Chapter 57: Gift-giving (Pink 10+)
The team of nurses that the Ji family brought to the Gu family were all from Tongzhou.
There is a Xue martial arts hall in Tongzhou, and the old man Xue in it traveled south and north in his early years, and he was full of martial arts. Later, when he returned to Tongzhou, he opened the Xue Martial Arts Hall, which specialized in teaching poor children the art of self-defense and martial arts, and most of the Ji family's nursing homes were selected from the martial arts hall, and even Qingpu also followed Master Xue's third son to practice his skills.
The Ji family is very good to these nursing homes that come out of the martial arts hall, giving seven taels a month, and food and cloth for their families, which is higher than the average second-class girl per month, and it has not changed when they arrive at the Gu family, and some of them are not in-laws, and the Ji family will also allow them a wife. The nurses were between thirty and forty years old and devoted to their mother.
Mother Xu brought the leader of the nursing home, who was tall and big, with hands like a fan, and he looked very calm. This person is the son of the Xue family, ranked Xue 16, and has a wife and a pair of children in Tongzhou.
Xue Sixteen saluted Jin Chao with his fists and did not say anything to say hello.
Jin Chao also knew that this group of people were not too rigid in the rules and didn't care about these, so he asked Bai Yun to serve him tea and invite him to sit on the stone pier and talk.
"You are the nephew of Old Man Xue, and there is a girl next to me who practiced with Old Man Xue's third son, so I still have to call you Uncle Shi." Jin Chao smiled and asked Qing Pu to come over and see Xue Sixteen.
Xue Sixteen stood still and refused to sit down, nodded to Qingpu, and said to Jin Chao: "Miss, don't be polite, if you have anything to order, just say it, and the humble will try its best to help you." ”
The nurse is a mother, and he is naturally willing to listen to her instructions, but he may not really respect her. It also took more than a decade for the mother to exchange their loyalty. Gu Jinchao remembered that in his previous life, he went to Yongyang Bofu to play, and his father asked Xue Sixteen to go with him with a few guards, and he had to go boating in the lake with Miss Yongyang Bosan, but the guards and mother-in-law didn't listen to her no matter how they persuaded her, so she fell off the wooden boat, thanks to Xue Sixteen jumping into the water to save her. When they returned home, they were all punished by their fathers, saying that they were not effective in protecting the Lord.
The nurses don't complain though. But it will definitely be uncomfortable in my heart.
Jin Chao wanted to save Xiuqu, but it was also because of Yuzhu, the girl was smart and loyal, and she didn't want to implicate her friends because of this. After all, Xiuqu suffered this catastrophe because of them. Jin Chao couldn't bear it, after all, she was also a loyal servant.
Aunt Song wanted Xiuqu to die, it was originally a very simple matter, who would investigate if a little girl went to stay. But she didn't want to be discovered by Yuzhu, but where Xiuqu was now, whether she was dead or not, she didn't know. There are several idle yards in the backyard of the Gu family, whether this girl is in these idle yards or in Aunt Song's yard, she has to find a nurse to see.
After thinking about it, Jin Chao said to Xue Sixteen, "I called you here this time." But I want you to find someone, a twelve-year-old girl. She was kind to me earlier, but she was punished by Aunt Song for making mistakes, and now she is gone. I think when you are patrolling, look for it in the side courtyard of the Gu family. Be sure to search carefully in each side courtyard, and don't leave a room out to see if you can find this person. ”
Xue Sixteen thought for a moment, and then asked, "This girl is hiding because she can't stand the punishment?" ”
Jin Chao said: "The situation is urgent, let's not talk about these things first." If you can find her, you'll know...... If you can find her in the side yard, bring her with you at once. ”
Xue Sixteen frowned slightly, the eldest lady has not made much progress now. He was actually asked to come to the girl. But he didn't say anything and came down, and retreated with his fists clenched. Cai Fu watched him follow Xu's mother out, and whispered to Jin Chao, "I don't think Xue Huyuan is very obedient to you. ”
Jin Chao explained: "Those who learn martial arts are simple-minded, and if they can obey them, they will obey orders." I am now able to call them through my mother, otherwise how can the Gu family afford to invite Old Man Xue's nephew......"
After finishing speaking, he didn't mention Xue Sixteen's matter again.
After a while, Tong's mother returned. Said to Jin Chao: "...... Dr. Liu is waiting for you in the flower hall. ”
Jin Chao nodded and went to the flower hall, and said to Tong's mother: "There are three altars in the autumn dew in the house, and bring them to Dr. Liu." ”
She wanted to ask Dr. Liu to come over to see if Ji's diet was inappropriate, and Mother Xu had already told her that poisoning was impossible. She had already turned over the Xiexiao Courtyard and checked it, and there was no problem with the incense burner and bowls. Even the bedding used by my mother has been replaced.
Jin Chao asked her to write a list of the dishes and ingredients commonly used by her mother, and if there was anything in it that was not suitable for her mother's condition, she could remove it in time.
Dr. Liu read the list very carefully, and after confirming it again and again, he said: "Madame is a weak disease, the spleen and stomach are cold, and the blood is weak and the qi is weak. Everything above is mild and nourishing, and there is nothing inappropriate about it. ”
Jin Chao was a little puzzled, so everything was ruled out. Is what Mr. Xiao said true?
She asked, "Is there something unusual about my mother's recurrent condition?" ”
Dr. Liu was a little embarrassed: "It's hard to say, if it's because of too much depression in my heart, it may also aggravate the condition......"
I really couldn't find anything wrong, and asking Dr. Liu was also embarrassing for him, so Jin Chao thanked him and asked Tong's mother to send Dr. Liu out of the house with Qiu Lubai. I thought about what my mother eats and uses every day, and there is really nothing wrong...... However, Mr. Xiao has not personally diagnosed his mother's condition, so it is possible that his judgment is biased.
Jin Chao thought about going to Aunt Song once in the evening to find out if the embroidery canal was there.
In the afternoon, Master Xue wanted to teach her Su embroidery, Jin Chao showed Master Xue his framed Bogu map, this time the embroidery was Su embroidery, the birds and beasts embroidered by Shu were lifelike, the stitches were dense and neat, and the Su embroidery was not as good as Shu embroidery, and it was more freehand than it.
The four screens are embroidered with Baoding, vases, high tables and other things, the colors are elegant and soft, and Master Xue is full of praise when he sees it. The Jin Dynasty was originally only exquisite Shu embroidery, and now Su embroidery is also very good, and the embroidery art is originally the same, and she is willing to work hard, so it will be no problem.
After having dinner with his mother in the evening, Jin Chao asked the little maid to carry the four screens to Linyan Pavilion.
My father hadn't summoned Aunt Song for a month, and he hadn't come to her. Either he was either at Aunt Luo's, or he slept in Juliu Pavilion. Aunt Song now spends most of her time in the Yanxie in addition to taking care of housekeeping.
Aunt Song asked people to bring apricot tea to the Jin Dynasty: "...... The apricots that are just ripe in early summer are still green. I had people beat it down and make apricot tea, and put a few grains of sugar, and the eldest lady likes sweet. ”
Jin Chao glanced at the pale yellow tea, took a sip, and casually rested it on the small table next to him.
"I'm here to see my aunt, and I'll send you something by the way." Jin Chao asked the little maid to lift the four screens up, "I started embroidering when Sister Lan was with Lu, and it took more than a month to embroider, thinking that I hadn't given my aunt anything, so I might as well take this and send it." It's also a piece of my heart. ”
The smile on the corner of Aunt Song's mouth froze. Gu Jinchao didn't have anything to mention about Gu Lan's courtesy...... When the little girl lifted the screen, Aunt Song stood up and looked at the four screens: "It's really well embroidered, the eldest lady's embroidery is much better than Sister Lan'er!" I don't think the flowers and birds are too fancy, but I like the simplicity of Bogutu. "Let the two mothers-in-law on the side come up," lift the screen to the ear room and put it away, but be careful not to break it. ”
Jin Chao smiled slightly: "Auntie, don't you dislike me for not embroidering well, why do you want to receive the ear room?" I see that you don't have a screen in the west room, so it's not bad to use this. "The ear room is a place to put sundries, and Aunt Song doesn't take her things seriously.
She knew in her heart that Aunt Song was very cautious by nature, and if she said it was ugly, she would be suspicious. I gave her four screens for no reason, she couldn't figure out what her idea was, and she definitely wouldn't use it. The more she said that she would use it, the more Aunt Song wouldn't use it.
Aunt Song's smile was inevitably stiff, and she explained: "The eldest lady doesn't know, my house is very stuffy in the summer, and I have to open the door to ventilate. ”
Jin Chao felt funny in his heart, this Linyan Pavilion was built on the lake, and it was the coolest. However, she didn't continue, but nodded reluctantly: "Since that's the case, I won't force my aunt." However, this screen is made of sandalwood and is not glazed, but it cannot be damp. You can't put it in the transept, I see that the wings on the west side are very dry. ”
In addition to the main house, the east wing, and the lower room are all inhabited, and if the embroidery canal is here, the most likely is the west wing. There are many locust trees planted there, and the shade of the trees is like a cover, and the girls and mothers-in-law rarely go there.
