Chapter 356 The God of Death was possessed
In the dim morning light, Su Qianqian slightly opened her sleepy eyes and reached out to touch... the empty bed as usual.
As she gradually regained consciousness, she was a little confused by her subconscious action. What was there to figure out? Sleeping in the same bed with Qin Hanzhang makes them look like classmates, so it would be more reliable to say that they are brothers rather than husband and wife.
Su Mu opened the tent and helped her get up, smiling the whole time.
"Today, the wife of the Duke Xuan and Miss Yin are coming to visit us. This is the menu I prepared. Madam, please take a look to see if there is anything missing."
Su Mu took the opportunity when Su Qianqian sat down to have breakfast and handed her a piece of paper.
Su Qianqian was watching when Qin Hanzhang came in from outside with a food box in his hand.
"Why did you bring it up again?" Su Qianqian stood up and saw a little sparkle on Qin Hanzhang's brows. She turned her head to look out the window: "Is it snowing?"
"Yes, it's the first snow in Xijing, and it's just falling now." Qin Hanzhang also looked out the window, then turned around and opened the lunch box.
Su Qianqian saw that there were wontons in the food box. They had thin skin and large fillings. They looked crystal clear and were steaming.
"Eat a bowl of wontons to warm you up in this kind of weather..." Qin Hanzhang didn't say anything else. He placed the bowl of wontons in front of Su Qianqian with his own hands, opened another food box, took out the steamed buns, side dishes and rice porridge, and sat down to eat.
Qin Hanzhang seldom let maids serve him breakfast, perhaps because he was not used to it in the army and always did it himself. Only in Fushou Hall did he follow the rules and be served with the help of maids who washed their hands and served the dishes.
So the maids stood far away at this time and only came to serve when needed.
Su Qianqian ate a wonton, which tasted delicious. She took another wonton with a spoon and handed it to Qin Hanzhang: "You try it too..."
Suddenly I felt that this scene was very familiar...
Qin Hanzhang's expression froze for a moment, but before Su Qianqian felt embarrassed, he had already picked up the food with chopsticks and ate it, then nodded: "Not bad, tell the cook to reward her."
The waiter Yan outside agreed and left.
Although the girls stood still, their eyes were rolling around, passing messages to each other and giggling.
After dinner, Su Qianqian checked Qin Hanzhang's wound. The medicinal herbs planted in the space really worked wonders. Su Qianqian stroked the small scar with her fingers and nodded repeatedly: "He looks good, and he's still so handsome."
Qin Hanzhang's outer shirt fell to his waist, revealing his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and bulging chest and abdominal muscles.
The scars left on his body were all removed by Su Qianqian who took the opportunity to use scar-removing medicine when he was being treated, and now there are only very faint red marks.
The new wound was not obvious on the surface because it was small and deep. Now it has almost completely healed, leaving only a short brown scar.
Qin Hanzhang closed his eyes and gritted his teeth to endure it. Every time he changed the dressing, it was a great mental test. Su Qianqian's restless hands were stirring up the fire everywhere without him realizing it, and then she let him think of a way to put out the fire on his own.
"I saved the life of the Marquis. If I ask you for anything in the future, you must agree to one thing for me."
Su Qianqian suddenly spoke.
"What's the matter?" Qin Hanzhang opened his eyes, turned his back to Su Qianqian and slowly put on his clothes.
"I haven't thought about it yet. I'll talk about it when I think of it. But My Lord, you can't refuse then." Su Qianqian said with her head tilted.
"Okay." Qin Hanzhang agreed.
"Sister is coming to the mansion today. If there is a chance, I will think of a way to remind her... and the antidote is due in four days. Please take a letter back to Duke Xuan today to calm him down first."
Qin Hanzhang nodded.
"Don't think that just because the wound has healed on the surface, you don't know how to take care of your body. Although the poison has been cured, the previous bleeding also damaged your vitality. You still need to rest and recuperate.
I have already written a prescription and asked Shi Yan to prepare the medicine. You must take it on time and have a good rest. ”
Qin Hanzhang nodded again.
[Why are you so well behaved?] Was the once ferocious god of death possessed by another spirit? 】
Su Qianqian was confused, so she asked Su Mu to come in and clean up. She changed her clothes and prepared to receive Su Xinxin and Yin Yueniang.
Qin Hanzhang got up and went to the study. The reason he asked for leave was that he had some things to arrange at home.
Yin Yueniang and Su Xinxin entered the mansion one after another, each bringing their children with them. Because it was the first time that it snowed in Xijing this winter, the children were particularly excited. After getting off the warm sedan chair, they refused to go into the room and insisted on playing in the snow for a while.
The six-year-old Zhu Youcheng has already begun to learn. He protects his sister and Baoyun like a little adult, reminding them not to play and fall.
You Huan is honest and kind by nature, and always gives in to Bao Yun. Bao Yun is lively and active, and the two sisters gather together and whisper a few words, secretly making snowballs to hit You Cheng together...
Su Qianqian looked at the two cute children, and then at Su Xinxin's doting expression, which made her more determined.
After asking the wet nurse and the maids to look after the child, the three of them went into the room and sat down to chat.
"The news that Censor He divorced his wife spread throughout Xijing City. Some said that Tan was a jinx and was trying to stab her husband when he was down, while others said that Censor He was eager to get back on his feet and was using his wife as a stepping stone.
In short, He Liansheng's reputation plummeted, and court officials would avoid He's mansion when passing by, for fear of being contaminated by bad luck. ”
Yin Yue Niang took a sip of osmanthus drink and started talking about gossip about Censor He.
"It's obvious that Tan is a person who only follows her husband's lead. It's a pity that she met the wrong person and became obsessed with him, wasting half her life in vain."
Su Xinxin shook her head and grabbed a few melon seeds to eat.
"But since Tan is not dead, he must have found a way to survive. The Jiangnan Tan family is no pushover. This is not only a slap in the face of Tan, but also a slap in the face of the entire Tan family. I'm afraid He will have to give an explanation."
Yin Yueniang continued.
Su Qianqian thought of the letter sent by Tan, and wondered if it was related to this matter? What does it have to do with her?
"I heard that the court was discussing new policies again, and Prime Minister Xue was once again favored by the emperor. He went straight to the imperial study after the court session. Even the two daughters of the Xue family have been traveling frequently between the various mansions recently. No one dared to say anything. It is said that they were also trying to help Prime Minister Xue contact the aristocratic families in Jiangnan."
Su Xinxin thought about this incident and felt that it might be related to the Tan family.
"Speaking of this, isn't your younger aunt's arranged marriage to the Jiangnan Tan family? She does have some connection with this Tan family."
Yin Yue Niang said with a smile.
"You are well-informed. That's right. The day before yesterday, the second son of the head of the Tan family was chosen. He doesn't have to inherit the position of the head of the family. He is also good-looking. Fortunately, the two of them are very like-minded. They both like to sleep and eat."
Su Xinxin couldn't help laughing as she spoke.
"Zhu Jiayi is actually engaged?" Su Qianqian was a little surprised. In this case, if something happened to Duke Xuan's Mansion, Zhu Jiayi would be able to escape.
"Yes, my father-in-law suddenly mentioned this matter one day, and within two days, the people came. After they met, they were both very satisfied, so this matter was settled. In a few days, the gifts will be exchanged, and the wedding date is set for February."
Su Xinxin said nonchalantly that Zhu Jiayi's dowry would not be taken from the public purse, as it was already prepared by her mother-in-law, and she only had to prepare some items.
"Sister, can you still bear the hard work all day?" Su Qianqian suddenly asked.
