I practiced medicine in ancient times

Chapter 143 Buying a house in town

“Yes, my granddaughter has passed the assessment for prospective doctors and will be able to be promoted to full-time doctor next year.

Not only did I pass the examination for a prospective doctor, Bai Yan also passed it, so we came back this time to announce the good news." Xu Qingyi said to Zhu again with a faint smile on his face.

"Good, good, that's great. Thanks to our ancestors, my Qingyi is now a doctor.

No, I have to tell your parents about this, and tomorrow we will go to the mountain to worship our ancestors, this is the blessing of our ancestors. "When Zhu heard Xu Qingyi's confirmation, her face was full of surprise and relief, and she shed tears of joy.

In ancient times, doctors were respected and admired. They could treat diseases for patients and safeguard the health of the people.

After a while, Zhu knocked on the door of the room of Xu Dafu and his brother and told them that Xu Qingyi had passed the examination to become a doctor, and also told them that she had brought back three hundred taels of silver from the county.

"My daughter, why are you hiding this from me?

If I had known, we would have killed a pig this afternoon and had a good meal." When Zhang heard that her daughter had passed the examination for a prospective doctor, she was as happy as Zhu, and even surprised and delighted.

"It's still in time to kill a pig to celebrate tomorrow. I have good news." Xu Qingyi said with a smile.

"Oh? Any other good news?" Xu Dafu asked curiously when he heard it.

"Bai Yan and I have passed the assessment for prospective doctors. After completing the promotion to doctors in Chuanshan County, we will go to the capital to practice medicine next year at the earliest or the beginning of the year after next at the latest. At that time, we will be real doctors.

In addition, after Bai Yan and I passed the qualification of quasi-doctors, we were recommended to study medicine at the county hospital. Bai Yan and I recommended Qing Ping and Qing An, and they will go to the county hospital with us to study medicine at the beginning of next year. "Xu Qingyi said to the Xu family with a smile.

"What? Qingyi, are you going to the capital to practice medicine?"

"Qingping and Qing'an will go to the county with you to study medicine next year?" When the Xu family heard that in the future Qingyi would not only go to the provincial capital to practice medicine, but could also arrange for Qingping and Qing'an to study medicine at the Chuanshan County Clinic, everyone in the Xu family was shocked.

Xu Qingyi hadn’t said that in the future they would go to Huichun Medical Clinic in the capital to practice medicine, and would even take part in the examinations for female doctors and imperial doctors in the Imperial Hospital in the capital, and then get official positions. At that time, it would be a matter of honor for the family and the ancestors.

"Qingyi, you are also going to the prefectural city to practice medicine. You have also arranged for Qingping and Qingan to practice medicine in the county. Are we still going to buy the house in the town?

Before, our family wanted to buy a house in the town so that Qingwu could study more conveniently and take care of Qingan and Qingping. They will go to the county next year. Now your aunt is pregnant, so why not buy a carriage to let your uncle work harder to pick up Qingwu. "After Zhu was shocked, she came to her senses and said with a happy face.

“We still have to buy a house in town.

Our family has money, but if the money is not spent or is saved and has no use, then it is just a dead thing. In this case, it is better to spend it where it should be spent.

In addition, now that our family can go up the mountain to collect herbs, we can make money, but it is hard-earned money, so Bai Yan and I have discussed whether we can open a shop in the town and do some small business, so that it will not be so hard to make money. "Xu Qingyi has already made plans for his family, and now he plans to slowly change their ideas and thoughts one by one.

My second brother and third sister can study medicine directly with me. If my fourth brother is good at studying, he can pass the imperial examination in the future. My fifth sister is still young and I can’t tell anything yet. When she is older, I will ask her what she thinks. No matter what she wants to do, Xu Qingyi will support her.

As for the baby in her aunt's belly, it's too early to say anything about it since it hasn't come out yet.

"Open a shop and do business? We don't have any skills, so what business can we do? It would be better for us to take care of the one and a half acres of land at home and go up the mountain to collect herbs and sell them for money." Zhu shook her head.

"If you don't have a skill, you can learn it. Before, grandma and you, unlike mom and dad, didn't know how to pick and prepare herbs, but now they have learned it.

Even if things are bad, we can still open a restaurant and sell some food, but these things can't be rushed, we have to think about it in the long run." Xu Qingyi also said with some disapproval.

Of course, since Xu Qingyi wanted their family to open a shop and do small business, he naturally had already thought about what kind of shop to open and paved the way for them.

They opened a health food therapy restaurant, specializing in selling health foods and drinks. In the future, when the people at home followed them to the county, the prefecture, or the capital, Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan would recommend the wealthy families to go to their health food therapy restaurant and order health soups and other things. In the future, the business of their shop would not be bad.

After getting up the next morning, Bai Yan and Wen from the Bai family, Xu Qingyi and Zhu from the Xu family, as well as the Xu Dafu brothers, drove ox carts and went to the town to look at houses.

After finding a human trafficker and telling them about their need to buy a house, the human trafficker took Xu Qingyi and his group around the town, looked at several houses, and finally chose two houses in an academy not far from where Qingwu and Baiyun were studying.

The two houses are located in the east of the city, with a quiet environment and not far from the town center. The transportation is very convenient. It only takes a cup of tea to walk to the academy. One of the houses is a three-story house with a front yard, a middle yard, and a back yard, as well as a small garden. There are more than a dozen side rooms, which is very suitable for living.

The other one is a two-entry house. Although it is a little smaller, it has a reasonable layout, is warm and comfortable, and has seven or eight side rooms, which is very suitable for the small family of the Bai family to live in.

Moreover, these two houses were built side by side. If the Bai family and the Xu family bought them together, they could not only be neighbors but also take care of each other.

"I think these two are the ones we should choose. The smaller one will go to your family, and the larger one will go to our family." After Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan looked around the two rooms, Xu Qingyi liked the layout, location and size of the house very much. When she saw that Bai Yan was also satisfied, she decided to take the deal.

As for the Zhu, Bai and Cui families, whether they were willing or not, and their opposition was of no avail.

Now that Xu Qingyi and Bai Yan have passed the examination to become quasi-doctors and have made a lot of money, what they say and do in their own homes is basically final. As long as they decide on something, it will basically be settled, and Zhu and others will not object.

In the end, Bai Yan bought the two-story house for two hundred taels of silver, and Xu Qingyi bought a more expensive house for three hundred taels of silver.

With one hand they paid the money and the other the house deed. After registering it at the county government office, the house officially became the property of their two families.

After buying the house, they went to find some craftsmen and started to decorate and buy furniture. Zhu and Wen personally selected the household items, and the Xu brothers were responsible for supervising the craftsmen to decorate. Everyone was very busy, but everyone was full of expectations and excitement. These are all later stories.
