Chapter 33 Living Together(1/2)
Fu Wen walked out of the room, looking a little dazed.
Lian Zhou came up with tea and asked, "Master, are you awake? Do you have any orders?"
Fu Wen shook his head and glanced at the tea in Lian Zhou's hand, "Young Master has no instructions, and the girl has given him tea."
This made Lian Zhou raise his eyebrows in surprise, but then he heard Fu Wen say something in a daze.
"Girl, not only did you do your job, but you also ordered me to do something."
"Huh?" Lian Zhou asked Fu Wen quickly, "What did the girl tell you?"
Fu Wen followed Qin Tian's original words.
"And, more importantly, the young master asked me to do as the girl says."
Lian Zhou blinked his eyes, thoughtfully.
But Fu Wen couldn't figure it out, he was just a little confused.
"Ever since I followed the young master, I vowed not to take orders from anyone else in my life. Now that I have to take orders from a girl, wouldn't it mean that I have broken my oath?"
Lian Zhou heard his muttering and laughed, secretly thinking that Guard Fu was really a stickler.
He enlightened him, "But the girl's orders are also the son's. How can this be called taking orders from others?"
When he said this, Fu Wen turned around again and scratched his head.
"That's right."
Fu Wen scratched his head and left, and Lian Zhou didn't go in to deliver tea again.
However, when the old steward, Uncle Zhou, received the news, he was frightened and rushed over.
When Lian Zhou walked to the outer courtyard, he saw that Uncle Zhou was about to eat Chang Zi. The boy was so frightened that he knelt down to beg for mercy.
"The little one didn't protect the girl well, but the girl wasn't hurt, she wasn't hurt!"
Instead, Changzi fell into the trapping hole and was stabbed in the leg by a sharp thorn.
Uncle Zhou was about to scold him again, but Lian Zhou quickly stepped forward to persuade him.
"Don't get angry. The girl is really fine. It's just the young master's intention. It won't be safe for the girl to live outside from now on. I have already told the girl that she will be brought to Liefeng Mountain House to live there."
This was an important matter. As soon as Uncle Zhou heard this, he forgot about Chang Zi. Lian Zhou quickly signaled Chang Zi to leave quickly with his eyes, and arranged the Guo Yuting in the Liefeng Mountain House that Qin Shen had not used much.
Let the girl stay.
Uncle Zhou was very satisfied with this. The two largest courtyards in Liefeng Shanfang are Kuoshan Hall in the east and Guoyuting in the west. The former is currently occupied by Qin Shen, and the latter is suitable for Qin Tian.
Compared to Chang Zi, Uncle Zhou was much more pleased with Lian Zhou and even praised him a few times.
"You are considerate in everything you do. No wonder you are valued by the young master. In the past few days, the young master and the girl will be living together. If I have any inconvenience, I will come here to make trouble for you."
Lian Zhou was only responsible for taking care of the young master's general affairs in the past, but from today on, he will also take care of the girl.
He quickly said, "Just give me your instructions. If Lian Zhou doesn't understand anything, I'll ask you for advice first."
The brother and sister had almost no interactions with each other before, but this time they were actually quite happy.
The old steward also became more and more satisfied. Compared to the courtyard he bought for the girl that was being repaired, he liked the Liefeng Mountain House more.
He feels more at ease when the girl lives here.
Before the two of them had finished speaking, Fu Wen led people in a hurry to Kuoshan Hall.
The person who came was none other than the commander Qin Guanzhong who had just received the news.
It's just that he brought another person with him.
The man's gray hair stood up, with a wicker hairpin, and he wore a moon-white Taoist robe. He walked as if he were walking on the wind, but he had a stern look on his face, and ordinary people did not dare to approach him.
When Lian Zhou and the old steward saw Qin Guanzhong and this person coming, they stopped joking and stepped forward to salute.
"Sir, Taoist Priest Shouyuan."
Taoist Shouyuan looked stern, and no one dared to joke, so they immediately led him to Kuoshan Hall.
In the bedroom, Qin Tian was introducing his medicinal tea to Qin Shen in a low voice.
"It's a little bitter, just a little bit. Brother, just be patient."
Qin Shen doesn't feel like a person who can't bear any hardship.
I just looked at the serious look of the girl sitting on the embroidered bed in front of the bed, and didn't reveal it.
He smiled and responded, "Okay, I'll bear with you for a while."
After saying that, he took the tea from Qin Tian and drank it.
"Is it painful?" Qin Tian asked quickly.
Staring at his brother's face, he paused.
"Is it too bitter?"
She became nervous again. She had tasted the tea before and it was only a little bitter.
But the elder brother frowned, looking thoughtful.
"There must be something wrong with my sense of taste. I think this tea is full of sweetness."
"Ah?" It was completely different from Qin Tian's guess.
Qin Shen looked at the people on the embroidered pier.
He just thought about it briefly, and she nervously clenched her hands again.
But what he said later changed the subject. As soon as those words came out, her eyes were like the wick of a hanging lamp being turned aside, and the dimmed light suddenly brightened up.
"Is that so?!" Her eyes were crooked, "As long as it's not bitter, it's fine. I did add two more spoons of honey."
She said, "I will send another pot to my brother tomorrow!"
Qin Shen looked at her appearance, and his heart seemed to light up. He briefly put aside the pain, and unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth.
He was about to say something when there were footsteps outside.
Then Fu Wen sent a message.
"Sir, the master and Taoist Shouyuan are here."
After saying this, Qin Shen straightened his expression.
"welcome."
Qin Tian didn't know who Taoist Master Shouyuan was. When he heard his father was coming, he bowed and waited.
Qin Guanzhong and Shouyuan entered the room and quickly reached Qin Shen's bed. Qin Shen wanted to get out of bed, but Qin Guanzhong pushed him back.
"I've hired an old doctor from outside the city for you. He'll be there in about an hour. Is he okay?"
Qin Shen's arrow hit hard, but it did not damage any vital parts.
He told his father not to be nervous.
"Since the medicine has been applied, there is no need for the old doctor to come in person."
"It's still necessary." Qin Guanzhong said, "The weather is getting hotter and the wounds are getting worse. Don't underestimate it! Let the imperial doctor take a look at it."
Qin Shen didn't think it was the case, but he still nodded.
"That's fine."
After saying that, he looked at the person who had been silent for a long time.
"Why is Master here?"
Qin Tian stood on the other side of the round table, looking at the strange Taoist priest, and heard that his brother actually called him "Master".
She understood immediately.
This person should be the Taoist priest who went to Fengguan in Tulan Mountain, and her brother Qin Shen had no choice but to be sent to the Taoist Temple on the mountain to grow up because his mother and family had conflicts when he was born.
From the time he was born until he came down the mountain at the age of five, it was probably this Taoist priest who taught him, so he was called Master.
Qin Tian's guess was good.
Taoist Priest Shouyuan's common surname is Zhang. At this moment, Zhang Shouyuan saw that Qin Shen's face was pale and his lips were dark. When he saw that he was completely unable to move due to the arrow in his left arm, the serious look on his face became even more serious.
He spoke.
"Young Master still underestimated the enemy too much. Although the arrow was unprepared, Young Master was not able to dodge it. This shows that he is lazy in his daily practice."
These words were so harsh that Qin Tian was shocked as he listened.
She could not imagine that her brother-in-law, whom even her father relied on, could be so harsh and reprimanded her without even a word of comfort.
But both father and brother are accustomed to this.
The elder brother lowered his eyes.
"Master said it is right."
With his attitude, Taoist Shouyuan had no intention of stopping.
