Half a month ago, Zhengding's Lin Medical Center wrote a letter to Dr. Qin, and Dr. Qin got the letter and returned to Zhengding.

So this time Feng Lao'an was ill urgently, Qi took the initiative and invited Dr. Zhang from Huimin Pharmacy to come and see the disease, an hour ago, Dr. Zhang had already cured Feng Lao'an's illness, and prescribed a prescription after pricking the needle, and the maids took the prescription to decoction. Now Qi Shi took a copy of the prescription in his hand and looked at it carefully.

Seeing Qi leaning crookedly on the golden silk soft pillow behind him, the little maid waiting in the room took a wooden beauty hammer and was hammering Qi's legs.

Qi Shi was still looking at the newly prescribed prescription in her hand, she had seen the prescription prescribed by Dr. Qin to Feng Lao'anren, which was a little different from the one prescribed by Dr. Zhang in front of her.

However, she didn't call Dr. Zhang to come and ask, if she called Dr. Zhang to come over and ask about the prescription, wouldn't she spread the matter? When the time comes, Feng Lao'an will be investigated, but I am afraid that she has a thousand mouths, and it will not be clear to explain.

Qi Shi took a cursory look at the prescription in his hand again, and then handed the prescription to the maid who was beating her legs.

"Put this prescription away carefully, and if the old lady wants to see it, you will find it and show it to her."

The maid who beat her legs took the prescription handed by Qi, folded it in two, and put it in a black wooden box that had been placed above the high table, and then placed the box in a hidden place in the house.

The room under the eye circle was originally the study used by Mrs. Feng, but Mrs. Feng has been sick, and this room has been abandoned for many days. But fortunately, Chunyan ordered the girl to clean up every day, and there was not so much dust in this house.

After seeing the maid put away the prescription, Qi asked.

"After drinking the medicine from the maid, has the old lady woken up? Who's in the house now?"

Qi asked, and the leg-beating maid didn't dare to deceive, so he told her everything he knew.

"Madam, the old lady came over with Aunt Hong to take a look, the old lady was still awake at that time, and the old lady and the old man talked for a while. After the old man left, the old lady drank the decoction handed by the maid and fell asleep again. ”

"What did the old man and the old lady say, did you hear me?" Qi Shi looked at the girl who was talking in front of him and asked unhurriedly.

"Madam, at that time, the old lady shouted that Sister Chunyan had retired from the maid who was waiting in the house, and I was driven out, and when the old lady and the old man were talking, I didn't hear it. Sister Chunyan was still watching us little maids outside the door, so we didn't dare to ask the sister who was waiting in the old lady's house. ”

The maid was afraid of the Qi clan in her heart, so when she spoke, her face was a little panicked.

"Do you know how long the old man has been talking to the old lady in the house? and the red aunt, since she accompanied the old man, the old lady must have seen her too. Did the old lady reprimand that Aunt Hong in front of the master?"

The Qi clan was eager to know if Old Madam Feng had reprimanded Aunt Hong in front of Gu Lihua.

Since Aunt Hong stunned Old Madam Feng, even if Gu Lihua still wanted to protect Aunt Hong, in front of Old Madam Feng, she still had to make face and reprimand Aunt Hong.

Seeing that Qi asked about this, the maid was worried that she had said the wrong thing, and after thinking about it again, she said.

"Madam, when the old man and the old lady were talking, Miss Chunyan personally invited Aunt Hong out. Later, when the maid in the pantry handed over the refreshments, Aunt Hong took the refreshments in the maid's hand and entered the house again.

The slave listened to the movement in the house, and the old lady didn't seem to reprimand Aunt Hong in front of the master, but when Aunt Hong came out, her face was full of displeasure. ”

Seeing that the maid had said so much, Qi Shi rewarded two taels of silver, and sent the maid who beat her legs away.

The maid just said that when Aunt Hong came out, her face was full of displeasure, which didn't mean that Old Madam Feng still reprimanded Aunt Hong a few words.

Aunt Hong's house has been in the mansion these days, relying on Gu Lihua's favor, and relying on herself to take charge of the housekeeper's power, she has been showing off her power in the mansion all day long, stepping on her head several times, trying to drive her.

If it weren't for the fact that she was in charge of the housekeeper's power, the Qi family would have torn her face. What kind of identity is her Aunt Hong, she even dares to learn from Old Madam Feng to drive her to do this and that.

If one day, Aunt Hong's house falls into her hands, she will not let her go easily!

After the Qi family made up their minds, there was a maid preaching outside, saying that the maid Chunyan who was being served by Mrs. Feng had arrived, and she had something important to discuss with the Qi family.

Qi was feeling strange in his heart, and saw that Chunyan pushed open the door and walked into the house.

Chunyan wore a light green armor today, put on a silver-gray coat on the outside, and bowed to the Qi family according to the rules, and then said.

"Mrs. Qi, I heard that you called the maid to invite me over, I don't know why? The old lady has woken up, and I have to hurry back to serve her old man, if Mrs. Qi has anything to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it! ”

Chunyan is serving by Feng Lao'an's side, and she can be regarded as half a master in the second room. Looking at Chunyan's dress today, compared with those of them who are the masters, they are not much inferior.

However, the Qi family called Chunyan over today, not to care about this, the reason why she asked the maid to invite Chunyan over was actually to ask Feng Lao'an's physical condition.

Most of the prescriptions prescribed by Dr. Qin to Feng Lao'an were some mild tonic medicines; But Dr. Zhang, who she invited from Huimin Pharmacy, had a few old ginseng plants on the first prescription, as well as other miscellaneous and miscellaneous medicines.

The previous ones were all mild tonics. Isn't it strange that I drank some medicine that made a big deal for big injuries this time?

Qi felt strange in her heart, but she didn't dare to tell Chunyan directly, she looked at the new prescription that Dr. Zhang gave to Mrs. Feng.

She knew that these prescriptions of Old Madam Feng had always been properly kept by Chunyan, and the prescription she had seen before was just copied by someone, and the real original was still in the medicine box in Old Madam Feng's house.

After asking the maid to bring the embroidery stool to sit down for Chunyan, Qi Shi spoke: "Chunyan, I called the maid to invite you over, just to ask you, how is the old lady's health?" What did Dr. Zhang say again?

Brother Hu has just changed to a nurse these days, and he is a little uncomfortable, so I have been with Brother Hu in the house these days, and I have not served by my aunt's side, and I also asked Miss Chunyan to explain these things to my aunt on my behalf when she goes back. ”

Qi Shi said, noisy to the maid who was waiting beside him made a look, and after the maid got Qi's signal, she hurriedly opened the wooden box placed above the high table, took out the two hundred taels of silver tickets placed in it, and handed it to Qi.

Taking the silver ticket handed by the maid, Qi stood up from the soft couch and stuffed the silver ticket into the hand of Chunyan, who was sitting in front of him.

"Miss Chunyan, I'm really bothering you these days. You deserve these silver tickets. ”

Before Chunyan could react, Qi Shi stuffed the silver ticket into her hand.

"Mrs. Qi, what do you mean by this? You gave the slave and maid two hundred taels of silver, do you want to know anything from the slave and maid? ”

"Chunyan, what are you talking about? What do I want to know from you, what should I say when you take these two hundred taels of silver tickets? What shouldn't be said? I know in my own heart that you must have been by my aunt's side for many years, so I should know it, right?"

Qi's words were faint, and it made people shudder a little. The other little maids in the room all lowered their heads at once, only Chunyan was still drinking the tea cup in her hand, looking at the Qi family in front of her.

"Mrs. Qi will give two hundred taels? Want to know what you want to know? Isn't that too little?

The slave maid has been serving by the old lady's side for many years, how can I say that I can be regarded as half a master in this house, in previous years, when the New Year was celebrated, those stewards at the bottom honored me, but Mrs. Qi gave dozens of times these silver tickets today! ”

Chunyan knew that as long as she didn't say it, the silver taels she could take away from the Qi clan would be more than the two hundred taels in front of her.

Qi Shi replied with a faint smile coldly, and then said.

"Miss Chunyan, how do you know what I want to know? If you can tell me what I want to know, the silver taels I can give you will not be the two hundred taels of silver. ”

Listening to Qi Shi say this, Chunyan was not intimidated by her, after so many years of ups and downs in the second room of the Gu family, just a girl like Qi Shi could scare her?

After settling down, Chunyan replied word by word: "What Mrs. Qi wants to know is nothing more than what illness the old lady has?" Otherwise, Mrs. Qi called the maid who was waiting beside her, and opened the maid who decocted the medicine in the pantry, and went to copy the prescription for what to do?

Mrs. Qi doesn't say that she has a lot of research on medicine! In this case, Mrs. Qi is okay to coax and coax those stinky girls, but the slaves are not those girls. ”

When Qi and Chunyan were talking, Qi's maid jackdaw, who was serving him, had already withdrawn all the maids and women who were waiting in the house, leaving Chunyan and Qi in the house.

"Miss Chunyan is a smart girl, so naturally I won't use those words to prevaricate the girl. The girl knew that I wanted to know how my aunt's illness was, and when Dr. Qin was still in the house, she prescribed some mild tonic medicine to my aunt, but my aunt was only sick once, why did she change from a tonic medicine to a big tonic?

There are also a few old ginseng strains in the medicine, if it weren't for the weakness of the body to the bones, how could you take such a big tonic as old ginseng?"

Qi asked very quickly, as if he wanted Chunyan to explain all the puzzles in his heart.

"Originally, the old lady told the slave maid that Mrs. Qi was suspicious and thoughtful, but she didn't expect the old lady to guess correctly. The old lady is not in good health, and she needs to take these great tonics. As soon as Chunyan finished speaking, she glanced at Qi Shi on the side, and then continued.

"The old lady has a very serious thirst-quenching disease, and if she is not careful, her life will be lost. Originally, the old lady used Dr. Qin's gentle tonic method, and if she raised it slowly, she would always recover. Since Dr. Qin left, the old lady's health is not very good, two days ago Aunt Hong made a fuss, and fainted that night. ”

"No wonder when I went to the back room that night to say goodbye to my aunt, you stopped me outside. It turned out that my aunt had fainted in the house. ”

Hearing Chunyan say this, she remembered this matter. Two days ago, when she made a snack and was about to bring it to Mrs. Feng to taste, Chunyan said that Feng Lao'an had stopped and stopped her outside.

"Chunyan, does anyone know about my aunt's illness?" Seeing that Chunyan didn't speak, Qi asked again.

"Mrs. Qi, when the old lady was sick, the three girls were always waiting by the old lady's side. The slave maid was not sure what the third girl knew, but the slave maid dared to conclude that the third girl must have known about the old lady's thirst. But the third girl is tight-lipped and won't publicize it in the future. ”

When she said this, Chunyan suddenly stopped.

glanced at the Qi family with a faint smile on his face, and said, "Mrs. Qi, since you know what you want to know, then this silver, Mrs. Qi should not give it to the slave?"

The Qi clan knew that this Chunyan still had silver in her heart. But since she can be bought with silver, she doesn't have to worry about not being able to do anything in the future. After making up his mind in his heart, Qi instructed the maid to take out another five hundred taels of silver tickets and hand it to Na Chunyan.

"Miss Chunyan, you said earlier that after the old lady woke up, the old lady and Aunt Hong took a look. When Aunt Hong came out, her face was full of displeasure, what happened in the house that day, and asked Miss Chunyan to explain it clearly. ”

As long as she knows what happened in Old Madam Feng's house that day, she can rely on this to bring down Aunt Hong in one fell swoop, and then the entire second room of the Gu family will be her world.

When Chunyan heard this, she was a little hesitant. She was also serving in the house that day, and Feng Lao'an had already instructed her not to spread the news about what happened in the house that day.

If she had said those things to the Qi clan now, wouldn't she have disobeyed Feng Lao'an's orders?

If it weren't for the protection of Feng Lao'an's people over the years, how could she be in the second room of the Gu family, and if she wanted the rain to get the rain, thinking of this, Chunyan didn't continue.

"Mrs. Qi, the old lady has already explained the matter you just asked, and the slave has nothing to say! If Mrs. Qi still wants to be on the side, please ask Mrs. Qi to talk about it. ”

Seeing that Chunhan didn't reply to her, the Qi family knew that in the house that day, her aunt must have had something to do with Gu Lihua, otherwise she wouldn't have specifically instructed Chunyan not to spread the word.

"Miss Chunyan, I still advise you, since you have accepted my money, you should do something for me. What happened in the house that day, please tell me what happened in the house. ”

As soon as Qi's voice fell, the maid who was already interested outside the house guarded the door of the house, in order to prevent Chunyan from taking the opportunity to go out.

Seeing the figure outside guarding the door, Chunyan's face was still faint, "Mrs. Qi, are you threatening me?" Since the old lady specially instructed me not to publicize the events of that day, the slave and maid would not say it.

Mrs. Qi trapped me in this house like this, aren't you afraid that the old lady will wake up and call the maid to come to me? ”

"If the old lady personally calls someone to come to find Miss Chunyan, it will not be too late for me to hand over Miss Chunyan. It's just that this time, Miss Chunyan is still in this house, let's stay for a while! As soon as Qi's words fell, he got down from the soft couch, put on his shoes by the maid, and went out of the house.

Seeing Qi Shi go out of the house, Chunyan also wanted to go out with her, but unfortunately she was stopped in the house by the little maid guarding outside the house.

"Miss Chunyan, Mrs. Qi said that she wanted to keep you for a while, so you can stay here for a while! We are all maids, and the slave and maid also ask Mrs. Qi not to embarrass us. The maids who were guarding outside replied.

Qi came out of the back room, and did not rush to the courtyard of Gu Lihua and Aunt Hong, but instructed the maid to invite Dr. Zhang from Huimin Pharmacy, who was treating Old Madam Feng, and Qi wanted to see him in the front hall and ask him a few words.

Qi sat in the front hall, the maids waiting in the front hall had already put the tea and snacks on the table, and when they heard that Qi was going to see Dr. Zhang here, those maids retreated in interest and did not continue to stay in the front hall to serve.

A moment later, the maid who Qi had ordered to invite Dr. Zhang over had already returned.

Dr. Zhang's hair and beard were already gray, but he was not blind or deaf, and respectfully bowed to Qi's blessing before he said: "I don't know if Mrs. Qi ordered the maid to invite Lao Yu over, did she want to ask Lao Yu something?" ”

"Doctor Zhang, I know that you are one of the doctors in Huimin Pharmacy, with superb medical skills, and even those dignitaries in Chengjiang Mansion, you have also seen them sick. Yesterday you gave our old lady a medical treatment, what happened to our old lady's illness?

The concubine called someone to invite Dr. Zhang over today, just to ask clearly. Qi Shi saw that the doctor Zhang was old, so he didn't say anything that was too stimulating, and asked the doctor in a soft whisper.

The doctor stroked his gray beard and took a closer look at the person sitting across from him.

"Madame isn't the eldest lady, is she? It's about the old lady's condition, and these things should be asked by the eldest lady to ask the old lady in person! If someone else comes to ask, the old man will not answer. ”
