"Joe, thank you, Miss Xu." Qiao Biying put down the tea and raised his hand to give a grateful gift to Xu Ming.
Even though his wife was not poisoned, but he escaped from the Palace this time, it is difficult to ensure that the emperor will not anger his wife and children. It would be better if he could get the promise of the town government.
"Doctor Qiao doesn't need to thank." Xu Mingyi said, "it's just that it's not suitable for doctor Qiao to meet Mr. and Mrs. Qiao in a short time. We need to avoid the limelight first -"
There is no need to think about it. It can be seen that the emperor will make people pay close attention to the Qiao family's mother and son.
Just keep an eye on it, and if there is any action against Qiao's mother and son, she will not stand idly by.
Joe must nodded. "Yes, I understand."
Meeting at this time is destined to cause trouble for his wife and children and for those who save him.
Seeing that his face was weak, Xu Mingyi said, "doctor Qiao, let's have a rest here and have some tea and rice. Later, I'll come with a friend to ask doctor Qiao about old things."
Hearing the word "old things", Qiao Biying was not surprised. After a moment of silence, he said with a bitter smile: "thank you, miss, for taking the trouble to arrange - but Qiao is no longer a great doctor. There is no need to mention this old name."
Xu Mingyi got up from his chair and said, "call him Doctor Qiao."
Always have a name.
Dr. Joe
Joe Bing's half hung eyes have too many complex emotions.
The doctor is a doctor who can cure the sick and save people, but what he has done is no longer worthy of this title.
"Since Dr. Qiao has an old disease, he must also know what medicine to take. Someone will come to take food later. Then Dr. Qiao can write a prescription for him."
Whatever else, it's very difficult to keep this life. When you leave the palace, you should take care of your body.
Qiao Biying thanked the girl again.
Xu Mingyi took ah Zhu and left the dark room.
"Will Miss Xu go upstairs and wait for my childe to come?" Shouming asked softly as he led people out of the back hall.
Xu Mingyi raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the front hall. The lights in the lobby and the second floor had been turned off.
When she went upstairs at this time, she was bound to have some trouble. The closed teahouse suddenly turned on lights, for fear that it would attract attention, and the city was not destined to be too calm tonight.
"Just sit here." she walked towards a pavilion in the backyard.
A paper lantern hung under the eaves of the pavilion, casting a gentle orange light. The roses climbing on the flower rack outside the pavilion bloomed quietly in the night, with a faint aroma floating with the gentle night wind.
Shouming made a pot of tea and sent it over with some snacks and fruits.
As soon as he returned to the back hall with a tray, he saw a man in short brown waiting there and said to him, "Shou Ming, someone knocked at the door and said he knew you and asked you to see him."
While talking, the man took a look at the direction of the Pavilion - now he thinks it's good to chop firewood in the teahouse. Even when Xu girl comes, he always feels uneasy and doesn't dare to appear in front of her.
Shouming hurried to the.
When the back door was opened, the tall man waiting outside the door was not surprised: "Uncle Zhu? Are you back?"
Zhu Xiu nodded "Hmm" and asked, "can my girl be here?"
After entering the city, he first rushed back to the town government. Hearing that the girl was not in the government, he came here - if she was not here, he wouldn't look for it. After all, the girl's scope of action has always been too wide, and he really can't guess where else to go.
Shouming nodded: "yes!"
With that, he stepped aside. Zhu Xiu raised her feet and crossed the threshold. Shouming closed the door again.
"Uncle Zhu, looking at the dusty, has he just returned to Beijing?"
"Yes."
Shouming then asked casually, "I don't know if miss a Kui can come back with you?"
Zhu Xiu shook her head: "No."
He hurried to deliver the letter to the girl first. Wouldn't it be a delay to bring a little girl film.
Didn't come back
Shouming was disappointed, but the most concerned question was: "is ah Kui safe?"
"..." Zhu Xiu slowed down slightly and turned to look at the young man.
He just got off the horse and did something wrong. Why did he come up and listen to him?
"Peace." Zhu Xiu went on.
"That's good..." Shouming smiled "Hey" and asked, "how's General Xu?"
Zhu Xiu looked at him again: "everything is fine."
——There's no need to take the general as a cover, as if he couldn't see that the young man wanted to marry a daughter-in-law.
Shouming soon took the man to the pavilion in the backyard.
"Uncle Zhu!"
Looking at the people outside the pavilion, Xu Mingyi was quite surprised and hurried out of the pavilion.
Seeing her father's sudden return, ah Zhu was stunned.
"Girl."
Zhu Xiu raised her hand to salute and said, "the poison on the old man has been relieved. Now he is leading the army back to Beijing. I'm specially asked to rush back to report to the girl first."
Xu Mingyi's eyes were filled with joy for a moment - her grandfather was all right!
Excellent!
"This is a letter written by the childe." Zhu Xiu took out the letterhead in her arms and handed it to her with both hands.
As for why he reported orally, he had to write another letter to the girl - the childe has written it all, but he can't tear it.
Xu Mingyi's men tore open the envelope quickly, took out the letter paper, looked at it by the dim yellow light, smiled a little more, and sighed with relief: "just let Grandpa get out of danger safely!"
The safety of her grandfather was even more important to her than the survival of the whole Xu family in the future. Only when the whole family was complete could she talk about other things.
As long as grandpa is all right, she is not afraid of the rest!
She deliberately wanted to ask about what happened in Dongyuan City, but Zhu Xiu's face felt strongly supported. She must have been in a hurry to report back all the way and had never had a good rest. When she saw that she was not in the house, she immediately found here. Obviously, she wanted to tell her to hear the good news earlier——
Thinking of these, Xu Mingyi smiled and said, "Uncle Zhu, go back and have a rest first. We'll talk about other things tomorrow."
As long as you make sure your grandfather is safe, everything else is a small matter. You are not in a hurry for the moment.
And Ming Shi also roughly explained the course of the matter in the letter, and she knew it in her heart.
Zhu Xiu should be "yes" and glanced at her daughter. The father and daughter looked at each other and nodded, as if it were an ordinary colleague relationship.
After Zhu Xiu left, Xu Mingyi stood under the pavilion and bent her mouth to read her brother's letter. She had not been so relaxed for a long time. She was worried about whether her grandfather would be poisoned, and then whether the antidote could be delivered in time, and whether there would be other mistakes——
Now, all these worries have finally dissipated.
At this time, the sound of footsteps suddenly came to my ears.
Subconsciously, he looked up and saw the boy in black clothes walking down the stone steps through the back hall.
Seeing him, Xu Mingyi's smile immediately became more prosperous. He raised the hand holding the letter, waved it, and shouted happily to him, "Wu Chiu! Here!"
