Painting Doctor Jinhua

"That's what happened!" Back in the alley where he had agreed to meet Xiao Xian, Ling Ye told Xiao Xian everything he had seen.

Feng Dong was stunned after hearing this.

"That's how it was. You didn't do anything, but they dealt with the dozen assassins by themselves, and tied them all up in the fishing net? A young lady, a little boy..." Feng Dong shook his head repeatedly, unable to believe it. "When did they prepare the fishing net? And how did they trap these assassins in the fishing net?"

"I don't know, it has nothing to do with me!" Ling Ye replied.

“Hey, you…” Feng Dong was a little angry when he saw his cold tone.

Xiao Xian interrupted: "Feng Dong, Ying is our friend, not a slave. You should show some respect to him when speaking to him!"

"Yes, Langjun!"

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave!"

Ling Ye didn't say much. After handing the silk given by Xiao Jinyu to Xiao Xian, he left without saying another word.

"My dear, why does he have such a bad temper..." Feng Dong couldn't help but complain.

Xiao Xian shook his head and said, "He is also a pitiful man!"

"Just him, and still pitiful?"

"Yes, he never served two masters in his life, but his master has passed away. I am afraid he will live in darkness for the rest of his life!"

So when he was asked about his name, he just answered lightly with the word "Ying".

"But, my dear, I never thought that the young lady could not only cure diseases, but also have this ability!"

Yes! Being able to evade the pursuit of Princess Yunyin’s assassins for nearly a month, and finally turning from a fisherman to a fisherman, catching the enemy in the net, such a skill... I can’t imagine that it came from the hands of a fifteen-year-old girl, and all this had already been expected by her!

So when he first went to her appointment, she dared to say such words...

Xiao Xian couldn't help but laugh secretly.

"Let's go! To the Early Spring Courtyard!"

……

Early Spring Courtyard was the place where Xiao Xian had his first appointment, and it was also the first residence that Xiao Jinyu found when she arrived in Jiankang City. It was not far from the Xiao Mansion, separated by a street. The courtyard was built on the bank of a lake, with a stilted bamboo house in it. The willow branches in the courtyard were like waterfalls, and the pear blossoms were like snow.

When the wind blows, the bells under the eaves jingle.

"Very alert!"

Xiao Xian smiled and sighed secretly. Suddenly, he smelled a strong fragrance in the wind. Even Feng Dong couldn't help but sighed, "What's that smell? It smells so good!"

As he said that, he couldn't wait to push Xiao Xian into the courtyard, and saw a large round iron pot placed in a pavilion. There was a roaring flame under the pot and steam rising above the pot.

Xiao Jinyu was eating with Fenghuang. A little maid was busying around, scooping food from the pot and placing several small white jade plates on the table. The delicacies on the plates were emitting a faint aroma of meat.

"It's delicious! So delicious!" Phoenix ate with big mouthfuls and praised.

"A Xiu, come and have some too!"

"No, the girl is the master, and Ah Xiu is the servant. Ah Xiu is not allowed to eat with the master!"

"My brother Qing asked you to come, so come. If you don't want to sit at the same table with us, then eat somewhere else!"

Amid Fenghuang's somewhat impatient rebuke, the little girl named A Xiu finally plucked up her courage with a red face, took a plate of food and walked to a stone bench nearby to start eating.

"My lord, the fragrance just now came from this pot, right? It smells so good!" Looking at this scene, Feng Dong couldn't help but move closer to take a look. Suddenly, he remembered that he was a servant of a lord of a wealthy family after all, and he couldn't lose face for his lord, so he held back.

"Hey, it's the young master of the Xiao family!"

Everyone seemed to notice Xiao Xian's arrival just now!

Xiao Xian nodded politely, looked at Xiao Jinyu, and took out a piece of silk.

In fact, there was nothing written on the silk, only a word "Spring" was embroidered on it. Xiao Xian knew that the message Xiao Jinyu asked Ling Ye to take was just to ask him to come again for an appointment.

"Are you okay?" The moment he saw Xiao Jinyu, Xiao Xian couldn't help but have tears in his eyes and asked softly.

"Xiao Lang, do you think I'm a bad person now?" Xiao Jinyu asked jokingly.

Seeing her smile, Xiao Xian couldn't help but also smiled slightly.

"Xiao Lang, don't you want to ask why I asked you to come here today?" Seeing that Xiao Xian had not spoken for a long time, Xiao Jinyu couldn't help but ask first.

"Even if I didn't ask, you would tell me, right?" Xiao Xianyi said jokingly.

Xiao Jinyu nodded with a smile, and suddenly said: "Yes, please open your mouth!"

Xiao Xianwei was stunned. Just as he opened his lips, he saw a tiny black object bounce into his mouth and melt instantly like a stream of sweet cold spring water.

"My dear husband!" In the blink of an eye, Feng Dong had no time to react before he saw Xiao Xian swallow the flying pill. He looked at Xiao Jinyu anxiously and asked, "My dear husband, what did you feed me?"

"Your husband has had a poor appetite for many years and has difficulty swallowing food. I just gave him an appetite-stimulating pill!"

Feng Dong was overjoyed when he heard this, and then he asked in surprise, "Really? Young lady, how come you even know that my husband has had a poor appetite for many years? Young lady, you really deserve to be called a miracle doctor!"

"So, I asked Xiao Lang to come here today to have dinner together!" Xiao Jinyu looked at Xiao Xian again.

"Just having dinner together?" Feng Dong couldn't believe it.

Xiao Jinyu smiled again and said, "Of course, wouldn't a noble man like Xiao Xianlang be unwilling to eat at the same table with me?"

"Of course not!" Xiao Xian interrupted, "I just didn't expect..."

She didn't expect that the Xiao family treated her and her mother like tigers and wolves, but she could repay him with such kindness.

As if guessing his doubts, Xiao Jinyu smiled softly again: "The Xiao family is the Xiao family, Xiao Xian is Xiao Xian, I said that I am not a person who likes to ask for things. Today you are willing to lend a helping hand, even if I don't need it, I will not take this kindness for granted."

"please--"

"Well, the young lady is really a kind person!"

At Xiao Jinyu's signal, Feng Dong pushed Xiao Xian to the table, but saw that the table was full of fish and meat, as well as some other meat that he couldn't tell what it was. He couldn't help but lower his head and said, "But, young lady, my husband never eats fish. He feels like vomiting after eating fish..."

"Just because you couldn't do it before doesn't mean you can't do it now!" Xiao Jinyu interrupted, "Ah Xiu, serve a bowl to Xiao's young master and wait on him to eat!"

Ah Xiu was still a little dazed, then she said yes and brought a plate of fish that had just been taken out of the pot to Xiao Xian.

It’s Xiao Lang!

He is Xiao Lang, the man who fascinated thousands of girls in Jiankang City and was named the most talented person in Jiankang in a Zhongzheng examination at the age of fifteen!

Ah Xiu's face turned red instantly.

Feng Dong saw that Ah Xiu was staring at him in a daze, so he quickly snatched the bowl from her hand and asked, "My dear, do you want to eat? Otherwise, I'd better hold it farther away, I'm afraid that if my dear sees it, he will want to..."

After saying that, he was about to take the bowl away, but at this moment, he heard Xiao Xian say, "No need, give me a pair of chopsticks!"

"My dear, what did you say?" Feng Dong was a little bit unbelievable.

"Give me a pair of chopsticks!"

"Yes!"

As if he just realized it, he tremblingly picked up a pair of chopsticks and handed them to Xiao Xian. He picked up one of the white fish fillets and slowly put it into his mouth.

For a long time, Xiao Xian's expression was a little frozen. Feng Dong thought: It's over, it's over, my husband must want to vomit again!

While thinking, she called out, "Quick, quick, bring the wash basin to my husband!"

At this moment, Xiao Xian said, "No need—" and then took another piece of fish into his mouth. After eating, he looked at Xiao Jinyu and said, "Not bad, a delicacy!"

Feng Dong immediately opened his eyes wide and stared at Xiao Xian without blinking:

"My dear, are you serious? Can you eat fish now?"

Xiao Xian looked at Xiao Jinyu and nodded with a smile.

"Can I have another bowl?"

Another bowl?

Oh my god! Feng Dong was overjoyed: "That's great. My dear, normally he only eats one or two bites of anything, let alone fish, and drinks porridge. Now that my dear's appetite has improved, is his illness about to heal?"

"Yes!" Xiao Jinyu replied.

"You girl are a real miracle doctor, a real miracle doctor!" Feng Dong said with tears of gratitude again.

Xiao Jinyu smiled and said nothing. She motioned Ah Xiu to bring another bowl of meat to Xiao Xian and said, "This is sparrow meat. Xiao Lang, have a taste too!"

"Can we eat bird meat?" Feng Dong couldn't help but ask.

"Why can't you eat it? Just because you haven't eaten it doesn't mean it can't be eaten!" Phoenix continued.

Xiao Xian didn't say anything, but picked up the chopsticks and started tasting again.

At first he chewed slowly, but later he ate most of the bowl of sparrow meat.

Feng Dong opened his mouth wide, unable to move his eyes away. He smelled the strong fragrance and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

Until Xiao Jinyu said, "A Xiu, give Feng Dong a bowl too!"

He finally came to his senses and waved his hands, saying, "No need, young lady, I'm just a servant, I don't want to eat!"

"There is no such rule here!" Xiao Jinyu interrupted.

"Feng Dong, go eat!"

Only after Xiao Xian's gentle instructions did Feng Dong take a bowl of sparrow meat and start devouring it.

"It's delicious, so delicious, young lady. I didn't expect that you are not only an excellent doctor, but also a great cook..." Feng Dong swallowed in big mouthfuls while praising, "I have never eaten such delicious food in the Xiao Mansion!"

“If it’s delicious, eat more!”

Suddenly, the courtyard was filled with laughter. Xiao Xian watched Feng Dong, Feng Huang and A Xiu gradually become friends, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

But this smile was very shallow, and carried a hint of sadness.

"Xiao Lang seems to have never really laughed?" Xiao Jinyu asked suddenly. In Xiao Xian's inexplicable astonishment, she said, "It seems that the cause of Xiao Lang's illness is not in his body, but in his heart!"

"Yes! Young lady, you are right. Since I followed my husband, I have never seen him laugh out loud!" Feng Dong said, and asked innocently, "Young lady, can you cure this?"

It was originally a joke, but Xiao Jinyu unexpectedly replied:

"Of course, I can heal!"

While Feng Dong was stunned with his mouth wide open, she looked at Xiao Xian and added, "Starting tomorrow, I will make Xiao Lang laugh for real, and laugh heartily!"

Xiao Xian suddenly raised his eyes to look at her, and heard her say: "But please don't interfere with my current affairs for the time being, Xiao Lang, just protect yourself, I need your help in the future,

Also, please rest assured that I will ask your Xiao family's mistress to respectfully invite me back!"
