old doctor in their village who was good at treating bone injuries. After being cured, I can walk like flying.”

"It sounds absurd, but the newspaper office still left the doctor's address. I discussed it with You Lian and decided to go and have a look first to inquire about the situation. I didn't inform General Xiao in advance. I'm afraid there will be no joy at that time."

Fang Yu heard that this was a good thing, but: "Why didn't you tell me earlier."

"There's no need for you to come forward for this matter, don't you still have to be busy with the affairs of the Ministry of Industry and keep an eye on the expansion of your home?"

"Anyway, I'm going too."

The two stalemate in the garden for a while, Qiao Hezhi had nothing to do with Fang Yu, sighed and had to let others go.It would be faster to go out and ride a horse, but today it is a little sunny, so I had to go out in a carriage.

Sitting in the carriage with Fang Yu, he drooped his eyebrows and pouted his lips to look at the person in front of him: "I had agreed with You Lian that the two of us would go, but now you insist on following, how can I explain to others?"

Fang Yu looked at the angry Qiao Hezhi a little amused, he leaned forward shamelessly and kissed on the pouty lips: "Multiple people take care of you, I can tell you, like those who claim to be highly skilled in medicine People have very weird personalities, you will be bullied if you are thin-skinned."

Qiao Hezhi quickly covered his mouth: "What kind of rascal are you playing in the blue sky and white day?"

Then he said angrily: "Healers are not as unreasonable as you said."

Fang Yu opened his eyes and said nonsense, "Your husband, I eat more salt than you eat rice, just trust me."

"In order to be able to go out, I really can make up anything." Qiao Hezhi slandered in a low voice, and the carriages and horses soon arrived at the general's mansion.

At this moment, a carriage had already parked outside, and You Lian saw Qiao's carriage coming and quickly went up to greet him: "He Zhi, you are here, let's go quickly, the village is a little far away."

After saying that, You Lian looked at his carriage with some embarrassment: "Cong Fan said that he also wants to go and have a look."

Qiao Hezhi turned around and saw Xiao Congfan sitting in the carriage of the Xiao family, and nodded slightly to him.Qiao Hezhi laughed bitterly, and whispered to You Lian, "Didn't you say that you should keep this matter from the general first?"

You Lian was quite embarrassed: "I couldn't pretend to be something in my heart, and he got my words out with a few interrogations."

Qiao Hezhi looked at You Lian helplessly.At this time Fang Yu jumped off the carriage, Fang Yu waved to Xiao Congfan and You Lian.

"Lord Fang is here too." You Lian was a little surprised, but felt reasonable, and glanced at Qiao Hezhi meaningfully.

"He has a good rest today."

You Lian saw it through but didn't say it. For the past three days, everyone has been resting and taking a bath. The Ministry of Industry is really free.

Qiao Hezhi and You Lian looked at each other, and both smiled awkwardly. They agreed not to bring a partner, but they each broke the appointment and brought their family members.

Two carriages left the city one after the other.

This trip is to a small remote village called several villages in the suburbs of Beijing. The place has no special features, neither beautiful scenery nor outstanding industry, and the village is not big, so even fewer people know about it.

The carriage got off the official road from Wangjing Station, and it took another hour to drive to the village.

"The official road is really fast. Fortunately, I brought the card stamp and used it once."

It was the first time for Qiao Hezhi to walk the official road, and he found it very novel. He kept leaning on the window to look at the flat concrete road outside the window. Stone tablets were being erected beside the road to engrave the names of merchants who had raised large sums of money in the past.

Fang Yu reached out and brought Qiao Hezhi back, and asked him to stay by his side obediently: "You won't need that card seal twice."

"What for?"

Fang Yudao: "Your Majesty said that I have made great achievements in running the official road. After the official road is built in Changping Mansion, the Fang family and future generations will not be charged tolls for traveling the official road. I will use this honor to reward my hard work in building the road. At that time, there will also be a special establishment. Put up a stone tablet, telling the deeds of building the road."

"That doesn't make you beautiful."

"nature."

After getting off the official road, it was a wobbly dirt road. Even the coachman got used to the smooth official road when he left the capital, but when he suddenly walked on the dirt road again, he hated the bumps of the dirt road.Qiao Hezhi leaned against Fang Yu's body and fell asleep while shaking.

Fang Yu looked down at Qiao Hezhi's sleeping face, and his eyelashes trembled slightly in his sleep. Looking carefully, he felt more and more that Qingyan and Xiao Qiao looked alike.

He slightly bent his back, wanting to kiss the sleeping Mr. Qiao, but suddenly the carriage stopped.

Arrived.

Qiao Hezhi woke up with sleepy eyes, and before his eyes were clear, he was kissed directly by the mouth that came up suddenly.He slapped Fang Yu's chest with his backhand: "No one is serious in the blue sky."

Fang Yu could laugh when he succeeded, and supported Qiao Hezhi's slender waist: "Who told you to tease me all the time, well, get up and get down to business."

After getting off the carriage, a few people discovered that some villages are remote, the sun is not very good, and the weather is colder than other places. At this time, the crops are still being confiscated.

When the people in the village saw strangers coming into the village, they looked like noble people, but they were also polite, and said bluntly: "You are here to find Dr. Gu in some villages."

You Lian pushed Xiao Congfan's wheelchair, his eyes lit up: "Does the old man know where Doctor Gu lives?"

"I don't know, there are often noble people who come to look for Doctor Gu. Some of our villages are not big, and Doctor Gu is in the house at the foot of the mountain. I just don't know if Doctor Gu is in the village today."

The villager carried a hoe and said, "However, even in the village, Doctor Gu may not necessarily be able to cure diseases."

"Why?"

The villagers said: "Doctor Gu is moody. He doesn't treat his illness when he's happy, and he treats his illness when he's unhappy. Sometimes he sees people ordering dishes. The neighbors of the village don't charge money for medical treatment, and those who come to seek medical treatment charge high fees; others come to ask for help. He is dead, and sometimes he rushes to treat others by himself; the weather does not cure the disease, the rain does not cure the wind, the cold winter, summer and snow do not cure the disease... In short, if he wants to cure you, he will not treat him. Treat him as well, if he doesn’t want to treat you, he can always find a reason to shirk it, and he won’t treat you whatever you say.”

"Everyone, go and try your luck." The villager glanced at the heroic man in the wheelchair, and said something hopeful: "However, Doctor Gu's medical skills are absolutely worthless. All patients healed, especially bone diseases."

Fang Yu complained secretly when he heard the words, this doctor is so picky about treating diseases, I am afraid that he will shirk away those who can't be cured, and only treat those who are cured, of course the recovery rate is high.

After Qiao Hezhi gave the old farmer some money, the old farmer happily went to the field, obviously not the first time he took on this kind of work.

"Look at your crow's mouth."

Qiao Hezhi glanced at Fang Yu resentfully.Fang Yu coughed dryly, it was written like this in the text, art really comes from life.

But no matter what, the words of the villagers still ignited hope in everyone's hearts. When they rushed to the address mentioned by the villagers, they were sure that they had not gone wrong.

There are quite a few dustpans in the small farmyard, and herbs are drying in them.

One was sitting in a wheelchair, two younger brothers, and some attendants. Of course, only Fang Yu went forward to knock on the door. Luckily, there was someone in the farmyard.

"I heard it, I heard it, I heard the sound coming from all the way."

An impatient voice came from the room, and after a while several people heard the door opening, and a young old man who looked very energetic came to the door: "What's the matter? A doctor?"

"Doctor Gu, you are really kind! I have heard that you have excellent medical skills and are proficient in bone diseases. My friend's leg injury has not healed for a long time, and I ask you to see a doctor."

The man saw the man in the wheelchair at a glance, but he had no intention of opening the courtyard door.After listening to it, he turned around and went under the layers of dustpans in the yard to get a basket, threw the sickle on the ground into the basket, picked up the hoe, took off the straw hat hanging in front of the eaves, and put it on top of his head. It was slow, because he didn't pay attention to the crowd of people outside the door.

"I can't be free."

After saying that, the man opened the back door and went out from there.

Several people looked at each other, Fang Yu hurried around to the back door to block the old man, the old man was not angry, and only said to Fang Yu, who was tall and well-proportioned: "Next time, next time."

Fang Yu had a cheeky face: "It's better to hit the sun than choose the day."

The old man is strict: "Today, I have checked the almanac, so it is not suitable for medical treatment."

"Where is it, today is 21, it is advisable to destroy the house, destroy the wall, and seek medical treatment."

The old man looked up at the sky again: "The sun is a bit bright, and people feel flustered in the sun, and their hands tremble while holding a knife."

"Healing is done indoors, without exposure to the sun. If it's cloudy and windy, it's easy to squint your eyes. If it's rainy and thundery, you'll be disturbed. It's best on a sunny day."

The old man shut his mouth and looked Fang Yu up and down: "You are a storyteller, you can say ten sentences if I say one."

Fang Yu sincerely said, "Teacher."

"Teacher." The old man was silent: "Teacher is good, but I have to go to the field to harvest wheat today, otherwise I will see your friend."

"It's not easy. We have a lot of manpower. Let the followers go to cut the wheat, and it will be harvested soon. Taking advantage of the good weather today, we can still dry it in the sun."

The old man said: "You begged me to see a doctor for your friend. Why do you want others to help you pay back? You go and cut the wheat with me. If it is not dark when you come back, I will see a doctor for your friend."

Fang Yu smiled, looked back at Qiao Hezhi, and quickly said to the old man, "It's a deal."

You Lian rushed over: "How can I ask Fang...Master to go to the field for us, let me go."

"No, let him go." The old man walked to the front with a basket on his back: "He is so eloquent, let him go to the field to have a good talk, and I won't be a doctor if I were someone else."

Xiao Congfan also frowned. He is a martial artist who has always been arrogant, and he is unwilling to bow his head and compromise. If the doctor is really capable, that's all. torture.

"Brother Fang, forget it."

"No matter how slim the opportunity is, don't give up lightly. Some people still need Brother Xiao."

Xiao Congfan knew what Fang Yu meant, but letting Fang Yu go to work as a scholar is really...

Qiao Hezhi said: "It's okay, let him go, he will go to the ground."

Fang Yu patted Qiao Hezhi's head: "I will definitely go back early."

Looking at Fang Yu who ran towards the narrow path to chase the old man, they all sighed slightly.It is impossible for a doctor like this to tie him up and force him to treat illnesses, and everything has to go his way.

"It's not an option for us to wait here. Why don't we spend some money to find out what the doctor likes at the nearby people's house, so that we can match what he likes."

Qiao Hezhi suggested, You Lian agreed, and the three of them went to the nearby farmers.

When Fang Yu arrived in the field, the old man pointed to a wheat field not far away. The surrounding wheat fields had already been harvested. Also standing straight up the wheat.

"Doctor Gu is really a noble person. Look at the folks who planted the winter wheat quickly. Your autumn wheat hasn't been harvested yet."

The old man put down the basket, and said without blushing, "This wheat was planted late, so it is reasonable to harvest it late."

He gave Fang Yu the sickle and raised his chin: "Go."

"Aren't you going?"

The old man said: "What am I going to do, I only have one sickle, I thought you brought your own."

Who came all the way from the capital to bring a sickle!

Fang Yu could tell that the old man had intentions.But he didn't argue too much, he jumped into the wheat field and began to cut the wheat.

In fact, it was the first time for him to harvest wheat. At first, the people in Yuncheng planted rice in paddy fields, and they seldom used to grow wheat. Yes, it doesn't take much skill to work hard, and you can get started quickly.

The old man was sitting on the ridge of the field, and at some point dug out a gourd from his back basket, which looked like it was filled with wine. Looking at the people working in the field with their buttocks pouted, he felt very carefree while drinking wine, so he went with him. The young man chattered: "I underestimated you, I never thought that a teacher would go to the field."

"Multiple skills and multiple ways of life. Doctor Gu often uses this trick to make things difficult for people who come to seek medical treatment. Look at this, I avoided making trouble because of multiple skills today."

"If you are so good at talking, you might as well go to the book."

While cutting the wheat, Fang Yu said, "You earn too little from storytelling. My husband is as beautiful as a flower. How can you support him by earning money from storytelling?"

The old man thought he was already a very shameless person, but he didn't expect to meet a young and shameless person with more profound knowledge than himself, and he was a little bit unwilling to be at a disadvantage.

"I just saw your husband, Shang Ke. But..."

Fang Yu paused: "But what?"

Seeing that Fang Yu lost his self-confidence just now, the old man became complacent: "You don't have any sons."

Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly: "We are still young, and we are not in a hurry to have a son."

But the old man gave him a heavy blow: "You are a nice person, but you have a bad face, so you can't give birth to a son."

Fang Yu laughed angrily: "Are you a doctor or a warlock? You can't treat a disease based on your appearance."

The old man raised his neck and said, "If you want to believe it, believe it. If you don't believe it, pretend I didn't say it."

Fang Yu was silent and did not speak, he cut the wheat with his head dull, the old man secretly counted to see how long he could hold on, never thought that a quarter of an hour had passed and he did not say anything, so he couldn't hold back and said: "You don't agree with me. Looking for a way?"

"As far as I am concerned, it doesn't matter if I have a son or not. I already have a child, so I am content without a son."

The old man snorted mockingly.

"Doctor Gu, do you want to go back and have some food? You have roasted goose, tofu and crucian carp soup, and marinated beef tongue..."

Qiao Hezhi's voice came from a distance, and the old man was hungry: "Nonsense."

"The village borrowed a pot to cook it. It has already been cooked. I'm afraid it will be cold later."

Qiao Hezhi ran over suddenly, glanced at Fang Yu who was working in the field, and tried his best to send the old man back.

"There is also the rice wine from the east of the village. It just happened to go there."

The old man couldn't help but slapped his mouth: "You husband and wife are really cunning!"

He got up from the top of the field, pointed at Fang Yu and said, "You cut the wheat here, and I'll go back to eat."

Fang Yu looked at the old man who was hurriedly running home with his trouser legs up, and couldn't help laughing: "Then why are you still here?"

The old man didn't answer his question, Qiao Hezhi stayed behind, and wanted to jump off the field, but Tian Kanzi was too high, and he was afraid of spraining his feet, so he waited for Fang Yu to come and hug him down.

"Are you cooking?"

"We inquired from the folks what Dr. Gu likes to eat, so we borrowed the ingredients and made meals. The cooking was a bit rushed, and the taste was not as good as the ones made at home, but it should be enough for Dr. Gu."

Qiao Hezhi took out the borrowed sickle and knelt down to help Fang Yu cut the wheat: "He won't return it and supervise the work?"

Fang Yu said: "Don't worry, he won't come back. He eats people with short hands and soft mouths. Doctor Gu doesn't care about vanity. He doesn't care about rewards and rewards. He is a man of character. Since he took this step and went back to eat Yes, I will definitely see a doctor."

After saying that, he sighed slightly again: "But I have to cut the wheat, after all, I promised."

"I will cut with you."

"Okay, I'll teach you."

As expected, someone came to report half an hour later, saying that the doctor had started seeing the general.

Fang Yu waved to the attendant who came to report, and kindly handed him the sickle in his hand, and then led Qiao Hezhi up the field ridge.

Back in the village, Dr. Gu had already seen the doctor with Xiao Congfan.

"Old diseases and new injuries have ruined the muscles and bones. If you want to get better, you need a long course of treatment to heal slowly."

You Lian couldn't help being surprised when he heard the words: "Then is there still hope for my husband to be alive?"

Dr. Gu packed his tools. In fact, he probably guessed the identity of the person in the wheelchair from the time of consultation. He still respects those who guard the country's territory: "Take care of it carefully. Recovery. But it will take seven days to come for diagnosis and treatment."

After speaking, seeing the two people who came back from the field, the old man returned to his meal and said, "Forget it, bumping back and forth is not good for repairing, so I'll make a few trips to see a doctor, and leave an address at that time." .”

A few people are naturally grateful.

On the way back, Xiao Congfan said to Fang Yu, "Thank you Brother Fang today."

"What are you doing politely? The general has to take care of his health quickly. The war in the northwest is not going well. I'm afraid the general will still be needed."

Xiao Congfan said: "The treatment of the leg disease must not be made public. If I really want to come here every seven days, I'm afraid it's not easy to hide it. It's much easier for him to come here voluntarily. Northwest... the prince wants me to stay in the capital and wait and see. situation."

Fang Yu's eyebrows twitched when he heard this, Chu Jing is not far away in the northwest, and he really needs someone to stay in the capital to watch.

"Lord Fang, the prince values ​​you very much."

Xiao Congfan smiled slightly. Although their husbands often see each other, Fang Yu and Xiao Congfan don't have much contact.Xiao Congfan got Chu Jingfei's confession before he returned to Beijing. Fang Yu had just entered the court and his foundation was not stable. If any accident happened then, let him take care of it secretly.

Chu Jingfei is a very cautious person. The two grew up together. He knows the sixth prince very well. Chu Jingfei, who has always been very demanding in recruiting customers, would choose a new Jinshi. At that time, he also felt a little strange. It was still Chu Jingfei who had a vicious eye.

In just a short time, Fang Yu has won the Sacred Heart and has been promoted several times. If he can serve Chu Jingfei wholeheartedly, it will be an excellent help.

He said this, one is to warn Fang Yu, and the other is to win over people for Chu Jingfei. Now who is the most popular in the court, the parties will not be able to see, it is inevitable that the parties will not make room Yu Xindong's condition.

Fang Yu laughed: "I also value the prince very much."

Xiao Congfan understood what he said, and didn't say any more.

After returning to the carriage, Qiao Hezhi was in a good mood. Fang Yu pinched Qiao Hezhi's face: "If I had known what happened to the old man, I would not have come to suffer. I ate it."

Qiao Hezhi beat Fang Yu's legs meekly and flatteringly: "Thank you, Mr. Fang, for your help today. Mr. Qiao is very grateful."

"Whoever is obedient can't speak, as long as you say a few words, you can get things done, and there will be no difficulty in the world."

Fang Yu said, he tilted his head and whispered to Qiao Hezhi: "You don't know how sharp the old man's teeth are, he actually said that I can't have a son!"

"There is such a thing?" Qiao Hezhi couldn't believe it, he pursed his lips, no matter how he said it should be his own fault.

Fang Yu nodded. In fact, he faintly felt that the old man had something on him. He said that he was good. Of course, he was a good person. It was not groundless to say that he had a bad face.The original owner looks like a dog, but he is a villain.

Seeing Fang Yu's thoughtful appearance, Qiao Hezhi said: "Then, let's have a son earlier, won't his words be broken without attacking?"

Fang Yu lowered his eyes and looked at Qiao Hezhi beside him, and muttered: "I can't possibly be able to have a son by myself. You don't have a backache one day, but you have a handache that day, or you are tired and sleepy. I don't care. Dare to touch you."

Qiao Hezhi blushed slightly, and was embarrassed to speak.

Fang Yu smiled slyly, raised his eyebrows at Qiao Hezhi: "Huh?"

Qiao Hezhi glanced back at him, blushing even more: "Yes.
