Chapter 666: Fond of the New, Disdainful of the Old - Lady L

itchy and uncomfortable. 。Li Laotai, rarely missing her granddaughter's distress, continued to worry. 。"What am I going to do We have so much land at home..." 。If there is a drought, then it's going...Naughty boys, they got out of bed in the morning, too busy to button up their cotton-padded coats, they ran to school with their books.

After school, I always try to find a chance to go to the river. 。Seeing the ice on the river solid, they went crazy and brought out their ice sleds, whips, and ice picks, shouting as they rushed to the river bank. 。Until it got dark, their mothers came looking for them, and they only reluctantly went home after having their ears pulled. 。The elderly, however, were willing to gather in Zhao Shu's courtyard, looking for a sheltered and sunny spot, and build a fire. 。Old brothers wove willow baskets with their hands, and talked about ancient and modern times with their mouths. 。Sometimes, when I'm feeling good, I'll have a drink in the evening and then go home with a slight buzz to sleep on a warm kang. 。Lao Hei and they have been back for over ten days now. 。They have all gained weight, slept well and full, and now their hearts are starting to feel restless again. 。That day, Lao Hei went to Li's courtyard to pay respects. When he saw the young master, he said, "County Lord, there are more than a month left before the New Year..." 。"We can't just sit around doing nothing, can we Is there anything you need me to do" Jia Yin found this amusing. There were truly people in the world who couldn't stand being idle. 。But she was also worried because there really weren't any good jobs available right now. 。It's too far to go to Chuanzhou Prefecture, I definitely won't be able to get back before the new year. 。While you can celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival outside, you cannot spend Chinese New Year away from your family. 。Even if you go to the nearby area, there's not much work to be done. 。She could only give Lao Hei a basket of fruit and let him go back first. 。Elder Li brought Mrs. Wen and Wenjuan to the kang to do needlework. When they heard about this, Mrs. Wen's heart skipped a beat. 。She told Jia Yin, “Fu Niuer, when Mr. Guo passed away, he told Wen Hao to move the remains of his parents here and rebuild the tomb together.” 。"Should we ask Wenhao If he's interested, he can go with Lao Hei and the others"Jia Yin's eyes lit up, and she nodded. 。Initially, the Guo family was buried by the people in their village. The tragic scene is still talked about by villagers today, and they can't forget it. 。If I could help Guo Wenhao bring back the remains of these poor people and give them a proper burial, the villagers would finally be free from this little worry. 。Okay, Master 。Ask him to check with Guo Wenhao. He was quite busy for over a month last year, so it would be worthwhile going to see him. 。Jia Yin nodded and said, “In winter, the weather is cold and travel difficult. But the same difficulties also apply to the barbarians. It's a good time to head north.” 。At that time, Lady Wen immediately asked Qiao’er to go back and have a look at their own estate. 。They moved to Suijin Beach and never went back. They also needed to keep an eye on the servants, in case they caused trouble without supervision. 。In the afternoon, Qiong's wife returned. 。"Madam, Miss, Master Wenhao said thank you to Miss for her willingness to lend manpower. He wants to follow the troop to Jiangbei and personally bring back his parents' remains." 。All expenses throughout the journey were borne by him, with an additional three hundred taels of silver for his trouble. 。" Jia Yin called Lao Hei over and told him about the situation. Lao Hei immediately agreed." 。They had fought in Jiangbei before and were very familiar with the place. 。Besides, this time it's about going into the mountains to retrieve a skeleton, which isn't a difficult task. 。So, they prepared for a day, and the next day Lao Hei's team, with Guo Wenhao, this little guy, set off quickly. 。Mr. Wen felt sorry for this young disciple, who was so young and had no one to rely on. He wanted to persuade him to stay, letting only Lao Hei and the others go into the mountains. 。But Guo Wenhao insisted on filial piety, Mr. Wen was unable to do so, he could only let him go. 。A light snowfall was falling, and on the Li family's dinner table, a large bowl of sauerkraut stewed with bone marrow had been added. 。

Family members serve up a bowl, sprinkle some chili flakes on top, drink it down, both sour and spicy, all the chills can be easily dispelled.

The renowned Doctor Zhang rarely ventured out of his small courtyard, but he came to the Li family's house for a celebratory feast. 。After a good meal, as he was about to leave, he said, "Who asked for medical help earlier I'm free tomorrow. Have the patient come over." 。" Old Li was overjoyed and quickly sent someone to the city to inform Madam Jia. 。So, the next day, when the sun was high in the sky at around noon, Jia Erfu and Baozhu accompanied Xing's mother and daughter to Suijintang. 。Tao Hongying and Mrs. Wen stood at the door, smiling and welcoming. 。Jia Yin and Bao Zhu immediately embraced each other upon seeing each other, chattering and laughing nonstop. 。Mrs. Xing's face was unhealthily pale, perhaps she had put on makeup to cover it up. 。Unfortunately, she often suffered from illnesses, causing her skin to become dry and loose. No matter how much powder or rouge she applied, it wouldn't adhere properly and only made her appearance seem more artificial. 。Miss Wan'er wore a water-blue short jacket, paired with an ivory horse-face skirt. She had a lotus green cloak on the outside, still as elegant and gentle. 。She always held onto her mother, even with maids and servants by her side, she never strayed a step. This shows that she was filial and meticulous. 。Everyone arrived at the main hall at once and saw Old Lady Li. 。When Li Laotai first saw Miss Wan'er, she almost liked her at first sight. 。After exchanging a few pleasantries with Mrs. Xing, she took Wǎn'er's hand and wouldn't let go, saying repeatedly: 。"Madam Xing, how did you raise such a fine young lady! Our family should truly learn from your experience!"Look, Miss Wan'er is beautiful and graceful. " 。Look at our little girl, she's always jumping around like a monkey all day, giving us a headache. 。Even if she had a third of Wan'er's composure, I wouldn't have to worry. 。Jia Yinzheng and Baozhu were holding a basket of fruit, choosing the biggest and reddest one. 。Suddenly feeling her grandma's slightly disapproving gaze, she quickly protested, "Grandma, I'm your own granddaughter! " 。"We're not that fickle, are we With a beautiful young lady in the house, you've forgotten little Fu Niuer"

Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this. Xing Fu quickly interjected, "The county princess is so smart and adorable, how could our matriarch dislike her! It was just a joke!"

"I, on the other hand, have always been in poor health, burdening Wan'er. She had to manage the household at such a young age, forced to wear a stern expression..." 。Actually, when she was little, Wan'er was just as lively as a princess. 。“ Having said that, she couldn't help but feel a tickle in her throat. She covered her mouth with a handkerchief and started coughing again. 。Perhaps afraid of being disliked, she coughed and explained, "I... cough, cough, but I'm..." 。Everyone looked at him pitifully and urged him to 。Mrs. Xing, please don't worry too much. Have some tea to soothe your throat. 。Even peeling an orange and pressing it on your cough is okay. 。Xing Wan'er gave her mother tea and helped pat her back, with great skill. 。Although she quickly soothed her mother and moved everyone to pity, 。"Water Spirit, quickly go and invite Doctor Zhang." 。After he had seen it, everyone else felt reassured as well. 。"Li Laotai opened her mouth to command, Shui Ling immediately ran off." 。Soon, Zhang Shini arrived in the yard with his hands behind his back. Shui Ling followed behind him, carrying a medical box, and secretly gave Jia Yin a gesture. 。Jia Yin quickly whispered a question to Bao Zhu. Bao Zhu, who was munching on fruit halfway through, jumped down and ran to her mistress' side, hugging a long box. 。As soon as everyone got up to greet Zhang Shenyi, they saw that his expression was not right. He seemed a little embarrassed and confused. 。As a result, Baozhu ran over and handed the long box to Zhang Shenyi. 。"Grandfather Zhang, this is the medicinal herb that my mother finally found. " 。"I'm giving this to you, please, I beg you, cure my aunt!" Zhang Shini said with a sniff of his nose. He quickly opened the box and immediately changed his expression. "Hundred-year-old black fungus! Where did you get this from" Jia Erfu quietly let out a breath of relief and replied, “This was a gift from an old friend of my husband a couple years ago.” 。Our family doesn't understand medicine, so keeping such good medicinal herbs is pointless. 。"This time I came, just thinking of dedicating it to the divine doctor, so that this pearl wouldn't be hidden in our home." 。" Zhang Shenyi coughed twice, remembering his bad attitude just now, he felt a little guilty, and replied, "I woke up early and was having a headache. I couldn't figure out a prescription for the medicine, so I was a bit agitated." 。However, with this blackbird, the big problem is solved. 。"Well then, let me take a look at the patient first. If I can't treat him, this Shou Wu...I wouldn't be able to accept payment either!"

He said that, but his hand didn't move to put the box down. 。lite. It was just a misunderstanding, and Wan'er wasn't hurt. I'll send Wan'er back today, and we can get together again another day.'""Okay, come visit often." Tao Hongying personally saw off Jia Erf...
