Chapter 171: Kapok Hairpin
The awkward atmosphere between the two of them was because Jiang Yu didn't know what to say to the man in front of her since Xiao Monan's confession to herself was rejected.
So the two of them sat there and ate the dishes silently, and after eating, Xiao Mo Nan looked up at Jiang Yu and said, "I have a gift for you." ”
After finishing speaking, he took out a wooden box from behind him, and then pushed it in the direction of Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yu subconsciously refused directly and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao, I can't accept your gift." ”
"Why can't you accept it?" Xiao Monan's face changed a little, and then he frowned slightly and said.
Suddenly asked by him, Jiang Yu was also stunned in place, did she want to say that she rejected his confession, so she was embarrassed to accept his gift, or after accepting his gift, he would be misunderstood that she also liked him.
I don't know why, Jiang Yu tried her best to hide the careful thoughts in her heart, not wanting the man in front of her to notice half of it.
"As a friend, it's probably okay to accept gifts." Xiao Monan said lightly, and then pushed the wooden box in the direction of Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan still shook her head, and then her expression was calm but with a touch of firmness, Xiao Mo Nan was quiet for a few seconds, and then opened the wooden box, and there was a kapok hairpin carved from jasper lying quietly.
This hairpin is very green and transparent, which makes people love it at a glance, and even Jiang Yan noticed a faint aura on this hairpin, which can show that this hairpin is worth a lot.
She was already reluctant to accept gifts, and when she saw the value of this hairpin, she was even more reluctant to accept it, she stood up directly and said to Xiao Monan: "Mr. Xiao, please don't have to be so good to me in the future, and I have already rejected you, please also keep a proper distance from me, we are just a doctor and a patient." ”
"Not even friends, aren't they?" Xiao Mo Nan suddenly said with some loss, and even a sad expression flashed on her face, which made Jiang Yu stunned in place for an instant.
Xiao Monan, who has always been indifferent and ruthless, showed a slightly vulnerable side in front of him, how could Jiang Yu resist? When he saw his hurt expression like this, he finally gritted his teeth and said.
"Yes, we are a little closer than the relationship between doctors and patients, we are friends, but I can't accept such a valuable gift from you between friends, so please ask Mr. Xiao to take it back."
Hearing the woman in front of her admit that the two were friends, Xiao Monan's mouth brought a slight smile, and then stood up and picked up the jasper hairpin in the wooden box, came to her, and took down the wooden hairpin on her head.
The moment the wooden hairpin was taken down, Jiang Yan's hair poured down on her shoulders like a waterfall, black as ink, confusing Xiao Monan's mind.
When he saw this soft and jet-black hair, Xiao Monan could still smell the faint fragrance from above, and he couldn't help but feel relaxed.
Then he stabilized his mind, turned the jasper hairpin into a flower, and then inserted it on Jiang Yan's head, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Since you have recognized the two of us as friends, it is natural to accept this courtesy."
Jiang Yu did not resist this series of actions, but stood in place a little stunned, Xiao Mo Nan pulled her hair so gently, a woman would be tempted.
God knows how much strength Xiao Mo Nan used to suppress his desire to hug Jiang Yan, and then returned to his position silently, even the faint fragrance still emanated from his palm.
"Thank you." After Jiang Yu was silent for a moment, she only said thank you, but she had already made up her mind in her heart to give Xiao Mo Nan a gift of the same value.
Xiao Mo Nan smiled and nodded, and then the two of them returned to the small villa by Baiyun Lake together, Jiang Wei came to her small courtyard silently, still taking care of the medicine field.
She thought about it in the car and felt that the best gift she could give back to Xiao Monan was to completely suppress the illness in his body and make him a normal person.
So she came to Baiyun Lake and found the herb she had planted before, but found that the herb was not growing as well as she expected.
"What's going on? Obviously, the previous growth was very good, and there are about two months to mature, why do you suddenly have a sense of decay now? Jiang Wei frowned slightly and observed the herbs planted by Baiyun Lake.
But something even more surprising happened, she didn't know why the herb had become the way it was.
So after hesitating for a moment, she moved the herb to her Shennong space, which was a last resort.
Because once you arrive at the herbs in the Shennong space, although you can absorb the aura in the space and grow into a herb with higher medicinal effect, it also has a fatal shortcoming.
That is, in the process of absorbing aura, the growth of this herb will become slower and slower, and the demand for aura will become higher and higher in the later stage, just like the ghost plant planted in the space at the beginning.
In the later stage, Jiang Yu even needed to kiss Xiao Mo Nan a few more times before she could absorb enough mature aura from that man's body.
"Forget it, let's wait two more months." Things have come to this point, Jiang Yu has no other way, and the herbs that absorb aura are also more effective in treating Xiao Monan's illness.
After doing all this, Jiang Yu returned to the small villa, and then saw that Xiao Mo Nan was actually making tea there, and her movements were a little rusty and clumsy.
When Meng Ya was there before, it was Meng Ya and Jiang Yu who made tea, and Xiao Mo Nan rarely did it.
I don't know why, although the man's movements were a little clumsy, Jiang Yu seemed to be admiring a pleasing painting, standing not far away and watching Xiao Mo Nan and not bothering the man.
After a while, Xiao Monan put down the teapot, then picked up the tea he had brewed, took a sip gently, and then put it down directly with a slight frown.
"That's not how tea is made, I'll teach you." Jiang Wei walked in, then picked up the teapot, flushed the teacup again with an elegant posture, and then patiently explained the steps of making tea to Xiao Monan while making tea.
Xiao Mo Nan was also there listening carefully, and from time to time he would ask questions, and Jiang Yu would answer him in every detail, the two of them came and went, and they actually said more than they did at dinner.
