11. Horse's foot
Hongyun received a return gift from Yangzhou, and he liked the kite the most, so he specially took the kite and asked Ama to fly it with him.
Yinxiang looked at him silly and deliberately teased him, "Do you remember the sister of the Lin family?" ”
"Amadu has said it a hundred times, and his ears are calloused, can you remember?" Hongyun stuck out his tongue, Sister Lin was very good-looking, he really didn't know why Ama kept remembering.
"Silly boy, I'm doing this for your own good, and you'll know later." Yinxiang picked up his son, "Let's go, take the kite and go to your Fourth Emperor's uncle's house and release it, his yard is big." ”
"Amma, let me down......" Hongyun kicked his legs angrily, Ama was too bad to carry him on his shoulders at every turn, he was no longer a child.
Time is in a blink of an eye to June, the weather in Yangzhou is humid and hot, the Lin family has been here for two years, except for Lin Ruhai, others are still not suitable for the climate here, and one by one they began to have a bitter summer.
But the seventeenth was his son's birthday, and Jia Min still made mental preparations. Instructed Su Zi to bring longevity noodles up, and greeted the two children with a smile, "Come here, today is Jingyu's birthday, and the children's family doesn't need to make a big deal, eat a bowl of longevity noodles together, and add an ice bowl to each of you in the afternoon." ”
Jia Min was afraid that children would have a weak spleen and stomach, so he never gave them ice, and he didn't dare to put it in the ice basin. Only on Jingyu's birthday, they will be given some cold drinks. Daiyu and Jingyu both smiled and squinted when they heard this, arched their little meat hands, and said in a milky voice: "Thank you, mother." ”
The so-called ice bowl has three layers, and a layer of fine ice is laid underneath, and then the lotus leaf base is covered with hot water. In the middle, fresh lotus root, almonds, lotus seeds with the core removed, water chestnut and walnut kernels are used as the main ingredients, and they are mixed together in a bowl and then poured with sugar water. At the top is a spoonful of diced seasonal fruits, which are chilled and cool, and are the most refreshing to eat in summer.
Lin Ruhai has a bowl of this thing every day, and the two children can only watch it greedily, and occasionally eat the fruit grains on the top of an ice bowl, and they will be happy. I can eat a whole bowl today, not to mention Jingyu, even Daiyu feels happy.
And what makes Daiyu happiest is that as soon as today passes, Jingyu will be four years old, and she should be able to break the fate of Jingyu's early death.
It's easy to look forward to the afternoon, Jingyu's eyes have been glued to the door, staring blankly, making Jia Min amused and angry, waving his hand: "Let them bring it up, if you don't bring it up, our Jingyu's neck should be three inches long." ”
Su Zi couldn't help laughing, his body was short, and he said crisply: "The slave is going to urge." ”
After a while, I came in with a food box, and in addition to the ice bowl, there were also four-color dumplings and four plates of preserves. It's all Jingyu's favorite food on weekdays, and after putting a table full of beds, Jingyu licked her lips, couldn't wait to sit down, and took a spoon and scooped it into the ice bowl.
"Our Daiyu is also five years old, and your father is helping you find a husband, and I will ask Pomegranate to pick a set of study and four treasures to send to our Daiyu first." Jia Min looked at her daughter, the rules of the past two years have not been taught in vain, no matter how she behaves, sits and lies down. Compared with the monkey's anxious son, the daughter's food appearance is much more gentle, and I think that if my mother sees it, I don't know how much I like it.
"Sir? Is it a female gentleman? Daiyu tilted her head and asked curiously. But I thought in my heart, don't look for Jia Yucun, and climb to the position of master and apprentice with this shameless villain, if the Lin family is prosperous, I am afraid that I will not be able to get rid of this slug for the rest of my life. If the Lin family is in trouble, he is probably the first person to fall into the well.
"This ......" Jia Min was asked, the couple felt that Daiyu was young and didn't consider the big harm of men and women at all, but think about it again, now that she is young, after two years old, will she change people again. That's it, leave this question to the master, let him worry about it.
Fortunately, Daiyu doesn't like to get to the bottom of it, so after saying this, she persuaded Jingyu, "Eat slowly, you see, eat too quickly, your ears are frozen." ”
When Jing Yu heard this, she instantly opened her mouth wide and looked at her sister with a stunned expression. Seeing my sister nodding, I wanted to cry when my nose wrinkled, but I couldn't bear to touch my ears. When I touched it, I found that my ears were still there, and I immediately smiled like a flower.
"The ears are still there." Jingyu shook her little hand proudly, and buried her head in eating, not having the slightest temper after being teased.
Jia Min and Daiyu staggered and laughed, and Jia Min even pointed to Jingyu, "I don't know who he looks like, he is a fool." ”
"He's not stupid, and when he finishes eating his own, he's going to look into my bowl." Daiyu had only eaten a few bites, and Jingyu even drank the sweet water that had melted in her bowl. Sure enough, he looked into Daiyu's bowl, smashing his mouth while looking, and Daiyu took advantage of the girl's lack of attention, and took a spoon and sent a bite into his mouth from time to time.
Who doesn't know the little tricks of their sister and brother, but they just see that today is the young master's birthday, and he is happy.
Jingyu, who was greedy for cold, burned in the middle of the night, and Mama Jin didn't dare to slack off, so she immediately reported it to her wife, and invited Lang Zhong overnight. Daiyu woke up and heard that something had happened to Jingyu, and she didn't wear any shoes, so she jumped out of bed and ran out. A string of maids and women ran behind her, and Agarwood hugged her clothes and shoes, sweating anxiously.
In the upper room, Jia Min hugged Jingyu, who was burning red, and waited anxiously for Lang Zhong.
"Mother, what's wrong with my brother." Daiyu climbed onto the couch with her hands and feet, hugged Jingyu, and Mama Wang and Agarwood, who came from behind, wanted to hug her but were afraid of startling the young master, so she jumped straight to her feet.
"My brother just has a fever, just drink the medicine for a while, you hurry back to the house." Jia Min's sun jumped suddenly, prickly and painful. The old man is not at home today, looking at a room of people, I only feel dizzy.
When Mama Jin saw it, she hurriedly ordered, "Everyone go down, only Suzi is left in the house, and Agarwood will give me Miss's clothes." ”
As soon as the person left, Jia Min felt better. Seeing that his daughter was wearing a muslin blouse, he ran out and tapped her with his hand, "Where have you learned the rules that taught you, whose young lady runs out without clothes and shoes." ”
"Mother, I'm worried about my brother." Daiyu didn't tell the difference, so she just hugged Jingyu and didn't let go.
After the training, her daughter felt unbearable again, and sighed, "I won't allow it in the future." ”
Lang Zhong came quickly, Daiyu deliberately glanced at him, not the imperial doctor two years ago, just relieved and felt funny, he knew that he was mediocre, how could the Lin family still look for him.
"It's just that I used too much ice food, and my spleen and stomach couldn't stand it, so I took a patch of medicine and it diverged, and it was fine." Lang Zhong chuckled, wrote down the prescription, and brought the medicine.
"When the steward came to ask for it, he made it clear, and divided the commonly used medicine into a few packs and brought it, so that you don't have to catch it again. After a while, let the next person divide it according to the portion, fry a bowl and drink it, and if it is not good tomorrow, come to me again. ”
"Thank you for your thoughtfulness." Lang Zhong was very old, and his hair was white, so she didn't avoid it, thanked him personally, sent a red envelope, and told Mama Jin to send him out.
Daiyu has been observing, observing Lang Zhong's every move, and even remembers it clearly when her brows jumped a few times. She clearly saw that Lang Zhong didn't dare to look directly into Jing Yu's eyes, and he didn't dare to look directly into the eyes of other people in the room.
But why didn't he dare to look at Jing Yu's eyes, and under what circumstances did a doctor dare not look at the patient's eyes? Daiyu was shocked in her heart, the previous imperial doctor could be said to be a coincidence, and there was another one, just such a coincidence? The quacks in Yangzhou are all called the Lin family?
As soon as Lang Zhong left the medicine, he was fried, and Daiyu knew that this bowl of medicine could never be fed to Jingyu's mouth. stepped forward and picked it up, "I'll come, I'll feed my brother." ”
The daughter has always been well-behaved, but her idea is right, and no one can stop her from doing what she wants to do. Jia Min had no choice but to ask, "Be careful not to spill it, and feed it when it's cold." ”
Daiyu stirred the medicinal juice slowly, not knowing what to do. It's easy to splash it, but it's easier to fry another bowl, and it's hard to grab the medicine bowl again.
Everyone looked at her, the medicine was cold, and if she didn't feed it, Mama Jin's hand had already stretched out and was ready to take the medicine bowl. Daiyu put her heart sideways, fed a spoon into her mouth, and before the people in the room could exclaim, a mouthful of blood spurted out of her mouth, and the person fell softly.
The house was in chaos, and the cold steward went out in person, patted the door of the governor's house, and took the master back to preside over the overall situation.
Lin Ruhai broke out in a cold sweat when he heard the news, and then he was furious.
"Take my handwritten book, go to the yamen and ask someone to surround the medical hall of this dog thing, and no one is allowed to escape."
"Yes." Changsheng took the master's handwritten letter, rode his horse and rushed to the yamen.
Lin Ruhai rushed home after giving the order, and the host's family heard the movement and casually packed his own Langzhong and asked him to take it away.
When he rushed back, his son was still burning, and his daughter had woken up, nesting in Jia Min's arms with a weak face. No one saw that when she drank the medicine, she bit the tip of her tongue ruthlessly, spit out a mouthful of blood and fell on the spot, which frightened everyone.
Naturally, no one dared to feed this medicine to Jingyu anymore, and the mother-in-law who decocted the medicine and the girl who served the medicine also knelt in the courtyard and waited for it to fall.
"I've already induced vomiting once, and I've poured mung bean water again, I don't know, ......I don't know, I don't know" Seeing that Lin Ruhai arrived, Jia Min's tears rolled down in big pieces, and the hand holding her daughter trembled.
"Madame, don't worry, my husband is here, with me guarding, no one dares to make trouble." Lin Ruhai took over his daughter and asked Lang Zhong to diagnose and treat them one by one.
Jingyu was just a fever caused by simple greedy food, Lang Zhong looked at the situation of the Lin Mansion, and prescribed a recipe for external use very interestingly. Let people mash the medicine powder and apply it to the soles of their feet, and they don't need to take medicine at all, which makes Jia Min, who was frightened, very grateful.
As for Daiyu, since she has already induced vomiting, and her pulse is very stable, Lang Zhong said that there is no big problem.
Lin Ruhai came forward to leave Lang Zhong and let him stay at home for a few days. When Jingyu fell asleep with a fever, Daiyu fell asleep with her younger brother in her arms, and the sky was already bright.
Jia Min leaned on Lin Ruhai's shoulder, teary eyes, "Master......"
"Don't worry, the people in the hospital have been taken, and I will seek justice for the children." Lin Ruhai squeezed Jia Min's hand, changed into his official uniform and left in a hurry.
