Chapter 172: Humble
Chapter 172 Humble
When Ming Fei and Gong Yanbi heard about it, they rushed over. Second Mrs. Gong has gathered Gong Yuanzhi, Gong Yuanke, Gong Yuanji and others in front of the bed. The doctor was talking to Gong Yuanzhi about the symptoms of Second Mrs. Gong: "Madame, this is a disharmony of yin and yang, and yin deficiency in the liver and kidneys, resulting in dizziness, insomnia, tinnitus, irritability, backache and weak legs, and irregular menstrual affairs. Nourish the liver and kidneys, nourish the heart and calm the nerves. ”
Gong Yuanzhi sighed: "Does it matter?" To tell the truth, in recent years, my mother has indeed been irritable and irritable, often has headaches, is not easy to sleep, and has a light sleep. ”
The doctor smiled: "It's not important, it's very common, take some medicine, raise and raise, and be a child." "Like Second Mrs. Gong's situation, he has seen too much, either because he is older, or because her husband has a concubine. Or if you are away for a long time, yin and yang are out of balance, and people can't think about it anymore, and these symptoms will appear.
Gong Yuanzhi and Gong Jingqi, who were hiding in the curtain, heard that it didn't matter, so they put their hearts down and waited for the doctor to prescribe medicine.
Gong Yuanzhi carefully put away the prescription, sent the doctor out, and met Gong Yuanhe who came in a hurry, and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Brother, why are you here?" ”
Gong Yuanhe said: "Your sister-in-law asked someone to call me in the yamen." What's the matter, is my aunt feeling better? ”
Although Gong Yuanzhi knew that he would definitely not be as concerned and anxious as he appeared, he was willing to rush back to take a look, but he was also happy in his heart, and said it briefly, Gong Yuanhe went into the house to see Second Mrs. Gong, and he sent the doctor out without mentioning it.
A group of people were busy for a long time, feeding Second Mrs. Gong the medicine, seeing her fall asleep, Gong Yuan and Fang summoned everyone to go out to discuss: "No wonder Auntie is so irritable and irritable during this time, it turns out that she is sick, you are too careless, you serve every day, and find that something is wrong, but no one thinks of asking a doctor to diagnose the pulse." ”
Gong Yuanzhi thought that it was also his own fault, he found that something was wrong several times, and he also discussed with Gong Jingqi to ask a doctor to come to diagnose the pulse, but it was always not done for various reasons. I didn't expect it to be so ferocious today, and I couldn't help but feel ashamed and guilty: "What my brother criticizes." ”
Aunt Zhu wiped her tears full of regret and self-blame. Said sincerely: "It's all my fault." I followed my wife on the xth day, seeing that she couldn't eat or sleep well, but I couldn't persuade her to ask the doctor to come and see. If the doctor had come to the clinic early and used the medicine as soon as possible, it would not have come to this point. This means that it is not that she has not been persuaded, but that she cannot be persuaded.
Gong Yuanke remembered that she did seem to have mentioned this, and sighed and said, "That's it, it's not my aunt's fault." You have served your wife wholeheartedly all year round, and everyone can see it. ”
Gong Jingqi was a little depressed when she saw that the sky had fallen, and said: "The doctor said that it doesn't matter, just take a few pills and take care of it, don't worry too much." There is still official business in my brother's yamen, and the hour is not early, so it is better to go back early. ”
Gong Yuanhe said: "No need, I won't go back today, just stay here to serve my aunt." ”
Gong Jingqi couldn't persuade her, so she ordered someone to send tea and fruits. The family sat and gossiped. About half an hour later, Gong Yanbi came out and said, "Madame wants to eat porridge." ”
Aunt Zhu frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Why don't I make a bowl of jujube lotus bean rice porridge for my wife, mung beans clear away heat and relieve heat, and relieve dampness and annoyance; Lotus seeds nourish the heart and kidneys, calm the nerves and strengthen the heart; Red dates and stomach are regulated, nourishing and nourishing blood. This porridge nourishes yin and nourishes the body, nourishes qi and strengthens the body, and is most suitable for ladies. ”
Gong Jingqi said: "Then it will be annoying to Aunt Lao." ”
Aunt Zhu said honestly: "Third Miss is polite, we can only be good when Mrs. is good." For Mrs. is also for ourselves, what to say is not troublesome. This was said bluntly and in place, and Gong Jingqi couldn't help but have a smile on her face.
Gong Yanbi said: "Auntie, I'll go with you, and I'll give you a hand, so you have to hurry up." ”
Gong Yuanhe saw that the mother and daughter couldn't wait to get together, and asked Ming Fei inquiringly with their eyes, Ming Fei winked at him, indicating that he had introduced the two candidates to Gong Yanbi, and Gong Yanbi was going to discuss with her mother.
Aunt Zhu's mother and daughter moved really quickly, and brought the porridge back in half an hour, Ming Fei leaned over to take a look, and saw that the porridge was cooked very well, whether it was mung beans or rice grains, they were all cooked, and she couldn't help but say curiously: "What method does Auntie use, this mung bean is less than two hours, and it is not easy to cook like this." ”
Aunt Zhu said with a smile: "Big * milk doesn't know, in this hot day, the family often has to boil mung bean porridge or lotus seed soup to cool off, so there are mung beans and lotus seeds soaked in the kitchen for a long time." Otherwise, Madame would have waited to eat, and I would not have dared to propose to make this porridge. ”
Gong Jingqi specially praised her and said: "Auntie is really thoughtful. Mother hands you over the kitchen. Over the years, nothing has gone wrong. ”
Aunt Zhu smiled faintly: "The third lady praises falsely, this is the lady's housekeeper, and the concubine does not dare to take credit." ”
Ming Fei couldn't listen to the two of them praising her, and said with a smile: "The porridge is neither lukewarm nor hot, just right." Looking at Gong Yanbi again, there was still some crimson on her face, and she stood silently in a corner, her eyes were looking at Second Mrs. Gong, her eyes were dazed, and she was absent-minded at first glance.
Gong Jingqi hurriedly woke up the second lady Gong who had fallen asleep again to eat porridge. For a while, several women in the room were busy coming in and out, the stars were circling the moon, and they looked like they loved each other, filial piety and virtuousness.
Second Mrs. Gong's appetite is not very good, and after eating half a bowl of porridge, she said no, Aunt Zhu took the bowl and said with a smile: "This porridge is boiled very well, but it's a pity to pour it, it just so happens that the concubine is not sleeping well these days, why don't you reward the concubine?" ”
Second Mrs. Gong waved her hand lightly, turned over and continued to sleep.
Aunt Zhu picked up the remaining half bowl of porridge and ate it sweetly, and Ming Fei noticed that the Gong family was not surprised at all by her overly humble behavior. It seems to be taken for granted and taken for granted. It can be seen that she often eats the leftovers of Second Mrs. Gong, no wonder Second Mrs. Gong is so relieved to hand over her diet to her. At this time, what she was most interested in was, how far would Mrs. Gong's illness go under Aunt Zhu's diet?
Aunt Zhu took the tea handed by the little maid and rinsed her mouth, and when she looked up, she met Ming Fei's eyes, and smiled calmly: "Do you need to use a little big * milk?" There's still one in the kitchen, and I'll have someone bring it. ”
"Aunt Xie, I'm not hungry." Ming Fei shook her head and admired sincerely: "Auntie is really capable." ”
Aunt Zhu looked at Gong Jingqi: "Uncle and big * milk are going to stay for dinner tonight, right?" Why don't I go to the kitchen and prepare dinner? ”
Gong Jingqi was reminded by her. Busy laughing: "That's natural. It's a family, where is the reason to leave without eating? Sister-in-law, what do you want to eat? ”
How could Ming Fei make a request? Smiled: "I'm not a picky eater, what to eat." ”
Gong Jingqi was not polite, and Aunt Zhu went to prepare, taking advantage of the fact that Second Mrs. Gong was asleep, she took Ming Fei's hand and whispered: "Sister-in-law, I have to ask for your forgiveness if there is something." My mother is sick, and I don't know when I will have the energy to worry about housework. I still have a thousand taels of silver there, which are given by the elders during the New Year's holidays, so I will ask someone to bring them, and you will use them first, and the rest will be said when my mother's illness is better. Don't be a joke, so that people can see the joke. ”
Ming Fei was furious when she heard it, it turned out that she wanted living expenses, that is, she was persecuting patients, and she had to rely on her sister and brother to use private money to subsidize her brother and sister-in-law, it was like how much they owed someone a favor, what kind of truth is this! smiled at the moment: "The third sister doesn't have to be so embarrassed, we are brother and sister-in-law, no matter how ignorant we are, we don't dare to know the proportions when my aunt is seriously ill, and I am even more embarrassed to use my sister's private money to subsidize the family." For the sake of the family's reputation, if you don't want us to do it, we won't go, and I'll go back to my parents' house to borrow some, and I'll talk about it when my aunt recovers. ...
