Chapter 117: The Shy Anti-Itching Method
"As the saying goes, experience is really know," He Angelica smiled gratefully, "If it weren't for the training of the fourth sister, how could I have invented this itching method that Daddy Wu praised as 'can be passed on'?" Ah, Jiugu, look at Mama Tang," He Angelica pointed to Mama Tang, who suddenly looked like a gecko, with her feet and head attached to the wall, and explained, "My set of four pieces of brocade is to imitate the movements of four insects, in addition to crickets, bees and butterflies, there are also spiders that Mama is demonstrating, infinitely close to nature in imitation, and then the itch around the body is scattered into the infinite natural space, in order to achieve the ultimate goal of expelling itching." ”
…… Isn't it a toad, but a cricket? Jiu Gu sneered, and then said worriedly: "Are they going to jump like this for two or three days?" Sister, how can her body withstand it! ”
He Angelica said proudly: "Don't worry, my four duanjin is three movements and one static, as long as they are tired of jumping and flying, they just need to stick to the wall like a spider and crawl slowly, which is equivalent to resting." At this time, the old lady and Dr. Wu also found a wall and began to climb, He Angelica shook his head, and loudly corrected them and said, "Ancestor, your posture is not standardized, you should use your feet against the wall, and your forehead should also be against the wall!" Daddy Wu, you should also stick tightly when you crawl, and there should be no gaps! ”
Doctor Wu turned his head when he heard this, made a bitter face, and asked with a snort: "Third Miss Wow, Ah Sneeze!" The old man has a problem with joint pain, this wall is too cold, can I climb that brocade screen? Ahh ”
He Angelica pondered for a while, and said with a square chin: "Although I haven't climbed the screen either, but everything is improving and progressing, and then applicable to the public, Dad, you can try to climb the screen." As soon as the words fell, the old lady and Mama Tang, who also thought that the wall was too cold, also wanted to run to climb the screen, but Dr. Wu, who was closest to the screen, had already occupied one side, and the area of the screen was too small for two people to climb at the same time...... The old lady and Mama Tang glanced at each other, and then Mama Tang went back to climb the wall and gave the other screen to the old lady to use.
He Angelica carefully explained to Jiu Gu: "In fact, when I climb, I will add some upward climbing movements, but the three of them are old, so they can only climb sideways, of course, the effect of itching will also be reduced." By the way, Aunt Jiu, have you found a way to stop hiccups? I see that the old ancestor is hiccuping and can't hold it anymore! ”
Jiu Gu nodded and said, "Third Miss, you burn the stove first, and I'll go and give them the things to stop hiccups!" As he spoke, he stepped forward and asked each of them to choke on a big black pill, and told them not to swallow it.
The old lady climbed the screen and asked with tears in her eyes: "Aunt Jiu, what is this ball made of, bitter and spicy, fishy and smelly!" It's unpalatable! ”
Jiu Gu hesitated for a moment, and replied euphemistically, "Sister, you are still ...... I don't know, I've tried my best to pick out the clean ones and bring them here. ”
Mama Tang climbed the wall and shouted at the wall: "Old lady, the old slave said that you can't continue to indulge Miss Four, you don't listen to the old slave, and now you also have skin pain!" Leave her alone, there will be more regrets waiting for you in the future! Let's see, in the future, who else in our family can cure the little demon star of the fourth lady! Ahh ”
The old lady knocked her head on the screen and said hatefully: "This is the good daughter taught by the second daughter-in-law!" Now it seems that if she is not sent to the water business concept for training, she will really turn the sky upside down! ”
He Angelica turned the stove on the stove in a few moments, and Jiugu walked over and stewed a clay pot on the stove, took away the lid of the clay pot, turned to the old lady and said, "This is the sour grass soup I have prepared to relieve yawning, and after boiling it in the stove, the smell spreads into the air, and it can relieve the temporary sleep." The third lady and I are not poisoned, so it is not advisable to smell too much of this sour smell, otherwise we will be very excited at night and it will be difficult to sleep, so it is better to wait at the door of the ear room, sister, if you need to call us again. ”
After the old lady agreed, Jiugu pulled He Angelica out of the ear room, put down a soft curtain to block the smell of sour grass, and then turned around to find two small benches, two wet cloth towels and He Angelica. Two people sat next to the curtain, one on the left and one on the right, each covering their mouths and noses with a damp cloth.
The old lady's voice came from inside the curtain: "Sister Yi, how is the environment and food of the water business view, and how is the cultivation of the Dao Gu there?" Old body remembers that you once said that there was a sinner who was arrested by the official messenger for illegal drugs there? ”
He Angelica pressed his Yingxiang acupoint with a damp cloth, and replied one by one: "The environment, where the mountains and rivers are beautiful and the scenery is pleasant, the mountains and flowers are splendid in the morning, the tired birds return to the nest in the evening, and the air is even cooler and refreshing, which is really a rare paradise for cultivating body and mind." The food, naturally, is not comparable to the family, but if you eat a little plain, your brain will not be confused, and you are very energetic when you read and write, not to mention that in the half month that I lived there, I didn't have a word of complaint about the food there...... because I had never eaten the food there."
Suddenly, there was a "bang" sound of the screen falling to the ground in the house, and then Mama Tang's voice: "Third Miss, you don't have to come in!" It was the old lady who overpowered the screen, but Dr. Wu had already dodged it in time, and no one was hurt! Then the old lady's voice came again: "Sister Yi, you continue to talk about yours, I'll listen." ”
He Angelica scratched his head and said: "When it comes to the cultivation of monks, I am a ten-year-old girl, who is not deeply involved in the world, and even more illiterate, how dare I evaluate the depth of the way of the famous teachers such as Taixi and Taishan?" However, I heard that almost everyone in the vicinity of Rabbit Town knows that there is a Taishan Master (who specializes in usury) in the Water Business Concept, ah, he is really a well-known big man! As for the Taichen master who refined the five stones, I heard that he had already been escorted to the capital, and now the entire Taoist temple has also been rectified and cleaned up by the government, and he thinks it is the most pure. But Ancestor, do you really have to send your fourth sister to the Water Business Temple immediately? Let's get together with the eldest sister and the second sister to exchange new experiences, in fact, we are all curious about the fourth sister's collectible character......"
"No! What will be gathered! Are you still planning to party? Ahh The old lady exclaimed angrily, "You are not allowed to say a word to her until she is better!" Hmph, Sister Yi, you don't have to intercede for her, I just want to send her away immediately, and I won't bring all these people in the family when I turn around! Jiugu, go and call Pan Jingyang and Guanghang! Jiu Gu jumped up from the small bench and left.
Oh? The four major nursing homes of Luofu are accompanied? He Angelica raised his eyebrows, so exciting, in case Sun Meiniang learned about it, I was afraid that there would be waves again. After the ninth aunt walked away, she persuaded her: "Ancestor, let's wait for the fourth sister's itching to heal before sending it away, in case she scratches on the road and delays the trip, won't it damage the reputation of the boudoir if people see it......"
"Can't wait!" The old lady interrupted her harshly, "I have my own opinions on this matter, and there is no need to reconsider!" Also, Sister Yi, you have to keep your mouth tight, and you must not leak half a word to the outside world, especially with your second sister and second aunt! ”
He Danggui couldn't help but exclaim: "Old ancestor, you want to send away your fourth sister, don't you even know that you will meet your second aunt?" Doesn't that sound like a good idea? ”
The old lady sneezed twice in a row, first complaining that the taste in her mouth was too strange and unpalatable, complaining that the sour taste in the air was too pungent, and finally complaining that the four pieces of brocade were too tired, and Mama Tang's soft voice calmed her down. Then the old lady's voice came through the soft curtain: "Old Wu, you are not an outsider anyway, I will arrange this matter in front of you, you, Sister Yi'er, Jiugu, Pan Jingyang and Guanghang are the insiders who know that Sister Shao'er will be sent to the Taoist temple except for me and Hong Jiang, and the three of them I will ask you later, you two will each swear to me first, and you will not reveal this secret to anyone." ”
"Secret?" He Angelica's surprised voice passed through the curtain, "The fourth sister and a big living person are gone, and the second aunt has no choice but to rush to turn the whole Luo Mansion over, how can it be a secret?" ”
The old lady said in a deep voice: "Hongjiang has proposed a proper method to me yesterday, originally I couldn't make up my mind to send Sister Shao'er away, but I didn't expect that her inferior nature would be difficult to change to the point where it is so bad." Hongjiang is right, this time she must be taken care of with a heavy hand, and she must act in secret, and she can't let the second child and the two of them know, otherwise they will feel sorry for their daughter, and they will run to the Taoist temple twice in three days, sending food, drink, and that set of juggling things; If Sister Shao'er shouts that the days are hard and the Taoist temple is bored, they will be busy picking them up, then our good intentions will not work at all! I lived in Sanqingguan for a while, so I knew that the Taoist temple was the most tempering place, and it was perfect for a child like her who had gone astray! ”
He Angelica yawned silently, and then said: "It's not so stuffy that you can't panic, the masters of the Water Business View are all very enthusiastic, and they will definitely not let the guests who stay with them feel bored." But Ancestor, you should tell me in detail about the method that Mama proposed to you, we have a good caliber, so that we will not be in front of the second aunt, you know me, I am not very good at lying. ”
The old lady insisted: "Then you promise not to leak this matter!" Old Wu, you swear first! ”
Doctor Wu's voice was panting, and he didn't know which of the four brocades he was practicing, so he said loudly: "Huh, the old man promises not to tell others about the fourth lady's entry into the Taoist temple, phew, otherwise the old man will catch the poisonous powder handkerchief again!" Ahh ”
He Angelica's timid voice also said intermittently: "Then I swear too...... Well, if you tell me about the fourth sister, let me ...... Go back to the West Cross Courtyard that has been plagued by rats and burned down! ”
"Ah, old lady!" Mama Tang's voice sounded, "The third lady's residence has been burned down, and we haven't arranged a new place for her yet!" ”
The old lady was bored for a moment, and suddenly said: "Let her go to live in Sister Shao'er's Taoyao Courtyard, and when Sister Shao'er comes back from her reform in the future, let her mother choose another courtyard for her." ”
This time, He Angelica was really taken aback: "Taoyao Courtyard? That courtyard sits on thirty acres of perennial peach blossom forest, which is the most poetic residence in Luodong Mansion, where can it be my turn to live? Besides, how dare I occupy the courtyard of my fourth sister? Turn around and let the second aunt know, shouldn't she ...... me" At this point, her voice weakened and gradually became silent, and the old lady and others in the ear room could almost see the third lady's cautious and timid attitude.
"Sister Yi, don't be afraid, although your second aunt is more straightforward, her heart for you is the same as for Sister Shao, you don't have to worry about it, this is one of them." The old lady's reassuring voice came, "Second, I heard from the person in Taoyao Courtyard who was caught by Hongjiang that in addition to Diao Yam and dumb medicine, Sister Shao'er also collected all kinds of other poisons in Taoyao Courtyard, some of which were even buried deep in the ground, hmph, this time I must destroy all those medicines!" Ahh However, on the bright side, I spread out to search for those indiscriminate things, and our family has a lot of mouthfuls, which is inevitably not conducive to your sister's reputation, so Sister Yi, you can move into Taoyao Courtyard to live in it, and I will take the opportunity to renovate the courtyard and decorate the house, so that people can get those poisons out...... If your second aunt comes to find fault and make trouble, I will scold her for you, okay? ”
Oh, so that's the case, He Angelica couldn't help but smile, she said, there is no good thing in the world for nothing, this is the best Taoyao courtyard in Luofu, Sun Meiniang took a lot of effort to help her daughter get it, why is the old lady willing to take away her granddaughter's yard and give it to herself in vain? However, for the peach blossom forest behind Taoyao Courtyard that can be used for martial arts training, it doesn't sound bad to talk to Sun Meiniang in advance...... So He Angelica said in a low voice: "Everything is arranged by the ancestors, and I dare not obey." ”
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the hall, and Jiugu led Pan Jingyang and Guanghang in, Jiugu approached the curtain and said, "Sister, Pan is guarding them, and they also have something to report to you." At this time, He Angelica sat aside with his small bench and made way for them.
"Ahh What's going on? The old lady is now a little bit of a cup, and when she hears the words "something to report", her heart jumps.
Pan Jingyang smiled at the curtain and said: "Don't be surprised, old lady, it's the two young masters Peng from the Luo Mansion in the capital who are here, and the second lady just sent them to the guest room in Nanyuan to rest, but they are going to Yang to study at Chengxu Academy this time, and they must be staying here for a long time." The second lady wanted to ask you which courtyard was suitable for arranging, and she didn't dare to come to the bamboo courtyard without permission to disturb your retreat, but when she heard that we were coming here, she brought it to me and asked me to ask. ”
