When Lu Zheng got on the carriage, she saw Xiao Qi taking a nap leaning on the pillow on the carriage. Lu Zheng got closer and looked at his face, then waved to Xiao Fuzi to indicate that nothing happened.
The carriage left slowly. When Lu Zheng got out of the carriage, she realized that Changping was missing. The man driving the carriage was an unfamiliar guard. She didn't care and went back to her yard and took a nice nap.
But at this time, what awaited Wu Wei at the Wu family in the east of the city was a merciless beating. As soon as Wu Weigang came home, he saw his father sitting in the hall with his eyes closed and concentrating. He shook his legs and knelt down with a thud. .
"Dad, I, I, I..."
The Wu sisters who were following behind looked at each other and were stunned. What is this little brother doing?
"Brother, what are you doing? I just went out to play for a while. Mom agreed to it. Get up quickly, your knees are going to hurt." The eldest daughter of the Wu family felt most sorry for her younger brother. After speaking, she stepped forward to help him. .
Blacksmith Wu, who was sitting at the top, opened his eyes. He has been forging iron all year round, his eyes are determined, his body is strong, and his arm strength is amazing. He is often said to be born with supernatural powers.
Wu Wei met his father's gaze and felt a thump in his heart. His father... already knew.
"You two won't be out for a long time. Go back to your husband's house." Blacksmith Wu said to his two daughters. The eldest daughter of the Wu family and the second daughter are already married. Today they came home specifically to take Wu Wei out for fun.
"We are not in a hurry..." As soon as the second girl of the Wu family opened her mouth, she was pulled by the eldest girl of the Wu family.
"Let's go to the backyard and tell mother and then go back." The eldest girl of the Wu family said.
Wu Yi is a rare foundry, but he is more accustomed to being called Blacksmith Wu. Although he is a blacksmith, his family wealth is higher than that of ordinary people, and his house in Dongcheng is second-class.
There were many sons in the family, and Wu Tiejiang was afraid that his youngest son would be spoiled, so Wu Wei moved into the front yard after he was five years old.
"Dad, I, I..." Seeing his two sisters leaving, Wu Wei felt even more panicked and didn't know what to say about today's events.
Blacksmith Wu, who was sitting at the top, first rolled up one of his sleeves and said calmly: "Your sisters don't know about it. Is it possible that you don't know about your father's past too?"
Wu Wei's heart trembled. Although the Wu family had many daughters, Wu Yi loved his daughters. He didn't mention the difficult things he had encountered in the past to his daughters, but because Wu Wei was a boy, he mentioned them a few times when he was drunk. Second-rate.
He really shouldn't be willful today. His father is where he is today all because of his old master.
"If you want to learn a craft from me, you don't have to study. But look at how thin you are, unable to lift your shoulders or carry it with your hands."
The Wu family has been a blacksmith for several generations, and it was Wu Yi who became famous. However, Wu Wei was so thin that he struggled to carry a bucket of water, so how could he lift a hammer?
As he spoke, Blacksmith Wu rolled up the other cuff. He looked straight at his unsatisfied son and finally asked, "Do you know who you offended today?"
Wu Wei quickly explained, "I didn't, I'm not... I, I just accidentally fell. The eldest sister and the second sister saw it wrong..."
"How dare you lie!" Blacksmith Wu suddenly interrupted him with a loud shout.
He pointed at Wu Wei and said angrily, "Is this the first time? Last month you said you were feeling unwell and coaxed your mother to stay in bed for two days, right?"
Wu Wei trembled and looked at his angry father timidly, "I was wrong, I never dare to..."
"If you make a mistake, you should be punished, so that you can remember it for a long time."
After saying that, Blacksmith Wu stood up and took the feather duster from the shelf and whipped Wu Wei until he cried like a ghost and howled like a wolf.
"Ah! I was wrong, I was really wrong..."
"I don't dare anymore!"
"Dad, stop hitting me, mother... mother——"
Blacksmith Wu hit Wu Wei with another feather duster, "I've already asked someone to close the door to the backyard. There's no point in calling your mother. Get up and go to the palace to apologize!"
Lingyang Palace.
Lu Zheng, who had just woken up from her nap, was invited to Xiao Qi's yard by Xiao Fuzi. When she arrived at the pavilion, she paused and turned to look at Wu Wei, who had been beaten miserably by her father.
"You...are here to get an acupuncture?"
Wu Wei waved his hand quickly, "I, I'm here to apologize."
"It's my fault today. I made my sister misunderstand my sister. Please forgive me." Wu Wei looked younger than Xiao Qi and had a pretty face. Lu Zheng couldn't ridicule him now that he looked miserable.
"It's a small matter, it just took up a little time." After Lu Zheng finished speaking, she sat down at the table and was handed a plate of preserves in front of her. In her eyes, the unpleasantness that happened today was not as important as the preserves in front of her.
Blacksmith Wu had been standing in the pavilion. When he saw Xiao Qi's movements, he took a step forward and bowed: "It's all a naughty dog. He bumped into the girl today. It's because I didn't teach him well."
Lu Zheng raised his eyes to look at the speaker and then turned to Xiao Qi. The latter was just sitting and drinking tea and had no intention of getting involved.
"Does the girl have a weapon to fight? I will do my best to forge it for the girl."
He also knows how to forge weapons, and neither does anyone else. He should forge a weapon specifically to make amends... okay?
weapon? Lu Zheng put a candied fruit in her mouth, it was so sweet.
"Weapons... we won't be using them for the time being, but I'm in a hurry when I go out and I don't have a few knives with me. Is that okay?"
Blacksmith Wu nodded hurriedly, "Of course, as long as the girl gives me a sketch, she can also describe it."
Lu Zheng took the brochure and charcoal pen from Xiao Qi's hand, and drew on the brochure while eating candied fruits, and explained a few words to Blacksmith Wu from time to time.
"Okay, that's about it." Lu Zheng tore off the page and handed it to Blacksmith Wu.
"Don't worry, girl, I will forge these knives into the most sophisticated ones for you." Blacksmith Wu has forged similar ones for other doctors, but they are not as high as Lu Zheng's requirements.
Seeing that Xiao Qi had no other instructions, Blacksmith Wu grabbed his son and left.
Lu Zheng turned to look at Xiao Qi, the corners of her lips raised slightly, "I thought you didn't know."
Xiao Qi took the charcoal pen from Lu Zheng's hand and wrote in the booklet: "Blacksmith Wu's skill in forging weapons is ranked among the best in the foundry department."
The reason why Xiao Qi asked Changping to go to the Wu family was not just to ask the young master of the Wu family to apologize, but because Lu Zheng accidentally mentioned it a few days ago that he was in a hurry and didn't bring all the things with him. If he was injured, The patients don’t have anything handy.
He originally wanted to go to Xinjing City to ask the foundry department to make a set of knives for Lu Zheng, but unexpectedly the young master of the Wu family showed up.
Lu Zheng came back to her senses. Xiao Qi was doing this because of what she had said a few days ago. With a smile on her face and a good mood, she said warmly: "Then I'll give you... a few more injections."
Xiao Qi's mouth froze and he looked at Lu Zheng blankly. What kind of words of thanks are these?
Lu Zheng moved closer to him, somewhat mysteriously, "Don't worry, although the effect was a bit slow before, I guarantee that the effect will be very significant this time."
Xiao Fuzi, who had been listening carefully, immediately asked: "Why is the acupuncture method different from the previous one? Does the girl have a new treatment method?"
Lu Zheng turned his head and glanced at Xiao Fuzi, eating the candied fruit in front of him leisurely, "Don't be anxious, you will know in the evening."
