Chapter 49: To go or not to go
Mama Han looked at Xie Jiang and said, "The lady should have a big brother first, and when he was drugged and aborted by the Zhao family, he was seven or eight months ······old."
In the eyes of the people of the time, heirs are far more important than wives and concubines. Xie Huaijin didn't like Ji Ren Zhen, but because Zhen gave birth to Xie Lu, he went to live in her house for a few days a month, and Zhen was promoted from Ji to concubine. When she remembered the separation, the second lady mentioned the patriarch's wife, as if she was very familiar, Xie Jiang interjected: "Father doesn't care, Father can't take care of it, isn't there still a patriarch?" ”
Mama Han sighed and said in a low voice: "At that time, the second lady first married into the Xie Mansion, and her heels were unstable, and the Zhao family was quite powerful, how could the patriarch support your aunt." The second lady had no choice but to endure it...... Fortunately, the head of the family still has some affection for her, so that the lady can be safe······"
Halfway through the sentence, Mama Han suddenly stopped talking.
There is no need to guess that Xie Jiang also knows that she remembered that the Zhao family forced the original owner to be a concubine, and the original owner hit the pillar. Maybe even what I said that night can be remembered now. Xie Jiang took a sip of tea and asked softly: "The past things, if you mention it again, it will only increase the sadness, and Mama will say, what did A-Niang tell you?" ”
"Before leaving the house, the second lady instructed the old slave to ······" Mama Han lowered her face and said in a low voice, "Wuyang is close to the capital, there are many extravagant sons, I am afraid that the lady will see more extravagant and flashy scenes, and she yearns for it." She said... Even if she chooses a tent family to marry in the future, she will never allow the lady to follow her old path again."
There was a moment of silence in the room. Xie Jiang put his cheeks on his hands, stared at the carbon basin for a long time, and said lazily: "Mama thinks too much." How old am I, Fairview Boy does this, it's like being idle, teasing kittens and puppies, you know? ”
Mama Han laughed out loud, and said helplessly: "How can the lady compare herself to a cat and a dog, saying such a thing... Ay! I remember that there was a comment from the ninth prince in the booklet, saying that his temperament was uncertain and his mind was deep and unpredictable. He is the most cunning figure among the powerful sons in the world, how did we provoke him? ”
Speaking of this, Mama Han shook her head, took an iron fiber and poked the carbon basin, shoveled two shovels of wood charcoal and poured it in, Fang looked up at Xie Jiang and asked, "Now he invites the lady to go to Fuyun Mountain to enjoy the plum blossoms, according to the lady's wishes, ······?" ”
This person planted a crescent moon in the Wisteria Courtyard, and Xie Jiang gave him a hot sun, thinking that Wang Jiu saw the hot sun, even if he didn't thunder and rage, how could he be a little restrained. Who knew that he not only accepted people lightly, but actually sent Qiu Yi in an instant, which is not counting, and it is ambiguous and ambiguous.
Xie Jiang's mind was a little swollen for a while.
After closing his eyes and thinking for a long time, Xie Jiang twisted his face and asked Mama Han, "Where is Fuyun Mountain?" ”
Mama Han was stunned for a moment and said, "Take the west gate out of the city, about forty or fifty miles." It is said that the purple void view on the mountain is very effective, and after the view is planted thousands of acres of plum trees, at this time of year, there are a lot of people who go up the mountain to enjoy the plum blossoms" said this, glanced at Xie Jiang's face, and asked in a low voice, "Lady...... Do you want to be invited? ”
"Did he make an appointment with me?" Xie Jiang raised his arms upward, stretched his waist comfortably, and said softly, "Isn't it okay to ask if you want to go!" It's not rude if the lady doesn't go, right? ”
It still sounds like that.
Mama Han looked at Xie Jiang for a long time, and finally exclaimed: "It's still a smart lady, since he doesn't know what to say, let's just pretend not to understand, this method is good."
Because of the smoke in the house, the carved sash of the mullions was ajar.
Xie Jiang raised his eyes and looked out, and saw a thick layer of snow on the roof of the outer hall, and the ice cubes hanging under the eaves were even longer. Then he looked back at Mama Han and said: "To deal with him, it's not enough to pretend to be stupid and scared" Speaking of this, his eyes rolled left and right, "The day after tomorrow is the first day of the new year, then I am sick, I have a fever, cough and runny nose, and Mama will go to ask a doctor at night"
Yes? Rao is Mama Han is an old man, and she didn't expect Xie Jiang to come up with such an idea, so she was stunned for a long time, smacked her lips and said, "Let's just ignore him, there's no need to toss like this."
"Don't use it for others, he's different" The cold wind blew in from outside, Xie Jiang's nose itched, and he didn't have time to take out the handkerchief, so he leaned back and sneezed loudly. Mama Han hurriedly got up and went to close the window: "Where is someone cursing himself for being sick, what if the gods hear the lady say this, what if they really have to come down with illness?" Go and cover up on the couch."
While complaining in his mouth, he grabbed Xie Jiang and walked to the bedroom.
At this time, I went up to the couch, and I went to ask a big doctor to come to diagnose the patient later, and the time was just right, Xie Jiang obediently followed Mama Han into the inner room.
After a while, Mama Han personally cooked ginger soup and brought it to the main room: "Lady, drink a bowl of ginger soup first to get rid of the cold"
Before this person entered the inner room, Xie Jiang smelled a smell of rushing to his nose, and when he got closer, the spicy smell made people's eyes sour. I couldn't help but cover my nose and ask, "What is this, isn't it just ginger in it?" ”
Mama Han took two steps to the edge of the couch, took the soup bowl with one hand, pulled the quilt cover with the other, and explained in a slow voice: "The lady was rushed by the cold just now, and the old slave was afraid that only the old ginger would not be hot enough, so he grabbed the first two handfuls of spicy seeds." The lady is about to drink it while it's hot, see if she can sweat."
The ginger is still old and spicy, Xie Jiang knows this, not to mention that this person mixed two handfuls of chili peppers into the old ginger. At that moment, he covered his mouth and nose with one hand, pulled the cover with the other hand and didn't let go, and muttered: "Mama, isn't it just a cold wind and a sneeze, I'm fine"
"The lady doesn't know the history of this" Mama Han's wrinkled face was full of solemnity, and she said slowly, "I was cold, first sneezed, and then I would have a fever and cough, and if the internal fire couldn't be dissipated, there would be more people dying on it, well... Don't wait for the cold."
Seeing that this person looked cautious, and he wanted to take care of the soup bowl in his hand, and he wanted to lift the quilt to dig her out, Xie Jiang had no choice, so he let go of the soup bowl and pinch his nose and poured it down. Mama Han grinned and said: "Niang bear with it, when she will cover her body and sweat, it will be fine" As she spoke, she took out a handkerchief and handed it to Xie Jiang, "Lady wipe her sweat, cover it with a quilt and sleep"
Where is the sweat on the face? It's spicy tears and snot. Xie Jiang wiped his nose and wailed in his heart······ If it weren't for the ninth prince's reward for some of the flowers, where would he use this sin, one day he would definitely let him taste the taste of old ginger and chili peppers.
Because he was in a hurry to go back to report the news, Yuanshan went directly out of the second gate. The housekeeper of Neiwan trotted out: "Hey, Yuanshan Gongzi, there is a little lady in the servant's family, who looks very beautiful, it is better to ask her to go to Neiwan to serve the ninth prince······"
The man chased after him and shouted so loudly that the servants who were sweeping the snow all over the yard stopped their shovels and brooms and secretly looked this way.
