It's been more than a month since the autumn festival, and Jia Zheng still doesn't dare to go out of the room. Sometimes when he walked along the path of the little garden, and heard the voice of the servants, he thought that they were talking about his own rank; When you hear their laughter, you think they're laughing at yourself.

Jia Zheng stuffed himself in the study, and from time to time there was the sound of reading in the study, as if in this way, he announced to everyone in the house: He is still the political master who loves to read! At the same time, the endless supplements were brought from Rongxi Hall into the second master's study, showing the master's preference for the youngest son.

As Jia's mother's most beloved youngest daughter, Jia Min and her second brother have the best relationship. One is that Jia Min prefers Jia Zheng, who can read, and can occasionally talk about poetry; Second, Jia Yu, who was doted on by his grandmother, was a little bully who would not let people, and Jia Min, who was provoked to cry many times, was taught a lesson by his grandmother, so he naturally alienated this brother.

Then, the second brother is very uncomfortable, and it is inevitable that the younger sister will have to be cared for.

On this day, Jia Min grinded his mother and begged for an old ginseng plant to practice his hands.

Jia Tihu faced: "Nonsense! How can there be life-saving things to train you in the hands. ”

After begging for a long time, Jia Mu still refused to let go, and only said that it was okay to use the inferior one.

Jia Min had no choice but to confess: "Mother, this is for the second brother, using inferior ginseng, how faceless." ”

Jia Mu scolded with a smile: "I'll just say that you, Nizi, are reasonable on weekdays, why don't you give up today." After making fun of it for a while, Jia Min only didn't do it, and the whole person twisted and twisted in Jia's mother's arms.

Since it was not a waste, Jia Mu opened her own private treasury. I didn't give the whole root, only let the mandarin duck cut it in half, and said: "You shouldn't eat too much ginseng at one time, these are enough." ”

So Jia Min personally cooked ginseng and old hen soup, and ordered someone to send it to Jia Daishan and Jia Zheng respectively. I took a copy and sent it to Jia's mother in person.

"My son's craftsmanship has improved again," Jia's mother rubbed Jia Min distressedly and held her in her arms, "The smell of fireworks in the kitchen is too strong, is there any smoke for you?" ”

Jia Min stayed in Jia's mother's arms obediently, and said with a light smile: "Mother, Min'er only cooks occasionally, and she is not smoked. ”

"By the way, I've already asked someone to send one to the second brother." Jia Min raised his head and said, "The second brother has been working hard in the study recently, and it is too hard. ”

"Your second brother is not admitting defeat, no matter what, there are still three years left and right, and it is not bad at this time." Jia's mother ordered someone to call Jia Zheng.

"I've seen my mother." Jia Zheng came quickly, "I don't know what is important for my mother to call her son?" ”

"What, I can't see you if it's okay?"

Although my mother was summoned, I was only worried that something would happen to my mother. By the way, thank you for Sister Min's ginseng soup. ”

Jia Min smiled and avoided Jia Zheng's tricks, "My brother tortured me, this hundred-year-old ginseng, or my mother specially opened a private treasury to give it to me." ”

"It's also me who stained my sister's light." Jia Zheng said with a smile.

"Second brother, don't say that, if I hadn't said that I would have given it to my second brother to drink, my mother would still refuse to answer me." Jia Min pretended to look at Jia Mu with resentment.

Jia Zheng was even happier when he heard this, "That is a piece of Sister Min's heart, and it is also my mother's love." ”

Mother Jia watched the two siblings get along from the sidelines, and was very happy, "Okay, don't fight, I see, one of you thinks about your brother for everything, and the other loves your sister, you are all good children." ”

Jia Min's small mouth seemed to be smeared with honey, and said sweetly: "It's not that my mother taught her well!" ”

Jia Mu laughed when she heard this.

At this time, a little maid came in and said, "Old lady, a maid from Master Zheng's side is here, and she has something urgent to find Master Zheng." ”

Jia's mother was on the rise, unwilling to let Jia Zheng leave, "Let her in." ”

A maid came in, with a curling figure and a small face, Jia Zheng saw that it was Langmei in his study. Jia Zheng subconsciously frowned, and looked at the maid suspiciously, not knowing what was going on.

I saw that Na Lang Mei knelt down and cried and said: "Master Zheng, it's not good, rouge her, she seems to have had a miscarriage!" ”

What the! Jia Mu stood up in shock.

"Mother, Rouge is the maid in my study, and Zheng'er didn't know she was pregnant." Jia Zheng first explained to Jia's mother, and then asked Langmei, "What's the matter?" Why don't you say that Rouge is pregnant? It was fine just now, why did you have a miscarriage again? ”

Lang Mei said: "Sister Rouge drank the tonic soup sent to the master's study, and somehow, she covered her stomach and screamed, and kept saying, 'My child ......'." The slave didn't hear Sister Rouge say that she was pregnant before. ”

Faintly feeling that something was wrong, Jia Mu asked, "Who sent the tonic soup?" "Oh no, she's given a lot of big things to Zheng'er recently, so she won't be turned around, right?

Lang Mei glanced at Miss Min cautiously, Jia Min's eyelids jumped, it couldn't be ......

"It's the ginseng soup sent by Miss Min."

Jia Min hurriedly said: "You are talking nonsense, the ginseng soup I stewed is to nourish the body, how can it harm people!" ”

Her daughter knows that Min'er is not that kind of person, and it is not good for her to harm the people around her brother. Jia Mu felt that there must be something strange in this. She raised her hand and asked someone to ask for a doctor first, and then asked someone to inform the Wang family, so she took Jia Zheng to the maid.

Jia Min wanted to follow, but Jia's mother said, "That's your brother's roommate, what are you going to do?" A sentence of "unruly" sent her away.

The maid was originally in Jia Zheng's study, but Mrs. Wang came and asked someone to carry her to an ear room in the west wing of the courtyard of the second room. The doctor was there to check the pulse.

Jia Mu asked with concern, "How?" Can the child be saved? ”

The doctor shook his head.

Jia's mother was disappointed, she thought that she could have another child in the second room, but it seemed that she couldn't.

Although Jia's mother only cares about the child, she will not let go of the murderer who caused the child to be lost, she asked politely: "Then why will this girl have a miscarriage?" "It's not clear if it hurt her.

The doctor stroked his beard and said, "This maid has been pregnant for more than three months. From the pulse, it looks like something has been eaten, but I'm not sure yet. ”

Trimester? This aroused Jia Mu's vigilance. But it can't really be Min'er's ginseng soup that is problematic, right?

There was still some ginseng soup left after rouge had drunk, and the big maid mandarin duck beside Jia's mother served it to the doctor. The doctor examined it carefully and came to a conclusion: "This is a mistake of eating the Five Elements Grass." ”

Five Elements Grass? Jia Mu was stunned, she had never heard of such a thing.

The doctor explained: "If I hadn't seen a case of accidentally ingesting it in the countryside, I really wouldn't know." The five-element grass, also known as purslane, is a common wild vegetable in the countryside and is often eaten by poor families. In the "Compendium of Materia Medica", it is said that it 'disperses blood and reduces swelling, relieves the intestines and slips the tire, detoxifies and clears the drench, and cures postpartum sweating'. This is a blood-invigorating thing, and pregnant women can easily slip the fetus if they eat it. ”

Madame Wang lowered her head, and a dark light flashed in her eyes. I didn't expect this doctor to be very capable.

It's just a concubine, and Jia's mother doesn't think that an unborn concubine or concubine is comparable to her concubine. The truth was revealed, and it was not Jia Min's intention, Jia's mother comforted Jia Zheng: "Zheng'er, your sister Min didn't expect this, she just kindly sent you a ginseng soup, but I didn't expect this maid not only to drink, but also to get pregnant." You can't blame her! ”

Jia Zhengnuo should be.

Speaking of this, Jia's mother was a little angry with the girl, and the ginseng soup made by the master, the maid dared to eat it indiscriminately, and it was because the maid couldn't stand it.

After sending the doctor away, Jia's mother was a little excited, "That maid, it's called ......"

"Rouge." The mandarin duck reminded in a whisper.

"Yes, Rouge." Jia Mu said, "She is also suffering, I think, it is better to open her face and put her in your room." ”

When this topic was mentioned, everyone seemed to have just discovered that Rouge was the maid in Jia Zheng's study. Thinking about it carefully, when Rouge was pregnant, I was afraid that it was when Jia Zheng had just moved to the study and was going to prepare for the autumn season.

No wonder the political master will fall first. Several maids and daughters-in-law in the room couldn't help but think of this sentence in their minds.

Mrs. Wang made a gesture and slapped herself in the mouth: "Look at me, it's my mother-in-law who is negligent, but I make my mother-in-law laugh." Rouge's real name is Zhou, and she will be Aunt Zhou in the future. After speaking, he asked, "What do you think?" ”

Jia Zheng nodded indifferently.

Jia's mother has already characterized it as "a bloody incident of an ignorant maid accidentally eating zhì", and she is worried that Jia Zheng will be estranged from Min'er because of this, although the matter is still suspicious, she also vaguely knows who did it, but she doesn't plan to investigate it anymore, so as not to embarrass Min'er.

And so it ended.

Later, Jia's mother only said that the maid didn't know that she was pregnant, and she ate things that were not good for pregnant women, and she didn't do anything about Jia Min.

Jia Min is still a little ashamed of his brother.

She hadn't slept well for several nights, and when she closed her eyes, she remembered the child that her brother might have. Jia Min comforted herself: What are you thinking nonsense, it's not your fault; You have good intentions, who knows that pregnant women can't drink that ginseng soup; Besides, it was originally for the second brother, who knew that it would enter the mouth of a maid? Thinking like this, I feel a little better.

One day, after asking for peace, out of Rongxi Hall, Jia Min looked at the back of the second brother in front of him, hesitated, and shouted: "Second brother stay!" ”

Hearing the voice, Jia Zheng turned around and found that it was Jia Min. He asked softly, "Sister Min, is there something wrong?" ”

When Jia Min heard the second brother's somewhat detached tone, his eyes turned red, "The second brother is still weird Min'er?" ”

To be honest, Jia Min was born to Jia's mother, Lao Bengshengzhu, and the age difference between her and her two elder brothers is a bit big. Now that Jia Zhengdu has married a wife and given birth to a son, Jia Min is still a teenage girl. Jia Zheng usually greets her out of love for his sister, but when Jia Min was sensible, Jia Zheng had already moved to the outer courtyard, and the two only talked occasionally, and if they wanted to talk about deep friendship, there was no.

In Jia Zheng's heart, Aunt Zhou, who has been with him in the study for several years, is probably closer than this sister.

Jia Zheng didn't say a word.

Seeing this, Jia Min didn't understand, and her tears rolled down: "Second brother, I really didn't mean to......"

Jia Zheng didn't look over, he seemed a little unbearable.

Jia Min realized his gaffe, gently wiped his tears with a handkerchief, and said, "Second brother, this time it was Min'er who was wrong, Min'er shouldn't have taken things at the entrance so lightly......"

There was a choked voice from his sister behind him, and Jia Zhengsi said that this was just a little girl, so he sighed: "Sister Min, don't cry, I don't blame you." ”

Jia Min was pleasantly surprised: "Really? ”

Jia Zheng lectured her with a straight face: "Min'er, this kind of thing can't happen next time." Have you ever thought that if I happen to be in the main courtyard, it will be your pregnant second sister-in-law who drinks it......"

It turns out that the second brother is worried about this, Jia Min really thinks that the second brother is going to turn his face against her for this aunt. She still obediently admitted her mistake, and seeing Jia Zheng smiling at her with satisfaction, Jia Min felt for the first time that her second sister-in-law had snatched her second brother.

After Jia Zheng left, Jia Min stayed where he was, thinking in his heart: The second brother has become a family member after all......
