Being watched by the male lead and his brother

After returning to Ruan's house, Ruan Zhu made a special effort to show up at Ruan Qingque's place, which can be regarded as expressing his willingness to be obedient.

He didn't have much contact with the Fang family's affairs, and he didn't know the specific cooperation between the Ruan family and the Fang family. The only thing he could do was to wait for the news, listen to Ruan Qingque's words, and don't go out to cause trouble.

It's just that Ruan Zhu couldn't remember the details of what happened that night, and there were only vague images in his mind, plus Su Sheng said it again, so he focused on the image of him being carried back to the Su residence by Su Yanqing superior.

So that as long as he started to recall the events of that night, the first image of Su Yanqing hugging him must appear first, so that he didn't have the time to think about what else was there afterwards, and gradually gave up over time.

a few days later.

Ruan Zhu got the news and went to the main courtyard in a hurry, and before he entered the door, he heard crying voices from inside, which should be the concubines of Ruan's father, so he would inevitably think of Qin Sufang, and he hesitated to enter the door immediately .

And just when he was hesitating, an angry voice came from inside, "Shut up! What does it sound like crying, dad is still fine!"

Hearing this, Ruan Zhu was a little confused, what happened to Ruan's father?

He immediately stepped into the door, quickly walked to Ruan Qingque's side, looked at the position of the bed curtain through the screen, and could vaguely see someone inside, and asked quickly: "Sister, what's going on?"

Ruan Qingque pulled his cuffs and asked people to sit down first, but he didn't respond to Ruan Zhu immediately, but said to the few people who were still sobbing softly: "Get out of here, don't disturb Dad here clean."

Qin Sufang has always been the most courageous, and she didn't panic after hearing this, she said confidently: "What is the young miss talking about, my sisters and I are just worried about the master, the sisters are all the master's bedside people, and we are not the same as the master. Husband and wife are deeply in love!"

"Furthermore, it's inconvenient for the master to lie on the bed and the eldest lady to wait by the side, isn't it?"

Ruan Zhu immediately felt that Ruan Qingque was angry. She lowered the corners of her mouth and looked at the youngest concubine with a half-smile, silent as if she was thinking seriously about what the other party said.

After a while, the corners of his mouth moved and he said in a low voice: "Aunt Qin's words are not bad, but I'm not a place to be reasonable here. If Aunt Qin doesn't want to leave, then I can only ask Aunt Qin to leave."

As she said this, the people waiting at the side immediately took a step forward, the meaning was self-evident.

Qin Sufang's complexion changed, she glanced at the screen, and found that there was still no movement inside, she gritted her teeth and said, "Miss' words are too hurtful, but don't forget, you will get married one day."

Not to mention Ruan Qingque, even Ruan Zhu felt angry. Isn't this just stabbing Ruan Qingque's sore spot?

"It's not your turn to worry about this matter." Ruan Qingque winked at the people on the side, and immediately someone stepped forward and invited these aunts out, and this time it was finally clean.

Facing this scene, Ruan Zhu couldn't help being a little nervous, and asked in a low voice, "Sister, what's going on with Dad?" This made him unprepared at all.

Ruan Qingque took a sip of tea, and said in a deep voice: "Father is getting old, and he hurt his bones earlier, it's just some old problems, don't worry too much, I just called you here today because I think you have grown up, It's not the same as before."

The word "not the same" made Ruan Zhu's heart tense. What he fears most now is hearing such words, as if his identity is seen through by others, and he is full of torment.

"Sister, what do you mean?" He knew that Ruan Qingque would never say anything for no reason, so he asked what to say next.

Sure enough, when Ruan Qingque saw Ruan Zhu asking directly, he didn't hide his intentions, and said bluntly: "You heard it just now, no matter how capable I am, I want to get married. No matter how capable a woman is after getting married, she will Being suspected..."

"Sister, it's not like this!" Ruan Zhu couldn't help interrupting Ruan Qingque, but when he met Ruan Qingque's gaze, he couldn't say anything, so he could only murmur: "Ah! Miss, please continue."

Seeing this, Ruan Qingque's eyes softened a lot, "Sister Ai doesn't want you to do something important, but I just think you should learn to do some business, so that Dad's mood will be better, doesn't Azhu want to help Auntie? ? Sister is really tired by herself."

Her words made Ruan Zhu feel guilty, thinking that he was dazzled by the previous situation, and he didn't even think about helping the other party, so he immediately realized: "It's my fault, of course I want to help sister, just let me do it. I really can't do anything big, I really want to help sister."

He repeatedly emphasized that he didn't want Ruan Qingque to give up because of Qin Sufang's words. Whoever said that a woman can't take care of the business after getting married, but he felt that a woman as powerful as Ruan Qingque would be more interested.

However, Ruan Qingque's marriage was temporarily shelved because of him and Fang Zhixing, and I don't know what Ruan Qingque was thinking.

Just as he was thinking, the people inside came out. As soon as Ruan Zhu raised his head, he looked at the bearded old man with cloudy eyes. Just by looking at him, he could tell that the doctor had a lot of experience, and there was a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose. , when he came out, the apprentice on the side kept supporting him, and didn't dare to let go.

Ruan Qingque got up quickly and helped him to sit down, "Doctor Ma, how is my father? Is it still the old problem?"

Seeing this, Ruan Zhu also stood up, not daring to be slighted.

Doctor Ma stroked his beard, shook his head and said, "This time it's much more serious than before. In a word, don't work too hard, pay attention to diet and rest, and take decoction every day."

The apprentice at the side took out the prepared pen and paper, and Dr. Ma immediately wrote several pages of prescriptions eloquently. He picked it up, looked at it, and sighed: "If it becomes serious in the future, please ask the eldest lady to find another high school."

Ruan Zhu nodded. The other party was indeed a bit older, and it would probably be too much to go back and forth like this.

However, Ruan Qingque held back and said: "Grandpa Ma, besides your Qianming Town, where is there any good doctor! Please save my father!"

Dr. Ma put down the prescription calmly, and said with emotion: "Naturally, it is a Western hospital, and Qianming Town is not just Qianming Town, it is time to come, the doctors are benevolent, don't be too stubborn. "

After he finished speaking, the apprentice beside him supported him and began to walk outside. Naturally, Ruan Qingque couldn't stop him, and could only watch him leave.

Ruan Zhu didn't ask until he could no longer see anyone, "Sister, does father really hate new things so much? He doesn't even want to go to the hospital?"

Ruan Qingque picked up the prescription and looked at it, sighing softly, "Father has such a stubborn temper, but it's not unreasonable to meet you with such a stubborn temper, and it will be up to you when the time comes."

Ruan Zhu didn't expect that he had been arranged clearly, but he thought it was nothing, but did things really go so smoothly?

He thought for a while, then stood on tiptoe and glanced behind the screen, only to see Father Ruan with his eyes closed, not sure if he was resting or asleep, and was about to take another step forward, but was dragged out by Ruan Qingque .

"Father needs to rest, so don't disturb him." Ruan Qingque reached out and tapped Ruan Zhu's head, and then said with a smile, "Didn't you say you want to help me? Why don't you start now."

Ruan Zhu subconsciously frowned, but had no choice but to bite the bullet and nod. Naturally, what he had said had to be accepted.

Inside the study.

A large stack of ledgers was placed on the table, and Ruan Zhu was sitting in front of the table, with Ah Hui waiting on one side and Li Guanshi called by Ruan Qingque on the other.

"Young master, these are the account books over the years, which record the entry and exit in detail, you have to read carefully." Li Guanshi looked young, less than forty, wearing a coat and wearing Buddhist beads, with a peaceful face , see people have a three-point smile.

Generally speaking, in Ruan Zhu's heart, this person is very good at doing business at first glance.

"Guard Li, there are so many ledgers, can we allow a few more days?" He stretched out his fingers and counted, at least there must be books, right?

However, the other party seemed to have expected him to say this, and nodded generously, "Of course, the young master must have something that he doesn't understand when he first comes into contact with these. Well, at least I have to give the young master a whole day."

All day long!

Ruan Zhu immediately wrinkled his face, and he couldn't refuse when Ruan Qingque was mentioned, so he could only look at Li Guanshi with a smirk on his face, and then whispered something, it was even tighter than when the final exam was due , at least he will set aside a week for himself, this is a day!

Seeing that Ruan Zhu was speechless, Manager Li smiled lightly and said, "Young master, just relax and read it. It's not that you have to write down all these, but you just want to know the general idea."

He found a chair and sat down. Ruan Zhu was not idle when he was reading the account book, as if he wanted to find some detailed words in the pile of books.

Ruan Zhu didn't pay attention to it at first, and just looked at his account book, and it went straight into the night.

After Guanshi Li left, Ruan Zhu sat on the chair completely, his mind was full of the contents of the ledger, most of which were complicated records. I have to say that Guanshi Li is really careful, he divided the ledger into two parts. One type is simple and clear at first glance, and the other type is more detailed. As long as it is a shop, even if there is only one or two drinks, it is written clearly.

Seeing Ruan Zhu spread out, Ah Hui stood a little hesitantly not far away, but Ruan Zhu turned his head to see him and asked, "What's the matter? Is sister here?"

Now that Ruan Zhu asked, Ah Hui could only bite the bullet and pass the letter in his hand, "This is a letter sent by Mr. Lin."

Su Qiu?

Ruan Zhu regained his energy in an instant, thinking it was some kind of distress letter, so he quickly opened it to check.

It's just that the content inside made Ruan Zhu's face complicated. If he had to say it, it could be regarded as a distress letter, but it was different from the distress he imagined. He thought it was someone from the Fang family who disturbed Lin Suqiu. In the letter, it turned into this person named Dong Wujiu.

And it's not a threat of violence, it's Lin Suqiu's romantic debt...

Ruan Zhu folded the letter again, looked up at Ah Hui and asked, "Do you know what Dongwujiu is?"

He was asking about this person, but Ah Hui thought it was something else, and immediately replied: "Winter [-]th is a solar term, after Winter [-]th, spring will not be far away."

It was a good season, but this was not what Ruan Zhu wanted at all, so he had to ask again: "It's not this one, it's a man named Dong Wujiu."

After asking himself, he felt a little strange, so he opened the letter again and read it. This person was really called Dong Wujiu.

But let's not talk about whether there is a surname Dong, even if there is such a surname, who would be so big-hearted to name a child Dong Wujiu!

However, Ah Hui unexpectedly clapped his hands and said, "The young master is asking about Dong Wujiu of the Guanyin Temple in the north?"

Ruan Zhu's face was full of surprise, did someone really call him that name?

But the most important thing now is to find out who this person is. Lin Suqiu even wrote a distress letter because of how he provoked him. Hearing that this Guanyin Temple is not a powerful person, when did Lin Suqiu be so soft and deceitful.

Ah Hui also asked curiously: "Why did the young master suddenly ask about Dong Wujiu? Could it be because of the master's illness..."

"What are you talking about? Is he still a doctor?" Ruan Zhu became interested. Since he has no power or power, it must be because of other reasons, but didn't Ruan Qingque say that the most powerful doctor nearby is Doctor Ma?

"Dong Wujiu can be regarded as a doctor. The main reason is that his mother is the Goddess Bei! That's really powerful. Anyone who has a little money has to find Goddess Bei to do things! In the past, the poor would find them if they had no money for medical treatment. She, treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor, can survive some people."

Ah Hui said this in a flat tone, but to Ruan Zhu's ears, it was the transition of an era.

Poverty is the most serious disease, not only the feudal superstition of the older generation, but also the attitude of having a narrow escape.

"Then winter five or nine..." Ruan Zhu suddenly couldn't continue asking. If he is not a powerful person, nor a wicked person, he is even considered a good person, so what else can he do? Could it be that the other party is Prodigal son?

Ah Hui didn't know what was going on in Ruan Zhu's mind, and continued: "Dong Wujiu is a cheerful person. He has a great reputation in the north. He can not only cure diseases but also go into the water. He can help the sorceress to do things. He also knows some foreign things. He has all the skills! He said he would guard his mother and guard the Guanyin Temple. In the past, some rich lords invited him to work in the mansion, but they were all rejected."

"Master, if you want to ask him for help, the possibility is relatively low, but we can cooperate for a short time."

Ruan Zhu hesitated to speak, and finally swallowed what he wanted to say. After Ah Hui said this, he actually felt that Dong Wujiu was still a person worthy of entrustment, but he sounded a little poor.

But Lin Suqiu is rich!

And if he was really disgusted that much, there was no need to write him a distress letter, he was clearly being soft-hearted!

In this way, he might as well choose to eat melons.

Because Lin Suqiu's matter was delayed, Ruan Zhu felt that he was much more tired before. After eating, he took the initiative to stay and start to read the account book. After all, he read it earlier and finished the calculation earlier. What kind of person is Dong Wujiu?

At night, Ruan Zhu fell into a chaotic dream.

The sky was dark, the sound of birds chirping came from everywhere, the wind blew the branches and swayed, suddenly a cry came out of nowhere, completely breaking the calm, more and more people joined in, the sound of crying made Ruan Zhu uncomfortable Close your ears and keep running forward.

However, no matter how fast he ran, the crying sound followed him like a shadow, as if it was in his ears. Over time, he chose to give up and ran towards the crying position instead.

The corridor was very long, but Ruan Zhu didn't give up, he ran towards that position desperately, until a white cloth appeared in front of his eyes, and the yellow paper was scattered in the air, and it fell everywhere.

In the lobby is the obvious coffin, and the one kneeling below is Su Sheng.

The scene in front of him made Ruan Zhu stunned, he didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment, he was shocked by the sudden scene, until Su Sheng stood up and met his gaze.

"Azhu, my brother is dead."

wrong!Su Yanqing will not die!

With a scream, the people outside rushed in, stretched out their hands to hold down the person who was muttering on the bed, and shouted anxiously: "Master! Master, wake up!"

The anxious shouting didn't have much effect, the person beside the bed could only grab Ruan Zhu's hand with gritted teeth and press it down. The severe pain brought the person in the nightmare back to reality.

Ruan Zhu opened his eyes and looked at everything in front of him with fear, his body was covered in cold sweat from being frightened.

"Master, don't be afraid, it's just a dream, it's all fake." Ah Hui comforted the other party softly, then wiped off the sweat from Ruan Zhu's forehead and neck with a handkerchief, he was a little worried when he saw no response, "Master, sit down first After a while, Ah will go back and pour you a glass of water."

Seeing that Ruan Zhu didn't refuse, he immediately got up and went outside, walked out of the room to greet the night watchman outside, and asked someone to tell the eldest lady about Ruan Zhu's situation, and then went back to pour the warm water he had prepared and walked to Ruan Zhu's side.

Ruan Zhu who was on the bed blinked, as if there was still a picture of yellow paper in front of him, his face was gradually painful where he was covering his chest, his heart hurt so much.

After Ah Hui fed the water to Ruan Zhu, he didn't leave again, fearing that Ruan Zhu would greet him at any time.

However, Ruan Zhu just kept silent, and only leaned softly on the pillow after the pain in his heart passed, breathing in small mouthfuls, obviously in a state of self-regulation, his eyes were looking straight at a part of the bed curtain, half-hearted No intention of moving away.

After a while, Ruan Qingque rushed over, Ah Hui got up and walked out, and told Ruan Zhu's situation.

Ruan Qingque showed a remorseful look, thinking that maybe he pushed Ruan Zhu too hard, which made people have nightmares. Ruan Zhu has not been in good health since he was a child, which is why he never started a business.

Looking better these days, she became more courageous.

With guilt, Ruan Qingque went to Ruan Zhu's side, and asked softly, "Is Ah Zhu feeling uncomfortable? Tell Elder Sister, okay? As long as it is what Ah Zhu wants, Elder Sister will promise you anything."

Ruan Zhu shifted his gaze to Ruan Qingque. He had actually recovered from his stress. When he just woke up, he was really uncomfortable. The scene in the dream was too cruel for him, and he was sweating coldly because of the pain. But he also quickly realized that it was just a dream.

Just as soon as he closed his eyes, the scene from the previous dream would appear, so he didn't feel sleepy at all.

But he didn't expect that Ah Hui had someone invite Ruan Qingque, and it was a bit embarrassing, because Ruan Qingque spoiled him too much.

But since Ruan Qingque said so, Ruan Zhu decided to plan: "Sister, I dreamed of something unclean, why don't you ask someone to help me see it?"

Ruan Qingque's expression changed, he looked Ruan Zhu up and down, stretched out his hand and touched Ruan Zhu's forehead, and said with a light smile, "Who are you listening to? You're overthinking, and when the sun rises, sister will cook it for you." I’ll drink some calming soup for you and you’ll be fine.”

Hearing this, Ruan Zhu didn't have much reaction. After all, his request was a bit strange, so he chose to give up, nodded and said softly: "Okay, then listen to sister."

After saying this, he lay down and said, "Sister, I'd better go back, I'm fine, it's good that I have Ah Hui to accompany me."

Ruan Zhu was telling the truth, but the series of reactions in Ruan Qingque's eyes changed, and his eyes were full of worry.

But in the end, he didn't ask too much, but asked Ah Hui to tell what happened today after going out.

When she heard that it was related to Dong Wujiu, Ruan Qingque was very angry and funny. She even suspected that Ruan Zhu thought too much about Dong Wujiu, so that she had nightmares at night.

"Okay, you go and ask someone to invite Dong Wujiu to come, and get some soothing sachets from there by the way." Unexpectedly, when she turned around, she looked back as if thinking of something, looked at Ah Hui and said: "In the future, give me less Ah Zhu said these things, otherwise I would ask you!"

Ah Hui hunched over and kept nodding, feeling very annoyed in his heart, he didn't expect this to happen.

After the people left, Ah Hui hurriedly asked someone to invite Dong Wujiu, and then returned to the room to accompany Ruan Zhu every step of the way.

As the sky gradually brightened, Ruan Zhu still leaned on the bed sleepily and refused to get up. He just asked the time, and he still remembered when Li Guanshi came to guard him to read the account book.

Although he wanted to see Su Yanqing very much, he finally endured it. He can't do anything now, and rushing to Su's mansion recklessly may cause Su Yanqing trouble, not to mention that now he is still Ruan Zhu. Do your own thing.

All he had to do was to wait, to wait for the right moment.

Just as he was thinking, there was a movement outside the door, Ruan Zhu thought it was Guanshi Li who came, and said in a panic: "What time is it, why is Guanshi Li here!"

Ah Hui understood, and comforted Ruan Zhu, "Don't worry, young master, it should be winter five or nine."

"Dong Wujiu?" Ruan Zhu was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Ruan Qingque had invited someone to come here. He couldn't laugh or cry for a moment, and asked, "Sister, did you ask Dong Wujiu to exorcise me?"

"Miss asked Dong Wujiu to bring some soothing sachets and talk to the young master by the way." Ah Hui replied, then turned around and went out to meet him.

Ruan Zhu pursed his lips and smiled lightly. What does it mean to talk with him? It's clear that someone made a special trip to satisfy his curiosity.

He moved lazily and just leaned there waiting for the legendary Dong Wujiu, his eyes gradually became more expectant, after all, he was a character that even gave Lin Suqiu a headache, but Ruan Zhu swallowed a little timidly when he saw it. Swallow.

I saw a tall figure outside the screen, with a thick and magnetic voice when he opened his mouth, "Master Ruan is good, I'm going in next winter on May or September."

He was just saying hello, speaking in a sloppy tone, and just as he finished speaking, he crossed the screen and approached, the tall figure directly enveloped Ruan Zhu, he raised his hand to touch the carvings on the top of the big carved bed, as if Xiaofei smiled and said, "Master Ruan really enjoys this carving."

The author says:

Dong Wujiu: Oh, the boy is really rich.
