At this time, Aunt Qian came forward with a mother-in-law, the mother-in-law looked anxious, stretched out her hand and wanted to pull Mama Qian away from Luo Zhen's hand, but Mama Qian desperately refused, and grabbed Luo Zhen's sleeve tightly with one hand. ｗ?ｗ?ｗ?．??

Jinxiu hurriedly walked over, hugged Mama Qian with Luo Zhen, and gently patted Mama Qian's hand soothingly, so that she could calm down.

Seeing this, Aunt Qian stopped the mother-in-law, sighed and said to Luo Zhen and Jinxiu: "This Aunt Qian was an old servant of our family, some years old, she followed the aunt to the Luo family, and then lived outside for many years, and when she found it, she couldn't bear to work hard, and placed her in the backyard to live and raise herself, but this person was idle, and she always had to find work every day, so she had to occupy a corner of the courtyard, raise some chickens and ducks, grow vegetables and flowers, and never step out of the fence courtyard on weekdays...... Even in the past few days, the house has been lively, and she hasn't come to the front, and we all don't care about her everything, and we haven't said anything to her. But just now, Mother Niu went to the backyard and told her a few words, saying that the son of the cousin and aunt of the Luo family in the capital is here, and now she is going back to Beijing! This Qian Mama was stunned for a while, and then rushed out like crazy, and no one could stop her! ”

The mother-in-law who followed Aunt Qian was Mother Niu, and said in confusion: "Mama Qian, don't look at her mouth and can't speak, but her eyes are still fine, her hands are skillful, she does needlework delicately and meticulously, and she will teach the little girls to make clothes and weave knots, there are always people in her house who go to sit on weekdays, and the old slaves often come and go, and the young master and the young grandmother have just heard about it that day, and the food and drink in the house in the past two days are like the New Year, and the people under us are the same, Mama Qian naturally knows that the guests are still living in the house. But her expression was no different...... The old slave just said a few more words, and she became like this! ”

"What did Mom say to Mama Qian? Can you say that again and let us hear about it too? Jinxiu asked.

Mrs. Niu glanced at Aunt Qian weakly, lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Luo Zhen and Jinxiu, and said: "The old slave and the old slave are also following along, listening and hearing - our young master, although he came from the third room of the Luo family, he was not born to the current Mrs. Sanfang, but the previous Mrs. Jia......"

Uncle Qian and Second Uncle Qian blackened their faces at the same time, Uncle Qian glared angrily at Aunt Qian, and Second Uncle Qian turned back to find Second Uncle Qian, and the two aunts were red and ashamed.

There are not many servants in the Qian Mansion, and the Niu Pozi listens to the call in front of the master's mother, and those who dare to discuss such a topic in the mansion are naturally the master's mothers.

Luo is really adoptive, this is a fact, and there is no need to be too taboo, but when talking about such topics, you should still avoid them, irrelevant slaves, usually not let them hear.

The two wives should understand this truth, the cow woman overheard the conversation and ran to learn to talk to a dumb man, it is not a big sin, in the end, the two wives are not strict.

But this is obviously not the time to pursue it, the two uncles temporarily endured the trouble of not looking for the wives, but just asked them to think of getting Mama Qian away, so as not to delay the nephew's trip.

Mama Qian clung to Luo Zhen's sleeves, her eyes full of tears were full of hope and pleading!

Luo Zhen looked at Jinxiu and asked Mama Qian: "Mama wants to go with us?" ”

Mama Qian's eyes widened and she nodded vigorously again and again.

Uncle Qian and Second Uncle Qian couldn't help but be moved, it is said that Luo Zhen is now the son of the Qian family, and Mama Qian is the Qian family's companion and has served the Qian family, Luo Zhen supports Mama Qian for the elderly, that is how it should be!

But Luo Zhen is not the Qian family's biological son after all, there are some things, he can ignore them!

Luo Zhen pointed to Jinxiu and said to Mama Qian: "This is my wife, the young grandmother in the second room of the Luo family, the mother of the Hou Mansion in Baoding, Mama recognizes it, and you will follow the young grandmother in the future, and she will make arrangements for you!" ”

Mama Qian immediately let go of Luo Zhen, and was about to fall down and kneel down to give Jinxiu a big salute, Jinxiu hugged her and smiled: "Mama doesn't have to be like this, you are both a mother-in-law and a predecessor, you are an elder, and my husband and I should be respected." In the future, we will Baoding Houfu, you will be the oldest qualified old man! ”

Luo Zhen also said to the uncle of the Qian family: "I can't fully understand what happened to the Chengguo Mansion back then...... Thank you uncle for redeeming Mama Qian, Mama Qian is a person by my mother's side, and I should support her, so I will bring her back to the capital! ”

The two uncles nodded again and again, and Uncle Qian sighed with emotion: "Even we don't know about the old things, let alone you?" The past is gone, don't take it to heart! You are now an important minister of the imperial court, and there are many places where you need to spend energy, so you must pay attention to take care of your body! If Mama Qian wants to go with you, let her go, after all, her family should have been separated when they were sold in the capital......"

Luo Zhen heard the last sentence and thought for a moment.

Seeing that the hour was not early, the guards and stewards of the Hou Mansion had already taken care of the carriage and horse queue, Luo Zhen and Jinxiu said goodbye to their uncle and aunt again, waved goodbye to their cousins and sisters, and then boarded the carriage and horses, and the group set off for Beijing.

As soon as Luo Zhen returned to the capital, he began to get busy, after all, he had been away for six days, and the affairs that should be taken care of in the yamen still had to pass through his hands and eyes, so he accumulated there and waited.

And Jinxiu is not idle, not at home in a few days to receive several letters of worship and invitations, now it is February, spring ploughing is imminent, the suburbs of the capital and even the Chizhou side of the farms have to plan, although there are village managers, but according to Luo Zhen's ideas, there must be a general deployment plan.

There are also various businesses and workshops, as well as household affairs and social exchanges...... There are only a lot of things, and every day is enough for her to be busy.

As soon as Mama Qian arrived in the capital, she fell ill.

Luo Zhen discussed with Jinxiu, and decided to conceal Mama Qian's identity, treat her as a distant relative from the Qian family, and settle her in a courtyard in the south of the Hou Mansion to live, and give her two girls and a servant woman in her forties who does rough work.

Mama Qian fell ill, Luo Zhen invited the imperial doctor to see her, and by the way, she did a full body examination, and then Jinxiu used the medicinal materials of the gourd cave to dispense medicine for Mama Qian to take according to the imperial doctor's pulse case and prescription.

Why did Mama Qian become mute, this doesn't need to be said by others, Luo Zhen, who was born in the Guogong Mansion, can probably know the reason: Usually this is what the wealthy family often does, it is nothing more than that the people below have made a big mistake or know some great secret of the master's family, and they are poured dumb medicine by the master, and then sold far away!

The pulse case given by the doctor after the diagnosis shows that Mama Qian is the dumb medicine that has been poured into it!

Therefore, dumb medicine is also a poison, and poison can be controlled, Jinxiu looked through the medical books and classics, and those antidote pills that came out of the recipe can basically be solved!

It's just that Mama Qian has been dumb for too long, and her physical condition is not good, so it takes some time to slowly recuperate, and it takes a month or two to see the effect while using the medicine.

The situation of the Qian family back then was like a mystery to Luo Zhen and Jinxiu, but if you are a little curious, who doesn't want to solve that mystery?

Although Qian is not her biological mother, she is also an heir mother, and when Qian died, Jia was still alive, Qian Mama must have memories of Jia, if she can speak, she will always say something about Jia!

And of course, Kim's!

Jinxiu was absent from the capital for a few days, and among the five or six famous posts and invitations received by the Hou Mansion, one of them came from the Nan'an County Palace, which was sent by the princess of Nan'an County.

Now that she has returned, Jinxiu has to reply to a post, saying that she will visit the princess of the county in the near future.

The princess of Nan'an County got a reply, but she came to the Baoding Marquis Mansion at the end of the day.

is so anxious, it must be because the lion's mane mushrooms that were given before were not useful, and they failed to control the illness of the two young ladies in the palace of Nan'an County.

Jinxiu knew it, her face was not revealed, and she personally went to the second gate to greet the princess of the county, and sat down to offer tea and gossip in the second hall, and sure enough, without saying a few words, the princess of the county mentioned the illness of her two daughters.

The dried lion's mane mushrooms given by Jinxiu are actually ordinary goods picked in the mountains, and they also come from the east mountain of Dongshan Village, but without being watered by the Dongtian spring, the princess of Nan'an County did not suspect it at all, and made soup for her two daughters, and returned to the capital after eating the two catties of dried lion's mane mushrooms.

"Xiu'er, I know it's a little difficult for you, but I can't help it! This lion's mane mushroom may just have a special effect on the detoxification of a certain poison, such as the arrow poison of your uncle of the Jia family and the son of the Luo family, but the two in my family are the fetal poison brought out of the mother's womb, which is different! However, when they ate these lion's mane mushroom soups, they also had a different feeling - they were comfortable, they slept well, and their hearts were not so irritable and panicked. It's just that when it's time to get sick, it's still just as dangerous, and you can't control it! ”

The princess of Nan'an County wiped her tears and looked a little desperate: "I still have to use the secret recipe given by the famous doctor before to make that life-saving pill." It is really difficult to find suitable medicinal materials, and you can't buy Ganoderma lucidum for ten or twenty years, let alone a hundred years of Ganoderma lucidum! I'm afraid I won't be able to keep them...... What can be done now is to find some more such lion's mane mushrooms for them to eat, so that they can feel a little better when they are not seriously ill, and that's it! Therefore, I came to ask Xiu'er, can I write to your relatives over there in Chizhou to help collect it, as long as the mountain in your village grows, I will send someone to pick it up and bring it back! ”

Jinxiu got up and took the pot, refilled some hot tea into the teacup of the princess of Nan'an County, and said: "Don't be sad princess, don't be too anxious, the two young ladies have been tortured by fetal poison, and they can persist until now, which shows that they are blessed and will be fine." You told me before that the pills prepared by the famous doctor must have the Ganoderma lucidum of the previous year to be effective, I mentioned it by the way when I was writing a letter to my family, and asked my relatives and friends to help me ask about the various pharmacies, and I received a reply a few days ago, saying that there seemed to be decades of Ganoderma lucidum in the pharmacy in Chizhou City, as well as the snow cordyceps, and the hundred-year-old Dendrobium found in the cracks in the deep mountains and stones...... It's just frighteningly expensive! My husband and I came back from Shuo County to see the letter, and I was supposed to come to the house to talk to you in the next two days......"

The princess of Nan'an County was so excited that she stood up suddenly, grabbed Jinxiu's hand tightly and said, "I can't wait!" Luckily, I came first! Good boy, tell me which pharmacy am I? Ah! It doesn't matter which one it is, as long as it's in Chizhou City, it can't run! What about Luo Zhen? I want to meet Luo Zhen...... Forget it! He didn't even go down at this time, so I'll go back to the house and let them think about it! Xiu'er, I'll go first, and when this thing is done, I'll thank you again! ”

The princess of Nan'an County said, people have rushed to the door of the hall, and after a closer look, she is actually running fast with her skirt in both hands, where is there still a little bit of the grace of the princess of the county.

Jinxiu couldn't help sighing, poor parents, for the sake of her two daughters, the princess of Nan'an County has done all her hard work.

Luo Zhen sent people to put several precious medicines in the pharmacy in Chizhou City, all of them were picked in the gourd cave medicine garden, regardless of the quality and year, each of them was more than a hundred years old, and the palace of Nan'an County may cost a lot of silver, but the two little girls have been insulated from the disease since then, and they will soon recover their health.

After returning to the Hou Mansion for two days, Jinxiu had time to ask about Hong Caiyi's injury, Jiang Yan said that Hou Ye had always been willing to give his subordinates good medicine, and Hong Caiyi's injury was almost better.

And that Hong Qingfeng, as Luo Zhenru said, when they returned to the capital from Shuo County, the people of the Hou Mansion had already negotiated with the people on the prince's side to deal with the matter clearly, Hong Qingfeng lost the opportunity to stay in Beijing and be appointed, but he was not sent back to the northwest border pass, but the whole family was thrown to the uncivilized wilderness of Nanling!

In mid-February, the Spring Festival was held as scheduled.

Before the exam, Luo Zhen specially invited the cousin of the Qian family to a banquet, and at the same time, there were more than a dozen people from Chizhou, including several from Fuxing County, who had been classmates with Feng Jin at the same time.

Zhang Juren was not among them, Feng Jin was unlucky to fail to pass the examination in the autumn of last year, Zhang Lizhou was admitted, and this time he entered the Beijing examination, Feng Jin's bad luck passed on to him - he got seriously ill halfway, and had to give up the examination and stay in place for medical treatment.

Jinxiu only returned to the capital in the month of La, and had to stay in the Guogong Mansion during the New Year, and had no time to think of those few people from their hometowns, and without Zhang Juzi, who was the closest to Feng Jin, they were not very good at visiting for a while, until Luo Zhen sent his Qian cousin back to the Academy Street Inn where the children gathered, and it happened that the villagers of Jinxiu also lived there, and when they heard the name of Baoding Hou, they hurriedly mustered up the courage to meet and talk, Luo Zhen politely invited them to have a meal outside, And said that it may be a little busy in the near future, and the lifters happen to be nervous about preparing for the exam, and when they are busy for a few days, they will definitely set up a banquet for them before the exam, and wish the high school apricot list.

Therefore, there was this banquet, and many civil officials and scholars were invited to accompany them, and all they said was some auspicious and obedient words that encouraged and inspired, and the children were in a good mood, and they were almost drunk when they were too happy.

Jinxiu is very speechless, and she has to make "decanting soup with ingredients" for them with her heart, otherwise if you can't wake up the wine the day, you have to complain if you can't pass the test! (To be continued.) )
