Famous Doctor Woman

Chapter 136 A Letter From Home (4)
"is it?"

Mrs. Lu raised her eyebrows, a little surprised, when will Mo Xiang make mooncakes?That girl is notorious for her poor cooking skills. Speaking of this, Mrs. Lu remembered something. There was a little girl named Mo Yu in Mo Yan's yard, who happened to have the same pronunciation as Mo Yu. It seemed that she had to change it when she went back.

The person who can make cakes is definitely not Mo Xiang, that maid can burn the kitchen down.In fact, the real master was later Mo Bing, but her identity was secret, and she claimed to be from Huzhou, a flood-stricken area. The Lu family was a shrewd person, and Mo Yan was afraid of revealing her secrets, so she used Mo Xiang as a cover.

The arrival of Mo Bing was a surprise. This maid was excellent in needlework, martial arts, medicine and poisoning, and cooking. Mo Yan doubted that Wan Yuling could find such an all-rounder. It was so enviable. up.

So far, Mo Bing's attitude towards her is okay, but it's not up to the point of confiding in his heart.But Mo Yan is not in a hurry, she will use her own strength to prove that Mo Bing is absolutely right to follow her, and she can do whatever Yu Ling can give.

Since the second day was the Mid-Autumn Festival, the whole family had to get up early, and Mo Yan only practiced Kungfu for half an hour before falling asleep.But just for half an hour, it also made her waist sore and her legs hurt. She used the moves she learned from Wan Qi Yuling to fight against Mo Bing, and she was beaten to the ground with two hits at the first time. Mo Bing was very surprised by her speed of progress. Within a year, Mo Yan would definitely have the ability to protect herself.

Every festive season, this is Mo Yan's first Mid-Autumn Festival after crossing. She suddenly misses her relatives in Kyoto, her serious and loving father, her elder brother who cares about others all day long, and the one who travels abroad, but who is missing but loves the most her second brother.

Fortunately, I also spent the Mid-Autumn Festival with my family, which can be regarded as making up for the regret.Early in the morning, Mrs. Lu asked her mother-in-law to go shopping in the town, and Mo Xiang followed them and bought a lot of pickled salted duck eggs, ham and some nuts.

The job of making moon cakes was left to Mo Bing and Mo Xiang. The whole family had their own work, and it was not easy for Mo Yan to watch from the sidelines. She found the easiest one and went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables.

There is no shortage of meat at home. Last time Li Niang brought a lot of half-flavored bacon. This time I went to the town and bought roast duck and live fish. The chef is the third aunt Ma and Liniang, Liniang There is a way to make fish, the taste is very good, and the fish will not break when frying.

The family was busy, a carriage came outside the door, and a middle-aged man in silk got off.The man looked very polite, and said some polite words. He is the housekeeper of Xu Wang, the magistrate of Yingchuan County. He specially gave some festival gifts during the Mid-Autumn Festival. They were all about eating and expressing his heart.

"Ma'am, Ms. Mo, the villain is sending a message for our lord's wife. I sent a post before, but we haven't received a response for a long time. Our wife is also dizzy with joy. Only then did I remember that the empress has passed away and banquets are prohibited."

After Xu Wang went back that time, he waited anxiously for someone to come to the door. He waited for more than ten days and there was no news. Then he suddenly realized what a big mistake he had made.

One of the purposes of this visit is to give gifts, and I also want to see Lu's attitude. It is not allowed to have a banquet, but simply being a guest is always okay.If you don't take advantage of this opportunity to hug your thigh, the next opportunity will be far away.

"It's okay, just returned to my hometown, and the house is busy, so it's inevitable that there will be negligence."

Reaching out and not hitting the smiling face, this Xu Wang is not confused about major matters, and Mrs. Lu doesn't care about it, and after she leaves, the family will rely on Xu Wang to take care of her, so she is still polite to the housekeeper of Xu's house.

"Housekeeper Xu, a few days ago, some officials went to the village to search, and they said that there was a gangster who made people panic. Is there anything wrong?"

Luo Qi had already left, and Lu Shi also breathed a sigh of relief. She mentioned it by the way, and felt that it was necessary to ask to see what was going on in the county.

"Well, it's true, and the government is offering a reward."

Butler Xu was worried that he couldn't find a topic, but his master said that he wanted to get close to Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Zuodu Yushi, and win some favors. But where did the two have a common topic? With Lu's reminder, Butler Xu Immediately inspired.

"Ma'am, you haven't been in the city recently, so you may not know about it. I heard that the King of Nanping is missing!"

Steward Xu said that Yingchuan is not far from Huzhou, and it was news from the victims that only the men of King Nanping went to relieve the disaster, but he disappeared. It is said that he was assassinated and fell off the cliff.

Recently, Dayue is facing an eventful autumn, with floods in the south, the death of the empress, and even the news of the disappearance of King Nanping, the war god of Dayue. Although Yingchuan is not affected, Xu Wang still sighs and sighs. Officials are more sensitive. He thinks It was a little unusual, and I even wondered if Mo Zhongchen, the censor of Zuodu, had expected something a long time ago, otherwise, how could his wife and daughter return home at this time?
"Oh?"

Mrs. Lu had already received the news, she squinted her eyes, pretended to be surprised, and said after a while, "Auspicious people have their own aura, and the prince will definitely save the day."

Wan Teng Yuling is the son-in-law that Mrs. Lu is optimistic about, and she is waiting to return to Beijing to discuss with Mo Zhongchen, and to settle Mo Yan's marriage as soon as possible, so as to save her worry.Those narrow-minded ladies in Kyoto used to always say behind their backs that Yan Yan was an idiot, and Lu Shi was holding her breath a long time ago. This time she let these people see that they are even worse than an idiot!

How can Mrs. Lu be someone who can be talked about? Butler Xu went around in circles for a long time, but he didn't get any news, and he couldn't stay for too long, so he left unwillingly.

As soon as Guan Xu's family left, a man dressed as a soldier came behind him. It turned out that Mo Zhongchen's family letter from the capital had arrived and was sent to the post station last night. They didn't dare to delay, so they sent someone to set off early in the morning.

Seeing the thick letter, Mrs. Lu twitched the corner of her mouth, guessing in her heart what the master said in the letter, there should be nothing important, otherwise she would not entrust the post.The current emperor is a suspicious person, and there were nails in the mansion before, but they were all pulled out.

"Mom, did you hear that your father has sent you a letter?"

When Mo Yan got the news, she rushed over excitedly from the vegetable garden. She had a smile on her face. After leaving for such a long time, she really missed that petty but loving father. Every time she saw her father being speechless by her mother, she would Sneaking on the sidelines.

"Well, I have written so much, maybe it is to make up the word count, and I sent the daily food and daily life as a journal."

Although Mrs. Lu said that, she couldn't hide her good mood. When she left, she and the master stipulated that the number of words to be written in the family letter should be more. No, Mo Zhongchen really kept his word. It was so thick that it took several hours to write.
