Chapter 138: Could it be that they join forces?
"Hey, what is she doing at the pharmacy?" Ai Chen saw it, muttered to himself, and Yehuang subconsciously pulled her to hide behind the wall on the side.
Huo Xiyu stood at the mouth of the pharmacy, stretched out his hand and swept his unhurried eyes around, and then slowly moved forward, with a calm look.
"Scratch your head and make a pose" Ai Chen muttered with great disapproval, and Ye Huang watched Huo Xiyu walk away before pulling her out of the wall: "Let's go, let's go to the pharmacy"
The two of them walked quickly to the pharmacy, and as soon as they entered, the shopkeeper was stunned, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet: "Second Grandma Mo, you are here, I don't know what you need?" ”
Yehuang smiled indifferently and said: "Oh, it's nothing, it's just that my mother-in-law said this morning that she has a headache and brain fever, and I have been here, so I want to buy some expensive medicinal materials for my mother-in-law to recuperate." Yehuang said with a look of scanning around, and when the shopkeeper heard that it was expensive medicine, he excitedly stepped forward and began to introduce Yehuang: "Second grandma, look at it, there are good gastrodia here, and ......"
When the shopkeeper spoke, Yehuang glanced at Ai Chen, and Ai Chen immediately spoke: "Miss, the slave maid just saw Miss Huo go out here, could it be that she has bought something for his wife......
"Really?" Yehuang frowned: "No, she also bought some good medicinal materials for my mother-in-law, shopkeeper, don't let me patronize and ask me to buy something that is silent, make me buy it heavy"
The shopkeeper hurriedly waved his hand: "Hey, Grandma Mo, we are a time-honored brand, and we will never fool people, Miss Huo only bought medicine to remove fire and heat dissipation, and you are neither flushed nor heavy."
"Heat dissipation?" Yehuang's eyes rolled and smiled, and he went to pick out medicinal materials, and before long, he picked out some Tianma Chuanqiong.
"Miss, aren't you going to buy the fire medicine?" Ai Chen saw that Yehuang only bought these, and couldn't help but ask, Yehuang glanced at her: "What's the hurry, let's buy it elsewhere"
At that moment, he pulled Ai Chen out and got into the carriage, and bought some medicinal materials to go to the fire in another house and came back, and asked Ai Chen to make soup, and sat in the house to think, and when it was nearly noon, the soup was boiled, and Yehuang took Ai Chen to the office quickly.
"Why is Miss in such a hurry?" Ai Chen was a little puzzled, why did the night phoenix suddenly rush to it.
"Go early and watch the play early" Ye Huang hurriedly replied, walking faster, Ai Chen felt that Ye Huang was almost always walking like flying.
As soon as the two arrived at the office, the door greeted them with a smile: "The second grandmother is here to eat again?" What a blessing to be a grown-up."
Yehuang smiled: "What if you don't send food?" I got up early in the morning and said that I had a toothache, so I had to get some soup for him to drink, I hope I can go to the fire" Saying that, she walked inside, and the door thought about the promise: "Yes, you have to drink the fire medicine when you get on fire, Miss Huo also sent someone to send a bowl of fire medicine just now, but the adults don't drink it"
Yehuang raised his eyebrows when he heard this: Poor? Didn't she come by herself?
At that moment, the people laughed: "No way, my second master is afraid of hardship" After speaking, he took Ai Chen to the hall, and waved his hand without calling the door to say hello. As soon as she entered, she saw Mo Ji sitting in front of the desk with his hand covering his cheeks, staring at the bowl of medicine in front of him in a daze.
At that moment, she slowly stepped forward: "Good medicine is good for disease, what is the husband hesitating about?" ”
Mo Ji was not surprised to see the night phoenix coming, after all, if he didn't go back to eat these days, the night phoenix would also send food over, so when he saw the night phoenix, he smiled, stretched out his hand and took the bowl away while smiling at the night phoenix: "What kind of delicious food did Madame make me?" ”
Yehuang glanced at him with a smile: "It's a big bubble on my mouth, and I'm still thinking about eating this without medicine, hurry up and drink it, I can only relieve the pain by going to the fire, and I eat it fragrant."
Mo Ji looked at the night phoenix when he heard this, and there was a smile in his eyes: "How does Madam know that this medicine is to go to the fire?" ”
Yehuang smiled and said nothing, Mo Ji had to say to himself: "In the past few days, Mrs. has given me medicine to replenish my body, and I haven't felt bitter after drinking these seven or eight times, but this is not given by Mrs., I'm afraid of bitterness."
"Poof" Yehuang couldn't help laughing when he looked at Mo Ji, and the person leaned forward and said, "This is also the kindness of others, isn't it?" Why don't you appreciate it? ”
Mo Ji shook his head: "This kind of love, I only dare to understand it" said and winked at the night phoenix.
Yehuang immediately said, "Are you still guarding against her?" ”
To be honest, Yehuang didn't believe that Momo would guard against Huo Xiyu, after all, she knew that there was a sense of kindness and apology between Momo and Huo Xiyu, so she always felt that Huo Xiyu also dared to "move" a few times without fear because of this.
Mo Ji raised his hand and touched his nose and said: "I also wish I was thinking too much, but the closer the day gets, the more worried I become, what's more, I don't want to be careless and do something wrong and annoy Madame" He said and stretched out his hand, Yehuang smiled and reached out and walked around to him: "It's hard for you to think about me"
Holding hands together, Mo Ji smiled and patted it: "You're going to be annoyed, who will make me something to eat?" ”
"Out of breath" Yehuang muttered and suddenly raised his eyebrows: "By the way, more than twenty today?" ”
"Twenty Ah"
"That's five days away," Yehuang murmured.
The day that Yehuang said was the fourth day of the fifth month, and this day was the day when Huo Xiyu combed himself. Self-combing is not something that can be done in a single sentence, it also needs a ritual.
Usually the elders in the ancestral hall finalize a day, but this time Huo Xiyu is a little special, so the squires have to turn over the yellow calendar, and then finalize this day, that is to say, the day before the Dragon Boat Festival, Huo Xiyu will be in front of the ancestral hall, witnessed by the squires, watching her comb her hair, and become a self-combing girl from then on.
"How?" Mo Ji gently squeezed her hand: "Are you also uneasy?" ”
The word "also" says a lot, and Yehuang stretched out his right hand to touch Mo Ji's face when he heard this: "If I hadn't bumped into her showing love to you that time, maybe I wouldn't have been so upset, but after that time, she said to put it down, I doubt it very much, especially these days, seeing her going in and out like this, and the praise everywhere continues, and I don't believe it anymore......" Yehuang said and raised his eyebrows at Mo Ji: "You won't think I'm stingy, right?" ”
Mo Ji shook his head: "I will be nervous if I care, I'm honored, I'm hungry"
Yehuang shook his head helplessly when he heard this, and then called Ai Chen to come in and put the food, and people went up to help, Mo Ji looked at Yehuang and muttered to himself: That night drunk, you forgot to be clean, but how can I forget? Cousin Jade, how generous is she? And what justice did she and I want that day...... Hey, I'm afraid it's not that simple......
"It's set, come and use it" Yehuang called Mo Ji, and when Mo Ji got up, he was stunned when he saw that it was Tang.
"You have a toothache and foaming at the mouth, you must be uncomfortable when you eat, drink some soup, there are mung beans in it, this can cool off the heat, I know you are afraid of bitterness, but you still have to eat some bitterness, I bought bitter bamboo shoots, stewed pork ribs for you at night, eat some flavorful can also defeat the fire, okay?"
Yehuang asked Mo Ji with a smile, making Mo Ji feel her care and love, and nodded with a smile: "Madam said whatever she wanted, and Ji didn't dare to push it"
Yehuang glanced at him: "Yes, let's drink soup"
Mo Ji drank the soup with a smile, and ate some dishes that had been watered, which were soft and did not irritate the gums, and he felt less painful. When it was used up and Yehuang packed up her things and was about to go, she glanced at the bowl of medicine, and finally grabbed the medicine, poured it into the flower pot on the side, and then dropped the empty bowl: "Cousin Yu is kind, you have to thank you for it."
Mo Ji waved his hand: "Is it okay for Mrs. Lao to send it?" ”
Yehuang smiled and took the bowl: "Okay"
……
As soon as he came out of the office, Ai Chen frowned and said softly: "Miss won't really want to send the bowl back, right?" ”
"Why don't you send it? People care so much about my man, how can I not know the number of etiquette" Yehuang smiled and stepped forward, and was pulled by Ai Chen's sleeve when he took a step: "Miss does she have to teach her a lesson?" ”
Yehuang sighed: "You are such a smart and clever person, why are you stupid?" When I go to her, don't I just follow her wishes? ”
Ai Chen was stunned, and suddenly his eyes widened: "Miss, you mean that she did it on purpose?" ”
"Whether it's intentional or not, I'm really not completely sure, but she doesn't shy away from grabbing medicine for my man, and the poor candidate sent it at this time, isn't she just trying to anger me?" Yehuang said with a narrowing of his eyes: "What benefit can she get if she is angry with me?" I shaved her ears angrily, with the momentum of her praise now, do you think she will go out and cry or something, let others say that I am a jealous woman? ”
Ai Chen nodded vigorously: "Yes, definitely, and now that she is regarded by everyone as a righteous woman, then everyone will definitely say that Miss You, she will ruin your reputation again...... But what did she mean by doing that? Is it just a psychological pleasure? ”
Yehuang bit her lower lip, and then said: "I don't know, but it's not profitable, she won't just get along with me for this, there must be something else to think about...... Let's go, let's meet her, there is a good saying, if you don't get into the tiger's den, let's go and get to the bottom."
Ai Chen nodded immediately, and immediately walked forward with the night phoenix, but after a few steps, he suddenly grabbed the night phoenix, pressed it against the wall on the side, and made a silent gesture, and before long, a person who nodded quickly walked out of the yamen and left in a hurry.
"This is ......" Seeing that the person was gone, Yehuang looked at Ai Chen in confusion, not understanding why such a person wanted Ai Chen to avoid herself and her.
Ai Chen whispered in Ye Huang's ear: "I just heard the words of the Yacha Xiangsheng saying: 'My lord told you to keep your mouth tight', I don't know who it is, so I will avoid it first, so as not to bump into something that shouldn't be bumped." ”
Yehuang heard that Ai Chen was also kind to protect her, so he smiled and took her hand: "Thank you, let's go"
Ai Chen never thought that someone would say thank you to herself, she was a little stunned for a moment, so she followed Ye Huang stupidly and walked in front of the yamen.
And Yehuang glanced at the yamen indifferently, and saw a person dressed as a master saw her, obviously stunned.
Yehuang smiled with Ai Chen without a trace: "You girl, you always don't know what to do......"
Ai Chen is not stupid in the end, when he heard Yehuang suddenly say this, he subconsciously swept to the yamen, and cooperated: "Miss dislikes slaves and maids......"
When she swept over the person like the master, she also closed her eyes, and the two of them passed the yamen like this.
Yehuang and Ai Chen were still laughing, but instinctively looked at the figure in front of them who was about to disappear and lowered his voice and said, "That person has a problem, you have to investigate"
Ai Chen nodded immediately: "The slave understands"
So Yehuang suddenly stood still and said to Ai Chen: "Don't mess with you, the gold chain you fought last time is almost the same, you go and get it back for me."
Ai Chen answered and went, and Yehuang carried the food box basket into the Mo Mansion by himself.
The housekeeper came up to greet him, Yehuang nodded and stepped forward, and when he went up the steps, he swept down the yamen, and saw a green shadow shrinking in, and the corners of his mouth hooked into the house at the moment.
After the wall, she frowned slightly: Hmph, she was stunned when she saw me, and she looked at me like this, just afraid that something related to me was not what she was plotting
She guessed a little, and vaguely remembered that she had seen the person dressed as the master, and at that time she still bought a beautiful scenery in the market and went home, but at that time, he also sent an official maid into the carriage, and the official maid ......
She rolled her eyes and clenched her fists at the moment: If it is the uncle's outer house, it can be seen that this person is specially working for the uncle, or is it something unseemly, then just now...... Isn't the uncle angry with me? Do you want to fix me?
Yehuang thought of these and stood at the people's place, but because it was speculation, he could only put it aside first, and went to Huo Xiyu's guest house with the food box.
knocked on the door and walked into the courtyard, only two steps, Huo Xiyu greeted him: "Who, oh, it's Sister Yehuang, why are you free to come?" ”
"Cousin Jade, is it strange that I am coming?" Yehuang smiled, put the food box on the rockery on the side, took the bowl from the inside, and handed it to Huo Xiyu: "I'm here to return the bowl." ”
Huo Xiyu took the bowl: "Sister Yehuang, don't care, I saw Aji this morning......"
"Cousin Yu laughed at this, what do I care about? This medicine of yours is to give my ink ink to the fire, this is your kindness, I want to thank you, but...... You don't have to worry about it now, I will take care of my Momo's body, and I also gave him medicine, in case he eats too much and hurts his body, it's not good, not to mention wasting your money, isn't it? It's not easy for you now, you have to take care of all your expenses after combing, whether we help each other or not, you still have more money for yourself."
Ye Huang smiled, and then owed to Huo Xiyu: "I still have something, this is ......"
"Night Phoenix Sister" Huo Xiyu said hurriedly: "After a few days, I will comb myself, to be honest, I don't plan to stay in Mofu, after all, I have caused some trouble between you and Ah Ji for a while; And now, you are so affectionate to him, I know that I am hopeless, so I am willing to quit, and I ask Sister Yehuang to forgive me for my confusion that day, and I hope that you will grow old together."
Yehuang glanced at Huo Xiyu: "Cousin Yu doesn't have to say this, the past is over, not to mention that between me and Momo, there will be no trouble and unpleasantness because of that little thing, so don't think about it anymore As for you blessing me and Momo, then thank you, even so, I will ...... it."
"Sister Night Phoenix, look, in a few days, I will ...... Can I invite you to have a meal with Aki? ”
"Eat?"
"Yes" Huo Xiyu bowed his head embarrassedly and said: "I should move out in the future, but to be honest, after all, I have known Aji since childhood, although I have realized it, but I still have intentions in my heart for Aji, but I know that he does not belong to me, and it is impossible for me to be with him, but can you let me say goodbye to him for the sake of my life, okay?" ”
Huo Xiyu had already raised his head at the moment, with tears in his eyebrows and eyes, a sad Chu Chu portrait, no matter how he looked at it, he was distressed and couldn't bear to be pity, but Yehuang hooked the corners of his mouth and said very unceremoniously: "It's not good"
Huo Xiyu was stunned, and only after a while did he say: "Sister Yehuang, you don't have to be so ......"
"My mother said that there are three principles in her life, first, what is shared does not include beds and men; Second, people respect me, I respect people, people offend me, I offend people; The third is, never give others unnecessary thoughts. I've always kept my mother's words in my heart, and I've agreed with it over the years, but recently I've changed it slightly, and that's the second ......" Yehuang said and leaned forward to Huo Xiyu, and said word by word: "If someone offends me, I can kill someone."
After that, Huo Xiyu said with a smile in her somewhat white face: "So, you better comb yourself, since you want to be alone, then you have to meditate, I won't bother" After that, she didn't care what Huo Xiyu would do, so she strode away with the food box.
Huo Xiyu gritted her teeth and clenched her fists in front of the rockery, and when the night phoenix disappeared behind her eyes, her face was completely covered with haze: "Hmph, let's see."
Yehuang walked quickly into the second gate, and when he returned to his courtyard, he sat down at the stone table in the courtyard.
Throwing the food box on the table, Ye Huang's fingers tapped lightly on the food box, her eyes rolled, and she murmured softly: "Want to have a meal?" Is there something strange about this meal? I refused, she would definitely play second-hand, I don't know why? Huo Xiyu, Huo Xiyu, what kind of trick do you want to play? ”
She was muttering, Brother Xuan came out of the house, and when he saw Yehuang, he leaned towards her: "Mother, you're back."
Yehuang responded absentmindedly, and Brother Xuan had already walked over: "Mother, let's play bamboo shoots, let's play with my mother-in-law, it's so boring."
Yehuang was speechless, a little stunned, Brother Xuan looked at her like that, blinked, and drilled into Yehuang's arms: "Mother, have you encountered anything difficult?" ”
Yehuang looked down at him, and stretched out his hand to caress him: "Xuan'er, my mother has something to figure out, can you let my mother think about it for a while?" ”
Xuan'er nodded and said, "Okay, Xuan'er doesn't bother my mother, but mother, my father said that if you can't figure out something, think about it in another way, maybe you can have an answer." ”
"Another way?" Yehuang looked at Brother Xuan, and Brother Xuan picked his head: "Yes, my father said: 'The matter of ants, the finch is unknown, the finch thinks, and the ant does not understand, therefore, the ant is eaten by the farrow, and it is fate; If the ants know how to think, they will be safe, so they should not get up early and be eaten; Thinking about things and thinking about things, it is the same, ants want to live, and they need to think about birds."
Yehuang looked at Brother Xuan'er, listened to some words word by word, and suddenly realized, stretched out his hand and patted his head: "Look at me so confused, what can I guess so much?" Isn't empathy enough? ”
Brother Xuan looked at Yehuang like this, and was slightly surprised: "Why is my mother ......?"
"Okay Xuan'er, thank you for reminding my mother" Yehuang said and lowered his head and kissed Brother Xuan'er on the cheek: "Okay, my mother will think about things now, and I'll play with you later"
Brother Xuan saw that Yehuang's eyebrows flew out with joy, and he responded with a smile at the moment, and the person went to the side to play by himself, while Yehuang began to think in the opposite direction, empathy: If I were Cousin Yu, what would I want? Naturally, it's ink, but how can I get ink? Moreover, it has to do with self-combing
Night Phoenix pondered there for about a quarter of an hour, and Ai Chen ran back with a snort.
As soon as she saw Yehuang sitting at the stone table and thinking about it, she walked quickly to the front, glanced at Brother Xuan, who was playing with bamboo shoots and cards under the porch, and leaned over to Yehuang's side and whispered: "Miss, that person is a *male."
Yehuang's ears were like thunder, and she turned her head to look at Ai Chen in shock, and after understanding what Ai Chen said to herself, she raised her eyebrows: "Turtle ...... Male, how can he be this kind of person? ”
She lowered her voice, and deliberately looked at Brother Xuan, fortunately he was very focused, so Yehuang pulled Ai Chen to sit down and looked at her: "Tell me carefully, what did you hear?" ”
"Okay, that person is the * male of the Zuiyue Building in Fan Lane, I followed him and saw him enter, so I immediately went to the back alley and entered the courtyard to check, and I saw him talking to the bustard mother on that floor, and the bustard mother saw him and asked: 'Given?' The * male replied 'yes', and the bustard's mother sent him to I couldn't find any news, so he came back. ”
Hearing this, Yehuang frowned and tapped on the stone table: "*Gong gave something out, *Gong, something, what can Qinglou give people?" ”
Ai Chen paused, and said with a blink of his eyes: "It's nothing more than three things."
"Which three?"
"CHN medicine, contract and ......" Ai Chen's face blushed a little, and Ye Huang looked at her like that, and her eyes turned to react: "That kind of fake thing? ”
Ai Chen immediately nodded and looked at Brother Xuan with a blushing face.
Yehuang immediately began to analyze: "What does the eldest brother want through the master?" These three things, the kind she needs the most? Indenture? Isn't it enough for him to get a house in the two foreign houses, but also to get the girl in the kiln? After Ye Huang finished speaking, he shook his head again: "No, no, how can a woman in the kiln enter the door, even if she gives birth to an heir, it will not be dishonorable, and her mother-in-law may not be ...... Is it CHN medicine? ”
"Uncle, isn't he successful?" Ai Chen immediately muttered, but Yehuang pursed his lower lip: "Could it be that he broke his body and asked this thing to help?" But why did that person look at me and be stunned, I think this must have something to do with me."
"Relevant? But these few things, the slave doesn't think it can have anything to do with you, but the second master is afraid that he can't even do it."
Yehuang's brain flashed when she heard this, and she raised her head and asked Ai Chen: "You say, will the uncle join forces with Huo Xiyu?" ”
Ai Chen pursed his lower lip: "They? How so? If the uncle and the second master don't deal with each other much, what can they do with her, and what can they do if they join forces? ”
Yehuang's eyes quickly swung from side to side, and before long, she snorted coldly: "Uncle is jealous of Momo, narrow-minded, and hopes that he will overpower Momo, but what pressure does he take?" Unless Momo has a problem, what problem can make him be surpassed by the uncle...... Wait for Momo to have a problem, if there is a problem, if, if Huo Xiyu and Momo are entangled, then he won't ...... Hey, is he going to borrow a knife to kill? ”()
