Hearing her flirtation, Qi Ying blushed even redder and glared at her in feigned annoyance.
Song Wangyue shrugged innocently, “You’re the one who told me to change my words.”
“You little girl ……”, Qi Ying nudged her forehead affectionately, “just know how to make fun of me, won’t force you, whatever you want to call it.”
“Ugh!”
Song Wangyue sighed.
The smile on Qi Ying’s face receded, “What’s wrong?”
“You said ……”, Song Wan Yue asked with a smile, “In what life did my third uncle cultivate the good fortune to marry you?”
“You girl, how dare you trick me.”
Qi Ying pretended to hit her, her hand raised high and pulled the wound, painfully causing her to break out in a cold sweat.
“Does it matter?”
Song Wangyue asked hurriedly.
Qi Ying took a long moment to slow down before letting out a long breath, “Nothing.”
Song Wan Yue also sat down properly, “I won’t mess with you anymore, let’s talk properly, you don’t know that a lot of things have happened since I went to the capital, I’m scared and I haven’t known who to tell.”
Qi Ying moved his body to sit more comfortably, “You talk, I’ll listen.”
Song Wangyue first gave her the story of Song Si.
When she heard that Song Si had picked up the injured Xiao Yao in an emergency, Qi Ying’s face dimmed invisibly, and Song Wangyue saw it clearly, but remained motionless. She also told her about Song Si’s joyful run back to the inn to ask what token of affection to buy.
Qi Ying finally couldn’t listen anymore and covered his mouth with his hand, interrupting her with a light cough, “Yue’er, I’m a little thirsty, please pour me a glass of water.”
Qi Ying took a small sip and handed the cup to her.
“My grandmother wanted to keep her, but my father wasn’t used to it, so my grandmother had to come along, and my maternal great-grandfather, firstly to see the place where my mother had lived for so many years, and secondly to follow to take a break, after all, my grandfather had broken their hearts.”
“Ugh!”
Qi Ying sighed seemingly with emotion, “Two couples, if the man’s heart is not in the woman, the woman is most miserable.”
“Sister Qi is right, in fact the woman is the same, if the heart is not in the man, the man who marries her will also be miserable for the rest of his life.”
Qi Ying’s eyes flickered and she agreed with some difficulty, “Who says otherwise, so a man and a woman must be in love when they marry.”
The two of them talked for another half hour, Qi Ying’s face showed fatigue, Song Wan Yue got up and helped her lie down, “My family bought a mansion in the county, from now on if I have nothing to do I will live here, if sister Qi wants to talk to me, just send someone over to me.”
Qi Ying nodded and said apologetically, “In my condition, I won’t keep you for lunch, when I’m well, I’ll treat you to a good meal.”
“Sure, call on Third Uncle then, my grandmother said he’d break his legs if he dared to visit you before you were engaged, he wouldn’t dare come over, he’d miss you to death.”
Qi Ying seemed to be really tired and closed her eyes.
Song Wangyue helped her tuck in the corner of the blanket, walked out and went straight out of the dartboard, ordering the carriage driver to go to the tavern.
Just as she left, Qi Ying opened her eyes.
The curtain was lifted and Madam Qi walked in, she was just next door and heard the conversation between the two clearly, she walked over to the bed and sat down where Song Wangyue was sitting just now, “It seems they won’t leave for a while, don’t worry, get well first.”
“Mother ……”
Qi Ying seemed to want to say something, Madam Qi waited for her words, after waiting for a while, only then did she hear Qi Ying say tiredly, “I’m tired, I want to sleep for a while, Mother doesn’t need to accompany me.”
……
Gu Yi had just arrived at the tavern with Xiao Si, too. The medicine shopkeeper said that the herbs would not arrive until the afternoon and told him to go back to the tavern and wait, and that he would send someone to deliver the letter when it arrived.
Gu Yi entered the house, the shopkeeper personally made tea and sent it in, and when he came out, he directly dragged Xiao Si to the far side, “What do you mean by the words you didn’t finish that day?”
Xiao Si didn’t remember for a moment, “What words?”
“It’s the words that you dragged me to ask the young master if he really wanted to replace you that day, and then the words you didn’t finish after that.”
Xiao Si remembered and lowered his voice, “Young Master’s plan is going to be brought forward.”
“Advance?”
Shopkeeper Wei was shocked, “Why?”
“For …….”
Before he finished his words, he saw Song Wan Yue walking over, Xiao Si immediately stopped talking and trotted to meet him, “Young master is inside the house, I’ll go bring you herbal tea right away.”
When Song Wan Yue walked over, Xiao Si lifted his chin towards her back, Wei’s boss made it clear that the young master was doing it for Miss Song, but ……
Xiao Si walked back to his side and
“Don’t think about it, we should have thought of it from the day the young master insisted on being betrothed to Miss Song.”
……
“Why did you come back so soon?”
Inside the house, Gu Yi brought her own tea to her, Song Wan Yue didn’t care, after accompanying Qi Ying for so long, she was really thirsty and picked up the tea and took a few sips.
“She was badly injured, she didn’t talk for long before she got tired, so I came back.”
“What was said?”
Song Wan Yue smiled wryly, “Said about my big brother being in the capital.”
Gu Yi froze, then smiled, “You’re rubbing salt into her wounds at this time, aren’t you afraid that her wounds will never heal.”
“Then don’t get well.”
Song Wangyue said a double entendre.
Xiao Si brought over a pot of herbal tea and placed it on the table and retreated.
Gu Yi took a cup to the cold tea and placed it in front of Song Wan Yue, and tilted the tea in front of her and finished the remaining tea without moving, “The herbs won’t arrive until this afternoon, so why don’t you take this time to practice your writing, so that every time you see your writing Grandfather can’t look straight at it.”
When she thought of how dumbfounded the old man looked when he saw her writing for the first time, Song Wan Yue laughed out loud, “That’s fine.”
Gu Yi got up and laid out the paper, studied and ground it, Song Wan Yue finished her herbal tea and also got up and went over, took a pen and dipped it in the ink and started practicing her writing.
Gu Yi stood at the side and watched, but after a while he couldn’t watch any longer and reached out to hold her hand, teaching her how to write stroke by stroke.
He wrote until almost noon, when he put down the pen and went to the courtyard to eat.
Shortly after eating, Wei’s boss came over and said that the herbs from the pharmacy had arrived, and that the two of them should go over and settle the rest of the silver, so that they could send the herbs to the Gu family.
The two followed behind in the carriage, stopped the carriage when they reached the entrance to Dr. Yao’s compound, lifted the curtain and caught a glimpse of Master Chu standing at the door.
“Master.”
Song Wangyue jumped down from the carriage.
Master Chu looked at her with a slightly cold look in his eyes and turned around, “You come with me!”
Song Wangyue followed.
Gu Yi also wanted to follow, but was stopped by Master Chu, “I want to test her internal strength, you don’t need to follow.”
Gu Yi stood in place, watching worriedly as they walked further and further away.
