Chapter 280 Love the House and the Dog, Who Are You?
The love from his own daughter was so heavy that it made Ji Qingwu's breathing difficult.
Ji Qingwu held Jiujiu's little butt and hugged the little girl tightly, and his heart finally settled down.
Jiujiu's little face was pressed against her neck.
Asked: "Mother, are we going to live here from now on?"
Ji Qingwu sensed her dependence and said to the two servants, "You go down first."
Then she said softly, "Don't you like it here?"
The little girl looked at the unfamiliar room and didn't say she didn't like it. Instead, she said, "I miss my grandmother and Nanny Li a little bit. Can they move in and live with us?"
Ji Qingwu thought for a moment and said, "Mother will take Jiujiu home to visit her grandmother tomorrow. Jiujiu can ask them in person then."
The third day after marriage, which is tomorrow, is the time to return to the parents’ home.
Wei Ting went to the northern border overnight. When Qiao heard the news, she must have been worried about her situation in the Wei family. If she could hear Chichi's childish words, she might be more cheerful.
Jiujiu raised her face from her arms and asked seriously, "Mother, will Jiujiu get married in the future?"
Ji Qingwu didn't expect Jiujiu to ask such a question.
Such an innocent and lovely little girl, who knows what she will face when she grows up.
Ji Qingwu replied sternly: "If you want to get married, then get married. If you don't want to get married, then don't get married. Don't worry about what others say."
Jiujiu immediately shook his little head like a rattle and pouted his little mouth.
"I want to get married!"
Ji Qingwu tapped the tip of the little girl's nose and asked, "Who are you going to marry?"
Jiujiu said proudly, "I'll live in whoever's big house I like. If I find a house I like better, I'll move to another place."
Ji Qingwu laughed and shook his head, then asked, "Are you going to marry into the family whose house is more luxurious?"
Jiujiu said, "Mother, this is called loving the house and the crows on the roof. It means that if I like his house, I will also like the crows on his roof."
First she fell in love with the house, and then she fell in love with the person. The girl's logic is reversed.
Ji Qingwu corrected him: "When you get married, what's important is not the house, but the person who lives under the same roof with you."
Jiujiu looked around the room and saw no one else.
The little girl asked, "Why wasn't the man my mother married yesterday in the house? Did my mother find that she didn't like him after she got married, so she drove him out?"
Ji Qingwu was stumped by the little girl's question. The relationship between her and Wei Ting was different from that of an ordinary couple, and she was hesitating about how to answer her.
Jiujiu suddenly moved close to her chin, and her big blinking eyes seemed to have discovered something.
"Mother, your room is not good, there are mosquitoes."
The little finger pointed at the red mark on her neck: "Bad mosquito!"
Before, Lanzhi and Xuemei felt guilty and did not dare to look at Ji Qingwu carefully.
Ji Qingwu didn't pay attention to the kiss marks on the side of her ear when she was dressing up. She just changed into a high-necked dress, thinking that she could cover the kiss marks on her chest and neck.
Jiujiu shook her little head left and right and looked at the corners of her chapped lips.
"Mother, were your lips bitten too?"
Ji Qingwu was a thin-skinned person. When he thought about what happened last night, he felt guilty and his face turned hot.
She turned away and raised her voice to the outside: "Is breakfast not ready yet?"
Xuemei came in from outside, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. Ji Qingwu asked, "What happened?"
Xuemei said, "There is no separate kitchenette in the general's yard. The breakfast has already been placed at the old lady's place."
If Ji Qingwu had never dealt with Madam Wei, as a new bride, she might have tried to gain a reputation for being virtuous in front of her elders on her first day.
But now, Ji Qingwu no longer had a good impression in the eyes of the Wei family, and there was no need for her to make herself unhappy just for a meal.
Especially now that Jiujiu is by my side, I can’t let the little girl down.
"Jiujiu, mother will take you out to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks."
The second day of marriage.
Ji Qingwu took the little girl to sweep the Lin'an morning market street. After eating their fill, the two of them, big and small, went to the clinic.
Before I reached the entrance of the clinic, I saw from a distance a group of people surrounding the entrance.
Ji Qingwu walked closer and heard clear sounds of quarreling.
The one in the front was a middle-aged man in elegant attire. It was obvious that he came from a wealthy family, and he was surrounded by many servants.
The man shouted, "This clinic is doing a lot of harm! My wife got a prescription for pregnancy-preserving medicine here, but she only took it for a few days."
"Last night, my wife complained of abdominal pain and had spotting in the middle of the night. I came here to seek justice for my wife and the child who didn't even have a chance to come into this world!"
The middle-aged man was named Song Wei, also an official in the court.
The onlookers had already started pointing and talking, sympathizing with Song Wei's words.
Shopkeeper Mi remained calm: "Please provide real evidence, don't just say it's the clinic's fault."
"You want evidence? Fine!"
As soon as Song Wei raised his hand, a thin old man with a goatee stood up beside him.
"I work for Huang Zhitang of Qingchuntang. I have seen the prescriptions and drug residues they wrote, and I can testify that there is something wrong with the medicine Madam Song used."
He stroked his sparse beard and trembled his eyebrows as he said, "There was no red hemp leaf in the prescription, but the residue of the medicine was found in the liquid residue. The red hemp leaf and the ramie root in the prescription have mutually restraining properties. This is the real reason why Madam Song's fetus was not saved."
The old doctor from Qingchuntang came out to testify, but after all, different professions are like different worlds, so Manager Mi and Mo Lingling did not dare to assert that there was no problem with the prescription.
However, Mo Lingling passed all the prescriptions written by the clinic to Ji Qingwu for review.
Mo Lingling walked up to the old doctor and looked him over.
He said in a high voice: "After our clinic opened, most of the noble ladies in Lin'an were willing to come to us for treatment. The number of patients going to your Qingchun Hall has decreased significantly. Who knows if Qingchun Hall deliberately sent you to slander us."
Doctor Huang blew his beard and glared: "Master Song, look! They are still making excuses. Why don't we go to Jingzhao Prefecture? I am willing to testify at the government office."
Mo Lingling recognized Song Wei. She had also seen this man in Liangxiang Pavilion and knew that he had a special identity.
If they really go to court, they may not get the upper hand.
Just when the stalemate was about to break out, a clear and melodious female voice came from behind the crowd.
"If you ask me, how can going to Jingzhao Prefecture be enough? It is not enough to appease the grief of Mr. and Madam Song for losing their son."
Song Wei turned around. He didn't recognize Ji Qingwu, but seeing that the woman was quite charming, he nodded and said, "This clinic is wasting human lives. The clinic was opened by someone from the Ji family. Logically, I should discuss this matter in the court, but asking the Jingzhao prefect to judge the case is already giving them a bargain."
Ji Qingwu walked through the crowd and came to the door of the clinic.
Seeing Mo Lingling looking at her in surprise and excitement, she raised her eyebrows and indicated that she was here.
Ji Qingwu turned around and looked at Song Wei, and suggested in a friendly manner: "Your Excellency should file a complaint with the Emperor."
Song Wei saw that she looked young and had a child by her side.
He sneered and said, "You girl, everyone knows that the current emperor is seriously injured. How can I go to the emperor to complain?"
Ji Qingwu said, "Your Excellency doesn't even recognize me, how can you bring your case before the Emperor?"
Song Wei glared and asked, "Who are you?"
