Accumulate Wealth in Life

Shuzi High Gate (13)

The room fell into silence, and no one spoke. In fifteen years, the distance between the two was pushed a little farther.

Li Xiangjun turned to look at Mrs Gan who was lying on the couch without saying a word: "What? Hate me?"

Gan Shi suddenly smiled: "No! You can tell me the truth... It's already rare."

"It's still my fault." Li Xiangjun sighed, "Don't blame me, I know you better than you. Even if you ask me for help..." She looked down at Gan's eyes and asked: " Are you really relieved? With your temperament, you will definitely be watched carefully, so as to be able to check for leaks at any time. Therefore, don't be annoyed about things that have never happened or won't happen. …”

Ganshi nodded: "Maybe! But things in this world... After all, human beings are no match for heaven." Just like herself back then, she has calculated everything. Even if she is calculated by Lin Fanghua, she has a way to escape, but who can Thinking of it, it was such a coincidence that whoever didn't meet, happened to meet Prince Heng. It's not what God is.

Li Xiangjun's lips moved, wanting to ask her how she would be brought back by the prince since she was not willing, but she didn't ask. Know or not, what's the difference? She sighed softly, her shoulders seemed to loosen: "Knowing that you are not sorry to me, the grievances in my heart all these years seem to dissipate all at once." She looked at Gan uneasily: "Now... Is there anything else I need to do in order to do it?"

Gan shi said softly: "I haven't thought of it yet. When I can use you, I won't be polite to you."

Li Xiangjun got up just now, she knew that if she didn't leave, Daoist Xu would not come in. This ox-nosed Taoist concocts medicine pills for the prince. He is the prince's person. What the prince doesn't want him to know, he can't know. She stood up and looked at the blood oozing from the corners of Gan's mouth again, tears finally came down: "Don't be tough, I told you this the day before you got married, but you didn't take it to heart. Go. Today, I'll tell you again, women don't be too tough. Be gentle and suffer less... My lord... No matter what his body is, his heart is not broken! He used to love you, as long as you are willing Give him a good face, and he will cherish you... if nothing else, just for your own daughter, be soft... it will not hurt you."

Gan shi looked at Li Xiangjun in surprise and accepted the kindness: "I see..."

Only then did Li Xiangjun hold back the tears on his face, and went out again with a dull face.

Gan shi closed his eyes. At this point, how can he satisfy himself just by asking for a better life?

"What were you two mumbling about just now?" King Heng came in from outside and asked directly to the Gan family.

Gan's eyes didn't open: "Just say a few words about the past."

"What happened in the past?" Prince Heng sat on the couch, "What happened in the past?"

"Those things I don't want to recall anymore." The expression on Gan's face became lighter and lighter, "Parents and relatives are dead, husbands are divorced, daughters are separated, friends are resentful, and even childhood sweethearts have changed at that moment. Heartbroken... Is there anything in this world that won't change? What else can be kept forever?"

Prince Heng looked at Gan's face, and didn't speak for a long time, until the entourage outside reported that he was coming, and he whispered: "There is nothing in this world that is eternal. But if you have the ability, you can Let those you want to keep stay by your side forever. Just like you and me, when I was the grandson of the emperor, I could only watch and marry someone else. But when I became a prince...I have the willful power...Quan Son...that's the power of power! With it, you can easily get what you want. So, be good, get well soon. We still have a lot to do?"

Gan took a deep breath: "Yes... we still have a lot of things to do."

"It's us, not us!" Prince Heng chuckled lightly, "You will always belong to this king, whether it's life or death."

Then let's go and see!

The corners of Gan's mouth were slightly raised, and the trace of blood that flowed from her mouth stretched all the way to her chin, adding a bit of bewitching beauty.

Prince Heng raised his hand, wiped it with his sleeve, and said, "Please come in."

Mrs. Chu ignored the old lady of the Lin family who wanted to talk to her, but turned around and went directly to the small courtyard where she lived temporarily.

"You go and tell Liu Wu to go back to the capital immediately, and tell the master about today's matter quickly." Madam Chu sent Mammy Bai, "You must tell her in detail, and tell him to forget something... After speaking, he seemed to remember something, and said, "Forget it, let me write a letter and ask him to send it back directly. I'm afraid he can't explain clearly." Let others know that there are too many mouths, and there are still any secrets to speak of. It's better to write a letter.

Mammy Bai hurriedly sent the girl to lay out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, "Madam...don't worry, it's already like this, it's useless to hurry."

Mrs. Chu sighed, and while grinding, she instructed: "Go and invite all the young masters over. I have something to say. Besides... and the servants in the family, I ordered them to keep their mouths shut. The Qi family girl is here for you. The daughter-in-law appointed by Yi’er, the fourth daughter-in-law is the second daughter of the Lin family…”

Mammy Bai thought of the second girl and sighed slightly. The fourth young master has found a bargain this time, and he has obtained such a good person.

As soon as the fourth master came back, seeing that it was Mrs. Chu's summoning, he didn't delay, just got up and walked over. The matter on the female family's side has really not spread so quickly. It's just that he knew about the miscarriage of Prince Heng's side concubine.

By the time he arrived, Jin Shouren and Jin Shouli had already arrived.

Mrs. Chu came out of the inner room and gave a letter to Mammy Bai: "Hurry up and send it back."

Mammy Bai hurriedly took it, bowed her head and backed out.

Only then did Madam Chu tell the three brothers what happened in the hall: "...I just didn't tell you, this matter spread in a blink of an eye. So, I'd better explain it first, so that people will not ask you when the time comes. , you also know how to answer. At that time, the boss went to make a decision... It was for the second child. The fourth child's marriage, this time back to Beijing, we will make a decision. This cannot be changed. It is the direct daughter of the Lin family." , looked at the fourth master, "You are a sensible child, and the second girl of the Lin family is also a good one. It's not like humiliating you."

The fourth master was actually shocked. He hadn't come up with a solution yet. The Gan Shi, who is suspected to be the future mother-in-law, came to such a hand and directly settled the matter. Mrs. Chu said it lightly, but it was not easy to get Mrs. Chu to nod in public. It seems that this Concubine Gan is really bothered.

I just don't know what she thinks, so she will give her daughter's life to a concubine.

This incident is coincidental and logical, which makes people have to wonder what the secret is.

For example, in this incident, Concubine Gan had a miscarriage. Not only did she have a miscarriage when she was wearing a dress, but she was also harmed by Prince Duan's side concubine. And this side concubine is Qi side concubine who has something to do with the Lin family.

These thoughts flashed in my heart, and the fourth master stood up and said respectfully: "The marriage of children is the matchmaker's order. If the mother thinks it is suitable, it is naturally suitable."

Mrs. Chu is very satisfied with the attitude of the fourth master, and she knows how to advance and retreat. This is how a shy son should be.

Jin Shouren moved uncomfortably, and asked softly, "Then...the Qi family can agree to the marriage?" He really didn't think about it anywhere else, he just thought that it would be pitiful for the girl to be a widow for the rest of her life.

There was a smile on Jin Shouli's face. He didn't know what to think, and suddenly said: "What kind of family does Qi's family belong to? What kind of family does our family belong to? Giving it to the second brother... is not a humiliation for her. , who doesn't praise the talent... The second brother can't match such a girl? In the future, the eldest brother's son, regardless of his descendant, will adopt one to the second brother, can't it?"

The fourth master thought to himself, could it be that the third child also knew that Jin Shouren and the Qi family girl were so tricky. Otherwise, he would not deliberately propose a stepchild, instead of picking two houses on one shoulder. This even blocked Kim Soo-in's back path.

In fact, adoptive children have fewer sequelae than a shoulder-to-shoulder affair. One shoulder to pick, is to mess up the house. Get two women, both of them are big, but they are commensurate with sister-in-law. The future child, a father, is actually cousins ​​according to etiquette. When the family is divided, the eldest son can account for 70% of the family business, and the rest is divided according to the head of the house. So much unfairness, isn't this Qing waiting to make trouble?

Therefore, it is possible to pick on one shoulder, but more people choose adoptive children.

In all fairness, Madam Chu didn't think so. In the future, when the eldest's children are all grown up, choose a suitable one. No matter the descendant, she will be her grandson here. It's the same when it's adopted to the second child.

But who is this girl from the Qi family? Originally, he had some beginnings and ends with the boss. If something scandalous was done behind the scenes, it would be better to put it on the table.

She waved her hand a little annoyingly at the moment: "It's all about the future... Now you are outside, don't be fooled around, just stay indoors if you have nothing to do."

The three of them bowed and retreated from the inside.

"Fourth, I'm going fishing in Houshan, do you want to go?" Jin Shouli pulled the fourth master, "Let's go together, there are a lot of acquaintances..."

Fourth Master said in a low voice, "Be careful, this is a practice, why do you think about going fishing? If you want to listen to my advice, you might as well send someone to buy a few buckets of fry and release them!"

Jin Shouli slapped his head: "I'll send someone here. I was almost misled by these people, and it's a big mess!"

The fourth master bowed to Jin Shouren and went back to his room. Seeing Guiwu waiting in the room, he asked, "What's wrong?"

There was a smile on Guiwu's face: "Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master." This side has an affair with the girl of the Lin family, and there is someone who directly delivers the person to his own young master. This luck is really amazing. Can not help but admire.

"Keep your mouth shut!" The fourth master's expression was not relaxed at all, "But what did you find out?"

"Didn't the young master ask Concubine Gan before?" Guiwu closed the smile on his face and said in a low voice, "Master Li Xu has already gone to diagnose Concubine Gan. On the way to the mountain, I couldn’t stop and fell, and I went three times in a row, all of which are the same. Therefore, Prince Heng invited the Master Xu…”

The fourth master thought, this prince is not a fool, the miscarriage is not counted, and he is afraid that the child will be saved, so he keeps blocking the imperial doctor. Such a low-end and stupid thing was definitely not done by Duan Wang. Everyone is staring at it. Prince Duan is just pretending to be slurred in his head. Are the staff around him all idiots?

After all, this is more like a bitter trick played by Prince Heng.

"It's windy today, and I have a headache after standing outside for a day. I don't need to ask an imperial doctor. I just invited the medicine boy in front of Daoist Xu to prescribe two patches of sweating medicine, and that's fine." The fourth master thought for a while, He ordered Guiwu.

Gui Wu was stunned for a moment, the young master is not feeling well, of course, this is a major event. Just as he was about to go down the mountain to ask the doctor, he felt a little enlightened. The master is not really uncomfortable, he just wanted to ask the medicine boy to inquire about something.

He understood the meaning, and quickly backed out.

Tongchen, the pharmacist who met the master, was fourteen or fifteen years old, clean, and he brought a three-pointed smile when he saw him. To be honest, this kid doesn't look like a little Taoist priest, but Dao looks like the second of a businessman.

When I came in and saw the fourth master, I bowed my head. The fourth master called him up, "Don't make a big gift. I know that your master is a busy person, and I'm not a big symptom. You can just take a look."

Tongchen respectfully stepped forward to check the fourth master's pulse, and the expression on his face was quite serious.

The fourth master's nose moved slightly, and Tongchen's body smelled of medicine, and he could really distinguish the smell of medicine. If he smelled it right, it should be a medicine for women's postpartum conditioning. His brows were slightly wrinkled, Concubine Gan's miscarriage was an emergency, how could a Taoist prepare medicine for postpartum conditioning in advance. Even if you know that Concubine Qi is pregnant, you should be pregnant.

Unless, this old man knew in advance that the concubine would be willing to have a miscarriage.

See how he knew?

If he is Prince Duan's person, and he is a close associate of his cronies, then knowing in advance that Prince Duan might attack him is a reluctance to explain in the past. But if this is the case, how could Prince Heng ask Lao Dao to diagnose Concubine Gan. Doctor, this must be done by someone who is absolutely trustworthy. He didn't think that Prince Heng didn't even know the details of this old man.

Then, there is only one truth left, and that is this so-called 'small production', I am afraid it is also a self-directed and self-acted bitter meat scheme.

The fourth master calmed his mind and said as if jokingly, "Your master is a well-known power. Now, looking at your appearance, you have gained some real inheritance."

Tong Chen took the pulse-diagnosing hand back, and there was nothing wrong with the young master's body. But since people say that it is cold, it must be treated according to the cold. These sons are afraid that they want to be lazy. He didn't break it, and said with a smile: "My lord, this is a small joke. Even if he can memorize two common recipes, he also helps the master to sort out medicinal herbs on weekdays. What's your ability? The body is fine, just boil the old **** in a thick bowl of juice and drink it while it's hot. Don't see the wind in the past two days, it will be fine. "

The fourth master nodded: "You can use ginger, and it's not bad to eat horizontally and vertically. The Taoist priest is also an expert, why did you accept such a slippery apprentice. Be careful, I will go to your master tomorrow to complain."

Tongchen chuckled: "Why do you have to scare the little one. If the young master wants to seek medical treatment, Master does have this medicine to strengthen the body. It's just that he has been busy recently, and his old man is busy serving nobles. Wait a bit. In the days, the young master may come to the door..."

The fourth master has a number in his heart. This old man who is Prince Heng has no intention of hiding from others at all. For something as important as a medicinal pill, Prince Heng would naturally guard against King Duan's attack, so it was even more impossible for Lao Dao to be involved with Prince Duan.

When he got what he wanted, he asked Guixi to give him money and send it out.

When Guixi came back, he told the fourth master: "As soon as it was delivered to the door, there was a little servant who was running errands. Hearing what he meant, he told Tongchen to prepare medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Even this little one's confused knowledge also felt this. Something is wrong. This is a miscarriage, how can you use blood-activating medicine?"

Yes! How to use the medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis? Doing a full set of dramas, now that you have prepared the medicine for postpartum conditioning, what are you doing extravagantly?

If you configure it for others, you don't have to rush to find someone to find it here.

Fourth Master couldn't figure it out, so he left it temporarily and didn't want to. Anyway, today is a happy event.

And at this moment in the Lin family, the old lady sat opposite Lin Changgen. Yun Shi looked around and saw that the mother and son did not speak, and felt a little uncomfortable. This was to protect himself.

She stood up and said in a low voice, "I asked someone to buy a lot of fruit from the Zhuang households at the foot of the mountain, and I'll take it." After speaking, she retreated.

The old lady looked at Mrs Yun who had left, and said dissatisfiedly, "Look at her... She doesn't even have the mistress of a mistress. She just took the initiative to ask about the marriage of her children, can I still ask her to sit in the chair?" Listen here."

Lin Changgen frowned: "When Mrs Gan was there, you thought she was not good. Now when it comes to Mrs Yun, you feel bad about Mrs Yun. Who are you satisfied with? Are you satisfied with Concubine Zhao? Yes, except for you. Concubine Zhao and sister, who have you been satisfied with?"

The old lady's face was a little bad: "Are you blaming me for being a mother?"

Lin Changgen sneered: "How did the Gan family go? What did you say back then? The words you swore at the beginning are still in your ears, mother! You really can do it!"

The corners of the old lady's mouth pursed, and she looked at Lin Changgen suspiciously: "Do you know something?"

"What is the mother hiding from me, I can't know?" Lin Changgen looked at the old lady and asked.

The old lady pondered for a while, and then said, "Don't always hold on to the past. It's already like this, and today's... The second girl can't blame you and me..."

"I'm afraid you would rather ask her to blame you for the arrangement of Duo girl, and give her a better arrangement. Didn't you do the same to your son at the beginning? You would rather complain, but you have never been soft-hearted when you shot. When it comes to the second girl, what's the matter? You are a little too biased..." The irony on Lin Changgen's face became stronger and stronger, "In this case, the old lady will leave the family affairs in the future. You Just take good care of your sister and niece."

The old lady's face changed: "what do you mean?"

Lin Changgen stood up and walked away: "What do you think it means."

The old lady was left gasping for breath.

Mammy Mei sighed, then stepped forward to touch the old lady's chest: "Uncle is just a momentary anger, why are you so angry?"

The old lady waved her hand and said, "I knew...that Mr. Gan will sooner or later divide the relationship between our mother and son...that's what I said when she entered the door...now that's the case, she's still...a disaster! Disaster!"

Mammy Mei's hands froze, she really couldn't tell who was in trouble. In the end who scourged who, this is really two things.

In the room next door, Mammy Chen watched Lin Changgen go out with a bad expression from the window, and then turned around and nodded to Mrs Yun: "Let's go."

Yun Shi sighed: "You go back to the mansion now, and tell the second girl about this matter, it's considered a good deal for us."

Madam Chen responded and asked in a low voice, "That Concubine Gan... Really not..."

The cold light in Yun's eyes flashed: "What do you do with so much? Do what you are told, and keep your mouth shut."

Mammy Chen quickly shrank her head, and when she was going out, she happened to meet Mammy Mei hurriedly leaving. The two walked together in tacit understanding, but neither of them said what to do when they went back.

You don't need to ask, you know that Mammy Mei was sent by the old lady and rushed back to the house to send a message to her aunt.

It rained again tonight. The charcoal basin was lit, and the room still felt a little cold.

Lin Yutong simply asked the girls to set the kang on fire, laying on the kang early, and fell asleep in a daze.

When it was almost midnight, the wind picked up and the branches hit the window lattice, disturbing people's good dreams. As soon as she opened her eyes and was about to get up to take a sip of hot water, she heard a noise in the yard, followed by a few girls outside.

She simply sat up, put on her clothes, and lifted the curtain.

"Miss, you are also awake." Sanxi put on a jacket and walked in with an oil lamp in her hand. As she came in, the room suddenly lit up.

Lin Yutong's eyes narrowed and he had to get used to the light, so he asked, "It's midnight, what's wrong?"

"Mother Chen is back, and she's changing her clothes now. I sent the little girl over and said that she would come over to talk to the girl later." Sanxi said, her voice lowered: "Mother Mei also came back and went directly to Chunhe. Garden."

Chunhe Garden is where Lin Fanghua's mother and daughter lived.

Lin Yutong was shocked, it seemed that the matter was not trivial. She whispered: "Inquire about what was said over there."

Sanxi responded and called Xiangli in to accompany Lin Yutong, while she went out to arrange things herself.

Mother Chen came quickly, Lin Yutong told her to sit on the edge of the charcoal basin, and handed over hot tea in person.

"I don't dare to bother the second girl." Mother Chen said politely, but she was satisfied with Lin Yutong's attitude. Only then did he tell Lin Yutong the cause and effect of the incident in great detail: "...Madam, let the girl not think too much, that fourth son is actually a good candidate. Maybe it's a blessing in disguise..." As she said that, she couldn't help thinking of Concubine Gan... Her eyes couldn't help looking at the second girl in front of her.

Lin Yutong was naturally pleasantly surprised at the beginning. Even though he thought about it, he didn't think there was a sure-fire way to solve the marriage, but he just called her to bump into him? This is so lucky! It was only when the agitation in her heart was suppressed, she felt Chen Ma's scrutiny, and she pondered the tone of her speech just now. When she spoke of Concubine Gan, she always had a somewhat inexplicable meaning.

"Marriage matters are the orders of my parents. If my father and my wife think it's suitable, then it is suitable. There is absolutely no reason for me to intervene. My wife can send my mother to run overnight. I will remember this sentiment." He just glanced at Man Yue, "Bring 10 taels of silver to Mammy, and then send someone to **** Mammy back in person. Remember to ask someone to light the heated kang, and ask the doctor tomorrow to give Mammy a look at her body, so don't catch a cold. ."

The full moon responded, and Chen Momo felt more at ease.

After seeing off Chen Momo, Sanxi came back: "...the girl who was serving outside couldn't hear clearly, but she still listened to the aunt's loud scolding. The aunt scolded that Concubine Gan... What a **** is a bitch. People, you are so cruel to your own daughter...what the retribution of a slut, a miscarriage that deserves it, etc..."

Sanxi didn't speak, and Lin Yutong froze instantly.

What do these words together mean? Why does Lin Fanghua scold a **** to someone who has no relationship? Why are you so cruel to your own daughter?

Concubine Gan... her biological daughter... the original owner's biological mother, the Gan family...

These intermittent pieces of information were strung together in Lin Yutong's mind like a chain...
