No, gentlemen also guard against

Chapter 17 Bows and Surprises
There was a cluster of fire in Ouyang Rong's heart, which became more and more intense.

But there is no way to vent and release.

He didn't come here to prostitute his wife, daughter and younger sister!

But thinking about it carefully, his behavior in the past two days, in the eyes of many people in this world, is indeed clearly going in this direction.

Just imagine, a young county magistrate, who is not a doctor, went to a poor family's house to "visit sick" over and over again. I agreed without hesitation, without any hesitation...

What do you think is not the only young girl in this family who is a little strange and juicy?It can't be someone else's mother, right?It's a bit of a beast, but it's not bad...

So, you don't really want to stay for dinner, do you?
Isn't eating a veil to maintain decency?Behind the cloth is the default rule of the world...

However, this was not what made Ouyang Rong the most angry. What really made him purse his lips tightly at this moment, his nose trembled slightly, and the blood on his face... They all regarded it as normal.

Ah Shan took it as usual.

Mother Liu took it as usual.

Ah Qing also took it as usual.

Everyone in the Great Zhou Empire took it as usual.

Even Ouyang Rong believed that even if the world knew about it at this moment, it would not affect his reputation as a gentleman in the world at all, and at most he would take back one who was not close to women.

Because Ah Qing's family is just a lowly slave family, and what is Ouyang Rong's identity?Isn't Ouyang Lianghan doing "a great deed"?Maybe it can still be a good story about a gentleman in Shilin who accepts slaves with a kind heart...

And this is the source of the fire in Ouyang Rong's heart.

He's not a saint, but he doesn't take it as usual either.

"Everyone takes things as usual, must they be right?"

In the dark room, Ouyang Rong silently put on the Confucian robe that he had taken off, put it on Ah Qing, picked up the belt on the ground, lowered his head and carefully fastened it around the waist for the thin girl.

Ah Qing is a bit short, he has to kneel on the mat, they are the same height, so it is easier for him to move.

"Master doesn't like Ah Qing?"

"No, I have a crush on Ah Qing too much."

Ah Qing's face was confused, and Ouyang Rong shook his head lightly, without further explanation.

What he's thinking now is how to convince Ah Qing and Mother Liu of his treatment plan. Could it be possible to talk about it directly... Wait, that's right, just talk about it directly.

Ouyang Rong directly took Ah Qing to find Liu's mother, pretending to be swearing and winning, and told them that he had an ancestral magic formula, tried a hundred times, and could try to cure Liu Ashan's tetanus, but they needed their cooperation and time is tight.

Ouyang Rong immediately saw the hope born of the awe of authority and superstition in the eyes of Liu's mother and daughter.

"...Two coins for Dan Nanxing, one whole scorpion, grind it into powder, and give it as a rice wine..."

After instructing Fang Zi, he paused and said:

"In addition to the divine formula, there are some auxiliary methods that need your cooperation...First of all, the wound needs to be treated again...Don't cover it with such a thick bedding anymore, it needs to be ventilated..."

Ouyang Rong originally thought that the regular cleaning of the wound, fumigation with wormwood, and cutting off bad meat and foreign objects proposed later were a bit scary, but unexpectedly, Ah Qing and Liu Mu became more convinced after hearing it.

They said that some Taoist doctors also use incense and talisman water to wash wounds and cure all diseases...

Ouyang Rong was speechless for a while after hearing this, and he didn't know who touched who in this wave.

But he didn't deny the brains of the mother and daughter, just nodded with a smile, appearing to be unfathomable.

Weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival, but arrogance is, and the last thing poor people have is arrogance.

Ouyang Rong explained the details to Mother Liu carefully, and Ah Qing, who was wearing someone's clothes next to her, looked up at his face in a daze. The girl seemed to want to say something, but she lowered her head shyly.

However, those big sad eyes that had been covered with fog and haze finally regained some hopeful brilliance.

Returning to the dark ward again, the sick man on the couch was surrounded by blankets that looked like shrouds, his face was stiff and lifeless, at a certain moment he suddenly twitched in pain, Ah Qing and Liu Mu hurriedly hugged each other. She rushed over with a quilt and hugged him tightly, and it took a while to calm down.

The mother and daughter wiped their tears and told the weak Ashan about the "Shenfang". Ouyang Rong saw that the tattooed man's face seemed a bit complicated. He walked over and only said one sentence to the man:

"Liu Ashan, after recovering from illness, take care of your mother and sister, and come down the mountain to find me. I'll wait for you at the county government office. You won't die!"

Liu Ashan was stunned.

Ouyang Rong turned around and said goodbye.

In fact, whether the prescription of the barefoot doctor in the previous life can be effective depends on whether Liu Ashan's life is hard, and he has done everything he can, including words of encouragement.

In the room, the delicate and thin girl seemed to have remembered something, and trotted after her with an umbrella, but the county magistrate Ruoguan had already disappeared in the sparse and dark rain.

Holding an oil-paper umbrella, Ah Qing rolled up the hem of her clothes for fear of getting wet from the rain. She stood on tiptoe in the rain and watched someone leave the direction. What caught people's attention was the butterfly-shaped knot he tied around her waist.

Ah Qing reached out and touched the knot of her belt.

She has always been exquisite in handwork, and she has never seen this method of tying. It is a bit like... the butterfly flowers on the bank of the Butterfly Creek at the foot of the mountain.

……

It was night, and Ouyang Rong came to the merit tower in the clouds again.

Entering the tower, look directly at the blue-gold font above the little wooden fish:

[merit: 160]

"I really don't understand what kind of bullshit you are adding weight to. You only add [-] points of merit for saving a life with medicine, but just putting clothes on Ah Qing gives me [-] points of merit... Isn't it a matter of course for a little girl to wear clothes? What's so good about it? Isn't it more important to save a life, and you are so stingy in the end?"

Ouyang Rong shook his head with some self-mockery at the corner of his mouth, then glanced at the silent ancient bronze clock, turned and left...

early morning.

Ouyang Rong got up early, gathered with Mrs. Zhen, and went to the Zaozhaiyuan of Donglin Temple together.

The aunt and nephew came a little early, and the father and daughter of the Xie family hadn't come yet.

Ouyang Rong was dressed in a light blue uniform, looking down at the government documents sent by Yan Wuxie last night, as if he was thinking about something.

Mrs. Zhen beside her was dressed in a dignified and exquisite way today. Under the half-fine service, she took a spoonful of hot porridge, took a sip, wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and took out a small bag of red cloth from her sleeve. Holding a small hard ring-shaped object.

The beautiful woman touched the small red envelope carefully, raised her chin from time to time, and glanced expectantly in the direction of the door.

"Auntie is waiting for Mr. Ruyi?" Ouyang Rong flipped through the official document and asked curiously without turning his head.

"Bah! What nonsense are you talking about? Tan Lang, my aunt is too old, wait for a fucking gentleman." Mrs. Zhen raised the spoon and made a gesture of wanting to hit someone on the head, and Ouyang Rong leaned over to hide.

Ouyang Rong sighed again, "That's a pity, it would be nice to find another one." This way, he wouldn't have to bother him every day.

"You have no conscience." Mrs. Zhen stared at him, then touched the red cloth in her sleeve, and said, "This is the jade bracelet left by your mother, and it is to be passed on to Tan Lang's wife. .”

Ouyang Rong was not surprised, and said in his mouth: "Then you don't hide it well, don't show it if you have nothing to do."

"Huh, it's obviously 'something' today, maybe there will be a surprise, and it will be available right away."

"Surprise? Okay." Ouyang Rong smiled, and didn't argue anymore. Anyway, the master will come later, and the reality will be stronger than his words. This is the correct way to deal with the "concern" of the elders.

Mrs. Zhen wanted to train someone again, but suddenly footsteps came from outside, she looked up, Xie Xun came with Xie Lingjiang, and Mrs. Zhen sat down immediately.

"Sorry, I'm a bit late, didn't you wait long?"

Xie Xun apologized and bowed his hand, Ouyang Rong and Zhen Shi got up to return the salute, and everyone sat down together.

Zhen sighed: "It's all right, it's Tan Lang who got up too early and was in a hurry, that's why he came a little early, it's not there yet, Mr. Xie and Hou Hou are not late."

Ouyang Rong: "?"

Zhenshi ignored him, looking at Xie Xun expectantly, looking for a topic: "Mr. Xie last night..."

Xie Xun took the initiative to speak: "I came late because I had something to do in the morning, and I discussed it with Houhou, which delayed me for a while."

"What's the matter?" Zhen Shi regained her spirits immediately, but Ouyang Rong caught a glimpse of her hands under the table clenching her sleeves tightly, as if she was a little nervous.

Ouyang Rong shook his head inwardly, calmly put the official document aside, and started to eat porridge, as if he knew the result, he didn't want to listen to the process.

Unexpectedly, Xie Xun smiled, "There is one thing that needs to be troubled by Madam and Lianghan."

Ouyang Rong put down the bowl and looked up: "Teacher, please explain? The students must take it seriously."

Xie Xun stroked his beard with some relief, and said, "It's not a difficult matter, but the old man decided to let Houhou stay in Longcheng to accompany Lianghan."

"..."

Ouyang Rong thought he had heard it wrong, and after a moment of dullness, he uttered a syllable: "Ah?"

Zhen's face was overjoyed, and he waved his fist under the table!My heart is steady!

Xie Xun glanced at Ouyang Rong, and repeated it again, word for word, indeed he asked Xie Lingjiang to stay with him.

Ouyang Rong was silent, he turned his head slowly, and looked at the quiet lady from the Xie family diagonally opposite, she was holding her fair face with the palm of her right hand, and she tilted her head to look at the person who was coming in with porridge outside the door. Monk, his face is normal.

But there is only one sentence in someone's mind at the moment:

Explain what is the surprise of stepping on a horse.
