Chapter 157
Lin Xuan, who was already helpless against Tears Jun, decided not to care, the issue of medicinal materials was more important, so he hurriedly shouted "Mother".
Jia Min was also frightened by his son, who cried as soon as he entered the door. Probably there was a "telepathy" between mother and son, and she immediately guessed that it must be the medicinal herbs on the table that caused the trouble; she was busy with the nurse holding her son to her side, but she didn't dare to hold her son, so she had to wipe her son's tears while explaining a little incoherently:
"Don't cry, baby, it's not that my mother wants to take medicine, my mother is not sick...... Good, don't cry, these medicines are for your cousin Zhu......"
Hearing his mother say this, Lin Xuan also remembered: Yesterday, those who went to the capital to report the good news to his grandfather's house came back.
In addition to a bunch of gifts, I also brought back a letter from my grandmother to my mother.
Besides, my grandmother's letter this time must have been about how to make his own mother have a good baby--these years, and to exaggerate it, my grandmother is afraid that she hasn't even received the news that Aunt Ding is pregnant!
...... But I didn't expect that something else would happen to my grandfather's family, and it was a matter that made him pack up the medicinal herbs and send them away!
Lin Xuan suddenly looked at his mother with great curiosity.
Jia Min was shocked by her baby son's moist little eyes. She guessed that her son might want to hear her talk about Zhu'er? Indeed, she was suffocated by Zhu'er's incident, and her heart was panicked...... However, I'm really embarrassed to say that.
Besides, my son is so young, can he understand?
Jia Min raised her eyes to look at the grandmother who already knew about Zhu'er. After the eyes of the master and servant exchanged in the air, Jia Min glanced around again, and looked at the curious eyes of those big and small maids one by one, and had an idea in his heart.
Zhu'er's incident is indeed not suitable to tell Brother Chen, but the child is still young and can't understand it, so it is better to tell a story, and what should really be listened to is these older maids around her, just as Mama meant, it's time to take this opportunity to beat it up, and if there is anything terrible, you can also snuff it out as soon as possible.
Thinking about it, Jia Min first coaxed Lin Xuan to drink some water, and said softly: "Baby, I'm really good, my mother will tell you about your cousin Zhu." β
After the words fell, he picked up a pair of wife's shelves again, and said to the maids in the house a little sternly: "I just mention these things to my brother - I don't want to hear half a sentence after leaving this door." β
When the maids heard this, they didn't understand what the master meant, and they obeyed one after another.
And Lin Xuan slandered: My mother, you want to gossip with others and are afraid that outsiders will know that you are very gossipy, right?
Jia Min didn't know what Lin Xuan was thinking, so he took a sip of water and slowly "opened eight". Of course, she didn't get straight to the point - although everyone is a relative, his son has never seen him, and he certainly doesn't know who the so-called "Cousin Zhu" is. Therefore, Jia Min said some "synopsis" very intimately.
So Lin Xuan knew that the central figure of this topic was his second uncle's eldest son, whose name was Jia Zhu. The other party is three years older than Cousin Lian, and now he is studying in a place called "Guozijian";
Speaking of this, Lin Xuan was a little impressed.
Calculate whether this cousin Zhu is still the brother of the male protagonist's cousin Baoyu, and he must also be a character in the Red Mansion. It's a pity that he is not familiar with the Red Mansion and does not know the "deeds" of this person in the original book.
Since this was the case, Lin Xuan didn't think much about it and continued to listen to the gossip intently.
The beauty lady Jia Min is really worthy of being a standard literary young woman in ancient times, she can not only recite poems when she speaks, but even gossip can be emotionally rich and meandering. Fortunately, this person also knows that she is a pregnant woman, so she can't cry indiscriminately, otherwise she will have to shed a few tears to "meet the situation" every time she goes to a wonderful place.
Anyway, Lin Xuan listened to it for a while, and it was summed up in three words: self-inflicted!
ββHere's the thing, Cousin Zhu originally planned to take the exam this year. Lin Xuan, who knows what to try, probably knows that it is related to the imperial examination. The time of this exam happened to be a few days before and after Lin Xuan's birthday.
It's a pity that Cousin Zhu suddenly had a serious illness at the end of January, and it is said that it is very critical.
It's nothing, who doesn't get sick with this person, and it's a pity to miss the exam, but as long as the person is still there, he can take the exam again after three years.
So what's the problem?
- This problem lies in Cousin Zhu's illness. It is said that the imperial doctor took the pulse and said that this is "virtual"! What is the specific "virtuality", the beauty Jia Min said very vaguely, and then the system Xiansen gave the translation, and Lin Xuan knew what was going on:
To put it bluntly, it is a young man, who indulges in something excessive, so he is deficient in that kidney.
Lin Xuan didn't want to complain at first, he was only a sophomore in high school at the age of seventeen, and he decided to marry his wife;
Ahem, I've played to this point, what is this cousin Zhu?
...... Oh, it seems that Cousin Zhu hasn't married a wife yet, and the child born here isn't even a concubine? Ah, it's so complicated, he didn't understand.
Back to the point. Anyway, that's what the imperial doctor said, the deficiency of the kidneys is one thing, studying too hard is the second, and the third is ...... Exams are too stressful. So the three-in-one, Cousin Zhu was sick and "colorful".
As soon as this diagnosis came out, the Jia family simply exploded!
Two or three are reasonable, the first reason is what the hell!
Of course, the Jia family didn't take action to find out the truth, because the "murderer" was immediately exposed: the cause of the first qiΔ was actually because of Cousin Zhu's mother and Lin Xuan's second aunt! This person felt that Cousin Zhu was "studying hard", so he specially selected two beautiful maids to "serve" Cousin Zhu.
Everyone knows that young people are full of heart, and if they don't "eat" what their mother-in-law sends to the door, how can they be worthy of their mother-in-law's heart of love for their son? So, hehehe. Hey, one is not fair, you have to have both, and you can't compete for a pet between the sisters......
- So after a long time, Cousin Zhu was almost pounced.
When Lin Xuan heard this, he couldn't control the cheerful alpacas in his heart: If you study hard, give it to the maid, second aunt, what kind of logic are you?
Those who don't understand this logic also have Jia Min. I saw her sigh and said very meaningfully:
"Really, what a sin!"
None of the maids in the house dared to snort. At first, when they heard this "two or three things that the young master and the maid had to say", all these unmarried little girls were too ashamed not to want to;
- Oh, of course Madame is not afraid of these maids and young masters, after all, young masters have just learned to walk. This is for fear that they will stare at the master!
Tsk, this defense of the lady is really airtight!--Of course, these maids only dare to think about it in their hearts.
The only one present who could answer was Mama Li. She said: "Isn't it? The slave and maid have no rules to say, Young Master Zhu is married--the others understand, in order to give face to the grandmother who has not passed through the door, which one should not send all the people around the young master clean up first?--The second uncle's wife is in a hurry to send the maid over...... The slave really doesn't know what the second uncle's wife thinks. β
Jia Min deeply sympathized with this, and she said: "Hey, the second sister-in-law is really true! The girl who is set by Brother Zhu is still the niece of the second sister-in-law! What good is it to the second sister-in-law to slap the face of the maiden girl like this!"
Jia Min had something to say, but she was embarrassed to say it: in fact, she felt ...... Before marriage, let a person go to the master's side, and the right to teach personnel, and then send him away, that is reasonable; this time to put two foxes, it is obvious that the grandmother will be given a name when she enters the door...... hasn't entered the door yet, the husband's family is like this, whose girl can swallow this grievance?
Not to mention, those two foxes fought like black-eyed chickens without a name or a point, and even broke their bodies for favor...... Scholars value reputation and etiquette the most, if this thing accidentally goes out, how will others think of Zhu'er!
Thinking of this, Jia Min couldn't help but scold in her heart: Second, sister-in-law is really unreasonable!
Jia Min has always been at odds with this second sister-in-law, and feels that the other party is really not on the stage anywhere compared to the eldest sister-in-law who died early.
But these are all thoughts in her heart, the other party is the wife of her second brother Ming Media, since "words are not speculative", it is better to communicate less.
In the past, Jia Min felt that this second sister-in-law was at most unliterate, and she was still dignified and demure. She really didn't think that one day the other party would make such a ...... things to come.
Maybe the starting point of the second sister-in-law is really to be good to her children, that is, she didn't find the right way, right?
-- When Jia Min said this, he couldn't even convince himself. She sighed and said to herself. That's it, but luckily Zhu'er is fine.
She felt that it would be better for her second sister-in-law to interfere less in the affairs of her second brother's children. It's just the second brother's family affairs, and she, the married woman, can't take care of it. But she didn't need to mention it, her mother must have made up her mind in her heart.
I only hope that my mother can restrain her second sister-in-law more in the future, and don't do this kind of "self-defeating" thing again.
"That's it, let's not talk about that. Jia Min muttered a few words in his heart about Jia's mother's physical condition, and then concluded to Lin Xuan, "Fortunately, your cousin Zhu is fine, but your body needs to be taken care of." So my mother had to prepare some medicinal herbs and send them later. β
