Chapter Ninety-Six: Betrayal
Zhao Dezhu invited a doctor from a medical hall at the entrance of the lamp market, and the doctor looked at the fourth master beside Erfu, his knees were soft, and he knelt directly at the door of Xinuan Pavilion, and his eyes were staring at a piece of green jade floor tiles carved with a Tuanshou pattern in front of him, for fear of inadvertently seeing the beauty on the bed, which would make the master angry.
Erfu looked at the old doctor who was fifty or sixty years old, his sideburns and beard were a little gray, but he knelt on the ground tremblingly, and then looked at the standard poker face of the fourth master, his little hand stretched out from the translucent light gauze drapery, and carefully pulled the corners of the fourth master's clothes, for fear that this master would scare others out of the disease without waiting for others to give him a treat.
The fourth master looked at Erfu's strange little hand, and then showed a smile that was not obvious, and the momentum around him was also put away, and Erfu's little hand was straightened, covered with a layer of silk veil, and checked the light gauze drapery, then got up and sat aside, and ordered the old doctor to come and check Erfu's pulse.
The old doctor didn't dare to get up, the whole person crawled from the door to the bedside, with a few beads of sweat hanging on his forehead, so he put it on Erfu's wrist, muttered for a while, and then turned his body, bowed to the fourth master, said Erfu's illness again, and said an ordinary prescription for treating wind and cold, seeing that the fourth master had no opinion, he knelt on the ground, lay on the embroidered pier, wrote the prescription, and handed it to Su Peisheng.
Su Peisheng took the prescription and handed it to the fourth master, and the poor old doctor knelt on the ground from the moment he entered the door, waiting for the fourth master's reply.
The fourth master read it seriously, and saw that the amount of various Chinese medicines was not wrong, so he nodded slightly, and explained to Su Peisheng to grab the medicine and boil the medicine, and let people send the consultation money and reward. asked the old doctor to prepare a simple small courtyard in the front yard, so that the old doctor would stay in the house these days and wait, and leave after the New Year.
The old doctor's whole person was like a frosted eggplant, and he followed a little eunuch beside the fourth master to go outside in despair.
Erf lay on the bed and could see clearly, and only then did she laugh as she watched the old doctor walk out of the room.
But when Erfu finished laughing, he was a little worried about the fourth master. Such an old doctor is so afraid of the fourth master. It can be seen that the reputation of the fourth master outside, you must know that the history books record the tyranny of the fourth master, which is also because of the eight masters' exaggeration outside the back then. And now that the Eighth Master Party has not risen, why is the Fourth Master so feared!
"What's wrong with you, but I'm worried about your body, you can rest assured that Fang Ziye has seen it just now, and asked Su Peisheng to grab the medicine and boil the medicine himself. I definitely won't get into bad things!" the fourth master was frightened by someone, and hurriedly comforted.
Erff saw that there was no more foreign man in the room. He sat up in a cotton robe, took the fourth master's big hand, and said softly: "Master, you promise me." Be sure to smile and smile often, and don't be afraid of you, so that you can hear more of the truth!"
"Afraid?" the fourth master frowned slightly. Said a little confused.
"The old doctor had been kneeling since he entered the door, and his legs were shaking when he went out. It can be seen that he is afraid of the master, because he is afraid of the master, as long as someone mentions the master in the future, he will say that the master is a difficult person to get along with, but if the master can smile more, he must also be willing to say it truthfully.
And the old doctor just now, I see that he is fifty or sixty years old, why do you want to scare him!" Erfu looked at the fourth master's disapproving appearance, and said a little anxiously, and her voice was unconsciously louder, making her already uncomfortable throat cough directly.
The fourth master hurriedly took the tea bowl on the side, fed Erfu a sip, and calmed Erfu for a while, which made Erfu stop coughing, "The old doctor just now was not afraid because of the attitude of the master, but he was just a cloth doctor, what he was afraid of was the identity of the master, not the master!"
"Is what you said true?" asked Erph, in disbelief.
The fourth master nodded very seriously and said: "Although the master doesn't often laugh, but he doesn't look scary, who do you think can scare just by sitting here, even you, this little girl, is not afraid of the master, do you think this old doctor can be afraid!"
What he is afraid of is only the identity and power of the master, and he is even more afraid that he will not be able to cure you, and the master will take his life, so he will have such a reaction, but just now the master looked at the prescription he prescribed, and he is indeed a capable person, and the handwriting is also very neat, quite arrogant, and he should be a person with an upright personality.
As for the fact that he would tremble with fear when he just went out, it was naturally because he was afraid that the master would not let him go, after all, this is for people like us to serve in the family, although there is a lot of silver, but the danger is also great, so the doctor who usually sits in the hospital like this is naturally unwilling to stay in a place like ours!"
The fourth master was afraid that Erfu would think about it, so he patiently explained, which made Erfu show a smile, half leaned on the fourth master's arms, and said softly: "I know that Ye is a good person, I can follow someone like Ye, I really feel so happy!"
"You little Nizi, you are not afraid of passing on this wind and cold to me, and you are not afraid of sitting up and blowing the wind, making your illness a little worse, and not lying down honestly!" The fourth master pinched Erfu's nose, and seeing that Erfu's voice was a little muffled, he hurriedly pulled Erfu to lie down and said softly.
Erfu also realized that she had a cold now, although it was not the flu, but it should also be contagious, and hurriedly said: "Master, when Grandpa Su sends the medicine, you can also drink some, so as not to get really sick!"
"It's a medicine with three points of poison, the master's body is so tough, naturally there is no problem, you just take care of your body, and the affairs in this mansion, the master will also arrange someone to take care of it, and it will definitely not let people give you grievances!" The fourth master looked at Erfu's worried look, knocked on his solid chest, and said with a smile.
Erfu also knew that the fourth master would often move on weekdays, and his body would not be bad, seeing that the fourth master didn't want to drink, he didn't say much, but his body rolled inside, and he avoided breathing directly at the fourth master, and even put the silk veil on the side. nose, hoping to block the spread of the virus in the air.
The fourth master shook his head slightly, muttered a "strange look" but did not toss Erfu anymore, and asked someone to prepare soup and candied fruit for Erfu, and then sat on the couch by the window, reading a book while talking with Erfu.
In this way, the distance between the two people was shortened, and Erfu was really relieved and gossiped heartlessly.
Su Peisheng's legs and feet are still very sharp, and Erfu was talking happily to the fourth master, so he had already walked in with a medicine pot, and Yuqing hurriedly took out a thin white porcelain soup bowl from the small kitchen.
The eunuch who tasted the food of the pit father appeared in the West Courtyard again.
Erfu looked at the little eunuch who was obviously very healthy, and actually drank a bowl of medicinal soup in one go, and the whole person was a little bad.
After the little eunuch drank it, Su Peisheng put the medicine pot on the charcoal basin again, warmed the medicinal soup, and after half an hour, seeing that the little eunuch had no problem, he poured out a bowl of medicinal soup and sent it to Erfu from Yuqing.
Doing it to herself, Erfu looked at the black medicinal soup, and such a sentence came out of her mind, but now that she is sick, even if she wants to carry it, the fourth master will not let her carry it, so she looks like she is at home, takes the medicine bowl in Yuqing's hand, and gulps down.
The bitter medicinal soup was a little hot, and Erfu squeezed the facial features of her whole face into a ball while spitting out her tongue and fanning the wind.
The fourth master was very considerate and tied a piece of candied fruit with a silver skewer, sent it to Erfu's mouth, and said softly: "This sweet and sour candied fruit is the most bitter reliever." ”
"Uh-huh!" Erph nodded repeatedly, looking at the plate of golden preserves, and couldn't take his eyes off it at all.
After all, there is really no fruit to eat in this place this winter, and now this candied fruit is a rarity.
The fourth master didn't hold Erfu back, but just told Erfu to drink more water after eating, and then handed the silver skewer to Erfu, who nodded with satisfaction.
"You, that is, in the master's mansion, such a little child, if you go to someone else's mansion, I am afraid that you will be eaten a long time ago!" the fourth master sat back on the couch, shook his head slightly, and said softly.
After saying that, the fourth master regretted it a little, such a wonderful person, if he came to others, he would definitely vomit to death.
Erfu just showed a very proud smile and continued to eat the candied fruit, not realizing that the fourth master on the other side was immersed in painful imagination.
But soon the fourth master figured it out, if things are always not true!
A plate of candied fruit, there were probably only about twenty pieces, but it still made Erfu very happy, so he had to pick up the tea bowl on the side and rinse his mouth.
"Now that you have taken medicine, you can't drink tea anymore, that will reduce the medicinal properties!" the fourth master's voice came from the side.
Erfu stuck out her tongue a little shyly, Yuqing sent Qing Shui, Erfu had a feeling of lying on the bed paralyzed, but this feeling was very cool, the person she liked was in front of her, and she was willing to spoil herself, she felt too cool for such a life.
..................................................................
The Wulanala clan in the main courtyard sat on the couch with a gloomy face at this time, and was very tired of knocking down the whole set of tea cups on the low table, and said in a deep voice: "Why is she sick at this time!"
Mama Fu glanced sympathetically at Song Gege, who was kneeling down, and did not help in the end, but only softly comforted the angry Wulanala clan.
It turned out that this Song Gege was really pregnant, but the Wulanala clan was a little taboo about Erfu's storage, which made Song Gege hide her pregnancy, and it didn't break out until the past two days, just to let Erfu take on the charge of plotting the heirs of the fourth master, and put Erfu directly into the cold palace.
And now that Guargarve has suddenly fallen ill, the Ulanala clan, who has been a little flustered recently, feels that the Song clan has betrayed her. (To be continued)
