Warm marriage

After Lan's departure, Fahrenheit thought about it, but he always felt that he had no idea about this matter, so he told his son Xia Youlin very quickly.

The monthly assessment in the clan is personally presided over by the Patriarch Xia Youlin.He only has one problem, that is, he does not allow anything in the Xia family to be out of his control.To put it simply, it is a dictatorship, a strong desire to control, and a suspicious mind.

With such a character, the deceased old man had no expectations for Xia Youlin.However, the world is unpredictable, and the Xia family still falls into Xia Youlin's hands in the end.

"What? Dafang's daughter-in-law is going to participate in the assessment?" Xia Youlin was shocked when he heard the words, and dared not answer: "What kind of medical skills does he know? Isn't his family a merchant?"

Not to mention Xia Youlin's surprise, even the second wife, Wei Shi, also interjected: "Don't be joking, old ancestor, the assessment within this clan is not just for fun, how can he just participate if he says so?"

Fahrenheit said: "Mother understands this truth, but Mother is not at ease."

Xia Youlin and Wei Shi looked at her, wishing to hear more about her.It's just a businessman's background, how can it make people feel uneasy?

"What you don't know is that the child has indeed studied medicine. The medicinal porridge I showed you last time was made by the child for the eldest daughter-in-law." Fahrenheit said, "I guess in my heart, could it be that he is really talented? Instead of secretly Guess, let him tell me whether it is a dragon or a dog."

Xia Youlin listened, and said slowly: "Mother is thinking for a reason, but my son thinks that you must be thinking too much." The medical skill is not to say that you can learn it if you want to.In addition to talent, one has to be immersed in it since childhood, so it goes without saying that it is hard.

"No matter what, just give him a chance." Fahrenheit thought about it carefully, and felt that he was too worried.Even if Jiang Suhuan really studied medicine, it is not a cause for concern.Could it be that he can still compare with many children in the Xia clan in one fell swoop?

That takes a lot of talent and skill.

"It's okay to give him a chance, so that he can know that the sky is high and the earth is thick." Xia Youlin said, since Xia Youzheng's death, they seldom take care of the big house, because in their eyes, the big house can't make big waves at all.There are other reasons for this, which I will not elaborate on for now.

They talked about this matter and did not shy away from Xue Caiying.

Xue Caiying hesitated about this matter, but she still told Xia Junxi.

"Huh? Suhuan is going to participate in the assessment?" Xia Junxi's reaction was the same as everyone else's, he couldn't believe it. He knew a little more than others, and exclaimed: "He has never studied medicine at all!"

Xue Caiying covered her mouth and said, "Is this true?" But she learned from Huashi that Jiang Suhuan had indeed studied medicine.Could it be that Jiang Suhuan hid it too deeply, even Xia Junxi didn't tell.

"Could it be that you are talking nonsense, how could he take part in the assessment?" Xia Junxi didn't believe it, he knew Jiang Suhuan too well, he was so innocent, and actually knew nothing.

"I'm wronged, how can I talk nonsense with such words?" Xue Caiying swore: "I heard what my ancestors said, and my father and mother were there at the time. I can't be wrong, right?"

Xia Junxi's expression changed, and he hesitated, "Is this really true?"

Xue Caiying nodded vigorously: "It's true!"

Xia Junxi was silent for a long time, and said in a low voice: "What is he trying to do, so that I almost don't know him anymore..."

"Maybe, he hasn't been honest with you at all. He hides many things from you. The him you know is not him at all." Xue Caiying said: "Such a person is too scary."

Although Xia Junxi believed in his own feelings, Jiang Suhuan really couldn't understand him for so long.I have to admit Xue Caiying's statement: "Maybe."

He didn't want to worry about these things, and his attitude of no longer pursuing the bottom line was really what Xue Caiying wanted.She was very grateful for her decision this time, otherwise how would she have known about Xia Junxi's change of attitude.

When Xia Junxi decided to gradually forget about Jiang Suhuan, his father Xia Youlin found him and said to him: "Junxi, you also have to participate in this assessment. Keep an eye on the big room, and never let him stand out."

Xia Junxi was startled, and said calmly, "Father means that you don't want him to make a name for himself in the medical field?"

Xia Youlin said: "Yes, no matter whether it is within our clan or outside, he must never be allowed to stand out." If necessary, Xia Youlin is not afraid to break the oath and take action against Jiang Suhuan.

Anyway, as long as it doesn't hurt people's lives, it's not a slip of the tongue.

"Father, I understand." Xia Junxi said silently.

After sending Xia Youlin away, he revealed his annoyance and paced back and forth in the room.

Seeing this, Xue Caiying asked, "Cousin Junxi, what did father tell you?" She wasn't there at the time and didn't know.

"It's nothing... I'll go out for a while, you can rest yourself." Xia Junxi said, shook Xue Caiying's hand and walked out of the room.

Since leaving the big house that time, Xia Junxi set foot here for the first time.The servant girl here, Xiuping, was uneasy when she saw him, fearing that he would cause trouble, so she greeted him with a smile: "Young master, it's so late..."

"Is Jiang Suhuan here? I want to see him." Xia Junxi said directly.

Xiuping's face turned blue, she knew about the incident last time, and now Xia Junxi came looking for someone again, no matter how you look at it, it's not a good thing.

"Go!" Xia Junxi said angrily.

Xiuping didn't dare to say no, so she bit her lip and agreed, "Master please wait a moment."

Xia Junxi waited in the flower hall without sitting down.In fact, he couldn't sit still. Apart from the assessment, it was also about Jiang Suhuan.Xia Junxi had to admit that he was a bitch.The more he can't get it, the more he dismisses him, the more he wants to get it.

It was time for dinner. Jiang Suhuan and Xia Junqing had just finished eating when they heard Xiuping say, "Master Huan, Master Junxi from the second room is here to see you and is waiting outside..."

Both Jiang Suhuan and Xia Junqing were shocked, and said in unison: "What is he doing here?"

Xiuping shook her head and said, "I don't know, he didn't say anything."

Jiang Suhuan fell silent, thought for a while and said, "Go and say hello first, I'll be right there."

Xia Jun looked at him with displeasure: "What are you going to do? It's not good to see you at night." He didn't want Jiang Suhuan to go, not to mention night, even during the day.

Jiang Suhuan said: "It's all here, maybe there is something urgent?" He went to the sink and twisted the handkerchief, wiped his mouth, and washed his hands.He turned his head and said softly to Xia Jun who was secretly sulking: "I'm leaving, are you coming?"

Hearing him asking himself this question, Xia Jun felt a lot better immediately, and said with a smile: "He is here to look for you, you go first, and I will come over later." Although he really wanted to cling to Jiang Suhuan all the time, but this is not the case. Okay, let them say a few words and pretend to be generous.

"There are so many moths, don't come and give up." Jiang Suhuan ignored him and went to the flower hall by himself.

Seeing Xia Junxi standing there with his hands behind his back, he was very curious, stepped forward and asked, "What do you want here?"

He was so direct, without even saying hello, which made Xia Junxi feel very uncomfortable, and said: "Suhuan is really unfeeling." When the old matter was brought up again, the other party was probably tired of it, and he said: "Well, I am here this time, is it I want to check with you."

Jiang Suhuan was not surprised, he had already guessed a little bit before coming, and said: "What's the problem?" Before Lan Shi told him that everything went well, he frowned: "Could it be that you decided temporarily that you don't want me to participate?"

Xia Junxi shook her head and said, "No, I'm here to persuade you to give up the examination, or even study medicine."

Jiang Suhuan was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled: "You are really strange, I have studied well, why should I give up?"

Xia Junxi said: "You don't understand anything, who do you think the Xia family is?" Ever since Jiang Suhuan entered the big house, Xia Junxi had thought about it, sooner or later he would not be able to bear that kind of life.But I didn't expect that Jiang Suhuan not only had an affectionate love with Xia Jun, but also suddenly learned medical skills, and wanted to compete with the children of the clan.

Neither the Fahrenheit nor the Xia family would allow it.

"What kind of family is the Xia family? A family of medicine, right? Since I am here, why can't I join Xinglin? Isn't this a logical thing?" Jiang Suhuan looked at him and said: "Unless you treat them differently, you can just study medicine, I can't study medicine. So I want to ask, why not? There must be a reason, so that I can give up."

Xia Junxi kept silent, of course there was a reason, but how could he say it directly.

"Look, you can't say it, or you don't want to say it. But why don't you want to say it for a fair reason? It can only show that your reason is not fair. If it is not fair, why should I listen to you?" Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Jiang Suhuan continued: "Don't rush to persuade me, I know that you have some good intentions in this move, but let me tell you, I will not give up on studying medicine."

Xia Junxi was silent for a long time: "Since you are obsessed with obsession, I will warn you. It is impossible for you to succeed in the Xia family."

Jiang Suhuan knew the truth in his heart, so it was not surprising, he just said: "Please go back, no matter what, thank you for your warning."

Xia Junxi shook his sleeves and left, walked to the door and said suddenly: "I will also participate in this assessment."

Jiang Suhuan smiled, it seemed that Xia Junxi thought highly of himself, thinking that if he participated, no one else would stand out.But then again, Jiang Suhuan is also full of confidence in himself, isn't it a kind of self-esteem?

Shaking his head and smiling, he saw Xia Junqing approaching.

When Xia Junqing walked over, Xia Junxi was nowhere to be seen. He asked strangely, "Where is he?"

Jiang Suhuan said: "It's already gone."

Xia Jun was happy when he heard the words, but then he was puzzled: "What is he doing here? This time he walked really fast."

Jiang Suhuan smiled and said: "Just said a few words, well, let's go back."

On the [-]th day, people came and went in the Xia family's house, and all the young people studying medicine in the family gathered here.There is no limit to participating in the once-a-month assessment. Although many people know that they are not strong enough, they still come to gain experience every time.

"Have you heard that the young master is also participating this time?"

"Tsk tsk, he is finally going to get the nameplate. I'm afraid he has made a breakthrough and wants to get the orange plate in one fell swoop."

"What is an orange card? Maybe it's a yellow card. After all, it's the young master..."

Jiang Suhuan walked among the crowd, listening to those people chattering, as if they were talking about Xia Junxi, but he didn't listen carefully, and went to the lobby.This is a large hall with rows of chairs and desks, which must be used to assess disciples.

Xia's disciples came here and sat down with ease.

Jiang Suhuan also found a corner and sat down, and found that there was everything on the table, even pen and ink.

The disciples sitting in their seats did not dare to make any more noise, because Xia Youlin and the elders of the family were all on top.

"Quiet." An elder with a white beard came down and said, "The monthly assessment is here again. This time, there are a total of 32 people participating. As usual, ten people will be selected in one round, and the fastest and best ones will be selected to continue." assessment."

"After the three rounds, the head of the family will choose the questions for the remaining two, and the winner will win." Another elder said.

After finishing speaking, Xia Youlin announced the start of the assessment, and interpreted the first round by the way: "Within two quarters of an hour, complete the incomplete parts of this pharmacological diagram. And write down the efficacy and usage, as well as your own understanding."

32 people, 32 test papers were distributed to everyone one by one.

After waiting for a while, the elder struck a gong, and the assessment began.

Jiang Suhuan took a serious look at the examination paper in his hand, it was indeed an incomplete pharmacological diagram, but it was not too difficult.As long as anyone who reads the complete book of herbal medicine frequently can complete it.The biggest difficulty is the efficacy, usage and comprehension, but Jiang Suhuan writes quickly and doesn't think long.

Two quarters of an hour, that is, only half an hour.This time is enough to say that it is abundant, and it is short to say that it is indeed short.When Jiang Suhuan put away his pen, the gong over there rang.

"Stop." The elders came down to collect the papers.

Use the fastest speed to review and approve the papers, and get the ten worst people.Three of them didn't complete it within [-] minutes, so they just brushed it off.Although the other seven people completed it, but they didn't answer well, they also brushed it off.

"The remaining 22 people will enter the second round of assessment and write silently." The elder said: "Within two quarters of an hour, write the No. 12 formula of "Synopsis of the Golden Chamber", the seventh formula of "Treatise on Febrile Diseases", and "Materia Medica". "No.20 party, "Danxi Xinfa" No.30 five parties."

As soon as the topic was announced, Jiang Suhuan heard the surrounding children making noise for a while, and seemed to be dazed.

This topic is really difficult. Even if I remember the prescription, I can't remember which prescription it is.

But for Jiang Suhuan who can write medical books silently, this is not the most difficult.Within two quarters of an hour, it was barely completed.Fortunately for him, he has read all these books.

Xia Junxi, who was sitting in front of Jiang Suhuan, was shocked to see Jiang Suhuan writing vigorously from the corner of his eyes.He felt that the other party was either scribbling, or...

He never believed that Jiang Suhuan could really complete it.

At the same time, Xia Youlin, who was observing from above, also thought the same way. He read Jiang Suhuan's answer paper in the first round, and the writing was perfect and impeccable.He thought Jiang Suhuan was just a fluke, but he didn't expect that Jiang Suhuan still seemed to be doing well in the second round.If you go on like this, you will start to pay attention in the third round, and you must find a way to brush Jiang Suhuan down.

When everyone had different thoughts, Jiang Suhuan put down the pen, picked up the paper and dried the ink marks.

"Stop." The elder rang the gong and came down to collect the papers.

Xia Youlin went to see Jiang Suhuan's paper for the first time, only feeling shocked and jealous.

"Patriarch, is this Junxi's paper?" Seeing that he was so nervous, the elders thought he was holding Xia Junxi's paper.

"No, Junxi's paper is here." Another elder smiled, and said while reading: "It's well written, it seems that Junxi has indeed improved a lot."

"This test paper is also good, so whose is it?" They didn't remember that there were so many outstanding children in the clan, or they would have gone to get the nameplate long ago.

Xia Youlin put away the paper with a dark complexion, and said, "Go to the third round."

The elders approved the test papers, and the ten who were poorer were selected. There were still eleven people left on the scene, and they entered the next round of assessment.

"Please wait outside, the third round is pharmaceuticals."

Hearing the elder's question, Jiang Suhuan felt relaxed.He thought that the third round would be some abnormal question, but he didn't expect it to be so simple.

On the school grounds outside, there are rows of tables and cases with pharmaceutical tools and medicinal materials on them.

Eleven people stood on their respective desks, waiting for the elder to come up with a question.

"What I'm going to do this time is Xiaogan Fupi Pills. The time is still two quarters of an hour." After the elder said, he knocked on the gong, and the hourglass began to count.

Everyone's scalp is numb, this is Xiaogan Fupi Pill, there are 23 kinds of medicinal materials to be treated.There are so many and complicated herbs prepared on this table, I'm afraid many people can't tell what they are.

I saw that Jiang Suhuan's hands were fast, and he immediately picked out the available medicinal materials from the pile of medicinal materials.When he found a few unused herbs in this pile of herbs, he felt cold, but he didn't lose his mind.He looked at the others quietly, and gave up the idea of ​​going to them to borrow medicine.

He never thought that this assessment would end smoothly, and the members of the Xia family would definitely hinder it.If this is the case, then it's okay, I'm afraid that some irreversible mistakes will happen in the last round.

Making this pill according to the prescription naturally requires so many medicinal materials, but if you change it yourself, you can also make another pill that has the effect of eliminating the liver and strengthening the spleen.

Jiang Suhuan made a decisive decision and quickly selected medicinal materials from them to prepare for medicine.

Two quarters of an hour passed in a flash. At this time, honey had to be boiled, flour milled, and blended at the same time. Everyone was doing it very fast.

Jiang Suhuan used tangerine peel instead of bupleurum, citrus aurantium instead of rotundum, and rehmannia root instead of angelica, making this Xiaogan Fupi Pills perfect.After two quarters of an hour, most people still haven't finished, but the time has come.

"Stop." The elder rang the gong to make the disciples stop.

When an elder saw the result, he stroked his beard and said, "It seems that this time the problem was more difficult, and most of the people failed to complete it." He picked up a disciple's pill, smelled it, tasted it, and said with a smile: "Even if it is completed, it will be different."

As an old pharmacist who has been immersed in the pile of medicinal materials all year round, he knows what medicinal materials are in it as soon as he tastes it.

"Hehe, Sixth Uncle, Junxi Xiaogan Fupi Pills are very good. Come and try them." An elder stood in front of Xia Junqing's desk. He had already tasted Xia Junxi's pills, and they were obviously very good. .

"Let me take a look." The sixth uncle came over, and was satisfied after tasting it, but he didn't praise it very much.

He looked at Jiang Suhuan's table case. This was the last disciple who completed the task, but he had never seen it before. He came to Jiang Suhuan and asked, "Young man, what's your name?"

Jiang Suhuan replied: "Old uncle, the younger generation is called Jiang Suhuan."

"Oh? Surnamed Jiang?" The sixth uncle thought embarrassingly. Isn't this the daughter-in-law married by Xia Junqing of the big house, but he didn't expect that he could also be medical. He looked at the pill made by Jiang Suhuan and said, "You have studied medicine? Hmm?" , and did a good job."

In fact, he didn't know much about those nonsense things, and he was focused on medical skills. Now that he saw Jiang Suhuan's foundation was good, he was willing to say a few more words to him: "Let this old man see how well your pill is sitting."

Jiang Suhuan said politely: "Please."

The sixth uncle picked up a pill, put it in his mouth and tasted it, the more he tasted it, the brighter his eyes became: "My boy, you have already reached this point of entry. Not bad." But his face straightened: "It can be seen that you have a good background. , but this is an assessment, if you are not careful, you will lose the opportunity, you should be more cautious, not arrogant."

Jiang Suhuan hurriedly said: "What the old uncle taught is that the younger generation is willing to listen to his teachings." He didn't mention the lack of medicinal materials, so it's better not to mention it at this time.

"Well, that's right. From now on, be honest and work steadily, and you will achieve something." Sixth Uncle didn't easily praise the younger generation, but today he made an exception and praised a daughter-in-law who married in from outside.

He went back to discuss the result with the elders, and told Xia Youlin the result.

Xia Youlin was surprised: "Is there any problem with his medicine?" But he obviously took away the three medicines.With the qualifications of the elders, they will not fail to show up.

Uncle Six said: "It's not a problem, that kid is showing off, but it's harmless."

Xia Youlin was puzzled: "Show off?"

Uncle Liu smiled and said, "Yes, it's okay to leave the medicine on the prescription and find a few medicines to replace it."

Only then did Xia Youlin know that Jiang Suhuan had used other herbs instead.He made a mistake, he only focused on taking away the herbs on the prescription, without considering whether other mixed herbs could be used.

"This last round is the competition between him and Junxi." The sixth uncle said: "I thought Junxi won the first prize this month, but I didn't expect Jiang Suhuan to run away temporarily. Hehe, it was also a surprise."

Xia Youlin remained silent, since Jiang Suhuan had passed the assessment of many elders, he could not object: "Then, let's go to the fourth round."

At least he was responsible for the fourth round of questions. He broke into a cold sweat, and this time he could finally clear Jiang Suhuan easily.

Jiang Suhuan was not surprised when he knew that only himself and Xia Junxi were left in the last round. He quietly waited for the last question.

I only heard Xia Youlin say: "The fourth round, the last question, please make the fifth prescription of "Fahrenheit Medical Communication" within two sticks of incense."

Jiang Suhuan's eyes tightened, while Xia Junxi remained silent.

"Fahrenheit Medicine" is the secret recipe of the Huashi family, except for Xia Junxi and Xia Youlin, it is impossible for the rest of the Xia's children to learn it.

Jiang Suhuan was even more impossible, so he had to give up this competition and quit the medical profession.Either give it a go and make the last dying struggle!

In short, it is a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
