Splendid pastoral, the doctor girl is a little sweet

Chapter 120 They Have a Marriage Contract

After seeing Gu Yingying and the others getting into the bullock cart, Zhu Lao reminded them to eat the pot kui while it was hot before closing the door.

Gu Yingying was indeed hungry, so she picked up one of the pot helmets and started eating.

Xu Xinlan was holding a pot helmet, but she was reluctant to eat it.You know, the uncle went to the government office again today, and he still went to the magistrate Yan to make an argument.

I wonder if the uncle ate it by himself?
Last night, the uncle didn't eat or drink.An old man, don't hurt your stomach because you are too busy to eat on time.

"Sister Xinlan, hurry up and eat something while it's hot. You can't let down your uncle's kindness." Seeing that Xu Xinlan didn't eat the pot helmet, Gu Yingying was worried that she would be hungry, and persuaded:
"Your uncle will go to the government office to find Yan Zhifu, and everything will go well. Don't worry, no one will dare to make things difficult for him."

Xu Xinlan shook her head.If the uncle hadn't gone to Mobei to fight, then the people who were helping the magistrate Yan behind the scenes, no matter how daring they were, would not dare to embarrass the uncle easily.

But uncle, he is not in the imperial city after all, let alone the land of Jinxia.

But the person who supported Yan Zhifu behind the scenes sent someone to rush over, and made an appointment with Yan Zhifu yesterday to meet him in Lion Town.

The person who supported Yan Zhifu was in the dark, so it was difficult to deal with.

But in order not to worry Gu Yingying, Xu Xinlan still ate with the pot helmet.As for the taste, I don't care about it at all.

Seeing Gu Yingying, there was a touch of relief in her eyes.

They all blamed Yan Yuan and Luo Shi for going too far, which caused her to be imprisoned, and sister Xinlan and the others were implicated.At night, he had to rush to the government office to rescue her.

It was thinking that after returning home, he would prepare some good food and invite sister Xinlan and the others to come over for dinner.

As for the patient who was treated in the medical hall before, Liu Erzhuang, whatever doctor Luo Shi wanted to invite for him, went to treat him.All at will.

Anyway, she tried her best, but Luo Shi's greedy woman spoke ill of her in front of Yan Yuan at a critical moment.This kind of people who don't know good and bad, why should they spare no effort to treat them well?
Arriving at the entrance of the village by bullock cart, Gu Yingying wanted to send Xu Xinlan back after getting off the cart, and invited the two mother and daughter to have dinner at home.

But unexpectedly, I heard Xu Xinlan say:
"My house is just ahead. It's so close, so don't send it away. You'd better go back and rest for a while. At noon, bring your mother and your second sister-in-law to my house for dinner."

"Oh, I'm still thinking, when I go back in a while, I'm going to order some food and treat you and Aunt Xu to dinner." Gu Yingying didn't expect that she wanted to invite sister Xinlan and the others to dinner, but she heard Xinlan's words before she said anything. My sister mentioned it first.

Xu Xinlan slightly raised her willow eyebrows and said:
"Let's come to my house for dinner first. Just the day before yesterday, a friend of my great-aunt's in Fucheng asked someone to bring her some mutton back and share some with us. I will cook some mutton soup later, and we all Have a drink."

The mention of mutton soup made Gu Yingying feel a little hungry.

From last night until now, I only drank some water and ate a pot helmet, so I must not be full.At this time, when sister Xinlan said that there was something delicious, she suggested:
"How about, after I go back, send some ingredients to cook mutton soup for you."

"Let me go get it with you." Xu Xinlan knew that Gu Yingying hadn't rested well and hadn't eaten enough, so she didn't want her to run back and forth.Just follow behind her and go to Gu's house.

Along the way, I also met many folks, including, of course, Gu Yingying's neighbor, Mrs. Qian.

Xu Xinlan only heard Qian Shi say: "Ying'er, you have returned safely. Oh, don't bother with women like Luo Shi in the future. You see, if you give money to treat her husband, in the end, it's still I was wronged by her. Tell me, where is there such an unreasonable person?"

Although she knew that these words were for Sister Yingying, she nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Xu Xinlan also nodded, Gu Yingying answered Qian Shi with a smile: "Grandma Qian, in fact, there are not many people like Luo Shi who don't know what is good or bad. Otherwise, in the future, who would dare to treat others? "

"After all, I still blame you for trusting her too much, thinking that she can do what she says. But she just talks casually." Qian tried her best to persuade Gu Yingying not to trust others easily in the future. , especially don't trust those strangers casually, so as not to be wronged again.

Gu Yingying obediently agreed, "Grandma Qian said yes, I will remember."

Qian also noticed that the woman's face was a bit haggard, even if she still had something to say, she held back.Watching Gu Yingying and the two women go forward, then went to the forest to collect firewood.

After returning home, Gu Yingying hurried to the miscellaneous house, found some yams, red dates, and wolfberries, and brought them to Xu Xinlan.Let her stew mutton with these ingredients, and it is better to add some carrots, which is more nutritious.

"Okay, I'll go back and get ready." Xu Xinlan bent her eyes and smiled. After receiving the ingredients, she packed them in a small cloth bag and took them home.

When I got home, I told Mrs. Zhou what happened after arriving at the government office yesterday.

I didn't think about it, but I heard Mrs. Zhou say: "I knew what you said before dawn. I heard it from your uncle. Alas, to be honest, I didn't expect that Yan Shao would come to Jin Xiazhou is the magistrate, let alone that he would harm us!"

It was not the first time for Xu Xinlan to hear Yan Shao's name. When she was at Aunt Xiu's house, she heard her mother ask Aunt Xiu about some things related to Yan Shao.

Although when the two elders spoke, their voices were very soft.But she still heard some words clearly.

For example, she knew that Aunt Xiu and Yan Shao were not only from the same village, but also had a marriage contract...

Xu Xinlan took out all the ingredients she brought back from Gu's house and handed them over to Zhou.I ran out by myself and pulled some carrots in the vegetable garden.

At this season, pulling out a carrot would freeze her.

But in order not to delay the cooking, after she got the carrots back, she quickly put them in wooden basins and brought them to the backyard, intending to wash them with well water.

Seeing Mrs. Zhou bring a pot of hot water, first put half a basin of cold water in for her, then add some hot water, and then wash the vegetables by herself.

"Mother, let me come, it's so cold." Xu Xinlan went forward to snatch the wooden basin, but she was protected by Mrs. Zhou, and she was not allowed to move.

"Go and wash the yam first, cut it into pieces, and prepare some sliced ​​ginger. After I wash the carrot, I will cut everything up and cook it with the mutton. When your sister Yingying and the others come over, I will I can have dinner."

"That's fine." Xu Xinlan listened to her mother very much, and went into the kitchen to chop vegetables.

After a while, Mrs. Zhou also washed the carrots, brought them in, and took the knife from Xu Xinlan's hand to cut the carrots.

Xu Xinlan went forward to light the fire, waited for Mrs. Zhou to cut up the mutton and carrots, put them in the pot, and started to cook the mutton soup.

"Speaking of this carrot, I went to my grandfather's house with my parents that year and got it from them. When I was a child in their house, the first time I ate carrots, I thought it was delicious. Later, I also grew carrots at home. It is not……"

Xu Xinlan told the truth.

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhou also sighed: "Who says it's not? Rare things are more expensive. No one disagrees with this reason. We used to think that carrots are delicious. First, because they are really delicious, and second. It’s because we don’t grow many carrots here. When the villagers in the village, almost every family has grown some carrots, they feel that they don’t taste very good.”

When it comes to objects, it is natural to think of certain people.
