After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

Xue Duan said with a smile: "Well, don't worry about it."

He had previously learned from the channels of the Ministry of Internal Affairs that the current Jia family was supported by Jia Jing from the Ningguo Mansion.And the relationship between Jia Jing and the old lady of Rongguo Mansion is not very good.

A few days ago, he paid a special visit to the two masters of the Marquis Bowling's Mansion, for what reason?

Isn't it just to test their attitude towards Rongguo Mansion?

Although the old Lord Hou of Bowling Hou's Mansion has gone, the power of Hou Mansion is doomed to decline.But the filial piety period of the Hou Mansion has not yet passed, and no one is sure about the future.

Most importantly, Xue Duan believed in his own vision.It's hard to say what happened to Shi Ding, but Shi Nai would never lose sight of everyone.

It was also because of this that he was jealous of the Bowling Marquis's Mansion, so he wanted to know what they thought of the Jia family and the old lady of the Jia family.

But obviously, the old lady did not leave a good impression on the two nephews.

Not close to the Ningguo Mansion, and the future head of the Shihou Mansion is not to be seen. Today's Rongguo Mansion, except for the remaining forces in the army, is a paper tiger.

And the power in the army cannot reach the south of the Yangtze River.

Xue Wang didn't understand these things, but she believed in her husband, and she was relieved to hear Xue Duan said that it was okay: "As long as the master knows it well."

At this time, the eldest maid, Gezi, came in and reported with a smile: "Master, madam, the eldest girl is awake and is clamoring for her parents."

"Hurry up, hug me in." Xue Duan burst into laughter immediately.

His daughter, Yuxue, was born cute and intelligent since she was a child. Now she is only three years old, and she already knows thousands of characters.

The eldest girl, Baochai, is still young, and now lives in the west wing of the main house.A message was passed from here, and the nanny over there wrapped up the girl soon after she got the news, and carried her over.

"Come on, let me give you a hug." Xue Duan stepped forward to pick it up, looked at her daughter's cheeks flushed from sleep, and kissed her involuntarily.

"Huh?" Xue Duan's expression changed, "Why is it so hot?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Wang rushed over and asked "what's the matter" while reaching out to touch her daughter's forehead.

This look doesn't matter, Baochai's forehead is hot as well as her cheeks.

Xue Wang became anxious, turned around and asked the nanny: "How do you take care of the elder sister? Does the girl not know if she has a fever?"

The nurse was already trembling with fright, and after being scolded by her like this, her legs softened, she knelt down with a "plop", and stammered, "Master, Mrs... Mrs, it was fine before... before... of it."

Xue Duan said angrily: "How dare you argue! It seems that the wife is too kind to you on weekdays! Someone, take her down."

"Master, please forgive me, please forgive me!" The nanny hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy. Seeing that Xue Duan was unmoved, she went to beg Xue Wang again, "Ma'am, ma'am, for the sake of my dedication to my sister, please forgive me. Just once. Ma'am..."

Xue Wang was so anxious that she cried, how could she care about the nanny?

The nanny was quickly taken down, and Liu Er's family also sent their own son to ask for a doctor.The entire Xue family was in chaos for a while.

Originally they thought that children just had a fever, and as long as they found a good doctor, they would be fine soon.

However, Xue's family invited several famous doctors in Jinling City, and Baochai's fever did not go away.And, slowly, he began to vomit and have diarrhea.

Those doctors came one after another, but none of them could see the specific root cause of the disease.In the end, it was a partner of the Xue family who recommended a doctor in Hangzhou who specialized in pediatrics, and only then did he see the affected area.

"Little girl, this is not a fever, but a heat poison from the womb. You treat it as a fever, of course it won't work."

When Xue Wang heard it, she burst into tears with a "wow": "Those quack doctors! My poor daughter!"

Xue Duan was still stable, and asked hurriedly: "Okay, old man, how should I treat it?" "

The old doctor sighed in embarrassment: "If this hot poison was discovered early in the morning, the old man would be somewhat sure. However, it is hidden in the body and cannot be induced, and it has only exploded now, and the old man is helpless."

These words were unclear, Xue Wang couldn't take it anymore, his body went limp, and he passed out.

"Hey, ma'am!" Liu Er's family hurriedly supported her, "Doctor, come and see my wife."

The old doctor stepped forward to feel the pulse, and said to Xue Duan: "My Madam is fine, but I have been tired for many days and my mind is damaged. I will be fine after a few days after the old man prescribes two pastes of medicine. But, don't bother your mind any more. gone."

"Yes, yes, yes." Xue Duan responded hastily, and asked the leaders of Liu Er's family to carry Xue Wang back to the main courtyard.

After sending off Mrs. Xue, Xue Duan solemnly bowed to the old doctor: "Old man, our husband and wife have been married for many years, and we only have this son and one daughter. If there is something wrong with the little girl, it will cost our husband and wife half their lives. Please, old man, show mercy and save the little girl."

The doctor's parents feel that such a little sister-in-law's family, even the old doctor can't bear it.

only……

"The old man's medical skills are limited, so he can only do his best. Mr. Xue should find another famous doctor."

Seeing that he was willing to treat him, Xue Duan was overjoyed: "Thank you, old man, thank you, old man." Then, he assured, "Just let the old man do what he wants. If the little girl is serious... really fate..."

Speaking of this, Xue Duan's eyes became hot, and his voice choked up: "...that is also her fate. Our Xue family will never make things difficult for the old man."

This kind of fatherly heart made the old doctor feel deeply.

"The girl is small, and she took too much medicine a while ago, which has spoiled her appetite. What I mean is to use acupuncture and medicated baths to dissipate the heat and poison in the body as much as possible. At least, it will make the child feel better." The old doctor proposed his treatment plan.

After hearing this, Xue Duan felt that it was feasible, and hurriedly said: "Okay, I will follow the old man's order."

******

No one would have guessed that it was just a little girl who was ill, and in the end it caused a commotion that was known all over the city, even Shi Nai and Shi Ding, who stayed at home and kept their filial piety behind closed doors, heard about it.

"Second brother, should we send someone to visit him?"

It stands to reason that they should go there in person.But both of them have filial piety, and if there is a sick person in their family, I'm afraid they will be even more taboo in their hearts.

"It should be." Shi Nai thought for a while and said, "When we came to Jinling, we didn't bring any precious medicinal materials. Why don't we ask the people below to make some children's toys."

Most importantly, save money.

Shi Ding never cared about his internal affairs, so naturally he did whatever his brother said.

So, Shi Nai drew the drawings himself based on the dolls, Rubik's Cube, etc. he saw from the common sense given by the system, and asked the servants at home to make them overnight.

"Second brother, what is this?" Shi Ding came to look for Shi Nai early in the morning, and Shi Nai Zheng told the housekeeper lady sent to Xue's house, what should I say? Next to the housekeeper lady, there was an unclosed box .Inside the box are a few dolls that were rushed out overnight.

Shi Ding saw at a glance the squint-eyed doll on the top, which looked like a rabbit but had a human body.

Shi Nai glanced at it, and said casually, "Oh, that's a rascal rabbit."

"A rascal rabbit?" Shi Ding took a closer look, "From this point of view, this rabbit is quite obscene. Is this going to be given to the eldest daughter of the Xue family?"

"En." Shi Nai responded, and asked the housekeeper, "I told you, do you remember clearly?"

This housekeeper's wife is the daughter-in-law of the second housekeeper of the Hou Mansion.The husband and wife came to Jinling with the two masters, and they had already made up their minds to perform well and try to overwhelm the butler.

Therefore, it is natural for the housekeeper's wife to be extremely attentive when she gets an errand: "Don't worry, the second master, I will definitely handle it well."

"Okay, you go." Shi Nai said, grabbed Shi Ding and hugged the bastard rabbit who refused to let go, and put it back into the box.

"Hey, second brother." Shi Ding has quick eyesight and quick hands, and hastily snatched it back, "Ceng Ceng Ceng" retreated several steps in a row, feeling that he had retreated to a safe distance, then hugged the doll in his hand tightly, and talked with his family. My brother bargained, "There are still so many in the box, isn't this one missing?"

Shi Nai was stunned.

"Third, you even snatch children's toys?"

Why didn't he realize that this younger brother was so naive before?

Old Shi Ding blushed, and forcibly held back his respect: "I...I don't want to leave it to the second girl of our family!"

Shi Nai rolled his eyes, snatched it away, handed it to the housekeeper's wife, motioned her to go quickly, and said to Shi Ding, "Second Miss, you don't have to worry about it, you can make it today."

After listening to it, Shi Ding was relieved.

Shi Ding has a little secret that no one knows.

He likes rabbits.

From childhood to adulthood, he never shot a rabbit to death, no matter whether he was hunting with the children of the aristocratic family or following the emperor to the paddock to hunt.

It's just that no one has ever paid special attention to what prey he hunted, which is why he has not been discovered.

He himself also felt that it was too cheap for him, a tall and thick man, to like fluffy and weak things like rabbits.Therefore, I have been holding back and not raising it.

Seeing this wretched and inexplicably ugly and cute rabbit today, he suddenly felt like a rabbit slave, which almost gave him away.

Fortunately, fortunately, the second brother didn't find out.Otherwise, I will die laughing.

And the luck of the third master only lasted for a day.Early the next morning, when his second brother stuffed a hooligan rabbit that was as tall as him into his arms, he subconsciously hugged and rubbed it.

Then, the whole person froze.

"Second...Second brother, what do you mean you don't need it?"

Facing his second brother's half-smiley face, Shi Ding thought, this expression that used to make people feel full of wisdom, looking at it today, why is it so unworthy of a beating?

Shi Nai smiled but said, "It's nothing, just to make sure that the third brother really likes rabbits."

Shi Ding was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and his hair exploded: "Nonsense, why do I like rabbits?"

"Oh, I don't like it." Shi Nai looked regretful, and stretched out his hand to pull the bastard rabbit over, "Then I'll take it back to the person I like."

"Wait a minute." Shi Ding raised his voice sharply, swallowed, and said through gritted teeth, "I like it, okay? Give it to me." He stretched out his hand and pulled it back.

——You cunning Shi Lao Er, you even cheated on your own brother!

Shi Nai, who was about to turn around, suddenly stopped, and said to his younger brother with an extremely gentle smile: "If you dare to call me Shi Laoer in your heart, do you believe that I will burn your rabbit to stew rabbit meat?"

Shi Ding: "..."

——Holy shit, his second brother has become a genius?

No, that's not the point.

"Second brother, rabbits are so cute, how can you eat them?"
