how to say
Since he woke up this morning, he felt like something was missing.
He frowned and looked at Yan Ruyu and the others with a serious face.
This made Yan Ruyu, Xun Xia and others confused. After looking at each other, they looked at Su Changan in confusion.
Even the Shang Gong Sun looked at Su Changan curiously, bowed respectfully and asked, "Miss, is there anything I can do for you?"
Su Changan shook his head, but looked at the people in the yard: "Where's the cat? Is he slacking off again?"
Everyone present knew what "moyu" meant this time, after all, Su Changan had explained it to them.
But after hearing what Su Changan said, Yan Ruyu said, "Today is Maomao's day off, and she left the palace early to look for that Raojiang girl. She told you about this a few days ago."
……
There are at least a hundred teahouses and theaters in the capital, if not hundreds.
In one of the houses, Maomao was sitting at a table carrying her small bag, listening to the storyteller talking about what happened last night.
But Maomao didn't expose it, because she knew that what was said was actually almost correct, it was just that the story was fabricated a little bit to make it more exciting, and it made the queen, whom she served, appear much better.
But the most important thing is that the people below like to listen to it.
"Good! Well said!"
The girl sitting at the same table with Maomao was none other than the girl from Raojiang who had eaten at the table next to Su Changan and his friends in the restaurant that day. Her name was Youli.
At that moment, You Li turned his head excitedly and looked at Maomao: "Mao'er, you were also in that prison last night, weren't you?"
The girl still spoke with a Raojiang accent mixed with Mandarin accent.
And it seems that it can no longer be changed.
But Maomao nodded indifferently: "Yeah, yes."
You Li's face became even more excited, "Is it really like what the storyteller said? The Queen and His Majesty are so loving and affectionate."
Maomao nodded again, recalling the sometimes sweet and sticky behavior of Su Changan and His Majesty, and rolled her eyes helplessly.
You Li looked at her with a girlish expression: "If that's the case, then I'm so envious. But... is the queen so kind? Can you tell me about it?"
Maomao looked at Youli and shook his head, "No, there's nothing to say about that person. He's lazy and gluttonous. He just sleeps and daydreams every day. He also writes ugly words and talks to us strangely. He's a very nice person though. He cares about us and the palace maids. And most importantly, he always makes me angry for no reason!"
When You Li heard these words, he said with envy: "It sounds like you have a good relationship with the Queen."
"Ah?" Maomao tilted her head, "Did you misunderstand something?"
……
PS: When Youli speaks, please substitute Sichuan dialect + Mandarin at your own convenience.

You Li looked at Maomao, smiled and said, "What are you talking about? Look at what you said. You said that the queen is not good in this way and that way, but you also said that the queen cares about the people around her. This is not a good relationship, this is a lie."
Maomao frowned, and after a moment of silence, he said seriously, "No, you still misunderstood."
You Li sighed helplessly: "You are a good girl in every way, except that you are too stubborn. But you are also good like this."
Snapped!
Just as You Li said this, the storyteller clapped the wooden stick in his hand, and then continued with an exaggerated expression: "Guess what."
The people listening to the story immediately looked at the storyteller with anticipation.
This includes Youli.
Maomao watched Youli excitedly listen to the exaggerated story again, and picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.
but
Looking at the tea leaves in the teacup, one of them is standing upright.
Maomao couldn't help but recall the time when she and Su Changan were drinking tea. Su Changan told Maomao that if some tea leaves were standing up, it meant good things were going to happen.
Although good things happened that day, for example, she was suddenly promoted to a sixth-rank medical officer, which could be said to be a sudden jump of several levels.
but.
Maomao looked at the standing tea leaves, and her mind recalled the expression on Su Changan's face when he looked at her and said "Has something good happened, right?" after he received the imperial edict.
Thinking of this, Maomao sighed.
Although he is a very good master, and I secretly treat him as a friend.
But sometimes.
Just very annoying!!
You Li glanced at the cat who seemed to be thinking about something and said, "Where are we going next?"
Maomao was stunned for a moment, then adjusted his thoughts and said, "You don't want to listen anymore?"
You Li nodded: "It's meaningless if I'm the only one listening, and the people around the queen are here, so I can just ask you directly if I have anything to say."
Maomao thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the herbal medicine shop first. I know a herbal medicine shop that has recently received a lot of good herbs. Maybe we can find some that we like."
Hearing about medicinal herbs, You Li immediately stood up: "Okay. Let's go quickly then."
After saying that, he took the cat and was about to leave.
The herbal medicine shop that Maomao mentioned is located in Libenfang. It is one of the largest herbal medicine shops in Luoan City.
She specifically scheduled her day off for today, in fact, also to take Youli there.
of course
Although she is now a female official and can freely choose from the medicine storehouse in the palace, and with Su Changan's reputation, Maomao can take as much as she wants.
but.
The restrictions are actually quite large, because some of the highly toxic medicinal materials that you want, first of all, those poisonous herbs, are not available in the inner treasury. Even if there are some, you must get permission from Sun Shanggong before you can take them away.
This makes cats quite depressed sometimes.
So I came out today, firstly to take Youli, who was about to leave the capital, to have a look there, and secondly to try my luck.
Maomao and the others are now in Wubenfang, because Youli and his group have been living in an inn in Wubenfang for some time.
Although it is related to the assassin Wu Zhaodi, it is just a relationship after all, and Wu Zhaodi has already surrendered to the empress and joined the Shen Ce Mansion, so naturally it is impossible for her to make things difficult for these people.
So they were left to wait for the miracle doctor Zhang Wenjing in the capital.
Walking down the street, Maomao and Youli formed a sharp contrast.
Even though he has been in the capital for some time, Youli is still curious about everything.
Looking around here and there.
The cat seemed much calmer, not caring about anything around it. It just watched Youli running around everywhere.
Suddenly, Maomao saw Youli laughing and joking with a shop owner selling pastries. He sighed. She was so lively. It was totally unexpected that she had been scared to tears before.
Is it good to be young?
By the way, how old is You Li? I think he is sixteen, like me. Sixteen? Really?
Thinking of this, Maomao frowned as he looked at Youli, who was very lively and made the stall owner laugh.
but suddenly
Maomao was stunned when he saw Youli seemed to be emitting the glow of youth.
Then he looked down at himself.
Then, he reached out and pinched his eyebrows.
No, someone like me is a normal sixteen-year-old girl, and that girl is just a little girl who hasn't grown up.
While thinking this, You Li had already returned to Maomao: "Here."
But seeing Maomao rubbing his brow, Youli asked curiously, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Maomao looked at the cake that Youli bought for her, took it and said, "No, it's nothing."
But after saying that, Maomao looked at Youli with a serious expression and asked, "You are sixteen years old, right?"
You Li was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yes."
As he said this, he rolled up his sleeves, revealing a very pretty red butterfly tattoo on the inside of Youli's forearm: "This is a mark that only girls in our village who are sixteen years old will have. It also means that they are already independent pharmacists. But I'm not learning Gu, which is a pity. Otherwise, I could leave my Gu worms for you, the kind that can save your life."
Maomao took a bite of the cake and felt that it was a bit too sweet, not as delicious as the one made by the Queen. Then he looked at Youli and said, "Even if there is any, don't leave it for me. I will probably kill it for poison research."
But after saying this, Maomao looked at Youli and asked, "But you can steal your senior brother's centipede and give it to me. I'm curious about how poisonous the centipede that grew up eating poisonous grass is."
You Li laughed when he heard it. "If I really let you steal it, my senior brother would go crazy. But since you like poisonous plants and insects so much, if you were in our village, you could represent the village to participate in our Raojiang competition. If you win, you can become a candidate for the Saint. If you are lucky, you can enter the Twelve Caves and learn the medical skills and witchcraft of the entire Raojiang."
When Maomao heard this, he turned to look at Youli and said seriously, "I do!"
You Li smiled and shook his head: "It's definitely not possible now."
After saying that, You Li thought for a while and then said, "But you can wait for me. When I return and pass the test in the village, I can come out on my own. Then, I can teach you the medical skills of our village. Now, I am not qualified."
Maomao looked at Youli with disappointment, because Youli didn't look like he could pass the test.
You Li didn't know what Maomao was thinking, but he said confidently, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back to the capital and teach you then. After all, Maomao, you are my savior. My father and mother taught me to repay kindness since I was a child."
Maomao looked at Youli and said, "I am not your savior. Commander Tianyan was just trying to scare you and see if you have anything else to do."
You Li shook his head, then frowned and said, "Commander Yan is so scary. When he came in that day, I was so scared that my legs went limp. My uncle and those brothers were all so scared that they knelt down. Thanks to you, Maomao, otherwise I would have been scared to death if I was taken out by Commander Yan for questioning that day."
At this point, You Li put a smile on her face again, and looked down at the cat who was a little shorter than her: "So, you are my savior."
Maomao was too lazy to explain anything more. She just thought of Yan Yunxiao, and her expression became more serious as she said, "Well, that old woman is very scary."
You Li is a pharmacist and also a martial artist, so he said, "I heard from my uncle that Commander Yan is extremely amazing. He once came to our Raojiang alone and offended people from more than 20 villages, including those from the Black Witch Village. He was chased by thousands of people, and even the people from the Twelve Caves were alarmed. However, Commander Yan was unharmed and killed all the people from the Black Witch Village. He left safely. He is really amazing."
"However, my uncle said that the reason why Commander Yan came to Raojiang was that he was looking for medicinal wine, but after searching for a long time, he offended many people, so he was hunted down."
