Chapter Ninety-Nine: Return to Beijing

After lingering in the clan for some time, the old lady of the long house returned to Beijing with her daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter, and brought two large carts of gifts when she came, and the cart was full of wild game when she left.

Brother Heng insisted on riding a horse to the ferry, and the old lady of the long house saw that Brother Heng was also skilled in riding, so she instructed her family to follow and escort Brother Heng to walk slowly.

The eldest lady Dong insisted on serving the old lady of the long house, so she rode with the old lady of the long house, and Lin Yi and Lin Wan shared a carriage.

Lin Yi and Lin Shuang chatted all night, and after getting in the car, she let Linglong take the cushion and lean on the half-asleep, and when she woke up and opened her eyes, she saw Lin Wan's kind smile, "Sleep, I'll call you in a while." ”

As soon as Lin Wan said this, Lin Yi became completely sleepy, and took out the nine rings that Lin Shuang gave her to play. Lin Wan seized all the time to do needlework. This time I embroidered my forehead, and I don't know which lady I plan to give it to. Lin Wan is not only scheming, but also very hard-working.

After getting on the boat, Lin Yi had the opportunity to talk to the old lady of the long house, with the eldest lady Dong and Lin Wan there, Lin Yi put aside the affairs of the capital, and gossiped with the old lady of the long house. ”

The old lady of Changfang nodded, "I heard the aunt of Changfang mention that she is very motivated, takes good care of the family's fields, and also grows medicinal herbs in the mountains, not the kind of child who does not do his job." ”

When Linshuang talked about the man's room, she always felt that life was not easy.

The old lady of the long room sighed, "There is no perfect marriage, I think Linshuang's child is not stubborn, and after a long time, he will figure it out." ”

I have to deal with the house all day long, and I have to learn how to keep my husband in the house. After getting married, he asked for a child...... Days like this...... Is that what she's going to experience in the future?

The carriage went to the long house, and the third wife, Xiao Shi, was already waiting at the hanging flower gate, picking up the old lady and the eldest lady Dong in the long room, and then went to see a pair of children.

Brother Heng has lost some weight, and he seems to have grown taller. Xiao asked with concern, "What happened to the leg injury?" ”

Brother Heng smiled and said, "It's all right, mother rest assured!" ”

Xiao Shi looked at Brother Heng and went to see Lin Yi. "I've lost weight," he whispered, "and I made it a point to have you stew your favorite soup." Eat more in a while. ”

The clan did not owe her anything for food. She was just worried about Jingli and was dragged by Linshuang to run away from the Manchus, so she lost weight.

After settling down the old lady in the long room, the eldest lady Dong took Lin Wan back to the second room, and the old lady in the long room asked her to divide half of the things sent by the clan and let the eldest lady take them back to the second old lady Dong.

Sending the sticky belly mother and daughter away, the old lady straightened her back and let out a long sigh. Mother Bai closed the door, and Brother Heng and Lin Yi shrank on the east kang to listen to Xiao's talk about the affairs of Beijing.

"The second uncle hasn't been home for three days, and the daughter-in-law has just let people find out, and the second uncle may have to ...... from Rong this time."

At this time, from Rong?

The old lady of the long room was surprised. But in a blink of an eye, she figured it out, "I knew that the Dong family had always had the means, not to mention that she also had such a good daughter-in-law who had a wide range of friends." ”

The old lady of the long room was pale. "There are people who are working hard in front, and it's time to pick up the benefits. No one wants to be left behind. ”

The second wife, Tian, has been friends with dignitaries for a long time, and naturally has such ability at critical moments.

Speaking of this, Xiao Shi was stunned, "I have been paying attention to it before, but I haven't found anything going on, the second sister-in-law still goes out to lecture as usual, and the second old lady has been inquiring about the affairs of the clan, but I didn't expect ......"

"I don't blame you," the old lady of the long house took a sip of tea, "such a big thing, they naturally have to do it well." "She didn't arrange this way in order to make the third child her stepson.

Hearing this, Xiao Shi curtsied to the old lady of the long room, "The old lady has worked hard for the master's affairs. ”

The old lady of the long room stretched out her hand to let the Xiao family get up, "There is also your credit for this," she paused as she spoke, "Is there any news from the Zheng family?" ”

Xiao Shi shook his head and turned his gaze to Lin Yi, "Miss Zheng Qi wrote a letter to Lin Yi yesterday. ”

Lin Yi got Miss Zheng Qi's letter from the box, saw that no one next to her opened the letter, first looked at the envelope to see if there was a small note, and then went to read the letter.

A note from Zhou Nineteen changed her habits.

When I opened the letter, there was a piece of grass in it.

Hook vine.

It is often seen in Fujian.

This was brought back by Zhou Shijiu.

……

When the Xiao family saw the documents written by the clan, a smile appeared on their faces, "If the master comes back and reads it, he will be happy." Speaking of this, Xiao's eyes sank again.

The old lady of the long room served by the Xiao family lay down to rest, and then helped Lin Yi tidy up the cage.

Lin Yi told the Xiao family about the affairs of the clan, and when she heard that the daughter-in-law of the clan was fighting because of the two sons of the second old lady Dong family, the Xiao family also pursed her lips and smiled, "How can this be." ”

"There's nothing like this at home," Xiao Shi pulled Lin Yi to sit aside, "It's just that your fourth sister fell ill after two days, and your second aunt took her to Zizhu Courtyard to let her learn the rules while recuperating." ”

Saying that she was sick was actually an excuse, and the second wife, Tian, just wanted to relieve Lin Fang.

"Mother, don't worry." Lin Yi saw that Xiao was worried, and whispered to advise.

Xiao sighed, "I've been sleeping for the past few days to remind my fear, for fear of any bad news." ”

This worry is coming to an end, since Zhou Shijiu asked people to bring the hook vine into Beijing, there is already news from Fujian.

On the second day, Lin Yi replied to Miss Zheng Qi and Miss Qi San.

Miss Qi San repeatedly invited Lin Yi to Qi's house, and the old lady in the long room also agreed, asking her mother-in-law to accompany Lin Yi to Qi's house as a guest. Miss Qi San and Miss Fifth took Lin Yi into the house and began to ask non-stop.

Lin Yi told the scenery of Tongzhou Mansion and the two ladies of the Qi family.

Miss Qi San listened with envy, "It's a pity that we didn't have this opportunity to go out." ”

Second Mrs. Qi instructed the girl to bring the fruit over, and then said a few words to Lin Yi cordially, and with the opening remarks, the next words were smoothly completed, "I heard that the old lady of the long house went to the clan this time to take your father as her stepson?" ”

Lin Yi bowed, "But I still have to wait for my father to come back safely." ”

Second Mrs. Qi's eyes flashed and smiled, "It should be like this, the old lady of the long house is old, and there must always be someone by her side," After saying this, the second Mrs. Qi covered up, "I heard that the old lady of the long room has a much better cough." ”

Lin Yi raised her head and saw that Miss Qi San pouted, and Miss Qi Wu frowned slightly, obviously not very agreeing with her mother's approach.

What exactly is there that can't be said.

Lin Yi smiled slightly, "It's much better." ”

"The ancestor of the in-law family once worked in the Tai Hospital, and there are a lot of medical books in the family, but I didn't expect the descendants to dislike this, but there was a female doctor, but unfortunately the woman can only see some symptoms in private," Mrs. Qi sighed, and looked at Lin Yi with a smile, "You learned a lot of pharmacology from Mr. Yuqiu, right?" ”

Lin Yi would not say it bluntly, Second Mrs. Qi obviously had a request, it was not the first time she had a relationship with the Qi family, even if she was sincere, "I will know some, Mr. taught me some recipes, and I will change the method to make some medicinal food on weekdays." My grandmother had a cough, so I made pear paste, and my grandmother took it for a while, which was very effective. ”

Second Mrs. Qi was overjoyed when she heard this, "I don't know if this kind of pear paste is good or not." ”

I only asked her if the pear paste was good to make, but she didn't say who needed it.

Lin Yi remembered that Miss Qi San said that Qi Erlang was sick, and Mrs. Qi Er asked for this recipe for Qi Erlang!

I don't know if I want Qi Erlang to be too deeply involved with her.

"It's easy to do," Lin Yi responded simply, "I'll write it down for my wife in a while, but in fact, my grandmother's cough is not serious, and the pear paste I made is only suitable for the situation, and the real illness is not easy to use." ”

Second Mrs. Qi couldn't hide the disappointment on her face.

"However, my husband gave me a prescription that is very effective for coughs." Second Mrs. Qi had already inquired about it, and her in-laws were good at curing lung weakness, so she came to ask her.

Lin Yi's face was silent, "It's just that it's not easy to ask for flavored medicine, and my wife may have to work hard." To use the orange red of Huazhou Mansion. ”

"The orange red of Huazhou Mansion is a tribute, and it can't be bought outside, so my wife has to find a way to even it out." Tributes are generally given to nobles, important ministers, and clansmen.

Not only told her the prescription, but also told her where to get the medicine. Miss Chen Liu is really good-natured, if it weren't for the eventful time of the Chen family, although the Chen family's door was a little lower, it was not impossible, Mrs. Qi took Lin Yi's hand, "Good boy, you have helped me a lot." ”

Lin Yi smiled and pretended not to know the inside story, "I just happen to know." Moreover, my wife, too, has to find Lang Zhong to see, in case something is not suitable, it is easy to adjust the formula. However, the method of making the ointment, Mrs. Don't tell others, I haven't married Mr. Qiu, so it's not good to spread it out. ”

Second Mrs. Qi nodded, squinting her eyes, "I know." ”

Lin Yi came out alone for the first time, so it was not good to stay for too long, so she asked people to prepare a carriage to go back early.

Sending Lin Yi away, Miss Qi San frowned and complained to Second Mrs. Qi, "Mother, what is going on, Mother really can't hear Miss Chen Liu?" My sister and I are really ashamed to death, before we obviously wanted to say goodbye to the Chen family, but now not only do we not mention it, but also guard against others, our family is also a scholarly family, and we are not afraid of people's jokes when we say it. ”

Second Mrs. Qi frowned, "How do you say this?" I'm also for Miss Chen's good, it's the master who said that he won't mention family affairs until after your brother is in the spring......"

Miss Qi San's eyes curled, and just as she was about to speak, she was pulled by Miss Qi Wu.

"Don't say that this is going to suffocate me," Miss Qi San shook off her sister's hand angrily, "Father and mother just want to climb the high door, their eyes only look high, don't fall and regret it." ”
