CHAPTER XXXIV

Zhang Zhihe was dressed in a sycamore green shirt, and he held a small jade food bowl in his hand, feeding the seven geese surrounding him little by little.

When the food basin was at the bottom, Lu Hua stepped forward with the strength of his eyes to take the small basin from his hand and handed it a white handkerchief. Zhang Zhihe had a cold smile on his face, his slender fingers were wiped slightly red, he put the goose food stained handkerchief back into the food bowl, and asked Lu Hua: "Is the name card written?" ”

Lu Hua handed the things in his hand to the maid behind him, and he replied, "Lord Hui, it's all right, the carriage is waiting at the gate of the mansion." ”

Zhang Yihe nodded, and asked as he walked out, "Can you buy the pastry that the Song Mansion girl likes to eat?" ”

"Well, the little one was sent to guard it when it didn't light up today."

"That's very good."

Zhang Yihe looked at the food box in his hand and secretly thought: If you want to win over the Song family, you still have to start with his precious sister.

"Let's go, go to the Song Mansion."

……

Zhang Yihe walked in the carriage, his fingers curled, his heavy gaze kept falling on the food box on several cases, he still couldn't convince himself to take advantage of Song Zhouli's gratitude to him. But Gu Gusheng was anxious about those medicinal materials produced in Qinba...

Lu Hua took the lead in jumping down from the carriage, knocked on the door of the Song Mansion and voted for the doorman, Zhang Yihe stepped on the pestle and walked down with a noble appearance, the cloud pattern on his shirt was floating, and a touch of white was faintly seen in the bamboo-green sash, and it was not the same grade as the gorgeous clothes on his body.

Song Zhouli quickly welcomed him in when he got the vote, with a decent smile on his face: "Ming Yu, there is a long way to go." ”

Zhang Yihe was also polite and thoughtful, and arched his hand to Song Zhouli and said: "Brother Tongqing is polite, but he is bothering." ”

Song Zhouli straightened up: "Please." ”

Zhang Yihe lifted his robe and walked in behind Song Zhouli, Lu Hua didn't dare to slack off, and followed with a food box.

When he got to the main hall and took his seat, Song Zhouli thought of Zhang Yihe's name and said: "Since Ming Yu is not at ease, it is better to bring it back this time, and I will find another one for Xiao'er when I arrive." ”

Zhang Yihe's eyes flashed darkly: "It's embarrassing for Brother Tongqing." He didn't go around the bend with Song Zhouli, and straightforwardly explained to Song Zhouli that he knew what he meant. It's nothing more than that Song Zhouli wants to draw a line with him.

was pointed out so directly by him, Song Zhouli couldn't hold back a little on his face: "I..."

Zhang Yihe no longer listened to his defense, he took out the piece of paper full of words from his sleeve and pushed it in front of Song Zhouli: "I heard that Brother Tongqing is going to send someone to visit his hometown to comfort his mother recently, so I want Brother Tongqing to bring some medicinal materials back." ”

He took the paper pushed over by Zhang Sickhe, and said suspiciously: "How did Ming Yu know?" ”

Zhang Yihe smiled and took a sip of tea: "Brother Tongqing is a well-known filial son in the court, and he has to send someone home at this time of year to comfort his mother who has difficulty moving at home, isn't it?" ”

Song Zhouli said noncommittally "um" and opened the paper: "Aconite, dogwood, Yanhusuo, astragalus, salvia, ......"

They are all medicinal materials that are special products from the west, Song Zhouli put away the paper, which means that he agreed, but he still asked more: "I don't know what Ming Yu is doing when he buys these?" ”

Zhang Zhihe collected the sense of alienation on his body: "I have some old typhoid fever on my body, thanks to the Imperial Doctor Gu of the Imperial Doctor's Department who has not been so difficult these years, these medicinal materials are exactly what the Imperial Doctor needs." ”

Song Zhouli glanced at him sympathetically, the above herbs did have the effect of treating typhoid fever.

"It can be, but the journey is long, and Ming Yu is afraid that it will take a long time to wait, not to mention that the weather is getting colder and colder......"

Zhang Yihe put the teacup back, the emotions in his eyes were surging, his hands unconsciously clenched his knees, and his clothes had a trace of wrinkles: "There are still some leftover medicines that can support me through this winter." ”

"That'll be fine."

Zhang Zhihe hid his emotions and said to Lu Hua behind him: "Bring the things." ”

The person behind him stepped forward when he heard the words, put the food box in his hand on the mahogany table, Zhang Yihe saw Song Zhouli's doubts and said: "It's not good to come empty-handed when you come to the host's house, I know that Brother Tongqing is a sister who cares about his sister, so I think that these foods should be in line with the master's family." ”

Song Zhouli smiled awkwardly, and secretly slandered: It's better not to let me find out that you have made up your mind about my sister.

"Mingyu has a heart, although my sister is a little younger and not as calm and old-fashioned as Mingyu, she doesn't like to eat these sweets."

Zhang Yihe didn't seem to understand his refusal and said: "I see, a few days ago, I happened to see Ah Shui from Brother Tongqing's house buying this pastry in the shop in the south, and I thought it was ......", he paused, and arched his hand at Song Zhouli: "It seems that Ming Yu made his own opinion." ”

Hearing this, Song Zhouli turned his head to look at Ah Shui standing beside him: "Really?" ”

Ah Shui, who was suddenly named, had a complicated heart, looked at Song Zhouli and then at Zhang Yihe, and said with a strong man's suffocating appearance: "I'm sorry for the head of the family, it's Ah Shui who is greedy." I didn't expect to be seen by Lord Zhang so coincidentally. ”

Zhang Sickhe couldn't see the eyes of this master and servant before, he stood up and said, "In this case, then Ming Yu took his leave after seeing the little goose." ”

Song Zhouli nodded: "Ah Shui, you take Master Zhang with you, send people out in a proper manner, don't let Lord Zhang see the jokes again." ”

"Yes." With that, Ah Shui walked out: "Lord Zhang, please come here." ”

After Zhang Yihe went out, Song Zhouli's eyes were stunned and did not remove the food box on the table, he swallowed his saliva: "Ah Shan." ”

"The head of the house."

"Open the thing, the official wants to see if he really sees Ah Shui."

Ah Shan laughed in his heart: the head of the family would just open it if he wanted to eat, and he would have to find some more excuses. However, he didn't show it on his face, opened the food box in a proper manner, presented it to him, and said, "The head of the family, please see." ”

The dim sum is exquisite, it is indeed the one that the Song Mansion would buy in the past, Song Zhouli pinched one and put it in his mouth without hesitation and tasted it carefully, soft and glutinous and sweet.

"Ming Yu is indeed a careful one."

He twisted up a piece again and said to Ah Shan, "Send it to the girl." ”

"Yes."

……

The golden crow was about to sink, and the lanterns on the Shenque Street were hung high, faintly shining some points of light on the ground, and a green horse passed by, and the life on horseback was tall, and the black crown of his hair quickly beat those lights, and the light on the ground was mottled.

The fast horse did not stop until it ran to the door of a house, and the man in the star-blue dress on the horseback jumped off the horse without waiting for help, and the doorman in the house saw that the man was busy holding the reins of the horse, and said: "My lord has worked hard to run around in the dust." ”

The man nodded, raised his legs and walked in, he walked straight into the house, and after the doorman behind him bolted the horse, he did not dare to slack off, trotted behind him with tea, and shouted with some difficulty: "Adults have a cup of tea, my lord?" ”

Yin Xi was chased by him and couldn't bear it, he turned straight around and looked at the little doorman behind him: "Cunning boy, let me ask you, why do you have to let me drink tea?" ”

"My lord, this is requested by His Majesty, the saint said that you are running around in the dust, and she can't wash the dust for you if she lives far away in the deep palace, so let me prepare tea and wait for you to come, and moisten your throat."

Hearing the doorman's explanation, Yin Xi's face softened a little, His Majesty always calms people's hearts like this, he took the bowl of tea and drank it without hesitation, and then put the empty bowl back and asked with a smile: "I may be leaving?" ”

"Naturally, adults walk slowly."

After receiving permission, Otoki stopped staying, and walked quickly into the deep courtyard, he took out the hand card on his waist and signaled to the guards in the main courtyard, and those with gold silk masks opened the door behind him.

"Slow down, adults."

Yin Xi said "um", thinking that he would be able to see the people in the Deqing Palace soon, his mood couldn't help but improve, and the pain of riding a horse for a month was also swept away.
