After traveling through time, she took her husband to be a food doctor

Chapter 8: I was unsure about my marriage and went to the street to observe secretly

After sending An Yumo away, Ding Xirui walked around the room, not liking everything he saw. According to Yumo, Ding Xirui liked this engagement partner before, and the Ding family's parents should also know this, so Ding Xirui cannot cancel the engagement without a reason. Moreover, in this era, canceling an engagement would cause great damage to the reputation of the daughter's family and also to the Ding family.

By the way, Yumo said he was the young master of the Lin family. Because the Lin family runs a clinic, Ding Xirui wanted to help after marriage, so she went to study medicinal materials. Lin family? The man she saw in the cave on the day of the rainstorm was surnamed Lin, and he was a doctor. Could he be related to him? However, she did reveal her surname that day, but the man did not say or do anything special. When she met Banxia on the official road, Banxia had also seen him, and there was nothing unusual at that time.

"Banxia, ​​you have more opportunities to go out than me. Do you know what the reputation of the Lin family clinic is now?" Ding Xirui asked. She didn't dare to ask directly, "How many clinics are there?" or "Where is the Lin family clinic?" for fear of arousing Banxia's suspicion.

"The Lin family's clinic has always had a good reputation. Although the Jishiditang of my brother-in-law's family is not big, Mr. Lin has excellent medical skills and my brother-in-law is young but quite talented. Everyone says that the strength of Jishiditang will soon grow." Banxia replied.

"Son-in-law?" Ding Xirui felt uncomfortable when he heard this title.

"Miss, don't be shy. I have heard your story many times. When you were a child, you got lost and it was Young Master Lin who sent you back. At that time, I was still in Lan County. After I came here, you often mentioned that young master. Banxia also wants to meet him soon." Banxia said with a smile.

"Later, the master had business dealings with Jishidiang. After they became familiar with each other, the two families got engaged. Their horoscopes matched and they had a childhood friendship. It was simply fate." Banxia continued.

"Oh~" Ding Xirui twisted his handkerchief with both hands, feeling complicated.

"I'm going to visit Yumo at her house in a couple of days, and I want to buy some interesting things at the market to bring back. Which street is better for us to take?"

"Yumo's home is in the north of Xifang. Let's go along Xishi Street..." Banxia suddenly paused. She turned her eyes and said to Ding Xirui:

"Miss, let's go to the Second Street of East City. There are a lot of fun things there. Who knows, we may even meet someone special." Banxia secretly poked Ding Xirui.

"Okay, you bad girl, I'll tickle you." Ding Xirui secretly groaned inwardly. He wanted to see the other person's true face, but the restrictions were too great.

During these three days, Ding Xirui followed his father to the medicine shop to study as usual. Uncle Huang and Xiao Liuzi had gradually recovered their strength and were able to get out of bed and walk a few steps. This speed made the doctor feel very happy. Ding Xirui once again asked Aunt Fan to give them more fresh fruits and vegetables and not to drink alcohol before they fully recovered.

When he returned home in the evening, Ding Xirui proposed to go to An Yumo's house. Since it was common for the two to visit each other, Ding's father and mother agreed without asking any further questions.

The next morning, Chen Pitao got on the car and headed for the East Market. When passing the main street, he saw a group of people gathered around a wall and talking. Ding Xirui lifted a corner of the curtain and found that it was a place similar to a bulletin board. There was a piece of paper on the wall, the content was unclear, but there was a word "Yuanqing 16th Year" on the far left.

"Banxia, ​​what do you think the emperor is doing now?" Ding Xirui asked.

"Attending the morning court? Reviewing memorials? He should be busy with official business. His Majesty, the second emperor of our Sheng Kingdom, is very diligent and is said to be very handsome." Banxia replied.

Shengguo? Oh my god, I've never heard of it.

"I didn't travel to a fictional novel, did I?" Ding Xirui sighed. Others were either princes or princesses, but she, Ding Xirui, was an ordinary person. It was fine this way, without family and country hatred, life and death, just being an ordinary person would be fine.

The carriage went eastward and the place became busier. Ding Xirui looked through the curtains and saw rows of shops, including restaurants, teahouses, wonton stalls, steamed bun shops, study supplies, cloth and spices. In addition, the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and moon cakes were already on display in the pastry shops, which smelled sweet and mouth-watering.

"Banxia, ​​let's buy some freshly baked mooncakes." Ding Xirui said.

"Yes, miss. I'll buy it right away." Banxia said as she got out of the car.

Ding Xirui suddenly remembered that she didn't bring any money with her. However, she thought that Banxia should be keeping all her money. She would have to pay attention to how much she could spend every month and how to use it appropriately.

After a while, Banxia got on the bus carrying a bag of mooncakes.

"Miss, please try this." Banxia handed a piece of pink dessert to Ding Xirui.

"Well, is this a gift from the store?" Ding Xirui asked.

"Yes, there is a new pastry chef in their shop." Banxia replied.

The dessert was soft and smelled of flowers. It was probably similar to the flower cakes of later generations.

"You and Chenpi should try it too." Ding Xirui broke off two pieces and handed them to Banxia.

The three of them ate a piece of cake together, and the atmosphere was harmonious and happy for a while.

The carriage continued to move forward, "Miss, look!" Banxia suddenly said.

Ding Xirui looked through the curtain and saw the words "Jishitang" in front of her. The hall was not big. There were three doctors feeling the pulse of a patient and a waiter preparing medicine at the counter. She lifted a corner of the curtain and was about to take a peek, but was stopped by Banxia.

"Miss, you can't do that." Banxia looked at her and shook her head.

Ding Xirui smiled awkwardly: "I just wanted to take a look at the sachets on the roadside." She knew that according to current etiquette, it was very inappropriate to do so.

"Come to think of it, I haven't met my uncle yet. Why don't I pretend to be a patient and go take a look." Banxia tilted her head to tease her young lady.

"Don't go. It would be terrible if something happens." Ding Xirui quickly stopped him.

It was hard to see clearly through the curtain, but she could vaguely see that there were three men, one old and two young. One of the two young men should be her future husband, but she didn't know which one he was. She couldn't recognize whether he was the lifesaver that day.

"Oh!" Ding Xirui sighed.

Banxia saw that the young lady was disappointed, so she said to Chenpi, "Chenpi, stop the car at the entrance of the alley ahead."

The alley is located in the northwest of Jishidiang, diagonally opposite the main hall. It does not block the road and is a good place to see the doctor sitting in the hall.

Ding Xirui smiled at Banxia to express his gratitude.

In Jishitang not far away, Lin Mingyuan, the eldest son of the Lin family, had just written a prescription for a patient. At this time, he stood up and went to the back hall to drink tea. Lin Mingyuan had married a wife who was his mother's niece. Lin Mingxuan, the second son of the Lin family, was treating a patient with stomachache. He had learned medicine from his father since he was a child. He was quite talented and hardworking.

"When did you start having stomachache?" Lin Mingxuan asked.

"Last night at midnight." said the patient, holding his stomach.

"What did you eat yesterday?"

"It's just rice and some wild vegetables, which we usually eat."

"Did you eat cold food yesterday?"

"Last night, I came back from going out and was very hungry, so I ate some lunch, but I didn't feel cold. I often ate like this before."

"When you go out to work, your body is warm and you don't feel cold, but now it is autumn and the afternoon has become cold. It is easy to get gastrointestinal discomfort if you eat cold food. However, you are in good health and don't need to take medicine. I will give you acupuncture. When you go back, fill a bag of hot water and cover your stomach with it." Lin Mingxuan said.

"Thank you, doctor." The two then went to the back hall.

In the carriage, Banxia asked Ding Xirui: "Miss, shall we go?"

"Wait a little longer." Ding Xirui replied.

After a while, Lin Mingxuan sent the patient out of the clinic. As he got closer, Ding Xirui's heart was in his throat.

However, through the curtain, I still couldn't see his face clearly, but my figure was indeed similar to the man on the day of the rainstorm.

"Banxia, ​​do you still remember the young master who said goodbye to us on the official road on the day of the heavy rain?" Ding Xirui asked.

"I don't remember. I was in a hurry to see the young lady that day, so no one else paid much attention." Banxia frowned as she recalled what happened that day.

"Okay, it's okay. Chenpi, let's go." Ding Xirui said to Chenpi.

Inside the clinic, Lin Mingxuan heard the sound of wheels and looked up. The curtain of the carriage seemed familiar, but before he had time to think about it, the next patient was already sitting in front of him.

In the carriage, Ding Xirui felt complicated. Her future husband was a doctor who saved lives, and she wanted to be a food doctor. Maybe she could really do it after marrying him. It would be best if they could understand each other before marriage, or even fall in love with each other, but there was no other way. Now she only hoped that he would have good character so that they could get along well in the future.

As for my savior, my current range of activities is really limited and I am powerless to help him. If we are destined to meet again, we will meet again.

Let’s put all these worries aside for now and stop thinking about them. The important thing now is to meet An Yumo.
