The Tang Dynasty’s Female Forensic Doctor - Chapter 16
[Chapter 17]
Yanniang said, “Han Langjun is the direct son of the county magistrate of Jinling County. He entered the state school the year before last, and Qin Silang and Zhang Langjun are regular visitors to our embroidery hall.”
Wan Lu suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly asked, “Is that Qin Shilang the direct son of Qin Shangzuo?”
Shangzhu is the subordinate official position of the provincial governor of Suzhou. Although he has no specific duties, the state officials are from the fourth rank, while the county magistrate has only the eighth rank. Whether it is rank or status, it is not a point or two. Dao is a high-ranking official crushing people to death. Even if Qin Shilang really killed Han Langjun, it is difficult to say whether he can be convicted.
“Exactly.” Yanniang rubbed her temples tiredly, and continued to answer Ran Yan’s question, “Han Langjun has no wives and concubines. I heard that there are two personal maids in the family, one is pregnant and will give birth in August. , the other one, never listened to the movement.”
Ran Yan said in her heart that the possibility of contracting the disease will be slightly reduced when she gives birth in August. I hope that this Han Langjun will accumulate some yin and virtue for himself and leave a healthy bloodline.
“God is not biased. When people die, they leave a firework behind their family.” Wan Lu sighed.
Hong Xing raised her eyebrows, and there were still tears in her eyes. She sneered, “That’s a good thing to say, their family is not the only seedling! Qin Shilang doesn’t have such good luck. Marrying the daughter of the Ran family, unfortunately, if this happens, the Ran family is about to retire.”
When Xu Shi learned that he had this intractable disease, Hong Xing had a sense of self-deprecation and self-pity when she spoke, and that kind of inattentiveness made people feel more and more disheartened.
Wan Lu and Ran Yan were nervous, and Wan Lu hurriedly said, “The Ran family, but the Ran family in the east of Suzhou City? Which daughter?”
Hong Xing asked back, “How many Ran families are there in Suzhou City? Isn’t the Ran family only one daughter? Which one else?”
Yanniang paused in her heart, gave Ran Yan a thoughtful look, and changed the topic lightly, “The doctor, I don’t know what condition I’m waiting for…”
“You can use the prescription I prescribed for now. At least it can delay the disease. I will dispense the medicine when I go back. In addition, the towels, teacups, etc. you use should be distinguished from other people. It is best to reduce contact with other people, especially It’s physical contact. Wait patiently for me to dispense the medicine.” Ran Yan solemnly instructed.
Yanniang couldn’t help but look at Ran Yan, she could also vaguely guess Ran Yan’s identity, a noble girl, knowing that her future husband often went to a brothel and got into trouble again, she was still so calm, which is really commendable.
Yanniang raised her hand and slapped it twice, and a servant outside the door came in with a tray and put it on the table.
“Here is five taels and one ingot, a total of fifty taels of silver. As a prepayment, if the slave family is still alive, there will definitely be more remuneration.” Yanniang lifted the red silk on the tray to reveal ten ingots. silver.
Ran Yan wanted more points in her heart, but she always adhered to the principle of doing things, “it is agreed that one person will be treated for 22 taels, half before and half after the event. Now there are three people, and then 30 taels will be charged. Wanlu will receive the money. ”
Wan Lu was still thinking about Qin Shilang’s affairs. Where did she have the mind to manage money, Ran Yan asked for thirty taels, and she took six silver coins on the tray.
“Then I will leave first. If there is anything unusual, just send someone from Zhoujiazhuang to find me.” Ran Yan got up and said.
Yan Niang, Hong Xing and others personally sent Ran Yan out the back door, and ordered the servant to lead them out of the alley before returning.
As soon as the boy left, Wan Lu couldn’t bear it anymore, and said anxiously, “Miss, Qin Shilang has gotten into life and spent a lot of money, and I don’t know if he has contracted these messy diseases. How can Lang Jun take your life away? Entrust it to such a person!”
“Let’s wait and see. Maybe Aye doesn’t know about this. After all, Qin Shilang’s family is good.” Ran Yan has the memory of the original owner, and when he mentioned “Aye”, he felt a little bit of intimacy in his heart.
Aye was the name given to her father in the Tang Dynasty, Ran Yan thought to herself, maybe there was still some affection between the original owner and her father.
“What the lady said is that Lang Jun still loves you, and you are now healed. Why don’t you go home.” Wan Lu grabbed Ran Yan’s arm anxiously, “It’s better than being at the mercy of it now!”
“Will I not make a fuss about my marriage when I go back to the successor?” Ran Yan has always believed in relying on others rather than relying on herself, and if her Aye really values her very much, how could she let the successor push her? , send her to Zhuangzi?
Ran Yan patted Wanlu’s hand and said, “Listen to me, I live in Zhuangzi, and I can come out to make some money for myself. If I come home with no money, I can’t let the successor handle it. Besides, , I don’t want to call her A-Niang.”
Wan Lu had just visited anxious Ran Yan’s marriage, but she forgot to come out this time and made thirty taels of silver. If you save some money, it will be enough for two years.
“Miss…” Wan Lu touched the silver in her sleeve pocket, but hesitated.
“You want to ask me how I can master medical skills, right?” Ran Yan had already thought about her words, and just waited for Wan Lu to speak, “Actually, I don’t know medical skills, but when I was dreaming, someone told me a few ways to save people. .”
Ran Yan looked at Wan Lu’s stunned appearance, and approached her quietly and said, “Otherwise, how could we encounter a patient as soon as we enter the city? And then earn thirty taels so easily?”
These are all coincidences. When Ran Yan said it so deliberately, Wan Lu actually felt that it was arranged by God, and said excitedly, “God is also helping the lady! Don’t you have to worry about marrying Qin Shilang?”
“God won’t help anyone and bully me, so God takes pity on me, how can I rely on God for everything? Qin Shilang’s matter is not a foregone conclusion, let’s find out first.” Ran Yan was also uncertain. , Just arrived in Datang, and suddenly encountered such a thing, she didn’t know where to start, she paused, and then said, “Let’s go shopping first, inquire about this matter, and go back to discuss with Xing Niang.”
When the two arrived on the main street, it was almost noon, so they found a wine shop and planned to buy some necessary things after lunch and then return.
The name of the restaurant is quite poetic. It is called “Yalan She”. It is three wide and two stories high. It has white walls and black tiles, overhanging eaves and bucket arches. The carved ebony doors are engraved with a whole picture of the orchid. It matches the name of the restaurant.
Outside the window on the second floor, the wine flag is fluttering, and the three words “Ya Lan She” are vigorous and powerful, and have the rhyme of the king (Wang Xizhi), which makes this restaurant more and more elegant.
Legend has it that Emperor Taizong respected Wang Xizhi’s calligraphy, so he applied it from top to bottom. I think it was also influenced by the folks, and people preferred Wang Xizhi’s calligraphy.
Stepping into the restaurant, there is a young lady immediately greeted, “Second ladies, please come here.”
Xiao Er was very winking, looked at Ran Yan and Wan Lu’s outfits roughly, guessing that they probably wouldn’t want a private room, so he led the two of them to the table on the first floor by the window, “It just happened to be surrounded by them again. The stairs are in the way, you can’t see the pictures here when you come in from the outside, it’s very quiet.”
“Miss, why don’t you go to the private room.” Wan Lu felt a little distressed for Ran Yan, she was originally a noble girl, so why did she have to show her face like this.
Turning to the inside, there are only three, and there are already two people sitting, all dressed like students, Ran Yan felt very satisfied, and did not need to waste money to sit in the private room, and said, “This place is good, just sit here. Bar.”
Without waiting for Wan Lu to speak again, he just sat down on the seat.
Wan Lu had no choice but to kneel and sit down.
“Second ladies, the dishes are all written on the wall, what would you like to order?” the little Er greeted.
Ran Yan saw the small bamboo signs hanging on the wall through the soap yarn, which were filled with the names of various wines, syrups, and dishes, so she ordered two black plum syrup first, and then asked Wan Lu to point out a few dishes.
Not long after Xiao Er retreated, he heard bursts of charming laughter from the second floor, and from time to time there were several piano sounds, which attracted a few scribes next to them to look up.
“It’s the Yalan Club. The talented little lady in the city, Eight CD, is upstairs. If you can get a favor, tsk tsk…” A white-robed scribe raised his head and drank a glass of wine, tsk said, “That’s it. It’s not a waste of life.”
