Happy Little Scholar

The old lady looked at Liu Jimin eagerly and asked, "Is this true? Is Ruyi really pregnant?"

"How are you talking? How are you talking!" The doctor suddenly jumped up from his chair, looked at the old lady dissatisfied, and said: "What do you mean by taking this seriously? Do you know who is standing in front of you? This is the truth. According to the imperial physician's order, Mr. Liu's medical skills are unpredictable and unparalleled in the world. If you say you are happy, you are happy, and you can't go wrong..."

"Shut up!"

Liu Jimin glared at him. He didn't even dare to talk to the old lady of the Li family like this. What would County Uncle Li think of him if he heard this?

"Mr. Liu, do you want to take a closer look?" The old lady still felt a little uneasy and asked anxiously.

Liu Jimin smiled and said, "Don't worry, old lady. Mrs. Li is pregnant not long ago. It's normal for ordinary doctors not to be able to tell. Even I almost didn't find out just now."

"Miss is pregnant!"

Xiaohuan put the tea on the table, ran over in a hurry, looked at Ruyi's belly, opened her mouth wide, and asked in surprise and joy.

"Amitabha, I wonder if Mr. Li is here, but I have something to give you." A voice came from outside the door. The old lady turned around, looked at the young monk, and said in surprise: "It's the little master Mingjing, is it Master Tanyin?" "

Master Tanyin had a very high status in the hearts of Buddhist believers in Kyoto, so the old lady naturally couldn't neglect him and hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

The young monk shook his head and said, "Master is in seclusion in the temple to meditate. He asked the young monk to bring two scriptures and a prescription to give to County Uncle Li."

The young monk took out a cloth bag from his arms, opened it, and handed it forward respectfully.

"prescription?"

Liu Jimin came over, glanced at the prescriptions placed on the two scriptures, and said with a smile: "Master Tanyin's medical skills are indeed well-deserved. This prescription is just for regulating and preventing pregnancy. It seems that the master has already figured out Mrs. Li's medical skills." I'm pregnant, the old lady isn't worried now, is she?"

"Don't worry, don't worry." All the wrinkles on the old lady's face relaxed, she looked at the young monk and said: "Little Master Mingjing, go back and thank Master Tanyin for us. I will definitely go up the mountain to fulfill my wish for Han someday." The mountain temple offers enough incense..."

When he looked back at Ruyi, his expression immediately changed. He walked over to help her and said, "Why are you still standing here? Sit down quickly..."

"Old Madam, I..." Ruyi just opened her mouth to say something, but she was interrupted arbitrarily.

"What am I..., this is a big deal, you young people don't understand." The old lady waved her hand and said:

"From now on, you will be raised well at home. You are not allowed to go anywhere, and you are not allowed to do anything. All menial tasks such as washing and cooking will be done by the maids and servants in the house. Which wealthy family in Kyoto is as accustomed as you? With the maid..."

The old lady turned around and said with a stern face to the two maids outside the door: "Did you hear that? If I see you not taking good care of my young lady in the future, you will all be kicked out of the house!"

"knew!"

The two maids responded quickly.

With just a cup of tea, the news spread throughout the Li Mansion. Butler Li, who had always been mean, showed a rare moment of generosity. The servants all received a lot of rewards, and even the horses in the stables were fed two more meals. Take the fresh grass...

When Liu Jimin came, he only carried a small medicine box on his back. When he left, even the carriage was filled with gifts.

The young monk was holding so many boxes that his head was invisible.

"well……"

The Kyoto doctor walked out of the Li family gate, put away a copper coin wrapped in red thread, sighed, and looked regretful...

"Hello, Miss Second!"

Miss Liu Er walked into the gate and happened to see a man rushing out of the mansion on horseback. She frowned. When she walked into the gate, she saw the happy expression on the face of the maid and servant in the mansion, and her face was slightly startled.

…

…

In the Lotus Garden, there is a rare bustle in the year.

"This glazed Buddha statue has a base price of eight thousand taels."

"Ten thousand taels!"

"Eleven thousand taels!"

"Twelve thousand taels!"

…

…

The monks welcome all visitors to the Buddha statues, not just from Kyoto. In three days, monks from the neighboring states and capitals of Kyoto heard the news and came.

In fact, since the old emperor invited many eminent monks to appreciate the glass statue, many monks came from other places. Although they missed the glass appreciation meeting, they caught up with the Wang family's charity sale.

The monks were extremely generous with their money. They shouted out ten thousand or ten thousand taels of silver without hesitation. This also made the powerful people in Kyoto begin to realize who the real rich people were.

At least let them spend so much money at once without hesitation. For some people who are not wealthy, it is tantamount to digging out their hearts and lungs.

Fortunately, the Wang family is not polite to the monks, but the price of other colored glaze wares and colored glaze jewelry is much cheaper than those in the palace. However, considering the large amount of colored glaze they get from foreign merchants, the price is a bit lower. Not so surprising.

Of course, some of the little episodes that happened occasionally made everyone stunned for a while.

For example, for a glazed statue that looked like the living old man of the Cui family, the Wang family directly offered fifty thousand taels of silver, which was almost five times as much as the Buddha statue of the same size. The Cui family's visitors almost overturned the table on the spot, but in the end they had to swallow their anger. bought it.

If the old man's glass statue is bought by someone else, the Cui family's lost reputation cannot be bought back with fifty thousand taels of silver.

When Lao Fang walked out of Furong Garden, he was still rubbing his hands. Li Yi could even feel that he was shaking.

Come to think of it, it was like a poor man with nothing suddenly mastered the magical skill of turning stone into gold. He could stand here steadily, which showed that his psychological quality was very good.

To some extent, this was more powerful than turning stone into gold. After all, glass was more expensive than gold.

Li Yi actually didn't understand his behavior. With Lao Fang's current wealth, it was no problem to buy a big house. If Fang's wife could pass the test, he could welcome a beautiful concubine into the house at any time. However, although he had money, he never spent it. The money for Zhuzi to marry a wife should have been saved a year ago, right?

Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he was the same.

The money he earned with great difficulty was not spent much, and it was all squandered by Miss Liu Er.

"What's wrong?" The carriage suddenly stopped. Li Yi remembered that he had just left Furong Garden not long ago. There was no reason to get home now. He lifted the curtain and asked.

"Son-in-law, do you want to go in and take a look?"

Old Fang showed a hesitant expression on his face, pointing to the alley beside him.

"Not going today." Li Yi took a look and said, lowering the curtain.

"Okay." Old Fang nodded, got off the carriage, and opened the curtain.

Li Yi jumped off the carriage and walked into the alley.

...

"Mr. Li, the young lady is not here today!" Xiao Cui opened the door and shook her head.

"Not here? Where did she go?" Li Yi looked at her and asked.

"She just went to the shop. The young lady may come back with Sister Ruoqing in the evening." Xiao Cui looked at him and said, "Mr. Li, do you want to come in and wait?"

"No." Li Yi shook his head and said, "I'll go first."

Xiao Cui stood at the door, watched her walk away, then closed the door, walked into the yard, and asked, "Miss, why did you lie to Mr. Li that you were not at home?"

Zeng Zuimo shook his head and said nothing.

There was another knock on the door.

"It must be Master Li who is back again." Xiao Cui walked while asking, "Miss, what should I say this time?"

She opened the door a crack, stuck her head out, and said, "Master Li, Miss said she is not here, you..."

She was stunned, looked at the stranger in front of her, and asked in confusion, "Excuse me, who are you looking for?"

Hearing the footsteps behind him that were different from Xiao Cui's, Zeng Zuimo took a deep breath, turned around and was about to speak, looking at the person standing in the yard, after a moment of stunned, his face immediately turned pale.

The middle-aged man sighed and said, "Zuimo, you have been in Kyoto for so long, why don't you go back to take a look?"
