Chapter 52: Walking on the Tip of the Knife

"The letter of the month is not pure. Use horsetail (fried) three coins, add a bowl of water and fry until seventy, serve warmly, once a day. Magu handed a prescription to a servant woman in her thirties, and admonished.

Magu set up a table in the courtyard and began to diagnose the patient. One after another, two hours have passed, and the queue is still long.

Although Hu Caiyu on the side was happy in his heart, he was also full of suspicions, although there were a lot of maids and women of all ages in the general's mansion, there were a lot of old and young maids, but they didn't all have problems to see.

"Sister-in-law, the moon letter is blood yellow, cut with yellow eggplant, and dried in the shade for the end. Two dollars per serving, and the warm wine is lowered. ”

The whole group of incense pavilions was very lively, the female dependents all ran to line up to check the pulse, and the male dependents stretched out their heads outside the door.

"Old lady, this group of Xiangge is like a vegetable market, aunts, maids, and mothers-in-law all ran to find that aunt to see the disease." Mama Lin scoffed, expressing extreme dissatisfaction with this matter.

Mrs. Liu, who was kneeling on the cushion and plucking the Buddha beads in her hand, lowered her eyelids and hummed twice, and then stood together from the cushion with the help of Mama Lin, "What's the movement over there in Qingfangyuan?" ”

Mama Lin hunched her waist slightly, and carefully helped the old lady out of the Buddhist hall, "There is no movement, Madame is still in Qingfang Courtyard, and she has never taken half a step out of the courtyard, as if she doesn't know about it." ”

"Hmph, she's also worthy of being called Madame!" Old Madam Liu scolded sharply.

Mama Lin slapped her mouth, and hurriedly changed her words: "That's it, she is just the general's house, and she is better than the concubine." ”

"The general's wife is only Xinniang, even if Xinniang is gone, it will not be the turn of others! Those who gave the general a warm quilt all wanted to take the place of the general's wife! The frown at the corner of Old Madam Liu's eyes tightened, and the lines seemed to have increased a lot in an instant, but the trace of ruthlessness in her eyes had not changed at all.

Mama Lin trembled, and hurriedly echoed: "Although the general's wife is not blessed, she is fortunate to have the old lady's aunt to plan for her and the eldest young master, and she can be regarded as a blessed person." ”

Hearing Mama Lin's words, Old Madam Liu stretched her eyebrows, "As long as I am here for a day, this general's mansion can only belong to Xinniang and Brother Yang." ”

Old Madam Liu was irritable at the moment, walking aimlessly in the house, and Mama Lin didn't dare to squeak, and was carefully supporting. The people who passed by on the side, seeing the sad expression of Mrs. Liu, all knelt on the ground, holding their breath and concentrating.

"I'm tired, go back to Xuan Taoju." Old Madam Liu gave an order, and Mama Lin hurriedly turned around and led Old Madam Liu to the road back to Xuan Taoju.

"Tomorrow, I will send the pearls that the Queen Mother gave me to Mrs. An Qinghou, I haven't seen her for a few days, and I will send someone to carry a letter by the way, telling her that my aunt misses her." When she made this order, the corners of Old Madam Liu's mouth rose, and her face had swept away the unhappiness of Fang Cai.

Mama Lin hurriedly responded. After following the old lady for so long, how could she not understand the deep meaning of these words? This Mrs. An Qinghou is also the niece of Mrs. Liu and the sister of the late general's wife. Besides, Mrs. An Qinghou only came to visit Mrs. Liu last month, and the two families often move around on weekdays, so it is naturally meaningful to suddenly send things and invite people.

And Qunxiang Pavilion, Old Madam Liu also went with it, and did not send anyone to dismiss the crowd, she would never let the He family be a good person, and jump out to be a wicked person, such a thankless thing, she naturally would not do it.

After watching the last person, Magu stretched her waist and felt relieved, "It's good to be able to go back to your old job." ”

"The lady is so angry, she can see so many problems." Mei Yun said flatteringly on the side.

Ma Gu smiled, went back to the house, and freshened up under Mei Xiang's service, while Mei Lan and Mei Yun went down to prepare dinner.

"Mei Xiang, why are there so many people in your house?" Hu Caiyu was on the side, as if asking casually.

Mei Xiang frowned, "It seems that there are many people who are not in our house, and some of them are very raw." ”

Magu, who was washing her face in the copper basin, paused for a moment, raised her wet head, and the water dripped down, "Ah, I don't think some of them are like the people in your house, I should ask them where they came from." After saying that, he continued to lower his head and wash his face.

Ma Gu suddenly realized that it must have been arranged by the general's wife, or for that reason, it was done for the old lady to see. Didn't the old lady doubt her ability? Right now, this ability has really been passed on, and there are facts to prove it, to see who will doubt her midwifery skills and even medical skills in the future.

The general's wife was so cute that she came up with this trick, but she liked it and could do what she liked, and she had no reason to object to it. Anyway, I helped so many people, and I didn't take a penny, so it was regarded as a free clinic. Thinking that she could treat the woman in the future, Magu was happy.

After today's events, presumably there will be an endless stream of people who will come to her to see her in the future, Magu secretly rejoiced.

After dinner, Magu went to bed early, and after a tired day, she actually fell on the pillow.

I had a good night of dreaming until dawn, and when I woke up, I felt refreshed, and Magu couldn't wait to get out of the house, and I couldn't wait to stand on the street, and when I saw a woman, I stepped forward to check her pulse, and looked at her twice with my ability. She was amused by her own ridiculous idea, and if she did, it would be strange that others would not think she was crazy.

After breakfast, Magu was called by the maid in Xuan Taoju, saying that the old lady was looking for her.

Magu thought to herself, it must be for yesterday's incident, in the General's Mansion, all of a sudden all the female dependents rushed to the Qunxiang Pavilion, which must have attracted the attention of the entire General's Mansion. Then, Mrs. Liu will not be an exception, she didn't look for her yesterday, but she went to her today.

Xuan Tao is in the house, the general's wife, the second aunt and the third aunt, Liu Qing are all there, and there is a woman with a bulging belly, presumably this person is the eldest young grandmother.

Magu stepped forward and saluted one by one.

"I heard that your courtyard was very lively yesterday." When Mrs. Liu talked about this, she seemed to be talking about an interesting matter, and there was no displeasure in her expression.

Magu was terrified, she was just temporarily living in the Qunxiang Pavilion, how could she dare to claim her own yard?

"It's just a small effort." It is extremely modest to say.

The eldest young grandmother touched her stomach and said, "There is a female doctor in the house, but I don't know?" A pair of clear eyes fell on Magu, looking back and forth.

Magu also took the opportunity to look at the young grandmother, seventeen or eighteen years old, with two curved eyebrows, a pair of clear and bright black eyes, a white and tender nose bridge, and a ruddy thin lips; The big red Shu brocade skirt embroidered with lilies on her body makes her even more glamorous.

"I've been here for a few days, and I'm afraid of disturbing you, so I didn't let you know." The general's wife said softly to the young grandmother.

The eldest young grandmother looked back and smiled, "I see, all the elders spoil me, and I know it." After speaking, soft eyes looked at Old Madam Liu.

The corners of Old Madam Liu's mouth rose, and her eyes swept over the stomach of the young grandmother.
