Body 117. Annual Banquet 2
"That's great! That's great! Wang laughed out loud with relief.
"Since my daughter's illness is almost cured, mother, Jiu'er has a small request, I don't know if my mother will agree to Jiu'er." Looking at her mother's relieved smile, Liu Jiu'er rolled her eyes and grabbed Wang's arm.
"Well, you say!" Wang nodded.
"Mother, Jiu'er wants to eat some refreshing food, can you change the porridge, Jiu'er has eaten a few meals of chicken porridge, and wants to change the taste!" Liu Jiu'er said as she made her voice look particularly aggrieved and pitiful.
"Nope! This one doesn't work! Although your body is getting better quickly, it is not completely healed, and your mother has already agreed with the small kitchen that you can only drink porridge and not eat anything else recently. Hearing this request, Wang hurriedly shook his head, this is absolutely not good, you can't talk casually during your illness, you have to raise everything, and then eat your favorite food when you are well raised, which is a good choice.
"Mother! I won't eat too much, just a little! Liu Jiu'er made a slight gesture.
"No! Not at all! You don't have to worry about it! Stick to these days, and when you're completely well, you can let your guard down when it comes to meals. Not now! Bilan, don't get used to Jiu'er, let you take care of this matter, in case I find out that you are used to her, I will try to ask you. "Wang deliberately pushed the matter on Bilan, because it is very difficult to let Liu Jiu'er self-discipline, everyone knows that she can't control herself, but although Jiu'er can't control herself, she cares very much about her close friends, Bi Lan has been with Jiu'er for several years, and the relationship between you is definitely not an ordinary master-servant relationship, every time you see Jiu'er something, you will discuss with Bi Lan to know the importance of Bi Lan, so let Bi Lan take care of it, even if Jiu'er can't help it, she will endure it.
"Alright! Mother, don't be embarrassed by Bilan, I can't bear it! Liu Jiu'er pulled down her face in an instant.
"Well, that's obedient, then mother went to the hall first! In a few moments your father's friends will be in the house, and Mother will have to go to meet them!" Wang patted the back of Jiu'er's hand, said slightly reluctantly, and saw that Jiu'er nodded happily in agreement, so he was relieved to prepare to leave.
"Mother, wait for Qing'er to come, tell her to come to my Jinyuan as soon as possible!"
"Yes! Got it! Wang nodded.
Sending off the Wang family, Liu Jiuer helplessly pulled the chicken foam noodles that she pushed away back to her, in fact, the noodles made in the small kitchen still taste good, but if you eat the same thing all the time, you will always get tired! Hi! She sighed, let's eat! I promised my mother, I can't let Bi Lan suffer for herself!
Just when a bowl of noodles was about to be eaten, the voice of the girl outside the door came into the room: "Miss, Miss Xuan'er is here!" β
What? A noodle hung on his lips in an instant, who did the girl report just now? Is Yao Meixuan here?
"Xuan'er?"
Liu Jiu'er looked at Bilan beside her with an incredulous expression, only to see that she also nodded incredulously and said, "Miss heard me right, it's Miss Xuan'er who is here!" β
Yo! The sun came out in the west, what kind of wind invited this girl over, this is the person who will not enter her brocade garden if she is killed!
"Missβ" The girl outside called softly again.
Ahem! Well, you still have to have the demeanor you should have, Liu Jiu'er cleared her throat, handed the noodle bowl to Bilan, and said, "Let her in!" β
"Yes!" The girl responded, and opened the door from the outside.
It was Yao Meixuan standing outside the door, oh my God! Since she is dressed so plainly, it's not her style! In addition, there will be guests visiting today, and it stands to reason that she should dress up to show off her flowers, so plain and pure really makes Liu Jiu'er unaccustomed to it. I saw Yao Meixuan holding a basket in her hand, the basket was covered with pink fragrant cloth, her expression was not very natural, she smiled, but she smiled very embarrassed.
"Sister Jiu'er, my sister came to visit suddenly, and I don't know if it's inconvenient." Yao Meixuan whispered, but she never dared to step into the house.
Sister Jiu'er? Liu Jiu'er looked around, there were no elders around! When there were no elders here, when did Yao Meixuan call her Sister Jiu'er, and she could afford to call out the third sister.
"Fang, of course it's convenient!" Liu Jiu'er was so surprised that she stammered.
After getting the agreed answer, Yao Meixuan had the courage to walk in with her small basket and gently put it on the table.
"My sister learned that my sister has not been able to use her hands and feet since she was sick, and she must not be able to go out for a walk, the peach blossoms in the garden are very bright, and my sister went to the garden early in the morning to pick a few peach blossoms, and I want to bring them to my sister to enjoy together." Yao Meixuan opened her mouth embarrassedly, and opened the incense on the basket as she spoke, and sure enough, it was full of bright peach blossoms, obviously these peach blossoms were the best flowers selected, and none of them withered.
And in the center of the flower was a plate with things of different shapes that looked like pastries, Jiu'er didn't ask directly, but winked at the contents of the plate.
"Oh! This is a mung bean cake made by my sister, it is definitely not as delicious as it is made in the small kitchen, and the shape is strange, but Xuan'er has already tasted it, and the taste is okay! If my sister doesn't dislike it, can I stay together? β
"This-" For Yao Meixuan's sudden try, Liu Jiuer confessed that she was very unaccustomed to it, but it was difficult to resist the hospitality, mung bean cake! It's better to have a new food than to eat noodles all the time!
But her spitting made Yao Meixuan think she didn't want to accept it, so she hurriedly explained: "My sister has thought about it, my sister's body can't eat indiscriminately now, but mung bean cake is different!" Mung beans have a detoxification effect, and my sister will not have a negative effect after eating, so you can eat them with confidence. β
That's not what I said, butβ"Look! The person in front of her really misunderstood what she meant.
"Is my sister afraid that my sister will poison the pastry! My sister can swear with her life, absolutely not! Otherwise, my sister can eat one in front of my sister to ensure that it is clear. Yao Meixuan said as she raised her right hand to reassure.
Liu Jiu'er was helpless, she never thought about poisoning, she didn't dare to poison Xuan'er, and blatantly sent the poisoned pastries, isn't it stupid?
This girl is really thinking too much! She stood up and reached out to take down Yao Meixuan's raised right hand: "Xuan'er, don't be too nervous, your gift, my sister likes it very much." β
After saying this, Liu Jiu'er felt that she had become great, she was definitely not the kind of person who could be moved by a few flowers and a few pastries, maybe she was just more satisfied with her intentions!
"Really?" Obviously, she said that she liked it very much, and even Yao Meixuan didn't believe it very much.
"Yes, it's true!" Liu Jiu'er nodded firmly, reached out and picked up a piece from the plate and put it in her mouth, uh! I really don't want to describe this taste! took a small bite and put it back on the plate, but her action moved Yao Meixuan.
"Thank you, Sister Jiu'er, my sister was wrong before, please forgive my sister." Yao Meixuan grabbed Liu Jiu'er's hand as soon as she finished speaking.
In fact, to put it bluntly, Yao Meixuan didn't do anything too unacceptable, and her behavior was also instructed by Liu Yihua, so Liu Jiuer didn't completely pay attention to it, and now seeing Yao Meixuan's sincere apology, of course she only has to forgive.
"My sister is really polite, let her go over the past! Why bother to pursue it! Bilan, you go to the small treasury and bring the pair of jewel earrings and pendants that the emperor gave me, I want to give them to Sister Xuan'er, my sister rarely comes to my sister's place once, and I go back empty-handed, it is really my sister's fault. β
"No! No way! How can Xuan'er take her sister's things again! Hearing Liu Jiu'er say that she would give it away, Yao Meixuan shook her head vigorously, she was here to apologize, how could she accept other people's treasures while apologizing!
"That's my sister's! It's also a shame to say, my sister is also the first time to send my sister something, I didn't do a good job of being a sister, if my sister still refuses to accept it, let my sister face my sister in the future! Liu Jiu'er deliberately straightened her face after speaking.
"Yes! Miss Xuan'er, just take it! It's easy to say that it's also a sisterhood between Miss and you. This earring pendant is suitable for Miss Xuan'er at a glance, it's a pity not to accept it! On the other hand, Bi Lan had already taken out the earrings and gently placed them on Yao Meixuan's hand, God knows, this will be the most expensive and valuable gift Yao Meixuan has received.
"That sister, my sister will accept my sister's kindness!" With trembling hands, she held the gemstone earrings in her palms.
"Well, that's what you're doing! Come, sit down and chat with my sister! β
"Okay!" Yao Meixuan nodded vigorously, anyway, she was not qualified to receive guests, since the third sister kept her, she naturally agreed to stay.
Jun Yixi stood on the top of Luoya Peak and looked at the crowd of darts under the mountain, today received a huge bounty task, I don't know what the rich merchants in Kyoto want to dart to the Western Regions, there are not many things, only three boxes, but the price is a hundred times higher than the normal dart, in order to be able to transport things smoothly, and even willing to spend a higher price to buy the bounty task of the Liuli Pavilion, it can be seen that the things in the three boxes are not ordinary. It is not once or twice that the wealthy merchants of Kyoto have business dealings with the Western Regions, this Jun Yixi can understand, but there are only three boxes on this dart, and the volume of the boxes is not large, and it is unknown what treasures are contained in them.
Knowing that Liufu held a New Year's banquet today, he arranged for a brother who was guarding Jiu'er Jinyuan to take poison and died, and the most cruel punishment in Liuli Pavilion was to take poison, when the person who took the poison was itchy all over his body, and the organs in his body were like thousands of insects biting him, which was unbearable.
This poison is usually not given to Liuli Pavilion's own brothers, if it is Liuli Pavilion's brothers who take the initiative to take poison, it is a situation of necessity, sacrificing the small self to become the whole self is the purpose of Liuli Pavilion.
