"I won't eat." Chen Xi wore a half old clothes with embroidered orchids and leaned half against the bed, unwilling to move.

It's too hot. There are some cool places to go when you are in Xu's house. You can have a cool rest in the pavilion and waterside pavilion. In Chen's courtyard, you can only stay indoors.

Mother Bai and little lotus were afraid that the flowers and trees in the yard would dry out and watered two or three times a day. Chen Tu hid in his room and only expected to spend the long hot summer with two volumes of books in hand.

Xu really loved her and asked her mother-in-law to go to the market to find an ice merchant to buy some ice, put it in a porcelain jar and put it in Chen Xi's room. Chen Xi lay down beside the ice tank all day and didn't want to move.

"She doesn't want to eat?" Xu sat in the main hall, holding a round fan and said, "If you hurt your stomach, how can you get it?"

"Don't worry, madam. The old lady of the Lin family taught me how to cook when she heard that the young lady was in bitter summer. She said that her young lady used to like this in bitter summer." Mother Bai took Xiao He to manage the accounts of today's Chen family. Xiao He took a pen and wrote down today's accounts one by one.

Xu became interested. What's the fun?

In the evening, in addition to the daily dishes, a plate of "good things" - a plate of lotus root powder osmanthus sugar cake was brought on the eight immortals table of pear flowers and trees in the Chen family.

Chen Xi took a piece in the expectant eyes of mammy Bai and Xu. The cake was as red as jade, condensed into glue, and poured a spoonful of iced osmanthus honey on it. It tastes delicious and refreshing.

Seeing that Chen Xi rarely ate half a plate of cakes, Xu was determined and said with a smile, "It's rare that you can take a bite. Let mother Bai make it for you tomorrow."

"If you eat every day, no matter how good things are, you'll be bored. Don't bother mammy tomorrow. I'm going to the market with my friends tomorrow." Chen Xi put down her chopsticks, took the handkerchief handed by Xiao He and wiped her mouth.

Friends? Xu asked, "But sister Ying?" But she also thought that Lin Ying had just had a minor illness a few days ago and had not recovered. It should be impossible to go out with sister Xi.

"No, it's a girl I knew before. Don't worry, mother. She's a good girl in the decent people's house." Chen Xi stood up. Of course, the girl is a good girl, but her temper is too straightforward (irritable).

It is Meng Jiao under the Bodhi temple that will make an appointment with Chen Xi tomorrow. Originally, she thought it was just a one-sided relationship. As a result, the girl really wrote down her residence and asked the servant girl to bring her a letter after she went back.

The two kept communicating for half a month. Yesterday, Meng Jiao sent her a letter inviting Chen Xi to the market.

Chen Xi had never been to an episode in her previous life. Although she was worried about the clutter of people, she was also curious and excited, so she agreed.

The next day. Xu stood outside Chen's room and knocked at the door: "I thought last night. You'd better take mother Bai or Mrs. Zheng to the market. The place is outside the city. Public security is bad. Be careful of people's abductions!"

There was no response in the half ring.

Xu was suspicious and winked at mother Bai. She opened the door and there was no one inside.

This girl also took Xiao He out!

Chen Xi didn't want to take Xiao He with her, but Xiao he couldn't get rid of it all the time, but fortunately, someone in Meng Jiao can ensure their safety.
