Nangong Yue threw the purse on the bookcase and said with a smile, "Everyone who sees it has a share, you can buy some snacks."
Thrush thanked me jokingly: "Then the slaves and maids will take advantage of the concubine Shizi and Sister Baihui."
As she spoke, she opened her purse, weighed the pieces of silver, and said with a smile, "Princess Shizi, Sister Baihui, that Boss Jin is quite generous. That's at least two taels of silver, right?" It's ordinary enough. of people have eaten it for a year.
Que'er smiled and said, "Our elder sister Baihui is the first person next to Concubine Shizi, so what is two taels of silver!" Thrush and Ying'er both laughed.
The maids giggled and made a mess.
Thrush went out and bought some snacks in high spirits. All the maids in the yard had a share. Nangong Yue also rewarded a few boxes of snacks. It was as lively as a festival.
Baihui has always acted properly, but only two days later, she brought some news about Qianjintang.
The owner of Qianjintang, surnamed Jin, opened this pharmacy in Luoyue City five years ago.
Because he has a skilled pharmacist and an old doctor with superb medical skills, he quickly established a firm foothold in Luoyue City. Boss Jin is charitable. He gives medical treatment and medicine every year, and has also helped many elderly and children. He has a good reputation. Neighbors who mention Qianjintang are full of praise.
"That means that Boss Jin is a good person?" Nangong Yue asked.
"Yes. Concubine Shi." Baihui replied, and said again, "What do you think is wrong?"
"For the time being, it doesn't seem to be abnormal." Nangong Yue said thoughtfully, "It's just that the pharmaceutical matter is very important, not to mention..." She lowered her eyes slightly, changed the subject, and said, "Baihui, you can come back tomorrow. Qianjintang, give me a word and go out..."
Baihui memorized it carefully.
The three-day deadline passed in a hurry. Because of the urgent order, Lijia Pharmacy, Huichuntang and Dejitang did not dare to neglect, they worked day and night, and finally each made more than 3,000 pills. After Baihui brought the pills back, Nangong Yue carefully checked them all, and asked Zhu Xing and Zhou Dacheng to take them to the camp in Luoyue City and hand them over to Tian He. As before, they would be sent to the front in Tian He's name.
After instructing the three pharmacies to continue making the rest of the pills, Nangong Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then it was time to make an appointment with Xiao Fei to go to Shantang.
"This lady, girl, please come in."
The person who manages the shantang is an old nanny who is in her fifties, surnamed Fu. She wears a half-old sauce-purple robe, her gray hair is neatly combed into a bun, and she has a round face and smiles. It's kind.
Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei entered the shantang with this Fu mama.
This shantang is a two-entry yard. The place is quite large, but the location is a bit remote. After the old town Nan Wang drove the Nan barbarians out of the country, he built this sanctuary to house some orphans without parents or relatives.
These orphans will learn some skills to make a living in the shantang. When they are fifteen years old, they need to leave the shantang to make a living on their own. Of course, some orphans simply stay in the shantang to do chores.
Over the past few decades, the number of orphans in shantangs has dropped by half compared to that time. Most of the orphans in shantangs now are abandoned baby girls and some disabled children.
At that time, people were more sons than daughters. Even if rich and noble families had more daughters, it was just a matter of raising a few more people in the family. It was not bad for that, but ordinary people were barely able to feed themselves. Therefore, people often drowned and abandoned baby girls. Since the establishment of Shantang, people have thrown baby girls at the door from time to time, but these baby girls have saved their lives...
Shantang's side mainly relies on the money allocated by Luoyue Chengfu to support it for so many years. On weekdays, some wealthy people will donate some property, clothing, food and so on from time to time.
Auntie Fu has been in charge of the shantang for many years, and she is very accustomed to receiving ladies and girls from various provinces. While taking Nangong Yue and the two to see the environment of the shantang, she talked about the situation of these children and answered from time to time. Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei's questions.
The empty yard looks a bit old and desolate because it has not been properly repaired for many years. The sound of children reading books can be heard from the front, which adds a bit of vitality to the originally quiet shantang.
"Mrs. Xiao, Miss Xiao, the children will read books for an hour every morning and afternoon. Girls will learn some women's red and cooking in the afternoon, and boys will learn some woodworking and arithmetic, which can be regarded as giving them skills in the future." Fu Ma The mother led the two to the school.
Xiao Fei said in agreement: "It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish."
Mammy Fu smiled: "That's what the old prince said when he built a shantang. He said that every child should at least learn the "Three Character Classic", and if nothing else, he could always write a letter to his family. The characters are ugly. It doesn't matter, as long as others recognize it..."
Of course, Xiao Fei is not the first time to mention his deceased grandfather from others' mouths, but the respect in Mammy Fu's words comes from the heart, which is particularly touching.
The academy was transformed from a hall, with fans open on all sides, and the inside was clear at a glance. The children shook their heads one by one and read: "...One and ten, ten and one hundred. Hundred and thousand, thousands and ten thousand. Three talents, heaven and earth People. Three Lights, Sun, Moon and Star..."
Judging from the way they are focused, it seems that they are no different from ordinary children.
Xiao Fei stared at them for a while, then turned to face the mammy and said, "Mammy Fu, my sister-in-law and I specially brought some books, ink, paper and inkstone today, and we want to donate them to Shantang..."
When Fu Fu heard the words, she was overjoyed.
Books are very expensive. A place like Shantang can barely manage the food and clothing of children, but books and ink, paper and inkstones are relatively luxurious items. They can only rely on occasional charity from benevolent people. On weekdays, children are mostly Use twigs to draw on the sand, or use charcoal as a pen to write on wood chips...
"Thank you Miss Xiao." Mammy Fu thanked Xiao Fei repeatedly, and seeing her sincere expression, it was obvious that she really cared about the children here.
"Mammy Fu, is there a study here? Can you show me there?" Xiao Fei said again, thinking to herself, it's best to see what the study here is lacking, and then consider whether she can do her best to let the child The environment in which we read has become better.
Mammy Fu was naturally in a hurry to respond, and bowed to make a petition: "Miss Xiao, Mrs. Xiao, please come this way..."
Under the leadership of Mammy Fu, the group continued to walk forward, and they heard a commotion from a side hall in front. Looking at the sound, through the open sash, you could see that there were many people inside. There are several children, most of whom are no more than three or four years old.
Mammy Fu hurriedly explained: "Boss Jin of Qianjintang in the city specially brought a doctor to give free medical treatment to the children." After speaking, Mama Fu stopped by a window in the side hall and watched with a smile as the hall continued. Said, "Boss Jin and the others came early in the morning and have been busy all morning. He also said that he will come to help the child see a doctor and give medicine every month. He is really a kind person."
Qianjintang? Nangong Yue looked in that direction.
In the side hall, an old woman with gray beard was examining the pulse of a boy of about three years old. The boy was held in his arms by a woman who described him as a little uneasy, and the woman comforted him softly.
The other children lined up in a crooked line next to them. A middle-aged man in a brocade robe was handing out sesame candies to the children. The sweet sesame candies made the children smile and have bright black eyes. Laughed into a crescent moon.
The children's laughter has an infectious power, and the corners of their mouths are also slightly hooked when they see Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei.
Baihui walked to Nangong Yue's side and whispered something in her ear.
This person is the gold boss of the Qianjintang!
Nangong Yue nodded her head calmly, her eyes fixed on the children in the side hall, and she heard Mammy Fu say with emotion: "...I heard that Qianjintang used to help those poor people reduce or exempt their medicine fees. , giving doctors and medicines, and having more pharmacists like Boss Jin is also a blessing for our people."
Before she could finish her sentence, there was a sudden sound of messy footsteps in front of her, and a woman in green clothes hurried over and shouted out of breath, "Mommy, can Shantang accept children? There is a child. injured!"
Behind the old woman, a middle-aged man wearing a rough cloth bunt hugged a little girl of five or six years old. The little girl had yellow and thin hair, ragged clothes, and a small face, hands and feet were gray and dirty. She looks like a little beggar, her hands and legs are twisting at a weird angle.
Nangong Yue's brows knitted together, and at a glance, she could see that the bones of the child's hands and feet were broken. What happened to cause such an injury? Her eyes continued to move upwards and landed on the little girl's dirty cheeks. She saw that she was breathing weakly, her lips were so white that there was no trace of blood, and she seemed to be dying.
Mammy Fu didn't even bother to greet Nangong Yue and the others, she hurried up to meet them, and said worriedly, "What's wrong with this girl?"
The middle-aged man hurriedly explained: "This mammy, I found this girl doll in a small forest outside Luoyue City. There was no one around at that time... I didn't have the money to send her to see the doctor..."
The old woman couldn't wait to explain: "I think it must be Ren Yazi who kidnapped the child, knocked off his hands and feet to beg, and saw that the child was sick and didn't want to be cured, so he threw it away. What a sin!" of indignation.
Xiao Fei, who was beside him, shrank in disbelief, and also showed anger on his face.
"Mammy Fu, let me..."
Nangong Yue was about to step forward to check on the little girl's injuries, when a figure strode out of the side hall and rushed straight to the little girl.
"What's wrong with this child? Is it okay?" The other party looked at the weak little girl worriedly, and then said to the middle-aged man, "Quick, quick, come with me! I have a doctor here." He greeted eagerly The middle-aged man entered the side hall, and Mammy Fu and the old lady hurriedly followed.
Through the open sash, they could see that they carefully placed the little girl on a large long case. In contrast to the large red lacquered wood case, the child was obviously so weak and petite, as fragile as a pitiful Like a cute kitten.
"Lang Langqiankun, there is such a thing!" Xiao Fei said indignantly, staring at the little girl worriedly, "Sister-in-law, will the child be alright?"
Nangong Yue's expression was a little obscure and inexplicable, she said, "Sister Fei, she will be fine. ... This child suffered from trauma, and it was found in time. Although she will be raised for several months, she is still young after all. As long as you take care of it well, it won't affect the future."
The gray-haired old doctor Yu was carefully examining the little girl's hands and feet... When she touched the sore spot, the little girl's forehead oozes out a lot of cold sweat, and she moaned in pain.
The old doctor at this location was very fast, and skillfully connected the little girl's bones, cleaned the skin of the broken bones, then applied medicine, and then fixed the broken bones with wooden boards and white cloth strips.
Nangong Yue looked at it carefully, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his old-fashioned way of framing his bones.
Xiao Fei said indignantly: "Sister-in-law, these kidnappers are really hateful! If the biological parents of this child knew that she had suffered such a big crime, they would be very distressed. It is also thanks to the child's good luck that he met a kind-hearted person... ..." Finally got his life back.
At this time, the old doctor Yu took care of the injury for the little girl, turned around and said a few words to Boss Jin and Mammy Fu, and followed Mammy Fu and walked out of the side hall with Boss Jin and old doctor Yu. .
As the old doctor walked, he dealt with his mother and said, "Don't move the child for now. If the injury gets worse, it will be troublesome. There is no need to change the medicine tonight. I will see her tomorrow."
Auntie Fu was in a hurry to respond.
Boss Jin followed up: "Mammy Fu, don't worry, I will bring the old doctor here every day for follow-up consultations for this child. The child is still young and the wound will be healed."
"It's really hard work for Boss Jin." Mammy Fu thanked him repeatedly and sighed with emotion, "Boss Jin is really a kind person."
"Mammy Fu has won the prize, so I'm just doing my best." Boss Jin smiled, "Mamma Fu, you still have guests, so you don't have to send them off."
He politely clasped his fists at Mammy Fu, and then left with the old doctor Yu.
Mammy Fu watched the two go away, and then she remembered Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei, turned around apologetically and said, "Mrs. Xiao, Miss Xiao, you were really neglectful just now, and I hope you two don't take offense."
"Mammy Fu is very polite. Since Mammy has something to do, we won't bother." Nangong Yue bid farewell.
Mammy Fu said no again, and personally sent the two to the gate of Shantang.
After getting on the carriage, the smile on Nangong Yue's face disappeared.
Previously, she had asked Baihui to deliberately let out rumors that she would come to Shantang today. Whether the owner of Qianjintang really wants to do business with her or has other goals, most of them will come over to meet by chance, and she also wants to take a closer look.
Boss Kim is indeed here.
It's just that the girl with the broken hands and feet was a coincidence, or...
It's not a coincidence, but if it is deliberately arranged to show kindness, then Boss Jin's intention is probably not as simple as doing business.
Nangong Yue's eyes drooped slightly, she said after thinking, "Baihui, after returning to the mansion, arrange for a clever little maid to go to Shantang to take care of the girl. Send some more rice and noodles over there."
Baihui replied, "Yes, Concubine Shi."
Xiao Fei followed and asked, "Sister-in-law. Can I visit tomorrow?" She is a girl who has not left the cabinet, and she needs permission from her elders to go out.
Nangong Yue nodded, "Of course."
Xiao Fei smiled and muttered to herself with a frown, "What should I bring? I don't know if she likes snowflake candy..."
The carriage entered Bixiao Hall from the gate of Dongjie all the way, thrush greeted it, and said, "Princess Shizi, Madam Zhou is here. The servant told her that you were not in the mansion, but she wanted to wait in the doorman, no Ken leave."
Nangong Yue raised her brows slightly and thought, "Please ask Mrs. Zhou to go to the main room, I will go there later."
Thrush Blessed and led the way, Xiao Fei and Nangong Yue said goodbye and returned to Yuebi Residence.
Nangong Yue went to the room to change clothes, and then went to the main room.
Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Wang, sat uneasily, looking a little absent-minded. When she saw Nangong Yue coming in, she quickly stood up and greeted her with respect, "I have seen the first concubine."
Nangong Yue raised her hand, "Madam Zhou, please take a seat."
Nangong Yue sat on the throne and said bluntly, "I don't know why Mrs. Zhou is here today?"
"Prince Prince Concubine." Wang Shi held the veil in both hands and hesitated.
After Concubine Shizi left that day, she succumbed to it. When she woke up, the second siblings and mother and daughter had already returned, and only Sister Jia was by her side to take care of her. Wang Shi felt that she was really sorry for her daughter. Not only did she let her back down again and again, but now she couldn't even keep her daughter's marriage. A mother like her was simply a drag on Sister Jia.
Wang Shi could see that even though Sister Jia appeared as if nothing had happened, she still used a thick powder to cover up the haggard face on her face.
The more Sister Jia was like this, the more Wang Shi hated herself, so she finally gathered up the courage to come to Bixiaotang.
Wang Shi gritted his teeth and said bravely, "That day, Concubine Shizi, you came to visit and asked about the little girl, but was interrupted at that time, so... the little girl has not yet been allowed to anyone."
After Wang Shi finished speaking, he looked at Nangong Yue eagerly.
Nangong Yue was stunned for a moment, she had not seen such a "simple" person like Wang for a long time.
Whether it is the capital or the southern border, any lady from any mansion can reveal three or four meanings in the last sentence, which is not like the Wang family. Wang's trip clearly wanted to test whether Zhennan Wangfu still wanted to marry Zhou Roujia, but the words of "testing" were too "direct".
Nangong Yue slowly put the tea foam on the tea lid, and after a while, she put down the tea cup and met Wang Shi's nervous eyes.
"Mrs. Zhou." Nangong Yue spoke up and said in a clear voice, "With all due respect, when it comes to family background, the Zhou family is not a good match for the Zhennan Palace. But Miss Zhou's temperament is rigid and soft, and she can advance and retreat properly. I like it in a reasonable manner.”
There was a hint of surprise on Wang Shi's face, and he hurriedly said, "That prince concubine..."
Nangong Yue raised her hand and interrupted her, "It's just that I am satisfied with Miss Zhou, not the Zhou family. But when we get married, the result is the best of the two families. The Nanwang Mansion really doesn't dare to bear it."
Wang Shi hurriedly defended: "Prince Concubine, what happened that day has nothing to do with Sister Jia!"
"It really has nothing to do with Miss Zhou. It would be fine if it was another house, but the Zhou family is different..." Nangong Yue said sharply, "How can Madam convince me that once the Zhou family becomes the in-law of Zhennan Wangfu, it will not be because of the in-laws in the future. Acting recklessly and implicated our Zhennan Palace."
Nangong Yue did not detour, and said bluntly: "Madam can't guarantee that although Madam has the name of the first lady of the Zhou family, she cannot be any head of the Zhou family."
Wang's face was pale, and Nangong Yue's words were like a blow to the head.
yes!
If it is another mansion, no matter how close the relationship is, each house will be separated sooner or later.
But the Zhou family is different. Although there is a distinction between the long house and the second house, the Wang family knows that the long house is only the vassal and foil of the second house, and the second younger sister, Lu Shi, is the head mistress of the Zhou family, so she can be very good at it. Of course, when he saw a guest, he broke in without permission, and turned black and white in front of the prince and concubine in front of him. Perhaps in their hearts, there is no longer the so-called long house, and in their eyes, they are just a humble concubine.
It's my fault that I'm too weak. I haven't been able to support the long house for so many years, and I haven't been able to support the world for my daughter.
Now, it's even more so that my daughter misses her whole life for her cowardice...
"...Prince Prince." Wang Shi's voice couldn't help but add a hint of crying, "What should I do?"
Nangong Yue sighed. Although she could understand Wang's mother's heart, she had no right to speak out about the Zhou family's private affairs.
It's just that she really likes Miss Zhou, and she does have some pity for Wang.
Nangong Yue was silent for a while, then spoke up, and said: "The so-called "Jianxuan two rooms" is to inherit the incense of the two rooms at the same time, to continue the foundation of the two rooms, not to combine the two rooms into one room. Zhennan Wangfu II The son's wife may not have a high family background, but it must be clean and honest."
After speaking, Nangong Yue served tea to see off the guests.
