Chapter 237: Progress

Qiu Jinting's child is the first person of the grandchildren of Marquis Jingyuan, and it stands to reason that this full moon should be held in a big way no matter what.

Now, instead of setting up wine in Jingchun Hall or the front yard, he didn't even go to Qinyi Courtyard, but just had a small gathering with everyone in Jiang Ke's Feng Courtyard.

Lu Qingrong was originally very puzzled, but when he saw the child's appearance at this moment, he finally understood that those statements such as "not suitable for tossing" were not excuses, but real reasons.

It is very strange that this child is so different from when he was born. Not to mention that now that Shun Lì has been born, even if the fetus is conceived in the womb, in this month, I dare not say that it looks like a day, it will definitely grow very fast.

At this time, I saw that the child was wrapped in a big red butterfly pattern soft silk swaddling clothes, his complexion was particularly pale, his body was extremely thin, and his small head was slightly larger than his fist, and he barely moved in the nurse's arms, only occasionally opened his eyes, but he didn't seem to be interested in the surrounding qiē, and he didn't see the liveliness of a full-moon baby at all.

On the contrary, Qiu Jinting in front of him recovered faster, and his face was much more ruddy compared to a month ago.

Qiu Jinting wore a red engraved silk placket today, a water-colored skirt embroidered with pomegranate flowers, and a complete set of red gold dotted emerald head in her hair. It's just that every time I look at my child, I inevitably frown slightly, and I become a little preoccupied.

As soon as Lu Qingrong came in, he first gave his full moon gift, a pair of red gold silk hanging bell bracelets.

After Qiu Jinting thanked him, he handed it over to Xiangqiao to put away the red gold and jade longevity lock piece given by Mrs. Wu.

Obviously, this child's condition at this time is not suitable for wearing these.

It's rare that Tang Shan didn't come to join in the fun, Jiang Ke said that he was afraid that people would make more noise about the child, so he only brought a small white jade plate for her as a congratulatory gift.

And for so many years, Marquis Jingyuan, only when there is a big happy event in the mansion, he has only been out of Jingchun Hall once or twice, and it is normal that he did not come over today.

said that it was a full moon meal, but there were only four people on the table: Mrs. Wu, Jiang Ke, Qiu Jinting and Lu Qingrong.

The atmosphere was even more strange.

Although Qiu Jinting was out of confinement and his improvement was better, the damage to his body from dieting during pregnancy was too great, and he felt tired after not persevering for a while.

Mrs. Wu has not been able to concentrate on eating, seeing that her grandson is growing so slowly, she is distressed, and keeps asking what Imperial Doctor Zou said, and carefully inquired about the nurse for the child's eating.

The nurse did not dare to slack off, and repeatedly assured that although the child ate less than others, it was still normal, and now it was so thin and small, just because the month was too light, it was not easy to recuperate.

Mrs. Wu still couldn't get down, for fear that something would happen to this child.

Jiang Ke seemed much calmer, and he was no different from the past from beginning to end.

Lu Qingrong saw that everyone didn't speak, so he simply lowered his head and ate the vegetables, and didn't say much.

The meal was surprisingly quiet, but in the end, there was still some fruit, and after the discussion between Mrs. Wu and Jiang Ke, the child finally had a name at the time of the full moon, Brother Xiang.

took the meaning of Wei Feng Xianglin.

After that, on the way back to Yuyuan, Lu Qingrong sat in the green silk car, still thinking about Qiu Jinting's tangled eyes at that time.

Lu Qingrong is more worried about Brother Xiang'er, Jiang Ke and Qiu Jinting don't care, after all, they are all a family, especially the child is so pitiful, he doesn't want him to do anything good.

And at this time, there is also He Qingwan, who has already returned to Hefu.

Since coming back, the more He Qingwan thought about it, the more wrong it became.

Although he is not married yet and does not understand many things, he has rarely heard of a child born in these six months who can survive.

At this time, thinking of the secret conversation between Imperial Physician Zou and Qiu Jinting, there was a certain thought in my heart.

But on the day he left the Hou Mansion, that is, the day after Qiu Jinting gave birth, from Princess Chengyang, who came to visit early in the morning, to Mrs. Wu and Lu Qingrong, no one had any doubts about this, and they all looked like they should be. Among them, Mrs. Wu is especially especial. Didn't they notice anything unusual?

It's just that He Qingwan has only occasionally remembered this recently.

Because she's about to get married.

Although Qiu Muyun wanted to engage in Huang's family business, the rest of the He family was very much in favor of it, from He Zhiyuan and Feng to He Kai.

At Najib's time, Feng did not block Qiu Muyun's big package, but followed and supervised the whole process, so that she did not have any chance to show it.

In the end, in the course of more than a month, the progress of the proposal was unusually smooth.

And today, it is the day when the Chengping Marquis Mansion gives a dowry gift.

The second lady of the Chengping Marquis Mansion, as Song Shixiang's second aunt, naturally will not be absent from this occasion.

I thought that I would be treated as a guest in Hefu, but I didn't expect that it would make her angry.

At the beginning, it was reasonable to say that He Zhiyuan and Feng were polite and thoughtful to her, and He Kai also specially asked the Ministry of Rites for a day off for this matter. Only Qiu Muyun was a little lukewarm to her.

Qiu Muyun was even more aggrieved in his heart.

I saw the dowry gift from the Chengping Marquis Mansion, but it was only 3,000 taels of silver, no gold at all, and the fineness of the jewelry was not very new...... Qiu Muyun couldn't control his expression at all, and the disappointment on his face was obvious.

When the Marquis of Jingyuan got married, Mrs. Wu publicized the heavy dowry to everyone, and Qiu Muyun naturally heard about it, so she was so envious at that time, she felt that Yin Pingru and the others really made money...... Looking at these things in front of me now, my heart is very unbalanced. Although she knew that the Chengping Marquis Mansion could not be compared with the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion at all, not to mention that Song Shixiang was still a concubine, she just couldn't turn this corner in her heart, thinking that they were all Hou Mansions, how could the difference be so big!

These complaints are just a matter of thinking about it in your heart, but Qiu Muyun is not like this.

When she sent the second lady of Chengping Houfu out alone, before anyone went far, I don't know if she muttered to herself, or complained to the maid next to her, in short, the sentence "It's all Houfu, why is there such a big difference!" The second lady listened to it really.

The second lady knew in her heart that life in their Hou Mansion was okay, but every time there was such a wedding or funeral, it seemed that it was not so rich. At the beginning, the prince of Chengping Hou married his wife, although it was much better than Song Shixiang this time, but it was also a little stretched.

The second lady was originally a little embarrassed, but Qiu Muyun's words directly made her energetic, and she immediately stopped and turned around and walked back.

"Hou Mansion? What are you referring to in this sentence, but the Marquis of Jingyuan? The second lady asked directly, in an unkind tone.

In front of the second lady, a more well-informed person, Qiu Muyun's thoughts have already been revealed.

Qiu Muyun was seen through by others, and he refused to admit defeat: "What's the matter! Although Second Master Song can't be compared with other people's sons, he can't be much worse! ”

"Huh." The second lady didn't laugh angrily, she didn't plan to say anything like "the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion is rushing" and so on, but directly poked at the point, "Mrs. He is really good at laughing, you can't just say half of this!" The marriage of the Marquis of Jingyuan was last year, and I remember it clearly. Can't you just stare at the dowry of the Hou Mansion, the makeup that the Lu family accompanied, is it difficult not to mention it? ”

As she spoke, the second lady pretended to pause, patted her head, and then said with a slight exaggeration: "Yo, look at my memory, you were not invited to the Hou Mansion to watch!" Since you are particularly concerned about the affairs of the Lu family, why didn't you inquire about it? ”

Qiu Muyun was speechless. Only then did she remember that she had vaguely heard that Lu Qingrong's makeup at that time was very jaw-dropping, and she definitely didn't want to believe it at that time, so she forgot about it.

The second lady saw the change in her expression, and then said: "We all know that Daqi has an unwritten custom, dowry and dowry, and has always paid attention to this matching. Everyone knows what the situation of your He Mansion is, so you can also save some! ”

Qiu Muyun couldn't refute it, his momentum weakened suddenly, and he began to talk vaguely, no longer involving the dowry, and was also silent about dowry and the like.

Only then did the second lady get relieved and left the He Mansion with her head held high.

The more Qiu Muyun thought about it, the more angry he became, and he could only comfort himself in his heart.

Thinking that the prince of Chengping Hou is not young, and he has no heirs, there are unforeseen circumstances, so although Song Shixiang is a concubine, he can have a better future if he can't keep it.

However, the Marquis of Jingyuan is far away in Mobei, although the first battle was victorious, as long as this battle is not over, it will always be a life-long errand......

Thinking of the end, Qiu Muyun gradually regained his confidence, just waiting for the day when he could have the last laugh.

The He Mansion is in full swing preparing for the marriage, but Lu Qingrong has not made progress here.

It's been a month since I was reading medical books in Jiang Xuan's study, but I felt more and more that those medicinal materials were very ordinary.

Although we have not found exactly the same recipe, we have found many very similar recipes, the ingredients are almost the same, according to the book, all of them are medicines that calm the mind and nourish qi, nourish the body and invigorate qi, and the medicinal properties are mild.

couldn't help but make Lu Qingrong doubt his previous guess.

On this day, Lu Qingrong was holding the book and studying it carefully, when Mo Nan suddenly came in to report that Master Sun was here.

Lu Qingrong was stunned at first, she hadn't seen Sun Yiming for a long time.

He helped himself a lot last time, and after a few contacts, he spoke freely and freely, so that his resistance to him was not as strong as before.

Lu Qingrong immediately asked Mo Nan to invite him in.

Sun Yiming was extremely restrained today, he refused to sit, and he didn't drink the tea that Luzhu brought him, so he stood opposite Lu Qingrong.

Feeling his strange situation today, Lu Qingrong's heart suddenly sank.

"Master Sun is here, but what's the urgency?" Lu Qingrong asked tentatively, his voice looking extra careful.

"There's a thing...... I also thought about it before I came here, don't worry!" R1152
