Chapter 22 Gift of the Sword
When he was sleeping at night, Su Qinghuan put on his bedding, took off his outer clothes and climbed into the quilt, muttering: "It's getting colder and colder, Heming, you can add a few more pieces of firewood."
The kang is warm and I don’t think about getting up all night.
After adding firewood, Lu Qi took off his boots naturally and lay down on the other side of the kang.
Since Su Qinghuan was frightened by the thunder, he has brought it in shame, saying that he is "I am afraid that outsiders will find out that the two are fake couples."
Fortunately, the kang was big enough and he was very regular, so Su Qinghuan gradually got used to it.
I often talk a few times at night, but I won’t be so bored.
"I used to make a set of tools and was very skillful, but unfortunately I fell into the Cheng family." Su Qinghuan felt regretful when she remembered the surgical instruments.
Lu Qi thought to himself that the Cheng family's things were not brought out for good, otherwise he would be disgusted.
However, when he thought of King Zhennan, his mood was a little complicated.
Su Qinghuan still muttered: "The King of Zhennan is here, I don't know if there will be martial law. Don't go there in vain."
"He doesn't." Lu Qi said confidently, "He has martial arts and is very strict in the military. He is never afraid of ghosts and monsters."
"That's good, you'll lose two strings of money." She still felt distressed when she remembered the cleaning fee. "Song Dashan's grandmother passed away. In a few days, she was going to go to the city to buy things. I followed the car he hired for. When I turned around, I just followed the gift. I heard from Sanhua that the Song family wanted to do a big deal and even hired monks and Taoists, alas."
She felt that Song Dashan's parents heard that he had money and would rather spend it on the funeral than let him marry Lin Sanhua.
Her sighs Lu Qi ignored her, but she refused to let her go: "Don't get involved in the funeral matters, just ask someone to take them with you."
"Why?" Su Qinghuan was puzzled.
"If I say no, it won't work." Lu Qi was domineering and domineering.
Su Qinghuan rolled her eyes, and this person became increasingly difficult to serve.
Lu Qi thought that last time she went to the rich man's house in the village to see the old lady, she had a fever and had a serious illness when she came back.
The old lady of the rich man's family was sick for a long time, and there were also a lot of monks and Taoists who drove away evil spirits in the family, so he suspected that she was hit by them and did not allow her to approach those people.
But now he has kept silent about her "identity" so as not to make her embarrassed.
I'll bear it! Anyway, if you get cured, you'll get out. Su Qinghuan gritted her teeth.
The next day, when Su Qinghuan returned from the county town, it was already dusk. Under the old willow tree at the entrance of the village, there was a dim lantern and a tall and pine-like body.
Su Qinghuan jumped out of the donkey cart and ran over quickly. While breathing into his hands that were blown cold by the wind, he complained: "It's so cold outside, why are you doing when you come out? You're not telling you that it will be too late to come back!"
Song Dashan drove over in a donkey cart and said, "You couple are so envious of others!"
Lu Qi grabbed her hand to warm her up and said in a deep voice: "Go home."
The two of them were together and had never been separated for so long. Even though the day was short and the night was long, he felt that this day was so long.
"I bought you a roast chicken, which is a time-honored brand, and it is very fragrant; this is the big meat bun from the Song family bun shop; that big bag is cotton and fabric, let's make clothes..."
"Drink a bowl of hot soup first." Lu Qi served her a bowl of pheasant soup.
The pheasant was hunted by Lu Qi, and he used his homemade bow and arrow. Although it was wooden arrows, it was enough to hunt some wild animals.
Su Qinghuan's stunning eyes made him very satisfied.
"It's so delicious." Su Qinghuan drank a bowl of hot water, and suddenly felt the coldness dissipated. "By the way, I bought you a good thing."
She jumped off the kang happily and dragged a long package out of a pile of things: "It's been taken out in cotton, so it's easy to bring it out. Open it and take a look."
She stood on the ground and looked up at him, like a child waiting for the praise, with stars flashing in her eyes.
Lu Qi opened it layer by layer, and when he touched the cold sword body, a surprise flashed across his face.
"Look, is it worth a hundred taels? I saw someone outside the pawnshop and wanted to pawn the sword. The pawnshop's guy pushed it out, sneaked and bargained to buy it."
Swords are weapons and are not allowed to be hidden privately, but the control is not strictly controlled.
"Because the King of Zhennan is coming, the investigation is tight, and the pawnshop is afraid that the government sent someone to test it, so he dare not accept it." Su Qinghuan was furious, "But I looked at him and it must be a good thing, so I bought it."
"The temptation of the ling spirit can be cut off by blowing the hair. It is a good sword worth a thousand gold." Lu Qi reached out and drew out the sword, and praised it without hesitation.
"That's good. When you leave in the future, you will have this place..."
Su Qinghuan said, and saw Lu Qi's face pulling down, and hurriedly covered her mouth.
I accidentally said what I thought.
"I mean, the sword is given to the hero..."
"I'll deal with you after dinner!" Lu Qi snorted.
Su Qinghuan smiled apologized: "I spent all the money on you..."
"You are mine!"
Fall! Can you chat happily?
Su Qinghuan pulled a chicken wing and chewed it hatefully.
Lu Qi couldn't put down his love for the sword and glanced at him when he was eating.
Su Qinghuan couldn't help laughing. Although the gift was expensive, the recipients loved it so much, and it felt worth it.
"Heming, I have to prepare some things, which should be able to heal you in three or five days." Su Qinghuan thought happily.
"I'll show you the sword when the time comes."
In front of her, I couldn't help but feel childishly showing off, wanting her to feel good.
"Okay, I can blow the flute!"
Lu Qi blushed a little, looked down at the sword, and said "Yes".
Su Qinghuan talked about his experiences in the county and sighed: "The King of Zhennan actually lived there. I heard that the prince was sick because he was not accustomed to the local conditions. The county magistrate called all the doctors in the county for diagnosis and treatment. When I went to buy medicine, I left several pharmacies, and the doctors in the hall were not there."
Lu Qi felt aroused, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
Su Qinghuan continued to talk: "I dare not practice medicine, just because I am afraid of encountering such a bully."
The powerful cannot afford to be guilty of the local snake, but it is all kinds of misery.
"I don't expect to be successful. I just need to treat people around me for headaches and fever, just survive." She comforted herself. "By the way, when we came back today, we saw several people passing by, almost shocking our little donkey, and it seemed to be heading towards the salt field..."
In fact, she told him about everything she saw and heard along the way.
Perhaps, he can filter out the information he wants.
She slept soundly at night, but Lu Qi couldn't sleep all night.
"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"
It was still dawn, and the door of Su Qinghuan's house was knocked heavily.
"Who?" Su Qinghuan yawned and rubbed her sleepy eyes.
Lu Qi pressed her down and said, "Get up and put on your clothes, I'll open the door."
