Early the next morning, Zhong Xuanlan thought that Wan Sanqi was too idle, so he instructed Chun Zhi to tell Wan Sanqi to let him take care of the medicine garden, and her family did not raise idlers.

Wan Sanqi felt that Zhong Xuanlan was deliberately fixing him, so he came to Qingyou Courtyard to find Wang Xuannian, and saw Wang Xuannian and Zhong Xuanlan eating in the dining room.

said to Zhong Xuanlan that the master has something to do, and the disciple obeys it.

Under Zhong Xuanlan's cold gaze, he brought Wang Xuannian to the medicine garden.

At this time, the road in the courtyard of the medicine garden has been cleaned by the subordinates and can be passed, but the snow on both sides is thick, and it cannot be dealt with for the time being, and it will not be taken care of until the ice and snow melt next spring.

And in the backyard, there is a greenhouse with a fire kang burning, and some medicinal herbs are growing in it, which is growing verdant and becoming a winter decoration.

Wan Sanqi looked at the herbs in the field and said with a smile: "Tsk, it is worthy of the Zhong family, and the wealth is rich!" Apprentice, your daughter-in-law is really good, wait a minute, make a list for the teacher, you take it back and let her buy medicinal seeds, and teach you to grow herbs for the teacher. As he spoke, he walked carefully to the ground and stroked the ginseng seedlings, He Shou Wu, and Gastrodia......

Wang Xuannian asked, "Master, are these herbs very expensive?" ”

Wan Sanqi's eyes stared at the herbs, thinking of his apprentice's simplicity, and said, "It's not expensive now." ”

Wang Xuannian narrowed his eyes, hooked the corners of his mouth, and said, "Oh, then Master can buy it himself!" ”

Wan Sanqi turned his head to look at Wang Xuannian at the door, his eyes were clear, and he looked at him expectantly.

Staring at Wang Xuannian for a while, he didn't notice anything wrong, and said, "Apprentice, although these are not expensive, they are not something that a poor man like Master can afford." ”

Wang Xuannian said with an ignorant face: "That's very expensive?" ”

Wan Sanqi looked at Wang Xuannian's appearance, and felt that it would be a little shameful for him to deceive his apprentice again, and said: "A ginseng seedling costs ten taels of silver, He Shou Wu costs fifteen to twenty taels, and gastrodia ......."

Wang Xuannian looked at Wan Sanqi pointing to a small piece of medicinal herb seedlings, and listened to him say what kind of herb seedlings he was and how many silver taels he wanted.

Thinking of Zhong Xuanlan's words last night, she said that this medicine garden was a gift for him, whatever he did, what he lacked to find the spring solstice, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and his heart was as sweet as eating honey.

Wan Sanqi was dry and dry-mouthed, and finally finished introducing the herbs in this field.

Seeing that Wang Xuannian was in a daze, he angrily picked up the small mud lump and threw it on the door of Wang Xuannian's head.

Wang Xuannian felt the pain before he came back to his senses, and found that a lump of mud was slipping off his body, and glared at Wan Sanqi.

Wan Sanqi saw Wang Xuannian's reddened head, and his heart was a little weak, and he said loudly: "You have a dry mouth for the teacher, and you are actually distracted." ”

When Wang Xuannian heard this, he was a little unreasonable, and hurriedly went to find someone to serve tea to Wan Sanqi.

Wan Sanqi nodded slightly, very satisfied with Wang Xuannian's performance.

The master and apprentice got along happily here, and at the same time, Zhong Xuanli and Zhong Tinghao, father and son, were arguing in the study of the Qingyou Courtyard.

Zhong Xuanlan's brain throbbed and hurt, and when she saw the father and son sitting opposite her getting louder and louder, she almost started fighting.

In a cold tone, he said, "Shut up." ”

The father and son were silent for a moment, and at the same time turned their heads to look at Zhong Xuanlan, and then looked at each other before they remembered what they were doing.

Zhong Xuanlan pinched his eyebrows, and said in a bad tone: "Say it." ”

Zhong Xuanli complained: "Sister, you come to evaluate the theory, but my father promised to give me the silver, but he didn't give it." ”

Zhong Tinghao explained: "You didn't get things done. ”

Zhong Xuanlan saw that they were about to quarrel again, and said, "Dad, what did you ask Xuanli to do?" ”

Zhong Tinghao hesitated for a while and said, "That day, the Wang family was released from prison, and I thought that they were my son-in-law's family after all, so I asked Zhong Xin to take two hundred taels of silver to convey to Chun Zhi that you gave it to the Wang family." ”

Zhong Xuanlan stared at Zhong Tinghao with a displeased expression.

Zhong Tinghao swallowed his saliva, a little weak.

Zhong Xuanli said: "Later, my father was not at ease, so I asked a dart bureau to send them back." But who knew they would go missing? ”

Zhong Xuanlan looked at the father and son with a slight cold gaze, and said in a cold tone: "When did it happen, why did you say it now?" ”

Zhong Tinghao said: "The stinky boy came to me to ask for silver, and it happened that Zhong Xin came to report to the people from the Jin Family Dart Bureau at the concierge to find Xuanli, so we invited someone in, and the person told us that the Wang family disappeared at the Shunxin Inn in Qingyun County last night. ”

Zhong Xuanlan tapped on the tabletop, feeling irritable, his face was slightly angry, and he said in a cold tone: "Don't you know that our family is being watched all the time? Why do you want to come forward? Why didn't you come and tell me early in the morning? ”

Zhong Xuan said: "Sister, no matter how you say it, it's all my brother-in-law's relatives, how can I be,"

Zhong Xuanlan slapped the table and said loudly: "Enough, Zhong Xuanli, don't you know that ignoring them is the best for them?" ”

Zhong Xuanli lowered his eyes and was silent, his sister was really angry.

Zhong Tinghao shrunk his neck and asked weakly, "Then what now?" ”

Zhong Xuanlan pinched his eyebrows, looked at the father and son who were hanging their heads, their hands on the table and stirring, and their movements were exactly the same, they were angry and wanted to laugh, really, they owed them in their previous lives!

Zhong Xuanlan got up, looked at Zhong Tinghao's father and son, and said, "Tomorrow, please ask the doctor to come into the house to see a doctor for me." I'll be back tomorrow night. ”

After saying that, the man departed.

Leaving Zhong Tinghao and his son, glaring at each other.

Zhong Xuanli touched his chin and said, "Why do I think my sister is not so indifferent?" ”

Zhong Tinghao thought of the deterrent power just now, shook his head slightly, and said: "Stinky boy, you think too much, if you commit the ancestral training one day, you will definitely be kicked out of the house." ”

Zhong Xuanli said unhappily: "Dad, can you think of me to order a good one, you are very happy without a son?" ”

Zhong Tinghao took advantage of Zhong Xuanli's defenselessness, patted Zhong Xuanli on the back of the head, and said, "I have a woman who is full of everything." With that, he got up and walked out.

Zhong Xuanli pursed his lips, "hummed" twice, and hurriedly caught up with Zhong Tinghao to ask for money, anyway, he did something, as for things going wrong, he can't blame him, his sister will definitely be able to handle it.

shouted at Zhong Tinghao: "Dad, you wait for me, hurry up and bring the silver......"

Wang Xuannian met Zhong Tinghao and his son on the way back to Qingyouyuan, listened to their quarrel, and understood that his family was missing, his face suddenly turned pale, his hands and feet were cold, and he was a little overwhelmed.

Running out of the gate in a panic, the cold wind blew on his face, and the cold wind made his throat uncomfortable and his breath was not smooth. But he couldn't do that much, he just wanted to find his family at this moment.

Father and son looked at each other: You are in trouble.

Turning their heads, the father and son hurried to chase Wang Xuannian, but unfortunately they were one step too late.

When Wang Xuannian saw Zhong Xuanlan who was about to leave on horseback, he was annoyed, and rushed to the front of the horse with all his strength......
