Chapter 21
The faint scent of medicine wafted through her nostrils, Yao Yao closed her eyes and remained motionless, trying her best to pretend to be asleep.

Just sleep when you sleep, how can you still be so dishonest after sleeping, gnawing on her neck and ears, twitching hands under the blanket, don't tell her that she is feeling the pulse!
The salty pig's hand climbed from her waist all the way to her heart.

Yao Yao immediately opened her eyes wide, and moved in a panic, "Uh-cough cough forehead-cough cough-"

Qin Yilan stood up in surprise, "You! Didn't you take the medicine?"

Yao Yao stammered, "Drink, drink!"

"Little thing. There are a lot of sleep-soothing medicines in the prescription at night. After one dose of the medicine, you won't wake up at all. If you don't drink the medicine, don't talk about it, you still pretend to be asleep!"

In the night, Yao Yao couldn't see the man's face clearly, but she could vaguely see his shining eyes, which seemed to be on fire.

Yao Yao sat up and tried to meet his pupils, only to be annoyed that there was no candle at hand.

Yao Yao frowned and muttered, "What do you mean, Lord Hou? You put sleep-promoting medicine in my medicine? Is the medicine too effective? Can't sleep? If the house is on fire, don't I? Can't wake up?"

Qin Yilan couldn't help snickering, "It seems so."

Yao Yao covered her mouth and gasped, "Master Hou, how could you do this, wouldn't it be too dangerous for me?"

"No, with so many people in the family, are you afraid that no one will save you if you fall asleep at night? Besides, I also go home every night. You don't sleep well, and it's not good for your health."

Yao Yao lowered her head and thought hard, but was speechless for a while.

But suddenly, she suddenly raised her head again and said, "Then every night when Master Hou is asleep, he will..."

"Huh? What will happen?"

Yao Yao blushed, couldn't continue, and faltered, "Just...just now...you...um..."

"Speak clearly!"

Qin Yilan smirked, knowing what she was going to say, but pretended not to understand.

Yao Yao sighed helplessly, "I don't care, Master Hou will not give me that kind of medicine that makes people sleepy. Otherwise, if you are not here in the future, I will not even have the chance to call for help when I meet a flower picker."

Qin Yilan's face darkened, "Which thing without eyes will steal into my backyard. Eighteen generations of ancestors don't want it anymore?"

"..."

Qin Yilan hugged her into his arms, "My mansion is heavily guarded, and playing gongs and drums outside at night will not hinder you. Your sleep is the most important thing. There is no need to discuss this matter. As for the medicine, why didn't you drink it? You Explain it to me."

"Uh...I, I...I'm sorry, I accidentally knocked over the medicine." Why did he talk, as if he had done nothing wrong, it was all her fault?
Qin Yilan exhaled heavily, feeling that she was still lying, but he didn't intend to tangle with her on this issue.

The undrinked medicine must be made up.

Qin Yilan turned over and got down on the bed, and said, "Stay on the bed and wait obediently."

"Master Hou, it's getting late, it's not too late to drink tomorrow!"

"It's not too late!" Qin Yilan said angrily, "Drink it later, you will recover from illness one day later, and if you recover from illness, I will not be able to be with you..."

"What with me?" Why was it suddenly interrupted?

Qin Yilan snorted, "Small things that don't understand should still be punished."

Yao Yao's face suddenly changed, "No, no, Lord Hou, I am obedient, and I will drink the medicine obediently. You let me drink it by myself later, I have hands, feet and a mouth, so I can drink it by myself. "

Qin Yilan laughed suddenly, "He has hands and feet, but he is clumsy. He smashed a bowl without me staring at you. It looks like he has to be fed."

Yao Yao was very embarrassed, "Then just use a spoon! Use... a spoon...is it okay?"

"Ah……"

He didn't even bother to talk to her, he went straight out of the house, and came in with a medicine bowl after a while.

The room was already brightly lit, Yao Yao was sitting on the head of the bed, twisting her fingers anxiously.When the man brought the medicine bowl over, his little face twisted into a twist.

"Master Hou, the medicine is too bitter, so just let me be bored. Otherwise, who can bear this medicine for several hours?"

Qin Yilan was holding the bowl, sticking to her side, rubbing her forehead with a smile, "I don't feel bitter at all, this medicine is very sweet, it's not bitter at all after being smeared with honey by your little mouth."

"..." What are you talking about!
The medicine was fed from slightly scalding to ice-cold, and he would not give up without waiting for two hours.

It's so pitiful. From now on, it doesn't matter whether he is at home or not, it's better to obediently take his medicine.

Waking up early the next morning, Meng Tao raised her head and shouted, "Miss, what's wrong with your neck? Did you get bitten by something? Why are there so many bruises?"

Yao Yao went into the room to take a look, and also yelled again and again, "There are still mosquitoes in such a cold day?"

Meng Tao muttered, "Maybe it's not a mosquito, but a bug on the bedding."

"Then dry the quilt quickly."

"Ok."

The master and the servant started to dry the quilt busy, holding the quilt and patting it non-stop.

When Zhang Huiyi came over with the wooden box, she saw that the master and servant were very busy.

She walked over and pulled her face and said, "Is there no one in the Hou's mansion? Madam Hou needs to do it herself to dry the quilt?"

Yao Yao turned her head and said, "It's true that there is no one in the Hou's mansion. As for cleaning, I feel like I can't control it."

Zhang Huiyi was taken aback, "What do you mean Ma'am?"

Yao Yao pouted and smiled elegantly, "Three days ago, I told them to clean up the accounting room. After waiting for three days, I didn't see the servant raise a finger."

When Yao Yao got married, her natal family didn't bring many people with her. As the mother of the family, she just took charge of the family and didn't fit in with the group.

In fact, as long as Yao Yao reported this kind of trivial matter to Master Hou, and after Master Hou punished her, there would be no big problem.But she never mentioned it to Master Hou.

In her eyes, if she had to ask Master Hou for instructions on these trivial matters, she would not be able to manage the family well in the future.

Zhang Huiyi seemed to be able to see through Yao Yao's thoughts, so she was in a very good mood, confident, and said in a calm voice, "The accountant is an important place, how can ordinary servants dare to come in and out at will. Moreover, the two keys are in the hands of the lady. It is very uncomfortable to go in and out. Convenient. How about? When cleaning, Madam will sit outside the house and wait for supervision?"

Since she is so hardworking, let her work hard.

As long as she dares to ask someone to clean it, she will ask the cleaner to drag her for seven or eight days.Let this woman sit on a cold bench outside the house all day.

Unexpectedly, Yao Yao smiled and said, "I will open the warehouse door in the afternoon. If the housekeepers don't arrange their men to go in and clean it for a day, I will not close the door for a day."

Zhang Huiyi looked at her in horror, "Ma'am, the treasure house, you don't lock the door, what if you lose the treasure?"

"If the treasure is lost, it means that the caretaker is not good. The servants in the Hou's mansion are still sloppy. It's a bit embarrassing to say it. If something happens, then close the door, check what should be investigated, and what should be beaten."

From her tone, it seemed that she was eager for something to happen, and she was short of an excuse to hit someone.

Zhang Huiyi bit her lip and said discouragedly, "The servant girl will arrange for someone to clean it."

Holding the box, Zhang Huiyi asked, "What should I do with the thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum? Do I need to put it in the warehouse?"

"Well. Meng Tao, you can go to the warehouse with Miss Huiyi to lie down. Just open the door and let them clean it. You don't have to be thick there. You will come back when you open the door. I believe that the servants in the Hou's mansion are all loyal and absolutely not. Will do sneaky things."

"Yes, ma'am."

Seeing Mengtao holding the second key in her hand, Zhang Huiyi felt sore and astringent.
