087 That's how it works
After Yin Hai said hello to Hengyu, he fled from this place without delay.
When passing a teahouse, he suddenly got off his horse, entered the teahouse, and went straight to the second floor.
He sat down at a tea table near the window, and startled the absent-minded Liu Xun: "How do you know I'm here?" β
"You left the house early in the morning, where else can you be if you are not here?" Yin Hai lifted the teapot and poured tea for himself.
"I'm used to eating the tea here...... It's just a matter of passing the time when you have nothing to do. β
Yin Hai let out an "oh" and looked at the bun shop across the street with a smile through the open window lattice.
In front of the shop, Miao Niangzi was bowing her head to clean up the cage drawer, and the young man came over and said with a smile and whispered: "Shopkeeper, look over there...... Mr. Liu sat for another half a day......"
Hearing this, Miao Niangzi subconsciously looked at the teahouse opposite.
Suddenly met her gaze, Liu Xun subconsciously dodged, and the next moment forced himself to look back calmly, smiling and nodding at her.
Miao Niangzi was stunned for a moment, then nodded at him, and then turned around and walked towards the hall.
Liu Xun's gaze followed her figure until his vision was blocked and he could no longer see her.
Yin Hai leaned back in his chair, ate tea and sighed: "Sure enough, this love affair is more interesting to watch others fall into." β
Liu Xun was obviously uncomfortable on his face, but he rarely did not blindly deny it.
Since you have already made up your mind, there is no way to avoid it.
In the bun shop, the guy was still tirelessly following behind his shopkeeper, whispering: "...... Shopkeeper, how do I think Mr. Liu is a drunkard who doesn't mean to drink. β
"What nonsense?"
"I didn't say anything, how did you think of it? It seems that the shopkeeper's heart is much clearer than mine...... "guy" hey" laughed, and said hard: "Mr. Liu is a talent, so knowledgeable, and even more rare is that he is approachable, without the arrogance of a half-literati...... Such a good person, if I were a woman, I would want to marry! β
"Alright, let's get to work!" Miao Niangzi glanced at the guy, cut off his mantra-like chatter, and walked quickly to the backyard.
When the bamboo curtain separating the front hall and the backyard was raised, Miao Niangzi couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth, and her steps were inexplicably brisk.
She rolled up her sleeves, went to the well, easily carried a bucket of water, poured it into a wooden basin, and squatted down to wash the vegetables.
The water in the basin was as clear as a mirror, and she was suddenly stunned when she looked at her smiling face reflected on the water.
After a few moments, she poured half a basket of pureed carrots into the basin and scattered the smiling face.
In the teahouse, Liu Xun looked out of the window twice and three times, but failed to see the familiar figure again.
"It's time to sit for a while...... Yin Hai nodded beside him and said: "Tomorrow, you and I will need to go to Zhuangzi outside the city with the general, and I expect to live for seven or eight days." β
He added: "It's just that there has been no war recently, and you suddenly stopped eating this bun and didn't come to drink tea...... Will the Miao shopkeeper not be used to it? β
Even though he was ridiculing himself, Liu Xun was also reminded, and coughed lightly: "I'll talk to her about ......"
"That's not a joke!"
"That's it...... How? β
Yin Hai leaned over slightly, and said step by step: "Imagine one or two, if you can see a person coming for you every day, the wind, frost, rain and snow have never stopped, and you have unconsciously become accustomed to this person appearing every day, but suddenly one day, everything was as usual the day before, and the next day suddenly disappeared, and you didn't know where to go for many days, how do you feel?" β
Liu Xun Zhengse thought for a moment: "I must think that he has suffered a sudden change or emergency...... Could it be dead? β
"......" Yin Hai was silent for a moment: "No matter what conjecture you make, in short, you must inevitably worry about your stomach and be stunned." β
Liu Xun understood his intentions after realizing it, and couldn't help but say in a suspicious tone: "Could it be that you are fishing for the Pei family girl like this?" β
Yin Hai almost squirted out half of the tea that he had just drunk: "How can you generalize about completely different things?" β
Liu Xun looked at him deeply: "Then I hope you won't be disappointed in the future......"
Yin Hai ignored it completely, and said to his adviser: "Then do you agree with this method?" β
"Ahem, give it a try...... It doesn't hurt either. β
β¦β¦
Early the next morning, outside the gate of the Hou Mansion, the carriages and horses were ready.
Hengyu was taken by Mrs. Xiao and walked out of the house, and saw Xiao Mu standing in front of the horse wearing a dark cloak.
"Mother." Xiao Mu saluted Mrs. Xiao, his eyes fell on Hengyu, and when he saw that she was dressed thickly, he felt satisfied.
"Today's wind is urgent, I'm afraid it's going to rain when I look at the sky, why don't you take the car too?" Heng Yu proposed: "I can take my own carriage, and Master Hou can ride with his wife." β
Before Xiao Mu could speak, Mrs. Xiao had already spoken in front of her.
But he said disgustedly: "I don't want to sit with this stinky boy-"
"I'm so bored all the way, I'm going to talk to my family Ah Heng." She held Hengyu's hand affectionately and said with a smile: "Can you let him sit in your carriage?" β
Heng Yu had no opinion, and nodded immediately.
"Mother, sonβ"
As soon as Xiao Mu's refusal began, he was glared back by Mrs. Xiao: "Ah Heng is kind-hearted, you don't want to be uninteresting." β
He said: "I see that you seem to have lost some weight recently, and I asked Doctor Yan last time, and said that you need to take care of yourself, why don't you even know how to cherish your body?" The horse is so easy to ride, must it be forced to blow the cold wind? Or do you think that if you have a handsome face, you have to show it off all the time? β
The last sentence of "......" can be called a snake hitting seven inches for Xiao Mu, and it is particularly deadly, so he immediately stopped his mouth and obeyed Hengyu's carriage on the ground.
Looking at the back of him being forced to get into the car, Heng Yu unconsciously showed a smile.
"The stinky boy has a stubborn temper, so he has to treat it like this......" Mrs. Xiao said softly as she pulled her into the carriage.
Hengyu nodded subconsciously: "Yes." β
It's just that I feel that something is not quite right-
How is this a bit like how her grandmother felt when she taught her sister-in-law how to handle her brother......?
Mrs. Xiao's eyes were already full of smiles, and the corners of her mouth were about to rise to the back of her ears.
When Xiao Mu's carriage was moving, Yin Hai suddenly came in.
"What are you doing?" Xiao Mu, who was sitting precariously, frowned and looked at his increasingly annoying subordinates.
"Subordinates take care of the general."
Xiao Mu glanced at the position where he was sitting, and his eyes were somewhat disgusted.
"The interior of the car is really elegant, there is no incense, only the fragrance of the yellow plum ......" Yin Hai touched a plum on the coffee table as he spoke.
Xiao Mu, who sat up straight and put his hands on his knees, frowned.
"There's still a script here, the general wants to see the relief?" Yin Hai picked up the notebook on the side.
"Put it down."
"Don't read the script...... That subordinate makes a pot of tea? Master Ji's tea looks good......"
Xiao Mu looked at his hand to touch the teaspoon, and said in a fixed voice, "Take your claws away." β
Yin Hai, who was frantically tempting on the edge of being kicked off the carriage, didn't have time to make any more moves, only to hear that the person sitting opposite had given the final death ultimatum: "Either don't touch anything, or roll out of the car yourself." β
Yin Hai immediately withdrew his hands and meditated with a smile.
The group did not stop all the way and arrived at the hot spring Zhuangzi at the end of noon.
I entered the village, but I had just settled down for a while, and I asked the servants to prepare the meal, when suddenly a guest came to the door.
Heng Yu and Xiao Mu came to the hall before and after and saw the visitor.
"Yan Jin? How did you get here? Heng Yuqi said.
"There is also a Zhuangzi in the clan nearby, and I have come to take a look when I have nothing to do recently...... I saw a carriage and horses coming here from a distance, and when I saw it, I felt that the momentum was extraordinary, so I came to inquire curiously, and when I saw Deputy General Yin, I realized that Xiao Hou was here in person! β
Yan Jin arched his hand holding the folding fan and said with a smile: "It's really a coincidence!" β
Xiao Mu was silent: "It's really a coincidence. β
"As far as I know, this is the only hot spring in Yingzhou, and the Hou Ye has no leisure to fight all year round, so this time I came here to recuperate?"
Heng Yu said in front of him: "It's to treat the cold disease on my body, because Aunt Xiao is also there, Master Hou is filial, so he came with him." β
Hearing this, Xiao Mu raised his eyes slightly and looked at the girl.
She smiled profusely, not in the slightest that she was guarding against anyone.
"I see." Yan Jin said sourly: "My family's little seventeen is so blessed, I haven't had the honor to soak in this hot spring." β
Xiao Mu: "If Yan Langjun is interested, he can come over at any time." β
Yan Jinxi said: "In this way, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate!" β
Looking between the two without a trace, Heng Yu thought thoughtfully.
Yan Jin has always been not polite, and came over again that night.
It was not in vain, and he continued his usual style of being rich and rich, so that the servants brought a lot of things.
"I have checked it, most of them are precious medicinal materials, and it is said that it is for the Ji painter to make a soup-" In the evening, Yin Hai said to Xiao Muyu.
Medicine......
Xiao Mu looked at a pine and cypress in the courtyard outside the window, and the scene of two young children chasing and kicking bamboo balls under Panasonic flashed in a trance.
The bamboo ball is tied with a copper bell with a colored rope, flying high and falling, with a burst of bell sounds.
"General?" Seeing that Xiao Mu was silent, Yin Hai called.
Xiao Mu's gaze was still fixed on the pine and cypress, and asked, "Over there in Tingzhou, have you got the portrait?" β
"I've got it, and I'm on my way back, and it's a year old."
β¦β¦
Five or six days have passed in a blink of an eye, Hengyu has eaten and drunk every day, except for bathing in soup and taking medicine, and his waist has been rounded with a pinch.
Yan Jin would come to eat almost every day, laughing and arguing with her as always.
Xiao Mu mostly handles official business in the study and discusses with his subordinates-
Heng Yu knew that it must be more than that, she had already heard from Doctor Yan that his wounds had to be cleaned and changed every day, and the degree of suffering was very bearable.
She also met Yan Ming several times in private, and talked about some progress that was not worth mentioning.
On this day, the weather was not very good, and Mrs. Xiao was holding her precious book in the room to observe.
Liu Xun sat aside and was praised by her.
ββ¦β¦ Mr. Liu's writing is getting better and better, and there is more sincere emotional color, I don't know if there is a reason for such diligence? Mrs. Xiao asked in a low voice full of gossip: "Doesn't Mr. Liu have a sweetheart?" β
Thank you all for your votes, thank you, thank you.
Good night Β·
