In Zhuxiang Yayuan, Xu Rongrong sneezed three times in a row.

Aunt Xiao, who was feeding rabbits next to her, shouted three times: "Nothing is taboo!"

After saying that, she told Jixiang to go to the kitchen to finish cooking the ginger soup.

Seeing this, Xu Rongrong quickly called out to them: "No, it's just that my nose is itchy."

Wen Yao on the side heard this and laughed: "Is it possible that someone is scolding the young lady?"

Luo Shu threw a few pieces of hay to the rabbit, and then said: "Who knows? Maybe it's the Marquis. After all, the lady has to go to the clothing store to buy even the hippa. How sad the Marquis would be if he knew about it."

"Yes! If I were the Marquis, my heart would be broken." Wen Yao followed.

Xu Rongrong stood under the eaves of the corridor, watching them talking enthusiastically to each other. She was angry and funny, and deliberately said loudly: "That makes sense. It seems that I am going to find some silver needles and embroidery thread to make this love The mouth where you gossip must be sewn shut."

Wen Yao: "..."

Luo Shu: "..."

Even Ji Xiang and Ruyi on the side covered their mouths and snickered.

Aunt Xiao smiled and said, "The county chief is willing to bear it. I will go and get the sewing basket right now."

Wen Yao immediately jumped up when he heard this: "Aunt Xiao actually has the time to help. The county boss has said that the rabbits are not allowed to be fed, and they must find them by themselves... Auntie, you can't wait to hand it to their mouths."

"As much as the county owner likes to be troubled, the rabbits we raise are cared for every day, so why do we have to look for food by ourselves like wild rabbits? Is it possible that the county owner will let them go in the future?" Aunt Xiao said with a smile.

Xu Rongrong tilted her head: "It's just fun to watch, but you feel sorry for them."

In the afternoon at Zhuxiang Yayuan, this is the most leisurely time, and it even made people feel a little uncomfortable for a while.

Aunt Xiao shook the empty food box and asked casually: "Master Hou seems to have not been here for some days."

"It's true that I haven't seen the Marquis for seven or eight days." Luo Shu said thoughtfully, "It shouldn't be..."

"Could it be that the Marquis is out of Beijing on business?"

Luo Shu shook his head: "That shouldn't be the case. In the past, the Marquis would come to tell the lady in advance even when he was out on business in Beijing, and he would never leave without saying goodbye. Could it be that the Marquis is ill?"

After speaking, she glanced at her young lady.

Sure enough, there was a moment of sluggishness on Xu Rongrong's face.

It is true that she has not seen Mu Rong for some days. Life in Zhuxiang Yayuan is leisurely and quiet. Since she recovered, she has been drinking tea and reading in the courtyard every day, looking through her books, and occasionally going out for a walk.

Pretending to be a guest, he went to several shops she owned under the name "Tao Gong" to see how they were doing.

It's just that in the past few days, when I had nothing to do, I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart. I didn't think clearly about the reason at first. It was only when I heard them mention it that I realized that he... had not been here for some days.

This was something she had never experienced since her rebirth.

what happened to him?

Are you really sick?

……

In the residence of Marquis Weiyuan, Mu Rong was sitting behind the desk, and Shu Qing was sitting opposite him, holding his breath and taking his pulse.

After a long time, Shu Qing just raised his hand: "The Marquis's pulse is the same as the county master's before. The symptoms of poisoning are gone, but the toxicity is still there."

After finishing speaking, he then asked: "How many percent of the Marquis' internal strength is left now?"

Mu Rong glanced at Shu Qing and said in a hoarse voice, "Thirty percent."

Shu Qing's heart sank, and after a while he murmured: "Has the Marquis ever regretted it?"

The dignified first-grade military lord has only [-]% of his internal strength left. If he cannot develop a real interpretation method, he will die in pain in a few years, and all this... just to save a woman...

"Regret?" Mu Rong smiled slightly, raised his hand to make a fist and then released it. He looked at the slight blush on his palm and said with a smile, "Mr. Shu thought that what I talked with you that day was just a temporary thought?"

"Of course not..." Shu Qing said hurriedly.

"Then there's no need to ask anymore." Mu Rong waved his hand, and the wind of his palm instantly extinguished all the lights next to the door.

When Shu Qing saw this, he immediately stopped talking.

Mu Rong glanced at the other party and smiled lightly: "Not to mention how much internal strength it is, even if I exchange my life for my life, I will never regret it. It's just... besides you and me, there can be no third party in this matter." People know.”

He couldn't let Xu Rongrong bear any criticism.

Mu Rong's firmness also moved Shu Qing: "Don't worry, Lord Marquis, I will strictly keep the secret! And...I will do my best to detoxify the Lord Marquis."

"Then I'll leave it to you." Mu Rong nodded and continued, "There is one more thing that needs Mr. Shu's help."

"What's the matter?" Shu Qing asked.

"After I was poisoned, my physical condition deteriorated rapidly. I must have been able to hide it from the county lord, so I have never been to Zhuxiang Yayuan these days. This... is very different from my past habits. People around the county lord have become suspicious. Today When Mu Lu went to Zhuxiang Yayuan, Luo Shu had already asked twice in a subtle way, I and the people around me are not good at lying, I wonder if Mr. Shu can find a way to distract the county boss?"

Shu Qing frowned when he heard this. Does this mean he is good at lying? ?

So he replied: "I am only good at curing diseases. As for other things... it seems impossible to think of it."

"Has Luo Xiao's disease been cured?" Mu Rong raised his eyebrows and glanced at Shu Qing, "Although tuberculosis is difficult, given Mr. Shu's ability, this little time seems to be enough?"

"Mrs. Xiao has indeed recovered. She has been taking Luo Yuqi to help in the medicine shop these days... What does the Marquis mean... to ask them for help?"

Mu Rong nodded: "Let them go to Zhuxiang Yayuan tomorrow. The county master has been thinking about them for a long time."

Shu Qing understood immediately: "Master Hou wants them to distract the county lord's attention?"

"Exactly."

When Shu Qing heard this, he smiled and said, "I'll go back and ask them what they mean, but... I'm sorry to say it bluntly, but I'm afraid the county master will feel more comfortable if the Marquis doesn't go to Zhuxiang Yayuan."

Mu Rong: "..."

……

The next day, Luo Xiao sent a message and wanted to visit her.

After Xu Rongrong received the invitation, she was really overjoyed.

While she asked Aunt Xiao to prepare tea, she asked Luo Shu to feed the rabbit and give it to Luo Yuqi to play with.

Aunt Xiao had never met the Luo Xiao family, but she smiled when she saw Xu Rongrong was so happy. While she told Ji Xiang and Ruyi to pay attention to the hospitality, she personally watched Zhu Yu and other Wu Zhus carefully preparing tea and cakes in the kitchen, busy His feet didn't touch the ground and he almost fell.

Wen Yao was startled and quickly told her to be careful.

Aunt Xiao didn't take it seriously: "It's rare to see the county master have such a lovely friend. Can't I be more careful? If something goes wrong, will I lose the county master's people?"

Wen Yao smiled and said, "Don't be too nervous, mama. Mrs. Xiao and her daughter are easy to get along with. When we were in Yuzhou City, the young lady and them were like family members."

"In this case, the old slave will naturally have to be more careful..." After speaking, Aunt Xiao sighed, "Speaking of Yuzhou City, there is also a little girl from the old slave tribe who married in Yuzhou City, and now there is no news All gone.”
