Chapter 313 Contradiction (2)
The winter night is extremely quiet, a few stars twinkle faintly in the sky, and after a while those stars disappear in the night sky. The sky suddenly turned black as if it had been smeared with ink, empty and deep.
Xu Daniu was patrolling the courtyard when he leisurely heard a burst of melodious music. The guard Er Gouzi who was following Xu Daniu's face changed drastically, and said: "I heard that there are people in the Jianghu who use musical instruments to kill people. Big Niu brother, do you think there are assassins who want to harm the wife?" It was directed at Mrs.
Once bitten, twice shy. With the fact that Yuxi was stabbed by assassins twice, Xu Daniu was always worried. Hearing this, he rushed to the backyard like flying. When he was stopped by his mother-in-law at the gate of the courtyard, Xu Daniu shouted loudly: "There are assassins, there are assassins lurking in the mansion, I want to see my wife..."
The woman guarding the gate was terrified, but it was her duty to let a foreigner into the courtyard without a report. The mother-in-law said to Xu Daniu outside the door in a friendly voice: "You wait outside for a while, I will send someone to tell the lady right now."
When Yuxi heard that there was an assassin, she put down her flute and walked out. Hongqi and Hongdou followed Yuxi closely at this time, not letting anyone get close.
Xu Daniu was led into the main hall by Mother Qu, and said to Yuxi: "Madam, I suspect that there are assassins coming to assassinate Madam, Madam must be careful."
Yuxi thought it was an assassin who broke into Yunfu, but she didn't expect it to be just Xu Daniu's suspicion. Yuxi asked: "What evidence is there?"
Xu Daniu relayed Er Gouzi's words just now, and said, "Madam, I suspect that this assassin has already lurked in the mansion. Madam, from now on..." Before he finished speaking, he saw Yuxi laughing.
"Hehe..." Yuxi couldn't bear it any longer, and laughed out loud. Seeing Xu Daniu's puzzled look, Yu Xi explained: "I was playing the flute just now, it wasn't some killer attacking."
Xu Daniu was taken aback for a moment, but when he came back to his senses, he wished he could dig a hole in the ground, his face was as red as a cloud of fire, and he couldn't speak fluently: "Ma'am, I..." It's embarrassing to have such a big oolong. To grandma's house.
Yuxi smiled and said: "I'm to blame for this, I shouldn't be playing the flute at night." She also entered the room and saw the flute on the bedside, and she got excited, so she didn't know that there would be such a misunderstanding.
Xu Daniu felt ashamed to face others: "Madam, since it's a misunderstanding, then I won't disturb Madam's rest."
At this time Xu Wu walked in, saw Xu Daniu and asked: "Er Gouzi just said that you found the assassin? When did you see the assassin? Where did you see the assassin?" As for the appearance, I don't ask, Da Niu Where can I see the face at night.
Yu Xi smiled and said: "There is no assassin, it's just a misunderstanding." She thought Xu Daniu was also quite funny, to believe that music could kill people.
After leaving the courtyard, Xu Wu was amused and annoyed when he found out what had happened, and cursed, "Music can kill people? Do you think this is a script?" The killer in the script can indeed kill with music. In real life, That is impossible.
Xu Daniu didn't explain. If he explained at this time, he would be scolded bloody: "Boss, how can Madam play the flute?" He had never heard that Madam could play an instrument before! The flute, that is, I have never played it before!
Xu Wu laughed and said: "Madam has never played the flute, it doesn't mean she can't." The girl from this rich family has to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Madam can play the flute, Xu Wuzhen didn't find it strange.
Xu Daniu was also fooled by Er Gouzi's words just now, and he felt stupid when he returned to normal: "Boss, what kind of flute is Madam playing this late at night?" It's very penetrating to blow at night!
Xu Wu snorted coldly and said, "Madam can play the flute whenever she wants? Do I still need to ask for your permission?" Probably Madam wanted to be a general, so she played a tune to express her longing.
Honestly in front of Xu Wu, when he returned to the front yard, Xu Daniu found Er Gouzi, ready to beat him up: "You bastard is talking nonsense, otherwise I would lose face.
"
Although Er Gouzi was wronged, he didn't want to wait foolishly for Xu Daniu to beat him up, so he ran out quickly. One ran, the other chased, and they made a fuss for half an hour, which was extremely lively.
Yuxi returned to the house, looked at the flute on the table, and couldn't help laughing again when she thought of what happened just now. From now on, I will not play the flute at night, so as not to scare people.
Shiliu didn't know what happened just now, so she said happily, "Madam, when you were playing the flute just now, the second girl was very happy, she couldn't be happier."
Yuxi's eyes lit up, and she asked, "Really?" Seeing that Pomegranate nodded with certainty, Yuxi picked up the flute again and played a tune she was familiar with. Still waving.
After playing a song, Yuxi put down the flute and hugged Liu'er, and said with a smile: "So Liu'er likes musical instruments? Then when you grow up, I will ask Mr. to teach you." Well, not only Liu'er has to learn , Jujube also has to learn.
When Xu Daniu heard the music, he said, "This song is better than the one just now." Although the song just now was nice, it sounded depressing and uncomfortable. Unlike the current song, it is very cheerful.
Xu Wu was a little puzzled, the style of music before and after was too different.
After breakfast the next day, Xu Wu came over and said to Yu Xi: "Ma'am, the general has already broken through the West City, and I believe it won't take long for Mai City to be included."
When Yuxi heard the good news, she felt better.
But Xu Wu said worriedly: "Madam, it's only been a little over a month since the general dispatched troops. Isn't this speed too fast?" The progress was so smooth that Xu Wu felt uneasy.
Yuxi was not surprised by this result. These days, Ji Xuan has caused complaints from the people in the northwest, otherwise the rebel army in the south city would not have grown so quickly. If there is a government order to benefit the people, the common people still don't support Yunqing. Yuxi said: "Those who gain the way will be helped more, and those who have lost the way will be given little help. But it is easy now, but it will not be so smooth when entering Shaanxi." It can only be said that it is good luck to occupy the whole of Gansu for more than a month. But Shaanxi is not so easy to occupy. However, Yuxi hopes that this battle can be completed before March, so that Yunqing can also send troops back to Yucheng. For Fu Tianlei, Yuxi is really worried.
Xu Wu told Yuxi a lot of things, especially about the magistrate appointed by Yunqing, which made Yuxi look a little dignified.
After a while, Yuxi said, "When the situation stabilizes, these people must be assessed." There are great hidden dangers in Yunqing's actions, but Yuxi knows that this is just a stopgap measure, so she doesn't say much. But when the Northwest stabilizes, it needs to be rectified.
After finishing the business, Xu Wu said with some embarrassment: "Ma'am, my adoptive father asked me to carry Zaoza over." He really didn't want to say this in front of Yuxi, but his adoptive father had orders, and he didn't dare to disobey .
Yuxi's expression paused, and she always had the greatest kindness for the people around her. Yu Xi asked: "Xu Wu, how is Uncle Huo's health recently?" She is not a stingy person either, she never stopped Zao Zao from going to the front yard to accompany him. But Huo Changqing's recent behavior is very abnormal, which makes Yuxi unable to understand.
Xu Wu didn't think too much about it, and said, "Doctor Bai showed the adoptive father two days ago, and said that the adoptive father is in good health."
Yu Xi asked: "How is the mental aspect?" Huo Changqing was too abnormal during this period, it was not because of the body, but because of the spirit.
Now Xu Wu knew what Yuxi was going to ask: "Madam, the adoptive father may be old and afraid of being alone. He likes Zaozao so much, so he always wants to take Zaozao with him. Madam, this I hope Madam can understand."
Yuxi felt that what Xu Wu said made sense, and said: "You know who I am. I never stopped Uncle Huo from seeing Zaozao. But Zaozao is still young after all, and he can't do without me. You and Uncle Huo Say that if Zao Zao cries and wants to see me later, ask Granny Yu to bring her back."
There is no reason for Xu Wu not to agree.
As soon as Zaozao saw Yuxi, she stretched out her hand and shouted: "Mother, hug..." When she reached Yuxi's arms, she hugged Yuxi's neck and didn't let go.
Seeing the child so sticky to herself, Yu Xi felt a little distressed, and said to Xu Wu: "I will ask Mrs. Yu to send Yu Xi to the front yard later."
Xu Wu hesitated for a moment, but nodded in agreement. Back in the front yard, I told Huo Changqing about this: "Father, Zao Zao is at the age of Mrs. Nian, why don't you wait two days to bring Zao Zao here!"
Huo Changqing didn't say a word.
After half an hour, Yu Pozi carried Zao Zao to the front yard. Seeing Zao Zao, Huo Changqing smiled and said, "Zao Zao, do you miss Grandpa?"
Zao Zao milk called out childishly: "Grandpa..."
At noon, Zao Zao stayed in the front yard for lunch. But after waking up from the afternoon nap, Zao Zao cried for Yu Xi: "Mother, mother..."
Huo Changqing coaxed him for a long time but couldn't coax him. Seeing that Zao Zao kept barking, he had no choice but to ask Mrs. Yu to carry the child back to the backyard. After Mrs. Yu left, Huo Changqing stood in the yard for a long time. As for what he was thinking, no one knew except himself.
Yuxi took the jujube and habitually touched her forehead, feeling a little hot. But she wasn't sure, so she hugged it and showed it to Mother Lan.
Mother Lan touched Zaozao's forehead, then checked carefully, and said, "It's a little fever." Seeing that Yuxi wanted to call the doctor, Mother Lan said: "Madam, if the child has a fever, you don't have to see a doctor. From now on Qi feeds the young lady water every half an hour, if the young lady is still like this at night, let Doctor Bai take a look at it!" Doctor Bai is in the mansion, always on call, very convenient.
Hearing this, Yuxi asked a little strangely: "Shouldn't you see a doctor for fever?"
Mother Lan explained: "The eldest girl's condition is not serious. If you drink more water at night, it may go down." It is because the medicine is three-point poisonous. If you can not take medicine, you should avoid letting your child take medicine. Of course, Mother Lan also knew that Zao Zao was in good health, and she would pass after a while, but she wouldn't dare to do this in Liu'er.
Although Yuxi had doubts in her heart, she still followed what she said. He fed Zao Zao water every half an hour, and after drinking Zazao twice, he refused to drink again, so Yuxi asked Mama Bai to squeeze pear juice to feed. Drinking water and juice all the time, the frequency of urination will be more. Before going to bed at night, Zao Zao's body temperature returned to normal.
Yuxi's health is not good, and she can't stand the torment for a long time. Give Zao Zao to Granny Yu to take care of her: "Be sure to leave someone to watch at night. If there is anything wrong with the girl, wake me up immediately." The child's fever will come and go, and she is worried that Zao Zao will relapse at night.
This is also the case. In the next few days, Yuxi didn't let Zaozao go to the front yard again. It's true that Huo Changqing loves Zao Zao, but Zao Zao didn't know he had a fever twice, it was too careless. Until Zaozao is in good health and has not fully recovered, she will not let Zaozao go to the front yard again. R8
