Chapter 82
Li Jingjing raised her small fist in protest, and shouted: "Ah, aunt, you didn't remember the name of the goat milk beauty cream. You didn't even listen to me carefully."

The nobleman smiled and said: "My lady Jing, I was wrong, please say it again, this time I will remember it carefully."

He Shi asked: "Sister, I have applied insect repellent ointment to you before you go to bed for the past few days, do you think the medicine is effective?"

The nobleman was slightly surprised, and said: "I said why the mosquitoes don't bite me anymore." Then he said: "My Jing Niang, your elder brother Ye is studying in the academy, which is built in the mountains, and there are many mosquitoes. If you still have insect repellent cream , I’ll give you some brother Ye.”

Li Jingjing nodded, ran out of the room, and brought a small can in a while, and put it together with four small cans.

He Shi stretched out his palm and asked, "What else?"

Li Jingjing sighed softly, took out a small cyan porcelain bottle and put it in the palm of He's hand, said helplessly: "Mother, I was thinking of giving it to my aunt tomorrow, you insist on letting me take it out now."

The nobleman asked curiously, "What?"

"Bao Ming Wan. You must take it with you." He whispered in the nobleman's ear, and the nobleman looked at Li Jingjing with more gratitude and pampering eyes.

It rained heavily the next morning, and it stopped around noon.

Before the nobleman left the mansion, he had agreed with the old lady Ming about the time. If she didn't come back today, the mansion would be very anxious and send people everywhere to look for her. Next time she thought it would be difficult to stay in the Li family for a few days, so she Must rush back.

The He family knew that the noble family had many rules, and the Tanzhou Duke's Mansion had countless people staring at it, and they didn't even dare to keep the nobleman for a meal, so he asked Li Laoshi and Li Yunqing to send the nobleman to the official road in Taihe Town.

After returning home, He Shi went to the bedroom to look at the presents brought by the nobleman.

Three jewelry boxes full of jewels were for her, Qu Shi, and Li Jingjing.

A set of Four Treasures of Chang’an’s time-honored study is for Li Qubing, two swords for Li Laoshi and Li Yunqing, several sets of educational toys for Li Yunxiao, four baskets of snacks and dried fruits, and a red leather envelope with silver notes.

If you add the meeting gifts given to Li Yunqing and the twins by the nobleman, the three pieces of jade pendants are worth as much as 8000 taels of silver.

He Shi held a large stack of 30 taels of silver notes in his hand, and said softly: "Sister, you really have a heart. Knowing that the Li family is not rich, you specially exchanged the 3000 taels of silver notes for a hundred 30 taels of silver notes. .”

Li honestly said: "Sister Yi, you should keep your sister's money first, and then go to Tanzhou Mansion to visit her and buy all the money as gifts for her."

He Shi regretted a little: "I should have revealed to my elder sister Jingmeizi's selling medicine to make money, so that she would not think that we are living in poverty."

Li Laoshi lowered his head and asked, "My sister doesn't like me?"

He Shi scolded, "How did you know that sister doesn't like you?"

Li Laoshi said slowly: "Even if my sister doesn't say it, I know it in my heart. I am not an official, so I can't give you wealth."

He leaned on Li Laoshi's shoulder proactively, and said softly: "My sister said that if you become rich in the future, you can also be as dedicated to me as you are now, and you can be regarded as my good husband."

Li Laoshi embraced He Shi's waist, and confessed tenderly: "No matter whether you are rich or poor in this life, I will only have you as a guest."

Let's say that He Huishu drove for four hours in a two-horse carriage, and didn't arrive at the Tanzhou Duke's Mansion until it was dark.

She entered the mansion and got off the carriage, without even caring about washing her face and eating, she went straight to the old lady Ming's yard.

The two little servants guarding the gate saluted and said respectfully: "Second madam."

A second-class servant in the yard rushed up to greet her, and said softly: "Second madam, the second master will return to the residence this time, and he has been with the old lady all the time."

The corners of He Huishu's mouth turned up, and when he entered the room, he saw the white-haired Ming family lying on the mahogany imperial concubine couch with a mat, squinting his eyes and listening tiredly to Qin Yue's words, while four first-class servants stood with their heads down On the side, said softly: "Granddaughter-in-law pays her respects to grandma."

Ming's slender eyes opened, he stretched out his left hand, sat up supported by Qin Yue, and said in Tanzhou dialect: "If you don't come back, I will ask Yue Yazi to look for you."

"It rained heavily in Liuyang County this morning, and it has been falling for two hours. I came out late, so I missed dinner with you." He Huishu greeted Qin Yue with a slight nod, and sat next to the Ming family. Beside her, pinched her shoulders and asked, "How is grandma doing these days?"

Ming shook his head, and said disgruntledly: "It's not good. Other people's lectures are not good. I just want to hear you lecture to me."

Ming's natal family was originally a fisherman in the Xiangjiang River. She could not read a single word, and she preferred to listen to books in her later years.

He Huishu knows Ming's character very well, and she specializes in telling short, homely stories that she likes to hear, and she speaks them vividly, which she especially likes to listen to.

Mingshi is 77 years old this year, his teeth have fallen out early, but he has a particularly gluttonous mouth.

He Huishu was also a glutton when she was a girl, but later she couldn't eat meat because of a bad stomach. She understood Ming's mood very well, and asked the kitchen to make Ming's food without teeth.

He Huishu treats Ming sincerely, although Ming is old but not stupid, he likes her very much and relies on her very much.

"If grandma is not good, it's my fault." He Huishu said with a smile on her face, "I'll tell you a new little story, and you can go rest after listening, okay?"

Qin Yue stared at He Huishu with bullish eyes, and saw that she was casually combing a slanted bun and wearing a snow-blue long skirt, but her face was like peaches and plums, her brows were full of joy, and she was full of energy. She was even more beautiful than if she had been well-dressed. The tired look of the carriage to Tanzhou.

When Ming heard that there was a new story, he smiled and said, "Okay."

After He Huishu used the snacks in the carriage, she took the Ningshen pills given by Li Jingjing, slept all the way, and didn't think about the little story at all. Right now, in order to make Mingshi happy, she used leech poison on her stepmother whom she had seen in Qujia Village. Let me tell you about the killing of the first gamete.

Ming was angry and angry when he heard it, and cursed his stepmother, and after hearing the ending, tears filled his eyes, and said: "The female pharmacist and the patriarch are really good people."

Seeing that Ming's emotions were vented, He Huishu asked, "Don't you think Xiaotong's grandfather's family is doing well?"

Ming said: "That's what they should do. Are you right?"

He Huishu nodded and said: "Yes. You can't be more right. Grandpa's family is Xiaotong's direct relatives, and adopting Xiaotong is justified."

Ming asked He Huishu to tell another story, He Huishu shook her head and said, "Grandma, you see it's getting late, you should rest quickly. I'll tell you a new story tomorrow."

"The new story you tell tomorrow must be more exciting than today's." Ming made a request, and was supported by two first-class servants to take a bath and rest, and the other two first-class servants sent He Huishu and Qin Yue out of the yard .
