Chapter 72: A Spiritual Knot [8]
"Zhu Yan's father is also a businessman, and it is indispensable for a woman to inherit her father's business." Zhu Yan pursed her lips and smiled.
"Mr. Juzhi is an official who has entered the business, how can he generalize?" Yuan Xuanqing blurted out, and when he saw Zhu Yan smiling, he realized that he was speechless.
Zhu Yan moved his lips slightly, but he didn't know what to say for a while, and the two of them just stood under the grapefruit tree in the courtyard, and the white petals mixed with the rich fragrance fell on their shoulders from time to time.
After another half a moment, Zhu Yan pursed his lips and smiled a little bitterly, "Childe really knows the identity of his father." ”
Yuan Xuanqing saw that there was a little disappointment and vigilance after being deceived in her gentle eyes, and lowered his head to explain in a low voice, "Father and Mr. Juzhi were originally very good friends, but Mr. couldn't accept some of his father's actions, so he ......."
"I know." Zhu Yan shook his head slightly, "I can understand what Ling Zun did, it's just ...... Why did Childe ......? She is a modern person, and she will not be unable to see whether there is integrity in changing the dynasty, but Yuan Xuanqing's seemingly polite deception really made her feel cold, and she didn't even want to say anything else for a while, took a deep breath, and turned around to leave.
"Ah Yan!" Yuan Xuanqing saw that she was annoyed, and quickly caught up with her, blocking Zhu Yan's way, "Ah Yan, I only don't want to tell you the truth when you think like Mr., and I don't mean to hide it......"
"Intentionally or unintentionally, it's all concealment." Zhu Yan shook his head gently, the pomelo flowers on his shoulders fell one after another, and the snowflakes generally fell on the skirt, and his tone was cold, "Please get out of the way, Zhu Yan still has something to discuss with Brother Liu." ”
Yuan Xuanqing didn't move, but instead reached out and clasped her shoulder, and smiled a little sadly, "Ah Yan, I just don't want you to be sad, it's for your good from the beginning." ”
"I only know that only my parents in this world will be really good for me, and my mother has repeatedly warned me not to get too close to my son, I guess it won't come for no reason, right?" Zhu Yan raised his eyebrows and raised his thin eyebrows, the corners of his eyes were on his two hands, "Please be respectful and let go!" ”
"She's not your mother!" Yuan Xuanqing couldn't persuade her, and he was slightly annoyed, and pulled her outside as soon as he pulled her wrist, "You come with me." ”
Zhu Yan was slightly stunned, he had been dragged by him for several steps, and when he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but become more and more annoyed, and with a backhand clasp, he raised his head and glared at him fiercely.
Yuan Xuanqing only felt a pain in his wrist, and subconsciously let go of his hand, a silver needle happened to hit the stone, "ding" sound, the anger just now subsided slightly, and couldn't help but look at Zhu Yan dumbly, she actually stabbed herself with a silver needle used in acupuncture, how much she didn't believe herself?
Zhu Yan buried his head, silently picked up the long needle, blew away the dust on it, turned his back, but did not move a step.
"Learning acupuncture?" Yuan Xuanqing sighed softly, he could see that Zhu Yan was very interested in medical skills, and knew that she would definitely not be angry anymore when she talked about this, but she obviously liked medical skills, how could she think of doing business?
"Hmm." Zhu Yan lazily responded, "I hurt my son, it's Zhu Yan who trespasses, I'm very sorry." The embroidered shoes gently stepped on the pomelo flowers piled up on the ground and walked slowly to the bottom of the porch.
"If the girl insists on engaging in business, the Bian family is a famous medicine merchant in the south of the Yangtze River." Yuan Xuanqing threw down a sentence, turned around and strode away.
Zhu Yan was both angry and aggrieved, the wrist that was dragged by Yuan Xuanqing just now was still hot, and he stretched out his hand to prick the silver needle on the Hegu acupoint hatefully, but no matter how soreness his hands were, he still couldn't sober himself up a little, and the tears still lingered along the cheeks on both sides, hanging on his chest and shining.
"Girl......" Bai Apple walked out of the stove room gently, saw that she had a silver needle tattooed in her hand, and hurriedly rushed to her, "Girl, don't be angry with yourself!" ”
Zhu Yan withdrew his hand, and the red thread trembling at the end of the needle swayed again and again, dazzling in the sun.
Bai Apple couldn't care about anything else, pulled out the needle in her hand, and couldn't help but sigh, "How can this be good?" What if I have a scar in the future?! ”
Originally, the needles used in acupuncture were very thin, and most of the acupuncture points would not bleed, but Zhu Yan was excited just now, not to mention the accuracy of the acupoints, that is, the force was planted sixty percent, and a blood spot the size of a needle's eye had flowed out of the tiger's mouth, which was particularly dazzling on her white hands.
"It's okay, just apply some comfrey oil in a while." Zhu Yan wiped off the blood stains casually, walked to the stove room and took out the acupuncture kit, and there were seven kinds of silver needles neatly arranged in the white silk package, with a round head and a pointed head, a long tail and a short tail.
Zhu Yan picked up a needle in the shape of a small sword, and casually cut two cuts in the place where she was bleeding, one horizontal and one vertical, although she had done a real blood collection between her fingers before, but this way to cut her skin still made her take a low breath.
Bai Yu was a step late, came up and grabbed Zhu Yan's wrist, and tears fell down in a flash, "Girl, why are you doing this?" The girl and the boy quarreled just now, and Bai Apple heard it...... The girl is angry in her heart, so don't take your body out of anger...... I think Yuan Gongzi is still good for the girl after all......"
"Bai Apple, I'm not trying to get angry." Zhu Yan shook his head lightly, although he was really annoyed, but he was not stupid enough to get along with himself, but the needles used in acupuncture were all detoxified with alcohol by himself, it didn't matter if Yuan Xuanqing was pierced just now, but before she pierced herself, the needles were no longer sterile, and her hands were not lightly or heavily pierced, and if she was infected with tetanus, she would really have to explain here...... Moreover, that kind of death is inevitably ugly.
"...... girl?" Bai Ping raised her head in surprise, her big tearful eyes blinked and blinked, and seeing Zhu Yan's serious expression, she didn't ask much, just stroked her wrist and felt distressed, "Such two cuts, maybe you will have to leave a scar in the future, how can this be done by a girl and a girl......
Zhu Yan shrugged his shoulders slightly, compared to dying, whether to leave a scar or not is a trivial matter, right?
"Don't worry, centella asiatica can remove scars, and there are a lot of them in the backyard."
"It really doesn't matter?" Bai Ping was a little unconvinced, although he heard that there was a secret recipe in the court to remove scars, but it was just a legend, how could Zhu Yan say it so easily.
"Really, don't worry." Zhu Yan patted her shoulder with his other hand to show comfort, "You help me bring the wine jar in front of the stove, pour a small half bowl and soak it in gauze." ”
Bai Apple guessed that she was going to clean up the wound, and without saying a word, she went to take the red pottery jar with flowers, and when she opened it, it was an extremely rich aroma of wine, "Huh...... What kind of wine is this? Wine that only tastes like alcohol? ”
Zhu Yan smiled "poof", this is the alcohol she distilled after fermenting grapes, and the filtration is quite clean, naturally only the taste of wine remains.
