Chapter 4 Plans
There were only three Jiang Qingliu left in the house, and Min Chong said to him respectfully: "Fourth master, your injury still needs to take medicine to recuperate for a few days before you can go on the road, I will go to Yangzhou City immediately and get the medicine back." ”
Jiang Qingliu turned his head to Qin Ziming and said, "You go and take a trip to catch the medicine, and by the way, check the origin of this family." I saw that they were all dressed in plain clothes, and the woman had no decoration on her body, thinking that she was still in the period of filial piety; And although it is a farmer, even children know how to read and reason, and that Miss Wang is even more accurate in archery," Speaking of this, he smiled a little self-deprecatingly, "We have already admitted our mistakes, and we can't be pecked by geese again this time." He twisted his fingers on his knees, "Don't inquire in this village, lest you attract peeps." ”
Qin Ziming listened, a little hesitant, Jiang Qingliu seemed to see his thoughts, he slowly picked up the teacup and took another sip, and sighed: "Dongting's Biluochun, it's a pity that it's old." However, with the azure porcelain of this Ru kiln, it is also interesting. ”
Qin Ziming's eyes suddenly lit up, and he arched his hand towards Jiang Qingliu: "Master, I understand, let's do it!" ”
"Fourth Master, should I send a message to Tianxing Pavilion and order them to send a few secret guards, today's matter is really dangerous, I am afraid that the other party will not be able to strike a blow, and then send someone to assassinate him." Min Chong was a little worried.
"Well, let's let Ziming do it, I have guessed the identity of the other party. Now we are living here, fearing that the innocent people will be harmed, and when we enter Yangzhou City, they will be honest. Hmph, a group of reckless people, they don't dare to do anything in the city if they borrow a few of his courage. His handsome face was frosty, and he ordered Qin Ziming to set off immediately.
Then Jiang Qingliu has been sitting cross-legged pranayama, and Min Chong is standing aside with his arms crossed, he has only suffered a flesh injury, which has been bandaged before, and now it is already fine. Halfway through, the boy called Wang Mu came to deliver a breakfast, and there were steamed buns on the tray with white porridge and side dishes.
Jiang Qingliu saw that he always looked serious and unsmiling, even more than himself, and couldn't help but find it interesting, so he invited him to sit down on the side and asked, "Can you be enlightened?" ”
"I was enlightened at the age of four, and I passed the hospital and county exams last year." The boy sat down and replied. "Oh, so the little boy is already a child?" Tong Sheng, who is only ten years old, even in Jiang Qingliu's eyes, can be regarded as a little talented.
"Your mother and your brother and sister are the only four people living in this house?" He asked again.
"Yes, my father died a year ago." There was a hint of gloom in the boy's voice.
Jiang Qingliu asked him casually and talked a few words, and after they had breakfast, the boy walked out of the wing room with a tray, and Min Chong stepped forward to help him, but he also insisted.
Here, Wang Mu carried the tray to the kitchen built with a straw shed in the backyard, and said to Wang Jin, who was burning the fire: "See clearly, the son's sachet is mixed with gold embroidery thread, and the seal looks more precious than the jade pendant worn by Li Mingfang." Also, the younger retinue was not in the house. ”
"Really, it's better than what Li Mingfang used?" Wang Jinyi was overjoyed. Li Mingfang is a classmate of Wang Mu's previous private school, and the silk and satin village and money village opened by the family are second to none in Yangzhou City, where rich people are everywhere, and as the most favored eldest grandson in the family, what he wears is not ordinary.
"Then the entourage should have gone to grab the medicine, what did they tell you?" Wang Jin asked again.
"It's nothing, it's just a polite greeting. But can you do that? Wang Mu looked at the eldest sister suspiciously.
"Surely, I'm their savior, and I shouldn't have to pay me back." She didn't care about the doubts in her brother's words, added a handful of firewood to the stove, and said with a hint of solemnity in her tone: "Don't worry, I will do it." ”
Turning her head to see her brother frowning at the side, her eyes were quite disapproving, she was stunned at first, and then looked at herself for a while, before she reacted, she couldn't help laughing, and reached out to pinch her brother's face: "Obviously a ten-year-old little kid, pretending to be an adult all day long, and reprimanding your sister and me, you little fake Taoist!" As he spoke, he tickled him again, until Wang Mu broke his gong and laughed before stopping.
But this is really inappropriate, not to mention that there are guests at home, it is too embarrassing to be so sloppy, so she filled the stove with a handful of hard wood, turned the fire down a little, and helped her brother to the room to freshen up. She first scrubbed her face and neck, revealing her original white and tender skin, and then changed into an ivory white collared undergarment, with a lotus lotus-colored horse-faced skirt. Before he went out, he heard a babbling voice: "Eldest sister, eldest sister!" Then he saw two little babies rushing in, still holding the goldfish basket in their hands. Wang Shi smiled and said to Wang Jin: "Eldest sister, you can help us string this goldfish, my little sister and I are afraid of losing it." Wang Jin smiled secretly when he heard this, nodded his little head, and deliberately reprimanded: "You are so shallow-eyed, it's not that you haven't seen gold bills before." Wang Shi was not afraid at all, and said with words: "I saw that this is the rent given to us by others, and it is quite delicate, so I am afraid that it will be a pity to lose it, so I want to string it up." "That's it, this little fish is beautiful, big sister, look!" Wang Tang also supported his brother.
"Okay, okay, I'll put it on for you, but if you lose it, you'll be punished." Wang Hibiscus took out two red ropes from the cage, which were just right for the gold ornaments, and tied them around their necks for them, and hid them in their clothes.
She told Qi Xiaowa to go to Wang Mu to write big characters, and she went to the backyard kitchen with a cane.
Her mother, Chen, had already returned with her laundry and a prepared pheasant, and was busy under the stove. When he saw Wang Jin coming, he hurriedly urged her back to the house, saying that he was too busy. Wang Jin moved a stool and sat on the stove, and said with a smile: "Mother, let's come, although the dishes you cook are in line with your own taste, but now there are guests after all." Chen couldn't help blushing when he heard her words, patted her, and said: "You girl, you still dislike your mother, then you can cook the food from now on, I don't worry about it anymore." It turns out that Chen's family also began to really take charge of the work on the stove this year, but he has no talent, and the dishes he makes are not difficult to swallow, but they are definitely not delicious, but her children are sensible, and they never dislike her, at most they secretly complain to Wang Jin, and they are mostly in charge of Wang Jin, a little girl who loves to cook since childhood.
Wang Jin thought that Jiang Qingliu wanted to drink medicine and the food should be lighter, so he took the chicken breast from the pheasant, and made a slippery mushroom chicken slices with the mushrooms picked in the mountains, and put peppers on the remaining chickens and potatoes to make the favorite big plate chicken of his younger brothers and sisters, and chopped the toon sprouts exchanged with the villagers and fried them thinly, and finally got some green vegetables from the yard and fried them, plus the big bone broth that had been simmered in the pot for almost two hours, this meal was considered alive. Wang Jin supported the cane with one hand and waved the spatula with the other, and Chen was washing garlic and cutting vegetables for her, handing oil and salt, and she was also busy. The movement in the kitchen here also affected several people elsewhere. The three little people in the study, although they wrote big characters and read books, but the twitching little noses revealed their true thoughts at the moment. Min Chong and Jiang Qingliu in the east wing also smelled the fragrance wafting from the kitchen, and couldn't help but feel that this small farm courtyard was full of surprises.
Lunch was brought over by Wang Mu and Chen's together, the rice was glutinous, the chicken slices were soft and smooth, the toon was burnt, the bone broth was delicious, and the green vegetables were refreshing. About an hour after the meal, Qin Ziming came back with a few packets of medicine.
