Chapter 175

Zhao Changqing never thought that Yaoyao had this identity. This book is updated on Baidu to search for Zhuji Bookstores.

There are so many bitterness in the world.

Ru Yaoyao, a lady from a noble family, grew up as a golden slave and a silver maid. Once her family was ruined, she traveled thousands of miles to the border city and met and recognized Zhao Changqing in this way and in this way.

"I was still young when I was at home. I just heard my mother talk about cousin Yu's marriage by chance. Later, when I arrived in the border town, I heard someone talk about Sister Zhao. I thought that when I saw Sister Zhao, I would think that when I saw her, I would treat her as a relative." Yaoyao took Zhao Changqing's hand and said a lot, and waited until the medicine was decocted and fed her to drink the medicine. The prescription fell asleep under the influence of the medicine.

When Major General Chen came, it was already evening. Seeing that there were almost tears on Zhao Changqing's face, his face suddenly changed drastically. He rushed over and called out, "A Yao——" Some of them were heartbroken and anxious, and it was hard to describe.

Zhao Changqing hurriedly said, "Yaoyao just took medicine, general, don't quarrel with her."

Major General Chen held Yaoyao's hand and gently brushed away the broken hair on her forehead, revealing her petite and delicate face, and staggered the wound on Yaoyao's neck. Major General Chen pressed the corner of her quilt for her and sat for a while before asking Zhao Changqing to go out and talk.

After hearing Zhao Changqing talk about Yaoyao's health, Major General Chen said, "Please trouble Doctor Zhao. Yaoyao is meticulous, so she can tell you that the military affairs are busy these days. I am not here during the day. Doctor Zhao often comes to relieve her."

Even though he learned about Yaoyao's marriage, Zhao Changqing did not say a word. He just explained the matter to the good doctor and stood up to say goodbye.

After leaving Qingyun Lane, Zhao Changqing couldn't tell what he felt in his heart, and he didn't mention Yaoyao's incident when he came home. She was no longer a passionate girl, nor did she have the ambition to help the world. Yaoyao had Yaoyao's life. In Zhao Changqing's opinion, it was Yaoyao's luck to be able to follow Major General Chen and have a place in Major General Chen's heart.

Is Major General Chen a sea of ​​suffering?

joke!

What's more, Yaoyao can always recognize her position. Although there was a big fight today, it might be Yaoyao's cleverness to rather die than join the general's mansion. What does it feel like to live a peaceful life outside and have no worries about food and clothing? What does it feel like to make a living as a slave and a maid under the mistress's hands tremblingly?

Yaoyao is not stupid. She can still protect her innocence after her family is destroyed. Don’t think that Wanhualou’s top talents are good. Yaoyao already has her own survival skills. Slim people are not necessarily fragile. Moreover, Yaoyao has never asked Zhao Changqing for any help from beginning to end.

In the end, Zhao Changqing attributed it to the fact that Yaoyao had sex with her, maybe she wanted to find someone who could talk.

Half a month later, Yaoyao invited Zhao Changqing to eat the deer tongue, "The general brought me some people to eat. I don't eat a lot of meat. I tasted it yesterday, and it tasted a bit. I told the kitchen to prepare it early this morning and invite my sister to eat."

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Deer tongue is a good thing, you should eat more."

Yaoyao smiled, "Fry it with white spirit mushrooms, I eat the mushrooms inside and deer tendons, which I also stew under the kitchen. Sister, let's have two cups tonight."

Zhao Changqing asked, "Will the general come today?"

Yaoyao sighed, "He always comes to accompany me these days, and asks me to think about my family. I advised him to go home today and not blame the big grandma. If he changes to another mistress, he will live or die outside. The big grandma wants to take me into the house, and it is the big grandma who is kind. Even if he is a little unprepared in words, he has nothing to do with the big grandma. I am not lucky and cannot live the life in the house. As long as he can think of me occasionally and remember to come and see me, I will be content."

After hearing these sets of informed and reasonable words, Zhao Changqing was speechless for a moment.

The maid brought the tea, Yaoyao handed him a cup to Zhao Changqing and smiled bitterly, "Although he said that, he actually wished he could come to see me every day and accompany me every day, and he was the only one in his heart. However, I had no name after all, and his big grandmother was married to him. Because my family was uneasy, I would be more confident in the name of the vixen. Besides, he is a person who does big things, and I don't have any troubles here. If the family is uneasy, it will also be distracted. He treats me well, and I can't always think about myself."

Zhao Changqing took a tea ceremony, "If you understand everything, I don't have to worry."

Yaoyao smiled, "Sister, don't worry, I have been here alone over the years. I told my sister about my life experience. I didn't think that my sister was worried about me, but because I was worried that my sister thought I was not decent and unwilling to interact with me, so I really didn't even have a person who could talk."

"No," Zhao Changqing said, "When did you get bored? Just ask someone to come to me. I don't have any other great skills, and it will be better to talk with you."

Yaoyao showed Zhao Changqing the incense bag she made for Major General Chen, and asked Zhao Changqing what medicinal materials to put in it.

The two talked and laughed until evening, and Zhao Changqing said goodbye after dinner.

Before leaving, Yaoyao also gave Zhao Changqing a few pieces of red materials, which were woven with gold and stunning colors, which were very gorgeous. Zhao Changqing smiled, "I have nowhere to wear such good materials, so you can keep them yourself."

Yaoyao stroked the gorgeous material, and her smile was like mist surrounding the spring mountain. "It was too much for me to give it to me. In fact, I was outside, and no one cared about me in big red, but it was not suitable. I left two of them as a thought, this is for my sister, so don't be polite to me."

Zhao Changqing stopped refusing, and took the opportunity to accept it. He whispered a few words to Yaoyao before leaving.

When Zhao Changqing arrived home, Ling was looking at the newly sent gem hairpin from Zhenbaozhai with Zhao Rong. Ling smiled and said, "I'm back, come and have a look. It's already done. I'll give it to your sister and the hairpin. How can you see?"

Zhao Changqing looked at Ling's hand and smiled, "It is worthy of Zhenbaozhai's craftsmanship, and it is well-deserved. A good hairpin can be used as a ritual." Zhao Rong was born on the second day of the Lunar New Year, so she went to the temple to bid for a good day, and planned to be held on the sixth day of the third month. Ling took Zhao Rong to the gem hairpin designated by Zhenbaozhai, and was decent for use at a ritual.

In fact, Ling had a scrupulous attitude. Old Mrs. Zhu gave Zhao Changqing a box of gems of excellent quality. Nowadays, gold and silver are limited. The preciousness of gems is far more valuable than gold and silver. Ling wanted to use Zhao Changqing's gems to make a hairpin for Zhao Rong, but she made several hints in front of Zhao Changqing. Zhao Changqing just pretended to be stupid and didn't take this sentence. Ling had to do it. She said to her husband privately that her daughter was stingy, "It's more and more generous than when she was a child, and she was dedicated to saving things by herself."

Zhao Yong said, "It's not good to live a life? Changqing has business outside, and his subordinates hire those people and work with others, which is also expensive. Has she asked you for money? It would be better to take more money for A Rong to go to the shop to make a gift for her child in his life."

Ling didn't say anything anymore and spent 500 taels of silver to make this gem hairpin for Zhao Rong.

Seeing Zhao Changqing say yes, Ling smiled, "You and the great master will reward your hairpin at that time. That is a good treasure that is hard to find. Arong doesn't have your luck, so she will also give her a good helper."

Zhao Changqing smiled, "It should be, Arong is also a big girl. She doesn't have any good jewelry normally. She is about to dress up when she is about to say she is kissing. Are the clothes for the wedding dress ready?"

"Before, the Qianzhenfang will be delivered in two days. The embroiderer of this piece of clothing is simply amazing. It costs dozens of taels of silver, and I don't think it is better than your work." Zhao Changqing made the clothes he gave back then.

Zhao Changqing smiled, "It's a pity that I don't have time to stay at home now, otherwise I won't be able to take it out."

Zhao Rong smiled, "It's even if my sister is at home, I can't bother with my needlework. I'm not smarter than my sister, otherwise I'd done it myself."

"You have your benefits." Zhao Changqing responded to a few words, then went back to the house to change his clothes.

Before Zhao Rong's wedding ceremony arrived, something happened to Ling Sijie's in-laws' house.

Mrs. Ling sighed, "It's also unlucky. Her in-laws' uncle is a good official in the prefect's office. The official rank is not high, but he is poor. The fourth sister and her in-laws' family followed her and contracted a canteen in the prefect's office, and lived a wealthy life. She was unlucky when she met the military officer on the road. She accidentally shocked her horse and fell down at that time. She didn't look at the staff after finding many doctors. She passed away. In this yamen, the tea became cold as soon as she left. The canteen did not ask her in-laws to contract, so she told her to chase her back."

Ling comforted, "This is also helpless. Isn't her in-laws still having two shops outside, which can be easy to operate and live a life."

Mrs. Ling sighed, "I have to think like this." After taking a sip of tea, Mrs. Ling said again, "I don't have that smooth life. I don't have much worry about the affairs of the fourth sister-in-law's family. It's really annoying. Someone in front of me told me that I was a merchant and a man was not big. This year, I have three shops at home, only one daughter, and a big house with four in Hawthorn Alley. I looked very good, and your elder brother didn't say anything, but when I told the dead girl, I was unhappy. I really wouldn't give up if I didn't get angry."

Ling's heart was worried, "Changqing is like hatred. Someone said that he was a scholar before the New Year. He was a scholar. He was delayed by studying for a scholar. This year's 23rd year. The family also made me honest. When I asked about it, she was honest. She looked down on him and could make people desperate."

The sister-in-law and sister-in-law complained about the bitterness for half a day. At noon, Mrs. Ling had to eat, and Mrs. Ling said goodbye in the afternoon.

When Zhao Changqing came home, he heard Ling say, "After all, I heard from your aunt that the military officers didn't even pay a penny of money. The fourth sister's in-laws' aunt is going to sue the official."

Zhao Changqing said, "The military officer is a fat man in the army. He can't sit in that position if he has nothing to do. But after all, it's because he died, so it's too mean to not pay a penny of money."

"Who said no, wait for retribution? The dog official who was struck by lightning!" Ling cursed fiercely and sighed, "The matter of your second sister has not yet been settled. I saw that the fourth sister married a good husband's family, but if such a thing happened, your eldest aunt was worried again."

Zhao Changqing said, "The fourth sister's family is not just relying on contracting the canteen, but she still has other businesses outside. After managing those businesses, she can live a life."

"I told your aunt the same way, just a parent who is born to worry about life." Ling sighed.

Zhao Changqing knew that Ling was talking about her marriage, and was really impatient to listen to Ling's nagging, so he hurriedly found an excuse to go out. Ling and the white woman said, "I have used this little trick on me. I know that I want to talk about her, so I will run away first."

The white lady smiled and advised, "Madam, don't worry, we young girls, are you afraid that we can't get married? You just want to find someone who is so cute. After all, this marriage is a lifelong thing, and it's better to be lacking than to be overly bad."

Ling said worriedly, "I am her biological mother, how can I not think about her? Now these girls are all old, and they are not in a hurry, and they are still picking things."

Zhao Changqing took Yongfu around and walked around. In fact, there was no place to go. It was late at night and the shop was closed.

I kept walking along the street, and I heard someone call her name. Zhao Changqing looked back and saw that it was Xia Wen. Xia Wen walked over a few steps and laughed, "Doctor Zhao hasn't come home yet." These days, things are not busy, and Zhao Changqing has left early.

"I'll come out and take a walk." Seeing Xia Wen holding a greasy paper bag, Zhao Changqing glanced at the street and asked with a smile, "Are you just queuing up to buy pork head meat?"

Xia Wen laughed, "The pork head meat from Lao Liu's family is stewed with nothing. It's fragrant but not greasy, and crispy but not rotten. My father loves this. I'll buy some to put it on for him. There is still a fire here. You haven't eaten yet, so you can put it on first." Then he took one to Zhao Changqing and handed one to Yongfu.

Zhao Changqing hurriedly said, "No, no, no, I will go home in a while."

Xia Wen forced the fire to Zhao Changqing's hand and smiled, "I was just queuing up, but I saw you walking around for a long time and there was no place to go. Come to my house for dinner, I'm in your shop for a consultation. My mother wanted to ask me to invite your house to have dinner several times. I am shy and you are busy, so I haven't spoken for this year."

Zhao Changqing smiled, "I really don't see where you are shy."

Xia Wen invited each other warmly and laughed, "Let's go, I've finally gotten back and talked, don't dismiss me." Without waiting for Zhao Changqing to refuse, Xia Wen said again, "Or I just thought I didn't tell my family in advance to prepare a banquet, and you think I'm not grand."

Zhao Changqing burned the fire to him and stuffed it into a paper bag, and smiled, "How can a big man say all these choking words?"

Xia Wen laughed, "I'm provoking."

Zhao Changqing despised Xia Wen once, sent Yongfu home and said something, and went to have a meal with Xia Wen. Xia Wen said to Yongfu with great cleverness, "Miss Fu doesn't have to bring a car to pick up Dr. Zhao anymore. After dinner, I will take Dr. Zhao back."

Yongfu went home first.

Usually, I didn’t realize it in the shop, but when I walked on the road, Zhao Changqing realized that Xia Wen was very nagging. He talked about the shops on the street and the customs of border towns. "There are many people selling milk here, but this thing tastes great for people's bodies, but it doesn't taste very good."

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Put some almonds when cooking can remove the fishy smell of milk, but it cannot be completely removed if it doesn't. You can drink it with tea, and it will be much better if it is added to some sugar."

"Wait until I go back and call my mother to try it."

When he walked to a snack shop, Zhao Changqing stopped and said, "Wait a minute." As he said that, he walked into the snack shop. The first time he went to Xia's house, he was not good to bring some things. Xia Wen pulled her out and stopped her and said, "Don't buy it. You can buy something, my mother feels embarrassed."

"If you have something to say, don't pull it." Zhao Changqing slapped Kai Xia Wen's book.

Xia Wen hurriedly bowed and said, "Doctor Zhao should not be surprised."

Zhao Changqing said, "I feel so embarrassed to go empty-handed."

"My family has not prepared a banquet. It's just that you are going to eat whatever you want. If you bring a lot of things, my mother will definitely be in a hurry to send my brother out to buy wine and buy vegetables. You must be uncomfortable." Xia Wen smiled, "We have been together for so long, not outsiders. When we come to my house next time, you can bring some fruits."

The Border Town people are straightforward, and Zhao Changqing didn't be polite to Xia Wen, laughing, "That's fine."

After leaving for a while, Xia Wen asked again, "Doctor Zhao, I guess the reason why you were wandering on the road. Do you know whether you are sure?"

Zhao Changqing narrowed his eyes, "What are you going to guess?"

Xia Wen laughed, "It's nothing but nothing." After saying it for a while, he was afraid that Zhao Changqing would be unhappy, so he stopped talking.

Zhao Changqing snorted lightly, and Xia Wen turned to Zhao Changqing, "Is the pickled vegetables delicious last time? Is it suitable for your taste?"

Zhao Changqing smiled, "It's delicious, my grandmother likes it too. She said that the pickles that you Shu people pickle are good. It's very refreshing to use with white porridge in the morning. How do you pickle? My family has pickled pickles several times, but the taste is always not good, so they mostly bought them outside."

Xia Wen laughed, "The key is the reason for the water. The alley we live in now is called Tianjing Hutong, and the water quality is good. However, I compared it and found that although the well water is good, it still cannot compare to the spring water on the mountain. I took my second brother to push the cart to Wanmei Temple to get the water. After I got the water back, the pickles were halfway. In addition, my unique secret recipe, it naturally tasted good."

"It's the same as not saying it."

Xia Wen smiled, "I really don't know how to pickle it. It's all my mother pickle it. I'll ask you when the time comes."

Zhao Changqing smiled angrily, "Then you said you didn't know, that's it."

Xia Wen smiled foolishly, "Yes, yes." If someone asked, I would definitely say I didn't know. For some reason, Zhao Changqing asked, and his mouth was like a person who didn't know the door, and he kept nagging.

Not only did Xia Wen talk a lot, he also felt that the distance from Shizi Street to his Tianjing Hutong was too close. He arrived home after walking a few steps.
