"Old lady, please help your nephew and daughter-in-law!" You Shi ran in on tiptoe like a gust of wind, how could he still be gentle and dignified half a point before?

"Slow down, slow down, what's wrong with you?" The old lady hurriedly stopped her.

"Old lady......" You Shi knelt in front of Jia's mother, and was just about to speak, when he glanced at Qingwen beside him, and closed his mouth hesitantly.

Is this a private matter to discuss with the ancestors?

Qingwen, who has a lot of eyesight, got up with interest and said goodbye to Jia's mother.

"Old lady, Qingwen will go back first, and come back later."

The old lady waved her hand and asked the mandarin duck to send her out.

The mandarin duck sent Qingwen out of the courtyard and whispered: "You don't have to run again later, the old lady is afraid that her spirit will be even worse after Grandma Zhen's trouble." I will keep the deed of debt you wrote to the old lady, and I will find it out later and send it to you. ”

"Well, then it's troublesome Sister Mandarin Duck."

Qingwen originally had something to say to the old lady, so she had to put it off.

The mandarin duck smiled, didn't speak, and waved her hand to let her go back first.

About half an hour later, the mandarin duck really came to Tubi Villa.

Qingwen threw the deed she had brought into the brazier, and watching the flames flutter, her heart suddenly felt much lighter.

Perhaps, this is called "debt-free and light", right?

"The old lady asked me to ask you, what do you say to let the old lady 'rest assured', rest assured?" The mandarin duck whispered, "If you want the old lady to rest assured that Miss Lin will be handed over to you and taken out of the house to live in another courtyard, I advise you not to say it." ”

"Sister understands me so well?"

Qingwen smiled so much that her eyes curved into a crescent moon, "I don't hide my affairs from the old lady, and naturally I don't hide it from my sister." I have a restaurant, a workshop, and a grange, which can fully support me and Daiyu. What is Daiyu's situation in the house, my sister also knows, I don't want her to continue to send people to the fence. ”

"It's the old lady who agrees, for her sake, or doesn't want it? She is getting older and worse, and her spirit is getting worse and worse, so she just relies on Baoyu and Miss Lin to support her under her knees. The mandarin duck said worriedly.

"It was precisely because the old lady's spirit was getting worse and worse that I had to plan early."

Qingwen hesitated, "In case one day, the old lady ...... I'm afraid Daiyu and I won't be able to leave this house. ”

The mandarin duck sighed and said softly: "Miss Lin is in the house for a day, the old lady can last a day, if Miss Lin leaves the house, I am afraid that the old lady will ......."

Mandarin Duck is a loyal girl, and she thinks about Jia's mother, but Qingwen has to plan for herself and Daiyu.

She groaned for a long time, went into the back room and took out a small rectangular wooden box, and took out the Zhuzhu grass that Liu Xianglian had helped to find.

The grass had already dried up, and Qingwen had not touched it, just in case of emergency.

At this time, I picked a leaf, thought about it and picked another leaf, wrapped the two leaves in a clean handkerchief, and handed it to the mandarin duck preciously:

"This is the life-saving medicine I prepared for Daiyu, and I don't dare to move easily. Now look, the old lady needs it more urgently than she does. My sister took it back, took a piece and brewed it with boiling water, and gave it to the old lady as tea. It doesn't take much, and a leaf can be soaked for seven days. ”

"This is the Zhuzhu grass you used for Miss Lin back then?" The mandarin duck's eyes lit up and carefully held the handkerchief.

"It's the Zhuzhu grass, which Imperial Physician Wang has experienced, and it is an excellent medicine for replenishing qi and blood. With this leaf, the old lady should be a little healthier than before. ”

Qingwen said with a smile, "Another leaf for my sister to use, just drink it as tea, and protect my sister's skin like clotted fat and beautiful like a flower." ”

Qingwen ruthlessly took out the Zhuzhu grass, because she had to let the old lady live well, at least until she left Jiafu with Daiyu.

The mandarin duck looked at the handkerchief, his clear eyes became brighter, and the slight freckles on both cheeks seemed to be glittering.

She gently smacked Qingwen, lowered her voice and said, "Tell you something, do you know that Grandma Dongfu Zhen came over this afternoon, what is the matter with the old lady?" ”

"What's the matter?" Qingwen raised her eyebrows, appropriately showing her curiosity.

"Do you know that Grandpa Jiao in Dongfu? is the grandfather Jiao who was born and died with the two grandfathers of the country since he was a child. ”

The mandarin duck continued to suppress his voice and said, "Ago, Uncle Zhen bought a concubine from outside, I heard that she looks very charming, what kind of pet Uncle Zhen is, she stays in her house every day, she makes a fuss without being in vain or black, and everyone in the house walks around that courtyard."

Grandpa Jiao drank too much wine again, ran straight to the courtyard, and jumped to his feet to scold. Uncle Zhen, who was disturbed by the good things, was angry, and ordered someone to take him, tie him up in the stable, and wait until dawn to send him to Zhuangzi and lock him up.

That's a person who has made great contributions to the Jia family, how can he be treated like that? Grandma You is afraid that others will laugh at the Jia family's mistreatment of heroes, and she is afraid that others will ask the reason, or despise Uncle Zhen for being ridiculous, or laugh at the Jia family for not having a royal law, even if the slaves are not like them.

After a long time of persuasion, Uncle Zhen just didn't listen, and Grandma Zhen begged for the ancestor. In this mansion, Uncle Zhen is afraid that he will be able to listen to the old lady's words. ”

Oh? Qingwen was clear at the moment.

No wonder Jia Zhen temporarily put down Third Sister You's head, it turned out that she had just bought a newcomer.

As for what You is anxious about, I'm afraid it's not because I'm afraid of losing Jia Zhen or Jia Fu's face, right?

Jiao Da is a character who does not have much ink in "Dream of Red Mansions", and only appears positively once in the whole book.

But he is a pivotal figure to the Jia family. It can even be said that without Jiao Da, there would be no Jia family's century-old wealth and wealth.

Jiao Da is a domestic slave of the Jia family, and has been on the battlefield many times with the two grandfathers since he was a child. Speaking of which, he is a generation older than Jia's mother.

This house slave was loyal, and once carried out the master who was not the grandfather of the country at that time from the pile of dead people, and won his life; He was starving, but he stole something to feed his master; I didn't get water for two days, so I got half a bowl of water for my master to drink, and I drank horse urine myself.

Relying on these merits, the ancestors of the Jia family treated him differently when he was there, but he did not carry him until he died, and he was still a slave of the Jia family when he was old.

First, it may be because of his excessive credit, the so-called "high merit covers the master", and the grandfathers of the country are afraid that they will not be able to suppress him in the future.

Second, he came to Xu because he was short-tempered, loved to drink, and could not lead troops to war.

Now that the ancestors have passed away, there is not even one left in the second generation of the Jia family, and this old man is still alive and well.

He doesn't hate Grandpa Guo for not promoting him, and he is still loyal to the Jia family.

Because he couldn't get used to the losers of the descendants of the Jia family, he destroyed the century-old glory of the Jia family step by step, so he scolded people when he was drunk.

The Jia family is up and down, and there is nothing he doesn't dare to scold if it doesn't like it, and the angry head comes up, and even Jia Zhen, the head of the Jia family, dares to take it.

The scandal between Qin Keqing and Jia Zhen that day was first revealed by Grandpa Jiao.

And according to Qingwen's guess, the reason why he revealed that incident was the handwriting of Ning Guofu's housewife, You Shi.
