Chapter 931 Emperor Tian pays off his hard work
Jiayin narrowed her eyes with a smile and responded, "Yes, I heard what my adoptive father said. I originally thought that the third brother and Liu Yang were about to get married. Unexpectedly, the fourth brother actually took the lead and took his sister-in-law and nephew directly. came back.
“Uncle Huang will issue an imperial edict today to welcome the envoy to Beijing. It is estimated that by the time the news is sent to Quanzhou, everyone will have finished drinking the wedding wine of Third Brother and Brother Liu Yang, and they will come by boat by then!”
Jiaren was also happy and said with a smile, "On the Broken Gold Beach side, we need to clean up the two houses. On the Earl's Mansion side, I also asked your sister-in-law to clean up a courtyard in case they occasionally stay in the city."
Jiayin quickly waved his hand, "These are all trivial matters. I can arrange them. Brother, you take the exam first. When the fleet comes to Beijing, you will also be named on the gold list. That will be even better."
"Well, we'll leave the house to you when we enter the examination room the day after tomorrow." Jiaren didn't fight, her sister had been the housekeeper for several years, so this trivial matter was easy for her.
While he was talking, Ye Shan actually walked in from outside the house, and the three Jiaren brothers and sisters were all surprised.
Jiaren asked, "Uncle Shan, but the Marquis has something to give you?"
Ye Shan saluted and said, "Young Master, the Marquis is on the carriage outside the door and wants to take the princess back to Suijintan. Doctor Zhang has succeeded in figuring out the medicine for the wound. He sent someone to find the Marquis to report the good news."
“Seriously?” Jiayin was extremely happy.
In the past two years, Doctor Zhang had been hiding in the courtyard behind the village and almost became a pervert.
He was originally competing with Jiayin, his apprentice, and was not convinced by the same medicine. Why was the medicine prepared by his apprentice better than his own?
Later on, the old man gradually figured out the clue and guessed that the young apprentice had a good source of medicinal materials.
Unfortunately, there are not many good medicinal materials, so we cannot make large quantities of them.
So, he changed his approach and specifically thought about how to use ordinary medicinal materials to brew good medicine for injuries.
Even though the efficacy of the medicine is still not as good as that of the apprentice, it is more suitable for use in the army because of the large quantity.
For this reason, Lao Hei and the others almost broke their legs in the past two years, and they had to toss the old man with medicinal materials from various places.
The emperor paid off his hard work, and the old man finally succeeded!
Jiayin said hello to his brothers, took Mu Jue and Shui Ling Shuiyun with him, and hurried out to meet his adoptive father and went back to Suijintan.
In the small courtyard at the back of the village, Doctor Zhang crossed his legs and sat on a lounge chair under the eaves of the corridor, humming a tune comfortably.
Seeing Mr. Hou and Jiayin coming in, he raised his chin. Naturally, the medicine boy who followed him helped introduce them.
“Marquis, Princess, the old man’s prescription was successful. After the third batch of experiments, the hemostatic effect was excellent, and the wound healed in two days.
“One or two ounces of medicinal powder costs about 200 yuan. The medicinal materials are easy to obtain and easy to boil.”
Jiayin immediately cheered happily, "Master, you are so awesome! The cost has been reduced to such a low level? Everyone in the Northern Expeditionary Army can afford it!"
She hurriedly ran to the eaves of the verandah and poured tea for the master in a very stupid way. She gathered around and coaxed the old man, "If we regain Jiangbei this year, at least half of the credit will be given to the master."
The corners of Dr. Zhang's lips were grinning almost to the base of his ears. He was extremely proud, but he still remembered a few words of humility.
"You girl, don't fool me! To recapture Jiangbei, we have to rely on the soldiers to fight with swords and guns. I just thought about some wound medicine, but it's of no use."
By this time, the Marquis had already inspected the lambs and rabbits whose wounds had healed, and his face was also full of joy.
He stepped forward and solemnly saluted and thanked, "The medicine is the confidence and backing of the Northern Expedition. On behalf of all the soldiers of the Northern Expedition, I thank the miracle doctor for his life-saving grace."
Having said that, he will bow down to the end.
Shenji Zhang stood up quickly and gave him a hand. "Okay, Mr. Ye, we've known each other for so many years, so don't be polite." Doctor Zhang asked Mr. Hou to sit down, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said, "I'm an old man, and logically I don't want to be like this. toss.
“But what you are doing is a major matter for the country and the people. I only have so much ability to help you, so naturally I can’t watch.
"What's more, not to mention others, even this girl Fu Niu'er is doing her best to collect food and medicine for the Northern Expedition. As a master, I can't be compared to her.
“If you want to thank me, take Jiangbei back as soon as possible, so that I can go back to my hometown to have a look before I even kick my feet.”
"I will definitely live up to my mission." The Marquis held his hands and solemnly agreed.
It is the wish of all the elderly to return to their roots after falling leaves.
Even though Jiangnan is very prosperous now, the people are basically not hungry and their life is good.
But when I dream back at midnight, I don’t know how many people are thinking about their hometown, the home where they were born and raised.
Even people like Doctor Zhang who have been wandering for most of their lives are no exception.
Jiayin persuaded with a smile, "Master, even if my adoptive father takes back Jiangbei this year, I can't let you go.
“You don’t know, right? My fourth brother and fifth brother have returned from overseas, and my fourth brother has even married a queen from a foreign country. From now on, from Xindu to Quanzhou, and then to a foreign country, our family will have to move back and forth frequently.
“I plan to go to Quanzhou to see the sea, and then go to overseas countries to see new things. You are my master, so of course you have to go with me.
“Otherwise, you have finally accepted such a smart and filial apprentice. What if you are bullied by others?
“I’m still waiting for my master to protect me. No matter how powerful anyone is in this world, I can’t help my master spreading the powder!”
Doctor Zhang was so coaxed by his young apprentice that he beamed with joy. He couldn't help but be excited and asked, "Jia Xi and Jia An are back? These two brats are really worrying. It would be nice to come back. I didn't know they were overseas. Did you bring back any novel herbs?"
"I must have brought them with me. My fourth and fifth brothers are smart and will never miss something good when they see it. Besides, my fourth sister-in-law is the queen. She is a local and knows it better than anyone else." Jiayin knew the old man too well. It was too easy to persuade him.
“Let’s take a step back and say, even if my brother and the others didn’t bring anything good, we can go and see for ourselves! The world is big, and we Tianwu only occupy a small part of it. There are a lot of good things outside!”
"That's true," Divine Doctor Zhang nodded and responded, "When Jiaxi and the others come back, I'll ask them carefully. Why should I go out and have a look while I can still move my legs?"
"That will happen in the future, so don't worry now. My brother and the others will probably be back in another half month!" Jiayin smiled and clapped her hands, "My master is thinking about the success of the new medicine, so we have to hold a celebration banquet today no matter what.
“Master, you have a rest first. I will go to the old house to prepare a banquet. Let’s celebrate at home tonight. I will personally cook some good dishes for the master and boil a pot of good wine!”
“Sure, go ahead and do it! Master is waiting to enjoy the blessing!” Doctor Zhang waved his hand, the corner of his mouth raised and never moved down.
He has been wandering for most of his life and has never left since he met the Li family.
In fact, it is for the human touch of the Li family and for the human fireworks of Broken Gold Beach.
Jiayue Bianbing took Mu Jue and Shuiling Shuiyun out, while the Marquis stayed behind to discuss with the old man the subsequent mass production of medicinal powder.
“Shui Ling and Shui Yun are going with me to hold a banquet. Brother Mu, could you please go into the city and inform my second uncle, Mr. Wen and my eldest brother so that they can all come back for dinner in the evening.
“My master loves to be lively, and it’s been a long time since we all got together.”
Jiayin was planning the dishes and gave Mu Jue several tasks.
