Si Jinxing took Pei Qingzhu downstairs and saw a circle of people watching the fun outside the door.
Because this shop has an excellent location, on Longxing Street, the most prosperous street in Jianzhou City, only those who can consume here are rich or noble!
But none of them was willing to spend some money to call a doctor for the fainted little girl.
Si Jinxing squatted beside the little girl and signaled the woman who was kowtowing to stop. Then he reached out to feel the girl's pulse and probed her forehead.
She withdrew her hand and said to the woman:
"It's nothing serious, just a cold and a fever. Follow my people to Jirentang on Dongping Street.
There are medicines and doctors there, as well as a place to rest temporarily, which can accommodate you and your daughter."
She turned to Pei Qingzhu and said:
"Brother Pei, please take them over and make arrangements with Shopkeeper Zhao about distributing porridge. This needs to be done as soon as possible."
When the woman heard this, she was surprised that this beautiful young lady not only wanted to treat her daughter's illness, but also wanted to provide her with porridge?
She immediately kowtowed on the bluestone steps and said:
"Thank you for your kindness, Miss!"
While Pei Qingzhu was arranging the carriage, Si Jinxing asked the woman to pick up the child and go into Yaxu Lao together.
She asked, "Are you from Tong County? Was there really a flood there?"
When the woman heard this, her face turned pale and she said:
"Miss, to be honest, there was indeed a flood in my hometown.
The child's father died on the way to Beijing, and now, my daughter has fainted in the street. If she leaves me too, I...
I was forced to kneel down in front of the young lady's shop and bother her."
After hearing this, Si Jinxing felt a little sympathetic and said:
"It's okay. Everyone has difficulties. Once you get through it, the sun will shine and everything will be fine!
But why did you travel such a long distance to Jianzhou?
The local officials actually ignored you?"
The woman wiped the tears from her face and shook her head:
“No, we have never opened the granaries to distribute grain, let alone set up porridge stalls.
He just told us to wait at home patiently, but he didn't say how long we had to wait!
The people don’t have any food left at home, if they wait any longer they will starve to death!”
Pei Qingzhu drove the carriage and took the mother and daughter away. Si Jinxing also got on the carriage and returned to the general's mansion.
At the same time, in the Rui Wang Mansion, Ju Ran Hall.
Qi Nanyue sat behind the desk and opened the anonymous secret letter in his hand. He looked at it in the dim candlelight, but there was not a single word on the white paper!
He moved the lampshade away, brought the paper closer to the candlelight, and several lines of words appeared one by one!
"Master, there are floods in Huaibei and Huainan, and the unruly people are entering the capital!"
He unfolded the folded banknote again, and it turned out to be a banknote of 500,000 taels from Hengtong Bank!
Qi Nanyue frowned slightly, and tapped the desk irregularly with his slender fingers. He watched the words on the white paper gradually disappear, then raised his hand and placed the white paper on the candle flame, lighting it and burning it to ashes.
He thought for a moment, stood up, and said out the window:
"Come here, go and invite the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue to come to the mansion."
At this time in Cuijing Pavilion, Si Jinyue heard what Mother Lin said, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, but a faint smile was still on her face. She said:
"Thank you, Mother Lin, for coming."
As she spoke, she asked Chunyu to put a small purse into Mother Lin's sleeve.
Then he asked Chunzhi to secretly send Mother Lin out of the house through the back door.
Si Jinyue seemed to have lost all her strength and slumped in the chair.
My mother was beaten with a stick and has not recovered yet. My third sister was disfigured and is now under house arrest!
how so?
Her eyes were dim, and scenes that had happened in recent days flashed through her mind.
In the end, all the problems were blamed on Si Jinxing.
If she hadn't come back, the general's mansion would definitely not be in its current state!
My father is the same. Is he possessed by an evil spirit?
Can't they see that the girl is an evil spirit that ruins the family and brings disaster to the house?
She tried hard to suppress her anger and conceal her thoughts. She called Chunyu and whispered a few words in her ear.
Chunyu was stunned for a moment, then ran out.
On a late autumn night, the wind rustles through the treetops, accentuating the stillness of the night.
Today is the wedding day of Ye Wan'er and Qi Nanche.
Something happened on the Mid-Autumn Festival. After Emperor Chongde discussed with the old tutor and Ye Changqing, he hurriedly issued an edict to grant the marriage!
They found the nearest auspicious day and set it as the wedding date.
Qi Nanche was a man of hot temper by nature. He hated being schemed against, and he disliked Ye Wan'er even more!
But he had no choice but to listen to his mother and brother's advice.
But no matter how obedient he was, he couldn't take Ye Wan'er seriously!
The previous betrothal gifts were all given to the Ye family by the housekeeper according to the most common standards, but he didn't put any effort into it.
Women are just playthings!
If you meet someone you like, go to her room more often.
If you find one you don't like, just keep it at home.
Anyway, she has enough food to eat at home!
In the bridal chamber where red candles flickered, the bridesmaid sprinkled the embroidered quilt with red dates, peanuts, longans and lotus seeds, implying that the newlyweds would have a baby soon.
The two red candles on the candlestick burned slowly. As the candlelight flickered, Ye Wan'er raised her hand to wipe away the tears from her face.
She is unwilling to accept it!
That night, she clearly saw Si Jinxing enter the palace. Who secretly replaced her?
Could it be...that bitch Si Jinyun?
But what good will it do her if she does this?
She had a big red veil on her head and sat upright on the edge of the bed, thinking about her current situation, but she was not worried at all. She didn't want to live in the first place!
She wasted her time for him until she was eighteen and never got married.
But now she has lost her virginity so easily. To her, what difference does it make who she marries?
After all, it is the prince's wedding, so there will naturally be more than a dozen tables of buffet banquets set up outside the door!
For those guests of low status, after sending wedding gifts, they will have a banquet outside the mansion.
Qi Nanche was dissatisfied with this marriage. At the banquet, he drank one cup after another without waiting for any guests to toast him.
Just when he was drunk, he suddenly heard the servants and the steward report that the buffet outside was eaten up by a group of beggars!
He suddenly burst into anger:
"Are these unruly people worthy of eating at Grandpa's banquet? Bring me my sword!"
When the housekeeper saw his prince with a red face, he knew that he was drunk and tried to stop him, but was kicked to the ground by Qi Nanche!
Qi Nanche also staggered a bit and shouted incoherently:
"How dare you disobey me?! Go, get your sword!
Since those unruly people have eaten my food, let me give them a ride!"
