Chapter 127
on the long street.

The shoulder-carrying shopkeeper shakes his rattle drum, faces the rising sun with a smile on his face, and walks with trembling shoulder poles; the old lady at the roadside stall patiently wipes the few dishes and cups on the stall The dish, muttering in his mouth, must be hoping for good business today; the boy who is carrying a basket and selling fruit has a very penetrating voice. If it is placed now, he can make his debut with a good voice...

"Pity!"

Xiao Qian shook his head regretfully.Yan Shiyi turned his face away, looking at an embroidery workshop on the street that just opened its doors.That's where Xiao Qian took her to order clothes.

"How about it, do you want to make some more clothes?"

Xiao Qian turned his face to the side and looked at Yan Shishi with a smile.

Yan Shishi didn't speak, her gaze passed the embroidery workshop and landed on the alley next to the embroidery workshop.A carriage hurried out from the alley.

"not good!"

Xiao Qian said it was too late or too soon, flew out of the carriage, grabbed the young man who was selling with a basket, and tapped his toes again, he carried the young man to the door of the embroidery workshop, and stood firmly stature.

The carriage rushed obliquely, and came to an emergency stop a foot in front of Yan Shiyi's carriage.The horse that had been strangled by its chest neighed long, was whipped on the back by the driver, and let out a grievous whimper...

The curtain on the carriage opened, and a woman poked her head out. Seeing Yan Shishi in the carriage, she jumped out of the carriage and walked over.

Xiao Qian made sure that the boy was not injured, and led the boy to stop in front of the mother-in-law.

"Your car almost hit this boy just now."

"What do you want?"

The mother-in-law didn't recognize Xiao Qian, so she looked Xiao Qian up and down, then looked at Yan Shishi in the car, and asked with a smile:
"But Miss Yan Shishi from the Eleven Medicine Shop?"

Yan Shiyi looked down at the mother-in-law.The mother-in-law's clothing is not gorgeous, but the texture of the material and embroidery are also extraordinary.On the head are two silver hairpins carved with silk and flowers, and they are not readily available at market stalls.But it's not like the people in the Princess's Mansion. Even if the women in the Princess's Mansion don't know all of them, they still know Yan Shiyi.Will not see face to ask.

The mother-in-law's carriage almost hit someone, not only did she not show any apology, but her attitude was a bit arrogant, she ignored Xiao Qian, Yan Shiyi was a little annoyed.Staring at the mother-in-law without speaking.

"You apologize to him."

Xiao Qian pulled over the boy.The young man was facing his mother-in-law, and immediately appeared embarrassed.

The young man was used to being taught by his widowed mother, and he didn't dare to argue with others. He was pushed behind by Xiao Qian, but his body struggled to the side.

He hawks on the long street every day, and he can distinguish the carriages and horses of the wealthy and expensive houses.He didn't dare to offend any of the people in the two carriages in front of him, he just wanted to escape as soon as possible, so as not to delay selling.The widowed mother waited for him to sell the fruit to buy rice and salt.

"Who are you? Don't meddle in your own business."

Xiao Qian was dressed in ordinary clothes, the old woman just glanced at her and concluded that this man just wanted to take the opportunity to extort some money from the young man.As he spoke, he took out a few copper coins from his waist and threw them at the young man.He raised his face to Yan Shishi and said:

"Miss Yan, please follow me to Dongyanghou's Mansion. Our Madam Tai has invited you there. It's really urgent, so I dare not delay."

"It's you who dare not delay, what has it to do with me?"

The mother-in-law's attitude towards the young man completely angered Yan Shixi.No matter what Dongyang Hou's mansion is, even if the wife of Dongyang Hou's mansion comes over and the carriage hits someone, she has to apologize as well.

Yan Shishi leaned back in the chair, and without looking at the woman, he reached out to pick up the booklet he had prepared last night and flipped through it.Today is to investigate the qualifications of joining the herbal tea merchant according to the address on the brochure, and later to upgrade the freckle-removing medicine for the princess, she can't delay for a moment.

"This this……"

It was beyond my mother-in-law's expectation that a small shopkeeper of a medicine shop could refuse the invitation from Dongyang Hou's Mansion.She stood blankly in the street, watching Xiao Qian stuff a string of money into the young man's arms, patted the young man on the shoulder, as if saying something, then jumped into the carriage, sat side by side with Yan Shishi, the carriage was facing drive away.

The mother-in-law suddenly came back to her senses, ran a few steps and grabbed the back beam of the carriage.she shouted:

"Miss Yan, wait, Miss Yan, wait. I have something important to tell you..."

The woman's footsteps couldn't compare with the horse's four hooves, and she immediately seemed to be dragging her feet.

Yan Shishi turned around and saw the situation, and stopped the carriage.Xiao Qian turned around and frowned, and asked the mother-in-law if she had something to say directly.

Street spectators pointed at them, but they also knew that they were not to be trifled with, so they would not get too close to watch.

The woman straightened up, patted the ashes on the shoe, and said, crying:

"My family's eldest son fell ill, Mrs. Tai ordered me to invite Miss Yan to come and treat her."

"Your family's grandson is sick, so he went to the palace to ask the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment. Why bother Miss Yan? Miss Yan sells medicinal materials, not a doctor."

Xiao Qian snorted coldly.

Yan Shixi listened silently.The last time Dongyang Hou Shizi Jing Can passed out drunk on the street, Yunniang sent Jing Can back to the mansion late at night, it has only been a few days, why is Jing Can sick...

But Xiao Qian was right, Jing Can could ask an imperial physician if she was ill, and even if Yan Shiyi knew medical skills, only Xiao Qian knew about it, and even the princess only thought that she knew only a few folk remedies.

Seeing Yan Shishi ignoring her with a cold face, the mother-in-law became anxious.

"Miss Yan must be blaming me for not being considerate just now, old lady, I admit my mistake, I should call..."

The mother-in-law slapped her mouth and said:

"This son is right. Our son is sick and needs to be treated by the imperial physician. The imperial physician has already invited three of them, and they all said that the son's illness is lovesickness. Miss Yan needs to go there in person to heal our son..."

Halo, what is going on!

"It's just nonsense!"

Xiao Qian patted the back of the chair and said angrily.

"Where did the lovesickness come from? I think it's a mental illness. You go back and tell your wife, and say that Miss Yan doesn't know how to treat mental illness. Let her hire someone else."

Xiao Qian snorted again.

The mother-in-law shivered again.But the mission is in the body, even if you risk your life, you have to complete the mission.She grabbed Yan Shiyi's skirt and did not let go, and knelt down in the street with a double thud after crying.

"If Miss Yan doesn't agree to go to Dongyang Hou's Mansion, my wife, I will kneel and die here today. Just let the carriage run over me to death, and let the girl and this young master dispel their anger."

The mother-in-law is still confused about the relationship between the boy who sold fruit with a basket and left just now, and Yan Shishi and Xiao Qian.

"If you don't invite Miss Yan to go back, you will die. I'll die here. Anyway, the life of a slave is worthless, ouch... Even if I die, I will be reborn as a cow and horse, so I don't want to be a slave anymore..."

The mother-in-law walked two steps on her knees with red eyes crying and knelt, lowering her head as if to bump into Yan Shiyi's carriage.

"You don't have to die, I'll go with you."

Yan Shishi said.Even if the mother-in-law is acting, what she said is quite reasonable.The slaves and maids in the rich and noble mansions are all in the hands of their masters.Yan Shishi didn't receive it in the princess's mansion, and he has seen through it deeply.

When the mother-in-law heard Yan Shishi's words, she immediately stood up, first bowed to Yan Shishifu, and then hurriedly called her carriage over to invite Yan Shishi to get in.

"There's no need to change cars. I'll go with her."

Xiao Qian glanced at his mother-in-law, then at Yan Shishi, with complicated eyes.
