When Si Jinxing came out of the consultation, he saw a man walking slowly towards him, supported by maids on both sides.
The person who came was none other than the pregnant Princess Rui, Si Jinyue.
Si Jinxing paused, looked at her carefully, and waited until she came closer before saying:
"Big sister, how are you?
It looks like it’s almost time to show my pregnancy!”
When Si Jinyue asked the imperial physician, she didn't know that Si Jinhao's injuries were so serious.
Today, when Doctor Du went to the palace to check her pulse, he learned that Si Jinhao's legs might make it difficult for her to stand up again!
She knew that if there was one person in this world who could save Si Jinhao, it would be Si Jinxing, whom they had always hated!
However, Si Jinyue never expected that Si Junhong could actually invite people!
At this moment, she saw Si Jinxing greeting her, and a kind smile appeared on her face again, and she said:
"Second sister, long time no see.
This child is all thanks to you. I was able to get pregnant because of the medicine you prescribed!
When he is born, I will make sure he remembers his sister's kindness!"
Si Jinxing stared at her belly and thought of the secret letter she had received before...
If it is true as Zheng Ranran said, the child here is not Qi Nanyan's...
Well, this Si Jinyue really slapped the faces of the Three Wise Kings!
Seeing Si Jinxing staring at her belly, Si Jinyue subconsciously reached out to cover it with her wide sleeves.
She pulled the corners of her lips and said:
"I am so grateful that my younger sister can come to see my older brother!
It's cold, sister, go back and rest early. I'll go in and see big brother."
Si Jinxing nodded, said nothing more, and walked out.
Si Jinyue took two steps forward, then paused and looked back at the man's departing figure, saying:
"Let's put that matter aside for now and do it after she heals the eldest young master's injury."
Chunyu, who was beside her, nodded in agreement.
Because of Si Jinxing's guarantee, Si Jinhao would be able to stand up on the wedding day.
Si Junhong was still a little worried, but when he heard that the two sisters Si Jinyue and Si Jinyun both recognized the second girl's medical skills, he felt relieved.
In the next few days, the Si family was busy preparing for the wedding.
Si Junhong and the old lady were both happy to see this marriage!
The granddaughter became the granddaughter-in-law, and the grandson became the grandson-in-law!
This is a great joyous event that further strengthens the relationship between relatives!
Until the day before the wedding, the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, the commotion in the mansion finally stopped.
Because this day is a day of sacrifice.
Si Jinxing learned from the original owner's memory that Laba at that time was not as simple as drinking a bowl of Laba porridge and pickling a bottle of Laba garlic in later generations.
In Longyin, there are four sacrifices in a year, in the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter respectively, but the winter sacrifice is the most important!
The winter festival is on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month!
A banquet was held in the palace, where the emperor and his officials congratulated each other and prayed for good weather in the coming year.
Ordinary people would also raise their glasses to toast and pray for peace and happiness.
After breakfast, Si Jinxing went straight to the Lan Mansion.
A few days ago, the county lady's mansion was surrounded by the people, which made the old lady of the Lan family and her three aunts very anxious.
The old lady even went to the palace to seek justice from the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager has always liked that quirky girl, so naturally she doesn't believe those rumors that are spread outside!
What kind of witch is this?
How could a witch be almost killed in the bushes beside the official road?
The Empress Dowager remembers it clearly, three months ago.
On the fifteenth day of August, the seventh brother Qi Nancheng and the eighth princess Qi Nanling rescued the unconscious girl!
That day, after the old lady of the Lan Mansion left the palace, she sent someone to invite Emperor Chongde to come.
Normally, she was too lazy to ask about the affairs of the court, but this matter alone made her feel upset!
Fortunately, when Emperor Chongde saw that she was ready to call an army to task, he quickly laid out his plans and told her about them quietly.
The Empress Dowager finally breathed a sigh of relief and immediately sent someone to summon Madam Lan into the palace.
As soon as Si Jinxing got off the carriage, she saw her grandmother and three aunts standing outside the mansion, waiting for her.
Her eyes suddenly turned red. A few days ago, she was busy teaching Gu Keying and Song Xiner, and treating Si Jinhao's injuries.
He only sent a letter to the Lan Mansion and did not come in person.
Now when they saw each other, their faces were full of worry.
Si Jinxing felt a pang of pain in her heart. She stepped forward and knelt before the four people, then she took Old Lady Lan's arm and whispered,
"Xing'er was wrong. I'm sorry for making Grandma worried."
Seeing this, Old Lady Lan smiled and said:
"Girl, what's wrong with you?
Isn't it reasonable for us to worry about you when something so serious has happened?"
Han quickly replied, "Xing'er has grown up and knows how to care for us!"
Shen said, "It's cold outside. If you want to talk, go inside."
Before lunch, Old Lady Lan took the three ladies and Si Jinxing to the ancestral hall.
This was Si Jinxing’s first time here, at least in the original owner’s memory, she had never been here before.
They poured wine, offered food, read sacrificial texts, and burned incense. Then, Si Jinxing followed the others in kowtowing and kneeling.
She heard Mrs. Lan muttering:
“I pray for the blessings of all the gods, may the dragon roar bring favorable weather, peace and prosperity to the country, abundant harvests, and no more wars.
I pray that the ancestors will protect the Lan family and bring peace and prosperity to our descendants, and that my granddaughter Si Jinxing will be safe and sound!"
Si Jinxing didn't believe these things at first, always thinking that they were just a kind of reliance for people.
But now, she is a living person who has traveled here. How can she say with certainty that she does not believe in those stories about ghosts and gods?
