After the tender beauty was reborn, the husband of the god of war competed for favor

Chapter 33 This fire is really timely

No matter how chaotic the main hall of the Duke's Mansion was, Song Jiuxi and Yan Shubai returned to the small courtyard, feeling very at ease.

It was just the beginning of March, and the weather was no longer so cold, but Yan Shubai's body still couldn't bear it. Song Jiuxi still let Hanqiao burn a charcoal stove in the house, and stuffed a gilt hand stove in his arms.

Yan Shubai was still wrapped in a fur cloak and his legs were covered with a blanket.

Compared to him who was wrapped up tightly, Song Jiuxi was dressed much more relaxedly. Song Jiuxi did not wear the jacket and skirt that women often wear nowadays, but a red shirt with a cyan lining. The waist is black

There was a soft sword wrapped in his belt, and a safety buckle hung at his waist.

Simple and refreshing, as clean as snow, just like her.

The little kitchen knew that they were eating in the courtyard, and soon prepared a table of rich meals for the table.

In just a few days, Song Jiuxi fell in love with the food cooked by the chef in the small kitchen in Yan Shubai's courtyard. Every dish cooked in this kitchen suited her taste. Song Jiuxi was thinking about what to say when she left Yan Mansion.

This chef must be taken away.

I don’t know if Yan Shu and Bai Tong agree.

Song Jiuxi ate seriously. Although Yan Shubai was drinking his porridge beside him, he seemed to have a big appetite and drank two bowls in one go.

He raised his eyebrows and looked at Song Jiuxi with a smile. Song Jiuxi usually had a very cold look on his face, and only when he was eating did he reveal his daughter's cuteness.

So on the second day after Song Jiuxi married into the house, Yan Shubai asked Luo Feng to escort the best chef in the capital.

From then on, he also developed a hobby of feeding.

After eating, Hanqiao brought the medicine bowl.

The smile on Yan Shubai's face immediately dropped, and his expression became cold. But most people couldn't see this change in him, and even if they could, they wouldn't think it was because he didn't want to take medicine.

When Song Jiuxi saw that he refused to take the medicine, he looked like a charming girl.

This suddenly reminded her of a girl she met in Shu when she was five years old.

At that time, she was with her mother's army and was taken care of by Aunt Qing. When the war in Shu ended, they could return to the capital.

Song Jiuxi almost grew up in the army when she was a child. No matter where her mother went to fight, she would be taken with her. Over time, the military camp became the place she was most familiar with.

Moreover, she, a girl, deliberately dressed up as a boy and smeared ashes on her face in order to blend in easily in the military camp.

Later, she met another child about the same age as her in the military camp. Although they were both wearing boy's clothes, the child was so good-looking that he looked like a girl at first glance.

Later, Song Jiuxi also discovered that the girl was afraid of drinking medicine because the Sichuan land was hot and humid and had miasma, so the army doctor prepared medicine for them. But when it came time to drink medicine, she would find various excuses to avoid it.

Song Jiuxi wanted to be a hero like her mother since she was a child, so she always drank medicine without complaining.

But it is normal for a good-looking girl to be afraid of hardship. Song Jiuxi still remembered that in order to coax her to take medicine, he secretly went to the mountains to pick sour green fruits.

Later, the green fruit was so sour that the girl would rather drink medicine than eat the green fruit.

But then she followed her mother back to the capital and never saw the girl again. Before Song Jiuxi left, he reluctantly gave her his small wooden sword.

That was the first friend she made. Later she thought that the girl should be from a certain army garrison in Shu, because she had never seen that girl in the capital.

After so many years, Song Jiuxi had almost forgotten this person.

Today when I saw Yan Shubai drinking medicine, I somehow thought of the girl he met when he was young.

If Yan Shubai knew that she thought he was a woman, I don't know how he would be angry.

Hanqiao is not Yunqin, and Yan Shubai doesn't want to drink it, so she doesn't dare to persuade her. It's just that Doctor Luo ordered them to drink this medicine while keeping an eye on the young master.

Hanqiao was so anxious that she didn't know what to do and looked at Song Jiuxi with pitiful eyes.

Song Jiuxi was silent for a long time, then took the medicine bowl over and said, "I'll do it."

Hanqiao breathed a sigh of relief, but Yan Shubai's eyebrows jumped. After the last time, he didn't think Song Jiuxi would coax and feed him gently.

Song Jiuxi would definitely drink him as soon as she came up. She was his wife and he couldn't help but drink.

While Yan Shubai's mouth tightened, he was waiting for Song Jiuxi to pour the medicine.

Suddenly Song Jiuxi held up a spoon and handed it to Yan Shubai's mouth. Yan Shubai opened his mouth blankly and swallowed the bitter and explosive medicine in one gulp.

Song Jiuxi fed him spoonful after spoonful, carefully. Yan Shubai originally thought that feeding medicine was a very sweet thing between husband and wife, but now that Song Jiuxi fed him, it was like Ling Chi, torturing his already fragile body.

of taste.

"Madam, okay, okay, I'll drink it myself."

Yan Shubai stretched out his hand to take it, and Song Jiuxi let go of it with a pity. Seeing Yan Shubai gritting his teeth and drinking the medicine, she actually felt that General Ming Xiao, whom everyone feared, was a little cute.

Well, just a little bit.

In the early morning of the next day, after Song Jiuxi finished practicing martial arts, he suddenly noticed that Hanqiao was discussing something with a maid at the door of the courtyard.

Song Jiuxi asked: "What happened?"

Hanqiao and another maid hurriedly ran over. The maid Song Jiuxi remembered that she was also called Fu Cui in the courtyard.

Hanqiao said: "Young madam, something big happened in the house!"

"What could happen?" Song Jiuxi didn't take it seriously. Besides, what happened in Yanguo's palace had nothing to do with her.

Hanqiao seemed to be very excited. The little girl was impatient and couldn't explain it. In the end, Fucui told what happened.

It turns out that the family banquet at Yan Mansion broke up after Song Jiuxi and Yan Shubai left the table last night.

Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, the second Miss Sun, that is, Yan Yuening, was discovered when water ran out of her yard and the fire reached the roof of the house.

This alarmed the entire Yan Mansion, and everyone rushed over. Those who rescued people rescued people, and those who put out fires put out fires.

Speaking of this, Song Jiuxi remembered that she did know that there was a fire in the house last night, but the location of the fire was far away from them, and Song Jiuxi didn't care at all.

Only now did I know that it was Yan Yuening’s yard that was burned.

Song Jiuxi asked: "Why did the good thing catch on fire? Did someone set the fire?"

Fu Cui said: "The cause of the fire seems to be that the charcoal stove in the second lady's room was not extinguished. It caught on fire for some reason at night, and burned a cloak placed on the chair next to it. Then it got out of hand.

."

"Is anyone hurt?"

"No one was injured, but..." Fucui paused and continued, "When the second lady was rescued, there was someone else in the house, and that person was Master Li."

Seeing that Song Jiuxi seemed confused, Fucui explained: "This Young Master Li is a distant cousin of the Second Madam's family. He used to live in the mansion temporarily, but he left the mansion some time ago. Now I don't know how he got into the mansion.

They were still in the second lady’s room, and it is said that when the two came out, they didn’t even have any clothes on.”

Hanqiao nodded beside him: "Young madam, I heard from others that I went to the housekeeper's office to get the moon silver in the morning. Now everyone knows about the second young lady and the young master cousin. The master got angry and the second madam fainted.

"

After listening to this, Song Jiuxi couldn't help but sigh: "This fire burned so timely."

I don’t know if someone did it on purpose, but Yan Yuening’s reputation was ruined after this incident.
