Reborn into this life before the age of two, my Father vanished on his way to the provincial exam in the capital—alive, he was never found; dead, his body never returned. That very month, Grandfa...
565 is a problem
Ping An brought Chen Sheng to Chang Mansion.
"Master, you are here."
As soon as the gatekeeper saw Ping'an, he hurriedly opened the gate and let the people and the carriage in.
"Ping An, this house is very big."
Ping'an smiled. Next year his Ping'an Marquis Mansion would be bigger and more beautiful, and not far from his master's Jing'an Marquis Mansion. It would only take a quarter of an hour by carriage.
But the location is not as convenient as it is now. Ping An doesn't really want to move, but it's too early to say this now. The decoration will be completed in May or June next year, and even if we move, it will have to be after August or September.
Chang Chunfeng and his wife came over with their child.
"Ping An, Chen Sheng, you are here."
Ping An bowed and said, "Ping An greets father and mother."
Chang Chunfeng introduced Zhang Jinyu again, "This is the Chen Sheng I told you about. He is now temporarily staying at Ping'an's house. Chen Sheng, this is my wife."
"Chen Sheng pays his respects to Lord Chang and Madam."
Chang Jin and Chang Yan also bowed to Ping An and Chen Sheng.
Chang Chunfeng said, "Sheng'er, this is Jin'er, and this is Yan'er, they are also your younger brothers and sisters."
Chen Sheng quickly took out two jade beads and handed them over: "It's just a small gift, a token of my appreciation. Sister Jin'er and brother Yan'er, please don't despise it."
His heart suddenly became sad. If his two younger sisters were still alive, they would be teenagers.
Zhang Jinyu smiled and said, "Chen Sheng, from now on just call us uncle and aunt. Come here with Ping An to have New Year's dinner during the New Year."
"Chen Sheng thanks uncle and aunt."
"Okay, Ping An and Chen Sheng, come with me to the study. Madam, tell the cook to prepare a sumptuous dinner."
"Got it, sir."
Zhang Jinyu turned around and let out a sigh. This was the child who had been her husband's father for six years. Her husband mentioned him to her last night. She thought she would feel a little uncomfortable when they met, but she felt very strange and calm.
Her feelings towards this child were different from her feelings towards Ping An. No matter how good Ping An was to this family, she could not be enthusiastic about him.
One is that her mother had passed away a long time ago, and her husband disliked her and didn't want to mention her; the other is that her mother lived with her in the capital, and her husband felt guilty about her and couldn't forget their old love.
But now these are no longer a problem.
If this matter had not been handled peacefully, I'm afraid it would not have ended well. During the days she was at her mother's house, her father, brother and sister-in-law analyzed a lot of things for her. It's not that she didn't understand, but she was too proud at the time and didn't care about many things at all.
Even if I repented, my father insisted on taking me to a country farm on the 16th day of the first lunar month to live there for a year. If one year didn't work, then two years. If two years didn't work, then my husband would divorce me. My father didn't get angry easily, but when he did, even my brother couldn't do anything about it.
That is to say, she cannot be with her husband for at least a year. She doesn't know if there will be other people around her husband during this period. It is common for men nowadays to have three wives and four concubines.
She was very uneasy.
Jin'er followed her mother, but Chang Yan hung on her eldest brother, so Ping'an simply "flew" with him in the yard.
Chang Chunfeng turned around and smiled at the two children.
It was the first time that Chen Sheng saw Ping An have this ability, and he couldn't stop smiling for a long time.
He didn't know what else Ping An didn't know.
"Sheng'er, let's go in first. It's cold outside."
Ping An played with Yan Er for a while: "Okay, it's cold outside, go find your sister."
"Brother, I want to learn Kung Fu from you. Can you take me to your house?"
"After the New Year, you can ask your parents yourself. If they say it's okay, then I'm okay with it." Ping'an ignored him and walked towards the study.
The child is very cute and there is nothing wrong with him taking care of him, but his stepmother will not agree and his biological father is embarrassed to agree too.
Baicaotang.
This was the third time the shopkeeper came out. He clasped his hands together and said, "Everyone, please go back. It's so cold. What if you get frozen? The eldest master is really not here. If he was, he would have come out long ago.
I will tell the eldest master about this later. As far as I know, it is still impossible to cure the disease you mentioned. The best we can do is control it."
A middle-aged man knelt down with a plop. "Boss, please talk to the eldest son. We don't know whether the young master of the Bai family has cut off his roots or not, but we do know that he really has this disease. It is true that they are already talking about marriage. The eldest son and Master Ping'an have amazing medical skills. My family only has this one root. If it is cut off, there will be no descendants."
The shopkeeper sighed, "I promise to tell the eldest master about this and ask him to think of a solution for you all, but it's not a good idea for you all to be here, so go home."
The middle-aged man stood up and said, "Thank you, boss. I'll come back tomorrow to get more information."
The Sun family soon found out about this.
Sun Yinan said: "I can only say that you need to prepare the medicinal materials. These medicines are difficult to make, and we can't start until the eighth day of the first lunar month. Sicheng, this disease can be treated with a few people with good protection, but I still feel uneasy if I treat so many people, I have to disperse them.
Also, the silver needles must be used at the same time as the medicine, most doctors won't do that. If it really doesn't work, Siyuan and I will help you. Awu is about to give birth, so Ping'an is better off not attending, after all it's a germ."
Sun Sicheng shook his head and said, "I'd better come alone. Let me think about it. The Bai family is really something. Manager Bai is dead, and we must appease his family. Now that the trouble has come to me, they are all here."
The old man sighed, "The person is dead, how can people not be angry? My eyesight is not good now, even with the glasses given by Ping An, I can't see clearly. Otherwise, I can help Sicheng. Let's think about this matter again.
Sicheng, have you ever thought about this? If many people know about this, what will happen if many people with this disease come here? I don't want you to be in contact with such patients all day long."
The eldest wife of the Bai family at this time.
Master Bai Er hurried over and said, "Dad, big brother, something happened."
Old Master Bai was shocked: "What's the matter? Is Jiaming's illness recurring?"
"That's not the case. Dad, do you still remember the steward who died earlier?"
"Of course I remember. He has been in the Bai family for many years. What a pity."
"Dad, big brother, this morning a lot of people suddenly came to the entrance of Baicao Hall. They were all family members of people who had this disease. Some of them brought their own patients with them. They kept saying that the eldest master and his apprentice cured Jiaming, and begged them to cure their own family members.
It was almost noon when I found out about this. As soon as I found out, the family that was looking for a date for Jiaming sent a matchmaker to reject him and scolded my husband and me.
I sent people to investigate, and found out that it was the housekeeper who let the secret slip at the market. I say let the secret slip because she must have known that Jia Mingzhi was about to recover and was planning a marriage, so she did something bad on purpose.
Our family has been very kind to her, giving her a lot of compensation and releasing her family from their bonds. What else do you want? Jiaming's mother wanted to come over and beat her, but I stopped her and decided to come over to discuss it with my father and eldest brother first."
Lord Bai asked, "Second Brother, have you sent someone to check at Baicao Hall?"
"Of course I went, big brother. Those people surrounded Baicaotang for almost a day, and the eldest son and the master of the Sun family did not show up. I heard that those who came to see the doctor and buy medicine were scared away, fearing that they would be infected. Dad, big brother, if this happens, it will be difficult for Jiaming to marry."
The old man sighed deeply, "Jiaming will only be twenty next year. The eldest son has told you again that Jiaming is only about 70% better and cannot get married for the time being, but it will not prevent him from studying at home.
They are risking their own infection to treat our family members, but we have put them in such a difficult situation. We are really sorry for them. Second brother, I will accompany you to apologize to Sun Sicheng tomorrow morning.
As for the housekeeper, you can go and warn her. Let’s just ignore it this time, but if it happens again, I will never let her off easily. Also, if her family delivers goods again, don’t accept them. If something is hidden in the goods, the Bai family will die without knowing it.”
