Chapter three hundred and ninety third
Hearing this news, Ji Qingnian was stunned and asked in surprise: "I remember that the lady of the Yang Mansion passed away a long time ago, why did she suddenly come back to life?"
Ye Hanzhou laughed and then explained: "During the days when you two left Qingshan Town, the head of the Yang family took another concubine on a whim. He was very loving to the concubine, and later he even opposed the public and made her a name, making her the wife of the main wife, the stepmother of Young Master Yang Zheng."
Mingyin squirted out the tea in his mouth with a sniffle, covered his stomach and laughed: "That old guy is really old. I remember he is already in his sixties, but he is still so inappropriate." Mingyin was shocked by the style of the head of the Yang family. Fortunately, the tea in his mouth was sprayed out, otherwise he would have caused some internal injuries.
After saying that, Mingyin's lips moved, and suddenly began to recite a poem. He said loudly: "The sixteen-year-old wife, Sixty-six, are covered with pear blossoms and begonia."
Ji Qingnian glared at Mingyin and scolded in a sweet voice: "Don't tamper with other people's poems. Before you even recognize the words, you started to learn from others to recite poems and essays. You are overestimating your own abilities." I don't know where this guy heard these strange statements.
Mingyin smiled embarrassedly, then got up and picked up the tray on the table, walked towards the compartment, and said without looking back: "The tea is cold, I'll go and cook another pot of water. You two will chat first."
Seeing this, Ye Hanzhou was stunned, pointed to the direction of Ming Yin's departure, and said in confusion: "Why did Brother Ming suddenly think about going to boil water and make tea? Isn't he not a fan of drinking tea?"
Looking at Ming Yin's leaving figure, Ji Qingnian closed the teacup in his hand, shook his head helplessly, and sighed: "Burning water and making tea is just a cover. That guy probably hid somewhere to drink wine again."
Ye Hanzhou laughed and looked at Ji Qingnian and said, "I remember he quit drinking, why did he go to the palace and start to get addicted to alcohol again?"
Ji Qingnian shook his head and said angrily: "The only thing I know about him. I guess, it was probably because he was taken away by General Murong. During those days, I was alone in Yangxin Palace to treat the Empress Dowager. I couldn't see anyone else all day long. Now I think I should have gone to the general's mansion to drink."
As Ji Qingnian expected, after Mingyin left the tea hall, he walked straight towards the south room of the dumping stove. After arriving, he moved the firewood piled in front of the door with both hands, then raised the hoe placed beside him and dug it up deep and shallowly. When a metal collision sounded, Mingyin was overjoyed and quickly threw down the hoe in his hand, squatted down and looked into the pile of soil with his hands.
"Sure enough, the boy in Ye Hanzhou is too stupid. He hasn't found this jar of daughters in so many days."
Mingyin reached out and patted the soil outside the wine jar, and spoke with a proud look.
This jar of daughter Hong was originally used by Ye Hanzhou to make wine, but later she was forced to take over by Mingyin, and then he buried her in this place.
Mingyin slapped the seal of the clay sculpture with his palm, and the rich aroma of wine instantly radiated from the mouth of the jar. He swayed his nose, took a deep breath, then tilted his neck and poured a big mouth into his mouth.
The spicy wine flowed down his throat and into his stomach. He felt extremely happy and wanted to raise his arms and shout.
Mingyin wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, and then planned to take another big gulp. At this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Ji Qingnian standing by the corridor and staring at him as if he was smiling.
Mingyin shuddered, and his slightly drunk head suddenly woke up. He grabbed the wine jar with one hand and hid it behind him. He looked at Ji Qingnian and said with awkward smile: "Madam, why did you run out? It's cold outside. Come into the house and rest. Let me burn the tea."
Ji Qingnian didn't say anything, but stretched out a flawless palm towards Mingyin and said word by word: "Take the thing over."
Mingyin opened his mouth and wanted to explain something, but when he saw Ji Qingnian's calm eyes, he was so scared that he didn't dare to speak. The couple had been together for many years. Mingyin knew Ji Qingnian so well. When Ji Qingnian was really angry, there would not be a trace of anger on his face, but on the contrary, he would look extremely calm.
Mingyin knew that he could not hide it anymore and no longer did useless work now. He took out the wine hidden behind him.
The jar then hung his head and walked towards Ji Qingnian step by step.
"Brother Ming, this jar of wine looks so familiar. If you guessed correctly, it should be the one that you took away from me."
Ye Hanzhou appeared beside Ji Qingnian at some point. He put his hands behind his head and said jokingly at Mingyin.
Ming Yin didn't bother to pay attention to him, and after handing the jar of wine in his hand to Ji Qingnian, he stood there with his head down and quietly waited for his wife's preaching.
The wine jar was very heavy. Ji Qingnian used two hands to hold it up. She handed the wine jar to Ye Hanzhou beside her and said softly: "Hanzhou, since this is your thing, I will make the decision for Mingyin now and return it to the original owner."
Ye Hanzhou took the jar of wine, then put it casually on the ground, waved his hand at Ji Qingnian, and said indifferently: "This jar of wine was taken away from me by Brother Ming's strength, so this is his thing. It may be inappropriate for me to accept it now."
When Mingyin heard this, he immediately raised his head and grinned at Ye Hanzhou, and said with satisfaction: "Boy Ye, I'm not wrong with you, I'm really sensible."
Ji Qingnian glared at Mingyin and signaled him to stop. Then she turned around and said in a deep voice to Ye Hanzhou: "You can't let this guy drink anymore. The clinic will be busy in the next few days. I have to let him quit the alcohol again. He will do something wrong once he drinks."
Ye Hanzhou was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded heavily. He bent down and hugged the jar of wine on the ground, then curled his lips helplessly at Mingyin and said softly: "Brother Ming, since the owner has already said anything, I will keep this jar of daughter Hong on my behalf. When you don't want to drink one day, I will return it to you with my own hands."
Mingyin's lips twitched slightly. Ye Hanzhou said this clearly, just to be a recreational service. When he really quit drinking, he lost interest in this jar of wine.
"Okay, okay, I'll go back to my room to rest. I'll have to get up early to do things tomorrow."
Ji Qingnian put his hands on his hips and gave a loud command to the two of them.
Ye Hanzhou nodded, then nodded at Ji Qingnian and Mingyin, then turned around and walked towards his room.
Seeing Mingyin still stunned, Ji Qingnian couldn't help but say angrily: "What I said is not good, right? I won't listen if you ask you to go back to your room to rest."
Mingyin scratched his head, stared at Ji Qingnian without blinking, and then said nervously: "Madam, don't we stay together tonight?"
Ji Qingnian snorted coldly and replied faintly: "I could have lived together, but given your bad behavior just now, I decided to change my mind. Let's sleep on our own tonight, so no one can get in the way."
Mingyin was immediately anxious when he heard this. He stepped forward and stopped Ji Qingnian's face two steps, and then begged: "Madam, can't I know I'm wrong? I will quit drinking from tomorrow and will never drink it again. No matter how good I drink it."
Ji Qingnian rolled her eyes, then raised her feet and strode towards the room. At the same time, her indifferent voice slowly came.
"I'm determined, you can sleep by yourself tonight. I don't want to sleep next to someone who is covered in alcohol. That will cause nightmares."
Ji Qingnian's figure quickly disappeared from Mingyin's sight. After a while, the lights in the room were turned off, leaving Mingyin alone standing in the courtyard, with a bitter look on his face.
He glanced at the dim sky, then raised his foot and walked towards another wing room. He knew that he would definitely have only one person to sleep tonight.
Time passed by bit by bit, and the night was gradually passing. When the chickens behind the clinic cried a few times, the door of the clinic slowly opened. Ji Qingnian pushed the door out and looked at the rising sun with only half of her head exposed in the skyline. She raised her arms and stretched, and a moving smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
On the path outside the clinic, Wang Xiaoli and Dong Dali each rode a mule toward this place. The peddlers in their clinic arrived here early in the morning and were about to start their work.
Dong Dali has excellent eyesight. From a distance, he saw Ji Qingnian standing by the clinic. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
Then he said to Wang Xiaoli beside him: "Hey, please see if there is someone standing there? Why do I feel like the owner is back?"
Wang Xiaoli was stunned when he heard this, and then suddenly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Dong Dali's finger. Sure enough, he saw a graceful woman standing by the door and waved to them.
"Da Li, Xiao Li, why did he come so early?"
Ji Qingnian waved her hand and shouted at the two of them with a smile.
Wang Xiaoli reached out to sort out the messy silk on his head, then turned his head and asked Dong Dali: "Dali, please see if my head is still messy, and if there is any place to be sorted out."
Dong Dali rolled his eyes, then said contemptuously: "If you really want to sort out, you have to sort out your whole body, especially your crooked face, which can be rebuilt."
Wang Xiaoli was immediately angry when he heard this. If Ji Qingnian hadn't stood in the distance and looked at them, he would have really wanted to jump off the mule and rush over to beat Dong Dali.
The two came to the courtyard of the clinic, then tied the mule to two trees, and then walked towards Ji Qingnian with a smile.
