Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 10
Lin felt that this sentence was a trap, so she didn't dare to answer it.

The He family said indifferently: "There are more than [-] people in the village who work in Taiqing Temple, including the son of the old patriarch. Do you think they are not as good as three-year-old little boy?"

Lin's eyes rolled, and she hurriedly said, "That's not what I meant."

He stared fixedly at Lin and said: "Then why do you belittle Changsheng? Fortunately, he still respectfully calls you sister-in-law!"

In the past, Mrs. Lin targeted her, but she didn't bother to pay attention. This time, Mrs. Lin dared to say that her husband Li is honest, so she wanted to fight back.

When Lin Shi was stared at by He Shi, she felt timid and didn't dare to look at it directly, and said: "I'm just talking casually."

The conversation between the two in the yard was low, and the people in the main room did not hear it.

Li Yunqing came out of the kitchen, held up a piece of greased paper pasted with red pastry paper, and said loudly on purpose: "Auntie's cooking is certainly not bad, and her craftsmanship is even better than that of the Zhang family pastry chef in Taihe Town."

When he was shopping in the town this morning, he saw a person with Lin's back coming out of the pastry shop, and yelled several times, but the person ran away without looking back.

He felt strange then.

Just now he saw a corner of oiled paper in the wooden garbage barrel in the kitchen, reached out to pull it out, and pulled out the oiled paper with Zhangjia cake red paper on it, and the paper was still stained with moon cake scum.

He guessed that Lin's moon cakes were not made at all, but bought from Zhang's bakery.

Lin's complexion changed drastically, and he ran over, almost fell, snatched the greased paper from Li Yunqing's hand and tore it to pieces.

Li Yunqing saw that he guessed right, smirked and stretched out his fingers to shave his face, and said: "I'm just talking casually." Yuan Zi returned Lin's words to her.

Lin said angrily, "If you are naughty again, I will ask your father to beat you."

Shaking his head, He took Li Yunqing's hand and walked into the main room, saw that the sumptuous meals on the two tables of the Eight Immortals had been set, and everyone was at the table, so he let Li Yunqing sit at the men's table, and she sat at the women's table.

Lin's expression was unnatural when she entered the main room, Deng stared at her, then stared at the plum blossom hairpin on her head, and tried not to scold her in public.

After sitting down, Mrs. Lin glanced quickly at her husband, Qu Changjiu, who was sitting at the next table, and saw that he had a stern face and tightly pursed lips.

She was so unhappy that she also hated Li Yunqing.

Li Jingjing whispered in He's ear: "Moon cakes made by mother are the best. I like moon cakes made by mother the most."

He Shi Wan'er said softly: "Sister Jing is the most obedient and smartest, and my mother likes Miss Jing the most."

Qu Kuai blushed, stood up holding a wine bowl and said, "This Mid-Autumn Festival, our two families will gather together to eat good wine and good food."

Qu Jiujiu and Qu Kuaishou's grandson Qu Duo then picked up the wine bowl and recited the poem with "moon".

Qu Changjiu is 34 years old this year. Qu Kuai is looking forward to his son Jackie Chan. He doesn't want him to be an executioner, so he has been forcing him to study. It was not until the year before last that he was admitted to the academy in Liuyang County.

Qu Duo is the only son of Qu Jiujiu and Lin. He is 17 years old this year. His talent in reading is slightly higher than Qu Jiujiu. When he was young, he went to the school in Taihe Town. Last year, he was admitted to the academy in Liuyang County and studied with Qu Jiujiu. .

They came back this time to tell Qu Kuaishou that the imperial court ordered the scientific expedition to start next spring.

Lin believes that her husband and son will be admitted as scholars next year, which is a hundred times better than Li Laoshi who is a bookkeeper and Li Yunqing who is a drug apprentice.

She has become the wife of a scholar, the mother of a scholar, and her status is higher than that of the He family, so today she is wearing a gold hairpin in a high-profile way to make the He family angry.

Seeing Qu's gaze, Li Qubing lowered his head and said nothing, elbowed Li Yunqing who was sitting next to him, and said in a low voice, "Qing Yazi, tell me."

Li Yunqing stood up generously and said: "I wish all elders, brothers, sisters-in-law, brothers and sisters auspicious Mid-Autumn Festival."

Qu Kuaishou said with a smile: "Qing Yazi didn't go to Taiqing Temple for nothing."

Li Jingjing held the rice bowl in both hands and said, "Brother, I wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival!"

Li Yunqing nodded to his sister, and continued: "The sea rises and the moon rises, and the sky is at this moment. I wish my grandfather who is thousands of miles away and my father who is tens of miles away a safe and blessed Mid-Autumn Festival."

Not only Qu Kuaishou, but also Qu Jiujiu and his son applauded.

Qu Changjiu praised: "Qing Yazi's poems must have been taught by his younger siblings. It's a pity that his younger siblings are women, otherwise he will definitely be able to pass the high school if he takes the scientific examination next year."

The speaker has no intention and the listener has the heart.He's gaze dimmed and he didn't know what he was thinking.Lin's heart overturned ten jars of vinegar, and she turned her head and cast a glance at Qu Changjiu with great resentment.

Qu Duo deliberately explained to the grandma and the guests sitting at the next table: "These two lines of poems were written by a great poet hundreds of years ago. Qing Yazi recited them now, and it fits the situation."

There were tears in Qu's eyes, but she had something to say but she didn't know where to start.

Deng patted Qu's back and comforted him, "Sister, my brother-in-law will be back next Spring Festival."

Li Jingjing leaned her little head on Qu's arm and said, "Grandma, I'm hungry, can I have some vegetables?"

Li Yunxiao responded at the table next to him: "I'm already hungry."

After three glasses of wine, Qu Kuai started to talk more, and asked Li Yunqing: "If you want to study, I will write to your grandfather and ask him to allow you to leave Taiqing Temple and go to school."

Li Yunqing glanced at the 34-year-old Qu Changjiu who was still relying on his family to support him, and thought about it: "Grandpa, I still listen to my grandfather and stay in Taiqingguan."

Qu Kuai looked at Li Qubing and asked, "Qubing, do you want to go to school?"

Li Qubing raised his head and said, "I want to go to Taiqing Temple."

Lin looked contemptuously, and said: "Qubing Yazi, you read good books, you can be a scholar, a scholar, a champion, a high-ranking official, earn endless money, and honor your ancestors. You can't be like your brother doing odd jobs in the temple and being punished by others." handle."

Deng wished to sew Lin's thin mouth shut, and shouted, "Eat vegetables!"

More than ten years ago, Qu Kuaishou couldn't be an executioner. With a bad reputation, he ran into trouble everywhere in the county to do business and find a job. Qujia Village built houses and bought land, and lived a comfortable life envied by the tribe.

It is no exaggeration to say that everything that the Qu family has now is given by the Li family.

Knowing this, Mrs. Lin belittled the Li family members face to face, which is an unethical rhythm.

"Qubing boy, you can't go to Taiqing Temple." Qu Kuaishou hesitated to speak.

Taiqing Temple is full of men, and it is easy for people to like masculinity in that kind of place.His beautiful, weak and delicate little nephew can't go there.

Qu said slowly: "Qubing Yazi will stay at home for a few more years before going to school."

Of her two sons, Li Qubing looks the most like Li Bing and is the youngest son, and is the most favored by her.She knew that Li Qubing was a bit cowardly, but that was good too, he never caused trouble.She wanted him to stay by her side for a few more years.

Li Qubing said in a rare and firm voice: "I don't want to go to school. I want to go to Taiqingguan to earn money for my family like my brother and Qing Yazi."
