The next day, at three o'clock in the morning, we were at the gate of Song Mansion in Dingxicheng.
Qin Ming, who was wearing a green shirt with a hosta on his head, was standing at the entrance of the courtyard to say goodbye to Song Muqing's master and servant.
"Ms. Song, Qin and others have been causing trouble a lot these days while staying at Guibao Land."
"Qin left a box of things in your boudoir. They are all from Qin's house and are not worth much. It is a little bit of Qin's kindness. I hope Madam Song will accept it."
Song Muqing didn't look very good today.
Just because she kept thinking about her daughter's family last night, she tossed and turned in sadness and couldn't sleep all night.
Song Muqing, who had dark circles under his eyes, pursed his lips and mustered up the courage to say:
"Lang Jun, I want to go to Yuzhong with you, and I hope that your husband will do it."
Qin Ming was stunned when he heard this, was silent for a while, and said:
"Ms. Song, you have just been vaccinated with cowpox, so you should not work too hard. Otherwise, you may fall ill on the road, and we will have to arrange for someone to take care of you."
"If you are worried that your credit is not enough, in the following days, try to find as many cattle with cowpox as possible."
"When the army opens the road to Lanzhou, you only need to order people to send these cattle to Lanzhou, and then you can make great contributions to the court."
After hearing this, the courage Song Muqing finally mustered up suddenly disappeared.
She glanced at Qin Ming with some resentment, then gave Qin Ming a blessing and said:
"I've written it down."
"After a while, after collecting enough cattle, I will personally deliver them to Mr. Lang."
"We are out of danger. Please take care of yourself. I will pray for you at home."
Qin Ming nodded slightly, returned the greeting with his hands raised, and said:
"Thank you, Mrs. Song."
After saying that, Qin Ming turned around and walked towards the black carriage at the door.
Zi Shu, who was beside the carriage, quickly came up to greet him, bowed and said:
"Sir, the people staying in the Song Mansion have been counted and they are all here."
Qin Ming nodded slightly, looked around at the five transport trucks lined up neatly on the street, and said to Zishu:
"Go to the wounded barracks in the west of the city. After picking up Xu Gou and the others, we will go directly out of the city to join the escorting soldiers outside the city."
"Here."
The maid Xiaodie who was standing on the steps looked at the motorcade that was getting away, and then turned to look at her wife with a sad look on her face.
Xiaodie couldn't help but sigh, reached out and tugged on Song Muqing's sleeves, and said:
"Madam, we are not the same person as him after all. You should forget about him."
Song Muqing shook his head and smiled bitterly when he heard this, and murmured:
"The innocence that I managed to keep was taken away by him in a daze. Now, it's not easy to forget."
After saying that, Song Muqing turned around and walked towards the mansion.
A quarter of an hour later.
The maid Xiaodie exclaimed.
She covered her mouth and stared at the small wooden box in front of her with watery eyes.
Song Muqing, who heard the noise, looked at Xiaodie with some confusion and asked:
"Xiaodie, what's wrong with you?"
Xiaodie swallowed, took out an object from the wooden box with trembling hands, and said in a trembling voice:
"Madam, look at this mirror."
.......
On the other side, on the black four-wheel carriage.
Sun Simiao sat in front of a small desk and kept asking Qin Ming about the various sequelae of vaccination with cowpox while burying his head in writing.
Qin Ming only focused a small part of his mind on answering the questions, and most of the rest of his mind was always paying attention to Baili Zhi, who was not far away wearing a veil and bowing her head silently.
Sun Simiao raised his eyes and glanced at Qin Ming, who was sitting on pins and needles, and then asked casually:
"Oh, Mr. Shanzhang, Pindao remembers that you mentioned yesterday that you might get chickenpox after being vaccinated with cowpox, right?"
Qin Ming hummed and said:
"The probability is not very high. Almost one out of every twenty people vaccinated with cowpox will develop chickenpox."
Sun Simiao nodded when he heard this and said:
"Chief Shan, this chickenpox won't make people look bad, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Ming saw Baili Zhi's body from the corner of his eye and was slightly shocked.
Immediately, he suddenly understood.
Qin Ming could no longer care about it at this time. His relationship with Baili Zhi was noticed by Sun Simiao.
He quickly stood up and sat down next to Baili Zhi. Without saying a word, he picked up Baili Zhi's wrist, pushed up her sleeves, and looked at it carefully.
At this time, there were seven or eight small red chicken pox scattered on Baili Zhi's originally white and flawless arms.
Baili Zhi lowered her head and retracted her arms.
Qin Ming did not dare to use force with his hands, so he could only stop him with words.
"Don't move, let me see."
Baili Zhi pursed her lips and was about to cry.
"It's so ugly, Chief Shan, I'd better stop looking at it."
Qin Ming placed Baili Zhi's hand in his palm and said softly:
"How could my Zhi'er be so beautiful and ugly?"
Baili Zhi's pretty face turned red when she heard this.
"Chief, please don't joke with me. Master is still here."
At this time, Sun Simiao on the side suddenly stretched out and leaned on the single sofa, sinking into it.
"Hey, maybe it's the after-effects of vaccination with cowpox. Pindao's ears suddenly don't work very well, and his body is also tired."
"Mountain Chief, you can do it yourself! I need to take a nap first."
As he spoke, Sun Simiao picked up the notebook on the desk and covered his face.
Baili Zhi glanced at the master who was pretending to be deaf and mute not far away, and her pretty face became even more rosy.
For a moment, her mind was spinning and she thought of many things.
But what made her happiest was that her master didn't seem to object to her being with Qin Ming.
On the other hand, Qin Ming, after hearing Sun Simiao's words, he silently praised Sun Dazhen in his heart for the first time.
[This "father-in-law" is pretty good, I insist on it. ]
Thinking like this, Qin Ming asked:
"Are these chickenpox on your body itchy?"
Baili Zhi hesitated for a moment, then nodded obediently.
Qin Ming felt confused, and then he looked at Baili Zhi's veil and said:
"Take off your veil and let me see."
Baili Zhi shook her head when she heard this, refusing to live or die.
Qin Ming glanced at Sun Simiao inside the carriage.
Immediately, he stretched out his hand and gently hugged Baili Zhi's waist, and said softly:
"Don't be afraid, no matter what you become now, in my heart, you will always be the medicine fairy with a gentle personality, a kind heart, and an alluring appearance."
"She is the girl Qin wants to protect for the rest of her life."
Baili Zhi, a simple-minded person, has never heard such straightforward words of love!
Qin Ming's whole heart was about to melt.
She bit her lip lightly, looked at Qin Ming expectantly, and murmured to herself:
"The Nu family is not as good as Qin Lang said."
Qin Ming wrapped his left hand around Baili Zhi's slender waist, leaned forward slightly, and skillfully removed Baili Zhi's veil.
Then, Qin Ming quickly kissed Baili Zhi's delicate red lips while looking at her slightly panicked eyes.
After a while,
Qin Ming looked at Baili Zhi, who buried her head in his arms like an ostrich, and asked softly:
"Zhi'er, are you trustworthy now?"
