Chapter Ninety-Six: A Turning Point

The eldest lady Shen came out of the room and whispered a few words to the mother-in-law who was waiting in front of her, and the mother-in-law immediately hurried away in the rain.

An Sheng saw many people in the room, some standing, some sitting, and some kneeling, this is a different status.

There were also people who whimpered and cried, whispering something.

Then two of them stood up, kowtowed in the direction in which the old lady was sitting, and then turned and withdrew.

The mother-in-law, who had gone out in the rain earlier, came back with a vermilion lacquer tray in her hand and covered it with a red cloth.

The two lifted the red cloth, and there were several shiny silver ingots, which they happily accepted into their arms, and then snickered and took their leave.

The eldest lady sent the two away with a smile, sneered, and sneered.

An Sheng vaguely understood that those two should be Aunt Yan's maiden family, and they were sent away by the old lady with silver.

An Sheng was thinking about it, thinking that Aunt Yan's mother's family was not close to her, and it didn't hurt or itch for Aunt Yan. It was enough to sell his daughter as a concubine, and he sent away with a few silver ingots. No wonder Aunt Yan has no status in the house, and she is full of hope for her children.

Now his hope has been disappointed, and he is regarded as a cash cow by his mother's family. It's so hard for a woman to live a good life.

In the room, everyone stood bent down, listened to the old lady's lesson, and then withdrew in twos and threes.

The girls waiting under the eaves of the porch immediately shut up, stepped forward to open the oil-paper umbrella, and supported their masters to carefully turn the corridor and return to their own yards.

No one noticed Ansheng, and in the end she was left alone under the eaves.

There was a mother-in-law who didn't know her, and reprimanded with a straight face: "Which girl in the room?" What is the stupid pestle doing there? ”

The eldest lady Shen raised her face and saw her, and asked in surprise, "An Sheng, why are you here?" ”

It was too late for An Sheng to leave at this time, so he stepped forward and blessed the eldest lady: "If you go back to your aunt, An Sheng is here to visit her grandmother." ”

The eldest lady Shen glanced at the room in embarrassment, and the old lady had already heard the two of them talking, and asked aloud, "But An Sheng is here?" Let her in. ”

Shen raised his voice in response, An Sheng dusted off the moisture on his clothes, lowered his head and entered the house.

An Zheng just took the tea, handed it to the old lady, and then sat down obediently.

The old lady does not shy away from Anzheng in dealing with this kind of thing, which shows that she is indeed teaching hand-in-hand for the open and secret battles in charge of the middle of the house and dealing with the open and secret battles of these women's families.

An Sheng sighed with emotion, if An Ran could get such a little bit from the old lady, she would definitely be able to marry into a simple mansion like the Meng family, and she wouldn't have to worry about it.

The old lady took a sip of hot tea, exhaled a long breath of sullen breath in her heart, and then looked up at An Sheng, and asked in surprise: "Why did it rain and didn't take the carriage?" Look how cold it is that you're soaking wet! ”

An Zheng immediately stood up: "Sister An Sheng is slightly smaller than me, why don't my granddaughter go and get a skirt of mine and come over to change it for my sister?" ”

An Sheng hurriedly shook his head and refused: "No need, thank you Sister An Zheng, I'll go back in a while." ”

Then he smiled at the old lady: "It has been cloudy for the past two days, and the autumn rain has been continuous, so I was worried that my grandmother's leg disease would recur, and I couldn't sleep at night, so I came early in the rain." ”

When the old lady heard her say this, her face was obviously happy: "It's rare that you have a heart, after you gave me acupuncture last time, it was indeed better for two days, and when it rained in the past few days, it began to ache faintly again, which reminds me of you." ”

An Sheng stepped forward, opened the diagnosis bag, and took out the needle sac: "Grandmother's illness is still to cooperate with the fire cup, and it is good to completely get rid of the cold poison. ”

The old lady was skeptical again: "Does the fire pot really work?" ”

An Sheng nodded categorically: "I have seen Master cure patients with such an illness as my grandmother, but it's a pity that An Sheng is not good at medicine." Although the silver needle can test the crux of the problem, he does not dare to test it with his grandmother recklessly. ”

The old lady was silent and did not speak, and seemed to hesitate.

An Zheng helped, pulled up the old lady's trouser legs, wiped them with a hot towel as usual, and then An Sheng bent his arm to hold the needle, and concentrated on the insertion and twist, and she helped on the side.

This time, compared with the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the old lady not only did not feel any pain, but felt immediate and comfortable.

The old lady looked at the comfort in her heart, and couldn't help but sigh: "A group of people greet me when they see the heavens and the earth, and they say all the good things, but they are not as filial as your two children, they are sincerely thinking about the old woman and me, unlike them, they all have plans." ”

An Sheng meticulously and slowly twisted the silver needle, and seemed to be careless: "I also have a plan for my granddaughter." ”

The old lady was surprised and asked, "What are you plotting?" ”

"Naturally, I hope that my grandmother can stay a little longer."

The old lady chuckled: "You are frank. ”

An Sheng smiled "hehe" and continued to pat himself: "I just want to run to my grandmother diligently now, determined to heal my grandmother's leg, and when the time comes, my grandmother will think of my granddaughter as soon as she walks." ”

The old lady was very helpful to this statement: "If you just move over the house and serve me like An Zheng, I don't have to send someone to look for you when my leg hurts." ”

An Zheng's hand stiffened, and he raised his eyes and secretly glanced at An Sheng.

An Shengrao lowered her head, and she could also feel the wariness of herself in her eyes, like an animal defending its territory, vigilantly facing foreign invaders.

An Sheng desperately wanted to move out of the Xia Mansion for the time being to avoid the Xue family's open guns and hidden arrows, but the Dafang Mansion was also a place of right and wrong, and An Sheng didn't think it was much better than the Xia Mansion.

She smiled and refused very firmly: "These days, my father is not at home, only my mother and two younger sisters, Ansheng is not at ease, it is better to stay with them as companions." ”

This is an obvious prevarication, how can the old lady not understand? Thinking about the mess that made him anxious, he couldn't avoid it, so he didn't force it: "It's okay, just wait for your father to return home." ”

An Sheng said as if unintentionally: "It's not cold now, grandmother can also take Sister An Zheng to our house for a few days." Ansheng sees the sky to give you an acupuncture, and it will not take much time to see the effect. ”

The old lady sighed: "I think, I have to worry about so many trivial things in this house." ”

"Isn't there still an uncle in the house? Besides, my aunt has honored you for so many years, and she should let her mother and granddaughter do their filial piety for a few days, right? ”

An Zheng immediately interjected: "Isn't it, there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, this house depends on the grandmother to support it, but ...... My granddaughter was really distressed to look at it, and I hoped that my grandmother would be able to rest for a few days, and I would leave these trivial tasks to my mother. ”

An Sheng immediately shut up in recognition.

As the saying goes, "a daughter-in-law for many years has become a mother-in-law", and An Zheng's mother Shen has survived to the age of her grandmother, but she is still under the constraints of the old lady every day, morning and dusk, I am afraid that she can go to the second room to live for a few days, and she can also taste the taste of being the master of the house.

Looking at the meaning of An Zheng, it is false to feel sorry for the old lady, and I am afraid that it is true that I feel sorry for my mother.

An Zheng said a word or two against himself, and he wore out his mouth.

The silver needles were taken off one by one, and the old lady slowly moved her slightly stiff knee joints, and nodded with satisfaction: "It's really useful, I thought it was a coincidence last time, but this time it hurt badly, and it seemed to be immediate." ”

Then, she turned her face to An Sheng: "Go back and remember to ask your master for advice, how is the fire pot used?" ”

An Sheng raised his head suddenly: "Grandmother, don't you object to me studying medicine?" ”

The old lady smiled: "I've been thinking about it for the past few days, and the apprentices taught by a person of such character as your master shouldn't be much worse." ”

"Thank you, Grandmother!"

An Sheng immediately became excited, and his eyebrows fluttered.

"It's not early today, so I won't leave you, go back early, and I'll send someone from the house to inform your mother when I get back."

An Sheng happily responded, so as not to beg for a few more words. The old lady sent someone to bring some autumn fruits and snacks to An Sheng, and asked her to bring them back for the Xue family to taste as well.
