Chapter 1420 The extra box (for book friend Anitaqing)
Man Bao couldn't stay in the Li family for too long. She had to go to the palace to give the prince an acupuncture in the afternoon.
So after eating lunch and sitting for a while, she got up to say goodbye.
When she got up, she saw Ms. Cui sitting next to her. She thought about it, pulled her and whispered, "You have a short period of confinement. Don't stay out for a long time. You'd better go home."
Mrs. Cui also felt that there were too many people here and it was too noisy, and she was used to taking a rest in the afternoon, so this place was obviously not suitable, so she also stood up to leave.
The two of them were about to leave, and Mrs. Tang thought for a moment before getting up and walking with them.
Like them, there were many people who left after lunch. They were not noticeable, and there were also many people who stayed and continued playing.
The three of them came out together. Mrs. Yang asked someone to go to the front to talk to Yang Heshu. Soon Yang Heshu's servant came over in person and said, "The uncle met Mr. Yang Qi from Hanoi County and was talking in front, so I asked my wife to go back first."
."
Then he said to Man Bao, "Miss Man, Master Bai and the others encountered Master Feng and others in front, and they were also tripped. Master Bai asked the slave to pass a message to you."
His exact words were, "Take Daji with you and let him take you there, and leave Chiji with your eldest cousin to ride back."
Man Bao agreed and warned, "Let them drink more wine. I heard there is wine ahead today."
The boy was stunned for a moment, thinking he heard wrongly.
Ms. Cui and Mrs. Tang couldn't help but turn to look at her. Ms. Cui also thought she heard wrongly, but Mrs. Tang instantly understood what Man Bao meant and couldn't help but poke her head and laughed and scolded, "You greedy man, you are so greedy."
How much does a jug of wine cost?”
Man Bao asked, "Isn't it expensive for you to buy?"
Mrs. Cui couldn't help but be happy and said, "You have received so many rewards, can't you still afford a pot of wine?"
Wine is imported from the Western Regions. In fact, grapes are grown in the Longxi area and wine is made, but the output is not high, and the quality of the wine is not as good as that from the Western Regions.
So wine has always been expensive.
But no matter how expensive it is, they feel that Man Bao can still afford it now, and the rewards from the palace are constant.
Thinking about it this way, it is really better to be a private doctor than a royal doctor in the palace.
Mrs. Tang thought thoughtfully. It was only natural for imperial doctors to treat the masters in the palace. There were rewards, but they were definitely not as many as Man Bao's.
Mrs. Tang looked at Man Bao, and after leaving, she couldn't help but ask her quietly, "Tell me, is there a reason for this reward that you don't want to go to the Imperial Hospital?"
Man Bao's eyes widened and he couldn't help but said, "I can't even remember this matter if you don't mention it. It's true. Compared with this, it seems that being a private doctor is not bad."
Mrs. Tang...
Seeing that she seemed to know this for the first time, she stopped talking and stopped talking. Since this was not her original intention, there was no need for her to remind her.
In fact, when they become imperial doctors, in addition to the salary from the imperial hospital, they also have other income, and the income will definitely not be much less than the reward Man Bao received from the palace.
Mrs. Tang smiled, found the Tang family's carriage, stood in front of the carriage and invited Mrs. Cui to go with her.
As for Man Bao, of course he left on his own.
Man Bao had to go home first, change his clothes, bring his medicine box, and wait for the imperial army to pick him up before leaving, so he stopped greeting the two of them and climbed into the carriage when Daji drove over.
Manbao yawned after getting in the car and sat in the middle seat. She had just finished her lunch and she was also a little sleepy.
She leaned back and was about to lean against the car wall when her hand suddenly touched something. Curiously, she turned around and dug out a long box beside the seat.
The box had nice decorations. She became curious, opened the curtain and asked Daji, "Did Brother Bai leave a gift behind?"
Daji said, "Impossible. I moved the gifts and handed them in according to the gift list."
Man Bao then handed over the box and said, "Then this is what Brother Bai left in the car?"
Daji took a look and saw that the decoration was not bad, so he said, "I'll ask the young master in the lobby later..."
After saying this, he paused, frowned slightly, and asked, "Where did you find Miss Man?"
"It's on the chair in the middle, but it's on the side. I didn't notice it at first." The chair in the car is a bench, because the three of them usually use this carriage together, and they always travel together.
So there are benches in the middle and under the windows on the left and right sides, and there is a small square table in the middle with a mechanism that can be pressed down and used as a wooden board, so that the space in the car is larger.
They can pull it up when needed, and they can also play leaf cards in the car. They spent time like this when they went to Beijing.
Daji's back tensed, and he immediately took the box in her hand, pressed it down and said, "We'll talk about it when we get back. This box can't be in the car. I moved the gift down. The car was empty at the time and there was nothing."
Since it was not a long distance trip, they didn't even prepare a stove, teapot or cups.
Daji has always been careful and careful. He can be sure that when he moved the gifts, he indeed emptied the car and left nothing behind.
Daji's eyes were deep and he said, "I just went to eat with other servants."
The servants were also in charge of the food, but they ate simply. They ate as soon as the bowls were brought to them. After eating, they just went back to their cars and looked at the cars and the luggage on them.
Manbao and the others are not so particular. What's more, it's a perfect spring day and the sun is shining brightly. They don't even want to sit in a carriage, they just want to ride a horse. How can they bring two coachmen?
So no one replaces the carriage.
The main reason is that they don't need it. They didn't even bring a change of clothes or jewelry.
At this time, the carriage had already left Li's house. Daji stopped the carriage and thought for a moment, then made a decisive decision and continued walking.
There were too many people here today, not to mention the masters who were having the banquet in the house, but also how many servants there were. The girls who came with Mrs. Cui and Mrs. Tang couldn't enter the backyard, so they could only stay in the front yard, waiting.
If the masters have any instructions, the servants of the Li Mansion will come out to inform them.
This 100-day banquet is also a coincidence. Enke's day will be in more than a month, so many students came to the capital during this time.
The Han and Li families are both famous families. Shouldn't you send a message if you come across an old family relationship?
In addition, relatives and friends from Yongzhou also came to join in the fun, so there were especially many people here today.
Not to mention that Man Bao is just a young doctor, he is also a son of a noble family. Something was thrown into the car, and it may not be possible to find out today.
Since you can't find out, there's no need to stay and cause trouble.
Man Bao thought so too and didn't mention turning around and going back.
Daji held the reins with one hand and pressed the box with the other to prevent Manbao from touching it.
When he got out of this road, there were fewer cars, horses and pedestrians on the road. He reined in the horse next to him, jumped out of the car and re-checked the cars and horses. After confirming that there was no problem, he jumped in the car and hurried back home.
