Xu's mother's situation is not very good.

She lives in the inner house all the year round, and she rarely even goes out as a guest, so you can imagine how her physical fitness is. Not to mention climbing the mountain to worship the Buddha, on weekdays, if you go around the Heyan Hall twice, Xu's mother will be tired and panting.

But today, Mother Xu went to the Dayuan Temple to offer incense.

As we all know, Dayuan Temple is a prestigious ancient temple in the capital, which is located on Dayuan Mountain. Although the name of Dayuan Mountain is "Dayuan", it seems that the mountain is very round, but in fact it is not. Dayuan Mountain is steep and dangerous, that is, there are more people who have gone up the mountain over the years, so a climbing ladder has been re-excavated, and it is much more convenient to go up the mountain.

But even if the road is easy, it doesn't take much effort to go up and down the mountain? Xu Mu has a little strength, and I don't know how many times Jin Niang will have to rest on the way up the mountain, but it is conceivable that today's trip will definitely be tired Xu Mu will not be able to slow down for ten days and half a month.

That's it, but on the way down the mountain, Pian Pian was bitten by a poisonous snake.

Mother Xu is both affected and frightened, and it is hell if the situation can be good.

Sure enough, after Gui Niangzi diagnosed her pulse, she said that she was "overworked" and "frightened", and asked Xu's mother to take care of her these days.

Mother Xu was poured soothing soup at this time and was already asleep. Jin Niang asked Xu Erlang, "Why don't I stay and guard my mother tonight?" ”

When the mother-in-law is sick, does she, a daughter-in-law, have to serve the sick?

Not to mention, this experience is the first time, and it is quite fresh.

Xu Erlang said, "No." There are so many maids and women guarding them, and my mother is not seriously ill and can't get up, so you need to serve her throat herself? ”

Hearing this, Mama Li nodded hurriedly, "Madam, go back quickly, the old lady has an old slave here." You can rest assured, the old slave will never blink at the old lady tonight, and ensure that the old lady will not make any mistakes. Madam, you still have to take care of the little master, and the girl wants you to appease, you have a lot of things, the old lady here the old slave is watching for you, if the old lady has any movements, the old slave will send someone to inform the lady as soon as possible. ”

After saying so, Jin Niang didn't stay. She took Xu Erlang's arm and came out, and the two went to visit Pianpin.

On the way, Xu Erlang said the matter of Pianpian in distress in a few words.

In fact, there is nothing to say, but when she went down the mountain, the little girl was restless, running back and forth to play, and as a result, she alarmed the poisonous snake in the dead grass.

But Jinniang still thinks it's incredible.

Let's not say that because the incense of the Dayuan Temple is prosperous, there are often believers who burn incense and worship the Buddha up and down the mountain, only say that the little monks in the temple or the believers of the Dayuan Temple will clean up the road to the mountain every day, not to mention the poisonous snake, I am afraid that there will not even be a cauliflower snake nearby.

Let's just say that it's winter now, it's cold, and the snakes are hibernating, so how can they still come out to bite?

Besides, snakes are also afraid of people, and they have already crawled away when they hear the noise of people, and where will they stay motionless, waiting for someone to run over and alarm them, so that they can catch someone and bite them.

Is this science? Unscientific! Does it make sense? Obviously unconscionable!!

didn't wait for Jin Niang to say this, so she heard Xu Erlang continue, "Fortunately, Yanting was nearby at the time, and I heard someone say that the young lady in our house was bitten by a poisonous snake, so I ran over to take a look." It is also thanks to the antidote pill that His Majesty rewarded him with that he can temporarily suppress the spread of snake venom. ”

Jin Niang couldn't help grabbing Xu Erlang's arm and asked nervously, "What about after that?" ”

"After that, thanks to Yan Ting, I invited Master Yuanming of Dayuan Temple to come over for diagnosis and treatment for the first time, and Pianpian's legs and feet were safe and sound."

After hearing these words, a layer of cold sweat broke out on her body, and she only wanted to miss a few words of "Amitabha" at this time. This time is really thrilling, if it weren't for the fact that Li Hehui was there, he happened to know some first-aid knowledge, and he happened to have an antidote pill on his body, and he was a member of the royal family, so that the monks of Dayuan Temple came to diagnose and treat it as soon as possible, otherwise, it would be impossible to say whether Pianpian's life could be saved.

She said, "I should thank them when I go back." I'll prepare a heavy gift for you tomorrow, can you come to thank you in person? ”

Xu Erlang originally wanted to say that according to his friendship with Li Hehui, there is no need to come to the door to thank him in a big way for this matter, otherwise he will see the outside. But then he thought of the words he heard from Mama Qin's mouth, and thought that there were some things that he had to see Li Hehui before he could verify them, so he also nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

Jin Niang asked again, "Why did your friend go to Dayuan Temple today?" "It's not Xiu Mu today, didn't I see Xu Erlang still going to work in the yamen?

Xu Erlang chuckled, "To see each other." ”

Yes?

Then that's understandable.

Now these families want to say goodbye to their children, and those who love girls must say hello to the man's family, and arrange for the man and woman to meet under certain circumstances, so as to avoid the situation of "blind marriage and dumb marriage" and "mutual resentment".

And this looks at it, it is also to avoid people, so it is either in the banquet, or the two families go to the temple to "worship the Buddha and incense". is so unaware that even if the family affair is not completed in the end, no one will gossip, and it will not affect the reputation of both men and women.

Jin Niang smiled again, "Which girl did Li and Hui look at this time?" His family affair is really embarrassing, you say that he can't even look down on Miss Seven, what kind of woman does he want to marry? ”

said that Li Hehui didn't look down on Miss Seven, that was obviously wronging him. Obviously, the two of them were not interested in each other, so they tacitly stopped the activity of more contact.

However, it is also true that Li Hehui is embarrassed by his family, after all, although he is the second son of the county prince's mansion, who let him have a mother who doesn't like him?

Which of the high-class portals in the capital is not well-informed? Who is willing to send the thousands of pampered girls in the family to his house to be angry with his mother-in-law?

Originally, his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were enemies, but he was not particularly loved by his biological mother, and the mother and son were like enemies, so wouldn't it be more difficult for the girl to marry in the past?

Therefore, for the sake of their own girls, Li Hehui, a promising son-in-law, is not in their consideration.

It's not that no one covets Li Hehui's marriage, most of those people want to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, and want to have a relationship with the Zhuangjun Palace, and then take advantage of the situation to soar. And most of such people have low official positions, and there are few people above the fifth grade official, so this is definitely not within the scope of Li Hehui's mate selection. Even if he was willing, the princess and the emperor would not be happy. After all, the royal face still has to be maintained, and the royal wife selection also has hard and hard conditions, but it is not just anyone who wants to marry can marry in.

Therefore, the people who can be seen by the Zhuangjun Wangfu are not happy to marry the girl. And the people who have the heart of the county prince's mansion, the princess of the old county is not happy. No, Li Hehui's marriage will not be put on hold.

Jin Niang is also embarrassed when she thinks of these, what a good noble son, but she was cheated by her mother.

As soon as she talked to Xu Erlang, she arrived at Pianpian's courtyard.

Pian Pian and Changle live in the same courtyard, the aunt and nephew are very good, and it is also for the sake of companionship, Changle gave up the yard arranged for her by Jin Niang, and has been living with Pian Pian.

When the two arrived, Pian Pian and Changle hadn't slept yet.

Changle was eating pastries, while Pian Pian sighed at her bulging ankles.

Changle saw the two of them come in, quickly swallowed the rose cake in his mouth, and saluted the two. Jin Niang asked her to sit down and continue eating, and said to her, "Didn't you eat dinner?" It's hard to digest these pastries, so let the small kitchen make you some bird's nest soup, or boil some porridge to drink, and don't like to delay the time to cook some noodles in stock, okay? ”

Changle shook his hand, "I'm already full, so I don't need anyone in the kitchen to open it anymore." Don't worry, Auntie, if I'm hungry at night, I'll call them to make something to eat. ”

Jin Niang didn't follow, "I'm afraid you haven't eaten well this day, where can you make a living?" It's not just you, I'm afraid Pian Pian hasn't eaten either. Wait, I'll ask someone to go to Cuibai Yuan to get some broth and cook noodles for you. ”

The small kitchen of Queen's Garden has at least two or three kinds of soup every day, whether it is soup or noodles, it is very nourishing. Jin Niang is also in case of an emergency like today, otherwise she would not have kept the fire in the kitchen every day.

After explaining to her subordinates to do something, Jin Niang looked at Pianpian.

The place where Pian Pian was bitten by the poisonous snake was at the ankle, although the wound had been treated, and the poisonous blood had been squeezed out, the ankle was still swollen high, and there was obviously still residual blood left in it.

However, the internal and external medicines have been used, and the ankles will disappear in a moment and a half, but it is not a big problem.

But just looking at it, the ankle seemed to be really serious. At least Pian Pian felt very, very serious, because her feet were swollen like pig's trotters, and she was ugly.

"It's just ugly, and I can bear it for a few hours, but the key is that I can't help but want to bite my snake. The snake was pitch black, so long, and it bit me and whipped me with its tail. Sister-in-law, you don't know, I was scared at the time!! What is this?,It's just a bite.,Left and right are bitten through socks.,I didn't feel much pain.,But that's not right.,It's not right that thing is scary.,It also spits at me.,Those two eyes are also cold.,I still think of my back with chills.。 ”

Pian Pian was still muttering, "It's a good thing that it bit my ankle, you said that if it bites my neck, then how ugly will I be?" No, I don't care about beauty and ugliness anymore, because I'm already dead!! ”

Jin Niang: "......" Seeing that you are so energetic now, I am relieved!

After visiting Pianpian and returning to Cuibai Garden, the maids had already prepared porridge and side dishes.

Jin Niang smelled the tempting aroma of rice, and her stomach growled uncontrollably.

She didn't feel hungry when she was busy, and now she felt that she was so hungry that she could swallow a cow.

Both of them were so hungry that they didn't have time to say anything, so they washed their hands and sat down to eat.

After the meal was finished, and they each took a bath and lay down on the bed, the bangs of the two watches rang.

Jin Niang was so sleepy that her eyelids seemed to be glued, she couldn't open her eyes, and she fell asleep in seconds while lying on the bed.

Xu Erlang was also tired, listening to the breathing sound on his side, he scooped Jin Niang into his arms and quickly fell asleep.

The next day was the day off, Xu Erlang had arrangements today, to go to Li Hehui to thank him, Jin Niang hadn't prepared a thank you gift, so she got up early to clean up.

Before Xu Erlang went out, the two also went to see the situation of Xu Mu and Pian Pian together. Mother Xu was still a little wilted, lying on the bed to recuperate, but her face was much better than yesterday. Jin Niang didn't disturb her old man's rest, asked An and asked Gui Niangzi to come to check the pulse again, and after confirming that the situation had improved, she left.

The place is lively, Changle and Xiaoyuer are there.

Xiao Yu'er pulled Pian Pian and asked her to play tangram with her, while Changle was reading a medical book. She also has a pen, ink, paper and inkstone next to her, and when she sees something she thinks about or doesn't understand, she writes it down on the paper. Or sort it out and record it later, as a reading experience, or take it to ask Gui Niangzi to let her solve her doubts.

Jin Niang was very happy to see them, stayed for a while and left.

didn't say how the people in the Xu Mansion were, but said that Xu Erlang went to the Zhuangjun Mansion to see Li Hehui.

Although Li Hehui is not treated by the princess of Zhuang County, he has the support of the old princess, and the emperor also takes more care of the entire nephew, so the people of the county prince's mansion also treat Li Hehui as the master very respectful, and they naturally have a warm and thoughtful attitude towards Xu Erlang, a friend of his son-in-law, especially a close minister of the Son of Heaven.

The servant took Xu Erlang's greeting and ran in, and Li Hehui personally greeted him later.

Seeing the heavy gift held by Mohe behind Xu Erlang, Li Hehui blamed, "The two of us are best friends, if you don't say anything, I will treat your sister as a sister." If she had an accident, I naturally had to do my best to help, which is all due to happen. Then again, even if it wasn't the four girls who suffered yesterday, but the women next to her, you should help me, otherwise wouldn't I have become a villain who can't be saved when I die? I did what I should have done, and I want you to thank you with a heavy gift, what has become of this? Could it be that I still lack these things from you? ”

Xu Erlang said, "The grace of saving lives is greater than the sky, I don't come here, and both Neiko and my mother are not at ease." It's not a valuable thing, you just accept it, and the right is my heart. ”

Li Hehui also knew Xu Erlang's temperament, and what he said, his refutation was ineffective, and in the end he had no choice but to let people put away the gifts.

Ethics This is the first time Xu Erlang has ascended the door of the palace of Zhuang County, and he should visit his elders no matter what. But the old princess of Zhuang County entered the palace at the invitation of the queen, and the king of Zhuang County had an errand to build houses outside the palace for several princes, and he was also very busy; It happened that the princess of Zhuangjun also went out as a guest today, so the elders in the family were not there, but this procedure was saved.

The two went directly to the flower hall in Li Hehui's courtyard to sit down, and after greetings, Xu Erlang asked about yesterday's incident.

He just opened his mouth to test a few words, and Li Hehui understood it in his heart, so he said, "Yesterday, my grandmother and I met the mother and young lady of Lord Tobe Shangshuwu in the Dayuan Temple. ”

Li Hehui mentioned the person of Hubu Shangshu, and Xu Erlang's heart was flooded with this person's life history.

Hubu Shangshu Wuxu is more than fifty years old this year, he is from a family, and his family business is huge. This person's position in various places is not mentioned, and his political achievements are also put aside. only said that Wu Xu is the most famous person in the court, not because he is sleek and flattering, but because he is "afraid of the inside". And the "inside" he is afraid of is not the original wife, but a concubine in his house.
