Chapter 101: Listening to Firecrackers in the Middle of the Night [5]

When she opened her eyes again, Bai Ping was cleaning in the house, and Zhu Yan sat up and rubbed her Baihui acupoint vigorously, wondering how she had returned to the house.

"Girl, you're awake!" Bai Ping happily pulled her, and her little face seemed to bloom, "If you don't wake up, you won't be able to catch the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner!" ”

Zhu Yan was stunned and blinked his sleepy eyes, "Isn't tonight a little Chinese New Year's Eve?" ”

"It's still a young year, you've slept all day!" Apple poked her forehead and puffed out her cheeks, "So snooze." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What's going on? Zhu Yan couldn't react for a while, wasn't he in Zhuyuan......? At that time, I tripped over the threshold, and I thought I was going to fall, but I was held up.

His thoughts suddenly became entangled here, and it was at that time that he was choked by someone as soon as he saw the white in front of him, and then he lost consciousness, who was that personβ€”β€”?

The first to react was Yuan Rin, after all, he could choke the blood vessels just right, so that he could temporarily fall into a coma without being hurt, and he must have studied a lot of medical skills, but after thinking about it, if he wanted to make himself unconscious, it was enough to use the handkerchief stained with the drug, why bother? Is it to deliberately mislead one's own thoughts?

His head was confused for a while, Zhu Yan rubbed the corners of his forehead again, and breathed a long sigh of relief, not thinking about these things for the time being, "What about those medicines?" ”

"Hmph, what about those medicines!" Bai Ping flattened her mouth, very unhappy, "Mingzi said that the girl was tired like this to save a kid, and when she came back, she gave him medicine and medicine, but the woman she didn't know even said 'thank you'." Why did the girl bother doing such a thankless job? ”

"So, the kid has already taken the medicine?" Zhu Yan didn't bother to care about Bai Ping's complaints, she was not a person who was willing to suffer a dumb loss. But she is not a person who likes to regret, since she decided to save the child, and now that the child has been saved, her purpose has been achieved, as for the woman's attitude towards herself, it is not within her consideration.

"If you eat it, you won't die." Apple's expression was faint when she saw her. Dissatisfied, he moved to her side, and taught bitterly, "Girl." How can you be so kind? If you marry in the capital in the future, that kind of big family is much more terrible than the Xu family, and you don't have any bones left that you will be eaten by those evil women if you are not careful! ”

Zhu Yan helplessly held the corners of his forehead, and wanted to sleep in the quilt. Avoid Apple's chatter.

I'm still a little dizzy. But she also remembers very well that Apple had been muttering these words in her ear at least ten times, and at one time she was in tears, as if she really saw that she had "nothing left of the dregs that had been eaten".

Seeing that Zhu Yan was not listening to her teachings seriously, Bai Ping squinted and began to take a nap, and hurriedly grabbed Zhu Yan's shoulders and shook them directly, "Girl, can you still send your letter to Yuan Gongzi?" ”

"Oops!" Only then did Zhu Yan remember that night, he casually put the reply on the table. Yesterday, I hurriedly went to send the Spring Festival couplets, but I left the reply letter behind. "On those days, you take a cover for me, and I'll write the address."

Bai Ping sighed, "Alas, when I talk about Yuan Gongzi, my mind will come back......" While looking for the letter Zhu Yan said with a pen and paper on the table, he didn't want to find it three times back and forth, and almost turned the desk upside down, but he couldn't find the letter.

"What's going on? Could it have been blown away by the wind? Zhu Yan was slightly annoyed, lifted the quilt, picked up the felt carpet on the side and draped it, walked a few times to rummage in person, and after two times, he still found nothing.

Standing in front of the window and sighing heavily, she closed her eyes and slowly recalled the scene of that night, she clearly remembered that the written reply was pressed under the lampstand, but it was now gone, in her own room...... What the hell is going on? It is really unconvincing to let her believe that she was blown away by the night wind again.

Zhu Yan and Apple were wrestling, the sound of slow-dragging footsteps sounding outside the corridor, and then, the small door connecting to the corridor came loose and opened, and the dust that had accumulated over the years rushed into the room with the afterglow of the west.

It was Xu Silk Zhen who came in, and seeing that Zhu Yan had woken up, Xu Silk Zhen breathed a sigh of relief imperceptibly, and then lowered her face, "Ah Yan, why are you not careless at all?" ”

"Ahem...... Mother, that...... How did I get back to the house? Zhu Yan stepped forward and smiled flatteringly, since Xu Suzhen was so angry, she must have known that she almost fell, so would she know who the person who was holding her was?

"Someone sent you back." Xu Suzhen still had a cold face and was casually perfunctory.

Zhu Yan lowered her face, she was stunned at that time, so it was naturally impossible for her to go back to the house by herself, didn't Xu Suzhen's words make it clear that she knew about it, but she didn't tell herself?

There seemed to be a small brush on his heart, which was brushed straight and itchy, gritted his teeth, and simply stuck to it to be coquettish, "Mother, does my daughter know that she is wrong...... Tell me, who sent me in? ”

Bai Ping laughed on the side, then smiled and bent over, and it took a long time to straighten up, "It's good for the girl to be coquettish, you might as well be coquettish with your son in the future, I'm afraid that many difficult things will pass." ”

"You girl, you don't leave the ......" Zhu Yan glared at her hatefully, could it be that the little girl in this era likes to worry about her girl's marriage so much?

"Alright, stop arguing." Xu Suzhen patted Zhu Yan and perfunctory the matter without a trace, "It's not too early, let's go down...... There are a lot of people this year, and we may not have been together like this in many years. ”

Zhu Yan saw that her expression was a little sad, and she didn't want to ask about other things for a while, so she casually applied some gouache, changed into a brocade robe sprinkled with red flowers on a white background, and took Bai Ping down with her.

Six red candles are lit in the stove room, illuminating the original dilapidated house with some warm brilliance.

Granny Liu and Wang Ximing had already sat down and were chatting with foam, while Liu Zixin was busy serving tea and delivering food.

Zhu Yan greeted the two elders with a smile, and when she saw that Granny Liu was also drinking wine in a big bowl, her eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly, and she stretched out her hand to stop her, "You are old, your spleen and stomach are weak, and you can't drink." ”

"Ouch, little girl, don't be such a mother-in-law!" Granny Liu pulled her mouth with her teeth falling out, and her old eyes turned to her, "This life is destined by God, and the old woman drinks more or less." ”

Wang Ximing agreed, spit out a smoke ring proudly, and echoed loudly, "What this old man said is reasonable, Yanzi, don't persuade me to have any liver or lungs, we only know that we will be happy for a while, why do you care so much?!" ”

Zhu Yan wiped her forehead, feeling that she didn't have much to say to someone like this who didn't even care about her life, so she smiled and sat down with Apple in a seat far away from them.

The dishes were put on the table one after another, and they were much more delicate than Zhu Yan imagined, and she couldn't help but glance at Bai Ping curiously, but saw Bai Ping shrug her shoulders and quietly pointed at Xu Suzhen.

Only then did Zhu Yan remember that Xu Suzhen was also the housewife of a big family in the capital in the past, and she must still have some ability in cooking, so she stopped asking about these things, and took some of her favorite food with peace of mind, and wholeheartedly filled her hungry stomach for a day.

The others chatted casually, and somehow they got to the income of Zhu Yan's pharmacy.

This shop is said to be managed by Liu Zixin both internally and externally, but the accounts have always been handed over to Zhu Yan for personal purposes, so as soon as Wang Ximing asked about it, Liu Zixin looked straight at Zhu Yan.

Zhu Yan pursed her lips, took a sip of rice wine, smiled, and nodded to him casually.

Liu Zixin breathed a sigh of relief, and then told Wang Ximing a little about the income of the shop, but he still concealed some - others are not stupid, and naturally know that Zhu Yan's maternal uncle's ability to mix money is definitely not lost to himself, just looking at so many dogs in the front yard, I feel distressed, no matter whether it is a purebred or a unique product, but it is all silver.

"Ouch, our swallows are out of breath, and a little girl has saved so much dowry money!" Wang Ximing slapped the table of eight immortals and shook the small cup on it, "Our Hong'er is not blessed, but I don't know who will be blessed in the future......"

The corners of Zhu Yan's mouth twitched slightly, didn't he just want to ask for money? Is it necessary to have any dowry or the cousin called Wang Hong?

In fact, Zhu Yan had already thought about it, she opened this shop to leave some money for Xu Suzhen and them, as for herself...... If Yuan Rin really plans to marry her and return to Beijing, not only will he not be rare with this little money, but he is afraid that he will have to order himself not to do business anymore, thinking of this, he can't help but have a bitter face, if his master is really a person who travels through like himself, why don't he brainwash him?

"Hehe, uncle is not rare for your money." Wang Ximing saw that she was distracted and didn't speak, and her pretty face was still bitter, so he just made her unhappy, and hurriedly smiled, "It's just that our house is too dilapidated, so many people live, and now it's more comfortable, it's better to repair it." ”

"Such a trivial matter, why should Uncle Lao worry about it?" Zhu Yan pursed his lips and smiled, he didn't say it, he wanted to do it too, "When this year is over, let Brother Liu hire someone, okay?" ”

"Done, done! Swallows are sensible! Wang Ximing smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into a line, and sighed that his nephew's daughter had come to understand when she was sick.

After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Wang Ximing said that he was very bored at home, and proposed that a few people bring some food to the wasteland where the poor live to talk about the sky together, and Granny Liu agreed and pulled Liu Zixin hard, and Bai Ping hurriedly pushed to accompany Zhu Yan and slipped upstairs with her.

Xu Suzhen didn't go either, and called Zhu Yan to speak in the corridor.

It was the middle of the night, and the sound of firecrackers echoing in the empty village.

Xu Suzhen's face was a little solemn, "Actually, you don't have to agree to the repair of the house, we just need to move out in the future, this house is reserved for your second cousin, you don't have to be so ......"

"Mother......" Zhu Yan pursed her lips and blinked, "Actually, this house is already mine, and my cousin secretly sold the title deed to me." (To be continued......)
