Feng Jue was lost, and the Xiao family sent out people to look for it with great fanfare. Although they did not say clearly whether they were looking for people or things, everyone in the whole city was in danger because of this incident. People all over the city were talking about whether the government government should
Are you arresting someone or looking for something?
Everyone in the restaurants was talking about this matter, and Li Nian and the others were no exception.
"Dad, do you think something happened to the eldest sister?" Li Qingyan, a little kid who was not even ten years old, said gloomily: "Is something going to happen to the eldest sister?"
Li Nian patted his son on the head and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Your eldest sister is a lucky person. She will be fine. Besides, the Xiao family doesn't have the courage." He originally wanted to say a few more words, but there was only one audience, so he stopped.
After thinking about it, he said, "Okay, you can go back and review your homework. Don't wait for your eldest sister to come back and find out that you have declined in your studies. She will beat you then, and I won't stop you."
The father and son had a small agreement. Since they were away from home, they had to be more careful. Especially the formulas left by Li Man'er were easily coveted by others, so they agreed that memorizing the formulas was just to review their homework and avoid unnecessary trouble.
Trouble.
"Who are you scaring?" Li Qingyan refused to admit it, but he still went back to the room to review the formulas. In fact, he had already memorized the essence of the formulas left by Li Man'er, and he could understand some of the sentences.
There was a corresponding meaning, but he always remembered Li Man'er's words and did not dare to try secretly, so he was obedient.
As soon as Li Qingyan left, Li Nian called a few trusted personal guards over.
"There are so many people from the government office spreading out all over the streets. There must be something big going on. We can't just wait here, the news will fall from the sky? You guys go out and find out. Safety first, don't alert others.
.After two hours, regardless of whether we have gained something or not, we will all come back here to rendezvous."
Naturally, the others had no objection, so they put on a little disguise, left the restaurant, and went about their own business.
Li Nian sighed helplessly and prayed secretly, hoping that his niece would be safe.
I don't know how happy Li Man'er was in the government office.
In order to find Feng Jue, Xiao Qiniang had no time to talk to her, so the two women were ordered around by her. One moment, she asked the kitchen to steam an egg custard for her, another moment, she had someone fetch her water to take a bath, and she also wrote an order for someone to go out to buy medicinal materials.
, after I bought it, I also found a set of tools for preparing medicinal materials. I was very busy slicing, pounding and grinding the medicine.
The most annoying thing is that Li Maner also built a mud stove in the courtyard, made a pot and sat on the stove to boil medicine. She was happy, but everyone in the small courtyard suffered along with her, and was tortured by all kinds of things every day.
Not only is the noise annoying, but I also have to endure the unpleasant smell of medicine.
I don’t know what Li Man’er was thinking, but he kept asking his sweet lady where Feng Jue was for several days.
"He? The ghost doctor has a distinguished status, so how can a slave be able to inquire about it?"
"That's right." Li Man'er gathered up the big cloak on her body and flapped the small fan in her hand very happily. The fragrance of the medicine was so strong that she almost vomited.
She now feels that her whole body is filled with the smell of medicine, and even her hair is bitter.
"The seven-day appointment is coming soon, but this man named Feng ran away. He knew that he was going to lose, so he stayed behind closed doors and acted like a coward."
After hearing what she said, Jiao Niang immediately said: "Miss Li, I heard that Doctor Feng came to see you that day? What did you two say in the room?"
Liu Ya walked over, raised her hand and hit her mouth, so that the girl's face suddenly became swollen.
She covered her face, with a look of horror and disbelief in her eyes, "I am a slave, but I am a slave of the Xiao family. Even if the eldest girl is a guest and wants to punish me, there is no reason for you, a slave, to do it."
They are both servants, who is nobler than the other? Why do you beat me?
"Who do you think you are? You dare to test our eldest daughter's mouth?" Liu Ya has been on the battlefield. She usually hides her sharp edge like a black stone, but as long as she wants, she can turn it into a black stone anytime and anywhere.
The unsheathed sword.
Seeing Liu Ya like this, Jiao Niang was so frightened that her heart trembled again and again. She covered her face and did not dare to speak any more.
"Okay, you go down."
Jiao Niang was about to run away, but suddenly she heard Li Man'er say again: "Jiao Niang, does this medicine smell good?"
Jiao Niang shook her head and nodded again, not daring to speak anyway.
"This medicine can heal people, but it can also harm people. If you can't control your mouth anymore, next time this medicine will not only smell bad."
Jiao Niang took two steps back, entered the house without looking back, hid in the Bisha cupboard and never came out.
"It's boring." Li Man'er threw away the small cattail leaf fan in his hand and asked Liu Ya to take a bowl and pour out the medicine.
This is Li Shu's medicine. Li Man'er was afraid of being tampered with, so he just boiled it.
Liu Ya quickly brought a bowl and chopsticks, and Li Maner used chopsticks to push the medicine residue to the side. While pouring the medicine, he whispered, "This medicine is precious, not a drop can be wasted."
As expected, not even a drop was left, so Liu Ya took it in.
Liu Ya gave the medicine directly to Jiao Niang, indicating that she could go and give the medicine to Mr. Hou. No matter how reluctant Jiao Niang was, she had no choice but to take it.
Li Maner poured the medicine dregs and washed the pot by himself. It was not too cold even in the winter, and finally he carried the medicine jar into the house.
She put the medicine jar on the window sill and went to get her herbs. The two guards had been secretly watching her. They were a little annoyed, but they didn't see her doing anything out of the ordinary.
Every day is just tinkering with medicine, or taking care of my little girl. She can eat and sleep, but there's nothing special about it.
It is somewhat far-fetched to say that Feng Jue's disappearance is related to her.
Li Maner lay down on the small couch and kept wondering in her heart, who carved the words on the medicine pot? The idea was really clever, and she was not afraid of being discovered.
However, we don’t know yet whether this person is an enemy or a friend, we have to wait a little longer.
The next day, when Li Man'er was boiling medicine, he accidentally broke the medicine pot. He had no choice but to have someone choose a new one.
This time, there was no word in the pot.
While Li Man'er was washing the pot, he thought to himself that the Xiao family would definitely be worried if the pot was bought from outside. Everything delivered to him would be inspected, and this pot must also be inspected.
How did the words in the pot escape detection?
The great writer Lu once said that there is no way in the world...
Therefore, the words in the pot did not exist from the beginning, or in other words, its existence made those people turn a blind eye.
Medicinal decoction.
The color of the words is the same as that of the medicinal soup. It must be that the words in the pot are revealed during the process of cooking the medicine.
Li Man'er couldn't wait to pick up the new pot and started preparing and cooking medicine again.
The two guards thought she was crazy.
"I guess Lord Marquis's illness is not easy to cure, otherwise why would he have bothered so much."
"That's right, I think she might be testing the medicine on her own father?"
The other one was very frightened, "How did you say this?"
"A dead horse should be treated as a living horse doctor."
