Chapter 48: Hope

After coming back next summer, Jiang Liuli directly asked her to go to her senior brother's room, the two hadn't seen each other for a long time, they should miss each other very much, but she knew that these two stuffy gourds would never say such a thing, even if they were happy in their hearts, they would not show it, which was also the reason why the two of them were obviously in love with each other, but they still didn't know each other's intentions stupidly.

After the senior brother came, Ming Xia was no longer his subordinate, but the senior brother's special maid, and she needed to be by her side all the time.

Jiang Liuli had no choice but to let the shopkeeper who came out of You Ziming* manage the hot pot restaurant, and be sure to send the account books to her for inspection every day.

Now it is a cold winter, there is an endless stream of people eating hot pot, and the business is so good every day that it is so good that you need to make an appointment in advance every time, whether it is an official eunuch or an ordinary person, they are all treated equally.

In the evening, Qin Mingyuan came to Yishui Pavilion, and after knowing that Jiang Liuli's senior brother was here, he didn't have much hope, whether he could heal the scar on Duan Ruoxi's face, he could only resign himself to fate.

At dinner, Jiang Liuli specially made his favorite meal for her senior brother, and asked Ming Xia to bring it in to eat with him, she knew her senior brother's habits, and would never eat with them, so she could only let him use it with Ming Xia in the room.

Although there were many people in Yishui Pavilion, they all stayed in their rooms to eat, and although Duan Ruoxi was willing to go out of the room, he was unwilling to remove the veil on his face, so he could only let her and Qin Mingyuan stay in the room to eat.

Yu Caiwei likes to dine with Jiang Liuli, she feels lonely when she eats alone, so she often comes to her room and eats with her.

After dinner, she went downstairs to see her brother, wanting to care about him, and apologize by the way, after all, she used a trick to attract him, and if you are wrong, you have to admit it first.

Just walked to the door of the room and wanted to knock on the door, but the door opened at this time, and Ming Xia was standing at the door with a shy face with dishes.

"Miss." When Ming Xia saw her, her face turned even redder, which made her have to wonder if her senior brother had done something to the simple-minded Ming Xia.

Jiang Liuli raised her eyebrows and looked at Ming Xia, who was leaving with the dishes as if she was running away, her gossip heart was blazing, and she was very interested in her senior brother's gossip.

She walked into the room and saw that he was carefully sorting out the herbs he had brought, and she couldn't help but laugh as she looked at the room covered with herbs, even if she liked it, she didn't have to take the herbs with her everywhere.

"Senior brother, what herbs do you like, just tell me, why bother to bring them all the way over." Jiang Liuli looked at him amusedly, and the whole room was filled with the smell of medicinal herbs.

"These are all medicinal herbs that I personally picked up in the mountains, can they be the same as the ones you bought?" He retorted coldly, and he knew from the tone that he was still angry.

"Senior brother, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have threatened you with the matter of next summer." She looked at him apologetically, knowing how important Ming Xia was to him, but she was used as a blackmail, which was really undeserved.

After hearing this, he suddenly threw down the medicinal herbs in his hand and looked at her coldly, the coldness in his eyes made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Jiang Liuli, I know very well how clever your methods are, but I didn't expect that you would also use those indiscriminate methods on me." There was deep disappointment in his eyes, he originally thought that the two had become brother and sister, but he didn't expect her to treat him like this.

Jiang Liuli saw the disappointment in his eyes, his heart jumped, it seems that he really did something wrong this time, he was smart but was mistaken by being smart, it was originally a very simple thing, but it was complicated by her, he was so good to her, even if there was no threat, as long as she said a word, no matter how reluctant she was, she would come to help her, she thought about his feelings for herself too simply.

"Senior brother, I'm sorry, I was really wrong this time." She stepped forward and gently hugged his waist, in this world, except for Yue Liuli, he is her dearest.

He saw Jiang Liuli coquettish to himself, and sighed helplessly, every time he was eaten to death by her, he was obviously a ruthless person, but he couldn't be ruthless to her, maybe he was too lonely, and he also thought about his relatives around him, relatives who existed like sisters.

"Mingxia is very important to me, she can't marry anyone but me, not even a joke." He reached out and hugged her, and said coldly.

"Got it." Jiang Liuli nodded honestly in his arms, and only by his side would he show his weak side.

In fact, in the letter she wrote to her senior brother, it was not a threat, at most it could only be regarded as a joke, she said that she would marry Ming Xia Xu to someone else, he knew that he would not do this, he was just talking, but he was still very angry, whether it was a joke or a threat, for him, it had already hurt him.

After Jiang Liuli coaxed his senior brother, he took him upstairs to see Duan Ruoxi's injury, although he was still reluctant on the surface, he still followed her upstairs.

"Gongzi Qin, this is my senior brother, Gong Changqing." Jiang Liuli introduced her senior brother to Qin Mingyuan.

"Doctor Gong, I'm so sorry for bothering you to come all the way to treat your fiancée below." Qin Mingyuan looked apologetically at the handsome and peerless man in front of him, feeling that his appearance was compared to him.

Gong Changqing looked at the man in front of him silently, he knew very well what his identity was, but he didn't expect that he would whisper to others for the sake of his fiancée, such a bearing and emotion really made him admire.

"Don't be in such a hurry to thank me, it's uncertain whether it will be cured or not." He said in a light tone, then walked past her and looked at the woman behind him.

"Take the veil off." He said to Duan Ruoxi, since he wants to treat his scars, he must look at the situation.

Duan Ruoxi looked at Jiang Liuli hesitantly, and then at Qin Mingyuan, seeing their eyes full of encouragement, he mustered up the courage to take off the veil and raised his head to let him see clearly.

"The wound is deep." Gong Changqing frowned and looked at her left cheek, such a deep wound, it was almost impossible to recover.

"Then senior brother, do you have a way?" Jiang Liuli looked at him nervously, afraid that he would ruthlessly spit out the impossible three words.

"Naturally, other people's medical skills cannot be cured." Gong Changqing didn't answer directly, but Jiang Liuli understood what he meant.

"Senior brother is no one else." Jiang Liuli smiled happily, since he was talking about someone else, he naturally did not represent himself, which showed that there was still hope.

"You're someone else, too." Gong Changqing turned his head to look at Jiang Liuli, this time with some pampering in his eyes, instead of the cold eyes in the past.

"How can my medical skills be compared to my senior brother." Jiang Liuli smiled helplessly, her medical skills can't get better in this life, so she can only stagnate like this.

"You really don't have much talent in medical skills, but your Lan Gongzi is quite talented, and I really want to meet him." Gong Changqing's words surprised Jiang Liuli, how did he know about Lan Gongzi when he first came?

"You peeked at my letters." Jiang Liuli squinted at him, he didn't expect him to do such a thing, he really underestimated him.

"You unfolded the letter and put it on the table yourself, I just went to your room to get the medical book, it's hard not to see it." The palace chief said in a loud voice.

Jiang Liuli thought about it, it really seemed to be the case, at noon, she received a letter from Lan Gongzi, which wrote some of his thoughts and research on disguise medicine powder, but it was not successful, and finally a poem was attached, at that time she was anxious to develop disguise medicine, so she hurriedly went out to find medicine, but she didn't expect to be seen by him.

"We're just pen pals, and I haven't met him in person." Jiang Liuli explained leisurely, in fact, there were many times, she also wanted to meet him, but she was pressed down by herself, which is good, she didn't want this friendship to slowly dissipate with the meeting.

"What is a pen pal?" Duan Ruoxi put on the veil again and asked curiously.

"It's just that two people who have never met but have a correspondence, referred to as pen pals." Jiang Liuli roughly introduced the meaning of pen pals, this word is too modern, and they naturally don't understand.

"Judging by his writings and poetry collections, he was a man of integrity and talent." He looked at his words, the font is upright, the water chestnut is distinct, and the pen is relatively smooth, such a person, not only integrity, a heavier sense of responsibility, but also a decisive and wise person, such a person, worthy of deep friendship.

"Senior brother, you came to see Ruoxi, not to him." Jiang Liuli said helplessly, although she also wanted to see Lan Gongzi, she would not go out of her way to find him, and let it be.

Gong Changqing raised his eyes and looked at her, and finally stopped his eyes on Duan Ruoxi's body, she could make good friends when she left the Liuli Palace, he was naturally happy for her, since she was bent on helping her restore her appearance, she would do her best.

Seeing that all she was thinking about at this time was Duan Ruo's face, she could only sit down helplessly, she originally planned to start healing tomorrow, but she didn't expect her to be so eager.

"Give me your hand." He sat down and looked at the three of them who were still standing.

"Okay." Duan Ruoxi knew that he was taking the pulse, so he quickly sat down and put his right hand on the table.

Gong Changqing took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and covered Duan Ruoxi's wrist, then put his hand on it and began to check the pulse.

Jiang Liuli raised her eyebrows and looked at the handkerchief on Duan Ruoxi's hand, feeling so familiar, especially the bamboo pattern on the handkerchief was particularly familiar, and after thinking about it, she remembered that this was a handkerchief embroidered when she was fine in Ming Xia, because she used a sword all year round, and she was very bad at female red, and it took a long time to embroider a bamboo pattern that looked more decent.

Mingxia can embroider such a straight, neat needlework and neat pattern, or Jiang Liuli's credit, she and Mingyue have been brought into the Liuli Palace since childhood, they have been learning kung fu, female red rarely touch, only simple sewing clothes, Mingxia whimsical want to show off handkerchiefs, only to find out how difficult it is to embroider exquisite patterns.

Jiang Liuli accidentally found that she wanted to embroider a handkerchief, but she couldn't, so she drew a pattern on the handkerchief with charcoal on a whim, and asked her to embroider according to the pattern, which led to the handkerchief that looks very good now, but what she never expected was that this handkerchief was given to her senior brother.

Now that they've gotten to this point, has their relationship gone further? Thinking of this, she suddenly became happy.
