MTL - The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister-Chapter 61
Chapter 61
Linglan rubbed Wen Ning's body to cool down, but her body temperature still rose, not only her forehead, but her whole body was unbearably hot, and her mouth was humming with discomfort.
While she was burning with anxiety, someone knocked on the door.
It turned out to be the little monk guarding the backyard, and beside him was an elder carrying a medicine box.
"The little monk just remembered that among the pilgrims who went to the mountain to live for a while today, there is a doctor. I wonder if the girl from your house can let him have a look."
It was urgent, how could Linglan say no, she immediately thanked the little novice and invited the doctor into the room.
The doctor took Wen Ning's pulse, prescribed some medicines, and said that he lived in the courtyard next door, and if he still felt unwell, he could directly knock on the door.
Not only that, the doctor actually brought a medicine bag with him, and prescribed medicine for Linglan on the spot.
Linglan burst into tears of gratitude, and hurriedly went to decoct the medicine after seeing her off.
Wen Ning was in a daze, and her body was heavy as well. She only had a vague impression of what happened. She remembered that a doctor came to see her, and she remembered that Linglan took medicine to feed her after a while.
After she fell asleep again, she sweated a lot in the daze. When she woke up, she felt refreshed and her body was light.
"Girl, we are really lucky this time." Linglan prepared bath water for Wen Ning, and sighed while wiping her back, "It must be that we worshiped the Bodhisattva sincerely this time, otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that there is a doctor living next door?" Woolen cloth."
The doctor came to see him again in the morning, and said that there is no serious problem, don't blow the wind for a few days, and he will be fine after taking those medicines.
Wen Ning nodded: "Then when the incense is offered tomorrow, I will thank the Bodhisattva, and then I beg the Bodhisattva to bless the business of the wine shop with prosperity and wealth."
Linglan burst out laughing, wondering why her girl has become a little money fanatic, thinking about the wine shop all the time.
Wen Ning is thinking about the winery, and at the winery, Wen Ning is also thinking about it.
At three o'clock, Wen Ning had just dried her hair when Wen Qi came.
Wen Qi's position in the Ministry of War is not considered an important position. If he has something to say hello to his colleagues, it doesn't matter if he retreats early or late, but on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, the first day of the new year's duty, he worked hard for the sake of the winery. I took a day off and waited for Wen Ning in the winery for a day.
But she didn't go, not even the messenger. When she returned home, she heard passers-by say that there seemed to be an accident on the mountain road, and the more she thought about it when she went back, the more wrong it became. Today, she took another day off and went up the mountain to find Wen Ning.
Seeing her wearing loose clothes, basking in the sun happily in the yard, she was relieved.
"Ah Ning, you are getting more and more outrageous. Since you are not going to the winery, why don't you send someone to the winery to tell me? It makes me wait for you all day." Wen Qi came in and locked the courtyard door.
This door is not outrageous. Although it is in a temple, there are many outsiders. Wen Ning was born delicate and pretty, lying lazily in the yard with her hair covered, if someone looks at her...
Well, he didn't think it was inappropriate, he just felt that his sister's advantage was taken by others.
"Second brother, why are you here?" Wen Ning was very surprised, "Linglan went out to make medicine, so the door was just ajar."
"What do you think?" Wen Qi looked at her helplessly.
Wen Ning blinked, stood up and beckoned him to sit down, just in time Linglan made a pot of tea before leaving, and she hurriedly poured a cup for Wen Qi.
Wen Qi sat down with his robe lifted, seeing Wen Ning's attentive appearance, raised his eyebrows, and stared at her leisurely.
Wen Ning knew she couldn't hide, coughed lightly, and said the words she had thought up before.
Said it was "rhetoric", but she didn't hide anything. After thinking about it, she really couldn't think of any excuse to explain that she didn't go to the winery on the eighth day of the eighth day, and she didn't give him a message for a whole day on the ninth day.
It is better to tell the truth than to try to tell one lie and make countless lies.
"The prince's horse is also startled?" Wen Qi asked in surprise.
Wen Ning nodded. She also asked Linglan later that Pei You had indeed rushed straight down at that time. If it wasn't because she was startled, what else could be the reason?
"I don't know if there is a problem with the feed. His horse and I are a little crazy." Wen Ning said, "I fell ill after I came back, so I didn't find anyone to tell you, and I didn't have time to investigate this matter. Mr. Pei should check it faster than me."
His life is worth more than hers. If there is anything wrong, he would have found out long ago.
"How's the wine shop?" Wen Ning asked anxiously.
"With your second brother here, of course everything will go well." Wen Qi told the general situation of the distillery, "Duan Rushuang recommended a gentleman who came from the Chen family and has outstanding abilities. I met him in the past two days. On both sides, it is indeed very good. From now on, I plan to hand over the management of the winery to him, and I only care about the quality of the wine."
This Duan Rushuang and Wen Ning mentioned, after all, Wen Qi doesn't know business and has an official position, so it is impossible to devote all his energy to the winery, so it is better to hire a reliable and experienced person to manage it.
I just didn't expect it to be done so quickly.
"Did you directly communicate with sister Rushuang?" Wen Ning grasped the key point.
Wen Qi raised his eyebrows helplessly: "You have come to live on this mountain, and we still send letters through you. The day lily should be cold. Don't worry, I sent her the letters in your name, no Damage her boudoir reputation."
Wen Ning nodded reassuringly. Although Duan Rushuang may not mind this, but she is in a bad situation, and she can no longer be entangled in gossip.
"You just rest on this mountain for a while, you don't need to worry about the winery, I will send a letter to tell you about anything..."
"Wait." Wen Ning suddenly remembered something, stepped on her shoes and ran into the house, and when she came out, she happily handed the two thousand taels of silver to Wen Qi, "Here, add more investment!"
Wen Qi looked at the stack of banknotes in surprise, scanning Wen Ning and the denominations on the banknotes.
Wen Ning has already prepared an explanation for the source of the silver. It is nothing more than Pei You ruining her fox fur, and thanking her for taking care of her all night, in return for him.
I don't want Wen Qi to be surprised, his eyes turned calm, and he didn't ask her where the silver came from, but took a sip of tea and said: "Ah Ning, when are you willing to hide those things from you? Tell the second brother?"
Wen Ning was stunned for a moment.
She knew that Wen Qi was not Wen Lan, and he was much smarter than her elder brother. He should have been able to figure out the clues of the farce-like catching of a son-in-law before, but she didn't tell if he didn't ask.
Later, he took out such a large sum of money and said to open a wine shop with him, but he still didn't ask, and she still didn't say anything.
She also said that Wen Qi's temper was more free and easy than she thought, and he was waiting for her here.
Wen Ning's hair was loose, and she lowered her eyes slightly, her eyelashes falling on her white lower eyelids. Wen Qi's words came too suddenly, she hadn't rehearsed the answer beforehand, so she didn't know how to answer for a while, so she just subconsciously tightened the sachet by her side.
This small movement, of course, also fell into Wen Qi's eyes.
His younger sister is not a good liar, and she can't do anything wrong. When she is a little nervous, she will grab the sachet hanging on her waist.
It has been like this since childhood.
She herself didn't realize that she had this habit.
Wen Qi took a sip of tea.
His words are not asking for guilt.
It's just that he knew that she didn't really want to catch Pei You, nor did she really love Pei You, but he really couldn't figure out why she did that, and he couldn't figure out why the younger sister who had always been content in the boudoir, got up If you want to do business, you can still take out so much money one by one.
The sudden acquaintance and inexplicable trust between her and Duan Rushuang are also suspicious, and the two thousand taels...
He could guess that he had something to do with that Prince Pei, but all the things between her and Prince Pei were puzzling to him.
Wen Ning has something to hide from him, and it is still a big deal.
Wen Ning's palms were sweating, she really didn't know how to tell Wen Qi about the absurd rebirth; she really didn't want to tell anyone about the embarrassing past life, and she was still such a close person.
Wen Ning couldn't help frowning, biting her lip.
Even though Ben was still ill, his complexion was even worse now, and his lips turned white from being bitten.
Wen Qi sighed seeing her in such a predicament.
"It's fine if Ah Ning doesn't want to talk about it." Wen Qi touched her head, "Second brother is just worried that you have something important to hide from us, and it's too hard to carry it by yourself."
"Ah Ning, before she died, mother entrusted you to father, and also to elder brother and me. No matter what happens, you have to believe in me, elder brother and father. We are a family, and we must stand by your side." , planned for you."
Wen Ning's eyes turned red when she said this.
How could she not know... It was because they were so nice that the days after her marriage seemed so unbearable, and it was why the family broke up and died that made her mentally and emotionally devastated.
"Okay, you have a good rest, the second brother will come to see you some other day."
After Wen Qi left, Wen Ning lay in the yard, sighing after another.
She hasn't deliberately thought about the things in her previous life for a while, and she even had a high fever yesterday. In the chaos, she didn't even have those **** dreams in her previous life, but Wen Qi's words made her have to think about it again.
After all, her strength alone is meager, and she doesn't know what she can do.
She's afraid, she'll have to find some more help.
After thinking deeply, she suddenly remembered that today is the tenth day of the lunar new year.
The tenth day of the first lunar month in the fifteenth year of Jiahe seems to be a big day. What happened?
Wen Ning didn't spend too much time thinking about it. She was more focused on the visit of the Prince of Ryukyu half a year later. In order to prevent that Chang Fei from coming into trouble, in the past six months, besides earning more money, who else can she ask for help?
But in the evening, when she took Linglan for a walk in the back mountain, someone reminded her what day it is today.
Shen Jin appeared in front of her with a stern expression in a silver helmet.
Wen Ning remembered immediately the moment she saw him.
The tenth day of the first month of the fifteenth year of Jiahe was the day of her and Shen Jin's wedding.
