Chapter 30 Filial Sons and Virtuous Grandsons

After the old lady fainted, the entire upper room seemed like a morgue at dawn, strangely quiet. The old

lady was usually a bit dignified, and there were many filial sons and virtuous grandsons around her. Usually, when she had a headache or a fever, the entire upper room was crowded with people who came to visit.

Now she fainted all of a sudden, and no one dared to step forward to help.

The old lady’s favorite granddaughter, Jian Chuyun, who wanted to seize the legitimate wife even if she ate a grape, seemed to be mute, hiding behind Xiao Shi with her legs hugged.

Xiao Shi also pushed the two concubines in front, not wanting to stand out.

Xue from the third room and her daughter Jian Chuxia were so scared that they hugged each other. These filial sons and

virtuous grandsons who were most valued by the old lady were now in a panic, fearing that they would be related to the old lady.

Everyone has some secrets, and if they are exposed to the public, their spine will be broken.

Everyone present is trembling with fear, and they can't protect themselves.

Jian Ruonan is afraid that the old lady will be scared to death. If

the old lady is scared to death, Jian Zhang will not only have to observe mourning, but may also be labeled as unfilial.

The most important point is that meat cannot be eaten during the mourning period, and she can't bear the hardship of being a vegetarian.

Jian Ruonan pinched her orchid finger, her face calm.

When I was obsessed with Naruto, I learned a few moves and made a few fancy seals, but I didn't expect to scare everyone.

[Why is no one begging for mercy for the old lady? ! ]

[Give me a step, so I can quit while I'm ahead. ]

[I'm hungry, I don't want to act anymore. Jian Zhang

: “…”

Jian Zhang was a man who could do great things. He immediately pulled Min and Jian Xilu down to their knees, “God, God, please forgive my mother. I, Jian Zhang, am willing to fast and chant Buddhist scriptures for a year in exchange for your forgiveness!!!” Jian Xilu

also said, “God, God, please forgive my grandmother. I beg you. I am willing to copy Buddhist scriptures to atone my grandmother’s sins!!”

Min also knelt down to beg for mercy, “God, I am willing to copy the Diamond Sutra a hundred times in exchange for my mother’s good health!”

My family is so kind!!! They even begged for mercy when the old lady bullied them. Woohoo!!! 】

Jian Ruonan turned over her orchid finger and made a straight posture, "Shi Yiqiao, for the sake of this group of filial sons and grandsons, I will spare you this time today." After

saying that, Jian Ruonan closed her eyes and fainted in Jian Zhang's arms accurately.

System: [......]

Jian Zhang held Jian Ruonan and shouted: "Quickly ask the doctor to come and see what happened to mother?!"

Only then did the little maid run out to ask for the doctor.

The upper room was in chaos. Immediately, a woman pinched the old lady's philtrum. After a while, the old lady finally woke up slightly.

The first thing the old lady did when she woke up was to check on Jian Ruonan. Seeing Jian Ruonan with her eyes closed and being held by Jian Zhang, she woke up with peace of mind.

~

Not long after the old lady woke up, Jian Ruonan also woke up.

She returned to her former cute and innocent fifth daughter of the Marquis's Mansion, tilting her head like a harmless little white rabbit: "Sister, what happened to grandma?"

Jian Xilu: "..."

Grandma was almost scared to death by you.

"Don't worry, sister, grandma was just frightened. Let's go back first and don't disturb grandma to rest."

"Ah, why was grandma frightened? Is it serious?" Jian Ruonan looked sad, "Your granddaughter is very worried." She

looked like a filial daughter who was going to take care of the old lady.

"..."

Min: "Nannan is really filial, let's go back first."

I'm afraid that if you stay here, the old lady will never get better.

The old lady dragged her sick body, "Nannan's filial piety is appreciated, you all go back."

After the doctor came, Jian Zhang took his wife and daughter back to Xixiayuan.

After such a commotion, no one had dinner yet. Jian Ruonan washed her face and hands, changed into clean clothes, and the maids immediately set the table.

Zangchun and Zangqiu, who had gone to Xishouyuan with her, were also frightened. Min asked them to go and rest, and ordered Zangdong and Zangxia to serve on the side.

The four maids with the character "Zang" were the senior maids by Min's side, and there were four maids with the character "Wen" who were second-class maids. There were also small maids in the yard who did rough work and were not allowed to enter the house.

According to the rules, Jian Ruonan was to be accompanied by two first-class maids and two second-class maids. Min was going to give Zangchun to her, but Jian Ruonan took the initiative to ask for Wenxue.

Wenxue was the old lady's eye in Xixiayuan.

It would not be good to pluck out the eyes without thinking, so Jian Ruonan asked her to stay by her side and watch her all the time to feel more at ease.

"Since Nannan likes Wen Xue, I will promote her to the first rank, and I will help you find a few maids." Min said.

Wen Xue was promoted to the first rank, and she was a little overjoyed. She knelt down and kowtowed to Jian Ruonan to thank her.

Jian Ruonan rewarded her with a silver coin and sent her away.

The food was already served, and the matter of plucking out the eyes would be discussed later. The world is big, but eating is the most important thing.

There were five dishes and a soup on the table, one was fried tender lamb liver with celery. The lamb liver was very tender and smooth, and paired with tender green celery, it was delicious.

A bowl of Polygonatum odoratum chicken feet soup, it was said to be good for beauty.

There was also a beancurd skin bun, which was made by wrapping various fillings in beancurd skin and steaming them. Jian Ruonan had seen this dish in a classic novel, and now that she had the chance to encounter it, she must taste it carefully.

In addition to the three hot dishes above, there were two cold dishes, a plate of braised pig's trotters, a plate of roasted venison, and a plate of stir-fried vegetables.

Min had someone put the plate of braised pig's trotters in front of Jian Ruonan, "Nannan, this is what you like to eat."

Jian Ruonan was stunned. When did she say that she liked to eat pig's trotters? But this pig's trotter looked very good, so she had to eat it reluctantly.

After such a commotion, the family of four were all hungry. Min and Jian Xilu held their bowls and ate in small bites. Even eating a meal was quite pleasing to the eye.

Jian Ruonan was young and ate a little too much.

The three women ate meat, but Jian Zhang was the only one who ate vegetables with his rice.

Jian Ruonan asked, "Dad, don't you eat meat?"

Jian Zhang put down his bowl and chopsticks and rubbed his temples. "Daddy is going to fast for a year to pray for grandma."

Seeing the table full of meat dishes, he felt a little regretful. Why didn't he choose to copy the sutras at that time? Why did he fast?

Eating vegetarian for a year is really a test of the mind.

Min looked at Jian Zhang sympathetically and quickly ordered the maid to bring a plate of snacks.

Jian Ruonan blinked. She didn't expect Daddy to be so honest and really wanted to fast.

But it's good this way. Daddy's reputation for filial piety will spread, and the old lady can no longer use filial piety to oppress Daddy.

Jian Zhang used a serving chopstick to pick up a few pieces of venison that was roasted to a crispy outside and tender inside, and put them into Jian Ruonan's bowl, "Daddy can't eat it, Nannan, eat more."

"Nannan, do you want to go to the government office with daddy tomorrow?" Jian Zhang really loves Jian Ruonan now. How could his little daughter be so smart? If it was a boy, Jian Zhang would have trained him as the successor.

How could such a precious daughter be replaced?

He has already sent someone to look for Zhou. Now that Zhou has been found, he will teach Zhou a lesson!

Jian Ruonan ate the meat in her mouth: "Can I play around in the Ministry of Justice?"

Jian Zhang: "Daddy will take you, you can go anywhere you want." It happened that the government office had a few difficult cases, and the superiors required that they must be closed in the next few days, but he had no idea at all.

Maybe if we take Nan Nan with us, the case will be solved.

Min and Jian Xilu were both stunned. Yuan Ge'er and Teng Ge'er were curious about the Ministry of Justice when they were young, but Jian Zhang never mentioned taking them to have a look. But now he took the initiative to take her there, which shows how much Jian Zhang values ​​Jian Ruonan.

Jian Ruonan was a little moved.

However, when she heard that her father had to get up at 3:00 pm to attend court, she could sleep a little longer, but she had to get up at 4:00 pm. Jian Ruonan immediately gave up the idea.

[Getting up at 4:00 pm, this is really his father? ! ]

[I can't stand the hardship of getting up early! ]

Jian Zhang: "..."

"How about you get up at 9:00 pm, and I'll send someone to pick you up then."

9:00 pm, Jian Ruonan reluctantly agreed.

Jian Xilu: “…”

They, the brothers and sisters, get up at 5:00 a.m. every day. Their sister is so lazy, but daddy doesn’t blame her and actually coaxes her? !

It’s really eye-opening!

Min smiled and said, “Xilu has to get up at 5:00 a.m. every day to practice the piano. The teacher is here, and Nannan has to get up early to study too.”

Jian Ruonan hurriedly said, “Daddy promised me to get up at 9:00 a.m.!”

[Daddy, please take care of your wife!! ]

Min: “…”

She is so smart, why is she so lazy?

Jian Xilu giggled on the side, her sister is really fun: “Sister is growing, let her sleep a little longer.”

[Sister is still good to me, sister is so sweet. ]

Min:? ?

Just let her sleep a little longer? She

compromised, "Okay, it's the same if you've slept enough and study."

Jian Xilu suddenly remembered that she hadn't finished eating half of the melon: "Daddy, the god just said, what happened between grandma and the groom?"

Although she looked at Jian Zhang, she was always paying attention to Jian Ruonan.

Jian Zhang and Min also pricked up their ears.

Jian Ruonan then remembered that the old lady fainted when she had only put half of the melon in.

[The old lady is quite a coward. She fainted at a really good time, otherwise the whole family would know about her affair with the groom. Her foot odor was also transmitted by the groom.]

[The old lady likes to lick the groom's big feet the most!]

Jian Zhang: ! !

Min: ! !

Jian Xilu: ! !
