Chapter 284 285 Warmth

Li Yu nodded and said: "I'm afraid Lin Zexu from the Imperial Academy in Kyoto knows about this. I have asked Qianzhuang to bring a letter to my aunt, asking her to recall whether my mother has ever mentioned her family."

"I think your mother doesn't want to go back to the Lin family, and she doesn't want to have anything to do with the Lin family anymore. Otherwise, why wouldn't she let your father take her to Yunzhou to find the Wang family?"

After hearing this, Li Yu felt that Zhou Jia's analysis was right, "We will know when my aunt replies. If she does not want to have anything to do with the Lin family, I will not investigate anymore." Li Yu thought of Zhou Jia's words about Wang Qinghai and looked at him worriedly. He said, "You said there is something wrong with Wang Qinghai. Will he be detrimental to you?"

Zhou Jia hugged Li Yu, kissed him, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I will be careful. I want to go to the academy first to find a husband for Yang'er and Qijin."

The couple cuddled together and sat quietly until Yangyang ran in and saw the two of them shouting: "Dad, mother, I want a hug too."

"Okay, hug." Zhou Jia smiled and picked him up and sat between the two of them. Yangyang raised his head and pulled the two of them for a kiss, looking at them with a smile.

The couple also smiled and kissed him on the face, and Li Yu asked softly: "Aren't you growing medicine in the back garden with your master?"

Yangyang leaned in Zhou Jia's arms and yawned, "After planting, the master will teach Brother Qijin how to recognize herbal medicine. The master said Brother Qijin has a talent."

The couple looked at each other. Is the husband interested in Qijing? Do you want to pass on your medical skills to him? Zhou Jia put the dazed and sleepy Yangyang in Li Yu's arms and whispered, "I'll go to see Mr.

Zhou Jia arrived at the courtyard and saw Mr. Wen mixing several herbs together for Qijin to distinguish. Qijin picked them out one by one and muttered softly, "This is dendrobium, this is gardenia." Son, this is motherwort...seven or eight kinds of medicinal materials, clearly distinguished.

Mr. Wen touched Qijin's head, looked at Zhou Jia and said with a 'haha' smile: "Unexpectedly, Qijin from Ruyi's family has some talent in identifying medicinal materials. When the child is older, I will ask Ruyi and his wife if they are willing. Children study medicine.”

Zhou Jia smiled and nodded, "You're right, I'll ask you again when he's older."

Ma Gui and Awei took Uncle Gu to the cart shop to rent two mules and took them back to the government office. Li Yu handed the rice seeds to several people and told Awei: "You and Uncle Gu's family go Go to Dafeng Mountain and give them the method of soaking grain seeds, and then come back."

Ah Wei bowed and said, "Madam, I understand." Everyone helped tie the rice seeds to the back of the mule and sent several people out of the government office.

Wang Qinghai came out of the custody room, glanced at the hanging flower door leading to the back office, and thought to himself: The second uncle told him to help him keep an eye on the magistrate's family, but the clan has been rejected by the emperor, and now the magistrate is a popular person in front of the emperor. , the second uncle is still thinking about causing trouble for his wife. It seems that Ah Yue's temperament of being retaliatory and overestimating one's own abilities was passed down from the second uncle, so it would be better for him to interfere less with it. Wang Qinghai made up his mind and suddenly felt that he was much more relaxed and walked out of the Yamen with brisk steps.

Mrs. Lin sat on the chair with a gloomy face. Aunt Han stood aside and comforted her: "Madam, you have to cheer up for the sake of the eldest and second young masters. The master has already gone out to find the young lady. Don't miss the chance that you are sick again when she comes back." fall down."

Mrs. Lin gritted her teeth and said, "Nanny, you don't have to persuade me. I know Ah Yue will never be found again. What happened to Ah Yue was the fault of that woman from the magistrate's Yamen. You listen to me and let people continue to keep an eye on the magistrate's Yamen. He Doesn’t the family have a son? I want her to taste the feeling of losing a child.”

Aunt Han hesitated for a moment, "The old man and the old lady have given instructions that you and the old man are not allowed to provoke the magistrate's family."

Mrs. Lin glanced at her and said coldly: "You are my nanny, not that damn old woman's slave. I know she has never liked me over the years. She likes that damn ghost."

Aunt Han covered Mrs. Lin's mouth in panic: "My ancestors! Don't be so careless when your temper comes up. You have to think about the two young masters."

Mrs. Lin hugged Grandma Han's waist and said heartbrokenly: "Nanny, that is the daughter I gave birth to in ten months of pregnancy, my only daughter! It must have been that bitch who did it. I want revenge."

Aunt Han hugged Mrs. Lin and comforted her softly: "Nanny knows, but you have to think about the two young masters. Besides, don't I hate that bitch too? Just wait for me to vent my anger on you." Aunt Han persuaded Mrs. Lin for a long time, and finally persuaded Mrs. Lin. She walked towards her room exhausted, shaking her head and thinking: How come a person of several decades still has the same temperament to do whatever he wants.

Li Yu was sorting out the accounts in the study. As soon as he came out of the study, Mrs. Liu was holding a cup of white fungus soup and said to Li Yu with a smile: "Madam, the old lady picked the white fungus back from the mountains and told me to stew it for you to drink."

Li Yu took the white fungus soup and tasted it. It was lukewarm and just right. "It tastes good. Sir, you even picked white fungus!"

Mrs. Liu said happily: "Isn't it? The old man said that the mountain mushrooms brought by Uncle Guyu today are the most nourishing to eat, so I said to use chickens to stew the mushrooms. The old man said that in Tongzhou that year, you stewed the mushrooms with wild ducks. It tastes the best.”

Li Yu laughed, "Oh! The old man wants to eat game! The game right now is not rich enough. In a few days, the Zhuangzi outside Xicheng will be repaired, so Ruyi and the others can go to the mountains to have a look."

"I used the mushrooms to make a few jars of the meat sauce you taught me to make, and the other mushrooms were dried in the sun."

"Okay," Li Yu thought for a moment and said, "You give Mrs. Tongzhi next door and Mrs. Tongpan next door each a jar of the prepared mushroom sauce."

"Okay!" Seeing that Li Yu used the food she made to give to other officials' wives, Mrs. Liu happily agreed and sent mushroom sauce.

Xinghua ran in in a panic and shouted: "Madam, go and see, sister-in-law Xiaoyu has fainted."

Li Yu was also startled, "Why did you faint? Go and ask the old man." Li Yu hurriedly ran to Xiaoyu's room and saw her lying on the couch with a pale face. Li Yu stepped forward and touched her forehead. Not feeling hot, Xiaoyu smiled weakly and said, "Madam, I'm fine. I just got up in a hurry and fainted when my vision went dark."

Li Yu looked at Xiaoyu, remembering that she would faint due to lack of energy and blood during pregnancy, and asked with a smile: "Xiaoyu, are you pregnant?"

Xiaoyu shook her head, "No way! I came here last month, but not many."

"That's not necessarily the case. The gentleman will be here soon. Please ask him to take a look at it and it will become clear."

"What's wrong with Xiaoyu?" Mr. Wen asked at the door. Li Yu walked over and said to him with a smile: "I think she may be pregnant."

After listening to Li Yu's words, Xiaoyu thought that Qijin was almost four years old and she had never been pregnant before. She stretched out her wrist hopefully, "Old Master, show me."
