Mrs. Ji didn't know until early the next morning that Yan Wanwan was ill and a doctor was sent to Taohuawu overnight.
Tang Rui stood behind Mrs. Ji, combing her hair and replying, "The doctor whom the Marquis himself sent for rested in Taohuawu in the middle of the night."
At this point, Tang Rui's face turned red, she spat and lowered her voice, "It was almost dawn when hot water came from Taohuawu."
Mrs. Ji hadn't done anything yet, but Grandma Chen let out an ouch and quickly covered Yan Jiaojiao's ears.
Yan Jiaojiao: "???"
Is there anything I can't listen to?
After thinking about it for a while, I suddenly realized it.
Oh, that's it?
Grandma Chen gritted her teeth and cursed: "How shameless!"
Ji was helpless, "Mom!"
"I feel sorry for the girl!"
Aunt Chen came to the Hou Mansion with the Ji family, more than ten years ago.
In the past, she really thought that Yan Hongfei was a truly good uncle.
Not to mention progress, he is devoted to her girl.
The young couple played the piano and played the piano in harmony, and the Nan'an Marquis Mansion was flourishing.
Who would have thought that a nice person would suddenly turn into a hideous person?
Mrs. Ji knew that this old man really felt sorry for her, but from the day her daughter was born, she had seen the true face of this man.
Do you still have any expectations for him?
Not wanting to listen to Grandma Chen's daily indignation, Ji just said that the weather was hot and she had no appetite and wanted to eat the shredded chicken noodles made by Grandma Chen herself.
When Grandma Chen heard this, she hurriedly went out and prepared it herself.
Mr. Ji breathed a sigh of relief.
"Madam, Aunt Liu usually seems to be a very aloof person. I didn't expect that she would use this method to win favor."
Li Rui brought a cup of warm goat's milk to feed Yan Jiaojiao and said to Ji.
【This is strange. 】
[Only when you are proud of the spring breeze can you become noble and noble. Now that you have fallen into the dust and become a concubine, what else can you do to be noble? 】
Yan Jiaojiao swallowed the sweet goat's milk and complained in her heart.
Using children to compete for favor is a must-have routine in house fighting stories.
If you are more cruel, you might even risk your child's life.
To say that Liu Xinyue's method is really not very clever.
Of course, it doesn't matter whether the method is clever or not, as long as it works.
Didn't he listen to what Tang Rui said, he lured Yan Hongfei from Yuzhu Garden to Taohuawu overnight, and successfully kept Yan Hongfei behind.
You know, at this time, Yan Hongfei and Gu Qiushui were inseparable.
Tang Rui inserted a pearl hairpin in Ji's hair, looked at it from side to side, and then told Ji.
"The little maid over at Taohuawu said that today the Marquis was supposed to be on duty at the Yamen. But the hour has passed and he couldn't get up. He just sent a message to Zhao Si to ask for leave."
Ji nodded, indicating that he understood.
At noon, Grandma Chen prepared the shredded chicken noodles that Ji asked for.
Yan Jing attended class for a long time and also came to the peony garden.
Mrs. Ji wiped the sweat from her son's forehead and asked him softly: "The weather is hot. Can you take a break after a while?"
"No!" Yan Jing took the warm water that Li Rui brought to him and drank it all. "Master said, practice in the winter and practice in the summer. The colder and hotter it is, the harder it will be on your body and bones!"
"Mom, I want to be a general!"
Yan Jing felt that he wanted to be a supporter for his mother and sister when he grew up. How could he not go to class or practice just because it was hot?
Ji was pleased and took her son to eat together.
As soon as the bowl was lifted, Yan Hongfei burst in angrily.
"What's going on with the drug store on Xuanwu Street?"
Mrs. Ji was feeding her daughter goat's milk. Hearing this, he raised his head and asked, "What do you mean, Lord Marquis?"
"What do you mean?" Yan Hongfei screamed, "Ms. Ji, what do you mean by asking me? Your dowry drug store on Xuanwu Street!"
"Isn't the drug store a good one?"
When Ji married into the Hou family, her parents and brothers were afraid that she would be looked down upon because of her background, so they gave her a very generous dowry.
There are more than a dozen shops in the capital alone.
Ji laughed lightly, "Why is the Marquis suddenly concerned about my dowry?"
Yan Hongfei choked.
Then he became more and more annoyed, "I sent Zhao Si to the medicine shop to get some medicinal materials, but the shopkeeper didn't give them to me! And he said, was it your order?"
"That's what I said."
When Mrs. Ji saw Yan Jiaojiao burping, she put down the bowl, wiped the corners of Yan Jiaojiao's mouth, and said lightly, "We still have a lot of medicinal materials in the public treasury. It would be bad if they were left unused and lost their effectiveness. So, it will be bad." I stopped the supply from the drug store. Mr. Marquis, is there any problem?"
Yan Hongfei frowned.
At night, Yan Wanwan took the medicine prescribed by the doctor, and her fever quickly subsided.
Liu Xinyue was so happy that she stood up faster and almost fainted.
After all, she was the white moonlight in her heart. When Yan Hongfei saw that she was so thin, he immediately wanted to ask the doctor again.
Liu Xinyue stopped her.
"I've already spent most of the night fussing over Wan Wan, so why open the door and make a fuss? I've just lost my temper recently. I just need to give birth and be recuperated."
Overnight, it seemed that Liu Xinyue had turned back into the gentle and considerate Jie Yuhua she had been before.
She must not ask the doctor to come, so Yan Hongfei did not insist anymore. When he sent Zhao Si to ask for leave this morning, he stopped by Ji's pharmacy on Xuanwu Street to pick up some ginseng, bird's nest, snow clam and other products for the patient. Liu Xinyue replenishes her health.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Si came back empty-handed. He said that the shopkeeper had told her that his wife would not allow people in the Marquis Mansion to take any precious medicinal materials from the medicine shop.
Looking at Liu Xinyue who was so embarrassed that she was about to cry, Yan Hongfei was very angry. Regardless of the fierce sun, he came directly to Ji's Xingshi to question the crime.
However, looking at Ji's half-smiling expression, Yan Hongfei's face was inevitably burning.
"Master Marquis?" Ji called with a smile, and then asked, "Is there any problem?"
Yan Hongfei was silent for a moment and said in a low voice, "Ms. Liu is not in good health. I thought that there are snow clams and ginseng in your medicine shop. I can give her some tonic, so I don't have to search everywhere."
[Daddy, you should have some face! 】
[How dare you use my mother’s dowry to replenish your little wife’s health! 】
Yan Jiaojiao waved his little fist, wanting to hit Yan Hongfei's face that looked like a dog.
"That's unfortunate."
Mrs. Ji covered her lips and sighed, "It's hard to do business now. There are still common medicinal materials, but the ones the Marquis mentioned have been hard to find in the shop in the past two years. There are only one or two items, which were bought with a lot of money and prepared to be sold to For distinguished guests.”
I have the things, but your concubine is not worthy of using them.
Ji's words made Yan Hongfei unhappy.
"We are all one family. Since we have it, we should use it first. At worst, the principal will be paid from the public treasury."
[Okay, the money in the public treasury doesn’t belong to my mother? Use my mother's money to buy my mother's things. Daddy, you really have yours! 】
Ji stopped her smile and said, "No."
Yan Hongfei seemed to have heard something incredible, "What did you say?"
"I said, no." Ji said the word "no" very clearly.
