Ning Zhao walked up to Aunt Dou, held her other arm, and said with a smile: "Yes, don't be so restrained in the future, my mother and I have already married, and we are a family." ”

Aunt Dou's eyes were slightly hot, and she smiled at the two, "Okay, okay." ”

The three of them went back to the courtyard together, and Qing Cicada had already followed Ning Zhao's instructions to prepare the ingredients in the small kitchen, as well as the 'Gudong Pot' that Ning Zhao had brought back.

It was the first time Qing Cicada had seen this thing, and he looked around for a long time, curious.

"Miss, is that just putting it in here to cook?" The coodong pot has been served, and it is still like in Daxing, with red soup and clear soup at the same time.

Ning Zhao waited for the soup to boil, picked up the ingredients and boiled them, and replied, "Yes, it's very simple and delicious." ”

Qing Cicada stared at the pot, the fragrance of the soup pot came out, she swallowed her saliva greedily, and still asked: "It smells very good, but I don't know how it tastes." ”

"You'll know after you taste it." Ning Zhao smiled, picked up a fish and boiled it into the clear soup pot.

Looking at Aunt Dou, who was stupid, Ning Zhao smiled and said, "My mother loves to eat fish, boiled in clear soup, and this soup can be drunk for a while." ”

Aunt Dou's mind was all on the pot, and when she heard the words, she nodded, and sat and waited to eat.

Jin Yuan knew that they hadn't eaten it, so he took the initiative to help put onions and garlic in their bowls, which he tasted heavy, and added a little salt to it.

When the food was cooked, the Gudong pot made a 'coo-dong' sound, and the cicada suddenly realized and said, "It turns out that the name Gudong pot came from this way." ”

The sky was dark, the courtyard was lit with candles, and the family sat in the courtyard, eating the pot while admiring the moon, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

"I thought I'd let my grandmother try it together." Ning Zhao was worried about Mrs. Ning in his heart, and couldn't help but feel sad.

Jin Yuan knew that Ning Lao Taijun was seriously ill, and he also knew that in Ning Mansion, except for Aunt Dou, it was Ning Lao Taijun who was the best for Ning Zhao, and at this moment, seeing Ning Zhao's gloomy expression, comforted: "Old Taijun is old, birth, old age, sickness and death are common things, Madame should look away." ”

"Now that the old lady is still here, you can come back to see her from time to time in the future, and you can also talk to her." Jin Yuan said.

Ning Zhao looked at Jin Yuan, very moved by his warm words, and nodded: "Grandmother is in a very bad mood now, and I don't know if I will wake up again when I fall asleep." ”

"I've been a doctor for so long, and there are still things I can't do." Ning Zhao lowered his eyes.

"The world is impermanent." Jin Yuan stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around her shoulders and said softly, "Let it be." ”

On this day, they returned to Shangshu Mansion very late, before parting, Jin Yuan invited Aunt Dou to go to the mansion to play at any time in her free time, after this night, Aunt Dou also lost her previous restraint, and agreed with a smile.

By the time the two of them returned to Shangshu Mansion, Ning Zhao was already tired.

Suddenly hearing about Ning Laotaijun's condition, Ning Zhao was too sad, and after teasing him for a while, Ning Zhao rested early.

In the next few days, Ning Zhao first went to the medical hall every day to have a look, and now the medical hall can operate even if he and Meng Sui are not there, Ning Zhao finished reading the account book of the previous day, and went back to Ning Mansion directly.

Ning Lao Taijun's body is not as good as day by day, if it weren't for the medicine prescribed by Meng Sui, it would be impossible to say when it would be gone. The more this is the case, the longer Ning Zhao will accompany Ning Lao Taijun.

Ning Jian took over the affairs of Ning Mansion, and he would also take a look at the mansion every day, anyway, it was okay to stay in the East Palace all day, so Ning Jian was also enriched.

"Fifty taels of silver a month in the western courtyard." Ning Jian frowned and looked at the account book, pointed to the monthly rules of the West Courtyard, looked at the steward, and asked, "How can there be so many?" In the past, when my mother was still around, the monthly allowance for me was only thirty taels a month. ”

Aunt Dou is just a concubine, why is the monthly case higher than her, a young lady?

Ning Jian was very displeased, and his gaze at the steward was not good.

The steward's head was sweaty, wiped it against Ning Lian's gaze, nodded and replied: "This is all what the old lady ordered before." ”

Chen is gone, there is only one Aunt Dou left in the house, there is no brother in the house, only two young ladies, it stands to reason that the Chen family is gone, either put Aunt Dou right, or let Ning Hong marry another lady.

However, in the face of the imperial doctor, Ning Hong did not dare to marry another person during the Chen family's mourning period, and because Aunt Dou was born and had a low status, Ning Hong had lost his affection for her over the years, and Ning Hong was unwilling to correct her.

Mrs. Ning knew very well in her heart, knowing that Aunt Dou had been wronged over the years, and now there was no one in the house, so Mrs. Ning saw Ning Zhao's face, so she allocated it to Aunt Dou according to the share of Mrs. Zhengmu.

"How can it be!" Ning Jian was furious when he heard this, stood up a few times, and said: "Wouldn't it be a joke for a concubine to take the monthly example of the lady of the main room, and spread it." ”

"From today." Ning Jian flicked his sleeves, as if he was a housewife, and said: "Aunt Dou's monthly rules and material needs are all arranged according to the concubine's room. ”

"Yes, yes, yes! The slave got it. "The steward hastened.

Ning Jian glanced at the steward, was very satisfied with his attitude, and was in a better mood, sat back down on the desk, and continued to look at the account book.

"How's Grandmother doing today?" Ning Zhao returned from the Ning Mansion, and Jin Yuan had just returned to the Mansion and asked with concern.

Ning Zhao shook his head and sighed: "I woke up twice yesterday, and I have been asleep today, and I haven't woken up once." ”

Jin Yuan was also silent, and after a while, she gently hugged Ning Zhao, patted her back, and did not speak.

Saying anything is redundant, saying nothing can change the fact that Mrs. Ning's time is running out, and a simple hug is the best comfort for Ning Zhao at this moment.

"Alright, I'm fine." After a while, Ning Zhao gently pulled up a smile, patted Jin Yuan's arm, and said, "I've seen it in the past few days, it's okay." ”

Ning Zhao is not the kind of person who is indecisive, she will not let herself be immersed in sadness for a long time, there is still a long road ahead, there are still many things waiting for her to do, she should not and will not use sadness as an excuse to waste time.

"I heard that Yaohua escaped from prison today." Jin Yuan suddenly opened his mouth.

Ning Zhao was stunned for a moment and asked, "Prison break?" ”

"Haha......" Jin Yuan laughed loudly, pointed to Xiaohua who was locked in the cat house not far away, and said: "The little guy ran out while the maid was feeding it, and they said that this is called 'prison escape'." ”

Ning Zhao was stunned, then laughed, shook his head and said, "This description is really appropriate, Yaohua has tossed them a lot this afternoon." ”

"Not really." Jin Yuan took Ning Zhao's hand, and the two walked to the cat house, Jin Yuan bent down and stretched out his fingers, and Yaohua pasted it over, rubbing Jin Yuan's fingers with his little head, his eyes squinted slightly, and he enjoyed it very much.

"Climbing the wall and going up the house can break the maids." Jin Yuan's fingers scratched, and Yaohua meowed even more comfortably.

Listening to her grandmother's voice, Ning Zhao's heart melted.

"When it's bigger, you won't have to keep it in." Ning Zhao hugged Yaohua out, and Yaohua rubbed it in her arms flatteringly, stretched out her little tongue and licked the back of Ning Zhao's hand.
