Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 811 Lock the door and have a good rest

Ji Wuyan soon discovered that it was not unreasonable for the Chen family to become a famous medical family.

Even Chen Qi, the coward who was like a mouse seeing a cat when he saw him, was also a madman with medical skills. The medicinal materials he had taken root in these days had taken root. When he saw Ji Wuyan from a distance before, he turned around and ran away in a hurry. Now he won't run away. She was squatting there with a pale face and trembling eyes. Even Ji Wuyan didn't know what she was afraid of... In short, she was afraid, but she didn't leave, as if she was guarding her life.

This guarding lasted all day and night, and I didn't even bother to eat for several times. The food was brought in, and when the maids counted the time to clean it up, they found that it was still there. If it was summer, it would be better, but now it is winter, and the food is cold. Soon, I had no choice but to take it back and continue to heat it up before bringing it back. The maids tried to persuade them several times, but the other party just accepted it casually. The next time I came back, they found it was still where it was. Not to mention the flavor was much worse, and the maids and mothers were also affected.

After Bai Xue entered the tower that night and met the fifth elder, she was probably frightened by the other party's threats and threats, and she felt at ease for two days. Lin Yi came quietly in the middle of the night and escaped quietly. It seemed that he was trying to rob someone, but in fact he was just trying to find out. Not many people knew that he had been here, and Bai Xue didn't know either.

That day, she secretly went up to the tower and met a man who swore to be the ancestor of the Ji family. When she saw that Ji Wuyan really just locked up the man but still served him with good food and drink, she really believed it a little.

The man threatened and induced her to find the key to unlock the chain at Ji's house. If she succeeded, he would guarantee her wealth and glory for the rest of her life. On the contrary, if she failed, Ji Wuyan would know about her night break into the tower. This life is probably gone, and he may have to suffer a lot of humiliation and torture before death... The ancestor spoke clearly and clearly, and even rolled up his sleeves to show the horrific scars crisscrossing his body as he spoke.

Bai Xue had never seen such a wound on top of a wound. She was immediately frightened and responded repeatedly. She repeatedly promised that she would find the key as soon as possible. She just hoped that her ancestor would not tell anyone about her night break into the tower.

She thought that if she couldn't find the key, she would have to find a place to stay and escape early, escape from Ji Wuyan, and escape from the nose of the East Palace.

Bai Xue is now also responsible for delivering meals to the Chen family's yard. She originally wanted to take this opportunity to inquire about some things about the Ji family. The young people from the Chen family seemed to be familiar with Ji Wuyan, and they were shy and easy to talk to. They should be the whole family. The easiest way for everyone in the Ji family to break through - that's what she originally thought, but she didn't realize it, and it backfired. The whole yard was full of lunatics, and there was no one normal person. Not to mention gossiping and striking up conversations, it was you. Even if you talk to them seriously, most of them will just reply to you absentmindedly, "Well, okay, leave it there" and so on. As for what you said, well, I'm really sorry, they didn't pay attention or hear it.

After two or three days of this, not to mention the maids all knew about it, even the old lady received the news. With the help of Grandma Wang, she went over and saw these young people wearing green and black clothes. His big eye sockets made him feel very distressed at that moment. He grabbed Mr. Chen who was immersed in writing prescriptions and scolded him. He turned around and saw the discouraged look of the young people with their heads lowered, and felt pitiful. I really can't curse anymore.

So he waved his hand and let people rest. The other specially arranged guest courtyards were locked here. By the way, a few little girls were sent to watch at the door. If anyone got up without resting for an hour, they would continue to rush. Go back to sleep.

The old lady was overly concerned about this. Young people who were too exhausted would not be able to wake up for half a day if they did not rest.

When several people woke up one after another, it was already dinner time. The first one to get up was Chen Yinuo. After he got up, he was told by the maids that the courtyard was locked and no medicinal materials, prescriptions, or books were allowed to be used. , the old lady had already hosted a banquet in the courtyard, and continued to rest after dinner. Chen Yinuo was helpless. He rubbed his neck and asked, "What about tomorrow?"

The maid bent her knees slightly and replied, "We will have breakfast at midnight tomorrow. After that, the old lady has arranged for the troupe to invite you to watch the show and drink tea to relieve your fatigue. After lunch, the servant will go and open the courtyard. After that, you can please help yourself. But I People have also said that this prescription is important, but your body and bones are more important. If you fall ill before this cure is found, what will you do if you eat on time and rest on time? critical."

Chen Yinuo responded in a low voice, "Please let me convey our gratitude to the old lady for her concern and care."

The maid bent her knees again, neither humble nor arrogant, and said, "The old lady also said that she is old and inevitably talks too much. Please don't mind, sir." She said, bent her knees again, turned around and left.

Chen Yinuo wouldn't mind. He stood there for a while, sighed softly, and that's it... He was really tired this time. He had never felt like this before. He was very tired. My spirit is so tense that it feels like it is about to break at any moment, but I just can't stop. It seems that there is a voice in my head telling myself over and over again, don't stop, don't stop. If I stop at this time, there will be nothing. That voice They were bewitched over and over again, and it seemed as if there was an invisible hand holding a whip and lashing it, forcing them to just keep going like donkeys.

At this moment, all the pressure suddenly stopped. The whip was still hanging high above their heads, but there was no more urging, and they were able to truly breathe.

Obviously, everything is still there. The top of the mountain that is about to be reached is still there. Nothing will disappear just because they stop and take a breath. Every step they take is still there. , nothing disappeared. On the contrary, because of this break, they were able to take a break and look back at the road they had traveled during this period, check for omissions and fill in the gaps, just to make a better journey tomorrow.

That's all, just have a good rest today.

He stood at the door for a while, waited until everyone else woke up, repeated what the maid had just said, looked at the time, it was almost dinner time, and then headed towards the old lady's yard together.

In the courtyard, the sunset spread all over the ground. In the warm orange afterglow, Ji Wuyan was sitting on the porch drinking tea with the old lady. Grandma Wang was waiting aside, holding a piece of cloth as if holding a beloved child. While stroking her carefully, he smiled and said something to the old lady, but it was difficult to hear clearly from the distance.

This feeling and this scene are exceptionally soft and beautiful.
