Chapter 18 Flowering and Fruiting

When the carriage stopped in front of the Hidden City Hall again, it was already past. Hui Niang took the covered hat and let the maids and maids wait outside. Only Huang helped her into the hospital.

The furnishings of this hospital are roughly the same as those of the general hospital. Behind the long counter is a row of drawers for medicine. A little medical boy stood at the counter and said hello loudly with a smile.

There is a square table and four matching chairs in the corner of the room. An old man sat on the chair facing south. Although he was through the curtain, he could still see it. I think this old man is the old fairy my sister-in-law said. The old man looked about 60 years old, and his high buns were already white, but the two thick eyebrows were still black, not one was white. The long eyebrows fell on the corners of his eyes, and there was a serene and kind look between his eyebrows. In sharp contrast to this, what is also impressive is the old man's eyes, which are deep and divine, which makes people dare not look directly. It is absolutely not too much to describe it as an eagle's eye.

Huang Shi walked over first with a smile and saluted respectfully. Old fairy, you are back. I accompanied my wife in the morning. But unfortunately, you asked the prince to invite you. We got a letter in the afternoon, so we came here quickly. Speaking of this, he turned around with a smile and helped Hui Niang and introduced, "Madam, this is the old fairy I mentioned to you!"

Hui Niang also saluted respectfully and whispered, "Old fairy, thank you!"

"Please sit down, madam!" The old fairy smiled and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation.

Hui Niang gently sat on the chair of the old fairy's right hand and silently stretched out her left hand and put it on the small pillow on the table. The old fairy didn't ask much, but gently put his hand on the pulse, closed his eyes slightly and meditated. For a moment, he raised his hand and said with a smile, "Please change to another one." Then he closed his eyes slightly. When there was a smile at the corners of his mouth, he withdrew his hand. Before someone asked, he said with a smile, "Madam, this is a happy pulse. It should be more than a month. It will be available in July next year.

Huang Shi listened to the words of the old fairy and said with a smile, "Madam is very happy! Congratulations, madam! "Mrs. He Xi!"

Hui Niang also asked with a smile, "I don't know if it's a man or a woman?" Please make it clear to the old immortals!"

The old fairy took the hot towel handed over by the little doctor and wiped his hands, and said faintly, "Bloom first, then bear fruit!"

Huang Shi asked more carefully, and Hui Niang stretched out her hand to stop her. Thank you, old fairy!" Get up and salute and leave.

Huang Shi asked anxiously, "Old fairy, please give me some good prescriptions to calm the fetus!"

"Madam, everything is fine. No need! Slow down, I won't send you!" After saying that, he stood up with a smile and walked to the back hall.

Huang saluted and accompanied Hui Niang out of the hospital. Hui Niang got into the carriage and took off the hat. Seeing that Huang Shi also got on the bus, he ordered the carriage to go back home.

"Miss, why don't you ask clearly whether it's a man or a woman?" Huang asked doubtfully.

"It's a predestined thing to give birth to boys and girls. What's the difference between knowing early and knowing later?" Although Hui Niang already knew it, she didn't want to ask Huang Shi.

Huang Shi heard what Miss said, so it was inconvenient to say anything more. Both of them were silent all the way.

Coincidentally, since the old magic doctor was invited that afternoon, Hui Niang had no vomiting. The fire in the kitchen is kept all day, because I don't know when the mistress wants to eat. It turned out to be some strange things, such as the dumplings stuffed with pork and cabbage that I ate last time, and then the tender corn and the celery root in the kimchi. The most rare thing is that I want to eat red tomatoes. At this time, it's hard to buy them. It's almost November, and it's freezing. Where can I buy rare things in summer?

Xue Zhu came back from the kitchen. As soon as he entered the door, Hui Niang asked urgently, "Have you brought it?"

Xue Zhu replied carefully, "Miss, tomatoes are only available in summer. Now it's winter. How can this be found!"

Hui Niang was very disappointed, but what Xue Zhu said was indeed true. After thinking about it, he said faintly, "Why don't you have an apple and eat it with vinegar."

Hearing this, Xue Zhu reluctantly couldn't help laughing and turned back to the kitchen to get ready.

A group of people in the kitchen waited to see the snow bamboo girl coming back, as if the mother still wanted tomatoes, they all looked at the snow bamboo with a bitter face. Xue Zhu finally couldn't help laughing.

Cai Mai hurriedly begged, "Miss Xuezhu, please talk to your wife again. There is no such rare thing in winter! This is not for us to sit on wax!"

Xuezhu laughed for a long time, sat down on the chair and said with a smile, "Don't worry! Madam also knows that you are embarrassed and don't eat tomatoes. Madam wants to eat..." Thinking of the apple dipped in vinegar, she couldn't help laughing.

"Xuezhu girl, you should say it quickly! What on earth does madam want to eat? Everyone in the kitchen is very anxious.

Xue Zhu smiled and had a stomachache. He covered his stomach and said intermittently, "You guys, don't worry! Let me laugh, enough is enough! Haha!" Finally, after laughing, Xue Zhu replied word by word, "Miss, I want to eat apples with vinegar!"

"Ah!" There was a sense of astonishment in the kitchen.
