"Master, why don't I move back to live again this time," Pang Yi looked around. A little worried, he said, "Although Mr. Fang said that the Northwest Forest Farm has settled down. However, the subordinates have been uneasy. Now the guard Kong has sent Mr. Chen to take the provincial examination. I am afraid that he will not be able to return until September. "
It has been raining continuously. It was inconvenient for Chen Qingxuan to go to Jilin to take part in the provincial examination, and no one wanted to go out on such a day. Chen Qingxuan searched around but couldn't find a carriage. Fang Zuotang found out, and immediately sent guards to escort Chen Qingxuan to Jilin. It so happened that Kong Wenmin went back to the prefect's yamen that day. Then he drove the carriage directly to Chenjiatun.
"That's okay, there are houses for the left and right families to live in." Zhong Mingwei nodded, he actually prefers to live in his own. They all got married after all. It is not convenient to live together. But now he is much less courageous than before, he is really afraid of some evil assassins. So Pang Yi wanted to move back, and he didn't stop him.
"Master. Did you really listen to King Pingxi's words after the crime?" Pang Yi frowned, and asked in a deep voice, "One more thing. The subordinates don't even understand why King Pingxi defends the Lord everywhere? What is his purpose? What does he want to get from Master?"
"I don't know," Zhong Mingwei shook his head, watching Meiya sitting in the gazebo and chatting and laughing with Xiao An, his complexion was a little dark, "No matter what the reason is, and no matter what he wants, As long as he can protect us, as long as he can keep my side of the world, I will agree to anything."
…
August 15th in the thirty-third year of Jiasheng.
Moon Festival.
Chen Qingxuan and Kong Wenmin had already stopped at this place called Qianjiatun for two days, not because of heavy rain and muddy roads, it was not suitable to travel, but because Chen Qingxuan fell ill.
This rain has been falling intermittently for more than ten days. In autumn, the Ninggu Pagoda is very cold. In addition, Chen Qingxuan couldn't bear it because he had to travel in the rain for many days. Yes, Kong Wenmin originally planned to stop and ask the doctor to come and have a look, but Chen Qingxuan was unwilling because he was afraid of delaying the day of the township examination, because the heavy rain made it difficult for them to travel, and if they had to rest for a day and a half in the middle , Chen Qingxuan might die in a hurry.
Kong Wenmin had no choice but to continue on his way in the rain, but at Qianjiatun just arrived yesterday, Kong Wenmin called Chen Qingxuan to come down for breakfast, and then Chen Qingxuan fell off the carriage, almost scared Kong Wenmin to death, and was too busy to find After staying at the inn, another doctor was invited. Chen Qingxuan took the decoction and fell asleep for most of the day. When he woke up, it was already dark.
"Where is this?" Chen Qingxuan looked around the room, knowing that this should be an inn, and finally his eyes fell on Kong Wenmin who was standing in front of his bed holding a medicine bowl, "I... How long have I been sleeping?" ?”
"Qian Jiatun, three hours," Kong Wenmin said, while putting the medicine bowl on the small table beside the bed, he glanced at Chen Qingxuan again, "Can I sit up?"
Chen Qingxuan nodded, then supported his elbows, and sat up from the bed little by little. Kong Wenmin frowned and watched, but he couldn't stand it any longer. Let him lean on his back.
"I... I'm better, cough cough!" Chen Qingxuan was sitting on the pillow, his face was paper-colored, he coughed without saying a word, "We'll be tomorrow..."
"Understood, we will continue our journey tomorrow morning," Kong Wenmin interrupted him, sitting on the edge of the bed, and handing the medicine bowl to him, "Stop talking, drink the medicine."
Chen Qingxuan took the medicine bowl and drank the black soup in it all at once, then put the medicine bowl aside, frowned and said to Kong Wenmin, "Thank you."
"Eat this, and get a good night's sleep after it's over." Kong Wenmin didn't make a sound, escaped a small package from his arms, put it on the table, and then pushed the door and left.
Chen Qingxuan thought it was some kind of bitter pill, but when he opened the paper bag, he saw that there were sesame candies inside. Chen Qingxuan watched and smelled the strong aroma of sesame seeds, then stretched out his hand and squeezed a piece into his mouth.
It's so sweet, every time when he was sick when he was a child, Grandma Chen would always buy sesame candy to coax him, but she hasn't eaten it for many years.
After eating the small packet of sesame candy, Chen Qingxuan fell asleep again in a daze.
