Chapter 161: Melancholy

It's just that later, I still couldn't hold back, lifted the corner of the quilt, took off the plaster on it, and said, "Why is it swollen like this?" ”

Ruoshu said: "It's getting bigger and bigger." ”

Qin Daochuan said: "Although you are willful, you will know how powerful you will be when you are older." ”

Ruoshu looked at Qin Daochuan, who was gently touching his swollen ankle, and explained, "It doesn't hurt. ”

Qin Daochuan said sullenly: "Tomorrow, you will try to say this again?" ”

Ruoshu explained: "It's been fine all day, just now, Lan Zhi applied medicine to me, and it was swollen when I looked at it. ”

Qin Daochuan said: "What about the medicine? Show me. ”

Lan Zhi hurriedly came in from outside and handed over the medicine.

Qin Daochuan opened it and sniffed it, and said, "It's a treatment for bruises." ”

asked Lan Zhi again: "Have you rubbed it?" ”

Lan Zhi shook her head and said, "Just put a warm compress." ”

Qin Daochuan opened his mouth, didn't speak, touched Ruoshu's ankle again, inch by inch, slowly probed, and saw Ruoshu looking at the excitement with a blank face, and resisted the urge to press it hard.

In the end, Qin Daochuan said a little helplessly: "The bones are fine, I hurt the meridians, it seems that they are going to be swollen for a few days, don't work hard these days, just lie down." ”

Ruoshu said unconsciously: "Do you have to lie down?" ”

Qin Daochuan snorted and went to wash.

Ruoshu lay on the bed, thinking, blindly escaping is not a way, next time you will have to face it no matter what.

The eldest daughter Xianya is about to discuss marriage, and Zhongzhan can't wait a few years, although the two old ladies will definitely rush to make the decision, but she, the mother, always wants to see guests.

Besides, there are other children, year after year, and marriage cannot be saved.

Thinking about it, he had a little headache, Qin Daochuan came out to see him, and asked, "What's the matter, my feet are starting to hurt?" ”

Ruoshu said: "I have a headache when I think of so many marriages to handle. ”

Qin Daochuan didn't care about what was in front of her, but he was worried about what would happen in a few years, picked her up and moved in, carefully placed her feet, covered the quilt for the two of them, and then said: "Now that I know that I regret it, how good is it to honestly enter the palace today?" ”

Ruoshu said, "What are you going to do today?" Let people watch tricks? ”

Qin Daochuan said: "When the decree of the first product of the dynasty, we accounted for three of them, and it is normal for others to take a look." You are not afraid of heaven and earth, and you are afraid of people looking at you. ”

Ruoshu said: "You are finally right, I really don't want to see people." ”

Qin Daochuan looked at her and frowned.

Ruoshu explained: "I have been hidden by my grandmother in the green house since I was a child, and I am used to being alone. Later, when I came out of Qinglu, most of the people I saw were shopkeepers, so I didn't need to be polite. Now let me go to serve others and be small, I really don't want to. ”

Qin Daochuan looked at her, didn't reply for a long time, and then said: "That is the case, if you can push it in the future, just say that you are not in good health, you don't have to hurt yourself like this." ”

Ruoshu nodded and said, "I think so too." ”

Qin Daochuan calmed down his complicated mood, and after lying down, he closed his eyes and didn't want to pay attention to her anymore.

Ruoshu couldn't sleep because he suddenly remembered something.

Du Ruoyuan's sister Ruoxian should be an adult, but she doesn't seem to have heard of Du Ruoyuan's marriage for her.

Thinking about it, Ruo Shu blamed herself a little, thinking that if Aunt Lan was still there, she would definitely take care of these things as soon as possible.

Ruoxian's marriage, the children's next marriage, was like a huge black suddenly shrouded, making Ruoshu rarely panicked, but looking up, it seemed that no one could help him get an idea.

If only my grandmother were still around.

Inadvertently, he turned his head to look at Qin Daochuan, feeling that he was close at hand and far away in the sky.

Fortunately, there is some good news next, because of the change in the emperor's mentality, the situation in the territory has also loosened a little, since the Lantern Festival, the business of the Qingzhou store has improved slightly, and this month's income and expenditure can finally be flat.

Ruoshu asked about Ruoxian's marriage in a letter to Du Ruoyuan, and Du Ruoyuan replied simply, saying that his sister had been taken to the capital by him a few years ago and was looking for it.

Ruoshu felt powerless again, and he didn't have anyone to recommend. As soon as people fall into the trough of their emotions, they will be cranky, Ruoshu once again remembered the reason why his grandmother tried her best to marry Qin Daochuan in the first place, isn't it just to cross the gap in identity, otherwise she is probably a businesswoman now.

Qin Daochuan came in from outside at this time, saw Ruoshu staring at him blankly, and asked curiously after approaching, "What are you thinking?" ”

Ruoshu stared at his face that was getting closer and closer, and suddenly remembered the last letter from Master Zheng, Mother, and Aunt Lan. The rebellious mentality arises spontaneously, and I put aside my face and think, what's wrong with marrying a businesswoman? At least not as hard as it is now.

Qin Daochuan saw that her face was sunny and rainy, and knew that nothing good would happen, so he sat opposite the small table, picked up the style drawing she drew for the new house and looked at it.

Ruoshu, who was half-lying on the soft couch, became more and more angry the more he thought about it, stretched out his foot and kicked it, and then heard her "sigh" scream, Qin Daochuan looked down at the foot that stretched out a few days and just kicked himself, and was speechless for a long time.

Then the courtyard could always hear Ruoshu's voice calling there, "Alas, you light, it hurts, it's too cold, it's cold." ”

Qin Daochuan remained silent, holding ice cubes to help her ice her increasingly swollen ankles.

At lunchtime, Ruoshu, who was dining alone, listened to the laughter in the dining hall, and the delicacies in front of him were tasteless.

After a while, Zhonglan walked in and said, "Mother, are you done eating?" ”

Ruoshu snorted and said to him, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Zhonglan took the plate in front of her and sat down from the small table. said: "Mother, is the injury better?" ”

Ruoshu said: "It will take a hundred days for the injury to move the bones, and it will slowly get better." ”

Zhonglan said: "Mother, the child has something to ask his mother. ”

Ruoshu thought of Master Zheng for a moment, straightened his waist involuntarily, and said, "Say it." ”

Zhonglan said: "Mother, the child is a little dazed. ”

Ruoshu looked at his son, who was not yet ten years old in front of him, and the word dazed really shouldn't have come out of his mouth. Stabilizing his mind, he said, "Why? ”

Zhonglan said: "The child doesn't know why he learns hard? ”

When Ruoshu heard this, he thought that he was tired of studying, so he said with some solemnity: "If the young man does not work hard, the boss will be sad." Why should we be afraid of suffering? ”

Zhonglan said: "The children are excellent in the academy, and the uncles in the family say that my fist skills are in place, and I am better than everyone else, but the mother and the child are not happy." ”

Ruoshu felt that his head was a little cloudy, so he could only ask, "Why?" ”

Zhonglan hesitated for a moment, looked at Ruoshu and said, "Mother, I am not the eldest son, and I don't have the burden of the eldest brother. Because of his noble background, he will not be able to participate in scientific examinations in the future, and he will not be able to become an official. The only way out is to fight and become a general, but mothers and children don't like that. ”

Ruo Shu's head is big, and he has never figured out the problem, but Zhonglan once again piled it in front of his eyes.
