"If you have one or two hundred Wen, you can buy several large and small." Liu Gengsheng knew that the two of them didn't know the market in the county, so he said enthusiastically.
"Then I'll bother Brother Liu." Du Mei grabbed two handfuls of copper coins and put them in Du Shu's pocket, and there were more than 100 yuan.
"Enough, enough." Du Shu covered his pocket and shook his head again and again.
"Okay, you go around with Brother Liu, and when you get to Shen, go and see if the four have sold out the duck eggs. I'm going out for something and I'll be back in a minute. Du Mei didn't want Du Shu to worry, so he didn't tell the truth.
"I'll accompany you, my aunt asked me to come with you." Du Shu raised his eyes to look at Du Mei and said a little uneasily.
"I just went to buy some silk thread and plain veils and went back to embroidery, nothing serious." Du Mei gave him a reassuring look.
Du Shu blushed, Du Mei bought some girls' things, and he followed along, inevitably embarrassed.
"Ah, Brother Tree, don't mother-in-law. Let's go, let's go. Liu Gengsheng was about to go out for a walk, so he forcibly pulled Du Shu and walked out.
"Turn around, still waiting here!" Du Shu was dragged away by Liu Gengsheng, and turned back to Du Mei uneasily.
"Got it." Du Mei smiled and waved at him.
Out of the Song Mansion, Du Mei walked straight to the mouth of the alley, and Yang Bo had already driven the carriage to wait for her there.
Du Mei followed Yang Bo into the courtyard, and saw a man shirtless, facing the house, kneeling straight on the bluestone slab. He probably knelt for a long time, the skin from the back of his head to his waist was sunburned red, shining brightly, although the sun was slanting a little westward, and there were mottled shadows on his head, but his back was still dripping with dense beads of sweat, and the black waistband of his pants was soaked with sweat, and a large part of the wet underneath was obviously dried by the sun, glowing with a little white salt frost.
"You bastard, why are you kneeling here!" Yang Bo passed by him and scolded in a low voice.
Hearing the voice, the man raised his head, and at this time he met the inquiring eyes cast by Du Mei, and he immediately looked at her viciously with his eyes in the eyes.
Du Mei was stared at by his wolf-like gaze, and his heart sank, the hairs on his back instantly stood upside down, and the blood in his whole body flowed to his head.
"Isn't this Murong Xi's chauffeur? Why does he look at me so hatefully? Du Mei walked behind Yang Bo, puzzled in his heart. She thought so, but she didn't dare to look back at him again, only to feel that his gaze was like two raging fires, and they were about to set her back on fire.
"Girl, go in, the young master has been waiting for you for a long time." Yang Bo pushed open the door, but didn't go in, only bowed down to invite Du Mei.
"Okay then, thank you Uncle Yang." Dumay stepped over the threshold and stood behind the closed door.
I only heard Yang Bo outside take a few steps, lowered his voice and said, "What are you doing this?" I thought that the young master really wouldn't punish you! ”
"If it weren't for this girl to find out what Bian Xilai was, with me by her side, where would the young sect master be plotted by someone, suffer so much, and suffer such a big crime!" The kneeling man's voice was hoarse, as if he was extremely suppressed from the anger in his heart.
"Be quiet!" Yang Bo kicked him in the leg.
Du Mei vaguely heard Bian Xilai's three words, and was surprised in her heart. Murong Xi is good at checking what he does, and besides, he is a laze color blank all day long, and he doesn't check the beautiful women, but has the leisure time to check a man, which is really a strange thing.
"Bang dang!" There was a crisp sound in the room, like the sound of porcelain breaking. This startled Du Mei, and the two outside didn't dare to say a word.
"Yan Mo, if you want to be idle, go and greet the living dead, within an hour, if you can't ask why, I will immediately report to the young master and punish you for your mistakes and today's crime of disobedience!" Yang Bo deliberately raised his voice and scolded the man kneeling on the ground.
"Amei, are you here?" An extremely weak male voice reached Du May's ears. Dumay inexplicably fought a cold war.
"Murong Xi, how are you today?" I caught a glimpse of the two people outside, and it was Yang Bo who dragged Yan Mo away. Dumay stepped into the room.
"Huh!" Du Mei raised her eyes to look at Murong Xi on the bed, and let out an unexpected exclamation.
I saw Murong Xi lying on his side, his eyes slightly closed, his face flushed, and beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, which was clearly a sign of heat! It stands to reason that taking Yu Jitang's wound medicine internally and externally, and then drinking the decoction, should not be like this.
Du Mei was worried about his injury, and was anxious, so he walked to his bed in two or three steps, and touched his forehead with his hand, and the tentacles were hot.
"Murong Xi, Murong Xi, wake up, I'll send you to Doctor Zhong." Du Mei pushed him, but Murong Xi seemed to be asleep, and he couldn't hear her call at all.
"Uncle Yang......" Du Mei was in a hurry, and he turned around to call someone. If she cures Murong Xi badly, Yan Mo shouldn't eat her raw.
Du Mei's voice was not fully released, but her hands were pulled by someone, her body was completely defenseless, and she fell into a warm embrace at once, Murong Xi looked at her condescendingly with narrow fox eyes, and said jokingly: "Doctor Du, what kind of therapy are you?" ”
"You...... You ......" Du Mei was extremely angry, she wanted to get out of his arms, but her hands were held by Murong Xi, and she could only struggle in vain.
"Lie down with me for a while, Ame." Murong Xi rested his chin on the top of Du Mei's head and rubbed it.
"Ahh Color embryo! Du Mei screamed with a crying voice, caught off guard, and destroyed Murong Xi's little beauty.
"Grandma, don't cry, if they hear it, they still think I'm wrong with you." Murong Xi had already let go of Du Mei, but no matter how many good things he said, Du Mei just sat at the table and cried without stopping with his back on his back, his thin shoulders shrugged and shrugged, looking distressing.
"Please, don't cry, you cry so much that my back hurts." Murong Xi continued to say with a bitter face.
After a while, Murong Xi said again: "I swear that I will never tease you again." Amei, change my dressing quickly, my back is so itchy. ”
He didn't look like he was pretending this time, he tried his best to scratch the wound on his back, but because of the pain, his arm couldn't go around.
"Hmph, I should make you suffer!" Du Mei got up from the table and walked over to him.
"You, you, you......" This time it was Murong Xi's turn to widen his eyes, Du Mei's face was not shocked, where did he look like he had cried!
"Why, only you teased me five times, but you didn't want me to treat others in the way of others?" Du Mei looked at his surprise with satisfaction and pouted.
"You...... Attaboy! Hurry up and change my dressing. Murong Xi's back was extremely itchy, as if ten thousand ants were crawling, so he had to grit his teeth and lose the battle.
"Tell you to pretend to be sick and scare me! Get on your stomach. The room was full of utensils, and although Du Mei was angry with him, she was a healer after all, and she carefully washed away his ointment.
"Why is it so itchy? You scratch me. Murong Xi said with a frown.
"It's just wound healing, how can you be so squeamish." Du Mei rolled his eyes, but still used his fingers to gently touch him around the wound.
The wound on his back was a little hot~ swollen, Du Mei's fingertips were soft and cool, Murong Xi squinted, and his face was comfortably satisfied. Naturally, he didn't dare to let Du Mei see it.
"Okay, Ming'er, I'll change your medicine again, and it'll be fine." Du Mei reapplied the ointment to him, took the pulse again, and said.
"I'm hurt like this, you're going to come three times?" Murong Xi muttered dissatisfiedly.
"I see you're in good spirits, and I won't be able to use it tomorrow." Du Mei glared at him angrily.
"I'm a patient, you have pity on me." Murong Xi wrinkled his face into a bun and said to Du Mei flatteringly.
"Hey, I'm very busy every day, how can I compare with you, a rich idler, every day." Du Mei cleaned up the cotton yarn and leftovers on the ground.
"I know you're selling duck eggs on South Street today." Murong Xi turned sideways and looked at Du Mei fixedly.
This girl is smart and witty, more generous and decent than the ordinary family's small jasper, and more innocent than the boudoir lady of the high-ranking family, in short, she is a very interesting person.
"How do you know? It must have been Uncle Yang who told you, right? "Du Mei hasn't seen anyone else in this house, only one Uncle Yang.
"You can toss it with peace of mind, I will keep you safe!" Murong Xi looked at her with a flickering gaze and muttered softly, a smile on his face that bewildered all beings.
"What do you say?" Du Mei was flickered by his smile and didn't listen to it.
"Nothing? It's so hot, do you want to sleep with me? Murong Xi moved his body in, and really made a seat.
"Phew, you pervert!" Du Mei knew that he wanted to play tricks on her again, so he scolded.
"Haha...... Yes! Murong Xi likes to tease her like this, seeing that Du Mei is ashamed and angry, he laughs happily, but he pulls the wound and hurts.
"It's time for me to go, you take it easy and break open the wound, and you'll be in big trouble." Du Mei looked at him with disgust, and without waiting for him to reply, he raised his feet and left.
"Hey, remember to come tomorrow, I'll wait for you to eat!" Murong Xi chased after her.
Du Mei saw that it was still early, so he did not return to the Song Mansion, but went to South Street to look for Du Shu. In the distance, Liu Gengsheng was walking with Du Shu, probably getting acquainted, the two talked and laughed, but they had nothing in their hands.
"Didn't buy a trap?" Du Mei asked suspiciously.
"The blacksmith shop doesn't have what the tree brothers want, so if it's made now, Ming'er can get it." Liu Gengsheng said with a smile.
"I was afraid that I would miss this hour, so I didn't wait." Du Shu rubbed his hands.
"It's okay, isn't that just right, let's go and see how it sells." Du Mei led the way, followed by Du Shu and Liu Gengsheng.
Chen's shopkeeper's shop has a good market, it is the first in the east, and he hung up a sign in a conspicuous place at the door of the shop early in the morning, with five big characters on it: "Duck Eggs of the Locust Exterminator".
After yesterday's lawsuit, people spread the word of mouth, which is equivalent to making a free advertisement for Du Mei's duck eggs, women always love to join in the fun, like to go to the street in groups of three or five with baskets to buy, see the big signboard of the shopkeeper Chen, how can there be no reason not to go in to see, they saw such a good duck egg for the first time, and soon snatched it up.
The fat shopkeeper of the rice store saw the people coming and going in the grocery store diagonally opposite, and he was in a hurry, so he hurriedly sent his men to stand on the street with duck eggs in their hands, shouting and selling.
