"My lord, please calm down. If I were an imperial doctor, I wouldn't be able to tolerate a country doctor showing off in front of me." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Please calm down, I won't be angry with them."
"Xilaile, you have a big heart." Prince Jing nodded in approval, "It would be great if those slaves were like you."
"It's the prince." Xiang Nan smiled awkwardly, why did this sound so awkward.
"Your Majesty, I came today because I have something else to ask you." He then smiled again.
"Say, what's the matter?" The prince nodded.
"It's like this, you know my apprentice Defu. This kid is good. In terms of medical skills, he also has my seven-seventh success. In terms of fame, he is well-known in the capital. In terms of temperament, he is also down-to-earth, steady and diligent..." Xiang Nan smiled.
"Xilaile, you praise your apprentice so much, why do you think you are trying to protect your match?" Prince Jing said amusedly.
"My lord, you are really wise." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "To be honest, my apprentice fell in love at first sight with your maid Ruixin.
I am his master and have raised him as a son since he was a child. I understand his thoughts, so I will help him talk about it today. If you think these two children are suitable, go ahead and help them. "
"Hahahaha..." Prince Jing laughed when he heard this, "This kid, Defu'er, is pretty good. She's smart and has extraordinary medical skills. I think she can do it. However, I have to ask Ruixin to see if she can do it." What do you mean?"
"Yes, it should be." Xiang Nan nodded, "I have long heard that Prince Jing's family is loyal and kind, and he is the most kind to his servants. Now that I see him, it is indeed extraordinary."
Prince Jing was naturally very happy when he heard what he said.
He then ordered someone to summon Ruixin to explain Xiang Nan's entrustment.
When Ruixin heard this, his face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, but he still nodded happily.
Although she was Gege's personal maid in the palace, not only had a monthly salary, but also had no worries about food and clothing, but she was still a servant after all, serving others.
In comparison, marrying Defu, I dare not say that I am rich and powerful. But Defu has skills and can cure diseases, and he will never die of hunger. Moreover, she and Defu were in love and had a good relationship with each other.
"Okay, since that's the case, it's settled." Upon seeing this, Prince Jing laughed.
"Okay, I'll bring Defu right away to formally propose marriage." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
…
After returning, Xiang Nan told Defu, Hu Suhua, Sai Xishi and others about the matter.
"Oh, is it true, Master? That's great!" After hearing this, Defu fainted with joy.
He always dreamed of marrying Ruixin, but he never found the opportunity. Now I can finally realize my dream.
"Old man, why don't you say hello to me? I still want to tell Yu'er to Defu." Hu Suhua complained.
She doesn't know Ruixin, but in her opinion, Defu and Yu'er are a perfect match. The two grew up together as childhood sweethearts and were supposed to be a couple.
"That's okay, let Yu'er be a little girl and we'll get married." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "Anyway, Defu is as kind as me, and I guarantee that a bowl of water will be balanced."
Hearing what he said, Hu Suhua and Sai Xishi both glared at him.
…
Xiang Nan then asked the matchmaker to formally propose marriage to Ruixin's house.
Rockchip is just like Xi Ren in "A Dream of Red Mansions", his family is from the capital. Because she was poor, she was sold into the palace as a slave at the age of ten.
Ruixin is smart and capable, and she became Gege's personal maid at the age of thirteen. After having the monthly payment, the family's life has become better, and it has gradually eased over the past few years.
When they heard that the eldest disciple of the miracle doctor proposed marriage to their daughter, they naturally agreed.
If a daughter marries such a person, she will not have to worry about food and clothing in the future. After all, craftsmen cannot starve to death in lean years. Telford's master is a miracle doctor. Even if he only learns 10% of it, it is still an incredible skill.
After proposing the marriage, the decision is made. After the decision is made, the date of marriage will be chosen. Everything will happen at the fastest pace.
Because Xiang Nan was worried about long nights and many dreams, he wanted to leave the capital as early as possible.
…
While preparing for Defu's wedding, Sai Xishi also gave birth to a daughter safely.
"How could it be a girl, not a boy?" Hu Suhua and Sai Xishi were both a little surprised.
"When the pulse was taken, it was a girl. I was afraid of affecting your mood, so I said it was a boy." Xiang Nan explained, "Actually, boys and girls are the same, they are all from the blood of our old Xi family. Once they are well trained, they will become pillars of the country in the future."
"I thought he was just a kid." Sai Xishi was not as optimistic as he was.
At that time, the concept of favoring boys over girls was still quite strong. In addition, Xiang Nan was old and did not have a son yet, so she was naturally anxious and wanted to have a son to carry on the family line for Xiang Nan.
But she didn't expect that after ten months of pregnancy, she would give birth to a daughter, which made her a little unhappy.
"Hey, a daughter is better. A daughter is my parents' little cotton-padded jacket." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Besides, we are still young and it's not like we won't be able to have children in the future, so why bother."
"Brother Xi, are you really not angry?" Sai Xishi couldn't help but asked in surprise when he saw what he said.
"Don't be angry." Xiang Nan smiled, "Boys and girls are the same. As long as they are well educated, they are all talents."
Seeing him say this, Sai Xishi felt better.
Because her daughter was born in June, Xiang Nan named her Xi Banxia after consideration.
Pinellia ternata is a traditional Chinese medicinal material that has the effect of reducing adverse reactions. The so-called reducing the negative energy refers to lowering the negative energy.
Xiang Nan hopes that his daughter will grow up against the odds and turn danger into safety in this troubled world.
…
After Banxia was born, with Xiang Nan's medical protection and the concerted efforts of her family, Sai Xishi's confinement went smoothly, and Banxia also successfully survived the full moon. This was undoubtedly a good thing in the late Qing Dynasty when the child mortality rate was alarming.
After the full moon of Banxia, Xiang Nan took the time to hold a wedding for Defu and marry Ruixin.
The wedding was quite lively.
On the one hand, the reputation of Miracle Doctor Xiang Nan is really loud, and he is also a popular person around Prince Jing. No one in the capital is allowed to give him three cents of noodles except for those red-eyed imperial doctors.
On the one hand, Defu has been practicing medicine for more than a year and has received countless lives. He has collected dozens of dollars just for the plaques. With his reputation, he doesn't have to worry about having food to eat.
On the one hand, Ruixin is a maid from the palace after all. When she got married this time, Prince Jing gave her a generous gift as if he were marrying his daughter. Naturally, the others were not far behind.
So I came to celebrate, and there were nearly fifty tables for the banquet alone, and I received nearly ten thousand taels in betrothal gifts, which can be said to be a huge profit.
After Ruixin got married, the next day, Xiang Nan went to Prince Jing's Mansion again, "Your Majesty, in a few days, it will be the anniversary of my father's death. I want to take the children back to worship their ancestors and let him see me wearing yellow clothes." Looks like a mandarin jacket.”
"It should be." Prince Jing nodded as soon as he heard this.
The so-called wealth does not return to its hometown, just like walking at night in brocade clothes. Xiang Nan has achieved such great achievements in the capital, so he should go back to pay homage to his ancestors and let his ancestors see it.
