Chapter VII Scientific Expedition
"The second son is good." Ye Lanqiao retracted his gaze, returned to his previous unhurried attitude, bowed his head and saluted.
Chu Feiye's eyes grew with a smile in his eyes, and he hugged his fists in return: "The fifth girl is polite." ”
Ye Lanqiao noticed the smile in Chu Feiye's eyes, and couldn't help but glare at him, smiling, what's so funny!
What happened on the boat that day, Ye Lanqiao and Qiao Yufei both chose to shut up, as for Ye Ruqiao, Ye Lanqiao pretended to say a few words inadvertently, and Ye Ruqiao, who was scared, didn't want to publicize much.
So at this time, Ye Lanqiao was a little nervous, in case Chu Feiye mentioned it in passing, wouldn't this matter be known to the family?
"Fifth sister, what's in this box?"
Ye Lingtian's words upset the little Jiujiu in Ye Lanqiao's heart, she took her eyes off Chu Feiye and spoke: "This is the pen and ink given by my grandfather, I want to ask the second brother, can I put this in the box when I go back." Although it was given by my grandfather, it was better for the second brother to use it. ”
Ye Lingtian looked at the fine ink block in the box and nodded: "Grandfather gave it is naturally good, and when I go back to the examination room, I will use this." ”
"That's good." Ye Lanqiao smiled and carefully put away the ink block.
"Fifth sister, you are so careful, the second brother doesn't know how to thank you." Ye Lingtian looked at Ye Lanqiao, his tone was gentle, and his eyes were full of gratitude.
"We are brothers and sisters, don't say thank you or not." The smile on the corner of Ye Lanqiao's mouth became brighter, when she was a child, she liked to run around the house behind Ye Lingtian the most, sometimes she was wronged, and Ye Lingtian came to comfort her. Ye Lingtian is good to his younger sister, and Ye Lanqiao also wants to be good to this second brother.
"Now that the words have been brought, I'll go first. May the title of the second son of Ye be named on the gold list and win! Chu Feiye saw that the hour was not early, so he said goodbye.
"Fifth sister, I still have to go to the pedant, please send me a gift to the second son of Chu." Ye Lingtian returned the salute with his fists, turned his head and said to Ye Lanqiao.
"Of course." Ye Lanqiao readily agreed, she used to represent the guests sent by her grandfather and grandmother, and she was also handy with this kind of thing.
The two walked on the verandah one after the other, silent all the way. Ye Lanqiao saw that Chu Feiye didn't have a little attendant or anything beside him, so he cleared his throat and said, "Thank you for saving me that day." ”
Chu Feiye stopped, turned around and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Looking at what the fifth girl meant just now, I thought you forgot what happened that day." ”
Ye Lanqiao's cheeks were hot: "This ...... The reason why I didn't thank you as soon as we met was because the events of that day were too dangerous, and I was afraid that my family would know about it......"
Chu Feiye made a look of sudden realization: "I see." The five girls are so courageous, ordinary women encounter that kind of thing, I'm afraid they have already been scared, unlike the five girls, you can still think about this layer. ”
Ye Lanqiao was stunned, was it? Did you act too calm?
"The second son laughed." Ye Lanqiao smiled slightly and ended the topic early.
When he arrived at the door, when Ye Lanqiao was about to turn around, Chu Feiye spoke: "Since the fifth girl is unwilling to let her family know about that incident, then she will order her to go down and not let the people under her go out and talk nonsense." ”
Ye Lanqiao turned around and raised his eyebrows: "The second son has already done this, why bother to tell me again?" ”
"Oh?" Chu Feiye's eyes lit up, and his tone was full of smiles.
Ye Lanqiao resisted the urge to roll his eyes and spoke: "The second son didn't say anything in front of my second brother, I guess I already knew it in my heart, plus no one outside has been talking about that matter since this period of time, I think it was ordered by you, second son." ”
Ye Lanqiao doesn't like this kind of conversation you guess and I guess, especially Chu Feiye's eyes, although Ye Lanqiao doesn't hate it, but he doesn't dare to look at it directly, it is like an unfathomable secluded pool of water, which will be swallowed if he is not careful.
In the end, he is also his savior, Ye Lanqiao maintained the greatest respect, and after speaking, he turned sideways and saluted, turned around and walked into the door.
Before Chu Feiye's words of "the fifth girl is really smart" could be said, he saw Ye Lanqiao enter the gate, he stood in place and was stunned, then smiled dumbly, raised his hand and scratched his head, and turned to leave.
"Childe, why are you so happy smiling?" Lin Qi, the little guy who watched the horse for Chu Feiye, grinned when he saw Chu Feiye from afar, and couldn't help but ask.
Chu Feiye took the horsewhip, grabbed the saddle with both hands, jumped up neatly, and landed firmly on the horse's back.
He glanced at Lynch: "I said a few words to the five girls of Ye Mansion, I think it's very interesting." ”
"Five girls?" Lin Qi was stunned for a moment, and scratched his head a little puzzled: "Everyone in Kyoto City knows that the four girls in Ye Mansion are bright and moving, but the fifth girl is a quiet and lonely and arrogant person, why does the son talk to her happily?" ”
"Really?" Chu Feiye remembered that he was standing on the pavilion just now, and he saw the bright girl with a bright face who came all the way over and smiled, Xijing may be true, but is it lonely? He didn't believe it.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day when Ye Lingtian was going to go to the scientific examination, in order to let his grandson go to the examination with peace of mind, although General Ye did not wait to see Wang Xiaoniang, he still nodded and promised to let Wang Xiaoniang send Ye Lingtian to the scientific examination.
Ye Lingtian confidently stepped into the examination room with the thousands of instructions of the whole family, and Ye Fu stood in front of the examination room for a long time before turning around and getting into the carriage and leaving.
"Lan'er, you have prepared well for your second brother's scientific expedition this time, you have to rest well in the past few days."
General Ye looked at his granddaughter sitting opposite and spoke.
"I don't work hard grandfather." Ye Lanqiao breathed a sigh of relief, and only hoped that the little things he had done could make the second brother live more comfortably in the examination room for the past few days.
"A few days ago, the Qiao family sent someone to send a post, Yu Fei's child has been promoted, and he wants to hold a banquet at home, you go back to prepare, and follow your grandmother over in three days."
"Grandfather, you just said that I should rest more, and this has sent me a new job." Ye Lanqiao said pitifully with a bitter face.
She really wanted to sleep for three days and three nights, and she didn't want to go to any Rausch family dinner.
Old General Ye stroked his beard and laughed a few times, his eyes were full of kindness: "Grandfather knows that you are lazy again, I promise you, after this incident, I will let you rest for a while." Besides, Yu Fei is not an outsider, if you go to Qiao's house, Qiao's family will not be tired of you. ”
Ye Lanqiao tugged at the corners of his stiff mouth and nodded slowly: "I listened to my grandfather." ”
After returning to Ye's Mansion, Ye Lanqiao followed his grandfather's instructions and took Huixiang to the treasury, and searched for a long time before choosing a congratulatory gift for Qiao Yufei.
Ye Lanqiao twisted his waist on the spot and spoke: "I think this congratulatory gift Qiao Gongzi must like it, and there are also rows of noodles when you take it out, Huixiang, that's it." ”
Huixiang looked at the phoenix-patterned lingzhi Cheng mud inkstone in her hand: "The gift chosen by the girl, even if it is a piece of mud, Qiao Gongzi will definitely like it." ”
Ye Lanqiao glared at Huixiang, and when the two wrapped up their things and were about to turn around and go out, they saw Shen's mother running over in a hurry:
"Oh no, five girls! The old general is sick! ”
"Sick? Shen's mother, are you saying that your grandfather is sick? Ye Lanqiao thought that he had heard it wrong, he was fine during the day, why did he get sick this time?
"This old slave doesn't know, but now the old lady is very anxious, and I ask the fifth girl to come over quickly and comfort the old lady."
"Okay, I'll go over here." Ye Lanqiao asked Huixiang to send the things back, and followed Shen's mother to Wanshoutang.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he met Ye Lin, Ye Ruqiao and Wang Xiaoniang, who also rushed over, Ye Lanqiao hurriedly said hello, and followed Ye Lin in.
Between them, General Ye was lying on the bed, his eyes were closed, his brows were tightly locked, and he seemed to be in pain, while Old Madam Ye was sitting on the side, coughing incessantly, wiping her tears with a handkerchief.
Ye Lanqiao's heart ached, and she stepped forward: "Grandmother, don't be sad, but be careful of your body." Imperial Physician Zhao, what's wrong with grandfather? ”
In the evening, General Ye felt a little unwell, and he didn't take it to heart, but after dinner, General Ye couldn't stand it anymore, and when Mrs. Ye saw this, she hurriedly took a sign and asked people to go to the palace to invite Imperial Doctor Zhao over, and when Imperial Doctor Zhao rushed over, General Ye Lao was already unconscious.
"Fifth girl, the old general suddenly had a high fever, and he fainted, but I have already applied needles to the old general to reduce the fever, and now he is fine."
Ye Lanqiao knelt in front of the bed, stretched out his hand and probed General Ye's forehead, which was indeed a little hot.
"It's so decent, how can the fever be so serious. My grandfather has always been healthy, but this is the first time that this symptom has occurred, and I should ask Imperial Doctor Zhao to examine it carefully. ”
After Imperial Physician Zhao said that General Ye was fine, Ye Lin was obviously relieved, but Ye Lanqiao continued to say this, which made Ye Lin a little unhappy:
"Lan'er, Imperial Physician Zhao is an old man in the palace, and his medical skills are excellent, how can you be so rude, are you questioning Imperial Physician Zhao's medical skills?"
Ye Lanqiao glanced up at Ye Lin, and lowered her head silently, she didn't believe in Imperial Doctor Zhao's medical skills, but the person who was originally healthy suddenly fell ill, and Ye Lanqiao said this just in case.
In ancient times, there was no CT or X-ray or anything, what if my grandfather had a serious illness and couldn't see it for the time being?
"Lord Ye, it's okay, the five girls are also filial." Imperial Physician Zhao smiled kindly and patiently explained: "I understand the worries in the hearts of the five girls, don't worry, I have carefully checked the pulse for the old general, it's not a big deal, most of the elderly people are like this, just take care of it." ”
"Then there is Imperial Doctor Lao Zhao." Ye Lanqiao raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes, got up and bowed to Imperial Doctor Zhao, and the grievances and worries in his heart only turned into a heavy please.
