Chapter 81: An Unexpected Visitor

On this day, Feng Yishu didn't get home until dark.

Before he changed his clothes, he ran to Si Yongzhai and his mother to report that he was safe - this has been the case all these years, and there are many emergencies in the Ping Demon Department, and it is common for him to suddenly encounter an urgent task, and it is common for him not to come back for three or five days, Li understands it reasonably, but every time Feng Yishu suddenly loses news, she will still be so worried that she can't sleep.

"Mother-I'm back," Feng Yishu stepped into the door frame, "Xiao Qi is also here." ”

"Fifth brother, you're back!"

In the room, Li and Xiao Qi were sitting together, each with a medicine bowl in their hands, looking like they were grinding something.

Seeing that Wulang was coming, Li put down the pounding stick in his hand, got up and walked to his son to ask him the details of the past two days, Feng Yishu said something hastily, frowned and looked at the medicine bowl on the table.

Feng Yishu frowned, "What are you grinding, why don't you let the subordinates go outside to grind...... The smell of medicine in the house is so rushing, mother, how do you sleep at night? ”

"Do you feel rushed?" Li smiled, "This is the medicinal herb that your father used to compress his legs in the past few days, I think it's quite fragrant." ”

"Where's Daddy?"

"I've gone to Chang'an, your Uncle Di hastened a letter this morning and summoned people away, and it is estimated that it will take another five or six days to come back."

"That's it," Feng Yishu's gaze swept over the three teacups on the table next to him, "That family is ...... today Are there other guests? ”

"Mr. Mei is here." Li Shi sighed as he spoke, "Your father is really a person, he doesn't give people peace of mind at such an age, he said that he would do acupuncture every other day this month, and he only did it a few times, and he ran away, Mr. Mei heard about it this morning, and sent a lot of medicinal materials over in the evening, and as soon as the city gate opened tomorrow morning, let Feng Liang hurry up and send it over......"

Feng Yishu was stunned and looked left and right, "Mr. Mei is here...... Why don't you see others? ”

"I just went out with Feng Liang, saying that I had to see how the carriage transporting medicinal materials was arranged, these medicinal materials are very expensive, and when they are damp and see the light, the medicinal effect seems to have to be discounted."

"Oh...... Then he bothered. Feng Yishu walked over to his mother and sat down, he rolled up his sleeves, "You two can rest, I'll help you grind the rest of the medicine." ”

Li Shi hurriedly stretched out his hand and slapped the back of Feng Yishu's hand lightly, "No, there are many rules for grinding this medicine, Mr. Mei just let go after a long time - come, if you really want to help, come and do this-"

Li Shi said, pushing a small orange on the table to Feng Yishu's side.

Feng Yishu was puzzled, "...... Peeling oranges for you to eat? ”

Xiao Qi let out a few meaningful smiles, "Hahaha no, my mother asked you to send oranges to the guests next door to eat." ”

"Next door? What kind of guests? ”

"Ah Yu, she also came with her today, reading in the next room,"

……

There were a few candles lit in the wing, and as soon as Feng Yishu pushed the door, he saw a girl sitting at the table reading a book.

Ah Yu raised his head when he heard the sound and glanced at him, and the moment his eyes met, Feng Yishu suddenly felt a little short of breath.

But Ah Yu didn't say anything, she lowered her head to Feng Yishu slightly, as a greeting, and her eyes returned to the book in front of her.

Feng Yishu took a deep breath.

"I'll ...... I'll send you some oranges to eat. He muttered quietly as he placed the small fruit bowl on Ayu's table.

"Thank you."

Ah Yu thanked him softly, and turned another page of the book in his hand.

Feng Yishu looked at Ah Yu, who was reading with his head down, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable all over, "You...... Have you had dinner? ”

"Eat."

"Uh...... Both, what did you eat? ”

"Turnips." Ah Yu said lightly.

"Huh?" Feng Yishu was stunned for a moment, "Did you only eat radish?" ”

Ah Yu didn't look at him, her gaze slowly moved along the words on the book in front of her, and after a long while, she said softly, "...... And lotus root. ”

"Autumn...... Autumn is indeed a good time to eat lotus roots, hahaha. Feng Yishu laughed dryly, and silently gave up continuing the topic in his heart, he looked at the fruit he had just brought again, "That, this orange is quite sweet...... Don't you want to taste it? ”

Ayu shook his head, "I'm not hungry, thank you." ”

The toes in Feng Yishu's shoes began to pick at the ground.

From the moment he entered the door, Ayu basically didn't say a complete word to him, although he couldn't say how sharp he was...... But it's the first time in my life to talk to someone so awkwardly.

And so on...... It's really going to be annoying, isn't it better to leave now-

Feng Yishu only felt that his scalp was numb, and after thinking about it, he decided to run away temporarily, and when he was about to get up, his eyes inadvertently swept over the book that Ah Yu was reading, and suddenly saw the word "Heron".

Well?

Isn't that a coincidence...... A few years ago, when he was on a mission, he had met a heron in the wild, and if he hadn't been able to get home at that time, he would have grabbed one with his bare hands and brought it back to the Ping Demon Bureau.

Feng Yishu suddenly felt that he had another chance, he looked sideways slightly, and also followed Ah Yu, but when he looked at it, his brows furrowed.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What kind of book is this? ”

"Pacific Range Rover." Ah Yu quietly flipped the book cover and showed it to Feng Yishu.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Uh," Feng Yishu's brows furrowed even deeper, "I haven't heard of the book, but this paragraph must have been written incorrectly-'Famous beasts make feet, go thousands of miles; Heron and wild horse, walk 500 miles', this sentence is obviously 'Raccoon' instead of 'Heron', and Heron does not walk on the ground, people fly in the sky. ”

Feng Yishu took the book and looked down a few more lines, and laughed repeatedly, "Look at you, it says here that the heron is 'wearing dragon armor, with a mane hanging down on its head, and its face looks like a tiger'β€”this is obviously a heron, and the person who wrote the book must have confused the heron with the heronβ€”"

Feng Yishu was about to continue to laugh, but as soon as he looked up, he found that Ah Yu was looking at him with sparkling eyes.

"Have you ever seen a heron?" Ayu asked softly.

Feng Yishu swallowed, "...... Well, a few years ago it was north of Chang'an...... I was lucky enough to see it once. ”

Ah Yu let out a sigh of envy.

Feng Yishu scratched his head a little embarrassed, "Ah, it's actually not a big deal, it's easier to meet these birds and beasts when running outside all the timeβ€”I'm used to it, hahahaha." ”

But the girl still looked at him with yearning eyes, and those jewel-like eyes burned Feng Yishu's face, and he hurriedly staggered his gaze to look away.

It feels ...... It was clear that something was blocking his heart, and even his breathing became a little unsmooth.

"Excuse me......" Ah Yu looked at him with a little curiosity, "What does a real heron look like?" ”
