Chapter 258 Extra Five (Pei Zhuo): Portrait

 As soon as the cold dew passed, the weather suddenly turned cooler.

In the evening, the lanterns in front of Renxin Medical Center lit up.

Lu Chen just packed up the medicine books on the table and put the unsold patent medicines on the medicine shelf. The shelf was too high, so he reached up on tiptoe. He stretched out a hand from behind and put the jar of patent medicines in her hand on the medicine shelf. On the medicine shelf.

When he turned around, Pei Yunying was standing behind him, picking up the lantern on the table.

Lu Chen looked at the time and was a little surprised: "Why is it so early today?"

"I have been on duty for two consecutive days. I can leave early today." Pei Yunying held up the wind lantern and took a photo of the bed inside. The shop inside was empty, no one was there.

He looked around and asked, "Where are the others?"

"Looking at a shop in the south of the city."

After Lao Miao left, Lu Zhuo sat at Renxin Medical Center.

Sometimes in my spare time, I also try to develop some new recipes. However, writing new prescriptions now is probably due to the influence of Miao Liangfang and Ji Xun, as well as Chang Jin's previous advice at the medical hospital. Now the medication is much gentler. But even so, the new patent medicines released in medical clinics are still highly praised by patients.

In addition, she once served in the Hanlin Medical Academy. Although she later resigned due to physical discomfort, she became famous in Shengjing for a while because of Pei Yunying. It has simply become the living signature of Renxin Medical Center.

How could Du Changqing miss this perfect opportunity? He immediately found someone to find a shop on Qinghe Street in the south of the city, specializing in selling patent medicines, called "Renxin Medicine Shop".

However, the sign of "benevolent heart" is worthy of its name in West Street, but it is not so "benevolent" in Qinghe Street.

The same patent medicine was more than doubled in price if the jar and wooden box containing the medicine were replaced. Yin Zheng once tried to persuade her tactfully whether this was not a good idea, but Du Changqing refuted it confidently.

"Can the rent of the shop in the south of the city be the same as the rent on West Street? What's more, the shop on West Street is my own shop. Besides, you don't understand the thoughts of rich people. If you make this medicine cheaper, they won't be willing to buy it. I suspect you are not a good product!”

"Listen to me, the price increase is correct!"

Although Du Changqing may seem careless at times, he has a good grasp of the rich's thoughts. As the price of patent medicines rises, more and more people buy medicines. One is willing to take the medicine while the other is willing to suffer. It is hard for others to say anything. But the business in the south of the city was good, so Yin Zheng, Du Changqing and Acheng couldn't help but go over to help.

Lu Chen lowered his head and came out of the back shop. Pei Yunying took the medical kit for her and asked, "Then why don't you go?"

"Don't you know," Lu Huo replied, "I hate powerful people the most."

She answered seriously, and Pei Yunying stared at her for a while, then said in a deep voice: "What you said makes me feel a little dangerous."

Lu Yan handed him a cup of tea. He took it and drank it with his head down.

"Why did you drink it without asking what it was? Aren't you afraid that I would poison it?"

Pei Yunying smiled, leaned close to her ear, and whispered: "Doctor Lu gave it to me, so I have to drink the arsenic."

Lu Chen: "..."

This person is always like this, even though they have been married for a year, he still likes to tease her on purpose. Sometimes Lu Zhen was amazed by his words and wondered what the front office clerk taught all day long.

He glanced at Lu Zhen's expression and coughed lightly: "It's still early. Since Yin Zheng isn't here, why don't you go out for a walk?"

There were no extra medical records to sort out today, and there was nothing to do at night, so Lu Zhu nodded: "Okay."

The east side of Panlou Street is much deserted since it is not the Qixi Festival.

It's autumn again, the night is desolate, and many vendors have gone home. However, it was not crowded when there were few people shopping. As Lu Zhu and Pei Yunying were walking, they saw a small stall of cars in front of them.

The owner of the stall is a little girl, not very old, eleven or twelve years old at most. Maybe she wants to sell out as soon as possible and go home quickly. Finally, she sees tourists passing by, and she enthusiastically solicits: "Jewelry beads, the last few. "Sister," she raised her head, looked at Lu Huan who was passing by, and said with a smile, "Come and take a look at my jewelry. I'll give it to you at a cheaper price."

Lu Zhen paused, but before he could speak, Pei Yunying walked to the stall and raised his eyebrows at her: "Choose one?"

Lu Zhen laughed in his heart.

When she and Pei Yunying were facing each other **** for tat, she always felt that this person was not kind and had a hard heart. Later I realized that Pei Yunying was a soft-hearted person. Every time he passed by on the street, there were often old women and children setting up stalls, and he would buy the stall owners' things so that they could go home as soon as possible.

In the past, he said, "It's always the bad guys pretending to be good guys, why does Dr. Lu do the opposite?" In fact, this sentence should be given to himself.

Fortunately, all the gadgets I bought were given to Baozhu in the end, otherwise I might not be able to keep them at home.

She walked to Pei Yunying and looked down at the things on the stall.

Most of the beaded jewelry had been sold, and there were only a few scattered earrings. However, she didn't wear earrings, so she brushed a few earrings away with her fingers, and saw a corner of wood exposed under those earrings. Lu Yan stretched out his hand and pulled out the earrings. He picked up a wooden comb from under his earrings.

The wooden comb was curved like a half-moon, lying small in the palm of his hand. Pei Yunying lowered his eyes and looked over, and suddenly said meaningfully: "It's the comb."

"Yes." She responded, suddenly reacting, and raised her eyes to look at him.

Pei Yunying looked at her leisurely.

He didn't say anything, but Lu Chen suddenly felt guilty.

At that time, on the night of Chinese Valentine's Day, she and Pei Yunying went to Qiqiao Tower, and thanks to his blessing, they found a golden magpie and exchanged it for a comb. After investigation, combing the leaves is of great significance. Then when she rejected Pei Yunying, she simply told him "thrown it away."

I used to do things without leaving any room for error, always feeling that the future outcome was unchangeable, but I didn't expect that now, a few years later, I would really be shooting myself in the foot.

Unable to bear the condemning look of the person in front of him, Lu Zhu pondered his words: "Actually... I didn't mean to..."

He suddenly chuckled.

The words that Lu Zong came to his mouth stopped immediately.

"Why are you so nervous?" Pei Yunying said leisurely, "I'm not that fussy person." Seeing that Lu Zhu was still frowning, he slowed down his tone and said helplessly: "I know you didn't mean it at the beginning."

"How do you know?" She looked up.

"The spies of the Qi family later told me that you were called to Qi Huaying's courtyard alone, so they guessed it." The smile on Pei Yunying's lips faded, and she looked at Lu Huo and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know your situation at that time."

At that time, he was frustrated because of love affairs. Later, he found out what kind of mood Lu Chen had in his arms at that time, rejecting his feelings and living a hard life alone.

Every time I think about it, I feel I owe a lot.

Just as he was thinking about it, Lu Zhu pulled his sleeve and said calmly: "I have forgotten what happened in the past. Anyway, that comb is not good-looking. I think this one is better." She held the comb in her hand and gave it to Pei Yunying. Look, "Buy this one, I'll wear it tomorrow."

He shook his head and laughed. He lowered his head and paid the money. Lu Zhu then put the comb away when he suddenly heard a voice coming from in front of him: "Medical Officer Lu?"

Lu Zhuo looked back and saw a group of people coming down the steps of a restaurant not far away. The leader was an official in official uniform. When he saw the two of them, he ran down the steps without caring about the people behind him and spoke excitedly. : "Master Pei!"

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment: "Master Shen?"

Shen Fengying was wearing official uniform, but he no longer had a sword on his waist like before. His long-sleeved robe was different from the past. Lu Tong looked at the group of people on the steps behind him and asked in confusion: "Master Shen, what is this..."

Hearing this, Shen Feng should be extremely proud.

"I am now the chief clerk of Duquyuan, the lower prison of Sinong Temple. I am in charge of brewing koji for brewing and selling in the inner wine store." He said, "Medical officer Lu, oh no, I should be called Doctor Lu now. You will make wine in your house in the future. Although Come find me."

Seeing that his face was refreshed and refreshed, which was completely different from the tired look on his face when he was patrolling the shop, Lu Chen said, "Master Shen looks good."

"That's right," Shen Fengying said with a smile: "To tell you the truth, I used to work as a servant in the patrol house, with less money and more things to do. Although I still have less money now, I have much fewer things to do than when I patrolled the house. It's dangerous. It's faster to check wine than to check people." Then he looked at Pei Yunying and said with a smile: "Thanks to Pei Dianshuai."

Lu Yan: "Pei Yunying?"

"Duquyuan is short of people, and I was recommended by Commander Pei. Although this position is not high, it is great. Now I can leave on time every evening, which is much better than staying up all night in the patrol house."

Pei Yunying said: "Your passing of the official examination has nothing to do with me."

"That's more or less a favor to Pei Dianshuai," Shen Fengying said, thrusting a small porcelain jar into Lu Zhu's hand without any explanation: "This is the newly brewed osmanthus wine from the restaurant in front of me. It has passed the inspection." Yes, you two can take it back and try it, it’s a little thought from me.”

"etc…"

Before Lu Yan could say anything, he lifted up his robe and ran back up the stone steps. He just said, "This wine is not expensive, so it is not considered a bribe. Don't worry, Doctor Lu."

This man was worthy of being a shop patrolman in the past. His movements were surprisingly nimble, and he hurriedly pulled his colleagues away. Lu Chen lowered his head, looked at the porcelain altar in his hand, and then looked at Pei Yunying.

"Take it." He sighed, "I'll ask someone to send the money later."

"…good."

After wandering around Panlou for half an hour, it wasn't until the night got darker that Lu Chen and Pei Yunying returned to their house.

Yin Zheng had come back to rest. The shop in the south of the city was very busy, so Lu Zhu didn't bother her. Because Pei Yunying still had some official business to deal with, he asked Lu Zhuo to go to bed first, and he finished the paperwork in the study. It was already very late at night.

It was very quiet in Pei's house. When he returned to his dormitory after bathing and freshening up, he saw that there was still no light on the window of his dormitory.

Lu Chen hasn't fallen asleep yet.

He pushed the door open and went in. He saw Lu Yan sitting under the lamp with his chin supported on one hand as if he was napping. He immediately laughed and said, "I didn't tell you to sleep first..." When his eyes glanced at the table, his expression suddenly paused.

There is a porcelain altar tilted upside down on the long table.

That porcelain altar looked familiar. When I met Shen Fengying on the east side of Panlou Street today, he forcefully gave Lu Zhuo some sweet-scented osmanthus dew.

He was startled.

Pei Yunying reached out to hold up the porcelain altar and shook it. It was empty. At that moment, Lu Shuxing turned around, rubbed his eyes and raised his head.

"Did you drink all the wine?" He was stunned.

"It's sweet." Lu Yan gave him a strange look, "Besides, I am immune to all poisons and have a good capacity for drinking, as you know."

Pei Yunying pressed his forehead.

Lu Yan was indeed invulnerable to all poisons. Due to her experience as a medicine practitioner, ordinary wine had no effect on her. At the celebration banquet in front of the palace, Lu Zhuo also participated in the fun. He went out to summon his own kung fu, but when he came back, half of the imperial guards in the palace had been knocked down by Lu Zhuo. It can be said that maybe his drinking capacity has to be inferior to that of Lu Yan.

but…

That was once upon a time.

Since her health has gradually improved, Ji Xun's medicine has taken effect on her old illness, and her previously fearless drinking will naturally be affected. Later, during several family dinners, Lu Zhuo gradually showed signs of being drunk.

But what’s a little funny is that Lu Zhen didn’t show any signs of being drunk on his face. He neither blushed nor said drunken words. His expression was very clear, except for one thing...

That is, she will work extremely hard when drunk.

The first time he got drunk, Lu Yanmo wrote a medical prescription all night.

The second time she got drunk, she spent the night sorting out medicinal materials in the backyard.

When he got drunk for the third time, Lu Zhuo called everyone in the house to get up in the middle of the night and checked everyone's pulse one after another. Even the orbs were not spared.

Later, Pei Yunshu warned Pei Yunying several times not to let Lu Zhu get drunk, which was really scary.

Tonight it seemed like her old habit was back again. Sure enough, before Pei Yunying could say anything, Lu Zhu suddenly grabbed a red pen from the pen mountain, pulled out a piece of white paper and started writing.

"Wait a minute," Pei Yunying held her hand, "...it's too late, why not write it tomorrow."

She frowned slightly and raised her eyes to look at Pei Yunying. Pei Yunying was uncomfortable with her direct gaze. He was about to say more when he was suddenly patted on the shoulder by her.

"You sit down," Lu Zhuo said, "I will draw a portrait for you."

"portrait?"

Lu Chen nodded.

Pei Yunying was confused.

He was good at painting, and when he and Lu Jong were newly married, Lu Jong had a whim and wanted to learn from his calligraphy and painting. He is also determined to teach his wife and create happiness as a couple together. Unexpectedly, Lu Zhen was dormant and calm when it came to revenge, forbearing in planning, but had no patience when it came to learning painting. The painting was a mess, but he just pointed it out a few words, and then she put down her pen and threatened not to learn from it, and then nothing happened. Duan Xiaoyan secretly told him, "I never noticed that Dr. Lu has such a bad temper before."

Lu Zhen is quite irritable, so the fact that she took the initiative to paint for him tonight seemed particularly strange.

"you sure?"

Lu Yan pushed him down in front of the case and sat down, "Sit tight." He returned to the table, laid out the paper, picked up the pen, lowered his head and sketched, it looked like that.

Knowing that tonight would inevitably involve a lot of trouble, Pei Yunying shook her head helplessly and simply leaned back to take a good look at what she was going to do.

Lu Zhuo acted very seriously.

Every time she drew two strokes, she would dip her sleeves into ink. In the quiet autumn night, the warm light fell on her face. After she drew a picture, she looked up at Pei Yunying, her eyes focused, as if she wanted to carve the person's appearance deeply into her eyes. .

He was originally looking at it with a smile, and as he looked at it, he felt a little lost unconsciously.

Time seems to slow down at this moment, and the flickering lights will freeze in the night.

He stared at Lu Yan silently, a feeling of satisfaction rising in his chest, as if he was willing to grow old at this moment. Until Lu Yan put down the pen with a "bang" and the ink flew away and splashed a little on the case, she was completely unaware of it. She held the drawing paper in her hands and said, "Okay!"

Pei Yunying came back to her senses, stood up, walked towards her, and said with a smile, "Let me take a look."

After painting for so long and still being so serious, his posture became stiff, and he felt a bit of anticipation, wanting to see what His Majesty Lu Zhen would look like. Although her painting skills were not very good... But her character was here, and she wanted to It’s also difficult to draw ugly.

He walked behind Lu Zhen, put his hands behind her, leaned over to look at the paintings on the table, and fell silent after taking a look.

Lu Zhuo tilted his head: "Does it look good?"

Pei Yunying: "..."

This painting can't really be said to be good-looking or not good-looking, because if she didn't say it, it would be difficult for anyone to figure out who the painting was. There was only a skeleton drawn on the white paper, and acupuncture points were written with fine pen on the side of the skeleton.

"Baihui, Jiuwei, Tiantu..." Lu Zhuo said while comparing the portraits, "That's right, why are you unhappy."

Pei Yunying continued to remain silent.

So she asked him to sit down, and after posing for a long time on the opposite side, she drew such an acupuncture point map?

Even the facial features are not fully drawn.

Although Lu Zhen's painting skills are average, his ability to observe words and colors is first-rate. He is keenly aware of his speechlessness at this moment, and is a little puzzled: "Did I draw it wrong?"

She spread the painting flat on the table, turned around, looked at the portrait and reached out to touch his face.

"Baihui, Touwei..."

"Save bamboo, four hundred..."

The fingertips landed on his eyebrows and went down the bridge of his nose.

He was stunned and stared at it, but Lu Yan didn't notice it and still touched it bit by bit.

"Ditch..."

The fingertips touched his lips and continued downward, and Pei Yunying's Adam's apple moved slightly.

She was still touching, moving from her neck and shoulders to her chest, and her breath was filled with the fragrance of sweet wine: "Tiantu, Tanzhong..."

Pei Yunying couldn't bear it anymore and grabbed her hand that continued to move downward: "Stop touching it."

Lu Yan was unhappy: "Why not? There are no male or female doctors. I am not afraid of them. What are you afraid of?"

Pei Yunying: "..."

He was angry and funny.

This man was already drunk and was talking drunken words, but he chose to use such a serious and old-fashioned tone, which made people feel guilty about taking advantage of others even if they wanted to do anything.

"Are you really not afraid?" He said meaningfully.

Lu Zhuo shook his head.

Pei Yunying nodded, thought for a moment, and suddenly pulled her arm around his neck, hugging Lu Zhuo horizontally.

Lu Zhen was carried by him towards the bed. He was stunned for a moment, vaguely remembering the acupuncture point map he had just finished, and said, "Wait a minute, I haven't finished the acupuncture point map yet."

He sneered: "Stop drawing. I think the acupuncture point map is rough. I think Doctor Lu has neglected his medical skills these days, so it would be better for me to help you brush up on it."

"Nonsense," Lu Zhen shouted angrily, "How could I neglect my medical skills?"

"Then compare it with real people and see the difference..."

The curtain was pulled down, and the voices in the tent gradually became fainter.

Early the next morning, Lu woke up feeling sore and confused.

There are some vague fragments in my mind, which are not very clear, but if I look into it carefully, I don't want to recall it, which would be embarrassing. It's better to just muddle through and let myself go without forcing the memory.

Pei Yunying went to the imperial city early in the morning to take up her duties. She stood up and walked to the table, when she was suddenly startled.

There are two paintings on the table.

At first glance, every painting was made by her, with skewed lines and rough figures. There was only a skeleton drawn, with acupoints marked on it, and three big words: Pei Yunying.

Lu Chen: "..."

This is really too horrible to look at. To be fair, if it were her, she would have thrown this painting on Pei Yunying's face at this moment.

As for the other one…

Lu Zhuo's eyes froze.

On a lonely autumn night, the woman is still asleep. She is wearing a middle coat, with her hair hanging down. She is sitting in front of the case and taking a nap with her head in one hand. Her eyes are slightly closed, and a wine jar is rolling down on the case.

The painter's brushstrokes are meticulous and lifelike, as if through the painting, one can see the moonlight melting in the autumn night. The woman is also vivid, even her hair is outlined so that it flutters in the wind, which is completely different from her meticulous painting skills.

That's herself.

She was stunned for a moment, her heart slightly agitated.

Did he paint it last night, or early in the morning?

He was really energetic, but the painting looked very similar, which shows that this painting had a deep impression on him.

There was also a note beside the two paintings. Lu Zhu picked it up and took a look.

The handwriting is sharp and beautiful, with two lines of large characters written eloquently.

"My wife gave me a painting, and I also gave it to her."

"I hope you will be generous and give me a gift, so I can do it again when I have time."

Lu Chen: "..."

The last episode of Denghua has been updated. Yin Zheng and Xiao Du are no longer written separately. This pairing has an open ending. Just like Yin Zheng said in the article: "Being family, friends or lovers are all in the future, and Renxin Medical Center will not do it after all." "I think this is the best place.

Thank you all for accompanying this new story and spending more than two hundred days of self-discipline together. I also wish you all a Happy New Year and all the best in advance!
