The blessing of the splendid farm family is married to the world

Chapter 116 Selfless Parents

"It's broken," Magpie held the lamp to shine it on, "Miss, this bracelet looks pretty good, if one is broken, wouldn't this pair be ruined?"

An Xu: I know, you don't need to remind me.

"Miss, what do you think this is?" Partridge said, pointing to the mortise and tenon on the back of the box.

"Here," An Xu turned the box to the back, and when he lifted the lid, there was a big slit in the missing mortise and tenon.

Even broke the box, how strong was it just now?

What Shen Xiao just gave her has become like this in an instant, how can she tell him?
Aunt Luo was still on the sidelines: "Miss, this old servant is really serious, the bracelet fell out from here."

An Xu: Do I still need you to remind me?The locked side is fine.

"Okay, let's all go back and rest." No matter how regretful I was for not taking care of the box, it was useless at this time.

For the present, the only way is to ask Fang Fu, who has traveled all over the world, if he has ever seen this kind of blood jade, and make another one that is exactly the same.

Of course, I still have to tell Shen Xiao about this matter.

She went back to the room again, looked at Zong Che who was sleeping on his side on the couch, and wanted to go over and beat him up.

An Xu didn't know when she fell asleep. When she opened her eyes, she saw Zong Che who was squatting beside the couch silently looking at her.

He may have woken up early and changed into a dark red embroidered cloud pattern. This color made his already fair skin even whiter, but it was a pale white.

The youth should be picturesque, but now it looks a bit like a horror painting.

Especially when he was still looking at him silently, An Xu sat up all of a sudden and asked, "Are you sober?"

"Well," Zong Che responded, fell silent for a while, and said, "Last night, thank you for taking care of me."

"If you want to thank me, don't drink so much in the future." An Xu said, looking up, he saw that his eyes were not in the right place, and he only realized when he lowered his head, because the neckline was torn apart because he got up too violently just now.

She squeezed it closer, wondering if it was exposed when she fell asleep.

Zong Che withdrew his gaze and said naturally: "Breakfast is ready, you can get up and take a shower."

An Xu wanted to sleep again, but his stomach was indeed empty, so let's eat before going to bed.

"What's that?" Zong Che asked, pointing to the mahogany box that had been placed next to the pillow at some time.

An Xu thought carelessly to himself, quickly picked it up, and said, "It's nothing."

Zong Che didn't ask further, just said: "I haven't seen it before, it doesn't look like your own. If it's a gift from someone else, it's better to have a testimony."

An Xu thought to himself, this is a token of engagement, what more testimony is needed?
Breakfast is made of magpies and partridges, porridge and deep-fried dough sticks, small pickles, vegetable salad, and a steamed elm and cabbage bun.

The yuqian vegetable bun was soft and fragrant, and tasted much better than the previous life. An Xu ate two, drank a bowl of porridge, and ate half a deep-fried dough stick.

Then he stood up and went back to his room to sleep.

Zong Che, who was still eating slowly, said, "I won't come back to eat at noon, you should have a good rest."

"Well," An Xu thought for a while, and said, "Don't drink too much in the future, it will hurt your health."

"Understood," Zong Che explained: "Yesterday there was a very important matter, and I couldn't talk about it without drinking, so I drank more."

Looking at her frowning, she added: "I promise I won't drink so much in the future."

An Xu shook his head, "I'm going to catch up on sleep."

It's just that he didn't have a good rest after all. After sleeping for an hour, when he woke up, he heard the footsteps of partridges wandering back and forth outside.

"Partridge, what's the matter?" An Xu sat up, put on his coat, and said, "Come in and tell me."

The partridge hurried in and said: "I just heard that something happened to Taixue last night. It has something to do with the third young master, and it has something to do with the dishes made by the young lady."

As she spoke, she helped An Xu get dressed.

"A classmate of the third young master ate the dishes you cooked and sent them to Zhang Garden last night. The servants went to buy vegetables in the morning, and people all over the street were talking about it."

An Xu knows that there will be no food hygiene problems in the things he makes, and the food is delivered by the magpie, and there is no second person on the way, let alone someone poisoning.

"Let's go and see."

She got dressed, casually asked Partridge to comb her hair into a bun, and went out.

After hearing the news, the magpie rushed to Zhang Yuan to watch.

If something happened to the child, wouldn't the lady's food shop not be open, so he would make a mess first.

When An Xu and Partridge arrived, Mrs. Rong, Granny Zhao, and Rong Ci were also there.

They stayed in the flower hall prepared for the patient's family outside Zhang Yuan. Rong Cheng looked haggard, probably because he didn't sleep much last night.

When An Xu came in, he rushed forward first, hugged An Xu's waist, his eyes were full of apology, "Sister, did I cause trouble for you?"

Rong Ci frowned, and said, "How old is your child, let go of your sister."

"It's okay." An Xu rubbed Rongcheng's head, "Tell my sister what's going on."

Rong Cheng also quietly withdrew from An Xu's arms, told what happened yesterday, shook his head and said, "But I don't know, he actually ate all the chili pieces like that."

"In the middle of the night, I heard the sound of something breaking in his room. When I got up and knocked on the door, but no one answered, I realized something was wrong. When I called someone to knock the door open, I saw him fall to the ground in a cold sweat .”

"Okay, it's okay, he just ate too much chili, nothing serious will happen." An Xu patted Rongcheng's back to reassure him.

Just at this moment, an old man with white hair and white beard in his sixties, but hale and hearty, walked in from the outside, and said to Rong Ci directly: "Mr. Rong, the young master of the Xue family is fine. I just have a few words. , to tell this girl."

An Xu stepped forward and said, "Doctor, you have something to say."

"This chili was originally just a kind of pepper, right?" Old Doctor Zhang asked.

An Xu nodded.

Old doctor Zhang said again: "I heard that this thing is very popular now, and it was made by a merchant to make their dishes sell well? The girl must be from that merchant?"

Popular?This is not such a good idiom.

This old doctor does not like or even dislikes the popularity of chili peppers.

An Xu said: "Today's peppers are cultivated on the basis of peppers."

"The girl must be an expert in farming." The old doctor Zhang praised first, but An Xu didn't respond, so he just looked at him, and sure enough, the old doctor continued: "After the spicy food was introduced to the capital, I tasted it, and I went to taste it specially. Pepper, that kind of spiciness happens to be good. The girl interferes with nature, I'm afraid this thing is not good for people."

An Xu smiled and said: "Old doctor, what you said is a bit biased. We humans can survive between heaven and earth without interfering with nature. Can we pass it on from generation to generation better and better until today? The benefits of chili, Far greater than the harm. Do you know how many peppers this child ate at once?"

Rong Cheng hurriedly said: "He ate half of the plate of chilli slices and those in the soup."

"You heard it too," An Xu said: "The old doctor should know that eating too much of anything is harmful. For example, ginseng is a great tonic, and eating too much can still kill you. You always Just because a person eats ginseng greedily, it cannot be said that ginseng is bad for people.”

Old doctor Zhang was speechless.

Thinking of the greatness of this elder doctor that he had heard about these days, An Xu didn't want to turn against him, and continued: "Of course, you are a doctor, and you have a skeptical attitude towards new things. This is your medical ethics. But What you should do more is to see if you can discover the medicinal value of pepper."

"Well, what medicinal value do these things have?" Old Doctor Zhang said, "Those spicy dishes on the street all stimulate people's taste buds with heavy taste, and it's not good if things go on like this."

"Old Doctor Zhang, what you said is wrong."

"What you said is biased."

Rong Ci didn't finish his sentence, he thought who was robbing him of his words, turned his head and saw that the one who walked in while talking was the new favorite Zong Che?
"When it's cold, eating a bowl of hot and sour soup can make you sweat immediately. This is to prevent the wind and cold." Zong Che walked in and stood next to An Xu, "The multi-forest area in the southwest is full of miasma. Can this kind of food that can make people sweat and heat prevent miasma? If it can, it’s not too much to call it a god.”

Old Doctor Zhang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded several times unconsciously, before realizing it, he looked at Zong Che and said, "You also know medicine?"

Zong Che's tone was cold, "I've read a few medical books. By the way, Xue's family is here. Let's discuss how to compensate."

An Xu looked at him: What Xue family?The child who ate chili and spoiled it was Xue?

He also looked back at An Xu, with a comforting look in his eyes: nothing will happen.

At this time, Rong Ci's voice sounded: "Master Zong, the Xue family has not come yet. But my son is also partly responsible for this matter, and our Rong family will pay for it."

An Xu was about to ask the child if he was awake and how his health was, when a "no" came from outside the door, and then hurried in. It was a thin, sallow lady with a sallow complexion who couldn't hold up her clothes at all.

The one I saw at Fuyun Temple yesterday.

Then the woman saluted Rong Ci and Zong Che, and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't teach the child well, he always eats indiscriminately, and it's not surprising that he can make it to Zhangyuan. Our family doesn't want the compensation from the two families, and let you all wait here, I'm really sorry."

She was very polite to her side, but when An Xu heard this, she felt uncomfortable no matter what she heard.

"We haven't asked how the baby is doing yet?" she said.

Only then did the woman see An Xu, her eyes lit up and she said, "It's you. He must be fine. The child in our family is so disappointing that I'm too embarrassed to say it. Before, he was still eating steamed buns. There was almost something wrong with it. So this time, our family is really sorry. I asked all the way on the way, it was your child who was kind, but unexpectedly brought this trouble."

She said blah blah blah, but An Xu didn't want to hear it anymore.

She has nothing to say to such parents who regard their children as worthless.
