Chapter 122 Perfect fit
The old imperial physician said: "If he recovers quickly, he will be able to see normally in three to five days.
But it’s better to wait before any vigorous physical movement.”
This still meant that they couldn't go home for the New Year. Uncle Lin and his son couldn't hide their disappointment. Da Niu even said, "Dad, you and Uncle Changshou go back. I'll stay and accompany them."
He had already asked Uncle Bai and the cook, but they both said they would not come to work during the New Year.
"No, it's very safe here." Shen Changsui didn't dare to expose his eyes to the light for a long time, so he closed his eyes to blur his vision.
Shen Xiaoye saw the difficulty her uncle was in, so she followed the old imperial physician to learn how to make eye-fumigation medicine.
After sending the people away after the actual operation, she said to her uncle: "You can go home first, I will take care of everything here.
I'm really worried, so I hired two security guards."
"What a nonsense idea." Shen Changsui tapped her forehead and said, "We will all go home today. We will make arrangements after the Kitchen God Festival."
"Sui'er, don't go back and forth, your eyes are the most important." Uncle Lin took his hand and said, "I believe your aunt and uncle would not agree with you running back and forth.
Maybe, after they offer sacrifices to the Kitchen God, they will come to Beijing to spend the New Year with you.”
"That's right! What my cousin said makes sense." The uncle was no longer entangled after hearing this. He said, "Let's go now. Xiaoye, don't go out if you have nothing to do. Anyway, the cloth has been sold and there are a lot of food here.
There are more and more people in the city these days, so ask the cook to help buy some sugar candies."
He was just a little worried that his parents would not let his brother and Xiaoye spend the New Year alone.
Alas, if he didn't have a batch of cloth and a lot of cash at home, he would be willing to bring his whole family to Beijing to celebrate the New Year.
Shen Xiaoye assured: "Don't worry, uncle, I still have to take care of my fourth uncle and won't go out."
Before they left, she quietly told her uncle, "Be sure to give these days' wages to Uncle Lin and his family.
I have already made the accounts, including the money to be paid to the government, so you can just give it to your aunt."
"Well, you must not go out alone!" My uncle reminded me countless times.
Of course, Shen Xiaoye had seen all kinds of excitement before, so there was no need for her to wander around the streets during a time when accidents are more frequent.
But my uncle didn’t know that the day after he left, several groups of people came to give him gifts.
The first person to come over was naturally Mr. Miao, who wanted to take back the goods. He was really grateful to Shen Xiaoye for helping him make the connection, so he took advantage of the New Year to give her and Lu Guan generous gifts.
The second one was little boy Zhou Wenchen. He wanted to come and see Lu Guan during the holiday, but he didn't expect that his fourth brother Lu had not yet left the examination room.
So I worried, “Will there be too many questions and I won’t be able to answer them all?”
"He is taking the martial arts test and will probably not take the literary test." Shen Xiaoye shook his head.
Zhou Wenchen also shook his head: "You have to take exams for every subject.
He said before that he was injured and would not go to school, but he actually took the exam directly? Fourth Brother Lu is really brave. "
Shen Xiaoye looked at the child carefully. The child was really praising Lu Guan. She secretly hoped that Lu Guan would not do too poorly in the exam.
However, the reality is that although Lu Guan was at the top in archery and horsemanship, he was still a little clueless when it came to the Four Books and Five Classics.
So throughout the entire examination room, other students were either studying furiously or pondering, but after he finished answering the questions on the scriptures and policy essays, he just stared blankly.
Just as I was searching my mind for the original owner's knowledge of how to write four-six parallel prose, another question on the Five Classics was announced by the supervisor holding up the question board.
Lu Guan took a deep breath and wrote down the questions, thinking that Shen Heng was truly a talent as he was able to pass the two county government exams in one go.
Shen Xiaoye had no idea of Lu Guan's difficulties. After sending Zhou Wenchen away, she followed the cook to prepare offerings for tomorrow's Kitchen God Festival.
The cook was a gentle person. She explained the steps to her step by step and warned her tirelessly: "Men do not worship the moon and women do not worship the kitchen god. You just need to look after Mr. Shen and do not do it for him."
"I know. In previous years, my grandfather and uncles were the ones who took care of the family." Since he lives here, Shen Xiaoye naturally abides by the current customs.
As the two were teaching and learning, she seemed to hear knocks on the door. Just as she was about to go to the front to take a look, Mr. Bai ran over: "Miss Shen, Miss Shen..."
"Uncle Bai, what's wrong? Who's here?" Shen Xiaoye told him not to worry and followed him forward.
Shen Changsui opened the door curtain in the west wing and said, "Xiaoye, what's the matter?"
"It's okay. A stranger knocked on the door and I wasn't sure it was safe, so I didn't open it." Shen Xiaoye signaled Uncle Bai to leave quickly.
Uncle Bai said after he left the second door: "There was so much blood in that man's stomach. I opened the door and immediately closed it."
"Did you see how many people there were?" Shen Xiaoye went out of the second door and picked up a shovel next to the coal pile.
"No." When Mr. Bai saw her action, he hurriedly grabbed a handful.
At this moment, Little Black Cat had already followed Shen Changsui's orders and chased after Shen Xiaoye, and said in a voice transmission: "I'll go to the roof to take a look."
"Yeah." Shen Xiaoye was already lying on the gate to look, but the door of Lu Guan's house was tightly closed and he couldn't see outside.
The little black cat she had given her hope to was standing on the ridge of the gatehouse, looking carefully at the door, but at this moment, there was no one on the ground except a pool of blood.
Even in the alley, no one was passing by at this moment.
It slid down the wall and followed the blood to Geng's house next door.
When the little black cat tilted its head and was wondering whether to sneak in, the door of Geng's house suddenly opened.
The servant who opened the door happened to meet its green eyes. Not only did he overturn the bucket of water, but he also shouted, "Ghost!"
Then he turned around and ran, knocking over the people behind him, including the water.
The little black cat had black lines all over its head. It scurried back home to find Shen Xiaoye and sent her a message like this.
Shen Xiaoye just heard the shouting next door and the slamming of the door from the neighbor to the east. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Bai, open the door. Then we can go find the chief of the village or report it to the police directly."
As she said that, she unbolted the door and opened it. Uncle Bai was holding a shovel, ready to fight at any time, but there was no one outside the door.
"Going to the next door?" He was an adult after all, and he consciously stood in front of Shen Xiaoye and looked outside.
And at a glance, I saw sections of blood dripping from the ground toward the west.
Mr. Bai bravely stepped out, and Shen Xiaoye behind him reminded him, "Watch your step, don't step on blood."
"Miss Shen, he's gone. Why don't we just ignore him?" Mr. Bai's courage receded again.
Shen Xiaoye sighed: "I'm afraid not, you see."
She moved aside the door panel, which had a large bloody palm print on it. Mr. Bai took a deep breath and said, "Oh my god."
Then he carefully went out with the shovel in hand. However, before he could get out of the alley, several soldiers from the military department came towards him like a gust of wind. If he didn't dodge quickly, he would have been knocked over.
But the people from the Bingmasi still stopped him. The other few ran to the gate and looked at Shen Xiaoye, then split up and chased after Xueji.
"Brother officer, when we opened the door, we saw a pool of blood. The family has already gone to report the case." Shen Xiaoye pointed at Uncle Bai at the entrance of the alley.
The military officer stared at her and said, "Tell us everything at the government office."
