Chapter 121

The news of Qin Muyin's return to Beijing spread on the same day, and the next day Li Wan received invitations from many families. The old lady didn't know the news of Qin Muyin's injury, so Li Wan was going to Jing'an Courtyard to tell the old lady about Qin Muyin's situation , don't let the old lady worry.

This day, after breakfast, the dishes and chopsticks were taken away, so Li Wan said leisurely, "Master Hou, you are resting in the house, I will go to Jing'an Courtyard by myself!"

In the past two days, when Qin Muyin changed his dressing, he asked Quan An to come into the house to wait on him. Li Wan didn't see how badly he was injured, and asked Quan An, but Quan An didn't tell him.

Qin Muyin supported the table with both hands. Incense was burning in the room, but he couldn't smell the smell of medicine. After taking two steps, he felt much better than before. He raised his eyes and looked at the magnolia hairpin on her bun, "Go!"

In Jing'an Courtyard, the old lady is doing needlework. The small white clothes should be prepared for Princess Cheng's children. There is a bowl of white fungus porridge on the table next to her. She didn't notice it when she entered the house.

Li Wan walked up to her and said with a smile, "Old madam!"

The old lady raised her head and said softly, "You're here, just in time, you can have a bowl of white fungus porridge made by Mother Jiang!"

Li Wan shook her head, and put away the needles and threads in her basket, "The old lady will do it later, let's have porridge first, where's Mama Jiang?"

"Maybe I went out to visit the manager!" The old lady picked up the bowl on the table, and added red dates and goji berries to the white fungus soup, and the old lady asked if she wanted it again?

"You drink, I'll come and do it, and I have something to tell you!"

At this time, Jiang's mother hurried in from the outside, sweating profusely and panting, "Old lady..."

Li Wan turned around and called Mama Jiang crisply. Mama Jiang was stunned, her complexion difficult to discern.

The old lady looked at her, "What's wrong?"

Mother Jiang has always been steady and dignified, and the old lady frowned rarely when she was so eager.

Jiang's mother slowed down, her face returned to normal, expressionless, "It's nothing, I heard you call me, I thought something happened!"

Mother Jiang breathed calmly before greeting Li Wan, her voice was a little more worried than before.

Li Wan smiled, "Mother Jiang is being polite!"

"Mother Jiang, go to the kitchen and bring my wife a bowl of tremella soup!"

Mother Jiang agreed, turned around and left.

Li Wan sank into her thoughts, thought for a moment, then raised her head and said, "Madam, I came today to tell you that Master Hou came back the day before yesterday!"

If it weren't for the too many invitations yesterday, Li Wan wouldn't want the old lady to worry.

The old lady took the spoon, gently brought it to her mouth, opened her mouth, and swallowed it in one mouthful. When it was over, she said, "You're back? Are you dark and thin?"

"Thinner, but not dark!"

The old lady nodded, "He is the backbone of the Marquis Mansion. In normal times, I would not let him go even if the emperor ordered him to. He already has a title and has no worries about food and clothing. There is no need for him to do things that hang his life on the line! "

After the death of Lord Hou, the emperor promised him that he would treat Qin Muyin well and treat Beiyanhoufu, and would not let others bully their orphans and widowed mothers. Qin Muyin has no official position at such an old age, so it is the emperor's intention and her intention. .

Li Wan nodded, understanding what the old lady meant, she was silent for a while, hesitating how to speak.

Mama Jiang entered the room, Li Wan took the white fungus soup, saw Mama Jiang blinking at her, she kept her face, Mama Jiang couldn't see anything, so she had to go out.

The madam became more and more depressed, and she panicked when she heard that Master Hou was injured, but she was able to chat with the old madam happily.

As soon as Mother Jiang left, Li Wan took a spoon to stir it twice, and said slowly, "Old Madam, when Lord Hou came back, he blocked King Jingkang's knife on the road and suffered a little injury on his waist. The doctor checked it and said it was all right. , Master Hou is coming to greet you, but I stopped him, no matter how minor the injury is, you should have a good life, the old lady won't blame me, will you?"

The old lady looked at her, Li Wan said that Lord Hou is really not seriously injured, you don't need to worry too much, the old lady felt relieved, also, if the injury was really serious, Li Wan would not be calm.

The old lady was suspicious, "What did the doctor say?"

"The doctor said not to ride a horse these few days, just not to eat spicy food, just do what you should do in normal times!"

She spoke so calmly that the old lady couldn't tell the truth from the fake, so she put down the bowl, "I'll let you go and have a look!"

Li Wan tightened her hand holding the spoon, "Okay, it's just right, I'm having lunch at Huaxian Yard at noon, there's fresh corn in the house, I'll make two side dishes for you!"

The old lady's heart sank most of the time, Jiang's mother heard the old lady said that she was going to the painting garden, and handed the work in her hand to the maid beside her, straightened her clothes, and wanted to follow.

The old lady glanced at her, "You can stay in the yard, I'll be back after lunch!"

In Yunyin Temple, she could see clearly the undercurrent between Mother Jiang and Li Wan. One was the old man in the house, the person she trusted the most, and the other was her daughter-in-law. She hoped that they could get along well.

Mama Jiang was startled, "There's nothing else going on in the yard, let's go, I'll follow, and I'll talk to Mama Zhang and Mama Li by the way!"

The old lady couldn't hold back her, so she walked side by side with Li Wan, and Mother Jiang walked behind.

Jiang's mother could only see the back of Li Wan's head, she didn't seem to be in a hurry, if she didn't see that something was wrong with the second sect, she wouldn't know that Lord Hou was injured when she asked.

In the Huaxian courtyard, the doors and windows were all open, Qin Muyin was sitting at the table, Li Wan's eyes darkened, and she narrowed them down instantly, "Madam, let me just say that Lord Hou's injury is not serious!"

Qin Muyin held the pen in his hand, and Li Wan noticed that the copybook on the table was her daily practice, his handwriting.

She has not fallen all day, and now she has a faint charm of his when writing with a pen, but her own strength and momentum are far worse than his.

Unexpectedly, when he came out of the room, his eyes paused for a moment and then moved away, looking again, for fear of revealing a flaw.

After the old lady entered the house, Li Wan went to the inner room to change her clothes and put on a smock, "You guys are talking, I'll make some light dishes for lunch!"

The old lady walked to the table, and suppressed the worry in her eyes, "Why are you injured?"

Li Wan had said it before, and she wanted to hear him say it again.

"On the way back to Beijing, I met a bandit and blocked the knife for King Jingkang. The injury was not serious. Why did you come here in person!"

Qin Muyin told Zilan to put away the copybook, her brows were smudged with a smile, "How many games do you want to play?"

The old lady saw that he moved quite freely, and his face was not sickly pale, "Come on for a few rounds, I will kill your vigor!"

"Zi Lan, play chess!" Qin Muyin walked to the kang by the window and sat down, the old lady followed.

There were eleven rounds in total, and the old lady won one round. Seeing Qin Muyin's raised eyebrows, she couldn't help but annoyed, "I haven't seen you for a long time, and I don't see you giving way to me. It's really no fun playing chess with you. I'd better wait for Wan'er." bring it on!"
