Chapter 26 Is the General looking for Miss Xia?
"Ziyi, the old lady was still talking about you just now!" Mrs. Sun walked over.

"Brother Ziyi, I'll find a place to sit by myself. You can do your work." Qi Tianxiao looked around and found an empty seat to sit down.

"Auntie, how is grandmother's health these past few days?" Lin Ziyi asked.

Sun's face showed a sad face, and sighed softly: "The old lady has no appetite recently, eats less, and loses weight a little, maybe it's because it's too hot."

"Tomorrow, I will send someone to bring some ice."

"Zi Yi has a heart."

Lin Ziyi glanced at the guests, Sun carefully saw that Lin Ziyi was looking for someone, she covered her lips and smiled lightly: "But you are looking for Miss Xia?"

Lin Ziyi shook his head, then strode towards the old lady.

Lin Ziyi, who is usually busy with military training, would not come to this kind of theater banquet held in the courtyard. Seeing him coming, the old lady smiled kindly.

"Zi Yi is here, sit down."

Lin Ziyi saluted and sat next to the old matriarch, and on Lin Ziyi's right were Mrs. Lin who invited the troupe this time and her wife Gusu.

Xia Jin sat in a remote place, so she couldn't see what was going on there, and because of the bad seat, she only watched half of the show.

Xia Jin simply didn't watch it, and went to the garden of the General's Mansion while everyone in the General's Mansion was watching the play.

The courtyard is extremely beautiful and well-designed. Xia Jin took out a pen and paper from her cloth bag, sat in the gazebo, and drew with a homemade charcoal pen.Draw on paper according to the layout here, thinking that if I have a yard in the future, I will also make a similar yard.

However, in the corridor opposite the gazebo, two maids came towards this side with trays.

"Is this going to be sent to the old matriarch?" The big maid Bi Tao blocked their way.

"Sister Bi Tao, the old matriarch called for Qiuli paste, which was just made in the kitchen!" The servant girl replied.

"Leave it to me, you two go to the theater, it's exciting now!" Bitao said.

The two maids looked at each other and said gratefully, "Then there is Sister Lao Bitao!" After speaking, they went to the stage together.

Seeing them leave, the smile on the corner of Bitao's mouth froze. She quickly took out a paper bag from her bosom, scattered some unknown things into Qiuli cream, stirred it with a spoon, and then quickly covered it.

Thinking that there was no one around, she quickly left, but Xia Jin noticed all of this.

"what is that?"

"Is she trying to harm the old lady!" Siji looked at Xia Jin. "Shall we remind the old lady?"

Xia Jin thought for a while and nodded. "Go and have a look first."

Bi Tao took the tray to the viewing platform in front of the stage, and put the Qiuli ointment on the table in front of the old lady.

"Old Madam, this is the autumn pear paste that has just been stewed in the kitchen, you have to eat it while it's hot." After finishing speaking, Bitao stepped aside.

Mrs. Sun tested the temperature outside the bowl with the back of her hand, and seeing that it was not hot, she said: "Old Madam, the temperature is just right for you to eat now. Drinking Qiuli ointment is good for your night cough!"

The old lady took the bowl, picked up the spoon and sent it to her mouth. Just as she was about to eat it, a fruit fell from the tree above her head and landed in the hand of the old lady along the shade shed. In the bowl and cup.

The old lady was so frightened that she accidentally knocked over the bowl in her hand and even dropped the spoonful of Qiuli ointment on the table.

"Old Madam, you haven't been burned!" Mrs. Sun hurried over to check.

Mrs. Gusu pushed Mrs. Sun away and squeezed over, "I have scald medicine here, Mrs. Madam, please use some!"

The old matriarch waved his hand, "This autumn pear paste is not hot, so it didn't hurt the old man, but why did the freshly formed green dates fall off?"

The old matriarch looked up and saw a bird pecking at the jujube, suddenly said: "So it was this little guy who provoked it."

After finishing speaking, she motioned for everyone to continue watching the play, Bi Tao cleaned up all the porridge on the floor, went outside the stage, and threw it into the trash basket in the corner.

After she left, Xia Jin walked over, picked up a piece and put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it. Roasted chopped peanuts were added to this autumn pear paste.

Isn't the old lady coughing at night? This is a typical hot cough. Eating peanuts in the fryer will only make the cough worse!
It may even cause coughing and suffocation when eating Qiuli paste.

Is it a coincidence, or is there a ghost in this mansion who wants to harm people?
Xia Jin clicked her tongue secretly, few of these mansions are clean!It's better to stay away from yourself.

However, it would be too immoral to harm an old man like this!

However, Xia Jin didn't want to participate in these intrigues and fight with them.

After thinking about it, Xia Jin took out a pen and paper, wrote down what she had just discovered, and attached some helpful recipes for the old lady.Sneak into the old lady's bedroom secretly and put it under the old lady's pillow.

"In this way, it should be safe."

In the afternoon, when the opera was over, Lin Ziyi helped the old lady go back to her room to rest, and walked out of the room with Master Lin one after the other through the corridor.

Lin Ziyi glanced at him and said, "Lord Lin, you are very diligent in coming to the General's residence."

Master Lin scratched his head, with a simple and honest look, said: "To be filial to the old lady is what we juniors should do. As long as the old lady is happy, I wish I could come every day!"

"Three months ago, this general set out to conquer Beimenguan, you were also at the residence, right?" Lin Ziyi's voice was flat, without any disturbance.

"When the general was going out, I was in the capital! I was afraid that the old lady would be worried about the general and would become ill, so I would come here every now and then to find some new gadgets to relieve the old lady's worries!" Lord Lin said.

"Have you been discussing the general's expedition with your grandmother?" Lin Ziyi stopped, his eyes fell on his face.

Master Lin raised the corners of his mouth, still with the same simple and honest appearance, "What the old lady and I are talking about is about missing and worrying about the general."

Lin Ziyi withdrew his gaze and continued walking forward, said calmly: "Master Lin recently opened a restaurant in the capital, and the three-story building is bigger than the Desheng Building!"

Master Lin stopped in his tracks, his eyes dodged, "My son Lin Chang drove it, not me."

"That boy Lin Chang has been doing business all the time. He has made a good profit recently. He made a fortune, and then he spent all of it to open a restaurant!"

"General, why are you asking this all of a sudden?" Lord Lin wiped the sweat from his forehead.
