Chapter 88: Head of the Family
Xin Nianchou said: "That's what I said. But my sister really has no appetite. I asked Li Zhi today and said that she has been forced to eat something for the past two days and her stomach hurts badly. Since it hurts, there must be something wrong with her. Why don't you ask a doctor?
Why can’t we all diagnose it?”
Aunt Gu also said worriedly: "Who says it's not the case? If this continues, I think the princess herself doesn't want to live. When she talks to us today, she will say that life is worse than death."
Gu Changting sighed: "Feng Rong has been weak and sick since she was a child. In her words, she has been taking medicine since she could eat. After so many years, she is actually a person trained by medicine. As the saying goes, medicine is three parts poisonous. Her symptoms are...
How could I know that the residual poison left in the body for more than ten years is acting up? Tomorrow I will go to the imperial hospital in person and ask two imperial doctors who are best at detoxifying to come and take a look."
Xin Nian's eyes lit up and he said hurriedly: "This is also a direction. It's still you. After all, you are walking outside and know some stories about rivers and lakes. I have never thought about poison. In this case, you can go and treat me immediately after eating.
, it’s better to be an hour earlier, what if something delays you tomorrow?”
Gu Changting said helplessly: "I just returned to Beijing, and I haven't gone to report to the emperor yet. I thought I would come back to see my mother and your mothers first. Unexpectedly, I heard about Yaya, the sixth child, as soon as I entered the house. After all,
How did it happen? How could Hao Duan Duan fall into the water? Where are the slaves around him? Isn't there anyone following him?"
"Don't be anxious, listen to me slowly."
Xin Nian explained the matter again, and finally said: "Chun Yu made an unintentional mistake and was deceived. Even so, I also fined her three months' monthly payment. I want to kill the women in the garden to scare the monkeys, so
They all were driven to Zhuangzi, and then the government bought a group of victims who had fled to Beijing from Renyazi. Although they looked uneven, I think the servants in the garden were mostly capable, and these people did the most tiring farm work.
That's no big deal, let alone the work in the garden. As for those exotic flowers and plants, of course there are gardeners taking care of them, and they have nothing to do with them."
Gu Changting nodded slowly. Here Gu Auntie smiled and said: "They say that new clothes are not as good as old clothes. Why do I feel that these new clothes are much easier to use than the original ones? They are all kind-hearted and not very articulate, but
They are warm-hearted and easy-going in speech. Cattail tells them to do something without any hesitation, and their hands and feet are very agile."
Gu Changting said with a smile: "This is an oversight on our part as masters. Those slaves have been in this mansion for many years and have been entangled with each other. How can they not cause trouble? If they get any more authority, they will become even more domineering and wait for the master to do so.
We don’t even care about them, we should have punished them a long time ago and also served as a warning to others.”
"Your Majesty is right. Anyway, I feel that the atmosphere in the garden has changed since the change of people. But as a result, Sister Xin has offended a lot of people. When someone starts gossiping in front of you, you
You have to make the decision for Sister Xin."
"Haha, it's obvious that you two are good sisters. Am I the kind of person who doesn't distinguish between right and wrong?"
Gu Changting laughed. While he was talking, someone came from the kitchen and asked if food was served. The second young master Gu Yuchen also came over there, and a few people came to the dining room to sit down. Aunt Qin is weak, so the two of them don't come here to eat recently.
Xin Nian saw a bowl of elbow stewed ham on the table. After taking a bite, he felt it was soft and delicious, so he said to Xinghua: "There are a lot of meat dishes on the table. The third girl likes this the most. You can bring it to her and Aunt Qin."
Eat. This is enough for us."
Xinghua agreed "yes", but didn't move. She secretly looked at Gu Changting's face and said lightly: "Didn't you hear what my aunt said? Why don't you do it?"
"yes."
Xinghua then stepped forward, put a large bowl of ham in the food box, and carried it away. Here Xin Nian rolled his eyes at Gu Changting and said leisurely: "Your Majesty is so majestic. Xinghua and I have been together for so many years, and now I want to see
What's the meaning of your eyes?"
Gu Changting shrugged: "Ask me? That's your girl, why didn't you ask her? You'll run against me whenever you have time. I'll offend whomever."
Gu Changting was a free and uninhibited person, and there was no rule at the dinner table about eating and talking. They chatted and laughed after lunch. Gu Changting had to go to the palace, so he left in a hurry. Then Aunt Gu also took Gu Yuchen and left.
It wasn't until there was no one in the room that Chunyu asked Xin Nian: "Why didn't my aunt tell the prince? It was obvious that our young master and girl had been tricked when they fell into the water. If you don't tell me, then grandma
Once we file a complaint, our methods will become cruel."
Xin Nian glanced at her and said amusedly: "Do you think the prince is you and you have a string in your head? I just need to tell him exactly what happened. Do you think he can't think of any doubts in it? It depends on whether he thinks about it or not."
Chun Yu blinked twice: "Auntie, what do you mean? The prince is actually as clear as a mirror in his heart?"
"Absolutely." Xin Nian nodded: "There are some things that I cannot say, otherwise it will be superfluous and not beautiful."
"I understand." Chunyu nodded: "It's just aunt, what if I just let the matter go by being so confused?"
Xin Nian blinked twice, shook his head and said, "He cares so much about Yaya, the Sixth Son, and he won't just let this go. Grandma's concubine, I don't think she should think about it anymore."
"Ah? Concubine?" Chunye said in surprise: "Grandma has been showing off for a long time. I heard that the servants in their courtyard secretly call her concubine. Even if I punish grandma with a grounding, I won't deny her this.
Concubine, right? I can’t explain it to the concubine.”
Xin Nian snorted coldly: "No? Why not? She just lost her position as concubine, while Liu Zai and Yaya almost lost their lives. Grounded? How can that satisfy the hatred in my heart?"
Chun Yu whispered: "Then...what if Master Yi just...just wants to pretend to be ignorant and invite grandma to be a concubine?"
Before he finished speaking, his master stood up and clenched his teeth and said, "He really doesn't even have this kind of affection, so I'm going to have a good talk with him."
"Well……"
Chunyu stared at her toes, mocking her eyes, and said like a mosquito: "Doesn't that mean...some words that my aunt said were superfluous and not beautiful?"
Xin Nian:......
******************
"Yesterday, when the prince came back, he first went to Qingliangyuan. Then he met Aunt Xin on the way. For some reason, he changed his mind and went to the princess. He had lunch at Qingliangyuan at noon, went to the palace in the afternoon, and came back in the evening.
Then I went to pay my respects to the dowager, and after having dinner at the dowager’s place, I went to the princess again..."
Guizhi didn't wait for the report to be finished, and saw Mr. Liao sitting up from the couch, eyebrows raised, and said angrily: "What do you mean? I've already visited once, but it's not enough? I have to go there in the evening?"
Did you spend the night there?"
