"Miss, don't worry!" Mama Wu promised: "The matter of letting Mrs. drink medicine is wrapped up in me." ”

Gu Chongyang was overjoyed when he heard this, and an undisguised smile bloomed on his face: "I naturally trust Mama." ”

"Regarding my mother's illness, the old fairy also said a lot, I'll go back and think about it first, don't let people disturb me. Wait for the little guy who sent the lotus root to come, Mama, you take the lotus root next, and let the little guy come to me. ”

"Okay." Mama Wu nodded again and again, with a solemn face: "Miss, don't worry, think slowly, think seriously, don't think wrong, Mama promises not to disturb you." ”

Looking at Mama Wu's cautious appearance, Gu Chongyang couldn't help but smile slightly, the name of this old immortal is really useful.

I knew that they believed in ghosts and gods so much, and they should have brought the old gods out from the beginning. In the dream, I met the old fairy and lit up, and the drama was staged a lot, and I was not the first one.

Gu Chongyang was suddenly stunned!

Where is this? Have you really been born again?

Is the so-called rebirth just a dream of oneself? When she woke up from the dream, she was still in Liangxiang Grange, and her mother, Mama Wu and others were just an illusion she imagined?

Or, the present is real, and the things of the previous life are dreams.

Gu Chongyang was a little stunned.

Mama Wu didn't dare to urge her when she saw that she was stunned, but carefully helped her back to her room, and ordered Luwu and Qingzhi to guard at the door, and no one was allowed to disturb Gu Chongyang.

It didn't take long for the dates to go, and he came back soon.

"Miss, fortunately not dishonored. Thanks to you, the villain got things done. Jujube Zi's words were very reserved, but his eyebrows fluttered with a dancing expression, but he betrayed the joy in his heart.

Gu Chongyang looked at his expression, put down the book in his hand, and asked him, "How did you get the lotus root?" ”

Zaozi smiled: "Because the villain has a huge amount of money on him, he doesn't dare to run around like before, and as soon as he goes out, the villain hires a familiar carriage." I first exchanged the 20 taels of silver tickets into cash, then went to the pastry shop to buy two boxes of cloud cakes, and finally took the cloud cakes to the largest restaurant in town, which was Mingli Restaurant. ”

"Because the villain has helped Mingli Restaurant chop firewood and transport vegetables before, Chef Zhao, the leader of the restaurant's back kitchen, is very familiar with the villain."

The villain gave Chef Zhao a cloud cake, and spent fifteen taels of silver to Chef Zhao to buy a basket of fresh lotus root from him. The purchase price of this lotus root is ten taels of silver a basket, and Chef Zhao earned five taels of silver for nothing, so he was naturally very happy. ”

"The villain took two taels of silver and gave the little chefs and helpers in the back kitchen to drink, and asked them to help cover up in front of the boss, so that everyone was happy."

"It cost fifteen taels to buy lotus root, two taels for cloud cakes, two taels for the kitchen's mouth covering, ten copper plates for a carriage, and ninety copper plates left in the end."

As he spoke, Zao Zi took out a large handful of copper plates from his arms and put them on the table in front of Gu Chongyang, and the copper plates rattled.

Gu Chongyang smiled: "You worked hard, isn't it just for these ninety copper plates?" If you give it back to me, isn't it a bamboo basket for water? ”

"Miss." Jujube scratched his head and said: "The villain did want to earn you a little money, but now the villain has other plans." ”

"What are you going to do?" Gu Chongyang looked at him calmly.

Under Gu Chongyang's gaze, Jujube gritted his teeth and made a deep gesture: "The villain wants to take refuge in Miss's door as a servant, please ask Miss to eat." ”

After saying this, his heart pounded.

He has had enough of this kind of precarious day and night when he does chores and is called to drink. His dates don't grow well, his body is weak, and people who want to sell himself as a slave don't want him. Therefore, he can only go to the east house when the east family has something to do, and the west family to go to the west house when he has something to do, because he is a short-term worker, he is often bullied by the slaves of the east family.

He's had enough of these days!

The young lady in front of her, although she is a young lady, is generous and generous. Most importantly, she is short of people. If I can vote for her, I will help her run errands in the future, and I will no longer have to sleep in the open like this, and worry about my stomach every day.

I just don't know if I can get into her eyes, after all, I have been rejected many times in the past, in addition to refusal, it is ridicule.

He had no home when he was a child, and he suffered a lot as a beggar on the streets, and his biggest dream was to hope that someone would accept him. If it weren't for the sake of being able to pass on the lineage in the future, he would even go to Beijing to be a eunuch.

He must seize this opportunity in front of him.

Jujube's head kept down, as nervous as he wanted to wait for the verdict of life and death.

Gu Chongyang never spoke.

He could feel that Miss's gaze had been falling on him, and Jujube had only felt more nervous.

Suddenly, a woman's soft voice came from the door: "Miss, do you want to set the meal now?" ”

"Hmm." Gu Chongyang said: "Come in." ”

Luwu brought in the meal with two little maids, and the dates smelled the fragrance of the meal.

He swallowed hard, but a wave of regret rose in his heart, he felt that he was too reckless, and that he should wait a few days. But he was afraid that the eldest lady would leave, so he had to say it in a hurry.

Just when he was conflicted, Gu Chongyang Qingyue's voice came from above: "Zaozi, you go back first, let me think about this matter, and I will give you an answer in a few days." ”

"Yes." Jujube was shocked and walked out happily.

The delicacies on Gu Chongyang's table were deeply reflected in his mind, Miss was alone, but she ate so many things, it was really luxurious. If she follows Miss, she will eat the rest of the food, which will be enough for her to eat several meals, so why worry about not having a good life.

After dinner, Mama Wu came: "Miss, the lotus root juice has been prepared, is it going to be put together with the medicinal soup?" ”

"Yes." Gu Chongyang said: "Mix it together, and then serve it to my mother to drink." Mother, would she drink it? ”

"Yes." Xu felt that there was hope for her mother's recovery, and Mama Wu's spirit was much better than in the afternoon: "Miss, don't worry." ”

"You can serve it to your mother now." Gu Chongyang went out with Mama Wu: "I want to watch my mother drink it with my own eyes." ”

After a deception, Gu Chongyang was really not at ease.

Walking to his mother's door, Gu Chongyang pushed open the door and was about to enter.

"Hello!" Her mother stopped her with a fierce expression: "Why don't you get out soon?" What did your mother tell you in the morning, you forgot it? ”

My mother had always been very gentle, but she suddenly became very strict because she was afraid of infecting herself.

Gu Chongyang did not continue to move forward, but retreated outside the door and spoke loudly to his mother through the door: "Mother, don't worry, I won't go in, I will listen to you in the future." ”

So saying, she took a stool and sat down in the doorway.

"Ma'am, it's time to drink the medicine."

Lu Wu took the medicine bowl from Mama Wu's hand and brought it to her mother's bedside.

Even Mama Wu can't get close to her mother.

It seems that my mother really felt that she was going to die.

But if my mother drinks the medicine, she will be healthy and safe.

"Before going to bed, ask your mother to take the medicine again." Gu Chongyang advised: "Mama, call me over when the time comes, I want to watch my mother drink the medicine with my own eyes." ”

"Miss, don't worry."

Gu Chongyang left satisfied, but did not see his mother's reluctant gaze.

Before going to bed, Mama Wu came over, and she said to Gu Chongyang happily: "Miss, Madam really stopped vomiting blood, and in the past hour and a half, she has only vomited a small mouthful of phlegm." ”

"I really don't know which way it is, but it's so good!" Mama Wu wiped her tears excitedly: "Maybe the late old lady is blessed by heaven for Mrs." ”

The old lady in Mama Wu's mouth is her mother's deceased father and Gu Chongyang's maternal grandfather.

Gu Chongyang's maternal grandfather's surname is Shen, and now he is a well-known wealthy businessman in Nanjing.

The Shen family's ancestral home is Chuzhou, which was originally just a small merchant selling traditional Chinese medicine, and the real rise began from the generation of Gu Chongyang's maternal grandfather's father, Shen Xi.

He collected cotton from Songjiang Prefecture and sold it to Sichuan, from Sichuan to buy medicinal herbs to Jiangnan, from Hangzhou to sell silk cloth to the capital, and then sold the most fashionable rouge gouache and gold and silver jewelry in the capital to various places...... And so the business got bigger and bigger.

By the time Gu Chongyang's uncle was in charge of the family, he was already one of the richest people in Nanjing.

Listening to Mama Wu's words, Gu Chongyang's heart moved. Since ancient times, medicine has not been separated, since the ancestors of the Shen family were selling medicinal materials, maybe the Shen family will be able to heal.

Even if my uncle can't, my grandfather and my grandfather's father will definitely know more or less. I told my mother that I was instructed by the Shen family in my dream, so I knew how to use medical skills, so it was not necessary.

said that he was helped by the Shen family, and his mother would definitely be less suspicious.

The more Gu Chongyang thought about it, the more she felt that she was smart, she jumped down from the chair: "Mama, go, it's time for my mother to take medicine." ”

Seeing his mother take the medicine again, Gu Chongyang's heart was completely put into his stomach.

The mother can take the medicine obediently, and Mama Wu, who is also a mother and a servant, has made great contributions, and Gu Chongyang is very grateful.

"Mama, give my mother some benzoin, and when my mother wakes up, it will be fine tomorrow." Gu Chongyang said again: "Mama, I've worked hard for you today." When we return to the capital, I will treat your old and cold legs well, and ensure that you will not suffer from leg pain again. ”

The corners of Mama Wu's mouth twitched, and she was very relieved and moved: "Miss, Mama doesn't feel hard, as long as Madame can be good, she wants my life, and I don't have a word." ”

Gu Chongyang believes this!

In her previous life, her mother died, and Mama Wu hanged herself for martyrdom.

She didn't feel anything at the time, but now, she has experienced life and death, and she knows the only truth of death through the ages.
