Chapter 3 third quarter

Since Cheng Hanqing retired to the fields, she would go for a walk in the apricot grove in front of the house every day after getting up.This apricot grove is not very big, about 20 acres of land. It spreads out from the front of Cheng's house to the surroundings. The apricot trees in the forest are of different ages. The thinner the trunk is, the younger the tree is.This apricot forest of different ages is the product of three generations of Cheng's medical practice.When Cheng Hanqing's grandfather Cheng Qingyun first built this house, he set aside this apricot forest in front of the house. With the accumulation of his pot-hanging career, the apricot forest in front of the house has also continued to expand. According to the old custom, the patient planted an apricot tree in front of his house, so the apricot forests were not planted on the same day, and the ages of the trees varied greatly.Cheng Hanqing worked as an imperial doctor for more than ten years, and the apricot forest has not expanded. Therefore, the youngest apricot tree in the forest is more than ten years old.

March in Yangchun is the season for apricot trees to sprout branches. Every apricot tree, regardless of age, has dense flower buds on the fruit branches. The clusters and branches are so ripe and plump, as if a ray of spring will bloom with a breath of hot air, which makes Cheng Hanqing very excited.Serving in the palace for more than ten years, three watch stars and five watch moons, trembling with fear, accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger, there is never a day when I don't want to return!If you are practicing medicine and treating diseases, there will be this vivid monument in the folks to encourage you to work hard, but in the court, there are only white hairs on the sideburns to record the passing years!In the palace, if you work hard and dedicate yourself, in the end you are just a dog and a slave of the emperor!But among the people, you save the dying and heal the wounded, you save the suffering, you are respected and embraced like the great compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva, and you are the same as the hanging pot to help the world, how different your feelings are!

Cheng Hanqing felt so emotional, and carefully identified who planted those apricot trees one by one, and recalled what disease the person who planted the apricot tree was suffering from, and how he treated it based on syndrome differentiation. In this way, an apricot tree is an apricot tree Cases, the whole piece of Xinglin is a thick medical archives of three generations of the Cheng family, which makes him more interested the more he "reads". Later, he stopped by an old apricot tree full of flower buds, and couldn't help but stroked the bark of the old tree with his hands, tears flashed in his eyes.

This apricot tree was planted by his wife, Du Zigui.At that time, she was not his wife, but the only daughter of a private school teacher, who was dying of acute appendicitis (acute appendicitis). He insisted on using propolis as a disinfectant, using a pig knife and daily scissors, and performed an appendectomy on the kang of her home, which finally brought her back to life.After recovering from her illness, she first planted the apricot tree by herself, and later she entrusted her father as a matchmaker and married him... Now, although his wife passed away, the story about this apricot tree will always remain in his heart.Looking back on his whole life as a doctor, he won his father's approval from that bold operation practice. Since then, he has gained his father's full trust and quickly provoked the leader of Huichun Hall and became famous all over the world.It is precisely because of his personal experience of being bound by the conservative ideas of the older generation that he always pays attention to adopting an enlightened supportive attitude when dealing with many bold insights and novel ideas in the clinical practice of his twin sons, so that the two children have already emerged. A good sign that green out of blue is better than blue...

Cheng Hanqing strolled in the apricot forest, recalling the past, feeling a lot of emotion, and unknowingly came to her own medicine garden. The Cheng Family Medicine Garden is adjacent to the apricot grove, covering an area of ​​more than 70 mu, which is exactly 100 mu when combined with the apricot grove.At the beginning, old Mr. Cheng Qingyun's idea was to let the Cheng family be doctors for generations, at least to plant Xinglin to an integer of 100 mu.The land before planting apricot trees will be used as a medicine garden to grow medicine.Since Huichuntang closed down, Cheng Hanqing's second brother, Cheng Hanru, has made a living by planting this medicine garden. Every year, he grows red peony, white peony, astragalus, codonopsis and salvia, Guanzhong, epimedium, licorice, etc., which are suitable for growing in the north. Herbal medicine, the income is also very good, and the life is quite prosperous.

In front of my eyes, when the spring breeze blows, the perennial root varieties in the medicine garden turn green and turn green, and sprout new shoots. Looking at the past, there are a little bit of light yellow and pieces of emerald, which is really pleasing to the eye.It seems that these herbs only know the seasons but not the law of the king. It doesn't matter whether the emperor abdicates or goes down to the field, and it doesn't matter whether the big man issues a ban or not. Cheng Hanqing was strolling in the medicine garden, when he heard someone calling suddenly, looking back, it was his second younger brother Cheng Hanru waving to him.Cheng Hanqing hurriedly stopped, waiting for Cheng Hanru to rush to the front.

When Cheng Hanru met Cheng Hanqing, he kept saying, "The matter of the Fan family is over! It's over!" "What about the Fan family?" Cheng Hanqing didn't understand what the second brother said for a while. "It's the marriage of the daughter of the Fan family." Cheng Hanru further reminded, "I just said it last night!" It turned out that when Cheng Hanqing and Cheng Hanru talked about the marriage of their twin sons Shaobo and Shaozhong last night, they considered all the families in the town and surrounding areas that had women waiting to marry, and felt that Fan Chenxiang's daughter, Fan Xiaojin, was the best match, so they agreed to let Cheng Hanru find her. Xiao Congfu came forward to act as a matchmaker.This morning Cheng Hanru found Xiao Congfu in Huichun Hall, before Xiao Congfu opened his mouth, Xiao Congfu first told about Fan Chenxiang's intention to get married. Come and report the good news to your brother.

Cheng Hanqing couldn't help smiling when he heard the introduction of his second brother, and sighed again and again: "Fate! Fate!" Then he said to Cheng Hanru: "Quickly get the horoscopes of the daughters of Shaobo, Shaozhong, He, and Fan to Luyang Yam Elder Wangmiao Zhiyuan will do the math to see how the two couples match up."
