Chapter 59 – Pharmacy (1)

“Who are you?” the page boy1 asked.

1Page boy : is traditionally a young male attendant or servant, but may also have been a messenger in the service of a nobleman.

“It was Shen Chuan who asked us to come here.” Su Xiaoxiao said.

The page boy looked at the two suspiciously. A chubby village girl and a poor boy. No matter how he saw it, they didn’t look like they could get along with young master Shen.

“That’s right,” said Su Ergou, “He also said that this academy was opened by his family!”

It was no secret that Wutong Academy was opened by the Shen family, and the only son of the Shen family was named Shen Chuan.

So the page boy still didn’t believe the two of them.

“Jie2,” Su Ergou said, “That man named Shen Chuan is not a liar to us, is he? He asked us to come here to set up a stall, but when we came, we couldn’t even see the person.”

2Jie (姐) : Older sister.

“Can people set up a stall here?” he asked the page boy.

“Cannot,” the page boy flatly refused.

Su Ergou said to Su Xiaoxiao, “Jie, look at this!”

Su Xiaoxiao pondered for a moment: “When we see Shen Chuan, let’s just ask him what’s going on.”

“Still want to see him again?” Su Ergou curled his lips and muttered, “We can’t see him. We can’t even get in through the gate!”

Su Xiaoxiao turned around and said, “Then, should we go through the back door?”

Su Ergou was startled: “What?”

Half a quarter of an hour later, the two of them came to the back door of Wutong Academy.

This place was much more deserted than the front door, and the gatekeeper was an old man.

The old man sat on the chair. It looked like he was falling asleep.

In winter, it was also a skill to be able to fall asleep with the cold wind blowing.

Su Ergou whispered, “Jie, what if this person also doesn’t let us in?”

“Let’s try it first.”

Su Xiaoxiao made the worst plan. If they also couldn’t enter through the back door, then she would wait in the academy for the students to finish school.

“Uncle, I’m looking for Shen Chuan.” Su Xiaoxiao said to the old man.

The old man opened one of his eyelids first, he glanced at her lazily, and closed his eyes again.

What was the meaning of this?

“Can I go in?”

The old man continued to relax with his eyes closed.

“If you don’t say anything, then I will go in.”

Su Xiaoxiao paused and said to Su Ergou, “You go to the front door and wait. Just in case Shen Chuan comes out from there, you can tell him that I went in to look for him.”

Su Ergou said: “Okay, Jie!”

Su Xiaoxiao entered the academy.

Wutong Academy was very big, and actually she also didn’t know where Shen Chuan was.

A student wearing a white school uniform brushed past her.

She stopped the student and said, “Excuse me, I want to ask, have you seen Shen Chuan?”

The student looked at her strangely, as if he was wondering why on earth there was such a chubby girl, or thinking why this chubby girl came to find Shen Chuan.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled: “He bought something from me and I came to deliver it.”

“I see. So it was like that.” The student nodded and pointed to the southeast. “He should have gone to class. If you want to send something, you can send it to that courtyard.”

“Thank you.”

Su Xiaoxiao thanked him and walked towards the courtyard.

Along the way, she did not forget to appreciate the scenery along the way.

So this was what the academy in ancient times looked like. It was not as exquisite and glamorous as the one in the movies and TV dramas. It is just an ordinary house, without anything special.

From time to time, there was the sound of the teacher giving lectures and the sound of the scholars reading aloud. Su Xiaoxiao listened and arrived at the courtyard unknowingly.

A servant was sweeping the snow, and when he saw a chubby village girl approaching, he couldn’t help but stop her.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’m looking for Shen Chuan.”

The servant took a deep look at her, then he turned around and led her into the yard without saying anything.

He gestured to Su Xiaoxiao to wait in the side room and went out to work again.

Su Xiaoxiao put the basket on the table, sat in a chair and waited for a while. She was thinking about asking the servant when Shen Chuan would come.
