Chapter 38: Investigating the Miracle Doctor
The steward replied: "His family originally planned to cultivate the land this year and next, but when I heard that our government wanted to redeem it, I didn't dare not give it. I only asked for 10,000 taels of silver."
The servants below couldn't help but cluck their tongues and said: "It's true that the businessman values profit! When we sold the house to him, we only had five or six thousand taels of silver, but now we dare to open our mouths and ask for ten thousand taels. It's too evil. Some more!"
Shen Qiujun secretly thought: Compared with the income after this, ten thousand taels is still a small amount!
The steward hurriedly replied: "I asked someone to estimate the price for the small one. Ten thousand taels of silver is considered appropriate."
Mrs. Shen was also thinking in her mind: Back then, when the war was already in chaos and everyone was in panic, she was afraid of making Qiuer hate her, so she dealt with it randomly!
Now that the country is at peace and the people are in peace, and they are in the suburbs of the capital, their businessmen have many ways to make money. It is easy to earn ten thousand taels. Kuang's house is not short of these ten thousand taels of silver, which makes it possible to avoid being forced to I'm in a hurry, if his family doesn't sell it, the Hou Mansion can still use its power to force him!
After Mrs. Shen thought about it, she smiled and said: "Their businessmen always buy low and sell high. You have worked hard today. Go down and have a good rest. We will discuss it with the Marquis when he comes back and then make plans."
After the steward left, Mrs. Shen smiled at her daughter and said, "Don't worry about these things. Wait until your father comes back and let him make his own decisions! Ten thousand taels of silver is not a drop in the bucket to him."
Shen Qiujun laughed: "I didn't know that my father was actually the God of Wealth!"
After all, Mrs. Shen is an elderly person. She has been excited for most of the day and is a little out of energy. Shen Qiujun is busy serving his mother to take a rest. When he sees his mother falling asleep, Shen Qiujun comes to the small study outside.
After ordering someone to set up the Four Treasures of the Study, Shen Qiujun sat there, closed his eyes and thought about it for a long time, silently writing down the rough formula of rouge and gouache that he still remembered.
After the ink was dried, Shen Qiujun handed it to Aunt Ding who was waiting next to him, and said with a soft smile: "I know that my ancestors used to make rouge gouache, so I asked you to make it carefully today. If you can really get it, I will start it in the future." Let grandma be the steward of a shop."
Aunt Ding took the formula and said with a smile: "Thank you to the lady, I will definitely live up to the trust of the lady! Forget about taking care of things, I only want to serve the lady wholeheartedly, and I don't want to do the worrying things. I have never done it and can't do it." Come."
Shen Qiujun smiled and said, "We'll talk about this later! This recipe needs to be carefully kept and made secretly by your family. I'm impatient to know these details. When the shop opens, I'll let your son and wife take care of it!" "
Nanny Ding originally thought that it was just a temporary interest of the young lady, but now it seems that the young lady really has high hopes for this, and she has the intention to reuse her family. Looking at the formula in her hand, it is indeed unusual, and she hurriedly knelt down Next: "Thank you, miss! I have taken note of it!"
At this time, when he heard Mrs. Shen talking in the upper room, Shen Qiujun hurriedly walked over, and sure enough, Mrs. Shen was awake.
Shen Qiujun hurriedly helped her mother wash up. Mrs. Shen asked the girl to comb her hair again and said with a smile: "You must have grown up, and you serve her more carefully than those little girls!"
Shen Qiujun was holding a gold hairpin and comparing it in the mirror. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "My daughter has cost the family so much money. If she doesn't show more filial piety, she will really feel uncomfortable. Now because of the rouge and gouache issue, I have to trouble the people around my mother, so I have to make up for it myself."
Mrs. Shen looked at the hairpin that her daughter put on in the mirror, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "We have a lot of servants in our family. Not to mention Aunt Ding, there are others. If you want to use them, just take care of them." I have summoned them, my mother has not reached the age where she cannot move, but it is just for the dignity of Mrs. Houfu that I summoned so many people."
Shen Qiujun felt something in his heart and sighed softly: "My mother always loves me so much! The same is true for my family, and they are not afraid of spoiling me."
Mrs. Shen's eyes were a little moist, and she said angrily to her daughter: "What are you talking about! You are the flesh that fell off your mother's body, the young lady of the Shen family. How come your family doesn't love you, and you are kind-hearted and filial. Why are you always so busy lately?" Say those raw words!"
Shen Qiujun hugged his mother and said with a smile: "It is said that as the daughter grows up, the nurturing complex will naturally become stronger!"
Mrs. Shen sighed: "Yes, I was such a little kid back then, and now I'm getting married in the blink of an eye!"
Shen Qiujun smiled and said: "I'm afraid it will be difficult for a daughter to get married in this life. Who among the men in the world can be worthy of a daughter?"
When Mrs. Shen heard her daughter's intention, she actually wanted to get married, she was completely relieved. When she was about to speak, the girl outside said: "The master and the second young master are back."
Mrs. Shen took a look and saw that it was indeed getting late, so she got up and started preparing for dinner.
Shen Zhaoning listened to his father's instructions in the study. When he came out of the room, he saw that his sister was also in the main room, so she walked over and whispered: "You asked me to find the old herb collector named Xin a few days ago. I have found him." ”
Shen Qiujun's eyes lit up and he quickly asked: "What's his condition now?"
In the first few days after his rebirth, Shen Qiujun asked his brother to help him find out about the anonymous Doctor Xue.
Shen Qiujun knew the name of Doctor Xue back then, but he didn't connect him with that poor old man.
She wanted to know what happened to the pill back then. Someone had ulterior motives and used her to get rid of the fetus in her sister's belly. There was also something wrong with her sister's pregnancy.
Now that she has lived in Zhuangzi outside the city for a few days, Shen Qiujun has already guessed that her eldest sister's pregnancy is dangerous. Regardless of whether there is any problem with the medicine, at least she should have invited Dr. Xue to ensure her sister's safe delivery.
Shen Zhaoning glanced at his sister doubtfully and said with a smile: "You asked me to find such an old man, I thought you knew him very well!"
"I don't know him, I just heard from people that he has extremely high medical skills, so I want to find out more about it so that I can recommend him to my eldest sister!" Shen Qiujun explained with a smile: "If you really gave birth in that Zhuangzi, only two imperial doctors would be able to give birth to him." People don’t feel at ease!”
Shen Zhaoning sighed: "You girls are still attentive! That old Xin Tou's grandfather and grandson depend on each other and make a living by collecting medicines. After asking around, I found out that although he also prescribes some medicines to the poor in the village, I have never heard of him. His medical skills are superb. Who did you listen to? He must not have lied to you!"
"It's him!" Shen Qiujun affirmed, and smiled at Shen Zhaoning: "You don't need to disturb him now. If you have free time these days, come with me to meet him!"
Shen Zhaoning nodded and smiled again: "I just heard that my sister is going to make clothes. The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and the time is very tight. If you have any work, please leave it to Chuntao Chunxing in my house. Even if you do it, they are still impressed by their needlework!"
Shen Qiujun smiled and said, "If I can't catch their eye with their bright and colorful work, I'm afraid I'll have to go to the palace and invite the female official from Si Zhen's room."
Shen Zhaoning smiled and said: "In that case, just send them some sewing work. I don't have anything to do there. There are little girls and women anyway!"
Shen Qiujun thanked him with a smile, but said seriously: "I'm afraid it's inappropriate! After all, they are also members of my brother's house, and it's not like there is no one to use them in the house. How can a sister go to order the people in his house?"
