Ping'er: "Grandpa Jing ran away early in the morning. Ah Nuan doesn't have to worry about him. As long as it's time to eat, he will definitely come back."
As he spoke, he frowned at Jiang Nuanzhi again: "You It's better to get some sleep. Taking care of yourself is the most important thing!"
"I know." Jiang Nuanzhi didn't refuse. He took off his shoes and got on the hot bed.
"I fed Xuanting and will sleep here later. The ribs should be simmered for a while, keep an eye on the fire, and it will stop cooking for another quarter of an hour. You should also be there when the time comes. It’s time to eat.”
Ping’er nodded: “Don’t worry, the waiter is keeping an eye on me.”
Jiang Nuanzhi nodded, took the bowl, cooled the porridge and put it to Xiao Xuanting's mouth.
Xiao Xuanting subconsciously took a bite from Jiang Nuanzhi's hand, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Jiang Nuanzhi's face. Only then did he realize that Aunt Nuan's eyes were dark blue.
She seemed to have lost some weight, and the clothes that fit her before were now much looser on her body.
There were strong wines on the surrounding plates, and many silver needles were soaked in the strong wine. There are unburned candles beside it. Xiao Xuanting secretly glanced at his hands, and saw that there were numerous small wounds from silver needles.
He had seen Aunt Nuan perform acupuncture on his uncle. It took a long time to perform acupuncture. Aunt Nuan was often sweating profusely from work, and after finishing her work, she would rub her waist and move for a long time.
Did you also let Aunt Nuan suffer?
Xuan Ting found it strange. Except for the slaves, no one had ever treated him like this.
It is said that there is no shortage of people around him. As long as he needs someone, there will always be someone around him.
But they are all slaves. Moreover, they were guarding him in shifts. As soon as he slept, the people around him would always change when he woke up.
The same goes for the doctors at the Imperial Hospital. When someone gets sick, there will be corresponding doctors to treat him.
Everyone performed their duties, serving him carefully as if he were a precious object.
Of course there is no one like Aunt Nuan.
He once saw his little sister being sick. The imperial concubine held her in her arms, gently coaxed her to take medicine, fed her porridge slowly, and sang songs softly in her mouth. He never Never heard of it, but I remember it sounded very good.
In a daze, I felt that this porridge was also very delicious. It tasted better than any food he had eaten before.
"Does it taste good? I spent some time tearing the cooked chicken into thin shreds and simmered it for half a day. The shredded meat was almost melted. Xiao Baozhu and the others loved it. "Jiang Nuanzhi said with a smile while feeding him porridge.
"It tastes good." Xuanting nodded and secretly clenched his fists, and drank the porridge obediently.
But his eyes were fixed on Jiang Nuanzhi, as if he was afraid that she would run away in the next second.
Jiang Nuanzhi found it funny: "Why are you staring at Aunt Nuan like this? Do you have something to say?"
Xuan Ting shook his head slightly: "Aunt Nuan is pretty."
Jiang Nuanzhi smiled and nodded his forehead: "I'm used to coaxing people."
"Aunt Nuan, would you like to lie down and sleep for a while?"
Xuan Ting looked at Jiang Nuanzhi expectantly.
Jiang Nuanzhi put down the empty bowl and picked up another bowl. When he lowered his head, he saw Xiao Baozhu blinking at her with his big eyes.
I couldn't help but put the porridge to her mouth: "Baozhu wants to eat too?"
"If Baozhu doesn't eat it, mother will."
Baozhu said, pushing Jiang Nuanzhi's hand with her little hand: "Mom, eat more."
Jiang Nuanzhi drank the bowl of porridge under the watchful eyes of the two children.
Don't mention it, Jiang Nuanzhi couldn't help but yawn after eating the warm shredded chicken porridge.
Looking down at Baozhu, he looked at her and took his daughter into his arms. He said with a smile: "Let's sleep with my mother for a while."
Baozhu nodded immediately, she was not sleepy, it was just good to lie with her mother. She once thought that her mother would never come back. Fortunately, her brother didn't lie to her. Her mother really came back and brought Grandpa Xin with her.
Dad said that my mother must have suffered a lot.
She was told not to disturb her mother, but she really missed her mother so much that she didn’t want to be separated from her at all.
Seeing Jiang Nuanzhi closing her eyes and sleeping, her eyes were even shining.
Carefully help my mother tidy up her long, silky hair.
Jiang Nuanzhi was really tired and fell into a deep sleep after a while.
Baozhu in her arms was not sleepy at all, but soon began to yawn, and actually fell asleep in her arms.
Xiao Xuanting kept paying attention to the mother and daughter. After they both fell asleep, she couldn't help but move closer to Jiang Nuanzhi.
As he moved, the pain in the wound was unbearable. He grinned in pain, but he still moved.
Getting closer, he deliberately wanted to reach out and secretly pinch Jiang Nuanzhi's sleeve, but Jiang Nuanzhi inadvertently moved his wrist while sleeping, and Xuanting's hand was empty.
Xuanting's whole body froze as if he had been caught stealing something. He didn't move anymore, but his eyes fell on the little Baozhu who was fully held in Jiang Nuanzhi's arms, his eyes full of envy.
Jiang Nuanzhi had a very comfortable sleep. When she woke up again, the sky was completely dark, there was the faint sound of insects in her ears, and the moon hung high. It was obviously late at night.
I stood up and looked around, and saw that the children around me were already huddled together to sleep.
Because there were few quilts, Ping'er and Xiaoer were only covered with thin clothes. Both of them curled up to sleep.
Jiang Nuanzhi gently turned the quilt sideways and covered Baozhu and them both.
Seeing the waiter's tightly frowning brows relax, she couldn't help but curl her lips.
She reached out her hand and touched Xiao Xuanting's little head. The child did not have a fever today and his body temperature was normal. She couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
After sleeping for a long enough time, it was difficult for her to fall asleep again, so she simply got up quietly and went out.
Hooking his arms to light the fire, he sat on the pony and boiled water while looking up at the sky full of stars.
I can’t help but think of my childhood, when there were not so many high-rise buildings. The moon was very bright, the spring water was very cold, and the sounds of crickets, cicadas, and frogs were very clear.
She also used to sit in front of the window at night and play with the puppy, waiting for her parents to return from their busy work.
It’s just that there are not many such beautiful memories. Later, she lost her father and fell into that rainy day left by her mother in the amusement park.
Later, when you get up from a high floor, what you see when you look up is no longer the stars, but the lights of thousands of houses.
She once thought that one day, among the thousands of lights, there would be a light that belonged to her. It's a pity that she is a veterinarian who can earn 300 or 500 for delivering a cow. Not enough to reach the threshold. In fact, her income was not that small, but she probably spent more money. She didn't save enough for the down payment until she bought it.
Looking at the small yard surrounded by fences now, it may be a little dilapidated and crude, but it is still very pleasant. At least this place is hers to do with as she pleases.
Now that Xin Bo has taken it back, the big stone in Jiang Nuanzhi's heart has fallen. Even though I spent a lot of money, the good people are better than anything else.
Thinking like this, I took out all the money left in my pocket.
She bought some things for the children in Canglin City, as well as this donkey cart, but now she only has a little loose money left with her. It looks like six taels more than seven taels.
Master Lu had some shitty luck and sold Li Rong's calligraphy for fifty taels of silver, and now she still has the banknote. After excluding the forty taels he borrowed from Mr. Lu, his net worth is still more than sixteen taels. More than enough to support the household. However, it is not enough to build a house that she is satisfied with.
“What are you thinking about?”
When Jiang Nuanzhi was lost in thought, he suddenly heard a voice behind him and was startled.
When she turned around, she saw a pair of cool eyes looking at her through the window. (End of this chapter)
