Chapter 5 Let’s make a good relationship

Ning Ruyan glanced at Bai Zhi, and then lay down on the bed. I'm afraid it was Pearl or another second-class girl Hu Bo who sent the letter. In that case, let's meet her.

Bai Zhi rubbed her eyes red and went out: "Mother Zhong."

"Bai Zhi, how is the eldest lady?" Grandma Zhong twitched the corner of her mouth.

"The whole person is groggy, neither talking nor eating. If this continues, I'm afraid... wuwu..." Bai Zhi held the handkerchief and started crying, but where the other party couldn't see her, her eyes almost flew away. God, I was really blind before. I thought the people in the General's Mansion were nice to their eldest lady, but now I realize that they are all hypocritical.

"Doctor Sun, please show me to Madam." Madam Zhong gestured to an old doctor next to her with a somewhat respectful attitude.

Dr. Sun used to be a military doctor with General Chiang Kai-shek, but later he was injured and could no longer follow him, so he came to work as a government doctor.

Doctor Sun took a handkerchief and put it on Ning Ruyan's wrist, then began to diagnose her pulse. After a long time, she stood up and said, "Madam, she is depressed."

"Then what should we do?" Bai Zhi was a little anxious upon hearing this, "Please ask Dr. Sun to prescribe the medicine."

"Hey, it's medicine that's three-part poison. If Madam can't think of it herself, no medicine will work." Dr. Sun shook his head.

"Uuwu, madam, you can't abandon the slaves..." Bai Zhi simply started to cry. She always gave people a very stable feeling. She rarely spoke loudly or cried at ordinary times. When she cried at this time, it made people feel sad. He was more convinced and felt that Ning Ruyan was really in a bad situation.

Aunt Zhong could only sigh, and after saying a few words of comfort, she sent Doctor Sun off.

"Baizhi, go to my warehouse later and get a century-old wild ginseng to deliver to Dr. Sun."

"Ah?" Bai Zhi was stunned, "Miss, why are you giving me such an expensive thing?" There were two hundred-year-old ginseng in the eldest daughter's dowry, but they were too precious, and they were life-saving things.

"Don't ask, just do it." Ning Ruyan smiled. Doctor Sun was an upright person. In his previous life, he couldn't stand the people in the general's mansion being treated as parasites. He mentioned this to Jiang Changgong several times. , and even warned himself not to be so spoiled by those people, but he was later kicked out of the General's Mansion by Jiang Changgong.

By the time she got the news, his wife had died and he was missing.

Dr. Sun's wife is weak and needs century-old ginseng for medicinal purposes. However, century-old ginseng is too expensive and very scarce. His income cannot afford ten consecutive courses of ginseng treatment, so he can only buy one or two ginseng tablets occasionally. I was trying to cheer up my wife, but later I lost the income from the General’s Office and couldn’t even afford the occasional slice or two.

In this life, she wanted to help him, which could be regarded as a good relationship.

Bai Zhi nodded, turned around and went out. She came back in half an hour and said that Dr. Sun was extremely grateful and that she would just give him any instructions he might have in the future.

Ning Ruyan smiled noncommittally.

During lunch, Xiaohua came back and said, "Miss, a little beggar came to the concierge just now. He met Granny Zhong by name, gave her a letter and left. Xiaoshan followed."

"You're doing well, but it would be too rash to follow you like this."

"Don't worry, Miss. He's just going to see where the little beggar is, and he won't mess around." Xiaohua felt reassured about her younger brother.Ning Ruyan nodded and asked her to go down to eat first.

Not long after lunch, Xiaoshan ran over with sweat on his forehead: "Miss, that little beggar is begging at the West Street entrance. I gave him a handful of candies and two silver beans, and he told me He said that a man with his face covered gave him a handful of coins to deliver the message, but he couldn't see clearly, but he would recognize it if he saw it in the future, and he said he would inform me once he recognized it."

"You did a good job, but whatever you do in the future, you must protect your own safety first." Ning Ruyan smiled.

"Don't worry, Miss, I'm smart." Xiaoshan smiled, and then hurriedly closed his mouth because he was missing a tooth.

Ning Ruyan smiled and asked Bai Zhi to bring him a box of Wosi Candy and a plate of shortbread cookies: "Go ahead."

"Thank you, Miss. By the way, I saw Sister Pearl crying outside just now." Xiaoshan said again before leaving.

Ning Ruyan glanced at Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi picked up a plate of snacks and stood up: "I'm going to comfort Sister Pearl. It's just a waste of such a good snack."

Ning Ruyan couldn't help but laugh, and the girl also became cramped.

Early the next morning, Banxia appeared with two dark circles under her eyes: "I made four kinds of incense overnight, with different scents and different effects... Miss, see which one you like, and I will make it again."

"Thank you for your hard work." Ning Ruyan patted Banxia's shoulder, "Let's leave it alone for now. We'll talk about it when we get back. Now you and Pearl go to Shoukang Yuan with me." This girl's state can be seen even without makeup. Gauntness is coming.

Bai Zhi personally went over and called Pearl over: "Zhenzhu, the eldest lady must have a girl next to her, so I mentioned it to the eldest lady. You can't embarrass me."

Pearl was very happy and repeatedly expressed that she would do a good job.

Amber, who was in the same room as Pearl, glanced at Pearl's back inexplicably, and then lowered his eyes.

"My poor son." Huo, who was leaning on the Arhat bed in the main room of Shoukang Yuan, saw Ning Ruyan coming in, and her eyes suddenly turned red. "You said that if he is gone, how will we orphans and widowed mothers live in the future?" ah?"

Ning Ruyan rolled her eyes in her heart, how to live?Your son is living a comfortable life outside. Maybe even your eldest grandson is already in Susu's belly now. But now he can't show it, he can only cry, and he may even be out of breath from crying soon. After all, it was hard not to cry when I thought about the ten years I spent working as a cow and a horse in my previous life, and how I ended up dying a good death.

Others present also cried out of breath again.

"Okay, stop crying, Ning. We will depend on each other from now on." Huo quickly wiped away her tears and raised her hand to pat Ning Ruyan's back, "A-Nian died for the country. The court will never forget us. You are the legitimate son and eldest daughter-in-law, and this family will depend on you from now on."

Ning Ruyan stopped crying, but she still sobbed: "Mom, my daughter-in-law became a widow on the day she got married. How can she support the general's mansion? I still missed her a little bit before, but now I don't miss my daughter-in-law anymore. I only hope that the Ancient Buddha of Qingdeng will guard Wutong Courtyard, pray for my husband every day, and wish him early bliss..."
