Chapter 492: Miss Lu
Xun Xiang asked, "What's wrong with Han'er, is it the old ancestor who is not good again?" β
Qiu Yuhan shook his head and said, "The ancestor is okay, it's Daddy, he was injured in a fall......
As he spoke, he began to cry again.
She was so scared that she didn't know who to turn to except for her cousin.
Shi's mother explained, "Yesterday, the prince sent someone back to say that he was injured when he fell off a cliff when he encountered an avalanche on the road. At first, I didn't care, and I rested at the post station for two days and continued to walk, but I didn't know that my condition worsened after arriving in Huizhou. He had to stay behind to recuperate and not be able to return home on time. β
Xun Xiang's heart rose again. That unlucky guy doesn't want to get tetanus, there is no good medicine in this day and age. That person has his own "evil spirit", don't "evil" himself into it......
Qiu Yuhan pouted again and asked, "Will my father die?" β
Xun Xiang comforted, "No." β
Ding Zhao was also taken aback and asked, "My father has been with Master Qiu all the way, is there anything wrong with his old man?" β
Mother Shi said, "The person who came back to report the news specifically said that Uncle Ding is fine, and he has gone to Jiaodong separately from my family's son." β
Xun Xiang coaxed the little girl softly and left her for dinner.
After the meal, the little girl still didn't leave, Xun Xiang took her and Ding Zhen to Zixuan to rest.
The golden sunlight shone through the courtyard, and a few red plum trees bloomed. If you look closely, the treetops of the lilac trees have pulled out a light green.
The house was still as spotless as she had been when she was, and the dark fragrance was floating.
Ding Zhao and Zhang would occasionally come to sit and sit, and Zhang would personally clean up the place. When Ding Zhuang was at home, he took care of the flowers and plants in the small yard.
Even if she lived in the princess's mansion for more than a year, Xun Xiang occasionally woke up and felt that the place where she lived was Zixuan.
She looked at Zhuxuan not far away, but unfortunately her grandfather was not there.
Miss him so much!
Little girl Qiu went to rest on the couch, Xun Xiang and Ding Zhen sat in the West House and whispered.
Ding Erfu's fiancΓ©e's family also lives in Hexian County and is more familiar with Ding Shan's family.
Ding Zhen said with a smile, "I heard from the second rich brother that Miss Lu's family will marry a house in the county town, and the dowry will add up to six or seven hundred taels of silver." The second rich brother doesn't want to live in the bridal room, and is ready to rent a courtyard. The yard is well watched, two streets away from my house.
He is usually very frugal, saying that Sister Lu's dowry is rich, and the dowry should not be too shabby. He has more than two hundred taels of silver, and he is to use one hundred taels for the dowry......"
Xun Xiang said with a smile, "If the Wang family knew that the second rich brother used so much silver for the dowry, he would be distressed to death." β
Ding Zhen laughed, her eyes crooked.
"Sister Lu won't be afraid of the Wang family. They don't live together, and if they live together, the Wang family will definitely not be able to get Sister Lu. Sister Lu is very good at fighting, and she is spicy, I heard that her brother and sister-in-law are afraid of her, and the neighbors dare not provoke her......
"Hehe, in fact, Sister Lu is very good, she loves to talk and laugh, and she has no bad intentions, she belongs to the person who you don't mess with her, she won't mess with you. I can see that the second rich brother is very satisfied with her.
Xun Xiang has already heard of Miss Lu's "prestige". Ding Erfu is not stupid, he likes her so much, which shows that Miss Lu has her merits.
Although Ding Erfu is poor now, he has ambition and the help of his family-in-law and relatives, and his future is not bad.
When Ding Sifu and Gong shopkeeper talked about the fat powder shop, Xun Xiang specially observed Ding Erfu. He didn't have any thoughts that he shouldn't have, and he was really happy for his brother.
Not thinking about the things of brothers and sisters, this is the virtue that should be had. But as the grandson of Ding Xia and Ding Li, the son of Ding Youcai and Wang, it is rare to have this kind of character.
After the next day, the guests left one after another.
Qiu Yuhan didn't want to leave yet, so he was forcibly carried away by Shi's mother.
In the evening, Ding Zhao took Xun Xiang to a room and handed her the deed of the business house sent by Dong Yi. The shopkeeper was trained by Ding Zhao before, and he went over to take over a few months ago......
The commercial bank is not big, and it does foreign trade, not only selling imported goods, but also selling Dali commodities to foreigners, making an annual profit of about 20,000 or 30,000 taels of silver.
In order not to make people suspicious, the silver will be transferred to Xun Xiang every year, and the name of the deed will be replaced by her after two years.
Ding Zhao also had some speculation about Dong Yiqi and his wife, and sighed, "Looking at my cousin-in-law's illness, the days are not long." Alas, such good two people, it's really reluctant. β
Xun Xiang said, "This day will come sooner or later, what we can do is to wish them peace and joy in another land, and treat Brother Dong as a family ......."
Before Xunxiang, he also wanted to implement the steelmaking process after the year, turning "Baotie" into "steel". But now it's an eventful time, so I have to push it back.
In the evening, it was still Zhang who came to Zixuan to accompany Xun Xiang.
Xun Xiang sighed with emotion, when she was a child, she wanted to sleep in a separate bed with Zhang and Ding Zhao every day, and now she especially likes this mother to accompany her and talk about herself.
At the end of the next day, Xun Xiang left Dingfu and went to Taofu.
She was directly invited to the outer study, Xun Juma had already come, and several Tao family men were also here.
The father and daughter knelt down and kowtowed, solemnly thanking the teacher for his teachings.
Master Tao said with a smile, "Father and daughter worship the same teacher, and the three masters and apprentices are for everyone, which has become a great conversation." β
After that, the men discussed their knowledge in the study, and Xun Xiang went to the old lady's yard.
Tao Jing was waiting at the door, and when she saw Xun Xiang, she smiled and said, "My grandmother has been looking forward to it." β
There were seven women sitting in the room, surrounded by jewels.
The old lady was in good health, took Xun Xiang's hand and smiled, "I haven't seen Xiangxiang for a long time, so I think about it tightly." Let the old woman take a closer look, ouch, taller, thinner ......"
At the beginning of noon, Mrs. Sun and Sun Youmu suddenly came.
Although Mrs. Sun was wearing plain clothes and did not apply powder, she had a good complexion and was obviously fat, and she was like two women who were like ashes before.
When her daughter's grandson suddenly came home, the old lady was very happy.
She pulled Sun Youmu and asked, "Take a break today?" β
Sun Youmu smiled and said, "My colleague had something to do a few days later, and he changed shifts with me." He said to Xun Xiang again, "The county lord is also here, it's a coincidence." β
Xun Xiang felt that it was not a coincidence, but Sun and Mu came to see her. Mrs. Sun came to cooperate with him, it should be the matter of the Sun Mansion.
It just so happened that she had something to say to him.
The New Year has passed, and the temperature has warmed up.
Mrs. Dong's illness is getting worse and worse, and the Dong Mansion has already begun to prepare for the future.
Zhang, Grandma Xun, and Mrs. Wang went to see it almost every day. When they went, they let Mi Hongmian go back to rest.
Xun Xiang goes every two days.
She wanted to go every day, but Dongyang didn't allow it, saying that she was still a child and was afraid of being sick, so she asked Mama Wei to visit her every day.
All the people who visited the patient were not allowed to have close contact with Mrs. Dong, but only glanced at the door and listened to Mi Hongmian or Zhang's and others introduce their condition in the hall.
The imperial doctor and doctor in front of Mrs. Dong's bed were uninterrupted, and Xun Xiang never had the opportunity to live in Dong's house or have close contact with Mrs. Dong.
Although she knew that Mrs. Dong was not really dead, the farewell was real and she was also sad.
