Red makeup against the world

Chapter 17

On this day, the Su family sent their mother-in-law to see Xu Wanzhen.First go to salute Mrs. Xu, and then report to Yingyun Pavilion.

"Grandma actually agrees with my uncle to go to Beijing?" Xu Wanzhen said in disbelief after reading the letter, "I don't know how my uncle persuaded me."

The old woman laughed and said, "Your grandmother said that practicing medicine is practiced in the world. Only by traveling around the world can you be called a doctor. You must be well-informed. Whether it is a disease or medicinal materials, you must see the diagnosis and treatment with your own eyes in order to gain experience. The young master can go out and make a living now, and she will be at ease by protecting you to the capital first. As for the parents who are not traveling far, why don't the young people stay at home?"

Xu Wan is really speechless, Grandma's thinking is really avant-garde, even in modern times, she is a proper new independent woman.

The old woman said again: "The old lady told the third master to spend the New Year at home with peace of mind. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I will come to Suzhou and go to the capital with you, miss."

Xu Wan was really happy that Third Master Su could go to Beijing together.After all, in this dynasty, it is not easy to travel long distances. It is of course great to have such a brilliant doctor as Su Sanye on the road together.Moreover, there are many male elders who can come forward to support whatever happens, which is much better than my own female generation.

Let Sangzi reward the mother-in-law without mentioning it.

In the letter, Third Master Su also told her to walk more every day and exercise her body. When he came to Suzhou, he would teach her to practice the health-preserving boxing techniques that he and Madam Zheng discussed together.

Strengthening physical fitness is what Xu Wanzhen has always wanted. In ancient times, women gave birth early, especially those who were raised in deep boudoirs.

Since the little uncle and Madam Zheng have a solution, then wait, anyway, these days are not bad.At present, I can follow my own method in modern times. Every morning, I go to treat Mrs. Xu to comfort and have breakfast, and then take Xu Wenyu to run a few laps in the small courtyard together to improve my heart and lung function and enhance my body coordination.

Seeing that it was getting late, he took Sangzi to the main room to greet Mrs. Xu.

When I arrived at Mrs. Xu's main room, before I entered the door, I heard Xu Wenyu's recitation: "Mother of the past, choose a neighbor, if you don't learn, you will break the machine...", articulate and fluent.

Mrs. Xu was quite satisfied with what she heard, and when Xu Wenyu finished reciting the "Three Character Classic", she took him into her arms and said, "Yu'er, do you want to go to the capital to recite the book with many big brothers?"

Xu Wenyu's bright eyes flashed, and he said, "Okay, okay! My grandson likes to memorize books, and now I have to memorize them all by myself. I'm a little bored."

Xu Wanzhen was surprised and said: "Grandmother intends to let Yu'er go to Beijing together?"

Mrs. Xu nodded, and said: "Yu'er is talented and likes to read, so don't let it go to waste. The Songxi Academy opened by your great-grandfather in the suburbs of Beijing has an excellent reputation, and several lecturers are talented. There are several Jinshi. The academy has set up an enlightenment class for young children. If you don’t let Yu’er go to the academy, you can find him a lecturer of the scriptures after enlightenment. If he wants to take an official career in the future, it will be easier than his second uncle’s path. Jiangnan Although the literary style is at its peak, famous literati rely on their status and are unwilling to have too many contacts with merchants, which will affect their reputation."

Hearing Mrs. Xu's careful consideration, obviously it was not a short-term decision, Xu Wanzhen said softly: "In that case, why not go to Beijing together with grandma? Today a letter came from my grandmother's house, and my uncle is going to Beijing with me too. Grandma said that practicing medicine is to gain more knowledge and knowledge in order to improve medical skills."

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xu was extremely moved.

She knew the name of Su Liangzhi from the Su family. The people in Jiangnan Road called his father Miracle Doctor Su and Miracle Doctor Su Xiao.

There are three sons in the Su family, the eldest and the second are well-behaved and not outstanding, they manage the Su family's medical clinic in Changzhou and live a stable life.

Only this old man, Su Liangzhi, has a lively personality, is extremely passionate about medical skills, and has unique insights.His father passed on all his medical skills, and took him around to practice medicine. He earned the title of "little genius doctor" at a young age.

The old father is ill, although there is no serious problem, if Su Liangzhi can take good care of him, he will be able to prolong his life with his physical condition.Immediately said: "I just learned a few days ago that your great-grandfather is not in good health, and I am a little worried."

"Grandmother, you can go to Beijing with us. Yu'er and I have left, and there is no one at home." Besides, the property was also sold, but Xu Wan really didn't say this. After all, the sale of property is what Mrs. Xu thought pain.

Xu Wenyu was also tired of Mrs. Xu's arms, and said coquettishly: "Yes, grandma, if you don't go, Yu'er will definitely miss you very much."

Mrs. Xu was amused by Xu Wenyu's many "wants" and made up her mind.

In fact, she knew in her heart that in Suzhou she was just nostalgic for the days she spent with Mrs. Xu, and the indecision in her heart all came from this.Leaving Suzhou, leaving this home, Mr. Xu's shadow will fade away.

Thinking back when my family was in decline, I had to marry far away in the south of the Yangtze River. Fortunately, Xu's mother-in-law was tolerant and her husband was considerate, and they survived the most difficult days.I still remember the wedding night in the bridal chamber, my husband's bright eyes and gentle smile made me feel at ease when I was terrified of marrying far away.

Decades of ups and downs have accompanied her. Now, her husband is getting farther and farther away, and I can't even protect his property. Thinking of this festival, I feel sad.If he returned to Beijing again, would he just leave most of his life behind like this?

Seeing Mrs. Xu's gloomy complexion, Xu Wanzhen knew what she was thinking, and said, "Don't worry, grandma, as long as our family is together, we are home everywhere." She held Mrs. Xu's hand, and said firmly: "These industries , as long as there is a person, sooner or later he can earn it back. Grandfather also relies on himself, and we can too."

Mrs. Xu looked at Xu Wanzhen and embraced Xu Wenyu. With these two children around, she was full of hope, and said, "Grandmother understands that people have to look forward. Well, I've decided. After a hundred days from your mother, we will be together." Let's go to Beijing together."

Xu Wenyu cheered after hearing the words: "That's great, that's great! Grandma is going to Beijing with us!" Saying "Paji", he kissed Mrs. Xu on the face, and the kissed Mrs. Xu burst into laughter.

After deciding to go to Beijing together, everyone felt much more comfortable, and there were suddenly more things to prepare and deal with before going to Beijing.

For the servants at home, those who have a certificate of residence and whose family is not in Suzhou will be brought to the capital; those who have a certificate of residence and family members will let go of the certificate and go home for reunion; An old man who has lived all his life, and his family is in Suzhou, so he stayed to guard the old Suzhou house.I was busy for a while, and it was the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye.
