Chapter 274: Strange Old Man
"Cheers!"
"Please!"
With a little hesitation, he took a sip of hot milk tea, feeling the sweet taste from his taste buds, and then looked at the thick and simple ceramic teacups and the various exquisite dishes on the table, Shangguan Yun was amused in his heart - this was definitely the most nondescript and comfortable banquet experience since he grew up.
"Come, eat the vegetables, lest it get cold." He Xiaoqiao put down the teacup and greeted with a smile.
It stands to reason that she is a female dependent, and she should not be present to toast and greet guests, but since Jiang Fenghao is awkward and refuses to pay attention to the official Yun, she has to laugh more for him.
"It is said that the dishes made by the hands of the princess are extremely delicious, and even the imperial chef in the palace may not be able to compare." Shangguan Yun smiled slightly, "It seems that I have a good fortune today." ”
Before He Xiaoqiao could speak, Jiang Fenghao, who was sitting next to her, had already put half of his arm on her shoulder, and unceremoniously continued to sell melons to Lao Wang, "That's natural, most of those imperial chefs are arrogant and complacent, and they will only rely on the old and sell the old, how can they compare to my family's talented and intelligent Yuxue's lovely lady?" ”
Fortunately, he is not in the palace now, and a word can offend all the imperial chefs.
Shangguan Yun's smile grew on his face, and when he heard this, he glanced at He Xiaoqiao, who was embarrassed, and responded very cooperatively, "What the prince said is very true." ”
Jiang Fenghao snorted, probably because Shangguan Yun's echo made him feel a little more refreshed, and his face eased a lot, not as ugly as before.
gave him a crutch, He Xiaoqiao was embarrassed, "Brother Shangguan, don't listen to his nonsense, I'm just a little more clever than ordinary people in cooking." When it comes to delicacy and deliciousness, the imperial chef in the palace doesn't know how many times better than me. ”
"The princess is too modest." Shangguan Yun took a chopstick squirrel and put it in his mouth, savored it for a while, and then said, "In the case of this fish, the knife work and heat are mastered very well, and the taste is even sweeter and crispy...... It is indeed a rare delicacy. ”
"Less bragging." Jiang Fenghao sneered proudly, and began to pour cold water without saying a word, "Let me tell you the truth, this table of dishes is not my lady at all...... Not! ”
The rest of the words made He Xiaoqiao plug a large piece of ribs in his throat.
"Eat your meal!" Turning around, he threatenedly showed two rows of white teeth, and when he turned his head, the spring breeze was blowing lightly, "Don't hide it from Brother Shangguan, now my body is getting heavier and heavier, and I rarely run into the kitchen." My father-in-law is right, I really didn't make this table today, the real chef is behind you. ”
As he spoke, he kept squeezing his eyebrows in the direction of picking lotus.
"Miss is laughing at me again." Cai Lian pursed her lips and smiled shyly, "The slave's cooking skills are not all taught by you, Lord Shangguan praises the deliciousness of this fish, not so much as praising the person who cooks, but praising Miss You teach well." ”
He Xiaoqiao sneered, "It's sweet in your mouth." ”
"That's a good point." Jiang Fenghao was even more direct, and with a wave of his hand, a silver ingot was thrown over, "Reward you!" ”
Cai Lian caught it with all hands and feet, and happily put the money in her sleeve, "Thank you, Lord Wang!" ”
Shangguan Yun couldn't help but shake his head and laugh when he saw this scene.
He is already handsome, and he has an elegant appearance full of poetry and books, and when he smiles with his lips slightly hooked, it is like the warm sun melting snow, and it is difficult for people to take their eyes off his face.
He Xiaoqiao was stunned, and a sentence popped up in his head-
Mo Shangren is like jade, and the gentleman is unparalleled in the world.
Thinking of this, He Xiaoqiao looked at him carefully, but found that his face was paler than before, his cheeks were slightly sunken, and he coughed lightly from time to time as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
I didn't look carefully before, but now I found that I hadn't seen him for a few months, and he was actually as thin as a paper man, as if the wind could blow him away, and the robes that originally fit him looked much more empty than before.
No wonder Jiang Fenghao would want the ghost doctor to treat him, isn't he a seriously ill person like this?
is also thanks to his full aura, and he can actually support all his momentum, so that people only pay attention to the bookish temperament around him, but not the thin figure.
I don't know how long he has been sick, but he has been tortured like this.
Thinking like this in his heart, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Shangguan, what the hell is going on with you?" Why did it suddenly ...... Skinny like this? ”
Shangguan Yun didn't expect her to suddenly ask like this, and after being stunned, he chuckled, and didn't intend to hide it from her, "It's nothing...... It's just that some time ago, the old disease recurred, and I was tired, and some couldn't eat. ”
I heard that He Xiaoqiao was killed by his uncle, and he felt all kinds of self-blame and guilt in his heart, and the depression in his heart led to the recurrence of the old disease, and he lay in bed for a long time, and several times he had already stepped into the ghost gate.
If it weren't for the fact that he happened to hear that He Xiaoqiao was still alive and well some time ago, and he had the idea of making amends to her and atoning for his uncle's sins, this illness probably wouldn't have gotten better so quickly.
"What the hell is your disease? Is it the same headache as before? When we met for the first time, I knew that he had a headache, and now when I heard him say this, He Xiaoqiao recalled almost immediately, "Isn't it possible that even the old imperial doctor in the palace can't cure him?" ”
Shangguan Yun looked helpless, laughed self-deprecatingly, and spread his hands, "The disease of head wind is originally a stubborn disease, even if the imperial doctor sees it, it is useless, and it needs to be treated slowly." ”
As he spoke, he suddenly changed the topic and went back to He Xiaoqiao, with a hint of obscurity in his eyes, "It's you, I heard that someone wanted to harm you before......"
"Oh, that's it, it's nothing!" He Xiaoqiao laughed, winked at him, and said in a low voice, "Don't listen to the rumors that people are dangerous, in fact, I was just overangry at that time, and the imperial doctor has great skills and saved me and the child." After saying that, he patted his stomach excitedly, "Fortunately, the child is solid enough, like me, haha." ”
Shangguan Yun also laughed, his eyes fell on her huge belly, and he said softly, "Well, it's true." ”
"That's right, Brother Shangguan." He Xiaoqiao suddenly spoke, "I suddenly sounded Some time ago, there was an old doctor with superb medical skills in the house, and I heard others say that he can live dead with white flesh and bones, and his kung fu is very hard - why don't I ask him to help you take a look?" ”
The flesh and bones of the living dead?
Hearing this, the word 'ghost doctor' almost immediately appeared in Shangguan Yun's mind, and his heart jumped violently.
barely suppressed the excitement in his heart, still looking as warm as jade, and opened his mouth unhurriedly, "Oh? Is there such a high person in the world? ”
Jiang Fenghao and He Xiaoqiao glanced at each other, exchanged glances with each other, and did not miss Shangguan Yun's frozen expression for a moment - it seems that Shangguan Xinghe is doing everything possible to find a ghost doctor, it is indeed to cure him.
"I don't know if he's tall or not, but it's true that everyone praises his medical skills." He Xiaoqiao waved his hand and motioned to Ying Tong, who was standing at the door, to invite the ghost doctor, and said with a smile, "Anyway, the other person is also in the mansion today, so you just let him take a look at the pulse, maybe he can really cure you?" ”
Shangguan Yun clenched his hand into a fist, coughed lightly against his lips twice, Sven and elegant handsome face was sickly pale, and smiled self-deprecatingly when he heard the words, "Freezing three feet is not a day's cold...... It's been delayed for so long, and the imperial doctors in the palace are helpless, where is it possible to be cured suddenly? ”
"No one can say about this, anyway, there are multiple chances to try, right?" He Xiaoqiao persuaded, "And if we are friends, you should let me be a friend." ”
Having said that, if he refutes it again, it will inevitably seem a little impersonal.
Shangguan Yun coughed lightly twice, and when he looked up at He Xiaoqiao, there was a touch of warmth in his eyes, and he said with a smile on his lips, "Since that's the case, then thank the princess first." If he recovers from his stubborn illness another day, he will go to the soup for the princess and die without giving up. ”
"I finally saved your life, I was stupid to let you go to the soup and die." He Xiaoqiao snorted, and grimaced at him without changing his child's temperament.
Shangguan Yun was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled.
As the two were talking, there was already a chaotic sound of footsteps outside the door, and Ying Tong stood at the door and shouted loudly, "Lord Qiqi, princess, Doctor Xue has been invited over." ”
As soon as the words fell, before Jiang Fenghao could speak to He Xiaoqiao, the ghost doctor, who was bent over his waist and thin and dry, walked straight past him with his hands behind his back, and walked in wearing his signature broken straw sandals.
Rolling his eyes and nostrils to the sky, he looked arrogant, and at first glance, he was disturbed by someone who was refining medicine, so he was feeling all kinds of unhappiness in his heart.
"Which rabbit is dying of illness?" His eyes swept over everyone in the room, and finally fell on Shangguan Yun, who looked 'sick', "Stand up yourself, the old man doesn't have much time to play with you!" ”
"......" is enough! How can you stand up if you are going to die?
He Xiaoqiao rolled his eyes, almost making this weird-tempered old man angry.
However, Shangguan Yun's expression was calm. Since ancient times, most of the people who have real skills have strange tempers, and he has not been treated like this, and he has not been dissatisfied in his heart when he heard this, but he just stood up, bent down and bowed to him, "Under Shangguan Yun, I hope that the old-timers will not hesitate to give advice." ”
"Is it that your kid is sick?" The ghost doctor squinted a pair of shrewd old eyes and looked him up and down, stepped forward and grabbed his hand, raised his wrist to his ear, and his two gray eyebrows wrinkled tightly, "Sure enough, I am very sick, and in less than a year, I will probably be able to sign an autograph with Lord Yama to report." ”
Although he knew that his body was not as good as before, but he heard someone say that he couldn't say it this year, Shangguan Yun's face couldn't help but change slightly, and then he quickly recovered, still with that humble and polite appearance, but the gloom in his eyes always lingered, "What the predecessor said is that he was born late ......"
Before he could finish speaking, He Xiaoqiao's suddenly raised voice was cut off, "I can only live for another year?" Senpai, you read that right?! ”
