The plums in his mouth were sour, and when Feng Qiao chewed and spoke, his voice was not clear.

"Baili's doctor is becoming more and more incompetent, why don't you prescribe me some medicine, it's soup and water every day, when will these things be drunk?"

Lingyue saw her biting her plum cheek and complaining in a low voice, and chuckled: "Madame said this, my uncle is going to be sad, the slave maid saw the prince forcing my uncle to write a new dish for my wife yesterday." ”

"My uncle was still complaining in the morning, saying that the prince was squeezing him, and that if he continued like this, he didn't know if his medical skills were refined or not, and he was afraid that he would become a cook first. ”

Feng Qiao opened his eyes when he heard this, and couldn't help but laugh the next moment.

Lingyue took the bowl away, and Feng Qiao picked up another unsigned letter and read it.

Although the letter was not signed, it could have been sent from a place north of Bac Ninh, and it was possible to guess who it was.

After all, she was in that place, and she only knew the master and apprentice.

There was something in the letter, and when it was opened, it fell directly, and Feng Qiao hurriedly reached out to catch it.

"What is this?"

Feng Qiao looked at the copper bell in his hand, the bell on it was not big, and the three were tied with red ropes, each of which had a strange pattern engraved on it.

When she looked closer, she felt that the thing looked a little like a horse, but it was carved with tiger-like lines, and the tail was a little dark red.

Feng Qiao looked at it carefully for a long time, but he didn't recognize it, so he could only put it aside, and then took the letter next to him and looked at it.

It was only the letter that unfolded, and what she saw almost made her squirt out the plums.

"Ahem..."

Feng Qiao choked and hurriedly spit out the plums.

Lingyue next to her was startled, and hurriedly poured water for her, while asking, "What's wrong with Madame?"

Feng Qiao hurriedly took a breath and said angrily: "It's nothing, I just haven't seen such a brazen person." ”

Lingyue was a little curious when she heard this, and Feng Qiao directly handed the letter to Lingyue.

After Lingyue took it curiously, when she saw what was written on it clearly, she couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth.

There were only a few sentences on that piece of paper, and that was to sum it up.

"Old man, I'm living a miserable life now, I have no money to spend, I heard that the little girl became a princess, she is extremely rich, I don't know if I can support a little, the old man does not take money in vain, and he has 30,000 taels of silver with this thing, of course, it would be better if he gave some gold. ”

The handwriting on the letter looks very neat, strong and powerful, but there is no compelling momentum, but in front of the last 30,000 taels is several black crosses, and you can vaguely see the words five hundred in front.

After the word was scribbled, three thousand taels were written on the back in the handwriting of teeth and claws.

As if he was not satisfied, he smeared it out and replaced it with 8,000 taels, then erased it again, changed it to 30,000 taels, and finally when the ink was about to dry, he added the last sentence to ask for gold.

The corners of Lingyue's mouth twitched, and she almost didn't have to think about it to know who wrote it.

Almost instantly, she remembered the unobtrusive Xi Yiyan she had seen when she was in Hefu County before.

"I'm afraid he's not crazy, he wants to exchange a string of bells for 30,000 taels..."Lingyue said speechlessly.

Feng Qiao couldn't cry or laugh.

She thought that Xi Yiyan was writing to her for something, but she didn't expect him to be short of money to spend.

She remembered Xi Yiyan clearly, when the old man left from Hefu County, he had said that he might not come down again in his life after returning to Yuncang Mountain.

At that time, Feng Qiao was serious, even if he knew that the old man's temperament was a little unreliable, he couldn't help but sigh a word of being a master in the world, but who knew that after less than half a year, Xi Yiyan took Xu Qiu to "swagger and deceive" under her banner in Beining, eating and drinking.

The old man would write a letter from time to time, most of the letters were ghostwritten by Xu Qiu, saying all things that were out of tune, and he was known for contacting feelings, and by the way, supervising whether she was causing trouble in the world.

Feng Qiao has a good impression of Xi Yiyan, even if she has only met him a few times, she also treats him as a New Year's friend.

For some of the things that Xi Yiyan did, when he heard the news sent back from the north, he just smiled and ignored it, not only that, but he would also let people go to Yuncang Mountain with a little bit of something during the New Year's holidays, and she didn't know that he took Xu Qiu to her name from time to time, and she didn't know about going to the chamber of commerce in Beining to eat and drink.

But he didn't expect that the old man opened his mouth this time, and he asked for 30,000 taels when he opened his mouth.

Feng Qiao rubbed his head and chuckled: "Really...... The older you get, the more shameless you become. ”

Lingyue shook the bell and found that the bell looked a little old, and the sound made by the bell in the middle when it hit was not crisp at all, but dull.

She couldn't help but be even more speechless, the feelings were not new, but the old goods that the old man didn't know where to turn them out?

"Madam, shall we give him silver?"

Feng Qiao laughed, "Ignore him, send a letter to the people of Beining to prepare five hundred taels, and hand it over to Xu Qiu personally, not to give it to Xi Yiyan, otherwise he will be asked to fiddle with his wine and spoil it." ”

Xi Yiyan has always wanted to brew a peerless world for a long time, and he has ruined a lot of things in the past few years.

A lot of wine came out, but almost all of it went into his stomach.

Lingyue couldn't help but laugh when she heard this, thinking that the old man would see the silver but not get it when the time came, I was afraid that she would be so angry that she jumped to her feet.

Lingyue put the bell away and was about to put the letter away, but when she turned it over, Feng Qiao swept her eyes and saw something written on the back of the letter, she hurriedly shouted, "Lingyue, wait a minute." ”

"What's wrong with ma'am?"

"Give me the letter, it looks like there's something written on the back. ”

Lingyue didn't think about it when she heard this, so she handed over the letter directly.

After Feng Qiao took it, he turned it over directly, and saw that there were words on the back, and the handwriting should be Xu Qiu's.

"More than a month ago, the master occasionally calculated, knowing that you have a pregnant star in your body, but you are afraid of hurting your body and worrying about your life. The name of the thing on the bell is Lushu, and it is suitable for the descendants of Pei, remember to wear it at all times. Take five hundred taels of silver and give porridge to do good, shelter the young son, and turn it into good fortune. ”

Feng Qiao looked at the words on the back of the letter and was directly stunned.

Pregnant star?

Xu Qiu: Did they calculate that she was about to get pregnant?

But Bai Lixuan once told her that her current body is not suitable for pregnancy at all, and Liao Chuxiu has to take measures every time she is happy with her before and after this, just because she is afraid that she will conceive a child, how can she be about to get pregnant?

But for Xu Qiu and Xi Yiyan's words, Feng Qiao was convinced.

If they didn't really figure out anything, how could they send such a string of bells in a daze?

Although Xi Yiyan is sometimes a little out of tune and likes to joke, Xu Qiu will never lie to her about this kind of thing, and he also solemnly told her that she must not leave the bell, so the current situation is that she is pregnant?
