Chapter 44: Saving a Life

The verdant leaves of the plane tree in the courtyard began to turn golden yellow, and fell to the ground like a soft carpet, and the people in the house had not had time to clean it, Zhang Erzhen stepped on the golden soft carpet all over the ground, and heard Uncle Zhang's high-pitched voice shouting that it was a little guy who was lazy today, and he was caught and fined three months of money and then beaten. Zhang Erzhen smiled out of the shallow pear vortex, this is a vibrant life, she figured it out, reborn in the Ming Dynasty, she has a father who loves her and spoils her, has a good mother, has three cute and well-behaved younger brothers and sisters, although in ancient times, there is no intrigue, no wife and concubine stirring up the family home, and now there is a handsome and positive second-generation official fiancΓ©, as an ancient woman, there is really no better result than this.

When I returned to the Butterfly Courtyard, I was surprised that my aunt Jin Zhiniang was there. Yang had just served the flower tea and served a plate of glutinous rice and mung bean cake with bright green and soft children. Flower tea is made by herself in early summer when Zhang Erzhen took two little girls to pick the freshly spiked water hibiscus, Jin Zhiniang likes this faint tea fragrance very much, and last time she said that she wanted to ask her niece for something cheekily. Jin Zhiniang is a very beautiful ancient beauty, just like Lin Daiyu in Zhang Erzhen's eyes, a lot of time just nesting in the courtyard and chanting poems to enjoy the flowers and the moon, Zhang Erzhen guessed that this is why she would look at a good life regardless of the difference between the family.

If Jin Zhiniang wanted to chat with Zhang Erzhen, she would directly call the girl to come over, but every time she came by herself, the slender figure was weak and vulnerable, and Zhang Erzhen occasionally worried about whether her aunt's body was healthy. When Jin Zhiniang came, she was sitting and eating tea, it didn't matter if she was accompanied by Zhang Erzhen or not, she would occasionally say a few words, and she would leave in about two quarters of an hour. So as soon as she came, the nurse served the new tea, and stood on the side with her head hanging and waited for Jin Zhiniang to ask. Zhang Erzhen can't say that she is very close to this aunt, but she always feels that this aunt is very strange.

"Zhen Zhen, I heard that you took someone to pick a lot of white fruit tip catechu in March, why don't you bring it to your aunt to taste?" Jin Zhiniang's voice was thin and soft, she was more and more slender and slender in a pillow with a green threaded thick shirt, and her long fingers curled up the smoke blue thin mouth silver flower tea bowl that Yang had just put on and took a sip gently, and sighed: "The tea here is always different from the one bought outside, the fragrance is overflowing, and I like it tight." ”

In March, the ginkgo came out of the tip, Zhang Erzhen just picked a little less to make a new tea, originally filial piety to Zhang Luan, but Zhang Luan was not used to drinking, and the rest was not taken out after being sent once. He very cherished and dragged back the pure ferret-colored cup containing the white fruit tip catechin.

Zhang Erzhen looked at the back of Jin Zhiniang's departure, and always felt depressed and lonely, could it be because autumn had arrived, why couldn't she see any vitality in Jin Zhiniang.

At night, Zhang Erzhen was fascinated by the book "Haizhou Chronicles", Mingyue came in with pastries, and went to the table to build hot tea and said: "Girl, the nurse said that there are only these old little radish leaves left in our yard, and the girl can't drink anything else today, so let's use some." ”

Zhang Erzhen took a piece of lotus seed crushed jade cake and took a bite, and wondered: "Have you used up all those water hibiscus tea?"

"The slave maid heard that the golden lady sent someone to pick it up in the afternoon, and the girl was resting at that time, and the nurse didn't think much about it and gave it to her directly. ”

Zhang Erzhen took another sip of the extremely strong small radish leaves, frowned and put the tea bowl on the table, and his thoughts were a little chaotic for a while-

"It's broken!"

An extremely ridiculous thought flashed in Zhang Erzhen's mind, and hurriedly ordered Mingyue to find the nurse over, put on a cloak and shoes, and took the nurse to the courtyard where Jin Zhiniang lived. The nurse looked at Zhang Erzhen's serious face and didn't dare to slack off, at this time it was already on the moon's eyebrows, and the autumn wind carried a unique cold silence, Zhang Erzhen was excited, and her heart became heavier and heavier. Jin Zhiniang was only followed by a maid named Zisu, and when she heard a knock on the door, she answered the door, and when she saw that it was Zhang Erzhen, she said that the girl had fallen asleep.

Zhang Erzhen's tone was a little stiff and said: "During the day, my aunt looked for me to get something, and I forgot it, so I sent it by the way, you go and see if my aunt is asleep, I rarely come here, and I want to go in and sit." ”

Zi Su hurriedly invited Zhang Erzhen in, and went to the inner hall to find Jin Zhiniang, knocked on the door for a long time and did not move, doubtful, and replied to Zhang Erzhen: "Maybe the girl is tired and sleeping soundly at this time, so it is better to ......"

Zhang Erzhen frowned, her heart was not good, she took the nurse to the inner hall, and commanded the two adults to open the door quickly. Zhang Erzhen ordered down, and the nurse also guessed that something was wrong, and smashed the door with a solid wooden chair, and Zi Su stood aside with a pale face and didn't know what was going on. After the door was smashed open, Zhang Erzhen rushed in, and when she opened the curtain, she saw the bloodless Jin Zhiniang lying on the bed unconscious. Zi Su trembled, unable to say a word for a long time, Zhang Erzhen ordered: "Hurry up and invite Madame, and then go to the housekeeper Uncle Zhang to invite the white-bearded An Langzhong in Liuye Lane, go quickly! Auntie is poisoned." ”

Zhang Erzhen called the nurse to help turn Jin Zhiniang over, instructed the nurse to break Jin Zhiniang's mouth, took the small silver spoon resting on the wooden table and put it in, gently pressed it deep in the tongue, and heard Jin Zhiniang*, and spit out the soup and splashed it on Zhang Erzhen's skirt one after another. Where can Zhang Erzhen take care of it, her little hand patted Jin Zhiniang's back vigorously to prevent her from choking, and when she was about to vomit, she turned her over again.

That's all she will do, and the rest will wait for Lang Zhong......

Lang Zhong didn't come yet, Jin came first, his steps were very big, and he rushed in with an angry face, looking at Jin Zhi who had fainted on the bed, trembling angrily, and chanting "do evil", she also guessed that Jin Zhiniang was probably committing suicide. Zhang Erzhen sat on the low pier next to the bed, looking at Jin Zhiniang's pale face, her mood was really complicated, my aunt, why did you commit suicide and take medicine from me, you are harming others and yourself.

Bai Su Anlang hurriedly came in, and was urged by the Jin family to hurry up for treatment, this was the second time in the year that he was called to the prefect in the middle of the night. Zhang Erzhen looked at the old man with a shaking beard and reached out and turned Jin Zhiniang's eyelids, and carefully checked the pulse, his face gradually relaxed from the original solemnity, and lowered his head to sniff the vomit regardless of the dirt, and said with his eyebrows: "This girl has been poisoned by eating more ginkgo seeds, fortunately, it is no big deal to induce vomiting in time, and when the old man prescribes a dose of medicine to feed her to drink, she still needs to raise it for a few days." ”
