When Meng Sui was interrupted by Shen Xi's words, he also noticed that he seemed to be a little unhappy, but he didn't know where he had annoyed him, so he stopped talking and asked instead: "Okay, let's not talk, what about you guys?" , I came to the county no matter what.”

After Meng Sui's reminder, Shen Xi remembered their purpose of coming to the county seat, pointed to the big guy in the car and said, "Here, let's sell it."

Meng Sui has never seen Zhoudu's mule cart since he came here, and when he was pushed onto the mule cart just now, his eyes just went dark, and he didn't quite see what was loaded on the mule cart, Shen Xi would point it out, Instantly see clearly.

Startled, he quickly hid behind Zhou Du: "Mom, where did this thing come from?"

Zhou Du glanced at Meng Sui who was hiding behind him, and said calmly, "I hit you."

"You hit me?!" Meng Sui raised his eyebrows and raised his tone several degrees, with a look of complete disbelief.

He admitted that Zhou Du was tall and possessed a lot of strength in his body, but Meng Sui would not believe anything he said that he could defeat Xiong Lai alone.

This bear is taller than Zhou Du, and the strength in his body is also difficult for ordinary people to deal with. Even if Zhou Du is a little stronger than ordinary people, he will not be strong enough to confront the bear.

Believe it or not, Zhou Du didn't bother to explain to him, went over to pick up the mule whip on the ox cart, and said to Shen Xi, "Where are you going?"

Zhou Du believed that when Shen Xi went to buy tangerines just now, he didn't necessarily just buy tangerines, so he asked this question.

Shen Xi pointed to the location of the house that the owner of Tangerine pointed out to him, and said: "Let's try our luck at that house first."

Zhou Du looked at the location he was pointing at, saw that it was a very unique courtyard, nodded, and was about to leave the vegetable market with the mule cart.

Seeing their posture, Meng Sui knew they were going to leave, so he hurriedly said, "Let's go now."

"Otherwise," Shen Xi pulled the rope on the mule, turned the mule around, and raised his chin to the black bear on the bullock cart, "Can you buy this thing?"

Meng Sui looked at the black bear on the mule cart, which had already died thoroughly but was still imposing, swallowed, and quickly shook his head like a rattle: "What do I buy this for?"

Shen Xi didn't care much and said: "So now we have to find someone who can buy it."

Tell Meng Sui clearly that they don't have time to catch up with him and have important things to do.

Seeing that they were really going to leave, Meng Sui looked at the direction they pointed just now. It was obvious that they were going to take the bear to that family's house to try their luck. He held down their mule cart and stopped him: "Wait a minute -"

It has been a long time since they came out, and now Meng Sui was still moaning, Zhou Du gradually got a little impatient, raised his eyebrows and said, "Is there anything else?"

Not to mention, Zhou Du's full-on aura was a bit bluffing, and with the black bear on the mule cart who suspected him of killing him, Meng Sui was also a little scared for a while.

His scalp went numb for a moment, facing Zhou Du's unfriendly gaze, he stiffened his head and said, "If you take the bear to that family's house, they will not accept you."

Zhou Du restrained his momentum a little: "How can you see that?"

Meng Sui looked at the family where they were going to try their luck, pursed his lips and said, "The family you are going to is the richest family in our Baoshan County. Since it is the richest man, naturally there are many people who care about it, usually there are many The hunters who hunted wild wild game went to his house to try their luck, let alone you, but the old man was not only picky, but also cautious, and generally would not accept wild goods from outside."

Meng Sui's words were well-founded, Zhou Du nodded in agreement, looked at Shen Xi and said: "It seems that we can only find another family."

Shen Xi didn't want everyone's momentum to fade away after all the hard work, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, if this one doesn't work, find another one, there will always be someone to buy it in the huge Baoshan County."

Li Yu, who was silent all the time, nodded in agreement. This is how selling things are. Sometimes you are lucky enough to meet a generous buyer and sell them all at once. Sometimes you are unlucky and cannot sell them for several days. It takes patience.

They are cheering each other up here, while Meng Sui is like a fly over there, looking for a bad guy atmosphere: "Indeed, if you have to ask one by one, maybe you can find a buyer, but how long can you bears last? I see After two or three days, the taste will be gone, and the price will not be sold at all."

Zhou Du looked at him and said coldly: "It's none of your business if it's dead."

Meng Sui was suddenly stabbed by Zhou Du, and a cold sweat broke out on his back. After thinking about it, what he just said was indeed too hateful, so he remedied it: "Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to curse you for not being able to sell."

Shen Xi answered, "Then what do you mean?"

Meng Sui explained: "What I mean is, I can sell this bear for you. It just so happens that my family has some connections with theirs. Although it may not be successful, I will not be chased away by their servants regardless of whether I succeed or not. Come out is not."

Shen Xi hesitated for a while, and asked in doubt: "You will be so kind?"

Meng Sui coughed, straightened the clothes in front of him pretendingly, and said noblely: "Of course, since Dr. Shen pointed out my face that hasn't healed for many years, I should help you."

Shen Xi doubted: "Really?"

Meng Jui looked into his eyes and affirmed without hesitation: "Of course."

If someone is willing to help, Zhou Du and the others will naturally not refuse, Meng Sui's expression is much kinder now.

Even Li Yu, who had not spoken all the time, complimented Meng Sui after seeing Meng Sui's willingness to help: "This young man is really a good man."

Meng Sui is a good-natured person, when he heard someone complimenting him, he wanted to put his tail up in the sky, he immediately patted his chest and said: "You all just wait for the good news from me."

Seeing that he had secured the ticket, Zhou Du, who had always been cold-faced, softened his face and said, "Sell it, and treat you to dinner."

It was a rare time for Zhou Du to be so kind to others, as soon as he said that he wanted to invite Meng Sui to dinner, Meng Sui felt a little strange and opened his mouth to agree.

It's just that when he opened his mouth, the words changed as soon as they reached his lips: "Forget about eating."

"It's so good..." Seeing that he didn't even want a reward, Shen Xi and Zhou Du were about to give him a high look.

Unexpectedly, Meng Jui spoke again: "But I happen to have something to trouble you right now."

Immediately, Zhou Du and Shen Xi withdrew their high looking eyes at him at the same time, just say, if there is nothing to do, you can go to the Three Treasures Hall, if Meng Sui has nothing to do, why bother with them for so long, and kindly want to help them sell bears .

Zhou Du asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's not a big deal," Meng Sui looked directly at Shen Xi, and murmured, "It's not that my wife is pregnant. These days, she has a poor appetite every day, and even a healthy person has lost weight. Many cooks don’t like her taste, I remember you are also good at cooking, why don’t you help me make some meals suitable for pregnant women, try it.”

When Shen Xi heard that this was really not a difficult task, it was a trivial matter compared to Meng Sui helping them sell bears, so it was okay to agree, but now he is not alone and cannot make decisions privately, so he looked up at Zhou cross to look.

Zhou Du had no objection, seeing Shen Xi coming to ask him, he replied softly: "Your own affairs, you decide for yourself, don't ask me, just don't force yourself."

Shen Xi's eyes immediately bent down, boasting: "Zhou Du, you are so kind."

If it wasn't for being outside now, he would want to step up and kiss Zhou Du.

Zhou Du stretched out his hand and rubbed his head: "You are fine too."

Meng Sui: "..."

Li Yu: "..."

Meng Sui really didn't want to stand here and watch them get bored, so he interrupted them with a cough: "Don't bother, please agree to a good thing, my wife is still hungry."

Shen Xi came back to his senses: "Yes, why don't you agree, but let me put the ugly words first, what I cook may not be in line with your wife's taste, if I cook it and she won't eat it, you can't blame me."

Of course, Meng Sui is clear about this reason, he thinks the same as Shen Xi and the others, it would be good to try his luck to get his wife to eat, if not, he can only think of other ways, nodded and said: "That's natural. "

After the four of them made up their minds, they tidied up, led the mule cart out of the market, and followed Meng Sui towards his so-called relative's house.

It's just that the road is getting worse and worse.

It doesn't look like they are going to the courtyard, but rather...

Zhou Du raised his eyes and saw a majestic mansion at the end of the road. In front of the mansion stood a few guards in soap clothes with knives.

Without explaining, Zhou Du also guessed what this place was.

Sure enough, after Meng Sui brought them to the county government office, they entered directly through a side door next to the county government office. The guards at the side door only took one look at them and let them go.

After the three of Zhou Du entered the county government office, Shen Xi said in surprise: "Your relatives are the county lords."

"That's right," Meng Sui nodded, "The county magistrate of Baoshan County is my father's senior brother. The family has been in constant contact over the years. I call him uncle. He was also happy when he learned that my wife was pregnant, so he let We raise babies at the county government with peace of mind."

"Not bad, not bad." Shen Xi is very envious of this kind of family who has a wide network of contacts, and there are people to help him everywhere, unlike their family where he and his little uncle are the only two.

The county government office is very large, and apart from the Three Provinces Hall, the inner houses are also divided into multiple courtyards, and Meng Sui and his family are arranged in a courtyard in the southwest corner.

The yard was neither big nor small, it was more than enough to accommodate the two of them and a few servants.

It may be considered that Mrs. Meng Sui is a pregnant woman, and there is an independent small kitchen in the courtyard for the convenience of eating.

The kitchen is full of all kinds of fresh vegetables. It is winter and not summer, and it is not easy to buy so many fresh vegetables. It can be seen that Meng Sui spent a lot of money for his wife.

After Shen Xi had seen the kitchen, he already had a charter for cooking in his heart. Adhering to a serious and responsible attitude, he asked Meng Sui again: "Can you let me meet your wife, just in the living room, everyone together, we Just ask a few words."

"No problem." After all, Daqing is not the former dynasty, and there is no rule that the inner court cannot see outside men. As long as they are not getting along in private, no one will gossip.

Meng Sui went to the guest room to help his wife out. Mrs. Meng was bright and generous, her words and deeds were graceful, her lower abdomen was slightly bulged, she was really a rare beauty despite her emaciated body, no wonder Meng Sui's baby into this.

After Chen Xi asked Mrs. Meng a few words about her food preferences, she had an idea, and was about to go to the kitchen to cook.

Li Yu, who had been looking at Mrs. Meng's lower abdomen from the moment she approached the door, suddenly said to Meng Sui, "Can...can you let me feel Mrs. Zun's pulse?"

Zhou Du and Shen Xi stopped when they were about to leave, and looked at Li Yu curiously.

They also knew that Li Yu was a person who wouldn't meddle in other people's business, so he must have discovered something by opening his mouth.

Meng Sui frowned slightly, and asked Li Yu, "Who are you?"

Li Yu was timid, and when Meng Sui questioned him, he retracted his head.

Zhou Du helped him and said, "Doctor Shen's apprentice, who do you think is it?"

Meng Sui's eyes lit up when he heard the word Dr. Shen, and when he heard Zhou Du say that he is Dr. Shen's apprentice, his face immediately changed, and he said with a smile, "Do it, do it, Doctor Shen's medical skills are obvious to all. I believe his apprentices will not go anywhere."

Li Yu looked at Meng Sui who changed his face very quickly, and then at Zhoudu Shenxi.

Zhou Du didn't say anything but nodded to him, trusting him.

Shen Xi patted him on the back and encouraged him: "Go, don't be afraid."

Li Yu took a deep breath, and then boldly walked towards Mrs. Meng step by step.

Mrs. Meng saw that Li Yu was not very old. Although she knew that Dr. Shen had cured her husband's face with superb medical skills, she had no confidence in the young man who was about her age. Go, don't take it to heart.

Li Yu was relieved by Mrs. Meng's generous attitude. He put his fingers on Mrs. Meng's wrist for a while, then frowned.

Holding a cup of tea, Meng Sui saw him frowning and asked, "Why, is there something wrong with my wife's health?"

"No," Li Yu shook his head, "It's just that you have to pay more attention to Mrs. Zun's body in the future, and ask the doctor to check her pulse frequently. She is not pregnant with a single child, but with twins."

Meng Sui just took a sip of tea, then spit it out immediately, stood up from the chair, and asked again: "What did you say?"

Li Yu shrank his neck, thinking that Zhou Du and Shen Xi were behind him to rely on, and raised his neck again: "I said that Madam is pregnant with twins!"

"But the doctor didn't say that before." After Madam Meng withdrew her hand, she was also surprised, and then she didn't believe it.

Li Yu said in a deep voice: "Previously, it was very likely that the month was too young to be diagnosed. Now you can ask an experienced doctor to have a look. Your belly bulge is too abnormal."

Li Yu has been observing Mrs. Meng since she came out. It stands to reason that she is slender and pregnant for the first time, so her pregnant belly should not be visible, but Mrs. Meng's lower abdomen has been revealed now, and it is quite round, obviously not It's too normal, that's why he wanted to feel the pulse of Mrs. Meng.

After Li Yu finished speaking, everyone looked at Mrs. Meng's pregnant belly in unison. She was already thin, which would make her belly look like a small watermelon.

Madam Meng uncomfortably covered her belly with her sleeves, and everyone looked away.

"Please," Meng Sui slapped the table in the end, and said decisively, "Doctor, please ask for two more."

A servant quickly went to the city and invited two experienced doctors back. After they checked Mrs. Meng's pulse carefully, they all came to the same conclusion as Li Yu said, that they were indeed twins.

After Meng Sui heard the news, he was stunned, not knowing whether to be happy or worried.

The happy event of other people's family is not the happy event of his own family. After the two doctors diagnosed that Li Yu was not wrong, he took Shen Xi to the kitchen. Whether they were happy or worried, it had nothing to do with him. .

Considering Mrs. Meng's taste, Shen Xi made three simple dishes, one egg and vinegar anti-vomiting soup, one Atractylodes crucian carp porridge, and one boiled asparagus. The kind of light that doesn't smell.

After serving it on the table, Mrs. Meng first drank a bowl of egg vinegar anti-vomiting soup, and then picked up a chopstick of boiled asparagus. After she didn't feel like vomiting, she finally tried to eat some crucian carp. Porridge.

One bite, two bites, three bites, without stopping.

Meng Sui's breathing was so light that she didn't dare to disturb her from eating, for fear that she would be breathing heavily, so she put down the bowl again and said, "I don't have any appetite, so I don't want to eat."

Mrs. Meng may have lost her appetite for a long time. After eating less than half a bowl of porridge, she put down the bowl and stopped eating.

Everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief, how can a pregnant person survive without eating, not to mention that Mrs. Meng is still pregnant with twins, so she needs to eat to nourish herself.

It's good to be able to eat.

A big stone fell to the ground in Meng Sui's heart, and he smiled happily at Zhou Du and the others: "I promised you, I will definitely take care of it for you, and leave the mule cart here today, and come back after I finish the matter." Looking for you."

Zhou Du and the others naturally didn't have any objections, they came out so well, it was already past noon, afraid that Shen Mu would be worried, left the address of the inn, and then returned.

It got dark late in winter, and when we returned to the inn, the sky was a bit dark.

Shen Mu has already returned to the inn, and now she is sitting alone on the pile of fabrics he bought and the floor full of beads, holding a needle and thread, sewing clothes in a decent manner.

Not to mention that Shenxi and Li Yu were surprised when they saw this scene, even Zhou Du couldn't help being surprised when he saw the way the needle was moving like flying.

"Little uncle, what are you doing? How did you make the room such a mess?"

Shen Xi put down the things in his hands, and hurried forward to tidy them up.

Hearing the voice, Shen Mu raised her head, the corners of her eyes were a little red, as if she had cried, and smiled at them, "You guys are back."

Then he waved his hand to Shen Xi who was about to clean up: "Don't clean up, don't clean up, once you clean up, I won't be able to find some things, let me clean up after I finish it."

Maybe he was too anxious to speak, and Shen Mu coughed uncontrollably after speaking.

"Master, it's cold on the ground, get up quickly." Hearing Shen Mu's cough, Li Yu hurried over to help Shen Mu up.

Shen Mu immediately refused again: "No, I still have a few stitches to finish, so don't bother me, if I forget how to move the stitches, I'll be in trouble."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and quickly sewed the clothes in his hands with beads in one hand and needlework in the other.

Shen Xi squatted beside Shen Mu and asked softly: "Little uncle, you are well, what kind of clothes are you doing?"

Shen Mu quickly put away the sewing of the clothes in her hands, spread out the clothes, and showed them to everyone.

A dark blue dress with exquisite workmanship and style appeared in the eyes of everyone, exquisite and dazzling.

Shen Mu threw the clothes to Shen Xi: "I made them for you, when I grow up, I won't wear those lifeless clothes on you anymore."

"Ah?!" Shen Xi hugged the clothes in his arms, both surprised and at a loss.

"Ah what," Shen Mu coughed again, "Take it back to your room and wear it, I also bought some other fabrics, and I'll make you a few more later."

Holding the clothes, Shen Xi said distressedly: "Just go to the shop and buy it, why bother to make it for me yourself, little uncle."

Shen Mu glanced at Shen Xi, the redness at the end of his eyes was even more conspicuous, he smiled lightly and said: "Little uncle has no money, so he can only think of this stupid idea."

Although Shen Mu was talking with a smile, Zhou Du always felt that there was a bit of sadness in his smile, and he couldn't guess why he was sad. Based on what he said, he could only think that it was due to lack of money.

I made up my mind to earn money urgently.

"It's okay, I can wear whatever I want." Shen Xi didn't care about this, he only cared about his little uncle, when he heard Shen Mu coughing, he immediately stood up, "I'll go to the pharmacy to get some medicine and come back."

"No need," Shen Mu stood up from the ground to stop him, "It's not the wind and cold, it's because I sat on the ground for too long and was thirsty."

Zhou Du happened to be standing by the tea table, and poured a glass of water immediately after hearing this.

Shen Mu took it, drank all the water in the teacup, and said relaxedly, "It's comfortable now."

He asked again: "You have been outside for so long, have you eaten?"

"Not yet," Shen Xi shook his head, and asked, "How about you, little uncle?"

"Not yet," Shen Mu waved his hand, "But I don't have much appetite, so I won't eat, you guys go."

Shen Xi looked closely at Shen Mu's obviously abnormal eyes, and asked him: "Did something happen?"

"What could happen to me?" Shen Mu smiled and rubbed his eyes, "It's probably because the eyes made for your clothes are a little uncomfortable. After all, it's because I'm old and useless."

Shen Xi immediately said: "No, no, little uncle, you are only in your early twenties, how old are you?"

Shen Mu patted him on the head: "They are all middle-aged people in their thirties, how young are they?"

Li Yu also complimented him: "Master is very young. If you don't mention your age, you will think you are a young man from some family."

Zhou Du also said: "Generally, people who say they are old are still young. Old people like me never feel that they are old. I think I am quite young and quite useful."

Zhou Du usually doesn't talk much, let alone tell jokes, but now he's telling jokes in a serious way, and it's quite funny with sudden bursts.

Shen Mu couldn't help laughing, and drove them away: "Okay, don't stand here with me, go eat, I'm tired, I want to take a rest."

After everyone saw that there was really no abnormality on his face, they went out of the room to eat with peace of mind.

Zhou Du walked last, and stopped Shen Mu before he closed the door, as if promising but also affirming: "Whether it's about money or other things, as long as I can do it, I will do my best, you and Shen Xi, I am my family."

Shen Mu was taken aback when he heard his promise, and then nodded to him, expressing his understanding.

Zhou Du didn't say anything, he took back the door that was about to close, and he, who was not very good at comforting others, comforted others: "Don't force yourself to smile, it's okay to let off steam once in a while."

After Zhou Du left, Shen Mu lay on the bed alone, holding the handkerchief in his hand, recalling the news he heard today.

Starting from August, Weiyuan General Qin Yi will return to the court from the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, and will be crowned Duke of Yipin Town.

He put it on the tip of his heart, worried about him for ten years, and finally came back safely, with his achievements and fame.

But what did it matter to him?

Qin Yi is Qin Yi, and peace is peace.

These are completely two people, and his peace has long since died in that late autumn, and will never come back again.

Because, the general named Qin Yi has already married a wife.

And he was just a shameless person who ruined other people's marriage, and he was still thinking about those nasty things that ruined other people's marriage.

Shen Mu closed her eyes, thinking that Zhou Du said that it's okay to vent occasionally, as if she had some courage, a few crystal tears fell silently from the corners of her eyes.

Tears streaked across the blush at the end of the eyes, melted into the temples, and then fell from the temples into the dark pillow, leaving traces of dizziness.

Shen Mu seemed to think it was a shame to cry at such an age, he pulled the quilt over and covered his head firmly.

The Adam's apple was throbbing, and all the whimpers were hidden in the dark quilt along with the tears.

The author has something to say: Ping An: I don’t have one, I don’t have a wife, that bastard is spreading rumors about labor and capital.
