The sun shines on the face, warm.
Gu Zhao covered his face with his sleeves irritably, entered the pavilion and sat on the beauty's back.
After a while, Dai Li and a few stout mothers came over.
"Miss."
Several people bowed their bodies and saluted.
Gu Zhao waved his hand, "Move the remaining waxed crabapple to Yilanting.
By the way, I sent a pot to my grandmother and mother, and said that I was very filial to me when I looked beautiful.”
The leading short and fat woman had a pair of smiling eyes. After hearing Gu Zhao say that, she agreed respectfully.
Seeing that nothing was wrong, Gu Zhao clapped his hands and left the small garden.
Dai Li followed her step by step, but she stopped talking.
The breeze blew up the hair on the temples, and Gu Zhao's cheeks were itchy.
She glanced at her big girl, "It's really hard to say whatever she wants to say."
"...Miss, I saw Dr. Han on the way here just now. He entered Lingboyuan with a brocade box in his hand."
Dai Li thought for a while, "I have seen such a brocade box at the eldest lady before, which is used to serve ginseng health pills for Miss Six."
"So what?"
Gu Zhao looked at her sideways.
"No, I just feel a little bit emotional."
Dai Li said: "When I was in my hometown, I heard my grandfather talk about the benefits of ginseng. I was very capable and could save half-dead people.
Miss Six is such a blessing.”
She sighed.
"Don't mention her to me."
Gu Zhao felt heartache when he thought of Gu Han's eloquence.
Gu Han has changed so much now. He is no longer the sick person who used to be timid and dared not speak loudly.
Dai Li said "Oh", looked at Gu Zhao's ugly face and said nothing.
The master and servant walked through the terrazzo path, and the lotus pond was ahead.
A water pavilion was built on the right side of the lotus pond, winding it with a garden corridor leading directly to the Yilan Pavilion.
But Gu Zhao walked straight through the lotus pond and walked out of the hanging flower gate.
"Miss?"
Dai Li was stunned: "Where are we going?"
After passing the Hanghuamen, you will be the outer courtyard.
"Don't ask if you shouldn't, just follow me."
Gu Zhao's voice was cold.
She made up her mind to go to Huacaotang to find Dr. Han.
For people of average length, why can’t Gu Han eat ginseng every day?
The Flower and Grass Cottage is a two-entry courtyard with three upper rooms and two sides are wing rooms.
The first entry is mainly used to place various Chinese medicines, pharmacy boiling rooms, etc.
The second entry is residence.
Originally, Dr. Han lived by himself, but later Zhao invited Wu Ning in Baicaotang, Kyoto according to the old lady's wishes, and arranged it with Dr. Han.
A medicine boy was flipping through herbs in the yard. When he saw Gu Zhao coming in, he hurriedly saluted: "...Miss Four, you rarely come here."
He let himself walk into the house again.
The medicine boy Gu Zhao knew him, who was the apprentice accepted by Dr. Han.
She smiled: "I have a bad appetite recently, so I'll take a look at Dr. Han."
"It's really a coincidence. Miss Four, you came at the wrong time. Dr. Han was invited by the old lady... But the new Dr. Wu is free."
"Nothing happens."
Gu Zhao waved his hand and went to the west wing where he was entertaining guests, "...I'll wait for Dr. Han."
The medicine boy served tea and stood aside to serve.
Gu Zhao had just drunk a cup of tea when he heard the voice of the servant coming from outside: "Doctor Han, you are back."
Then he said, "Miss Four is here to see you..." Gu Zhao didn't hear clearly afterwards.
"Miss Four?"
Where are you feeling uncomfortable?”
With the curtain lifted, Dr. Han stepped into the room with his hands on his back.
Gu Zhao shook his head, asked the others in the room to retreat first, and replied: "I feel uncomfortable, but second... Doctor Han, no secret words are spoken. I am here to ask you for something."
"Miss Four, please tell me."
Gu Zhao was not polite either: "Do you know the ginseng health pill?"
Dr. Han nodded and smiled, "...I'm my worthy."
Gu Zhao said "hmm" and looked up and asked him: "Give me a bottle?"
Dr. Han was stunned and before he could speak, Gu Zhao continued: "Anyway, I have eaten something to replenish my energy. There are many people in the mansion, so you can make more... You don't have to worry about grandmother's place, I will talk about it myself."
Dr. Han thought for a while and asked the medicine boy to take the medicine box over, took out a bottle from it and handed it to Gu Zhao, "Two pills a day."
The fourth lady comes from a big room, her father is a bachelor's degree in the Hanlin Academy, and her mother is in charge of the affairs of all and small in the office.
Needless to say, the status is noble.
Besides, it is just a pill for health preservation. For families like Gu’s house, there are many ginseng warehouses, just like eating radishes.
There is no need to offend them.
Gu Zhao didn't expect Dr. Han to be so easy to talk. She took out five taels of silver from her purse and put it on the table. She smiled generously and said, "Doctor Han can make a few taels of wine."
"You are kind to Miss Four."
Dr. Han saw Gu Zhao away, thought for a while, and smiled.
I took medicine to get water and washed my hands.
Before Shen was reached, the sun disappeared.
Instead, the whistling wind and dark clouds were heard.
It's going to rain.
Gu Han sat on the ring chair by the window and sewed white silk socks for himself.
When the light dimmed, Qiaoling lit two lamps, sorted the needle and thread in the basket for Gu Han, and advised: "Miss, take a break, be careful, your eyes are sore."
"The needle will be collected right away."
Gu Han shook his neck and felt a little sleepy.
She glanced at Qiaoling, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "...I took ginseng health pills today?"
Qiaoling pursed her lips and smiled, replying to her words: "You have eaten it."
It's about an hour."
Gu Han thought for a while and asked again: "How do you feel about my complexion?"
Qiaoling looked at Gu Han for a while, "It's pretty good, her cheeks are shiny than before."
Gu Han nodded and shook his head again, puzzled: "...I don't know why, my strength seems to be worse than before. I often feel dizzy and I love to sleep more."
Taohong sat on the threshold with a few little girls playing with ropes. When she heard the sound of talking, she continued: "Yes, the lady has been like this since she took ginseng health pills.
Like a kitten, she is very sleepy."
After saying that, I thought my description was quite interesting and laughed.
But Gu Han's eyebrows pounded and his intuition told her, was the problem ginseng health pill?
After thinking about it, I probably won’t.
The pill was made by my grandmother by Dr. Han. It was not just her. My grandmother also took it, but it had different effects from her.
Taohong smiled for a while, and saw the east wing quiet, she felt a little nervous, and she got up and walked in: "Miss."
"Um?"
Gu Han was lowering his head and biting the thread, asking, "What's wrong?"
"No... I just worry about you."
Gu Han re-tied the knot, sewed the top edge, and Zhan Yan smiled: "What's there to worry about?"
Tao Hongxiu frowned: "I am afraid of this pill..."
The thunder sounded "rumbling" and interrupted her words.
The raindrops as big as beans fell in strings, and the girl from Lingboyuan was busy moving to move the Clivia on the flower bed.
The little girl sitting on the threshold was also called to help.
Gu Han is closest to her, and she hears words very well.
