[Old Nine Gates] The concubine is polite

After two days of unremitting efforts, Li Yan finally honed a group of ancient artists who were good at guzheng and erhu playing and singing into a post-modern non-mainstream.The group of artists showed two very different attitudes towards the wacky melodies provided by Li Yan.The young school blends the past and the present, and was shocked by Li Yan's unique singing voice, feeling that there are people beyond the sky and people beyond the sky.And the representatives of the group of old-school artistes were grimacing and sighing all day long, lamenting that people's hearts are not ancient and their skills are buried. If they didn't bend their waists for the three buckets of rice, they would not want to suffer the torture of their eyes and ears if they were killed.

Li Yan is busy, and Buddha is even busier, because the new intelligence officer Lu Jianxun is jumping up and down, and the burden of Master Zhang is getting heavier and heavier recently, but no matter how busy Buddha is, he is not indifferent to Li Yan's big movement Know.It's rare that Li Yan, who was always melancholy before, is now more and more cheerful. Zhang Qishan just smiled after hearing the butler's report, and replied that his wife is happy.

After reviewing the new approval document sent by Shangfeng, Zhang Qishan stretched his waist and pressed his fingers on the bridge of his nose to relieve his tired body.

"Buddha, are you done with your work? I'm ready for dinner." Li Yan relied on her sharp ears to detect the sound of Buddha taking a break, and immediately opened the door of the study, and asked.

"Come in, I heard from the housekeeper that you visited your wife in the morning, has she recovered?" Buddha got up, walked to the sofa in the side hall and sat down.

Li Yan smiled and followed to the side hall, and sat down next to the Buddha: "I sent some herbs as before, hoping to improve my wife's immunity and prolong life. Tripterygium wilfordii, grass and car, fleas, asparagus, Solanum nigrum and others are anti-cancer drugs, I hope it can bring improvement to my wife's condition."

Zhang Qishan nodded worryingly: "I hope so."

Li Yan raised his hand to touch Zhang Qishan's always frowning brow, but Zhang Qishan leaned back and avoided it.Seeing that his behavior of eating tofu failed, Li Yan continued to encourage him: "Buddha, I recently learned a set of massage techniques, which can relieve tense muscles. How about I squeeze them for you?"

"No..." Zhang Qishan wanted to refuse.

"Huh?" Li Yan pouted and stared at him.

After a short stalemate between the two, Zhang Qishan smiled compromisingly: "Okay, press it."

"Hey, you lie on the sofa, I'll give you a full set of massage to make sure you feel comfortable all over." Li Yan smiled, eager to try.

"This is a study after all, how about next time?" Zhang Qishan quickly resorted to slowing down when he heard that he was going to lie down so disrespectful.

Li Yan frowned, thought for a while, and suggested: "It's okay if you don't lie down, then Buddha, you can just lean back on the sofa and relax. I'll help you pinch your shoulders to relieve the meridians in your lower neck and spine?"

"En." After work, Zhang Qishan was filled with emotion to be accompanied by a good wife who treats him tenderly. According to Li Yan's request, he closed his eyes and relaxed his body on the sofa.

Li Yan had a very fulfilling life these days, singing and dancing to choose food and clothing, Chinese medicine massage to buy medicinal materials, and in between, she had to go to the Red Mansion to visit the girl whose condition was not improving at all, and there was no time to think about those troublesome things during the busy days.

After finding the acupuncture point, Li Yan pressed and pulled Zhang Qishan's neck with the strength he thought was appropriate: "Buddha, is this strength appropriate?"

Mr. Zhang Dafo estimated that he would only go to Chinese medicine for massage when his muscles were strained during military training. People who have not been exposed to this kind of massage for a long time will not be used to it at first, but Mr. Zhang is so pain-resistant that Li Yan can't tell from his face. Whether your own strength is light or heavy.

"Hmm." Master Zhang closed his eyes and just hummed in response.

Suspiciously, Li Yan leaned over and peeked at Zhang Foye, who was enjoying himself with his eyes closed, and muttered, "Foye fell asleep?"

"Not at all." Foye said, he opened his eyes and looked at Li Yan who was peeking above him.

Li Yan was dazed for a while by the frontal attack of the Buddha's eyes, put his hand on his forehead and closed his eyes, and said in a reproach: "Buddha, you fouled."

Zhang Qishan seemed to be amused by Li Yan, and the shoulder under Li Yan's palm was vibrated by the muffled laughter.Li Yan also pursed his lips and laughed, thinking to himself: "My Buddha is really a model of the boring type."

Probably feeling that the strength of Li Yan's massage was gradually slowing down, Zhang Qishan stretched out his hand to hold the back of Li Yan's hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Li Yan cleverly took the opportunity to hold Zhang Qishan's hand, shook it and said, "Buddha, I'm hungry, let's go eat together?"

Zhang Qishan nodded with an expression of "my family has a big rice bucket" and agreed: "Okay, let's go."

"Buddha, did your expression just mean that you disliked me?"

Zhang Qishan shook his head decisively: "No."

Li Yan puffed his face, and looked at Zhang Qishan's expression suspiciously: "Really? Could it be that my eyes are dazzled?"

Looking at Li Yan's swollen face, Zhang Qishan couldn't help recalling Li Yan's high-frequency eating appearance during this period, especially like a white and tender hamster. Because of his small stomach, he couldn't eat too much at a time, but he wanted to eat again, so he You can only steal some food every once in a while.But as the only second master in the mansion, and his gluttonous appearance can't be seen by others, Li Yan can only avoid people in various ways, and fight guerrilla warfare cautiously.The only one who can spend his mind on eating more food is probably the wronged wife beside me who steals food.

"It's a blessing to be able to eat. The most important thing in our Zhang family is money."

Li Yan, who was successfully pleased by Master Zhang's rich and powerful subtext, covered his face and smiled more like a fat white hamster who successfully stole food.

"······" Zhang Qishan looked at a table of six dishes with reasonable but always weird dishes. For the first time, he didn't know how to use his chopsticks.

"Buddha, eat, it's cold now, it's delicious to eat while it's hot." Li Yan graciously persuaded him to eat, stretched out his hand, and put a chopstick of meat into Zhang Qishan's bowl.

Zhang Qishan took a look at the meat, and asked awkwardly, "Is this donkey meat?"

Li Yan nodded innocently and honestly: "Yes, as the saying goes, 'Goose meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground'. Donkey meat is delicious, and it is a kind of meat with high protein, low fat, and low cholesterol. Traditional Chinese medicine It is believed that donkey meat is sweet and cool in nature and has the effect of invigorating qi, nourishing blood, calming the nerves and relieving troubles. So, Lord Buddha, you should eat more of this to nourish your body."

Zhang Qishan ate the donkey meat in one gulp, and smiled wryly in his heart: "I'm afraid you haven't mentioned the most important function of donkey meat. It can nourish yin and strengthen yang, and can treat impotence, weakness of the waist and knees, etc."

Seeing that Zhang Qishan ate the donkey meat, Li Yan, who succeeded in his trick, scooped up another bowl of soup and put it in front of Zhang Qishan: "Come, Buddha, drink the soup."

Zhang Qishan looked down at Li Yansheng's soup, and was silent for a while, then looked up at Li Yan and said, "Ayan, what's the reason?"

Seeing that Zhang Qishan had guessed what Li Yan meant, it was the first time he tried to do this kind of thing, and it was hard not to be embarrassed.Li Yan blushed slightly and avoided Zhang Qishan's eyes with guilt, and said hesitantly: "Well, Lord Buddha, look, loach contains high-quality protein, calcium, vitamin B1, niacin, fat, phosphorus, iron, vitamin A, etc. It tastes sweet. , flat nature, has the effect of nourishing the middle and nourishing qi. I also saw that the Buddha has been working very hard recently, so I ordered to make these food tonic dishes for you to nourish your body. The taste of this loach tofu soup is actually not bad. I have Tried it."

Are you sure you didn't nourish my kidneys?Zhang Qishan helplessly supported his forehead, and sighed with emotion what he had done to make his wife go out of her way to invigorate her kidneys for no reason.

"Buddha, don't you like this soup? Shall I ask someone to remove it?" Seeing that Zhang Qishan didn't move his chopsticks, Li Yan immediately winked at the servant standing beside him to change the soup.

"No need, Ah Yan must have put a lot of effort into these recipes. After hearing about the effects of these dishes, my appetite whetted." Zhang Qishan waved his hand to stop the servants from moving, and began to eat with chopsticks.

"That's right, Lord Buddha also thinks these dishes are good, right?" Li Yan's eyes sparkled, as if seeking praise.

Zhang Qishan couldn't help laughing: "Ayan, I'm afraid that if I make up more, those custom-made clothes will not be able to fit."

"Then redo it." Li Yan counted his private treasury in private, rich and self-willed, but Li Yan suddenly thought of a good idea, excitedly said: "Buddha, Ah Yan can help you make clothes by yourself." How is it possible, of course I measure and the tailor does it.

"Then trouble Ayan."

"You're welcome, this is Ayan's job."

Although Li Yan was anxious in his heart, he would not really make fun of Zhang Qishan's body. Except for the two dishes of nourishing yin and strengthening yang that Zhang Qishan ate a couple of bites at the beginning, Zhang Qishan would not be allowed to touch them again. Everything is too much, After a meal, Li Yan was exhausted.

After dinner, Zhang Qishan usually discusses business affairs with the adjutant in the study. Li Yan confirmed that Zhang Qishan had arrived in the study, and immediately ordered Erya to prepare according to the plan, while he called the two maidservants, stepped into the bathtub as if on a battlefield, and closed his eyes Gritting his teeth, he said, "Come on, scrub hard, make sure it's clean, and apply essential oil to me after washing."

"Yes, ma'am." The two girls looked at each other and responded with smiles covering their faces.

After a while, there was a cry like a pig being killed in the bathroom.

"Madam, are you okay?" Erya couldn't bear to look directly at his wife whose skin was as red as if she had been scalded.

Li Yan shook her head: "It's okay, have you prepared everything I asked you to do?"

"It's all ready, don't worry, I promise to surprise the Buddha tonight."

Li Yan nodded, the smile on his face was unbearably cheerful.

Because Li Yan had said hello beforehand, Adjutant Zhang saw that the time was almost up, so he and Master Zhang resigned and left.However, Master Zhang would not go back to his bedroom early because he has no official business. Soldiers have fixed living habits, and they simply sit on the sofa in the side hall of the study and read articles and books before it is time to go to bed.

Li Yan, who had expected that the Buddha would not come back so honestly, prepared a second hand. The always honest and honest butler once again played the role of the sweet-hearted and worried aunt. He left the study room: "Buddha, it's getting late, you've worked hard all day, go to bed early."

Zhang Qishan looked at the housekeeper strangely: "What time is it?"

"It's already three quarters of the hour." The housekeeper bowed and replied softly.

Zhang Qishan nodded, feeling that it was still early: "Well, I see, remind me when you arrive at midnight."

The butler stood aside, with a look of doubt on his face: "Master Buddha, just now I heard from my servant that my wife's body doesn't seem to be in good shape, do you see?"

Zhang Qishan got up: "What's going on?"
