Chapter 245: The Continuum of Contradictions
When Mrs. Lu heard Liu Xin's threat, she was really angry enough. Master Lu came back to persuade her, "Mother, don't be in a hurry, otherwise it will not only push Manya and Cheng'er further, but it will really get me out of Beijing." Let's wait, the second brother is back, and he has his own way to coax the He family over. He's heart is biased towards us, and the sister and brother of the man girl can change their minds. ”
Of course, Mrs. Lu didn't want her eldest son to be sent to a remote place to be an official. She thought about the sticky appearance of the second child and the He family at the beginning, and laughed. Also, the second handsome child will coax people again, as long as he comes back, are you afraid that he won't be able to return to He's heart?
In the evening, as soon as Lu Man sent the guests in the mansion away, Jiang Zhanwei's personal soldier Liu Chun came back quickly. said that the third master knew about the third grandmother's birthday today, and specially asked him to come back to send a letter and a birthday gift.
Lu Man asked Liu Chun to take Liu Chun to the front yard to drink and rest, and asked people to send them letters and gifts to the eldest princess, the second master, and gifts to the He family, so he huddled with Jiang Zhankui and Jiang Jiu to read their letters and gifts.
Jiang Zhanwei brought Jiang Jiu a set of jewelry inlaid with bloodstone. brought Jiang Zhankui a captured dagger, which was also inlaid with gems, which was very beautiful.
Lu Man looked at the dagger and frowned, and said, "You are still young, let Lingzhi help you keep it when you grow up, and then play when you grow up." ”
Jiang Zhankui was reluctant, but he nodded obediently.
There are more for Lu Man, including bloodstone jewelry, ornaments, and four snow solitary skins and four purple carved skins.
Seeing Jiang Jiu's face full of envy, Lu Man smiled and said, "Take two snow lone skins to make shoulders for Xiao Jiu'er, and wear them in winter." ”
Jiang Jiu shook his head and said, "This is my brother's sister-in-law, I don't worry about it, my sister-in-law does it herself." ”
Lu Man said again, "What is given to my sister-in-law is my sister-in-law, and my sister-in-law is willing to do it for Xiao Jiu'er." ”
Jiang Zhanwei's letter is full of ten pages, full of lovesickness and expectations for children, and there is not a single word of description of the cruel battlefield. It seems that he is just traveling far away and misses his wife at home......
If it weren't for this handsome and strong font, Lu Man would have thought that someone else wrote it for him.
This person is a unity of contradictions. When it is cold, it is colder than an iceberg, so cold that people are cold to the bone, so cold that people just want to escape thousands of miles away. But when you are enthusiastic, you can roast people again.
Which one is the real him?
During the night, she lost sleep again.
On May 20, Dr. Gu left with his grandson and valuable gifts. He and Lu Man fully exchanged their respective treatments and understandings of heart diseases, and also readjusted the treatment plan for Jiang Zhanyu.
Doctor Gu also said that Jiang Zhanyu would not need to go to Dingzhou to see him in the future, and if nothing else, "Doctor Lu" would be able to guarantee his life for another 20 years.
Lu Man whispered to Jiang Zhanyu again, "I will continue to work hard and strive to let you live for at least another thirty years." ”
Old Doctor Gu's words and Lu Man's promise made Jiang Zhanyu very excited, and also made the eldest princess, the second master, and the second lady cry happily.
The eldest princess looked at this granddaughter-in-law even more differently.
The day before Dr. Gu left, Lu Man invited him to go to the county prince's mansion again, and the two consulted with the princess and adjusted the prescription for her.
Lu Man has worked very hard for more than a month, and he wants to go to the countryside to live for a while, rest and rest, and then quietly recall the results of the exchange with Doctor Gu and sort them out. Of course, the most important thing is the suspected night yellow flower, she wants to tell Zheng Qiang, she can't remember the specific place, it should not be too far from Zheng Qiang's temporary house in the mountains. In the current situation, it is impossible for her to look for flowers, so she can only ask Zheng Qiang to take someone to find them.
Lu Man went to tell the eldest princess. The eldest princess didn't agree at first, but when she heard that there was suspected of having an "ancient" magic medicine in the mountains over there, she agreed. But she had to be safe and bring more people. While she brought the eight guards of Donghui Temple, she also had to bring ten more guards from the Eldest Princess's Mansion.
Lu Man asked the eldest princess's mansion to go to the outskirts of Beijing with her, that is, Aunt Wei, who was in charge of the flower house. Mrs. Wei has been planting flowers and plants for decades and has rich experience in planting flowers. If you can really find that flower, whether it is a night yellow flower or not, Lu Man wants to cultivate it. If it is, it should be regarded as a medicinal material, and if it is not, it should be regarded as a pure ornamental flower.
That kind of flower must be difficult to plant, otherwise it would not have been Lu Man who has lived two lifetimes and only seen it once.
The eldest princess gave it very happily.
On May 21, Lu Man took Jiang Zhankui's little brother and sister, He's mother and son, as well as more than a dozen maids-in-law, long-term followers, more than a dozen guards, and two dogs and one cat, and went to the northwest slope village of Shaping County on the outskirts of Beijing.
For safety, Lu Man sat in a sedan chair.
Although Jiang Kui and He Cheng also followed, they would return to Beijing the next day, and they didn't want to affect their schoolwork because of playing.
Because they had to take care of the sedan chair that Lu Man was sitting on, the horses and carriages walked relatively slowly, and they went out in the morning and arrived in Zhuangzi before the end of the morning.
That Zhuangzi is a two-entry courtyard, and Uncle Wang and Mama Wang have already brought people here a day earlier and cleaned up the room.
The head of the village here is surnamed Li, known as Uncle Li, and he lives here with his wife Aunt Li.
The male lives in the front yard, and Lu Man lives in the inner courtyard with his little brother and sister, He's mother and son, and the girl's mother-in-law.
Lu Man was extremely tired, so he simply ate some food, washed up and rested. She and Jiang Jiu lived in the east and west rooms of the upper room, the He family lived in the north room of the east wing, He Cheng and Jiang Zhankui lived in the south room, and the other subordinates lived in the west wing or the ear room in one room for two or three people.
By the time Lu Man woke up, it was already evening, and the red sunset reflected the pale cyan curtains in light red.
Mama Wang served her to dress and said with a smile, "Uncle took the eighth master, the second girl, and the flag chief to Zheng Qiang's house, saying that it was to let the flag chief recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors......"
Lu Man also laughed. The little brother and sister heard that Jiang Zhanwei and Lu Man had stayed at Zheng's house for one night, and the flag chief was also from his house, so they had long wanted to go to Zheng's house to play.
When I came to the courtyard, I saw the rolling mountains, green and glowing with golden light, which was very beautiful. Thinking of the scene at that time, Lu Man was still a little afraid, if he hadn't met Jiang Zhanwei, the little original owner would have really died inside. And the yellow flowers, could it be the night yellow flowers that Sun Wa said? I don't know if I can find it at this time.
When it was time to have dinner, a six-year-old black boy was led to the inner courtyard by Uncle Wang, saying that it was Zheng Qiang's eldest son, Zheng Jingang.
Zheng Jingang knelt down and kowtowed to Lu Man and He, saying that Young Master He, Young Master Jiang, and Miss Jiang were left at his house for dinner, and they would come back after eating.
Hearing his name, Lu Man became happy. Little fart kid, what King Kong.
Lu Man asked him to get up, and asked the girl to reward him with a purse containing silver and a bag of sugar. He also rewarded him with a purse.
