Xie Fengyue didn't know that her nominal stepson Shi Zian was coming to Shengjing. She looked at Zhezhi's registration and frowned.
"All emptied?"
Zhe Zhi shook his blank sideways gaze away, shrugged and replied: "There are still some old things left, I don't know which master left them."
Xie Fengyue pinched her painful eyebrows. It was too late to regret anything now. She had already promised Bai Rongan that she only needed to pay back half.
Xie Fengyue was worried about this until she went to bed at night.
The next day.
As soon as Xie Fengyue finished breakfast, Zhezhi came in with a black gold-gilded invitation.
She looked troubled: "Girl, this invitation is from Rong Anbo's house. The person who delivered the letter asked the concierge to deliver it to you."
Xie Fengyue glanced sideways, then picked up the account book to check it again, and refused without thinking: "Just say I'm not feeling well, so I refuse."
Zhezhi's little face wrinkled up: "The person who sent the letter also said that it was personally invited by the uncle, saying it was... saying it was"
Xie Fengyue then raised her head and looked at her: "Why are you so hesitant to speak?"
Zhezhi had a brave face and repeated the original words: "Prince Wu misses his old friends and would like to invite you to get together."
Xie Fengyue paused while flipping the ledger, and opened her eyes in shock: "Is Prince An coming to Shengjing?"
Zhe Zhi nodded with difficulty: "What should I do, girl?"
Xie Fengyue's hands were faster than her brain. She pushed back her disheveled hair, held up the hairpin casually and said, "Let Huarui send Mr. Yan's carrier pigeon over."
After finishing speaking, she immediately rushed to the study and started writing a letter.
She is very clear-headed now.
But when it came time to put pen to paper, I didn’t know how to write.
After she kicked him out, Gongzi Yan had not contacted her for more than ten days. In the past, no matter how busy he was, he would appear in her sight from time to time, but this time there was really no news about him at all.
He lifted the brush and dropped ink dots on the white paper. Xie Fengyue took a deep breath and started writing.
Xie Fengyue insisted on writing down three or four notes that could be explained clearly in one sentence. In the end, she just wrote on the note and asked him to come to the house to talk about it if he was free.
Xiaobai blinked his eyes as big as mung beans and paced back and forth on the table. His cooing sounds seemed to urge her to put the letter on his feet.
Xie Fengyue was helpless and sighed again.
She owed more and more.
She sat in the study and waited quietly. The Wang family's mansion was not far from the princess. Although Xiaobai had gained some weight now, the round trip would definitely not take more than two sticks of incense.
As time went by, Xie Fengyue's heart became colder little by little.
It wasn't until Xiaobai returned to her hand intact with the letter in his leg that Xie Fengyue pulled a wry smile from the corner of her mouth.
"It seems that I owe one less favor this time."
"Zhe Zhi, go buy some longevity fruit and come back." She said calmly and ordered.
Zhizhi on the side was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth: "Girl, you can't eat that thing. After you accidentally ate that thing in Peixian County, you got bumps all over your body and itched unbearably, and those red marks were even worse. It will take less than half a month to disappear. "Hurry up and buy it. Time is running out." She said sternly, blocking out Zhi Zhi's words of advice.
Tears welled up in Zhe Zhi's eyes, and she suddenly understood why the girl wanted to eat the longevity fruit.
She wiped her eyes hard with her sleeve, turned around and ran away.
Xie Fengyue crumpled the letter into a ball and threw it into the trash can. She caressed Xiaobai gently with her eyes. It was also obedient, as if it could understand its owner's thoughts. It no longer walked back and forth on the table, but squatted down in its arms. , letting her follow its feathers over and over again.
The broken branches leave quickly and come back quickly.
Sweating profusely, she opened a pack of longevity fruits, peeled off one with trembling fingers, and handed it to Xie Fengyue.
She took it with a smile and put it in her mouth without saying a word. The unique taste filled her mouth instantly. His taste was fragrant and sweet, with a faint earthy smell.
Xie Fengyue felt that she should like to eat this longevity fruit. She liked the wild taste, but she used to be afraid that she would feel uncomfortable after eating it, and that her parents and brothers would be worried after seeing it.
After just two pills, she felt itching on her left arm. Seeing Zhezhi biting her lip and crying, Xie Fengyue simply started peeling it off herself.
She peeled and ate each one in silence, turning her head away from the broken branches on the side, and there was a faint whimpering that she couldn't suppress.
Xie Fengyue suppressed the hand that wanted to scratch the itching on her face, and pointed at the yellow-brown fruit shells piled up in a hill: "Bring the branches, you are not clearing them away yet, are you waiting for me to clean them up myself?"
The beautiful and moving voice is now hoarse, the beautiful face that makes people lose consciousness when they first meet her is now covered with red bumps, and the eyes that make people fall in love with her at first sight are also swollen and narrowed.
Zhezhi couldn't hold it in any longer, and it only took one glance to go from the previous low sobbing to the loud cry of "Wow".
Her whole body was shaking violently. With trembling fingers, she put the fruit shells into the trash can and asked, "Can I make some medicine for the girl?"
She was afraid that she would disrupt the girl's rhythm, so she only dared to lower her head and ask cautiously.
Xie Fengyue squeezed out a smile: "Of course, just put half of the medicine. My throat is a little sore now. I might as well take some to relieve it."
After seeing the red bumps on her fingers, Xie Fengyue felt a little more at ease. She was so dizzy that she simply stopped struggling and lay facelessly on the table with her hands straight up.
The itching on her face made her afraid to really sleep, and she was also afraid that she would scratch randomly in her sleep.
After drinking the medicine brought by Zhe Zhi, Xie Fengyue put on her curtain hat and let her support her back to the house.
Then she found a few more strips of cloth, tied Xie Fengyue's hands, and then said in a deep voice: "Girl, please have a sleep first. If someone comes to Uncle Rong An's house again, I will let him come in and see it in person."< br>
Xie Fengyue didn't want to hold on anymore. Her mind was so confused now that it was difficult to open her eyes. She nodded and warned: "Wait for another hour and then go to the doctor. If he prescribes medicine, you should Grab the medicine and cook it yourself, don’t let a third person handle it.”
Zhizhi pursed her lips tightly, her nose was sore, and the tears that she had finally stopped gathered again: "I know it. If the girl feels uncomfortable, just sleep peacefully."
Xie Fengyue never calculated that the person to invite on the second day would be Shi Zian himself.
He got out of the car at the gate of the Princess's Mansion with a cheerful face, and tidied his clothes very carefully. When he saw the three words "Princess's Mansion" on the plaque, a smile appeared in the corners of his eyes.
Shi Zian felt that she and Xie Fengyue were in love. It was only because of the relationship between Wu Guo and the First Family that he reluctantly sent her back. So as soon as he arrived in Shengjing, he hurriedly asked Wei Ning to send her a message. .
When he heard that she was ill and unable to attend the banquet, he simply came to see her in person.
Thinking of Xie Fengyue's ecstatic expression when she saw him in person later, the smile on Shi Zian's face deepened.
