Chapter 145: The third master has appeared
Chunhui Garden, the mansion of Zhenguo Gong, is the residence of Mrs. Xiao, the mother of Zhenguo Gong.
The news of Xiao Ningyin's return to the house had already reached the ears of the old lady on the sickbed. She struggled to prop up her upper body and called Mama Li, who had taken care of her for many years: "Su Xin, help me pick up, I'll go see my hard-working great-granddaughter,"
Mama Li smiled and said, "Old lady, you drink the medicine first, and the old slave will take you to see the little lady." ”
"Good! Bring the medicine. The old lady pointed to the cabinet next to her and said, "Go to the storeroom and find out my exquisite jade kit and give it to Yin'er's child." ”
"Good! Old lady, old slave will go and find it. Mama Qin opened the cabinet and took out the key to go to the old lady's private vault to find something.
Mama Li came to the small kitchen of Chunhui Garden, where medicine was being fried on the stove, and when she looked around and saw that there was no one, she took out a paper bag from her sleeve pocket and poured a packet of white medicine powder into the boiling medicine jar.
Mama Li also stirred it with chopsticks a few times, and was relieved to see that the medicine powder had melted.
She threw the paper into the fire, and after a few struggles in the flames, it turned to ashes.
Mama Li strained the medicine and poured it into the bowl, and then carefully walked to the old lady's bedroom with the decoction.
She thought she was doing it seamlessly, but she didn't expect it all to fall into the eyes of the invisible Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin followed Mama Li into the house with a calm face, the old lady leaned on the pillow weakly, and Mama Qin was massaging her heart.
"Old lady, the little lady will definitely come to Chunhui Garden to see you in a while, why do you bother to toss your body?" Mama Qin persuaded the old lady distressedly: "Look at you now, even if you sit up, it's hard to sit up!" ”
"That's it, old lady, just listen to Sister Qin's advice!" Mama Li picked up the fan and slowly cooled the medicine fan: "Little Miss is still a junior after all, you will be blessed if you go to see her in person." ”
"Nonsense! Ahem, ahem! The old lady said two words and her throat itched and coughed, this cough could not be contained, coughing for about half an hour before stopping, she looked at Mama Li with a not very good face and said: "Su Xin, don't say such things nonsense in the future!" I'm going to give my great-granddaughter a blessing and longevity, where can I break her blessings! ”
Mama Li picked up the medicine bowl and walked to the old lady, and said with a smiling face: "The old lady is right, the old slave is wrong, and he will not say this again in the future." ”
But when she was three or four steps closer to the bed, she suddenly hit an invisible wall.
Immediately afterward, Mama Li felt a pair of big hands grab her hands, making her unable to move.
The medicine bowl was slowly pushed to Mama Li's mouth, she wanted to struggle but couldn't move at all, watching the poisoned medicine pour into her mouth.
"Woooooo Mama Li didn't want to swallow the poisonous decoction, but everything couldn't help her, as soon as the poison hit her stomach, she foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground and kept twitching, and after a while, Mama Li's face turned black.
"Ghost, ghost!" This scene scared the people waiting around the old lady into a ghost crying wolf.
Only the old lady watched all this calmly, and when she saw Mama Li's face turn dark, she suddenly smiled, but there was a little more desolation in this smile.
Mama Li is her dowry girl, she has been by her side since she was a child, and she is also one of the most trusted people by the old lady.
Over the years, Mama Li has been in charge of the old lady's food.
Especially in the past few years, the old lady's health has not been very good, and Mama Li has taken all the decoction matters on her.
Now, the old lady looked at Mama Li, whose face was blackened, and she didn't understand that there was a deadly poison in that bowl of medicine.
As for who this poison is for, do you need to say more?
It's just that I don't know who is guarding her as an old woman, the old lady looked at Mama Li, who was gradually losing her vitality.
Xiao Jin was afraid that Mama Li would die in the old lady's room, so she lifted one leg and threw Mama Li, who was about to die, into the yard.
The old housekeeper just walked into the yard, and Mama Li almost fell on him.
"Old lady, what's going on?" The old butler hurried into the house, and was relieved to see that the old lady was safe and sound.
The old lady coughed for a long time, and she had no strength to speak for a long time.
Mama Qin pointed to the room and stammered, "Yes, there are ghosts!" ”
Seeing that no one could explain things clearly, the old housekeeper couldn't help frowning, and said in a deep voice, "I'll go and invite Grandpa Guo to take a look." ”
Only then did Xiao Jin remember that he was still wearing an invisibility talisman, and he stood in front of the old butler and reached out to tear off the invisibility talisman.
"The third master has appeared!" The old housekeeper was shocked when he saw Xiao Jin, "Third Master, are you worried about the Zhenguo Mansion, come back and take a look?" ”
Xiao Jin:.
How can I say that I am manifested?
"Jin'er, come here, let grandmother see you." The old lady burst into tears in an instant, trembling and stretched out her hands to Xiao Jin: "You are so ruthless!" I haven't dreamed of my grandmother for the past three years, and now that I'm home, let my grandmother take a good look at you, and let my grandmother see if my good grandson has lost weight over there? ”
Xiao Jin was made to cry and laugh, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab the old lady's hand: "Grandmother, I'm here!" I'm fine, I'm back! ”
The old lady was surrounded by Xiao Jin's warm big hands, she stretched out her right hand and touched Xiao Jin's cheeks, chin, and ears, all of which were warm, so good!
The old lady glanced at Xiao Jin's shadow on the bed, and suddenly slapped Xiao Jin in the face.
"Smack!"
A crisp slap sounded, and a touch of red appeared on Xiao Jin's face, and he covered the red half of his face and sniffed aggrievedly: "Grandmother, I didn't steal the taro cake, why did you beat me?" ”
This sentence was said by Xiao Jin when he was beaten by the old lady when he was five years old, and only the grandparents and grandchildren knew about it.
"My Jin'er!" The old lady remembered the past, and she didn't know where the strength came from, so she suddenly cried loudly: "You are finally willing to come back to see me!" Why didn't you tell your grandmother when you were fine? Why hide it from your grandmother? Can grandmother still say it? Woo woo woo ~ "
The old butler watched this scene dumbfounded, he boldly took two steps forward and reached out to touch Xiao Jin's chin.
"There is a jaw! The third master is not dead! The old butler looked surprised.
Xiao Jin looked back at the old butler helplessly, lifted his brocade robe, revealing a pair of feet wearing deerskin boots, and teased: "I still have feet!" ”
"Hey, hey~" The old housekeeper laughed and cried: "The third master is back safe and sound, and the Zhenguo Mansion will get better and better." ”
"Yes, yes." The old lady choked up and said, "Our Zhenguo Mansion will definitely get better and better." ”
Xiao Jin turned back to the old housekeeper Xiao Hong and said, "Uncle Hong, when you go to the living room, you have to pretend to be very sad and tell everyone that your grandmother is not good!" ”
"W-not very good?" The old housekeeper felt that the old lady's health was not very good, and would it be even more detrimental to the old lady to say this.
Xiao Jin patted the old butler on the shoulder: "Go, Uncle Hong!" I promise that in a moment my grandmother will be alive and well. ”
"Yes, the old slave will do it." Seeing that Xiao Jin insisted, the old housekeeper didn't say anything more.
