Great tonic
Bai Rui saw that the naΓ―ve and ignorant Chu Tao didn't seem to be pretending, so she had to explain: "This, you can also use it as a tonic!" Well! Big supplement! It's to make your sons less cold...... Get a little enthusiastic! Got it! After saying that, he blinked.
Chu Tao seems to understand whether he understands or not, this medicine can make him temper a little better! It turns out that there are still such good things in the world, if Xue Congjia really doesn't care so cold to himself after eating it, then maybe he can like himself!
Chu Tao's eyes were shining, and she was very happy: "Sister Bai, why is it just like this, is there anything else!" Grab a few bottles and decorate them! β
Bai Rui laughed until her stomach hurt: "My good sister, although this medicine is good, it can't be used often." That's all I have, my sister doesn't need it. β
Chu Tao nodded, it seems that Master Pei is not cold to Bai Rui at all.
But she was still uneasy and said, "What's the harm of this medicine?" "She hated to drink the water boiled from the root of the bellflower, and she had a stomach ache for three days.
Bai Rui smiled maliciously: "Oh, this is a tonic, there is no harm, or there is a harm...... Maybe my sister is going to suffer a little. β
Chu Tao didn't understand, it didn't hurt, and she didn't ask again.
After Chu Tao and Bai Rui said goodbye, they jumped back to their residence. Shopkeeper Fang and Zhao Tieniu both decided to follow the Three Kings, and Xue Congjia, Shi Li and the others also returned on the same day like themselves.
When it was time to leave, he couldn't sleep, and Chu Tao rolled up from the bed again, wearing a thick cloak and coming out to look at the stars. The climate in the north is already dry, and the winter is dominated by snowfall, but tonight it drizzled, and the ground was silent, and the wind blew the windows slightly, seeping in the cold moisture. There are a few tall plum blossoms in front of the window, and many buds have emerged from one bone to another, and the faint fragrance of flowers is sandwiched in the rain, which is clear and cold.
The plum blossoms are blooming, and it seems that this difficult winter is almost over.
Chu Tao smelled very comfortable, and didn't close the window, and said to Xiaohong: "I haven't seen the stars here in Xinyang for so many days, and now I'm leaving, but I can't see it when it's raining." β
Xiaohong pursed her lips and smiled: "Probably Xinyang is reluctant to miss, so let's send Miss off in the rain!" β
Chu Tao suddenly remembered the medicine that Bai Rui gave her today, she couldn't wait to try the effect of the medicine, since this medicine is a big tonic, it will definitely not cause any harm to Xue Congjia, but Chu Tao felt that Xue Congjia would definitely refuse her good intentions, so she asked Xiaohong: "Did you make lotus seed white fungus soup in the afternoon?" Is there anything left? β
"Yes, does Miss want to drink? There's quite a bit left, so I'm going to warm it up now if I want to drink it. Xiaohong said.
"Then you go and heat it up, and then serve a bowl to Xue Congjia." Hatsu Tao said.
Xiaohong was baffled by Chu Tao: "Does the young lady want to tell something?" β
Chu Tao thought for a while and said, "You tell him, this is a thank you gift from me." Tell him not to thank him. "Anyway, Chu Tao has already forced Xue Congjia to accept his own gift, isn't that purse just stuffed into him by himself! It's okay to stuff another bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup!
Chu Tao took out a packet of powder, followed Bai Rui's suggestion, and only added a nail cover to it, seeing Xiaohong's puzzled gaze, she explained seriously, this helps people maintain a happy mood and makes people become enthusiastic. Then Xiaohong took the lotus seed white fungus soup with the first peach and the medicine to Xue Congjia.
"How's it going, did he drink?" Hatsu Tao asked.
Xiaohong said: "You only ordered me to send it, and you didn't tell me to watch him drink, and I don't know if he drank it or not!" β
Chu Tao sighed and said, "Forget it, no matter if he likes to drink or not, I'm kind enough to help him." I'm sleeping! β
On the return trip the next day, everyone got up early in the morning, and even Chu Tao didn't dare to slack off, for fear that he would drag everyone back.
Mo Qi, who was full of muscles, came over and personally helped Xiaohong and Xiaozi carry the salute into the carriage, because they were afraid that something would happen on the road, a team of people and horses chose to leave with great fanfare, for fear that others would not know who they were. In this way, those who want to harm the three kings have no way for the time being.
Chu Tao leaned on the car and was about to fall asleep, when he heard Xiaohong shouting to himself in a trance, and when he opened his eyes, he found that the carriage had stopped, and everyone wanted to have lunch, so he stopped by a lake to rest for a while, and he could also decorate some water for replenishment.
Xiaohong said: "Let's be out of the city for a long time, there are no inns around here, so we can only eat some dry food to cushion our stomachs." As he spoke, he brought a steamed bun, some air-dried rabbit meat and milk, and fruits such as oranges and apples.
Chu Tao took the milk, the temperature was too low along the way, the milk was all covered with ice ballast, touching a little awkward, braving a chill, afraid that the ice milk would drink it and make a stomach, Chu Tao didn't drink the milk, and ate two big steamed buns with rabbit meat, she grinned: "This kind of rabbit meat is really delicious, spicy and fragrant, I can eat a big bag in one go." β
Xiaozi said: "I knew that Miss liked it so much, so we would have bought more and brought it on the road." They should have a fire outside, so let's get the milk and warm it up. β
Chu Tao readily agreed, the bumps along the way made her bones fall apart, and it was good to loosen her muscles and bones. As soon as she got out of the carriage, she saw Shi Li waving to her. Hatsu Taole ran over happily.
"Sister Peach, walk slowly, what should I do if so many stones fall on the road." Shi Li said softly, pointing to a fish roasted on the fire, at first sight, what a fat fish! The skin is roasted to a crispy golden brown and is still bubbling with oil, making it mouth-watering to look at.
Shi Li pulled out a whole fish bone in the middle, took half of the fish to Chu Tao, and said, "There is still fish soup on the pot over there, I was just about to ask you to come out to eat fish, and you came over by yourself." β
Although Chu Tao had just eaten two big steamed buns, she was not full at all, she rubbed her hands happily and took the fish, thanked her, and looked ahead, there was a pot over there, steaming hot, and sitting around were Sanwang, Mo Qi and Xue Congjia. The three kings drank the hot fish soup, and while holding a branch on the ground to draw the route they were about to walk, they discussed with Xue Congjia and the others, nodding from time to time.
Chu Tao looked at Xue Congjia for a long time, and silently lowered his head and took a bite of the fish.
Zhao Tieniu suddenly held his throat like a woman and said, "Brother Shi, people also want fish, and people want to eat fish!" β
Chu Tao picked up the string of fish bones that had been picked out and was about to stab Zhao Tieniu: "I'll stab you to death this yin and yang pervert!" If you want to eat fish, you won't take it yourself! β
Shi Li was amused by these two living treasures and laughed, and after a while, he calmed down and said seriously: "What about eating fish, making trouble like this, be careful of getting stuck in your throat." β
Before Shi Li finished speaking, Chu Tao was stuck by a thorn, covering his throat and wailing, coughing for a long time and his face was red, Xiaohong and Xiaozi hurriedly took out steamed buns and gave them to Chu Tao, everyone patted Chu Tao's back and handed water, and they were busy for a while, but fortunately, the fish bones were not big, and Chu Tao finally swallowed the thorn after such a toss.
Chu Tao and the others here were so lively that they summoned the three kings to ask what was going on, and over there Xue Congjia sat alone in front of the pot, sitting alone like a stump, suspicious of disdain and being in the company of everyone.
Chu Tao, who had recovered from it, patted her chest to show that she was still tenacious, and she asked, "Where did this fish come from?" β
Zhao Tieniu invited merit and said: "There is a small lake not far ahead, first sweep the snow on the ice, and then dig a hole with a hammer, and there will be fish in a while." I used to catch fish like this when I was a kid. β
Chu Tao picked up another fish that was almost cooked, and said to Xiaohong, "Oh, take this one to the other over there." The fish soup is delicious, but the grilled fish also has a different flavor. β
Xiaohong obediently sent the grilled fish over.
Zhao Tieniu lowered his voice after making sure that Xue Congjia didn't look at him: "Sister Peach, that's not quite right. β
"Huh?" Hatsu Momo made a muffled sound as she ate the fish.
Zhao Tieniu said: "I live very close to him, just last night, he suddenly asked the maid for a large basin of cold water. β
Chu Tao realized that Zhao Tieniu was talking about Xue Congjia, so he asked, "What's so strange about asking for a basin of cold water." β
"He's a guy who doesn't talk much, and the maid in his house is just like a vase, and he never takes the initiative to talk to others. How can a person who doesn't even bother to say anything ask for a basin of water. Zhao Tieniu said.
"Then how do you know he asked for a basin of cold water?" The first peach is obviously short.
Zhao Tieniu scratched his head: "The maid in his house told the maid in my house, so I only knew." "Zhao Tieniu's family can't afford to use maids, or after following the three kings, there are only people to serve, he is very unaccustomed to being served, he feels that he is equal to these maidservants, and he gets along very well with all the maidservants.
Shi Li finally grasped the key point from the conversation between the two people: "Brother Tie Niu means that it's strange to have a basin of cold water on such a cold day, isn't it?" β
Zhao Tieniu cast a grateful gaze and nodded again and again, yes, yes, that's what he meant, what do you want to do with cold water on a cold day.
Only Chu Tao didn't think it was strange, she thought it might be that her hand had touched the chili pepper, and she wanted to chill the water to relieve the spiciness, what was so strange. Besides, Xue Congjia has his own logic in everything he does, and everything he does is right.
Xiaohong brought the grilled fish back and left it as it was. Chu Tao wondered: "Why don't you eat it, doesn't this fish smell good?" β
Xiaohong said: "He also said...... Tell Miss that you don't send him anything in the future......"
Chu Tao was wronged, and kindly sent him fish, and he was so fierce. Chu Tao said, "Then you go to him and serve me a bowl of fish soup." β
As soon as Xiaohong passed, Xue Congjia got up and left, obviously not wanting to entangle too much with the master and servant of Chu Tao. Chu Tao looked at it from a distance, and her heart was very uncomfortable, she suddenly remembered the packet of medicine that Bai Rui gave her, it didn't work at all! It's still so cold.
Zhao Tieniu interrupted and said: "Okay, okay, don't pay attention to him, his person is like that, don't touch the mold." β
But the kraft candy Jiang Chutao has such a thick skin, will he be scared away by this little obstacle? No, the more frustrated she became, the more courageous she became. Jiang Chutao, who had rekindled his fighting spirit, blocked in front of Xue Congjia, and opened his mouth to ask, "Why don't you eat grilled fish." β
I don't know why Chu Tao saw a trace of anger in Xue Congjia's eyes. Xue Congjia said coldly: "Get out of the way, don't get in my way." β
