Chapter 44: Astragalus
The voice was as calm as ever: "Dijing has a big bet in the near future. β
When he asked, Wang'er was stumped. The young master hates the place of black smoke and miasma the most. The people in the house dare not talk about relevant topics, that is, Lu Niang, who is not in tune, and avoids talking about the gambling house and the hook column.
When he looked embarrassed, there was a knock on the wall next door.
followed by the mellow voice: "If you want to talk about the gambling contract, it's still about Master Cui." β
How can you still listen to this! Wang'er complained, her face depressed. Isn't the third son of the emperor a scoundrel?
Yu Xujie snapped his fingers, watched the show and said: "If Cui Boling, the upstart of the dynasty, marries Xiao Er, will the eldest girl appear?" This matter is the focus of the people's chatter. β
"I pawn my favorite inkstone, and I bet all on it, I don't know how much I can earn."
He fell off his horse in front of Cui Boling, and he didn't care about the situation, saying that the prince had fallen to such a point.
It can be seen that there is no strong maternal support, and Emperor Xianguang only has Yu Xuyao in his eyes, even if he is a prince, it is not easy to be in the palace.
He thought of Yu Xu's condescending and superior appearance between the lines, and evil anger surged up.
When Wang'er heard this, her mouth couldn't help but open wide. Their young master is gambling?
Cui Boling's expression was unknown, his eyes were fixed on the word 'regret', he put it down with his backhand, and said to Wang'er.
"Cleaned up."
Wang'er twisted up the paper, he didn't read the content, but on the word 'one' at the end of each sheet, he remembered the temperament of plum blossoms.
He couldn't help but break his mouth and said: "This plum blossom has a strange temperament." β
Seeing that the young master didn't move at all, Wang'er was used to his cold appearance, but she didn't care, and said: "When she entered Cui's Mansion, it was the young master who asked me to pick her up, and her burden was carried by me, and it was very heavy." β
At that time, he was still pondering, the plum blossoms he felt were weird, and Cui Fu could still do without her pen and ink?
When I asked, I found out that it was the reward of the plum ginseng and Chinese herbal medicine identification conference, and the plum blossom was a baby.
He didn't expect that Meihua would use this to remember trivial matters, just remember it, there is obsessive-compulsive disorder, use the first page of each book, tear it off and bundle it together and send it.
Wang'er can already think that the end of the next return is 'two'.
Seeing that Cui Boling did not respond, he touched his nose and said no more.
The night is getting deeper and deeper, the man is as long as jade, but the air in his whole body is suppressed.
The Sun family wants Xiao Lian to marry, and they also need him to bow his head. Even if Xiao Lian has a next goal.
Wow, very good.
ββEarly in the morning of the 6th day of staying at Sun's house, the girl cried more than three times and asked when the young master would pick her up.
Meihua waved a note, and Cui Xiaoman's pitiful cat-like voice was still in his ears: "He said that he would come to pick me up in 5 days, and this is the 6th day." β
Kidney Bean coaxed on the side: "The young master must be delayed, don't worry, girl." β
The young master also left a message before leaving, and it is estimated that he can return in 5 days, but the girl does not say it, but she must be chattering in her heart, counting her fingers and counting the days.
Cui Xiaoman's golden bean smashed down: "I'm looking for him." β
Kidney Dou hurriedly said: "The young master is in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the distance is very far, does the girl know how to go?" Besides, if you pass through Yuze Mountain along the way, if you meet a bandit, then what should you do? The bandit was fierce. β
Cui Xiaoman dispelled her thoughts, but it didn't prevent her from smashing her tears, her former husband's coquettishness, and now her tears are even more lovely.
She sniffed and let Kidney Bean wipe her face with a handkerchief.
Xiao Nizi muttered: "Su Zhejiang." β
She seems to have heard it somewhere.
Kidney Bean served her to clean her face: "Exactly, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Water Township, I heard that the girl over there is called a water spirit." β
Cui Xiaoman's tears fell again, and she covered her mouth: "If the eldest brother doesn't go back, did he find a good match in Jiangsu and Zhejiang." β
Lu Niang said that men don't have a good thing, and she felt that the eldest brother was an exception, and her firm heart was shaken at this time.
She cried out loud, very tired: "What about the sister-in-law." β
Xiao Lianjin heard such a sentence, if it weren't for the little girl hugging her knees and curling in the corner and looking distressed, she really wanted to turn around and leave.
She had a quiet face: "Cui Xiaoman, change into a dress, wash up and use breakfast." β
In the Sun family, the Sun family knew that Cui Xiaoman's body was weak, so he changed his way to call the stove room to make soup, either black chicken soup or pork bones, which kind of supplement called Cui Xiaoman what to eat.
There are plum blossoms on time and three meals a day, and Cui Xiaoman's face is fleshy. Even Xiao Lian couldn't keep his mouth shut, but his waist became more and more slender.
Cui Xiaoman sobbed, but cautiously got out of bed and put on his shoes. I am afraid that my eldest brother will anger my sister-in-law and affect her.
Sun Bishi is still immersed in sadness these days, and he looks like he can't go out of the door.
Xiao Lian did not make the Sun family suspicious, and never refused to let the Sun family pull her out to see each other, and the whole family rushed around for her marriage, where was there time to notice Sun Bi's heartbreak.
But in the past few days, Xiao Lian's mentality has exploded, and what kind of strange things are in Qian Anliang's hands, but the Sun family is very optimistic.
The muscular man in the last picture book just got married today, and it is said that in just a few days, both men and women were very satisfied at first sight, and Sun's hatred of her was not angry
"This Qian Anliang has matched several couples of marriages, which one is not a husband and wife."
Blame her!
Xiao Lian listened to the bitter words, and finally got out of her body, and saw Cui Xiaoman thinking about Cui Boling, thinking about taking her out for a walk.
Kidney Bean stepped forward and saluted: "Miss Xiao, are you planning to take our girl out of the house?" β
Xiao Lian nodded: "Xiao Nizi was still thinking about roast chicken yesterday, and she went there for lunch later." β
Cui Xiaoman was in good spirits, snoring with the liquid medicine in his hand, and poured several glasses of water bitterly.
"I'm going to see Grandma Simon."
Xiao Lian raised her eyebrows: "Okay." β
The street was full of shouting.
After beating away several people who were aggressive and shameless bullying Grandma Ximen, he didn't dare to have anything to do with his life.
However, Dr. Simon is still in prison, and people passing by Simon's pharmacy during this period can't help but watch a good show: "What kind of pharmacy is still opened, Dr. Simon has not heard from him so far, and he can close the door early." β
Xiao Lian knew that with Cui Boling's ability, it would not take long to take him to complete the dispatch of Emperor Xianguang, and Doctor Ximen would definitely be able to return safe and sound.
When a few people arrived, Grandma Simon was sorting out the Chinese herbs, and a person wearing a placket stood beside her.
She listened carefully to what Grandma Simon had to say.
Xiao Lian had some surprises, and several people approached the house: "Yo, Miss Dong is not hiding at home to prepare for marriage, how can she have time to come here?" β
Cui Xiaoman sprang out from behind her and spit out words clearly: "Grandma Ximen, do you want to be Xiaoman?" β
Grandma Simon squinted, couldn't see clearly, and when the people ran in front of her, she smiled before she could speak.
At this head, Dong Zhiyi's eyebrows frowned slightly, she did not apply powder as always, the elders have been detained in the past few days, but she has covered a lot of white, but standing next to the white and dazzling Xiao Lian, the contrast is still stark.
"You can come, why can't I come? What is this reasoning? β
She always had to see what Qiankun taught Xiao Lian to send a message overnight, asking her to send someone to protect her. came to understand the situation of Simon's family, and couldn't help but feel a lot of feelings, but fortunately, Xiao Lian arranged it in time.
Xiao Lian shrugged: "Isn't this a feeling that you and I have a deep fate?" β
Dong Zhiyi's hands were tight, and he almost knocked down the astragalus that Grandma Ximen stuffed into her, didn't Xiao Lian give up on her yet!
Don't panic! She's getting married!
Grandma Simon greeted Cui Xiaoman for a while, took her hand forward and said, "You girl, you left a money bag last time, and I can't refuse if I want to." β
Xiao Lian smiled like a flower: "Give it to you, you will bear it, the younger generation is vulgar, don't be weird." β
Grandma Simon shook her head when she heard this, now there is no Dr. Simon to support her, but what Xiao Lian gave is the most tangible thing.
"The girl doesn't need to call the old body respectful, I hold the old face big, if you don't dislike it, just call me like this with Xiaoman."
She pondered and said, "No wonder you want to be a couple in the future, you and Cui Xiaozi actually thought of it together." β
οΌ
Be a couple!
Dong Zhiyi's eyes lit up, if Xiao Lian got married, of course she wouldn't think about her. The heart that was carried fell again.
Grandma Ximen always thinks that she and Cui Boling are a pair, Xiao is lazy to explain, and the other party doesn't believe it when she comes to explain.
She whispered, "Grandma Simon." The topic of Cui Boling was silent.
Cui Xiaoman poured beans into Grandma Simon's ear and confided what he had been doing in the past few days to divert the attention of the elderly.
Dong Zhiyi came to Xiao Lian: "Did you wipe your blush today?" β
Xiao Lian didn't expect Dong Zhiyi to ask this: "Although I say that people are more delicate than flowers, can I smear some blush and hinder your eyes?" β
If you have time to pay attention to these little things, it is better to beware of the little white lotus cousin Chu Xiao who has rushed to the Wei family on the way.
Dong Zhiyi had something in her heart, although she didn't like Xiao Lian's too delicate appearance, she still boasted against her will: "My eyes flashed." β
The small mouth is sweet.
Xiao Lian's heart was full of joy and even told the source of the blush: "An unobtrusive Lu Niang concocted it." β
Dong Zhiyi thought that Wei Jin didn't think she could dress up, her eyes flashed and asked, "Can you bother me to bring me a few bottles." I pay double the amount of money. β
Xiao Lian is angry, don't you want everything to be solved with money, does she look like a person without money?
Or is it for a scumbag?
It's infuriating, she knows Dong Zhiyi's difficulties, so she didn't say angrily: "Blush is priceless, but it can't be solved with money." β
Dong Zhiyi didn't force it, in the end, Xiao Lian liked her, and it was inevitable to hate her because of love.
However, she never thought that Xiao Lian's love was so deep, even if her tone was not very good: "Wait, I'll give it to you in a few days." β
She thought about the fat bone milk before, and accepted it with peace of mind: "Thank you." β
"Did I lose the bag I gave you?"
Dong Zhiyi remembered the green bag, gritted his teeth and said, "It's still there." β
Seeing that she couldn't let go of her heart, Xiao Lian held her breath for a while: "Wei Jin'er, the daughter of the Wei family, do you know?" β
"I know myself." Dong Zhiyi is still thinking about visiting again in a few days.
It's easy to get to know.
Xiao Lian helped sort out the Chinese herbs and put them in place, snapped her fingers and said, "I also gave her a piece of advice last time, and I expected that she would deeply understand the consequences of not being obedient. β
Dong Zhiyi thought of what happened to Wei Jin'er, and didn't say anything about the retreat, and became a joke for the people after dinner. I couldn't help but shudder.
"Don't you bluff me?"
Xiao Lian hooked his fingers: "Do you dare to bet?" β
Dong Zhiyi was silent for a moment, and he always knew that Wei Jin disliked her. She was about to ask something, when she saw Xiao Lian lazily supporting her waist, and her wide robe couldn't cover her colorful body.
Dong Zhiyi looked distracted, such a delicate woman is not loved by a man.
But she only understood after she got married: a man's love for a woman can be so desperate, and those who don't love, no matter how much the other party pays, they look dirty.
Xiao Lian found a wooden stool to sit down, listening to Cui Xiaoman's chatter to Grandma Ximen, she had nothing to do, and she wanted to do something as soon as she had nothing to do.
She patted the stool and hinted that Dong Zhiyi was sitting.
"Do you know how to demonstrate evil?" To deal with Bai Lian, the roundabout policy was ineffective, so she slapped her face forward, and she planned to teach Dong Zhiyi a few tricks.
Dong Zhiyi was vigilant, and couldn't help but talk: Aren't you!
Xiao Lian knows that Dong Zhiyi is an upright person, and she is contemptuous of her indiscriminate methods, which is also the focus of her loss.
"If someone wants to rob your husband, you will rob her henchman and make her difficult."
