Chapter 92: Awakening
"Boss, bring me some jasper cakes and jujube honey cakes."
The boss smiled and went over to bag it.
"Miao Ling, what are you buying these for?"
Min Tian looked at Qu Miaoling in disbelief as a treasure for these pastries, and then asked Xiao Er to wrap a few others.
Qu Miaoling smiled mysteriously, "I don't know!" Second brother, jasper cake and jujube honey cake, my aunt likes to eat it the most, don't you know? β
"Mother, do you like to eat these?"
He's never seen it.
"Second brother, if you observe carefully, you will find a lot of differences." In the last sentence, Qu Miaoling deliberately nodded.
But at this time, Min Tian didn't realize it at all.
"And what about the rest?" He noticed that his sister had packed something else.
"Well, it's our lunch today."
"What, lunch?" Is this destined to sleep out in the open? Even the dry food is ready, where does Miao Ling want to take herself!
Min Tian didn't understand.
Coming out of the pastry shop, the two went to a study again.
It was very quiet inside, and from time to time there were people who had been reading books in clean clothes.
He, a coarse man who only knows how to wield guns and sticks, feels that he has defiled this place.
"Second brother, don't tell me you don't know, in addition to studying, the third brother's favorite thing to read is these books." As he spoke, Qu Miaoling took out a book with demons and monsters drawn from the shelf next to him.
Min Tian was shocked.
"Third brother, read the script!"
Qu Miaoling smiled mysteriously again, "Second brother, you don't know, there are so many more!" β
The two of them went to a lot of places this morning, such as gold shops, jewelry shops, fat powder shops, all kinds of things, and the smell of fragrant powder made Min Tian's brain dizzy.
It wasn't until the two of them sat in the restaurant that Min Tian's dizzy mind became more comfortable.
He looked at his sister opposite and said, "Miao Ling, you took me around, what do you mean!" β
No matter how stupid he is, he now understands that Qu Miaoling must have done this for a reason.
"Second cousin, let's talk about your feelings first!"
Qu Miaoling wanted to sell Guanzi, but Min Tian had nothing to do, so he could only say: "I have indeed gained a lot of things from this trip with you today, and I also know my family better." β
Qu Miaoling nodded, "That's a good point." β
"That's all?"
Qu Miaoling smiled, "Second brother, you walked with me to so many shops today, do you still feel that your legs and feet are a burden to you?" β
Min Tian thought about it carefully, and along the way, it seemed that he hadn't noticed his injured leg except at the beginning.
It's as if he's still intact.
What's going on?
Min Tian looked down at his legs.
"Second brother, don't you understand now? Even if your leg really doesn't work, it won't make much of a difference to your life. β
"How can it not matter? I can't join the army, I can't practice martial arts, I can't-"
"But you can be there for your family." Qu Miaoling's words blocked Min Tian's mouth tightly.
What Qu Miaoling said seems to be really reasonable, but why does it always feel weird?
"And second brother, don't be discouraged first, Imperial Doctor Li said that he would help you find a way, he can restore your leg to sensation, and there must be a way to restore your leg to its original state."
Qu Miaoling said firmly.
Min Tian nodded.
"Alright, I'm done with what I need to say, let's eat."
"Serve." Qu Miaoling shouted in a low voice.
The crowd brought the food as if it were waiting at the door.
After accompanying Qu Miaoling for a morning, he was already hungry.
At this time, he suddenly remembered the pastries Qu Miaoling bought, "Didn't you say that we would eat pastries at noon?" β
Although he tastes and chews wax on that sweet and greasy thing, he can't waste it.
"Second brother, do you really want to eat? Well, take all these things down, we'll just eat pastries. β
"Don't, don't."
Min Tian quickly stuffed a chopstick into his mouth.
Qu Miaoling smiled.
Leaving the restaurant, Min Tian's right leg ached faintly.
Although he resisted extremely, he was still carried into the carriage by Min He.
Back at the Jingkang Hou Mansion, the servant told Qu Miao that Mrs. Ling'an had returned.
Qu Miaoling hurriedly went to the side hall and threw Min Tian off directly.
"Hey, where are you going!"
Qu Miaoling ignored him and left directly.
"Young master, let's go back too."
"Well, I'm tired too, let's go back."
said so, but he was still a little uncomfortable in his heart, Qu Miaoling's persuasion made sense, but he still beat the drum in his heart.
Can Imperial Doctor Li really cure him?
Mrs. Ann finished her meal with the handkerchief and then returned home.
On the way, she remembered the words of her friend Mrs. Jin, "Your little daughter's age has also arrived, don't you show her a wishful husband?" β
"You said Miao Ling?"
"Then who else, don't you love this little girl the most?" Mrs. Kim covered her mouth and smiled.
"That's right, this girl, life is hard, I don't take care of it more, I'm afraid I'm going to let the demons and monsters swallow it."
Mrs. Kim nodded.
"Didn't you take a good look at those school-age boys to see which one matched Miao Ling?"
Mrs. An thought to herself, Miao Ling is also old, and it is time to choose a husband well.
She has to be a little tight, if she lets the Wen clan take the lead, I'm afraid that the rest of Miaoling's life will be worried.
Thinking like this, Mrs. An returned to the mansion with a heavy heart, and as soon as she got out of the carriage, she saw Qu Miaoling walking towards her.
I didn't come here once yesterday, why did I come again today?
It's not that Mrs. An annoys her, but that Qu Miaoling has returned to the Wude Hou Mansion now, and it is not possible to run to the Jingkang Hou Mansion like this.
"Miao Ling, you don't laugh anymore, what's the matter if you keep running to Jingkang Hou's Mansion!"
Mrs. Ann said earnestly.
"Auntie, don't worry so much, I know what you're worried about, now that my second cousin is sick, I haven't come to see more, so what has become of me!"
Mrs. An couldn't say anything about Qu Miaoling, tapped her head, and scolded with a smile: "You can talk with your mouth." β
Qu Miaoling hugged Mrs. An's arm and said with a sweet smile: "Auntie, in fact, I came here today and there is one more thing. β
Someone sat down in the side hall, and Mrs. An said, "You say." β
"Yesterday, I heard that An Rutang, the eldest son of Anning Bofu, offended Prince Li and was thrown into prison?"
"What, you want to help An Rutang?"
Mrs. An knew that the old woman of Wu Dehou was from An Ningbo's mansion and was the sister of An Ningbo's father.
With such a relationship, Qu Miaoling came to her for help, and she could guess it.
But help is help, this matter, it is very difficult to do.
"Miao Ling, this matter ...... Aunt advises you not to interfere. β
Mrs. Ann said earnestly.
"Why?"
Mrs. Ann sighed.
"Do you know who Prince Li is? The emperor's younger brother today, and that Situ Huaixiang, although he is not a serious son-in-law, he is also a descendant of the prince's mansion, in front of the public, An Rutang refuted his face, and pushed him into the water, making him ugly, Situ Huai thought he could let him go? β
Mrs. An said: "Also, do I know that when An Rutang apologized to Situ Huaixiang, he was still stubborn, which directly angered Situ Huaixiang, which was an indirect slap in the face of the prince, and he was thrown into prison without dealing with him. β
Qu Miaoling continued: "Auntie, is there no room for turnaround? β
Mrs. Ann shook her head.
"It's hard."
"Auntie, please also ask for your help, help me introduce to Prince Li's Mansion, and I will take the old lady to apologize in person."
Mrs. An sighed again, "Miao Ling, it's not that I don't help you, it's really-"
Qu Miaoling shook Mrs. An's arm coquettishly, and Mrs. An finally compromised.
"Okay, I'll introduce you."
Qu Miaoling smiled.
After staying in Jingkanghou Mansion for another day, she returned home.
"Grandmother, aunt has promised to help with the introduction, and there is nothing she can do about more."
Of course, the old lady understood that the opportunity to get this introduction was already excellent, and she did not dare to ask for more.
After all, it was Prince Li, a royal prince.
Mrs. Ann made an appointment to help three days later.
That morning, before dawn, the carriage of Anningbo's mansion arrived.
Qu Miaoling packed up and saw a woman with a delicate and elegant posture.
"Grandmother, this isβ"
"Miao Ling, you come, let me introduce you, this is your cousin's daughter-in-law Li."
"I've seen the county lord." Lee's meeting is a salute.
Qu Miaoling returned the salute.
"I've seen my cousin."
"It's all my own family, so I don't need to be polite." The old lady played a round.
"We've all met, let me say in advance, we have a request for someone today, and we have to bear whatever people say."
Qu Miaoling nodded to Li.
The old lady was satisfied, and the three of them got into the carriage and walked towards Prince Li's mansion.
On the way to Prince Li's mansion, Qu Miaoling informed the two of them of the news she had inquired about from Mrs. An.
The prince has always lived in a simple place, but no one in the court dared to argue with him.
After all, when today's son succeeded to the throne, he also got his help, and later the emperor sat on the throne, and Prince Li also made great contributions.
Even after so many years, Prince Li gradually withdrew from the court, the emperor still continued to be gracious, and people did not dare to underestimate the people in Prince Li's mansion.
On that day, An Rutang was neither humble nor arrogant and argued with Situ Huai, he was at fault, but if Situ Huai didn't want to bet with others and want to come to him, he wouldn't have been knocked into the pool.
Just yesterday, Mrs. An learned that Situ Huaixiang had woken up a long time ago, but his body was still very weak.
Prince Li was furious, and as soon as An Rutang returned home, he was pressed into prison by the people sent by Dali Temple.
An Ning Bo pulled down his old face to beg, but he was closed.
As a last resort, he asked his wife to come to the door to beg the old lady.
Qu Miaoling knocked on the door and handed her name, Prince Nali didn't expect her to come, so he welcomed her in.
As a result, as soon as he saw the old lady and the Li family, Prince Li's expression immediately changed.
"County Lord, what do you mean by this, to be a lobbyist for An Ningbo's Mansion?" Prince Li twisted his eyebrows, full of majesty.
Li Shi was a little frightened and took a half step back.
Prince Li smiled disdainfully, "When did An Ningbo be so cowardly and let a woman come to the door!" β
"Lord Wang, this time Miao Ling came rashly, and I ask for forgiveness."
Prince Li flicked his sleeves, "Heh, if it's for An Rutang's business, then the county lord should please go back!" β
Prince Li's indifferent attitude, Qu Miaoling had expected it a long time ago.
"Lord Wang, I'm not here to intercede for An Rutang."
"Miao Ling!" The old lady shouted in unison with the Li family.
Qu Miaoling gave them a reassuring look.
continued: "Lord Wang, Miao Ling heard that your son had a relapse, and now the pain is unbearable, but is there such a thing? β
Prince Li's eyes narrowed, "How do you know?" β
He thought he was hiding it so well that no one knew.
"Lord Wang, Miao Ling is sure of your son's illness."
"Really?" Prince Li was so surprised that he forgot what he asked.
