Ai Ye and Bai Zhi went to Li's side, and Xia Ruan had a little maid named Fennel by her side.

Speaking of fennel, Duran is somewhat proud.

When she went out to buy medicine, she saw the frozen and dying fennel curled up in a ball and squatted in the corner.

When Duran got closer, he noticed that Fennel's thin body was holding a month-old baby.

She gave Fennel a tael of silver, but she didn't want Fennel to follow her to the Xia Mansion, and she fainted outside the mansion.

After Xia Ruan knew what to say, he asked people to bring fennel back.

Fennel Huaiyan people, this year's Huaiyan harvest is not good, too many people starved to death, and groups of displaced people only want to flee to Kyoto.

It's a pity that too many people starved to death on the way—

Fennel's parents went to Kyoto, leaving her and her month-old sister behind. Last night, my sister had a high fever that did not go away, and she urgently found the hospital, but the doctors thought she was a beggar and could not afford to pay for the consultation, so they refused to see her sister. Fennel had no choice but to sit outside the infirmary, but she didn't want to meet Du Ruo.

It's just that Xia Ruan showed a hint of surprise when he saw the child in Fennel's arms.

This kid ...... It's too much like someone she's ever seen......

"Does this kid have a name?" Xia Ruan thought for a moment before saying to Fennel.

Fennel nodded: "Back to Miss, the slave's sister is called Gou Yu." ”

Xia Ruan smiled sarcastically when he heard this, and it was fleeting: "Then it will be called Bai Teng in the future." ”

Du Ruo, who was standing on the side this time, frowned, but did not speak.

White vine is a herb. The book says: bitter and salty, hot, poisonous.

Du Ruo thought about the books Xia Ruan had read recently, so he didn't continue to pay attention to it.

Fennel is very well-behaved and diligent, and many times she doesn't need Du Ruo to teach rules at all, so she knows what to do and what not to do. She didn't do too much, she only saw her sister once a day, and she wouldn't even go to see it once when she was busy. Du Ruo was a little relieved, thinking that even if she got married in the future, fennel could take her place.

After all, well-behaved children are really hard to find.

However, Xia Ruan didn't pay much attention to fennel, and Du Ruo once took advantage of fennel's absence. asked Xia Ruan softly: "Miss." Don't you like fennel? ”

"It's fine." Xia Ruan didn't think about it, and continued to do the needlework on his hands, "It's not annoying." ”

Du Ruo was speechless for a while, Xia Ruan would not hate someone for no reason. But Xia Ruan didn't like fennel very much. Du Ruo saw Xia Ruan say this. He asked no more.

After a while, Du Ruo said again: "Xiao Jiugongzi, he ......"

This time, Xia Ruan stopped what he was doing. looked at Du Ruo: "Huh? What happened to him. ”

Du Ruo hesitated a little, thought for a while before saying: "A few days ago, I heard from the sixth son that Xiao Jiugongzi has been in close contact with the prince recently. And ......"

Xia Ruan understood what Du Ruo was worried about, and she explained slowly: "He'll be fine, my third uncle won't take a fancy to someone at will." ”

Du Ruo and Du Lan remembered Xiao Jiu's past kindness, and it was normal for them to be afraid that something would happen to Xiao Jiu.

But Xia Ruan knew that Xiao Jiu would not have an accident at all.

That person always likes to play with people in applause.

She originally thought that Xiao Jiu would come to visit her after entering Beijing, but after these few months have passed, this person has not reacted at all. She was a little puzzled, could it be that the camellia that Xiao Jiu sent in the past was given for nothing?

Sometimes, Xia Ruan often thinks about the days when in her previous life, the man who was as gentle as jade would always listen to her by her side. At that time, she was not Mrs. Pingyang Hou, and he was just a third-grade official, and there was a lot to say between the two of them. Even if she was reliving her life, Xia Ruan couldn't find someone who could talk to her.

However, the only thing that surprised Xia Ruan was Nanting.

The things sent by Nanting became more and more valuable, and Xia Ruan smacked his tongue.

It's not that she hasn't seen anything better, but she's never seen anyone give away these precious gold and silver jewelry as gadgets.

Nanting also said something at that time, which was enough to make Xia Ruan speechless.

Nanting said: "Worthless little things, Miss Bo San is happy, thank you for saving your life." ”

The corners of Xia Ruan's mouth twitched badly at that time, Nanting was worthy of being from the Western Regions, and he would always say the wrong thing.

When did she save his life?

However, Xia Ruan and Nanting made another deal, if this deal is completed, she will be able to know the matter of Princess Qinghe in Riqinghe.

She had always suspected the identity of Mo Yan, but she couldn't find anyone on her side to check it all out. So Xia Ruan told Nanting about this, and at that time, Nanting said that there was no unprofitable business in the world, and he could naturally help Xia Ruan find out about Mo Yan, but Xia Ruan also had to help him with something.

Nanting's conditions were a little difficult for her, but they were still within her acceptable range.

After she agreed, Nan Ting smiled and praised: "You are much better than Xiao Jiu, his brain is ...... Tsk, I didn't take advantage of him. ”

Xia Ruan couldn't help but laugh when she thought of this.

The person who can take advantage of Xiao Jiu, she has never seen one in her previous life.

That person always has the ability to do this-

Du Ruo saw Xia Ruan laughing, and he was no longer nervous.

After a while, Fennel walked in with a medicine bowl: "Miss, this is a decoction sent by the lady to the slave, saying that it is to replenish the body." ”

Xia Ruan is afraid of the cold, and these days Li has found a lot of good prescriptions to condition her body.

"Well, you can rest it on the table." Xia Ruan said softly, "You go to the kitchen and say, I want to eat mutton stewed radish tonight, let them prepare one." ”

Fennel nodded hurriedly when she heard this: "The slave will do it." ”

As soon as Fennel left, Xia Ruan said to Du Ruo: "Go and pour it." ”

Du Ruo was slightly stunned, looking at Xia Ruan's expression with some surprise.

She couldn't help but take out the silver needle from her cuff, and then put it in the decoction to try it, and found that there was no trace of poison in the decoction, and she was even more puzzled in her heart.

"I'm sick of the heart, not chills." Xia Ruan thought for a while and explained to Du Ruo, "I was almost frozen when I was a child, so I was afraid and didn't need to take medicine." ”

Du Ruo listened to Xia Ruan's words, showed a bitter smile, and took the medicine bowl and poured out the decoction inside.

Xia Ruan said that the colder the weather, the more scared she became.

After the beginning of spring next year, she is ready to buy the vacant land on the west side.

In the past, her restaurant was built there.

People in Kyoto don't like to live in the west of the city, the imperial city is in the south of the city, the east side is inhabited by officials, the north side is inhabited by merchants' families, and the west side is generally inhabited by some miscellaneous people because of the word "west".

But she knew that in the future, Xicheng would become more prosperous than Beicheng because of the appearance of someone.

Thinking of this, she began to think about how to talk to Yoo Chang Won about this.

After all, the person who went out to help her with this matter could only be Liu Changyuan.

Xia Ruan thought for a while and glanced out the window, winter was about to pass.

The cold won't be there anymore......

……

The sun and the moon are like each other, and as soon as the beginning of spring arrives, Enko's holy decree will come down.

For this reason, Li An also came to Xia Ruan once, he lost his usual chic, and he was more panicked.

"If I don't make the list, my old man will definitely beat me to death."

"Cousin, do you think it's too late for me to run away now? I don't want to participate in this Enco at all. ”

"I'll just say I can't do it, I don't know what Lu Dao will take now, cousin, help me quickly."

Ang Lee crackled and said a lot, and as he spoke, he was still holding the pastry, looking as weird as he was.

Xia Ruan was worried about Li An at first, but after listening to it for a long time, he got used to it.

Because she listened too much......

Li An thought about it and said a little unhappily: "Do you know the way?" My father actually said that if I didn't know the importance of Enke this time, I would ask the third son. ”

"Huh?" When Xia Ruan heard this, he finally spoke, "Why?" ”

Li An showed a depressed expression, and said weakly: "If I knew the Tao, would I still tell you?" But Xiao Jiu, I don't think he's a simple person. A few days ago, after Xiao Jiu and Xiao An met courtesy. You don't know what Xiao Anli said, it's unbearable, but Xiao Jiu didn't get angry, and still smiled and talked to Xiao Anli. At that time, I only said that Xiao Jiu was afraid of Xiao Anli, after all, Nan Xiao was alone, but Dong Xiao was ...... But guess what's going on? ”

What else can happen after the worst, the unlucky one must be Xiao Anli.

Xiao Jiu, like in his previous life, always has a smile on his face in front of people, but what he does behind his back is terrifying.

Xiao Anli this time, I'm afraid something has happened.

"You can't guess." Li An saw that Xia Ruan didn't speak, and proudly thought that Xia Ruan couldn't guess, and then relished it, "Later, Xiao Anli always met the county lord of Changning for some reason in the past few days, Ha Luha, you didn't see Xiao Anli's face, it was as black as charcoal." Naturally, he didn't dare to offend the Twelve Princes, so he had to make a smile to the county lord of Changning, and there was still ......"

The more Li An spoke, the happier he became, his eyes were full of excitement, "Later, Xiao Anli simply hid in the house and didn't come out, but as a result, the twelve princes personally brought the county lord of Changning to visit, and at that time, the county lord of Changning took the pastries he made to Xiao Anli, and this Xiao Anli didn't eat it, and it wasn't if he didn't eat it." In the end, he still ate these pastries, but after that, he had diarrhea all day long. ”

Xia Ruan had a smile on her lips, this really seemed like Xiao Jiu's approach.

However, Xiao Jiu did this, which was nothing more than a warning to Xiao Anli that he could take his life at any time.

Xiao Jiu was also like this in his previous life, and Xiao Anli, who was scared, began to lose his hair after being scared.

Sometimes it's harder than living, that is, life is better than death.

Xiao Anli had to live, because Dong Xiao still had to rely on him to support him.

But what will be the result of Enco this time?

Xia Ruan didn't know why, and he wanted to know what the result of this time was.

That person, will it shine again? (To be continued......)

PS: There's one more more, I'm sorry for being late! It's hard work, it's hard work!
