Chapter 40: The Handle
Xu Yunqing returned to the room, and for a while, he remembered He Mian'er, and the letters exchanged in the general's mansion in the past few days had not yet been delivered.
He didn't know if He Mian'er really listened to his explanation and forgave him.
At that moment, he wrote another letter. The letter wrote: "Mian'er and my wife, the summer is scorching, the lady should not be angry, just wait for her husband to return to Beijing, personally make amends to the lady, and take the lady to the summer resort to rest for a few months." If the lady is still not angry, it is all up to the lady to deal with it. ”
Just put away the pen and ink, Xu Yunqing was about to fold the letter, I don't know what I remembered, and hurriedly picked up the brush again, adding a half-sized smile at the end.
Only then did he fold the letter, summoned his subordinates in, and said, "Send this letter to the post station and send it back to the general's mansion." ”
He tidied up his clothes and went back to Xie Wanqing's room. After all, the enemy in the shadows has been eyeing each other, and there is no room for negligence.
In fact, when Xie Wanqing questioned him just now, there was a sentence that was right. He Mian'er is really a good color, like a delicate flower waiting to be released.
It's just a red face and white bones, in front of a person like him who is used to seeing life and death, the beauty is like that beautiful scenery, but he just watched it from a distance and praised it.
Even then, when he went to look for He Mian'er, he was distracted for a moment by her hopeful gaze, and it was only limited to that.
In the three years of the frontier, he really never thought about her for a day.
What really touched him was He Mian'er's forbearance when he returned again. Those eyes are still good-looking, but they have also witnessed too much suffering in the world.
This time, I am afraid that she will be sad for a few more days, Xu Yunqing thought of this, but wanted to fly back to the general's mansion with the letter to make amends to He Mian'er.
Thinking of this, he sighed and knocked softly on the door. Xie Wanqing opened the door, she had already changed her clothes, she was dressed in a vegetarian body, and her face looked very calm, no one could guess that she had just cried bitterly.
Xu Yunqing looked at the white flowers on her head, and realized that she was widowing the dead King Chen.
I didn't know what it was like for a while, so I walked in in silence and still sat on the lying floor in the outer room.
But in his heart, he thought that the world thought that King Chen committed suicide because of shame, or some people speculated that he Xu Yunqing had a personal vendetta.
But he told him that King Chen had been poisoned to death, a silent poison that would festering and die after three days of incubation.
This kind of strange and poisonous medicine, I am afraid that only the Miao people in the Western Regions or Yunnan will have it, it seems that there are hidden masters in the palace who can make poison.
Xu Yunqing's thoughts drifted for a while, and then she thought of He Mian'er, and secretly prayed in her heart, hoping that she could forgive herself after reading the letter she wrote.
But he didn't know that this letter would not reach the Lord under any circumstances.
At this moment, He Mian'er was driven by the third child to work as a coolie in the mountains.
"You pick mushrooms for me, master, I'm going to make chicken stew with mushrooms tonight, and no one can stop me." As he spoke, Yue Laosan walked deeper with his bow and arrows on his back.
At the same time, he didn't forget to turn around and warn He Mian'er: "Don't expect to escape, your hands and feet are tied." ”
But it turned out that Yue Laosan carried He Mian'er over and put it in a group of mushroom piles to ask her to pick them, but he was planning to catch a few pheasants and come back.
He Mian'er knew that she was like this, and she couldn't escape no matter what, after all, her hands and feet were tied, so she could only slowly squat on the ground and began to pick all the mushrooms she could get.
Suddenly, He Mian'er found a white mushroom, a piece of white flowers of this mushroom, but it was different from normal mushrooms, flower-like, and much larger than ordinary mushrooms.
He Mian'er knew that this mushroom was highly poisonous. She was able to recognize this mushroom because she lived in the suburbs of Beijing before, and some neighbors were greedy for cheapness, so they went to the suburbs to pick up this poisonous mushroom and eat it home.
He Mian'er quietly held this mushroom in her hand and mixed it with other mushrooms.
At this point, He Mian'er only felt that her heart was pounding. As he was thinking about it, he felt that someone behind him suddenly grabbed his mouth and threw himself to the ground.
He Mian'er suddenly panicked, struggling desperately but unable to break free. His mouth was tightly covered, and he couldn't call for help. Mushrooms have long been scattered elsewhere.
He Mian'er recognized that the person who came was the thin dick who had been coveting herself. Although she was extremely panicked, she had also expected this situation, and even this scene had been simulated countless times in her mind.
She planned to pretend to struggle a few times first, fainted, and when the man wanted to do that and was defenseless, she found the opportunity to kill with the golden hairpin in her hand.
Thinking of this, He Mian'er quietly clenched the golden hairpin in her sleeve, intending to stop struggling and pretend to be unconscious.
But I heard a person behind me exclaim: "Do you have a hole in your brain?" "It turned out to be Yue Laosan, who had just left.
Seeing this, the thin second child let go of He Mian'er's hand, got up quickly, and begged bitterly: "Third child, don't tell the boss, I will follow you whatever you want." ”
Na Yue Laosan was holding a dead pheasant in his hand, and there was also an arrow with rough workmanship stuck in it. He handed it over and said, "You are so cowardly that you actually take the boss's words as a deaf ear." ”
He has always been suppressed by this person, and if it is not easy for him to have a chance to act prestigiously, he will not let go of this opportunity easily.
The thin second child had already respectfully taken the dead pheasant, and heard the third Yue instruct: "You go and clean up the dead chicken first, and boil a big pot of water for me." Master, I'm going to eat chicken stewed mushrooms tonight, do you hear? ”
The thin second child nodded again and again, and said, "Make sure you are satisfied," and he slipped away with the pheasant first.
Yue Laosan looked at He Mian'er with some puzzlement, scratched his head suspiciously, and said, "What are you good about, this second child is also a ghost, and he doesn't have roast chicken." ”
This frightened He Mian'er, and when Yue Laosan saw it, he immediately yelled at He Mian'er: "Pick up all the mushrooms, I'll carry you back." Lao Tzu is going to starve to death. ”
He Mian'er had already stood up, and in a panic she packed up all the mushrooms she had just picked and put them on the corners of her clothes, but she didn't know in her heart that the poisonous mushrooms were not put in.
Yue Laosan had already carried He Mian'er impatiently, he was able to catch the handle of the second child this time, and he also caught the pheasant, and he could eat meat, and he was very happy in his heart. At the moment, he hummed a little song and walked back.
He Mian'er breathed a sigh of relief, no matter how rough this Yue Lao San was, it was much better than the second demon demon, and he was at ease when he stayed with him.
