The woman's face turned green with anger.

But Xiao Jinglin suddenly said: "I don't accept those who can't read." ”

"Gah?" Mo Xiaoliang's children forgot about their struggles when they heard this, and they were stunned on the spot.

But the child is also smart, and his eyes rolled and he said happily: "Then if I am literate, you will accept me?" ”

Xiao Jinglin thought for a while and nodded: "Hmm." ”

Mo Xiaoliang immediately broke free of her mother's hand and ran away happily, shouting: "Write, write......"

The woman looked at her son's figure and ran away in the blink of an eye, her face full of worry, and she looked at Xiao Jinglin and stopped talking.

But before she could speak, Xiao Jinglin nodded to the woman lightly and said, "Don't worry." ”

The woman breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Jinglin turned her head to Ren Yaoqi and said, "You go in first and wait for me, and I'll come when I go." ”

"Where are you going?" Ren Yaochi couldn't help frowning, the location here was remote, and she only brought apples with her. Although she was not timid, she did not want to be left alone.

"I'll just buy something nearby and come back soon, and I'll let Tongxi stay." As if knowing Ren Yaoqi's worries, Xiao Jinglin approached her and whispered, "Don't be afraid, there are people around to guard it, and you won't let idle people wait in." ”

Ren Yaoqi was relieved at this time, although she was a little strange, what did Xiao Jinglin have to buy by herself? And she thought that Xiao Jinglin didn't like to bring people with her, but she really didn't bring people, and she didn't want anyone to be in the dark.

Xiao Jinglin explained to the woman a few more times, then turned around and walked out.

The woman took Ren Yaoqi to the backyard.

Ren Yaochi realized that although the shop in front of this shop was very small, the courtyard inside was more than three times larger. Although it was just an ordinary backyard, it was planted with some flowers and plants, and Ren Yaoqi found that there was also a ground in the corner of the wall, and some herbs such as notoginseng and mountain thistle were planted.

"Is there anyone in the shopkeeper's family who understands medical skills?" Ren Yaochi asked.

The woman hurriedly said, "My husband's surname is Mo, and the young lady will call me Sister-in-law Mo." My daughter-in-law's grandfather used to run a pharmacy, so she knew some herbs. On weekdays, I also pick herbs and grow herbs in exchange for some money. ”

"I see."

"Miss recognizes herbs?" Sister-in-law Mo led Ren Yaoqi to the table placed in the northeast of the courtyard. He asked with a smile.

"I only know a few ordinary tastes, and I don't recognize them."

The young woman who was setting the dishes and chopsticks glanced up at Ren Yaoqi, with some curiosity in her eyes. Ren Yaoqi looked at her dress and age, and guessed that she should be Sister-in-law Mo's daughter-in-law.

Sister-in-law Mo instructed the young woman: "Huoxiang, you go and help me watch Xiaoliang write, if I don't open the door to do business today, there are no other guests, I can be busy myself." ”

"Yes, mother." Huoxiang set the dishes and chopsticks and lowered her head.

"Miss, sit down, I'll go to the kitchen to see if the meal is ready." Sister-in-law Mo smiled.

Ren Yaochi nodded: "You are busy." ”

Sister-in-law Mo also went down. Ren Yaochi looked at the small courtyard and got up to look at a coarse tile potted plant next to it, in which a Muzhulan was planted, which was growing very well. Muzhulan is also a plant that can be used in medicine.

Ren Yaoqi took a closer look and found that most of the flowers and plants in this courtyard could be used for medicine. In the potted plants alone, she saw caviar, banxia, gentian, phoenix, horse chestnut, parsnip, fine pungent, two-sided needle, Chuanxiong, and Nanxing.

Sensing that someone had entered the backyard, Ren Yaoqi turned his head and found that it was Dongsheng who had come in.

Dong Sheng walked to a distance of about four or five steps away from Ren Yaoqi and stopped, and saluted: "The little one has seen Miss Ren Wu." ”

Ren Yaochi looked at him with a smile. Dongsheng's appearance has not changed, his spirit is good, and his eyes are still clear and flexible.

"Why are you by the county lord's side?"

Dongsheng bowed his head and said respectfully: "The second son is also in Baihe Town, and the younger one was ordered to drive for the county lord." ”

Xiao Jingxi really came.

Ren Yaochi looked at Dong Sheng and muttered, "Do you have something to say to me?" ”

Dongsheng nodded. said: "Miss Biao, there is movement over there in the White Dragon Temple. ”

Ren Yaoqi was stunned for a moment, but then he was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Are you talking about the Xiao family's army......"

Dongsheng nodded: "There was another conflict in the former Japanese army. Dead people. I heard that the excerpt requesting Yanbei to reduce the army has been filled with the emperor's case, and in a few days, there should be a holy decree in Beijing. The Yanbei Royal Mansion will rush to break several people into pieces before the holy decree is issued. Let them disperse to some large temples in Yanbei as hired peasants. When the time comes, someone from Beijing will come, and even if he sees the clues, there is nothing he can do. ”

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but rejoice in his heart. The Xiao family's army did not enter Ningxia, and even if Zeng Tong came in the future, he would not have the strength of the previous life. His path to promotion will not be so smooth.

For Xiao Jingxi's action, Ren Yaochi also had to admire. It's easy for her to think about, but it's difficult to actually implement it. But Xiao Jingxi did it, and it only took such a short time.

Seeing the joy on Ren Yaoqi's face, Dongsheng couldn't hide it, and couldn't help but say: "This matter is done, what is the benefit of Xianwangfu?" ”

Ren Yaoqi said: "I only know that if the power of the Lu Dao Imperial Court penetrates into Yanbei, it will not be a good thing for the Xianwang Mansion." ”

Dongsheng thought for a while and nodded approvingly: "Miss is right." ”

Ren Yaoqi saw that he was still thinking about offering the palace from time to time, and sighed lightly: "Tongxi, will you blame your master for telling me?" ”

Seeing that she called his current name, Dong Sheng understood what Ren Yaoqi meant, and after thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be, I feel that the second son seems to have guessed something." When Tongde went to report this matter to him yesterday, he did not let the little one retreat, and today he specially ordered the little one to follow the county lord to Ren's house...... It feels like he knows the truth. ”

Is she the one who came up with this method?

"Miss doesn't have to worry about the little ones, the little ones know how to be measured." Dong Sheng said to Ren Yaoqi, "The second son, he treats the little one well, and since the little one has already followed him, he will naturally work hard for him." Just dedicated to the king's house...... Xianwangfu is like a small home, and the small one will not forget his origin. ”

Dong Sheng is like this, if the Xian Wangfu and the Yanbei Wangfu have been safe and sound, then it is naturally nothing, if there is a conflict of interest on that day, Dong Sheng is afraid that it will ......

However, in the previous life, the palace and the Yanbei palace were also well water and did not interfere with river water, and even when Li Tianyou secretly went to Beijing to find her, he turned a blind eye, and there should be no sudden contradictions in this life.

"By the way, have you ever heard of a family with the surname Qu? It should be the Wang clan of Yanzhou a few decades ago, but later I don't know why the family fell into the middle of the road, and most of the clansmen died. Ren Yaoqi suddenly remembered the matter of the Han family and asked hurriedly.

Since so many people have died in the Qu family, something big has happened. If this is the case, Dongsheng may know the way. Although they are not Yanbei people, they also know a lot about Yanbei people who don't know about the Dao.

Dong Sheng thought about it carefully when he heard this, but he still shook his head: "Miss, are you sure that the Qu family is a big family?" Why is the small one not impressive? It stands to reason that the wang clan in Yanbei, even if they were small decades ago, should know the Tao. ”

For this, Dongsheng is still very confident. In terms of martial arts, maybe even Yihong is better than him, but when it comes to the rules of human relations, he is the most proficient. And those famous families in Yanbei, large and small, he has all recorded genealogy.

Ren Yaochi couldn't help but be a little disappointed, couldn't even Dongsheng remember that there was a Qu family?

"Maybe it's not a prestigious family." Ren Yaoqi is uncertain.

"Maybe it was because of the rampant Liao people a few decades ago, and some people disappeared completely after they were bad, and they were not recorded. But I really can't remember it for a while, so why don't you go back and think about it? I remember that there seemed to be some local chronicles in the study of the second son that recorded the past history of Yanzhou, and the little one went back to look through it to see if he could find anything. Dongsheng couldn't help but comfort Ren Yao when he saw Ren Yaoqi's disappointment.

Ren Yaochi nodded. Generally, this kind of local chronicle will be recorded in some big and small things in the local area, if the Qu family is really from Yanbei, it should be able to find some clues.

At this time, someone went into the backyard again. Ren Yaoqi turned his eyes and couldn't help but be stunned, it was Xiao Jingxi who walked in.

Seeing Ren Yaoqi and Dongsheng talking, Xiao Jingxi was not surprised, nor did he look unhappy.

He walked slowly, glanced at Ren Yaoqi, and smiled lightly at her: "Miss Ren Wu." ”

"Second son Xiao." Ren Yaoqi hurriedly curts.

Sister-in-law Mo came up, respectfully put the tea on the table, and hurriedly bowed and retreated.

Xiao Jingxi walked in front of a pot of gentian grass, and gently held up a young leaf that had just sprouted with his right index finger and bent down to take a closer look.

Ren Yaoqi stood in front of a pot of Muzhulan not far from him, silently watching his movements.

"The Su family sent a post to the Han family, inviting the Han family to work with the Su family and several others to prepare for the dragon boat race outside Yunyang City during the Duanyang Festival next month." Xiao Jingxi turned his head to look at Ren Yaoqi with a light smile.

After Ren Yaoqi was slightly stunned, his brain turned quickly.

The annual Duanyang Festival in Yunyang City will prevent dragon boat races, but it is several leading families in Yanzhou who prepare for this race. It can be said that this is a symbol of the strength of a family. The Ren family competed for this qualification last year, but they still didn't get it.

The Su family is the organizer of the first dragon boat race, and it can be regarded as the initiator of the event, and the invitation of the Su family is very weighty.

Regardless of the real strength of the Han family, after all, the Han family has too shallow foundation and acts in a low-key manner, so it stands to reason that this kind of thing should not be found in the Han family.

So the purpose of the Su family to do this is actually not the drunkard's intention to drink?

Hanjia's Coal Mine ...... This is the reason why Ren Yaochi thought of it.

The Su family decided to make a move?

"Does Miss Ren Wu know the reason?" Xiao Jingxi looked at Ren Yaoqi and asked with a smile.

Ren Yaochi looked up at Xiao Jingxi, she always felt that there was something else in Xiao Jingxi's smile.
