After sitting down, Jia Ke chatted with Aunt Zhou for a while, and finally told Lan Xiang: "I leave my affairs to you. You must take good care of your aunt. From now on, your aunt's role in our house will be the same as that of the neighboring house."
The lady here is coming, just don’t overtake the old lady.”
Lan Xiang immediately responded: "Don't worry, uncle, I'm prepared. Although my aunt can't surpass the old lady in our house, you will be the same as the lady in the house next to you."
"Okay, then I'm relieved. There are also four maids around my aunt. One or two more monthly payments can be considered as a reward for serving my aunt." Jia Ke followed Zhou to these few.
My aunt has been a maid for several years and has also made some arrangements.
Lan Xiang agreed one by one.
Jia Ke turned around and said to Aunt Zhou again: "Auntie, I still have something to do in court, so I can no longer accompany you."
"If you have something to do, go and do it quickly. I have nothing to do, so I don't need you to accompany me." Aunt Zhou heard that Jia Ke had something to do and hurriedly drove him away.
"Auntie, when you have nothing to do, you can walk around our house. The flowers in the garden behind are blooming just right now. You can go and take a look when you have time. When you have nothing to do, go and accompany Ke Qing. You two can talk and also
It can crowd out loneliness." Before leaving, Jia Ke asked Aunt Zhou again.
Aunt Zhou said to Jia Ke impatiently: "I'm not old enough to move, so I need you to tell me these things. You should leave as soon as possible. I'll get annoyed if you keep nagging me any longer."
Jia Ke then went to the military aircraft office at Aunt Zhou's urging.
When Lan Xiang saw Jia Ke leaving, she quickly poured a cup of tea for Aunt Zhou and handed it to her.
"Auntie, let's see if there is anything missing here. If there is any shortage, I will order someone to deliver it immediately." Lan Xiang stood next to Auntie Zhou and said respectfully.
Aunt Zhou looked at the room and saw that the room was resplendent with all kinds of furnishings and supplies. It was completely decorated according to the old lady’s furnishings. Is there any shortage?
"This is already as good as it gets. There's nothing missing there. It's just that this place is too luxurious. It's not like a place for people like me to live." Aunt Zhou is still a little self-abased. Regarding her birth, she has never thought about it.
Never had confidence.
"What are you talking about, auntie? You gave birth to our uncle, which is your greatest credit. With such credit, what blessing can't you enjoy?"
Aunt Zhou felt very considerate of Lan Xiang, and the smile on her face became even brighter. She reached out and took Lan Xiang's hand, pulled her to her seat and sat down.
"It's really hard on you this time, but Qing is pregnant now. You have to handle the whole house for her, and you have to take care of me. It's really hard." Aunt Zhou is still very satisfied with Lan Xiang, although he doesn't
She has served him before, but during this period she has been handling affairs in the house very well, so she should be a help to Qin Keqing.
Lan Xiang's cheeks turned red after being praised by Aunt Zhou, and she was so embarrassed by the pillow, but no one saw her. When she lowered her head, her eyes shone with pride.
From then on, Aunt Zhou lived in Jia Ke's Wuyang Hou Mansion. She had nothing to do every day, just going to Qin Keqing's room to chat with her to relieve her boredom, and by the way, she talked about some fertility matters. Then there was the queen of Wuyang Hou Mansion.
Wandering in the garden, accompanied by Chuncao and Qiaolian, the few of them lived a carefree life in the house. Aunt Zhou felt that she had truly lived for a while now. This was the most relaxing time since she was born.
days.
The Wuyang Marquis Mansion was calm, but there were several troubles in the Rongguo Mansion. It turned out that after getting Jia Ke's promise, Mrs. Wang successively discouraged Jia Zhu from continuing to study day and night, and even took away all the people in Jia Zhu's room.
All the books were put away so that he could rest in his room to his fullest.
But Jia Zhu is now focused on the imperial examination. How can she accept such an arrangement? So the mother and son had several quarrels. Although Jia Zhu resisted Mrs. Wang several times, in this society with far-reaching influence of feudal ethics, Jia Zhu was suppressed by Mrs. Wang.
Zhu had no choice but to reluctantly follow Mrs. Wang's arrangements. However, she was secretly dissatisfied, and often secretly read books while Mrs. Wang was away. The two started a guerrilla war. In the end, Mrs. Wang noticed this, so she
This is a lesson for Jia Zhu.
The two of them had such a quarrel that soon the matter reached Jia Zheng's ears. Jia Zheng didn't know what was going on. He was very angry about Mrs. Wang's obstruction of Jia Zhu's study. He scolded Mrs. Wang in front of many people.
She said that she is a loving mother who often fails, and she also expressed her appreciation for Jia Zhu's ability to fight hard.
Jia Zhu was listening to Jia Zheng's praise. At that time, she was so proud that she thought he had made a big splash in this matter, and did not notice Mrs. Wang's embarrassment at all.
At this time, Mrs. Wang was in a state of unspeakable suffering, and she felt quite trapped in a cocoon. Later, Mrs. Wang cried bitterly and told Jia Zheng that Jia Zhu was really not in good health, and she might not be good if she continued like this, so she let him
Get more rest to take care of your health. As for the imperial examination, Jia Zhu's talent was unexpected. In fact, she had Jia Ke's promise and felt confident.
Jia Zheng also had high hopes for Jia Zhu, and naturally did not want his body to collapse like this. Besides, he also knew that Jia Zhu failed several consecutive imperial examinations due to physical reasons, so he was shaken. In the end, it was stipulated that Jia Zhu should be held every
I can only study for half a day every day, which is a compromise with Mrs. Wang.
Mrs. Wang was worried about Jia Zhu, so she specially arranged for Li Wan to supervise him, and then she left with peace of mind.
At the beginning, Jia Zhu followed the arrangement of studying in the morning and resting in the afternoon. But after a few days of shopping, she couldn't bear it anymore. Every day when Li Wan was not around, she secretly took out the book to read. Sometimes even in the middle of the night.
They had to get up and study while Li Wan was away.
Li Wan was pregnant and often needed rest, so she could not be by Jia Zhu's side all the time. Although she arranged for maids to supervise Jia Zhu, those maids would not dare to take care of the second master of Rongguo Mansion. Therefore,
Not only did Jia Zhu not rest, but he got worse. As a result, his health did not improve at all, and even worsened because he often got up in the middle of the night to read.
But Mrs. Wang didn't think of this. She thought that with Li Zhi watching over Jia Zhu, everything would be fine. Little did she know that a moment of negligence almost led to a catastrophe.
When it was almost autumn, Jia Ke greeted the governor of Shuntian as agreed. The governor of Shuntian knew that Jia Ke was now in power and how could he dare to offend him. He had secretly arranged for him to greet the academic administration. As long as he
If Jia Zhu is not too bad this time, he will definitely win.
But things went against expectations. Jia Zhu's health did not improve due to secretly studying. She still could not persist in the third session and was finally carried out of the examination room. As for Jia Zhu's situation in the examination room, no one cares about it now.
.
When Jia Zhu was carried back, she was already unconscious. This shocked the entire Jia family, and even Jia Ke hurriedly came from Wuyang Marquis Mansion.
When Jia Ke came to Jia Zhu's yard, there was already a lot of crying. Jia Ke shivered in fright, thinking that something had happened to Jia Zhu. He quickly walked a few steps into Jia Zhu's room. As soon as he entered the room
When he opened the door, he saw that there were already crowds of people inside. Next to Jia Zhu's bed, Mrs. Wang and the pregnant Li Wan were crying bitterly, but they did not see Jia's mother.
At this time, Jia Zheng, who was standing by the window, kept sighing. Jia Ke hurriedly came to the bed and saw that Jia Zhu had her eyes closed tightly, her lips were biting, her face was purple, and she was already breathing more out and less in.
Jia Ke quickly asked Jia Zheng, "The second brother is so bad, can he report it to the old lady?"
"How dare you let the old lady know that this disease is so serious? If the old lady has another problem, it will not be our unfilial piety." Jia Zheng sighed while answering Jia Ke's words.
When Jia Ke saw this situation, he knew something was wrong. He quickly sent his servant and took his post to the Tai Hospital to ask Lu Jin, the director of the Tai Hospital. He has the best medical skills in such a large Tai Hospital. As long as he comes,
There is still some certainty that Jia Zhu can be rescued.
Originally, Jia Ke wanted to try a small rejuvenation technique on him, but he changed his mind temporarily. If he used a small rejuvenation technique on Jia Zhu, Jia Zhu would probably recover immediately, and then Jia Ke's secret would no longer be hidden.
At this time, Jia Ke finally chose to hide himself. As for Jia Zhu, he could only use all his connections. As for whether he could be saved, he could only leave it to fate.
Soon Dr. Lu Jin from Tai Hospital came. As soon as Lu Jin entered the room, Jia Ke quickly pulled him to Jia Zhu's side, and then said guiltily: "My brother is really not well today, otherwise I wouldn't dare to
"Don't bother Dr. Lu, as long as the old doctor can save his brother's life, please do not hesitate to ask for anything." This is already a very big promise.
Lu Jin didn't say much, and directly put his hand on Jia Zhu's pulse gate. At this time, the noisy sound in the room suddenly became quiet. Especially Mrs. Wang's eyes were fixed on the old doctor Lu, she was really scared.
Something bad could be seen on his face.
Dr. Lu took Jia Zhu's pulse for a long time, his face became more and more gloomy, and everyone's hearts became more and more worried along with his expression.
After Doctor Lu took a long time, he took his hand away. Then he stood up and cupped his hands to Jia Ke and said: "Master Jia, your body has really reached the point where it has run out of energy. Even as a little old man, I can only
I can barely sustain him for a month or two, but no matter how long it lasts, there will be nothing I can do."
Jia Ke thought that Jia Zhu in the Dream of Red Mansions might have died during this time. It seemed that Jia Zhu could not escape this fate.
Jia Ke originally wanted to give up like this, but suddenly he thought that although he could not breed the fairy grass elixir in the space he had obtained from Aunt Zhang, the age of the medicinal materials in it could indeed increase hundreds of times. Those who were old enough
I don’t know if the medicinal materials can save Jia Zhu’s life.
"Old doctor, I'm not afraid of your jokes. When I was in Xuanfu Town, someone gave me a ginseng. They said it has thousands of years of medicinal effect. I wonder if my brother-in-law can survive using this ginseng.
Life." Jia Ke hurriedly asked Dr. Lu.
Dr. Lu was a little hesitant after hearing Jia Ke's words. He had seen ginseng that was hundreds of years old, and there were one or two treasures in the Thousand-Year Ginseng Palace. But he had never heard of ginseng that was thousands of years old.
However, if it really existed, it would not have become a spirit.
So he carefully answered Jia Ke and said: "There are treasures in the palace of this thousand-year-old ginseng. I have never seen these thousand-year-old ginseng. Why not bring it for me to have a look. If there are treasures like those in the palace,
The effect of a thousand years can actually save a life of one or two years."
After hearing the answer from Dr. Lu, Jia Ke immediately said to Mrs. Wang: "Mother, now send a maid to Ke Qing and tell her that I want the ginseng in the sandalwood box and ask her to deliver it."
