Chapter 972: Goodbye Pan'er, Gu Qianfan returns to Beijing(1/2)
Hearing Zhou Chen say that he knew medical skills, Sun Sanniang and Song Yinzhang both looked at each other.
The dignified Marquis Zhongyong doesn’t look like he has anything to do with the doctor. Does the Marquis still have time to learn medical skills?
Although they were confused, they still took Zhou Chen into the house and came to Zhao Paner's bed.
Zhou Chen sat down in front of Zhao Pan'er's bed and looked at the sleeping Zhao Pan'er. A trace of unbearability flashed in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
This is a disaster that Zhao Pan'er must go through. Instead of procrastinating, solving it neatly like now is the best choice.
With Zhao Paner's tenacious character, even if he is sad, it will only be sad for a period of time and will not sink into it, so Zhou Chen is relieved.
Picking up Zhao Paner's right hand, Zhou Chen began to feel the pulse.
Sun Sanniang and the three girls stood aside, not daring to make a sound for fear of disturbing Zhou Chen.
But their eyes were full of curiosity. Looking at the way Zhou Chen checked his pulse, it seemed like he really knew medical skills?
After a while, Zhou Chen let go of his hand and put Zhao Pan'er's hand back on the quilt.
"Master Hou, how is Sister Pan'er doing?"
"The anger attacks my heart, and I am too tired and sick from overwork during this period, resulting in physical and mental weakness. Next, I need to take good care of myself. I will write a prescription, then take the medicine, boil it and give it to her.
, take it for a few more days.”
Zhao Pan'er didn't have any serious illness. She was just physically tired and suffered too much psychologically. When she was stimulated today, she would become angry and burst out.
"As long as it's not a serious problem, it's fine as long as it's not a serious problem." The tense hearts of Sun Sanniang and the three girls were somewhat relieved.
Zhou Chen wrote the prescription and asked Zhou Huai who was outside the door to come in.
Zhou Huai put the luggage he was carrying on the table, then picked up the prescription written by Zhou Chen and went out to grab the medicine.
Zhou Chen pointed to the luggage and said: "This is all Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Song's money. It's not easy to live in Tokyo. You need money."
When Song Yinzhang heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and refused: "How can this be done, Mr. Hou? This is what Sister Pan'er and I have given to you. How can we take it back? You should take it back."
Zhou Chen smiled and said: "This is the shipping fee you paid me, but you only took two days to get off the ship. You did not complete the contract, so naturally you will not be charged; besides, Mrs. Zhao and I are friends, and between friends
Helping each other is a matter of course."
"But……"
Song Yinzhang wanted to say more, but Sun Sanniang stopped her.
"Introduction, the Marquis is right. Tokyo is no better than Qiantang, and there are many places to use money. However, we can count this money as a loan and we will return it to the Marquis later."
Although they only stayed in Tokyo for one day, they already felt the difference between Tokyo and Qiantang. The large room they lived in could have lasted ten days in Qiantang.
She committed suicide by drowning herself in the river this time, without a penny on her body. However, Zhao Pan'er and Song Yinzhang gave part of their cash to Zhou Chen, and later redeemed themselves for Yin Ping, so they don't have much money with them now.
There are four of them in total. Without money, it would be really difficult for them to survive in this huge city of Tokyo.
Zhou Chen didn't pay attention to what Sun Sanniang said, but just warned: "You should take good care of Madam Zhao these days. If you encounter any trouble, you can go to the Zhongyong Hou Mansion for help."
"We have remembered it, thank you Lord Marquis."
Sun Sanniang and the girls were all sincerely grateful. Originally, when they first came to Tokyo, they were all anxious and uneasy. Zhou Chen's words made them feel at ease a lot, so they were sincerely grateful.
Zhou Chen looked at Song Yinzhang again and said: "I will have to wait a little longer to help you deregister, because I am in a special situation and it is not appropriate to deal with the Jiaofang Division. However, if you want to go to the Jiaofang Division in Tokyo, you can go
, it doesn’t matter if you don’t want to go, no one will cause trouble for you.”
"As I said, if someone is looking for trouble for you, go to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion to find me. Although it is not convenient for me to come forward, I will find someone to help you solve it."
Song Yinzhang responded obediently: "Master Hou, I'm not in a hurry. If it's troublesome, Master Hou doesn't have to worry. Anyway, I'm used to it."
"It's not too much trouble. Let me tell you the truth. I am currently in the period of observing filial piety, so I don't have an official position. I am not suitable to go to a place like Jiaofangsi, let alone manage the affairs of Jiaofangsi. Otherwise,
Some officials who have nothing to do all day may criticize me."
"ah?"
The three women all exclaimed in surprise. They never expected that this would be the case.
Song Yinzhang said even more eagerly: "Master Hou, you shouldn't stand up for me anymore. Anyway, I have been in Jiaofangsi for many years and I don't care how many more years I stay."
"It doesn't take that long. I still have a few months until the filial piety period is over. As long as you don't be anxious and wait patiently, this matter is not difficult for me."
Song Yinzhang choked up and said: "Master Marquis, thank you. If I can leave my country, I will be a slave and a maidservant in the future and serve the Marquis without any regrets."
The corners of Sun Sanniang's eyes twitched. She clearly felt that something was wrong with the way Song Yinzhang looked at Zhou Chen. She was an outsider, so she could see clearly that Zhou Chen helped them like this just for Zhao Pan'er.
Zhou Chen and Zhao Pan'er are not doing well now. If Song Yinzhang gets involved again, things will be in trouble.
When Zhou Chen left, Song Yinzhang saw him off all the way to the outside of the inn before returning.
Seeing Song Yinzhang's behavior, Sun Sanniang wanted to persuade him, but when the words reached her lips, she couldn't say them out.
To be honest, she was truly grateful to Zhou Chen, but she was even more aware of the huge gap in status between them and a marquis like Zhou Chen.
If it were Zhao Pan'er, she wouldn't worry anymore, because she understands Zhao Pan'er, knows that Zhao Pan'er is smart and measured, and can definitely understand the gap between them.
But Song Yinzhang is just a simple little girl. Even Zhou She can deceive her. An outstanding man like Zhou Chen can make Song Yinzhang sink into trouble without even having to deceive her.
"well."
Zhao Pan'er slept for a whole day and did not wake up until the evening. Sun Sanniang, who had been watching over her, immediately went over to help her up.
"Pan'er, you finally woke up."
Zhao Pan'er asked in confusion: "How long have I slept?"
"I have been sleeping for several hours. You fell into coma when you came back, which shocked us all. Fortunately, Lord Zhou came to see you and took your pulse and prescribed medicine. After you drank it, you slept more soundly."
Zhao Pan'er rubbed his head and frowned slightly: "Master Zhou, has he been here?"
Sun Sanniang helped Zhao Pan'er up, leaned against her, and gently rubbed her temples.
"Well, soon after you came back, Lord Zhou came. Pan'er, Lord Zhou cared about you very much and only left after seeing that you got better."
Zhao Pan'er remained silent. Zhou Chen had shown affection to her more than once, but having just experienced betrayal and hurt, she didn't want to think about it yet.
Seeing that Zhao Pan'er didn't speak, Sun Sanniang didn't continue talking, but asked with concern: "Are you hungry? I'll get you some porridge."
Zhao Paner shook his head and said, "I'm not hungry, but I want to eat something."
With that said, she struggled to get up from the bed, and with the help of Sun Sanniang, she walked to the table next to her and sat down.
"Okay, I'm going to borrow the inn's kitchen now and make you some fish porridge. You wait a moment."
Zhao Pan'er had just eaten fish porridge when Ouyang Xu's good friend Du Changfeng came to look for trouble. But this time he encountered a lot of trouble and was immediately thrown into the river by the angry Sun Sanniang, losing all face.
.
When Song Yinzhang and Yin Ping returned to the house and saw Zhao Pan'er waking up, they were both very happy, as if they had a backbone.
Although Sun Sanniang is the eldest among the four girls, Zhao Paner is actually the backbone of them all. When they first arrived in Tokyo, they urgently needed stability.
Although Zhou Chen told them to go to Zhongyong Hou Mansion to find him if they had anything to do, they could not go to Zhou Chen just because of a trivial matter, so they needed Zhao Pan'er to cheer up and decide what to do in the future.
"Sister Pan'er, Mr. Zhou is really a good man. He also lent us all the money we gave him before and asked us to find a way to survive in Tokyo. He also said that I would demit my citizenship.
After the filial piety period is over, help me deregister."
"I see."
Only then did Zhao Paner understand why it would be troublesome for a Marquis like Zhou Chen to help Song Yinzhang deregister himself. It turned out that it was during the period of observing filial piety.
She also comes from a family of officials, so she is very aware of the importance that famous families place on reputation. During Zhou Chen's mourning period, if Zhou Chen couldn't wait to help a prostitute redeem herself and escape her citizenship, and the news spread, it would definitely be a serious blow to her reputation.
In the officialdom of the Song Dynasty, literati occupied the mainstream and paid special attention to reputation, so she understood Zhou Chen's concerns very well.
Zhou Chen was so kind to them, and even specially arranged for someone to escort them to Tokyo. She was already grateful, and naturally she didn't want to embarrass Zhou Chen.
"Yinzhang, don't worry about deportation. I will find a way for you."
"Well, Sister Pan'er, I know."
Song Yinzhang is in a very good mood now. With Zhou Chen's guarantee, she is no longer worried about her deportation.
"I said before that I would play music for Lord Zhou, but I haven't done it yet. Next time when Lord Zhou comes to see us, I will definitely play it for him."
This silly kid has such a big heart that Zhao Pan'er doesn't know what to say.
