87_87437Zhong Ziyuan and Cardamom finally returned to Huaishu Hutong, and Qingdai sat alone in the room with an oil lamp and a handkerchief, already eager to wear it. Finally, when the young lady returned, she immediately greeted her happily. She nagged while helping Zhong Ziyuan change her clothes: "Miss, the master also specially explained today, saying that the street is not very peaceful now, so let's go out as little as possible, why did you come back so late?" ”

With her help, Zhong Ziyuan untied the white cloth wrapped around her chest, and suddenly felt that her breathing was a lot easier. She listened to Qing Dai's complaints, and explained with a smile: "Today's patient is seriously injured, and it took a lot of time to wrap her wound. That's why I'm coming back late, sir, Madame didn't come to look for me, did she? ”

Qing Dai smiled and said quite smugly: "Miss didn't go out for dinner, how could Madame not send someone to look for it." However, I reasoned that the young lady went to the glass house, and the lady didn't say anything. "Everyone in the Zhong Mansion knows that as long as Zhong Ziyuan enters the glass house, let alone eat, he often forgets to sleep, so everyone is used to it.

Zhong Ziyuan couldn't help pinching her red cheeks, and said with a smile: "Yes, it's really clever." The young lady will reward you with a piece of candy to eat. ”

Qing Dai neatly helped Zhong Ziyuan tie the buckle of the neckline, and said with a pout: "Don't reward Miss's sugar, just ask you to go out a few times at night, don't scare me like this." ”

Cardamom brought a basin of hot water in, and just when she heard Qingdai's words, she sneered and said, "The house is full of favorites, you love Ji Po." ”

"What's wrong with me?" Qing Dai's hands kept stopping, but her mouth was retorting dissatisfiedly: "Miss is now in time, maybe the lord and Mrs. have already started to help Miss see her husband's house." It's just a matter of pretending to be a doctor to go out for a consultation during the day, if you let the future aunt know that the young lady goes out to help people see a doctor even at night, wouldn't her reputation be ruined. You don't say that you help persuade me, but you still think of me as a chicken woman. ”

Cardamom put down the copper basin in his hand, blinked his round eyes, and snickered: "Now even the old lady has not mentioned the marriage of the young lady, but you are here all day long aunt, aunt's mouth." It's not like you want to be a little son-in-law, but you use our young lady as a guise! ”

"You little hoof, and you're here to make it up, see if I don't tear your mouth apart." Qing Dai was suddenly ashamed and annoyed, and left Zhong Ziyuan to twist Cardamom's face.

Zhong Ziyuan smiled, let them mess around, and walked to the basin of hot water by herself. She took out a thin-necked crane-patterned porcelain bottle from the medicine box, opened the mouth of the bottle and poured out a pill the size of a little finger. She threw the pill into the hot water, and it melted when it was in the water. After the pills had melted, Zhong Ziyuan put away the porcelain bottle, rolled up his sleeves and began to wash.

The Zhong Mansion used to be a small rich family at best, and Zhong Jinchuan and Mrs. Zhong were also busy with the affairs of the pharmacy all day long, so they didn't set any rules. It is not so much the cautious and nagging Qingdai, and the bold and reckless, and naughty cardamom as Zhong Ziyuan's maid, but rather the little sisters who grew up with her intimate and considerate. Fortunately, although the two of them were messing around a little on weekdays, they were loyal to Zhong Ziyuan, so Mrs. Zhong did not have too many restraints.

Zhong Ziyuan washed off the potion on his face and hands, and his face regained its original white and delicate luster. She wiped the water from her face with a cotton handkerchief, and then said to Cardamom, "Is it over?" When the trouble is over, accompany me to the glass house to have a look. With that, she winked at Cardamom.

Cardamom immediately understood, and she stopped messing around with Qing Dai, tidied up her messed clothes a little, and went to pick up a papier-mâché lantern for lighting. Seeing this, Qing Dai hurriedly asked, "Madame still has food left in the kitchen, why don't you eat something and then go?" ”

Zhong Ziyuan thought for a while and said, "There's no need for food, there's no snack in the house, wrap some for me." Later, if you are hungry, you can pad your stomach. ”

Qing Dai thought for a while and said, "I still have some dim sum bought in Yipinzhai today." ”

"Those things are okay to eat and play in your spare time, but you don't have a full stomach!" Zhong Ziyuan frowned slightly, obviously not very satisfied.

Qing Dai twisted the handkerchief in her hand, and said with some twist: "I was hungry before, so I baked some rice cakes and taro, if Miss is not dirty, will I eat some?" ”

Zhong Ziyuan and Cardamom both set their eyes on the brass charcoal basin in the corner of the house. Sure enough, I saw a copper tongs on the charcoal basin, and on the tongs were placed two carp-shaped rice cakes that had been roasted and yellowed, and the sides were slightly bulging, exuding bursts of rice fragrance.

Most of the rice cakes that Zhong Ziyuan usually eats are cut into small slices, fried in oil until golden brown on both sides, and then sprinkled with sugar, or dipped in honey to eat. However, she occasionally roasted rice cakes directly on the charcoal fire with Qingdai and cardamom, and dipped them in sugar. But no matter how you eat it, this rice cake is a stuffing thing.

Zhong Ziyuan nodded and said with satisfaction: "Okay! Wrap it up for me! ”

Qing Dai immediately took out the oil paper bag, wrapped the two fat rice cake fish that had been roasted, and picked it up in the charcoal ashes with tongs, and actually picked out seven or eight roasted black small taro. She also wrapped it in oiled paper and handed it to Cardamom. He also carefully instructed: "This rice cake should be eaten while it is hot." ”

Cardamom flipped the oiled paper bag in her hand, and said with a sigh in her mouth: "It's only been a long time since you had dinner, and you're hungry to bake so many rice cakes and taro." It's no wonder that the clothes that were made a few years ago are shouting that they can't be worn. ”

"You" Qingdai's cheeks were crimson, and she was a little angry. Her chubby figure and round apple-like cheeks have always been the biggest pain in her heart. But she couldn't control her mouth, and she couldn't lose weight at all. So Cardamom's thin bamboo pole that can't eat fat has a figure, which makes her the most envious.

Seeing that the two of them were about to pinch again, Zhong Ziyuan had to come out to be a peacemaker again. She scolded Cardamom: "What do you know, Qingdai is now the time to grow your body, eat more, and your body will be solid." Even if you are fatter now, when you get married in a few years, whether it is giving birth to children or taking care of housework, you will be a hundred times stronger than those who are light and weak. ”

"Miss." Indigo has begun to grind her teeth. Zhong Ziyuan, who invisibly stabbed people again, and Cardamom, who was secretly snickering, hugged their heads in Qingdai's sad and angry eyes.

Finally got out of Qingdai's sight, and with the light on Cardamom's hand, Zhong Ziyuan walked briskly while wiping the sweat that was not shown on his forehead, and said with a wry smile: "I really don't know who else is made like me, and they actually have to show me one or two." ”

Cardamom grinned as she walked, and paid a bad note: "If you don't know how to tell Mrs. Sù to go, punish her for not eating for a day, and she will be honest as soon as she is allowed." ”

Zhong Ziyuan glanced at her and said, "It seems that you picked the matter first, why don't you also sue Mrs. Sù?" ”

Cardamom stuck out her tongue mischievously, she knew that the young lady had always loved the two of them, and often spoke harshly, but she had never sued them in front of Mrs. Zhong, so she was not afraid. But she also knew that she would accept it when she saw it, so she licked her face and said with a doggy smile: "Whoever dares to show the young lady's face, Cardamom will not spare her first." Qingdai is also the arrogant temper that Miss is used to, and she will be fine after a while, Miss doesn't have to pay attention to it. ”

Come on, it's your own fault! Zhong Ziyuan had an urge to touch his forehead. There are these two living treasure maids, and they haven't been to death yet. I don't know if I accumulated virtue in my previous life, or if I created sin in my previous life.

As they spoke, the two of them came to the backyard. Hearing that there was still silence in the firewood room, Zhong Ziyuan knew that the female thief was still in a coma. She was secretly proud in her heart, she didn't have her own unique antidote, and if she fell into this drug, she would have to sleep for at least three hours before she woke up. And even if he woke up, he was weak.

Cardamom pushed open the door of the firewood room and walked in with the lantern in his hand. The originally dark firewood room immediately brightened. Zhong Ziyuan looked down at the female thief who was still sleeping in the same posture as before, thought about it, and said to Cardamom: "It's still not okay to put her in the firewood room, it's easy to be discovered." Or move her to the glass house, where it is quiet and no one dares to go in. ”

Although Cardamom loves to fight with Qingdai, she obeys Zhong Ziyuan's words. She immediately sorted out a hidden open space in the glass house, and then helped Zhong Ziyuan to carry the female thief over.

After all the qi qi was settled, she couldn't help the curiosity in her heart, and asked out loud: "Miss, is the injured woman they were looking for earlier?"

"Look, it should not be far from ten." Zhong Ziyuan was also very helpless, the female thief in front of her had now become a hot potato, and it was not right to push it out or stay at home. However, she still instructed: "I heard my father say before that the soldiers and horses of the five cities gave a death order, saying that they were harboring her, and they will all be regarded as accomplices." So you have to be careful when you take care of her so that no one else will find out about her. It's best not to even talk about Qingdai, she is careful and cranky, so don't add unnecessary troubles to her. ”

Cardamom immediately patted her chest and reassured: "Don't worry, Miss, I know how to measure, Qingdai doesn't dare to enter this house anyway." Then she smiled and said, "Fortunately, I grabbed Yun'er's medicine first, if I catch her medicine first, it will be terrible." ”

Zhong Ziyuan also said with palpitations: "Yes! What a blessing. ”

While the two were talking, the female thief finally slowly opened her eyes. She first looked around, and saw that the flower shelves around her were full of large and small flower pots, although it was the middle of winter, but the flower pots were full of green.

There was a "squeak" in her ears, and she followed the voice, but she felt a tingling in her heart. I vaguely saw an iron cage in the corner of the wall, and there were countless black-poofed rats in it. Although these rats are not big, they keep running around in the cage, countless pairs of small mung bean-like eyes, emitting a faint cold glow in the dark.

No matter how high her martial arts are, as long as she is a girl, she will naturally feel disgusted and afraid of this animal. She instinctively wanted to hide, but found that her whole body was not only extremely sore, but also tightly wrapped in gauze. Especially in his back, there was a heart-rending pain in his back, and he couldn't move at all. She couldn't help frowning and let out a low cry of pain.

"Miss, she's awake." A childish voice sounded in her ears, and a lantern was raised in front of her eyes. At the same time, two girls' faces appeared in front of her.

The older one should be the young lady, and she still has a smile on the corner of her mouth, and she looks harmless to humans and animals. The other blinked with round eyes, the younger one should be the maid. She still had horns on her head that didn't distinguish between men and women, and her eyes were full of curiosity.

I don't know why, although this female thief can't move at the moment, she doesn't feel panicked in her heart. Maybe she saw that the other party was also a woman, so she was not very worried about her current situation.

Seeing that young lady-looking person looking at him condescendingly, he lightly opened his red lips and asked, "What's your name?" ”

The female thief's eyes flashed and she said, "Peilan, my name is Peilan." ”

Zhong Ziyuan quietly glanced at a pot of Peilan not far from her, and knew that she was not telling the truth. But she didn't poke it, just smiled and said, "Peilan, do you know that the officials and officials all over the street now, as well as the men and horses of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, are looking for you?" ”

Pei Lan's pupils couldn't help shrinking, and Zhong Ziyuan immediately knew that his guess was really not wrong. She continued quietly: "But since you followed my carriage into my yard, I have no reason to push you out to die, so I put medicine on you and stitched up your wounds. However, the wound on your back is so big that even if you get stitched up, it will leave a scar in the future. ”

Who knew that Pei Lan didn't care if he would leave a scar, but asked in surprise: "You can heal the wounds, are you a medicine girl?" ”

There were not many women who knew how to heal in this dynasty, and almost all of them were in the royal family and large families to serve those ladies and ladies, as well as the concubines and concubines. There are very few people, occasionally there are one or two, and most of them specialize in gynecology.

Zhong Ziyuan neither admits nor denies. She continued: "Don't worry, since I have already helped you with your wounds, I will help you to the end, and I will definitely not give up halfway." But I also hope that you can cooperate, and during this time of your treatment, stay in this glass house and don't go out. lest it be seen by outsiders, report to the yamen or the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and you and I will not be able to finish eating and go around. ”

"And how long will it take for my injuries to heal?" Perrin had a hint of anxiety on his face.

Zhong Ziyuan estimated it and said, "It's about more than a month." ”

"What? So long. Perrin exclaimed, "Not for that long, I still have to find someone!" Three days, three days? ”

Zhong Ziyuan sneered and said, "I'm not an immortal, and I don't have a panacea, so three days will definitely not work." If you're really in a hurry, I won't keep you, you can go now. As long as you can avoid the officers and soldiers that fill the streets. ”

Perrin was staring with Venus in front of him at the moment, and his head was also drowsy because of excessive blood loss. She knew that if she went out recklessly, she would never be able to get good fruit to eat. After hesitating for a moment, no matter how anxious she was, she had to bow her head to the status quo. So she whispered, "Then listen to the young lady's arrangement." ”

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you." After reaching an agreement, Zhong Ziyuan also breathed a sigh of relief, and she instructed Cardamom: "You feed her some food first." ”

Cardamom immediately took out rice cakes and taro, broke them into small pieces and fed them to Peilan's mouth. Despite the severe pain all over her body, Perrin was dizzy and had no appetite at all. However, in order to recover as soon as possible, she still tried very hard to swallow the food in her mouth.

Zhong Ziyuan looked at her quietly on the side, always feeling that her deep phoenix eyes seemed to have seen somewhere, but she couldn't remember it for a while
