Chapter 23 Visiting the Sick
It rained overnight, although the rain stopped on the second day, it was still gloomy weather, Peng Hao came to Mohe Garden early after dinner, and it was late to return home last night, so he didn't come over, and only sent the maid around him to inquire, although he got the news that his sister was getting better, but he didn't look at it after all.
When he came to Mohe Garden, the doctor was taking the pulse, Peng Mo saw Peng Hao pursing his lips and smiling; Peng Hao saw that his sister's face was not bad, his heart was slightly calm, he smiled, he didn't dare to come forward to disturb, he sat down outside, and waited for a while before seeing the doctor take his hand, and stepped forward to ask: "Doctor Zhu, how is my sister?"
Doctor Zhu was a white-bearded old man, and when he heard the voice, he turned around and saw Peng Hao, and said, "Third Young Master." ”
Peng Hao politely returned the salute, but still asked, "How is my sister?"
Peng Mo was mostly sick because of this Dr. Zhu's treatment, he knew that his brother and sister had a good relationship, and when he saw Peng Hao, he smiled anxiously, and said: "Fourth Miss is no longer in trouble, as long as you take medicine on time and recuperate for a few days, remember not to catch the cold again." ”
"Yes, yes, remember. Peng Hao hurriedly wrote it down.
Lianfeng sent Dr. Zhu out, Peng Mo half lay on the chaise longue under the window, patted the stool next to the chair and motioned for Peng Hao to sit down.
Peng Hao sat down, looked at his sister's still somewhat sick face and sighed, and said, "It's okay now, I'm worried about death." ”
Peng Mo smiled when he heard this, the third brother was still very cute when he was young, which was like a hard and unsmiling after he became a soldier in the army, but thinking of his brother's future achievements, he was still very proud as his younger sister, looked at the third brother's worried eyes, and smiled lightly: "Third brother don't worry, I won't get sick easily in the future." ”
Peng Hao only regarded his sister as a comforter and nodded.
"Third brother can be arranged?" Peng Mo looked at the room and asked softly.
Peng Hao was stunned, then he knew what his sister meant, and he also looked carefully at the room, and then said softly: "It has been quietly arranged, they are all henchmen, my sister can rest assured." ”
Peng Mo nodded, although the third brother is still young, but the portal of the General's Mansion has also lasted for a few years, so he is much more experienced and stable than his peers, and he also has some skills in knowing people, since he said rest assured, Peng Mo can rest assured.
"It's just that this rain stops falling from time to time, will the flood really come?" Peng Hao looked out the window and asked.
It's not that he doesn't believe his sister, he's just a little curious about what his sister relies on?
Peng Mo also followed and looked out the window, in his previous life, it should have been more than ten days after the Mid-Autumn Festival before the heavy rain stopped, and now, it has been seven days since he was reborn, and it is almost there!
"It's coming. ”
Peng Mo's voice was very soft, but Peng Hao felt very dignified when he heard it, and frowned and said, "Sister, don't worry about this, it's only right for you to take care of your illness." ”
Peng Mo smiled helplessly, this weak body is really a trouble. "I know, brother rest assured. After thinking for a while, he still instructed: "It's just that time is short, my brother must hurry up." ”
Peng Hao nodded and explained the preparations to his sister, so as not to worry about herself. "The grain and herbs have almost been prepared, and the last few batches will be in the warehouse tonight. "No one in Kyoto is aware of the flood epidemic now, so it is not difficult to buy herbs and food, and with the secret use of the business connections of the Shogun's Palace, it is only last night and today that I have been prepared.
"Third young master, fourth young lady. ”
Peng Hao and Peng Mo turned around and saw Qiao Yun standing at the door, Qiao Yun walked a few steps inside, and then said, "Madam asked the slave maid to see if the fourth lady felt better, and by the way, I replied to her what Dr. Zhu said." ”
"My sister felt better, so that my mother didn't have to worry, Dr. Zhu said that my sister should rest for a few days and not catch a cold. Peng Hao learned the doctor's words to Qiaoyun.
Qiao Yun nodded, and Peng Mo asked, "Mother can be in the Little Buddha Hall?"
"Yes, Madame is chanting, and I will come to see Miss Fourth in a while. Qiaoyun replied.
Peng Mo nodded, since his father died, his mother rarely went out, and every morning and evening she would recite the scriptures in the small Buddha hall for an hour, praying for the general's mansion and the soldiers who fought abroad, as well as her son!
"Tell my mother that I'm fine, I just ate a bowl of porridge. Peng Mo smiled, his tone with a little pride.
Qiaoyun felt funny when he heard it, nodded his head, and went to reply.
"Third young master, fourth young lady. "Because of the mercy of the wind, I went out to see off Dr. Zhu, and a maid who was waiting outside walked in to call for blessings.
"What's the matter?" Peng Hao asked.
"Back to the third young master, Zhang Ji was outside, saying that he had something to go back. The maid lowered her head and said softly.
Zhang Ji is a man, he can't enter Peng Mo's courtyard at will, and he only walks around the outer courtyard with Peng Hao on weekdays, and he is very polite, so he should have an urgent matter when he comes to the inner courtyard at this time.
When Peng Hao heard this, his brows frowned slightly, and he didn't stop getting up and walking out, and he remembered something halfway through, looked back at his sister in the chaise longue under the window, and smiled: "I'll go out for a while, my sister is so resting." ”
Peng Mo had already thought of what was going on, and nodded obediently after listening to the third brother's words.
This ally's action is fast, has he already found the place where the third brother has placed the family of the shopkeeper Sun? Judging by Zhang Ji's reaction, he should have taken people away!
At the beginning of the day
Lianfeng walked in, her little face was full of smiles, and she said with a smile: "Miss, do you know who is coming to our house?"
Peng Mo withdrew his eyes that sank into the book, and looked at the merciful wind, and his heart was secretly lined with the fact that it could not be the people from the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion? But the people from the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion would not be so happy to come to the Pian Feng! In the past few days, the merciful wind may have seen his attitude towards the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, so he didn't like them either! He couldn't guess for a while, so he asked, "Who is here?"
Lian Feng said with a smile: "It's His Royal Highness King Chen." He smiled again. "Miss, His Royal Highness King Chen was fascinated by the people of the Mansion when he arrived at our house, and I have long heard that His Royal Highness King Chen is good-looking, but I don't know that it is so good-looking?"
King Chen, Jin Xiuchen, Why is he here? Isn't he supposed to be dealing with the matter of Jin Rui's shop? Could it be that it wasn't his people who robbed the shopkeeper Sun's family?
It's just that if it weren't for Jin Xiuchen's robbed shopkeeper Sun's family, the only person with a motive could only be Jin Rui's people, so Jin Rui had already guessed that the General's Mansion was planning his shop?
I still wanted to hide in the dark and give Jin Rui a few head-on blows, but if he was detected, he could only pull it to the light!
Although it is a little difficult, it is more relieving to do things.
Lian Feng looked at Peng Mo's face was not good, and thought for a while: "Miss, although King Nachen has a bad reputation, he is still a good person, I heard that you are sick, and I brought some things." "Lian Feng knows that Miss is the person who values character the most, and she definitely doesn't like to be involved with a famous person like His Royal Highness King Chen.
Peng Mo listened to what Lian Feng said, thinking of Jin Xiuchen's statement last night that he was going to come to the General's Mansion to deliver medicinal herbs, he thought he was just talking, after all, it was really unreasonable for him to come to visit the sick with a man's swagger, and now he really came, but it was also in line with his style, and he couldn't help but chuckle out loud.
This Jin Xiuchen is also true, and the fame of people who are far away in the fiefdom can also be widely spread in Kyoto! This boudoir woman in Kyoto sneered at him and stayed away.
"The third brother is not in the house, is his mother entertaining?" Peng Mo smiled and asked.
"Yes. "Lian Feng likes to see the young lady laugh the most, and when she laughs, she only feels that her mood is bright.
"Yes. Peng Mo nodded, just have his mother with him, if the third brother is not there, Jin Xiuchen will not stay long.
Just as he was thinking about a few deliberately suppressed exclamations outside, Lian Feng listened and said suspiciously: "Slave maid go and take a look." "All the maids in Mohe Garden have been instructed by the lady and the third young master not to disturb Peng Mo's cultivation, so this is the first time that such a fuss has happened in Mohe Garden.
Peng Mo got up and pushed the window next to him wider, his vision was wide, and he saw the scene in the courtyard at once.
Jin Xiuchen was dressed in a plain dark purple robe, with his hair tied high, and a golden hairpin with a very simple shape, which was slightly more plain than his usual outfit, but it set off his extraordinary appearance even more.
At this moment, he was standing under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard and looking at the scenery in the courtyard, and suddenly felt that there was a gaze staring at him from behind, and when he turned around, he saw Peng Mo standing in front of the window.
Look at each other!
The originally hazy weather leaked a beam of sunlight at this moment, and through the branches and leaves of the osmanthus tree fell on Jin Xiuchen's body under the tree, and suddenly softened all his expressions, only to see him looking in his direction, for a moment, gently raising his lips, his eyes flashed slightly, and he was simply like a child under the sun.
Peng Mo looked at the smile and suddenly froze, and for a moment, he also raised the corners of his lips in response to the smile.
Jin Xiuchen was politely invited in, and Peng Mo got up to give a blessing. "His Royal Highness King Chen. ”
Jin Xiuchen looked at her, the lotus-colored dress at home, the hair was just simply held, the hairpin was a jade hairpin, the eyebrows were bent, the cinnabar mole was red, and the slightly pale face was the finishing touch, the feather eyelashes flashed a pair of watery eyes, the nose was exquisite, and the pink lips were bent into a good-looking arc, and it was difficult to hide the beauty without powder, Jin Xiuchen suddenly wanted to cover her appearance at the moment, and not show it to others, so as not to be coveted.
Coming back to his senses for a moment, Jin Xiuchen was really taken aback by this idea, how could he have such an idea? Didn't he tease her just because he thought she was interesting? Besides, her identity was to marry if she wanted to? No, why did she think of the word marry again?
Jin Xiuchen coughed lightly and suppressed the uncontrollable thoughts in his heart. "Sit down, Miss Peng Si is just healed, it's better not to be tired. Jin Xiuchen cleaned up the emotions on his face in an instant, and his handsome face was smiling.
Peng Mo nodded and said respectfully, "His Royal Highness King Xie Chen." ”
"This king happens to have nothing to do today, and he is bored, I heard that the fourth lady is sick, so I came to see you. Jin Xiuchen randomly chose a seat not far from Peng Mo, lifted his robe and sat down, a pair of peach blossom eyes flashed, and pouted.
Lian Feng was dumbfounded when he listened, can't His Royal Highness King Chen speak well?
Peng Mo was still sitting on the chaise longue under the window, listening to Jin Xiuchen's words, he lowered his eyes and smiled lightly, he was the only one who could say such things about visiting patients, but this was in line with his deliberately outward character, and the character he showed also reduced him a lot of calculations, who would bother to be in a person who can offend people even by speaking?
"Little girl, thank Your Royal Highness King Chen. Peng Mo bowed his head and thanked him respectfully.
Jin Xiuchen waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "With the friendship between this king and Peng Hao, it is really unreasonable if you don't come to visit. ”
The tone is still underwhelming!
Peng Mo listened to the little maid's deliberate but excited discussion outside the courtyard, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Chen's stunning appearance has aroused the love of men, women and children in this general's mansion, and the little girl admires it." ”
Jin Xiuchen choked, this girl...! She really doesn't suffer a loss! The woman is still good to say, who is rare in this man? She said it as if she had a habit of breaking his sleeves!
"I'm going to make tea. Peng Mo watched Jin Xiuchen take a deflated face, secretly happy in his heart, and ordered him to stand aside, glancing at Jin Xiuchen's gloomy face.
The merciful body replied yes, and went to prepare.
