Chapter 39: The Puzzle
Hu Yingzhi looked at Yu Gardenia, and that inexplicable sense of familiarity always lingered in his heart - the first time he saw Yu Gardenia, he had an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if he had seen this person before, and as if the scene in front of him had happened.
He has always been a pragmatist, and useless people don't want to be perfunctory at all, but for some reason, for Lin Jia, a maid, he always wants to stay with her for a while and see her bright smile......
Yu Yu bowed, flashed to the side, and waited for Hu Yingzhi to pass, but Hu Yingzhi stood there, looking at her for a moment.
Yu Yu was about to open her mouth to remind, but Lin Jia lifted the curtain and walked out.
He looked at Hu Yingzhi and Yu Yu who were standing outside the door, his eyes fell on Yu Yu, and said lightly: "Yu Yu, go in!"
As he spoke, Lin Jia's hand was still holding the thick curtain.
Yu Yu replied softly "yes", and bowed her head into the study with Lin Jia lifting the door curtain.
Hu Yingzhi looked at Yu Yu's back, a trace of disappointment flashed in Hei Lingling's eyes, and soon a pleasant smile appeared: "My lord, this is-"
Lin Jia's Yangyue lips pursed, and Xiu's long eyes glanced at Hu Yingzhi meaningfully.
Hu Yingzhi is a smart person, and immediately received a message from Lin Jia - this girl is Lin Jia's maid!
For some reason, his heart tingled instantly, and it was even a little difficult to breathe.
Hu Yingzhi said no more, and left.
Lin Jia watched Hu Yingzhi's back wrapped in a fox fur slowly walk away, and a sentence couldn't help but come to mind - "A beautiful woman, why be a thief"!
Yu Yu was looking through the books on the shelves in the outer study, and when she saw Lin Jia coming in, she hurriedly smiled and curtled her knees: "The slave has seen the son!"
Lin Jia saw Yu Yu smiling flatteringly, and couldn't help but be vigilant: What does she want to do? If I fell in love with that Hu Yingzhi, I would never give her to Hu Yingzhi!
Because there is a curtain hanging on the door, the light in the study is a little dim, so the light is lit with a branch lamp, the whole room is as bright as day, and the light shines on Lin Jia's face, which makes him more and more handsome, but there is always a contemplative expression on his face.
Seeing Lin Jia's thoughtful face, Yu Yi pointed to the food box on the small kang table next to the brocade couch and said with a smile: "Son, the slave maid brought you lunch, do you want to set the meal now?"
Lin Jia nodded.
Hollyhock waited for Lin Jia to clean her hands with fragrant pancreas, and then went to set the meal.
Lin Jia sat down on the brocade couch and watched the hollyhock neatly arrange the meal.
Lin Jia's lunch was made by Yu Yu and Xu Erniang, a total of two meat, two vegetarian four dishes and a vegetarian mixed casserole.
Waiting for Lin Jia to finish lunch, Yu Yu knelt opposite Lin Jia diagonally, packed up the cups, plates and chopsticks, and was about to leave, but heard Lin Jia on the other side say: "Yu Yu, I am still a little unwell......
Hearing this, Yu Yu looked up, her beautiful eyes shining brightly.
Lin Jia couldn't help but feel a little weak, lowered her eyes and said, "It's still a little disgusting...... I always want to retch......"
Yu Yu was very worried when she heard this, and hurriedly said, "Is it just nausea and retching?" Do you feel cold? ”
As she spoke, a pair of white and warm hands had already reached over and landed on Lin Jia's forehead.
Lin Jia's whole body froze there.
Yu Yu put his hand on Lin Jia's forehead for a moment, and found that Lin Jia's forehead seemed to have a normal temperature, so he glanced at Lin Jia and said in his heart: If you want to see if the child has a fever, the best way is to test the temperature of the other party's forehead with your lips.
She looked at Lin Jia and felt that although Lin Jia did act like a child, she really looked like a young man, and her own method didn't seem to be suitable for Lin Jia.
Lin Jia was touched by Yu Gardenia and was numb and crispy, as if she had been electrified, and the cold hairs on her whole body stood up, and she couldn't wait for Yu Gardenia to touch it for a while, touch it for a while.
Yu Yu withdrew his hand and said, "I can't touch it with my hands, even so, I'll go to the Xinglin Medical Center to ask Mr. Meng to come over and ask him to show you the pulse again!"
Lin Jia said "um" softly, seeing that Yu Yu was leaving, she couldn't help waking up like a dream, and hurriedly said: "You don't have to go, just let Ah Lan go!"
Yu Yu agreed, and left with the food box.
Hu Yingzhi only ate a small bowl of porridge for lunch, and his body was really difficult to support, so he slept in the inner room of the county magistrate.
He couldn't sleep well, lay hazy for a long time, and then got up and started to work.
When it was dark, Kunpeng came back: "My lord, the little guy named Ah Lan next to the county magistrate went to the Xinglin Medical Center and invited Dr. Meng to go to the county ya's house, and Miss Meng, the daughter of Lord Meng, also followed!"
Hu Yingzhi looked over lazily: "Miss Meng? Is it Meng Wanru? ”
Kunpeng said: "It's Meng Wanru Meng girl!"
Hu Yingzhi asked softly, "When did the Meng family's father and daughter go out?"
There are two doctors in Xinglin Medical Center, his father Meng Qinglong has good medical skills and a good reputation; Her daughter Meng Wanru is a female doctor, who only treats women and children, and her medical skills are so-so.
Lin Jia invited Meng's mother and daughter over, could it be that someone in the inner house was sick? Is that the girl you've seen several times?
Lin Jia was still unwell, so she invited Dr. Meng to come over, but there was nothing to do with Meng Wanru, but Meng Wanru wanted to get close to the young magistrate, so she went in a hurry......
The eagle laughed on the side: "This Meng girl, every time she sees our adults, she smiles like a flower, and she makes it for us adults——"
He was talking happily, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Hu Yingzhi's eyes slightly squinting and looking at him, his eyes were cold, and he was suddenly stunned, and he was busy silent-adults hate people who love to tell right and wrong!
After thinking for a while, Hu Yingzhi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said softly: "Kunpeng, you go to the shop to get some good rouge gouache, and we will set off for Xinglin Medical Center in an hour."
Doctor Meng is old in the world and will not be easily fooled by him, and this matter must start with Meng Wanru.
Kunpeng agreed and went to make arrangements.
It was already dark outside, and the lights were bright inside.
Lin Jia was sitting on the Luohan bed in the bright room, and Dr. Meng was sitting on the brocade stool, taking Lin Jia's pulse.
Yu Yu stood to the side, watching intently.
Meng Wanru was sitting on the yellow rosewood circle chair against the east wall, just in time to be able to see Lin Jia's face.
She first carefully admired Lin Jia's face, and found that although the young magistrate was a little thin and thin, he was really handsome.
After looking at Lin Jia's face, Meng Wanru's eyes fell on Lin Jia's clothes again.
Lin Jia was wearing a half-worn cyan round-necked brocade robe, the fabric looked ordinary, but it was a fine snow-capped mountain brocade, and the price was better than gold!
Meng Wanru's heart beat a little fast, she looked around, looked at the furnishings in the bright room, and found that the bright room looked elegant and simple, but the furniture was all fine yellow rosewood; The vases placed are also fine porcelain!
Her eyes moved to Yu Yu, who was standing on the side, and said in her heart: Such a beautiful and elegant maid is worth forty or fifty taels of silver? If you know some talents, you may not be able to buy two or three hundred taels of silver......
Now it seems that this young Lin Zhixian is not only handsome, but also has a lot of money, but I don't know if there is a wife in the family......
Meng Wanru's eyes rolled, beckoned Yu Yu to come over, and said softly with a smile: "This sister, the slave family wants to make it easier, please lead the way!"
Yu Yu led Meng Wanru out of the bright room and went to the clean room.
Coming out of the clean room, Meng Wanru washed her hands with fragrant pancreas, took off the chrysanthemum pattern silver bracelet from her wrist and stuffed it to Yu Yu: "Small objects, worthless, sister take them and play with them!"
Yu Yu is useless, how can she take her things? smiled and resolutely pushed it over: "The girl has something to say, it's not necessary!"
Meng Wanru let go of the two, and seeing that Yu Yu was resolute, it seemed that she really didn't dare to take it, so she took the opportunity to put the silver bracelet back on, took Yu Yu's hand affectionately, and said with a smile: "What do you call my sister?"
Yu Yu smiled and said, "The slave's name is Yu Yu."
Meng Wanru held Yu Yu's hand and said, "Yu Yu, you are really good-looking, even in Zhao County, it is rare to have a maid like you, I like you very much when I see you!"
Yu Yu smiled slightly: "Miss Meng is beautiful!"
This Meng girl, born with a small head, small face, small eyes, small nose and small mouth, is small and exquisite, and she is pretty when she gets together, but she has a shrewd face, some shrewdness is exposed, and she treats everyone else as a fool, thinking that she is the only shrewd person in the world.
Meng Wanru picked up the flattering words that didn't cost money, and said a lot to her heart's content, before getting into the main topic, pretending to be casual: "Yuyu, Lord Lin of Zhixian County looks really young and promising, I don't know if there can be a ...... at home Wife? ”
Yu Yu said a little mischievously: "My son-in-law naturally has a family!"
As she spoke, a pair of crystal eyes observed Meng Wanru and watched Meng Wanru's reaction.
Meng Wanru's face remained unchanged, and she still smiled: "Really? Lord Lin is a man who does big things, he is a big man, and the big people naturally married their wives early, but I don't know how many stars Lord Lin has? ”
Yu Yu has already figured out that this Miss Meng's goal is not to become Mrs. Lin, but to become an aunt!
She smiled and said, "Miss Meng, I'm playing with you, we adults are only sixteen years old this year, how can we have a wife!"
This Meng girl looks seventeen or eighteen years old, if she says this, will she retreat?
Meng Wanru's smile was even sweeter: "There is a saying in Zhaoxian County, called 'female junior, hug gold bricks', if Lord Lin is young, he needs to find an older person to take care of him!"
Yu Yu smiled slyly and said, "Huh? Is our son calling someone? ”
As she spoke, she lifted her feet and entered the bright room.
Meng Wanru also followed.
Dr. Meng prescribed medicine to say goodbye.
Lin Jia got up and sent to the porch.
Although Meng Wanru followed her father out, her little shiny eyes seemed to be glued to Lin Jia, and before leaving, she glanced at Lin Jia with tenderness and said, "Slave farewell", and then left with Dr. Meng.
Qingcha watched it on the side, and couldn't help pouting - this Meng girl is really a toad who wants to eat swan meat!
However, she thought about it for a while, and said in her heart: If Miss Meng sees Childe once or twice again, she will definitely be left coldly, and Yu Yu can endure Childe's boredom and gloom......
As soon as Ah Lan got the medicine back, it started to rain outside.
Yu Yu was boiling medicine in the warm pavilion under the corridor of the main room, and at the same time took a copy of "Historical Books" to read and play.
The rain outside is getting heavier and heavier, and the dense and crisp sound of "popping and popping" is endless, and the chill seems to be everywhere.
Yu Yu listened to the sound of raindrops hitting the eaves and the blue brick floor, and a thin desolation welled up in her heart, so she listened with one hand on her cheek.
After the medicine was boiled, the jade gardenia was served in a porcelain bowl, iced with cold water, and when the temperature was suitable, some mints were prepared, and then the medicine bowl was carried into the bedroom with a tray.
Lin Jia looked at the medicine bowl in Yu Yu's hand with an embarrassed face, and had no intention of taking it at all.
Yu Yu smiled slightly, took out a translucent green mint candy from her purse, and handed it to Lin Jia's lips with her slender white fingers.
Lin Jia subconsciously wanted to hold Yu Yu's hand, but Yu Yu mischievously dodged away.
She proudly put the mint candy into her mouth, and said with the mint candy in her mouth: "Childe, you drink the medicine, I'll feed you mints again!"
Seeing that Yu Yu coaxed herself as a child, Lin Jia was amused in her heart, but her face was silent, she obediently took the medicine bowl and drank it in one go.
Seeing this, Yu Yu hurriedly took out a mint candy and filled it in Lin Jia's mouth, then quickly shrank back, smiled and said with a mint in his mouth: "I like mints the most, I like the smell of mint the most, do you like it, childe?"
Lin Jia looked at Yu Yu with a complicated expression, and suddenly said in a low voice: "Yu Yu, I'm still a little uncomfortable......"
When Yu Yu heard this, he hurriedly said, "Then what should I do?" Or I-"
Lin Jia glanced at her, lowered her eyes and said, "You still sleep on the brocade couch tonight, it's convenient for me to ask for tea and water at night; Besides, if there is anything wrong with me during the night, it will be convenient for you to call ......."
