Chapter 30 A woman, a woman

"So that person's name is Bai Xiaoliu!" Jin Liu asked curiously while remembering the information that the eldest lady said casually.

The eldest lady glanced at Jin Liu, smiled lightly and said: "You think this name is too commonplace, it is the old lady of the general's mansion, who is afraid that he will not be able to support him, so she specially gave him a cheap name, and she also specially asked the family members They all call him 'Xiao Liu' and 'Liu Er' directly, even the emperor calls him Xiao Liu when he sees him!"

There is not only the third sister-in-law of the princess, but also the emperor's brother-in-law in the family. No wonder that kid is so arrogant!Jin Liu was silent in her heart, but she didn't answer any more. She knew that the Da Furen asked her to live in seclusion, not just to chat with her about other people's daily life.

"However, I was a little surprised. So you also know medical skills. Did...your father teach you?" The eldest lady couldn't help asking, and turned to look at Jin Liu.

"No." Jin Liu shook his head, "Father has never been to the West Side Courtyard, nor has he been to the Furong Court."

The eldest lady breathed a sigh of relief, she just asked tentatively, she knew the whereabouts of the elder master after he returned home, but only when she heard it from Jin Liu's mouth, she felt at ease, "Then Your medical skills are..."

The eldest lady asked again and again, Jin Liu seemed embarrassed, lowered her head and twisted her hands and said: "Actually, I don't know much about medical skills, I just read a few medical books. There are prescriptions and herbs for detoxifying snake poison in the medical books. It was an emergency. I I didn't think too much about it, so I decided to bleed Bai Xiaoliu on my own. When the princess asked me if I was sure that Caowu could detoxify Bai Xiaoliu's snake poison, I was actually very nervous, but it was just because there were so many people at that time. Being there, I didn't want to lose the face of our envoy's mansion, so..."

"Which medical book, can you show me?"

"Okay, I'll go back and get it now." Jin Liu raised his head and said.

The eldest lady was just trying to see if Jin Liu was lying, and seeing that she really dared to go back to get it, she believed her a little more, waved her hand and said, "Forget it, I don't have the energy to look at those right now. The prescription for snake venom, do you remember other prescriptions?"

"I can memorize a few prescriptions for some common diseases."

The eldest lady nodded and said: "As the daughter of the envoy's family, it is not impossible to know a few commonly used prescriptions. Your eldest sister was able to dry herbs with your father when she was five years old, but No matter what you say, it’s also a girl’s house, and it’s not good to have a smell of medicine on your body. It’s because of this that I kept stopping your eldest sister from following your father to dry the medicine. It’s the same for you and me. It’s good to spend some time on women’s reds, Qiao Yun told me before, you have been there for more than half a month, and you still can’t even embroider a single flower.”

"Yes, Jin Liu remembered." Jin Liu lowered her head deeply ashamed.

The eldest lady responded with satisfaction, took a look at Jin Liu, and originally wanted to say a few words to her, after all, Jin Liu has helped the Minister of Rites today, that is, helped her natal sister, but she saw Aunt Mei came in from the door, holding a soup bowl she was very familiar with, she was in no mood to say anything more, and waved to Jin Liu, "You have worked hard today, go back and rest!"

Jin Liu was amazed by the strange fragrance smelled from the tip of his nose, and when he heard the words, he agreed, turned his head and sucked his nose, glanced at the soup bowl in Aunt Mei's hand, and then walked out with a normal expression.

"The Da Furen really treats Miss San as her own, not only taking her out, but also letting her talk when she comes back." As soon as Jin Liu left, Aunt Mei walked to the Da Furen holding a soup bowl.

"You don't know, if it wasn't for her today, something big would have happened." The eldest lady said with a frown as she watched Aunt Mei skillfully pour out a bowl of soup.

"I didn't realize that the third lady has such a great ability." Aunt Mei said in surprise: "Didn't Madam take the third and fifth misses to the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Mansion today? I don't know what's going on?"

"That's right, I just heard what Madam and Miss San said just now, but I don't know what's going on." When the eldest lady He Jinliu was speaking, Zhou's mother was embroidering a horse-face skirt for the eldest lady. Qun, upon hearing Aunt Mei's question, she also asked curiously.

The eldest madam was tired at first, but she was concentrating on the carriage, but when she regained her energy, she told everything about Jin Liu's rescue of Bai Xiaoliu and Lin Liuli today, holding her hands together after she finished speaking. Aunt Mei smiled lightly at the soup bowl that was handed over: "Actually, it's nothing, I asked just now, it's just a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse."

"Ma'am is right. Studying medicine is not an easy task. The third lady has such great abilities. She can cure diseases and save lives at a young age. It's just a blind cat meeting a dead mouse!" Aunt Mei agreed. Looking at the frowning lady who was drinking the soup, she asked with concern: "Madam, do you feel that today's soup is not as fishy as usual?" On the tray, he took down the light tea next to him and rinsed his mouth, then nodded suspiciously and said, "It seems that the fishy smell is no longer there, did you add something else to it?"

"Madam is wise, this servant has added ginger into it." Aunt Mei said with a smile.

"What!" The lady turned pale with shock, staring at Aunt Mei and said, "How can you add anything to it at will, don't you know what this soup is for? I've been drinking it for so long, if it's because of you What should I do if I make my own claim and waste all my previous efforts!"

Aunt Mei didn't expect that the lady would suddenly change her face, she quickly waved her hands in fright and said, "No, no, this servant only added ginger after asking that it wouldn't conflict with any of the herbs in this soup."

"Have you asked?" The eldest lady raised her eyebrows, her expression became even uglier, "Who did you ask?"

"Slave...Slave..."

"You're asking the master!" The lady sneered, and seeing Aunt Mei almost hit the teacup in her hand in panic, she confirmed her guess even more, suppressing the anger in her heart and said: "That's true, you are from the mansion. Aunt, you have been cooking soup for me for many years, and it is not wrong to ask about this soup when you are serving the master..."

"No ma'am, no!" Aunt Mei was startled, she put down her tea bowl and knelt down, "The servant did not serve the master, the master has a lot of business recently, so it is rare to come back to the mansion to talk to the madam, the slave is also I met the master in the mansion, and I have been thinking about my wife's affairs, so I asked a lot! This servant knows that I was wrong, and I will never dare to do it again next time!"

"So I blamed you wrong!" The eldest lady looked at Aunt Mei with a sharp look.

"Slaves dare not..." Aunt Mei hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to look at Da Furen, she is also a woman, and she used to be Da Furen's personal servant girl, she knew that what she was thinking could not escape Da Furen's eyes, so she could only tremble Tremblingly bearing the anger of the eldest lady.

"Ma'am, I just drank the medicine, so I can't get angry." Zhou's mother couldn't stand it anymore, she put down the horse face skirt in her hand, walked behind the eldest lady, helped her back to calm down, turned her head and said to Aunt Mei: "Aunt Mei, The servant said something that shouldn't be said, you know Madam's body best, how could you make Madam angry at this time!"

"What mother said is that the servant girl made a mistake." Aunt Mei quickly admitted her mistake, lying on the ground and not daring to get up.

Da Furen just loves you Aunt Mei's pitiful look, and thinking that Zhou's mother was right, she snorted coldly and said, "Okay, get out of here, don't be an eyesore to me."

"Yes, servant girl is leaving now!" Aunt Mei got up quickly as if she was relieved, and was about to go out.

"Wait!" The lady stopped her again, "Don't bring this soup in from now on, give it to Tourmaline outside!"

Aunt Mei was startled, the lady is trying to alienate herself!Thinking of how he had flattered and flattered him for such a long time, but in exchange for such a result, he suddenly felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart, nodded slowly, and backed out.

"Little showy hoof!" As soon as Aunt Mei left, the eldest lady cursed angrily, and sat on the soft couch in a daze, sulking, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this could not go on, and she asked Mother Zhou behind her, "Where is the tourmaline again?" It will be eighteen in a few days, right?"

Mother Zhou clapped her hands, and replied: "Biaxi and Miss San were born in the same birth, on the eighth day of the eighth day."

The eldest lady nodded, sighed a little unwillingly, and said: "Then find a day to tell her, I see that the master likes her quite a lot, these days the master has not gone to other places except to come to me, I can't lose him, so I'll just give him the tourmaline, I see that tourmaline is also obedient and sensible, I should know what my painstaking efforts are for."

"This..." Zhou's mother couldn't bear to think of Bixi's frightened bunny-like expression when she faced the old man. She looked up at the top of the old lady's head, and saw a white hair protruding from her black hair. His heart was touched, thinking that it would not be easy for her to maintain such a big family, so she nodded, "Yes, this servant has made a note."

The eldest lady knew that Zhou's mother was soft-hearted, but she was the one who could please people the most. Seeing that she agreed, she felt relieved, took a deep breath, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Outside the door, Tourmaline clung tightly to the door frame and slowly slid to sit on the ground... The matter of Jin Liu saving the sixth young master of the General's Mansion and the second lady of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites was intentionally forgotten by the Da Furen and Jin Xingxi. No one mentioned it, as if it hadn't happened, the two days in a row passed very peacefully, the next day was Jin Liu's birthday, Madam Ru still didn't announce it, she just planned to cook a sumptuous meal for Jin Liu in the yard, and then her mother The two women and a few close servants in the yard ate together. This evening, they were in Jinliu's room asking her what dishes she wanted to eat, and Zhizi ran in in a panic. As soon as he entered the door, before he had time to speak, he gasped.

"What's the matter? You're in a hurry." Jin Liu joked with a smile, having gotten used to Gardenia's flustered temper.

"Don't worry, take your time first." Seeing that Zhizi was in a hurry to speak, Mrs. Ru hurriedly said with a smile.

Zhi Zi waved her hands and shook her head, finally slowed down, and hurriedly said: "The... The Eldest Master is here!"

"My lord!" Jin Liu was still puzzled, but Mrs. Ru had already stood up all of a sudden, without even noticing that the hot tea in the tea bowl had spilled out.

"Mother!" Jin Liu hurriedly got up and took the tea bowl from Mrs. Ru's hand and put it aside, and took a handkerchief to help her wipe the reddish back of her hand, "Look, it's all red!"

However, Mrs. Ru pushed away Jin Liu's hand, stepped forward to pull Zhi Zi and asked nervously and eagerly: "You just said that the Elder Master is here?"

Zhi Zi had never seen Mrs. Ru so excited before, she took a look at Jin Liu, and nodded slowly, "When the maid came back from the big kitchen, she saw the old man walking towards our yard, so she hurried back to report. "

"It's really here!" Mrs. Ru walked around the room, touching her hair for a while, looking at her clothes for a while, but still felt dissatisfied and walked out the door, " I'd better go back and change my clothes."
