A Thousand Gold Order: Inheritance

Chapter 31 Third Uncle
At that time, Qi Huan was at the candied haws stand at the door, but Qi Yuanchen grabbed her and asked her to buy candied haws.

Just as Qi Huan picked out a bunch and handed it to him, Gu Zhan chased him out from the medical hall.

Qi Huan turned his head and looked at him puzzled.

Her eyes are still clear and open, very natural.

Suddenly, Gu Zhan didn't know how to speak.

He dodged his gaze for a moment, and then slowly said: "It's not always peaceful in the capital, it's better for the girl to bring a few guards with her when she goes out."

"Okay, thank you for reminding me." Qi Huan agreed smoothly.

But look at him standing still...

And the expression and tone of the speech just now were somewhat restrained, as if he was hesitant to speak.

Qi Huan felt strange, just as he was thinking about what to say, Qi Yuanchen who was beside him broke free from her hand, turned around and ran back to the hospital on short legs.

"Hey!" Qi Huan didn't have time to grab him, so he ignored Gu Zhan and hurried after him.

But he saw the boy running straight back to the store, straight to the little girl, and generously handed the candied haws in his hand: "Here."

Qi Huan: ...

Are kids so tired of making friends now?How big is this baby!
The little girl raised her eyes, her expression was very calm, she glanced at the candied haws, then at Xiao Douding standing in front of her, she shook her head and said, "I won't eat it."

After finishing speaking, continue to lower your head and grind the medicine.

Qi Yuanchen hesitated for a moment, slowly took the candied haws back, and pointed his other hand at the medicine roller under her feet, and said in a childish voice, "This...can you try it for me?"

Qi Huan: ...

The little girl looked up at him again, and it was reasonable: "This is not for playing."

Qi Yuanchen was unmoved, and stared at Yao Nianzi eagerly.

Qi Huan was afraid of making him cry and couldn't coax him, so he didn't dare to go up to squeeze him rashly for a while.

The adults in the room were silent.

Fortunately, this baby was up to date, and he didn't make a fuss when he was rejected. He just watched the little girl grind the medicine silently for a while, then turned around and walked back to Qi Huan.

Qi Huan patted his head and tried to coax him as gently as possible: "That medicine grinder can't be played with. Only the medicinal materials can be crushed inside so that they can be used to treat diseases and save lives."

Qi Yuanchen didn't speak, as if he was still reluctant, he looked back again.

Just as Qi Huan was about to lead him away again, he heard the little girl shout: "Hey, didn't you say give me candied haws?"

After all, Qi Yuanchen is only a four-year-old child. His original logic was to exchange candied haws for toys, but now the little girl’s medicine roller is not for him to play with...

Qi Huan was terrified that the two children would have a fight, seeing that the candied haws vendor outside hadn't gone far, he quickly gave Xing Luo a wink: "Go and buy two more bunches."

Xing Luo went out with her skirt in her hands to call the peddler.

Here, Qi Yuanchen unexpectedly didn't protect the food. He glanced at the candied haws in his hand, then turned around and walked back, handing it to the little girl.

The little girl is a few years older than him, and Yue Mo also thinks that this little Douding is cute and cute, she changed her previous aloofness, her eyes are sweet and smile like crescent moons.

She also unceremoniously took the bunch of candied haws.

Seeing that Qi Yuanchen still didn't resist, he said again: "It takes a lot of strength to step on this thing, wait until you grow up a bit, come to me, and I will teach you how to use it."

Qi Yuanchen seemed to be thinking for a moment in silence, then nodded.

The little girl bit off a candied hawthorn, her cheeks puffed up, she chewed twice and then waved the candied hawthorn in her hand and asked, "What's your name?"

Qi Yuanchen still replied obediently: "Qi Yuanchen."

The little girl nodded: "Well, I remember. My name is Qiao Yue, Qiao from Qiaomu, the Yue next to the wooden letter of shade, come and play with me when you have a chance."

After finishing speaking, puffing out his cheeks again, he continued to grind the medicine while gnawing candied haws.

Qi Huan stared blankly at the side, seeing that the little girl was ignoring her again, so he greeted Qi Yuanchen and led him to leave the hospital again.

Xing Luo had just called the candied haws vendor back and took two bunches of candied haws.

Qi Huan gave Qi Yuanchen a bunch and took a bunch for himself.

Seeing the two little girls following, he asked to take a few more strings and distributed them to Lao Jing who was driving the cart.

Both Xing Luo and Mu Xiang are just thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls, they are very easy to coax, eating candied haws and smiling happily.

Lao Jing put it away and prepared to take it home for the children.

Xing Luo took out her purse to pay, and while Qi Huan was waiting for her, he also put the candied haws in his mouth.

Mu Xiang hastily tugged on her sleeves, hurriedly reminding: "Miss, it's on the street."

Qi Huan was stunned for a moment before he realized it, and withdrew his hands in a kind manner: "Okay, I'll hide in the car and eat later."

Well, she is a lady now and cannot eat on the street.

Lao Jing saw that she couldn't free his hands, so he helped to carry Qi Yuanchen into the car, and when Qi Huan got into the car, the two little girls walked away together, chatting and laughing while eating candied haws.

Qi Huan sat in the carriage, opened a corner of the curtain, and looked at the Tongji Medical Center behind.

There, the handsome young man from the Gu family was still standing there with his bushy eyebrows furrowed, staring at his group.

But here, it wasn't until the Qi family's carriage turned the corner that Chi Yunchuan sneaked out of the clinic, walked behind Gu Zhan, and bumped him with the shoulder with a gossipy face: "Hey, what's going on?" ? Even if this girl knows how to act again... She pretends too much, as if she really doesn't know you?"

Gu Zhan has recalled what happened that night countless times, and he still has doubts in his heart.

But what happened that night was related to Qi Huan's famous festival, he and Chi Yunchuan didn't dare to go into details, they only said that he accidentally broke into the Zhuangzi of the Marquis of Changning, and it was the eldest daughter of the Qi family who hid his whereabouts for him and escaped the pursuit .

At that time, the incident happened dangerously and complicatedly, so Qi Huan shouldn't have forgotten him.

Is it—

Because of the black light, she didn't actually see his appearance clearly?
Chi Yunchuan waited for a while, and when he saw that he was bored, he was eager to give him an idea: "Maybe she had some scruples when we were there just now? If you just feel sorry, go with it? If you have something to say, say it in private."

No, but Gu Zhan turned back and stared at him warningly: "She and I have never met before and have never met each other before. If those people notice the anomaly and track her down, wouldn't I be repaying my kindness?"

Chi Yunchuan thought about all the entanglements behind this and Gu Zhan's injury this time, and he also had lingering fears, and mumbled back to the hospital: "Then maybe they deliberately want to draw a line with you, for fear of being hurt by you. , don’t make trouble, I will pay back the favors that should be paid for you anyway.”

Gu Zhan stood staring at the direction of the street corner for a while, but he didn't chase after him after all. He led the horse and walked in the opposite direction.

On the other side, Qi Huan's master and servant went to Li Ji Dim Sum Shop as planned.

Not wanting to get out of the car outside the shop, Xing Luo grabbed her by the sleeve: "Miss, the one who was at the pharmacy just now... the young master surnamed Gu, that should be the eldest son of the Duke of Pingguo."

That Gu Zhan was indeed a bit weird, Qi Huan originally planned to ask someone to ask him carefully after returning home.

Hearing the words at this time, she simply stopped in her tracks: "Pingguo Mansion?"

"Pingguo Mansion, the empress's mother's family." Xing Luo was all excited, and his eyes almost had the sparkling fanaticism of a star-chaser, "This Gu Shizi is the empress's younger brother. , but I heard that in recent years, he followed the old Duke, and spent most of his time in the Northwest Military Camp. He didn't show up in the capital often. I don't know when he came back this time. Could it be... because of the prince's incident a few days ago It's just a temporary..."

When it comes to sensitive topics, Qi Huan lowered his face and gave her a wink.

Xing Luo himself was also cautious, so he kept his mouth shut.

Qi Huan bought all kinds of snacks from Liji Bakery, packed a dozen of them, big and small, loaded them into the car, and returned with a full load.

It was already noon when we returned to Hou Mansion.

This time, Qi Huan did not walk through the back alley, but walked through the front entrance openly.

The master and servant were carrying big and small bags, chatting and laughing as soon as they entered the gate of the mansion, they saw a person walking quickly from the direction of the inner courtyard on the front corridor.

The man was tall and slender, with hair tied in a jade hairpin, wearing a plain robe and a silver-gray cloak.

Because he was walking too fast, the cloak was faintly hanging behind his back, and there was an inexplicable aura of intimidation.

Before Qi Huan could react, Xing Luo and Mu Xiang had already stepped aside, lowered their eyes and bowed their knees in salute: "I've seen the third master."

Third master?

The third uncle of the original owner?
The unlovable Qi family, who is said to be the concubine son of Qi Zhengyu, but in fact is the third master of the Qi family? !

　There is no harm without comparison, and some people have to learn from children...
