Zhurou

Chapter 102
I don't know whether it's because the charcoal flame in the basin beside me is too hot, or the cup of tea in front of me is too hot, making the water mist misty and misty, warm with charcoal, making people feel hot all over.

Perhaps there are other reasons, whether it is Zhao Mingzhi's hands or feet, they are all a little limp, and he is really unable to struggle.

She finally raised her eyes and met the eyes of the person opposite.

It is as quiet as the deep sea, as if it can contain everything and bear everything, making people just want to indulge in it.

However, she still let out a long breath, shook her head and said, "Second Brother, I can't..."

"Can't, or don't want to?"

Zhao Mingzhi had no choice but to shout: "Second brother!"

"Second brother told me not to suffer, but if I don't suffer, who will suffer for me?"

She paused for a while, and there was even a bit of pleading in her tone: "If it's not something you have to do, who would like to have fun when you have a choice..."

After finishing speaking, Pei Yong said on the opposite side: "I've never been ruthless, and I have always done what I can."

He paused, and then said: "Since I put you in my heart, I made my own choice. I want to keep you for a long time. The single love word has already been filled, so there is no place for me to have fun."

After finishing speaking, he put the imperial edict and golden talisman on the table in his hands, but left Lu Xianzhang's letter alone, returned the thin paper back to Zhao Mingzhi, and asked: "The princess said last time that you can decide your own marriage, Yes or no?"

Zhao Mingzhi was silent for a moment, then nodded hesitantly.

Pei Yong said: "I know what you are worried about, so I won't force you to ask any more questions, just wait for the future."

After speaking, he stood up and stretched out his hand to pull the bell rope by the wall.

The hanging bell rang outside, taking advantage of no one coming in, he took two or three steps forward, an arm's length away from her, and guessing that the distance was close but not close, he called again in a low voice: "Ningning."

Zhao Mingzhi wanted to get up, but he stopped him with his hand, leaned slightly, lowered his head and said softly: "Don't worry, my marriage will still be decided by you in the future."

Then he said in a low voice: "I still have chores in my yamen. You have to eat something first and go to rest. Don't worry about the rest of the things for the time being. You will only heal the wound on your shoulder. It will be tomorrow or evening, or the day after tomorrow. I'll talk to you about it when I get back."

After finishing speaking, he stood up straight and took two steps back.

He had just stood still when he heard someone knock on the door.

But it is woody.

As soon as the door opened, there was obviously only an outsider standing by the door, but it seemed to break the atmosphere in the room.

As if nothing had happened, Pei Yong asked directly: "Dr. Liu who was mentioned last time, has he come since?"

Mu Xiang stood alone at the side, tied her hands and feet, did not move forward, nodded quickly and said: "Guan Feng was invited the day before yesterday, but..."

When she said this, she only had a meal, and instead of looking down, she looked at Zhao Mingzhi.

Seeing outsiders, Zhao Mingzhi suddenly came back to his senses, coughed lightly, looked up at Pei Yong, and said, "Second brother, I read the prescription and asked Dr. Liu, and I heard that five or six ingredients in it are soothing to the nerves, so take it. I'm going to be sleepy, because I'm busy these days, I thought... I didn't take it first, I just rubbed back the original ointment..."

Hearing her answer, Pei Yong only asked, "Where are the medical records?"

Who would carry such a thing with them?

Zhao Mingzhi was about to shake his head, but Mu Xiang came forward and took out an envelope from his sleeve.

She didn't hand it out, but looked at Zhao Mingzhi first, and asked tentatively, "Girl?"

After Zhao Mingzhi nodded, he brought it over.

After Pei Yong took it, he looked at it carefully for a long time, pointed to one of the medicines and said to Mu Xiang: "I remember that when someone returned the gift last time, they sent some old wild ginseng, and the astragalus and angelica are still left. I searched through the warehouse, took it to ask Doctor Liu if I could change it, and then picked up the rest of the medicinal materials, and asked the girl to take the medicine on time."

Then he turned to Zhao Mingzhi and said, "Right now, relying on my youth, I've really dragged my body to a disadvantage. Who will suffer in the future?"

In just a few sentences, they were obviously very gentle, but those words were very detached, as if Mu Xiang didn't exist, and if you listened carefully to the tone, it seemed that it was not Zhao Mingzhi himself who suffered and suffered, but the person surnamed Pei opposite.

Only Zhao Mingzhi was well-behaved, even though his heart was going up and down at the moment, he knew that only fools would refute at this time, and it wasn't that he didn't want to take the medicine, it was just that he had no time to care about it, so he honestly nodded in agreement.

Pei Yong folded up the medical case and handed it to Mu Xiang, but at the same time unwrapped a sachet from his waist and turned to look at Zhao Mingzhi.

Seeing his eyes, Zhao Mingzhi stretched out his hand inexplicably.

And Pei Yong smiled slightly, stretched out his hand, put the sachet in the palm of her hand, separated by two layers of cloth, and there was something bulging in the middle, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, pressed it lightly, and then said in a low voice: " Take it and eat, I'm leaving first."

After finishing speaking, as expected, there was no longer any delay, and he walked out.

When he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, looked back at her, and then turned around and walked away again.

Zhao Mingzhi was left sitting on the chair, holding the sachet in his hand, because Muxiang was still in the house, there was really nothing out of the ordinary, and somehow he was embarrassed to open it.

She didn't know what was in the sachet, but it was definitely not rue, and it didn't have any smell, so her usually sensitive nose couldn't guess it at all, so she pretended nothing happened, hung the sachet on her waist, and drank the tea in front of her. .

The tea was already half-cold, and it was still a bit astringent in the mouth, but when Zhao Mingzhi drank it, it only felt smooth in his throat, and even sweetened.

When she thought about Pei Yong's words and deeds just now, her heart felt a little astringent, as if the cold tea didn't enter her intestines, but only flowed into her heart.

And Mu Xiang also stood at the door, waited for a few breaths, and was about to come in, but heard the sound of footsteps in the corridor, and one person came up quickly.

When the man reached the door, he shouted through the door: "Xiao Zhao!"

Zhao Mingzhi turned around and saw a person standing outside, it was Wei Chengyan.

He thought it was not long after seeing off the people, and he hurried upstairs with the cold still on his body, but he only stood at the door.

Zhao Mingzhi quickly stood up and called out "Brother Wei San".

Wei Chengyan coughed dryly, and said, "Second Brother, have you talked to me?"

Zhao Mingzhi looked at him with raised eyebrows.

Wei Chengyan rubbed his nose, then put down his hand, he was about to step on the threshold, but he took it back, hesitated for a while, and finally said: "I didn't intend to hide it from you, but this time I went out for business, I can't Rumor..."

Speaking of this, he was startled suddenly, and immediately came to his senses, he quickly went back and said: "I didn't mean that you were a 'foreigner', I..."

Zhao Mingzhi laughed all of a sudden, and continued, "I know."

He said again: "It's not intentional to hide it, what's the matter? Besides, our friendship is our own family. Is it only on the lips?"

Wei Chengyan breathed a sigh of relief immediately, with a smile on his face, he let out a haha, and said, "Of course it's not just on the lips!"

His heart widened, and he began to complain, saying: "I originally set up a table and ordered a lot of good things for you to taste, but suddenly something very urgent came up later, the second brother asked me to go back and help, Right now, I don’t have to eat any good food…”

He said again: "Liao Mian has left first, and asked me to help him express his distress to you."

As he spoke, he sighed, and said: "I'll go first, I can only leave you alone to eat at that table—even though I don't need to talk about so many death rites with you, it's a pity..."

Then he said: "After two days, I will set up a full table again. I will not bring any strangers with me. I will only ask my second brother to accompany me. The three of us can have a good meal."

After finishing speaking, I didn't dare to delay any longer, and left in a hurry.

As soon as Pei and Wei left, Liao Mian was not there, but there were several more guards outside the door for no reason. When asked, he only said that they were sent by the second leader.

Zhao Mingzhi naturally knew the reason in his heart, so he didn't say much, and went back to the downstairs wing with Muxiang.

When I entered the door, a table was already full of dishes, including seasonal fruits, various snacks, side dishes, and main dishes, and there was also a jar of good wine. The mud seal was removed, and the scent wafted out without getting close As soon as he smelled it, he knew that Wei Chengyan must like it.

With a thought in her mind, she turned her head and asked Mu Xiang, "Is it convenient for the mansion to send things to the place where the second brother and the third brother Wei are?"
