"Why are there so many people?" Yue Niang asked, it stands to reason that a prefect family would not come to so many people.

The prefect's wife was a little embarrassed, "There are more children and concubines in our family, so there are more servants." This doesn't call the cleaning maids, the mother-in-law and the nurse, so there are so many talents. ”

I see.

Such a large family is enough to keep the prefect's wife busy.

However, the prefect is also in good health, and he married so many concubines.

Yueniang looked at them a little helplessly, "Let the people in the kitchen and the girls go back, anyway, the normal order in the mansion has to be carried out, otherwise it will be wrong if the men outside come back and can't even eat hot food." And the little guys who clean the courtyard, the housekeepers don't need to be here. As soon as Yueniang finished speaking, she walked away for the most part.

Cheng, these dozens are enough.

Yueniang pulled Hua Xi out again, not to ask him to do anything, but just to let him supervise.

Yueniang taught them to mash the herbs, then boil, crush and dry, and they all came again. By the time the work was over, it was already evening.

Hua Xi has also been helping out, and finally she and Yueniang are tired and collapsed to the ground.

"Yueniang, you're a liar. Hua Xi said mournfully.

"What's the matter, don't you also want to treat the sick and save people? It's only been so busy for a while, and I haven't let you go to the clinic in person. Yueniang joked with him: "When the time comes, if you ask for a consultation in person, you will definitely faint from being busy." ”

"Leave me alone, I'm already fainting from the rush now. I've been wanting to go out of the house to have a look, but I haven't gotten out yet. But I can probably imagine the scenes of people rushing for food. Hua Xi said.

"I promise you that I will accompany you out of the house tomorrow to have a look. Everything that should be taught has been taught, and we won't need to be here tomorrow, and it would be good to have the prefect's wife here to guard it then. Yueniang said.

Hua Xi nodded, "As you said, if you still ask me to do these things tomorrow, I will go on strike." ”

Yueniang looked at him and only felt funny.

"Huaxi, I think there is a big gap between you and your sister. Although you look alike, your personality is not similar at all, you are not like her brother at all, but more like her brother. ”

"The first time someone said that we were not like each other, in fact, you were wrong, we are really alike. When Hua Xi said Hua Rui, she suddenly became serious, "Because the two of us are too similar, and even sometimes what she is thinking, I know, what I am thinking, she also knows." ”

"Got a soul?" asked Yueniang.

She knows this, because there are many siblings, and siblings will feel this way.

Hua Xi nodded, "Actually, our brothers and sisters have similar personalities, they are both more rebellious, and they both want to come to live outside, but grandpa doesn't allow it." Actually, it's nothing in normal times, but when it comes to having an opinion, my sister's opinion is bigger than mine. She probably didn't think it was time yet, so she let me go. ”

"You mean she's covering you up?"

Hua Xi nodded, "It's Ang, otherwise you think I'm so easy to get out, you are stupid to be a grandfather." But seriously, I really miss them now, I miss the stamen, I miss grandpa. You said that you would accompany me to see them when I returned to the capital this time, is it really fake?"

"Well, when dyeing is real. My relationship with Hua Rui is also like that of sisters, and since I promised her to find you, I naturally want to bring you back well. And I've promised to go see her. ”

"That's good, then we can be together. Let me tell you, I have a secret base at the bottom of that valley, and I haven't even told you about the stamens, so I can take you there this time. I used to like to go there when I was alone. ”

Yueniang couldn't help but want to laugh, "You're not talking about a cave." ”

"How do you know?" the corners of Huaxi's eyes twitched, could he have been discovered? There's a little secret of his in there.

Yueniang laughed, "You think only you know." Your sister told me that you always sneak a person by yourself, but you don't know that she follows you every time. Your sister also took me there, it was full of children's play, but I didn't expect Ang Huaxi, your heart is so naïve.

"You've gone too far !! you, and you don't leave me any private place. You go there with my consent. Hua Xi didn't expect them to have already been there, and she was speechless for a while.

Yueniang was speechless, but there was a smile in her eyebrows, "Haha, you can't blame us for this, you always thought that you were the only one there." Later, every time your sister misses you, she runs there alone. But then you are so stupid, you don't even know. Yueniang couldn't help but laugh at him, in such a comparison, it seemed that Hua Rui was a little smarter than him.

"What's going on in the cave, is it good?"

"Don't think I can't see that it's all some tattered stuff you picked up. Hua Xi couldn't help but complain.

Hua Xi said in a lamented voice, he actually said that his treasures, those treasures were all taken back by his hard work, you must know that there is nothing in the valley, he has walked a long way to pick up those so-called rags.

It took him a long time to know that stuff.

Looking at Yueniang's smiling appearance, she sighed, "That's natural, a child like me, who has lived in the valley since he was a child, is naturally not as good as you living outside, you have everything, you have seen everything." Hua Xi said that she was very pitiful and started the miserable mode.

"Yes, come less. Your sister isn't just like you, why didn't she pick up these tattered problems?" Yueniang looked at him and said.

"That's natural, she's a girl, naturally she likes to raise flowers and plants, tease butterflies, dance or something. You know, I'm a boy, so I'm naturally naughty. It's always annoying to tinker with some herbs all day long. Hua Xi explained.

Yueniang nodded, "It's as if you should take it for granted." ”

"That's not it, when I was a child, I didn't even have a playmate except for my sister. I really don't know how I've come through so many years. ”

"It's not freezing until you're hungry, and I'm not satisfied. Yueniang said with a smile.

"Naturally, we were not satisfied, and I didn't know what the reason was, but my grandfather took us to live in the valley, because we were young and ignorant before, and we didn't remember much at all. I was just a few years old, and my sister was younger than me. So I don't understand what grandpa did, and our parents, I haven't seen it at all, and I don't know what happened, but every time I ask, my grandfather will be very angry, so we two brothers and sisters don't even dare to ask. Hua Xi said, "So you say that we are miserable, not only do we have no toys to play with, but we don't even have the love of our parents." ”

Yueniang nodded, she understands this feeling, but she is not angry, she has grown up with her grandmother since she was a child, and her grandmother is her relative, although she is still very disappointed, but she has never lost it if she has not gotten it, so it has little impact on her, that is, she is disappointed.

"But do you have a grandfather who loves you, and a sister who cares about you, and you still have someone you like in the future who will be devoted to you, isn't it good?" Yueniang said with a smile.

Hua Xi suddenly got up, looked at Yueniang and said, "Then you are the one who loves me, okay?"

"What nonsense? Yueniang was furious, "I'm about to get married." ”

"So what, what about getting married, not to mention that you are not married yet. Hua Xi looked indifferent, "Haven't you heard a word?"

"What?"

"As long as the hoe is swung well, there is no corner that cannot be dug down. ”

..........

What the hell, where did you learn this nonsense?

Yueniang was a little speechless, got up from the ground, and asked Zhuru to prepare some juice for everyone to drink. Then sat on the stone bench to enjoy the coolness, "I was a little too unparticular just now, and I was so tired that I was lying on the ground, but fortunately no one looked at us, otherwise it would be too embarrassing." ”

"That's something, I've done it a lot before. Before, my sister and I were lying in the valley resting, basking in the sun, not to mention how comfortable. Where it's like being outside, it's estimated so much. ”

"Since you still like the valley, let's go back to the valley. Yueniang said.

"No, no, no, it's better to be outside. Good outside. Even if the valley is good, it's okay to go back and see, if I am allowed to go back and live in it now, I will definitely die of humiliation. In fact, when I went back this time, I also wanted to convince my grandfather and Hua Rui that we would come out and live together. Although there are a lot of medicinal herbs in the valley, even if the medicinal herbs are picked and made into medicinal herbs, they are not all piled up in the valley, and they are not taken out for other people's use. Hua Xi said.

Yueniang thought about it, but she agreed with Huaxi's idea, but grandpa didn't come out so easily, there must be something he had to scruple about.

"Did Grandpa tell you why he didn't let you out?"

"Grandpa said that there are a lot of bad people in the outside world and will kill them, so he said that it was for our good and didn't let us out. Hua Xi said.

Yueniang nodded, "Probably, it's very likely that grandpa has some enemies outside." ”

"Will it?"

Yueniang nodded, "This is just suspicion, after all, there is no reason, why did grandpa say that." And grandpa is also very old, he must have experienced a lot of things, it stands to reason that he should have seen it very thoroughly, and he shouldn't be so afraid. So, Grandpa must have experienced something unforgettable, and I even think that this incident may have something to do with your parents, so he instinctively wants to protect you. ”

Hua Xi thought about it, and suddenly became heavy, he felt that what Yueniang said was right.

That's why now grandpa is so specialized in medicine, and he has a strong desire to protect them. It must have been a last resort to bring them to the valley, and their parents should still be very young, so why are they gone?

These grandfathers didn't tell them, and it seemed that everything was buried in the bottom of the grandfather's heart.

After a while, Zhuru and Zhuling brought a lot of juice for everyone to drink, and everyone happily took it and said thank you, Yueniang, and then chatted for a while and continued to make pills.

Zhuru gave the juice to Yueniang and Huaxi, one was mango, and the other was cantaloupe-flavored. These two fruits can be eaten here, and it is said that these two fruits are only available on offering, but I didn't expect that there are also them here.

Zhuru said that the kitchen told them that there would be more fruits in the south here, so they were exchanged from some places outside, and some areas were rich in cantaloupe, so they exchanged for local fruits, so it was more convenient to eat fruits here.

Yueniang lowered her eyes and said so.

But now the people outside can't afford to eat, let alone these precious fruits, and even the common fruits can't be eaten. Yueniang remembered that when she came, even the bark was gone, saying that she was eaten by these people.

Sure enough, people eat everything when they are hungry.

After all, the taste of starving to death is not pleasant, and the streets and alleys are full of people who have starved to death, which is very miserable. There are also many children, thin like little monkeys, completely out of shape.

It's very pitiful.

And they can eat these fruits here.

Yueniang sighed, "I don't know how they went." ”

"You don't have to worry, aren't you at ease with your fiancé doing things? The crown prince shouldn't have a problem, after all, he has the emperor's order now, and this time the matter will definitely be resolved satisfactorily, you can rest assured." Hua Xi knew she was worried, and they couldn't go out and have a look.

"If you're really worried, let's go out and have a look. Hua Xi suddenly widened her eyes and suggested.

"Well, you don't look at what time it is, they are coming back soon, and after they come back, they will discuss the results of such a day, and they will also keep accounts or something, and when the time comes, they will help them as much as they can, no matter what, three stinkers will top one Zhuge Liang. After Yueniang finished speaking, Hua Xi laughed, "Then who do you say is the stooge, are you a stinker, or the prince is." ”

Yueniang rolled her eyes, "You don't have to be big or small, I'll just listen to these words, if someone with a heart listens to it, it will inevitably go to the prince to chew the root of the tongue." ”

After Yueniang finished speaking, Hua Xi looked around, "There shouldn't be many such people." ”

Hearing him say this, Yueniang smiled.

Or Huaxi is too simple and too kind.

Not only do there be no such people, but there are too many.

Hua Xi saw that Yueniang drank cantaloupe-flavored, so she took it and drank it herself.

Yueniang was a little helpless, "Why are you so unparticular." ”

"So what, I don't dislike you. ”

.....

She doesn't need him to dislike her, okay?

"You two are hiding here. The prefect came over, "They are back, please come over, Miss, it just so happens that dinner in the kitchen is almost ready." ”

Yueniang nodded and tidied up her clothes, "Let's go." ”

"Do you want to eat something delicious?" asked Hua Xi.
