    Chapter 57

    Shi Hua had been thinking about it all afternoon, but she still couldn't figure it out. There was a knock on the door to the front yard. She got up and was about to go there, when she heard Xie Ling's voice coming from outside, saying, "Ah Jiu, I'll open it."

    Shi Hua stood in front of the window. The sky outside was getting a little dark. The clouds were surging in the sky. It looked like a heavy rain was about to fall. The bluestone bricks in the yard were covered with green moss marks. Xie Ling walked through them slowly.  Cross the yard and open the door.

    There was a woman standing outside the door. When she saw Xie Ling, she smiled warmly: "Ah, this must be the scholar."

    Xie Ling knew this woman. Whenever there was a wedding in the streets or alleys, she would be seen. It was also this woman who arranged Lin Hanshui's marriage to the daughter of Xu Xiucai from the west of the city.

    At this time, she came to the door, and she knew what it meant without even thinking about it. Xie Ling's eyes were slightly cold, a polite smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and his tone was emotionless: "You are"

    The woman slapped her thigh and said with a smile: "Young scholar, don't you remember me? When the young master of the Lin family got married, I drank wine to thank the matchmaker in Xuanhutang, and you were there too!"

    Of course Xie Ling remembered her, but he didn't really want to remember her. The woman smiled again and said, "My husband's family name is Cui, and people call me Mrs. Cui."

    Hearing this, Xie Ling nodded and said lukewarmly: "Ms. Cui came here in the rain, but is there something wrong?"

    The woman glanced into the door, as if she wanted to see the scene in the yard through the gap, but Xie Ling was very tall and blocked the door tightly, so she couldn't see anything, so she could only give up and said with a smile.  : "It's a great thing. Let's go in and talk about it slowly?"

    When ordinary people heard this, they would naturally politely invite her to sit inside. Unexpectedly, this young scholar leaned to the side without any intention of getting out of the way, and said without any expression: "My family is here."  If something happens, I'm afraid it's inconvenient to invite Madam Cui into the house. If you need something, just say it."

    The smile on Mrs. Cui's face froze. She obviously didn't expect the other party to be so rude, but she has been a matchmaker for many years, what kind of thing has she never encountered?  Being used to being tactful, he quickly adjusted his expression and said with a smile: "In that case, I'll keep the story short. This time, I want to be a matchmaker for your sister, Miss Shi. Your sister hasn't agreed to marry her yet, right?  ? The person who asked me to be the matchmaker this time is Mr. Liu who owns a rice shop in the east of the city. The eldest son of his family is about the same age as your sister, and he is a very talented man"

    Next, Madam Cui spent a long time blowing Mr. Liu to such a high pitch that the gods descended to earth. When her mouth was dry and her mouth was dry, she saw Xie Ling's eyes were cold and she said in a deep tone: "No need, thank you Madam Cui for your kindness."  , but you¡¯d better put it in someone else¡¯s words, if there¡¯s something going on at home, Lady Cui won¡¯t be around.¡±

    As soon as she finished speaking, the door slammed shut, almost slapping Madam Cui¡¯s face on the door. Madam Cui let out an ouch and took a few steps back, unable to believe that she was actually locked out.

    She complained: "I didn't expect that this scholar is actually a evil star."

    After Xie Ling slammed the door, he walked a few steps and immediately calmed down his somewhat heated mind. He secretly regretted in his heart that he shouldn't have said that just now. He should at least warn the matchmaker and tell her not to think about Ah Jiu anymore.  It's time for marriage.

    Just as soon as Xie Ling heard that someone was going to be a matchmaker for Ah Jiu and that Ah Jiu might marry someone else, Xie Ling felt extremely uncomfortable. He didn't want to listen to the matchmaker at all. He just felt that the other party was simply disgusting.

    "Xie Ling, who is here?"

    Seeing Xie Ling stop in the courtyard, Shi Hua couldn't help asking out of curiosity. Xie Ling quickly cleared up the expression on her face, smiled as if nothing had happened, and replied, "It's Uncle Mingzhen next door, asking me something."

    "Oh, that's it." Xie Ling's expression was really normal. Besides, he was about to attend the Autumn Festival. From time to time, people came to the door to say hello. Shi Hua knew this, so he didn't ask any more questions.

    Dinner was cooked by Xie Ling. Although it was said that a gentleman is far away from the kitchen, Xie Ling never took it to heart. He grew up with Shi Hua and helped with ordinary life matters.  If Hua takes action, he will take care of things properly. Shi Hua told him several times that he was of no use, so he had no choice but to let him go.

    Shi Hua was sitting by the stove, throwing firewood into it from time to time. She saw Xie Ling rolling up his sleeves. Even when he was doing things like cutting vegetables, he seemed a bit polite but not in vain.

    Xie Ling didn't know how to cook many dishes, so she always learned from Shi Hua, a dish of hibiscus tofu, cut the fresh tender tofu into slices, soaked it in well water three times to remove the beany smell, and put in the fresh crucian carp soup.  Bring to a medium boil. When the pot is ready, add seaweed and dry river shrimp. The fragrant aroma willA little more.  "

    "As Lin Hanshui said, there have been a lot of patients these days. Fortunately, there are two doctors in Xuanhutang, so they are quite busy. But even so, in the evening, there are still people coming to ask them to treat patients.

    Shi Hua stood up and said to the child, "I'll let you go."

    "Hua'er?" Lin Hanshui looked out the window and reminded, "It's getting late. Xie Ling will be coming to pick you up later, so I'd better go."

    "No need," Shi Hua pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "If he comes, just let him go back first. I will go home directly after I have done the diagnosis."

    After hearing this, Lin Hanshui couldn't help but wonder: "Hua'er, did you have a fight?"

    Shi Hua:¡­¡­

    She barely managed to hold back her expression. She paused for a moment before pretending to be confused and said, "It's nothing, why does Brother Hanshui ask that?"

    Lin Hanshui said matter-of-factly: "You never went to the evening clinics in the past because you were worried about making Xie Ling wait too long. Why did you suddenly say you want to go today?"

    She shot herself in the foot, and Shi Hua felt really depressed, but Lin Hanshui said so, so she could only bite the bullet and said: "Where? How could there be a quarrel? Brother Hanshui is overthinking it." (Remember this.  Website address: www.hlnovel.com
