Rise of the Poor

Chapter 1048: Wild geese fall on the flat sand

Views:

The noble buttocks are towering, and the wild geese are flying over the flat sand.

In full view of everyone, Zhu Ping'an lay on the couch with his injured buttocks sticking out in such a shameful posture, and was carried away from the Wumen Square by Liu Dadao and others. Li Shu gently and carefully helped Zhu Ping'an wipe his hands and face, and asked Qin'er to place a few mosquito repellent sachets on the couch to prevent mosquitoes and flies from being attracted by the blood and harassing Zhu Ping'an's injured buttocks.

"Master Zhu, go back and have a good rest."

"I never thought that Master Xiao Zhu is so loyal and upright at such a young age. He is truly a role model for us. From today on, Master Xiao Zhu will be famous throughout the court and the country, and will be known all over the world."

"Master Xiao Zhu, take care and take good care of yourself. I will visit you again another day."

When Zhu Ping'an was being carried away, several unfamiliar officials came to express their condolences to him, and their words revealed their intention to make friends with him.

“Thank you so much... No, no, no... It’s an honor... “ Zhu Ping’an had no choice but to maintain the shameful posture, lying on the couch and coping with it.

Why do I feel like I have returned with honors after being caned? No wonder many officials in history have tried to find ways to be caned. Zhu Ping'an pulled the corners of his mouth speechlessly. But please hurry up, this posture is embarrassing.

"These people are so tactless, can't they see that my brother-in-law is injured? They keep on bullying one another..." The chubby little maid Hua'er stared at the side with her cheeks puffed out, like an angry hamster.

"That's right." Qin'er felt the same way.

Fortunately, these officials were somewhat tactful. Of course, it might also be because they were stared at by Hua'er and the others. In any case, after a while, these officials who came to express their condolences tactfully left.

"Be gentle... Be careful on the steps, you stupid idiot..."

As Liu Dadao and his men were carrying the couch out of the Meridian Gate Square, the little maid Hua'er was extremely nervous and cautious, and she never stopped making fussing noises.

Before Li Shu came, she had already asked someone to invite a doctor, the retired imperial physician Zhang Taiyi. Zhang Taiyi had a long history with the Linhuai Marquis's residence, and usually the Linhuai Marquis's residence would ask Zhang Taiyi for any difficult or complicated illnesses. At this moment, Zhang Taiyi was waiting outside the Meridian Gate Square.

The Meridian Gate is the place where important state ceremonies are held, and it has a distinct political color. After being beaten with a stick in the court, one cannot receive medical treatment on the spot at the Meridian Gate, as this is disrespectful to the royal family. One can only receive medical treatment outside the Meridian Gate Square.

"Uncle Zhang, please hurry up..."

Li Shu supported, no, the word "dragged" would be more appropriate, the seventy-year-old doctor Zhang from outside the square to come over to check Zhu Ping'an's injuries.

Doctor Zhang is over seventy years old. His hair, eyebrows and beard are all white, but he is energetic and has a youthful face. He does not look like a man in his seventies at all.

"Fifth girl, slow down. Let me catch my breath." Doctor Zhang was so out of breath after being dragged by Li Shu that he couldn't even take a break.

Li Shu twitched her ears and pretended not to hear anything. She continued to drag Doctor Zhang forward. In one breath, she dragged Doctor Zhang to Zhu Ping'an's couch. She anxiously snatched the medicine box from the medicine boy behind her, stuffed it into Doctor Zhang, and urged him to check Zhu Ping'an's injury.

"You little girl are really going to kill me..." Doctor Zhang took the medicine box with a wry smile.

"Sister Li is just too concerned. If I have offended you, please forgive me, old doctor." Zhu Ping'an lay on the couch and bowed to Doctor Zhang.

"Don't be polite with me, kid. I watched Li Shu grow up. Not to mention that I didn't offend you, even if I did, I have to forgive you. Brother Zhu, Sister Li, you two young couple..." Doctor Zhang stroked his beard and smiled. His eyes were full of doting when he looked at Li Shu. Li Shu grew up under his care. In his eyes, she was like his granddaughter. Seeing Li Shu and Zhu Ping'an loving and happy, he was happy from the bottom of his heart.

"Uncle Zhang, it's already this late and you're still in the mood to make fun of us. You'd better hurry up and see Brother Zhu's wound." Li Shu was half shy and half anxious. She stamped her feet and urged Doctor Zhang to see Zhu Ping'an's wound quickly.

"Okay, okay, okay." Doctor Zhang smiled and took out medicinal wine, bamboo knife, pulse pillow and a set of gold needles from the medicine box and began to check Zhu Ping'an's injuries.

After checking the external injuries, Doctor Zhang placed the pulse pillow under Zhu Ping'an's wrist, placed his fingers on Zhu Ping'an's wrist artery, and began to take his pulse.

"Uncle Zhang, is Brother Zhu seriously injured?" Li Shu asked with concern. Before Doctor Zhang could speak, she continued, "I know that you have a thousand-year-old mountain ginseng in your collection. You can't keep it secret at this time."

When Doctor Zhang heard that Li Shu was planning to take his precious thousand-year-old mountain ginseng, he quickly put down Zhu Ping'an's arm, looked up at Li Shu, and shook his head in defense, saying, "No, no, it would be a waste if I gave my precious mountain ginseng to this kid."

What

Is it a waste to give the thousand-year-old ginseng to my brother-in-law

Why would it be a waste to give it to my uncle, unless he is injured...

When the chubby little maid Hua'er heard what Doctor Zhang said, she was struck by lightning. With her strange way of thinking, she immediately thought of the worst outcome. Her chubby little face turned pale with fright, and tears as big as beans instantly formed from her eye sockets, rolling around in her eye sockets and looking like they were about to flow out.

However, she was the only one who had the same brain circuit as the maid Hua'er. Li Shu and Qin'er did not have the same brain circuit as Hua'er. They all breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Zhang Taiyi said. The injury did not require the thousand-year-old mountain ginseng, which meant that Zhu Ping'an's injury was not very serious.

"How is it a waste? What are you talking about! My brother Zhu uses your old mountain ginseng, which is the blessing that the old mountain ginseng has cultivated for thousands of years." Li Shu pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Why not waste it? This kid will be full of life in less than half a month. Why would he need my thousand-year-old ginseng? I have to keep my treasure to save his life." Doctor Zhang shook his head like a rattle.

ha

In less than half a month, my son-in-law will be alive and kicking?!

The little maid Baozi had just started to cry when she heard what Doctor Zhang said. In an instant, her little face broke into a smile with bubbles of snot coming out. Qin'er rolled her eyes in disgust.

Hearing Doctor Zhang say that Zhu Ping'an would be alive and kicking in less than half a month, Li Shu finally smiled, but still puffed up her cheeks and said to Doctor Zhang, "You stingy guy, you have a lot of eyebrows and beard, but you are still so stingy. It's just a thousand-year-old wild ginseng, but you treat it like a treasure. I'll find a basket of thousand-year-old wild ginseng tomorrow to see if you are jealous."

"Haha, a whole basket of them. Do you think the thousand-year-old wild ginseng is radish or cabbage? Even if you get just one, you still have to rely on luck." Doctor Zhang said with a smile, stroking his beard.

"Okay, Uncle Zhang, please treat Brother Zhu's injury quickly." Li Shu urged, "When Brother Zhu recovers, I will steal the jar of good wine that my father treasured and give it to you."

"Okay, okay, with what you said, I guarantee that within ten days, I will give you a lively and energetic brother Zhu." Doctor Zhang said with a smile.

"Really?" Li Shu's eyes lit up.

"Of course it's true. The beating with a stick in the court is very particular. It looks like the wound is serious with flesh and blood flying everywhere, but in fact, only the surface is injured. The inside is fine, the tendons and bones are fine, and there are no internal injuries. Plus, with my help, ten days will be enough." Doctor Zhang explained with a smile, stroking his beard.
