Zhao was indignant and asked unrelentingly: "What if you ask about the family house and your relatives and elders?" ”

Qi Xuanyu threw away the dog's tail and grass spikes in his mouth, took out three copper coins from his sleeve, and his face became a little more serious. After a slight pause, he threw the copper coin on the table and repeated it several times. The old lady and Zhao waited with bated breath.

After throwing the last copper coin, Qi Xuanyu's expression suddenly became solemn, and he asked slowly: "The old lady just said that the young lady remembered that she had taken immortal medicine and woke up?" The old lady nodded nervously. Qi Xuanyu frowned and said, "Forgive Xiaosheng for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, there is a portrait of a young lady in your mansion, can you take a look?" ”

"Portrait?" The old lady just wanted to call someone to get it, but then she remembered that of several brothers and sisters in the family, only Sister Yi alone did not let the painter paint the portrait. Zhao also showed an embarrassed look, but the little maid Licorice next to him smiled and said: "The old lady forgot that the third lady is skillful, and she often cuts flowers and birds to give away, and it seems that she has also cut her own small portrait, we have ready-made ones here." ”

The old lady hurriedly said, "Quick, get it!" Licorice said, "Yes, yes, but it will take a while." The old lady urged her to hurry up, and asked another maid to serve tea and fruit snacks, and the three of them waited while eating.

After drinking the third cup of tea, licorice came in from the outside curtain and handed a paper cut more than an inch in size to Qi Xuanyu. When Qi Xuanyu took something, his eyes stopped on Licorice's face, hooked his lips and smiled, and said "Youlao girl" in his mouth, which immediately caused Licorice to blush and heartbeat.

The old lady and Zhao couldn't help but look at each other again...... A dignified five-grade court official, I heard that he is still a celebrity around the emperor, how can he feel ruffian, not a little upright?

Qi Xuanyu put the small statue in the palm of his hand and looked at it for a moment, his eyes flashed, and he nodded again and again: "It seems that I am not wrong, this young lady's life is unspeakably precious, unspeakably expensive!" If my expectations are correct, this life should only be available to the nobles of the tenth generation, and now there is an immortal king who gave her the immortal medicine, which also fulfills this, but ......"

"Just what?" The old lady and Zhao asked in unison.

Qi Xuanyu didn't continue, he stroked his chin with the back of his hand, sometimes nodded and sometimes shook his head, and finally took the small statue into his arms, and said with a smile: "This little statue is really lovely, Xiaosheng's sister likes delicate objects the most, it is better to use it as a hexagram and give it to Xiaosheng's sister." As he spoke, he stood up from his seat and said with a bitter face, "Xiaosheng's stomach hurts very much, maybe he has eaten something bad, you sit down slowly and eat slowly, Xiaosheng is going to the east toilet." After saying that, I saw him tiptoe to the ground and actually flew away in the air.

Zhao was puzzled: "...... The five generations of the Qi family have been passed down alone, isn't Qi Guoshi just his only son? Where did a sister come from? The old lady and Zhao sat silently for a while. Zhao shouted at the door: "Pomegranate, go and take a look, has Mr. Qi come back from the toilet?" ”

Half of his head poked into the door, and a teenage little maid replied: "Big lady, the slave maid saw with her own eyes, Mr. Naqi jumped around on a dozen big locust trees, jumped out of the house wall and disappeared in the blink of an eye, I don't know where he went to the east toilet?" The old lady and Zhao were speechless again, and the little maid stuck out her tongue and withdrew her head from the door.

After a while, Zhao Shi said: "Old Ancestor, now that the matter is obvious, Qi Xuanyu must have pinched his fingers and calculated that something bad had happened, and in the end he was scared away!" ”

The old lady lay back on the soft couch, closed her eyes, and said, "Let me think about this again, you can go back first." ”

At noon, the sun was fine, Zhenzhu brought thick paper and paste, and the two of them began to paste the lattices and windows. At first, He Angelica also helped to paste a few times, but after a while, he found that the real pearl was so quiet that those were all smooth and beautiful, only the two windows that he had pasted were wrinkled, like two patches on new clothes.

Zhen Jing was overjoyed: "Look at yours, there is a big wrinkle here, and it will fall off as soon as the wind blows in two days." I thought you couldn't do it, but it turns out that you also have clumsy times, disillusioned! "He Angelica rolled his eyes, Miss Ben will still plant seedlings and block roads, will you?

Zhenzhu smiled: "Sister doesn't know, our Taoist temple is too far away from the town, and it is difficult to invite a craftsman." Even if they pay a lot of money, people may not be willing to climb to the top of this mountain. Therefore, not only the window paper, but also carpenters, masons, and blacksmiths, we have to make a cameo once in a while, and we are used to doing it with our hands. No matter how skillful my sister's hands are, she can't be confused without experience. You can't intervene here, the sun is so warm today, why don't you go for a walk in front. ”

He Angelica also thought that he was short, and said with a smile: "At this time, the front hall is chanting, I'll listen to it, and you take your time." He walked out.

Zhenjing scratched her cheeks: "Hey, how did she know that it was time for noon class to chant?" ”

Zhenzhu stirred the paste and gave her a blank look: "Who do you ask me and I ask." Then he glanced at the back of Zhenjing's hand, there were still some faint red marks on it, and Zhenzhu couldn't help but admire, "I didn't expect Sister He to have such superb medical skills, it takes more than a month to get better like this with ordinary liniments, what kind of treatment is this?" ”

Zhen Jing shook her hand with a smile and showed off: "Xiao Yi said that this is called 'Golden Needle Acupoint', which is a kind of acupuncture, which has the most immediate effect on external injuries, and it is slower to cure her own cold." I thought that a needle would hurt people to death, but I didn't expect that Liang Sisi didn't hurt at all! ”

Zhenzhu frowned: "It's just that she has such a ability at a young age, and it will inevitably be coveted by people with a heart, Zhenjing, you must remember, don't publicize her." ”

"You know, you two combined, you've said it seventeen times combined! I can now memorize my dreams! If someone asks me why the injury is healed suddenly, I will say that Xiaoyi gave me a bottle of family heirloom medicine! ”

Under the warm sun, He Angelica slowly paced into the Qingxin Hall and heard the "buzzing" chanting sound from the Rite Hall next door. So she sat in a corner, listened playfully to the large, empty abstract sentences of the scriptures, and waited patiently.

Every day after lunch, Taichen must pass by the Qingxin Palace, because there is a large bag of dried meat and dried meat hidden behind the statue of Sanqing.

Every night after class, Taichen must pass through the backyard, because there is a pot of Shaoxing old wine hidden in the courtyard wall. But the night before, the pot of wine had been taken away by Zhenjing. Even if there is no wine, meat is still indispensable, and greed is Taichen's biggest problem.

Although she wants to borrow Jinyiwei's hand to clean up the dust, she is only a ten-year-old girl now, and it is unwise to have any contact with Jinyiwei.

However, she "inadvertently" met Mrs. Taichen here, and said hello and said a few words, who would notice? He Angelica smiled slightly, since he couldn't pick up Jinyiwei to find Taichen, then he could only turn around and pick up Taichen to find them, if he could make Taichen have some kind of "misunderstanding", it would be even more wonderful.

As long as she pretends to be an innocent and ignorant child, even if something unfortunate happens to Taichen later, even Taichen herself will not doubt an ignorant child, and can only sigh that she will be wrong, unlucky, and throw herself into the net and kill herself......

The afternoon sun shines through the window lattice and hits the girl in the corner of the temple, making her look even more pale and lovely, like a porcelain doll.

At this moment, the girl was half-hanging her head, as if she was thinking about something intently, and people couldn't bear to break her peace. Although she only wore a green cloth jacket skirt and only a water-painted wooden hairpin on her head, it was not as decent as the Taoist aunt who had a little money, but no matter whether it was a man or a woman, whether it was a monk or a layman, as long as she glanced at that corner, she could no longer take her eyes off it.

A beautiful woman in Huaishui, Duan Xiaolou sighed in his heart.

A really handsome girl, how unfair God is, but giving her such a good look, Taichen is ashamed of herself in her heart.

Duan Xiaolou and Taichen walked into the Qingxin Hall one after another, and at the same time looked at He Angelica in the corner for a while, and then came back to their senses. Taichen smiled in surprise: "Ah, Infinite Heavenly Venerable, how can Master Duan have time to come here?" Are you still used to living in the Taoist temple? ”

Duan Xiaolou bowed his head slightly and said, "It's very good to be hospitality." Taichen wanted to talk a few more words, but Duan Xiaolou had already stepped forward a few steps, came to He Angelica's side, and said with a smile: "Look at the girl's demeanor, it almost makes people think that you are going to turn into an immortal and ride the wind." I don't know what Miss He is thinking, can you tell me and listen to it? ”

He Danggui glanced at Taichen behind him, lowered his eyes and smiled: "It's just that I'm here for a while, unlike a busy person like Gongzi, the little woman has a lot of spare time." ”

Duan Xiaolou took out two delicately painted snow porcelain vials from his sleeve cage, handed them to He Angelica, and said softly: "I patronized and listened to you yesterday, but I forgot about this. You have to take good care of yourself when you are recovering from a serious illness, but the mountains are remote, and you can't find good ones in Langzhong and medicinal materials. These two bottles of medicine are made by the Pharmacist Hall of Yingtianfu, and I don't need them left or right, so you can keep them and eat them. ”

Yakushido? He Angelica's eyebrows jumped, he raised his hand and took the two porcelain bottles and opened them one by one, re-plugged the cork, handed them back to Duan Xiaolou, and said, "I can't ask for such a valuable thing." ”

Duan Xiaolou didn't think that she could see the value of the medicine at a casual glance, thinking that she was just unwilling to accept things from strange men, so she smiled and said: "There is no other meaning here, it is just a small gift, and two bottles of medicine are not worth one or two silver, girl, please accept it with peace of mind." ”

He Angelica stared at the two porcelain bottles, sneering in her heart, she not only knew the ingredients of the pills in the bottles, but she was also very familiar with the pharmacy. In all fairness, these two bottles of medicine are very beneficial to her body, and even if she only takes one pill, she can withstand ten days and a half of recuperation. But He Angelica still firmly turned his head sideways, closed his eyes lightly and said: "Thank you for your kindness, Gongzi keeps it for himself, I don't deserve this." ”

Duan Xiaolou was stunned for a moment, and when he heard He Angelica's tone, he suddenly became impulsive, thinking that he had offended the other party by taking the liberty of giving gifts, and he was secretly annoyed in his heart.

He has always dealt with women from small jasper families, and it is also a very common practice to give things to women. Under normal circumstances, the woman who receives the thing is a prevarication, and then puts the thing away with a touched face and tears in her eyes, and no woman will be angry because of it. He suddenly realized in his heart, it turned out that he couldn't give things to everyone's girlfriends? Is there any special meaning to give away? Duan Xiaolou shouted in his heart, he didn't mean anything special!

Taichen came up from the side and relieved Duan Xiaolou with a smile: "Ah, little girls love to be coquettish, Master Duan doesn't have to take it to heart." Poor Dao is in charge of the medicine house, and he will grab a few pairs of good medicine for Miss He to eat later, and Miss He will go to the fire and let her talk to Lord Duan in the future. ”

Duan Xiaolou was just about to say something, when a low laugh suddenly came from the door of the main hall. The three of them turned their heads to look at the same time, and saw Liao Zhiyuan wearing a blue power suit, leaning on the door frame, staring at He Angelica's face for a long time, and said: "Duan Shao, just now everyone went out together, and you suddenly said that you saw a beautiful bird flying over and wanted to catch it and raise it." So we all stood there, staring at you. It wasn't until my legs were sore that I still didn't see you come back, and the boss asked me to come looking for you. Dare to ask Duan Shao, where did your bird go? How did you stumble here? ”

He Angelica's expression did not change, but Duan Xiaolou's face turned red, and he said stupidly: "Lynx, you will suffocate if you don't speak, I passed by the main hall and saw Miss He inside, what's wrong with coming in and saying hello." ”

Liao Zhiyuan ignored him, looked at He Angelica with a smile, and said enthusiastically: "I'm not afraid of the girl laughing, although our Duan Shao is not a small boss, he has never been able to get a daughter-in-law, and he is also a dead brain, and he will not make girls happy at all." If he does something stupid, the girl just thinks of him as a stupid cow. ”

He Angelica just nodded slightly, noncommittal.

Liao Zhiyuan and Duan Xiaolou saw that she didn't have the clever words they had when they first met, thinking that she was still annoyed by their frivolous words in her heart, and because Taichen was there, they couldn't say anything more, so they said goodbye and left together. When Duan Xiaolou went out to leave, he glanced back at the silhouette bathed in sunlight under the window, and stepped out of the threshold unhappily. Until now, he can't understand why He Angelica suddenly said that he would change his face.

Taichen saw it really on the side, and the Duan Gongzi who said in his heart must have taken a fancy to this little girl, so he came to show his courtesy. It is really strange to say that since these dignitaries moved in, they have been running out of the Taoist temple four or five times a day, looking at their hurried posture, they do not look like literati and ink writers who travel the mountains and rivers at all. Moreover, the Taoist temple is poor and bad, and I don't see a few people who come here to play all year round. What are the origins of these distinguished guests? What is the purpose of their stay here?
