"His mother?" Xia Jin was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, the mother that Shu Shi said was naturally Su Muxian's mother-in-law, Mrs. Wu Anhou, who was not dead, spoiled her young son, and sent someone to hunt down and kill her eldest son.

His mother is simply crazy. Even the old lady of the Xia family can tolerate Xia Zhengqian, the son who is not her own and is suspected of being a rival in love. Even if he was treated harshly, he was not poisoned and killed. But Mrs. Wu'an waited, it seemed that her eldest son would not die, and she would not be at ease.

"But didn't she follow her youngest son to Qiongzhou? How did you get back? Xia Jin asked strangely.

"Her youngest son died. He got sick in the middle of the way, and died of illness. She came back from a coffin. Shu said, with a complicated expression on his face.

This kind woman probably sympathized with Mrs. Wu Anhou, but also felt that she was unreasonable.

"Dead?" Xia Jin felt badly along.

Mrs. Wu'an Hou's youngest son died, and the youngest son she loved in every way and regarded as the only reliance died, so how would she treat Su Muxian? At the beginning, because there was a Taoist fortune teller and said that Su Mu was a widow, she sent him to the temple. But now that Su Muxian is back, her youngest son is dead. She will definitely settle this account on Su Muxian's head, right? And without spiritual sustenance, if she was disheartened and had the will to die, it was estimated that she would plan to torture Su Muxian in every possible way before she would give up. According to her behavior of sending people to hunt down and kill her own son, this is entirely possible. Su Mu is idle because of filial piety, and he can't do anything with her, so won't he have to live in dire straits in the future?

Shu Shi obviously also figured this out, and said to Xia Jin: "Sister Jin, you refused to marry Luo Gongzi for the sake of Mrs. Luo. Now compared to it, Mrs. Luo is good. At least she is good to her son. Even if she didn't agree with your family affairs at the beginning, it was for her son, hoping that he could marry a famous lady and get some help. Now that your identity has come up, it's too late for her to slap you, and she will never dare to treat you badly. You really want to get married, if you don't consider your brother's classmate. Then marry Mr. Luo. Su Gongzi's side...... He's that mother. When I think about it, I'm scared that one day I'll kill my whole family with a single pill. No matter how prominent his identity is, no matter how good he is. I can't get married. ”

Xia Jin hesitated for a moment, and replied vaguely: "Let's see." ”

It's not that her feelings are shaken again at this moment. It's that she really can't tell how Su Muxian will treat his biological mother. I think that at the beginning, Xia Zhengqian faced Mrs. Xia, even though he knew that Mrs. Xia hated him. And they treated him very badly, and treated his wife and children harshly. Even because of the old lady, he lost two children who were still in the womb, and he couldn't be ruthless to the old lady, as long as the old lady showed a little concern for him. He would show a little admiration. If it weren't for the old lady who forced her too hard, coupled with Xia Jin's design, she would have been aggrieved in the Xia family. He would not have proposed a separation.

In addition to the cold and desperate nature of Mrs. Wu'an Hou, the nature of mother and child is indelible. Su Muxian, who has never felt mother's love since he was a child. I must also desire my mother's love in my heart. Now the old lady of Wu'an Hou has no support, and wants to coax Su Muxian back; Or pretending to change his mind, coaxing Su Muxian to relax his vigilance, and then drugged him to death, so as to avenge his youngest son, think that Su Muxian, who can distinguish between right and wrong and deal with things decisively, but is still pure-hearted, can't resist his mother's "love" and gentle pettiness, right?

Xia Jin really has no confidence in the natural blood and family relationship between mother and son.

Seeing that her daughter was not determined to marry Su Muxian, Shu was very satisfied. She knew that her daughter seemed to be cold, but she really valued love and righteousness. Otherwise, it would not have been because Luo Qian went to the border at the beginning, she had clearly made up her mind not to marry him, and she refused to discuss marriage, so she had to wait for him to come back. This kind of thing, don't be in a hurry, take your time.

Thinking about when to ask Xia Qi to bring his classmates back for Xia Jin to take a look, Shu Shi changed the topic and carefully asked about Xia Jin's food, clothing, housing and transportation at the border.

Knowing that Xia Jin had won the title of county lord, and he also had a food estate, and he was a princess honor guard, his status was two points higher than that of the county lord of Jianing, who was born in the royal family, and this girl was not engaged yet, the noblewomen in the capital immediately took action. What's more, he has a unique vision, as early as before Xia Jin came back, he had frequently approached Shu Shi at various banquets and made friends with her. So less than two hours after Xia Jin returned home, countless people sent gifts to congratulate the Shao family. What's more, they came in person to congratulate them in person, revealing the intention of getting married.

No, Xia Jin had just washed up when he returned to the room, and was lying on the couch to let the maid wipe her hair, someone came to report, saying that Mrs. Shao and Shu's people were coming and going, and it was very lively. Now the old lady and the eldest lady of Zheng Guogong's family are sitting in the hall of the main courtyard, if Xia Jin is convenient here, he will go over.

The maid also specially brought the words of the old lady Shao: "The old lady said that she knew that the girl had come back from afar, she was tired and needed to rest, but the Zheng family had a relationship with the Shao family more than 30 years ago, and after the Shao family returned to Beijing, they did not have high eyebrows and low eyes, and they thought that the old lady was not valued by the emperor, so they came to visit as soon as possible." Now the old lady of his family said that she wanted to see you, but the old lady did not give up, and said that if it was convenient for the girl, she would go and see you; If she is really tired, then there is no need to be reluctant, and she will take the girl to Zheng Guogong's mansion to thank her in a few days. ”

Although it was a long journey, Xia Jin stayed in the carriage all the time, sleeping longer than waking up, and his life was much more leisurely than when he was at the border pass. As for the bumps on the road, it was nothing to her. So she really didn't feel tired at this time. She didn't want to go to other people's houses in a few days to be a guest, with a smile on her face, saying something about entertainment without oil and salt, which was extremely boring.

She instructed Poria to comb her hair, changed into her clothes, stood up and said, "Let's go, then we will meet." ”

Calamus and mint are both born in the family, and there is a mother in the house. They worked hard, waited for Xia Jin to go to the border, and didn't see their parents for half a year, and as soon as they came back, Xia Jin gave them a very generous reward and took half a month's vacation. Now waiting by her side are second-class maids such as Poria and bellflower.

As soon as I entered the courtyard of Mrs. Shao, I heard laughter and laughter in the hall, which was so lively. The maid guarding the door saw Xia Jin coming from a distance, so she hurried back to the house to report. When Xia Jin stepped into the threshold, she saw a group of people standing up, as if to welcome her. She knew that this was because of her status as the county lord, although the old lady Zheng Guo had a respected status, but in front of her royal status, she still did not dare to abolish the courtesy, at least in the first meeting or formal occasion, she needed to pretend.

In order not to be called that she was frivolous and impolite, she hurriedly showed a look of panic on her face, looked at Mrs. Shao at a loss, and called softly: "Grandmother." ”

"Sister Jin, you're here." Old Madam Shao stepped forward with a smile, took Xia Jin's hand, and introduced to a fifty-year-old woman standing near her, "This is my sister." You know about our family, because her father was adopted by the family surnamed Xia when she was a child, in order to thank the Xia family's adoptive parents for their kindness, we didn't let them take the surname back to Shao. Sister Jin is still surnamed Xia, and her single name is a single name. ”

As he spoke, he said to Xia Jin: "This is Mrs. Zheng Guogong." ”

Before Xia Jin could make a move, the old lady of Zheng Guo Gong saluted Xia Jin and said, "The Lin family of Zheng Guogong's mansion has seen the county lord of Yong'an. ”

Xia Jin hurriedly turned sideways, avoided her salute, and said, "You are an elder, how dare you accept your gift?" ”

Old Madam Shao also smiled and said, "Isn't it? I said that although this child has been rewarded by the emperor, he is young and blessed, and he can't stand your courtesy. That's not going to happen in the future. As he spoke, he pointed to a woman in her thirties next to her, "This is Duchess Zheng Guo." ”

After everyone saw the salute and sat down again, Mrs. Zheng Guogong couldn't stop praising Xia Jinlai: "Sister Jin is really good-looking, knowledgeable, and compassionate. It's rare to be so capable, and learn good medical skills. He stretched out his wrist again and said, "My heart often feels stuffy." Since Sister Jin has such good medical skills, I would like to take a blessing and bother Sister Jin to take a look. ”

Xia Jin had to stand up and walk over to check her pulse. When she withdrew her hand, her face was a little solemn: "Is the old lady Zheng Guo not only depressed, but sometimes she still feels spicy pain there?" ”

"Exactly." Because she usually feels just a little bit and is not very uncomfortable, Mrs. Zheng Guogong didn't take it seriously. When I saw Xia Jin, I didn't have a lot to say, so I used the medical treatment to pull the relationship and take the opportunity to praise her. It can be seen that Xia Jin's expression is solemn, she is scared in her heart, and asks; "I don't know what it is?"

"The old lady is suffering from heart disease." Xia Jin said.

Seeing that although the faces of the old lady Zheng Guo and the old lady Zheng Guo changed, there were still doubts in their eyes, and they didn't seem to understand what the disease was preventing. However, it is no wonder that although heart disease is relatively common, there were no various instruments in ancient times, and there was no very accurate understanding before the onset of the disease, and it was too late to wait for the onset of the disease. The two ladies of the Zheng Guogong Mansion, the old and the young, do not have a deep understanding of this disease, but they can understand it.

What's more, this is still coronary heart disease.

Xia Jin had no choice but to say: "The old lady's illness is usually not much, but when she starts to get sick, she can kill people instantly." So always be on the lookout anyway. ”

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's faces changed dramatically.

"So, what about that?" Duchess Zheng asked nervously.

"I'll prescribe a prescription, and the old lady will take it for a few days. I'll show you again in a few days. Xia Jin said.

"Then thank you Sister Jin." Duchess Zheng Guo said gratefully.

Although Xia Jin cured the plague that the imperial doctors had not cured, her reputation was outstanding, and she was rewarded by the emperor, she was too young, and the Duchess of Zheng Guo would still be suspicious of her medical skills. thanked Xia Jin in his mouth, and made up his mind in his heart to find a familiar imperial doctor in the palace to take a good look and confirm.
