Chapter 171: Clues

Brothers, Minghui, who was practicing at the other end of the garden, saw the movement here from a distance, and he didn't care that the old man in the middle of the mountain was still staring at him, and muttered, "What's wrong with my eldest brother?" and rushed over, Nan Sheng and Shi Xiaofeng naturally hurried to follow, the eldest young master is not in good health, it can't be that he was tired from practicing just now, and he was uncomfortable, right?

The old man in the middle of the mountain frowned, Minghui has no problem caring for his brother, but his temperament is still too impulsive! Mingze is weaker, and he mainly focuses on learning literature, and his martial arts training time is much less than Minghui's, and even Nansheng and Shi Xiaofeng are much less, and he pays special attention to gradual progress when teaching Mingze to practice martial arts. Since Ming Ze practiced martial arts with him, not only has there never been anything wrong, but from the perspective of the pulse, the growth of internal force and the coordination of breath have progressed faster than others. In other words, as long as a large amount of body is not consumed, there is no problem for Ming Ze to practice martial arts at all.

Thinking so, the old man in the middle of the mountain also followed, Su Kang visited a classmate today, if there is anything wrong with his precious student, he may not know how to go crazy when he comes back.

Ming Ze looked at the three people who suddenly flew in front of him, and was very surprised: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Minghui looked him up and down before saying, "Aren't you uncomfortable, big brother?" He seemed to hear Sister Ling say what pills she said, and then ran away, could it be that he heard it wrong?

Ming Ze couldn't cry or laugh: "I just sneezed, and Sister Ling rushed to Senior Brother Shi Xin to ask for pills, but I couldn't stop it." ”

"Huh?" Minghui pursed his lips, "Surprise me!" He really thought that Sister Ling was weird, although she was very beautiful and gentle, but it just made him feel ...... False, right. It's fake, it's a bit similar to my aunt and cousin Zhang Ling'er. However, Sister Ling is Master's own niece, and he doesn't like it anymore and doesn't dare to show it.

Nan Sheng exhaled when he saw that Ming Ze was doing well: "It's okay that the eldest young master is fine, and Qiu Niangzi is also kind." "But in the middle of the day, isn't it good to find Lang Zhong if you are uncomfortable? In his opinion, although the pill is convenient. It is easier to use when it is inconvenient to find Langzhong in the middle of the night. But under normal circumstances, it is safer to ask Lang Zhong to prescribe a decoction after reading it, after all, the eldest young master's body is already weaker than others, so it is better to be cautious when drinking medicine or something.

Shi Xiaofeng's age is younger than Nansheng's. But he was not as honest and honest as Nansheng, and secretly disdainful: Kind? Not necessarily, right? Who doesn't sneeze a few times from time to time, is it so exaggerated? I'm afraid it's just an excuse to care about the eldest young master, right? He can see that as soon as Qiu Niangzi saw Shi Xin and Qi Haotian, the two sons. His eyes lit up, especially when Shi Gongzi was there. The shy and gentle posture of wanting to speak was exactly the same as the expression of the sister of his aunt's family when she saw Zhang Xiucai in the village. Well, fortunately, the two young masters are still young.

The old man who was pacing over really frowned this time, and several half-grown children could see that something was wrong. But, as an uncle, it's hard for him to say. The niece is also pitiful. Her father died when she was very young, and she was married not long after she was fifteen. Her mother is gone, too. Her appearance is top-notch in Shili and Eight Villages, and the in-laws she married are her aunt's family, I thought that the hard days were over, but after giving birth to A Xing, her stomach has not moved, which caused dissatisfaction among her in-laws, but fortunately, her husband maintained her. Unexpectedly, three months ago, her husband fell to his death while hunting, and before Qiqi passed, her in-laws couldn't wait to sell her and A-Xing, and the buyer said that he was taking them into the city to be slaves, but he resold them to the building, but fortunately they collided with their carriage so coincidentally.

The old man in the middle of the mountain also saw that Qiu Ling was too enthusiastic about his two adult apprentices, especially the eldest apprentice Shi Xin, he did not object to Qiu Ling remarrying, but his two apprentices were as desperate as him emotionally, Shi Xin was single-minded to his wife and had no intention of taking concubines, he couldn't force Shi Xin to accept Qiu Ling as a master, right?

In this way, the old man in the middle of the mountain felt sorry for his niece and didn't want to force Shi Xin, so he was extremely entangled. He wanted to persuade Qiu Ling, but the uncle didn't say something to his niece, didn't he?

I don't know why, the old man in the middle of the mountain suddenly thought of going back to Meizhuang quickly, if the girl is smart and stable, she will definitely be able to help him persuade Qiu Ling. Besides, this kind of thing is convenient for women to handle. As for Zhiruo, who is a few years younger than Qiu Ling, the old man in the middle of the mountain selectively forgets about it.

And just when the old man in the middle of the mountain was thinking about finding an honest and responsible ordinary family for Qiu Ling after returning to Los Angeles, Qiu Ling, who had taken the pill from Shi Xin but was depressed, quietly walked to the back of the wall on the south side of the garden, and took out a small paper scroll from her sleeve pocket, which was just stuffed to her by a maid in Qi Mansion, and that maid wore a white butterfly hairpin and a pink moon flower side by side on her head, which was the code she had been told before entering Qi Mansion.

When I opened the paper roll, there were only four words on the paper, except for the familiar markings: Take away the moon season. Yueji is the sixteen or seventeen-year-old maid who just gave her a paper roll.

Qiu Ling frowned slightly, Qi Haotian is the uncle's apprentice, and the uncle cherishes her very much, it should be no problem for her to ask the Qi Mansion for a maid, right?

It's just that the master didn't say that he could stick to anything, and now this means that Shi Xin has been appointed? Shi Xin's identity and status are indeed more attractive to her, if she can marry Shi Xin, Ah Xing will also be able to be next to the side of Miss Guanjia in the future, isn't it? But Shi Xin's attitude is too ...... , it was still easier for Qi Haotian to be approached with a smile on his face.

Alas, Qiu Ling sighed, the master can do whatever he asks! The master has great kindness to their mother and daughter, not to mention that the path that the master pointed her out is still a bright road to a rich life.

Before Qiu Ling walked to the embroidery pavilion in front of her, she heard a lively conversation, and the magnetic and cold voice was Shi Xin's: "Master, the apprentice still has an errand to do, so I won't be with your old man, little junior brother, Brother Ze, you have to take good care of Master and Mr. Su along the way." On Master's birthday in November, I'll go to Los Angeles to see you again. He was originally going to go together, but the master hinted that he would go first, and he also had the bottom in his heart, so he naturally didn't dare to disobey.

Qiu Ling was anxious when she heard this, why don't you go together? She still wants to take Shi Xin on the road and follow up with the capital directly. Although the Yin brothers are also handsome and look like they are also children of rich and noble families, they are still half-grown children, too young, aren't they?

Before she could think of a reason to persuade the old man in the middle of the mountain, Qi Haotian also spoke: "Yes." Anyway, Master, you are not in a hurry, it is better to stay in the South China Sea for a few more days, so that the disciples can do their filial piety more. "The capital is close to Los Angeles, no matter how busy Shi Xin is, he can still find time to visit the master a few times, he is so far away, it is too inconvenient!

The old man in the middle of the mountain was not happy: "What is all the filial piety? Am I very old? I'm not in a hurry, the Yin family girl is in a hurry." I've brought out both of her precious brothers. "How could he admit it. After drinking the wine he brought, he can't look down on the other wines, and the wine worms are going to make trouble?

Qi Haotian raised his hand and gave Minghui a brain breakdown: "People say that my father and mother hurt my child." Look, now there is only a little junior brother in the eyes of the master, and you and I have to stand aside, senior brother. ”

Shi Xin also joked rarely: "I don't sip vinegar, junior brother, if you are not convinced, you will secretly beat up the little junior brother." Don't pull me, I'm a big brother. If you don't bully your junior brother, you can help your junior brother get justice at most. "He is twenty-eight this year, only one brother and one sister, and the second junior brother is three years younger than him. It was an orphan adopted by the master, and neither of them had any younger brothers and sisters, and suddenly there was such a little junior brother as Minghui. It still feels ...... Pretty good. Well, General Yin's death is indeed strange. Originally, he had nothing to do with the Yin family, and his duty was to protect the emperor's safety, and the less involved in other matters, the better, but now, because of this little junior brother, he should also do his best.

"......" Qi Haotian, the famous jade-faced man on the rivers and lakes, had a bitter look on his face at this time, "What do I say, these two (evil) senior brothers really can't do it?"

Everyone laughed, including Minghui who covered his forehead and Mingze, who was called "Little Stone" by Qi Haotian (Shi Xin is a "Big Stone", cold and unsmiling).

"Mother, why have you been there for so long?" Under Ah Xing's call, the atmosphere of harmony was suddenly destroyed, Shi Xin first put away his smile and restored the expressionless face of the first-class guard with a knife. For Master's niece, he really wanted to treat him like a sister, but why did Qiu Ling's enthusiasm make him feel so powerless?

Qiu Ling smiled very naturally: "Mother, go and pour a glass of water for your little Uncle Mingze to take medicine." As he spoke, he placed the water cup in his hand and the small porcelain bottle containing the pill on the table, and turned to Ming Ze.

Without waiting for her to speak, Ming Ze hurriedly said: "I'm fine, I don't need to take medicine, I'm sorry to trouble Sister Ling." "He doesn't want to look for medicine for no reason. The eldest sister said that it is a medicine that is poisonous. His physical condition is already weak, with fetal poison, he can't add a little more "poison" to himself for Qiu Ling's face, okay?

Don't say it, Qiu Ling really hopes that Ming Ze will swallow the pill in front of Shi Xin and save her face, although Ming Ze has said that it is okay before. It's just a pill to cure the cold, what does it matter? Unexpectedly, Ming Ze, who has always been polite to her and keeps saying "Sister Ling", is so uncooperative and does not understand her difficulties at all. For a while, she was embarrassed and said, "You child, if you are not feeling well, you have to take medicine quickly, it is very uncomfortable to get a cold on such a hot day." In this way, Nansheng, you put the medicine away, and it will be more convenient when you need it. ”

Nan Sheng saw that Ming Ze had no objection, so he took the medicine, anyway, there was no harm in keeping the pills, and they had brought them themselves.

Ming Ze half-lowered his eyes, and no one noticed the inquiry in his eyes: his sense of smell has always been better than others, and when Qiu Ling approached, he asked about the faint jasmine, but it wasn't before. In the entire Qi Mansion, there are only a few pots of jasmine in the south corner of the garden, and the two senior brothers were discussing in Senior Brother Haotian's study just now, from here to the study, there is no need to turn there, right? In addition, where did the small piece of ash on the side of Qiu Ling's skirt come from? It looks like it should be the ash produced after the paper is burned. In a short period of time, she seems to have done a lot of things.

"Big brother, what are you thinking about staring at Master's gourd?" Minghui quipped.

Ming Ze came back to his senses: "Uh, I'm thinking, the wine brought by the master seems to be about to run out, and Senior Brother Haotian wants to stay with the master for a few more days, so he should first think of getting a wine that the master is satisfied with." Fortunately, Qiu Ling happened to be standing next to the master, he was looking at Qiu Ling's skirt, and when Minghui asked him this, everyone thought he was staring at the master's jade gourd.

A few people present laughed again, but the master's high-sounding excuse was lifted.

Ming Ze shook his head secretly, he had read too much of the thirty-six strategies that his sister gave, and he became more and more suspicious, and he could ponder for a long time at the slightest disturbance.

What he didn't know was that once the seeds of suspicion were planted, they would involuntarily take root and sprout, especially since he was originally a person with a particularly strong sense of observation and sensitivity. Su Kang's teachings and the thirty-six strategies that he could memorize backwards gave him the ability to find clues, connect seemingly unrelated clues, and associate things that others could not imagine. This ability not only helped him discover Qiu Ling's identity as a fine worker, but also played an extremely important role in the great cause of revenge and prosperity of their sisters and brothers.
