Chapter 183: Mountain Days (3)

"That's it, second brother, those shops were all earned by you at the beginning, and they were defeated like this, I feel distressed when I look at it, are you really willing?" Mu San also echoed, among the four of them, Tie Boss, he and Bai Zhanpeng's family are all deeply involved in martial arts, and the grange and shops in the family are all taken care of by special people, only the Zhao family is a merchant family, if Zhao Fengnian does not recognize a swordsman as a master, it is difficult to enter and exit the rivers and lakes, and they are all opportunities to intersect, they have known each other for seven or eight years, and they are almost watching how the Zhao family prospered under him, and they are naturally reluctant to give up.

Zhao Fengnian took a shallow sip of warm tea, looked at the blue mountains and forests in the distance, and was silent.

Mu San was indignant, "Second brother, you don't really take that vicious woman's words seriously, the Zhao family looks like this, but you have half of the credit, how can it be regarded as you robbed her son's family business, seriously calculated, how can half of this shop be yours, if you take it back, it will be sold, and it will be good to leave it to the little nephew in the future." ”

Zhao Fengnian still didn't speak, raised his hand and slowly refilled the tea for them, provoking Bai Zhanpeng to take a sip and drink it all, and said angrily in a low voice, "You won't live in this place where birds don't for a few months, and then polish your sharpness, you really plan to guard a small workshop and a village woman... Well, just live it for the rest of your life. ”

Zhao Fengnian glanced at him and said lightly, "Isn't this good?" You don't need to guard against anyone poisoning your food, you don't need to intrigue, you don't need to deal with the government, you don't need to bury yourself in your account books all day without a moment of respite. There is a small workshop, enough for a rich family to live, a virtuous and considerate wife who will never abandon me at any time, a child who is about to be born, and a simple and enthusiastic neighbor, so that life is as rich and glorious as it was at the beginning, but it is an empty and false life, I don't know how much better. ”

Bai Zhanpeng and Mu San glanced at each other, they all didn't know how to persuade each other, they were silent for a moment, and then looked at Zhao Fengnian, cloth clothes and shoes, sitting in the shade of the tree, holding a cyan tea bowl, although it was far from the appearance of the original brocade clothes, but the expression was rarely indifferent, and they suddenly sighed together...

Dinner was held in the main hall of the second courtyard, and the family did not get up because of two more guests, they sat around as usual, with five dishes and one soup on the table, snow-white steamed rice, fragrant pies, Rui Xue served the rice with her own hands, and sandwiched the dishes for An Bo and Wu Yu, the old one, and greeted Bai Zhanpeng and Mu San not to be polite, and then ate by themselves.

Bai Zhanpeng had been here before, but he was used to the "unruly" dinner table of the Zhao family, and he ate with chopsticks, not polite at all, Mu San was still a little uncomfortable at first, but he was already cheerful, and soon he smiled and ate happily, and in the end, he even had a dispute with Wu Yu for the ownership of the last pie, and after Rui Xue hit Wu Yu with chopsticks and established his victory, he ate it triumphantly, and sighed three times when he was full.

There was nothing to say all night, and in the early morning of the second day, when the sky was just dark, the rooster in the village woke up everyone, and the peasants went to the field with their hoes, and took advantage of the fact that the sun had not come out to hoe the weeds in the field.

Bai Zhanpeng and Mu San got up early, went out and shook around the village, and met a few children running to practice martial arts, Mu San didn't know whether he finally remembered to be ashamed of the pie last night, or wanted to show his ability, so he actually gave some advice.

Da Zhuang and Kuroko are purely for exercise, and their kung fu is naturally average, and even an ordinary thief can't catch up. Wu Yu is different, Rui Xue supported him to learn martial arts at the beginning, just in case he encountered characters like Sun Erniang on the way out of the future to travel or scientific expeditions, and some self-protection methods, so as not to be wrapped in human flesh buns. But Wu Yu escaped from such a dangerous situation, how could he be satisfied with self-preservation, whether it was from Zhao Fengnian, Bai Zhanpeng, and Amber who had just settled, what he learned was always a killing move, a killing move that would hit with one blow!

Therefore, Mu San only fought with him for a few rounds, so he couldn't help but be impressed, only sighing that with the end of his desperate effort, his ability to squeeze into the third-rate level of the rivers and lakes Wu Yu frowned and was dissatisfied, so Mu San became their new master again.

A few of the big and small were tired and sweaty, and went back to the yard together, and the small ones went back to the backyard to wash, Mu San was on a whim, and regardless of the panic of Zhang Dahe and others, he helped move a few plates of steaming tofu in the workshop, and then sat in the courtyard with everyone and ate a bowl of snow soup and a fire.

Zhao Fengnian sat in the account room and settled the accounts of the past few days with the stewards of several restaurants, looked out of the window, saw the two close friends like this, smiled faintly, and did not stop them, they are all stubborn people, if they can't realize their love for such a peaceful day, how can they not give up persuading themselves to go back to the prosperous but empty mansion.

After breakfast, Zhao Fengnian and Mu San took matters into their own hands, set up a simple earthen stove under the main landlord's compartment who was alone in the washroom, threw a large number of medicinal materials into the cauldron, and the large bucket of well water was also poured down, burning for more than an hour, until the potion in the pot turned red and yellow, Amber put down the plaster formed in his hand, came to the pot with his backhand, raised his nose and sniffed, and then instructed Yuncaiyue to put the potion into the wooden barrel of the washroom.

Cui Niang helped Rui Xue get dressed, endured the heat and sat in the wooden barrel, using a wooden ladle to scoop up the potion from time to time and pour it on the heart of her head. Rui Xue was so smoked by the strong smell of medicine that she wanted to vomit frequently, but she also gritted her teeth and insisted on getting rid of the poison, not to mention the extreme cold pain when the poison was made, just for the sake of the child's health, she also had to survive it. After steaming like this for two quarters of an hour, she gradually felt as if there was a trace of cold in her body, as if it slowly penetrated out, and melted into the potion, and the depths of her bones seemed to have heat, no longer as cold as before, this feeling was extremely intense, not to mention pain, it was itchy, in short, she couldn't bear to moan in pain.

Cui Niang was a little frightened, her subordinates stopped watering, and asked in a low voice, "Sister, but what's uncomfortable?" ”

Rui Xue reluctantly shook her head, "Sister-in-law, don't stop, I can bear it." ”

Zhao Fengnian heard it outside the window, and was so anxious that he chased after Amber and asked, "Amber, but something is wrong?" ”

Amber glared, "Now I know that I'm in a hurry, what did I do in the first place, if you weren't careful, why would the snow girl suffer like this?" ”

Zhao Fengnian couldn't wait to stomp his feet, when is it, this old man is still in the mood to say this, Amber picked up the small teapot next to him, took a sip of herbal tea, and then said slowly, "Don't worry, the snow girl is poisoned for a short time, just hold on for another half an hour." But you, I'm afraid you'll have to soak for two or three hours. ”

As long as Rui Xue is fine, what does it matter if she soaks for a few days, Zhao Fengnian let go, thanked him again and again, went to the window to guard, and whispered to persuade Rui Xue to hold on, and finally when the time came, Rui Xue came out of the barrel sweating profusely, changed her dress, and put a plaster on her navel, and just fell asleep when she returned to the house.

Zhao Fengnian is a lot of trouble to detoxify, not to mention the doubling of medicinal materials, during the soaking process, Bai Zhanpeng and Mu San have to constantly input internal force for them, helping them to use their luck to force poison, and finally Anbo said "good". All three of them were so tired that they turned pale, and they couldn't lift half a finger.

Rui Xue had already gotten up at this time, only to feel full of strength, walking as if she wanted to jump twice, she thought that Amber had added something good to the medicinal herbs, and specially stepped forward to salute and thank you, "Amber, thank you old man for coming to the rescue." ”

Amber smiled and waved his hand, "We don't have anything to eat for free in our house, and my old man always has to show his hands." Otherwise, you won't have the face to ask you to cook those delicious foods in the future. ”

Rui Xue raised her head, took a long breath, felt the slight heat between her chest and abdomen, and couldn't help but rejoice, "Amber's medical skills are really brilliant, just a bucket of potions removed the poison on my body, and it seems that I have a lot of strength in my body." Amber, did you add something good to the potion? ”

Amber raised his eyebrows in confusion, pulled her wrist and carefully examined her for a long time, and said, "The medicinal juice is only for detoxification, there is nothing surprising about it, you are so full of strength now, I am afraid that you have practiced some qi cultivation kung fu before, and this medicinal power is completely stimulated, so you can feel this way." ”

"Qi Cultivation Kung Fu?" Rui Xue remembered that there was indeed something strange about her when she was reborn, the previous owner of this body was afraid that she had really practiced, but she had never inherited any memories except for the scene by the lake, and she had nothing to gain if she wanted to break her head, so she simply threw it behind her head and said with a smile, "Amber didn't know, I was seriously ill and forgot a lot of things, I only remember that I was born as a maid, and I may have accompanied my master to learn kung fu for a few days before, but I don't know." Amber worked hard for our husband and wife today, and I cooked a few good dishes in the evening, and then moved the jar of good wine, Amber will definitely eat more. ”

Amber's eyes narrowed into a line with a smile, and he stroked his beard and said straight, "Okay, good, the steamed fish dish from yesterday was good, let's make another plate." ”

Rui Xue responded, and saw that Zhao Fengnian and the three of them were sitting cross-legged in the house to recover their internal strength, so they went straight to the stove, Amber looked at her figure and turned the corner of the house, a flash of light flashed in her old eyes, this girl has a lot of secrets, but who doesn't have some secrets?

Zhao Fengnian's detoxification lasted for three days in a row, An Bo announced that it was done, Bai Zhanpeng and Mu San, who were so happy that they were tired and tired, cheered, Zhang Dahe led people to dismantle the stove, clean up the yard again, and put a large round table under the laurel tree in the southwest corner, Ruixue was busy frying and cooking for more than an hour, and ten good dishes were served, and the blue and white porcelain bowl was just filled with lotus white, and a burst of laughter was heard outside the courtyard, and then suddenly jumped into a person.

Wu Yu immediately protected his sister behind him, Rui Xue was amused, patted his tense shoulder, and motioned him to look under the courtyard wall, it turned out that Zhao Fengnian had already hugged the black-faced man who jumped in, and slapped each other's backs with a bang. It is evident that they know each other and have a very good relationship.
