I thought I was the same person as myself, but I suddenly found that the other party had surpassed me for a long time, and it was uncomfortable.

Qiu Niang looked at the Tian family, and even thought that it was not she, who was the elder sister, who quietly supported Qi Yunniang behind their backs, so that she could afford to buy a house in an instant!

Qiu Niang's eyes became very subtle, Qi Yunshu was extremely acute, and soon saw that she might not be as happy for her as she imagined, when even skipped this topic and looked at a young scholar sitting at the counter, she asked:

"This is ......"

He was sitting at the counter, naturally he couldn't be a guest, but she hadn't seen him before, but she still remembered that Tian had a baby son who went to the capital to take the exam, and he should indeed finish the exam when he calculated the date.

If you win, you will naturally stay in Beijing and ride a horse for a day to see all the good smallpox...... If I don't hit it, this time return trip is just right.

Tian's eyebrows were a little lonely, and he pointed to the young scholar and said, "This is my son Wenda, Wenda, come and see Yun Niang!" ”

Zhao Wenda was wearing a cyan Confucian shirt, he was handsome and gentle, and he was sitting on the edge of the counter as if he was keeping accounts, but he stood up when he heard the greeting of his mother.

Seeing that Qi Yunshu's silhouette was just a woman dressed as a woman in ordinary cloth clothes, he was not in the mood to greet him, he responded lightly, and lowered his head boredly, not interested in Tian's greeting behind.

"Hey, this kid!" Tian felt a little embarrassed, and wanted to talk to him a few words, but thinking that he was full of confidence when he went to Beijing to take the exam this time, but in the end he returned with a feather, so that he came back for two days, and he has been unhappy, and he couldn't help but feel soft, and pulled Qi Yunshu to explain embarrassedly: "Hey, Yun Niang, Wenda ...... him"

Needless to say, Qi Yunshu already understood, and he knew that he hadn't been admitted by looking at Zhao Wenda's appearance.

Try to empathize, this Beijing will take the exam is the same as the university entrance examination back then, the admission soared, and if you can't pass the exam, you have to wait three years to start again.

It is conceivable how hard this incident hit Zhao Wenda, a scholar.

So she doesn't need Tian to explain more, she understands this feeling, at this moment, as Tian's friend, she only hopes that Zhao Wenda can cheer up as soon as possible, work hard to review and devote himself to new learning.

The so-called endless hard work in the sea of learning, this is actually one-sided, not only is it difficult to learn, but there is actually nothing easy in this world!

Qi Yunshu didn't think about it and didn't take it to heart, she went into the kitchen by herself, and soon the menu came in, and someone was already ordering.

As soon as she got busy, Qi Yunshu couldn't think of anything, and worked hard, otherwise how could she be worthy of the help and trust that Tian gave her!

By noon, the sun had gone to the west, and she could rest for a while, and soon the afternoon diners would come around.

She looked out the window, the biggest advantage of this kitchen is that there is a window with a very good line of sight, as long as you push the carved prism window open, you can see the scenery on the street, all kinds of people come and go, and watching the scenery every day is also one of her great pastimes and rest.

But those are other people's business, and it has nothing to do with her, she is just in charge of taking a look.

But today is a little different from usual, she actually saw Tian's son Zhao Wenda, the key is that he is holding a scroll in his hand, but his expression is panicked, and if he looks closely, it seems that there is something hidden in the scroll.

Qi Yunshu's gaze subconsciously chased his whereabouts.

Turning the street in front and disappearing, she tried hard to remember for a long time, but when she finished cooking a dish and went to see it, she couldn't remember the direction where Zhao Wenda wen's head.

There is no way, road blindness and road idiocy are this virtue.

And the business was so good in the evening, Qi Yunshu didn't have too much time to dwell on these things, and now that their home is close to here, she didn't ask to go home early from work, but insisted on going home until the last table of guests left.

It was dark, and Qi Yunshu stood on the steps at the door waiting for Zhao Jing to pick her up.

It's not that she doesn't want to go home immediately, it's that she can't find her way home, and in order to ensure that she doesn't get lost, she can only choose to wait.

As soon as Zhao Jing arrived, the two of them hadn't taken two steps before they saw Zhao Jing pull her into a small alley in front of the store.

Qi Yunshu was stunned for a moment and was about to ask, but Zhao Wenda's figure appeared before meeting.

At this time, he was already wearing the scholar's iconic cyan Confucian shirt and a Confucian hat, and he was a scholar.

She explained in a low voice that this person was Zhao Wenda, the son of the Tian family who came back from the exam in the capital.

"A loser is mixed with a second-rate person in a gambling house?" Zhao Jing's eyes were filled with deep meaning.

"You know him?" Qi Yunshu looked at the thief-eyed man beside Zhao Wenda, his face puzzled.

"The two lepers, who are frequent customers of Jixiang Casino, are also well-known gangsters on this street!" Zhao Jing had a very bad impression of the two lepers, so he only added a little bit and didn't want to mention more.

Qi Yunshu thought of Zhao Wenda's appearance of holding a scroll today, where did he get the money to go to the gambling house?

And he reads so well, why did he suddenly get there?

The two of them couldn't help but think about it, it was already dark, they should go back, otherwise it would be a curfew in the town when it was later!

Carrying the dishes packed back, the three of them ate some hastily, and went back to their rooms, Zhao Jing covered his chest, as if he suddenly remembered, and said, "What kind of medicine did the lady prepare last night?" "The effect seems to be excellent!

Some doctors say it is poisonous, some doctors say it is a disease brought from the mother's womb, and now even he doesn't know what the root of the disease is.

But what he remembers most deeply is that once the illness occurs, cough and fever can last for at least three days and three nights.

In the days of illness, he will be like a wasted man.

But this time he had a seizure, first he took medicine, which worked at the time, but it relapsed at the beginning of the night, and the impression left in his mind later was not clear.

But he vaguely remembered that the lady had said that she would feed him medicine, so he was curious about what kind of medicine she gave him, and it worked so well.

"Ah...... Medicine, this ...... That's it! Qi Yunshu took out a bottle from his arms.

Zhao Jing stared at it seriously, with a helpless expression: "This is to cure the wind and cold!" ”

Qi Yunshu was still going to take it in her arms, but Zhao Jing held her hand: "Isn't the lady willing to say it?" ”

Qi Yunshu's heart tightened suddenly, and the medicine ...... That medicine...... If she remembers correctly, she said that she was going to get him medicine, but when she was in a hurry to crawl past him to get medicine, he stopped her, and then the two of them were doing that and that, where did she feed him!

So she guessed that Zhao Jing's cold illness was probably due to the fact that the two of them retreated after the two of them, but how could she say this?

Not to mention whether Zhao Jingxin believes it or not, even she herself doesn't want to tell him, but wants to treat it as a secret she wants to guard!

Seeing that Zhao Jing recognized the truth, she stabilized her mind and took out the medicine bottle she had given to Zhao Jing from her arms.

"Is that it?" Zhao Jing was a little surprised, he clearly remembered that the effect of this medicine was also time-sensitive.

"Hmmm! I don't believe it, anyway, I don't know why the two times are different! Qi Yunshu simply turned her head and climbed straight into bed to sleep, ignoring him no more.

Zhao Jing studied it, and people say that they have become a doctor after a long illness, but they are just talking, and there are many things as broad and profound as medical skills, how many of them can really be self-taught?

At most, he knows some pharmacology, and he can't see the medicine that has been boiled into pills like this.

Looking at Yun Niang's unfamiliar back, he was not in a hurry, anyway, they had been together for a long time, and he would reveal the secret one day.

When I got up the next day, it was thundering and raining in the sky.

Nancheng Town is a small town, the drainage ditch is not very good, once it rains, especially the continuous majestic rain, after that heavy rain, the road will accumulate a lot of water, and in such weather many people will not choose to go out, and the taste of the building directly suspended the business at noon.

Qi Yunshu waited until noon before going out.

As soon as he walked, he saw a young man with a slight bow.

She didn't pay attention at first, but after looking at it again, it became more and more familiar, and she just wanted to call out to him, but she saw him turn into the alley on the side.

Siping Lane?

Qi Yunshu passed through his mind for a moment, and Zhao Jing had already come out behind him.

Hearing the name in her mouth, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows: "Who just went to Siping Lane?" ”

"If I'm not mistaken, it seems to be Aunt Tian's son Zhao Wenda!" Qi Yunshu blinked her eyes and tried to remember the young man in the cyan Confucian shirt just now.

Zhao Jing's eyebrows wrinkled deeper and deeper, and he suddenly said, "The lady had better remind Aunt Tian to take a good look at him!" ”

Qi Yunshu couldn't understand, Zhao Jing thought that she had no concept of the street, and saw that it was still early in the day, so he pulled her towards Siping Alley.

The alleys inside are very narrow, and there is a lot of noise when you go, and here and there are curtains made of burlap, a curtain separating the inside and outside worlds.

"Big ...... Big, I'm ...... big."

"Small, small, small, fast, fast......"

"Ahh......h

"Hahaha, I won again, I can't stop it when I get lucky!"

……

Hearing the unfamiliar but familiar words, Qi Yunshu's eyes widened and he suddenly realized.

It turned out that there were such things operating in these Siping alleys, no wonder Zhao Jing's face was so ugly.

You must know that gathering people to gamble in the Great Liang Dynasty is also against the laws of the Great Liang, but later this trend prevailed, and everyone secretly opened underground gambling houses, which could not be cured no matter how it was governed.

As soon as the boss saw that there was no way, he didn't care about it at all, and later it directly developed into a collusion between officials and businessmen to benefit each other.

Nowadays, this small southern town is also not held accountable by the people.

However, if you can't control these second-rate gangsters, the imperial court still punishes the gentlemen who participate in gambling and Bo very severely.

Once someone finds out that a scholar is involved in these things, then the fame of his head will be cut off at the least, and the sentence will be exile at the worst.

This Zhao Wenda is a person who has passed the township test, even if he loses the test for a while, but it is nothing to prepare for another three years, how can he be willing to fall into the life here!

Qi Yunshu's brows furrowed.

She said no, she had to go and tell Aunt Tian immediately, she had to take care of him!

Zhao Jing didn't stop her, this problem is serious!

The two of them hurried to the restaurant, it was still drizzling outside at the moment, there were not many customers in the store, only two tables of sparse pulling, Qi Yunshu saw that he was not busy, so he pulled Tian to the side, brewed his emotions and was about to speak, but suddenly heard a loud noise at the door.

"This is the original flavor building...... Yes, shopkeeper, come out, come out ......"

Qi Yunshu's words came to his lips and was directly frightened back by these few rough howls, and at the same time, a trace of ominous premonition rose in his heart!
