Nongmen doctor girl: flirt with a sick and charming first child

Chapter 21 Cancellation of Spring Test
She made an appointment with Lao Li today, saying that Chenshi would come to pick her up, but it was almost past time and he hadn't been seen yet.

An Jingchen's ten-day vacation was over, and when he rushed back yesterday, he had already left home to go to the academy.Waiting and waiting to see no one, Qiao Muyao was a little bored, so she simply picked up the bronze mirror to take a picture, after all, this face was too unfamiliar.

Only after taking this photo did she realize that the pink skirt she was wearing made her already dark cheeks even darker.

Passing by a clothing store yesterday, she couldn't help but buy this satin skirt. You know, in her previous life, she always remained delicate in front of others.

Women should please themselves, and when they have money, they should dress up more glamorously.

Qiao Muyao stared at the face in the bronze mirror, becoming more and more dissatisfied as she looked at it. Thinking about staying up late last night, she felt that the dark circles under her eyes were getting heavier.

Perhaps it was a remnant of the habit from her previous life, Qiao Muyao always wanted to cover it up with foundation. When she thought about it, she immediately took out all the rouge and gouache she bought yesterday.

After covering up the dark circles, I felt that my face was too dark and I needed to apply some rouge.

After a lot of trouble, she put on beautiful makeup. Looking at the girl with beautiful features and sweet smile in the mirror, Qiao Muyao was so happy that she wanted to fly. She knew that the original owner had good foundation.

As soon as she put away the bronze mirror, she saw Dongzhi's wife, the former friend of the original owner, knocking on the door and exaggeratingly saying: "Hey, who is this beauty? I can't even recognize her."

"Stop making fun of me, come in quickly." Qiao Muyao stood up with a smile.

"I haven't seen you since I've been here several times, so I'm going to bump into you today." Sister-in-law Dongzhi is in her prime, with a small oval face, and she is still handsome even though she has been weathered.

It's a pity that the beauty had a bad life and was sold to Changqingshan as a child bride at a young age.Chang Qingshan came to have a son at an old age. His father passed away when he was young. Not long after she got married, her mother-in-law also passed away.

The husband followed Qiao Liangtai into the army and there was no news. The brothers and sisters-in-law thought she was a burden with two oil bottles, so they separated early.

When Chang Qingshan left, the eldest daughter Qiuyan was not yet two years old, and the youngest daughter Xiaoman had just turned [-] days old.

Thinking that it was not easy for her to raise two children by herself, the farmers in the village would occasionally lend a helping hand in their free time.

As a result, Dongzhi was isolated by those women. They said behind her back that she had hooks in her eyes and that she specialized in seducing men. They even called her a widow in front of her face.

In the past, in the village, only Liniang and Zhang's mother and daughter, who had the same illness, were still willing to interact with her.

"What do you want from me?" Qiao Muyao picked up the kettle on the table and poured her a bowl of tea.

"I heard they said you made a fortune, but I still don't believe it!" Sister Dongzhi looked her up and down curiously, "I don't have anything else to do... I just wanted to see you. I heard they said you met a tiger in the back mountain. , I’m a little worried about your health.”

Qiao Muchao was a little touched. She heard that people in the village had begun to isolate herself, but it was really rare that Dongzhi was willing to come see her.

"Is there really nothing else?"

Seeing the way her eyes were dodging, Qiao Muyao couldn't help but ask.

"Actually... I also want to ask you for a favor."

Sister-in-law Dongzhi rubbed her hands in embarrassment, "I heard they said that you go to the city every day and think that there is no salt at home. They want you to help carry a liter."

Judging from her awkward look, she must be not used to her current dress.Thinking that she and the original owner always made appointments to go into the city together, and if one of them was busy and couldn't go, the other one would help carry some items that the other party needed or sell wild goods. They were considered very trustworthy friends, so Qiao Muyao agreed without hesitation. . "This is the money to buy salt. Please order it again." Sister-in-law Winter Solstice poured out a large handful of copper coins from her purse and placed it on the table.

"What are you counting? You can't be wrong." Qiao Muyao put it away directly.

"Then don't forget, we don't have salt for cooking at noon." Sister Dongzhi looked at her with a smile on her face.

"Ah? Are you in such a hurry? I might not be able to come back in time."

Qiao Muyao thought for a while, "I happened to buy a lot of salt yesterday. Why don't you take a liter and eat it first? I'll buy it next time too."

Sister-in-law Dongzhi's eyes lit up, "That's great, I just happened to have a cloth bag with me."

Qiao Muchao took the rice liter and took her into the hut where her mother-in-law lived, and put a full liter of salt into her cloth bag.

This liter is comparable to that of a salt store. Seeing the salt piled up into a hill with sharp tips, Sister Dongzhi panicked and said she couldn't do anything.

After chatting with Mrs. Dongzhi for a while, I suddenly heard Lao Li's loud voice, shouting outside the yard.

Qiao Muchao responded and quickly bolted the door. With the help of Sister Dongzhi, she carried the bamboo basket to the car.

Lao Li explained the reason for his late arrival, and quickly sent her to Fengxi Residence. After coming out of Fengxi Residence, he pulled her to the fully booked building.

After a lot of trouble, it was lunch time, and Qiao Muyao went straight to the Ruyi Noodle House opposite.

I heard that this noodle shop has good craftsmanship. It has been opened for hundreds of years by four generations. Apart from giving needles to Xu's mother today, there is no other important thing, so I just took the time to try it.

The business of this store was really good and it was almost overcrowded. Qiao Muchao finally found an empty seat.

It wasn't until she sat down that she realized that the young men in school uniforms at the tables around her were actually students of Fengxi Academy.

Could he be here too?

Qiao Muyao hurriedly looked around, hoping to see that familiar figure among the crowd.

But his neck was twisted and sore, and he still didn't see An Jingchen, but suddenly he heard the man at the next table say: "...Jingchen always eats noodles with us. The food in the kitchen is so bad. If it's noon, If you don’t even come out to have a meal, how can the Five Zang Temple endure it?”

Jingchen?

Qiao Muyao quickly raised her ears and listened.

But the tall man with a round face opposite said: "Food is a small matter. I heard that Jingchen has informed the master that the spring examination has been cancelled."

"Why?"

The thinner one exclaimed, "Jingchen is so knowledgeable. He will definitely be able to get into high school in this spring exam. He said before that he would definitely participate. How could he suddenly cancel it?"
