Splendid spring returns

Chapter 84 The Strange Disease
"wrong."

Xin Nian slowly shook his head: "Who is that? That's the old ancestor, a powerful character who has lived ups and downs in the deep palace for most of his life. No matter how much he cares about him, he won't be able to do this. She has many grandchildren and grandchildren. Everyone There are comparisons, she is concerned in her heart, and on the surface, the bowl of water should not be too biased."

"What does Auntie mean?" Xinghua is also a smart person, because her eyes widened, she whispered: "The old ancestor supports you to make such a scene?"

Xin Nian nodded deeply: "I said before, the old ancestor was a noble concubine in the palace, and even the queen mother was afraid of her. Now here, she can only look at the princess and grandma controlling the entire prince's mansion coldly. Really willing? If given the chance, she doesn't want to beat that girl?"

"But..." Xinghua frowned: "The old ancestor has been living in the mansion for almost ten years, and he should have been beating if he wanted to. How could he wait until now?"

Xin Nian smiled and said: "Are you stupid? What is the identity of the old ancestor? If you want to beat your daughter-in-law and grand-daughter-in-law, can she do it herself? If the old man doesn't do it, see who else in the house is suitable for this matter? The concubine is soft, her natal family has lost power, and she is being pinched to death by the concubine and grandma, but besides the concubine, who else is there?"

"Oh..." Xinghua suddenly realized: "So now I have a aunt. So, the last time I killed the chicken to make an example to the monkey, the ancestors saw the performance of the aunt, so they will give you obvious support this time?"

"This should be."

Xin Nian lightly tapped the table with his fingers, and after a long while sneered, "If you want to harm my child, how can you do it without paying a price? It's just that there are a dozen rough women in the garden who dare to form cliques and give people Be an accomplice. If that’s the case, let’s replace them all. If there are vacancies, there will naturally be those who are willing to take care of things. Our mansion should also buy more people to come in. The prince also said earlier that there is a severe shortage of people in the village. Since the son is good at sweeping and sweeping, he should also be good at farming."

Xinghua smiled and said: "Naturally. They usually grow flowers and vegetables in various places in the mansion, and they have a lot of experience. There is only one thing, and the people who buy it in may not necessarily have this ability."

"Why not?" Xin Nian said indifferently: "Did you forget? Didn't Sanniang tell us yesterday that the Yellow River flooded this summer, and there were many refugees in Beijing, and it was difficult to do business even with human teeth? There are too many people here, and the price can’t be sold. These victims have all cultivated the land, not to mention it doesn’t matter if they don’t know how to plant, can’t they learn?”

"That's right." Xinghua nodded: "Sure enough, it can be regarded as a relief to the victims. The prince must be happy when he comes back."

Xin Nian stood up: "Okay, tomorrow is the fifteenth day. The concubine and grandma will go to pay respects to the ancestors on this day every month. I will talk to them about it."

*****************
There was a light snowfall for half a day at night, a thin layer, which soon disappeared as soon as the sun came out.

Concubine Liao sat around with the Liao family and several aunts, and Concubine Liao asked concerned: "Does the ancestor feel cold at night? Winter seems to have come earlier this year. If it's cold, it's time to burn the earth dragon. This day , but dare not catch a cold."

Now the old concubine who has become the princess smiled and said: "I'm fine, this year I changed to a new cotton quilt, and I covered it with Mrs. Tang before going to bed, and I didn't feel cold all night."

Nanny Chen next to her laughed and said, "It's not just that you don't feel the cold? The ancestors also said that the snow fell too little, and it melted in a short time, so it's not enough for fun."

Concubine Liao said with a smile: "It's rare that the ancestors are in good spirits. It's not difficult. In a few days, don't worry if there is no heavy snow. At that time, someone will clean up the Jiyue Hall in the garden carefully. I invite the ancestors to enjoy the snow and barbecue. , let's have a good time."

After the words fell, Liao hurriedly said: "I will remember this. After a few days, when it snows heavily, I will immediately go to the concubine to ask for money, so that people can clean it up and buy wine and meat."

"Bah! Give you to the stingy..."

Concubine Liao couldn't help laughing and cursing, and suddenly Aunt Qiu said with a smile: "It's boring just us, we have to call Wangfei and Sister Xin together... Huh? Speaking of which, why haven't they arrived yet? It should have been here earlier."

The old concubine said calmly: "Changting's daughter-in-law is weak; Liuzai and Yaya are just recovering from a serious illness, and they can't do without others. I told them that if it's inconvenient for them, they don't have to come here."

"How can this be done? As the saying goes, etiquette cannot be broken."

Liao's brows raised: "Our mansion is the first place in Beijing to be relaxed. The concubine doesn't need us to make up our minds every morning and evening. We just gather at the ancestor's place on the 15th of every month. We shouldn't be absent. send someone..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard someone shouting outside: "Aunt Xin is here."

Liao was taken aback for a moment, then stood up, smiling like a flower, and said, "This really means that Cao Cao has arrived, maybe I will go to greet him personally..."

Before she could finish speaking, she saw Xin Nian walking in, wearing a white fox fur feather satin cloak. Although she was a little thinner than before, those bright autumn eyes were full of vigor. radiant.

Liao's eyelids twitched, he managed to suppress the jealousy in his heart, and said with a smile, "Your sister is late, tell yourself, how should you punish her?"

Xin Nian took off the cloak, and the girl from Shouning Palace picked it up. She saluted the old concubine first, and then said to Liao with a smile: "I just came from the concubine's place. The concubine's body is really not good, please ask me to come here." Tell the old ancestor that after staying for two days, she will be stronger, so she will come to greet you."

The old concubine's face was serious, and she said worriedly: "What's the important thing to please? The body of Changting's daughter-in-law is important. What do you think of her appearance? Last time she came here, I felt that she was thinner, and her eyes didn't have any luster. I have invited the imperial physician, but I can’t tell you what Ziwu Maoyou is, what’s going on here?”

Xin Nian said dejectedly: "I really don't know. My sister said that she also understands medical principles, eats, sits, and sleeps carefully, but it's just strange. I don't know where this disease comes from? When will it be cured? I asked Litchi, it is said that this morning I only drank half a bowl of bird's nest porridge, and I can't eat any more. It's okay to say for a day or two, but if things go on like this, how can it be born?"

Speaking of Princess Qin, the old concubine also had a sad face.Concubine Liao said from the side: "It seems that we can only find the imperial physician again. I don't know when Changting will come back. He has a lot of friends. Let's see if there are any good doctors from the people who can introduce two of them to my daughter-in-law."

"That's the only way to go." The old concubine sighed, seeing Xin Nian sitting at the bottom, staring at Liao shi, she wondered, "Eh? What is this? Is there something wrong with Jiaru's face? "
