Chapter 10 Chaotic reunion

Once I lay down, I couldn't get up, and I was so feverish that I couldn't stop talking, either calling "Xue Gong" or "Mother".I was unconscious during the illness, I only remembered that I had reached the shore, but I didn't know where I was lying.One day when I woke up in the middle of the night, I saw a person sitting under the lamp, and it was a woman, with a slender back, who seemed to be familiar, but I couldn't remember who it was for a while. "I'm dreaming?" Although she was talking in a low voice, she also alarmed the people under the lamp. She turned around and turned on the foreign lamp, allowing Hu Xueyan to see her face clearly—it was really like a dream, and she couldn’t even shout. come out!

"You, you look like Ah Qiao!" "I'm Ah Qiao!" She wiped away her tears and forced a smile, "Didn't you think it was me?" Hu Xueyan didn't answer, but forced himself to lift himself up.He was so weak that he was on the verge of falling, so Aqiao hurried up to support him. "What are you going to do? Do you want tea?" "No!" Hu Xueyan said with difficulty, "I want to see, am I dreaming? Where is this, are you really Aqiao?" "Yeah! I'm the real Aqiao. I came here to see you. You lie down and speak slowly if you have something to say."

There are too many words, I can't talk about it, in fact, my head is so dizzy, I can't even think about it.Hu Xueyan had no choice but to lie down, look up at the roof of the tent, and look sideways at Aqiao, first to figure out the situation from the time he got sick to now. "Where's the person?" He asked nonchalantly. "You mean that Young Master Xiao?" A-Qiao replied, "He sleeps in the outer room." Xiao Jiaji, who was in the outer room, had already heard the voice, and hurriedly put on his clothes and got up to visit him. Although Hu Xueyan looked haggard, but his eyes were clear, he asked in surprise and joy: "Mr. Hu, do you recognize me?" ?”

"You?" Hu Xueyan asked puzzledly, "Aren't you Jiaji?" "Where is this lady?" "She's Mrs. He." Hu Xueyan asked back, "Why are you asking this? It's like I don't even recognize people." "Yeah!" Xiao Jiaji smiled gratifiedly, "Mr. Hu, you really didn't recognize anyone a few days ago. The humidity and temperature are really fierce, and now you've finally 'turned' back." "It's so powerful!" Hu Xueyan himself couldn't believe it, and said with a sigh of relief, "I didn't even think of it myself. How long has it been?"

"Eight days." "This is where?" "In the British Concession, in Boss Yang's cell." Xiao Jiaji said, "Mr. Hu, you are so stupid, don't talk too much, eat some porridge first, and then take medicine. After a good night's sleep, you will be refreshed tomorrow. Listen to us carefully." I will tell you in detail." This "we" obviously includes Sister Aqiao, so she interjected: "Master Xiao's words are right, it's important that you recover from your illness first." "It doesn't matter." Hu Xueyan said, "I don't know anything about the situation, and I feel very bored. How is Hangzhou?"

"No news." When Hu Xueyan turned to ask Sister Aqiao, she was standing up, walking outside, and said, "I'm going to make porridge." Looking at the still graceful back, and seeing Xiao Jiaji's mysterious expression of pretending not to care, Hu Xueyan still had the feeling of reuniting in a dream, and asked Xiao Jiaji in a low voice: "How did she come here? " "I arrived yesterday." Xiao Jiaji replied, "Come to see me as soon as I arrive—I saw her once at my teacher's wife, so I recognize her. She said that she heard that Mr. Hu was seriously ill, so she came here to serve her. I want to live here. My wife knows about this, so I have to keep her."

Hearing this, Hu Xueyan was dumbfounded for a while, then Fang Shi frowned and said, "I don't understand what you said, and I get a headache when I think about it. How could such a thing happen?" "No wonder Mr. Hu. It's a long story, and I don't know very well. According to her, she went to see my wife, and my wife just received a letter from me. She heard that Mr. Hu was seriously ill, and she wanted to come to take care of her. Of course, my wife agreed. , I asked Master to arrange, and sent an escort to come by British ship." "Strange!" Hu Xueyan said, "What's her surname? My surname is Gu Yuehu. Why does the concubine of the He family take care of me as a patient?"

"That's needless to say? Of course it's in He's house." Xiao Jiaji said, "It's obvious, but she's too embarrassed to say it, and I'm too embarrassed to inquire about it. You can ask Mr. Hu yourself and she will understand. gone." This time, I roughly understood the ins and outs.He was thinking in his heart, Sister Aqiao would not elope, otherwise Gu Yingchun and his wife would not send someone to escort her to Ningbo. "However, are her words reliable? How do you know that your wife agreed to her coming?" "That's right! The escort is Lao Huang, the old shop assistant in my master's cell." Hu Xueyan was relieved.Lao Huang is also called "Ningbo Lao Huang", and he also knows this person.

Hu Xueyan wanted to ask more questions, but when he heard footsteps, he stopped talking and looked at the door of the room.The door curtain was lifted, and the first thing I saw was Aqiao's back. She was carrying a tray and couldn't spare a hand to open the door curtain, so she came in sideways. So Xiao Jiaji helped put a kang in the middle of the bed, and brought a tray, which contained a can of fragrant japonica rice porridge, and four dishes of light and delicate side dishes, especially one bad egg, which was a favorite of Hu Xueyan, so when he saw it, I felt body fluid in my mouth, and rumbling sounds in my stomach.

"Mr. Hu," Xiao Jiaji specifically explained the source of these foods, "Even the rice for cooking porridge was brought by Aunt He from Shanghai." "Master Xiao," Sister Aqiao said, "Please call me Aqiao." This is an obvious sign that he has been relegated from the He family.Originally called "Aunt He" was harsh, so Xiao Jiaji readily accepted it, but out of respect for Hu Xueyan, it seemed inconvenient to call him by his first name, so he only asked him for advice with winks. "Call her Miss Aqiao." "Yes." Xiao Jiaji called out in a cordial and dignified voice, "Sister Aqiao!"

"Yeah!" She responded without any doubt, really like a big sister, "This is like a family." It was inconvenient for him and Hu Xueyan to express these words.Sister Aqiao didn't say any more, she just lowered her eyes and filled the porridge for Hu Xueyan. The porridge was steaming, so she sucked her moist lips and blew until it wasn't too hot, before she put it down.Then he took out a white handkerchief from his armpit, wiped the chopsticks, and brought the porridge bowl to Hu Xueyan, but asked again: "Do you want me to feed you?" These words reminded Xiao Jiaji that there was such a considerate person serving him, so why should he still stand here and get in the way, so he walked out quietly with a smile. All four eyes were looking at his back, waiting to disappear before looking back.They looked at each other without saying a word, and stared blankly for a while, suddenly, sister Aqiao's eyes turned red, she hurriedly lowered her head, picked up the handkerchief, and pretended to blow her nose to wipe her eyes. Hu Xueyan also had mixed feelings, but he didn't want to ask easily.Since she was afraid of seeing people with tears in her eyes, he pretended not to know, and picked up his chopsticks to eat porridge. I don't care about anything else when I eat porridge.I hadn't imported any grain of rice for several days, so I was really hungry, and I ate with a sigh of relief.When he finished eating a bowl, sister Aqiao was already waiting with a spoon. While adding porridge for him, she smiled happily and said, "It's better than the one released from the ghost gate on July 15th!" Having said that, after he finishes eating the second bowl, he is not allowed to eat again, for fear that he will hurt his stomach just after his illness recovers.But Hu Xueyan felt unsatisfied, so he just added half a bowl for him. "Ah!" Putting down his chopsticks, he sighed, "I'm full!" Sister Aqiao knew why he was emotional.She also knew very well about the situation in Hangzhou, but she was just afraid of making him sad by mentioning it, so she ignored what he said and just packed up the dishes and walked out. "Aqiao, don't go, let's talk." "I'll be right there." She said, "Your medicine is there, so it should be ready." Not long after, the decocted medicine was delivered, and he was served after eating, and advised him to sleep.Hu Xueyan refused, saying that he was in good spirits, and that the scar on his leg was itchy. "This is a good sign. The wound is growing new flesh, and the person is recovering." She said, "I will wash your feet for you, and you will feel more comfortable." It’s okay not to mention, but when it comes to Hu Xueyan’s whole body itching, he wished he could have a quick soak in the “big soup”—he, like Yangzhou people, has long had the idea of ​​“wrapping water in the morning and wrapping the skin in the afternoon” habit.Since Hangzhou has been in a tight situation, I haven't soaked in the "bath pond".This time when I arrived in Shanghai, I couldn't take a bath because of an injury on my leg.Although I wiped my body once with the help of the male servant of the Gu family, and changed from the inside out to the new clothes that Grandma Qigu asked the tailor to make for him, but after this trek at sea, I was sweating from worry and fright, and I was dry and dry. Out, I do not know how many times.His body was full of dirt and greasy, and he felt very uncomfortable. He really wanted to take a bath, but he had no reason to work for Sister Aqiao. He was thinking like this in his heart, but she did what she said, turned around and walked out, found a brand-new tall wooden basin from nowhere, brought some hot water from Choshi, poured it into the basin, and lifted the quilt Grab his feet. "Don't, don't!" Hu Xueyan shrank back, "My feet haven't been washed since I got on the boat from Shanghai, they are too dirty." "What are you afraid of?" Sister Aqiao said without hesitation, "I have come all the way here to serve the sick. As long as you recover well, I will be happier than anything else." Hu Xueyan was grateful to hear these two words. Merge with emotion.In the chaos of the war and near death, thinking of relatives whose whereabouts are unknown, the people in Hangzhou who are about to starve to death, and Wang Youling who is trapped in a desperate situation and sees going to hell step by step, he often asks himself: What is the purpose of life in this world? Suffer this kind of pain that is worse than death?But now it is different, people live in the world, there is both suffering and happiness, whether it is suffering or happiness, it all depends on what you do.It is really what is said in "Taishang Induction": "There is no way to misfortune or fortune, only people call themselves." Thinking about it like this, I felt that my heart was like a spring on a dead tree, and it worked again.My brain is also flexible. I didn't bother to think about everything at first, but now I think a lot and think quickly.After Sister Aqiao washed his feet for him, she smiled again: "Aqiao, send the Buddha to the West Paradise, and wipe my body again." "It's not quite right. You're weak and you can't stand the cold." "It doesn't matter!" Hu Xueyan stretched out his skinny arm, pounded it twice in the air, and said vigorously, "I think I can get up already." "Nonsense! You sleep well for me." She stuffed his feet and hands into the quilt, forced him to fall asleep, and tucked the quilt tightly. "Really. Ah Qiao, I'm ready." "How can there be such a thing? Such a disease, how can it be cured? There is no such spiritual way to eat elixir." "When people are in good spirits on happy occasions, you are the elixir. Once the elixir arrives, all diseases will disappear." "Hmph!" Ah Qiao pursed her lips slightly, "You know how to drink rice soup. Go to sleep!" With a slender finger, she wiped his eyelids.When she turned around, his eyes opened again, looking at the top of the tent and thinking about something, there were so many things to know, but there was only Ah Qiao to talk about in front of him. But Aqiao didn't come for a long time, he couldn't help shouting, but it was Xiao Jiaji who agreed, "Mr. Hu," he said, "You shouldn't be too busy. It's two o'clock in the middle of the night, please settle down!" "Where is Ah Qiao?" Hu Xueyan asked, "Where does she sleep?" It's no surprise that a big wholesale business has guest rooms and shops, but they never entertain guests.Customers of some merchants even taboo diners, because it is said that women during menstruation will offend the God of Wealth offered.The signboard in Yangfang is also called "Daji". Although it is a store specializing in the wholesale of seafood and groceries, although women are not restricted from entering and leaving, there are not many single rooms, so Sister Aqiao was arranged by Xiao Jiaji to live in Daji At the house of a clerk I remember, I slept with his new wife for the night. "Today is no good. It's the guy's turn to go home and sleep. There is such a day in ten days. Sister Aqiao said: "The new bride who is fragrant and fresh, how can I delay the love of their husband and wife?" The guy said She's very good at being a man, and she keeps saying it doesn't matter, it's Sister Aqiao who refuses." "So where are you going to sleep today?" "Here," Xiao Jiaji said, pointing to a door panel and two stools on the side, "I'm ready to set up an 'upside-down bunk' for her. But—" He smiled and didn't say any more, with a secretive expression on his face , which is suspicious, Hu Xueyan of course wants to ask: "But what?" "I think this bed is quite big, why don't sister Aqiao sleep on the back of Mr. Hu's feet." Xiao Jiaji said again, "She wants to build a bed here for the convenience of serving, wouldn't it be more convenient to sleep on the same bed? " I don't know if he is serious or joking?I don't know what Sister Aqiao herself means?Hu Xueyan just smiled and didn't answer. In the end, Xiao Jiaji still set up a "upside-down berth" for Sister Aqiao.The bedding and quilt pillows are naturally laid by herself.After the patient took the medicine and closed the door, Hu Xueyan spoke. "Your mattress is too thin and there is no curtain, why not sleep in my bed!" He patted his side. Sister Aqiao, who was taking off her make-up, didn't speak, and hugged each other.However, for the convenience of movement, I slept on an outer bed—Ningbo people pay attention to beds, and the boxwood carved bed is huge, and it is more than enough for two people to sleep.A foreign lamp was placed on the shelf of the inner bed, and a small spot of light shone on her tight-fitting green satin jacket.In Hu Xueyan's eyes, it felt like meeting in a dream again. "Ah Qiao! Should you tell me about yourself?" "It's a long story." Aqiao said very softly, "You're also tired in the middle of the night. You just took your medicine and got a good night's sleep. We'll talk about it tomorrow." "I'm in good spirits now." "It's natural to be in good spirits. Listen," Sister Aqiao said, "the roosters are crowing. Sleeping in the second half of the night is the most important thing. Go to sleep! Fortunately, my people are here, so why are you in a hurry?" The meaning of this sentence is very deep, enough for Hu Xueyan to think about it for a long time.In the end, when the illness first turned around, he was not energetic enough, and soon felt sleepy, and slept until dawn. He woke up and she woke up too, eager to get up and cook.Hu Xueyan wished her to sleep longer, so he held her back and said, "It's too cold, don't get up. Let's have a good talk." "What are you talking about?" Sister Aqiao said, "I hope you recover soon, and we can talk about it when we return to Shanghai." "I thought about it last night. As long as I can pass this time safely, I will never be an official again. I will be satisfied with doing business in a safe manner and being able to spend time with a few good friends." "You only know friends!" Sister Aqiao had a slightly resentful expression on her face, "I don't make any plans for myself." Thinking for himself, of course including her.The implication is quite subtle.Hu Xueyan calmly made no comment, but asked, "How did you get out of the He family? You can tell me now!" "Of course I'll tell you. But you're always a friend, so I'm afraid you'll feel sad when you hear it." What she meant was to regard He Guiqing as Hu Xueyan's friend—this friend is now miserable.Just because of a mistake in Changzhou, he was punished with "dismissal and questioning".After two years of delay, Xue Huan mostly relied on Xue Huan to falter and perfunctory for him, but the "fugitive" situation was enough. "This kind of life is not for people." Sister Aqiao sighed, "A person is a black man, and he can't go anywhere. I heard that there are guests coming to worship, so I have to find out what I am here for. I am most afraid of the county university in Shanghai County. The master came to pay homage, and he was here to catch people. 'Don't do bad things during the day, and don't be surprised when you knock on the door at midnight'. I have learned the old saying, and it's true. I'm like this. Think about what's in your heart. smell?" "Call me, just be ruthless and surrender yourself." "That's what he used to say. It's just talk, but he can't help himself. Now—" Now, even the days of such fear are numbered.Since the death of the first emperor and the succession of the young lord, the empress dowagers of the two palaces have listened to the government behind the curtain, and they have reused Prince Gong.In order to boost morale, all civil and military officials who lose their teachers and humiliate the country must be severely punished.The most unfavorable thing is that Zeng Guofan was transferred to the governor of Liangjiang, and he was ordered to govern the military affairs of the four provinces of Jiangsu, Anhui, Jiangxi, and Zhejiang.Officials from the four provinces, from Wen to governor and Wu to admiral, all belong to moderation.He Guiqing once asked someone to say that he hoped to give him a chance to serve as a redemption, but the answer he got was only four words: "There is nothing I can do to help." "Half a month ago, someone said that Mr. Zeng saved a Daotai surnamed Li and led the troops to defend Shanghai. It is said that this Li Daotai will take over from Xue Futai as soon as he arrives in Shanghai. He is Master Zeng's disciple. , naturally listen to the teacher. No matter how much Xue Futai wants to help, he can't help. For this reason—" For this reason, He Guiqing had to make a final plan: the family affairs have been punished, and Ji and concubines have also been dismissed. This is how Sister Aqiao will go down. Thinking about how well he treated her, it would be uneasy to leave at this time.But He Guiqing insisted not to return, so she had no choice but to obey. "Then, he also has to plan for the rest of your life." Hu Xueyan said, "However, he has a few money left. I'm afraid there is not much left for the past two years." "It doesn't take much to live, and they are all cheated away. One said that he could go to Beijing for him, and the other said that someone gave him a pen as a gift. I don't know how much money I spent in this kind of dog hole. Sister Aqiao said, "Before he left, he told me that he wanted to give me two thousand silver. I definitely don't want it." "You are loyal enough. However, in this troubled world, to be honest: it is better to ask yourself than to ask others." "It's not that I don't have any plans. I have a small box that Grandma Qigu will keep for me. There are a few things in it, worth 30,000 to 50,000 yuan. When I arrive in Shanghai, I will hand it over to you." "What do you want me to do?" Hu Xueyan asked, "I'm not in the mood to run it for you right now." Sister Aqiao remained silent for a while, blinking and biting her nails, as if she was thinking about something very important.From the moment Hu Xueyan bid farewell to Wang Youling on the Qiantang River, he had a feeling of despair. He was unwilling and unable to think about anything, so he became ill. Although he was out of danger and recovered quickly, he was as lazy as before. , so he didn't want to guess what was on her mind, and just turned his face sideways as if facing his favorite ancient jade, appreciating it wantonly. After all, I haven't seen her like this in six years.Six years of chaos is a long period of time, how many people have lost their lives, heard nothing, how many people have gone up and down, their prosperity and decline are different from the past, but thinking of Aqiao sister six years ago, it is like a dream after a night.At that time, the description clearly came to my mind. Comparing the two, some have changed and some have not changed. The most obvious thing is the figure, which is now plump.At that time, I was too thin, so this change has become more beautiful and more sophisticated. What remains unchanged is the affection in her eyes, which is still so deep and so pure, it seems that she doesn't even care about herself except for Hu Xueyan in her heart.Thinking about it now, his heart is like cold ashes discovering a spark, this is the beginning of the rekindling of the fire, and he himself thinks it is very precious. So he stretched out his hand to hold her hand unconsciously, and said with emotion: "I really escaped death on this trip—it's not because I'm afraid of any danger on the road, I'm timid, it's my state of mind. From Hangzhou to Ningbo, all the way my heart It's so cold, I lie in bed all day thinking, why does a person have feelings for another person? If there is no relationship, he is him, and I am me, so I don't need to worry about him. So I said to myself, in the future, I will wait I'm at peace, and I'm more indifferent to everyone." Having said this in one breath, he was a little out of breath and stopped.Sister Aqiao never heard that his tone was unfinished, but when he took advantage of the topic, her expression changed drastically. "You said these words," she asked, "didn't you say them just for me?" "Yes—" After saying these two words, Hu Xueyan noticed that there was a difference in her expression, and immediately realized that she had misunderstood, and quickly answered, "I have never said this in front of anyone, only with you. One person said, it makes sense. I don’t know if you can guess or not?” The meaning is still inexplicable, but she can see his eagerness to explain the misunderstanding, she is half relieved, and the other half wants to listen to his next sentence. "Don't let me guess! You know, bet your mind, I can still compete with others, and I'm far behind you." Hu Xueyan smiled, his smile was not pretty, his thin mouth looked big, and his two canine teeth looked like fangs.But after all, it was a happy smile, and Sister Aqiao was happy to see it. "You still can talk like that." He said with a straight face, "I specifically talked about my state of mind to tell you something. At this moment, my mind has changed." "How to change?" "People still have feelings. Just suffer for it, die for it—" Before he could finish a sentence, a soft and warm hand covered his mouth: "It's hard to say anything, these are insignificant things!" "Okay, don't say it, don't say it. You just need to understand what I mean." Hu Xueyan asked, "You seemed to be thinking about something just now? Why don't you talk to me." "There's a lot to talk about. Now you're not in the mood to listen, and I'm not in the mood to talk. There's no need to rush everything. We'll talk about it after you recover from illness." "My illness can't be cured for a while. Fortunately—" he wanted to say, "Fortunately, I can't die", but because she was taboo to say "death", he swallowed suddenly, paused, and then said, "One or two One day I want to go back to Shanghai." "Then how?" "There is nothing wrong. In Ningbo, the news is not good, and there is nothing to do. Good people will get sick from boredom. How can they get well?" "There's nothing you can do about it. You just got better just now, and you braved the sea wind for nine days to go on the road. If your illness recurs, in the vast ocean, you will be in trouble every day, and the earth will not work well, that will be two lives." "how?" "Don't think about it, if something happens to you, what else can I do besides jumping into the sea?" It was such a bond of life and death that Hu Xueyan couldn't bear to touch her anymore.But, thinking about it for himself, as long as he eats carefully and Aqiao takes good care of him, it really doesn't matter much.However, if it wasn't for the doctor's consent, not only could Sister Aqiao's mouth not be stuffed, I'm afraid Xiao Jiaji might not agree. Therefore, he decided to ask Xiao Jiaji to ask the doctor privately, but he couldn't find a chance.Because Sister Aqiao has almost never left him since she woke up.And it was snowing again, Xiao Jiaji advised her to "make market noodles" in the house, with a charcoal basin, decoction, porridge and vegetables, all in that room.Hu Xueyan found it lively and interesting, and used a Hangzhou proverb to laugh at her as "doing a dojo in a snail shell".But because of this, even though Xiao Jiaji was right in front of him, he couldn't say a few private words. However, it is not a waste of time.Xiao Jiaji helped sister Aqiao do the "hands-off" and helped her cook meals, and at the same time told Hu Xueyan everything about the past few days.It is said that the negotiations between Huang Chengzhong and Fan Ruzeng and the British Consul Xia Fuli went smoothly, and they agreed to do their best to protect foreigners.Two long-haired British priests have been arrested and "rectified".Moreover, Anmin was also informed that the common people were allowed to do business outside the four gates.The market in Ningbo has largely recovered. "The most powerful thing is our batch of rice. Food is the most important thing for the people. If food is not enough to panic, people's hearts will be more stable." Xiao Jiaji said consolingly, "Mr. Hu, you can also make up for your regrets a little bit." "It's a good thing to accumulate virtue." Aqiao sister said, "Looking at this good thing, the old lady will definitely have a Bodhisattva to bless her. Hu Xueyan remained silent.One is happy, the other is sad. There are no suitable words to express his complicated feelings. "I have an important thing to tell Mr. Hu, the price of rice, the person with a big memory asked me how to calculate it? Did I sell it to split the account, or give it to them? I said that the rice was taken first, how to calculate it, I have to ask you Only then can the rules be determined. If they refuse to agree, I can’t make the decision, and the rice has to be shipped back by the original ship. Daji promised to follow my method. Now I have to ask Mr. Hu. In my opinion, dismantling is more cost-effective!” "No!" Hu Xueyan replied decisively, "I don't want money." So what?What Hu Xueyan wanted was rice, and what he wanted was a ship to transport the grain, and he only wanted it within three days once Hangzhou was recovered.His intentions are easy to understand. When Hangzhou is taken back from Changmao, they will starve and starve. "Why do you need to do this?" Xiao Jiaji advised him, "Mr. Hu, in terms of business, everyone admires your abacus. Doing this does not mean that you will 'put your money away' there. Moreover, the recovery of Hangzhou is far away." "Not necessarily, luck is about to change." Hu Xueyan seemed a little excited, "The way Changmao did it is capricious. I don't think they will last long. In three to five years, they will be finished." "How long is it in three or five years, and the profit is on the rise, and one dan of rice becomes two or three dan of rice. You should think about it for the people of Hangzhou." "That's right!" Hu Xueyan became calmer again, "I have my own thoughts. First, I have never despaired. Maybe reinforcements will arrive, and the city of Hangzhou will not be destroyed. If the grain road can be opened, I will immediately transport rice to help. At that time, if you don’t join hands at that time, wouldn’t you miss a major event! Second, if Hangzhou really falls, keep the rice there, and you can leave at any time after the recovery—this is a kind of hope that you can comfort yourself. To put it bluntly Well, I lied to myself, and finally I have done my best for Hangzhou." "It also makes sense, I will negotiate with Da Ji." "It's not busy." Hu Xueyan asked, "When will the doctor come?" "Every day is after lunch." "Then eat early, she can clean up after eating." Hu Xueyan asked Sister Aqiao again, "When the doctor comes later, do you want to avoid it?" Although female relatives don't see male guests, they are an exception to doctors, and they don't have to avoid them.It's just that when he asked this sentence, it meant to make her avoid it.Of course Sister Aqiao understood, she followed his heart and replied, "I'll listen behind the screen." Hu Xueyan knew that she would avoid it, so he asked her this on purpose.But she hid behind the screen and listened, Tiaohu couldn't leave the mountain, so she didn't have to avoid it, she had to use her brains.It was also very simple, first he asked Xiao Jiaji to write a letter for him, took his hand, then said he wanted to eat some sweet soup, and asked Sister Aqiao to go to the kitchen to ask for foreign sugar, so he dispatched her away, Then you can talk privately with Xiao Jiaji. "Jiaji, you don't need to write the letter, I'll tell you something, you come here." Xiao Jiaji walked to the bed, he said, "I've decided to go back to Shanghai right away, you tell the doctor, I have to go no matter what. " "Why?" Xiao Jiaji was surprised, "Why are you in such a hurry?" "No reason, I just want to go. When I arrive in Shanghai, I can inquire about the news." Hu Xueyan said again, "At first, my heart was so cold. I talked with Aqiao for a long time this morning. To be honest, my mood is very different. I have two things to do now. The first is to save Hangzhou, no matter it is terminally ill, I will be a living horse doctor. The second is to do my business. Doing business can’t lag behind, the sooner the news A well-informed place is better. Do you understand?" "I understand the second point, but I don't understand the first point." Xiao Jiaji asked, "How do you save Hangzhou?" "I can't talk about it in detail now." Hu Xueyan looked out the window a little nervously. This is because a slender figure has already flashed out of the window, and Sister Aqiao is about to come in.Hu Xueyan took advantage of this short moment and warned Xiao Jiaji and the doctor about their "emotional intelligence" in private, not to let sister Aqiao know. It is not easy to understand what the intention is, but the timing is urgent and there is no way to ask, Xiao Jiaji can only act according to his words.After Hu Xueyan finished a bowl of longan foreign sugar and egg soup, Sister Aqiao packed up everything and the doctor arrived.
