Chapter 126: The Hundred Herbs
Zhang Xiaohua picked up the book, the book was not big, but it was very thick. On the written word, the three big characters of "Baicaoji" are obvious.
Although she hadn't seen the contents yet, Zhang Xiaohua vaguely guessed that this should be a book about herbal medicine.
Zhang Xiaohua didn't think much about it, and hurriedly opened it to read the contents. I saw that it was indeed a record of some herbs. There are pictures, names, and roles. They are all recorded in detail.
Zhang Xiaohua wondered in her heart, how could the original owner, a village girl, have such a book. And can she read it?
"It's all about some herbs, Xiaohua, how can you have such a book?" Qiu Mo asked curiously.
Zhang Xiaohua: "......"
She was also curious about the origin of the book! But who did she turn to?
"This... This is what I picked up. Zhang Xiaohua casually made up a lie, and then took the notebook and put it in the bag and took it away with the clothes.
Qiu Mo was a little suspicious in his heart, but he didn't ask more. came to Zhang Xiaohua's side and watched her pack.
"Qiu Mo, look at what else has fallen, you can leave without us." After Zhang Xiaohua packed her luggage, she looked around and said.
"No, we can go when Xiaohua is ready." Qiu Mo said without looking at it.
Zhang Xiaohua was speechless, but she didn't bother to talk about him. Wrapping the burden on his shoulders, he walked out of the room first.
This time it was Qiu Mo's turn to be speechless, he lifted the burden on his shoulders and followed.
In fact, for him, it doesn't matter what luggage he leaves behind, the most important thing is not to leave Zhang Xiaohua behind.
The reason why he didn't say it explicitly just now was because he knew that if he said this, Zhang Xiaohua would definitely say his rhetoric again.
When Zhang Xiaohua and Qiu Mo walked to the gate of the courtyard, Zhang Caisheng happened to come back.
Zhang Caisheng has several classmates in the village who are studying together in Lingshan Academy, so after being called back by Lan Cuimei for lunch today, he went out to find his classmates again. Haven't come back until now.
saw that Zhang Xiaohua and Qiu Mo were going out, and they were carrying luggage. Zhang Caisheng was a little surprised. "Third sister, who are you?"
"Second brother, Qiu Mo and I are going back, and we will come back when we have time." Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile.
"Go back?" Hearing Zhang Xiaohua say that he wanted to go back, Zhang Caisheng showed reluctance and said, "Why did you go back so soon?" Second brother hasn't talked to you yet! ”
"Second brother, after all, I am already married, and some things are involuntarily. I also want to stay, but I still have things at home, and I can't get out of it. Zhang Xiaohua was also reluctant, but said with an embarrassed face.
"The third sister said the same, but why go back now. It's getting late, so why not wait until tomorrow morning to go back? Zhang Caisheng looked at the sunset on the horizon and said.
"Mother-in-law Fang Cai came over and asked me to go back now, so ......!" Zhang Xiaohua said.
"So, since my aunt is in such a hurry to call you back, there must be something urgent. Then you better go back quickly! No matter how late it is, it won't be easy to leave when it's dark. ”
"Okay, then we'll go first. Second brother, take care. Zhang Xiaohua said, pulled Qiu Mo and walked out of the Zhang family's courtyard.
Zhang Caisheng watched them leave, looked at their backs for a long time, and then turned around and went back to the house.
He didn't know that when he turned around, Zhang Xiaohua glanced back at him.
Zhang Xiaohua's eyes narrowed slightly, as if she was thinking about something.
Zhang Caisheng seems to be a very gentle person, but she feels like talking to him as if she is talking to the lines. There is no ordinary friendship between brothers and sisters.
I don't know what the relationship between the original owner and Zhang Caisheng was.
But now she doesn't bother to care so much, this time when she goes back to Qiu's house, she doesn't know if there is a chance to come back.
Maybe it won't be long before her business is up and running, and she can just move out.
"Xiaohua, what are you thinking?" Qiu Mo saw that Zhang Xiaohua had been walking with her head down, and she didn't know what she was thinking, so he asked.
Zhang Xiaohua glanced up at Qiu Mo and said, "It's nothing, I'm thinking...!" Why did your mother suddenly come to us, it can't be that the family can't do the work, so she came to us, right? ”
Although Zhang Xiaohua asked like this, she already had the answer in her heart. In addition to coming to them to go back to work, what else can Hu Qiuxia do with them!
However, it seems that Qiu Mo's last frenzy had a good effect, and this time Hu Qiuxia didn't dare to talk to Qiu Mo when she came over.
"Qiu Mo, I will be very busy during this time, I don't have time to work, you must not take over all the work again. Otherwise, you will do it yourself, and I won't help you. Zhang Xiaohua thought for a while and said.
During this time, she must have to run to the town often, if she has been forced to work after returning to Qiu's house, then where will she have the time to do business!
Qiu Mo obviously thought of this as well, so he hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, I'm not stupid!" I won't let Xiaohua hard. ”
"Then what would you do if your mother asked you to go out to work?" Zhang Xiaohua asked.
She had to torture Qiu Mo in advance and teach him how to deal with it in advance. She didn't want Qiu Mo to be fooled by Hu Qiuxia again.
"This...! What does Xiaohua want me to do? Qiu Mo thought about it and asked.
Zhang Xiaohua: "......"
"Forget it, let's go back first!" Zhang Xiaohua said.
In fact, she really wanted Qiu Mo and Hu Qiuxia to do it against each other. But thinking about it, it was too immoral for her to instigate Qiu Mo like this, so she didn't say anything in the end. Anyway, if Qiu Mo is willing to listen to Hu Qiuxia, she won't stop her. As she said, Qiu Mo can do whatever he wants. But she won't help him, she has her own things to do.
"Oh!"
Qiu Mo thought that Zhang Xiaohua would come up with ideas for him, but he didn't expect Zhang Xiaohua to say anything. About this, he was very uneasy, and always felt that if he did something that made Zhang Xiaohua dissatisfied, she would not want him.
Qiu Mo silently took Zhang Xiaohua's hand and held it tightly.
Zhang Xiaohua looked at Qiu Mo's hand holding her tightly, her eyes flashed, but she didn't say anything.
When I returned to Qiu's house, it was already dark.
There were no lights in the yard and the light was a little dim. There was a light on the side of the master bedroom, and three figures were reflected in the window.
The sound of a boy reading could be heard in the room.
Zhang Xiaohua looked at this happy scene and couldn't help but glance at Qiu Mo. Seeing that there was no wave in his eyes, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she is not sure whether Qiu Mo is biological or not, and even if he is not biological, Hu Qiuxia and Qiu Hongsheng also raised his adoptive father and adoptive mother. But they never gave him a little love, they only knew to enslave him and use him.
I don't know how Qiu Mo will feel when he sees the picture of a happy family of three.
Envy or jealousy?
But when she looked at Qiu Mo's expressionless face, she didn't seem to feel anything at all!
Is it pretending to be strong?
Zhang Xiaohua turned to Qiu Mo, covered Qiu Mo's hand with the other hand, looked at him, and said, "Qiu Mo, don't think too much, I will definitely treat you well in the future." ”
Qiu Mo looked at Zhang Xiaohua in surprise, and found out that Zhang Xiaohua seemed to have misunderstood something.
But that's not bad.
Qiu Mo was happy in his heart, but there was a sad look on his face. With an aggrieved face, he buried his head on Zhang Xiaohua's shoulder: "Thank you, Xiaohua." ”
