Chapter Twenty-Eight: Returning Home

"Oh?" Xiao Yicheng sneered and asked, "Tell me, what am I happy about?" ”

Cangyue replied: "If she is the little princess of Beiliang, the second son can't keep her, but the second son already has a good impression of the fourth aunt, so he is naturally reluctant to start." ”

"So the subordinates are happy for the second son, you finally don't have to be embarrassed now."

"What does it mean to have a good feeling?"

Xiao Yicheng's face turned blue suddenly, and he said seriously: "Cangyue, she is the fourth aunt of the Hou Mansion, and some things must not be said nonsense." ”

Cangyue saw Xiao Yicheng's face change suddenly, and laughed repeatedly: "The second son is a little restless, and his subordinates can see that the second son has gone from disliking the fourth aunt to now admiring her, isn't this change just a good impression?" ”

Xiao Yicheng was stunned when he heard this, and then seemed to have finally found a reasonable explanation, "You are right, she has very good medical skills, and she is a person who can open her mind, which is really surprising." ”

"But the word favor, don't mention it easily."

Cangyue knew Xiao Yicheng's worries, and said, "Yes, my subordinates remember." ”

Xiao Yicheng waved his hand at Cangyue and motioned for him to step back.

Not long after, Jiang Juan took a bowl of soup and medicine, and said softly: "Second son, your medicine is cured." ”

Xiao Yicheng turned around and suddenly felt that Jiang Juan seemed to be becoming more and more pleasing to the eye.

Jiang Juan saw that Xiao Yicheng was distracted, so he shook his hand at him, and said, "Second son? ”

Xiao Yicheng hurriedly came back to his senses, picked up the bowl and drank it all, until Jiang Juan was about to leave, he suddenly stopped, "Fourth aunt, wait." ”

"Is there something wrong with the second son?"

Jiang Juan stopped and looked back, only to see Xiao Yicheng take a book from the bookshelf and hand it to her, saying, "You said that you want to learn the art of war, I thought about it and felt that you don't have to learn these, but you can look at books related to strategy." ”

"I've picked and chosen, and I think this book is a good fit for you."

Jiang Wan was stunned and deeply surprised, "Didn't the second prince say that there was no need for this?" Why did you suddenly change your mind? ”

Xiao Yicheng replied: "Because I think you're right, people can't always expect others to protect them, a woman with no identity background, it's not a bad thing to learn some strategy, as long as you don't use it in crooked ways." ”

Jiang Juan looked at him blankly, and almost touched Xiao Yicheng's forehead to see if he was sick and had a bad brain.

"Is that really what the second son thinks?"

Xiao Yicheng frowned slightly, and asked in a deep voice: "You think I seem to be telling a lie?" ”

"If you think there's a deception, then I'll take back what I just said."

After he finished speaking, he was going to grab the book in Jiang Juan's hand.

Jiang Juan hurriedly hid his hand behind his back and said with a smile: "The gentleman's words are difficult to chase, and the second son's words come out of his mouth, where is there any reason to take it back?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Yicheng happened to come up to Jiang Juan, and his arm fell between Jiang Juan's eyebrows.

Xiao Yicheng's arm stiffened, it was the first time he looked at Jiang Xuan's eyebrows at such a close distance, and his eyes were soft and bright, so that people's hearts moved.

Xiao Yicheng's arm froze slightly, then withdrew suddenly, and said calmly: "You are obviously a geisha, but you are proficient in medical skills, you are obviously good at practicing medicine and diagnosing diseases, but you want to learn strategies." ”

"Fourth aunt, which one is the most real you?"

Jiang Juan flipped the pages of the book, and his eyes did not hide the joy in his heart.

The second son temporarily changed his mind, just because he found out that she had nothing to do with the little princess of Beiliang.

She knew that Yun Niang was negligent in details, and it was useless to ask her about these things.

Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows slightly, the more she thought about it, the happier she became, and her voice couldn't help but raise lightly.

"Playing music is a livelihood skill taught to me by Yun Niang, and practicing medicine and diagnosing diseases is a necessary skill for me to maintain my body, as for the art of war, I just don't want to retreat when I encounter trouble after returning to Beijing."

"Therefore, what the second son said is all the real me."

Xiao Yicheng raised his eyebrows, "Really?" The fourth aunt is really a surprise. ”

"I hope you don't let me down when I go home this time."

Jiang Juan nodded and said seriously: "Second son, don't worry, I will." ”

Sure enough, a few days later, when the ship arrived in the capital, Xiao Yicheng's illness was completely cured.

Although Xiao Yicheng had expected it, he was still amazed by this result.

After getting off the boat, they did not rush back to the house, but settled the girls as soon as possible, and summarized the medicinal materials, and when everything was taken care of, the two of them walked to the Hou Mansion.

After the birthday banquet, the Hou Mansion has always fallen into the rumors related to Jiang Juan, the old lady can't afford to be ill because of this, everyone in the mansion is anxious and impatient, and everyone scolds Jiang Juan miserably.

"Doctor, how is the old lady?"

In the room, Mrs. Hou Xu was standing next to the doctor, asking anxiously.

The doctor lowered his eyes and pondered for a long time, before he slowly shook his head, got up and sighed: "The old lady's blood is about to run out, and it is the limit that she can last until now, Mrs. Song is still ready to take care of the future!" ”

Prepare for the future......

Hearing this, the faces of several people instantly stiffened, and there was a dead silence in the room.

It took a few moments before someone began to whisper.

"Why can't it be done so soon, the second son hasn't come back yet!"

"It's all Aunt Jiang's fault, she not only made the Hou Mansion lose face, but also made the old lady's life hang by a thread, I really want to skin her alive."

"If you want me to say, Aunt Jiang is shameless, throwing her into the red boat will fulfill her, she should be chopped up and fed to the dogs."

"Who's to say it's not?"

“……”

"Shut up!"

Xu Shi snorted sharply, and in a blink of an eye, he asked the doctor urgently with teary eyes: "Doctor, can you think of another way to let the old lady hold on a little longer?" ”

"Right now, the Hou Ye has not returned from an errand, and the second son is on his way back, I can't let her old man not even see them for the last time!"

The doctor was unmoved, he kept a calm face, shook his head again and again and sighed: "Mrs. Song, the old man has done his best, please mourn." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he got up and left.

Xu Shi suddenly felt like a thunderbolt from the sky, her brain suddenly dizzy, and her whole person staggered, almost crooked.

"Mother......

Seeing this, Song Huaijin hurriedly supported her, looking panicked.

The person behind him also looked panicked.

Xu Shi glanced at the old lady on the bed with a paper-like face, and his heart was instantly tightened.

"The old lady is no longer good, her body has always been strong, why can't she?"

The more Xu Shi spoke, the more sad he became, and finally couldn't help but lie on Song Huaijin's shoulder and cry.

The second aunt and the third aunt looked at each other, and had to follow the children to comfort each other.

Just as a group of people were in grief, the sound of a small servant suddenly came from outside the door.

"Big lady, the second son is back!"

When several people heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up, and Xu hurriedly stood up and ran out of the room in surprise.

"Great, the second son has finally rushed back!"

But as soon as the words fell, Xu saw that Xiao Yicheng was still followed by Jiang Juan, she looked stunned, and said coldly: "Aunt Jiang, how can you ......?"
