"Miss, what about this?" Mother Li tentatively asked. The lady came to the door in person. Although her words were very cryptic, what she wanted was very simple.
"There's no rush." Mrs. Lin opened her eyes, a cold light appeared in her eyes, and sneered: "How can it be so easy? Let her wait for a few days before talking about it. Just do it to save face." How can it be so easy? When she What it is, it comes when you call it, and it goes away when you wave it.
"But..." Mother Li hesitated. This was something easy to find out. If she found out, it would be a missed opportunity.
"She came from the south and has never been to the capital. She doesn't know who Dr. Min is at all." Mrs. Lin said, confidently. Dr. Min is the head of the Imperial Hospital and has excellent medical skills, but he does not like fame and fortune, so he resigned. After being in seclusion for so many years, he just opened a small medicine shop in an unknown Ping'an town. People who don't know about it would never think that an ordinary doctor was once a famous imperial doctor.
If she hadn't been lucky enough to meet Dr. Min when she was a child, she wouldn't have known it. Even if she had a noble status, it didn't matter. She was the great prefect's wife, Mrs. Xu. Didn't she find out that she was still a hen that couldn't lay eggs in the eyes of others? , I think he was forced to be anxious if he could lower his face and beg in front of her.
That's right, this prefect's wife is not too young. She has nothing to do since she got married. This prefect's wife comes from a wealthy family in the south and manages her own family. She has always set her sights high and has no dust in her eyes. She must be anxious. Please beg her. In front of her, a merchant woman of low origin.
Things are changing, and there are times when you bow your head in front of me. Thinking of this, Ms. Lin suddenly felt that the white eyes and contempt she received before were not worth the pleasure she felt now. It was a scorching hot day in August, but her heart felt as if she had eaten ice. Refreshing and refreshing.
Mother Li looked at her young lady, hesitated to speak, and finally endured it. It would be helpful for the master's career to help Mrs. Xu, the prefect's wife, introduce famous doctors. It's a pity, madam~~·
Alas, in the past few months, the young lady and the old man have been inseparable and respectful to each other. For the sake of the young lady's happiness, she still has to find a way to persuade her. She cannot let the young lady go to the dark side. At least for this matter, instead of inviting Dr. Min, please invite Dr. Xiao. It doesn't matter if you go and take a look. If the master knows about it, he will look at the young lady differently.
"It's almost time for Wan'er to come back!" Mrs. Lin mentioned her baby daughter, her face no longer showed shrewd calculations, only a motherly smile.
Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here! The little maid opened the curtain at the door, and Su Waner came in with a light step, her bright eyes smiling, and she saw her mother's sweet smile.
"Mom, my daughter is back."
"Wan'er is back. You must be tired. Is it hot or not? Mother Li, hurry up and get a bowl of iced white fungus soup for Wan'er to cool off the heat." Mrs. Lin pulled her daughter closer and looked her up and down to make sure everything was fine. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and asked Mother Li to go to the kitchen quickly, so as not to make her baby girl sick from the heat.
"Mom, I'm not hot." Su Waner said. Mrs. Lin took care of Zhou Dao and put an ice basin in the carriage. The carriage was cool and pleasant, but she didn't feel hot at all.
"Mom, I brought you a guest." Su Waner said, and went out in person to bring Xiao Ming, who was standing at the entrance, to her.
"Ouch!" Mrs. Lin stood up in surprise when she saw the person coming.
"Doctor Xiao, please sit down quickly. You girl, you are so stupid. You didn't even say a word when Dr. Xiao came." Mrs. Lin gave her daughter a cautious look.
Su Waner just smiled, she just wanted to give her mother a surprise.
Mrs. Lin asked Xiao Ming to sit down, and then asked Mrs. Li to go to the kitchen to bring iced white fungus soup to eat. Xiao Ming was no worse than Su Waner.
"You're welcome, madam. I'm here for a sudden visit, so I don't mind interrupting you." Xiao Ming said politely.
"Call Auntie, don't give up your birth name." Ms. Lin said quickly. She really liked the little girl in front of her. Not only was she good at medicine, but she was also cute. Because of her, the fruit wine she bought from Xiao Ming was so popular. She made a lot of money in just a few months, God of Wealth!
Ginseng pills and snowy mud are the best things. She sent the ginseng pills back to the capital to honor her parents-in-law. Several elderly people got better after eating them. Her stern mother-in-law wrote an unprecedented letter to praise her filial piety. The Yan Ni is even worse. My daughter is getting slimmer day by day, and her skin is fairer and more moist than before she got sick. She looks like a shelled egg. Even after she used the Snow Ni, her complexion became whiter and rosier.
Whether it was for fruit wine, ginseng pills or snowy mud, she had to have a good relationship with Xiao Ming.
After Mrs. Lin's reception was over, she asked her daughter to lead Xiao Ming back to the courtyard and let the two little girls talk properly. With her as an elder here, they couldn't let go, so it was better to leave them alone.
Mother Li looked at Su Wan'er and Xiao Ming's leaving figures, her heart moved, and she tried to ask: "Madam, why don't you ask Dr. Xiao to come out for an interview?" She did not dare to say too much for fear of arousing the resentment of her young lady.
"You mean to ask Xiao Ming to treat her?" Mrs. Lin felt a little conflicted and reluctant. She didn't want her to succeed so easily.
"Yes, the old slave is thinking that Dr. Xiao is young and has not seen much of the world. He cannot deal with such a stubborn disease. When the time comes, he will introduce her to Dr. Min." After so many years of seeking medical advice, he has not been able to get what he asked for. I also know that this disease is incurable.
"Yes." Mrs. Lin nodded. This might not be a bad idea. After hiring a doctor for her, she would not have broken her trust, and she would be able to save her face. When Xiao Ming couldn't cure her, she would treat Dr. Min. Please come out, Mrs. Xu can only be grateful to her.
"The chrysanthemum tea she sent last time tasted good. Remember to take back the rest when you go next time." Mrs. Lin ordered. The chrysanthemum tea sent by Xiao Ming's family tasted really good. The twenty packets of su The master took half of it and gave the rest to the families of his friends. She shared the remaining packets with her son and daughter and drank them. Now that they are gone, her son begs her for tea every day.
"Take some back and send some to the capital, and keep the rest in the shop to sell, as well as this fruit wine. We will order another thousand jars this year. We will give part of the order money first. I heard that the Kong family also intends to purchase fruit wine. We You have to get ahead of them." When doing business, Lin likes to be the first to eat crabs. Only by being discerning and seizing the opportunity can he monopolize the market.
Fortunately, she had a well-intentioned idea and purchased Xiao Ming's fruit wine. In just two months, the profit from the fruit wine was equivalent to the annual income of all her properties.
With success ahead of her, Mrs. Lin will not give up such a good source of income. Even if the young master of the Kong family joins in to get a share of the pie, she will still want to protect her share from being grabbed by others.
After having lunch at Su's house, Xiao Ming said goodbye and refused the beauty Su Waner's repeated attempts to stay. Seeing that she couldn't stay, Mrs. Lin had no choice but to order the coachman to send Xiao Ming back, and asked Mother Li to accompany her, and prepared another party. The carriage's gifts included a few fashionable jewelry, palace flowers, several bolts of the latest fabrics shipped from the capital, and half a carriage of ice specially loaded for Xiao Ming.
In the hot summer, ice is a precious commodity, and only wealthy merchants and wealthy families can afford it. The gift Lin prepared for Xiao Ming was really a lot of thought.
Xiao Ming looked at the cart full of gifts and was speechless for a long time. This was why she didn't want to move around.
