Subversion of the plot [Comprehensive]

Chapter 130 The Dream of the Red Mansion 2

Xu Yan came here to discuss medical skills, although Tao Shuobai knew a little bit, but talking in front of Xu Yan was a bit tricky.What's important is that when he met Xu Yan, his heart moved slightly, because the look in Xu Yan's eyes just now resembled Qin Feng in two generations.

In his last life, he spent more time with Qin Feng, more than a hundred years, and he still accompanied Qin Feng through his whole life in Shanghai.

In the small world between the water and the clouds, Qin Feng has a high starting point. Since the 18th year of the Republic of China, he has done more things, and it has really affected the course of history.Among other things, just shortening the duration of the War of Resistance is enough to make people happy. The war ended early, and I don’t know how many people survived.

"Master Tao, have we met somewhere?" Xu Yan was not being polite, but he felt close to Tao Shuobai when he saw Tao Shuobai, as if he had known each other before.

Tao Shuobai knew the reason, but he couldn't open his mouth to say it, he only pretended to go to the house to get a book, but in fact he took a book of prescriptions from the bamboo house in the jade bracelet space.In the last two lives, he and Qin Feng flipped through the books in his spare time. It was difficult to understand the profound, but some of them could be produced on the assembly line. For this reason, after Qin Feng established a pharmaceutical company, he even hired a chief The identity of the pharmacist is deceptive.

He handed the book to Xu Yan: "I got this book by accident. I only know superficially about medical skills, and it will definitely be more beneficial in your hands."

When Xu Yan saw that it was a prescription book, he didn't pay much attention to it at first, but when he flipped through it casually, he saw a lot of strange prescriptions, which he had never heard of.He was delighted to see Lie Xin immediately, and when he read it carefully, he found it even more ingenious, and he couldn't help but admire: "Who wrote this? It's really a good book! After reading it, it's like enlightenment, and I couldn't understand it before." The place, all of them have been solved, this prescription has a bold idea and precise medicine, which is amazing!"

"I don't know, but I still have a few books. I think the author is also a doctor." Tao Shuo said.

Xu Yan's heart became hot, and he was about to ask for a book again, but suddenly stopped.When the two met for the first time, the other party was willing to lend such a precious thing to him for viewing, which was extremely generous, and he hadn't fully understood the book yet, so why be greedy.

In this way, he suppressed his heart eagerly.

Xu Yan thought about the purpose of coming here, and asked about the medicine he gave Jia Min and Daiyu: "I am indeed very curious about the medicine, and not only that, Mrs. Lin's illness is diagnosed and treated by me, and I know that I have taken it before. What kind of medicine is the best way to deal with it. I am not very good at children's diseases, this Miss Lin is born weak, sensitive and sentimental, which is very unfavorable for the condition."

In fact, Jia Min's disease was caused by the worsening of a woman's disease, and Lin Daiyu's disease was not limited to children.However, doctors only start to study medicine extensively, and gradually focus on it after they have a solid foundation. Xu Yan is the best among doctors.

"Miss Lin eats only flower dew." Tao Shuobai said as he took out a small emerald jade bottle and handed it to him.

Seeing that he didn't mention Jia Min's medicine, Xu Yan felt worried, so he stopped asking. He took the small bottle and pulled out the stopper. When he smelled it, he felt a refreshing fragrance penetrated into his limbs, his head was clear and his eyes were clear, and his heart was happy. , The whole body is extremely comfortable.

"It's strange that this kind of flower dew is so beneficial to her." Xu Yan couldn't tell how the flower dew was made by a secret method, but it was by no means unusual, and it was not easy to ask about the formula.

If it was Xu Yan in the past, he would have devoted himself to studying the prescription long ago, but this time he was a little reluctant to part with it.He chatted some gossip with Tao Shuobai, but he still had no clue about its origin, guessing that it was probably because he was not familiar with him, so he stopped bothering him and left.

After returning home, Xu Yan read through the prescription records carefully, borrowed from the evidence, and changed the prescription that was originally prepared for Jia Min.Although it is more difficult to find two types of medicinal materials in the revised prescription, the effect is better. Besides, Lin's family is well-off, and Lin Ruhai is a second-rank official, so the medicinal materials are not particularly difficult for him.

A few days later, Jia Min's complexion had improved. Although he had not recovered from his illness, his spirit was getting stronger day by day, and he could eat some food.Daiyu drank floral dew every night before going to bed, her sleep was sweet, her little face was rosy, and when she smiled, she showed two dimples, not to mention how cute she was.

Lin Ruhai was very excited, and his heart was completely relieved.

"Uncle Fu, how is Mr. Tao living?" Lin Ruhai thought of the person who contributed to this matter.

"Master, don't worry, I watched it myself, no one would dare to neglect Mr. Tao."

"I'll go and thank you in person." Lin Ruhai let go of the last suspicion, and looking at Tao Shuobai is like looking at an expert outside the world, not to mention how blind and superstitious he is, but he gave him deep respect and gratitude.

Just as Lin Ruhai came out of the study, a young man ran towards him.

"My lord, Second Master Lian from the Rongguo Mansion in Beijing has arrived."

"Lian'er?" Lin Ruhai remembered that Jia Min was seriously ill before, and he had written to Jia's mansion. If Jia Min was seriously ill, Jia's mansion would come to pay his respects, but...he asked, "Except for Jia Lian. , Who else is here in the Jia residence?"

"In addition to the second master Lian, there is also a servant who often follows a servant and several servants."

Lin Ruhai frowned, and then let go.

It stands to reason that if Jia Min really passed away, it should be someone of the same generation from the Jia family who came over. But think about the situation of the Jia family - when the great master Jia She inherited the title, there was only a first-class general left. , How are you willing to travel all the way?The second master, Jia Zheng, has a good character, but he is on duty in the Ministry of Industry, how can he get away with it?In addition, the Jia family had no one else to use. In the younger generation, although Jia Lian was the second, he was the head of the family. He had no achievements in poetry and writing and official career, but he was good at foreign affairs.Although it's not good to talk about other family's affairs, but Jia Lian, as the grandson of the eldest son, didn't work hard on the serious business, and no one in the Jia family took care of him, so he wasted like a manager. Who can the Jia family rely on in the future?

It is said that Baoyu of the Jia family is intelligent. After all, he is young. It will take a long time for Baoyu to grow up.

"Please come in." Lin Ruhai could only go to see Tao Shuobai later.

But it is said that Jia Lian was born handsome and romantic, and he is also the son of a wealthy family. He is as greedy and stealthy as his father Jia She, but the situation is completely opposite.Jia She's first spouse has passed away, and now Mrs. Xing is filling the house and has nothing to do. She is stingy and greedy for money. Jia She never opens her eyes to look at her. When Mrs. Xing sees Jia She, she is like a mouse seeing a cat.Jia Lian's daughter-in-law is Wang Xifeng, the niece of Mrs. Wang's aunt.The two have known each other since they were young, and Wang Xifeng was bright and glamorous. They were really affectionate, but the only thing was that Wang Xifeng had a strong temper and was jealous.

Jia Lian didn't succeed in studying, so he donated a fellow acquaintance, but it was just for looking good, and he never went to the yamen.

This trip to the south was sent by Jia Mu, although it was hard work, it was also a good job.It is said that there are beauties in the south of the Yangtze River, and he came here to see them. The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the dominatrix at home can't care.Furthermore, when my aunt passed away, the old lady told her to take Daiyu to Beijing, so Uncle Lin would definitely give her some favors.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the place, Jia Lian realized that something was wrong. The Lin family was the same as before.He asked a question, and found out that his aunt's condition had improved, and everyone in the house got rewards.All of a sudden, his calculations were in vain, he was so disappointed, he hurriedly put away the sad look on his face, but made up his mind to stay in the south of the Yangtze River for a few days.

"Uncle." Jia Lian didn't dare to be careless when facing Lin Ruhai, and bowed respectfully.

"Lian'er has worked hard all the way." Lin Ruhai first talked about Jia Min's situation, and shared his joy with him, then asked about the recent situation of Jia's family, and said almost, "It's rare for you to come to see your aunt, she misses her very much old lady."

Now that the transportation is inconvenient, and Lin Ruhai is an official in the imperial court, he cannot go to Beijing privately without an edict, so Jia Min has not returned to her natal home for many years.During the New Year's Eve, the gifts sent by the Lin family are always thicker. By the way, Jia Min was seriously ill, and he was sad that he could not see Jia's mother again.

When Juanbi announced that Jia Lian was coming, Jia Min was taken aback, and the hatred in his heart suddenly surged out, his expression was extremely cold: "No see!"

"... Ma'am?" Juan Bi wondered.

Jia Min quickly calmed down, rubbing her temples to feel a little tired: "I'm not recovering from my illness, and I'm low on energy. Let's go to another day."

In the past few days, Jia Min focused on Daiyu and actively took care of her body. Jia Lian's appearance revealed her resentment towards the Jia family.With a lifetime of experience, she knew that Jia Lian was ordered to bring Daiyu to Beijing, but it was ridiculous that the Jia family only sent a few third-class servants.Mother Jia wanted to make a marriage for the two Yu'er, so she would not treat her so slowly. Only Mrs. Wang could do this.

Mrs. Wang naturally held grudges when her aunt and sister-in-law did not get along, but most of them were unwilling to marry each other.At first, it wasn't too much, and the old lady could hold it back. However, since Lin Ruhai died of illness, Mrs. Wang has completely lost her fear. After all, although Daiyu is weaker, she is the daughter of a second-rank official. Marriage always has many advantages. Daiyu has completely become an orphan whose parents both died...

In this life, she must take good care of Yu'er and find a good marriage for her.

So Jia Lian temporarily stayed at Lin's house.

Jia Lian was originally ordered to pick up Daiyu, but now that Jia Min's condition has improved, this matter can't be mentioned again, as no child whose mother is ill travels far away.Knowing Jia Lian's nature, Lin Ruhai asked the second housekeeper to pay money from the account room, and led Jia Lian to visit Yangzhou City. Jia Lian took advantage of the opportunity to buy earthenware and brought them back to Beijing.In the evening, Jia Lian went alone with his servant to find entertainment. Because he lived in his uncle's house, he didn't dare to return too late, so he was very happy.

Jia Lian sighed: "Women in the south of the Yangtze River are as soft as water, but unfortunately, they have to go back to Beijing."

Jia Lian was tightly controlled by Wang Xifeng, and he didn't have much spare money on hand, but he didn't have the ability to boldly redeem a gentle Jieyu flower.Fortunately, he comforted himself that it would be good if he didn't have one, so as not to reveal his secrets, it's not easy to keep a foreign house, and it's rare to hide it.

On this day, when the ship was ready and the Tuyi was loaded, Jia Lian went to say goodbye to Jia Min.

After all, it is her natal nephew, Jia Min can't really disappear, otherwise outsiders don't know what to arrange.Although Jia Min seemed to be the same as usual, she asked the old lady, Jia pardoned Jia Zheng, and her nephews and nieces, but she had already alienated the Jia family in her heart, just to keep the population alive, gifts still had to be arranged, but it was just as usual .

Lin Ruhai was a little surprised when he saw it: "Is it too simple?"

Jia Min presided over the middle gift, and gave generous gifts to her natal family, not because she was partial to her natal family, but because the Lin family had no close relatives, and they had only one daughter under their knees.This time the gift was also discussed with Lin Ruhai.Lin Ruhai also had this concern, and because of his feelings and reason, he thought it was not inappropriate to increase the gift in return, and it was also a matter of saving Jia Min's face.

"The master knows that my mother has always wanted to achieve the marriage of the two jades, but I have always had concerns and did not respond. Now that I have been ill, I think it is wrong to think about it. Yu'er is still young, and the marriage lasted until the age of twelve or thirteen. It's not too late to see each other again, and besides, the Jia family... Baoyu has been doted on too much, so I don't know what will happen in the future. I will return the gift slightly, and I think my mother will understand what I mean. You can write another letter to the second brother and settle this matter." Jia Min is determined not to be this relative.

Lin Ruhai didn't care, and his daughter didn't worry about getting married, so he was tempted at first, but he just thought that if Jia Min was gone, Daiyu would be able to live a better life if he got married as a relative.

It so happened that Xu Yan invited Tao Shuobai out on this day, and happened to meet Jia Lian at the gate.

Just as Jia Lian was about to get into the carriage, he was really surprised to see the two people walking out, especially Tao Shuobai, who was dressed in white, with an amazing demeanor.Jia Lian is the eldest grandson of the Duke's Mansion. There are many powerful children in Beijing, but he has never seen a man who is more outstanding than this man.

Seeing the two leaving together, Jia Lian asked, "Who is that?"

Zhao'er hurriedly said: "Second Master, I can't forget, that person is Mr. Tao, the distinguished guest of the Lin family. It is said that he offered medicine to hang Mrs. Lin's life."

"It turned out to be him." Jia Lian thought it was because of his extraordinary background, but he didn't think so, so he stopped being curious.

Recently Xu Yan is researching the prescription and needs a lot of medicinal materials. This time he came out to replenish the stock of medicinal materials.At the beginning, Xu Yanzhen thought that Tao Shuobai knew a little about medicine, but after getting along with him, he realized that he was self-effacing.It can be said that Tao Shuobai's medical skills benefited from Ouyang Tomorrow I. Tomorrow's medical skills were superb, and he lived for another two or three hundred years. It is no exaggeration to call him Sai Huatuo.

After Xu Yan bought the medicinal materials, he asked Tong'er to send them back, and walked the street with Tao Shuobai.

"Madam Lin's illness has improved greatly, and I will leave the Lin family in two days. What's Shuobai's plan?"

"Master Lin wanted to hire me as a teacher to teach Miss Lin, and I agreed."

Previously, Daiyu's teacher was Jia Yucun. After Jia Min became seriously ill, Daiyu stopped attending classes. Jia Yucun just taught for one year, so she politely offered to leave.A few days ago, Jia Yucun asked to come to the door. He heard that Beijing Zhongzuo was ready to recruit veterans, and that Lin Ruhai and his family belonged to the Rongguo Mansion, so he came to seek Lin Ruhai's recommendation.Lin Ruhai naturally agreed, and wrote a letter asking him to transfer to Jia Zheng, and introduced Jia Lian, and the two went together.

Tao Shuobai likes Daiyu very much, and apparently accepts to be a teacher, but actually plans to teach Daiyu the formula of health preservation.

Daiyu is different from ordinary mortals in that she is intelligent and has high comprehension. In short, she is suitable for cultivation.He didn't think about guiding her to re-cultivate the immortal path, because considering that Daiyu is now a mortal body and has made a wish to repay her kindness, it is best to have a successful life, old age, sickness and death, and return to her body to practice in the future.

Health regimens may seem common, but different practitioners have different benefits.The most direct benefit to Daiyu is that if she has achieved success in cultivation, her inborn deficiencies will be made up for, and if she asks a doctor to treat her slowly, her illness will also recover.After all, she is still young now, and her illness has just started, which is far from reaching the level she later experienced.

"That's great." Xu Yan was relieved to hear that he would stay in Yangzhou.

Ever since he met Tao Shuobai, he would dream every night, and he couldn't remember the scene in the dream after waking up, but he remembered the person who appeared in the dream very clearly, it was Tao Shuobai!If he hadn't always had a good memory, he would have doubted whether he had lost his memory. With contact, he felt more and more familiar.Subconsciously, he knew Tao Shuobai's food tastes and pastimes, and the other party seemed to know a lot about him.

"Doctor Xu!" An old man with a five-willow beard walked up the street and greeted Xu Yan with a smile.

"Master Zhang." Xu Yan returned the salute.

Mr. Zhang is the owner of Baicaotang, the largest medicine shop in Yangzhou. The Zhang family has grown medicines and opened medicine shops for generations, and his family has a lot of money.The medical clinic where Xu Yan sits is in Baicao Hall. Xu Yan is still very grateful to the Zhang family for trusting him and inviting him to be the doctor.

"This is..." Mr. Zhang is also well-informed, but Tao Shuobai's temperament is really rare.

"This is Mr. Tao, the teacher invited by Mr. Lin, the patrol censor, for Miss Lin." Xu Yan introduced.

"It turned out to be Mr. Tao. It's a pleasure to meet you." Master Zhang warmly invited: "Meeting is worse than meeting by chance. Let's chat in the teahouse. You have been with the Lin family for a long time, and the old man is looking for you for something."

Faced with the hospitality, Xu Yan couldn't refuse, so he went into the teahouse with Tao Shuobai.

Mr. Zhang asked for a private room, with a row of windows open, just overlooking the bustling market.After the tea was filled, Master Zhang ordered the waiter to leave, and as soon as the door was closed, Master Zhang did not shy away from Tao Shuobai's presence, and said with a smile: "Doctor Xu, you are twenty-six this year, right?"

"Exactly, Mr. Zhang has a good memory." Xu Yan smiled gently, but a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly felt irritable.

"As the saying goes: start a family and start a career. Now that you have outstanding medical skills and a good reputation, you should marry a wife and start a family. My husband entrusted me with a family, and I want to be a matchmaker for you..."

Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Xu Yanrou cut off the words unquestionably: "Master Zhang, if you want to be a matchmaker for me, you don't have to. In the early years, the eminent monk ordered me to say that I am a lonely star in my life, and I am born to restrain my wife. When I was young, my parents didn't believe me, so I made an appointment, and it turned out..."

"Which eminent monk? Is this serious?" Master Zhang was taken aback, but after thinking about it, it made sense.If it weren't for some reason, how could such a good-looking talent not get married for a long time?It's a pity, Mr. Zhang loves talents very much. After observing him for a year or two, he loves his character even more. He intends to match the youngest daughter in the family, but now he can't.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang, for your love. I hope Mr. Zhang will tell you that Xu is unlucky." Xu Yan apologized.

Master Zhang sighed, sat down again and left.

For a while, the private room quiets down, only the fragrance of tea on the table remains.

Xu Yan looked at the people who were drinking tea leisurely, feeling guilty for no reason, and just because of this, he thought of something: "Has Shuobai gotten married?"

Tao Shuo sipped the clear tea, and replied neither salty nor weak: "Not yet. How did Tao ever have your luck, and there are people everywhere who are enthusiastic about it."

"I will not marry a wife in this life!" Xu Yan blurted out.

"Really?" The corners of Tao Shuobai's mouth curled slightly, thinking that it's really interesting to tease Junshi occasionally.

Xu Yan saw that he was intentional, instead of being annoyed, he laughed even more: "I always keep my word, if I say I won't marry a wife, I won't marry a wife!"

"I am with you."

Blink of an eye is four years later.

Today's Lin family has swept away the decline and downturn a few years ago, as if the grass and trees are in spring, and they are rejuvenated and lively.Jia Min went through a difficult dream, and dared not be careless anymore, took good care of her body, and made up her mind to protect Daiyu when she grew up. Unexpectedly, it seemed as if times were changing, and happy events followed one after another.

Originally, it was difficult for the husband and wife to find a child, even the few concubines in the backyard were difficult to raise. Lin Ruhai thought that his family had been single-passed for several generations, so he guessed it must be because of him, not to mention that the husband and wife are not young, and Daiyu is enough. So he sent several concubines to take care of them with Jia Min.Unexpectedly, by accident, Jia Min became pregnant and gave birth to a healthy baby boy. The Lin family was overjoyed and didn't know what to do.

Now there is another joy, the emperor approved Lin Ruhai's transfer letter, and he will go to Beijing only after the settlement with the officials who came here is clear.

Lin Ruhai heaved a sigh of relief. The inspector of salt and censor looked at the scenery, but it was difficult and exhausting. He had been re-elected for several years, and he was really trembling.Fortunately, the emperor was willing to recall him, otherwise the new king would ascend the throne, and his fate can be imagined.

"Teacher, will you go to the capital with me?" A figure of Pingting came out of the door. Although she was only ten years old, her appearance was as clean as dust.Daiyu's talent is outstanding, and she has practiced health-preserving formulas for a long time. Now her body looks thin, but it is because of the slenderness of Jiangnan's daughter. In fact, her face is rosy and her figure is vigorous.

"En." Tao Shuobai had already resigned from the library, and the reason why he came to Beijing was to meet Xu Yan.

Xu Yan has not sat in Baicaotang since last year, and plans to open a medical clinic in Beijing, so he will take care of it first.In the original book, Lin Ruhai died of illness this year, the plot has changed, Tao Shuobai calculated that the Lin family was going to Beijing, and Daiyu was ten years old, so she happened to stop teaching.As for the three-year-old Lin Hao, he will definitely be an official in the future, so it is not appropriate for him to teach.

The waterway is unobstructed until the Duzhong Wharf.

Tao Shuobai and Lin's family separated at the pier. Lin Ruhai originally invited him to go with him, but Xu Yan said he would send someone to pick him up, so he could only thank Lin Ruhai for his kindness.After the Lin family left, Tao Shuobai found an open place to wait, but half an hour later, the so-called pick-up person did not arrive.

Tao Shuobai didn't wait any longer, although he didn't know where Xu Yan's medical clinic was, but he knew the name of the medical clinic, so let's go to the city first.

The south of the Yangtze River has always been rich and prosperous. I am used to the hustle and bustle of Yangzhou City. When I suddenly came to Beijing, it was another kind of prosperity.Tao Shuobai took out a few copper coins and looked for a beggar, and it was easy to ask for the location of the medical center.Xu Yan used to be a sitting doctor with limited savings. Since he planned to open a medical clinic, he has treated many wealthy people within a year. The consultation fee is very generous, and Tao Shuobai contributed half of the money. Xu Yan is on the busiest street. I found a shop and opened it.

As he was walking, Tao Shuobai stopped and turned his head to stare at the people following him.
