A Thousand Gold Order: Inheritance

Chapter 10 A Full Meal

Of course, there is another possibility——

Yun Xi said that this batch of spices was bought by the mansion, and the things they brought out may have been problematic when they first got them.

The clues have to be found bit by bit, even if it is the elimination method, Qi Huan doesn't mind using it first.

Yun Xi just doesn't turn his mind very much when thinking about things, but he obeys Qi Huan's advice.

Without thinking about it, he nodded decisively: "Okay! The servant knows."

Yunxi turned her head and ran back.

Mother Liu, who was following the car, finally sensed that something was wrong, hurried over, and said nervously: "Why did Miss let Yun Xi secretly watch your yard? Is... what happened?"

Qi Huan smiled: "It's not a big deal, it's just... I found someone with dirty hands and feet, let's talk about it when I come back."

After speaking, he returned to the carriage.

At that time, Qi Yuanchen was still holding a soup bowl and staring at her strangely.

Qi Huan saw that he looked a little silly, so he laughed again, took a piece of pastry and threw it into his mouth, saw that he was holding a small porcelain bowl in one hand, took the bowl over, and fed him soup with a spoon .

Qi Yuanchen blushed and looked a little uncomfortable.

Qi Huan suddenly realized why he was looking at him so strangely before, so he lowered his voice and slyly fooled him: "My sister was sick earlier, she didn't eat for two or three days, she was really hungry, just now it was indeed It's very indecent...you want to keep a secret for my sister, don't tell others?"

It was originally to fool the child casually, but he didn't want to, but the child's eyes turned red on the spot, and his expression looked more and more aggrieved.

Seeing that something was wrong, Qi Huan quickly changed his words: "It's fine now, I'll eat more in the future, and I won't get sick again if I take care of my body. You too, eat well. Come on, have some soup."

In order to divert the child's attention, she quickly scooped up a spoonful of soup and brought it to the other's mouth.

Qi Yuanchen seemed unwilling, but his right hand was injured, and he really couldn't do the act of holding the soup bowl and pouring it into his mouth like Qi Huan did, so he could only open his mouth awkwardly and let Qi Huan feed it mouthful .

This child is really well-behaved, doesn't talk much, and is very quiet.

Although he is a small child, he eats slowly and elegantly like a gentleman.

Qi Huan was a grassroots in his previous life, and he has never seen what a real noble life is like, but at this moment, the more he looks at this child, the more interesting he finds it, and his heart is not so hopeless, so the corners of his lips can't help but curl up , Eyebrow dyed smile.

Occasionally, Qi Yuanchen secretly raised his eyes to look at her, and seeing her star-studded eyes, her long eyelashes also flickered, and her expression didn't look so awkward anymore.

After Qi Huan fed him the chicken soup, he brought the soup cup over again, and continued to tear the remaining chicken in it, and the siblings ate it one bite at a time.

Both of them had survived a serious illness. Qi Yuanchen originally had a bad appetite, but now he was infected by her, and he didn't feel uncomfortable at the beginning. He ate a lot with her, and his belly bulged.

Qi Huan gnawed the chicken in the soup until only a pile of bare bones remained, and ate two more cakes.

This body looks like it doesn't usually eat well, and her appetite is very small. She felt a little full, so she had to give up, and the two siblings collapsed in the carriage to rest.

After all, Qi Yuanchen was young, and he had traveled a long distance. The carriage was swaying. He must have been really tired. He fell asleep on Qi Huan's lap and died on the way.

Qi Huan took the cloak and covered him with it, and he slept soundly all the way.

After entering Qingshui County, Qi Huan asked the coachman to drive the carriage to the street where the county government was located, and waited at an inconspicuous corner of the street.

At this time, Mama Liu realized that something was wrong, but when she opened the curtain to ask, she saw Qi Yuanchen was sleeping soundly on Qi Huan's lap, so she had to endure it again.

Not long after, the servant sent by Zhuangtou in advance to inquire about the news ran out of the alley in Houya.

"Are you out?" Qi Huan lifted a corner of the curtain and poked his head out.

"Yes!" The boy arched his hands, "It is said that it is the wife of Hong Dayong's family in the town. The Hong family has set up a tofu stall. The Hong family has lived in this town for three generations. Notoriously honest...Miss, Mama Zheng really can't speak clearly this time."

Two well-known aboriginal honest people suddenly took a stranger to the Yamen to file a complaint one day. On the premise of getting the stolen goods, they also knew how the Yamen would judge the case.

The details are done so well, which shows that the person behind the game is a thoughtful and good at planning.

Although Mama Liu didn't know exactly what happened, she was even more shocked when she heard the words: "What's the matter? Mama Zheng? What happened to Mama Zheng?"

After such a noise, Qi Yuanchen also woke up, rubbed his eyes and sat up in a daze.

Qi Huan was afraid that he would catch a cold, so he quickly wrapped him with the cloak again.

She ignored Liu's mother, and only asked the boy: "The Hong couple still live in the town, right? Have you found out where they live?"

"I asked." The servant hurriedly said, "It is said to be in the Daliushu Hutong in the north of the city."

Qi Huan nodded: "Go, go."

This town is not too big, there are only a few streets in total. The Hong family's family is poor, and although the alley they live in is a bit remote, it is easy to find. I found it near the Daliushu alley and asked, and someone pointed it out. Stone mill people.

The alley was very narrow, but fortunately, Qi Huan was riding in a small carriage that his master didn't use often, so he could drive in.

She didn't want too many people to see her appearance, so she asked the coachman to drive the carriage directly to the front of Hong's house, and then got out of the carriage.

At this time, Mother Liu no longer tried to ask any more questions, but just reached out to hug Qi Yuanchen.

But Qi Yuanchen turned away in disgust.

Qi Huan shook his head helplessly and smiled, turned around and stretched out his hand, he subconsciously dodged again, but then saw that it was Qi Huan, so he hesitated and did not refuse.

Qi Huan carried him out of the car, and the guards following the car had already knocked on the door of Hong's house.

The row of houses here are very narrow, and the Hong family doesn't even have a yard, so the stone mill used to grind tofu is placed outside.

As soon as the door of the main room was opened, there was a strong smell of bitter medicine.

Apparently—

There are seriously ill patients in this family.

"Did you... find the wrong place?" The woman who opened the door didn't comb her hair well, and she should be around thirty years old, but she looked vicissitudes on her face, and her eyes were even more obvious. At first glance, it was a symptom of lack of sleep, and his expression was a little listless.

The guard was about to speak with a grumpy face, but Qi Huan had already walked forward with Qi Yuanchen in his arms: "Are you Mrs. Hong?"

The woman nodded awkwardly, but her expression was reserved: "My family's surname is Hong, but you..."

"Go in and talk." Qi Huan glanced sideways at the entrance of the alley, and there were already some good neighbors looking around there, but fortunately her carriage and guards stood in front of Hong's house, so no one dared to get close to eavesdrop.

The woman saw her hugging a group of servants and holding a child in her arms. One was because she didn't dare to offend her, and the other was that she instinctively felt that it was inappropriate to hold a child because of her thin and weak appearance, so she subconsciously backed away.

Qi Huan stepped in.

The table in the main room was so dark that it couldn't see its original appearance, she didn't dislike it, and sat down beside Qi Yuanchen with her arms in her arms.

At this time, a man also came out of the back room with an old bowl, with the same haggard and sad face, and when he saw a group of strangers and luxuriously dressed young women and children coming to the house, he was also stunned: "You are... "

Qi Huan placed Qi Yuanchen on his lap and sat down, straight to the point: "The woman who was falsely accused by you of entering the yamen yesterday is my servant."

With a bang, the porcelain bowl in the man's hand fell to the ground.

　Um.Eating is important. Only when you are full can you have the strength to start a career.
