In the palace of Duke Wei.
Xia Zeming, that is, Xu Jia, who had changed his appearance and entered the house, helped Wan Lan trim her nails again. After smoothing the bad nails, she applied the crushed concoction and wrapped the nails one by one.
After more than a month of treatment, Wan Lan was surprised to find that her nails, which were not seriously ill, were showing signs of recovery.
"Agui, look at this nail, is it getting better? Look, I don't feel as strong as before." Wan Lan pointed to her little finger and said happily.
Aunt Gui took a look and was also very happy: "The old lady is right, the slave looks much better too."
“Dr.
"The old lady is so impressed. There are multiple factors that cause this nail problem. This treatment requires not only external application, but also internal administration. The old lady has done it one by one. It is only a matter of time that all the sick nails will return to normal."
Xu Jia wrapped all Wan Lan's nails and then stepped aside respectfully: "I will come back tomorrow night to help the old lady remove them. Don't get into the water."
"good."
A maid came in with medicine. Aunt Gui took it and said, "Old madam, the medicine is ready."
"Bring it quickly, I'll drink it." Wan Lan took the medicine, raised her head and drank it in one gulp.
Wan Lan believed Xu Jia's words 100%.
Nails were a pain in her heart that had been bothering her for more than ten years. As long as they could be cured, she would pay any price.
Seeing Wan Lan drink the medicine, Xu Jia curled up into a faint smile.
"Old madam, the medicine jar used by Cao Min to boil medicine was accidentally damaged by Cao Min yesterday. Cao Min wants a new one."
"Aunt Gui, did you hear that? Go and buy a new medicine jar for Dr. Xia." Wan Lan is very suspicious, and some things must be bought by Aunt Gui before she is willing to use them.
Aunt Gui was very happy and said, "I obey my command."
When she raised her head, she looked at Xu Jia and quickly looked away.
Suddenly there was a shrill scream outside.
Wan Lan's eyes suddenly widened, and then she held her temples, "Why is that little debt collector here again?"
Xu Jia couldn't stay for a long time, so he handed over and left.
The wind outside the house was very strong, and the autumn wind was like a knife blowing on people's faces, which was a bit painful.
When Xu Jia passed by Cui Qingping, he looked specifically at his injured left face. He was not wearing a hat or a veil, and he was not protected from the light and wind. He was just exposed like this. How could he be so obedient as a child?
The corners of his lips pursed slightly, and he crossed his long legs to avoid the noisy Cui Qingping who was playing tricks in the yard.
Cui Qingping lied in the sun and said, "Give me money, I want money."
Wan Lan came out and pointed at Cui Qingping angrily: "You bastard, what are you going to do? I give you two hundred taels a day, and you are still satisfied? You still want more? Why don't you go to heaven!"
Cui Qingping ran very fast for his small body. He turned over and hugged Wan Lan's thigh: "Auntie, please give me money. When I grow up, I will honor you and provide for you in my old age."
Wan Lan almost laughed out of anger: "Give me back the money you defrauded me from, and I will be able to live my old age peacefully."
"Auntie." Cui Qingping hugged Wan Lan's legs and said reluctantly, "Please, please."
Aunt Gui looked at her, "Old madam, this kid always wants money. Could it be that he has been cheated?"
"Liar?" Wan Lan was startled.
Who would lie to a child who is not yet six years old?
Aunt Gui whispered a few times into Wan Lan's ear, and Wan Lan understood: "Give it to him."
Another two hundred taels of silver note was handed to Cui Qingping. Cui Qingping was a little unhappy when he saw the two hundred taels of silver on it.
I always give two hundred taels every time. If you give more, you will die. You are stingy!
But something is better than nothing.
Cui Qingping took two hundred taels of silver and ran away.
A servant got the instructions from Grandma Gui and followed Cui Qingping.
"What you said woke me up." Wan Lan was helped back into the house by Granny Gui: "He is a child, what does he need so much money for? Maybe he was really cheated."
"The old lady is kind-hearted, I hope nothing happens to this child." Aunt Gui helped Wan Lan lie down, "Madam, that servant went to buy a medicine jar."
"Go ahead. I don't trust what others buy. It's up to you to do things that please me."
Aunt Gui said happily: "It's the old lady who is carrying my beloved slave."
After leaving Duke Wei's mansion, Nanny Gui headed all the way to the place where groceries were sold.
The medicine jar is just an ordinary clay pot. No matter whether it is made of purple sand or red sand, it will not be as good as a clay pot.
Aunt Gui went straight to a grocery store.
This grocery store is also an old one. Everything is sold inside. There are several clay pots placed at the door. Grandma Gui picked two. The clerk quickly packed them away after seeing this. Grandma Gui paid and left.
From beginning to end, the two of them said nothing except asking about the price.
Seeing Aunt Gui leave, the salesman opened the curtain and went to the backyard.
"The stuff is out."
No one knows to whom he said these four words, but suddenly a branch among the leafy trees in the yard suddenly stopped moving in the wind, and the man went back to the front yard to continue his business.
Aunt Gui returned to Duke Wei's mansion carrying two medicine jars.
Xu Jia is grinding medicine.
"Mother Gui."
“Dr.
One of them was placed right in front, facing Xu Jia.
Xu Jia cupped his hands and said, "Thank you so much, Aunt Gui."
"Doctor Xia, you're welcome. I'm doing this for the old lady. I hope the old lady's condition will return to normal soon."
"Will do."
"If the medicine jar is broken, Dr. Xia can just come to me directly, and I will go out and buy it for Dr. Xia. Don't bother the old lady with such trivial matters."
Xu Jia raised his hands and bowed to Aunt Gui, "Thank you, Aunt Gui."
After some brief words, Aunt Gui left.
Xu Jia didn't expect that Aunt Gui was not from Wan Lan.
A few days after he entered the mansion, Aunt Gui revealed her identity to him by asking for medicine. She was a member of Governor Pei and had been lurking in the Duke Wei's mansion. More than ten years ago, she came to Wan Lan's side. She became her personal nanny.
And she revealed her identity because Aning asked Pei Heng to take more care of her.
Pei Heng actually believed in An Ning so much that he exposed that he had planted a chess piece in Duke Wei's mansion for more than ten years because of An Ning's words.
Pei Heng versus Aning...
Xu Jia felt a little uncomfortable, and his eyes fell on the medicine jar facing him.
He picked up the medicine jar and looked up and down, but couldn't smell any other special smell.
Xu Jia did not give up. He filled the medicine jar with water and put it on the stove to boil.
