Xiao Ming wrote a new prescription for Mrs. Xu and gave it to Lan Yi. As for how Mrs. Xu would deal with the traitor in the yard, she did not ask.

Mrs. Xu enthusiastically left the meal, and when Xiao Ming left, Mrs. Xu sent many gifts on the pretext of the Mid-Autumn Festival, not mentioning it.

After sending Xiao Ming away with a strong smile, and seeing Lan Ling leading Xiao Ming out of the yard, Mrs. Xu returned to her room with a sullen face and sat down bitterly. It was obvious that her anger was still lingering, attracting the attention of the two girls waiting outside. Don't dare to vent your anger.

Lan Yi quietly followed Mrs. Xu into the inner room, knelt down again, and whispered: "Lan Yi is guilty."

"How could you be so careless and let that bitch take advantage of the situation?" Xu said angrily. How much she trusted Lan Yi, but now she is so disappointed. Fortunately, she found out early, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Lan Yi lowered her head even lower, tears streaming down her face: "Lan Yi is sorry for Madam, and for the trust Madam has placed in this slave."

After all, it was her confidant girl. Mrs. Xu was furious for a while and fined her three months' money before letting her get up.

"Madam, why don't you arrest that girl for interrogation?" Lan Yi suggested, because she was dissatisfied with the fact that the girl had lost three months' monthly payment.

Of course, but when the words came to her lips, Mrs. Xu changed her mind, "No, keep an eye on her carefully to see what she comes into contact with." When spies are beaten, another one will pop up, so it's hard to guard against it. , rather than like this, it is better to keep her.

Although I know that this is Aunt Yan's fault, I can't do anything to her without any evidence. The master also favors her. He will not believe her one-sided words and will be bitten by her in return. Instead of doing this, It's better to keep it. Sooner or later, the truth will be revealed. When the time comes, he will catch it and she will not be allowed to deny it.

"Yes." Lan Yi nodded and accepted the order, feeling resentful in her heart. No matter how kind-hearted she was, she would not be nice to the culprit. She thought that life would be difficult for that little girl in the future.

Mrs. Xu thought for a while and then said: "Come here, I will tell you to do one more thing."

"Yes." Lan Yi took a step forward according to the words, lowered her body and leaned closer to Xu. After hearing Xu's plan, she couldn't help but open her eyes.

"This." Lan Yi opened her eyes wide and asked her to spread the word that Xiao Ming's medical skills were not good. What should she do? What if Xiao Ming knew about it...

"Just go and do it. I will explain it to Xiao Ming when she comes there." Mrs. Xu said impatiently.

"Yes." Lan Yi nodded. She was very clear-minded and understood the master's meaning immediately. With such a reputation spread, if Xiao Ming's medical skills were average and could not cure the madam, then the madam would not Having a child, although it would be detrimental to Xiao Ming's reputation, might make Aunt Yan let down her guard.

I don’t know what methods Mrs. Xu used to deal with Aunt Yan Xiao Ming. At this time, she was letting Uncle Ming drive to the new house.

On the carriage, Wang Yunling looked at the aunt beside her with eyes full of admiration.

"Auntie, how did you discover Mrs. Xu's illness?"

"Experience, accumulated experience over time, careful observation." Xiao Ming replied. She found a trace of suspicion just from Xu's pulse pattern. Xu often drank almond tea containing musky scent. Although it was only a trace amount, it lasted for a long time. She had a unique odor on her body, and she discovered something was wrong by diagnosing her pulse and smelling her nose.

After checking the house on the first floor, I discovered the musk in the red dates and wolfberry.

"Auntie is so amazing." Wang Yunling said excitedly, her eyes full of admiration.

"I'm not very good either." Xiao Ming said, "These are all experiences. If you encounter them more in the future, you will naturally know them." Of course, this requires hard work to study medicine. In ancient times, Shennong tasted all kinds of herbs and practiced them from generation to generation. The "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" was created after several generations of oral and oral traditions. Li Shizhen spent his whole life, experienced and practiced, collected widely, and even tried every herbal medicine personally, and then comprehensively compiled and summarized the Materia Medica in two days. It took nineteen years for the Compendium of Materia Medica to be produced.

Every medical book and work handed down to future generations is the work of its author who has devoted countless efforts and painstaking efforts. It is necessary to carefully observe the patient's symptoms and find out the cause before prescribing the right medicine. For every herbal medicine, you must understand its medicinal properties and effects, and you can even take it personally. try.

"Taste the medicine."

Wang Yunling lowered her head and thought carefully without making a sound. Her aunt had always taught her to write down the medicinal properties, growth, and picking period of each herb. But she had never been like her aunt in order to find out. Put it in your mouth and feel the taste.

Learning medicine is not that simple, and she still has a long way to go to become a doctor.

The new house was not far from the prefect's Yamen. Uncle Ming skillfully drove the car for two streets, turned a corner and arrived at the gate of the new house.

"Girl, we're here." Uncle Ming stopped the carriage before calling Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming poked her head out, and the first thing that caught her eye were two majestic stone lions in front of the door. There was a space for a plaque on the top of the door. I think the plaque had been left alone before. The house was very grand, and it was the door. Xiao Ming was very satisfied with everything.

After entering, I discovered that this was a large house with three entrances, several courtyards, and separate front and back yards. There was also the garden that Xiao Yu mentioned, a rockery terrace, exotic flowers and rare plants, and a large pond. , the koi carps were swimming around inside, and the lotus planted in the pond was very beautiful. The original owner was an elegant man and built a pavilion beside the pond, leaving a large area in front for viewing the scenery.

The house was big. Xiao Ming walked slowly for half an hour before taking a rough look at the house. The furniture and furnishings inside were all newly installed. You could move in with your bags. Xiao Ming was very satisfied. Xiao Han had a good taste. These six thousand Well worth the two bucks.

"Uncle Ming, are the furniture here newly added by us, or left by the original owner." Xiao Ming asked. Judging from the quality of the furniture, it didn't look like it was new.

Uncle Ming and Wang Yunling had been following Xiao Ming. They listened to Xiao Ming's questions and then replied: "It was left by the previous owner."

Xiao Ming nodded and brought furniture. Six thousand taels of silver was a better deal, but he didn't know what the previous owner did.

"The previous owner of this house was a wealthy family in Pingcheng. His son became an official in the capital, so he sold the property and moved his family north. Mrs. Lin introduced us to us after knowing that we wanted to buy a house." Uncle Ming said, if If it weren't for Lin's help, such a good house wouldn't have been their turn.

"Yes." Xiao Ming nodded, and owed Mrs. Lin a big favor.

After looking at the house, Uncle Ming took Xiao Ming to see the two newly purchased shops. One was in a good location on West Street, on the main street, but the area was smaller. The other one was on South Street, with an area It's probably because the place is out of the way and there isn't much traffic.

Both shops are now empty, with the doors closed. The one on South Street has a shop in the front yard and a small yard in the back, where people can live and store goods. It is very convenient, which makes up for the lack of location.

Generally speaking, Xiao Ming is very satisfied with the two shops. Now the shop space needs to be renovated by someone. Xiao Ming thought for a while, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there is no hurry to find someone now. They can only wait until after the Mid-Autumn Festival. .

As for what the shop will be running in the future, Xiao Ming has already made a plan in her mind. In the past, buying a property according to her idea was regarded as an investment, renting out the cloud to collect rent money, but after going out, she had a new idea.
