Chapter 87
Time flies, and the bustle of October surrounds the fire. There are several heavy snowfalls in the winter, which keeps people at home and not leaving.
The Great Xia Kingdom prohibits marriage in the winter months, and it is believed that this month is so solemn and murderous, so it is much colder than usual. All dumplings on the winter solstice are eaten at home, so it is not important to have a party.
But it will be very different when the twelfth lunar month begins.
Because we need to remove the old and new ones, it is the busiest time of the year.
This is a good day for the poor in the year. Many wealthy families in the capital have to give alms to the poor, and the temples also place "Buddha porridge" for those who are hungry and cold.
There are also many customs, such as giving away the God of Wealth, fighting the wild fox, and wasting waste. They were all half-old children from poor families taken by an adult to go everywhere, making a noise and getting some rewards, which is at least an investment for poor families.
It was about to be late that day, a group of people came to the Lantai Clinic, and a thin woman was carrying a lantern and taking several children.
The children shouted loudly: "Master is making a fortune! Congratulations to you, young people!"
The woman hurriedly stopped and said, "Don't look at what this place is?! I shouted nonsense! If this place doesn't make a fortune, I'll talk about benevolence and kindness."
When the old doctor in front of the door saw it, he knew that Zhao was exhausted, so he came out and said, "You guys are there!"
The woman hurriedly smiled and said, "The little people are here to give money, go in and leave."
Praying for blessings and expelling ghosts in the twelfth lunar month is an old custom. The most common thing is that every family can do it, regardless of the wealth or wealth.
The so-called waste is a poor god. If he is in one family, there will definitely be many places where money is missing and he will not save money all year round.
According to legend, he likes to hide under the bed the most, so every twelfth lunar month, each family would use lights to illuminate the bed to drive away the poor god.
If a family runs out of the bed when it is exhausted, it is a great joy, because the mouse is commonly known as a mouse, and the mouse runs out to indicate that it is exhausted and runs away. With this auspicious omen, this family will give more rewards.
Besides, the group of people were about to enter, Mo Tong went into the inner room to report to Sima Lantai: "Young master, Zhao is here in vain, but do you want them to come in?"
Sima Lantai was reading a book and said, "Don't call in, just give the reward."
Mo Tong was a little surprised because the young master who had killed the jungle fox and sent the God of Wealth to call in. It’s not that Sima Lantai is superstitious, he just doesn’t care about these trivial matters. Why don’t he let him in if he is wasted?
Of course Sima Lantai would not explain, Mo Tong responded and went out, giving more rewards to send the person away.
When he came back, he said, "Young Master, it's getting late, can we go back?"
It is rare that there are no patients today, so you can go back early. Besides, the lady sent someone to give me some advice in the afternoon, saying that she had left the Buddha bean porridge sent from the temple to the young master.
Sima Lantai's eyes fell on a certain word in the medical book. He didn't know what he was thinking, but after a while, he slowly closed the book and stood up.
Mo Tong hurried over to help the young master wear his coat, and the warm fox armpit fur tentacles made him warm. Mo Tong said casually: "I remember that the young master had the same fox fur in his early years, but it was smaller than this one, so I don't know where to go. The wife of the previous son asked, saying that she wanted to give to Master Jiu. Later, Gao Mansion sent one, saying that his family had two pieces in total, and Master Jixing left one, and this one for our Master Jiu."
Sima Lantai has not spoken yet, Mo Tong has been used to it and said to himself: "When talking about Master Jixing, I remember Mr. Su's arrival. He hasn't come to our clinic for many times, probably because he is busy with the New Year."
"You will give her some fruits from the Qiyuan tomorrow," Sima Lantai lowered his eyes and said, "bring another jar of Suhe fragrant wine."
The lights in front of the Chuyao Pavilion were brilliant, and guests arrived in groups of three or three.
The silk and bamboo have already started to play, and they floated outside and were blown intermittently by the wind, which is even more fascinating.
A group of ragged children ran over to the ground, and an old man holding a lantern was coughing and panting, while panting, cursing: "You bastards who are still very wishful! I'm exhausted?!"
The children ignored him and just laughed and ran to the front of Chuyao Pavilion before stopping.
They are also wasting their money and spend some change during the twelfth lunar month.
The nephrite just came out of it, and the group of children snatched up to pay their respects.
Wangyu stopped and said to the old man, "Yu Sandao, are you not dead yet?!"
The old man coughed a few times and said, "Although I have to go back three times a day, I will never be willing to die. If I die, how could I see the Nether Jade Girl!"
Wang Yu shook his head and said, "You are so old and have bad legs and feet. You are still here to do this business. Why not stay at home."
Yu Sandao also walked up to him at this time, coughed and said, "I won't go anywhere else, I must come here."
"You are good," said Wangyu with a smile: "I know you will have money if you stand in front of us."
As he said that, he took out a handful of copper coins and handed them over, and the group of children came up to grab them.
Nephrite twisted back, it was really cold outside.
Two new kids this year couldn't help but wonder, and asked: "Why is his home not wasting it? Isn't this place the most beds?"
"They have a baby! Don't let the photos!" Yu San said as he walked back.
"What baby?" the two children were very curious and stood there to ask.
An older child pointed to the Chuyao Pavilion and said, "Did you see that the brother in red clothes is his baby!"
The two children looked over and saw under the embroidered lanterns and in the shadows of their clothes and temples, Su Haoyi was smiling and chatting with Mr. Wu Ya.
It turned out that Aunt Cai'er loved Su Haoyi, because her nickname was "Little Mouse", she was not allowed to come to Chuya Pavilion to waste her time.
Mr. Wu Ya went on a tour of Jiangnan last month and only returned to the capital, so Su Haoyi said a few more words with him.
Aunt Caier twisted her waist a few days ago, and Youluo tinted two pairs of plasters from somewhere. The paste would have been effective, but she had to rest for a few more days.
These days, Su Haoyi was busy and supported her. She had to stay up until very late every day, and had to take care of Aunt Caier and sleep for her during the day, so she didn't go anywhere.
"Little mouse, please be my teacher. I guarantee that you will become a famous doctor in less than three years." Youlu suddenly appeared and said to Su Haoyi from behind.
Su Haoyi didn't look at him and said, "Don't interfere with my business. If you want to teach others, go and ask others."
"You have seen my methods, no worse than that of Sima Chu," Youluo chased her back: "Do you like to learn things the most? How can you do more useful things in the world than medical skills?"
At this time, Aran happened to pass by and smiled and said, "Haruo, don't trust him, he is not kind."
Su Haoyi patted A Ran's back of his hand and said, "I know."
Youluo was unhappy and fierce Aran said, "Don't mess with me, I'm talking to Hachiro!"
A Ran was not afraid of him and said with a smile: "Everyone said that if you want to learn well, you should sleep with your master first. If you want to take Hachiro as your disciple, do you want to sleep with someone else!"
Youluo was so scared that he hurriedly covered her mouth and said, "Don't you talk nonsense! You just talk so much because I didn't sleep with you!"
