Chapter 40 The boys who used to take a bath in those years

As for the doctor who graduated from the teacher, people don't feel at ease looking at it!Therefore, most people still go to the well-known local pharmacies to see a doctor.

Bai Suzhen was not in a hurry, no one came to see a doctor during the day, so she started to teach Xu Xian medical skills.

Perhaps Xu Xian really had some talent for studying medicine, at first he was a little distracted by Bai Suzhen, but after a while, he became more focused.After a peaceful year like this, some scattered customers came to the door.The prescriptions prescribed by Xu Xian can be said to be a cure for simple ailments such as fever and cold.Bai Suzhen didn't open a medicine shop to make money, the price of medicinal materials is set fairly, not just inferior ones, and the price can be regarded as affordable.Gradually, more and more people came to see a doctor.

Year after year passed like this, and the three of them gradually got along harmoniously.

Xu Xian sees a doctor every day, and discusses with Bai Suzhen from time to time.Xiaoqing hired two assistants, one was in charge of collecting medicine and the other was boiling medicine, which greatly reduced Xu Xian's burden.Bai Suzhen saw that he was gradually blocking his side, so she gradually reduced the number of times she showed up. At this time, almost all the pharmacies were dominated by Xu Xian.

Seeing this, Tang Momo couldn't help asking: "Miss Bai, is the centipede evil man appearing soon?"

If you ask Tang Momo, compared with the TV series of White Snake, real life is extremely bland!No bad guys showed up, and the two snakes and one of them just went to see a doctor, get medicine and discuss medical skills every day!Except for Xu Xian who accidentally twisted his foot when he went out to see a doctor half a year ago, there was no twists and turns, just like ordinary people.

Compared with TV dramas with twists and turns and big and small bosses, real life is really nothing to watch.

[Mr. Tang, you watch too many TV shows! 】Bai Suzhen's voice came over, 【There are many temples near Hangzhou, and they have been in order for thousands of years.Although there are monsters and ghosts appearing from time to time, everyone knows the rules and must not disturb ordinary people!Occasionally, those who are not good-looking and want to do evil with their own magic power have already been dealt with by those monks.It was shown on TV that whenever a monster appeared, I would clean it up. How is this possible? 】

"Why is it impossible?" Tang Momo asked.

[The monks also need to practice their hands!On weekdays, we monsters and goblins are very disciplined, and finally a thorny head appears, and they are definitely going to catch up with the demons and eliminate them!Why do you think they came out for alms when they had nothing to do?Monks don't eliminate demons, Taoists don't kill demons, how can they improve their cultivation?What reason do you use to dig out the goblin cave to find treasure? 】

"This..." Tang Momo suddenly realized, "Slaying demons and eliminating demons is a popular job. Monks and Taoists are rushing to do it, and you can't compete with them for performance."

【exactly! 】Bai Suzhen explained, 【There are fewer monsters making trouble, and more monks fighting monsters. How can I be so short-sighted to compete with others for jobs. 】

Tang Momo nodded, expressing his understanding.He suddenly thought of another person, and quickly asked: "Miss Bai, from the tone of your voice, it seems that you are very familiar with the monks nearby! What about Fa Hai? Have you ever had any festivals?"

According to the current situation, Tang Momo can see that Bai Suzhen has no intention of marrying Xu Xian at all!

As for Xu Xian, although many people have come to be matchmakers in the past few years, he has rejected them all. If this continues, I am afraid that when Xu Xian's life is over, the two of them will not be together.If this is the case, then the famous flooding of Jinshan Temple in later generations and the white lady's eternal town of Leifeng Pagoda will never happen.

This is really strange!

Tang Momo has interviewed so many times, although each time the real story is very different from the legend, but this is the first time that it is completely different.This made him suspect that in the Legend of the White Snake, except for opening a medicine shop, everything else is fiction.

Bai Suzhen sighed quietly, 【Of course I know Fa Hai.I have cultivated for thousands of years, and I am considered a demon clan with some morals. Do you think I have never paid homage to the mountain when I want to settle in Hangzhou?Before I entered Hangzhou, I had already met him. Xiaoqing and I were looking for Xu Xian's reincarnation everywhere. We thought we couldn't find him in Hangzhou, but we met by such a coincidence.Fa Hai also knew about the fact that I wanted to repay my kindness, and he was even more clear about opening the medicine shop. 】

"Didn't he stop you?" Fa Hai was really confident with a thousand-year-old monster living in his territory.

【Why stop me? 】Bai Suzhen chuckled softly, 【Zen Master Fahai can be said to be a person who is three points more shrewd than a monkey spirit!It is the law of heaven for me to repay my kindness, and he has no reason not to let me repay my kindness.And opening a pharmacy is a good thing to save people. He might even ask the people under him to help me if there is nothing to do.This not only conformed to the will of God and gained some merit, but also sold my favor to me!Don't I have to pay back this favor in the future? 】

【If I rely on magic power to cause chaos, then he will be even happier!Suppressing thousand-year-old monsters, if he can do it, what a merit!He is making money left and right, and he won't stop me at all.On the contrary, every few years I will discuss Buddhism with him, and the two of them will confirm the problems in practice, and the relationship between them is not bad. 】

"...Which ones in the Legend of the White Snake are true?" Tang Momo said in distress.

Bai Suzhen paused for a while before speaking quietly.

[You will know when you continue to read. 】

☆, Dragon Boat Festival

Climbing the heights in midsummer, Shunyang is on the top, and the annual Dragon Boat Festival is here.

There was laughter everywhere, and people gathered by the lake, cheering loudly for the dragon boat race.

Xu Xian entered a rouge shop with a smile.

"Doctor Xu, what do you want to buy?" The lady in charge of the store greeted her enthusiastically, she glanced at the things Xu Xian was carrying, and said clearly, "Oh, they are all for the girl's home, this is for shopping." For your sister?"

"This." Xu Xian nodded guiltily, "Ma'am, what is your best makeup?"

"Hey, doctor Xu, you are such a good brother. Come on, let me introduce you..."

After a while, the dizzy Xu Xian had another package in his hand.As he walked towards the pharmacy, he thought about it.Miss Bai doesn't like too fancy fabrics, so the latest brocade from Xianyifang is good.Although it is a white background, beautiful peony flowers are embroidered with a light pink color on it, which looks exquisite and elegant, making it the most suitable for a white girl to wear.Miss Kanbai doesn't like those gold and gemstone hairpins on weekdays, and only uses a snake pattern jade hairpin all year round, which is really frugal and housekeeping.He asked someone to re-make the hairpin, and the pattern was a dexterous little snake.

After Xu Xian became more famous, his purse gradually swelled up.He is not a person who likes to spend money recklessly, and he doesn't spend much on weekdays. Except for some gifts for his sister and brother-in-law, he basically saves it.The year before last, he found a piece of good jade, and now he made a hairpin and a jade pendant, thinking that if Bai Suzhen nodded, and the two of them happened to have one piece, it would have a good meaning.

Whether Bai Suzhen is willing to agree or not, Xu Xian is actually not sure.

But after getting along for so many years, he saw that Bai Suzhen didn't seem to have any intention of starting a family, and he was secretly worried, "Miss Bai is good at everything, but she doesn't care about her life. He said, what do you say that Miss Bai doesn't marry, she must not come from a decent family, it's really abominable!"

As Xu Xian walked, he greeted people he knew.

"Hey, Miss Bai, Miss Bai, what are you thinking?" Xu Xian walked unhappily, and suddenly smelled a scent.His nose twitched twice, his heart moved, and his steps stopped abruptly. "How is this wine sold?"

"This is authentic realgar wine. It contains real realgar wine." The old wine seller on the roadside shook Xu Xian with a spoon, and the aroma became more intense. "This is authentic realgar wine that has been dried for fifteen days. Those bad wines that have been mixed with water are completely different! My guest, it’s just the right time to drink realgar wine during the Dragon Boat Festival, why don’t you bring two jugs to drink with your family?”

Xu Xian thought for a while, what he was going to do later, wouldn't it be necessary to drink a few sips of wine to strengthen his courage?He never drank alcohol on weekdays, for fear of affecting his visits to see patients, but today is a holiday, "Old man, just have a pot."

"Okay, you take it, guest."

Back at the pharmacy, the two workers went home for the holidays, Xu Xian carried a bunch of things into the back room.

Xiaoqing looked at him, smiled and greeted him, "Come here, why did you bring so many gifts all of a sudden." Xu Xian handed her the things, leaving only the little snake hairpin, and he looked back Look, and asked in a low voice, "Where's your sister?"

"My sister went to Jinshan Temple to worship the Buddha early in the morning, and I'm afraid I won't be back until later." Xiaoqing brought a few plates of fruit with a smile, "Come and eat, this is a fruit that can't be eaten in Hangzhou, I entrusted it to you." Someone brought it, you have a taste."

Xu Xian didn't refuse, picked up a piece of fruit and put it in his mouth. As Xiaoqing said, it tasted very special.But when he thought of what he had prepared, his heart went up again, as if he was hanging in the air, not knowing whether he was about to ascend to the sky or fall to the ground, for a moment, he couldn't help but sighed.Xiaoqing was flipping through the presents brought by Xu Xian, and seeing his frowning face, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Why are you sighing, my sister hasn't said anything yet, you just look like the sky is falling, it's really nothing Manly."

"Miss Qing, don't make fun of me, you, what did you just say?" Xu Xian was taken aback.

"Aren't you coming here today to ask your sister for marriage, and to test her first?"

"How do you..."

"Go, what are you doing with those big eyes? It's scary!" Xiao Qing sat on the chair next to Xu Xian, crossed her legs, "You can't hide your little thoughts from me, maybe even my sister can see it. gone."

Xu Xian was startled, "This...even Miss Bai knows about this? Could it be that she knows that I want to come to the door today, so she goes out to avoid me?"

"What a face you have, I want my sister to avoid you!" Xiaoqing rolled her eyes, "My sister will be back later, I have already booked a table at Qingxiang Building, and you can go outside to sort out the medicinal materials when you are free. My sister is back, let's have dinner together. Don't be afraid, even if my sister doesn't agree to you, she won't agree to others. "

"Oh, oh." Xu Xian walked out of the backyard in a daze.

When it was dark and Bai Suzhen came back, she saw a person standing inside the pharmacy.The man was just wiping the medicine cabinet with a rag in a daze. Not only that, the whole medicine store seemed to have been cleaned carefully, there was no dust at all, and everything was shiny.

"Master Xu, who is this?" Bai Suzhen lit the lamp, and found that Xu Xian was staring at her blankly, so she couldn't help asking.

Xu Xian looked at Bai Suzhen.

Maybe it's because she came back from the temple, Bai Suzhen looks a little different today.Although she has a beautiful face, she doesn't have the slightest trace of human fireworks, and now she looks more like a cold-hearted fairy in the sky.Xu Xian and Xiaoqing dared to chat and laugh, but they didn't dare to be rude to Bai Suzhen.

After several years of getting along, the love in his heart gradually deepened.Sisi love, like dust falling from the sky, covered Xu Xian's heart bit by bit, layer by layer, although it was not strong, it never stopped day and night.One day when he overheard a woman secretly speaking ill of Bai Suzhen, saying that she couldn't get married, Doctor Xu, who was always good-tempered, lost his temper.

At that time, Xu Xian knew that he couldn't wait any longer.

Bai Suzhen looked at Xu Xian.

The youth with a flowery face on the broken bridge back then has grown into a young man dressed in green.The expression on his face was slightly sad, but the emotion in his eyes was still so strong.As a doctor who stayed indoors for many years, Xu Xian was a little weak, but his back was straight, as if he could carry the burden of life, giving people a sense of stability and reliability.

Dr. Xu, with excellent medical skills and kindness, is a well-known kind person in Hangzhou. Neighbors, patients, and ladies who have not left the cabinet all say so.

But today, Xu Xian was a little different.

There was something else in his eyes, something that Bai Suzhen had never seen before, that made Xu Xian's eyes so bright.He didn't even need to say a word, Bai Suzhen understood the meaning.

With a slight sigh in her heart, Bai Suzhen said, "Master Xu wants to marry me?"

"Exactly!" Before Xu Xian could say a few more words, he heard Bai Suzhen speak calmly.

"I am a thousand-year-old snake demon, do you still want to marry me?"

"want!"

The firm and fast answer surprised Bai Suzhen, she moved her nose slightly, and suddenly called Xiaoqing.

"She's drunk." Xu Xian said shyly.

"Realgar wine?"

"Yes, I was sorting out the medicinal materials outside, but I heard Miss Qing shouting a few times inside, so I went in to have a look..."

Before she finished speaking, Bai Suzhen immediately walked towards the backyard, Xu Xian quickly followed behind her.

In the backyard, a huge green snake was curled up into a ball and sleeping soundly. From time to time, a few drops of saliva fell to the ground. The most striking thing was a quilt covering the green snake.

The contrast between the small quilt and the huge green snake's body is both comical and somewhat dumbfounding.

Seeing Bai Suzhen staring at the quilt, Xu Xian explained nervously: "It's not good for a girl to sleep on the ground, and it will be more difficult for her children after her waist and abdomen get cold. After Miss Qing turns into a snake, I can't see where she is." So I covered the cup to her seven inches. I think the seven inches of the snake is a very important place, so it should be right to cover it.”

Tang Momo, who was watching from the sidelines, looked at Xu Xian speechlessly.

Bai Suzhen was also obviously silent.

Looking at her complicated eyes, Tang Momo felt that maybe the next moment she couldn't help but complain: "It's not the point to cover the quilt or something! You are blind! There is such a big snake here, how could you Go up and cover her with a quilt, and you are worried that she will not be able to conceive a child due to a cold stomach! We are all snake demons, you should worry about whether you will be eaten, so cover yourself with a woolen quilt!"

Seeing that Bai Suzhen remained silent for a while, Xu Xian became more worried.

He glanced at Xiaoqing worriedly, and asked timidly: "Could it be, is it really wrong?"

Bai Suzhen took a deep breath, and said with difficulty, "That's right."

Tang Momo couldn't help but praise, Miss Bai is really well-mannered!Thousands of years of practice are not for nothing.

"Aren't you afraid?" Bai Suzhen looked deeply at Xu Xian, perhaps, she had never understood this man before.

Xu Xian shook his head, "I'm a doctor, how can I be afraid of snakes, although this snake is really big. But it's better to be bigger, you see, the gallbladder of ordinary snakes is only so small, if every snake is as big as you , the snake gall, snake blood, snake heart, snake skin, and snake bone and snake meat, there are enough parts that can be used as medicine to treat diseases. Many patients will not be..." Xu Xian suddenly paused when he said this .

A bean-sized drop of sweat ran down his forehead.

Tang Momo couldn't help shaking his head and sighing!

It seems that whether it is an ancient otaku or a modern otaku, the skills of picking up girls are similar. In a word, it is worrisome.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Miss Bai, I didn't mean that." Xu Xian hurriedly explained, and with a "pa", the back of his hand brushed against Bai Suzhen's chest.

"..."

"Miss Bai, please forgive me!" Xu Xian immediately knelt down.But when he knelt down, because he miscalculated the distance between him and Bai Suzhen, he suddenly pressed down on the girl's shoe, and in shock, with a strong hand, Bai Suzhen's shoe was taken off by him.

Xu Xian knelt on the ground, looking at the shoes in his hand.

There was another brief silence.

The shoes are white, with beautiful peony flowers embroidered in light pink, which is both exquisite and elegant.Xu Xian was disappointed for a while. It turned out that Miss Bai already had this style of material, and she actually bought a lot of it!It really shouldn't be!

Looking at Xu Xian who was in a daze, Bai Suzhen sighed.

She spared Xu Xian straight away and walked to Xiaoqing's side.

The green snake who was greedy for drinking didn't know the predicament facing the two sober people at this moment, she was sleeping soundly, Bai Suzhen looked at her face injury and showed a helpless smile.

She left a note for Xiaoqing, and covered Xiaoqing's huge snake body with illusion.If someone accidentally broke in, all he could see was a pile of big stones in the middle of the yard.Then Bai Suzhen called the five ghosts to tell them to keep an eye on the store door, and then pulled Xu Xian to leave through the back door.

Xu Xian was very happy.

Bai Suzhen took him to a place where no one was around, this was a real hand in hand.Bai Suzhen's hands were small and soft, making Xu Xian's heart full of tenderness and sweetness.

This tender feeling didn't last long before it was blown away by gusts of wind.

Xu Xian looked at the pedestrians who had become the size of small ants under his feet, and the breeze and white clouds rushing toward his face, his heart palpitations and dizziness hit him at the same time. "Miss Bai, can we fly lower? Slower?" Xu Xian found it really difficult to talk while flying.As soon as he opened his mouth, his stomach was full of cold wind, and it seemed that every time he uttered a word, some saliva jumped out along with the words. "It's my first time flying so high, I have no experience, Miss Bai..."

"It's here!" Bai Suzhen pulled Xu Xian to the ground.

As soon as the cover-ups he used to prevent being accidentally seen by mortals looking up at the sky were withdrawn, Xu Xian found that the surrounding scenery looked familiar.

"This is, Jinshan Temple?" He is not as keen on worshiping Buddha as Bai Suzhen, but he has been to such a famous place in Hangzhou as Jinshan Temple a few times, so he recognized it immediately. "Miss Bai, what are we doing in this temple?"

"Follow me!" Bai Suzhen didn't explain, but turned around and walked towards the path in the mountain.

Xu Xian hurriedly followed, and saw the small path winding upwards, which seemed to lead to the back door of the temple.

☆、Zhuang Zhou's Dream Butterfly

Wearing torn lotus clothes, laughing at the west wind blowing me, and falling to the West Lake again.Those who drink in the lake in the past, who are you with now?

Xu Xian looked at the fisherman on the West Lake fishing boat with a smile. The fisherman was at ease, wearing a bamboo hat in the drizzle in early spring, sitting on the bow of the boat and fishing as steadily as Mount Tai. "This old man is really good looking. I would be ashamed to be a commoner." Xu Xian shook his head, raised his umbrella and was about to go home when he bumped into a girl in green.

Xu Xian hurriedly took two steps back, saluted and made amends.

The girl hadn't brought an umbrella, and her clothes were a little wet, so Xu Xian handed her an extra umbrella.After the girl thanked him and asked his name and address, she ran to the willow tree beside her.Under the willow tree, a woman in white was covering the raindrops with her hands. Seeing that the girl in green had borrowed an umbrella, the two of them whispered a few words and looked at Xu Xian together.

When Xu Xian saw the woman in white, he felt that he couldn't see anything else.

It is full of purples and reds, and loses its color.

"It's strange, why is that girl so kind?" Back home, Xu Xian flipped through a few pages of medicine scriptures, and became distracted in a rare way.

Perhaps the two were really destined, and they met several times afterwards.

Xu Xian learned that the girl's surname was Bai, and she came to Hangzhou from another place to join relatives.After coming and going, the two became acquainted, and Xu Xian's biological sister fell in love with her younger brother when she saw her younger brother leaving early and returning late.When he learned that he had a close relationship with a girl surnamed Bai, his sister was so worried that she couldn't sleep at night, for fear that her brother would meet someone like the legendary skinny horse.

After a few days, Bai Suzhen's medicine store opened.

Xu Xian's elder sister took advantage of the excitement and went to the shop to have a look. When she came back, she was all smiles and didn't mention the topic of "skinny horse" or "fat horse".I just wanted to find someone to ask for a good day, and let my ineffective younger brother go to propose marriage.

Happy days always go by quickly.

A few years passed quickly, and the two went through all kinds of experiences, and finally got married officially.Not long after marriage, Bai Suzhen became pregnant with Xu Xian's child.Dr. Xu, who is a father, is a hundred times more considerate than usual.

Pregnancy is hard work, no matter if you are a human or a demon.Seeing Bai Suzhen's belly getting bigger day by day, both Xiaoqing and Xu Xian are extremely careful.

The dragon boat is rowing, the glutinous rice is fragrant, and it is the Dragon Boat Festival again.

Xu Xian supported the potbellied Bai Suzhen for a walk in the backyard. Xiaoqing thought that there were too many people outside and it was hot, so she sent her servants to buy some food and drinks for the festival.The servant wanted to please Miss Qing, so he bought a few more jugs of authentic realgar wine.

Now it's a big disaster.

Xiaoqing thought that she had practiced for a hundred years at least, so why should he be so afraid of it!So he hid behind the rockery in the garden and drank one after another.

Drunk, dizzy, dizzy, dizzy, like the feeling when a young snake took a bite of drunk fruit.Xiaoqing couldn't help turning into a prototype and wandering around the yard. The rockery couldn't bear her weight, and collapsed with a "bang".Xu Xian, who had heard the sound, was stunned when he saw such a huge green snake. Before he could react, his face turned cold. The slender snake tongue licked his head, and his hair was wet. Drooling.

The huge fangs and bloody mouth approached his face abruptly.

"There's a snake!" He only had time to call out before he fainted.Coincidentally, there were a few rocks where he fell, and he fell straight onto them.

In a daze, Xu Xian only felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, but he didn't know anything.

When Bai Suzhen came in, she saw Xu Xian lying in a pool of blood, lifeless.

"No! Your husband!"

Bai Suzhen clutched her stomach and slowly fell beside Xu Xian, the blood on the ground stained her plain skirt.The originally shallow plum blossoms turned bright red, she stretched out her hand and stretched out a ray of magic power, which woke up Xiaoqing who was sleeping.

Seeing that she had committed such a disaster, Xiaoqing also panicked.

"My husband can't die!" Bai Suzhen looked at Xu Xian who was on the ground, touched her stomach and made a decision.In the past few years, she and Xu Xian have never quarreled with each other in the face, and Xu Xian is extremely considerate to her, and the love between husband and wife also makes her unable to ignore death.What's more, wouldn't it be too pitiful if a child with this belly was born without a father?

"Yes! Sister! We have to find a way to save Mr. Xu!" Xiaoqing said tearfully.Old age, sickness and death are the normal state of life. Xiaoqing originally thought that Xu Xian would die after decades, or died of old age or being pissed off by unfilial descendants, but she never thought that he would be scared to death by herself. "Elixir, let's steal some here, sister!"

"Immortal Grass?" Bai Suzhen's heart skipped a beat.

The nearest place to here is the territory of the Antarctic Immortal. He is not on his own mountain all the year round, and he likes to go to the ice fields far to the south to practice.He only comes back every winter solstice, bringing bags of gifts to distribute to children around Hangzhou. "It's not too late, let's start now. There are only two cranes guarding the Shendan Mountain of the Antarctic Immortal, so let's go quickly to pick it up."

"Yes! Sister."

The two secretly flew to the territory of the Antarctic fairy and successfully stole the celestial grass.

Seeing Xu Xian whose complexion gradually turned rosy after using the fairy grass, Xiaoqing was relieved, "This fairy grass is really useful, this time thanks to the fact that the guards on the fairy mountain are not those powerful deer spirits, otherwise we would It’s not going to be that easy.”

Xu Xian's breathing gradually became even.He slowly opened his eyes and saw Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing who were looking at him with concern. He suddenly remembered what happened before he fainted. He held Bai Suzhen's hand in a panic and said eagerly: "Miss, go quickly, There is a snake, what a big snake!"

"Sanggong, what nonsense are you talking about? Where did the snake come from?" Bai Suzhen said in surprise, "Why did you fall in the yard, which frightened me and Xiaoqing?"

"No snakes?"

"No, where are there any snakes!" Xiaoqing said, "We run a medicine store, so there will be snakes that don't have long eyes and dare to come in, and you won't be able to make medicinal materials by Dr. Xu!"

"This..." Xu Xian was slightly puzzled.Bai Suzhen touched his forehead, "Master, I think you hit your head, just rest for a couple of days and you'll be fine."

Xu Xian still wanted to say a few more words, but for some reason, a sense of drowsiness came over him, and he only felt that his eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand catties.After a while, I fell into a sweet sleep.

Both snakes breathed a sigh of relief.

"Finally got it over with."

Xu Xian never mentioned this matter since then, which made Bai Suzhen feel relieved.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, it will soon be Qixi Festival.

On the morning of Qixi Festival, Xu Xian drew Bai Suzhen's eyebrows and blacks for the first time.His hands were steady, and he gently traced on his wife's willow eyebrows. "Sir, are you painting the eyebrows of the distant mountain?"

"Yes." Xu Xian looked at Bai Suzhen, and said softly: "The eyebrows are like a distant mountain with black hair, the skin is like peach blossoms and smiling, the hair is like floating clouds, and the pupils are like stars. These distant eyebrows are most suitable for a lady."

"Master, what's the matter with you today, suddenly you are so elegant?" Bai Suzhen looked at the woman in the mirror, her frowns and smiles were naturally extremely beautiful.But the man beside her, although handsome in appearance, had a slightly sad expression on his face at this time, as if he was trapped for some reason.Seeing Xu Xian's expression, Bai Suzhen was startled, and hurriedly raised her head to look at him.

"What's the matter?" Xu Xian smiled back at her, and his tone was the same as usual.

Maybe it's my own illusion?

"It's nothing." Bai Suzhen shook her head, "Sir, haven't you decided on a name for our child?"

"Why not call it Angelica?"

"What angelica? It's better to call Gastrodia elata!" Bai Suzhen said, "Master, you have read too many medical books." Seeing Xu Xian joking with ease, her heart was completely relieved.

Because although it was a holiday, Xu Xian was ready to go out after breakfast because someone made an appointment yesterday.

"My lady, I'm going." Xu Xian, wearing a green shirt and carrying a medicine box, said softly to Bai Suzhen, "Take care of yourself."

"Understood, I will be careful." Bai Suzhen gently stroked her belly. "Be careful on the road, go and go back quickly."

"Ah."

The green shirt gradually moved away and disappeared into the crowd.Bai Suzhen felt a pain in her heart for no reason, as if she was about to lose something very important.She frowned tightly, and when she was about to count her fingers, she was interrupted by a visitor from the emergency room.

After seeing the patient, he was busy, and it was already past noon.

Seeing that there was no one in the pharmacy, Bai Suzhen simply closed down for a day to cook with her own hands, cooking a table full of dishes.

West Lake Vinegar Fish, Longjing Shrimp, Fish Head Tofu, and West Lake Brasenia Soup are Xu Xian's favorite dishes.

One of the most troublesome dishes is the beggar's chicken.In order to make the chicken taste better, Bai Suzhen ran to a nearby mountain and brought back two pheasants.Bai Suzhen stuffed the chicken belly with shredded shiitake mushrooms, shredded onions, ginger, garlic and other seasonings.Then wrap it with fresh West Lake lotus leaves picked by Xiaoqing, and finally wrap it with authentic Shaoxing wine leftovers and wine jar mud mixed with salt water.

She put the wrapped chicken on the charcoal fire and simmered slowly, so that the original juice of the chicken could not go away, and the chicken was tender, mellow and delicious.

This table of food was ready, and it was already sunset time outside.

Bai Suzhen used a spell to keep warm and repel insects, and chatted with Xiaoqing to pass the time.

It was dark, and the bright candles were lit.

"Sister, is something wrong with Mr. Xu?" Xiao Qing was a little worried.

Bai Suzhen shook her head. After Xu Xian died and came back to life, because the fairy grass was not a mortal thing after all, he thought that after being eaten by mortals, there would still be a lot of medicinal power contained in his body. Not only would his lifespan be much longer than ordinary people, but he would never have illness.Not only that, but even his face has changed, the original meager fortune has become a face of auspicious stars, so Bai Suzhen is not worried that he will encounter any accidents.

"Sister, why don't you do the math?" Xiaoqing said.

"Let's wait a little longer." Bai Suzhen said suddenly, and sat back in the chair, staring at the beautiful beggar chicken in a daze.

Xiaoqing's heart skipped a beat suddenly, and an ominous feeling flooded her heart.

Sister is this?

After the three candles burned out, Xu Xian still did not come back.

Xiaoqing took a peek at Bai Suzhen's face, but was surprised to find that there seemed to be tears in the eyes of her usually calm and calm sister.

"Sister, where did Officer Xu go?"

"he's gone."

"Go?" Xiaoqing was a little confused, "Where did he go?"

Bai Suzhen shook her head slowly, and repeated, "He's gone."

Xiaoqing was stunned for a moment, looking at Bai Suzhen's expression, she seemed to understand something and seemed to understand nothing.That Xu Xian really left?Just left my sister and his child?This is too incredible.

Suddenly, a burst of anger burst out of Xiaoqing's heart. She slammed the table and said bitterly: "The heartless man, sister, since you figured it out, why don't you just let him go? What will you and the child do?" ? Sister, where is he? I'll catch him!"

"It's useless."

"Why is it useless? Although we want to repay the favor, we are not fools who let others bully us. Are you not good enough for him? Take money to open a pharmacy for him, teach him medical skills, and serve him with delicious food and drink on weekdays. This man actually Just left without saying a word! Do you really think we are ordinary weak women who are easy to bully?" Xiaoqing really couldn't swallow this breath.

During these years of messing around in the world, she more or less saw a lot of things.

It is not uncommon for mortal men to betray their hearts and abandon their wives.But Xiaoqing didn't expect that her sister, a snake spirit who had practiced for thousands of years, would encounter such a thing.She gritted her teeth secretly. Although human flesh was not to her taste, it was fine to have a meal once in a while.

Bai Suzhen didn't answer, but raised her chopsticks, slowly picked up a piece of chicken and fed it into her mouth.

Well-cooked chicken is naturally delicious.

She chewed carefully, but the tears slipped down quietly.

"He's at Jinshan Temple." Bai Suzhen said.

"Jinshan Temple?" Xiao Qing was taken aback, "Could it be that monk Fa Hai was behind the scenes? Our sisters have never been in touch with them, so why is he meddling in your business with Xu Xian?"

"It's not that he wants to be nosy, I guess, it's my husband who went looking for him." Bai Suzhen didn't wait for Xiaoqing to ask any more questions, and directly took out something and put it on the table.

It was oval in shape, and at first glance it looked like a very thin piece of jade.Like emerald green, glowing coldly in the candlelight.When Xiaoqing saw this thing, her face turned pale immediately, and she grabbed it in disbelief, "This is... this is my scale!"

"After my husband left this morning, I felt uneasy. After closing the store, I went to our house to find my husband's sweat towel for a fortune-telling fortune, but I found that he put it in my dressing box here." Bai Suzhen put down her chopsticks, and said quietly, "He has already discovered our identities."

"Sister, you mean?"

Bai Suzhen nodded, "I'm afraid he picked it up that day."

"But we obviously cleaned it up with spells."

"Spells are not omnipotent, and there are always times when there is always a secret." Bai Suzhen said, "That day, my husband had already become suspicious. He is a doctor himself, so he naturally knows that it is not so easy to get dizzy."

Xiaoqing asked in surprise, "Sister, you mean, we let him get better too quickly, which aroused his suspicion instead?"

"Exactly. When he becomes suspicious, he will naturally go to the yard to take a closer look. The scale probably fell into a gap somewhere. When the husband got the scale, he already knew our identity."

"Then why didn't he leave at that time and insisted on waiting until now?"

Bai Suzhen stood up, opened the window, and the moonlight shone like silver frost. "He was giving himself time to adapt. In the end, he still couldn't accept who we were and chose to leave."

"We won't bring him back?"

"Hey..." Bai Suzhen sighed, but didn't answer.

The moonlight is like water, and the years are like a shuttle.

Xu Xian's son, Xu Danggui, grew up gradually.
