Chapter 31: Surprise
As soon as Tao'er came back, Tong Jiaqi pulled her into the house and closed the door.
"How? What did the doctor say? Is there a problem with the medicine? A series of questions were thrown, and Tong Jiaqi stared at Tao'er with glowing eyes.
Momo's reaction was a little strange, she frowned, as if she didn't hear her, her thin thrush crouched slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.
Tong Jiaqi raised her hand and patted her on the head: "Hey! What do you ask? β
"Oops!"
Peach was in pain, came back to her senses, and reached out to touch her head.
"What are you in a daze!" Tong Jiaqi frowned and glared at her and said.
"Huh? Oh, no, no problem, and, and, ......" Momo stammered, glanced at her several times, and stopped talking.
"And what?" Tong Jiaqi waited for her to speak.
Momo sighed.
"And the doctor asked me ......why I bought the formula," she said with a strange expression.
When I thought of the old doctor, who was over half a hundred years old at that time, his eyes lit up, and he stared at her firmly with fiery eyes...... The ointment in her hand, Tao'er couldn't help but tremble, instinctively grabbed the ointment in her hand, and made a posture of being ready to escape at any time.
"Buy the formula? What recipe to buy? Tong Jiaqi looked at her with some puzzlement, and after thinking of something, a trace of deep meaning appeared in her eyes, "You have a private formula?" β
The expression looked like she was saying that she had private money.
Momo's face was depressed.
"No, it's not me." She hurriedly waved her hand to explain, "It's not to buy my formula, it's to buy Miss Seven's formula, to buy the formula of this ointment!" β
"Her recipe?" Tong Jiaqi lowered her head in surprise, and her eyes fell on the ointment that Tao'er had been grabbing until now, "So this ointment she gave me is really a good thing?" "Otherwise, how could it be worth all the doctors who wanted to spend money on the formula of this ointment?
Tao'er nodded decisively and said, "What a good thing!" "So good that she was almost caught by the doctor, and she couldn't come back!
It's so dangerous!
"What are you doing in a daze! Hurry up and wipe it for me! β
Tong Jiaqi snatched the ointment from Tao'er's hand, sat down in front of the dressing mirror, and prepared to apply the medicine without washing her hands.
Tao'er hurriedly rushed over to stop her: "Eh, Miss Eh, wait!" You haven't washed your hands yet! Miss Seven said that you have to clean your face and hands before taking medicine! Otherwise, the effectiveness of the medicine will be greatly reduced. β
Tong Jiaqi immediately stopped his movements when he heard this: "Then you go and fetch water!" β
β¦β¦
Seven days later, Master Tong San came back with his wife and children.
When they arrived, Tong Jiayan was entertaining Tong Jiaqi in his room.
These days, Tong Jiaqi will come to Qingfeng Yuan every day, and often stay in the afternoon.
Not only were the people in the other rooms curious, but even the eldest lady herself couldn't help but stop the eldest daughter who was going to Qingfeng Garden and said strangely: "What do you do when you go to Qingfeng Garden every day?" Isn't it a bad idea to get revenge? β
Tong Jiaqi said a little unhappily: "What a bad idea?" Am I that stingy! Mother, how can you look at me like that? Can't I just go over and look for someone to talk to and eat snacks? β
The eldest lady looked at Tong Jiaqi with an expression of "what do you say".
Tong Jiaqi didn't bother to explain: "Oh, I won't tell you!" I definitely wasn't thinking of any bad ideas anyway. Mother, I'm busy, I won't tell you, I'll go first. β
After saying that, no matter how the eldest lady called her from behind, she ran out.
β¦β¦
"Miss, it's the third cup, this cup is over, you can't drink it again today." Tao'er kept Tong Jiayan's advice in mind and obediently became a good counter.
Tong Jiaqi: "......"
After drinking the third cup of medicinal tea, Tong Jiaqi put down the teacup, glanced at Tao'er at the flying knife, gritted her teeth and said, "I know." β
Tong Jiayan looked at the master and servant and smiled lightly.
Qingju came in with a plate of pastries from outside, crossed Tong Jiaqi, walked to Tong Jiayan's side, and said softly: "Miss, the red bean roll has been made, and the slave maid made it according to the method you said, can you try the taste?" β
Tong Jiayan picked up a piece and tasted a small bite.
"The sweetness is already there, but the red bean aroma is covered, so you can try to put less sugar next time." Tong Jiayan commented seriously.
Qingju nodded instructively: "Slave and maid remember." β
Tong Jiaqi's gaze involuntarily fell on the delicate and attractive stack of red bean rolls.
"Give it to the third lady to taste." Tong Jiayan said to Qingju with a smile.
Qingju came to Tong Jiaqi with the pastry.
"Ahem." Tong Jiaqi cleared her throat, "It's not that I want to eat it, you have to invite me to taste it." β
Tong Jiayan nodded: "Yes, I want to invite you to taste." β
Tong Jiaqi quietly curled the corners of her mouth, her chin raised slightly, her orchid fingers curled, she proudly twisted up a piece of red bean roll, glanced at Tong Jiayan with slanted eyes, looked quite reluctant to open her mouth, and took a small bite.
Qingju, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
Contrived, too contrived!
Even Tao'er couldn't stand her young lady's behavior, so she pursed her mouth and turned her face.
Tong Jiayan just smiled lightly.
In her eyes, such Tong Jiaqi is at least much cuter than in her previous life. Although her behavior is sometimes a little naΓ―ve, at least she is very simple and direct, and everything is written on her face and goes straight to the point.
It's easy to get along with such a person without having to struggle to guess what he thinks.
Tong Jiaqi took a bite of the red bean roll, and couldn't help but take a second bite, and soon a whole piece of red bean roll was eaten by her, and finally she almost forgot the etiquette and wanted to lick her fingers.
"What did you just say? Can you pick out such a delicious red bean roll? β
Tong Jiaqi recalled her previous comment, it seemed that the negative component was greater than the affirmation, and she was a little incredulous.
"Within a radius of ten miles, I have never eaten a red bean roll that is more delicious than this!" She couldn't help but justify the red bean rolls she had just eaten, and by the way, she took the rest of the plate from Qingju's hand and held it in her arms.
Suddenly empty-handed Qingtang: "??? β
"If you like to eat, then I'll give you something to eat." Tong Jiayan smiled, "It's all for you, and there will be one tomorrow." β
Is this an invitation for her to come back tomorrow?
Tong Jiaqi couldn't help blushing, smiled softly at Tong Jiayan, and couldn't help but twist her ass awkwardly.
"Who, who's coming over tomorrow!" She choked uncomfortably, reached out and stroked her bangs, her fingers accidentally scratched the scars, and her hands were a little rough, which was a hard shell of knots.
Tong Jiayan said that this is the ointment in effect, and after the shell naturally falls off, the new meat that grows out will be exactly the same as the original skin, and there will be no traces.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel hot in her heart and full of anticipation.
