Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 61 Liu Xiniang presents a red crystal gold bracelet (1)
The gifts happen to be eight pieces in pairs, which is auspicious for giving in the twelfth lunar month.

The three men came forward and bowed to Mrs. Qu, respectfully said: "I have seen the old lady."

Among the three, Qu Shi had met two brothers, and the other was the little guy's uncle.

The two brothers' surname is Qin, and the whole family is in business.

Qin Da is the next head of the Qin family.Apart from being able to do business, Qin Er is good at reading. He passed the examination as a scholar in the same field as Qu Jiujiu and his son, and plans to take the government examination in two years.

The little guy's uncle is surnamed Hu, and outsiders call him "Hu Shuangxi" because he has a smiling face.His family's business has been in business for several generations, and it has more wealth than the Qin family.

It turned out that the new bride Qin Xiaomei went to Hu's house to pay homage and get married smoothly that day. The next day Hu Shuangxi learned that the little guy fell into the water, and like her, she was very grateful to Li Jingjing for donating medicine to save him.

So when Miss Qin returned home, Hu Shuangxi discussed with her first and second brothers-in-law, bought a gift and made an appointment to come to thank Li Jingjing today.

The little guy and his son will not only come once, but will come to visit Li Jingjing every year in the future, and will always be grateful for her life-saving grace.

Seeing that there were no adult men in the Li family, several people didn't want to disturb them, so they sat down for a while and then left.

Li Jingjing walked up to the little guy, and said to Qin Er seriously: "Uncle, I will teach my little brother a method, as long as he listens to me and insists on doing it every day, he will be able to completely get rid of the root of heartache when he is 15 years old."

Qin Er had been so worried about this matter that he couldn't sleep for a few days, and he was overjoyed when he heard the news, so he specially asked Mrs. He to fetch the Four Treasures of the Study, and wrote down every word of what Li Jingjing said on the paper.

Li Jingjing said slowly: "Little brother, you can't run fast now, you can only trot."

The little guy's peach blossom eyes were lowered, and he lowered his head with a little inferiority.

Li Jingjing felt pity for the little guy whose mother died early and was in poor health, and said softly: "From tomorrow onwards, after half an hour after dinner, you will walk quickly on a gentle road. Start with one mile and gradually increase. Only increase by ten feet every time, walk every day without interruption, persist for three years, you change to jogging, or start from one mile, persist for five years, change to fast running, and when you are 15 years old, you will no longer suffer from heartache and your body will be very healthy .”

The little guy has an excellent memory, and he actually recounted the words verbatim.

Qu praised: "This little boy is really smart, study hard in the future, and when he grows up, he will definitely be the top student in high school."

He looked at the little guy with more content, asked Qin's family to wait, and went to the bedroom to give Li Yunxiao a new suit, a new pair of shoes, and a new wolf fur hat, and said softly : "It's cold in winter, you have to wear a hat to protect your head when you go out."

The little guy was extremely happy, and saw Qin Er nodding before accepting it, and put on the gray-black wolf fur cap on the spot.

He was born handsome, with peach blossom eyes that are lively and energetic. Wearing a wolf fur hat, he is very cute and handsome, and his temperament is no worse than that of a wealthy young man in Tanzhou Prefecture.

Li Yunxiao reached out and hugged He's thigh, raised his face, and said angrily: "Mother, you bought it for me, don't give it to him!"

The little guy gripped the fur cap tightly with one hand, and put the other on top of the new clothes.

He Shi hugged Li Yunxiao who was about to cry, and smiled and asked the Qin family to take the things.

"My name is Qin Shanyi, and I'm seven years old. Thank you." The little guy hugged Li Jingjing, kissed her on the cheek, but lowered his head shyly.

When He Shi heard the name of the little guy, it must be Qin Er who specially named him with the word "memory" in memory of his dead wife.

Li Yunxiao cried like a volcanic eruption: "Don't kiss my sister. My sister is mine!"

He Shi hugged Li Yunxiao tightly, not letting him jump down and beat Qin Shanyi, and sent the Qin family away amidst his cries.

When the Li family returned to the main room, Qu Shi and He Shi counted the presents, they were all shocked.

There are two big bamboo baskets of time-honored snacks, one box is eight kinds of [-]-jin high-quality pastries, and the other is four kinds of [-]-jin dried fruits.

The two pieces of cloth are the finest pure-colored silk from Suzhou Mansion, one is majestic royal blue, and the other is exquisite and luxurious purple.

Twenty catties of cuttlefish, sea cucumber, scallops, shrimps, and dried abalone are contained in the round rattan basket half a person's height.

Two pairs of shoe boxes from Tanzhou Fu's time-honored brand are full of high-end girls' shoes with silk embroidered gold silk with thousand-ply bottoms.

The exquisite black and red lacquer box was actually containing a pure gold headgear and hair, two hairpins, two swings, a slanted comb, a pair of earrings, a necklace, and a pair of bracelets. There are a total of ten pieces, exquisite and elegant, glittering with gold, and imposing in wealth, which is enough to make a dowry for the daughter of a wealthy family in the county.

The Li family had just been to the most prosperous commercial street in Tanzhou Prefecture. Qu’s family said: “The gold ornaments alone are worth 200 taels of silver, the top-quality silk is worth 40 taels of silver, and the dried seafood is also worth 500 taels of silver. I’m afraid it’s nearly [-] taels of silver together.”

He Shi said softly: "Mother, you think this gift is too heavy."

Li Jingjing smiled and said: "Grandma, my mother returned the gift. My mother gave Brother Qin the clothes and leather hats made by herself. This is our family's heart."

Li Yunxiao shouted: "You are not allowed to call Qin Shanyi your elder brother."

Li Jingjing pretended not to hear, Li Yunxiao ran out of the main room angrily.

He smiled and said: "Sister Jing is right." Then he went to Qu Shi and said, "They thank sister Jing for saving Qin Shanyi's life. In their hearts, Qin Shanyi's life is a priceless treasure."

He Shi went out of the hall to chase Li Yunxiao.

Qu Shi gave Li Jingjing the gold ornaments and two bolts of high-quality silk to lock up, and said with a smile: "Sister Jing, I will give you a dowry in the future."

"I don't want to get married. I want to stay at home with grandma." Li Jingjing hugged Qu's coquettishly, and said: "The royal blue silk is for the new year's clothes for father, uncle, brother, and Xiao Yazi, and the purple one is for the new year." Grandma, mother, I made New Year's clothes."

Qu Shi touched the extremely silky silk with a faint light, and said softly: "This is the finest silk."

Li Jingjing shook her head and said, "Grandma, there will be more in the future. Let's make these into new clothes for the New Year."

Qu Shi Xiangfang nodded and said, "I'll make a suit for your grandfather too."

Li Jingjing has never seen cheap grandpa since she was born.It seems that the Chinese New Year is coming, and the cheap grandpa has not arrived, and the letter has not arrived.

A sunny day in the last ten days of the twelfth lunar month.

The old couple on the passenger ship came to Qujia Village in a hired donkey cart, paid homage to Li Jingjing's early years, thanked the medicinal wine for curing rheumatic leg diseases, and sent five catties of dried golden shredded jujubes, five catties of pine mushrooms, Five catties of dried fungus, five catties of smoked roe deer meat, two small bags of hair vegetables, and two jars of Laobaigan.

The old woman laughed and said, "It's not worth any money, it's just a wish."

The old man even said bluntly: "My son and daughter live near the Tanzhou wharf, and they are all engaged in a small business selling northern food. These are taken from their family for nothing."
