I heard my wife is a man
Chapter 27
Although what Meng Ruhu said was like a trivial matter, Qi Lian was still so excited that he stayed up all night, this time he got up earlier than Meng Ruhu.
"My lady..." Meng Ruhu was woken up, closed his eyes and called someone, seeing that Qi Lian didn't answer, he repeated it loudly several times, but there was no echo in the room.Opening his eyes, Qi Lian was busy trying on clothes, so he didn't notice him at all.
Meng Ruhu was a little unhappy, yawned, walked over and put his arms around Qi Lian's waist from behind and brought him into his arms, kissed him twice and asked, "Ma'am, why are you picking clothes? I think the one you chose yesterday is pretty good. "
Qi Lian opened his eyes wide as if he was startled, and held his clothes without moving. In his mind, he kept thinking of his stepmother saying that he was as timid as a mouse, and that if he was going to the city, people would throw stones at him and drive him away as a beggar. come out.
Once his father was going to take him into the city to buy rice, but what his stepmother said directly made his father change his mind.As a result, Qi Lian felt a sense of unspoken fear towards the city, but in his heart he had a faint hope that one day he would be able to enter the city.
Although he is no longer the coward who shrank his shoulders and dared not speak when he saw people, the shadow left by his stepmother is hard to erase. Qi Lian wanted to dress himself more decently, not too much self-abasement.After being in a daze for a moment, he finally came back to his senses, and asked in a low voice, "When will you come to see me, my husband?"
"Not more than an hour." Meng Ruhu said with a smile seeing Qi Lian's nervous look, but he originally planned to spend two hours to deal with things.
After hearing this, Qi Lian felt relieved, and practiced for a while, and finally chose the outfit from yesterday.After such a delay, it was already dawn, and it was the time agreed with Dr. Lu and the others.
This morning Qi Lian didn't come to cook in a hurry, so he hurried out and got into Doctor Lu's carriage.After leaving the cottage, he kept raising the curtain to look back, hoping to see Meng Ruhu.Fu Rong covered her mouth and laughed, and asked jokingly, "Ma'am, is the scenery on the road beautiful?"
"Scenery?" Qi Lian was taken aback, and when he saw the smile in Fu Rong's eyes, he immediately understood and blushed, lowered his head and said in a low voice, "It's very good, beautiful." He was always thinking about Meng Ruhu and didn't pay attention to other things at all. After Fu Rong reminded her like this, she really started to appreciate the scenery on both sides.
The carriage was neither fast nor slow, and after running for an hour, it finally entered the city. The voices in his ears suddenly became lively, and Qi Lian hurriedly closed the window.The various sounds of selling on the street and the smell of food spread into the carriage, and Qi Lian couldn't help but open a corner of the window to observe everything outside secretly.
The road on the street is flat and wide, pedestrians come and go, dressed in different styles, dazzling people.Along the way, there are shops and small stalls on both sides, selling different things, and it is more lively than Qi Lian imagined.
After walking two streets, the carriage stopped in front of a medical clinic.Doctor Lu got out of the car first, and a person inside trotted out to take Doctor Lu's medicine box, and said with a embarrassed look, "Mrs. Go and have a look."
"I see, you don't need to panic, Mrs. Zhao's illness is just a small problem, you follow my prescription to get the secondary medicine." Doctor Lu took out the prescription and handed it over in an orderly manner after listening, summoned another person to order, " There are distinguished guests coming today, you need to entertain them well, and don't be rude."
"Yes." The man responded respectfully, and when he turned his head, he saw Fu Rong bringing a beautiful woman in. He behaved extremely politely, and greeted her with a smile, "Miss Fu, this is what Doctor Lu said. Your honored guest?"
"This is Mrs. Meng, go and make a cup of tea." Fu Rong took Qi Lian to sit down, and softly introduced the situation of the medical clinic, "This is a medical clinic opened by Brother Meng for the master, and it mainly makes a living by selling medicinal materials on weekdays. Those two are long-term workers hired in the town and are in charge of all affairs in the hospital, Madam can ask them if you are interested."
After listening carefully, Qi Lian quickly waved his hands, sat stiffly, with his back straight, his big eyes carefully surveying everything in the room, occasionally meeting other people's eyes and then quickly moving away.
"Madam, please drink tea. Don't be too nervous, just as if you are on the mountain." Fu Rong saw Qi Lian's nervousness, smiled lightly to comfort her, and chatted with Qi Lian for a while before going to other things.
Qi Lian sat and looked around the house by himself, and looked outside again, sizing up the rushing crowd, gradually getting used to it.Sitting until the tea was cold, I couldn't help but walk to the door and look out, trying to find such a tall figure from the bustling street.
Meng Ruhu was talking about an hour, and it was only a cup of tea, so Qi Lian couldn't see it.Although Meng Ruhu went out later than Qi Lian and the others, but he was riding a horse, and his speed was much faster. As soon as Qi Lian entered the city with his front feet, Meng Ruhu arrived with his back feet, but he walked in a different direction, and finally stopped in front of a flower house .
As soon as Meng Ruhu arrived, a clever young servant immediately ran over to lead the horse for him, and said with a flattering smile, "Master Meng, I heard that you are married, and the bride is as beautiful as a fairy and is the best match for Master Meng. It's a joy."
Meng Ruhu knew that this was obviously flattery, so he was so happy that he took out a piece of silver from his bosom, and casually threw it into the boy's hand, "Take it to buy wine."
"Thank you, Master Meng."
Meng Ruhu got off his horse and entered the door, and walked directly through the inner passage of the flower building. People came to please him along the way. When he arrived at the room on the east side of the top floor, the bag of silver he had prepared in advance also ran out.
"Master Meng, please drink some tea. Manager Chi will come later." A girl respectfully offered a cup of tea, not daring to look at it casually, put the tea on the table and immediately retreated.
Meng Ruhu didn't drink his tea either, leaning against the window and looking in the direction of Doctor Lu's clinic.There is a distance between the two places, Meng Ruhu couldn't even see the shadow of the medical hall, he still looked outside with great interest, and couldn't help laughing when he thought that Qi Lian might appear on the nearby street.
After watching for a while, there was the sound of the door being pushed open. A man about fifty years old came in. He was dressed in gray clothes. His cheeks were thin and he looked very serious. White could be seen on the sideburns and beard. When he saw Meng Ruhu, his eyebrows Yi Zhan smiled slightly, "Master, why are you here alone, where is Young Madam?"
"It's not easy for me to bring my lady here to this place of fireworks. She is now in Doctor Lu's Medical Center. Let's go to the restaurant to have a meal after we finish our work. Then I will introduce my lady to you." Meng Ruhu turned his head and smiled and strode Going up to meet him, he pulled the man to sit down, "Uncle Chi, can you come in?"
"Thank you, young master, for your concern. Everything is fine." Chi Yong handed over the account book in his hand, and said seriously, "The situation last month was much worse than the previous two months. Less regulars are coming less often, and the worst customers are getting fewer and fewer."
"I heard that because the emperor wanted to hold a coming-of-age ceremony for the third prince, he increased the taxes outside the imperial capital, and planned to hold a grand birthday party for the third prince." Meng Ruhu said while reading the accounts, with a faint hint of light in his eyes. Disdain.
Chi Yong sighed, his stern face was full of worry, "Today, today's emperor is immoral, with levies and levies every year, and the common people suffer unspeakably. This time, for the third prince's coming-of-age ceremony, the world has suffered again."
"What can a foolish ruler who only knows how to favor traitorous ministers and evil concubines do?" Meng Ruhu sneered, before reading the ledger and throwing it aside, he picked up the teacup and drank it in one gulp before suppressing the hatred in his heart, "I received the news , Prince Huan Guomin and his son will also attend this banquet."
After hearing this, Chi Yong was surprised, frowned deeper, and said worriedly, "The third prince, mother and concubine are being favored, and his coming-of-age ceremony is so grand, I'm afraid it will be even more lively than the prince's original one. A few days ago, the prince was hunting, The horse under him was suddenly frightened. The prince fell off the horse unpreparedly, and one eye was trampled by the horse's hoof. His life was saved, but the eye could not be healed. When the master was alive, he was extremely fond of the prince, but now the prince is in a difficult situation , I'm afraid..."
The following words disappeared in a burst of sighs, and Meng Ruhu couldn't help but take a deep breath, and punched the table, "Concubine Wu Gui is nothing more than wanting to abolish the crown prince and establish her own son. Now that the crown prince is physically disabled, the position of crown prince is only I'm afraid I won't be able to keep it."
"What should we do?" Chi Yong was shocked, stood up with a pale face, stood for a while and then sat down, and said after a long time, "If the crown prince is deposed, it will be even more difficult for us to clear the lord's sins." Disaster."
"Uncle Chi, don't worry. I know it well. I will avenge my parents and restore the innocence of my parents." Meng Ruhu's eyes were burning like flames, and his whole body erupted with a frightening aura.Smiling suddenly again, he relaxed and slumped into the chair, "I've finished checking the account book, I'll take Uncle Chi to see my wife. If you see her, you will be very satisfied."
Mentioning Qi Lian, Meng Ruhu's murderous aura disappeared, and his smile became more childish.Chi Yong couldn't help but feel relieved, and stopped continuing the topic just now, and said with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, "I heard that the young lady is intelligent and sensitive, and she can remember it with a photographic memory. This ability alone is admirable. What's more, the young master sees The person in the middle must also be the dragon and phoenix among the people, so there is no reason for me to be dissatisfied."
Meng Ruhu laughed happily. Praising Qilian made him feel more comfortable than praising him. He crossed his legs and said, "I'll go to the clinic first, and Uncle Chi will come back after he finishes his work."
"Yes, young master." Chi Yong cupped his hands and sent Meng Ruhu outside the door.When Meng Ruhu's figure disappeared, the smile on his face disappeared, and he summoned the tea-serving girl from before and said, "Clean up the broken wood in the house."
The girl took a careful look inside, but found no debris, and all the tables and chairs stood upright.Even though he felt strange in his heart, he did not dare to disobey the order.As soon as he picked up the broom, there was a booming sound behind him. He turned his head and saw that the table that was still good just now was broken like tofu, and he quickly cleaned it up.
"My lady..." Meng Ruhu was woken up, closed his eyes and called someone, seeing that Qi Lian didn't answer, he repeated it loudly several times, but there was no echo in the room.Opening his eyes, Qi Lian was busy trying on clothes, so he didn't notice him at all.
