In the morning, it was time to learn words, three small emerald green figures gathered around the table, and the orchid wrote a word, and they followed to learn to write one.

Lan Cao secretly looked at the little grandmother, and found that she had been staring at a page in the book over and over again today, and when she looked at it, her eyes were empty, as if her mind had left the room and drifted far away.

Lancao himself also wandered from time to time, Cousin Bai left, went back to Qingzhou Mansion, this time is the longest time he was a guest in Liufu Pangeng, he came in the past, he went, and Lancao has nothing to do with such an obscure little girl, Lancao has never paid attention to that person in his heart; This melancholy is like the lightest snow petal in the cold winter, flying quietly alone in the cold air, no one perceives it, no one sees it.

Orchid taught four words today, black and white, red and green, which is related to color, she said that girls embroider at home, or first master the words that are most closely related to life.

White, white, Bai Ziqi's white, orchid to explain the meaning of the word to them.

Lancao looked at the white word, and suddenly felt a sense of amazement in his heart, a burst of joy, and wrote this word repeatedly, while writing, he quietly sighed in his heart, he just left quietly, and he didn't come to tell ...... In fact, she understands how stupid and ridiculous she is, she is the nephew of the eldest lady, the son of a dignified family, he came to the corner courtyard for the sake of the eldest lady to sit here and sit with the little grandmother, now it's okay, people should naturally go home, is it necessary to come here to say goodbye to these little women before leaving? Maybe, in his eyes, they are nothing, even the little grandmother.

White, white white, white cousin's white ...... Fortunately, this trace of love has just germinated and breeded, and the time is not long, and she can still restrain herself rationally, she gritted her teeth fiercely, and told herself in her heart that she was all her own wishful thinking, it was a daydream, and she didn't know how thick the sky was.

Qian'er loves to make trouble, smiled and looked at the big "white" word on the full piece of paper, and grinned, "Sister Lancao, why do you only write this one word? What's so good about this word?"

Lan Cao's face suddenly became hot, and he hurriedly inserted a crooked "black" character into the middle of the white character, and his voice was deliberately indifferent, "Isn't it the easiest, first easy and then difficult, isn't that right?"

The dumb aunt put aside a piece of rice paper that had just been written, raised her head slightly, looked at Lancao's face, and was suddenly hit by this clear gaze, Lancao's heart suddenly felt empty, and her heart beat hard in an instant.

The cold wind beat the curtain of the door, and then a man's voice came: "Excuse me, Liu Wangongzi's young lady lives inside?"

The curtain was raised, and Xie Yulin stood at the door with a straight face.

Several maidservants were deeply surprised, Lan Cao hurriedly set up a curtain to make a gesture of invitation, and Lan Hua carried a piece of rice paper, "Mr. Xie, please stop, my little grandmother is not happy, and it is not suitable to see outsiders." ”

Xie Yulin was stunned for a moment, took a step back, looked through the door curtain, and saw several women crowded with flowers in the room, and on the innermost embroidered stool, a girl in a light green robe, with a light face, stood up and looked at herself lightly.

Is this the little mute?

When she passed out, she had given her a pulse, and at that time I remembered that she seemed to be wearing a new daughter-in-law's big red, even if she was unconscious, it gave people a silly feeling, but the woman in front of her seemed to have grown up several years old, especially the expression, that charm, where is a little girl about ten years old, more like a girl who has grown up, steady, calm.

Xie Yulin originally rushed over in one go, but he couldn't think of eating a closed door, so how could he be willing, so he could only clench his fists lightly, and just about to explain the reason for coming, Orchid raised the rice paper in his hand, his face was smiling, and his voice was crisp, "What Mr. wants to know, our little grandmother has written it on paper, please take it back and read it slowly." ”

Xie Yulin has been sitting in the hall and going to the clinic all his life, and he has been in and out of the back hall, bedroom and boudoir of a large family, but he has never eaten a closed door soup of a dumb teenager, he is really a little annoyed, so he can only take the piece of paper, and he doesn't wait to go back to look at it, so he stands under the eaves and reads it.

The thin fly-headed small letters, the writing is not very good, but it is not bad, it seems that it is very careful when writing.

Xie Yulin read it in one breath, as if he couldn't believe his eyes, he was busy looking at it from the beginning, this time he looked very carefully, as if every word needed to be studied and groped carefully, the cold wind blew the fingers of the plum tree trembling, the dead branches of the pear tree also swayed, and the hem of his cyan robe fluttered vigorously.

He finally finished reading, looked up at the door, the curtain had fallen, only the cold wind gently swayed on the curtain, and he silently made a gesture of sending off guests, Xie Yulin smiled slightly, did not linger, turned around and left, his thin body seemed to be thinner, like a dry leaf blown away by a gust of cold wind.

The dumb aunt in the curtain of the door in the room suddenly looked at the distant figure and lowered her body slightly, making a respectful gesture.

The four girls looked at each other, and no one understood what was going on.

Why is the little grandmother, who is indifferent to everyone, suddenly so respectful to this person.

But after the little grandmother finished this action, she had already gotten up and sat back at the table, picked up the book and read it again, and she still looked like that, indifferent, indifferent, as if what had just happened had never happened at all.

The four girls can only put doubts into their stomachs.

Looking forward to closing the door at night, Lan Cao brought a cup of tea to the hand of the figure at the table, lowered his voice, and called softly: "Little grandma-" but stopped talking.

The dumb aunt raised her head, "If you have something to say, just say it." ”

These words have been in the stomach of the orchid grass for a day, and if you don't ask her, you will definitely not sleep well tonight: "Little grandma, today, how do you know that Mr. Xie will come, so I wrote the answer in advance and waited for him on the paper, and, what did you write, I heard someone outside talk that Mr. Xie went out of our corner courtyard all the way and smiled, the more he walked, the happier he became, as if he had picked up a big ingot, and when he saw the eldest lady, the eldest lady was also happy, so he ordered tonight's meal to add a meat, a vegetable and a soup to each courtyard." So the people below are whispering that everyone is stained with your light. Little grandma, you ...... I...... I'm thinking...... That ......"

Orchid grass suddenly stammered.

The mute girl looked at her silently.

This little girl, compared with when she first woke up and saw it for the first time, in just a few dozen days, she is obviously mature, steady, and no longer reckless with enthusiasm in her belly, her little face has a contemplative look from time to time, and she will not be so frizzy when she speaks and does things, look at her, she is obviously depressed and entangled for a day, and now she finally comes to ask herself, if she had changed before, she must have been impatient to chase herself and ask a list of whys.

The dumb aunt got up, poured half a basin of water, pulled the pair of little hands of the orchid grass and soaked them in hot water, dripped a few drops of plum petal ointment, and gently scrubbed the little hands in a fragrant lubrication, soaked them, took them out, wiped them clean, and then carefully smeared the powder.

Lan Cao quietly let her deal with it, this medicine powder has a wonderful effect, it has already worked, and those chilblains are obviously getting better.

"That Mr. Xie, he's a doctor. He is also a studious doctor. That's why I respect him. Of course, there is another reason for this respect, but I can't be sure right now, so I can't say it. Do you understand? ”

At the end, he was obviously asking, but he didn't seem to wait for Lancao's answer, Lancao was confused, and could only nod his head in a daze, he was a good doctor, so he respected him, so he respectfully said goodbye, since he was respectful, why didn't he let him see this kind of respect himself, but he only expressed his respect far away when he had already left.

There are too many questions, Lancao doesn't dare to ask, what the little grandmother is willing to say, she will say it herself. I didn't want to say it, and I asked in vain, just like the doubts I asked at the beginning just now, the little grandmother gently bypassed it and didn't give her an answer.

"Lancao, from Ming'er, you follow me to learn medical skills, specializing in women's treatment, difficult to get pregnant, irregular menstruation, habitual miscarriage, improper fetal position and difficult birth, I will teach you the same. One day, if I am gone, you can earn your own money to eat with this craft, and you will no longer have to send people to look at people. ”

These words shocked Lan Cao's small body trembling, and tears rolled down one by one under her fluffy eyelashes, "Little, little grandma, how can this be......? The slave is so stupid, and it's still a girl's family, how can she treat a woman, I heard that a woman's family has a child, and she wants to take off her pants to expose that place, then, the slave and the maid don't dare to look at their bodies......"

Nervous and sweaty.

It seems that someone is forcing her to have a child now.

Flutter, the dumb aunt smiled.

The smile startled both of them.

Lancao looked at her in surprise, "Little, little grandma, are you smiling? You don't smile all the time, it turns out that you look good when you smile." ”

The dumb aunt slapped her on the head affectionately, "Silly Nizi, it's really a child's talk, how can a person not laugh, it just depends on whether there is something in her heart that makes her laugh - it's decided, you start studying medicine with me tomorrow, starting with herbal medicine." Anyway, you don't have Western medicine or medical equipment to learn here, and those scalpels, midwifery forceps, shelf beds, shadowless lamps, and nothing are there. ”

Lancao stammered: "Little grandma, what is Western medicine and Western medicine? What are medical devices? Why don't we have them here? What kind of knives, pliers, and beds...... Oh, isn't it one of those high wooden beds? Actually, we have them here, but it's cold in the northwest, and it's not suitable for beds, so we put it on high and put it on hold......"

The dumb girl listened in a daze, as if she was confused, and suddenly slapped her head, "Oh, I suddenly remembered something--hey, what did you just say? Say it again! The last sentence is the most talking!"

grabbed the collar of the blue grass, looking urgent, and couldn't wait to take that sentence out of the blue grass's mouth.

Lancao was frightened enough by this drastically fluctuating love, but she was still clever, "The slave didn't say anything, that is, I said that there is a bed in our house, a carved wooden bed, it is said that the old lady brought it when she married from the south, and it was not suitable when she came, so she put it on hold, and now it is stored zài......"

"Hey, that's right!" the dumb girl shouted, and slapped the blue grass on the brain.

"Remember, that's it! high, high, high, high......"

She suddenly stopped again, her ecstatic look changed color in an instant, and she muttered the word "high" in her mouth, and she suddenly ran to the table, grabbed her pen and wrote quickly on the paper, "high", "high", "high...... Wrote over and over again...... His hands were shaking, shaking so hard that he could barely grasp the pen.

Lan Cao looked at this situation and suddenly remembered the precursor of Brother Wan'er's illness, and was afraid in her heart, could it be that Brother Wan gave her illness to the little grandmother? Oh, that's bad, the hard-working little grandmother......

The little grandmother was slapping her head, slapping and slapping, all the same, with an extremely painful look in her eyes, and muttered: "Lancao, Lancao, do you know, I remember one thing, one very important thing...... One dark night, I drank, drunk like mud, in fact, I didn't drink that much, I usually don't drink at all, someone drugged, in beer, only two glasses, I was drunk, in the dark room, then a bump, climbing, then a dizziness, throwing objects in the air, heavy objects falling, the wind howling in my ears...... Out-of-body ...... Falling into a coma...... I remember, it was on the roof of the obstetrics and gynecology department of our hospital...... Lancao, I finally know, I know how I got here, so how can I go back, but it's a building that is several stories high, where do I find such a high place now? This is ancient, the ancient ...... of underdeveloped architecture."

Lan Cao jumped up and hugged her arm, tears in her eyes, and said in her heart that everyone outside secretly talked about Wan Ge'er's stupid illness that could be passed on to others, especially between husband and wife, so he couldn't marry at all, now it's good, poor little grandma, no wonder she has always been very weird and weird recently, it turns out that Wan Ge'er's stupid illness has been contaminated, how can this be good?

Lan Cao's mind was chaotic, and her mouth couldn't help but rush out, "Little grandma, don't panic, do you want to find a very high place?" The slave knows where there is, we have it in Lingzhou Mansion, it is a tower, called the Mother Tower, it is very high, higher than the flagpole in front of the yamen of the mansion, I don't know if the tower is good for suppressing the condition of the little grandmother?"

A pair of hands turned over and grabbed Lancao's arm tightly, grasping it so tightly that it was so tight that it hurt so much that Lancao inhaled cold air.
