Chapter 24 The ground is the bed, the sky is the quilt
Xu thought that if she gave the prescription to Jiang and ignored it, nothing would happen. However, she underestimated the calculations of these people.
At the end of the You hour, Ouyang Hui actually came to Hejinyuan.
This was the second time that Xu had seen her elder brother Ouyang Hui in Hejinyuan after she married Ouyang Jin.
Seeing Xu holding the chubby baby Ouyang Mingli, Ouyang Hui pleaded in a very sincere tone: "Sister-in-law, it was your sister-in-law who spoke incorrectly today. She was anxious and confused. I apologize to you here. Please forgive me."
Looking at this somewhat pretentious elder brother, Xu frowned slightly and responded calmly, "Brother, what you said is serious. It's not wrong for my sister-in-law to worry about her own children. There is no need to apologize. Master, you should accompany my elder brother well. I will take my leave now."
Seeing Xu about to leave, Ouyang Hui became anxious and hurriedly stopped her, saying, "Sister-in-law, please stay."
"Brother, do you have anything else to say?"
"Sister-in-law, I came here this time to ask you for medicine."
When it comes to seeking medicine, Xu Shi understood that this is the intention of taking her snow lotus.
Although she had some guesses, Xu remained calm and responded, "Brother, our second branch is not as wealthy as your first branch. We don't have any precious medicinal herbs in this courtyard. Are you kidding us?"
Listening to what Xu said, Ouyang Hui cursed Jiang in his heart. If she hadn't been talking nonsense, how could things be like this now?
But no matter what, the most important thing now is to ask for medicine, so he said frankly: "Sister-in-law, to be honest, I went to Huichuntang to get the medicine prescribed by Doctor Zhang, but the snow lotus is out today. I went to many pharmacies but couldn't find it."
At this point, Ouyang Hui looked at Xu, whose expression remained unchanged, and he felt a little undecided. He gritted his teeth and continued, "Brother, remember that my sister-in-law got a snow lotus last month, so I came to ask my sister-in-law to give it up and save my daughter."
Snow Lotus
One
You're quite arrogant.
"Snow Lotus," Mrs. Xu muttered to herself, then suddenly realized, "I got a snow lotus last month, but my mother happened to need it a few days ago, so I sent it back."
Hearing this, Ouyang Hui asked in disbelief: "The whole plant was sent back?"
"Yes, isn't the whole snow lotus used as medicine?"
Hearing Xu's question and seeing her puzzled look, Ouyang Hui was almost furious.
Just as Ouyang Hui was trying hard to suppress his anger, Xu spoke again: "If the whole plant is not used as medicine, I will go back and ask. If there is any at home, I will bring it back and send it to Zhaohui Courtyard immediately."
"Okay, sister-in-law, go and come back quickly."
Watching Xu hand the chubby little nephew to his second brother and leave with two maids, Ouyang Hui said something to Ouyang Jin and then left Hejinyuan.
Half an hour later, Xu entered the Chaohui Courtyard with two snow lotus petals. Learning that the old lady was sitting in the hall, she hurried into the hall and handed the small box containing the snow lotus petals to the old lady. "Old lady, there are only two snow lotus petals left at home."
Old Madam Ouyang, who was sitting in the main seat, opened the small box and looked at it. She said with a sullen face, "Why are there only two petals?"
Xu knelt down and replied, "Madam, these two snow lotus petals were obtained by my wife from her parents' home."
"Didn't you get a snow lotus? You're reluctant to use it to save your niece."
"In reply to the old lady, I have explained it to my eldest brother. Some time ago, my mother needed snow lotus as medicine, so I sent it back. Could it be that the old lady wants me to watch her mother suffer from illness?"
When Mrs. Xu mentioned this, Old Lady Ouyang, who was sitting in the main seat, remembered that she had heard that the old lady of the Xu family was unwell a few days ago. She glared at Mrs. Xu, who was kneeling on the ground, and then said, "Okay, the medicine has been delivered, you can go back."
"Yes. My wife will take her leave." After answering, Xu stood up and took three steps back before turning around and walking out...
Thinking about the past, those scenes flashed through Xu Yuzhu's mind one after another.
What happened that day was so strange that Xinyue couldn't find out anything, but until now, Xu Yuzhu still felt that this was because they wanted her snow lotus.
But she still doesn't understand why...
Now that the Ouyang family has become exiled prisoners, her family will also be affected. She just hopes that her family will be safe and sound.
Thinking of the place of exile, Xu Shi no longer wanted to live with the eldest wife. Brother Jin had already given so much to the Ouyang family, and it was time to make plans for the children.
The eldest son is now fifteen years old. This exile has affected both his studies and his marriage.
Fortunately, I haven't found a girl for him yet, otherwise I would have harmed the girl...
Xu looked at the smiling faces and whispered, "The eldest wife is watching. Hurry up and take Luo'er to sit aside. Don't let the eldest wife see you."
"Yes, mother."
The people surrounding Ouyang Feiluo dispersed one by one, and Ouyang Minglou held her and sat at the innermost side. Then the other four brothers and sisters gathered around, just blocking the eldest wife's inquiring gaze.
Xu took out the four fish that she had saved for lunch from her backpack, two for the children and two for the four adults. As for the cold and hard bread, they did not eat it. They planned to pick up some firewood on the way and then get some water to cook it into a paste.
After all this commotion, it was already dark.
A fire had been lit between them and the main room.
Looking at the flickering firelight, Xu took out two mattresses and placed them on the ground for the children to lie down and rest, so that they would be more comfortable.
The six children were very sensible and only occupied half of the space, leaving half a space for Ouyang Jin and the others.
Although it is not big, it is enough to lie down.
For the first time, Ouyang Feiluo lay on the ground as his bed and the sky as his blanket. He opened his eyes and looked at the sky, whispering to himself: "How should I go on?"
Yes, what's the next step?
This question actually also lingers in the minds of everyone in the Ouyang family, but some people like to get something for nothing and act like they are superior.
Little Philo has been here for three days. Although she is not afraid of trouble, she doesn't like trouble either, especially the kind of trouble that is unreasonable, arrogant and domineering. She is afraid that she will not be able to control herself and encourage her brothers to beat people up.
I have to say that Ouyang Feiluo is still a little bad-tempered kid.
In this quiet night, Ouyang Feiluo, who was looking at the night sky with his eyes open, suddenly heard a cooing sound.
Listen carefully, it seems like someone's stomach is singing, maybe they are hungry?
Ouyang Feiluo twisted his little head and looked around, and finally set his target on the young man.
Then, with a thought, a white flour bun appeared in little Philo's hand.
She stretched out her hand and gently placed the white flour bun next to her brother Ouyang Mingli's mouth.
At this time, Ouyang Mingli was hypnotizing himself while enduring hunger.
Suddenly, he felt something beside his mouth and opened his eyes quickly, just in time to meet little Philo's big, blinking eyes.
The next second, his eyes moved down and he actually saw a white flour bun placed next to his mouth, and the hand holding the white flour bun happened to be his sister's little hand.
Ouyang Mingli was moved. He took it, split it in two, and handed the other half to her.
