That night, after dinner, Jia Ke and Aunt Zhou said: "Auntie, after cultivating these days, drinking the bitter yellow soup every day, my son really can't help it, and my son's illness has been cured, there is no need to continue to take medicine." ”

"The prescription was prescribed by Imperial Physician Wang, it is very effective, I don't see that your life is almost gone, or I took this medicine to pull my life back, I see that you still take it for a few more days, if the medicine is bitter, I will ask your uncle (Aunt Zhou's brother) to go to the street to buy some candied fruit, and take a few pills after taking the medicine." Aunt Zhou listened to what he said, and said uneasily.

Jia Kexin said: "I'm afraid it's not Imperial Physician Wang's prescription that works, but Judge Cui's spell that works." "He saw with his own eyes that the soul of the real Jia Ke went to the city of vain death to report.

"Auntie, this is a three-point poison of medicine, there is no way to take medicine when I am sick, I am still taking it now, I am afraid that it will not only be ineffective for the body but also harmful to health, if my aunt is not at ease, it is better to ask a doctor to take a look, if I recover, I don't need to take medicine." Jia Ke had to persuade again, and knew that Aunt Zhou was very concerned about his future in studying, so he persuaded again: "Besides, I have been sick for a few days, I don't know how much homework I have fallen behind, I am not as smart as others (Jia Zhu), and now I have fallen behind with so many homework, but how can I be good?" ”

Aunt Zhou thought about it for a while, and then looked at Jia Ke in the past few days, and it was indeed no big deal. Then he said, "Then I will go back to my lord and wife tomorrow, and ask an old doctor to come and show you." and if he is healed, he has relied on thee. ”

After speaking, he sighed that he couldn't ask Imperial Doctor Wang to treat Jia Ke again, and he was able to invite Imperial Doctor Wang to come before, but it was Aunt Zhou who relied on her own maid who was valued by Jia's mother, and Jia's mother saw that Jia Ke was the first son of her youngest son Jia Zheng, so she made an exception and invited Imperial Doctor Wang to come with her own post. If it is how others invite the doctor.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Aunt Zhou went to Mrs. Wang's room to ask for peace, only to see that Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang had finished freshening up and were sitting in the main hall, ready to have breakfast. Aunt Zhou hurriedly asked the former servants to dine.

After the two of them finished eating, they sat down again. Aunt Zhou stood aside, and when she saw that there was nothing else to do, she stepped forward and said to Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang: "Master, Mrs. Uncle has been doing well in the past few days, I don't know if I should ask a doctor to come and have a look." If it's really great, it will save the lord and wife from worrying, and he can continue to study and improve, and if there is an interest in the future, he can also repay the lord and wife for raising him. ”

"Ke'er has really seen each other these days, if you don't say that I will also invite a doctor to come in the next two days, otherwise I don't know how much homework will be delayed." Jia Zheng heard Aunt Zhou say this, so he responded.

When Mrs. Wang saw that Jia Zheng responded, she instructed Zhou Rui's housekeeper to stand on the side: "You go to Hu Qingtang today to ask Dr. Hu to come and diagnose the uncle's pulse, see if it's good, don't delay your studies." ”

Zhou Rui's family should be in a hurry.

"When Dr. Hu comes, I will listen to it." Jia Zhengyan said, pondered for a while, and then said: "Aunt Zhou and Ke'er are just a little maid to serve, I'm afraid they won't be busy." You add another maid to Aunt Zhou, and I think that the one called Chuncao is still quite enterprising in serving Ke'er, so let's ask her to serve Ke'er specially. ”

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she hurriedly stood up and said, "This is my fault, I am worried about family affairs, and I am busy for a while." Zhu'er already has two maids to serve, why don't you add another one to the eldest brother, okay? ”

"No, Ke'er is different from Zhu'er, it's not too late to add it when it's bigger." Jia Zheng said.

Mrs. Wang heard this and knew that this was Jia Zheng and her sister-in-law, so as to reassure her. While relaxing.

After nothing to do for a while, Jia Zheng went to the front study, and Mrs. Wang asked Aunt Zhou to step down.

At this time, Zhou Rui's family said to Mrs. Wang: "Madam, I see that the master is still on your side, this time, but because the one over there almost died, I care a little more, and Mrs. doesn't have to take it to heart." ”

Mrs. Wang said: "A few days ago, I went to visit over there, and found that Brother Ke'er's words were not as good as before, and it seemed that he had woken up, and if he could live a stable life, our family would not lack his share of property. ”

"In the future, those little tricks will be put away, there is no need to make people laugh." Mrs. Wang smiled and said to Zhou Rui's command. Zhou Rui's family responded.

It was almost noon, and Dr. Hu was invited, and Jia Zheng personally accompanied him to Jia Ke's room.

Jia Ke saw Jia Zheng accompanying an old man with gray hair into the courtyard, and immediately got up to greet him.

Jia Zheng saw that Jia Keli was thoughtful for a few years, and was quite satisfied, and nodded to Jia Ke with a smile. He turned around and said to Dr. Hu: "This is my son, who was seriously ill a few days ago, and her grandmother was worried, so she invited the imperial doctor in the palace to prescribe a prescription. ”

Dr. Hu did not diagnose the pulse first, but asked for the prescription of Imperial Physician Wang. After reading it, he said to Jia Zheng: "The old man has read the prescription of the imperial doctor, this medicine is very dangerous, which shows the danger of the little boy's condition at that time. When I entered the door today, I saw that the little boy had a ruddy complexion, and the Yin Tang did not look like he was sick. If I look at the pulse again, if nothing happens, the adults will be free to worry. ”

After speaking, he asked Jia Ke to sit down at the table, and the maid Chuncao hurriedly moved the embroidery stool for Jia Zheng and the doctor to sit. Old Doctor Hu put his hand on Jia Ke's vein and carefully discerned it. After a while, Jia Ke returned his hand and took the pulse again.

After diagnosing the pulse again, he got up and saluted Jia Zhengshi: "Don't worry, my lord, the pulse of the little boy is strong and powerful, and the five internal organs and blood run smoothly, which is much stronger than ordinary people." The little boy's illness has been cured. ”

When Jia Zheng heard this, he was overjoyed, thanked Dr. Hu, asked his relatives to send the consultation money, and asked him to send Dr. Hu away. He turned around and said to Jia Ke: "Once the illness has been cured, you must not slack off." Tomorrow you will go with your mother (Mrs. Wang) to your grandmother's place and kowtow and come back, and then go to the study to study. I've already told my husband that you must make up for the homework you have missed. You have to work hard, or I'll skin you carefully. ”

Jia Zheng was originally going to be born in Kejia, but as soon as his father Jia Daishan's deathbed was published, the emperor took pity on the ancestors, so he gave Jia Zheng an additional title of director and asked him to enter the ministry to study. Jia Zhengjun's order cannot be violated, and he has deeply regretted it since then. put his hope on the next generation, so he was quite strict with Jia Ke and Jia Zhu's studies.

Jia Ke was naturally full of respect, saying that he would not disappoint his father and would definitely get ahead. Jia Zheng left satisfied.

On the second day, Jia Ke went to Mrs. Wang's place with Aunt Zhou first and greeted Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang encouraged a few words, and when she saw that she had nothing to do, she took Jia Ke and Aunt Zhou to Jia's mother.

When they entered the Hanging Flower Gate, they saw that on both sides were the verandahs of the hand-copying hands, and in the middle was the hall, and there was a marble screen with a red sandalwood shelf on the ground. Turning the screen, there are three small halls, and behind the hall is the main courtyard. The five upper rooms in the front are all carved beams and painted buildings, and the wings of the verandah through the mountains on both sides are hung with birds such as parrots and thrushes of various colors. There were a few girls dressed in red and green sitting on the steps, and when they saw them coming, they all smiled and greeted them and said, "The old lady was chanting just now!" Coincidentally, it came. Several people scrambled to open the curtain, and someone reported to the inside: "Mrs. and Uncle Ke are here." ”

When a few people entered the room, they saw this kind old lady sitting on the soft collapse, and Mrs. Wang, Jia Ke and Aunt Zhou hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects. Jia Ke knew that this was Jia's mother.

After they finished saluting, Jia's mother asked them to sit down, and Jia Ke got up again at this time and knelt down in the middle, bowed to Jia's mother and said: "My grandson is sick this time, thanks to the old ancestor who invited the imperial doctor, this saved my grandson's life." Everything about the grandson belongs to the ancestors, so there is no other thank-you gift, just kowtow to the ancestors here to express the filial piety of the grandson. ”

After speaking, he grabbed the ground with his head, kept kowtowing, and his head collided with the floor tiles with a "bang, bang" sound.

When Jia's mother saw that she hurriedly asked the maid to help Jia Ke up, she was very relieved and felt that it was in vain to invite the imperial doctor for him, and at the same time, she was quite proud, thinking that having such filial piety as him must have been taught by Aunt Zhou from time to time, and Aunt Zhou was a credible person she personally concocted, which shows the love of their mother and son for themselves. Mother Jia thought so in her heart and complained in her mouth: "You monkeys broke my heart, your illness is just right, and if something happens to make my wife and son not feel distressed to death." Hurry up, your body is important. ”

Jia Ke got up at this time, thanked Jia Mu and returned to Mrs. Wang to sit down, and Aunt Zhou, who was standing on the side, looked at her with concern on her face, afraid that he would be injured.

In fact, Jia Ke has been instilled by Lu Bu's courage in the past few days, and his body is stronger than ordinary people, and kowtowing just now did him no harm, but it was just to please Jia's mother.
