"Master Lu, my brother Jie is definitely fond of his bed." Xiao Lingyu arrived and said, "He has to study and learn to read every day at noon to prepare for next year's Tongsheng exam. He can't slack off for a single day."
The murderer behind the scenes has not been found out yet. Wouldn’t Brother Jie’s life be in danger if he stayed in the mansion?
Su Ningjie was full of questions when he heard this. He slept very well and would fall asleep as soon as he lay down without being particular about his bed.
However, this was a good excuse to reject his great-grandfather, as he actually didn't want to stay overnight at the Lu Mansion.
"Yes, great-grandfather. I'm afraid of strangers and won't be able to sleep all night. Mother has to teach me to read and write every day at noon to prepare for the Tongsheng exam next spring. I must work hard and pass it."
After hearing what Su Ningjie said, Lu Shiyuan liked him even more. "Okay, okay, after you pass the exam to become a student, why don't you stay at the Lu Mansion for a few days?"
Su Ningjie picked up another grape and passed it to Lu Shiyuan's mouth. "I'll be seven years old when I pass the exam to become a student. I should not be accustomed to my bed anymore."
"Hahaha...you little clever ghost." Lu Shiyuan said and ate the grapes in his mouth in one bite.
"Sister, it's getting late. I'll check on Yao'er again. If there's nothing wrong, the three of us will go back."
While Xiao Lingyu was taking Lu Yao's pulse, he glanced at Su Min and others.
Lu Yuan asked, "Sister, how is it? Do you need a new prescription?"
Xiao Lingyu said, "I need to prescribe a new prescription. The previous one was too strong. I'll change to a milder one, but it will take longer for Sister Yao'er to recover."
Lu Yuan said, "Then prescribe a mild prescription. Sister Yao'er has been drinking herbal medicine all year round, and her body really can't stand strong medicines. It's safer to go slower."
Then Xiao Lingyu pretended to prescribe a new prescription.
Of course, it is the same as the original recipe, but other medicinal ingredient names are used instead.
"Sister, you still need to take the white pills once a day."
"Okay, I'll remember that."
Afterwards, the mother and her two children talked with the Lu family in the octagonal pavilion before leaving.
After watching the three people leave, Lu Yuan arranged for Su Min, Qiao Yun and others to send Lu Yao back to the room.
Nan Xiang sniffed softly, "Miss, the scent of the second lady's perfume has faded. Do you want to apply some more?"
"Miss, please do not use the scented lotion on the Second Miss again." Nanny Sumin said hurriedly, "The Second Miss fainted today. Besides the strong effects of the medicine, I think it may have something to do with the scented lotion."
Mrs. Su has to prescribe new prescriptions, that's because she is not well-trained.
Lu Yuan pursed her lips and said, "But this fragrance has a calming effect. My sister has always had trouble falling asleep. How can she do it without the calming incense?"
Su Min said, "Then use the original calming incense powder. The second lady has always used it without any problems."
Qiao Yun pursed her lips slightly and stepped forward to agree, "My lady, I think what Madam said makes sense. It would be more appropriate to use the tranquilizing incense powder. After all, the incense powder shop has never had any incense dew before."
Nan Xiang thought for a moment and said, "My lady, I also think it's better to use the original calming incense."
Lu Yuan said, "Well, let's freshen up the room today to get rid of the scent of the dew. We can use the calming powder on Sister Yao'er tomorrow."
After Lu Yuan left, she went to Si Chuyu's study and told him in detail what Xiao Lingyu had said to her.
Si Chuyu's gentle eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, "Ayuan, the traitor will be exposed in a few days."
…
"Third brother, let big brother hold you."
Su Ningwen held a pile of books with all her might, blushing as she said, "I...I can hold it."
"Don't be so stubborn."
"I don't."
Su Ningwen took all his strength, got on the mahjong stool and entered the carriage. He put down his book and lay down on the table, breathing heavily.
When Xiao Lingyu came in with the eldest and second sons, holding a book, Su Ningwen was still lying on the table with the book on his shoulder.
Wow, the third child really loves books.
Xiao Lingyu put down the book and pulled him up to sit beside him. "Third brother, now that all the books are bought, you will stay at home and study behind closed doors. You are not allowed to go anywhere, understand?"
Su Ningwen looked at the tall book and asked, "After Wu Xiucai returns to the village, can I go find him?"
Xiao Lingyu raised his eyebrows. He knew how to learn from excellent people. He was indeed a smart kid.
"sure."
Xiao Lingyu looked at the makeup on Su Ningwen's face. Even if he was a top student, he had to let him study in the academy for a few more years. At least he would not be allowed to go to Huayang County to take the imperial examination for the next ten years. He would be safe for the time being.
Su Ning'an and Su Ningjie looked at the tall books in front of them and looked at Su Ningwen with sympathy.
Why does my third brother like reading when there are so many other things he likes?
How boring and tedious is that?
Xiao Lingyu seemed to see through their thoughts and casually said, "Books contain golden houses and beautiful women. Third brother, you can make a lot of money just by talking. Oh, and you can also punish criminals according to the law. Are you two really not considering taking the imperial examination and becoming high-ranking officials in the future?"
Su Ningjie shook his head. "I won't be fooled. I want to make the Su family's business bigger and stronger than the Lu family in the future."
Xiao Lingyu opened his eyes wide in shock. What an idealistic ancient child.
"Yes, I won't be fooled. I'll just try to pass the exam and become a student. I still prefer painting."
"Brother, you have great strength, but it's a waste of your talent if you only use it in painting," Su Ningwen felt that the strength should be used in more useful places.
Su Ning'an raised his eyebrows and said, "Then I can go hunting while I paint?"
Su Ningwen frowned slightly. "The book says that if you have a strong body, you can go into battle to kill the enemy and protect the people. Brother, you have great strength, why don't you consider becoming a majestic general?"
"General?"
"Yes, you can lead the troops to kill the enemy and protect the people of Beiyi. You are the people's hero."
Su Ning'an looked at Xiao Lingyu, "Mother, can I become a general?"
Xiao Lingyu always avoided discussing matters of defending the country with his children.
The original owner's grandfather and father spent their entire lives serving the royal family, but in the end they were still suspected by the emperor and their entire family was exiled.
"So do you want to be a general, or do you prefer painting?"
Su Ningan thought for a moment and said, "At the moment I like painting."
"Then you can paint, and when you want to be a general, tell mother."
After returning to the Su family courtyard, Xiao Lingyu pulled Su Ningjie to remove his makeup and plucked a few more hairs. He closed the door and entered the space under the pretext of changing clothes. He extracted the cells from the hair follicles of Su Ningjie and Lu Yuan as quickly as possible for whole-cell kinship testing.
If Lu Yuan had not kept it secret, Su Ningjie would not be a child of the Lu family, unless the murderer behind the scenes did something so cruel as digging up graves and throwing them into a mass grave.
"Mother of the child, are you sure?" Su Xingyi supported himself with one hand and turned right to enter the main room.
