Chapter 42: The Merchant's Girl
Qin Miaoyan and Poria watched Zhou Jin jump away together as if hiding from a monster.
"Is it really poison?" Poria curiously played with the small medicine pot in her hand.
In her heart, the girl will always be kind and gentle.
Qin Miaoyan carefully took back the medicine pot, "Naturally it's true, when did I lie to you?" ”
"Is that a way to give it to whoever doesn't like it?" Poria continued to ask.
Qin Miaoyan laughed and rewarded her with a burst of chestnut, "Who will dare to offend you in the future!" ”
The two laughed and got into the carriage.
A few days after returning to Xiao's Mansion, the news that Qin Miaoyan personally came to the door that day to diagnose Mrs. He's pulse and see a doctor really spread.
Isn't this a face-saving thing?
Originally, it was a female doctor who specialized in conditioning Mrs. Xiao's body, but now she just came to show Mrs. He, it seems that Miss He made a big fuss about the chrysanthemum banquet that day, Mrs. Xiao not only didn't mind, but also asked the female doctor to come to the door to express her friendliness!
Who knew that a few days later, the He family came to deliver the news again, saying that they invited Qin Miaoyan to come to the door for a gathering.
It's not Mrs. He, she is too lazy to ask again, but it was the girl next to Mrs. He who came to deliver the post.
Mrs. Xiao was angry and funny when she found out about this, and she said to Qin Miaoyan: "You don't have to worry about this and that, our Xiao family will not be afraid of them and the He family, if you don't want to push it." ”
"Recently, the eldest prince's health has been getting better and better, and he is being taken care of by a senior doctor," Qin Miaoyan said with a smile: "I'm just idle, it's okay to go and take a look." ”
Mrs. Xiao thought about it, according to what she had been observing, Qin Miaoyan didn't seem to be a master who was afraid of power, so she didn't say much, meaning to let her go.
The next day, Qin Miaoyan came to visit Mrs. He with gifts.
Compared with her sister-in-law's style of acting, Second Lady He was obviously much softer, and she quietly gave the wind to Mrs. He before she got Qin Miaoyan's letter.
Miss Qin has also come to see me! Look, you're not the only one with that big face!
Mrs. He was angry that she didn't eat that night, and she heard that her lord had pampered a singer of unknown origin, and she didn't get out of bed the next day.
Second Mrs. He is even happier, she has always listened to Mrs. He's family affairs as a joke, and she is smiling all day long.
When I got up in the morning, I instructed the little girls to wash the courtyard and prepare fruit cakes, striving to cause a great difference in treatment.
Of course, Qin Miaoyan was not hesitant to praise and was flattered, and the two exchanged pleasantries for a while just at the door.
Second Mrs. He was proud, and then entered the room with the guests.
Between pushing the cup and changing the lamp, when Mrs. He was talking, she couldn't help but be very interested in the girl in front of her.
It doesn't look very old, but she is extremely calm and knowledgeable, and she has been talking for so long, but there is no sentence that she can't answer!
"Alas! Wonderful words," Second Mrs. He was going to dig out her heart at this time, and directly evoked Qin Miaoyan's name, "You said that I am not young this year, I wonder if there is a chance to have another one?" ”
Qin Miaoyan looked at her and smiled, noncommittal.
Second Mrs. He is well-maintained, and she looks like she is in her early thirties, but she is actually about to run for four.
She has a son and a daughter under her knees, and now her son is doing business abroad, and her daughter Miss He Er is still in the boudoir, and she has reached the age of getting married.
I heard that Qin Miaoyan had seen the body of the fifth lady of the Xiao family's fifth room, so I thought about it.
Mrs. Xiao has not been pregnant for many years, which is not uncommon in Lanling, that is, she herself did not have a deep relationship with her children when she was young.
"I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it," she sighed: "I'm afraid that Erniang will get married, and I will be alone at home, how lonely, if I can still add a child to the master, regardless of men and women, I will be happy!" ”
"Second Madam is just lifting me," Qin Miaoyan said with some embarrassment: "I did show Mrs. Xiao Fifth a few days ago, but it was just ...... It's just that I'm still young, and these things are not easy to handle. ”
Second Mrs. He immediately shook Qin Miaoyan's hand, pinched it in her palm, and smiled gently.
"Good boy, in fact, I just asked casually, I won't force you," she waved her hand and said: "It's just that your medical skills are even good for Mrs. Xiao, and I can't trust others, so I hit your idea, you don't have to take it to heart, it's Mrs. Xiao's prescription, just give me the same food!" ”
This really lifted her to a high place, and it was so gentle and drizzly, it was difficult for Qin Miaoyan not to refuse.
"Madam, it's not like you can mix all kinds of medicine," Qin Miaoyan said softly: "Miaoyan will take your pulse now, and prescribe a prescription that suits you, you don't dislike it!" ”。
After seeing off the guests, Second Mrs. He hummed a little song and leaned leisurely on the Luohan bed.
Suddenly, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl walked in at the door, with several golden hairpins on her hairpin, and she was ringing in the middle of her actions, and the second lady He heard it, but she opened her eyes and opened her mouth to scold: "You stinky girl, you wear it out again to show off, who to show it!" ”
Miss He Er snorted very lightly, sat on the side and ate the orange indifferently: "I can't wear it if no one looks at me?" It's not for A-Niang to see! ”
"You have learned to be stubborn," Second Mrs. He patted her daughter and glared, "Do you know what Tibetan wealth is?" Be careful which day it will be stolen by the black-hearted one! ”
Miss He Er muttered: "Anyway, my father and uncle are both officials, who dares to ...... Hey, I won't talk about Auntie! ”
"You useless thing, you know how to tinker with these things all day long, you see that your eldest sister has met with Xiao Dagongzi! What about you?! ”
"Yes, A-Niang," Miss He Er pouted: "The eldest sister has already met with the eldest son of Xiao, and the eldest lady of Xiao is also very satisfied with the eldest sister!" ”
"Hanging!" Second Mrs. He snorted coldly: "Just like your eldest sister, she is pampered and likes to show her head, and it is strange that Mrs. Xiao has an unsand temperament in her eyes, she will like her!" ”
"If you can marry into the Xiao family and become the eldest daughter-in-law, what if your uncle is Zhizhou? In the future, your father will have a chance to be promoted! A-Niang doesn't have to live a careful life, just rely on her aunt......" Seeing that her daughter didn't speak, Second Mrs. He continued to look forward to it.
Miss He Er racked her brains to refute again: "Then, what kind of Qin girl, I heard that Mrs. Xiao also likes her very much, in case she intends to ......"
"Then it's even more impossible," Second Lady He took a sip of rose tea calmly, and said sarcastically: "Then Qin Miaoyan is just a merchant girl, even if Mrs. Xiao likes her, it is impossible to ask her to be her daughter-in-law, otherwise, where will they put the face of the Xiao family in Lanling?" ”
