C3 The Girl Was Trying to Escape from the Marriage

Not long after she got back in the house, Wuh Xing knocked on the door and came in. He brought her food and a set of clothes. He said apologetically: "Miss Zhuo, this is Brother Xiaohu's room. He'll move in first and squeeze with me. Right now, we only have the residences and clothes of the soldiers. Miss Zhou, please stay here for a few days. There is only one cleaning lady and cooking lady here. The rest are all men. To avoid suspicion, they said that my sister came to visit me. I borrowed a set of clean clothes here. Please don't mind it. "

Zhuo Xi said, "Brother Wu is very careful. Thank you. " Although this Wuh Xing was crafty and unpredictable, at least she was safe for the next seven days. Moreover, the coarse linen clothes she was wearing were very uncomfortable. She could take a shower and change into dry clothes. She could not wait to see him. She did not care if he was a woman or not.

"Then please have your meal first. After tidying up, you can go to bed early. "

Zhuo Xi nodded and sent Wuh Xing out.

When Wuh Xing went out, he happened to bump into another official. That person teased, "Wuh Xing, I heard that your sister is here? She can't be your future sister-in-law, right? Hahaha. "

"What are you talking about, kid? She's my sister, my biological sister. "

"Not cousin sister or something like that? Haha. "

. . .

Zhuo Xi stuck to the door and frowned as she heard the laughter getting further and further away.

The next morning, she woke up in a burst of shouting. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that it was the soldiers who were training. She thought in her heart that this so-called Guangan Marquis was too serious. A mere battalion of guards that guarded the Royal Mausoleum could not even compare to a regular army. He also had to train so diligently. She changed her clothes and carried the food box from last night out of the courtyard. She walked towards the direction where smoke was curling up from the kitchen.

A woman who was sweeping saw her and warmly greeted her, "Miss Wu, you're so early?"

She quickly went up to greet her, "How may I address you, mother?"

"My surname is Wu. You can just call me Madam Wu. "

"Aunt Wu, this dress was borrowed by my big brother, right? Thank you very much. "

"Oh, Miss, you are too polite. These clothes are not worth anything. It's my honor that Miss doesn't mind wearing my clothes. "

Zhuo Xi quickly waved her hand and said, "Aunt Wu, don't say that. Receiving the kindness of a drop of water as a form of repayment, I sincerely thank you. " "It's a sensible girl. But you came all the way here. Why didn't you prepare a few more clothes when you went out? Didn't you have to wear the clothes of a servant when you were tired?"

"Aunt Wu, to be honest, I secretly ran out of the house. It happened so suddenly and I didn't have time to pack properly. " As she spoke, her eyes turned red.

Lady Wu immediately became curious and lovingly stroked her hand. She found that there was a white cloth wrapped around her wrist. "If the girl is willing, tell your mother. What is going on? Old hag, I, always stare at Mammy Wang. There is no one to talk to. You just happened to be here. Talk to me, or else these days. . . "

She led Zhuo Xi into the kitchen with two steps. When she entered, she shouted loudly, "Mammy Wang, look! We have a little sister from the Wu family to accompany us today. "

Mammy Wang looked up from the stove and gave a cold glance. "What little sister? You are looking for a boyfriend again, right?"

"That's not it. Don't speak nonsense. This was the sister of the Second Battalion's Deputy Commander, Wuh Xing. Right, Miss Wu? "

" Yes. Wuh Xing is my big brother. "

"Hmph, I've seen cousin come looking for cousin, but I've never seen a sister come looking for big brother. " Mammy Wang's hands did not stop as she snorted from her nose.

"Yeah, don't blame us for thinking too much. Although our Royal Mausoleum has been stationed here for more than a year, Although this man is also on duty like in the military camp, he is not a proper guard. However, there are not as many rules as the military camp. It is common for those cousins and Miss Biao to come and find us. But it's really hard to see your sister come looking for your big brother. Forgive me for asking, but. . . Could something have happened to your family?"

"No, no. Nothing happened, just, just. . . "Zhuo Xi bit her lower lip and wanted to say something but stopped herself.

"Look at how wronged you are. You just said that you secretly ran out and came to tell Ms. Wu that if you have any grievances, don't hold it in yourself. " Lady Wu pulled Zhuo Xi to the side and sat down. She added some firewood into the stove.

Mammy Wang said coldly again, "The lady is already very uncomfortable and you still insist on opening the wound to take a look inside. Look at what heart liver you have! I say, lady, if you don't want to say it, then don't say it! "

Zhuo Xi was amused. Although Mammy Wang's character was cold, she was a considerate person. But if the two of them were singing a double play, then it would be lively. She continued to pitifully pull on the corner of her clothes and her eyes started to tear up.

When Ms Wu saw this, "Mammy Wang, why are you interrupting? Oh my god, poor child, I saw this. She had been on her way here. It's been hard on you, the young lady of the Guan family, to not have a servant girl to serve you. Did you encounter any danger on the road? This wrist of yours. . . " She was just about to open Zhuo Xi's bandaged wrist," Let me take a look at the wound. "

Zhuo Xi quickly retracted her wrist," It's fine, it's fine. I just met a bear on the way and scratched it twice. "

"Hey, you met a blind man, right? Otherwise, you would be such a delicate young lady. If you really met a blind man, would you be able to stay safe and sound? " Mammy Wang spoke again.

Zhuo Xi rubbed her wrist. "Yes, it was at this foot of the mountain that I met a blind bear. Luckily Big Brother and the others happened to patrol the mountain and save me, otherwise. . . " She called Little White and Little White lazily crawled out and crawled beside her feet. Lady Wu was shocked.

"Along the way, I accompanied Little White. I met a few bad guys, but when I saw Little White, they all ran away. "

Wu Na patted her chest and heaved a sigh. "I knew it. How could I not have the ability to protect myself? Miss Wu has a life of fortune. "

"What life of fortune? I, I. . . "She couldn't continue.

Dowager Wu was simply scratching her heart and lungs. " What do you want, just say it quickly. "

"I, my family has arranged a marriage for me, it's. . . "

"So it's a marriage that escaped from marriage. Since ancient times, parents have been ordered by the matchmaker. Miss, escaping from marriage is not something to be proud of. " Mammy Wang said again.

"Escaping from the marriage also depends on the situation. Miss, you can speak slowly. I will help you analyze and analyze it. "

She talked about an old story about how a childhood friend and daughter were in love but was disliked by her father for being poor and loved by the rich. It immediately made Lady Wu's teary eyes flutter. Mammy Wang was silent at the side. She chatted a lot with the two women. She learned that the Wuliang Country she was currently in was one of the five countries on this continent, and it was the country with the most abundant resources. The previous king had just died seven days ago. Yesterday, he had buried a thousand slaves at the same time. She had been caught yesterday. She had been poisoned for some unknown reason, causing her, a soul from a different world, to enter this place.

She thought of the black bug in the sarcophagus. The dead Emperor probably didn't have a good end either. Using a thousand slaves to accompany him, it would be more accurate to call it the current Emperor Ren Xiao, or rather, it would be more accurate to say that he felt guilty. This secret matter of the royal family changing dynasties, there was no one who wasn't blood, bones, and bones that wasn't shocking.

Guangan Marquis, who was guarding the Royal Mausoleum, was the seventh brother of the current king. He was trusted because of his discomfort. The Royal Mausoleum had been built for more than a year, and it finally came in handy. When this matter was over, it was said that he would be sent to the western border to guard the border.

She talked a lot until Mammy Wang finished preparing everyone's breakfast. Zhuo Xi was about to get up and go back to her room to eat breakfast when she saw Madam Wu holding onto her knee and standing there stiffly, looking like she was in unbearable pain.

She could not help but step forward and ask, "Aunt Wu, what is wrong with you?"

Dowager Wu bent her body and did not move, "Nothing, nothing. It's an old problem. I've been sitting here for a long time. Once I get up, my body will stiffen. I'll be fine as long as I recover my strength in a while. "

"Let me take a look at your hand. " Zhuo Xi pulled her hand over and saw that the joints in the middle of her four fingers were slightly deformed and protruding. She pinched Dowager Wu's frozen knee. It also seemed to have a faint subcuticular knot. Her expression turned stern. "Aunt Wu. This may be rheumatism arthritis, an irreversible disease. From now on, you must pay attention to your diet. Don't eat sour or salty food, don't eat seafood. Pay attention to drinking food that is cool and detoxifying. "

Mammy Wang was a little gloating, "It seems that you will be jealous of anything you eat in the future. Now you have suffered, right?"

Dowager Wu's face wrinkled, "I am old and have a heavy taste. Nothing tastes good. Don't put some sour or salty food in it. I can't eat it. " She turned to Zhuo Xi. "Miss Wu, do you know medicine? Can my illness be cured? "

Zhuo Xi said, "When I was at home, I was so idle that I read a few medical books. This illness of yours is called rheumatism. It is a long-term erosion of wind, cold, damp, and evil. It produces a harmful substance that causes nerve toxins in the joints. There are prescriptions, but the effects are not obvious. You can only slowly pay attention to the diet and adjust it. This is the root. "

"Since it is incurable, what will happen in the future?" Madam Wu became anxious.

"It is possible that her limbs will be deformed and her legs will not be able to move. Her fingers will be stiff and she will not be able to take the chopsticks. She will also be unable to do other things. "

"Do you have a prescription for soup?"

"It can be used to defend against oneself by one tael, one tael of astragalus, half tael of weed removal, half tael of licorice, seven tael of stir-frying, and three times a day. "

Wu Na answered haltingly. Suddenly she thought of something and looked at Mammy Wang. Mammy Wang understood and asked, "If it is not good enough, do you have any dietary attention?"

Zhuo Xi looked up and said, "There are many reasons for bad for the line of work. Without a pulse or seeing the person in person, I am unable to make a judgment. "

"That's right, that's right, that's right. It was this woman who was rude. This child of mine is also an illness brought about by the mother's womb. He has already been ill for more than ten years. Many famous doctors are at a loss on what to do, so how can he be treated with just a few words?"

How many famous doctors have seen a child of a woman? Perhaps the person she was talking about. . . Zhuo Xi covered her mouth and smiled but did not say it out loud. She only said, "But now, summer and autumn are alternating. Wet and hot steam can be eaten more sour and sweet food. We can use bitter food such as lotus seeds, lily, carrots, granules of sandalwood, lotus roots, soybean kernels, corn, grapevines, yellow pears, longans, peaches of peach, pineapple, cantaloupe, and so on. It helps to relieve the spleen and dampen the moisture. "

When Mammy Wang heard this, she hurriedly noted it down. Although she was puzzled by a few names and did not know what they were, she did not ask too much. She turned around and went to the kitchen cabinet to find some food.

Zhuo Xi said her goodbyes and returned to her own room.

When she passed by the bushes, she let Little White out and let it find food by itself. Along the way, she picked a few more blooming flowers and went back.

When she returned to the house, she met Xiaohu. Xiaohu smiled and greeted her, "Miss Zhuo. "

She raised her eyes. "When there are people, you have to call me Miss Wu. "

"Yes, Miss Wu. "

"[Is your hand alright?]"

"Look, it's fine now," said Wang Yao. He stretched out his arm. The green color had already faded and the swelling had also disappeared.

"It's good that you're fine. "

"Miss Wu, I came to tell you that all the people living here and outside are men, you. . . "

"I know, Wuh Xing told me. Don't worry. I won't run around. I just went to a nearby field to pick a few flowers. " Xiaohu looked at the flowers in her arms and rubbed his head. "Alright. Call me if you need anything. We'll be outside. "

Zhuo Xi nodded and opened the door to enter. She placed the flowers on the table and took out a small bowl and a can from the kitchen from her long sleeves. She sighed. The equipment here was simple and crude. She could only try to extract something useful from the flower juice.

It would be great if Little White came back.

As she was thinking, Little White had already peeked in through the crack in the door. It still had the Detoxification Red Fruit that she had eaten earlier in its mouth. "Hahaha, Lil' White, you really are a roundworm in my stomach. How do you know that I'm thinking about this red fruit?"

Lil' White seemed to have gotten used to her flattery. He minded his own business as he climbed onto her bed and went to sleep under the covers.

She suddenly had a feeling that she was going to do something big. She began to play with her flowers.

She wanted to use the existing conditions to grasp a technique so that she could leave this place seven days later. She could either have a way to make money or starve to death.

Wuh Xing wanted it every night. He came to take a look at her. Perhaps he was worried about her, or perhaps he was afraid that she would run away. WATERER, WOCARES

Zhuo Xi was still minding her own business as she fiddled with her perfume. She had already found the development plan that she relied on to survive.

On the morning of the seventh day, she still carried the food box to the kitchen and bid farewell to the two women. As soon as she stepped into the kitchen, Dowager Wu quickly stood up from the chair in front of the stove. "Miss Wu, you're here. " She said with a smile.

"What's wrong? What makes you so happy?" She looked at Mammy Wang's face and seemed to be very happy.

"Oh, it's nothing. It's nothing. I've listened to you these few days. When I woke up in the morning, my fingers were no longer numb. My legs have also become much more flexible. I am happy! Thank you, miss. "

" No way. I can see that your face is about to bloom. Tell me, is it that your son is getting married? " Zhuo Xi teased her. Wu Na had a son working in the capital and Wu Na had been looking for someone to look at a suitable girl.

"Haha, no, no. " Lady Wu's smile became brighter and brighter. "I have never found a suitable family. "

"That is. . . " She saw that Mammy Wang's cold and hard face also showed a gentle expression. "You are going back to the capital?" To make them so happy at the same time, there was no other way than to leave the outskirts of the capital and return to the capital to reunite with their family.

"Aiyo, what a clever girl. " Lady Wu slapped her thigh.

Mammy Wang coughed.

Dowager Wu's smile stopped abruptly. "Uh, actually, it's nothing. "

Zhuo Xi understood. After the last ceremony ended today, there would probably be a small team left in Royal Mausoleum to guard the city. The rest of the people would have to return to the capital. This was Royal Mausoleum. It might not be far from the capital, but in this era where transportation was not very convenient, it was not easy to reunite with family.

"Actually, my big brother told me about it, but you didn't tell me about it. I am here today to say goodbye to the two of you. I'll be going back first tomorrow. "

"What? You're going home tomorrow? The arranged marriage at home. . . " Dowager Wu asked with concern.

"Father promised to delay it for a while, I'll leave it to fate. " Zhuo Xi had a helpless expression.

"Then you. . . " Dowager Wu was about to step forward to say something when she saw a young man running in anxiously and shouting, "Quickly!"

"Lord Ziran, what's wrong?" Mammy Wang's cold face, which had not changed for thousands of years, also revealed an anxious look.

Ziran? cumin powder? Zhuo Xi almost laughed out loud. She really missed the taste of the cumin mutton.

Ziran looked at Zhuo Xi and ignored her presence. He said, "Hurry up and fry that emergency medicine. Master, he. . . "

"What? Isn't it not the time for him to act up?" Mammy Wang scrambled to the top of the cupboard to search.

When Ms Wu heard that, she also felt that something was not right. "Where's Imperial Physician Wu? He. . . "

"Empress heard that she is about to come to the basin. Imperial Physician Wu was summoned back to the Palace to serve a few days ago. He originally left a few emergency pills but was knocked down by a white snake on the ground. I said that I was afraid that the pills would be infected with snake venom, so I didn't dare to take them. "

White snake? The two women immediately looked at Zhuo Xi. Zhuo Xi also became nervous. If Little White did it, she would not be able to escape responsibility.

Wu Na immediately said, "Ziran, this Miss Wu has some medical knowledge. If I am willing. . . "

Before she could finish, Ziran's eyes were filled with hope, "Miss, you know medical skills?"

"I know a little, but I don't know. . . "

Ziran interrupted her again, "Miss, follow me first. I'll tell you as I walk. "

He pulled Zhuo Xi's sleeve and walked forward. On the way, Ziran roughly told her about the patient's condition. "I have been suffering from the root cause of my illness since I was young. The imperial physician said that it was the accumulation of cold poison that was difficult to eradicate. When the illness worsens, sometimes it will act up and lie on the bed for seven or eight days without being able to move. "

Cold illness was not good for one's health. Isn't this a standard match for the male lead in a novel about transmigration? Zhuo Xi curled her lips. This so-called cold disease. . . It had been proven by countless transmigrators that this disease was untreatable in modern times. She did not think that a half-bucket of water like her, who was an amateur in medicine, could cure this disease. If she said it, it meant that she didn't say it. She could only go and see how Little White was doing. When she thought of this, she was shocked. "You just said that there was a white snake. That white snake now. . . "

"It escaped, I was just about to catch it when I suddenly fell down. "

Fortunately, Zhuo Xi heaved a sigh of relief. She saw Ziran suddenly stop her. It turned out that he had already arrived in front of the house. "Miss Wu, please wait here for a moment. I will come after I invite you. "

Zhuo Xi made an inviting gesture. Ziran went into the house.
