Chapter 124
The two made lunch together.

After using it up, Qing Ning went to the backyard to fiddle with some scattered herbs, worrying secretly.

In order to save Jing Chi, the family had no money left, and almost all valuables were sold.

In the past, it was possible to collect some medicinal materials and prepare common patent medicines for sale.

Now is an extraordinary period, medicinal materials are in short supply, where else can they be picked?

So these days, she and Jingzhi's food and clothing expenses all depended on Lin Hongbi's support.

Jing Chi suffered a series of shocks, and was tortured when she first entered the prison.These days are even more nightmares every night, and I haven't slept well for many days.

I had a terrible headache during the day, so I took a nap after dinner.

He was sleeping in a daze, when the quilt was thrown off by someone!
She woke up in a daze, only to hear an old lady say loudly in a dissatisfied voice: "How late is this? Little girl, why are you so sleepy?"

Jingzhi is usually not a good temper, Fang was woken up after sleeping for a while, and got up very angry.

Immediately, he jumped up angrily with a "hoo" sound, and shouted, "Where did you come from beggars? Are you yelling here?"

"Ouch! Damn! Where did the old godly woman come from, why is she sleeping in my daughter-in-law's house?" The old lady also jumped and shouted.

The two immediately stopped, pointed their noses and toes, and quarreled in an incomprehensible and incomprehensible way.

"What's the matter?" Qing Ning rushed over after hearing the sound.

She looked at the old lady: the old lady had thick hands and feet, a ruddy complexion, and looked quite energetic.But she was wearing a lake green embroidered spring thin jacket and a dark red Hunan skirt, which was not something an old lady of her age could wear, and looked a bit nondescript.

The old lady is also looking at her.

He looked from head to toe, then turned to look behind him, and clicked his tongue twice: "Oh, she is a beautiful girl. It's just that her butt is not big."

Qing Ning blushed and was very sullen: "Old lady, did you go to the wrong door?"

The old lady's face darkened suddenly: "Why did you go to the wrong door? Aren't you going to belong to my family in the future? I'm Lin Hongbi's mother!"

Qing Ning opened his mouth with a look of disbelief.

Lin Hongbi, who is gentle, respectful and gentlemanly, has such a mother!

"Go get me a cup of tea. What kind of etiquette!" Mrs. Lin was annoyed.

Static holding is already unbearable, and I can't wait to find something to smash it over!
But how did he know that this old lady was actually Lin Hongbi's old mother?

Immediately, his attitude softened by three points, he opened his mouth, said "嗐嗐" twice, and stopped making trouble.

Her complexion changed several times, and finally changed into a happy one: "Oh, old sister! It's you! The old woman has bad eyesight, so I didn't recognize it!"

Mrs. Lin gave her a disdainful look, with her belly in her hands and her hands behind her back, she inspected the front yard, the middle yard, and the back yard one by one, her eyebrows furrowed like twists.

Qing Ning followed her with a strange expression, not knowing what the old lady was going to do.

"Such a big yard! I just fed a box of bees! Can that be eaten? Or can it be drunk?" Qing Ning was lowering her head when Granny Lin suddenly turned her head and stared at her, scaring her Big jump!

"Auntie, that's not a bee, it's a silver bee..." Qing Ning explained carefully.

"I don't care if it's a golden bee or a silver bee! Remember! If it's not suitable for eating or drinking, it's useless to raise it! Fifty hens are raised in the front! Dig a pond in the middle and raise some ducks and geese! It's easier to plant some Small dishes! You don’t have to go to the street to buy them! Save more money!”

"Aunt...junior...never raised these." Qing Ning said with a tearful face.

"What did your parents do in the past? They didn't teach you these things of life?" The old lady asked with her eyebrows crossed, very impatient.

Qing Ning's father used to be sentenced by the imperial hospital. Although her mother was insane, she was pampered.

But that is all in the past.

Now that the family is in decline, it is no longer what it used to be.

Qing Ning was reasonable after thinking about it, and quickly volunteered: "Your junior...you can learn."

Only then did Mrs. Lin nodded in satisfaction, and took a towel out of her arms to wipe off her sweat: "Let me take a look first! In the morning, you and I will go to the market to buy some chicken and duck seedlings! Plant them early and plant the rapeseeds as early as possible!”

Seeing Qingning's docile attitude, she was a little satisfied, and waved her callused big hand: "Live your life, you still have to learn from me! I have to go home and feed the pigs! Let's go!"

Although the old lady was vulgar and rude, she was Lin Hongbi's old lady.

Their masters and apprentices are now under the fence of others, but they dare not offend them.

Jing Zhi saw that she was about to leave without even drinking a cup of tea, so she poured a cup of tea and handed it over, smiling: "Oh, how can I just leave now? Let's talk about it, old sister!"

Mrs. Lin was pressed on the chair by her. She wanted to break free several times, but she had no choice but to hold on. Having been a witch for decades, she had already mastered the ability to talk nonsense. After listening to a few words, she was fascinated.

Jing Zhi praised Mrs. Lin from head to toe, in short, there was nothing that was not a sign of good fortune.

"Old sister, your nostrils look good. Round and round, both sides are the same size! This is very particular, and it is a sign of wealth. The one on the left is for wealth, the one on the right is for treasure, and the two sides are round and round. Big or small, this is attracting wealth and treasure, and the wealth is not leaking at all!"

Mrs. Lin touched her two nostrils, and said happily: "There is still this lecture."

Jingzhi held Old Mrs. Lin's hand again: "Old sister, listen to me, your little finger is very good. Look, there is a spiral pattern here, an ingot pattern here, and a little bulge in the middle. The double dragon protects Bead! This is the sign of great fortune and great nobility!"

Mrs. Lin opened her big dustpan-like hands and her eyes were bright: "Okay, okay, okay, I know my life is good!"

The two talked until the sun went down, and then Mrs. Lin remembered that there was still something going on at home, and jumped up quickly: "Oops! The pigs at home are starving! Come back tomorrow morning!"

After finishing speaking, he left in a hurry.

Qing Ning wiped the sweat from his forehead, and leaned against Jing Chi, feeling a little uneasy: "Senior brother Lin's mother...why is she acting weird? Also, why didn't she come on the day of the engagement?"

Lin Hongbi didn't mention much about his parents and family.

On the day of the engagement, he personally brought the matchmaker.

On the woman's side, there is only Jing Chi, and the man's family is a high-ranking female official in Prince Hui's mansion.

As for the Lin family, they never showed up from beginning to end.

Jing Zhi thought for a while, and said: "It's an old lady from a farm family. I think his family thinks that it would be better to let the female officer of Prince Hui's mansion come?"

Qing Ning asked in bewilderment: "Then why did she come again today? I don't know if Brother Lin knows?"

Still can't figure it out.

She slapped her head: "When the Lin family boy comes, can't you just ask him?"

Lin Hongbi always visits Qingning every other day.

Qingning nodded hesitantly: "He didn't come today, but he will definitely come tomorrow morning. Let me ask him."

However, on the second day, before Lin Hongbi came over, the old lady of the Lin family rushed over excitedly early in the morning and slammed the gate of the courtyard.
