Chapter Sixty-Eight: Getting Closer
"What's going on with you? How can you be bitten by a venomous spider? Kapok was puzzled, how could these two people chopping wood still be targeted by poisonous spiders.
"Maybe I cut the trunk of the tree where the poisonous spider pulled the web! It was originally on my neck, but Miss Zhang was afraid that the poisonous spider would bite me, so she was bitten when she helped me catch it, alas! It's all my fault for being too careless," Qu Xiangming slowly said with a look of self-reproach.
"How can I blame you! You have to blame me for this, if I hadn't asked you to go to the mountains to chop wood, it wouldn't have been such a big deal" Kapok listened to Qu Xiangming say this, only feeling that he was the culprit, and he suddenly blamed himself in his heart.
"How can I blame you, I still have to blame" Qu Xiangming comforted Kapok and said.
"Don't blame the two of you for coming over and blaming the past, as long as people are okay for a while, now observe carefully if there is anything unusual, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the Zhang family!" Li Xiuniang is most anxious about this, human life is a matter of heaven! And the Zhang family is such a daughter.
"Yes, yes, I'm going to guard," Kapok suddenly realized, entered the guest bedroom, sat next to the bed, and guarded.
"Then I'll go too" Qu Xiangming never wanted to go, and he planned to guard by the side.
"You two take a good look, I'm going to cook, I think it's time to wake up and be hungry, it's time for lunch, don't be too psychologically burdened, I see that your potion is very effective, there must be nothing wrong" Li Xiufeng said to the guest bedroom, she had seen the power of spiritual spring water, otherwise she would not dare to assert it, and after speaking, she went into the kitchen to cook.
In the guest bedroom, Kapok prayed in his heart a thousand times and ten thousand times that nothing would happen, in fact, he would soon be fine after taking the spiritual spring water, but the object of poisoning was Kapok's best friend, so Kapok hadn't calmed down and thought about it carefully, Qu Xiangming just sat quietly, thinking about how strong Zhang Yan was as a woman, and she didn't talk or do anything, and time seemed to stand still for a while.
About two hours later, Zhang Yan slowly opened her eyes.
"You can be regarded as awake, we are in a hurry to die" Kapok's serious face was finally liberated, and he happily hugged Zhang Yan.
"Miss Zhang, you're fine, are you hungry?" Qu Xiangming gave a rare gentle greeting.
"I'm really hungry," Zhang Yan said embarrassedly, touching her stomach.
"It's just right to be hungry, lunch is ready," Li Xiufeng said with a smile.
Qu Xiangming helped Zhang Yan out of the guest room, Zhang Yan said that it was okay not to help, but Qu Xiangming insisted on helping her.
Kapok and Li Xiufeng were busy serving dishes and setting dishes, and Qu Xiangming and Zhang Yan were happy to see Kapok, so Kapok didn't bother them.
Several people sat down and ate slowly, Qu Xiangming kept adding dishes to Zhang Yan, and the food in the bowl was almost piled up.
"Qu Gongzi, I can't finish eating so much," Zhang Yan said a little shyly.
"You have to eat if you can't finish eating, you have just recovered from a serious injury, so you have to eat more to make up for it," Qu Xiangming said undoubtedly.
Then "Also, call me Brother Qu, the son's call is awkward"
"Yes, yes! Then you also call me Zhang Yan, Miss Zhang sounds very awkward" Zhang Yan is telling the truth, and it is indeed awkward for the Zhuang family to listen to the young lady's son.
"Good"
Kapok looked at them while picking up rice, thinking that this time it would be effective for them to go into the mountains to chop wood, as long as they worked harder, added more fire, and created more opportunities, they would soon be able to have lovers and eventually become dependents, and the most important thing was to invite guests to dinner.
After all, Li Xiufeng has eaten Kapok and others for more than ten years, so he naturally saw what was going on, and he just smiled and didn't speak!
After eating, Kapok and Li Xiufeng cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks together.
"Girl, you tell your godmother, does this Xiang Ming like Zhang Yan" Li Xiufeng still guessed wrong, in fact, Zhang Yan fell in love with Qu Xiangming.
"No! It's Sister Zhang Yan who likes Qu Xiangming, and then I find a chance to let them get along, it seems that Qu Xiangming will soon like Zhang Yan," Kapok said while washing dishes.
"Oh! I see! I can't understand the affairs of you young people more and more, but you are already sixteen years old, girl, you should help you look at each other, and look at my daughter's ironclad man" Li Xiufeng deliberately joked about Kapok, she naturally knew the relationship between Kapok and Ansheng.
"Godmother, I'll ignore you!" Kapok rarely blushed, I just feel that I have no face!
"Huh! Then tell An Sheng to marry you quickly, a woman can't get married too late and be gossiped about," Li Xiufeng reminded solemnly.
"I know, godmother" Kapok thought about it, but she didn't plan to get married so early, gossip didn't affect her, and there were still a lot of things to be done about herself!
Here, Qu Xiangming was talking to Zhang Yan.
"Zhang Yan, thank you!" Qu Xiangming thanked him very sincerely, he is a prince of a family, and the battlefield general has not thanked a few people since he was a child!
"Don't be so polite, you, you understand my mind, what I do for you, I'm willing, I'm willing" Zhang Yan was so nervous that she stammered a little, she couldn't be really shy in front of her beloved man!
"I know, but thank you" Qu Xiangming smiled and said, he didn't know how to respond to Zhang Yan yet, he couldn't figure out whether he liked Kapok or not, he needed some time now, but there was an idea that was true, he wanted to stay for a while, but there was an urgent report from the border pass, which was to let him go back to the town quickly.
"Can you go out for a walk with me?" Zhang Yan asked cautiously, afraid that Qu Xiangming would not agree, otherwise he would be embarrassed.
"Yes, let's go! I'll hold you," Qu Xiangming said gently.
"Okay" Zhang Yan is in a very happy mood now, she didn't expect Qu Xiangming to agree.
Seeing the two of them going out, Kapok and Li Xiufeng smiled tacitly, it seemed that she was doing the right thing, Kapok was idle, thinking that An Sheng's food in the town must not be good, so he filled the chicken soup in a small wooden barrel and prepared to drive the carriage to the town to send it to An Sheng.
"Oops! My daughter hasn't married yet! I was hooked! Li Xiufeng naturally guessed when he saw that kapok was filling chicken soup, so he made fun of this kapok.
"Godmother, don't tease me, I'm thin-skinned" Kapok pretended to be angry.
"Okay, okay, I won't make fun of you, come back early" Li Xiufeng waved his hand and said helplessly.
"Got it, godmother, then I'll go" Kapok packed the chicken soup and said goodbye.
"Go ahead!"
After saying that, Kapok went to the stable in the yard to pull the horse out and put it on the carriage, and then drove the carriage out of the door.
With the carriage, the road to the town is naturally not far, and when I pass in front of Wang Cuihua's house, the door is open, looking at the chickens and dogs jumping inside, I vaguely heard Wang Cuihua say something like "You cheap girl, you have not yet grown up to climb the master's bed, see if I don't cure you" and something like that.
Then I heard Mu Qing say, "You shrew, you don't even let go of a maid, you were blind and married you unvirtuous"
Then there was a maid begging for mercy, "The slave knows her mistake, but the slave is sincere, begging the lady to be fulfilled"
Kapok listened to the general summary that Wang Cuihua's maid climbed onto the master's bed to seek fulfillment, thinking that it should be Mu Lang's bed, because Mu Qing wants to save face, this kind of thing will be laughed to death if the people in the village know it, Wang Cuihua is strict, so Mu Qing should not have that courage, Mu Qing probably saw that the little girl was pitiful and helped beg for mercy, but in fact, Kapok really thought wrong this time, and it will be revealed later.
Kapok soon arrived in town, drove the wagon to find a place to stop, and then picked up the small wooden barrel containing chicken soup and got out of the wagon.
The yamen where Ansheng went to work was not far from here, so it was very fast.
"This big brother, I'm looking for An Sheng'an to catch the head and pass on a word" Kapok said and handed over a bunch of money, which is easy to do with money.
"Okay! You wait a minute," the guard received the money and happily entered the yamen.
After a while, An Sheng came out with the messenger.
"Mian'er, it turned out that you were looking for me! I thought it was my little sister! An Sheng stepped forward quickly and said, he had not seen him for a few days, and he missed it very much.
"Brother An, I brought the chicken soup from the family today, you can take it in and drink it while it's hot," Kapok said as he handed the small wooden bucket to An Sheng.
"Okay, I'll definitely drink it while it's hot, but you've come all the way here to bring me chicken soup?"
"Yes! Otherwise, what does Brother An think? Kapok said playfully.
"Don't do this kind of stupid thing in the future, the person in charge of the food in the yamen, I feel distressed when you run back and forth" An Sheng said movingly, his eyes were full of love!
"How can this be called a stupid thing! The rice in the yamen is definitely not as delicious and nutritious as my chicken soup, and I have a carriage, so I won't get tired" Kapok doesn't like that the two of them are together and pay for one party, and An Sheng pays much more for himself silently.
"That's not good" An Sheng said undoubtedly, quite domineering!
"Don't Brother An want to see me?" Kapok pretended to be aggrieved and said, this stopped An Sheng.
"Of course not, I think you're going crazy, but who will feed you when I work? Although our cotton children don't need me to raise, I still want to spend all the money I earn for you, so I have to work hard to earn silver" An Sheng is helpless, he is always defeated in the offensive of kapok, who calls himself a deep love for kapok!
"Alright! What I said is reasonable, but I still have to send it to you if I have something to eat and drink, and I am not allowed to say no" Kapok rarely insisted in front of An Sheng.
"Okay, then you have to slow down when you drive the carriage and don't let me worry" An Sheng had no choice but to agree, he knew that Kapok had always been very stubborn.
"Yes! I know, mother-in-law's mother-in-law," Kapok muttered with her head down.
"Alas! I really can't help you," An Sheng said with a wry smile, reaching out and touching Kapok's head dotingly.
The author can't stand it, "It's really a good dog food!" ”
The two talked sweetly for a while, An Sheng still had to do things, so Kapok didn't stay any longer, after all, it was not appropriate to talk about love at the door of the yamen.
An Sheng watched Kapok until he disappeared from his sight, and then he was ready to enter the yamen, and when he entered, he explained a few words to the guard.
"In the future, this girl will come, and you will come to inform me directly when you see it, you don't have to wait for her to say, understand?" An Sheng knew that the guards liked to fish for oil and water, so he said so.
"Got it, Ann Catch," the two guards said in unison.
