8. The beauties of the country are in a dilemma
The heartbroken Jiarou has more in her heart than Meiyu. After all, she has a marriage contract. This paper marriage contract can't lock the heart, but it can lock people. This is the inevitability of all women to retreat: as long as they can get married, they can see him every day, and that's it.
Shen Yishi looked at his daughter's unpromising appearance, and he was helpless. She was even glad that she had finally passed that age and could get rid of the pain of her children's private affairs. In the early years, the husband also had a good friend, Shen Yishi did not eat or drink for five days, and took off his appearance. Just when she was about to die or live, the good friend died of a cold and a cold. Shen Yishi pitied herself, and even more pity the woman, her heart died with that woman. Since then, no matter how her husband is in the wind and snow, she is not distracted.
Therefore, in Shen Yi's eyes, her daughter's bitterness is just a passing cloud, and she will get through it sooner or later, but her son's matter is big, and it is not only the future, but also his life.
Shen Yishi said to Shen Zongfu, who had just returned from the camp inspection: "Will the children be picked up or will they stay in the mountains?" ”
"Why bother to bring it back? It's all in the past, and it's okay now. Shen Zongfu was puzzled.
"Hey, I don't think it's better to get around with foreigners."
"So, when the third master comes, discuss it with him. He was also in the hospital from time to time to listen to what he had to say. ”
"You'd better go into the city to find him, and don't recruit him to the house." Shen Yishi complained about how the husband was the third master in advance. She briefly said a few words about Jiarou, saying that she didn't want the third master to come to cause Jiarou to hurt again.
Shen Zongfu is not good at the short things in the family. He only thinks that it is a good thing that his daughter can marry into the Lin family, and it is also a good thing that his son can change careers to do traditional Chinese medicine. Just as he didn't know how to answer, the housekeeper Zhu Yihe stood on the threshold and reported: "The third master is here." ”
The third master understands that since his whereabouts can be discovered by Jia Luo, he can also be discovered by others. He remembered what Gonggong Li said: "The head of the dragon should be in Baiwang Mountain." He wanted to ask Gonggong Li if it was in Baiwang Mountain. The third master waited at the northeast gate of the Old Summer Palace for three days, and on the fourth day, Gonggong Li was dressed as a farmer again, and approached the third master to speak.
"The hospital is full of people, and I almost got exposed." The third master said, thinking in his heart that he had been exposed. Fortunately, the man was Gallo, so he didn't get out of the way.
"Found what?" Gonggong Li asked.
"There is no secret place in the hospital, only the morgue, and if it is, it can only be there. But Grandpa Li, are you sure that thing is in the medical hall? ”
"It should be." Gonggong Li sighed.
After waiting for a while, the third master said, "Then I'll go to Dongjiaomin Lane to inquire." I have some dealings with them. ”
"It's big or small, don't make any mistakes."
"Well, I'll be careful." The third master said.
What the third master said about his dealings with Dongjiaomin Lane is somewhat, and they are all dealings on the floating head. If you really want to inquire about something, you have to help the fat deputy of Xizhimen Church.
"Brother, do me a favor." The third master carried the Quanjude roast duck and found the fat deputy.
The fat deputy took the duck with a smile and said, "I'll go and ask Mr. Jin to eat the duck together." ”
"I said please do me a favor, brother." The third master stopped the fat deputy from going way.
"Oh, yes, you say it." The fat deputy stared at the duck in his hand.
"Last time, the minister from Dongjiaomin Lane, we had a meal together later."
"yes, you say, what's wrong?"
"I'll have to treat him again, them, to dinner." The third master said.
"Huh?"
The third master took a breath, he hesitated to tell the fat deputy about this, it was a little unbearable to fight such a big thing by himself. The fat deputy and Mr. Jin are people who are looked down upon by Dongjiaomin Lane, and the fat deputy is very down-to-earth, he should be able to give the bottom.
"I'm looking for something." The third master said tentatively.
"What? Are you going to Dongjiaomin Lane to find something? ”
"Brother, I want to inquire where they put the dragon head in the Old Summer Palace." The third master said in a deep voice.
"Dragonhead? That's their big baby! They won't tell you. ”
"So you've got to help me." The third master said.
"What do you want to do with that?"
The third master thought for a while and said, "Sell for money!" ”
The fat deputy glanced at him and snorted, "Don't believe me." ”
"You know it's not good. Just when I was selling money. ”
"I'll make an appointment." The fat deputy then said.
"Please!" The third master pointed to the duck.
Soon, the fat lieutenant arranged several feasts with his better Italian minister. In the staggered time, the third master heard a lot of words, all of which were translated by the fat deputy:
"In the hands of the French."
"In the hands of the Frenchman de Samare."
"When Deshi returned to France a few years ago, he did not take it away on the same ship, but stayed somewhere in the capital."
"In the near future, they will be taken out of the country by those with minor status, and they will be hidden from people."
"It should be in Baiwang Mountain."
"It's in Baiwang Mountain!"
There are always a few words that are true.
Since the dragon head is in Baiwang Mountain, then find a way to find it and steal it again. However, in this way, how should Pasteur explain to Dongjiaomin Lane? If you want to put Pasteur's life on the line, you have to think of other ways.
This rut, after thinking about it, still falls back to Jiarou. Originally, the third master wanted to take Meiyu back to Dahoucang first, and then marry Jiarou, and then wait for Meiyu to become pregnant, and give her the title of concubine. The third master knew that he would explain like this, but Meiyu naturally refused. But if it weren't for this, this beautiful girl who was as beautiful as a fairy and whose origin was unknown would not have been able to enter their Materia Medica Hall at all.
Since Meiyu refused to go with him several times, coupled with the errand of the dragon head in front of him, the third master found enough reasons for himself to greet Jiarou directly.
After thinking about it for a few days, the third master came to Tongzhou to pay a visit.
"Let Jiarou be in the backyard, don't tell her that the third master is here." Shen Yishi instructed the old mother beside him, and then looked outward with a smile on his face and watched the third master walk in.
Shen Zongfu scratched his head and got up to greet him, the third master walked in with a large bag and a small bag in both hands, and the people hurriedly stepped forward to help.
"It's winter, a little tonic; Sister-in-law, this is the West Lake lotus root flour for you. ”
"Oh, third master, let you remember." Shen Zongfu took out the road of officialdom, "I just said that I will go to the city to send you a new foal, and the blood is pure." ”
The two greeted each other politely and went to the dinner table, and Shen Yishi sat beside him. After chatting a few words about their respective errands and business, the third master brought the conversation to the topic.
"Sister-in-law, the medicinal herb library has to cultivate new products, and we must find a high ground to cultivate herbs. I inquired about a few hills, but none of them were suitable. The height, temperature, and humidity of Baiwang Mountain are just right, and I heard that the surname of the owner of that land is Yi, called Yi Hangcai, a person from Hangzhou. I wonder if you know such a fellow countryman? If I can recommend it, I would like to buy it at double the price. ”
The third master saw Shen Zongfu for a moment, and said in his heart that eight or nine would not leave ten.
Shen Yishi is not as good as her husband, she is sensitive and suspicious, and she reacts quickly, she immediately understood that the third master was prepared, and asked knowingly.
Shen Yishi ordered the servants to retreat, then leaned back in the chair and said, "What is the third master looking for her?" ”
"I want to take that piece of land." The third master said.
Shen Yishi stood up and said, "Then you really have found the right person." ”
The third master pretended to be surprised and asked, "Oh? ”
Shen Yi's heart was already overturned, cursing the third master's pretense. She got up from the chair, sat down again, and then said with a anger that she couldn't hide at all: "It seems that I am Yi Hangcai." ”
The table was already tense, and Shen Zongfu was most afraid of a fight involving women, so he didn't raise his head and sent a chopstick to his mouth with a chopstick.
Shen Yishi rolled her eyes when she saw that her husband didn't help, and when the third master didn't speak again, she turned seventy or eighty turns in her mind, and then said in a weird way: "Third master, the top of Baiwang Mountain is the last piece of property of our Yi family in Beijing." However, you have helped our Shen family a lot, and I should give it up. Shen Yishi took a breath, and was about to say the next sentence, when the sound of guqin music came from the backyard:
"There are vines and grass in the wild, and there is no dew. There is a beautiful person, clear and graceful. Encounters and encounters are suitable for my wishes.
There are vines and grasses in the wild, and there is no dew. There is a beautiful person, as graceful as Qingyang. Encounter and meet, and meet with the son. ”
This is Jiarou's singing, she didn't know that the third master was visiting, she just sang about her bitterness and death with wishful thinking.
"Listen, my daughter, she's really about to break off the red dust." Shen Yishi said as he picked up a handkerchief to wipe away his tears. "It's really killing our children."
The advantage of a woman is that she can turn her face at any time, say a cruel word, cry again, and then continue to treat each other politely when nothing happened.
Shen Zongfu still continued to bury his head in eating, he heard his wife mention the love between children and daughters, and he didn't dare to raise his head.
The third master put down his chopsticks, "Sister-in-law, this is the matter." Halfway through the words, the third master raised his glass and saluted the Shen couple. Shen Yishi poked Shen Zongfu who was eating with his head bowed with his elbow. Only then did Shen Zongfu raise his head, quickly grabbed the wine glass, and took a sip as he raised his head.
"Drink wine, drink wine, eat vegetables, eat vegetables." Shen Zongfu played a round. "The third master has been drinking a lot lately." Shen Zongfu laughed.
"See what you are good at." The third master also followed suit.
The third master wanted to follow Shen Yi's words, set the wedding date with Jiarou, and asked the Shen family to take the top of the mountain as a dowry. But if you really say that, then this transaction is too much like a transaction, although this may be a transaction, but the third master really doesn't want to admit it.
Finally finished the meal, politely sent the third master away, Shen Zongfu said to his wife: "I said that you can't keep the top of the mountain, what kind of feng shui treasure is that, how many people are worried about it." ”
"You know! Annoying or not annoying. Shen Yishi said angrily.
"I'm here to prepare you." Shen Zongfu took a sip of tea.
"Oh, I know, it's definitely about children. It's up to you to say that. Jiarou and Jialuo, they have to count on the third master of Lin in the future. Yi shook his hand back to the backyard.
The third master didn't drink much, which was slightly drunk, but it stands to reason that he shouldn't ride a horse again. But he still wanted to meet Meiyu, and at the moment when he almost blurted out that he was going to set a wedding date with Jiarou, he missed this Meiyu so much. Besides, the rouge that promised Miss Meiyu has been delayed for a long time.
At this time, the third master was more affectionate than ever, he cheered up, greeted the sunset in the west, and rode his horse to Baiwang Mountain.
By the time we arrived at Baiwang Mountain, it was already dark. The third master looked for the light of the medical hall and walked into the hall quickly. In the hall, Bo was walking out, and they took a look. The third master ignored the greetings, only nodded, and went inside.
Uncle Jia knew that the third master was looking for Meiyu again, he looked at the back of the third master in a hurry, took a deep breath, his chest hurt a little when he inhaled, and then walked out of the hospital quickly, with a sad face.
"Meiyu," the third master called to open the door.
Meiyu was glad that the third master called back her name again, she opened the door with a smile, and without waiting for the third master to pounce, she fell into the third master's arms.
The third master took two steps inside with her in his arms and closed the door. He hugged her tightly and said in a low voice, "It may be a while before I can come to the hospital." ”
"What?" Miyu, who had just fallen into happiness, had to stand up on her own in embarrassment. She looked up at the third master from bottom to top, and asked vigorously.
The third master looked down at her, he didn't want to answer anything, he just kissed it frantically. He was rude like he had never been, and pressed Meiyu the bed. Meiyu was hurt a lot by the third master, but she couldn't bear to interrupt her lover, she doted on the third master, as long as the third master liked it, she could hurt as much as she wanted.
This is indeed a pair of beautiful people, talented men and women, impeccable. They also have no reservations about each other and love each other deeply.
The third master finally collapsed softly on Meiyu's body, he wrapped his arms around Meiyu's back, sighed deeply, and then supported his arms, raised his body, and looked at Meiyu lying under him. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't open his mouth, just looked at her solemnly.
Meiyu read everything about the third master, she stroked his face, yes, Meiyu likes to touch his face the most, his nose, mouth, eyebrows, eyes, ears. Then, choked up, even though there were a thousand words, only one sentence: "Don't leave me." ”
"Don't leave, don't leave, don't leave." The third master repeated this sentence not to leave, and said important words three times, and it has been since ancient times.
"Third master, do you like me?" Miyu asked.
"Like. I want to marry you and stay with you for the rest of my life. But, hey! The third master stumbled.
The third master lay to the side, looking at the ceiling, in a daze.
Meiyu got dressed and got up to pour lemonade for the third master. The lemons were brought from France by the Basertor and are very valuable. Only when Sanya comes, Meiyu will take it out and soak it in water to drink.
Meiyu knows very well that she came from a poor family in Yangjiaping, Zhangjiakou, and was sent to Xishiku Nursery Hall by her brother and sister-in-law since she was a child, and she has never returned home. Although it is considered a decent errand to be a nurse in the Baiwangshan Medical Center now, it is far more than 108,000 miles away from the Materia Medica Hall with a large fence.
"Third master, you can go if you have anything, the master's business is the right thing, don't worry about me." Meiyu spoke in a pure Xishikujing accent and no longer choked. She wants to be sensible and wants the third master to love herself more.
The name Meiyu was given by the director of the Nursery Hall. When the dean saw that the child was handsome, intelligent, docile and well-behaved, like a Chinese "jade", she called her by this name. Now, she is sixteen years old, one year older than Jiarou in Tongzhou Daying.
"How can you not worry." The third master stood up and walked towards Meiyu, his toned chest, Meiyu saw it in her eyes and hurt in her heart.
"Your family has a big business, I have long understood." Meiyu brought the lemonade to the third master.
"It's me who is not good." The third master hugged Meiyu, took the water, and pressed her head against her head.
"Isn't it that if I make a fuss and shake my face, you feel better?" Meiyu asked with a smile, and she couldn't help but reach out to touch the third master's cheek.
The third master held Meiyu's hand, put it to his mouth and kissed it lightly, and asked again, "Do you really want to go with me?" ”
Meiyu didn't want to ask the third master how to place herself, so she only said, "I'll go and make you a personal girl?" Can't you marry a concubine before you have a wife? When Mrs. Future comes in the door, where will I go? If he had a child, he would not be able to raise his head for the rest of his life. When the words fell, Meiyu knew that she was wrong.
The mother of the third master is such a woman with no name, she became pregnant with the third master. Not to mention how much the woman suffered, the third master himself did experience an indescribable childhood.
The third master was flustered by these words, and he suddenly felt that he was going to lose his beautiful jade.
"I'm afraid of that kid." The third master said.
Meiyu covered the third master's mouth with her hand: "Why don't you still believe me?!" No one can take me away. ”
"That?" The third master wanted to ask, so what would she do in the future.
"I will guard the hospital and take care of the sick for the rest of my life. If you can always remember me, come and see it often. Meiyu burst into tears again.
The third master finally calmed down, he thought, Meiyu is still young, and sooner or later it will change. She doesn't agree today, but tomorrow she might figure it out. Besides, his weight in the Lin family is getting heavier and heavier, and in a few years, everything will be solved.
"Nurse, nurse." A patient's family member walked outside the nurses' station to summon him.
"I'll take a look. You rest first. Hurry up and put on your clothes so that you don't catch a cold. Meiyu instructed the third master.
"You take that sentence back." The third master pulled her and refused to let her go.
"Which one?"
You say, "We're two fish in a pond, so we shouldn't have met." You say such cruel things, it's hard for me. ”
Meiyu took a deep breath, stroked the third master's cheek, and said, "We are a koi from a pond. ”
The third master laughed, quickly kissed Meiyu's red lips, and then let her go out to see the patient.
After Meiyu left, the third master put on his clothes, took out the box of rouge, put it on the table in the lounge, saw Meiyu's comb aside, picked it up and looked at it, and put it in his arms. The third master comforted himself, there will definitely be a way out, do the things in front of him first, since Meiyu is so fond of herself, then wronged her for a while, and then take her home in the future.
The third master rested in the hospital for a few days, preparing to go to Tongzhou to do the thing he had to grit his teeth to do. He didn't dare to say hello to Meiyu, so he took a few looks from a distance outside the medical hall and rode away. Meiyu was at the window of the consultation room, watching the third master leave, and remembered that sentence in her heart: "Some days I can't come to the hospital." Meiyu knew that the third master was going back to marry, this was the third master's happy event, she suddenly thought, or she would follow the third master, regardless of whether it was a concubine or a girl.
This is the happy event of the third master, and it is also the happy event of the Tongzhou camp, they finally waited for the third master to visit again.
The third master took out a beautiful bag and said to Shen Yishi: "I asked the Italian diplomat to bring a pocket watch to Miss Jiarou." ”
"His third uncle, what do you mean?" Shen Yishi didn't want to guess what the third master meant, so he simply asked directly.
The third master bowed and said. "Sister-in-law, pick a good day and let my eldest brother come to give you a bride price."
Shen Yishi looked at the third master, she had been sentenced for many years, and she finally looked forward to it, but she couldn't lift her spirits. Shen Zongfu invited the third master to take a seat and let the subordinates pour tea. Shen Yishi stayed with him for a while, then said goodbye and returned to the backyard.
Instead of daring to see her daughter, she went back to her room, closed the door, and pondered what was going on. The third master asked about the land on the top of the mountain, and suddenly came to propose marriage, what is the connection? She really wondered why she would follow Jiarou's marriage for the sake of a piece of land to cultivate new products.
Shen Yishi thought about it for a while, and felt that he couldn't let Jiarou know about the proposal, if he didn't put it in jail, and then changed it in a few days, it wouldn't cost his daughter's life; Another thought, the ancestors said, if you can't see clearly, just go for a walk and see, then it is better to go to Baiwang Mountain tomorrow to see the children, but also to see Baiwang Mountain, and strive to be able to crack these strangeness.
That night, the third master stayed in the guest room for the night.
The yard is not big, Jiarou knew that the third master was coming, and she didn't dare to come to the front yard, and no one dared to tell her that the third master had proposed marriage.
Shen Zongfu and Shen Yishi couldn't swallow and couldn't sleep.
In short, this night, the front and back yards of Tongzhou Daying were very awkward.
Early in the morning the next day, the third master and Shen Yishi were preparing carriages and horses outside the door at the same time, and the third master learned that she was going to Baiwang Mountain, and sighed in his heart: "If Pasteur didn't mean to mention the land on the top of the mountain to Mrs. Shen, wouldn't it be all in vain for them to trade directly." ”
