Chapter 20: What Books Have You Read?
When the cool autumn breeze blew off the sycamore leaves in the yard, the first autumn rain finally came belatedly, taking away the scorching remnants of summer. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Mu Jin was a little bored and half-lying on the couch in front of the window, looking at the drizzle in the yard, as if smelling the fresh air after the drizzle outside.
She narrowed her eyes and casually put a book over her face and closed her eyes.
Holly walked in with a pot of tea, and when she saw Mu Jin's appearance, she said half-complaining, half-distressed: "The lady stayed up late last night, and the pills around her were not very anxious, and Uncle Luo didn't urge, why did you stay up so late?"
She stayed up late last night to make pills, slept a little late, and didn't have the energy to wake up in the morning.
Fortunately, she has always been like a transparent person in the mansion, and Mrs. Wang never asked her to ask for peace, lest they hate each other, so she has nothing to do in the mansion.
It's just that since beating Cai's mother the day before yesterday, the people in the yard don't dare to be so presumptuous as before, and they are a little more careful than before, so she can only boil medicine and make pills at night.
Unlike before, when the sky was blue and daylight, once her door was closed, she would not come out of the house for an afternoon, and there would be no slaves and maids to inquire what she was doing in the house.
Sure enough, God is fair, and if they want to get something, they have to pay something else in exchange, and if they want a better meal, they have to accept that they are not as free as before.
"Some opportunities are fleeting, and you have to seize the opportunity to do things to get twice the result with half the effort. Mu Jin's voice came from under the book, a little muffled.
When, when? Holly looked confused.
"The lady is saying things that the slave doesn't understand again. She pouted, her delicate eyebrows full of confusion, "The slave doesn't understand what you are talking about. ”
"What is the third sister doing?" Mu Yu's voice came from the gate of the courtyard.
Mu Jin took down the book, his apricot eyes were smiling, and his eyes were full of light, "No, the time has come." ”
The timing is the fourth lady said that Holly looked at Mu Yu who came under the oil-paper umbrella in the yard, and looked confused.
Mu Jinwan'er threw the book aside casually, "Go and welcome the fourth lady in." ”
"What is the third sister doing? Mu Yu looked like a good sister, and complained about Mu Jin when she entered the door.
When people who don't know see it, they must think that the two of them are close sisters.
Mu Jin tapped the book she had just dropped on the couch with her chin, "Isn't it raining, so I'll read some books in the house." ”
Mu Yu's eyes fell on the book.
It was an ordinary geography, Mu Yu was not interested in this kind of book, "What other books does the third sister read on weekdays besides geography?"
Mu Jin asked her to sit and replied casually: "I read a lot of books, geography, miscellaneous talks, travelogues, etc., anyway, I have nothing to do, and I will take any book and flip through it." ”
Sure enough, he has not received any serious upbringing, and he can read any book, Mu Yu secretly despises it in his heart, but he doesn't show anything on his face, he only covers his mouth and smiles, the beautiful Danfeng's eyes are full of ridicule, and it is the same as the joke between the sisters, "The third sister has a big tone, she flipped through any book, is it not possible for my sister to go through medical books and classics on weekdays?"
Medical books, classics?Mu Jin's eyes flashed with surprise.
"I haven't opened the classics, but this medical book is .......," Mu Jin paused.
Mu Yu's heartbeat couldn't help but speed up, and he looked at Mu Jin expectantly.
Mu Jin held her chin and looked at Mu Yu, "Is there something wrong with the fourth sister coming to me?"
This dead girl, she didn't even say anything halfway through, Mu Yu's heart hung in the air, and she couldn't help but hate Mu Jin for not speaking happily.
"I also chose some fabrics and jewelry the day before yesterday, thinking about giving them to the third sister, cutting a few more clothes, by the way, our sisters also talked, but as soon as I entered the house, I saw the third sister reading, so I asked the third sister what books she read, but there are very interesting, say listen to me, and I will read it when I go back." Mu Yu tugged at the corners of his mouth and explained with a smile.
"What, what my sister reads is also a secret, can't I say?" Mu Yu pretended to look at Mu Jin angrily, "Could it be that my sister is afraid that I will not be able to read the same book as you?"
"Poof" Holly couldn't hold back and laughed.
Mu Yu looked at Holly angrily, and her angry willow eyebrows were upside down, "You, what are you laughing at......?"
I don't know what to think, Mu Yu pressed down the words "give me a palm" when he got to his mouth, and only snorted heavily.
You just read the same book or more books than my lady, Holly pouted.
But her appearance was undisguised, not only Mu Jin understood it, but even Mu Yu actually understood it.
A lowly slave dared to laugh at her openly, and the anger in Mu Yu's heart rose up.
If it weren't for the experience of living for more than ten years in her previous life to remind her, Mu Yu was afraid that she would have a seizure on the spot.
Mu Jin laughed secretly, glanced at Holly, and motioned for her to go out and have fun, so as not to irritate Mu Yu here.
Holly pouted, turned her head and went out.
Mu Yu stared at Holly's delicate back, and her eyes were full of coldness.
"The third sister, this slave is too unruly. Endure and endure, but in the end I still can't hold back, Mu Yu opened his mouth to complain.
Mu Jin apologized without sincerity, "....... made the fourth sister smile. ”
But he never said anything about punishing Holly.
Mu Yu's hateful teeth itched, in the end, remembering the purpose of his coming, his expression changed and changed, and finally cheekily pulled back to the original purpose, "What? Could it be that what the third sister reads is really a secret?"
Mu Jin shook his head and smiled, "What secrets are not secrets, when it comes to medical books, although I have never read the classics, I have still read a few medical books." ”
Mu Yu's expression was half-convinced, and a touch of anticipation rose in his heart.
"So you said six the day before yesterday...... Uh, I mean it's true that the white-clothed gentleman is sick?
Mu Jin shook his head and smiled bitterly, "If you can diagnose diseases by reading a few medical skills, then it is estimated that there are many miracle doctors in the world." ”
It turned out that it really wouldn't, Mu Yu's mood was a little complicated, so she said that how could she, a girl with little knowledge, diagnose a disease, wouldn't it be to attract the attention of the six princes?
I can't see that this dead girl's scheming is not shallow.
It's just that the mother is going to be disappointed, and the dead girl just said casually, and the plan she wants to make is estimated to be in vain.
"You probably also know that my grandfather used to be a doctor, although I can't diagnose diseases, but I have heard my grandfather talk a lot of medical theories, and there are some cases he has treated" Mu Jin said slowly.
Mu Yu looked up at Mu Jin, looked at her expectantly, and her heart rose again.
Did she say that her maternal grandfather, Old Man Luo, had treated the same patient? That's why she said that the Sixth Prince was sick, and it seems that what she said was true.
Can't a dead girl talk all at once?
"However, the Sixth Prince is really sick. Mu Jin announced with a smile.
Mu Yu's eyes suddenly brightened.
