"To hide my identity!" Mingruo answered seriously.
"..." Although this reason is far-fetched, it cannot be refuted. Si Haochen was depressed and had nowhere to vent.
Ming Ruo filled a bowl of chicken soup and fed it to Si Haochen. Si Haochen was still angry and wanted to say not to drink it. But he saw Ming Ruo simmering it for a long time and knew that a lot of thought goes into this soup and meal.
can do it well.
Si Haochen still had a sword wound on his right shoulder. He couldn't hold the spoon, so he took the bowl and finished it after a few mouthfuls.
Mingruo was dumbfounded: "It's hot... oh... it's hot..."
It was indeed hot, but Si Haochen kept a straight face and pretended to be fine.
"Isn't it hot?" Mingruo took the empty bowl, but it was still hot...
Mingruo was a little worried. Could it be that Si Haochen fell off the cliff and broke his nerve?
"Don't you like that earring very much? Why did you pawn it?" Si Haochen remembered what Li Dahai said just now that the earring was pawned for two taels of silver.
"But, earrings can't be eaten as food." Mingruo spread his hands helplessly.
Si Haochen touched his waist and remembered that he was only wearing a middle coat: "Where are my clothes."
"Here." Mingruo brought over the brocade robe that Si Haochen wore before.
This brocade robe had been soaked in river water before it was soaked. Ming Ruo cleaned it, but it lost the luster of the brocade and looked gray. The robe also held a long soft sword, a jade belt, and two jade pendants - one was a gift from Ming Ruo.
The other piece is a colorful Tuanyun Dragon Pei.
Si Haochen picked out the piece of dragon pendant and threw it to Mingruo: "If you pawn this, redeem the earrings."
"I think this is more appropriate." Ming Ruo took the piece she gave to Si Haochen.
Si Haochen snatched the jade pendant directly from Mingruo's hand: "This won't work."
"This dragon pendant is very valuable at first glance. If you go out, it will cause trouble." Mingruo looked at the dragon pendant. It was crystal clear and shiny. Although he didn't know what material it was made of, anyone with a discerning eye would know it was worth a lot.
"..." I was criticized for the second time today, and I still couldn't refute it. This flowing light jade is extremely rare, and there are not many in the palace. It is indeed easy to attract people to investigate.
In fact, Mingruo's medical system still had 500,000 taels of silver notes obtained from selling Yiling Pills. They were all large amounts of 10,000 taels each, and Mingruo did not dare to use them because he was afraid of causing trouble.
"I will wear gold hairpins, gold earrings, and gold bracelets when I go out from now on." Ming Ruo learned from the painful experience, "This way, if anything happens, I can get more money."
"Heh." Si Haochen chuckled, "Okay."
The weather in the afternoon was very good, and the warm sunshine filtered into the house through the bamboo curtains on the window. Mingruo sat there in a daze, his consciousness entering the space of the medicine field, searching for the target - although he did not intend to redeem the earrings.
But I still need some money on hand. Both I and Si Haochen need to add replacement clothes, and their winter clothes have been soaked in water and are not as warm as before...
Hey, Mingruo decided to make good use of the storage function of the space in the future, and prepare all the food and clothing. The bamboo house also needs to be renovated, with beds and quilts, tables, chairs and benches, clothes and makeup...arranged!
Mingruo walked around the medicine field and selected the least valuable Polygonum multiflorum from a large area of rare medicinal materials. It was about fifty years old - that was it. Mingruo found that the space had the function of preserving freshness. No matter what it was, he picked it and put it away.
Once there, you can always keep it fresh.
Mingruo dug out Polygonum multiflorum without cleaning the soil on the surface, leaving it in its original state. In a few days, she would go to the town in person, and it would be inconvenient for someone to bring her clothes back.
"Miss Ming." Li Dahai came over with Aunt Li on his back and a bamboo basket in his hand, which contained radishes, a handful of vegetables, and a few eggs.
Mingruo stood up and opened the door: "Please come in."
Li Dahai put the bamboo basket on the table: "My mother took your medicine and is no longer dizzy today. She picked these vegetables for you."
"Thank you, ma'am." Mingruo asked with a smile, "Does your vegetable garden still have vegetables in winter?"
"The terrain of our village is good, and it is not too cold in winter." Li Dahai said, "Cover some straw mats at night so that the vegetables will not freeze to death."
"Oh." Mingruo nodded.
"The mountain behind our Osmanthus Village is the only mountain near the imperial capital where tea trees can be grown." Li Dahai said proudly.
Mingruo checked Aunt Li's pulse and then started acupuncture. After the treatment, the mother and son left. Mingruo started to finish cooking - cold shredded radish, vegetable and egg drop porridge.
Xiaobai came back from the mountains with a fat gray rabbit in his mouth. He put the rabbit at Mingruo's feet, then raised his head and looked at Mingruo with a pair of sea-blue tiger eyes.
"We, Xiaobai, are back from work." Mingruo rubbed his tiger head.
Xiaobai purred a few times as a response. In order to keep it fresh, Mingruo threw the rabbit into the space and planned to deal with it tomorrow.
Although the little white cat turned into a big white tiger, Si Haochen still didn't like it. Mingruo fed Si Haochen some porridge, but Si Haochen stared at Xiaobai who buried the entire tiger's head in the rice bowl.
"It's a tiger, why does it drink porridge?" Si Haochen couldn't help complaining.
"Of course a family should eat together." Mingruo also couldn't figure out why this person and one tiger were not in the same position.
"Is this king the same family as him?" Si Haochen glared at Mingruo, as if if Mingruo dared to nod, he would immediately get angry.
"That's right." Unfortunately, Mingruo's desire for survival is often not online, "Now it's Xiaobai who hunts to support the family."
"..." It was the third time today that he was speechless. His Royal Highness, Prince Yun, was not as aggrieved as usual. Moreover, he had a hunch that if Xiaobai was not recognized as a family, this girl would probably separate her from Baihu.
Become a family.
Then... I am the passerby they 'picked up'. "Ahem, how about giving Young Master Xiaobai a separate courtyard when he returns home?"
"Okay." Mingruo nodded, "However, Mr. Bai... sounds like a silly son of a landlord, so Mr. Bai sounds better."
"..." Seeing Mingruo's serious face, Si Haochen felt that he didn't choke on the porridge because he had good concentration, "It's up to you."
Two days later, Li Dahai cooked the charcoal cart and went to the town to sell it. Ming wanted to take the charcoal cart to the town. Early in the morning, Ming Ruo cooked porridge. He and Si Haochen had breakfast together and put the charcoal cart into the town.
Put the Polygonum multiflorum into the backpack.
Xiaobai followed him to the door, but Mingruo locked him in the door: "You are looking after the house today."
Si Haochen couldn't help but frown: "Let it follow you."
"No need." He had the space of Yan Ling Bracelet by his side, and now Si Haochen was the one who needed protection.
"In a small town like this, there will be traffickers who specialize in catching weak little girls like you." Si Haochen threatened Mingruo.
Ming Ruo made a face at Si Haochen: "In a mountain like this, there may be female bandits who specialize in snatching handsome young men like you to be the village's prime minister!"
"Cough." Si Haochen felt that he was so angry that he was about to vomit blood.
