The black pressure in this room was full of women and the maids they brought, and when Xia Qi walked in with Luo Qian, he felt that everyone's eyes were on him, so that he was not at ease in his body. At this time, when he saw Xuanping waiting for the old lady to call him, his heart was beating like a drum, and he didn't listen to his hands and feet.

Fortunately, Xia Jin gave him an encouraging look, which gave him the courage to look at death for a moment, and he calmed down all of a sudden.

He stepped forward, followed Luo Qian's appearance, and gave a salute to the old lady Xuanping: "Xia Qi greets the old lady." ”

"Uh-huh, good boy." Old lady Xuanping was very happy when she saw Xia Qi, pointed at him and said to everyone, "Everyone knows about my sister Qi's sister." She has no son, her heart is depressed, and she doesn't think about tea and food all day long. I was afraid that she would make a bad move, so I took her back to Linjiang City. But I didn't want to enter the city, but I met a crazy man Lang Zhong and insisted that my sister Qi had a mad disease. Fortunately, the child was present, and a dose of medicine cured my sister's illness. This kid's medicine is completely different from that of the madman. ”

Saying that, she asked Xia Qi: "What kind of disease did you say my sister Qi had that day, and what did you say about the medicine?" ”

Before coming, in order to prevent gangs, Xia Jin had already told Xia Qi in detail about the treatment that day, and let him remember the medical knowledge that Mrs. Xuanping Hou might want to ask.

Xia Qi has a smart brain, and he grew up in a medical family, although he does not practice medicine, he has memorized several medical books, and he can also tell many diseases under the influence of his ears and eyes. It is not a problem to fool people who do not understand medicine.

At this time, seeing that the old lady Xuanping was very kind, she asked what Xia Jin asked him to remember. He also completely calmed down, and replied: "Mrs. Gu's illness is caused by the fire defeating the soil and wetness, and the gold and water are prosperous. The medicine made by the boy is the method of drying wood and warm gold and warm water. ”

"Yes, yes, that's it." The old lady Xuanping said repeatedly.

The women here are all heads, faces and status in Linjiang City, and they grew up in big families. When she grew up, she married into a powerful family and became a housewife. There is no one who is not a human spirit.

At this time, listening to the words of Mrs. Xuanpinghou, where did they not know their intentions? One by one, they quickly chimed in: "Without a child, everyone will be uncomfortable." At this time, it is still said by quacks that it is a mad demon, no wonder the old lady is angry when she hears it. I couldn't even slap him a few times when I heard this, and then I took him to prison. This kind of person is so hateful. ”

"There is more than one of them, and I have met one. If you are not sick, you should say that you are sick, and if you are not sick, you should say that you are sick, and if you are a minor illness, you should say that you are sick, and the purpose is one, that is, bluffing. You obediently pay for the medicine, and after drinking the medicine, you have to thank him, thank him for curing your illness. In fact. There is no disease at all, where do you need to drink medicine? This kind of Lang is the most hateful. ”

"Not really. This kind of man is worse than a liar......"

Wait for everyone's voices to gradually fall down. The old lady Xuanping Hou said gratefully: "Alas, fortunately, everyone understands this truth, otherwise my sister's reputation will be ruined by this inexplicable Langzhong." ”

Everyone expressed their determination again: "Don't worry, old lady, who would believe the words of such a person?" ”

"Mrs. Wang, everyone also met just now. Except for being a little depressed, the whole person is fine. No one would believe the words of the madman. The old lady can rest assured. ”

“……”

Xia Jin stood behind Xia Qi's left, looking at his shocked appearance with dark eyes, and couldn't help but laugh secretly. This kind of occasion where a group of women compete to tie up with people in high positions, Xia Qi is afraid that he has never seen it. It's a good thing for him to see it now.

If you are well-informed, you will not be coaxed away by a few kind words. Children who grow up in large families are more shrewd and able to handle affairs than children from small families, and this is the difference.

After everyone had explained this topic thoroughly, Mrs. Xuanping Hou pointed at Xia Qi and said, "Don't talk about anything else." This Xia Xiaolangzhong has excellent medical skills, and he can be regarded as saving my aunt's wife's life. I specially invited him to the banquet today, so that you can meet him. If there is anything in the future, everyone will take care of him when they see him, and I will naturally accept everyone's affection here. ”

This sentence suddenly made these noble ladies envious of Xia Qi. can let the old lady Xuanping Hou take the initiative to say that she wants to cover it, and this little brother surnamed Xia can be regarded as a gold medal for avoiding death. In the future, even if he walked sideways in Linjiang City, no one dared to gossip. Alas, it would be nice if my own children had this blessing.

Xia Jin was not happy at all, but admired the clever methods of this old lady Xuanping.

Who said that this old lady was born in a general's door and acted rudely and simply, who was she in a hurry. Look at her attitude towards Mrs. Luo, she is angry and angry, although she doesn't have a good word, she treats her completely as a family member, which is to elevate Mrs. Luo's status. On the surface, shocking Luo Weitao and the favored Aunt Zhang was actually shocking everyone in Linjiang City.

As soon as Xia Qi came in, he used him as a topic to justify Mrs. Wang's name; Just now, I asked everyone to take care of his words, and directly announced the highest status of Xuanping Houfu in Linjiang City, and at the same time established an image of protecting my shortcomings - whoever helped me and treated me well, I will protect him as my own. Otherwise...... Think for yourself.

In this way, who in Linjiang City doesn't want to curry favor with her? If the Xuanping Houfu wants to do anything, there will be no opposition. They haven't been back here for decades, but this time, a few words have turned this place into their strong rear, and they have confirmed their status as a universal response.

This wrist is not admirable for Xia Jin.

"This is Xia Xiaolang's younger sister, right?" After saying those words, Mrs. Xuan Pinghou set her eyes on Xia Jin again.

"Xia Jin greets the old lady." Xia Jin hurriedly stepped forward and saluted obediently.

"Well, a good boy." Old Mrs. Xuanping looked Xia Jin up and down, nodded, didn't talk nonsense, turned her head and instructed a mother-in-law, "Take Miss Xia to Sister Yao and them, just say what I said, Miss Xia is here for the first time, and she is not familiar with this place, let her take good care of it, and don't give Miss Xia any grievances." ”

"Yes." The woman answered.

Old lady Xuanping turned her face again, and smiled lovingly at Xia Jin: "Sister Yao is my granddaughter, about the same age as you, she came from the capital on horseback yesterday, and now she is playing with a group of girls in the back garden, you follow this woman to find her." ”

"Yes." Xia Jin responded, gave another salute, turned around and retreated with his mother-in-law.

Xia Qi glanced at her worriedly, and when he saw that the eyes of the old lady Xuanping were turning to him, he hurriedly took his gaze back, and stood there with his eyes and nose and nose, looking like he was listening to the old lady Xuanpinghou's hair.

In fact, Xia Qi's cramped appearance is crooked, which is exactly how everyone should behave when the children of small families participate in the banquet.

You must know that the women in the house are all good at house fighting, and they have more eyes than ordinary people. If it was Xia Jin who wore men's clothes today instead of Xia Qi, her generous and calm appearance would inevitably arouse the suspicion of this group of women, suspecting that the Xia family had set up a bureau for Xuanping to wait for the old lady, and she had to send someone to find out what to do. Otherwise, which little family of ordinary people will have such a demeanor?

At that time, even if nothing can be found, Mrs. Xuan Pinghou is afraid that she will not accept Xia Jin's love anymore. What these people don't like the most is the scheming people, especially the scheming people who are much lower than them and have no chance to become partners.

So at this time, the old lady Xuanping Hou was extremely satisfied when she saw Xia Qi's cramped appearance. She turned her head and instructed Luo Qian: "Little Brother Xia, I'll leave it to you." Take him out into the garden and play with your boys, but don't be naughty. ”

Luo Qian agreed and retreated with Xia Qi.

After leaving the hospital, Luo Qian asked the person who led the way: "Who is here today?" ”

The man smiled and said, "There are the second and fourth sons of the prefect's family, and the eldest son of the same prefect's family...... and counted about a dozen names.

Luo Qian raised an eyebrow.

It seems that this old lady Xuanping is really supporting his mother.

When he saw the group of women in the hall just now, he didn't feel anything. After all, the eunuchs are still very disciplined. No matter how favored and capable the concubines are, no matter how background their mother's family has, they can't be on the stage, and they are not allowed to walk around to socialize instead of the main lady.

But the concubine is different. As long as they are capable, can read, and are good at talking, they can follow their father and grandmother to various occasions and make a wide range of contacts. After all, a capable concubine has taken the meritorious examination and become an official, and he can also get ahead, glorify his ancestors, and be much stronger than the incapable concubine. His father, Luo Weitao, is a good example.

Therefore, no matter who has a banquet in Linjiang City, as long as the status of the family is qualified, those sons and young ladies will be invited together, regardless of their concubines.

But in the name of the person reported just now, it can be clearly seen that the old lady Xuanping only invited her sister-in-law to the banquet this time, and there was no concubine in it.

It's like this on the boy's side, and it's almost the same if you want to come to the girl's side.

Walking to the outer garden, Luo Qian saw that the male guests present were indeed as he thought, and there was no concubine.

"Brother Qian, why are you here so late? Should you be punished for drinking, or should you be punished for getting under the table? A young man of seventeen or eighteen saw him coming, greeted him and smiled.

"It's okay to drink, as long as you drink all the wine you owe last time, I'll punish you, how about it?" Luo Qian responded.

Everyone laughed "boom", gathered around one by one, and asked him how he was doing, and he seemed to have a good relationship. (To be continued)
