Although the light was not very bright, Fu Xie caught a glimpse of the bowl with leftover medicine residue on the table, saw Hu Caiwei lying in bed with a sick look on her face, and Lu Wuyuan sitting on the ground leaning on the edge of the bed and fell asleep from exhaustion, and immediately knew what was going on.
He was surprised and relieved that Wu Yuanjing knew how to take care of others, which really impressed him.
He sat down on the edge of the bed and looked at the sleeping Hu Caiwei. He was fine the past two days, but why did he become so sick?
As for Lu Wuyuan, his originally handsome face was now covered in patches of black and gray, which made people laugh.
His eyes were closed tightly, but his brows were furrowed, as if he was deeply troubled and sad.
In order to prevent Lu Wuyuan from waking up suddenly and causing misunderstandings, Xie Fu gently tapped Lu Wuyuan's body to make him sleep deeper.
Then he took Hu Caiwei's pulse and wanted to see what disease she was suffering from.
The pulse is sometimes loose and tight, sometimes floating, and the pulse is chaotic and unreasonable. There is cold evil on the surface and stagnation of heat internally. It should be internal stagnation of wind-heat and wind-cold, and the two diseases come at the same time.
This disease is the most troublesome and time-consuming. Even if you take medicine on time, it will take ten and a half days to recover.
Ten days and a half is a good opportunity for the two of them to get along well, but can Lu Wuyuan take good care of Hu Caiwei?
Furthermore, having said that illness comes and goes like a mountain, it is better not to make fun of Hu Caiwei's health.
Immediately, he used the blessing mantra to cure her illness so that she could recover as soon as possible.
Hu Caiwei was confused and felt someone touching her body, and said delicately: "Don't touch me."
"Caiwei, it's me."
Hearing the voice of her eldest brother, Hu Caiwei immediately trusted her and felt relieved. Her body felt warm and comfortable, and her eyes that were originally too heavy to open opened, "Brother, why are you here?"
Xie Fu smiled: "I was worried about you, so I came over to take a look."
"Brother, I..."
"Caiwei, you are sick."
"Brother, tell Sister Ruyi that it will take some time before you can give her the tea."
Xie Fu smiled and said: "It doesn't matter whether it's your illness or the tea."
"You'd better tell sister Ruyi."
"Don't think about these trivial things. You will recover tomorrow. Then you can talk to her yourself."
Hu Caiwei smiled, thinking that Fu Xie was comforting her, while Fu Xie closed his eyes and concentrated on treating Hu Caiwei. After all, giving alms and blessing mantras is an extremely energy-consuming thing.
Silently, Hu Caiwei noticed Lu Wuyuan sitting on the ground and sleeping on the edge of the bed, and was a little moved.
Although she was groggy from the illness, she was not unconscious yet. She knew that it was Lu Wuyuan who carried her to see the doctor on his back, and also knew that Lu Wuyuan had been taking care of her while making medicine all day long.
If you think about it carefully, besides your parents and your eldest brother, Lu Wuyuan is the one who treats you the best.
As for Xie Li, they had always been respectful to each other since they got along. Suddenly she was a little glad that she didn't marry Xie Li, and she was also grateful for Xie Li's rejection.
Although Xie Fu closed his eyes, he could still notice Hu Caiwei's eyes falling on Lu Wuyuan, and asked deliberately: "Who is this person?"
"His name is Lu Wuyuan. He is a new guy in the tea shop. He has a good heart, but he is a bit stupid."
Xie Fu couldn't help laughing after hearing this. Lu Wuyuan had a good heart, but this little bastard just needed a beating and discipline. Calling him stupid didn't make any difference at all.
"Brother, why are you laughing?"
Xie Fu probed: "Caiwei, you like him, I've never seen you praise others so much."
Hu Caiwei's face suddenly became shy: "Brother, don't get me wrong, I've only known him for a day or two, how could I possibly fall in love with him."
"Love at first sight is also common."
Hu Caiwei said angrily: "Brother, please stop making fun of me. I really don't have any thoughts. I just treat him as a little brother."
Xie Fu felt bad when he heard the word "little brother". A woman who treats you as a younger brother really treats you as a younger brother. It is difficult to suddenly reach this psychological limit. He smiled and said, "What? I dislike others for being too ordinary. I don't deserve it."
Not having sex with you?"
"Brother, if you treat Caiwei like this, Caiwei will be angry. Caiwei is originally a farm girl, so what right does she have to look down on others? It's just... I don't want to think about these things for the time being."
"Why, you really don't feel any excitement?"
Hu Caiwei said angrily: "Brother, no, I really just treat him as a little brother."
Xie Fu said: "I think he is quite handsome."
When Hu Caiwei saw the black ash on Lu Wuyuan's face, she chuckled: "How handsome he is."
Xie Fu got rid of the stagnation of heat and coldness in Hu Caiwei's body, let Hu Caiwei have a good sleep, and then left.
…
Early the next morning, Lu Wuyuan had a nightmare, and he woke up: "Sister Caiwei!"
Seeing that it was just a dream, he breathed a sigh of relief. He dreamed that Hu Caiwei died of illness, and he was so sad that he cried until his heart broke.
I felt my face was wet, so I wiped it on my face, and cried in my sleep with tears all over my face.
I thought to myself that if she knew that I cried like this for her, she would laugh at me severely.
At this moment, I still had lingering fears. Fortunately, it was just a dream. I looked towards the bed and saw that the bed was empty. I stood up in surprise. Where was Sister Caiwei?
He started searching in a panic: "Sister Caiwei!"
Smoke curls up from the kitchen chimney, like a silver snake dancing in the light of dawn.
Hu Caiwei heard Lu Wuyuan's shouting and ran out of the kitchen with a spatula in her hand. When she saw Lu Wuyuan shouting recklessly in the yard, she responded loudly: "Little brother, I'm here."
Lu Wuyuan was ecstatic and rushed towards her: "Sister Caiwei."
Seeing his face covered with tears, Hu Caiwei smiled and said, "Why do you look like a child who has lost his mother?"
Suddenly, Lu Wuyuan hugged her hard and said excitedly: "You're okay, that's great."
Hu Caiwei's expression was stunned for a moment, then she pushed Lu Wuyuan away with all her strength, and said with a straight face: "Men and women are not allowed to be intimate, don't you understand?"
Lu Wuyuan murmured: "I...I...dreamed that you died of illness. I was so happy and excited to see you just now."
"Bah, bah, bah, you're talking nonsense. I'm fine. Let's forget it this time. If you do this again next time, I'll drive you away."
Lu Wuyuan nodded honestly: "Yes, yes."
Seeing his honest and courteous look, Hu Caiwei believed that he was unintentional and said with a smile: "Why is it so early in the morning that your face is wet with dew?"
Lu Wuyuan immediately blushed with embarrassment. If anyone dared to laugh at him like this, he would immediately slap him with a big mouth.
Hu Caiwei joked like a big sister: "Wu Yuan, have you lost your mother and can't find her?"
Lu Wuyuan was stunned and responded without hesitation: "Sister Caiwei, why don't you become my mother so that I can hug you."
Hu Caiwei's expression froze, and she turned and walked into the kitchen.
Lu Wuyuan was just curious when he saw Hu Caiwei striding over to him with a piece of wheat straw as thick as a stick in his fingers, and slapped him on the thigh: "Let you talk nonsense and see if I don't slap you."
Lu Wuyuan hid while shouting: "Sister Caiwei, don't dare talk nonsense anymore."
Hu Caiwei just pretended to teach him a lesson, and said that the wheat straw was not very painful when beaten. Seeing Lu Wuyuan hiding away, she smiled and said: "It's good if you know how to be honest." She turned around and returned to the kitchen.
Lu Wuyuan's thighs were sore from being spanked, and he felt very happy. He just felt that he was being a bitch, and he especially liked being spanked by her...
Hu Caiwei's voice came from the kitchen: "I can't be your mother, but I can be your sister."
Lu Wuyuan wanted to say in his heart, can she be my wife? But he didn't dare to say it out loud.
"Breakfast will be ready soon, please wait patiently."
…
Zhang Lingxiao is a guest, and Xie Fu is the host. He shows his kindness as a landlord and takes Zhang Lingxiao to see the scenery of Yangzhou, and at the same time introduces Zhang Lingxiao to Qiu Ruyi.
Since Zhang Lingxiao met the famous Qiu Ruyi, he often played chess with Qiu Ruyi, which was a source of entertainment and he enjoyed it.
Qiu Ruyi is different from the talented brothel actresses that Zhang Lingxiao usually comes into contact with. This difference is reflected in the difference in status. This Liyuan female official is enough to be on an equal footing with this famous prince.
If there is any inferiority, it is the inferiority of gender. After all, this is a world dominated by men.
Early on, Xie Fu came to see Zhang Lingxiao. The two had a close relationship. Xie Fu went directly into the room and woke up Zhang Lingxiao, who was still sleeping.
Zhang Lingxiao said angrily: "Brother Xie, do you know that disturbing people's dreams is like seeking money and killing people?"
Xie Fu saw the thick dark circles under Zhang Lingxiao's eyes and laughed loudly: "Did you go to bed very late?"
Zhang Lingxiao nodded, and Xie Fu asked again: "Then who won the game of chess last night?"
"The game ends in a draw."
Xie Fu was quite excited and said: "From losing three pieces, to losing one piece, and then to a draw, are we going to turn defeat into victory today? Let's go, today I will sit in from the side and we two brothers will win this woman."
"I'm not going today."
Xie Fu was curious: "Why?"
Zhang Lingxiao said: "Qiu's chess skills have reached the level of excellence. She and I are not on the same level. We are just like idlers playing with children."
"Isn't it going to end in a draw?"
Zhang Lingxiao smiled: "Brother Xie, have you ever played chess with her?"
"certainly."
"What's the outcome?"
"The more you lose, the less you win."
Zhang Lingxiao asked again: "Then do you know her chess skills clearly?"
"this……"
"You can't figure it out. You and I are not strong enough to figure out his chess skills." Zhang Lingxiao explained immediately: "I try my best, but she is multitasking."
"Why do you do two things at once?"
"These two uses are, one is for playing chess with me, and the other is for you."
Xie Fu pretended to be stupid: "Why are you using it on me?"
"Brother Xie, do you regard me as a fool? She is flirting with you, do you think I am not aware of it?"
Xie Fu suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "I have known her for many years and we are like brothers. That's how she is. Ling Xiao, you don't have to take her seriously."
Zhang Lingxiao laughed heartily: "Brother Xie, I think back when we and Wenlin and I were flirting and falling in love with the lady of the brothel in the brothel, how did you ever see me minding it?"
"where……"
Zhang Lingxiao smiled and said: "I specifically mentioned it today because I am obsessed with Qiu Ruyi. If I don't get out in time, I will fall into it."
Xie Fu said sincerely: "Ling Xiao, I have been a close friend of Ruyi for many years, and I actually hope that she will find a good home. Ling Xiao, you are born, good looking, talented and have first-class martial arts. It would be a good thing if we could become a good couple."
"Hey, hey, stop it, stop it, brother Xie, since when did you become a pimp?"
Xie Fu smiled awkwardly: "Ling Xiao, didn't you just say you were obsessed with her?"
"This is a fact, but a gentleman does not take away the good things from others. Thank you, Fu, who do you think I am?"
Seeing that Zhang Lingxiao's tone was somewhat accusatory, Xie Fu smiled apologetically: "It's a brother, isn't it?"
In fact, Xie Fu is quite conflicted in his heart. Of course he is possessive of Qiu Ruyi, but on the other hand, he doesn't want to be a villain who occupies a manhole and does nothing.
Zhang Lingxiao said seriously: "It is indeed your fault. Do you want to kill me?"
Xie Fu was confused: "How can I say this?"
Zhang Lingxiao was funny: "If I interfere, Qiu Ruyi will definitely be angry with me. By then, you will be fine, and I will become Boren."
Xie Fu said: "Then...that..."
Seeing Xie Fu hesitate to speak, Zhang Lingxiao smiled and said: "Are you going to pimp me again?"
"Well, I'll take you out for a walk, just to relax."
"Borthello?"
"Xuandanzhai."
Zhang Lingxiao naturally knew Xuandanzhai and asked doubtfully: "Why are we two grown men going to Xuandanzhai?"
Xie Fu smiled mysteriously: "There are many ladies there, and maybe you will fall in love with them."
Zhang Lingxiao smiled and pointed at Xie Fu: "Brother Xie, brother Xie, it seems that you are a pimp."
After quickly washing up, under the leadership of Xie Fu, the two of them came to Xuandan Zhai together. As soon as they entered the door, they heard a female voice: "Here, here."
Xie Fu looked over and saw Xiao Qingyun waving to him, and Wang Biyu also smiled in greeting.
Xie Fu walked towards the two girls, who stood up to greet them. Xiao Qingyun said carelessly: "Why haven't you come for several days?"
Xie Fu was funny: "I'm not good at dressing up, so why do I come here every day?"
Xiao Qingyun said: "You are not good at dressing up, but some people need it." She was talking about Yilan.
Xie Fu looked at Wang Biyu and said hello: "Miss Wang."
Wang Biyu saluted gracefully: "Thank you, sir."
Xie Fu raised his hand: "Ms. Wang, you and I are friends. There is no need to be formal. I will introduce a friend to you two ladies."
The two women glanced at Zhang Lingxiao. How could the elegant demeanor of the eldest son of the Zhang family be ordinary? Xiao Qingyun smiled sweetly and said: "With such a handsome face, he must be dressing up as a man to fool us."
Zhang Lingxiao was confused: "A woman disguised as a man?"
Xie Fu smiled and said: "She is joking. Let me introduce you formally. This is Xiao Qingyun, the daughter of the Governor's family."
As expected, she is a lady, Zhang Lingxiao smiled and said hello: "Miss Xiao."
Xiao Qingyun didn't know who the other party was, so she just gave him a fist.
"This is Wang Biyu, the daughter of the governor."
Wang Biyu saluted Yingying, Zhang Lingxiao said: "Master Wang Zhengwang's daughter?"
"It's my father."
Zhang Lingxiao laughed: "Miss Wang, we have met before, do you remember?"
Wang Biyu looked surprised and looked at Zhang Lingxiao: "Sir, I'm really sorry, I really can't remember."
Zhang Lingxiao reminded: "Ten years ago."
Wang Biyu looked thoughtful: "Ten years ago?"
Xiao Qingyun interjected: "Ten years ago, Biyu was only five or six years old, how could I remember you?"
Zhang Lingxiao smiled and said: "In Zhongyi Garden, thousands of flowers are red, and the little jasper is more beautiful than all the flowers."
Wang Biyu suddenly lost her composure: "Are you brother Ling Xiao?"
Zhang Lingxiao smiled and nodded: "I haven't seen you in ten years, Biyu, you are already so graceful."
Xiao Qingyun interrupted: "Biyu, who is this?"
"Zhang Lingxiao, the eldest son of Suzhou Zhongyiyuan."
Xiao Qingyun was in awe: "I said that Mr. He has such elegant demeanor, but it turns out he is Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Lingxiao smiled and said: "Isn't it a man pretending to be a woman?"
"Of course not."
Xie Fu laughed and said: "It would be better to know each other better. Let's find a place to sit down and chat."
As soon as they sat down, Wang Biyu, who had always been reserved, said enthusiastically: "Brother Ling Xiao, I was taken care of back then. This time you come to Yangzhou, you must let my little sister fulfill the friendship of a landlord."
