Chapter 40: The Lord of the County Visits
For a few days, I was lying down, holding Xiaoyi so hard that I couldn't go out to play, he just crawled and played under the bed every day, Wei Zihan came over to accompany me every day, of course, in order to avoid suspicion Xiaoyu also followed, they saw that Xiaoyi was not afraid of the beginning, Wei Zihan also dared to pick up Xiaoyi to play with it, Xiaoyi is also psychic, knowing that Wei Zihan cares about me, and is also very kind to Wei Zihan, and climbs on her shoulder from time to time to play.
The old man and Wang Jinhuai saw that Wei Zihan was here every day, that is, he came in in the morning to take a look, and he usually didn't bother us much, except for the time when the old man went out to the government to inquire about the news, he was with Wang Jinhuai, and he studied the Book of Changes every day, and it was a miracle that a scholar and a martial artist could also get together.
In the past few days, Wei Zihan has pestered me to tell her Taoist allusions, I am from the three emperors and five emperors, to how Lao Tzu Li Er rode a bull out of Guguan, what Zhang Daoling soared in the daytime, Zhang Sanfeng Laoshan met immortals, Laoshan twelve scenes, from Laoding to the sea cloud mountain, I told him all the stories that could be told from beginning to end, and Wei Zihan pestered me to learn the Tao, I told her that it was not a day or two to learn.
On the morning of the fourth day, my chest was not so painful, I was able to sit up, I was idle, I practiced the heart method of soul gathering, this period of time, I felt that my soul alchemy had made great progress, and I faintly felt like breaking through the first layer, maybe it was coming to the world, I was exposed to more new things, and I couldn't understand many things before, but now I can figure it out, no wonder the master used to say that cultivation is not, let you stay in one place to read the heart and read the scriptures, but to practice, practice is to practice the heart law and go out at the same time, The master has been to many places in the past, and the Taoist masters in the past have also traveled all over the world, and have different understandings in different places, which is knowledge, and has seen a lot of knowledge.
After practicing for an hour, Wei Zihan and Xiaoyu came, and pestered me to tell her Taoist stories for a while, I occasionally made a little trick for her, which made the two girls laugh constantly, I think it's not good to go on like this, outsiders will gossip, I don't care, the impact on Wei Zihan is not good, especially the four family members are not far away, they have been staying for half an hour, I said that I was a little tired and wanted to rest, Wei Zihan said: "I'll go to the kitchen to see if there is anything delicious for you to bring to the eldest brother, don't you fall asleep" I just sent Wei Zihan out, trying to go down for a walk. I heard the sound of someone talking outside the door, and then the door was pushed open, and in front was the old man Wang, followed by the palace housekeeper who spoke that day, and a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.
I didn't look at it carefully that day because of the injury, now it seems that the beauty of this girl and Wei Zihan is exactly the same, Wei Zihan's beauty lies in her purity, this girl, her appearance is naturally first-class and good-looking, mainly because of her temperament, every line and every move is full of nobility, don't look at her age, she is much more mature and stable than Wei Zihan.
A few people came to the bed, and I was about to go down to salute, but the old man held me down and said, "Don't come down, it's not good yet, this is the county lord of Xiurong and Steward Liu coming to see you." Lord Xiurong, the day before yesterday, he also sent someone a hundred taels of silver, saying that he was buying medicine for you and inviting Langzhong. A few days ago, the county lord came to see you every day, but it was inconvenient for you to lie down, so you only sat in the living room outside, and today I heard that you can sit up, and the county lord insisted on coming to see you. ”
I hurriedly donated to the girl. It's considered a salute, but if you usually see the county lord, you have to kneel down. The girl also returned the favor with a little ten thousand blessings, only to hear the girl say: "It was me Meng Lang that day, I didn't expect the horse to be frightened, if it wasn't for the Taoist chief sacrificing his life to block the frightened horse, now I don't know if I will talk to the Taoist here." The injured Taoist chief, I feel deeply guilty, today I am here to thank you, but also to see how the Taoist is injured, there are a few Lang in the house who have good Chinese medicine skills, do you want to invite you to show the Taoist chief. I hurriedly said: "The county lord Lao is worried, it has been much better, they are all minor injuries, I also know a little bit of medical skills, and the old man Wang will also deal with this kind of bruises, so there is no need to trouble the county lord anymore."
After chatting a few more words, the county lord of Xiurong was also humble and apologized, and Steward Liu also spoke very politely, without the domineering posture of the ordinary prince's mansion. Before the county lord left, Wei Zihan walked in, holding a casserole in his hand, and the pot was still steaming. There was also a hand towel on the outside of the pot, it seemed to be very hot, Xiaoyu was holding a bowl like a fart, following behind, and Xiaoyu said while walking: "Dao Chief, the soup that my young lady stewed for you is very delicious, you can taste it." When the county lord of Xiurong saw Wei Zihan coming in, he also said: "Dao Chief, we are leaving, we will not delay your meal, and we will come to see you another day." After speaking, he took Steward Liu and turned around and walked out of the door, and when he walked to Wei Zihan's side, he stopped slightly, glanced at Wei Zihan, and then walked out of the door.
Wei Zihan didn't say anything, Xiaoyu was unhappy, and muttered: "What kind of county lord, he is not polite at all, and he doesn't even say hello." ”
I smiled and said, "Xiaoyu, don't be angry, we have to salute when we see the county lord, but now we don't salute the county lord, it's us who are rude, and we can't complain." ”
Wei Zihan didn't speak, his face was not very good-looking, but he just put the casserole heavily on the table next to the bed. said: "Brother Lei talked to the county lord about speculation, don't you want us to disturb, if you don't want to, I'll go out." "A girl's heart is like this, like a peacock on the screen, she is jealous when she sees a girl who is more beautiful than herself.
When the old man saw this, he had already made an excuse to sneak out of the room. Except that Xiaoyu is Wei Zihan, I saw this and hurriedly coaxed and said: "The county lord came to see my injury, no matter how good the county lord is, it is not as good as Zihan, you see Zihan is gentle, considerate and beautiful, Xiaoyu, you are right." ”
Xiao Yu over there also said: "That's right, it's still my young lady who is beautiful, and the county lord is more noble than us." In terms of figure and appearance, she is not as good as my young lady. ”
The two of us sang and harmonized, and Wei Zihan sneered and laughed, "You two are poor, big brother, I'll give you stewed ginseng soup, Old Man Wang said you need a big supplement, I'll let Shunzi buy ginseng, big brother, you taste it." As he spoke, he took the bowl in Xiaoyu's hand and filled me with a bowl, I took it and drank it all in a few sips. Wei Zihan wanted to give me another sheng, so I hurriedly said: "Zihan, don't want it now, it's not good to drink too much of this, I'll drink it again later, you two can go to dinner." ”
Wei Zihan put down the spoon in his hand: "Big brother, you remember to drink, let's go eat first." After speaking, he left the room with Xiaoyu.
