Everyone was seated in the main hall, the atmosphere was a bit cold and a little embarrassing.
Tao Dong has been looking at Ye Zhizhou with sadness, a look that he didn't dare to care about.
Shen Tingwei roughly figured out the matter of marriage on the way over, and also saw Ye Zhizhou's dislike of the biological mother Aunt Tao, and said with a cold face again, "The father-in-law let the aunt welcome the guest, even if the aunt is welcome. ?"
Zou Qing heard her face black and stared at Tao Dong, "Why are you still here! Go down and let the next man bring tea!"
Taodong pulled the handkerchief hard and strongly suppressed his emotions. He lowered his eyebrows and got up, and left.As she walked, she deliberately walked around Ye Zhizhou and gently patted his shoulder, passing a meaningful look.
Ye Zhizhou only sat down next to Shen Tingwei to pretend to be quiet when he didn't see it.
After the others left, Zou Qing sorted out his emotions and said, "General Shen Xiao..."
"Father-in-law doesn't need to be so polite, you can call me court prestige." Shen Tingwei interrupted him and said after saluting again, "I have been recuperating before, and I can't bring Xiao Qing back to look at it, and hope my father-in-law will not be surprised."
Zou Qing was shouted uncomfortably by his father-in-law, and moved his eyes to Ye Zhizhou sideways, habitually frowning and raising Yan Yan’s face, "Qing'er, you want to be with Shen... You won't be sent with Tingwei People said it in advance, and my father was well prepared early so as not to neglect the guests."
"It was I who wanted to surprise Xiao Qing, so I didn't tell him in advance." Shen Tingwei grabbed the pot and bluntly brought the topic to government affairs. "The emperor seems to be investigating the Huai'nan Salt Gang these days. I don't know my father-in-law. Have you heard?"
Zou Qing's face changed a bit. Huainan Salt Gang had a lot of household tumors. Some of them were promoted by him. If the emperor really planned to remedy it... he looked at Shen Tingwei inquiringly, but he saw that the other party was still there. Zhang Bulu's cold face, his thoughts turned, and he calmed down and said to Ye Zhizhou, "Qing'er, why don't you come back, don't delay your father, go and see your mother."
This is to get rid of the serious business.Ye Zhizhou grabbed Shen Tingwei, who wanted to stop her conversation, and got up to say goodbye, "Then Qinger lost his company first, father, husband, you chat slowly." After talking about it, the thief hand that Shen Tingwei held was hurried to perform a gesture, turned and looked like Calmness is anxious to walk towards Yuan Hui's courtyard.He came to Zou House, but was about to make a big noise. How could he continue to spend time with Zou Qing.
When he walked to the entrance of the garden, he felt Taodong's breath in the spiritual net and frowned. He called for a servant of the Zou family to explain a few words, and then changed his way to Yuan Hui's courtyard.
The gate of Yuan Hui’s courtyard was closed tightly, not at all as lively as the memory of the original owner.
After he knocked on the door, he waited for a while before opening the door, and the person who opened the door was sullen, who was you with a bad attitude.Too lazy to entangle with these difficult servants, he directly opened the way with mental energy, and walked all the way to Yuan Hui's imprisoned little Buddha hall.Yuan Hui's close-fitting grandma wanted to stop him, and he was knocked down by his simple and crude medicine.Hearing the movement, Yuan Hui in the Buddhist hall happened to see the scene where her mother fell to the ground. She was so scared that she would scream when she opened her mouth and was quickly covered by Ye Zhizhou.
"Mother, do you remember when I was a kid and I hid in your sedan chair and followed you to the incense of Baiyun Temple?"
Yuan Hui froze, staring at him with wide eyes, then struggling violently after seeing his appearance, and vaguely calling him "Zou Qing".
Ye Zhizhou frowned and searched the memory of the original owner. He continued, "I tore my father's painting when I was three years old. My mother helped me cover up the past, and tricked my father into saying that the wild cat came in and broke it."
Yuan Hui's struggle stopped and looked at him in shock.This matter should only be known to her and Qingqing, how could Zou Qing...
Seeing her thoughts at a glance, he continued, "At the age of three and a half, I went to bed in the morning of my brother's bed and made his bed wet. I was afraid that you would be a joke, so I falsely blamed it on my brother and caused my brother to be scolded by my father. A meal."
"I also smashed your vanity box during the Chinese New Year..."
...
One by one, one by one, Yuan Hui calmed down completely, staring at him stunnedly, with doubt and daze in his eyes.
"Mother, whether you believe it or not, I am Zou Qing, and the one you sent to the country is Zou Qing." He slowly released his hand covering her mouth and looked at her eyes seriously, " At the age of four, Tao Dong deliberately took me to contact a patient with smallpox, and then disguised Zou Qing as if he had been infected with smallpox, and encouraged her grandma to send me and Zou Qing to the countryside. Half a month later, Tao Dong also came to the country. She asked me to wear Zou Qing's clothes, and applied my face to change the appearance of the potion repeatedly, brainwashed me, and made me think that I was Zou Qing."
Yuan Hui opened her mouth, and the blankness in her eyes turned into shock.
He took out Meiyan Dan to show her, and then pointed to his face, "This face is fake, it was made by Taodong with a potion. A while ago I remembered my childhood memories and realized Taodong's conspiracy. , I found a way to get the antidote to restore my face, mother, I am really Zou Qing."
"Are you... Qingqing?" Yuan Hui hesitated to reach out and touch his face. He reached halfway and stopped, shaking his head. "No, it's impossible, how could you be Qingqing, Qingqing is in the country, you are here Fool me, you must be lying to me."
"Mother!" Ye Zhizhou was helpless, and turned over the memory of the original owner again, and said with shame, "Mother, there is a mole on your waist, once you and your father... I accidentally saw it, you and my father thought I fell asleep, just... your clothes were pink and embroidered with butterflies."
Yuan Hui froze, and then thumped excitedly, "How could you know this! How could you know this! Only Qingqing was sleeping with me when she was a child, how could you know this! It was Qingqing who told you, right? Zou Qing, you can't lie to me!"
"Mother, I didn't lie to you, I am really Zou Qing." Ye Zhizhou looked at her eyes and said affirmatively, "Zou Qing in your mouth has no such memory at all. If you don't believe it, you can write and ask him! , The grandma and mammoth around you have been bought by Tao Dong, they have been brainwashing you, you wake up!"
"No, how can I admit that my child is wrong..." Yuan Hui covered her face, shook her head hard, and her voice gradually choked. "I don't believe, how can you be Qing Qing... If you are Qing Qing, then I have done something over the years What... how can you..."
Ye Zhizhou sighed in his heart, stepped forward to hug her, patted her spine comfortably, and calmed her with mental energy, said, "If you don’t believe me, I can take the antidote to restore my appearance now, waiting for you Seeing what I really look like, I understand everything."
Yuan Hui's crying weakened, she wiped her tears with her head down, dropped her arms, looked at him for a while, and suddenly firmed her eyes, "You said that your face was fake, and Tao Dong applied you a medicine to change your appearance. ?."
Ye Zhizhou nodded.
"Do you have an antidote?"
Continue to nod.
A trace of cruelty flashed in Yuan Hui's eyes, pulling him out, "Well, let's go find your father, and then shout Tao Dong to confront! You take the antidote on the spot and show me! If you dare to lie to me , I am going to drive you and Tao Dong out of the Zou family!"
This request is in line with Ye Zhizhou's intention. While continuing his spiritual output, he cooperated with Yuan Hui toward the main hall.
Zou Qing is carefully asking about Shen Tingwei's Huai'nan salt gang, and sees Yuan Hui pulling Ye Zhizhou in, and can't help but sigh with cold faces, "How did you come here? Well, I don't need you here, go to the backyard."
Yuan Hui ignored him, let go of Ye Zhizhou's hand, walked to the door and found a servant to let them call Tao Dong, and then sat aside with a sullen face.
"You!" Zou Qing wanted to scold at the table. Seeing that Shen Tingwei got up and greeted Ye Zhizhou, he swallowed the scolding back and pressed his temper. "Ma'am, what are you doing? There are guests."
"You will soon know what I'm going to do." Yuan Hui adjusted his collar to look at him, his eyes cold and faint, as if he had quenched the ice and hid the needle, "Fujun, your mother gave you The room is so concubine."
Zou Qing's eyebrows throbbed, and he took a deep breath several times before the anger that almost broke through the sky.
Shen Tingwei listened to the conversation between the two, and looked at Ye Zhizhou sideways.
"It's okay." Ye Zhizhou pressed him into a chair and sat down, said close, "Don't be surprised no matter what you see."
Tao Dong came to the main hall in doubt, and was a little nervous in the face of Yuan Hui and everyone sitting on the side, "Master, ma'am, you are..."
"Stand aside." Yuan Hui waved her hand to interrupt her and looked at Ye Zhizhou, with hope and madness in her eyes, "Take the antidote, eat here."
Ye Zhizhou broke free from Shen Tingwei's hand, got up in the sight of everyone or doubts or dissatisfaction, went to the table to eat the Elixir, then poured out a cup of warm tea and wet the handkerchief, and began to wipe his face hard.
When Tao Dong saw him doing this, his complexion changed, and he couldn't help raising it.
Shen Tingwei glanced at his palm and straightened up, walked to his side and sat down, looking at him seriously.
As he wiped, the handkerchief was gradually stained with a yellow mark, and the smooth facial skin actually became wrinkled.Yuan Hui couldn't help leaning over to look at it, and Zou Qing was shocked in her eyes.
"Qing'er, you..."
"Father is restless, just some old toxins, just discharge it." He raised his head to appease, then glared at Shen Tingwei who wanted to get started, lowered his head and continued to wipe it.
Tao Dong finally no longer calmed down, stepped forward and said anxiously, "What are you doing, Qing'er, and there are guests here? It's too rude to stop."
"Shut up for me!" Yuan Hui glared at her, then shouted out loud, "Come here, tie Aunt Tao to me, and block your mouth!"
Zou Qing intuitively wanted to stop it, but after he saw Yuan Hui's sharp eyes and Ye Zhizhou's face, he hesitated to stop.
The servant came quickly, Tao Dong was struggling to scream, he was tied up and closed his mouth, his eyes gradually became panic
A quarter of an hour later, a yellowish layer of skin on Ye Zhizhou's face was finally wiped off, exposing the white and tender but red and swollen skin inside.The warm tea has been replaced with a pot of warm water, and several handkerchiefs are dirty.He rubbed his hands sour that his heart became more sympathetic.The potion had penetrated into the skin and flesh for more than ten years. If it wasn't for the panacea given by the system, the original owner's face would probably not come back in this life.
Layer by layer, his face was slightly smaller than the naked eye, and the delicate and straight nose bridge came out. The upper eyelid was thick and drooping. The eyes gradually showed the original flexible contour, and finally the lips , Torn open the last layer of dead skin, dull purple lips became rosy and full.
Yuan Hui looked at him and his breathing became more and more rapid. When his whole face finally showed up, he finally couldn't help covering his mouth and made a tone of crying.
The water in the basin was already dim, and the handkerchief that had been put on for a long time was dark. Ye Zhizhou took the new handkerchief from Shen Tingwei, wiped his face, and smiled at Yuan Hui. "Mother, you have remembered it for more than ten years. What did I look like when I was a kid? Does it look like what I was when I was a kid?"
"Like, it's too much... Qingqing..." Yuan Huipu stepped forward trembling and touched his face, tears finally fell, "You are Qingqing? Well, then I have been raising for so many years...you , How do you... I... Qingqing, you really are..."
Zou Qing also looked shocked and couldn’t help asking loudly, “What’s going on? How could your face be like this? Madam, why do you say he’s Qingqing? What’s going on here? !"
Despair flashed in the bound Tao Dong's eyes, and his head turned pale.
