With her father and brother banished, and her engagement to the marquisate broken, everyone eagerly awaited to see Xiao Jiuyue become a laughingstock.
Facing her frail grandmother, her beauti...
Chapter 665: See if they still have the nerve!
"Of course I believe it. Otherwise, how do you think Jiutou Village changed from a bandit village to a village of civilians?"
"Before, people from the surrounding villages all stayed away from Jiutou Village, but now, everyone is trying their best to marry their daughters to Jiutou Village."
"When I returned to Beijing from Hongdu, I went to Jiutou Village to take a look. It didn't look like a bandit village at all!"
In order to support her words, Xiao Tingwu said a lot in one breath.
"Wow, this, this is amazing!" Jun Qin came back to his senses and began to praise: "Those vicious and evil bandits have become ordinary people. That's a great merit."
"That's right, the bandits near our home are really burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of evil!" Lu Yu said with gritted teeth, "My father was killed by bandits, and my mother too..."
Lu Yu’s eyes looked like he wanted to kill someone!
"If I could meet the Queen, maybe..." Lu Yu choked.
"There are bandits in the village next to ours. I heard that they robbed us of everything. If we had met the Queen, she would have taught them how to farm and we wouldn't have died."
"Lu Yu, from now on, there will definitely be no more bandits. We can live in peace."
"Yes, let's study medicine well. In the future, when our family members are sick, we don't have to worry about not being able to afford medical treatment or medicine!"
As female students here, not only do they not have to worry about food, drink, defecation and urination, they are also paid!
"Yes." Tears welled up in Lu Yu's eyes. She had to study hard so that she could save her mother and grandfather in the future.
Everyone comforted Lu Yu. Lu Yu wiped her tears and said, "Ting Wu, what happened next? What did you do after you arrived in Hongdu?"
From the glorious Shangshu Mansion to the daughter of a criminal, life must have been very difficult, right?
When Lu Yu thought about it, she suddenly felt that her life seemed to be much better than the Queen's situation. Her father died for her mother, and her mother went crazy, but her grandparents treated her very well and never looked down on her just because she was a girl!
Xiao Tingwu recounted in detail what happened after they arrived in Hongdu. Lu Yu was particularly impressed. She secretly vowed that in the future, she would become a useful person and let her family live a good life!
The Queen Mother was able to make the Xiao family better and better even in desperate situations, and she also earned so much money. So many rumors did not defeat the Queen Mother, and she should take them as an example!
From that day on, Mr. Wang discovered that these girls studied medicine more seriously. Not only did they complete all the studies he assigned them, they also often completed them ahead of time.
Even those students who are not very literate are making rapid progress.
Mr. Wang taught these girls even more attentively, wishing to tell them all the knowledge he had learned throughout his life.
Imperial Palace.
Xiao Jiuyue received good news, Luo Kui was pregnant!
"Now that there are two more pregnant women in the palace, you won't have to come here every day to do errands." Xiao Jiuyue said as she picked out a variety of supplements from the storeroom and gave them two copies, saying, "Take good care of your bodies and your babies!"
Xiao Jiuyue stared at Hua Qing and Luo Kui's bellies. Even though it was still a young age and their bellies were flat, Xiao Jiuyue was particularly happy when she thought that there would be two more children next year.
"Little Star, from now on, there will be children to play with you. Are you happy?" Xiao Jiuyue pinched Little Star's face.
When Jun Lie came home from court, he saw Xiao Jiuyue pinching Xiao Xingxing's face. He strode forward and hugged Xiao Xingxing in his arms. Staring at her red face, he said, "Yu'er, didn't you say you can't pinch her face? You'll drool when you do that."
"Hehe, I just touched it, I didn't pinch it." Xiao Jiuyue looked at him with a guilty conscience. They had agreed at the beginning that their daughter's face should not be pinched. Although her daughter's education was her responsibility, she didn't want her daughter to drool.
Jun Lie saw it at a glance. He kissed his daughter on the cheek and said, "I have something happy to tell you today."
"A great harvest?"
Xiao Jiuyue finished speaking and shook his head again: "No, the autumn harvest hasn't arrived yet. However, there were no floods in Xiangcheng this year, and Jiashui City didn't fight with the Xijiang Kingdom. General Qin sent a large army to Yongzhao, and Yongzhao couldn't make any waves. What good news is there?"
"About you." Jun Lie looked at her with a smile in his eyes.
Xiao Jiuyue pointed at herself and said uncertainly, "Are you sure this is about me? Aren't those court officials always trying to fill your harem with people, thinking that I, the queen, am too jealous?"
Xiao Jiuyue still has self-awareness. She gave birth to Xiao Xingxing, and she was the only woman in the harem. However, those court officials who had nothing to do after eating wanted to stuff people into the harem every few days.
"No, no, no, they praised the Queen's virtue." Jun Lie didn't continue to keep the secret and said, "Do you remember your free clinic last time?"
"Of course I remember. I have been providing free medical services every month in the past few months!" Xiao Jiuyue really does what he says and provides free medical services every month to the poor people who cannot afford medical treatment!
The master is responsible for looking after the men, and she is responsible for looking after the women and girls!
"Well, let me show you something good!" Jun Lie snapped his fingers, and soon, Guo Sheng came in with his men, carrying a plaque.
"What is this?" Xiao Jiuyue looked at the plaque in confusion. He stood up and took a look, and couldn't help but say, "This, this is..."
Xiao Jiuyue leaned forward to take a look and said, "Is this a thank-you letter? There are a lot of signatures on it."
"Wang Guizhi, Zhou Meiya, Li Xiang, Liu Cuicui..."
Xiao Jiuyue looked at the familiar names and couldn't help but say, "These are the illnesses I treated before!"
"Yes." Jun Lie stood up, holding Little Star in his arms, and said, "This is a thank-you letter that Wang Guizhi specially asked someone to write to you. She praised your superb medical skills, saying you are the reincarnation of Hua Tuo, virtuous and righteous, and a role model for women."
All the good words were directed at Xiao Jiuyue, making her laugh. She said, "Wang Guizhi is really something. It's just a medical treatment, but she makes such a big fuss!"
"This letter is really well written." Xiao Jiuyue's eyes curved with laughter as she said, "But, isn't it a bit too exaggerated?"
Xiao Jiuyue looked at Jun Lie embarrassedly.
Jun Lie said seriously, "How could it be? The Queen is so kind and virtuous that she personally presided over the free clinic. Who among the people of Shengjing wouldn't praise Nanyue for having such a good Queen?"
"No matter how good the words are, they are not excessive when used to praise you!" Jun Lie looked at her with a smile and said, "I specially had it framed and will hang it in the imperial study. What do you think?"
"Ah?" Xiao Jiuyue was shocked. Looking at Jun Lie's serious expression, she asked, "Are you serious? The Imperial Study is where you meet with court officials. This isn't good."
"I just want to let those ministers who have nothing to do but eat their fill open their eyes and take a good look. The queen is so good, who would dare to stuff people into the harem?" Jun Lie stared at him seriously, and the seriousness in his eyes showed that he was serious.
