Second-hand lady

Chapter 64

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Wen Liang and Ru Cui got up early, and they went to the next room to see the child first, Hua Ruo said that she was still awake.The two knew that since the child was able to wake up for a while yesterday, they probably would wake up today, so they ordered people not to disturb her, and took them to the Ruixiangyuan to greet the old lady in the New Year.

The descendants of the Tan family all came to Ruixiangyuan early, and went to pay New Year's greetings to the old lady as soon as she woke up.

When Wen Liang and the others arrived, the Ruixiang Courtyard was already bustling with activity, and the old lady was sitting energetically at the top seat, chatting with her sons and wives.Just thinking about them, they came, but the old lady was happy.

"Grandmother, Zixiu is late." Wen Liang first apologized, and then said with a smile on his face: "The child woke up once last night, and the doctor said that if he can wake up, he should be fine in the future. Grandma, After the baby is ready, Zixiu asked her to come over to say hello to you, you are going to have a granddaughter again."

Wen Liang's words were very catering to the old lady's wishes, and he narrowed his eyes after saying yes, then he took Miss Rucui's hand and said: "You are a good person, take good care of the child, and bring it to me when she is well." Look. You, you have to take care of your body, there are many folk remedies for having children here, and soon, you will have children too..."

Miss Rucui accepted with a smile, without any impatience or grievance.

The female family members of the Tan family curled their lips secretly. The old lady's childbearing recipes were all made by her when she was young, and she kept them all the time. Except for the third daughter-in-law, all the daughters-in-law who married back later had children after entering the house. The old lady's folk recipe for childbirth has no chance to come out.Regardless of whether it is useful or not, it can be regarded as the old lady's heart. It seems that this daughter-in-law of the Wen family has the old lady's attention, and they can't show how much thought they have.

But the old men of the Tan family, who knew well that Miss Rucui was injured and unable to give birth, did not look sideways, as if they did not hear.Looking at Wen Liang's daughter-in-law again, seeing her smile on her face without the slightest reluctance, she was also relieved, for fear that the old lady would bring up this topic too much, and step on her sore feet to make her blame the old lady, It's not easy to be gentle at that time.Now it seems that it is a general knowledge.

In fact, when Wen Liang got married, several uncles of the Tan family also sent people to inquire. After all, this is the only child left by the younger sister of the first relative, and they are also concerned about it.In this way, we know the reason why Wen Liang married Rucui. Wen Liang said touchingly at the time, as if his wife would give up her life for him, and such a loving and righteous woman will never be found in the world.Wen Liang talked about Xia's goodness everywhere, but they were embarrassed to say anything more, and he was always a man with ideas, so they, as uncles, shouldn't point fingers at his marriage to annoy him.But at that time, Wen Liang concealed the fact that she was unable to bear children because of her injury, otherwise they would not have been so indifferent, perhaps they had already persuaded this nephew to accept him as a concubine to repay her life-saving grace.

The first day of the Lunar New Year was the time to visit relatives. The Tan family was a big family in Pingjin, and people from the family came to visit early in the morning to pay New Year's greetings.Wen Liang is not a descendant of the Tan family, so he doesn't need to be involved in the matter of seeing him off.After meeting the old lady, the couple went back to Piaoxiangyuan together.

As soon as he returned to Piaoxiangyuan, a servant from the Tan family came to inform the doctor that he was coming.I saw the children wake up yesterday, although the time was short, it made them happy, so I sent someone to invite the doctor to have a look at them early in the morning.

The doctor took the child's pulse, checked it again, and congratulated them with a smile. The child's pulse was stable and not life-threatening.However, the child's body has already suffered a lot, and this will be another serious injury. From now on, he must take care of it carefully so as not to leave the root cause of the disease.

Ru Cui memorized it very carefully, and when she felt it was not enough, she taught Hua Jie to write down everything the doctor said in a notebook.

In the end, the doctor asked the female doctor who followed him to change the medicine for the wound on the child's back, and then gave her an injection. After a while, the child woke up faintly, more energetic than last night, at least he could recognize people.

"Ma'am..." the child called out to Ru Cui, and fell into a coma for five or six days, his already thin face became even more frighteningly thin, and his eyes looked particularly big.

Miss Rucui was full of maternal love at this time, she gently cut her hair, and said with a smile: "Are you hungry, let's eat something first."

The cooking has already been simmered in a small stove, and some lily and wolfberry are added. It is soft and glutinous, which is just right for the patient's fragile stomach.The child could only lie down because of the injury on her back, so Ru Cui asked someone to bring a big pillow under her to make her lie down more comfortably, and then took the porridge brought by the maid and fed her bit by bit.

After drinking the decoction for several days in a row, the taste in the mouth was bitter, and nothing tasted good, but the child felt that this bowl of porridge was delicious in the world, and she shed tears as she ate it, choking her throat , Miss Rucui was so startled that she hurriedly stroked her back and fed her water, and asked her if the pain was severe.

Although the child didn't know what happened afterwards, everything changed when he woke up. It was already the middle of winter, but the room was warm like spring. There was a soothing fragrance in the air, and the soft and delicate silk was under his body. Facing the mattress, eating soft and glutinous polished rice porridge, even when the parents were there, they were not so luxurious.Now I see the lady who kindly rewarded me with a bowl of porridge and eggs in the temple to feed me kindly. I don’t know that those robbers finally suffered retribution this time. She has avenged her parents. The lady was touched by her kindness, and she was grateful for her act of saving lives at that time.

"What's going on here?"

At this time, Wen Liang, who was sending the doctor out, came in, and seeing the child crying violently, he couldn't help asking in surprise.And looking at her crying, it was obvious that the tears were endless, but she gritted her teeth and kept silent. After crying for a long time, she was gasping for breath, Hua Jie and others hurriedly twisted a wet towel to wipe her face.

"Crying after eating, could it be that it hurts?" Ru Cui was also a little confused.

The child could hear what the two said, but at this moment, the crying was so loud that the ears were ringing and dizzy, and he couldn't speak, so he could only shake his head repeatedly.

Wen Liang thought of what the monks said about the child's parents being killed by robbers, and he struggled in the robber's den for two years, and felt a little pity in his heart, and also understood that the child cried so fiercely that he felt that his revenge was avenged. Vented out.Such a tenacious mind at such a young age, as well as being sensitive and alert, is a good seed.

After a while, the child fell asleep crying and only ate half a bowl of porridge.Seeing this, Ru Cui didn't wake her up, but ordered Hua Jie to prepare some food for her when she woke up.

Now that the child had woken up, Wen Liangrucui and both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Knowing she woke up, the elders of the Tan family also came to see her.Several aunts knew that this was Wen Liangshou's adoptive daughter, so they naturally gave face, and gave meeting gifts and New Year's red envelopes one after another. The child who got so much money for the first time opened his mouth wide in surprise, and then thanked her very sweetly.Seeing that she was happy, Hua Jie put it away in a box and put it in the drawer of the cabinet in front of the bed.

After two days, the child was finally able to get up, and the sleep time was much shorter, Wen Liang finally found time to talk to her.

Although Wen Liang is not a descendant of the Tan family, he has a good reputation. People in Pingjin City all came to visit him when he came back to Pingjin, and knew that he was now the prince's master, and they all wanted to bring their children to him to have a look. He accepted him as a student, so that not only the child's future is guaranteed, but also the family's face is honored, so Wen, who originally thought that he could spend a year easily, can only be dragged outside by several uncles to socialize frequently, and Miss Rucui is also taken away. Those female family members handed over the post to see you.

The number of times was too many, and both of them were a little impatient. In the end, they asked the Tan family to push away some entertainment on the grounds of taking care of the child, saying that after the child's injury was cured, they would personally invite them to come to get together. rest.The news about Wen Liang's adoptive daughter was also spread. Hearing that the child was injured, they sent condolence gifts one after another and piled them in the wing room where the child lived.

On this day, after Rucui fed the child and drank the medicine, she was in high spirits, and Wen Liang found time to come over.

Seeing Wen Liang, the child moved closer to Ru Cui, but Wen Liang didn't say anything when he saw it, and asked someone to move a chair to sit on the opposite side of the bed.

Wen Liang has a good reputation because of his outstanding appearance and gentle temperament. He has always been the focus of the crowd no matter where he was since he was a child. Reject him, ignore him.But Wen Liang found that this child was a little wary of him, but he was very close to his girl, her mouth was as sweet as honey, and even the elders and cousins ​​of the Tan family coaxed her to call her little girl. name.

They didn't know her name until after the child woke up. Her surname was Wen and her maiden name was Yanping.This name is elegant, not something that can be obtained by hunters in the mountains. Later, the child said that his father went to the town to find a fortune teller to get this name.

After hearing that the child's surname was Wen, the Tan family jokingly said that it was such a coincidence that the child was destined to be their child, so they didn't have to change their surname.The child also heard the Tan family's jokes at that time, and was very surprised, but Wen Liang didn't speak at that time, and she couldn't bear to say anything, but in the past two days, besides being tired of Ru Cui, she often looked at Wen Liang carefully.

Ever since he heard what the child was doing in the temple, Wen Liang knew that she had a lot of thoughts and didn't care. Since he decided to adopt her, he would take her back to the capital. It's also good to have a little heart.

"Yan Ping, how is your body? Is it still hurting today?" Wen Liang asked kindly.

Such an outstanding-looking man is so gentle and kind, no matter how cold and hard his heart is, it is hard to refuse.The child blushed, pulled Ru Cui's sleeves, and said, "It doesn't hurt that much today, it's just a little itchy."

Wen Liang smiled and said: "This is about to form a scar, and it will be a little itchy, so you have to hold back and don't scratch it with your hands."

Wen Liang asked some more questions, softly and kindly, and quickly put the child at ease.Although Wen Liang didn't know why the child was on guard against him, he knew how to focus on attacking the heart, and try to make the child relax as much as possible before turning the topic into the main topic.

"Yan Ping, you saved my wife's life, we owe you. Besides, my wife likes you, we husband and wife want to adopt you as an adopted daughter, are you willing?"

Although the child knew from the conversation of the women of the Tan family that they meant this, she was still a little dazed when she heard it now, and she didn't speak for a while, until the person sitting next to her touched her head and patted her. Her hand comforted her: "It's okay. If you don't want to call us parents, it's okay. We will still raise you and make you healthy and healthy. In the future, we will choose a good marriage for you and marry you. Who dares to bully you?" , let's let Mr. Wen play them to death."

The originally good atmosphere destroyed someone, Wen Liang rubbed his forehead in his heart, the child's sadness was mostly gone for a while, and he thought Miss Rucui's words were a bit weird.

"No, no!" The child said nervously, looked at Wen Liang, then at Ru Cui who was smiling at him, and whispered, "I'm happy."

After listening, both Rucui and Wen Liang breathed a sigh of relief, as long as they are willing.Wen Liang smiled and said: "Well, call your parents to come and listen."

The child hesitated for a while, then Fang called to them: "Father, mother."

Ru Cui responded with a crisp voice, and then gave her a big red envelope as a meeting gift. The child was very happy, and it seemed that she didn't get along well. Miss Ru Cui also understood that the child was a bit of a money lover, so she bought it with a big red envelope. The heart of a child, but the jade pendant engraved with the words "Wen Yanping" carefully prepared by Wen Liang is not so valued and liked.
