Li Yanqing hurried back to the mansion, and the butler Uncle Shan greeted him, "I have kept Dr. Jiang's famous man. Do the official family want to see him?"

"Where is he?"

"Waiting in the guest hall!"

Li Yanqing quickly walked to the guest hall again, and saw an old man with a long hair and a young face sitting in the hall drinking tea.

This old man is the most famous doctor in Jiayu County, named Jiang Du. He is nearly 80 years old this year. This is not the first time he has come to the county magistrate's residence. Last autumn, he came to the mansion to take the pulse of Cao Yun and Sisi and prescribed a few medicines to improve their health. Unexpectedly, the effect will appear after only a few months.

Li Yanqing walked up to the hall and bowed and smiled, "Thank you for your hard work, famous doctor in Jiang!"

Jiang Du quickly stood up and bowed, "Small people will meet the county lord!"

"Please sit down!"

Li Yanqing asked him to sit down and asked the maid to serve tea. He asked with concern: "My wife, she is really."

Jiang Du nodded with a smile, "I have already diagnosed the happy pulse countless times. She is a typical happy pulse. Congratulations to the county lord."

"That's the credit of Dr. Jiang! If there were no medicine prescribed by the doctor, how could my wife become pregnant in just a few months? Please give me a gift."

Li Yanqing stood up and bowed, and Jiang Du waved his hand quickly, "The common people cannot be the courtesy of the county lord. This is my duty. Please don't take it to heart."

"I wonder how many months she should be?"

"From common sense, she should be about two months. The county magistrate should pay attention. In the past few months, be careful of miscarriage. In addition, the wife should try not to take a boat or a train during the past two months. Don't be tired. It is enough to take more than a thousand steps in the mansion every day. Be careful to rest more than a thousand steps."

"Thank you, sir, I remember."

Jiang Du took out another prescription and handed it to Li Yanqing, and said with a smile: "This is a prescription I prescribe. Taking it every day is very beneficial to pregnant women."

Li Yanqing took the prescription and hesitated and asked, "I have a concubine. She has been with me for several years, but she has never been pregnant. Did the sir take her pulse?"

"It's Mrs. Guo! Her condition is really not very good, and her roots are a little weaker. Frankly speaking, it is difficult for her to get pregnant with her physique, and even if she is pregnant, she may have a difficult childbirth. Although the words are a bit harsh, this is the truth. I believe the county lord has also seen other doctors and should know it."

Li Yanqing nodded silently. He remembered Zhao Jici's diagnosis. It seemed that Sisi was destined to have no children.

After seeing off Dr. Jiang, Li Yanqing came to the back house. As soon as he walked into Cao Yun's yard, he heard the sound of his wife Cao Yun's retching from the room. He hurried into the room and saw Cao Yun squatting beside a wooden basin, covering his chest and retching. Her close-fitting little maid was gently pounding her back. Cao Yun waved his hand, "Don't knock, help me sit up."

Li Yanqing moved faster and hurriedly stepped forward to support his wife.

"When will your husband come back?" Cao Yun felt that the person who helped him was not a maid, but a husband.

"I just rushed back, and Xu Wu's little lady ran to tell me."

"I didn't let her go. It must be Sisi who asked her to go. I'm sorry, it affected my husband and colleagues' gathering."

"What is this? If there is a happy event at home, I can still drink it?" Li Yanqing helped her sit down and smiled.

Cao Yun's hair was a little messy and his face was pale. She leaned her head against her husband's shoulder, closed her eyes and calmed down for a while before sighing: "I want to vomit but can't, so I just retching like this. When will it end?"

"It should be cured in three months. Dr. Jiang said that you are about two months pregnant now, and you will last for another month."

"Hey! It will be another month of pain."

Cao Yun smiled again, "But I am very happy to think of having a child in my belly, no matter how painful it is."

"That's right. If you are happy, the child in your belly will be happy. If you are sad, he will be sad."

Cao Yun nodded, "I hope he is a little boy!"

"Xiaolang, the little lady is the same, I like it all, I have to think about what name to give them?"

Cao Yunyan smiled, "Husband is too impatient! And grandpa said that naming is his business, so don't worry, husband, I want to take a break, go to the study to write two letters to grandpa and my parents."

"Abide by the orders for your husband!"

Li Yanqing helped his wife lie down, covered her with a quilt, then got up and went to the study room.

At night, Li Yanqing had already written two letters from home, and was asked to be taken back to the capital early tomorrow morning.

The express delivery industry in the Song Dynasty was very developed, both in public and private, and was officially called Yidu. At the same time, there were also big merchants specializing in freight transportation who started similar delivery services, called delivery shops, which specialize in delivering documents and important items to people. If you need to speed up, you can use the urgent delivery to deliver the money within 300 miles. However, the fastest one was the urgent delivery of the gold-shaped card, which was only available for official Yidu delivery, and is generally used for military confidential matters or amnesty books.

For example, Yue Fei was urged to order the commander to the twelve gold medals, which did not mean that the emperor took out the twelve gold medals, but pointed out that the emperor's edict used the twelve gold medals to hand over the twelve gold medals. The sealing tube said in gold words that "the words in front of the imperial court must not enter the shop". Such documents cannot be stopped at the delivery shop. When they are about to arrive at the post office, they are ringing at the door when the people in the post office heard the ringtone, waiting at the door, like running a relay race, ringing the bells all the way, passing like flying lightning, pedestrians are looking away from the road, day and night, traveling 500 miles a day.

The delivery shop used by Li Yanqing is called Yida delivery shop. Its headquarters is in Beijing. Its main business is also engaged in shipping industry, called Yida Freight Operation, and it also operates express delivery documents. It has branches in various prefectures and prefectures. Li Yanqing entrusted Baoyanzhai to avoid rent and used an official room to exempt Yida Freight Operation from the rent, which allowed Yida Freight Operation to open a branch that operates express delivery in Jiayu County.

Li Yanqing asked Yidafu to open a delivery shop in Jiayu County for a purpose. He wanted to know the news about the capital, so he ordered two newspapers. Although the official also had "Dibao", the "Dibao" had a strong bureaucratic habit and was very slow to deliver to various places. It was a month later that he had arrived in Jiayu County.

Two newspapers ordered by Li Yanqing, one is called "Chaobao". Although the name is "Chaobao", since ordinary people can buy them at newsstands, it obviously has nothing to do with the official, but is issued by the public. "Chaobao" is actually a copy of the content of "Dibao", but it is quickly distributed and is aimed at the public. Fortunately, the court does not pursue it and is deeply loved by all officials and ordinary people.

Another type of newspaper is the Tabby, which is equivalent to the entertainment news today. It often reveals the secret history of the court, famous gossip, etc. that the "Chaobao" does not involve, which is particularly eye-catching and deeply loved by the people. Moreover, the Song Dynasty's tolerance of public opinion has made all dynasties ashamed.

For example, in the fourth year of Daguan, the Tabby created a shocking news. At that time, the people had a lot of opinions about Prime Minister Cai Jing. In order to meet the needs of public opinion, the Tabby published an edict criticizing Cai Jing in the tone of the emperor, accusing that "Cai Jing was obsessed with the eyes and was not smart but listened, and was cunning in public behavior, flattery, incorruptible inside and outside, and unpredictable from the upper and lower levels." It also reported that Cai Jing and his accomplices had been beaten up by the emperor.

This kind of publicly fake imperial edicts has been a serious crime to kill the nine clans in all dynasties, but in the Song Dynasty, there was nothing happening. Moreover, the person involved, Cai Jing, was helpless and did not dare to use his power to investigate the "Taobao", so he had to pay for his own pocket to publish revelations in the "Chaobao" to clarify the fact that he was not punished by the emperor.

Li Yanqing also bought these two newspapers in the capital. He looked through them in the Censorate. Now that he has arrived at the local level, he pays more attention to the news in the capital. He uses the delivery channel to ask his father to send these two newspapers to him every day. The cost of delivering them alone in a year will cost 2,000 guan, but at least he can see the news in the capital three days later.

Needless to say, the family members are also very welcome to the "Taboos" and they have to scramble to read every day, which has become a great fun in the family.

After Li Yanqing finished writing the letter, he remembered that he had not seen the newspaper today. He hurriedly said to Xu Wu Xiaoniang who brought the tea, "Go and ask the butler, is the newspaper here today?"

"Official, the newspaper has arrived, and I saw it at the second wife."

"You go and ask for me, if she finishes reading it, she will bring it to me."

Xu Wu's little lady hurried away. Soon after, she took a copy of the "Minister's Day", "Officials, please read this copy first! The "Taboo" was just taken away by Miss Hu, and Miss Hu said she would send it after reading it."

Li Yanqing had no choice but to take the newspaper and open it. The size and layout of the "Chaobao" and "Taobao" are almost the same as today's newspapers. They are also tofu pieces of articles, with important news marked in rough words and headlines on the front page.
