Qi's mother said happily: "My mother will send someone to wait at the pier. If we arrive, we will wait for your father to take a rest and then our whole family will visit Sheng Mansion together."
"Shengfu?"
"Zhuang Xuexue worked as a teacher in the Sheng family. After arriving in the capital, he lived in the Sheng family. Speaking of the Sheng family, they are actually distant relatives of ours."
Qi's mother 'Bala Bala' explained the relationship between the two families. Simply put, it is the natal family of Wang Ruofo, the eldest wife of Sheng Hong, the head of the Sheng family. A girl married into the Qi family, so theoretically, he should call Mrs. Wang 'Aunt' refers to Sheng Hong as uncle.
"By the way, Xuan'er sent someone to send a message yesterday, asking you to have time to go there in the next two days."
Wang Lidong nodded.
The Xuan'er mentioned by Qi's mother is his half-friend and cousin, Qi Xuan.
He had traveled back in time, and the two of them had only met once. During the Chinese New Year, his family and his uncle's family had a meal together. Before they could even exchange a few words, his cousin began to have cramps, and he was sent back He went to the room. Later, he went there once, but he didn't meet him. He heard that his condition was a bit serious and it was not convenient to see people.
After Wang Lidong and Qi's mother chatted for a few more words, they left and returned to their own yard.
After putting on the big cloak, I was about to go out to my cousin's house. After thinking about it, I walked to the bookshelf and rummaged around. I found that the drill chart of the '18-style Tai Chi health-preserving boxing' I was looking for was missing. "Xia Zhu, have you seen me?" See '18-style Tai Chi health-preserving boxing'?"
Xia Zhudao nodded and said:
"This book is not on the shelf."
"where?"
"Master, wait a minute, I'll get it." Xia Zhu ran into Buwei's room with a "Teng Teng Teng", and then ran back with a "Teng Teng Teng".
Seeing the water ripples appearing on the wooden floor that Xia Zhu had stepped on, Wang Lidong regretted a little. He would not have taught the two maids martial arts if he had known it. Since he started practicing martial arts, his appetite has doubled and his figure has become stronger. .
He took the booklet handed to him, which was the map he had recorded himself.
"Why don't you take this thing?"
This Tai Chi book, which is purely for health care, is most suitable for old men and women.
Xia Zhu looked around, then leaned closer and whispered: "Why don't you copy it and give it to Di He'er. I heard that Di He'er's eldest brother wants to practice martial arts."
Dehaer?
Seeing that the young master couldn't remember who this person was, Xia Zhu reminded him: "Young master has forgotten the beggar brother and sister who he saved at the gate before the Chinese New Year."
Wang Lidong said:
"How are Di Yun and Di He'er living like this in Yaojiazhuang?"
Di Yun's property that had been misappropriated by his uncle was brought back with the help of Wang Lidong. The little guy was a smart man and knew that life would be difficult if he stayed in his hometown any longer, so he sold all the house and land for no reason and packed up his bed and took it with him. My sister moved to Yaojiazhuang.
Xia Zhu nodded and said, "Di Yun is currently doing odd jobs at Yaojiazhuang private school, Di He'er is studying in the literary class, and the little girl and Buwei often write letters."
Wang Lidong was a little speechless. He remembered that the little girl was only 9 years old and a little big. He didn't care about this kid...
Wang Lidong stuffed the album into his sleeves, "Tell Buwei that Di Yun really wants to learn martial arts, and let him go to Coach Xu to lay the foundation. If he can pass Coach Xu's assessment within one year, he will take it back to the house and I will personally teach."
Xia Zhu said, "Okay, Master."
Wang Lidong walked for a few minutes and arrived in front of his cousin's small courtyard.
"I've seen you, Second Young Master."
At the entrance of the Jifu Hall, my cousin's maid held the piano and performed a blessing ceremony.
Wang Lidong nodded, "Brother, are you feeling better recently?"
Baoqin replied: "Young Master has been able to get out of bed and walk around in the past two days."
Wang Lidong frowned and said, "Why are you so sick this time?"
Baoqin shook his head slightly, "I don't know much about this. My food and clothing are no different from usual."
As soon as he entered the room, there was a pungent smell of Chinese medicine on the tip of his nose. Wang Lidong looked around and found that all the windows were tightly closed. Seeing Baoqin reaching out to close the door, he said: "Don't close the door, the room is so stuffy."
, those who are not sick will become sick if they stay for a long time.”
Baoqin said hurriedly: "The doctor said that the young master's illness should not be exposed to the wind!"
"It's not that it's not suitable for ventilation! Go and have someone hang a curtain on the door. Go in and out slowly, otherwise there will be no wind."
Baoqin was a little hesitant, and then he heard a sickly voice: "Baoqin, listen to my second brother."
Baoqin gently replied, "Okay, Master."
Wang Lidong entered the living room and saw his cousin wrapped in a thick cloak and lying on a recliner. On his chest was a blue-covered thread-bound book with nine chapters of arithmetic.
"Brother."
"Second brother, here we come."
Wang Lidong took off his cloak and handed it to the maid beside him. He took a stool and placed it next to his cousin. After sitting down, he looked at the arithmetic book and said, "Auntie saw it, and some of your maids will definitely be in trouble again.
"
His cousin has been sick since he was a child, but God is very fair. Although his body is not good, his brain is very good.
You can memorize any book after reading it once, and you can mentally calculate 7-digit times 7-digit numbers. Unfortunately, the hardware is too stretched, and if your brain works a little faster, it will easily crash.
"Why is he so sick this time?" Wang Lidong took his cousin's hand and took his pulse.
"Second brother, when did you learn to diagnose diseases?"
"Don't make a sound."
Qi Xuan cooperated and kept his mouth shut, although he didn't believe that his second brother could see anything out of these two swords.
Wang Lidong took his pulse and then asked his cousin to open his mouth. He found that his gums were rotten and most of his teeth were missing. The gums of the remaining ten or so teeth were all covered with black lines.
Combined with the various symptoms my cousin had shown in the past, it turned out that the heavy metal poisoning was gone.
"Brother, how many times do you drink the palace's 'Qingming Name Soup'?"
"I used to have a bowl every three days, but this year my mother asked for it now, and now I have a bowl every two days."
Wang Lidong held his forehead.
No wonder, my condition has worsened again this year.
I think my aunt thought that if she drank more of this stuff, her son's illness would be cured.
Qi Xuan immediately noticed something was wrong and asked hurriedly:
"What's wrong, second brother, is there something wrong with this soup?"
Wang Lidong gave a look, indicating that what he said next would not be heard by outsiders. Qi Xuanchao gave his eldest maid a look, and after a while, only the two brothers were left in the room.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wang Lidong stood up and said, "Brother, do you see anything wrong with me?"
Qi Xuan looked at his second brother carefully for a while and said in surprise: "Second brother, you are much stronger than before. Whatever good food you eat, give me some..."
After Wang Lidong sat down, he whispered: "Brother, you still remember that there is a wintersweet outside my bedroom window, right?"
Qi Xuan thought seriously for a moment, nodded slightly and said, "I don't remember."
Then click some yarn!
"More than a month ago, my mother served me a bowl of 'pure name soup'. I felt a little tired at the time, so I gave it to the wintersweet brother outside the window. In the next month, this wintersweet brother drank a total of eight bowls of 'pure name soup' from me.
', when I was about to give him the ninth bowl, guess what I saw?"
Qi Xuan said in a deep voice:
"Brother Lamei is dead?!"
Wang Lidong nodded, "I also checked it specially and found that Brother Lamei's lower body is completely rotten."
"No wonder... After all these years, no matter how hard I check, I can't find out..." Qi Xuan glanced at the door, gritted his teeth and said, "Second brother, have you found out who wants to harm us?"
Wang Lidong rolled his eyes: "This thing comes from the palace, do you think I have this ability?"
It was quiet for a moment.
Qi Xuan pointed at the ceiling, "Do you think it's that one?"
Wang Lidong shook his head: "I don't know..."
In fact, he knew that the probability was unlikely, or very small. If we really wanted to deal with these two families now, there were plenty of ways, so why waste more than ten years.
There were no Imperial Guards in the Song Dynasty, but there was a secret service called the Imperial City Division, with about 20,000 people. The primary task of this organization was to detect the situation in the army and prevent conspiracies and disruptions.
Ahem, pay attention!
This military intelligence does not refer to foreign countries, but to the army of the Song Dynasty.
His maternal grandfather, the Marquis of Xiangyang, had hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, and as his son-in-law, Qi Guogong was definitely a key target of surveillance. From what he had observed these days, there were probably no less than ten spies in the family who should be from the Imperial City Division or other forces.
His cheap father would withdraw hundreds of thousands of yuan from the treasury every year and move it back to his own bank for ten consecutive years, rain or shine, without interruption for a year. Wang Lidong believes that the current emperor must appreciate this tireless attitude.
In my eyes, I'm just pretending not to know.
Anyone who sits in this lucrative position will give it to him, so it is better to give it to his confidant, and Qi's father is not evil, so it is within the scope of what the emperor can accept.
