21. Well done, little cousin
"What did you say?" Xifeng was in place, she really didn't come early or late, but she didn't come when she was not in Jinling.
Lin's henchman Mama Liu hurriedly repeated: "A few days ago, Miss Bao committed the old disease again, and this time it was a little stricter. Coincidentally, a monk came and gave Mrs. Gu a sea fairy prescription, saying that as long as she took the medicine according to the prescription, she could get rid of the disease brought out of the mother's womb. ”
Another grandmother also answered with a smile: "That prescription also has a name, called Leng Xiang Pill......
Xifeng didn't listen to the next words, and was already in deep thought. The leper monk really came, it was a good thing for Baochai to have that prescription, and since the beginning of winter, Xifeng went to see Baochai several times. Even if I heard the second aunt say that Baochai's illness was younger than before, a three- or four-year-old milk doll was coughing and coughing there, coughing so much that Xifeng's heart was twisted. If you don't have that prescription, I'm afraid that Baochai will cough up to death in a few years.
It's just that the cold incense pill is coming, and the golden lock of "don't forget it, Xianshou Hengchang" should also arrive. Only Xifeng didn't know that this leper monk was the person sent by the police illusion, and he came here to lay the foundation for Baochai to go out and lay the foundation for the good fortune of gold and jade; The second is to be entrusted by the police illusion to see why Xifeng is unwilling to marry Jia Lian. It's just that when the leper monk came to Jinling, Xifeng was in Yangzhou, and when he ran to Yangzhou on foot, Xifeng returned to Jinling. After such a delay, the time of the nether realm came, and the monk had to go back.
I didn't mention this for the time being, but said that at this time, Xifeng asked everyone: "Did the monk give anything back to the little cousin?" ”
"If the girl doesn't say it, the slave and maid will forget it, and she also gave a picture of a golden lock, and asked Mrs. Gu to put it on Miss Bao, saying that it can bless Miss Bao with a smooth marriage." The little maid said.
Xifeng was a little depressed when he heard this, this leper monk is really annoying, he just saves his life and accumulates virtue, why do he have to meddle in other people's marriages? If that Jia Baoyu is a good match, it would be fine, but it is a fire pit!
Only then did Mama Sun's words turn Xifeng into joy: "Mrs. Gu wanted to put it on Miss Bao as she did, but as soon as Mrs. Gu reached out to pick up the Ruyi Xiangyun lock that our eldest girl gave her that she was wearing now, Miss Bao hid and held on tightly and didn't let go." Mrs. Gu had no choice but to put away the golden lock first. ”
"Is that true?" Xifeng's eyes lit up.
The grandmothers and maids beside him nodded in unison: "Seriously, the slaves and maids all know." The day before yesterday, the housekeeper of Xue Mansion said when she gave our house the vegetables on their Zhuangzi. ”
Xifeng suddenly smiled happily, the little cousin was very good and did not disappoint her.
Seeing Xifeng's smile so bright, the maid just wanted to say two good words, but she didn't want Xifeng's smile to freeze, Lin frowned: "What's wrong, so dignified?" ”
Xifeng looked at her aunt: "You said that if the monk knew that his cousin was unwilling to wear his golden lock, would he be angry and would he come back to settle accounts?" ”
Lin poked Xifeng's head funny: "Confused." If that monk really comes back to settle accounts as you say, what kind of monk is he still a monk? If so, it's not uncommon for him to have a prescription, who knows if it will work. ”
As soon as Lin's voice fell, Mama Liu comforted Xifeng again: "Don't worry, girl, the mother-in-law in Mrs. Gu's house said that the monk gave the prescription and the picture and left, and the golden lock took a few days to make it, so the monk didn't know." ”
Xifeng nodded: "That's the best," and looked at the Lin family again: "Auntie, I want to go and see my little cousin." ”
"What's the hurry, you were fine a few days ago, but today you are tired from the car, you take a rest first, and my aunt will take you with me tomorrow." The Lin family's arrangements have always been proper, Xifeng did not argue, and obediently went back to the yard to take a bath and rest for the night.
When I arrived at Xue's Mansion on the second day, Xue Pan was not there, and when I asked, I went out to find medicine for Baochai. The wife of the Xue family invited the Lin family and Xifeng inside, and said with a smile: "What kind of sea immortal prescription is it, torturing people." I'm afraid that I can't get it together in three or five years, how can there be such a coincidence? ”
Lin said with a smile: "Take it out and take a look with us, what kind of immortal prescription is it?" Lin remembered that Xifeng said that she wanted that prescription, and she was not polite to her sister-in-law when she arrived at Xue's house. Xifeng had gone directly to Baochai's house.
When I first saw the little girl with jade bones and ice muscles, her complexion was very bad at this time, and she was half-leaning on the bed coughing weakly. Xifeng was very distressed, picked her up from the bed, saw that the doors and windows in the house were closed, and the atmosphere was very depressing, and frowned: "Is it okay to take you out to breathe?" Are there flowers blooming in the garden? ”
The maid nodded and said yes, and Xifeng put a cloak around Baochai and carried her out. The mother-in-law persuaded Xifeng to say that it was windy outside, and she didn't dare to let Baochai suffer the wind. Xifeng retorted with a smile: "It's not good for patients to be bored in the house all day long." You should always take the girl out for a walk. This is what Imperial Doctor Shen said. "Even in Jinling, everyone knows the reputation of Imperial Doctor Shen, but they are not as revered as the people in the capital.
Xifeng thought that there were some stamens and dew in the cold incense pill, and after thinking about it, he felt that Baochai needed to touch more flowers and plants. Although there is no scientific truth to her idea, there are too many strange things in the world of Red Mansions that are difficult to explain. Maybe it's because Baochai is in a better mood when he enters the garden, or maybe it's because the fresh air is conducive to recovery, in short, Baochai coughs less.
Baochai finally regained a little vitality, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and smiled at Xifeng: "Sister Feng is good." ”
"Well, remember to take your medicine well," Xifeng said with a smile: "When your brother helps you find all the ingredients for the refrigeration incense pill, you won't have to suffer from this stubborn disease." ”
Baochai was reminded by Xifeng like this, smiled "um", and then pulled out the Ruyi Xiangyun golden lock from her neck to show Xifeng, seeing her expression, it seemed that she was waiting for Xifeng to praise her.
Xifeng walked into the pavilion and sat down on Yu Meiren, sat her face to face on her lap, and said with a smile: "Do you remember our agreement before?" Baochai nodded seriously, and then preciously stuffed the little gold lock into the collar.
The nurse who took care of Baochai on the side said helplessly: "Although our girl is small, she has a big idea. The lady wanted to replace her with the golden lock that the eminent monk had made, but the girl refused to do so anyway. The wife had no choice but to give up. Alas......" the nurse sighed faintly, looking at Xifeng very helplessly.
Xifeng sneered in his heart, but he didn't show anything on his face: "Isn't it just a golden lock, my sister can wear whichever she likes, and a golden lock can really affect my sister's marriage?" said so, but in his heart he was thinking about how to change Baochai's growth environment, and by the way, he sent away the nurse who didn't know much.
Anyone who has read Dream of Red Mansions knows that the girl Baochai is quite scheming, and Xifeng doesn't think it's bad to be scheming, but the key is not to mess around, and the scheming must be used on the blade. If Baochai still lives like in the original book, it must still be the original Baochai. If you want to affect her heart, you must let her growth environment change, and finally it is possible for Baochai to take the initiative to jump out of the fire pit. Sister Lin and Baochai's little cousin, Jia Baoyu don't want to get involved.
Xifeng doesn't think that she has the ability to influence or change Baochai, but with her aunt Lin's heart and talent, it shouldn't be difficult. But in what name can Baochai be brought to the palace?
I don't know if it's Xifeng's luck or Baochai's luck, ten days later, the opportunity came.
