Chapter 40: Invitation
In the early morning of the next day, Yan Hao, who was still ill, did not go to Chunhui Hospital, and Mrs. Yan, who cared about her granddaughter, asked the county lord of Nanping, "How is Xiaoxiao?" ”
"I've taken two doses of medicine, and I've gotten better, and I've started eating yesterday." The county lord of Nanping said with a smile.
"That's good, you parents have to take good care of it, and you must not let Xiaoxiao suffer the cold anymore." Mrs. Yan died of her child, and she was very worried about her frail and sickly little granddaughter, afraid that she would lose the child if she was not careful.
"For the past two days, the fourth master and I have been staying by the bedside." The lord of Nanping County is facing the road.
"yes, okay." Old Madam Yan nodded, "I'll go with you to see Xiaoxiao later." "I haven't seen her for a few days, and she misses her little granddaughter.
After breakfast, Mrs. Yan sat in a soft sedan chair and visited her little granddaughter. Yan Hagi was drinking medicine, and when she saw Mrs. Yan coming in, she shouted in a coquettish voice, "Grandmother." ”
Old Madam Yan stepped forward, touched her little face, and said, "This is just getting fatter." This illness has lost weight again, and on his palm-sized face, he only sees a pair of big sparkling eyes.
"I will drink medicine on time to make my illness get better sooner, and I will eat more to grow meat back." Yan Hagi said obediently.
"Grandmother knows that Xiaoxiao is the most well-behaved." Old Madam Yan said with a smile.
Yan Hagi's illness lasted seven or eight days and recovered, but she still continued to be a housemaid and was strictly forbidden to go out by the lord of Nanping; Fortunately, Tang Zhi, Min Zichang and others will often come over to play with her, and Yan Hong will also bring Yan Tongfeng over, and the days will not be difficult.
In mid-November, it snowed in Beijing, and the weather became colder and colder, Yu Fangfei couldn't hold it anymore, and fell ill, like Yan Hao, who was almost trapped in the house in winter and couldn't go out, Han's was also sick.
Heavy snow is falling, and the capital is covered in silver inside and outside. Yan Tongliang deliberately went to the garden to pick a few wax plums, and asked the maid to send them to Chunhui Hall and the four-room main courtyard, and he personally sent flowers to Yan Hao, "Little sister, you can't go out, sixth brother, I will pick the flowers and send them to you to give you a reward, is the sixth brother the best?" ”
"Sixth brother is the best." Yan Hagi said with a smile.
To please his sister, Yan Tongliang opened his mouth happily and smirked, and talked with his sister for a while, and the maidservant came over to remind him, "Sixth young master, it's time to go back to the room and write big characters." ”
"Little sister, the sixth brother will come to see you tomorrow." Although Yan Tongliang still doesn't like to read, after talking to Yan Tongzhu that day, he has changed.
"Sixth brother walk slowly, the snow road is slippery, you have to walk well." Yan Hagi admonished.
"It's cold outside, don't come out." Yan Tongliang walked out on the side.
Yan Hagi blinked, she didn't seem to be sitting still.
Not long after Yan Tongliang left, the county lord of Heyi came, and she came to visit the patient with fresh pastries and out-of-season melons from the hot spring village.
"Xiaoxiao, you taste it, this melon is sweet." The county lord of Heyi gnawed melons and vigorously recommended them to Yan Hao.
"I don't like to eat this melon." Yan Hao is not a foodie like Lord Heyi and Tang Zhi who eats everything, she is actually still a picky eater, but her pickiness is not so obvious.
The county lord of Heyi paused, "If you don't eat melons, then eat pastries." ”
"You've finished eating the pastry." Yan Hagi pouted at the empty plate, and someone said that he had brought something for her to eat, but in fact someone ate more.
Lord Heyi smiled embarrassedly, "It's so delicious, I couldn't hold back for a while." ”
Yan Hagi silently poured a cup of jujube tea for himself with a pot, held it in his hand, and took a sip.
"Oh, by the way, I'm mainly here to tell you today, my imperial grandmother gave me a small hot spring village, which has three springs, and I want you to go to the hot spring with me." The county lord of Heyi invited her.
"Okay." Yan Hagi felt that her body was better than last year, and she should be able to go out.
"Then I will go on my birthday, December 20th." The county lord of Heyi immediately finalized the time.
"It's not good, I can't play for two days, and I'm going to come back to prepare for the New Year." Yan Hagi rejected her proposal.
"Which day are you going?" Lord Heyi asked.
Yan Hagi thought for a while and said, "Go on the 16th and return on the 22nd, we can play on the Zhuangzi for six or seven days." It will take her parents a few days to convince her that Yan Rong should be about to give birth, and she has to see her eldest nephew before she can go out.
"Okay, okay, I'll go back and let people clean up in Zhuangzi, and I'll pick you up on the 16th." The county lord of Heyi stuffed the last mouthful of melon into his mouth, jumped off the Luohan bed, put on his shoes, and walked out anxiously.
Two days later, on the seventh day of the twelfth month, Mrs. Yan said to Mrs. Yan: "Mother, the New Year's gift to Jiangning has been prepared, and I will send someone to send it over today." ”
Mrs. Yan smiled: "You bothered, wait for your second brother and the second family to return to Beijing, and let them thank you well." ”
"That's as it should be, thank you." Mrs. Yan smiled.
Mrs. Yan San pouted on the side, this Zhou family will pretend to be a good person, take the things in the public to do favors, and pretend to be generous.
Old Mrs. Yan glanced at Mrs. Yan San, her brows furrowed slightly, this Jiang family, when she was young, looked okay, but as she got older, she became more and more unbearable, she shouldn't have come back by the third child marrying this unvirtuous person. It's a New Year's holiday, and Mrs. Yan doesn't want to affect her mood because of Mrs. Yan's third, so she doesn't bother to beat her, so she simply ignores her and asks Mrs. Yan, "Rong'er's month is almost the same, right?" ”
"It's been more than nine months, and I should be giving birth in a few days." Mrs. Yan has been concerned, and glanced at Wang's stomach secretly, wondering when her daughter-in-law will be able to add a grandson to her?
"Is the spawn bag ready?" Mrs. Yan then asked, according to the custom in Beijing, about a month before a pregnant woman gives birth, her mother's family will send a birth bag.
"When you're ready, Ming'er will let the daughter-in-law of the same book send it over." Mrs. Yan smiled.
"yes, okay." Mrs. Yan smiled, in fact, Mrs. Yan has always been thoughtful, not to mention that it is still her biological daughter, Mrs. Yan wants to express her concern for her granddaughter as a grandmother, she is not an eccentric old fool. "Old family, Ming'er is Laba, you have a lot of things, don't go to get porridge, just let the old five family go, do you think it's good?"
Mrs. Yan also saw Mrs. Yan pouting before, and knew that the old lady was helping her to get angry, so she deliberately raised Mrs. Yan to suppress Mrs. Yan, and said with a smile: "Then there are five brothers and sisters of Lao." ”
Mrs. Yan Wu hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "It is my honor to be able to do it for my sister-in-law, thank you mother and sister-in-law for giving me this opportunity." ”
Mrs. Yan San pursed her lips, the Zhou family didn't have time to go, it should be her turn, but the old lady crossed her and the fourth family, and let the fifth family go, which was really annoying. But angry is angry, the old lady is serious, and Mrs. Yan San does not dare to speak out against it.
The county lord of Nanping has never cared about these little things, anyone can go to fetch porridge, she just wants to concentrate on taking care of her daughter.
