Chapter 22 Hold your head high, the more upright, the flattened

Cui Shi gasped for a moment, lowered his eyelashes slightly, then looked at Xun Jiu, and shook his head gently.

Xun Jiu caught the fleeting hesitation on her face, and immediately reacted that this was someone else's family matter, and it was naturally inconvenient for her to ask more as an outsider.

Without further words, Xun Jiu tapped his fingers on Cui's pulse, and he was weak in his movements, which should be soft and obvious.

Fortunately, it was not very strict, Xun Jiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, retracted his fingers, and quickly asked people to prepare pen and ink, and wrote on the letterhead that the leaves, ginseng, notoginseng and sandalwood were ground into powder, and served with warm water.

This is a small home remedy for the treatment of heart failure, and Cui's current situation naturally can't wait for the decoction, so she can only use the fastest and most convenient way to temporarily stop her wheezing.

The mothers-in-law moved very quickly, and after a short time, they took the medicinal powder from the pharmacy and gave it to Cui's to take.

"Cousin, how is the second aunt's condition?"

When he went out of the room, Ji Liming was still waiting outside.

"It's probably okay, I'll re-prescribe a prescription later, and then follow the prescription to grab the medicine and take it on time every day." Xun Jiu waved his hand, "It's just that Lang Zhong is right, the second lady needs to recuperate, and it is really not suitable to be stimulated, so ......"

"I know." Ji Liming took over and said, "You should be hungry, the food has been prepared on the stove, and I will take you to use it." ”

Xun Jiu didn't speak, and followed him towards the guest hall.

A petite figure suddenly burst out of the oblique stab and stopped Xun Jiu, "Stop!" ”

Xun Jiu might as well hear the voice at first glance, and his footsteps stopped in shock.

Raising her eyes, the woman in front of the meeting was only thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a purple silk and emerald patterned skirt, covered with a black gold cloud embroidered shirt, and the playful color made her whole person suddenly look watery and lovely.

The woman's eyes swept over Xun Jiu's beautiful face, jealousy flashed in her eyes, and her brows furrowed even deeper, "Who allowed you, a fox, to enter our house?" ”

Ji Liming's face immediately sank when he heard this, and he was about to open his mouth to reprimand, but was stopped by Xun Jiu raising his hand.

She looked at the woman in front of her with a smile and said softly, "This must be the fourth girl, right?" As he spoke, his body was blessed.

The big house went early, leaving only Ji Liming with a single seedling, a son Ji Liqing and a daughter Ji Zhier from the second room, and a son Ji Lichuan from the third room.

At the head of the third room, there is also a sister who once entered the palace as the concubine of the first emperor, gave birth to a son Fubin, and was named the king of Rui after the death of the first emperor, and the idle prince in Beijing with no real power.

Concubine Ji's status in the palace is not high, and the son she produces is not good at anything, and she does not pose a threat to the imperial power, which should also be the reason why the first emperor relied on the Ji family.

It can be seen that Ji Zhier is the only granddaughter of the Ji family except for Concubine Ji.

is the only one, and it must have been the pearl of the old man's palm since he was a child, baby pimple.

Now that she heard that the old man was going to accept a broken household that had just been raided as his granddaughter, and was about to take away the favor she deserved, she naturally disagreed.

Thinking of this, Xun Jiu chuckled, if it weren't for Ji Liming's sincere invitation, she would not be willing to come to this kind of big family with a glamorous appearance, but in fact a backhouse intrigues. She has a superb medical skill, and she is so comfortable to be a traveling doctor to walk around the world in a square, and she can't starve to death anyway, why bother to come to this kind of place to find it uncomfortable?

"Fox, what are you laughing at, this girl is asking you!" Ji Zhi'er heard Xun Jiu's chuckle, and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, "Who allowed you to step into our house?" ”

"Zhi'er, don't go too far, Miss Jiu is here to see the second aunt." Ji Liming heard Ji Zhi'er shouting "foxy", and couldn't help but blacken her face.

"Who wants her to see it!" When Ji Zhi'er heard that the second brother who loved her in every way on weekdays was biased towards an outsider, her eyes suddenly fluttered, "Our Ji family has money, where can't we hire a famous doctor, but we want to invite such a fox, second brother, are you also confused by this little cheap hoof?" ”

Ji Zhi'er said a lot of things, her eyes were aimed at Xun Jiu, she was waiting for her to be angry, so that she could find a reason to sue the old man, but she didn't expect to get another chuckle from the other party.

Ji Zhi'er was completely angry, gritted her teeth with hatred, and glared at Xun Jiu, "Little vixen, what are you laughing at?" ”

"The four girls misunderstood." Xun Jiu smiled, she liked to give a casual smile when others gritted their teeth, "I just want to remind you that if you don't have such a big cup, don't hold your head high when you speak, the more upright, the flatter." ”

After Xun Jiu finished speaking, she didn't stay any longer, and went directly to the guest hall with the mother-in-law who led the way in front, she was not a member of the Ji family, and she really didn't have the heart to play house fighting with these women.

Ji Zhi'er stomped her feet angrily and yelled at her back, "What do you mean?" ”

Seeing that Xun Jiu ignored her, she simply wrapped up Ji Liming, who was still standing in place, "Second brother, what did she mean by that?" ”

Ji Liming didn't know what a "cup" was, but he roughly figured out what Xun Jiu meant, he swept Ji Zhi'er's chest, secretly held back a smile, and replied: "What Miss Jiu means, you are still young, she doesn't care about you." ”

"Small?" Ji Zhi'er was even more angry when she heard this, "How much older is she than me?" It's just a little taller than me, a little older than me, and ...... breasts."

Mentioning this, she couldn't help but think of Xun Jiu's appearance in her mind, convex and backward, that figure, really graceful, very graceful, don't say men, even if she is a daughter, she can't help but be jealous when she sees it.

reacted in an instant, Xun Jiu's words just now were sarcastic about her small breasts, Ji Zhi'er almost didn't mention it in one breath, but she has always been a daughter who has practiced etiquette and honesty since she was a child, and this time it was extremely embarrassing to be humiliated by Xun Jiu in front of her second brother, she couldn't hold it on her face anymore, covered her face and left in a hurry.

Xun Jiu came to the guest hall, a sumptuous supper had already been prepared on the table, and there were a few maids standing on both sides. ”

Xun Jiu glanced around, but didn't see anyone else, so he asked more, "Isn't the old man coming to have supper together?" ”

She asked directly, originally thinking that Ji Boran was her father's New Year's friend, and she should be able to extract some news about Xunfu's house being raided from his mouth.

But the servants didn't understand it that way, long before she arrived, the news that the old man wanted to accept her as a granddaughter spread widely, and everyone in the house knew about it.

At this moment, she asked so bluntly, and the servants only thought that she wanted to climb the high branch of the Ji family with tea earlier, and they all showed disdain.

Xun Jiu took in everyone's expressions, and sneered in his heart, Old Man Ji was not praising her, but killing her.

Before she saw the master, she was about to be killed by the eyes of the drowning eyes.

Regardless of the eyes of the maids, Xun Jiu sat down and picked up the chopsticks and ate by himself.

Accustomed to the craftsmanship of Chef Jiaoyi, and suddenly eating the food of Ji Mansion, Xun Jiu felt that there was a great sense of gap, but no matter what, Qin Wangfu was the territory of the Demon King Fusheng. Jiaoyi ...... is also a demon king's person, since she has come out, it is naturally impossible for her to go back.

As for the condition that Fusheng owes her, there is a chance to come back again.
