After listening to Old Lady Lu's words, Jia Ke just nodded, although there was a smile on his face, but in fact, he was still very worried in his heart, and the quantity of this bottle of spiritual spring water was still a little small.

When Jia Zhu was sick for the first time, Jia Ke also secretly gave him some spiritual spring water, which made him feel better, although the volume of using spiritual spring water this time was more than the previous times, but if Jia Zhu could recover, it was not so easy in Jia Ke's opinion.

Then Mrs. Lu asked Mrs. Wang, "Mrs. I don't know if there is precious ginseng in your house, take a vintage one, and I'll take a look." ”

Mrs. Wang turned her head and looked at Jia Ke, and the meaning was very clear, that is, to let Jia Ke take another thousand-year-old ginseng from his mansion.

Jia Ke didn't have any delay, he went out of the house directly, and then ordered the maids who came with him to go back and get a thousand-year-old ginseng from Qin Keqing for backup.

It didn't take long for a maid to come running panting, still holding a sandalwood box in her arms.

The maid couldn't speak when she came to Jia Ke, but she just sent the box in her arms like Jia Ke.

Jia Ke took the sandalwood box, and when he looked closely, he knew that it was a thousand-year-old ginseng.

So Jia Ke didn't open the box, turned around and went directly back to the back room, and delivered the box to Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang took the box, then held it in both hands and sent it to Mrs. Lu, and said, "Old lady, do you think this thing can be used?" ”

Mrs. Lu took the box, removed the one on the top, and then opened the sandalwood box, only to see a ginseng weighing eight taels lying inside.

You must know that ginseng is seven taels for ginseng, and eight taels is a treasure, and this thing has also become a climate.

Old Lady Lu nodded, and then said to Mrs. Wang: "This thing is just right." ”

Then, regardless of others, he took out a silk handkerchief from his bosom and spread it on the old table, took out his life and put it on this handkerchief, and then took out a sharp knife from the box he carried, and directly cut off all the mustaches and hairs of ginseng.

After that, he took a small teacup, poured Lin Spring Water into the teacup, and then put all these whiskers into the Lingquan Water, soaked for a while, and finally brought it to Mrs. Wang and said, "Please use all these things for your son." ”

Mrs. Wang carefully took the teacup and handed it to Caixia next to her, "Give it to your second master, be careful about this, don't make a mistake." ”

Caixia didn't dare to slack off, gently took the teacup, and then came to the bed of the fake pig, Li Zi had been waiting there for a long time, he used all his strength to help Jia Zhu up from the bed, Jia Zhu was still conscious at this time, he looked at the teacup to his mouth, and he also knew how to swallow, and soon the cup of tea and the ginseng in it were eaten by him.

At this time, Mrs. Lu said to Mrs. Wang: "Your son's illness is really tricky, this time I used this single ginseng soup, although I can save my life, but from now on I am afraid that my health will not be very good, I must take care of it in the future, and then there is that thing must not be touched again, if I touch it again, I am afraid I have no choice." ”

Mrs. Wang kept nodding when she heard this, and then instructed Caiyun again: "You go and collect all the Furong in our house, and burn a fire for me, if anyone in front of your second master in the future, I will break his leg." ”

After listening to Mrs. Wang's instructions, Caiyun nodded: "The slave and maid know, and the slave and maid will start doing it tomorrow during the day, and they will definitely collect all these things in the house." ”

Old Lady Lu then instructed: "The recipe I changed must continue to be used, and I think that from now on your son will not be able to do without that recipe." ”

Mrs. Wang nodded, her heart was also a little sour, Jia Zhu's condition had improved, and she was still thinking about letting him go out to be an official in a year or two, but there was no hope after seeing this scene.

After Mrs. Lu finished instructing, she said goodbye to Jia Ke when she saw that there was nothing to do.

Jia Ke did not slack off, and directly sent Mrs. Lu out of the door, and then returned to Jia Zhu's room again.

At this time, Jia Zhu already had some strength to speak, which showed that the spiritual spring water and thousand-year-old ginseng were still very effective.

And this is Mrs. Wang and Li Zhi sitting in front of Jia Zhu's bed, crying and complaining to Jia Zhu at the same time.

Jia Ke saw that he was fine, so he said goodbye to Mrs. Wang: "Mother, since the second brother is fine, I will leave the child first." ”

Mrs. Wang nodded, and then said: "Thanks to you this time, be careful on the way back, I have written down your love, mother." ”

Jia Ke didn't even dare to, and then bowed out of Jia Zhu's room and went back to the Yanguo Mansion.

After Jia Ke came back, Qin Keqing still didn't sleep, and was still waiting for Jia Ke there.

As soon as she saw Jia Ke coming in, she hurriedly went up to serve him to change clothes.

"How is Second Brother Zhu now?"

"What else? It's worse than before, I think this person is a waste. ”

Qin Keqing said with some sadness on his face: "In the mansion next to him, he still has some ability, if even he is like this, what can he do in the future?" ”

"What can I do, just eat in the house and wait for death, can I still let them lose."

Qin Keqing also just nodded.

So the husband and wife went back to sleep and did not mention it.

Besides, in the Rongguo Mansion the next day, I don't know what happened, there were rumors that Jia Zhu was seriously ill again and had eaten something that he shouldn't eat.

And this kind of words quickly reached Jia Zheng's ears, and he was furious after hearing it.

So with a few small servants, he broke into Jia Zhu's room directly.

At this time, Jia Zhu had already improved a little, and was lying on the bed weakly talking to Li Zhi about family life.

Unexpectedly, Jia Zheng suddenly broke in, Jia Zhu hurriedly knelt on the bed and gave Jia Zheng a salute.

Jia Zheng was originally aggressive and wanted to come over to teach Jia Zhu a lesson, but as soon as he entered the room and saw his weak appearance, he immediately threw his anger out of the clouds.

"You indisputable thing, I thought you were already fine, but I didn't expect you to use that thing again, if there are three long and two short, then what should your mother and I do."

Jia Zhu is extremely ashamed now, he can only keep kowtowing to Jia Zheng when he kneels on the bed.

Jia Zheng lost his temper for a while, finally calmed down, and then said to Li Zhi, who was kneeling next to him: "Quickly help Zhu'er to bed to rest." ”

Only then did Li Zhi help Jia Zhu back to lie down on the bed.

Jia Zheng looked at Jia Zhu's weak appearance, and said helplessly: "This time you have to remember the lesson, there is no way for the family to save you for the third time." ”

After Jia Zheng said this, he didn't pay attention to Jia Zhu, so he left the room, then looked up to the sky and sighed, and left the inner house to go to the outer study.

And Mrs. Wang soon got the news that Jia Zheng went to Jia Zhu's room and made a fuss.

After Mrs. Wang got the news, she didn't make a noise, but sat in the room all day, and when she finally came out, she was nothing.

And this matter soon passed quietly under Wang Xifeng's suppression.

And this matter soon reached Jia Mu's ears, she just shook her head after hearing it, and said to the mandarin duck next to her: "I didn't want to pay attention to these things, but I didn't expect them to make more and more trouble." ”

Mandarin Duck could only comfort Mother Jia and said: "The old lady doesn't have to worry too much, one is that Second Master Zhu's body is fine now, as long as he slowly recupes, it doesn't matter, and the second is that some rumors are just jealousy, as long as you don't care about him after a while, there will be no more, if you are more anxious, the more the rumors will not stop." ”

Jia Mu nodded, and then said: "Although this is the truth, if you don't teach her a lesson, then our house will not be a mess in the future." ”

After Jia Mu said this, she thought for a while, and then said to the mandarin duck: "I always dreamed of the old man during this time, and I have no way to pray for blessings again. Oh, your wife is a housekeeper again, you can't leave her house, you pass on my words, let Aunt Zhao go to the family temple, come back after the New Year, and pray for me every day for the old man. ”

Besides, Aunt Zhao heard the rumors about Jia Zhu in the house this morning, Aunt Zhao stood at the door with a handful of melon seeds, listening to the legends of those subordinates, and the smile on her face never stopped.

At this time, Jia Tanchun hurriedly ran over, and as soon as she saw Aunt Zhao, she pulled her into the house.

After Aunt Zhao entered the house, she said with an unhappy face: "What's the matter?" In a hurry, I tore up all my newly made clothes. ”

Jia Tanchun looked at Aunt Zhao's indifferent appearance, and the breath in her heart was held there, and she couldn't go up or down.

Finally, Jia Tanchun calmed his breath, and then said: "Auntie, did you spread those rumors in the house?" ”

Aunt Zhao listened to it and said nonchalantly: "Who are you listening to nonsense?" I sat honestly in the room, and the rumors became my spread. ”

Jia Tanchun looked at Aunt Zhao like this, and really had no choice but to sit there and analyze the matter for her.

"Auntie, you didn't get any benefit from doing this, and you offended Mrs. and the old lady in vain, when I was in Mrs. Ann just now, Mrs. didn't have a nose on my face, it seems that I have guessed that you spread these rumors."

Aunt Zhao was silent for a long time after hearing this, then raised her head and said to Jia Tanchun: "I didn't want to tell you these things, but I thought that this time I made a mistake and I had to be punished." So I'll tell you about the cause and effect, and I hope you will take care of Huan'er more in the house. ”

After listening to this, Jia Tanchun glanced at Aunt Zhao in surprise, although they said that they were mother and daughter, they had never talked like this.

Aunt Zhao sat there with no focus on her eyes, but just chattered: "The current glory of our mansion is all from Uncle Ke, and the future of our Rongguo Mansion is limitless." ”

Jia Tanchun is a smart person, so she naturally understands the truth, so she just nodded, silent and did not speak, she wanted to see what her aunt could say.

"Uncle Ke naturally doesn't have to worry about us, his wealth in the mansion next to him is a hundred times stronger than our Rongguo Mansion, but the future heir of our Rongguo Mansion is said to have two sisters-in-law to inherit."

After Jia Tanchun heard this, he glanced at his aunt in some surprise, but he didn't expect this aunt to think of this layer, which made her heart pound.

Aunt Zhao continued: "Our Huan'er, if it is a person who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, I won't worry about it, no matter how the house is, it will not shorten his wealth, but our Huan'er is a hard-working person, I can't help but plan for his future." ”

"Now Jia Baoyu is already a waste known to the whole capital, and only Jia Zhu is a threat to our Huan'er, as long as Jia Zhu is also a bad thing, in the end, for the glory of Rongguo Mansion, your father may only be able to pass on this huge Rongguo Mansion to our Huan'er."

Jia Tanchun immediately laughed angrily after hearing this, she didn't expect her aunt to be so naïve and completely forget the rules of etiquette.

Aunt Zhao also saw Jia Tanchun's disdain, but he said firmly, "If you don't fight, how can you know the result?" ”

"Auntie, I'm afraid I'm confused, it's that the second brother Zhu and the third brother Bao are useless, and there is still a big man living in the house next to him, and he still has heirs there."

Aunt Zhao smiled mysteriously after hearing this, and then said, "If you're worried about Jia Lian, then there's no need." ”

Jia Tanchun glanced at Aunt Zhao, a little unsure of what she meant, but Aunt Zhao didn't explain to him.

While the two of them were talking here, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and the mother and daughter hurried to help, and went out together, and saw that the mandarin duck was already standing in the yard.

Jia Tanchun hurriedly went over to laugh at the mandarin duck, "Sister mandarin duck, why do you have the kung fu to come here?" ”

The mandarin duck showed a smile to Jia Tanchun, and then immediately said to Aunt Zhao with a serious face: "The old lady has something to say, let the aunt go to the family temple to pray for the old man, and come back after the New Year, someone will come to serve the aunt in a while, and the aunt should make preparations now." ”

After the mandarin duck said this, he didn't delay any longer, turned around and left.

Jia Tanchun was also a little anxious when she saw the mandarin duck leaving, and now her eyes were a little red, although he had a bad relationship with Aunt Zhao, but after all, she was a biological mother and daughter, and now she was also worried about Aunt Zhao's future.

How did he know that Aunt Zhao didn't care about herself, he took Jia Tanchun's hand and entered the house, and then said: "This is also a good thing, I will avoid this situation now, and when I come back, this matter will have already passed." ”

What else can Jia Tanchun say? I could only help Aunt Zhao clean up her things with tears in her eyes.

At this time, Jia Huan also hurriedly ran in from outside, and as soon as he entered the door and saw that his mother and sister were there, and they were packing up their things, he was a little hesitant.

"What are you doing here, aunt and sister? It's not Madame who wants to punish you. ”

Seeing this meaning, even Jia Huan saw the mystery.

Aunt Zhao said to Jia Huan casually: "It's just to live in the family temple for the old lady for a few days, and I'll come back after the New Year." You listen to your sister at home, don't be naughty, study hard, and I will be reliable for you in the future. ”

Jia Huan is also sensible, and when she saw Aunt Zhao like this, she could only nod her head with tears in her eyes.

After a while, a few mothers-in-law shouted in the courtyard, and Aunt Zhao did not delay any longer, and went out with a few prepared clothes.

Jia Tanchun and Jia Huan kept sending Aunt Zhao to the second gate, and then they reluctantly watched Aunt Zhao get on a small sedan chair and leave far away.

Jia Tancun looked at Aunt Zhao who was far away, and felt that all her efforts were in vain, the more she was in this kind of deep house, the more she was well-behaved, and it was impossible for a concubine to inherit the family business no matter what, unless this concubine was very good, just like Jia Ke.
