Medical Immortals come from the future

Chapter 16 Thief
Chunxi waved her hands in fright: "Miss, please forgive me, you can ask Chunxi to do anything, but don't let Chunxi go to the kitchen, I just don't know how to cook!" There are many, but more and more moths come out.

"Why don't you go to the kitchen? What will you do when you get married?" Sima Qing looked surprised.

"Miss!" Chun Xi blushed with shame, looking as if she wished she could find a hole in the ground.How can the girl's family talk about getting married?How old is Miss, this is too shameless.

Sima Qing was teasing her on purpose, she felt that she would not be able to explain clearly to the little girl for a while, so without saying a word, she pushed her towards Nanyuan.

Nanyuan is not as far from Xiyuan as Beiyuan, and it is only a [-]-meter-long sky corridor.This aerial corridor is built between two mountain walls. The tall and wide corridor columns are simple landscape carvings. On both sides are brown wooden lattice-shaped half-person-high handrails. On the top is a dense corridor cover with eaves flying out obliquely , When it rains, the rainwater will flow down from the top, standing inside the handrail, it looks like a crystal flowing bead curtain.

Under the promenade is a gurgling brook. Standing on the upper corridor and looking far away, there are hills, forests and Beiyuan house yards shrouded in a thin layer of mist.

Walking through this air corridor, you can see the housing compound of Nanyuan.

Chun Xi really didn't want Sima Qing to come here. It's fine to make a big fuss in Beiyuan a few days ago, so why come here now?She is the most honorable lady here, how can she care about these trivial matters?She can count on one hand the number of times she has been here since she was a child!
Many maidservants and mothers on the road saw their masters and servants, and Chunxi came to pick up food every day. Everyone was familiar with them, but they were horrified when they saw Sima Qing.

Although she is rarely seen in the valley, just like those people in Beiyuan, who doesn't know the only eldest lady of the Sima family?Originally, the people here didn't like this lady, but the incident in Beiyuan a few days ago had already spread throughout the valley, which made many people who looked down on her before had to re-examine her.

There are even a lot of rumors:

——It is said that this lady was always pretending to be stupid in the past, but in fact she has always been very smart and powerful, and she was just testing people's hearts.

——It is said that after she lost her brain, she got rid of the blood in her brain when she was born, and then she became smart.

——It is said that if she survives a catastrophe, she will have a future blessing, and the god of medicine in the sky has come to protect her body.

……

In short, there is nothing to say.

Chunxi also taught her the tongue, but she didn't care at all, gossip and gossip are popular in any era, as long as they don't guess something like crossing soul possession, she doesn't have to care.

Sima Qing really seemed to be a different person. Even if she met a lot of people she didn't know, she not only didn't dodge or hide, but greeted everyone with a smile on her face.

In fact, she really wanted to say "hi, halo" to fool these ancient people, but she was afraid that if everyone really regarded her as a monster, the gain would not be worth the loss, so she gave up.

Although her appearance is enough to scare people.

Everyone who saw her was silently guessing: What is she doing here?

Sima Qing quickly told them the answer, because she asked Chunxi to take her directly to the kitchen compound.

Nanyuan also has many courtyards.

The kitchen, commonly known as the kitchen, is also grouped together in a large courtyard.There are a total of five large rooms and two small side rooms in this courtyard.The yard is quite spacious, with no flowers or trees, and there are two square wells on the left and right sides.

Most of the busy servants and women in the yard were elderly, and a few girls in coarse cloth were squatting by the well and washing vegetables.Because it is lunch time now, the chimneys on the roofs of several large houses are whistling and emitting white smoke, and the whole yard is in full swing, with the sounds of pots and pans, cooking, and shouting, and they are not close to the yard yet. , The aroma of the food wafted out in bursts.

This compound is in charge of the food for the entire Sacred Heart Valley, big and small, and three meals a day.The daily food is naturally divided into grades. The lowest grades are maids and relatives of maids. The medicine boy is the fourth grade. People like Shu Shi Niang and Sima Qing are first class.

Among the five large rooms in the courtyard, three are kitchens with stoves, and two of them have rows of dining tables made up of rectangular wooden tables, just like canteens in modern society. This is the first time Sima Qing saw it. Sometimes I think Sacred Heart Valley is really fashionable.

Three meals a day are prepared here. Basically, people below the second class will gather in these two "canteens" to eat, and those above the second class, such as senior sisters and brothers, will have their portion Send them to their respective yards in Xiyuan.

Although the Sacred Heart Valley also has a hierarchy, it is still very different from those Guanhuang families with big mansion gates.Although there are quite a few maids and mothers here, they are all serving the entire Sacred Heart Valley, and they are not assigned to anyone privately. They have to do all the work of water, clothing and food by themselves.

In the entire valley, only members of the Sima family have their own personal maids. For example, the Sima family's uncles, elders, teachers, uncles, and wives each have a personal servant. There is an old housekeeper who has been with him for more than [-] years.

When Sima Qing led Chunxi into the compound, almost no one noticed, so she let Chunxi take her around sneakily.

Lying by a window in the kitchen and looking in, a middle-aged man with a fat head, big ears, big ears and a round waist picked up a plate of raw meat and poured it into the large black iron pot on the stove with a splash, and with a whistling sound, a cloud of white smoke enveloped him. The heat rushed up.

Sima Qingtian's small face happened to be facing the pot, and after being so smoked, he almost choked to death without taking a breath!She hurriedly turned her face and leaned against the wall, coughing non-stop, Chunxi survived, but she was startled by her, and hurriedly patted her on the back to calm her down.

"What the hell, why am I so unlucky!" A certain woman complained while coughing.

The movement was so loud that the man in the kitchen would be an idiot if he didn't notice it.

"Who?! Who came to the kitchen to steal something!" The middle-aged man ran out yelling loudly.

When she saw the kitchen knife in his hand, Chunxi was so frightened that she lost her soul. She hurriedly stood in front of Sima Qing and explained loudly: "No, no, no! We, we are not stealing, stealing things!"

When the middle-aged man saw these two delicate little girls, he was taken aback for a moment, but soon showed a fierce expression: "Where did you two come from, little girls, you dare to come to my Chef Wang's kitchen?" Stealing something to eat? No wonder I put the food I just cooked in the past two days, and it always seems to be less, so it was you who did it?"

I rely on it!Sima Qing cursed inwardly, it was unlucky enough for her to be choked half to death, but now she is really accused of stealing mice, which is too bad!Alas, what the hell is she doing here?

It's a pity that there is no turning back when the bow is opened.

Her top priority is to solve the predicament in front of her. This uncle is as strong as a bull, with a streaky face, arms, and a kitchen knife... She doesn't want to leave her life in the hands of this guy.

"Hey, this...handsome guy, if you have something to say, please say it!" Under the knife, he had to say something that violated his conscience.

Sure enough, everyone loves to hear compliments. Hearing such a pretty little girl call her handsome guy with a sweet voice, the uncle's ferocious heart suddenly softened.

"Forget it, little girl, go back quickly, I won't pursue the matter of your stealing, don't do it again next time!"

Seeing that the uncle was surrendered, Sima Qing heaved a sigh of relief, patted her buttocks and stood up, gently pulled Chunxi together, and said to the uncle with an innocent and lovely smile: "Actually, we didn't steal anything, really .”

The uncle touched his head in confusion: "Then who are you? I have been walking in and out of this yard these days, and I haven't seen you two?"

Sima Qing was thinking about how to explain it to him, when she heard a strange cry from behind.

"Miss Qing? Girl Chunxi!"

The three of them looked back in unison, only to see a skinny old woman in a padded jacket with dark pattern of flowers standing there, looking at them with a look of surprise.

Both Chun Xi and Wang Chef knew her, and she was the head housekeeper of the two gardens in the southeast—the old mother of Hua Lan.

Chef Wang stepped aside and asked, "Guan Hua, do you know these two girls?"

Seeing her, Chunxi felt deeply that she had gotten into trouble, so she called out "Mother Hua" respectfully, then lowered her head,
Mother Hua ignored the two of them, walked straight to Sima Qing, sized her up, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Are you Miss Qing?"

Sima Qing didn't avoid her gaze at all, she looked at herself, and she looked at her too.

This old woman is thin and thin, and her clothes are simple but not rustic. She has a face of lotus seeds and a simple bun on her head. Except for a green jade hairpin on her head, she has no jewelry on her body. decorated.Fair skin, with a dignified smile on the corners of his lips, he is amiable, gentle and kind, but the deep wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and brows are all accusing the ruthlessness of the years. His eyes are deep and dignified, and it can be seen that this young man must have been a There is a story.

Sima Qing showed a smile that a 12-year-old girl should have, naive and a little shy, and replied in a sweet voice: "Mum, I am Sima Qing."

For her revealing her identity, Chef Wang was taken aback. Sima Qing... The focus is on this surname, who is the master of this Sacred Heart Valley?Isn't it the Sima family?The person surnamed Sima is still so young, isn't that the only one?
Oh my dear, just now he was holding a kitchen knife and treating him like a thief, look at his sharp eyesight!It's time to fight!
