Chapter 15 Yes, I am Yingge
Chapter 15 Yes, I am Yingge
"Liu Abao, what are you doing?"
An angry shout interrupted Liu Abao's next words.
"What are you doing? You've seen and heard everything, haven't you?"
"I'll introduce your future little fiancé to them."
"Huh, what nonsense are you talking about."
Yingge saw that among a group of young girls sitting around the brocade picture, there was a girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old. The girl was wearing a white gown and a pair of shoes inlaid with pearls. She was frowning slightly on her round and innocent face, looking at Liu Abao angrily. This look, if her hair was let down, hmm, she would look a little familiar. Oh, isn't this a replica of the young master of the Chen family?
Yingge already had a rough guess in his mind.
The other girls around Miss Chen also looked at Liu Abao with a common hatred.
"I'm talking nonsense. Have you all forgotten the bet we made when we were watching the football match? What? Don't you want to admit it?"
"Yingge, let me tell you, you won a young lady from a noble family and a good wife through a football game."
Yingge looked at this farce, a group of little kids. She bowed to everyone, broke free from Liu Abao's pull on her sleeve, turned around and walked out.
When the young ladies saw this, they all put down the fans and flowers in their hands.
Miss Qi pulled Liu Abao's sleeve and said, "You are too naughty. Look at what is going on now."
"Besides, you come from a military family and you don't mind small matters, but the other people present here are not like that. How can you bring a foreign man here?"
"Yes, yes, if my mother and father knew about this, I'm afraid they would scold me again."
"Yes, yes, how could you do this? This is a bit too shameless."
Yingge had already walked to the door, and when she heard what the young lady from the Qi family who spoke first said, she wanted to say something, but then she closed her mouth again. It was good for Liu Abao to suffer a little, otherwise she would always do things without measure, and who would be able to tolerate her temper in the future.
"You guys are really funny. You were all present when we made the bet. How come the loser doesn't have to bear the consequences? And she agreed to all of this herself. How come I am the sinner in the end?"
"I am just trying to mediate the fight. This is not about the face of someone else's family, nor the face of the Chen family. It is your own family. You can make the decision. Why don't you go back and ask your father first?"
Yingge had already reached the stairs and thought, it would be best if they could decide the winner, but this matter should not involve her. These girls seemed to be quite smart, they should not take these things upon themselves, they should not, they should not, they should not.
As Yingge walked downstairs, she heard someone calling her.
"Master Yingge, Master Yingge."
Yingge looked up and saw that it was Doctor Li whom she hadn't seen for many days.
"Master Yingge, are you here to watch the dragon boat race as well? Have you found a good seat? If not, come to my place."
"No more watching, I've seen enough, I want to go back first."
"Go back, isn't the second round just starting?"
"Well, I won't read anymore."
"Is it true that he doesn't watch it anymore, or is it because someone else said so? Who knows?"
"Just now I saw her being led to the private rooms of the young ladies from the noble families upstairs. Now she came out alone and left early. I'm afraid she was kicked out by someone."
Doctor Li also heard the discussions of the people around him. He pulled Yingge's arm and said, "Come, come with me to the third floor. I don't need anyone to accompany me."
"Dr. Li invited me so kindly that Ying dared not refuse. But I really don't want to stay any longer now. I still want to go back first."
"Since we are leaving, I will tell you about this matter first. The pill you provided last time was quite effective. You didn't tell me even though you knew it. So how about I name it Nu'e or Yougui Pill?"
"Not very good. You decide the name of the medicine."
"Hongzhuang, Qing'e, let's call him Youguiwan to avoid any hidden dangers for you."
"Master Yingge, I met you today not only to invite you to watch the dragon boat race, but also to discuss some specific matters with you."
"How about we go down to the third floor and sit down and talk?"
"Okay, you're welcome then."
Third floor, private room.
"To be honest, I asked Master Ying to come here today because I want to ask about the Yougui Pill. I'm not going to lie to you, but the Yougui Pill is now very famous and has spread to the capital. There are important people over there who want to take it, so I want to know the details."
"Hurry up, hurry up, it's about to start."
The voices of Liu Ziheng, Su Qingyu and Su Qinghe came from downstairs.
"Hey, I think I saw Yingge just now. I seemed to see the third floor with Doctor Li. Am I dazzled?"
"The competition may have to wait a while. The governor hasn't arrived yet, so we have to wait a while."
"Hey, I also saw the young master of the Chen family. Look, he's here too."
"That clever little villain..."
"There are many people here today, so please be careful with your words, Brother Ziheng." Liu Ziheng was about to say something when he was interrupted by the young master of the Qi family.
"Hey, look, the person following Doctor Li, isn't that Yingge?"
"She is the only one with this figure. She is thin and short."
The boys were about to step forward to greet Yingge, "Brother, Miss Chen called Master Chen."
The little girl's eyes were rolling with tears in them.
The young master of the Chen family saw that his sister was obviously being bullied.
"What's wrong? Who bullied you? Tell me?"
"You're the one who bullied me. You lost the game, and I lost the bet, too."
"Young Master Chen, stretch out a finger and tap Miss Chen's forehead. If you have something to say, please speak clearly."
"What you said is true. I did lose the game, but I didn't ask you to bet with others while you were watching from below."
"Tell me, what do you want as compensation this time, vegetarian food or rouge from Rouge Building."
"Brother, I don't want anything, but I might be sorry for you."
"What do you mean, what did you do?"
The companions who came with them also pricked up their ears and eavesdropped.
"She may be a relative of our family in the future, and you will be her uncle."
"What, what the hell, what uncle?"
"That's right. I made a bet with Liu Abao. If I lose, Liu Abao will transfer her young fiancé to me and let Yingge be my fiancé. So, don't you become her brother-in-law?"
The Zhou people burst into laughter when they heard this. "Oh, there is more to say about this matter."
"What nonsense are you talking about? What's going on?"
Miss Chen, who was behind the palm-leaf fan, said in a whimpering voice, "When you were competing, that Liu Abao deliberately angered me, and then I fell into her trap and agreed to the bet."
"You are just fooling around."
"I thought it was a joke, but Liu Abao dragged Yingge to our private room. They didn't think it was a joke."
"They even told this story in front of so many people. How can I go out in the future? If I don't go back now, they will laugh at me if I stay any longer."
"Hmph, don't be afraid, I will go and tell her."
As Miss Chen was speaking, her servants also described what had happened, adding some exaggeration to the story. Their description was very vivid and emotional.
"It's okay, sister. I'll make the decision for you. I'll go up to her and tell her that she can't marry the girl from aristocratic family just because she wants to. At most, we can just play a basketball game."
After the young master of the Chen family left, the maid came forward and asked Miss Chen: "Miss, do you think the young master and his men will agree to another match?"
"Whether she agrees or not is their business. Anyway, I have brought it up. If there is another match, then we can watch it again."
This is the third floor.
Yingge sat behind a pillar on the third floor facing the window. It was an excellent position. She looked at the governor speaking below, which was neat and tidy without any delay.
Well, he is still a good leader. Unlike some modern officials, they spend half a day speaking at the opening ceremony, which is boring.
"Hey, have you heard that Mr. Hu is sick again?"
"Then, Yang Hanfeng, shouldn't Minister Yang be promoted again?"
"Haha, haha, haha, you really know how to tell a joke."
Yingge was completely confused.
As a person who walked on the street like a beggar as soon as she opened her eyes, and finally found out that she was a poor boy from the countryside who lived with rich relatives and who only wanted to be a martial arts master, the things she came into contact with were really limited. What did the affairs of the court have to do with her?
"Brother Ying, do you know Lord Hu of the imperial court?"
"From their conversation just now, he should be a high-ranking official in the court."
Doctor Li stroked his beard and said half-jokingly, "Yes, second only to one person, but above ten thousand people."
"Then he must be a saint."
"how do I say this?"
"Since ancient times, those who feared their wives were all saints and wise men."
As soon as these words were uttered, Doctor Li, who was eating peanuts, choked and all the peanuts that had just entered his mouth spat out.
It was not until she saw him coughing uncomfortably that Yingge stepped forward and patted him on the back, and then a bean was knocked out.
"Haha, hahaha, haha, Brother Ying, what you said is..."
"Doctor Li is old now, so you should follow the rules of diet and avoid certain foods."
"What do you mean by a regular diet? I don't know, but the next time you speak, I'll know that I can't eat granules or anything like that anymore."
"Master Ying, you are not very old, but you have read a lot."
"Well, maybe. I often tell my husband that I might be the reincarnation of Wenquxing. I know a lot of things by myself. After all, I am the protagonist of this world."
The sentence just now is not something she should read at her age.
The gongs and drums were deafening, and the atmosphere was extremely lively. The long-awaited second round of Dragon Boat Races on the Dragon Boat Festival was about to begin. In the large private room on the third floor, there were an old man and a young man sitting. Judging from their age, they should be the elder and the younger, but from what everyone could see through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, they should be peers.
The old man was in a good mood and laughed heartily, while the young man was neither humble nor arrogant, and had a calm attitude, showing no sign of restraint at all when talking to his elders.
The old man is the highly respected Doctor Li, who is familiar to everyone in Mo City, and the young man is Yingge, who is not fully understood by everyone.
Of course, everyone was also guessing who this person was that could make Dr. Li so happy.
"In this grand occasion, Doctor Li is taking a break here. Oh, who is this young man?"
Doctor Li introduced Yingge's identity to everyone who came forward one by one. Then he heard the people who came to ask questions introduce themselves as the young master of the Wang family, the young master of the Li family, the young master of the Liao family, the young master of the Wei family... All of them were young men in their teens to twenties, and like Yingge, they were invited to come up and watch the dragon boat race together.
The annual dragon boat race is a place of entertainment for scholars and literati, and many poems and songs are written every year to record it.
There were many people coming and going, and the noise took a while before it finally calmed down.
"Doctor Li, come on, let's continue with the topic just now. So who is this Hu Gong, and what is her relationship with that Lord Yang?"
"Speaking of this, we have to talk about who this Mr. Yang is."
"Then tell me, who is he?"
Mrs. Li laughed before she said anything.
"Hey, Doctor Li, I haven't said anything yet, so you can't say it's my fault this time."
"I don't say it's your problem. I don't say it's your problem." After saying that, Doctor Li laughed again.
"Doctor Li, do you like me so much? You must like me very much today, otherwise why would you keep laughing even though I didn't do anything today?"
These words made Doctor Li, who had already been unable to bear it any longer, burst into laughter again.
"Brother Ying, I decided to see you more often in the future, so that I can at least be 5 years younger."
"My effect is so great, I can even make people look younger!"
"Isn't it? It's really a pleasure to chat with you."
"Hey, I feel like you're a child."
"Have I already told you? I am the reincarnated Wenquxing."
"Okay, stop, stop, let's talk about Minister Yang."
"Speaking of which, Minister Yang was originally a famous young talent of the next generation of the Yang family in the capital. During the Yunluoshan battle, his entire family was punished by the court for failing to protect the crown prince. Although he was finally saved by other families, he is now the only one left in the entire Yang family. Forced by life, he found a place called Qingqiu Road."
"Don't be fooled by the name. In fact, the place is full of yellow sand. It used to be a beautiful place, but a few years ago, a land dragon turned over and instantly turned a place with beautiful mountains and water into a place full of yellow sand, mosquitoes and poisonous gas."
"It is said that Mr. Hu was on a business trip and passed through a post station when he suddenly fell ill..."
"As for this demoted Yang family member, he lived in the slums for many years, and somehow he got a chance to become a minor official in this small post station."
"Such a drama, a high-ranking official, a low-ranking official who was once a descendant of an aristocratic family, you can imagine the opportunity."
"Well, have you thought of any new story now?" Doctor Li said jokingly.
"Could it be that this is the scene of Jie Zitui cutting off his own flesh to save his master?"
"Well, well, well, young hero."
"Who is this hero you're referring to?"
"This hero refers to you."
“So you heard others say that he was the one who cut his flesh to serve the Lord.”
"This world is bustling with people all seeking profit. Fame, wealth and honor have been the battlefields of human struggle since ancient times. Whether one can soar into the sky depends on one's own ability." Yingge said sarcastically.
"Now, these words have become a drama of great loyalty and deep love between master and servant."
"I just said that the Yougui Pill sent to the capital was the one that saved this Lord Yang."
"Oh, so, you must have made a lot of money. Remember to give me half of the money when you get it."
After Doctor Li said this, he just kept looking at Yingge without saying anything.
This Minister Yang had a very bad reputation among the people and officials, but the young man in front of him did not show any emotion after hearing this, and it was impossible to guess her true thoughts. Most people would sneer when they heard that they or others were giving medicine to this person who cut his flesh to save the Lord, but this young man was different.
Young people should be full of blood, and men should be filled with righteous indignation.
This situation left Doctor Li a little confused.
"If you keep watching, I will eat you up."
Yingge responded to Dr. Li's doubts by using the slogan of a modern beverage advertisement.
"As a doctor who saves lives and heals the wounded, shouldn't you treat patients equally? Doctors should have a kind heart.
Compassion helps the world. Practicing medicine is indifferent to personal gain, and virtue is better than gold. This is the impression people have of this profession. "
"However, I cannot judge this matter as a doctor, but there is one thing I should think about in advance."
"What?" Doctor Li asked curiously.
"In order to avoid being given a bad nickname when we enter the Imperial Hospital in the great capital, why don't we come up with one ourselves? Once you say it, people will say, 'Hey, here comes the imperial physician who cuts off his own flesh to save the savior.'"
"This is too derogatory. It's detrimental to your reputation. It's detrimental to your reputation."
"Ha ha ha ha......"
In the viewing room on the third floor, laughter was heard again. People downstairs and around were all curious about what good thing had happened to the doctor today. The laughter was heard continuously, could it be some great news?
The Dragon Boat Race of the Dragon Boat Festival finally officially began, just when Dr. Li’s laughter had just stopped.
