Chapter 260 Uncle Jiusheng, why are you crying?
Zhaocai saw that Master Jiusheng had fainted, and he couldn't just ignore it. What should he do? He was quite familiar with the county town, so he gave the geese to Uncle Zhang, who had just sold the melons.
Zhaocai took his men to send Jiusheng to see Doctor Wang. Doctor Wang in the pharmacy might be even older than old man Jin!
The old man sighed when he saw Jiusheng's appearance: "Oh! This man has been hit by a heat stroke, probably because of the heat. I'll get him a dose of medicine, and he'll be fine after he boils it and drinks it.
Young man, your father is fine now. Give him thirty copper coins and take him home to make medicine for him."
Zhaocai felt helpless. To be honest, he felt that it was unfair for him to spend these thirty copper coins.
Old Man Jin at home had plenty of medicinal herbs, and those herbs were free, but here he was misunderstood as being Lord Jiusheng's father, and he had to spend thirty copper coins! Zhaocai took out the copper coins and paid for the medicine to Jiusheng.
Zhaocai looked at the two subordinates of Jiusheng, they all looked serious, and the corner of Zhaocai's mouth twitched: "The condition of that master is not very good, you can take our carriage and come back with me.
My master is the young county princess. She has a farm on a nearby mountain. I will take you there to recuperate. The master has caught a heat stroke and needs to rest for two days!
There are a lot of people suffering from heat stroke this year, and some have even died from the heat. My little county knows that adults have suffered from heat stroke, so I guess I have to take them home to recuperate! "
The two men also knew Zhaocai, and his family members also knew Zhaocai, so they felt at ease protecting their Lord Jiusheng and followed Zhaocai's family's melon-carrying carriage back to Jubao Garden.
After Zhaocai brought Jiusheng back, he arranged for them to live in the east wing in the front yard of the manor, which was considered the guest room of Jubaoyuan. The wing was cleaned very cleanly by the maids every day.
After settling Jiusheng, Zhaocai immediately asked someone to boil medicine for Jiusheng and prepared lunch. One of Jiusheng's subordinates followed the woman who was boiling the medicine, which made Zhaocai laugh. How could his own family harm Lord Jiusheng?
The medicine was ready. The men slowly cooled the soup and then fed Jiusheng a bowl of it.
Jiusheng frowned because of the bitter medicine. Slowly he woke up. He was a little surprised to see the roof. He turned to look at his two subordinates. When the two subordinates saw that he woke up, they almost cried for joy!
"Sir, are you okay? Hey, you've been really exhausted recently. We've been looking for several months, but there's still no clue. Are you worried?"
Jiusheng sighed: "It's okay! It's just that the heat is too strong here. Now I feel better. Where is this? Where is Zhaocai?"
He was slowly helped to sit up by one of his men. The room was very clean and tidy, with a slight smell of medicine. Jiusheng could tell with his sharp senses that this was a home.
Another subordinate said weakly: "Sir, that Zhaocai brought us back and said that this place is called Jubao Garden, but I saw that this manor is built in a unique style, which is quite similar to the architectural style of the capital..."
Jiusheng raised his eyebrows: "Did Zhaocai bring us here? That kid is pretty good, he knows the importance of distance..."
He shook his head and felt that he was indeed feeling better. Suddenly he heard the sounds of attracting wealth and bringing in treasure.
"Is our Master Jiusheng awake? The food and melons we brought are all for cooling off. Master, you must be suffering from heat stroke!"
Jiusheng: "Let both Zhaocai and Jinbao come in."
I saw two boys, one holding a square plate with a bowl of mung bean soup and a bowl of cold potato shreds, and the other holding a bowl of melon!
Zhaocai said with a smile: "Sir, you have been hit by the heat. Our old man Jin just examined you and said that your condition is not serious. It's just that the heat has accumulated for a few days. It will be fine in two days!
This mung bean soup we specially made for you can relieve you of the summer heat. It can be eaten with shredded potatoes to cool you down.
These are the meals for the three of you. They are all green bean soup with shredded potatoes. They are not good food, but they are the best way to relieve the summer heat."
Jinbao: "Sir, the melons are grown on the hillside of our farm. I didn't expect them to grow so well. I can't finish them all. I sold two truckloads today!"
Jiu Shengmu stared at the two boys in a daze. The two boys had dark skin but joy in their eyes, proving that their lives were not bad.
Jiusheng nodded, picked up the bowl of rice his men had served him, drank a mouthful of mung bean soup, which was indeed quite refreshing, and ate a few mouthfuls of cold dishes before nodding: "The food here tastes good, Zhaocai Jinbao, you two are here, then where is your young master?"
Zhaocai and Jinbao looked at each other and said with a smile: "Our little county lady hasn't woken up yet. I guess I'll have to wait until the children wake up from their nap before coming to see you."
Jiusheng didn't understand but didn't take it seriously. He ate the food quickly. Lately he had been unable to eat because of the heat. The simple meals here were refreshing. His two subordinates also sat at the table on the ground and started to eat. Jiusheng finished eating quickly on the kang table, and Zhaocai and Jinbao cleared the table and left.
Jiusheng looked at this place and actually thought that the environment here was quite good. For some reason, he felt a little excited. Maybe he could meet the young county lady here.
Jiusheng and his two men ate a melon each. The melon was indeed sweet, sweet to the heart. After eating it, they immediately felt clear-headed and refreshed. The melon was indeed a good one. In the capital city at this time of year, one might not be able to buy such a sweet melon!
After finishing the melon, Jiusheng felt that he had regained some strength. He stood up, moved around on the ground for a while, and then left the house. As soon as he left the house, he felt the scorching sun outside!
It was probably already past noon, and the position of the sun showed that it was afternoon. Jiusheng felt that he was really old. He was in his forties and no longer a young man. He was indeed exhausted.
Jiusheng was a man who was loyal to his duties. He was actually a little sad at this moment, lamenting that his physical fitness was getting worse and worse. He thought that he had to train younger generations and help take care of the Crown Prince in the future, otherwise he might not be able to hold on for a few more years...
When Jiusheng was lost in thought, he suddenly heard a sound. It was the sound of a wooden wheel of a cart. He looked up and saw a little girl in a pink dress pushing a cart. She was looking at him with a smile from a distance.
"Uncle Jiusheng, how did you get here? I heard from Zhaocai that you had a heat stroke, so he brought you here.
Are you okay now? Why don't you go inside and lie down for a while? Heatstroke can be serious or minor.
I heard a few days ago that several people died of heat stroke in the village near the county town... You can't just hold on!"
Jiusheng looked at the pretty little girl and felt it was unreal. He stood under the eaves, unable to react, until the little girl came over pushing a stroller. He could also hear the baby's little voice.
Shen Ruyi came over pushing a pair of little kids and said with a smile, "Oh, it's too hot today, but the kids love to go out and play... They want to go out and play as soon as they wake up."
Jiushengmu stared blankly at the car, on the roof of which there was a small cloth shed for sun protection.
Shen Ruyi pushed the child under the eaves and then lifted the small cloth shed, revealing a pair of beautiful little babies, both fair and tender, kicking their legs and waving their arms. They were wearing the same red satin shorts and little bibs, just like a pair of ginseng dolls!
Jiusheng's eyes bulged and his head was buzzing. He looked at a little kid who looked about 60% similar to his own Crown Princess!
Looking at another little baby, who looked just like the little county lady in front of him, he couldn't help but feel excited!
Jiusheng burst into tears without realizing it, his heart was extremely shocked. The emperor star or disaster star he had been looking for... turned out to be this result!
Did he finally find it?
Shen Ruyi wiped the children's little mouths. They were drooling at that moment. The little guys giggled with their little mouths open and babbled, and their saliva kept flowing.
Shen Ruyi was really helpless. It was fortunate that these two drooling kids were hiding in this mountain, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.
Shen Ruyi smiled and raised her head: "Oh! Uncle Jiusheng, why are you crying?"
