99 Chapter 99
Just when all factions in the DPRK and China were secretly speculating whether Jiang Zhongming was really sick or fake, Jiang Zhongming finally appeared in front of people, and his move made the previous rumors self-defeating.
For a while, the direction of the imperial court changed greatly, and his appearance appeased the military spirit of the Jiang faction, and the Jiang faction took the opportunity to criticize the An party for making waves, and even An Ruhai, the leader of the An family, began to suspect that Jiang Zhongming was pretending to be sick, perhaps he was playing tricks.
And for this reason, Emperor Jingwen, who specially went out to test Jiang Zhongming, undoubtedly fell into an embarrassing situation when he saw Jiang Zhongming, at the beginning Concubine An was sure that Jiang Zhongming's life would not be long, and at this time he saw Jiang Zhongming, except for the inconvenience of his legs and feet, he did not seem to be a trace of sickness, and the Jingwen Emperor who was angry in his heart did not even go to the early dynasty, so he directly retreated back to the court and then went to retreat and practice Dan.
There are many secret battles in the court, Gu Sanniang didn't know, she and Princess Jichang and Sun and others sent Jiang Zhongming away, and then returned to the inner house, Sun's mind was simple, only when Jiang Zhongming was really fine, she stroked her palms and smiled: "When I go home next time, I will tell my mother's aunt, the master is in good health." ”
The three grandmothers of Jiang Mansion, Princess Jichang's hometown is far away in Wusun Country, since she married in the capital, she has never been back, she has a cold temperament, she doesn't like to associate with people, and she easily doesn't go out of the gate of Jiang Mansion, as for Gu Sanniang, she was born poor, and she is still a remarried girl, and those powerful people in Beijing are above the top, how can they take the initiative to make friends with her, because among the three women of them, only the Sun family occasionally goes out of the house, she either goes back to the house to visit relatives, or has a small reunion with friends in the boudoir, so there are some things she is more informed than Gu Sanniang and Princess Jichang.
Gu Sanniang pondered slightly, and she said to the Sun family: "Master's matter, you should mention it less outside, so as not to let people with intentions catch the handle." ”
Sun said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, a few days ago, many people heard that the old man was critically ill, which made me also worried, and now that he is safe, I should slap them in the face." ”
Princess Jichang next to her looked at Sun, and she said: "Just listen to your sister-in-law, our family and the An family are not in harmony, Concubine An is in power, and the deceit in the officialdom is not something that we women can handle." ”
The Sun family was not happy to be treated as a child, but Gu Sanniang and Princess Jichang were older than her, so she had to nod her head and agree, and after a while, she seemed to think of something, so she asked Gu Sanniang: "Sister-in-law, you are as shrewd and capable as the Wang family, why does the master still need you to help take care of the main courtyard?" ”
Gu Sanniang's heart 'chuckled', and she said without changing her face: "The old man has been sick for so long, there is always a place where the Wang family can't be seen, the princess is in charge of a mess of things in the house, where can you free up your hands again, you are a child's heart, count and count, you can only leave it to me." ”
"Okay, you're making me useless." Sun said angrily, she only stomped her feet, and did not hear the flaws in Gu Sanniang's words, while Princess Jichang glanced at Gu Sanniang without a trace, but did not say anything.
The three of them said a few words of gossip, Princess Jichang still needs to preside over the affairs of the house, because Jiang Zhongming told the Sun family to help Princess Jichang when he left, so the Sun family also followed her, leaving Gu Sanniang and Xiao Yezi mother and daughter.
only said that Gu Sanniang went shopping for a long time, then returned to the East Courtyard with Xiao Yezi, thinking of the affairs of Jiang's Mansion, Gu Sanniang's thoughts were confused, she found the family letters written by Shen Zhuo to her, some of these family letters were written by him when she was in Lixian, and some were newly sent back by him, Gu Sanniang didn't know much, but when the letter was sent, and what words were written in the letter, she could memorize it backwards.
Shen Zhuo has been gone for so many days, and I don't know when I will return to Beijing, Jiang Zhongming's body is getting worse, there is no man in the family, even if Gu Sanniang is a woman who has always had ideas, she always feels that she lacks confidence.
Unconsciously, it was already afternoon, Gu Sanniang put away the family letter, she found the sewing basket, and a child's belly pocket in it had just been half done, and since she was pregnant, she had done less of these tasks.
"Mother, if you let Liu Wupo see it, she should talk to you again." Xiao Yezi said to Gu Sanniang.
Gu Sanniang replied: "What if I don't do it, there is nothing in this yard that I can interfere in, except for eating and sleeping every day, which makes me panic." ”
Xiao Yezi smiled, she remembered that she used to be in Lixian, when her mother was an embroiderer, she went out early and returned late, sometimes in order to catch up with work, she had to pick up the lamp to do work, and later opened a shop at home, and her mother was not idle for a day, and now she is the master grandmother, but it is not used.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Yezi said: "Although the house is very good, I really miss Grandma Qin, last summer, she also took me and Brother Yu to pick lotus flowers." ”
Listening to Xiao Yezi's words, Gu Sanniang's movements in her hands stopped, she had been in Beijing for half a year, and when she first came, she passed two letters with Aunt Qin's family, and later entered the Jiang Mansion, the rules in the house are big, and the dispute between the two factions of Jiang An is intensifying, Gu Sanniang is afraid of implicating the Qin family, so she does not dare to contact Aunt Qin and them.
"When your father is free, we will take you and Brother Yu back to Lixian to visit Grandma Qin." Gu Sanniang said.
Xiao Yezi glanced at her mother and said, "Mother, don't coax me, my father is an official, and he can't leave when he is idle." ”
Gu Sanniang laughed and said, "If your father is not free, then my mother will take you home." ”
Xiao Yezi shook her head, don't look at her age, she knows a lot of things, she said: "In a few months, you will give birth to a little brother, don't you want someone to take care of your brother when he is born?" I'm afraid you'll be busier than your dad by then. ”
Gu Sanniang touched Xiao Yezi's hair, and she said, "Don't worry, you will go back one day." ”
The mother and daughter talked for a long time, Gu Sanniang sewed the child's belly pocket, and embroidered a purse for Xiao Yezi by the way, and when it was done, she put down the needle and thread in her hand and looked out the window. ”
Liu Wupo replied: "I haven't heard anyone say it, why don't you send someone to ask?" ”
Gu Sanniang said, "No need, let's go to the main courtyard." ”
Liu Wupo sighed, she said to Gu Sanniang: "Grandma, you are pregnant, you should take more maintenance, I see that you have hardly slept a whole night these days, if you continue like this, how can your body stand it?" ”
Gu Sanniang lowered her head and touched her lower abdomen, she didn't say a word, and after a while, she said to Liu Wupo: "Go." ”
Xiao Yezi next to him said, "Why don't I go with my mother." ”
Gu Sanniang didn't know what the situation was in the main courtyard, she looked at Xiao Yezi and said, "No need, you stay in the house well, and my mother will come back in a while." ”
Xiao Yezi nodded obediently, and Gu Sanniang took Liu Wupo out of the east courtyard.
When the two of them came to the main courtyard, there was only the Wang family guarding the house, and the Wang family welcomed her into the house, and said: "There has been a word outside, saying that the master's sedan chair has left the palace, and it will probably return to the house soon." ”
Gu Sanniang didn't ask much, she waited silently in the house, there was a Wang family's hanging hands standing in front of her, neither of them spoke, seeing that the sun was gradually turning west, at this time, Jiang Zhongming's long entourage entered the house, and he said: "The master's sedan chair has entered the house." ”
Gu Sanniang was startled, she quickly stood up, the Wang family still remembered that she was pregnant, she helped Gu Sanniang, and whispered: "Grandma, don't panic." ”
Gu Sanniang settled down, she exhaled deeply, held Youwang's hand, and waited at the door.
It didn't take long to see Youwang and others carrying Jiang Zhongming's wheelchair into the courtyard gate, Gu Sanniang glanced at Jiang Zhongming in a wheelchair, and couldn't help but be surprised, even if she had heard about the benefits and disadvantages of the decoction before, she didn't expect it to be so domineering, and the person who went out in the morning was still radiant, at this time, his face was pale, and the whole person was paralyzed in the wheelchair, as if he had lost his life.
Gu Sanniang pretended to be calm, she asked Youwang to carry Jiang Zhongming into the house, and while asking Li Langzhong to check his pulse, she sent someone to prepare the ginseng soup.
It was only said that Youwang and others placed Jiang Zhongming on the couch, then Li Langzhong stepped forward to check it carefully, and shook his head vigorously, Gu Sanniang did not give up, she asked: "Li Langzhong, do you have any other way?" ”
Li Langzhong's face was full of shame, and he said: "Grandma, I am really helpless in the future. ”
Gu Sanniang's heart was cold, she looked at Jiang Zhongming, who was dying, and also became six gods and no master, if he couldn't stand it, what would the Jiang family do?
The room was as silent as stagnant water, until Jiang Zhongming's body moved, Gu Sanniang walked quickly to his bedside, and she asked in a deep voice, "Master, are you better?" ”
There is a Wang family brought ginseng soup, Gu Sanniang carefully helped Jiang Zhongming up, she carefully fed him two mouthfuls of ginseng soup, after a while, Jiang Zhongming's throat rolled twice, Gu Sanniang saw that he swallowed, and fed a few spoonfuls, after a long time, Jiang Zhongming broke open his cloudy eyes and looked at Gu Sanniang, he panted heavily, and asked, "Is Humble Er back?" ”
Gu Sanniang's nose was sour, he thought that he was sick and confused, and he forgot that Shen Zhuo was not in Beijing, this father and son had a deep prejudice against each other, and it was the first time that Gu Sanniang heard him call Shen Zhuo's name.
Youwang and his wife have served Jiang Zhongming all their lives, and they can't bear to see the master's oil run out of lamps, so they each turned their backs to wipe their tears.
Jiang Zhongming also seemed to remember that Shen Zhuo was not at home, he closed his eyes and rested, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes regained a little clarity, and he said, "Help me up." ”
Gu Sanniang gave him a pillow, and helped him up with the joint efforts of the Youwang family, Jiang Zhongming breathed a sigh of relief, he looked at Gu Sanniang, and said, "You sit down, I have something to explain to you." 166 Reading Network
