Chapter 100 Anti-thief

Guan Yunlian's voice was a little thin.Although the inner room and the outer room are separated by two shoots, one light and one dark, it still spreads in slowly.

Xiao Shiji was anxious before, so he only lowered the curtain of the moon cave door in the inner room, outside only Zhihua rushed to close the small door leading to the end of the inner room, otherwise the voice would be heard more clearly.

Du Hengshuang heard this voice, before she could move, Xiao Shiji's face turned blue, he opened the curtain in front of the couch, put on his shoes and was about to go out.

Du Hengshuang hurriedly pulled Xiao Shiji back, "I'll go out and have a look. You big brother, why are you messing around with your younger siblings?" He was still suffocated by the phrase "fucking around" in his heart, so he had to take it out and shake it a dozen times.

Probe out from the curtain, put on embroidered shoes, and look in the mirror again.

Fortunately, Xiao Shiji still had sense of proportion. Although her skirt was torn, her hair was still in order, so she didn't need to make up any more. Only the red gold silk inlaid red sapphire, mutton fat and jade gourd hairpin slanted on her head. aside.

Xiao Shiji also came down from the couch, pursed his lips, walked behind Du Hengshuang, raised his arm slightly, and inserted the hairpin for her.

Du Hengshuang saw Xiao Shiji's brows twisted into Sichuan characters from the mirror of the dowry box, and knew that he was extremely angry, but the forbearance of traveling outside for so many years had made him unable to vent his anger indulgently, and his heart softened again. Turning around and shaking his hand, he said in a soft voice: "Don't be angry, I'll go and have a look. It's nothing worth it, just get angry with someone, and blind yourself for nothing."

Xiao Shiji hummed, wanted to say something, but stopped again.He went to help her open the door curtain and watched Du Hengshuang walk out gracefully.Going back to the inner room by himself, he closed the curtains in front of the couch, spread out the hibiscus mattress on the couch, patted the two lock brocade pillows on his head to loosen them, lay down on his side, crooked, and Feeling irritable, with an indescribable emotion stuck in his chest, he got up and paced the room with his hands behind his back.He sighed from time to time.

Du Hengshuang came out from the top, and lightly knocked on the door twice.

Zhihua heard that Du Hengshuang had come out, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "...Young Mistress?"

Du Hengshuang smiled at the door and said, "What's the matter? It's so lively?"

Zhihua opened the door, lifted the curtain with one hand, and watched Du Hengshuang come out from inside.

Ou Yangniang and another big maid, Zhishu, are holding Guan Yunlian.Don't let her break into the house.

The two maids Zhijie and Zhili who prepared earlier to be housekeepers shrank their heads and hid in the corner, their faces were coquettish and timid, and their eyes twinkled like frightened little white rabbits.

Du Hengshuang was a little unhappy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and asked with a smile: "What is this for? Are you practicing wrestling?"

The clever little maid stepped forward and helped Du Hengshuang to sit beside her.

Chen Yue shrank behind Guan Yunlian.Although he lowered his head, the peripheral vision from the corner of his eyes kept sweeping towards Du Hengshuang.

Seeing her sitting down dignifiedly.Casually ordered the servant girl below to clean up the servants in the house in an instant. The servants were respectful and only nodded in agreement, so they couldn't help being more vigilant in their hearts.

Du Hengshuang is really not to be underestimated. A 15-year-old girl has the aura that Chen Yuejiao has only experienced for decades in her previous life.

Guan Yunlian saw that Du Hengshuang came out as if nothing had happened.He secretly scolded her for "shameless" in his heart, with a look of grievance on his face.Said: "Sister-in-law, look at your maid, does she treat me as her master and tease me, how decent is she?"

Du Hengshuang was annoyed that she didn't know the seriousness, and if she didn't beat her up, she didn't know how to arrange her when she went out, but she was a sister-in-law, and she had only entered the house for the first day, so if she really broke out, it would be settled. ——When a new daughter-in-law comes in, she has to be honest for three days...

Du Hengshuang held the tea cover of the rose cup and covered the bowl of tea and knocked it on the rim of the cup, and said with a smile, "My brother and sister are wrong. One of them is my adoptive mother, and the other is my maidservant. Will it make things difficult for you? But you are an honored guest, they are devoted to me, neglected the honored guest, and hope that the second siblings will have a lot, so don't be as knowledgeable as them." He took a sip of tea and put it on the table.

Ou Yangniang and Zhishu let go of their hands, walked to Du Hengshuang from left to right and stood still.

Guan Yunlian shook her arms, leaned over to look at the end leading to the inner room, and asked with a half-smile: "Sister-in-law, let's clear the noodles under the water, you eat and I also see things, why don't you pretend to know nothing?" ah?"

"I don't understand that." Du Hengshuang said calmly, turning a green jadeite bracelet on his wrist with one hand.

"Don't understand? I don't understand what kind of door you lock in broad daylight?!" Guan Yunlian's face turned red with excitement, and her eyes widened.

Du Hengshuang chuckled, "Why do you lock the door in broad daylight? - Of course it's to guard against thieves! My uncle and I were in the house to check my dowry, as well as Xiao's shop. The books were piled up on the floor, and the door was not locked. What if it is stolen by a thief?"

Guan Yunlian choked for a moment, curled her lips, and said unwillingly, "Where are there thieves in the deep house?"

"Take all precautions, and it's hard to guard against house thieves." Du Hengshuang's face was serious, and his eyes seemed to have a cold light, and he looked towards Guan Yunlian.

Guan Yunlian shrunk her neck, took a step back, twisted the handkerchief in her hand, and said in an embarrassing way: "Didn't sister-in-law say that we are thieves?"

"How can the second younger brother and sister be so thoughtful? I said that they are just servants of the Xiao family. How could you put it on yourself? Wouldn't it be bad for my reputation to let others know? ——I won't take this trip. .” Du Hengshuang pointed to the first chair below, “Sit.”

Guan Yunlian didn't take her seat, she held back her anger and said, "Sister-in-law, it's not that we deliberately disturb your love with eldest brother, but mother told me that sister-in-law just came in, so I can take care of sister-in-law, and ask about what she likes to eat and what she uses. Now that it’s clear, I can go to the kitchen and prepare it for you.”

Du Hengshuang smiled, "Second brother and sister are interested. According to the rules, we will eat by ourselves for these three days, and we will have dinner with everyone after returning home in three days. I dare not break the rules."

Guan Yunlian wanted to persuade her again, but Chen Yuejiao saw that Du Hengshuang didn't want to get in, and knew that she would be humiliating herself if she said any more, so she hurriedly stepped forward and tugged at Guan Yunlian's lapel.He said crisply: "Cousin, we have brought the conversation, let's go back. Auntie thinks the anger has subsided." Calmly, he put eye drops on Long Xiangye.

Xiao Shiji heard it in the room, he let out a long sigh, stopped pacing, sat back on the couch, put his hands on his knees, waited silently for Du Hengshuang, feeling a little upset in his heart.Secretly thought that the second sibling used to look quite capable and organized the housework, but now it seems that they don't know how to advance or retreat?She made it so obvious that she entrusted her entire family to Shuang'er, and she still had the guts to come here to provoke her.Think again.Could it be that what he said was too cryptic, and they didn't understand?

Another headache.All these years when he was outside, the people he met with were all human sperm. He said one sentence, but there were five or six sentences hidden behind it.Those who can't know each other.The bones have filled the big ravine outside Chang'an City...

Xiao Shiji figured it out for a while, and felt incredible for a while.Hearing Du Hengshuang say "guard against thieves" outside, he couldn't help but smile. ——Shuang'er's mouth is really sharp, and she is a good daughter-in-law who can manage the family.

After grinning for a while, Xiao Shiji was building momentum for Du Hengshuang in the room, pretending to be impatient, and said: "Are you finished? The accounts here haven't been settled yet. I only have ten days to rest. If I can't finish it, I will But don’t care. I’ll leave it to you to fight for your life alone.”

Du Hengshuang stood up with a smile, nodded to Guan Yunlian and Chen Yuejiao, and said, "I'm busy here. I'll talk to my second sibling another day. I offended you today. Seeing off the guests." After speaking, she turned around and left, walked through the bushes, turned a corner and entered Go to the back room and close the door heavily.

Guan Yunlian had no choice but to leave with Chen Yuejiao. On the way, she thought up a story to go to Long Xiangye's place to add fuel and vinegar.

Chen Yuejiao sneered and said: "Cousin, I advise you to save some money. Now that you have lost your mother's family, and the Xiao family's wealth is in the hands of the young lady, you are still fighting against her. Be careful when she looks sour, she will kill you. Get the whole family out."

Guan Yunlian was a little apprehensive, and grabbed Chen Yuejiao's hand anxiously, "No way? I always listen to my mother-in-law. No matter how powerful she is, can she get around my mother-in-law?"

Chen Yuejiao smiled slightly, "Let's just watch. We are not the ones on the cards, and it is best for the two parties not to offend."

The two discussed quietly, returned to Longxiangye's house, and said with a smile: "Mother, sister-in-law and elder brother are loving each other, and no one is allowed to disturb you. We stabbed the tiger's nose and eyes with straw sticks. I don't know what to do in the future." Toss us."

Long Xiangye frowned when she heard this, shook her head and said, "As expected. —Forget it, let's talk about it in three days."

Chen Yuejiao and Guan Yunlian secretly looked at each other and smiled, one left and one right stepped forward, knelt down and beat Long Xiangye's leg.

Long Xiangye propped her head against the low table of Luohan's bed, closed her eyes and fell asleep very comfortably.

In Du Hengshuang's inner room, Xiao Shiji was silent for a while, and then said with difficulty: "It's hard for you."

"It's nothing, it's just that your mother-in-law, the gatekeeper, is going to knock and knock. Anyone can be let in, and you can't even pass it on." Du Hengshuang said lightly.Since she was married to Xiao Shiji, she was already prepared for these things, besides, she was really uncomfortable, and the two rushed in rashly, which just happened to relieve her siege.

Xiao Shiji let out a long sigh, and fell on his back on the long couch, holding his head and looking at the mahogany open-carved crabapple palace lantern hanging from the beams of the roof, he wanted to say something, but couldn't speak.

The son didn't say anything about his mother's faults, so he couldn't blame his own mother in front of Du Hengshuang.Even if he said it, it would only make Du Hengshuang look down on him.

Du Hengshuang looked at the sun outside the window, took off a piece of jewelry that was heavily makeup on his head, went behind the screen and changed into regular clothes, only a white jade hairpin was inserted on his head, making his crow-blue hair look more and more Delightful.

"You said you want to reconcile the accounts with me, why don't you go and get the account book, let's reconcile the accounts after dinner." Du Hengshuang intentionally distracted Xiao Shiji's attention.

Xiao Shiji was also newly married, and it was the first time he met a woman in 18 years, and it was the girl he had wanted to marry since he was a child, so he was a little uncertain.

However, when he was disturbed by the people in the second room, he also came to his senses, got up from the bed with a smile, and said to Du Hengshuang, "I'll go to the outer courtyard to get the general ledger. Let's look at the general ledger first, and then look at the detailed ledger in a few days." Bar."

Du Hengshuang agreed, and went to order the small kitchen to cook. On the other hand, she went back to her room and asked Zhihua and Ou Yangniang to clean up the Dongji room for her and decorate it as a study, where she will be director in the future.

Xiao Shiji's study in the outer courtyard will be shared with her, so there is no need to decorate it.

When it was time to light the lanterns, the shops and markets in Chang'an City began to close their doors.

Zhu Susu's three entered the house.Several servants came out carrying coals and lit the lanterns under the porch one after another.

Zhu Susu's mother, You Qianniang, had finished dinner, but Zhu Susu's figure was not there yet, she was a little worried, and called Zhu Susu's maid over to inquire.

The maid also shook her head when she asked.

You Qianniang was even more worried, and took a little maid to Xiaokuayuan where Zhu Susu lived.

In addition to being her boudoir, it is also her pharmacy.On weekdays, she is very concerned about her pharmacy, so that several confidant maids and women are watching closely, and no one is allowed to enter.

You Qianniang came to the gate of the courtyard.Seeing that Wu Shicheng was guarding the door, he couldn't help frowning, and asked, "Is Missy inside?"

Wu Shicheng saw that it was the host's mother who came over, he quickly stood up and saluted, and said with a simple and honest smile: "Yes, the eldest lady has been busy making pickles."

You Qianniang chuckled.She flicked the handkerchief in her hand, "What pickles? You've also learned badly now, and you can tell lies."

Wu Shicheng hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Really not. The eldest lady has been pouring out several large pickle jars to pickle vegetables in these few days."

Seeing that Wu Shicheng doesn't look like a liar, is it true?

You Qianniang weighed her feet and squinted her eyes to look into the yard.

Her daughter.She knows best.

It is possible to be locked up in the yard for a few days and nights to rub pills, but she is required to learn how to cook and become a female celebrity.It was worse than killing her.

Really make pickles, that is when the sun comes out from the west.

Besides, even if you're really making pickles, it's August now, so you're not afraid of making one pot and ruining the other?

Pickles are only pickled in the twelfth lunar month.

You Qianniang murmured in her heart.

"Get out of the way, I'll go in and have a look." You Qianniang was worried, worried that Zhu Susu had been possessed by a demon.

Wu Shicheng refused, and blocked the door with his arms outstretched. "Miss said, no one will be allowed in."

"I'm not an outsider." You Qianniang was a little annoyed.

Wu Shicheng is too stubborn.Oil and salt do not enter.

"Miss said that even if Madam comes, she won't be allowed in." Wu Shicheng said seriously.

He was tall and strong, standing at the door with his arms outstretched, which was a bit scary.

You Qianniang didn't dare to force her way in, she pondered: "Today is the day for the Xiao family to treat guests, has the young lady gone yet?"

Wu Shicheng slapped his head and said loudly: "Ouch! I forgot!" He quickly turned around and shouted to the courtyard: "Miss, Miss Xiao will meet today, did Miss give you a present?"

Zhu Susu entrusted Wu Shicheng to Xiao Shiji, and asked him to help him find a job for Wu Shicheng in Yijun Wangfu.

Xiao Shiji has already agreed, saying that he will take Wu Shicheng to the palace after his wedding.

The Xiao family met today and sent Zhu Susu a post.

Zhu Susu was wearing homemade sheepskin gloves in the room, sweating profusely putting the old mustard greens that had been dried and moldy in the past few days into the newly bought big tank.

From the "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" given to her by Wu Shicheng, Zhu Susu found some prescriptions attached to the book, which did not seem to be the original work of "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases", but some research experience of later generations, but Put it together with the book.

Among them is the famous Chen mustard stew in later generations.

When Zhu Susu was flipping through "Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases", she found this single prescription at a glance, she felt like a treasure, and almost fainted from joy.

But she knew that this famous "Chen mustard stew" was the early native penicillin!

In this era, with penicillin in hand, a doctor can basically walk sideways.

It can be said that the road to wealth and honor is already in sight.From the royal family to the high-ranking officials, they would cry and beg her for medical treatment...

Zhu Susu kindly looked at the piles of moldy old mustard greens in front of her, as happy as seeing piles of silver.

According to the original ancient recipe, it takes about ten years to make a jar of aged mustard stew.

But Zhu Susu is from a later generation, and she is a pharmacy major. She knows very well that the so-called "old mustard stew" recipe is the method of cultivating penicillin bacteria.It took ten years for the original recipe because the person who invented the recipe knew it but didn't know why.

For her, as long as she knows the ins and outs of the whole original recipe, she knows which link can be improved and which link can be accelerated.

Bacterial culture, as long as the bacteria are provided with a suitable environment and enough food, the bacteria can grow quickly.

She is sure that the time for penicillin to become a medicine can be shortened to half a year.

If it is successful, she can continue to improve it in the future, and it is best to shorten it to one month.

Of course, it is incomparable with the sterile culture environment in the laboratory in her previous life.

Picking up her old job again, Zhu Susu was so excited that she completely forgot Xiao Shiji's invitation.

Hearing Wu Shicheng's voice, Zhu Susu patted her forehead belatedly, let out a meow, and replied loudly: "Go tell Madam, prepare a generous gift for me, and I will apologize tomorrow!"

Today is the day, she actually forgot all about it.

Zhu Susu was a little depressed, but looking at the old mustard stew that was about to be sealed, Zhu Susu felt hopeful again.

With them, it would be appropriate for her to go to Yi County Prince's Mansion to be a side concubine.Xiao family, hehehehe, leave it to Du Hengshuang to deal with the headache...

With a smile, Zhu Susu sealed the big vegetable jars one by one, and poured boiling water on the side of the upside-down bowl lid groove to block the air.

"Wu Shicheng, come in and bury the vegetable jar for me!" Zhu Susu shouted to the outside.

You Qianniang dropped her jaw in shock. ——Is it really pickled pickles? !

Wu Shicheng responded with an "ah", closed the courtyard door in front of You Qianniang, put the latch on, trotted all the way up the steps, and entered the east chamber.

"This is the coolest place. You dig ten holes here, and bury these ten vegetable altars for me." Zhu Susu instructed Wu Shicheng to work, and she was so tired that she gasped beside her.

Wu Shicheng was the most obedient, so he picked up his hoe and started digging without saying a word.

Zhu Susu went back to her room to clean up, took a rest early, and planned to bring a gift to Xiao's house the next day to make amends.

But in the courtyard of the Xiao family's new house, Du Hengshuang refused to go back to the house to rest for a long time, and dragged Ou Yangniang to talk about it.

Xiao Shiji came over to look around several times, but Du Hengshuang pretended not to see it.

Ou Yangniang couldn't see it, took Du Hengshuang's hand, and asked in a low voice: "Tell me honestly, is it because your bed curtains are not getting along?" (To be continued.
