Chapter 3 Blood is thicker than water

While Yuzhu'er was sleeping, Jiang Ansu went to invite Dr. Ji from Huichun Hall. Dr. Ji was well-known in the capital eleven or twelve years ago, and he only hoped that he could take care of Yuzhu'er.

Doctor Ji had a lot of patients, Jiang Ansu's post was scheduled for tomorrow, and he knew that there was no rush, so he had a lot of things to do when he returned home, so he asked Mrs. Mu to take good care of Yu Zhu'er and went out.

Coming back this time, Jiang Ansu was appointed as the director of Dali Temple from a seventh-rank county magistrate in Shaoan City. From a sixth-rank official position, it took him eleven or twelve years to take such a small step, or he did not climb willingly. Instead, they were brought up by others.

Many people are well aware that Dali Siqing is the queen's elder brother. After all these years, even the emperor has not been able to touch him. It's just that there are not many people left in the queen's and prince's faction, but at this juncture, Yongyibo's mansion Get involved.

Uncle Yongyi's mansion has been defeated in recent years. Jiang Ansu thinks that it is probably because the Queen's faction can't find anyone to win over. They can't win over the big families, and they are afraid that they will focus on these small families that are easy to control or poor.

Jiang Ansu didn't want to have any opinion on the dispute between the two factions. This is a very normal thing in the court. He only knew that he had to take up the post. of.

In the afternoon of that day, Jiang Ansu went to Dali Temple to report for duty, and three days later he officially took up the post.

In the evening, the reception banquet was held in the lobby. Apart from the elders, the children also set up a table. There were quite a lot of children in the uncle’s house. Er is the youngest.

The eldest son Jiang Rui, who is seventeen this year, is engaged to be married in the spring of next year.The eldest daughter Jiang Yuning is fifteen.As for Master Dafang, he worked as the Bamboo Superintendent at Sinong Temple, under the eighth grade, in charge of planting bamboo reeds for the court and various government offices to make curtains, etc., and used bamboo shoots for the court to eat, a very idle official position.

Like Jiang Ansu, Master Dafang has no concubine.

The situation of the second room is more complicated. Both Mr. Jiang and Mr. Jiang Er belonged to the old lady. At first, the old lady doted on Mr. Jiang Er a little bit, but in the end, he was spoiled a bit. He has been at home all these years. A wife and a concubine.

The second wife, Mrs. Tao, has a son and a daughter. The first son Jiang Yu is fifteen years old this year, the first daughter Jiang Yuxiang is ten years old, and Aunt Hong also has a son and one daughter. Two years older, this year is only five years old.

Counting, there are six boys and four daughters in the Yongyibo Mansion, and the descendants are really prosperous.

Anyway, when Mrs. Mu came over to eat with Yuzhu'er in her arms, she saw that the room was full of people, and Yuzhu'er's head grew big. When Mrs. Mu introduced everyone to her one by one, her brain began to hurt, and in the end she just remembered a few words. A face, the name of the person is completely forgotten.

Fortunately, she is young, and she is still a fool in everyone's eyes, so it doesn't matter if she can't remember, just concentrate on eating.She was very well-behaved when eating, and her appetite was good. She ate a small bowl of meat porridge, some vegetarian dishes, fish, and finally drank a small bowl of sweet soup. The old lady who provoked her frequently praised her, "Yuzhu has such a good appetite , easy to feed, long white and tender is really attractive. Thinking of Yuning's small mouth when she was a child, she didn't eat this or that. She was as thin as a monkey. Fortunately, she got older , I ate a lot, and my face is round, if it looks like a little monkey, it will make my grandmother feel bad."

"Grandmother." Yuning said coquettishly, "You are not allowed to tell me embarrassing things in front of your younger brothers and sisters." She looks like her mother, Lin, with an oval face and moist eyes. She is 15 years old and is already a slim girl.After rubbing some powder on his face, he could still see the blue shadows under his eyes, obviously he hadn't had a good rest in the past few days.

Jiang Yuning is the concubine's daughter and also the daughter of Jiang's parents. She will enter the palace to choose a concubine in a few days. She is the first girl in the Jiang family, and she is especially liked by the old lady. She has been raised by the old lady's side since she was a child. Needless to say, love.Knowing that she was going to enter the palace to choose a concubine, the old lady cried very sadly. She felt that the palace was not a good place, and she only hoped that the daughters of the Jiang family would find a good husband instead of a place like the palace that cannibalize people.

Everyone in the big house knew that the palace was not a good home.

When the old lady thought of this, the smile on her face faded a little, and suddenly she remembered something again, and said to Mu, "The third daughter-in-law, the day after tomorrow is fifteen, and all the female relatives in the family have to go to Guangji Temple to offer incense. You are also prepared to take Yuzhu with you when the time comes, I heard that Master Guangji of Guangji Temple has great powers, and it may be helpful to Yuzhu."

The wives of the first room and the second room didn't speak. They all knew that Master Guangji was so easy to see there. Master Guangji set up a big lottery tube in the temple. , if you can win the lottery, you can get the string of Buddhist beads worn by Master Guangji for decades. This string of Buddhist beads was placed in the temple as a town temple. Buddha beads have never been sought.

This string of Buddhist beads has been in Guangji Temple for several years, and no one has ever drawn that lucky lottery.There are even fewer people who can meet Master Guangji. People like them may only be able to meet Master Guangji only if they draw the lucky lottery.

Moreover, this big lottery can only be opened on the fifteenth of each month, and each person has one chance.

The Mu family had been in Shao'an City for these years, and now they just came back, so naturally they had never heard about the lucky lottery, but she had only heard of the name of Master Guangji, since she was a child, she knew that there was such an eminent monk, it was amazing.

Mrs. Mu said, "Daughter-in-law will remember, and I will take Yuzhu to Guangji Temple with my mother in the future."

The old lady didn't know what was going on, she just wanted to give Sanfang something to look forward to.Besides, the old lady felt a little guilty about Yuzhu. Sanfang lived thousands of miles away in Shao'an City all these years. It stands to reason that Yuzhu's story should not be spread in the capital. Back then, Jiang Ansu wrote a letter back home, slightly mentioning Yuzhu's situation. This kind of thing must not be hidden from the old lady at home.

The old lady felt uncomfortable after reading it. She didn't have much affection for Sanfang. This kind of discomfort just felt that Sanfang had a silly girl, which would affect the other girls in Jiang's family.She told the old lady who was serving beside her about this matter, who would have wanted to be heard and passed on by a little maid, and finally sold the little maid who was beaten to death.

After dinner, the old lady also let everyone go back to their rooms.

Yuzhu'er sleeps by herself at night, and there is a servant girl who takes care of her specially. Mrs. Mu coaxed Yuzhu'er to sleep before going back to her room.

Early the next morning, the old lady had just had breakfast and sent two bolts of silk, a set of hats, a golden longevity lock, and several vases.The color of the silk is a bit old, and the style of hair and face is outdated. Neither the vase nor the golden lock is a new style. The nun who came to deliver the things said, "I hope the third wife will not dislike the things that the old lady asked the old slave to send. The life lock is for the fourth girl, the old lady said, she hasn't taken care of the fourth girl in these years, and in the future, the wife should take the fourth girl to the old lady to get close to her."

Mrs. Mu knew that the current situation in Bofu should be difficult. Yesterday morning, the old lady gave the jadeite bracelet on her wrist to Yuzhu'er, and at the reception banquet in the evening, she saw a waxy bracelet on the old lady's wrist, which was better than the one given to Yuzhuer Emerald bracelets are much worse.

At this moment, the old lady was still delivering things to the third room, so she felt a little sorry. She still knew why the old lady was like this. At the beginning, the matter of Yuzhu was passed on by the maid around the old lady, so the old lady felt sorry, and then want to make up.

No matter what the things were, the elder did not dare to resign, so the Mu family asked people to put away the things, thinking about buying a few more jewelry when Yuning, the big house, entered the palace.

As soon as he put away his things, Doctor Ji came over. Doctor Ji is an old man in his 60s and [-]s. Mrs. Mu came to see Doctor Ji with his full Yuzhuer in his arms. When he saw the baby Bai Nen, Doctor Ji laughed first, " The girl looks really pretty."

Mrs. Mu said thank you, and then explained Yuzhu'er's symptoms to Dr. Ji clearly.

After getting the pulse, Doctor Ji frowned slightly, "Miss Si's pulse condition is calm, and there is no sign of congealing, and my wife also said that Miss Si cried a few days ago and made a sound. According to the old man, Miss Si's pulse condition Not stupid, not dumb."

"Then, Doctor Ji thinks why Jiao Jiaoer refuses to talk." This was the first time Mu's family heard such a diagnosis in three years, and it was inevitable that they would be excited.

Doctor Ji checked Yu Zhu'er carefully again, and finally shook his head, "This old man can't tell clearly, maybe it's just that the fourth girl is late, don't worry, madam, and slowly guide the fourth girl to speak, the old man believes that the fourth girl will be able to speak." Get better."

Yuzhu'er was in good health, and Doctor Ji didn't even prescribe any medicine when he left, but asked Mrs. Mu to guide her a lot.

Mrs. Mu was still disappointed, sent her away, and went back to her room to hold Yu Zhuer and teach her how to speak, "Jiao Jiaoer, I am mother, please call me mother."

Yuzhu'er only opened her eyes and looked at Mrs. Mu, without saying a word. Mrs. Mu looked at her daughter's ignorant eyes, and when her eyes turned red, tears fell down her cheeks. She refused to cry, for fear that the maids outside would hear her , covering his mouth, tears rolling down the back of his hands and dripping onto the skirt of his clothes.

Yuzhu'er looked uncomfortable, her heart throbbed with pain, her blood was thicker than water, how could she bear to see these family members who loved her feel sad, but could she accept their affection?Could it be that as soon as she accepted it, they would leave her one by one like family members in the previous life.

In the past two days, but I had a little thought of wanting to be close to my family, and the sixth brother was beaten to blood on the boat. Will she call mother today and bring blood to mother?
Seeing Mu's crying sadly, Yuzhu'er couldn't utter the mother's cry, and quietly buried her in Mu's arms, her eyes red.

On the next morning, after breakfast early in the morning, the Jiang family members packed up and went to Guangji Temple in a carriage.

This time there are the old lady, the eldest wife Lin, the second wife Tao and Aunt Hong, the third wife Mu, the eldest girl Jiang Yuning, the second girl Jiang Yuxiang, the third girl Jiang Yulan, the fourth girl Jiang Yuzhu, and several waiters. maid.

Such a group of people couldn't fit in a carriage. Jiang's family only had one carriage, and they even rented one.

Mrs. Mu held Yuzhu'er in her arms, and listened to her sister-in-law talking all the way, all her mind was on Master Guangji.
