Reborn in ancient times: I will make my family rich

On the way, the mother and daughter chatted enthusiastically about their future store.

A shop can solve many problems.

It saves a lot of trouble.

By the time the two of them got home, it was already completely dark.

Jiang Nan went back to the room and looked at his father, but he hadn't woken up yet.

"Girl, wash your hands and eat quickly. Your uncle will probably wake up tomorrow morning."

Qingying placed the prepared meal on the dining table and leaned over to shout towards Jiang's father's room.

"Come on, go eat and let him sleep! It's okay to skip a meal."

Mother Jiang said as she pushed Jiang Nan out of the room.

After dinner, Jiang Nan had nothing to do so he went to the bedroom and practiced calligraphy with his two children.

During this period, Jiang Bei studied with people in the Gu Mansion and learned quite a few words.

This child is extremely intelligent. In just a few days, he has almost memorized the Three Character Classic.

As for Jiang Shuang, although she is still a young girl, she would have to go to kindergarten and receive enlightenment in modern times.

From ancient times to the present, knowledge can change destiny, which is an eternal truth.

Jiang Nan planned to send Jiang Shuang to a girls' school when she grew up a little.

The three of them were writing seriously when the door of Jiang Nan's bedroom was suddenly pushed open.

The three people who were practicing calligraphy all raised their heads and looked towards the door.

Gu Yanzhou pushed the door open with a frown on his face, looking exhausted and met the sight of the three people.

"Why are you here at this time?" Jiang Nan asked puzzledly, putting down the brush in his hand.

"My grandmother is in trouble. Hurry up and take the medicine box with me to check it out."

"Okay," Jiang Nan didn't ask any more questions after hearing that. He immediately took the medicine box from the side and followed Gu Yanzhou out.

"Mom, I have to go out for something."

Halfway through the walk, Jiang Nan suddenly remembered something and shouted at Jiang's mother as he walked.

No matter whether Jiang's mother can hear it or not.

There was a chestnut horse tied at the door of Jiang Nan's house.

Jiang Nan knew the situation was urgent when he saw Gu Yanzhou's expression.

Without hesitation, he got on the horse with the help of Gu Yanzhou, who followed closely behind him.

"Gee," Gu Yanzhou held the reins and shouted, and the horse turned around and took the two of them away.

It was getting late now, and with the winter wind blowing hard, there were basically no people on the streets except for a few famous streets in Shangjing.

Because he was anxious, Gu Yanzhou rode the horse very fast.

"What's the matter? I saw the old lady was fine yesterday, how come she suddenly fell ill?" Jiang Nan asked with concern while nestling in Gu Yanzhou's arms.

"I don't know the details. It was Nanny Li who suddenly came to the General's Mansion and said that my grandmother was seriously ill and wanted to see me. She also asked me not to tell anyone."

"I just came back from the military camp on the outskirts of the city."

Gu Yanzhou sounded anxious.

"Ah."

Jiang Nan was somewhat suspicious that Madam Gu was very angry yesterday, and because of her old age, she was getting angry.

But this is all speculation.

Along the way, Gu Yanzhou deliberately chose shortcuts with fewer people, which shortened the journey by half.

The journey that was supposed to take an hour took only half an hour.

Jiang Nan, who had never ridden a horse, felt his buttocks were numb.

My legs felt a little weak when I got off the horse and walked.

Because Nanny Wang specifically instructed that the news of the old lady's serious illness had not yet spread, and also instructed that the old lady's condition must be kept secret and that she must meet Gu Yanzhou first.

So the two of them did not enter through the main gate of Pingyang Marquis' Mansion. They tied the horses in a secluded place, and Gu Yanzhou took Jiang Nan into Pingyang Marquis' Mansion through a small door that no one usually passed through.

Nanny Wang had already left the back door ajar to make it easy for Gu Yanzhou to enter.

Because the back door is remote and basically no one passes by here on weekdays, no one will notice it when it is opened.

After nightfall, the back door was shrouded in darkness.

In addition, the moonlight was dim today, making it extremely difficult for the two of them to walk in the huge and dark Pingyang Marquis Mansion.

Because through the small door, one needs to pass through the large garden of Pingyang Marquis' Mansion to reach the courtyard where the old lady is.

Gu Yanzhou held the medicine box in one hand and held Jiang Nan's hand with the other, crouching down, looking around vigilantly and walking carefully through the garden.

"Crack~" Jiang Nan, who was walking in the garden, suddenly stepped on a dead branch and broke it.

"Who is there?" As luck would have it, he happened to run into a servant on patrol at the Marquis of Pingyang's mansion.

"Boss, I seemed to have seen a dark shadow from somewhere just now," one of the servants said to the leader.

"Go and have a look."

The two looked at each other.

There are four people on patrol in total. Given Gu Yanzhou's skills, it will not be a problem to deal with them, and he will not be a burden.

But in the end, if someone is missing from the mansion, a thorough investigation will definitely be conducted.

The old lady doesn’t know what the situation is now, so there is no time to delay.

Suddenly Jiang Nan came up with a plan.

Although it is a bit embarrassing, we can only try our best to save the situation.

"Meow~meow~meow," Jiang Nan pinched his throat and imitated the cat's meow.

Gu Yanzhou looked at the person beside him who was trying hard to imitate a cat's meow and couldn't help but smile. He could even think of such a trick.

"It's the cat's meowing. Let's go look somewhere else."

"Look carefully next time, kid."

When the four saw that it was a cat's meow, they let down their guard and went somewhere else.

The two escaped the disaster and successfully reached the old lady's yard.

When I entered the yard, it was eerily quiet, giving me a dead feeling.

The excitement of yesterday has disappeared.

There was no one serving in the courtyard. Seeing this scene, Gu Yanzhou quickened his pace and ran straight to Madam Gu's bedroom.

In the bedroom, only Nanny Li was serving by the bed.

There was also a smell of Chinese medicine in the room.

"Young master, you are here. The old lady just fainted again," Nanny Wang quickly got up when she heard the noise, and when she saw Gu Yanzhou, she felt like she had found a backbone.

Gu Yanzhou quickly walked to the bedside and felt his chest stagnate when he saw the old lady with black eyes and pale face.

"Nannan, please come and see grandma." Seeing that the old lady was in a serious condition, Gu Yanzhou quickly stood up to make room for Jiang Nan.

To facilitate her treatment.

When Jiang Nan got closer, he saw that the old lady's lips were blue and she looked lifeless. The situation was serious and there was no time to delay, so he immediately pulled Madam Gu's arm to feel her pulse.

As time passed, Jiang Nan's face became uglier and uglier.

Judging from her pulse, the old lady has a number of chronic diseases. Although they are not serious, they are not serious enough to cause her to fall into a coma and suffer the current condition.

"When did the old lady start to be like this? What did she eat?"

"After you left yesterday, the old lady felt a little tired. She usually takes medicine. It seems that she started to feel this way this afternoon after taking the medicine at night."

"I usually take medicine, but this has never happened before."

"Judging from her pulse and the old lady's condition, she is poisoned," Jiang Nan said solemnly.

"I can't find out what kind of poison she has been poisoned with yet, but I can protect the old lady's heart meridian to prevent the poison from invading."

As he spoke, Jiang Nan began to take out silver needles from the medicine box and started to give acupuncture to the old lady.

"Who prepared the medicine for the old lady today?"

"It's Chun'er who made medicine for the old lady before."

"Madam Li, please go and see if there are any medicine residues left. Bring them to me." Jiang Nan, who was giving acupuncture at the side, spoke up.

Nanny Li has been with the old lady since she was a child, and has been with her for decades. She has never married, and the friendship between them has long gone beyond that of master and servant.

No matter how stupid she was, she knew that someone in this mansion wanted to harm the old lady.

Nanny Li wiped the tears from her face, and after listening to Jiang Nan's words, she quickly went to the small kitchen to look for the medicine residue.
