There was so much excitement at the door, and the people on the Chen family soon knew about it, and hurriedly invited Mr. Deqing and his wife in.
Mrs. Deqing was helped directly to Chen's house, an Arhat bed was set up for her to lie down on.
Lying opposite is Chen.
"What's going on?" Mrs. Chen sat up and asked in surprise, "Why did you let the old lady come out?"
An old lady in her seventies hardly left the house more than ten years ago.
Mr. Deqing and his wife drank tea and were massaged and beaten by several servants, and now they recovered.
She looked at Chen and was also surprised.
"Why do you look so bad?" she asked, about to get up, "You didn't even say that your child was sick!"
He called for the imperial doctor again.
"Mr. Zhou has already seen it and prescribed medicine to take." Mrs. Chen said with a smile and asked someone to stop her.
Now that Zhou Maochun has seen it, Mr. Deqing and his wife are a little relieved.
"The one you brought back..." she asked, but forgot what to call her, "The woman who lived in your father's house..."
This statement sounded so strange that the maids around quickly reminded him in low voices.
"Ms. Qi." The old lady then remembered and continued, "Who is she?"
Mrs. Chen smiled.
The old lady was getting more and more confused, often opening her mouth and forgetting things, and the servant girl next to her would inevitably remind her in a low voice.
"That's not what I'm talking about." Mrs. Deqinggong waved her hands impatiently, still looking at Ms. Chen, "Why is she, like, the same child from that family?"
Which one? Which one?
The maids around were confused.
Mrs. Chen smiled.
"Which one?" she said, with questions in her mouth, but her expression was indifferent.
"Xue Niang, you know who I'm talking about!" the old lady said in a deep voice.
Mrs. Chen lowered his head and smiled, then raised his head.
"Really? I can't even remember clearly. If my aunt said they are similar, then they are similar," she said.
Qi Yue didn't know what happened in Chen's place. She had already bowed to the emperor and was opening the box she brought.
"Ms. Qi is really smart." The emperor said with a smile, looking at the kneeling woman in front of him.
Qi Yue was no longer as restrained as before when she saw the emperor. Hearing this, he raised his head and smiled.
"Thank you, Your Majesty," she said.
The eunuchs nearby couldn't help but click their tongues, this woman is really rude.
The emperor's smile became even stronger.
There is no need to say the sentence he originally prepared to explain why he summoned her.
"The civilian woman knows that Your Majesty must be waiting to see the progress." Qi Yue lowered her head and took out the things in the box.
The emperor looked at her.
"Get up." he said.
Qi Yue looked up and smiled again.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, I'm fine like this." She said, changing to a kneeling position.
This was the first time that the eunuchs had seen someone refuse the emperor's order so easily and casually, and looking at the speaker and the listener, it was obvious that they were not particularly aware of it. It seemed that this conversation was perfect.
Qi Yue then took out the scissors and knife, and the eunuch was startled.
"Oh, this can't be done." They hurriedly stood up and gathered around Qi Yue.
Qi Yue was a little confused.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"You cannot use these weapons in front of His Majesty," the eunuchs said anxiously.
The murder weapon?
"Go away, you are making such a fuss about me." The emperor said displeased.
The eunuchs then stepped aside sarcastically. Seeing that the emperor not only did not shy away, but also did not need the eunuchs to present it to him. He stood up, walked over, and stood in front of Qi Yue.
"These..." He bent slightly and looked at the things Qi Yue laid out, and asked curiously, "Are these the things you use to show off your magical skills?"
"Yes." Qi Yue smiled and pointed to him one by one, "Tweezers, scalpels, scissors, these are divided into many types..."
The emperor first bent slightly to watch, and then simply sat down. The eunuchs were surprised again and hurriedly fetched the cushions.
Are these things so beautiful?
still…
The eunuchs stood aside, their lowered gazes couldn't help but fall on the woman sitting opposite the emperor.
Qi Yue had already laid out everything and explained what they were one by one.
"This syringe is the one you mentioned last time to draw the air out of Mr. Li Ge's stomach?" The emperor stretched out his slender fingers and picked up the syringe with some hesitation and asked.
"This is not yet. This is an injection syringe. Li Ge always used a puncture syringe." Qi Yue smiled, lowered his head and rummaged through the box, then smiled apologetically, "It hasn't been made yet."
The emperor looked at her and smiled, putting the syringe back.
There should be nothing else to do. She had already let His Majesty know that she was not lazy, so Qi Yue was ready to pack her things.
"Then how do you use this scalpel?" the emperor pointed again and asked.
Still want to know how to use it?
Qi Yue smiled and reached out to pick it up, making a gesture of holding a pen.
"Use it this way." She said, changing her gestures again, "It can also be used this way, this way..."
The emperor smiled as he watched the flexible movements of the woman in front of him, and the eunuchs around him felt their hearts in their throats. "My dear, you are so easy to play with the knife, but it is too dangerous..."
The eunuchs in front of the emperor were not the only ones who were nervous. At this time, Mrs. Rao Chen was walking around the house, asking the old lady from time to time if she was back. After a while, someone else said she was back, and she was overjoyed and hurried over.
Mrs. Deqinggong had a sullen face and was supported by two servants as she walked quickly.
Chen Xueniang's weird temperament, couldn't her mother please her?
"Mother, what did Snow Lady say?" she asked.
"She didn't say anything." Mrs. Deqinggong replied, "I think she knows it very well."
"She did it on purpose!" Mrs. Rao Chen nodded and said, feeling angry, anxious and aggrieved, "I have never offended her. I have always treated her like a little sister since I was a child.
How could she be so cruel and trap me into injustice! I will never have the shame to enter Rao's house from now on."
"What did you say?" Madam Deqing seemed to have come back to her senses and frowned, "Why did she frame you?"
Rao Chen was stunned when asked.
"Isn't it the imperial edict of harmony that she invited?" she asked.
"How do I know?" Mrs. Deqing said.
Mrs. Rao Chen was a little crazy.
"Didn't you ask her? Didn't you say she admitted it?" she said.
Mr. Deqing and his wife suddenly said, "Oh."
"Well, I forgot to ask," she said.
Mrs. Rao Chen didn't even come up for a breath.
"Then what were you doing there?" she said.
Mr. Deqing and his wife looked a little confused.
"Yeah, what did I do there?" she murmured.
Rao Chen was so angry that she couldn't help it.
"Didn't you talk about drawing cards? Are everyone here?" Mr. Deqing and his wife asked again.
The old lady was suffering from confusion again, and the servants were busy supporting her and coaxing her.
"Come, come, I'll wait until you grow old."
Rao Chen waved her hands helplessly.
"Hurry and help mother take medicine," she said.
Mr. Deqing and his wife heard her speak.
"Erhua? Why are you here? When did you come?" she asked.
Mrs. Rao Chen put her hand on her forehead and exhaled.
"Mom, I've been here for several days. I'm leaving now. I'll come see you another day." She said, and walked away without waiting for Mrs. Deqing to speak again.
The servants helped the old lady go inside.
"Go to the uncle's place." The old lady said suddenly.
The servants were stunned for a moment, thinking that the old lady was extremely confused, so they hurriedly responded without turning around.
"Oh, I'm not confused." The old lady shouted angrily, shook off the maid, and walked tremblingly towards brother Chen Xue.
It was hard to tell when the old lady was confused and when she became clear. The servants and women had no choice but to follow her.
Chen Xue's two brothers, both close to fifty, live in the east courtyard of Deqing Gongfu. The courtyard is divided into two, and the two brothers live separately. They are both weak and sick and left their jobs at home early. They have few children.
They were all sent far away, and now the younger generation has almost forgotten that there are still these two people in the Chen family's main room.
Mrs. Deqinggong went directly to Uncle Chen.
Uncle Chen likes to practice Taoism. Hearing that Mrs. Deqinggong was here, he came out of the monastery to meet each other. If he was someone else, he could only talk to the servants and pass them on.
"Have you seen the woman Xuemiang brought back?" Mrs. Deqinggong asked straight to the point.
Uncle Chen shook his head.
"I've only heard from my second brother, but I've never seen it," he said.
Mr. Deqing and his wife were silent for a moment.
"I guess this woman is related to someone," she said.
Uncle Chen looked at her.
Mr. Deqing and his wife seemed a little embarrassed.
"Wanning Villa." she said.
Uncle Chen's expression suddenly changed.
"Aunt, please don't say this nonsense..." he whispered.
"Of course I know that I can't say this nonsense." Old Mrs. Deqing seemed to feel a little more relaxed after she said these words that she had been holding in her heart. She narrowed her eyes and seemed to see far away, "But when I saw it today, I almost died of fright.
My facial features and description are exactly the same as that child's..."
"Didn't you say she was a woman?" Uncle Chen questioned in a low voice.
"Isn't that child just as handsome as a woman? She is obsessed with Snow Lady at a glance..." Mrs. Deqinggong said with a snort. At this point, she coughed and stopped. She glanced at Uncle Chen and thought of something, "Oh, yes.
, you have never seen it."
She exhaled and narrowed her eyes.
"You haven't seen her before. If you say she looks like her, this woman actually looks more like the child's grandmother, Concubine Zheng..." she murmured.
Before he finished speaking, Uncle Chen suddenly stood up.
"Aunt!" he finished the old lady's words.
"Okay, I'm already my age, don't scare me all of a sudden." The old lady gave him a sideways look, "I can bear it if you brothers and sisters scare me."
Uncle Chen was panting and pacing back and forth.
"Impossible, no one escaped from that fire, everyone was dead, absolutely dead." He murmured, and then nodded firmly, "Aunt, there are just some similarities. There are many similar people in the world.
"
Mr. Deqing and his wife looked at him.
"Xue Niang's thoughts towards that person, it is understandable that she would do some exaggerated things when meeting such a similar person." Uncle Chen said.
Mrs. Deqinggong exhaled and looked out the door.
"Yes, there are many similar people in the world, and it is normal for Xue Niang's temperament to do this. But, Mrs. Dingxihou, why do you do this?" She said slowly, a bright light flashed in her usually turbid eyes, "The beggar's temperament
If this is true or false, will anyone really believe it?" (To be continued)
