Chapter 24 Persuasion(1/2)
Li Huaiyun asked the servant who was doing odd jobs in the hospital.
The servant pointed inside and said, "Madam, you are boiling medicine at the back of the hospital!"
"Ah!" He thought, he usually asked his servants to do such things, but why did he cook the medicine himself this time?
"Is this medicine so important? Does my aunt have to cook it herself?"
"Madam said you have to check it yourself before you can rest assured!"
Li Huaiyun walked into the inner room and came to the back of the medical hall. Although the place was backed by the Wei River, there were many stoves for decoction in a small open space, making it quite hot.
"Auntie!" He shouted towards Hongyun.
At this time, Hongyun was bending over, fanning carefully to control the heat. Her posture made her figure more graceful. The maid Mingyue beside her was also fanning.
Hong Yun straightened up and glanced at Li Huaiyun, "Little bastard, why are you here at the medical clinic?"
Li Huaiyun saw Hong Yun, who was sweating profusely. His originally fair face had started to turn red due to the heat and sweating.
Hey! In order to earn more money, his aunt had to cook the medicine herself. He felt guilty for a while, but it wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for his impulsiveness.
"It's so late, why don't you go back for dinner!"
"This is the medicine for the ladies on the street. It must be cooked tonight!" Hong Yun continued to fan herself and was busy by the stove. She was already dripping with sweat.
She wondered why Li Huaiyun came to the medical clinic. Looking at the frivolous smile on his face, she felt very annoyed in her heart, "Little bastard, what are you doing here? Why don't you go back to practice."
"You have already entered the essence refining realm, why don't you concentrate on refining your essence and strive to reach a higher level?"
Li Huaiyun leaned against the door and said with a smile, "My cultivation talent is different from ordinary people. Others find high realms to open the body's valves and then swallow the elixir! I just need to find a strong opponent to practice with!"
"Shit! You'd better change your bragging habit first!"
"Auntie, why don't you believe me?"
Hongyun turned her head away and said, "I believe you, you idiot! Nothing happens, just go back and practice as soon as possible."
"Of course something happened! There is a lantern festival going on in Weihe, so I came to see my aunt and we went to enjoy the lanterns together!"
"Little bastard, you really have nothing to do? Do you think I'm in the mood to go see the flower lanterns now?" Hongyun complained, thinking that Li Huaiyun's brain was filled with water. It's like this now, and there are still flower viewing lanterns.
.
"It's too late to make money, why do you still want to watch the lantern show?"
Li Huaiyun pretended to be mysterious and said, "Does it mean that if you have money, your aunt can go to the lantern festival?"
Hongyun kept fanning herself, "It's not about having money, it's about having a lot of money!"
"There will be a lot of money in the future, but I can't get it now!"
"Stop daydreaming!"
Li Huaiyun took out a bag of silver coins, held it in his hand, and then tossed it gently, "Are these coins enough for my aunt to go to a lantern festival?"
Hong Yun turned her head and looked at the bag in Li Huaiyun's hand. There was a slight sound of silver colliding inside, and her face darkened.
She handed the fan over, "Mingyue! I'll leave this to you first!"
"Madam, are you going to the lantern festival?"
Hong Yun's pair of slender willow eyebrows stood up, and her beautiful eyes widened, "Where are you going to the lantern festival? I'm going to teach that little brat a lesson."
Ah! Li Huaiyun took the silver coins thrown into the air and said, "Auntie, why do you have to teach me a lesson?"
Hongyun punched him hard on the head, "You little brat, did you do something bad? Did you accept a bribe?"
"This is my money!"
"Get out! When you entered the prison, I searched your room. There was no money except a few copper coins. You still have three days to get your salary. Now you tell me that this is your money? Who are you kidding?
Woolen cloth?"
"Bunny, the source of your money is unknown."
Hongyun pointed at Li Huaiyun's forehead, "I know you want to help the family, but not in this way..."
"Hey! Hongyun, are you still sneaking into my room?"
Hongyun hit Li Huaiyun on the head again and said, "Call Auntie!"
"Oh! Auntie, why don't you give me a chance to explain! This silver is indeed this month's salary!"
"real?"
"Of course it's true. Anyone who accepts bribes can get such a small amount of money."
"Why is it so early?"
"I applied with Sikyong because I was afraid that my family would not have enough money and there would not be a drop of oil in the dishes."
When Hongyun learned that she had misunderstood Li Huaiyun, she felt a little ashamed, and her attitude softened a little, "Okay, this time you are serious!"
"Auntie, can we go to the lantern festival together?"
"We went to some lantern festival and didn't you see me boiling medicine?"
Li Huaiyun spread his hands and said helplessly, "What do you mean, aunt, I just got beaten in vain!"
Hong Yun directly raised her hand. This action made Li Huaiyun subconsciously cover her head. The anxious look on her face had dissipated. She placed her palm on Li Huaiyun's head and rubbed it gently a few times.
"Is this okay?"
"Oh! I just want my aunt to go to the lantern festival with me! By the way, I can ask some questions about medical skills."
"Medical problem?"
Hong Yun would not believe Li Huaiyun's nonsense. This kid hated medical skills from the bottom of his heart. "What on earth do you want to do?"
"Add another hundred taels!"
"What?"
"Auntie will accompany me to the lantern festival. I will add another hundred taels to my salary next month to support my family."
"You kid, you can tell me all the lies! If you can come up with a hundred taels by then, you can let me do whatever you want!"
"Hey! Auntie, you said this yourself. Don't break your promise when the time comes."
Li Huaiyun quietly asked Sikyong. The reward was more than two hundred taels. It was nothing if he took out one hundred taels. "Auntie, can I go to the lantern festival?"
"Screw you! I don't believe you can come up with a hundred taels." Hong Yun raised her hand, preparing to wake up this liar.
Li Huaiyun stood there, his expression became quite serious, giving people a special aura, "I can get out of prison, isn't it worthy of your belief?"
Hongyun was speechless. She calmed down and carefully recalled the experience of that day. She also felt that he was indeed different from before.
"Okay! Just trust you once, don't let me default on your debt. If you do, I will deduct it from the gift money when you marry a wife in the future! Go and make up for it yourself."
Why does this woman want to go so far? Li Huaiyun crossed his arms over his chest and said with a smile, "Auntie, if I marry you, I will save a hundred taels!"
When the maid who was helping to cook the medicine heard this, she almost lost her grip on the fan in her hand, burst out laughing, and then tried her best to hold it in so as not to laugh.
"Li Huaiyun!" Hong Yun's face turned redder, her eyes widened with anger, and she put her hands on her slender waist, "You bastard, what are you talking about?"
She started to hit Li Huaiyun on the head!
"Oh, aunt, stop knocking! Stop knocking! If you knock again, your head will crack."
"It should have been broken a long time ago! You bastard, you took advantage of me."
"Let's get down to business, aunt, can you leave?"
Hongyun glanced at the medicine jars and felt a little worried about the maid, "Look, the medicine is almost ready, just wait a moment!"
"Ming Yue! Increase the fire and try to fry it as soon as possible!"
"Madam, I'm fanning myself," Ming Yue responded, shaking her sore arm.
Seeing this going on, Li Huaiyun thought that by the time he went to the lantern festival, it would have already ended. "Let me do it!" He took the fan and quickly modified it to expand the area of the fan.
With his full force of waving, these medicines were quickly fried.
"It's time to go!" Li Huaiyun gasped for air. Although he had entered the realm of refining and had different energy than ordinary people, high-intensity exercise was still very tiring. "Hurry up and ask your servants to tidy up the medical center.
"
Hongyun lowered her head and glanced at her clothes, "I still have to go back to take a shower and change clothes! How can I go out wearing this? I haven't dressed up yet!"
"Okay, okay! Auntie, let's hurry up."
Fortunately, the medical clinic was on the same street as Li's residence. Hongyun was pushed by Li Huaiyun and trotted back to Li's residence.
Li Huaiyun sat at the stone table outside the wing, patiently waiting for Hongyun to take a bath, change clothes and dress up.
Oops! This woman is in trouble when she goes out. According to his experience in his previous life, this process of going out will take at least half an hour.
There are not so many cosmetics in this era, so it should be faster. He didn't have much hope. The lantern festival has started now.
The most important purpose of his trip this time was to get to know the Jiaofang Secretary called Fengxinlou. After all, someone there wrote a letter asking the official to go during the lantern festival. There must be something inside.
It would be better if you could find the person who wrote the letter.
What surprised Li Huaiyun was that he didn't wait too long before Hongyun opened the door of the room and walked out.
