Chapter 285: Borrowing a knife to kill
It didn't take long for the carriage to stop at the door of Xu's pharmacy.
Jing Anyao had already asked people to pass the message, and Yu Jiaodie and the old couple of the Yu family were waiting at the door early, looking at the mouth of the alley as if they were looking at it.
"Apricot!"
"Mother! Grandparents! ”
The moment Yu Jiaodie saw Mu Xing'er get out of the carriage and couldn't wait to get out, tears flowed out uncontrollably, and she stepped forward and hugged Mu Xing'er in her arms.
The old couple of the Yu family also hurriedly stepped forward, looked here, touched there, and saw if there was any change in their granddaughter.
"Okay, Xing'er's body bones are much stronger than before."
"Isn't it, I've grown a little taller as I lose weight."
The old couple stroked Mu Xing'er's hair excitedly, looking at the many differences between Mu Xing'er at this time and the child who didn't understand anything in their impression in the past.
Mu Xing'er was wearing a light pink dress, just looking at the material that was slightly shiny in the sun, she knew that the price was expensive, although she was still a little childish, but compared with before, she was much more mature, which was already a qualitative change.
"Wen Ran, thanks to your care for Xing'er during this time, we ...... Our Yu family is really beyond retribution. "Especially Yu Jiaodie, she asked Mu Xing'er to come to the capital with Mu Wenran, but she just wanted her to see the world and eat with Mu Wenran, but she didn't expect that now it has become the most correct thing she has ever done in her life.
"It's okay, little aunt, Xing'er was originally my sister, shouldn't I do this?" Mu Wenran hurriedly went to help Yu Jiaodie, while the old couple of the Yu family and Xu Yu hurriedly knelt down in front of Jing Anyao.
"See ...... for grass people"
"Don't be polite, it's okay for you to know who I am, don't let the people here know."
Jing Anyao bowed slightly, stretched out his hand to help the group of people up one by one, his smile was warm and kind, and he was dressed in a white brocade robe, so that he did not have that feeling of being superior, but had the temperament of a rich and noble son.
Mu Wenran didn't want to drag it out any longer, and hurriedly handed over the white cotton cloth in his hand to Xu Yu's hands.
"Master, Master, please help me look at the problem with this spice."
"And here, this is what Satsuki brought."
Mu Xing'er saw that Mu Wenran began to study those spices, and hurriedly followed up in the pharmacy, and took out the spices of the concubine brought by Xiaoyue from her arms.
All the spice samples were taken together, just waiting for Xu Yu to study.
Xu Miao carefully checked the samples on this table, and carefully studied them one by one, Mu Wenran watched him study, and listened to Mu Xing'er and the family chatter without saying a word, but he was not sleepy at all, staring at Xu Yu's slow hand speed with blazing eyes.
"Hmm...... This musk spice is indeed the same kind, not produced in the territory of the country, it is a drug imported from other regions, it has a slight toxicity, and its use seems to be very extensive. If it is used alone, it will definitely fall into the root of the disease in the long run, and if it is adulterated, it will not harm people. ”
Xu Chao was silent for a long time, and finally breathed a sigh of relief and hammered his waist.
The three members of the Yu family didn't know what was going on, so they could only listen to it with their mouths closed.
Mu Xing'er looked at these spices, her eyes were shining, and she only felt that her knowledge seemed to have increased a lot, it turned out that this flavor medicine could have so many effects, it was really amazing.
"I can't hang it up before, Mother Gui said that how did the nobles in this palace use such a subordinate method, is it this spice?"
"Eh, you can't say that, Xing'er, the drugs in the world are much the same, whether they are good or bad, it depends on how you use them."
Xu was noncommittal, stroked his snow-white beard, and groaned.
"I heard the palace maid say that most of this spice is with the queen, and I am wondering why the queen is not pure, it turns out that this thing is poisonous." Mu Wenran lowered his gaze and muttered as if talking to himself.
"The concubine's share is purely for use, but you can't trust it all."
Jing Anyao stretched out his hand and twisted some out of the powder, and when he rubbed it gently, the powder drifted away with the wind.
"I can't be mistaken, the last time I was hunted down, the smell was not as strong as this, it must have been a drug made of other drugs." After Mu Wenran finished speaking, he paused again, and then denied himself.
"But is it really that simple? The queen and the concubine are not simple characters, what can be used for this spice, they must be very clear in their hearts......"
Mu Xing'er's eyes widened, how could she not know when Mu Wenran had been attacked, but this was not the point.
She bit her lip, her little face was tangled, as if she had discovered something terrible, and her voice trembled slightly.
"Sister...... Are you saying that maybe it is possible that the concubine will not marry the queen? ”
"It's possible."
Although these four people have long been accustomed to discussing this matter, this short guess can scare the people of the Yu family.
"This ...... What the hell is going on, aren't you here to do business in the capital? How can you still get involved in these relationships with the people in the palace! ”
"Yes, you must be careful, I listened to the queen and concubine, and my heart and liver trembled."
The old couple of the Yu family supported each other, their hands and feet were cold, and they looked at the two girls worriedly.
They are also old, and they don't expect these two little girls to do anything earth-shattering, they just hope that the two of them can live the rest of their lives peacefully.
"If it's not involved, it's already involved, you don't want to think about it, the four princes have been wandering around our village for a long time, and when they arrive in the capital, how many pairs of eyes are staring, and besides, this business is getting bigger, it is inevitable to have contact with these dignitaries and nobles, and it is inevitable to get married to the people in the palace." Mu Xing'er calmly comforted them.
"Apricot ......"
"Mother, grandparents, you don't have to worry so much, I have my sister to protect me, there won't be any trouble, the four princes are still here, don't worry."
Is this really said by Xing'er! Yu Jiaodie listened to Mu Xing'er's words, and her heart couldn't help but feel hot.
This scene is really like a scene when she was young, at that time, she was clamoring to do a big business in the future, but the old couple's worries and protection forced her to suppress this idea in the bottom of her heart, and now her daughter wants to fulfill her young dream, although it is a little dangerous, but she wants to support it.
"Xing'er, it's not that your mother and grandparents don't let you do these things, but you must pay attention to accept it when you see it, and don't offend anyone......"
"With this king here, don't worry, I will do my best to protect Wen Ran and Xing'er."
Everyone was stunned, and they all looked at Jing Anyao, who was smiling harmlessly, his methods had already been seen by everyone in the village.
Fang Cai Mu Xing'er said that they were still a little worried, but now that they had Jing Anyao's personal assurance, their hearts slowly fell into their stomachs.
