293: It's too late
After the song, Nalan Jinxiu put his hands on the guqin and said with a smile: "That's also the third brother's order, I should have paid too much attention to the song before, but I lost the artistic conception I should have." Since it is flowing water, it should have the meaning of flowing water, which is what I realized when you asked me to listen to the sound of water. ”
Ji Hongye's eyebrows were picturesque, and he said softly: "Let's hear it." ”
"The flow of water is different, and the music behaves differently. Where the water is turbulent, it is murmuring, and where it is weak, it is clear and cold. There is not only the surging roar of the dragon, but also the wandering of the light boat. Everyone's music should be different, because the sound of water is different. ”
"The child can be taught. Ji Hongye's expression was quite pleased.
"Why, talk like you're a teacher. ”
"It's here. Ji Hongye said.
Nalan Jinxiu didn't believe it, and was about to open the curtain of the carriage to look, when he found that the carriage had stopped. She looked at Ji Hongye in disbelief, and felt that her third brother was really enlightened.
Ji Hongye couldn't stand her eyes, and said helplessly: "Don't look at me like a monster, I just know how far the distance is, and I also know the speed of the car, so the time is not difficult to speculate." ”
"There's no timer in the car, how do you know the time?"
"Feeling. Ji Hongye had already gotten out of the carriage as he spoke, and still helped her out of the carriage as usual.
"Madame, you are back. Ruyi hurriedly ran over to her and said to her.
"What's wrong?" Nalan Jinxiu couldn't help frowning when she saw her panicking.
"Aunt Luo made a lot of trouble after giving birth, and the old lady asked you to come back and take a look. ”
Nalan Jinxiu was following Ji Hongye's side, and her brows frowned even deeper when she heard this: "When will it be my turn to take care of this kind of thing?"
"Aunt Su is now in solitary confinement, no one is in charge of the backyard, and the old lady may want you to take over. Jixiang said on the side.
"I'm not going. Nalan Jinxiu pulled the corner of Ji Hongye's clothes and walked straight to the bedroom.
Ji Xiang Ruyi was still waiting for the third master to speak, but when she saw him enter the house with her, she didn't have any reproach for Nalan Jinxiu's words just now. The two of them suddenly became anxious, and said behind them, "Madam, this can't be done." ”
Nalan Jinxiu sighed lowly: "Don't rush me, I'll go over later, the third brother's injury needs to be dealt with in time." ”
Ji Xiang Ruyi noticed that the third master's arm was wrapped in gauze, and he didn't dare to say more, so he just closed the door and went out. Nalan Jinxiu couldn't live in peace, she didn't want to take over the Ji family's backyard, because her aunt was too complicated.
If she is allowed to take care of this big family, she will have to keep an eye on those aunts every day, and she can't let go of the wind and grass, so how can she have time to go to the hospital?
This restless mood was maintained until she saw Mrs. Ji. Everything was as Jixiang said, the old lady wanted to hand over the management of the backyard to her, and Nalan Jinxiu had a headache for a while. In her opinion, it is much more difficult to manage the food and clothing of a large family than to diagnose people.
When Mrs. Ji saw her hesitation, she knew that she was worried, and she smiled softly: "I also came from your age, and I also know that it is not easy to manage a family. I was also scared at that time, but no matter how scared I was, I had to hold on, in the courtyard of the deep house, except for only one Mama Guo, I didn't even have a confidant to talk to. You are luckier than me, you have your third brother. ”
Nalan Jinxiu didn't say anything more, she knew very well in her heart that everyone was responsible for coming to this world. She married the third brother and became the eldest daughter-in-law of the Ji family, so she must guard the inner house for him.
can't be pityd and indulged by the third brother, she is too dependent on her own temperament, and the hardships she has endured in her previous life must not be repeated in this life. She saluted respectfully and said, "My grandson will live up to my grandmother's trust." ”
Mrs. Ji looked at her gently: "I'm old and I can't do many things, but I can help you get familiar with all this, lest one day I can't do it, and you will be manipulated and calculated by others." The matter of the back house is far from being as simple as you think, and a woman's heart is often the most difficult thing to understand. ”
Nalan Jinxiu felt that the old lady's face was not very good, she leaned up, grabbed the old lady Ji's wrist, and found that her pulse was disordered, and she was actually in a state of decadence. She stared wide-eyed, looked at the old man who seemed to be in good spirits before, and asked anxiously, "Grandmother, how long have you been unwell?"
"Some days, people are old and useless. "Mrs. Ji doesn't doubt him.
Nalan Jinxiu concentrated on her pulse and found that her body was very weak, in her impression, her grandmother's health has always been very good, and it stands to reason that it shouldn't be like this. She asked again: "Grandmother, think about when you started to have fatigue, heart palpitations, and can't sleep at night. ”
Mrs. Ji shook her head, and Mama Guo next to her said: "The old lady just didn't sleep well at first, but the situation was not obvious, I invited Dr. Su to come and see, saying that the elderly have less sleep, which is also normal." It seems that more than ten days ago, I began to lose my appetite and always said that my heart was uncomfortable. ”
Nalan Jinxiu carefully checked the pulse again, and knew in her heart: "What does grandmother like to eat recently?"
"The old lady especially likes to eat a kind of dim sum these days, called white potato cake, which was sent by Brother Wei'er's wife. ”
"White potatoes?"
"This is a specialty of Lizhou, Brother Wei'er's wife is from Lizhou, and she likes this, so she planted some in their degree. Although it doesn't look good, it's barely enough. The old lady inadvertently ate it once, and thought it was very delicious, and she didn't leave the meal for the past few days. ”
Nalan Jinxiu took Mrs. Ji's hand, held it gently, and said with a smile: "Grandmother's body is fine, but she has eaten too many sweets, and some food has accumulated food, which has caused anger and failed to dredge it in time." I'll prescribe some medicine for you, drink it for two days, and see the effect first, as for the white potato cake, you can't eat it anymore. ”
Mrs. Ji has long known that she is proficient in medicine, this is something she has never been able to believe, when did the little girl who grew up beside her learn medical skills? She had asked before, she only said that she studied medical books at home and slowly figured it out. This may sound strange, but it's not impossible, there are always people in this world who are different and talented.
After Nalan Jinxiu said goodbye, she was still pressed by these two things, one was the right to be a housekeeper, and the other was her grandmother's illness. Housekeeping is naturally difficult, but as long as you are willing to learn hard, you should be able to do it. In comparison, her grandmother's illness was even more problematic, and she now suspects that she had food poisoning.
If it is really a sweet potato cake, then it is also a mess in Ji Hongwen's family, I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional. She didn't have a deep impression of Ji Hongwen, as the eldest son of Ji Jiashu, he was two years older than the third brother, and he had already been separated to live separately, and it seemed that he already had three children.
She tried hard to remember the relationship between Ji Hongwen's family. The three children were born to his original wife, or did he have another concubine, but he didn't pay attention at all, so he didn't get anything.
When she returned, she had dinner with a lot of heart. Ji Hongye probably knew what was going on, thinking that if she really didn't want to take care of the house, he would personally discuss with his grandmother and find a safe person to do this, so he couldn't wronged her.
Nalan Jinxiu naturally didn't know that the third brother was already planning for her, and nestled in his arms after bathing, not knowing how to speak. She was afraid that if her grandmother hadn't been poisoned by white potato cake, the third brother would blame her for stirring up a relationship with her eldest brother. After all, in this kind of big family, the relationship between brothers is very sensitive, especially between concubines.
Ji Hongye saw that she didn't speak, and he didn't want to take the initiative to break the silence, so he lowered his head to kiss her, and pecked her on the face deep and shallow.
Nalan Jinxiu felt a little tingling on her face, and said in a low voice: "Third brother, haven't you shaved your face?"
"Huh?" his voice was low and hoarse.
"The beard is prickly. ”
Ji Hongye is a very neat person, he will shave his face every morning, this is the most normal thing, could it be that his beard has grown fast recently? He touched his chin with his left hand and found that it was still as smooth as ever.
Sure enough, it was her way again.
Reaching out and clasping her waist, forcing her to face with him, his eyes were deep, and his tone was mixed with coercion: "You are getting bolder and bolder, even I dare to entertain." ”
Nalan Jinxiu rejected him and whispered, "I didn't entertain you! Third brother, don't make trouble, I have something to tell you." ”
"It's never too late to talk about it later. Considering her young age, he has always been very accommodating to her in love matters after marriage. The little girl's body is delicate and weak, and it is always a little difficult to accommodate him, and she still sometimes hurts after more than two months. Because he takes care of her, he always restrains himself, so it's still easy to treat her now, and he can't control his thoughts at the slightest contact.
"Third brother......" Nalan Jinxiu held his hand and begged, "Don't be, I have a lot of things to do tomorrow morning." ”
"Soon fine. ”
His fingers were a little hot, touching her skin, and her body shivered. After more than two months of marriage, the most Ji Hongye did was to familiarize herself with her body.
Nalan Jinxiu felt a little uncomfortable, and was about to let him talk to her well, when he heard a chuckle in his ear, and he whispered to her ear: "Little girl, you seem to have grown up." ”
Nalan Jinxiu's head seemed to be in water at this time, and she couldn't think at all, she asked puzzledly, "What do you mean?"
Ji Hongye was stopped by her question, and he found that he didn't know how to answer. The lips shifted to her chin, and she pecked shallowly, intent on reassuring her.
Nalan Jinxiu's head suddenly sobered up, her cheeks turned red instantly, her two hands clenched into fists to push him away, and she said hesitantly: "Third brother, you only asked for it last night...... Next time, I have serious things tomorrow, very, very important serious things, and I must not be lazy. ”
Ji Hongye lowered his head and said in a dumb voice: "Little girl, it's too late for you to refuse now." ”
Besides, isn't that serious?
The brocade tent fell, and the red candles reflected the undulating figures between the couches, which did not stop for a long time......
