MTL - The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister-Chapter 159 your life, can't
Chapter 159 Your life, no
Wen Lan didn't know that Wen Ning had come to Wuxi.
Before he heard that Pei You had detained a small drug dealer, he felt a little strange.
Even if the small drug dealer really planned to go deep into Wuxi to resell the medicinal materials, after all, it has not yet become a reality, and the medicinal materials that were full of a carriage at that time did temporarily solve the predicament of Wuxi.
Even if it wasn't for that load of herbs, He Luan might...
Can't save life.
Therefore, even if his "merit" is not counted, counting the crime alone will not detain the small drug dealer until he returns to Beijing for trial as the outside said.
It's just that there were many things in Wuxi before, he fell ill again, and then there were medicinal materials and food, so how could he care about this small drug dealer who was detained?
Until recently, the epidemic gradually dissipated, Wuxi, and even the thirteen cities in Lingnan basically resumed normal operation. After finishing the work in hand today, Pei You ordered someone to come to inform him and ask him to take He Luan together to take them to see a people.
The carriage stopped at the official post, and Wen Lan thought it was someone from the court who came quietly to help them improve Lingnan, but as soon as he entered the door, before the people inside could see clearly, a teacup came quickly, bang—
Before he could cry out in pain, he heard He Luan's surprised voice behind him: "Ah Ning! Why are you here?!"
Ah Ning?
She is so bold, has she come to Wuxi at this time? !
But after sitting down, he realized that his sister's boldness was far beyond his imagination.
"So you transported that carriage of medicinal materials from the capital alone?!" Wen Lan thought it was inconceivable.
He is meek and weak, a young lady who doesn't go out of the door, when will she have the courage and ability to do such a big thing? !
Wen Ning was sitting opposite him, she lowered her eyebrows and said, "I'm not alone, I hired a lot of guards."
It's just that she still knows how to hire guards, and it's strange to go to the Escort to hire guards!
Where did she learn these things? And how do you know where there is an **** agency and which **** agency is reliable?
"Can…"
Wen Lan was about to speak when Wen Ning kicked her under the table.
If she didn't have the experience of her previous life, when she was only sixteen or seventeen years old, she might not even have thought about it, let alone whether she could do it.
Maybe you can't be so surprised in front of Pei You?
"Ah Ning is used to being courageous and resourceful, and my sister-in-law really admires it." It was He Luan who spoke up and rounded up the words.
No, his family, Ah Ning, even if she has the guts, but she stays at home after she is ten years old, how does she know about these tricks in the world?
Before Wen Lan could speak, He Luan said again: "Even the 'cong trees' this time came from Ah Ning. Speaking of which, Ah Ning, when did you buy so many 'cong trees'? Before that, you and sister Rushuang It’s so mysterious, you’re just messing with this?”
Wen Ning subconsciously wanted to take a look at Pei You.
He sat on her left side, opposite He Luan. But since he entered the door, the two haven't looked at each other. He didn't speak, and she never said anything to him.
Wen Ning held back that look, and only slowly told Wen Lan and He Luan the set of rhetoric he had told him before.
It was nothing more than the intention to hoard "Stone Ying" to make a quick buck, but the money boss gave her a "bush tree" in the warehouse. She thought that she could use the same method as "Stone Ying", so she took it.
"God bless Dayin!" He Luan clasped his hands together and said gratefully.
"That is, if it weren't for someone..."
This time, Wen Lan kicked Wen Ning under the table.
She was sent to this official post as soon as she entered the city, and she had never seen the purgatory on earth in Wuxi a month ago.
All the doctors were infected, and four of them who came earlier had even passed away; seven out of ten infected people in Wuxi City, when the city was divided into districts, the number of healthy people was shockingly small.
In such a situation, the situation is not clear. To be honest, if he knew that Wen Ning had come alone, he would definitely not let her go out at risk.
There are enough lives to die in vain, why add another one to her?
With such a kick, Wen Ning fell silent, her eyebrows and eyes were lowered, and her head was also lowered.
Seeing this, He Luan also kicked Wen Lan and winked at him.
Pei Shizi didn't say a word after entering the door, Wen Ning didn't give anyone a straight look, and thinking about the teacup when he entered the door...Pei Shizi probably forcibly detained Wen Ning in this wing.
For more than a month, Wen Ning was so disliked by restraint, it was hard not to complain.
Wen Lan understood right away: "Oh, Aluan, my forehead hurts so much! Does the medical office have plaster for scratches? Let's go back and get some medicine!"
He Luan: "..."
The acting is too obvious Husband...
Wen Lan didn't care if it was obvious or not, she dragged He Luan away, and before leaving, she thoughtfully dismissed the two girls who were guarding the door.
Only Wen Ning and Pei You were left in the room, and the air instantly became quiet.
Wen Ning and Pei You were sitting next to each other on the Eight Immortals table. As soon as he left, she stood up and sat on the edge of the bed.
There was the little figure she started to embroider again in the afternoon, and she picked it up and buried her head to continue embroidering.
Pei You didn't move.
There was tea on the table of the Eight Immortals. He sat quietly by the table, drank the cup of tea slowly, and then slowly got up and walked to Wen Ning's side.
"Take you out for dinner?" He squatted down and looked up at Wen Ning, his tone as if nothing had happened, "Southwestern dishes are very different from those in Beijing and Jiangnan. You probably Haven't tried it yet."
Wen Ningyuan was very angry.
Anyone who has been locked up for more than a month, with no one to speak, nothing to do, and ignorant of outside affairs, cannot be emotional.
But Pei You knows her a lot.
He brought Wen Lan and He Luan, interrupted her anger, let her see that her brother and sister-in-law were safe and sound, and then came to talk to her as if nothing had happened.
She really couldn't get angry anymore, only a cavity of resentment remained. As soon as he opened his mouth, the resentment turned into water and swirled in his eyes.
Pei You frowned slightly, and went to shake her hand.
Wen Ning dodges.
"Wen Ning." He called her in a low voice.
Wen Ning lowered her eyes and wiped away her shallow tears.
Pei You's hand was suspended in the air.
After a while, lightly clasped five fingers together and retracted that hand.
There was another silence between the two sides.
Wen Ning no longer shed tears, just embroidered the little people under her hand randomly, without any rules or stitches, Pei Youning looked at it for a while, stood up, and walked to the window.
The windows that have not been opened for more than a month still have traces of seals remaining on them.
It was getting late, but it was midsummer, the sun had not completely set, and it was spreading obliquely on the window.
Wuxi has basically returned to normal, but the official post is facing a side road after all. At this time, it is no longer lively.
Pei You slowly looked at the last small vendor downstairs who was closing his stall and returning home, but his thoughts were obviously not on him.
Not long after, the small vendor put away his shop and disappeared on the corner of the street.
There was silence all around, only the afterglow of the setting sun shining on the dust jumping in the air.
"Wen Ning, anything is fine." After a long while, a faint voice resounded in the wing room, "Your life is not allowed."
Pei You turned around with his hands behind his back, and the window lattice that blocked the sunlight cast a shadow on his side face: "If you want me not to go to Wenfu, it's fine; if you want me to give you and Li Shu, it's fine."
His dark eyes stared at Wen Ning: "You want me to waste your life, no."
Wen Ning's eyes turned red: "But..."
"No but." Pei You interrupted her without hesitation, her complexion was as pale as usual, only the small mole on the nasal bone showed a little bit of sternness, "With me, anyone can have an emergency, but you can't." .”
"but…"
"No but." Pei You glanced sideways, looking at her almost unquestionably, "No but, no but, nothing is more important than your life."
"you…"
"I don't think I was wrong, even if I do it all over again, I will do it again, even if you don't like it, I can't change it."
"I…"
"The yamen still has something to do, let's go first."
Pei You rolled his eyes away, turned his head and left without giving Wen Ning a chance to say a word.
"Stop for me!" Wen Ning shook off the embroidered braces in her hands and shouted coldly.
Pei You barely stopped when he reached the door.
Wen Ning was so angry that her chest heaved up and down: "Didn't you say to take me out for dinner?!"
Blinking, she finally softened her tone and expressed a little grievance: "I'm hungry."
-
Wuxi was originally the most prosperous and lively city among the thirteen cities in Lingnan.
The epidemic comes and goes quickly. With a few doses of medicine, you can recover to 77.88% in three days. Unless you are infirm, even if you are seriously ill, you can rest at home for a few more days, and most of them will be fine.
Therefore, not long after "Congshu" entered the city, Wuxi gradually regained its vitality.
Wen stared at the noisy restaurant. Although she knew that the epidemic had killed many people, compared to the tragedy in her previous life, she was very relieved by this appearance.
In normal times, Wen Ning would have pulled Pei You by the sleeve, chattering and asking endlessly, but now, the two had almost had another quarrel, and each had a grudge in their hearts, so they didn't talk much.
Pei You didn't bring anyone with him, so he ordered food by himself. Wen Ning didn't seem to be listening, but added a sentence at the end: "You have a pot of special wine here."
"Okay!" The shop waiter knew Pei You very enthusiastically.
Pei You glanced at Wen Ning with dark eyes, and Wen Ning rested her chin, looking downstairs as if nothing had happened.
Not only the waiter, but almost everyone in Wuxi City didn't know Pei You, so the two sat in a box on the second floor.
Downstairs is very lively.
It is similar to most restaurants, with a special stage in the middle. Although it has just resumed business not long ago, it is still singing sonorously at the moment.
Wen Ning took a few glances and understood that the song was about the current epidemic.
Perhaps because Pei Youren was still in Wuxi, so his existence was eliminated, and it was directly choreographed into a drama of immortals descending to save all living beings.
Wen Ning didn't want to be embarrassed by staring at Pei You, so she pretended to watch a play, but didn't want to really watch it.
She suddenly thought, her rebirth, she hoarded so many "bush trees" by mistake, could it really be the guidance of the gods, allowing her to have this opportunity to solve Dayin's problem?
Amitabha, when she returns to Beijing, she must go to the Temple of Mercy to burn incense.
After watching the play for a while, the atmosphere between the two was no longer so stalemate. Wen Ning asked naturally: "How did you transport those 'bush trees' to Lingnan? Why did everyone say it was like falling from the sky?"
Pei You drank tea, his face was not as cold as when he was in the official post just now, he returned to his usual innocence, and said in a low voice: "I just used my own hidden guard."
Wen Ning looked at him slightly surprised.
He can't trust Xie Jiajun?
This time he didn't bring Gu Fei, nor did he bring Tu Bai, and he didn't have a single person on his face.
But she didn't ask too much, and asked instead: "What about the food? There was a shortage of food in the city at that time. Where did you find the food?"
Pei You picked up the teapot, poured tea with downcast eyes, and said nothing.
It's fine not to talk to her, hum.
Instead, continue watching the show.
After a while, the waiter in the shop brought Wen Ning's wine, and the dishes were also served one after another.
Compared with those in Beijing and Jiangnan, the dishes in Lingnan are slightly heavier in taste, and they like spicy food. Wen Ning's taste is actually similar to Pei You's, and she likes sweets.
But it’s okay to have a spicy meal once in a while.
Just eating, her eyes drifted to the jug of wine beside her.
Glanced a few times, as if making up his mind, he gritted his silver teeth, picked up the flagon and poured wine for himself.
Pei You looked at her hesitantly, glanced at the pot of wine anxiously, and finally turned his eyes, poured a glass of wine and was about to put it in his mouth.
"Southwest Liquor." He reached out to stop the wine glass.
Wen Ning raised her eyes, blinked, and the light in her eyes also flickered: "I want to drink!"
Brushing away Pei You's hand, he poured the wine directly into his throat.
