Chapter 32

"Xiao Nian'er, come and taste this, fresh whitebait just bought from Yizhou." Gu Qingyue picked some from the plate and gave it to Gu Nian.

Gu Nian was throwing a temper tantrum, and with a quick push, all the food on the table fell to the ground: "No, don't eat this! I want to eat candied lotus root."

Nanny Li, who was serving at the side, had her eyelids twitch, squatted quickly on the ground, gathered together the overturned leftovers, and shouted outside: "Where is the person? Are you deaf? You didn't hear the movement in the room, so you still don't come in." Personally cleaned up!"

The servants outside the house rushed in one after another, quickly cleaning up the mess.

"Ma'am, you should take care of Missy too. The whitebait that my servant spent a lot of money to buy, let Miss spoil it like this. I really don't know how expensive daily necessities are!"

Gu Qingyue couldn't bear the servants to say that, and dropped the tea bowl on the table to the ground, making a crisp sound.

"It's just a slave who dares to yell here. According to Zhou's laws, a subordinate who offends a superior shall be punished by beheading. Do you really think I dare not kill you?"

Nanny Li has never seen such a Gu Qingyue, ferocious like a goshawk, staring at her sharply, aloof and arrogant, as if she is the prey under her sharp claws.

He fell to his knees on the ground, not only tears but also sweat dripping down his face, and he lowered his head anxiously.

Dog minion!
Seeing Nanny Li's flustered look, Gu Qingyue sneered in her heart.

If it wasn't for the fact that the second wife has kept herself safe for so many years and didn't bully her, she didn't show her minions.

Her daughter is her weakness, who dares to hurt her, she no longer has the good temper she used to have.

"get out!"

As if she had received the imperial edict, Nanny Li got up from the ground with both hands and feet, and when she was about to leave, she slapped a thousand respectfully.

As soon as Nanny Li left, Gu Qingyue put her arms around Gu Nian, looked at Gu Nian's pretty face, and sighed, "Xiao Nian'er, you are the only mother..."

Gu Nian really wanted to hug Gu Qingyue back and tell her that she would always be with her, half-raised her hand, then quietly put it down again, wait, now is not the time.

……

When the five-day appointment came, Gu Nian started to cry again and again. Gu Qingyue felt sorry for her, and asked Xiaoxi and others to accompany her again.

The old trick was repeated, Gu Nian waited in the tailor shop early, and chose some heavy cotton padded clothes for Zhang Xiaofeng and his mother, with these, they could spend a stable winter.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Zhang Xiaofeng stood in front of Gu Nian in a trance, tears streaming down his face before he opened his mouth: "Master, my mother, she didn't make it through... she left the day before yesterday..."

As long as Liu Xiaofeng cried, Gu Nian was with him for as long.

She has also experienced the feeling of not having parents. The pain without words, the loss of her own blood relatives, cannot be replaced by more and better things.

Comforting words, if you can't say them, are pale and worthless in the face of the facts.

Zhang Xiaofeng's eyes were swollen from crying, and he squinted into a straight line. He still didn't forget to apologize to Gu Nian: "Master, the one or two I sold was used up by me to buy medicine. When my mother had no money for burial, I moved part of what you gave me. I'm sorry." ..."

The little hand spread out, and in the palm of the hand was some remaining broken silver.

"It's okay, move it if you move it, and then I will deduct it from your monthly bill."

Gu Nian never thought of treating Zhang Xiaofeng as a subordinate, but the rules of this world are like this, only by following the trend can he survive better.

Gu Nian unfolded the cotton padded clothes she bought for him and put them on his body, "After that, there will be two sets of clothes every season, and the money will be distributed in the middle of each month. This is the house I bought on West Street, and you will live there first. "

Gu Nian brought Zhang Xiaofeng to the house she bought.

It was very small, and there was only one set of courtyards in front and back. When she and Gu Qingyue got rid of Yuan Zhengguan, this place was just right for them to settle down.

"Master, won't you bring me into the house?" Zhang Xiaofeng asked anxiously.

Gu Nian shook her head: "I need you to help me with some things, it's not convenient at home."

Zhang Xiaofeng nodded half understanding.

Children in this era are generally precocious, Gu Nian settled Zhang Xiaofeng well, and then left again. He couldn't leave for a long time every time, and Nanny Li would definitely become suspicious if she knew about it.

When leaving, he handed him thick envelopes one by one: "Xiaofeng, please help me deliver this letter to the abbot of Ci'en Temple. Just say that the old man is visiting, and he will see you."

"Yes, master"

In that thick envelope, all Gu Nian's doubts and incomprehensions about Chinese medicine were written. She believed that the master would understand her meaning if it was empty.

I remember one time, in order to return the medical skills stolen from the study, Gu Nian deliberately went to bed early to confuse Xiaoxi. As soon as he left the small courtyard, he found the sneaky Xiaoxi, followed her, and saw her enter Nanny Li's room .

From that moment on, Gu Nian knew that her side was not safe, Xiaoxi's actions reminded her to be more careful in her future actions, if she was a little careless, she might lose everything.

The wings of a butterfly can cause an uproar, but what kind of storm will be caused by my pretending to be stupid?
From winter to spring, Gu Nian grew another year, like the slender branches of a willow branch, showing a graceful figure.

He kept a large box of Master Kong's letters in his house on West Street. Gu Nian's advanced ideas brought a lot of inspiration to Master Kong. Gu Nian is a mentor who answers questions.

She is now familiar with the theoretical knowledge of prescriptions, medicinal effects, and medicinal ingredients, etc., but she has never practiced it.

When the catkins were flying, Gu Qingyue started to cough. Gu Nian didn't pay attention to it at first, she just thought she was allergic to catkins, until she was lazy and unwilling to leave the hospital, hugging Mrs. Tang all day long, curled up on the imperial concubine's bed.

The coughing kept coming every day, and the doctor asked for wave after wave. Gu Nian had read the prescriptions prescribed by the doctor, and they were all good medicines for cough relief, but they just poured down bowls of medicines, which didn't help at all.

Gu Nian is too dependent on modern medical equipment, and in the ancient times with poor conditions, Gu Nian is helpless in the face of such a situation. She can't understand Gu Qingyue's pulse case...
When she was getting anxious, she received a letter from Master Konglei.

She was so anxious and confused that she didn't expect that Gu Qingyue was unwilling to go out, so she could invite the master to come here!

The warm afternoon sun made people drowsy. Seeing that the weather was fine, Gu Nian wrapped around Gu Qingyue and moved a recliner to bask in the sun on the porch.

Outside the gate of the courtyard, Mama Li and Mama Liu were yelling and cursing, one after another, but no one would give in.

Gu Qingyue, who was asleep, sat up from the recliner, Gu Nian pretended to be asleep, and leaned against her.

"What happened, making all the noise?" Gu Qingyue cheered up and asked, her tone not very good.

Mama Liu pulled Nanny Li's hair, and half pulled and half carried her across the threshold. The two of them were covered in dust. Mama Liu seemed to have the upper hand, but there were a few bloodstains on her face when Nanny Li scratched her. , is oozing blood beads.
