Abandoned Wife and Marry Only: Daughter of Houmen

Chapter 320

Just last month, Hui'an held a Jiji ceremony in the Dongdu Imperial Palace, and the Empress Dowager even invited two old ladies from the Lu family and the Wang family in Dongdu to the palace to watch the ceremony, and personally inserted hairpins for her.The empress dowager's love for her in the past two years, and the decency that the empress dowager rewarded, moved Hui'an deeply.It's just that the Empress Dowager's status as an old man is precious, even if Hui'an wants to, she can't repay her.

Therefore, in addition to paying more attention to the Queen Mother, she also secretly vowed in her heart that she will not disappoint the Queen Mother, and will live a promising life. In the future, wherever Dingbei Palace can use her, she will do her best to repay her.

I don't mention these things, but now that Hui'an pushed open the door of Old Uncle Liu's house and looked at the simple courtyard, he felt a sense of reluctance.

This is probably the last time she will be here...

A few years ago, someone from the Guanfu in the capital city sent a letter stating that the wedding date of Hui An and Guan Yuanhe had been fixed, and it was set to be on June [-]th of this year.

The Tong family must have entered the capital as early as the wedding day, and stayed in the Fengyang Marquis Mansion just to prepare a dowry for Hui An and take care of trivial matters. It is only early February, and the Tong family has sent several letters to the east, urging Hui An to return to Beijing.

Although Hui'an missed Liucheng's simplicity, cleanliness, and leisure, she couldn't resist Mrs. Tong's repeated urging, and she wrote back that she would set off on another day, but this time she wanted to say goodbye to Uncle Liu.

Thinking of Hui An's face looking at the small courtyard, Xia'er couldn't help persuading her: "Liucheng is so close to the East Capital, and the Guan Mansion is in the East Capital. Other courtyards, girls will have to come to the east in the future. Thinking that Liucheng will only take half a day, there must be a chance to come back again."

Hui'an nodded upon hearing this, and then stepped into the yard.Uncle Liu's yard is not big, his wife passed away early, and his three sons have started their own families.Uncle Liu was not happy to live in his son's house. He thought it was inconvenient, so he still lived in this old courtyard by himself.

There are only four tile-roofed houses in the yard, two of the main rooms are living rooms, and one tile-roofed house is built on the east and west sides of the yard, the west side is used as a stove room, and the east side is a storage room for sundries.

At this moment, the door of the utility room was ajar, and some buckets, poles, shovels and other things piled up in the corner could be seen from the outside.Hui'an walked straight over, opened the door to have a look, then entered the room, and started to clean up the scattered herbs inside.

Xia Er gave a hand to the side, and before the two of them tidied up, they heard a shout coming from outside the yard.

"But Old Liu's house? Help! My horse is missing something, please show me."

It was an old man's voice, anxious in tone, Huian hurried out after hearing the words, but saw an old man with gray temples leading a short adult horse standing in the yard and looking towards the main house .Seeing Hui'an and Xia'er coming out one after another, he froze there.

"Master, what's wrong with your horse, let me take a look." Hui An said and walked over with a gentle smile on his lips.

The old man just woke up, looked at Hui An suspiciously, and muttered: "Could it be Hu Xian'er..."

Although his voice was not loud, Huian and Xia'er heard it too. Seeing Xia'er frowning and opening his mouth to speak, Hui'an glanced at Xia'er, then smiled at the old man: "Master, it's broad daylight." Where did the fox fairy come from? I am so old but I have never seen what a fox fairy looks like, let me take a look?"

Seeing that Hui An was not angry, Xia'er laughed instead, looking at Hui An's face that was brightened by the smile, she couldn't help thinking to herself, it's no wonder the old man thought so.In this small shabby house, a person with extraordinary clothes and looks like my own girl came out, so it's strange not to think about it.

When Hui An said that, the old man lost his tongue. He looked at Hui An and made a quick smile, then looked at him in surprise, and said, "Girl, is this the home of old man Liu, a veterinarian?"

Old Uncle Liu's name is Liu Sande, but he is an expert in treating domestic animals for hundreds of miles around Liucheng. Although he doesn't have a doctor's shop, there are usually many people who come to see him for the sick animals at home.When Hui'an came to Liucheng to find someone, it really didn't take much effort.

In the past two years, Hui'an has been learning to treat horse diseases with Uncle Liu, and often encounters people bringing sick animals to see a doctor, so the old man led the horse over, and Uncle Liu happened to be away, so Hui'an came out to greet him.

She heard what the old man said, but she didn't answer, she just looked carefully at the sick horse he was leading.

The horse looked really bad, depressed, with its head held high sullenly, as if unable to stand, with its two front hooves stretched forward, and its two hind legs stretched under its belly, in a squatting position.

Hui'an glanced at it twice, then turned around and pulled out Xia'er's riding whip pinned to her waist, and lashed hard at the horse.But he saw that the horse was moving with great difficulty, its steps were tense, and its muscles were trembling.

When she went down with the whip, the old man was taken aback. After being stunned, his face immediately turned black, and he stepped forward to block the horse, guarding the horse tightly behind him, staring at Hui An with wide eyes. , said angrily: "What's the matter with you girl! This horse is my old man's life. If there is something wrong with my horse, I can never end with you!"

Hui'an just pretended not to see it, and said with a smile: "Master, your horse has acute laminitis, and there are some minor injuries, it's nothing serious."

The old man was taken aback when he heard the words, then looked at Hui An suspiciously, and said with a look of disbelief: "Little girl lied to me, old man, can you understand horse sickness?"

"Master, I am the apprentice of Uncle Liu, so I will naturally see the horse's illness. Your horse only needs to be bled, and I will give it medicine for two days, and it will be fine after feeding it back." Hui An told Xia'er to go Get her medical kit.

After a while, Xia'er opened the small redwood box, took out the thin knife, but the old man refused to let Hui'an get close to his horse.Hui'an didn't say much, just said to Xia'er: "Bring an ingot of gold."

When Xia'er took out a small golden pancake from her purse, Hui'an took it and said to the old man with a smile, "Master, I'll heal this horse for you. If it's cured, I won't take any money. If it's cured, the golden pancake will be fine." Even if it is compensation, what do you think?"

The old man had never seen a gold pancake in his life, he stared at the gold in Hui'an's hand and began to think.
