Sir, can you marry me?

Chapter 61

Xiao Wenqing had many doubts in her heart, but Zhao Mingtang didn't want to talk to him, and she couldn't ask, so she went to bed and rested.

Zhao Mingtang, who was sleeping on the other side, closed his eyes, but his mind was racing.He was worried about Xiao Wenqing and their future. Obviously, Xiao Wenqing liked him, liked being Zhao's daughter-in-law, and liked the ordinary and warm life. Would she be willing to accept another life?Or, for her own good, he didn't say anything and kept her in the dark?
Xiao Wenqing cherished that box of ointment very much. According to Zhao Mingtang's instructions, he washed his face every morning, noon and evening, carefully applied the ointment, and rubbed it slowly to let the medicine penetrate into the skin.

Mother Zhao was surprised to see Xiao Wenqing applying the plaster, and asked what it was.Xiao Wenqing told her that this was the magic medicine that Ming Tang begged for, and it could remove the scars on her face.

"Where did this kid ask for the magic medicine? Why didn't he ask for it when he was injured?" Mother Zhao said in surprise.If the daughter-in-law had a flawless face, would it be... She was a little worried, and decided to urge her son to do things early, and use her feelings and children to restrain the young and beautiful daughter-in-law.

"Mingtang said that men don't care about their faces." Xiao Wenqing smiled, facing the vanity mirror, gently rubbing the scar on the right face repeatedly with fingers stained with ointment.The smell of this medicine is cool and fragrant, and it does have a hot feeling when applied to the scars.

"Who said that men don't care about their faces?" Zhao's mother said, "Men with disfigured appearance don't matter among the people, but if a man wants to be an official or something, he can't do it if his face is flawed or his body is not healthy."

She took a look at the round porcelain box with a blue peony pattern on a white background and said: "This porcelain is small and exquisite, the glaze is moist and smooth, the color is bright, and the peony flowers are lifelike and charming. Ordinary people can't afford it." .”

"Mother, I just think this porcelain box is small and exquisite, so I don't think much about it." Xiao Wenqing said, "Don't ordinary people have this kind of porcelain?" The porcelain she had come into contact with when she was a maid in Huanglin Zhifu's Mansion and He Yushi's Mansion Basically everything is so beautiful.

"This kind of porcelain is very expensive, and ordinary people are reluctant to use it. And it's so small, it's not practical." Mother Zhao said.Porcelain used by civilians is all coarse porcelain, even if it is broken, the porcelain pieces must be collected to see if they can be repaired by a porcelain craftsman and continue to be used.

Xiao Wenqing took the porcelain box the size of a rouge box from Zhao's mother, lifted it up to look at the bottom, and recognized the characters in the small blue circle. "Luozhou Deqing." She turned to Zhao's mother and said, "Mother, this porcelain box was fired in the Luozhou Deqing Kiln."

"I don't know about this. Ordinary people buy porcelain as long as it is cheap and easy to use, no matter where it is produced." Mother Zhao said, "In my opinion, this box is not cheap, it is more expensive than buying four or five large porcelain bowls. This good porcelain box contains medicine, this medicine must be good medicine, maybe it is more expensive."

Xiao Wenqing pondered for a while, then said: "Mother is from the capital, but have you heard that there are any miracle doctors in the capital?"

"There are many doctors in the capital, but I have never heard of someone who is honored as a genius doctor by many people." Mother Zhao said.

Xiao Wenqing guessed in his heart that maybe Zhao Mingtang didn't get this box of ointment directly from a certain genius doctor, but he got it through a friend or some kind of relationship.An ordinary guard, following the officials he protects in and out, what chance does he have to recognize friends with knowledge?Could it be that this plaster was obtained by his other identity - the masked man in black?
She felt that her husband-in-law was full of mysteries, and her husband-in-law's mother didn't know much about her own son.

The ointment that Zhao Mingtang got was really miraculous. The scar on Xiao Wenqing's right face became shallower and smaller, and the scar disappeared within half a month.

Zhao's mother was more and more excited about her daughter-in-law's white and flawless beauty.She had a premonition that this daughter-in-law might fly away.

When her son came home, she took advantage of her daughter-in-law's absence and said to her son, "Tonight, you have to..." The last two times when her son came home, she secretly paid attention to her daughter-in-law's expression the next morning Behavior, to ensure that the daughter-in-law is still a virgin.

"Mother, this is my private matter, so don't worry about it." Zhao Mingtang immediately interrupted her.

Zhao's mother immediately said: "Tell me the truth, is it because you are not healthy, so you have been unwilling to ask for a daughter-in-law, and even if you ask for a daughter-in-law, you don't want to make out with her?" She was almost dying of anxiety.

Zhao Mingtang immediately said: "No." This had something to do with his man's dignity, so he had to answer.

"You don't like Wenqing?" Mother Zhao continued to ask.

"No." Zhao Mingtang said, only he knew how much perseverance he needed to restrain his restless and hot body every time he slept in the same bed with Xiao Wenqing.

"Then why don't you make out with her?" Mother Zhao asked eagerly.

Zhao Mingtang still said: "This is a private matter, you don't have to worry about it."

Zhao's mother was so angry that she suddenly reached out to grab Zhao Mingtang's ear.

Zhao Mingtang dodged to avoid his mother's two-fingered fitter.

Zhao's mother was even more annoyed, and said angrily: "You bastard, you actually disobeyed your old mother." She jumped at her son like an eagle catching a chicken.

Zhao Mingtang hastened to dodge again, and even turned behind Zhao's mother to grab her shoulders, lest she throw her head and fall or dodge her waist.

Their mother and son ran after each other. Xiao Wenqing came over with dinner and was very surprised to see it.Their mother and son are so lively...

After all, Zhao's mother was old, and she couldn't catch her young, strong and skilled son, so she was so tired that she was panting.She was angry, and kept a straight face when eating. After eating, she went to the kitchen to fetch water, and took a shower in the bathroom next door.Although the summer night in Yong'an, the capital city, is not particularly hot, it is necessary for people to take a bath every day.
