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

Chapter 76 Murder and Arson

As soon as Qiao Muyao walked into the lobby, she heard people talking about how generous the golden young master was.

This time, not only Master Yun Jiyun was invited, but also the famous Wangxian Tower in Laiyang was invited. All the students in the guild hall except An Jingchen were invited to attend today's dinner.

I thought this guy had restrained himself, haha, it turns out that a dog can’t change its habit of eating shit!

Qiao Muyao's eyes flashed. His intention for doing this was self-evident. Didn't he just want to isolate Jingchen?If it weren't for the fact that he has been relatively calm recently, I would really want to beat him up.

Then I thought about it, as long as he didn't do any tricks behind his back to ruin Jingchen's reputation, there was nothing wrong with doing so.

Although Qiao Muyao had long expected that Shaoqing was born extraordinary, she did not expect that she would actually know the Zhuge family of the Song Dynasty. Judging from the polite way Zhuge Yu treated her, she was afraid that the relationship between the two was very close.

Zhuge Yu said he wanted her to drink a glass of wine, but the subtext was that he wanted her to hang around more.

I just don’t know why that girl wants to hide everything from me...

Qiao Muyao was walking so preoccupied, and unknowingly walked out of the alley, and found that it was already this time, and there was still a vegetable seller who had not yet closed her stall.

Qiao Muyao planned to go shopping and buy some vegetables to eat at night.

All they sold were seasonal vegetables. Qiao Muyao looked at several but found nothing she wanted to eat.

Just when I was disappointed, I found that there were a lot of wild rice piled in front of the mother-in-law in front of me.

Having not eaten wild rice for a long time, Qiao Muchao's eyes lit up and she hurried over and asked her how she bought it.

"Young lady, she looks pretty good. Wild rice is not easy to pick, and the price is a bit expensive." The old lady knew from her accent that she was not a local, so she kindly reminded her.

It turns out that wild rice here is called wild rice. Qiao Muyao thought to herself, isn't it just a matter of eating and drinking in this life?As long as you want to eat it, it doesn’t matter whether it’s cheap or expensive.

Then he smiled and said, "Give me two kilograms."

"These two catties are worth 10 Wen. Do you really want that much?" the old lady asked in surprise.

The wild rice is not weighed on the scale, but two kilograms is quite a lot. Qiao Muchao counted out 10 copper coins from her purse and handed them to her.

Qiao Muchao was about to leave with the bamboo basket in her arms, but the old lady asked enthusiastically, "Looking at you coming out of the guild hall, could it be that you are accompanying your husband to take the exam?"

"My mother-in-law has really good eyesight!" Qiao Muyao praised.

"Can we still cook in the clubhouse? How much money does it cost to stay there for a month?" The old woman was a bit chatty.

"We agreed with the shopkeeper that we can cook as long as we pay some firewood. We live in a suite, which costs 30 fen a day, which is nearly one tael of silver a month."

The old woman slapped her thigh and said, "It costs one tael of silver a month. This is too expensive. Don't you want to rent a house to live in?"

It's not that she didn't think about it, she didn't want to move around because she only lived for a month.

But today she learned that Jin Yuzhong was going to isolate An Jingchen. Thinking of how she felt being isolated, Qiao Muyao thought it would be better to move out.

"That's a good idea. Does mother-in-law know where there is a house for rent nearby?"

The old woman thought for a while, "My neighbor, the widow, seemed to have mentioned renting half of the house a while ago. Her yard is quite quiet. If you want to rent it, you might as well go and take a look."

"Mother-in-law, does she know how much it costs per month?" Qiao Muyao thought to herself, if the price difference was not big, there would be no need to move there. "It shouldn't be more than 500 Wen. Why don't you, little lady, come with me and take a look?" The old woman looked at the remaining wild rice and said, "I'm too lazy to sell the remaining wild rice, so just bring it back to me." Then grandson, try something new."

The place where Widow Wei lives is not far from here, and it will be time for them to walk for half a stick of incense.

Knowing their purpose, Widow Wei immediately led Qiao Mu Yao around the yard.

There is a half-acre pond in front of the door. In the pond, under the lotus leaves in the fields, you can occasionally hear the chirping of insects and frogs.The loquat trees beside the lotus pond are covered with bright yellow fruits.

Peonies, zinnias and other flowers are planted around the courtyard, making the three tile-roofed houses particularly elegant.

Looking at this widow, who was about 25 years old, although she was dressed in coarse linen clothes, she was neatly tidied up. Qiao Muyao fell in love with this place at a glance.

She wants to rent a room and a half near the east end. The monthly rent is only 300 yuan, and it also has a separate kitchen.

After hearing that she lost her source of livelihood after her husband died, she thought of renting out half of the yard to supplement her family's income. Qiao Muyao made the decision without hesitation.

Saving a few hundred coins is a small thing, Qiao Muyao is interested in the environment here.

Thinking of the musk in the rice, she wished she could come over immediately.

Although the academic atmosphere in the academy is strong, the environment here is quiet. Maybe after moving here, Jing Chen can calm down, which will be more conducive to the examination room.

Finding a place to live was equivalent to solving the serious problem of being harmed by others. Qiao Muyao was particularly happy.

When she passed by the shop selling Tang people on the street, she was so happy that she bought several sugar figures and candied haws for Shao Qing.

In Fengxi Guild Hall, Zhuge Yu asked Shaoqing about his daily life with concern.

When I learned that the eldest princess, who was admired by all the people, had to live in such a humble room with a meager income, I was so heartbroken that I almost cried.

Shaoqing smiled calmly and said, "With a basket of food and a cup of drink, I am safe with simple food and food. Although I lived in fine clothes and fine food, I have never been so happy. If I didn't miss my brother, my father, and the son of Song Dynasty, Min, I really want to live my life like this."

The princess is only seven years old this year. I didn't expect that she, a little girl, could say such a great truth.

Zhuge Yu's heart suddenly choked up, why did he feel that he was an imposing man, but his knowledge was not as good as that of a seven-year-old child?

"Weichen still can't bear to see the princess living in such a place." Zhuge Yu said: "Weichen no longer forces the princess to leave, but he wants to buy a better house and provide some servants..."

"Do you want me to die?"

Before he could finish speaking, Yelu Shaoqing said angrily: "I have been observing for so long and found that brother Jingchen and sister Mu Yao are not ordinary people. They will definitely be able to protect me. On the contrary, if I get rich overnight, , it may very well lead to death. If you want me to live well, you should quickly return to Song Dynasty and announce my death!"

Zhuge Yu's nose felt sore, he took out a stack of silver notes and a black token from his arms, and presented them with both hands, "Please keep these, princess, in case of emergency."

Shaoqing looked at the token and asked, "This is..."

"The Black Iron Order from Jixiang Trading Company, if the princess has any difficulties, just take it to any Jixiang Trading Company, and someone will naturally solve it for you." Zhuge Yu said.

"Any difficulty?" Yelu Shaoqing was thinking, she remembered that there was such a firm in Fengxi County.

"Yes, including murder and arson!" Zhuge Yu said solemnly.
