Chapter 184 Proposal
"Jingmo, Chonglou, come out!" He parked the carriage outside the yard, and then yelled inside.

"Godfather, are you back?" Two figures rushed out of the house like a whirlwind, shouting happily around him.

"Come back!" Zhu Fangyuan picked up one in each hand and kissed each other, "Are you good?"

"Be good!" Jing Mo pointed to Chonglou and said, "But my younger brother is not good and always makes my mother angry."

Chonglou puffed up her cheeks, "It's not my brother, and it's not me who made my mother angry. My mother has never been angry with me."

"Why not? I took Tantou out yesterday and came back covered in mud, and the dirty clothes haven't been washed yet." Jing Mo complained.

Zhu Fangyuan twirled his ear, "Oh, that's not good, rolling in mud didn't even wait for godfather to come back, godfather loved playing in mud when he was young."

Jing Mo gasped and said, "Godfather, you can't help the evildoer."

"Yo," Zhu Fangyuan said pleasantly, "Our girl is smart, she can even use idioms. When my godfather was your age, he knew how to eat and drink."

"I will, I will too," Chonglou Xianbao said: "Godfather is wise and powerful, handsome and suave, mother is beautiful and generous, and godfather works hand in hand with each other, a nest of snakes and rats..."

"Stop, stop, stop," Zhu Fangyuan was dumbfounded, "What kind of gangsters, a nest of snakes and rats? Who taught you?"

"Master Li, Master Li will come over to teach us at night."

Zhu Fangyuan was furious, "Him? He's the one who's a gangster, a nest of snakes and rats, with ulterior motives, a widower who always comes to a woman's house, who will believe that he has no intentions? Where is mother? Where did she go?"

"Master Li said he had a headache today, so someone came and called Mom over," Jing Mo said.

Zhu Fangyuan put down the twins, "Wait for me in the house, and ask Director Mao to come out and unload the carriage. The package is for the two of you. There are two copies. No snatching is allowed."

"I won't rob my brother."

"I won't rob my sister."

The two said in unison.

Zhu Fangyuan went to Master Li's house angrily.

Nanshan City is an ancient city. In fact, the center of the city is not big. However, it stretches for hundreds of miles from Nanshan in the south to Liangshan in the north. It is under the jurisdiction of Nanshan City, so there are many villages and criss-crossing paths. Looking down from Nanshan, the scenery is infinitely beautiful.

Master Li lived in Shitou Village outside the city. Because he was close to the city gate, he always regarded himself as a person from the city.

He was a scholar in the second year of Jiaping, quite talented, and even more pedantic and bookish.

Ever since he met Wen Yi, he fell in love with Wen Yi, but he thought that Wen Yi had a child out of wedlock and her conduct was bad, so even though he liked her beauty, he never asked anyone to come to her door to propose marriage.

It wasn't until later, when Wen Yi's fame gradually grew, and everyone in Nanshan City knew Dr. Wen, that he gradually abandoned these thoughts and started thinking about marrying Wen Yi.

In recent months, this idea has become even more serious.

Of course, Mr. Li is also a well-known scholar in the neighborhood after all, and not a casual woman can match him, so he planned to test Wen Yi's talents first.

It just so happened that he was feeling unwell that day, so he asked the book boy to invite Wen Yi over. One was to treat the illness, and the other was to examine Wen Yi.

"Nothing happened, just a little bit of wind and cold, coupled with the cold and damp weather in spring, I was sleepy and ate some food that got angry, which caused the deficiency fire to rise. I prescribed two medicines, and my wife ate and drank lightly. After two days of conditioning, everything will be fine. gone."

After Wen Yi finished speaking, she sat by the table and wrote the medicine list.

"Okay, thank you, Doctor Wen!" Master Li pulled the chair closer, approached Wen Yi, and watched Wen Yi write on the medicine list, "By the way, I've been wanting to ask Doctor Wen, Jing Mo and Chong Lou's names are you started?"
Wen Yi nodded, "Yes."

"Is there any moral?" Master Li asked.

Wen Yi just finished writing, and said with a smile: "There is no meaning, I just don't want to think about it, so I named the two children after the medicinal materials."

"Oh? Jingmo and Chonglou are actually the names of medicinal materials?" Master Li couldn't help but be surprised. He thought that these two names were so elegant, and there would be some meaning in them.

He was a little disappointed, but he paused and continued to ask, "Does Doctor Wen like painting?"

"I don't like it very much."

"What about writing poetry?"

"not good at."

"Is there anyone who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?" He was not reconciled. Such a beautiful woman can't know anything?

To be Mrs. Li's wife, you can't know nothing.

Wen Yi turned her head and thought for a while, "I know a little about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I'm not good at it, I'm not proficient. The only thing I'm proficient in is medicine."

"This woman must know piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. What's the use of knowing medical skills? Women always have to marry, and after they get married, they can't come out to show their faces. When they go out to socialize in the future, they have to look at the door one or two times, right?"

"Well, yes, that's true." Wen Yi was not interested in these things, so she answered a few words casually, and said to the book boy, "You can go back with me to get the medicine."

"Yes!" The book boy replied.

Seeing Wen Yi picking up the medicine box and leaving, Master Li couldn't help but stand up, "Doctor Wen is not in a hurry to leave, Xiaosheng still has something to tell you."

Yan Yan smiled warmly, "Is it an important matter? If it's not an important matter, I have to go back and cook for Jing Mo and Chong Lou."

How could Wen Yi not know what Master Li had in mind?It was especially obvious in the past few months, and she could only pretend not to know.

Judging by his current expression, it seems that he is going to talk about it.

Wen Yi was particularly unwilling to deal with such a situation.

Master Li looked quite serious. "It must be an important matter. At least, Xiaosheng thinks it is the most important thing for Dr. Wen."

Wen Yi evaded: "If it's about me, then it's nothing important. After all, the most important thing to me now is that my two children haven't eaten yet."

After finishing speaking, she didn't give him any chance, and went out with the medicine box on her back.

"Doctor Wen hasn't confiscated the consultation fee yet." Master Li was stunned for a moment, then shouted suddenly.

"Free clinic!" Wen Yi said without looking back.

Master Li chased after him quickly, stopped Wen Yi, and asked in a bad tone: "Doctor Wen, what do you mean?"
"Huh?" Wen Yi didn't understand why he was angry, could it be that he was angry because of his failed courtship?
Mrs. Li had a sullen expression on his face, "Free clinic? As far as Xiaosheng knows, Dr. Wen holds free clinics every month, and the targets are poor people who don't have money to see a doctor. Does Doctor Wen look down on Xiaosheng by not accepting my consultation money?"

"That's not what it means." Wen Yi recalled that this Master Li was the one who wanted to save face the most, "I just think that Master always teaches Chong Lou and Jing Shuo to write, and he doesn't charge money. It's meaningless to want to repay Master."

"Then you can't call it a free clinic." Master Li said in a slightly kind tone, but he continued in an accusatory tone: "If this matter gets out, it will damage my reputation, and what will others think of me? Even doctors look down on me. Isn’t this book a waste of time?”

Wen Yi said weakly: "Master Li, the consultation fee is ten coins, and the medicine fee will be calculated separately."

Mrs. Li took out a sling of money from his sleeve pocket and put it in Wen Yi's hands, "I'll buy some delicious food for Chonglou and Jingmo for the extra money, those two children look pitiful. There is a lot of gossip in front of the door, you should find a stepfather for them."

"Widow?" Wen Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Who told you that I was a widow?"

Li Fuzi said righteously: "I know it's not, but are you willing to tell people that you gave birth out of wedlock? Do you know how much damage this will do to a woman's reputation? So, you have to tell people that you are a widow. Marrying here will not damage my reputation."
