The medical concubine is too difficult to tease

Chapter 19 Li Ren
At night, when it snowed lightly, Mama Sun went into the house and brushed off the snowflakes from her body. She added two lumps of charcoal to the bronze foot stove in her hand and placed it under Fan's feet.

"Jingxin Pavilion has not been so lively for a long time. The old lady used half a bowl of rice too much tonight."

Fan recalled Li Ruan's natural and composed appearance at the dinner table, and said in a relieved tone, "My heart is relieved when the child comes back. Brother Ren has a lot of thoughts. Although he has never mentioned it these years, I know he misses his sister. , I don’t know how happy I will be when I come back tomorrow.”

"Blessed is the eldest lady." Seeing that the master rarely talked about the children's affairs, Sun's mother continued the topic with a smile.

"She has been quiet since she was a child, and her temperament is also good, but she is too quiet and lacks the aura of a patriarch. The empress dowager brought up the old things again. At first, I was worried that she would be soft-tempered, and she had been in the countryside for many years and lacked food and clothing. Yes, it's hard to take on a big job when you come back, but take a look today." Fan smiled at Mama Sun, her tone full of appreciation.

"That's right, the eldest lady has grown up, and the slaves like her beautiful appearance."

"Not only her appearance, but also her calm attitude and way of dealing with things. What happened at the gate today can show her determination. With this courage, I feel relieved."

Speaking of this matter, Sun's mother also had a trace of comfort on her face, "Then Guanshi Liu is usually incompetent, but I didn't expect him to dare to let the eldest lady go home through the side door. Now it's good, old lady, don't you know?" , how many servants applauded in private, it shows how unpopular he is usually."

"Mr. Lin has been more and more over the line these years, and the people under her command have become more and more arrogant. After Mrs. Gao left, she stepped in and indulged Brother Ren. If I didn't stop her later, she wouldn't have let her spoil her. Seeing her own son come to power, now that the empress dowager brought up the marriage again, she became greedy again, but she didn't know that the empress dowager's thoughts were not with the Li family at all, they came for the face of the Gao family, and she was still there It's really stupid to think of pushing your own daughter to replace you." Fan's face was full of anger, and he twirled the prayer beads.

"Old lady, don't worry, the young lady is blessed, the young master is also uplifting, and he is filial to you by studying and working hard. From now on, you can only enjoy the blessings of your children and grandchildren." It is related to the private affairs of the master in the house, and Mother Sun will naturally not agree with anything. Seeing Fan's anger, just choose some nice words to comfort him.

"I'm old, and now I only hope for the safety of my children and grandchildren. A Yuan went to Nanshan Bieyuan to accompany Shengjia. You have been watching the people who live in the Yiyue Pavilion these days. If there is any movement, please report to me in time." Fan pondered, Give Sun Mama detailed instructions.

A good night's sleep, in the morning sunshine, white snow.

There are several side rooms on both sides of the main house. Yesterday Xuegu tidied up the servant’s room on the left side, and used it as a warehouse on the right side. The back is a deserted small kitchen. She is worried about the people in the big kitchen in the house, thinking that she will clean it up later. use.

After waking up the two lazy girls who were sleeping soundly in the side room, Xuegu walked into the main room softly, walked around the nanmu screen, glanced at the young lady under the quilt, and withdrew and sat down to embroider the unfinished handkerchief. The wife has always liked to be clean, and she has long since avoided the rule of the younger generation asking for greetings early in the morning.

Li Ru'an hasn't had a good night's sleep for a long time. During the half month after Master's death, she had to keep a high degree of vigilance at all times. Childhood memories, Li Ru'an slept until the sun was up.

After the breakfast was announced, the minced meat porridge from the big kitchen was served with some steamed stuffed buns. It was simple and delicious. Xuegu and the others walked away, nervously trying again and again with silver hairpins before stopping.

"Don't worry, Mrs. Lin doesn't dare to do anything in the mansion openly." Li Ru'an sat down after washing her hands and said, in fact, her nose is more useful than any silver hairpin, and trying to poison her through the entrance is as difficult as climbing the sky .

"It's better to be careful. I'll tidy up the small kitchen in the afternoon, so I can rest assured that I can do it myself, but I have to find a cook, but not from the house." Xuegu put away the porridge and said distressedly, "Blame me , the cooking skills are not good, I can still cook some in the countryside, the taste is good, the second is to fill my stomach, but now that I am back at my home, I can't feel wronged, miss."

While talking, Alan's immature voice came from outside, "Who are you looking for?"

Xuegu got up and opened the curtain and went out, and saw a handsome young man standing at the gate of the courtyard, panting with a book bag, his clothes stained with snow, dusty, seeing her grinning, his face was happy.

"aunt!"

"Brother Ren! Miss, it's Brother Ren!" Xue Gu was so excited, she went up to her and pulled the person to look left and right, with tears in her eyes.

The curtain opened, and Li Ren saw a girl in plain clothes and forged skirts, with an unmistakable appearance, came out, her posture was calm, her face seemed to be familiar, and it seemed that she had never seen it before.

"Sister." Li Ren approached, bowed his hands and saluted, gentle and elegant, his reddish eyes showed his excitement, just now when he entered the gate, he heard the guard's servant discussing yesterday's events, so he went straight here, saw The An Ran Pavilion, which had been abandoned for many years, suddenly became popular, and he realized how much he missed the days when his mother and sister were by his side.

"came back?"

Li Ren raised his eyes slightly, and saw that his sister's face was as calm as water, and he said "I'm back", which made him feel as if his sister had never left the house and was waiting for him to come back from school every day.

"Come in and eat." There was still light snow outside, Li Ru'an glanced at Li Ren's snowy bun and gown, then turned and entered the room.

It was really like the scene where his mother waited for him to come back from class after waiting for his mother to come in for dinner. Li Ren smiled, hey, and stepped into the house that he hadn't dared to approach for three years.

Xuegu wiped her tears and led Ziyan Alan back out, leaving room for the siblings to be alone.

"Is it cold?"

"not cold."

"How about homework?"

"Very good. I got the first place in the children's examination last year, and my master recommended me to take the Gongsheng examination in the spring of next year."

Still quite confident, Li Ru'an looked up at Li Ren. He looked like Li Yuan, fresh and handsome, but without Li Yuan's arrogance and gloom, he was more elegant and delicate. Now he grinned at her with a mouthful of white teeth, like a Children who have perfect scores in the exam are waiting for their parents to praise them.

"Well, very good, not bad." Li Ru'an put a taro roll in his bowl and said with a smile.

Sitting in the room full of traces of his mother, listening to his sister's affirmative answer, Li Ren felt warm all over. How long has it been since he felt this kind of peace of mind?

Since his mother left, Lin was insidious and put him in danger several times. He could only pretend to obey in order to survive, but he still couldn't protect his sister. He watched her being sent out of the house, helpless. After her sister left, Lin Qing was even more unscrupulous, and let some maids follow him every step of the way every day. Whenever he wanted to read and practice calligraphy, a few maids would laugh and play or chase and play, and sometimes they simply dragged him out to play. In fact, he was not given the opportunity to study at ease.

If things go on like this, there is no solution. Later, he deliberately pretended to be domineering and arrogant. One day, he chased the maid in the grandmother's house and said some crazy words, messing around, which attracted the attention of grandmother and father. He scolded Mrs. Lin angrily and strictly prohibited it Then intervene in brother's upbringing, let him move out of Yiyue Pavilion, and change all the people around him, so that he has time and energy to review the homework that he missed before, so that he won't really become an unlearned slut.

The siblings ate their meals, burned incense for Mrs. Gao, knelt on the futon and looked at the memorial tablet quietly.

"Sister, you have to be careful with Lin's. I don't believe she really wants to take you back." Li Ren turned his head, looked at the girl Linglong's calm profile, and expressed his worries.

"You don't have to worry about these little things."

"I've grown up, and I can protect my sister!" Li Ren looked at his mother's tablet with firm eyes.

"Aren, I am not the Li Ru'an from before. Believe me, I can handle these things. The most important thing for you now is to concentrate on your studies and earn fame. This is related to your future career and life." Li Ru'an deeply remembered Gao's last words, There is also the last sustenance of the original body.

If the children of the ancient aristocratic families do not want to rely solely on the family’s shadow, the only way out is the scientific examination. A boy can take the child’s examination at the age of ten and become a child. Titled, settled in the officialdom.

"Okay, Ah Ren must live up to the expectations of his mother and sister, achieve fame, and become the pillar of his sister." Li Ren looked at his sister's calm and composed face, and inexplicably felt a huge sense of trust.

The two walked out of the inner room. Li Ru'an looked Li Ren up and down, picked up his half-dried sleeves, frowned slightly, and said in disgust, "Go back and wash up first. Look at your clothes and hair, they are dirty. Just like when I was a kid."

"Hey, aren't you in a hurry to see my sister?"

Xuegu's eyes were red, and she looked at the siblings who were so intimate with satisfaction, wiped away her tears, went into the room, carried a bundle, and followed Li Ren out of the courtyard.

"Auntie is going to Rengeer's yard to see if there is anything missing. Oh, look at you, your sideburns are wet, wipe them off quickly, you will catch cold in this cold weather! Auntie embroidered sweat towels and insoles for you , my sister bought you a cotton padded jacket yesterday, try it on later to see if it fits..."

In the fluffy snowflakes, on the blue brick path, two figures walked away, Li Ru'an felt a very strange warmth in his heart, it turned out that there was such a feeling in the world that there was a relative who was connected by blood.

Yongfu Palace

The Empress Dowager, who was dressed in a crimson palace uniform, walked back and forth, staring at the outside of the palace door, with an excited and expectant expression.

"Your Majesty, the palace maid said that the prince has entered the palace gate and will be there in a while. You had cold legs again last night. Sit down and wait." Zheng Yan stepped forward to support her and persuaded him in a warm voice.

"The Ai family can't sit still, why is this child walking so slowly?" The queen mother waved her hands, stretched her sore knees, her face was anxious.

"King Huan is here!" The prison guard outside the door shouted.

Xiao Huan was dressed in a silver-white robe, and his long ink-colored coat fluttered. He stepped up the steps and stepped into the palace. He looked at the coming mother queen and smiled.

"Yao Yao!"

Xiao Huan paused, feeling quite helpless, this nickname that Yan Mo has ridiculed until now, only his mother dared to call it out in private, but now he shouted it in front of the palace people, it can be seen that the mother really misses it very much.

"My son, please greet the queen mother."

"Get up, let the queen mother see how thin she is!" The queen mother pulled the person up to look left and right, up and down, and said distressedly, frowning.

"Wanfu, my lord." The maidservants were all sent out of the palace gate, Zheng Yan saluted with half knees, seeing the helplessness on the face of the lord who was pulled by the queen mother, and secretly smiled in his heart, the lord is obviously much stronger than six years ago Little, sure enough, in the eyes of mothers, children outside will never have enough to eat.

"Your Majesty, Tian Han, don't freeze your legs and feet anymore, sit down and talk." Seeing that King Huan was turned around by the Empress, Zheng Yan laughed and made a sound.

Bainiao Chaofeng Jinmian sat on the main seat, the queen mother pulled her son to sit down, her expression was joyful and cheerful, no matter how much she looked at her, she couldn't get enough.

"Is the mother's hind legs cold again?" Xiao Huan looked at the new wrinkles in the corners of the mother's eyes, and frowned slightly.

"It's okay, it's okay, when you get older, you will always have some minor ailments, it's not a problem, when Ai's family saw you back, all the ailments disappeared, but you, have you recovered from all your injuries?" The Queen Mother asked her son with a distressed touch.

"I met a famous doctor on the way back, and she's all healed. If I see you again in the future, I will bring her to show you." Xiao Huan smiled, and the face that he had been thinking about for several days appeared in his mind.

"Very good, very good, my son's illness has been cured, the Ai family will reward him heavily, and reward him with an official position!"

"Well, she shouldn't like these..."

Seeing that the mother and son had endless words to say, Zheng Yan withdrew to order someone to prepare lunch.
