Chapter 74: Ginseng
Mother Ann walked quickly through the garden, but she thought in her heart, Miss takes medicine all year round, and there may be 50 years of ginseng in the Residual Lotus Pavilion, why not call Xun Fang to ask? However, Madame is now angry with the people who serve around the young lady, so it is better not to say this......
"Mom!" A girl came up to her, it was Dongling, a second-class maid in the main courtyard. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Mother Ann was thinking about something and nodded slightly.
Dong Ling stopped her: "Mom, wait a minute! ”
Mother Ann paused: "What's the matter?" ”
Dong Ling raised the box in his hand: "Gu Gongzi sent it, I don't know if I should accept it or not, you can help me get an idea, I really don't dare to disturb Madame!" ”
What don't you dare to take?
Mother Ann opened the box suspiciously, and then involuntarily opened her eyes: "This, this is ......"
"It's two fifty-year-old ginseng, and Gu Gongzi heard that Miss was seriously ill, so he specially sent it to supplement Miss's body."
Ginseng with a year is precious, let alone a 50-year-old ginseng, or two!
Gu Gongzi is also too generous!
An's mother understood why Dongling didn't dare to accept it.
The preciousness of things is secondary, the key is that the Li family and the Gu family are not close in-laws after all, and the young lady is a girl who has not left the cabinet, so how can she accept Gu Gongzi's things in an unknown way. And Gu Gongzi is not at home, where did such precious ginseng come from? Do the elders of the Gu family know?
However, these two are also coincidental......
Mother An thought of Mrs. Li's liking and kindness to Gu Chengyu, and her heart moved.
"Bring your things and let's go see Madame!"
The two went to the Remnant Lotus Pavilion together.
Mrs. Li was having breakfast in the hall, and Mother Ann concisely explained what happened.
She looked at the person in the box and pondered for a long time, and asked, "Is Gu Gongzi gone?" ”
"Not yet." Dong Ling said, "Gu Gongzi is here from Chenzheng, and now he is teaching the third young master to blow Xun in Songbai Zhai." ”
Chenzheng is coming?
Mrs. Li looked at the floor clock in the corner, and it was two quarters.
After Li Guan fell ill, Mrs. Li didn't let Li Zhizhi come to the Remnant Lotus Pavilion, for fear that he would not know the severity of his young age and make a noise to Li Guan to recuperate, and second, she was ******** pounced on Li Guan now, and she had no extra energy to take care of her youngest son.
So during this time, Li Zhizhu's life was still the same as usual.
"Let's go to Songbai Zhai to have a look!" Mrs. Li said, instructed Mianyue and Yaoyue to take care of Li Guan, and took An's mother and Dongling to Songbai Zhai.
Songbai Zhai is in the backyard of the main courtyard, planted with pines and cypresses in front of the house, and the window lattices are obliquely facing the verandah.
Mrs. Li stood behind the pillar at the corner of the verandah, and quietly looked at the scene in Songbai Zhai.
Li Zhi stood in front of the window and practiced blowing the horn seriously, and Gu Chengyu sat on the Taishi chair beside him, looking out the window.
Li Zhizhi said something to him with Xun, and he was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
Mrs. Li thought for a while and said to Dong Ling: "You go and tell Gu Gongzi that I accepted the ginseng, thank him for his kindness." If he asks about Miss's illness, tell the truth. ”
Dong Ling entered Songbai Zhai along the verandah.
Mrs. Li and Mother An were still standing in place, and when they saw Dongling saluting Gu Chengyu, the two of them talked back and forth for a while.
After Dongling left, Gu Chengyu stood in front of the window for a long time, with a sad face.
Mrs. Li looked at him for a while before taking An's mother back to the Remnant Lotus Pavilion.
On the way, she said to An's mother: "Send someone to Bofu to say that Imperial Doctor Zhang has already come to see Guan'er, and as for ginseng, there is no need to mention it." ”
Early the next morning, Imperial Doctor Zhang really came again.
Li Guan drank the medicine yesterday, and the heat on his body subsided a little, but he still didn't wake up.
Imperial Doctor Zhang checked the pulse again, carefully inquired about her situation last night, and then re-prescribed the prescription.
Seeing that Li Guan's illness had improved, Mrs. Li trusted Imperial Doctor Zhang even more and sent him out in person.
"Madame don't need to worry too much, although Miss hasn't woken up, it's good for her illness."
Mrs. Li couldn't help but be surprised: "How can you say this?" ”
"Judging from the pulse, Miss's illness is fundamentally caused by long-term excessive worry and depression in the heart, and the cold is only the trigger. If she is awake, it is inevitable that she will have Yousi, which is not conducive to recuperation. ”
When Mrs. Li heard Imperial Doctor Zhang say that "long-term melancholy and depression are in her heart", the distress on her face was even worse.
Imperial Doctor Zhang saw it in his eyes, thought for a while, and said: "I heard that last night, the prince of Changshan entered the palace to greet the queen mother, and instructed the people in the queen mother's palace to take good care of the queen mother's body...... Not long after the prince of Changshan left, the Queen Mother ordered me to come to see the young lady of your house, and after I returned to the palace yesterday, the Queen Mother also specially summoned me to ask about the young lady's condition......"
Why did you get involved with King Changshan again?
Mrs. Li couldn't hide her stunned surprise and didn't speak for a long time.
Imperial Physician Zhang pointed out: "Speaking of which, King Changshan is not young now, but he has not married for a long time, and the Queen Mother is so worried that her hair is gray......"
One sentence is like a slap in the face, and Mrs. Li is in place.
Imperial Physician Zhang arched his hand at her and walked away quickly.
After getting into the carriage, his personal boy was puzzled: "Master, why did you tell Mrs. Li about the affairs of the Queen Mother's palace?" ”
Imperial Physician Zhang sighed and said, "Master Li is humble and low-key, and Mrs. Li also seems to be a kind person, although she is only an adopted daughter, she tries her best to seek medical treatment for her, and it can be regarded as a treasure...... The Queen Mother was heartbroken for the marriage of the prince, although Miss Li had a low status and could not be a concubine, but she was not allowed to go to the hospital when the Queen Mother was sick and rushed to the hospital, and pointed her to the prince as a concubine or side concubine...... "His eyes were meaningful, "Although the prince has a noble status, for Miss Li, he is not a good match......"
The boy suddenly realized.
Early in the morning, Mrs. Li was feeding Li Guan medicine, and Mother An came in and said, "Madam, Gu Gongzi is here." ”
In the past, Gu Chengyu only came once every three days or so, but recently he came every day, and he came early in the morning, rain or shine.
"What time is it?"
"It's three quarters in the morning."
Mrs. Li nodded, carefully fed Li Guan the medicine, and then went to Songbai Zhai.
Gu Chengyu was teaching Li Zhizhu to play a new song, and Li Zhizhu grabbed his arm and laughed with him.
Seeing that Mrs. Li was coming, Gu Chengyu hurriedly got up and saluted.
"No need to be polite!" Mrs. Li said cordially, and sat with Gu Chengyu on the Taishi chair by the window.
"Son, you go and write the big characters assigned by Mr. today, and then let Brother Yu teach you how to play the horn later."
Li Zhizhu's personal maid took him to the cubicle to write.
