Chapter 104: Meeting the Real Old Lady

The book is "Ode to the Willows" written by Jiang Shuyue. Didn't Zhen Jingxiu let Suisui have the poems and put them in the study?

On the first day of school, Jiang Shuyue asked Suisui to take her there.

Jiang Shuyue was not only obsessed with medical skills, she also liked prose and poetry. She could write hundreds of Tang poems and Song lyrics silently.

Jiang Shuyue had breakfast later than Sui Sui. She washed up, changed clothes, and walked to the front hall. She happened to meet Nangong Zeyue returning after seeing off Sui Sui.

Wearing a crescent-colored plain dress, her bun was held loosely with nothing but a lotus flower on it. Her light makeup and light lipstick made her skin as clear and beautiful as snow.

Just one glance made people's hearts flutter, and Nangong Zeyue naturally looked away from her.

"Are you going to the hospital? I'm just on my way, I'll take you there."

Jiang Shuyue raised her eyes and looked at the door, "It's still early at this time. Qiu Ju and I are going to Zhen's house."

"What are you going to do? They don't know the relationship between Sui Sui and you."

"The housekeeper of Zhen Mansion said that Mrs. Zhen is in poor health. I have been thinking about going there to take a look. I have been busy with the medical clinic recently and I should go over and take a look today anyway."

"They don't know the relationship between Sui Sui and me, so I have to make this trip even more."

Nangong Zeyue was right when she thought about it. She accepted the Zhen family's love and couldn't ignore it just because the other party didn't know about it.

You must know that it is easy to enter the Qingyun Study Room of Zhen Family.

If you want to study in the Zhen family private school, you don't have to be rich or noble. Only those who have the talent to study can enter after being selected by the Zhen family.

After a while, Qiu Ju selected several medicinal materials from the warehouse that were suitable for the elderly to regulate their body.

Nangong Zeyue went to the gambling house, while Jiang Shuyue and Qiu Ju went to Zhenfu.

When the real housekeeper saw Jiang Shuyue, he felt that she looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her before.

"Girl, please come in. The old lady has been looking forward to the lady's visit for a long time." The housekeeper personally welcomed the master and the servant into the courtyard, and sent the slaves to the east courtyard to inform the old lady.

Zhenfu is very big. When you walk into the first door with hanging flowers and look far into the distance, you can see simple and elegant pavilions hidden among the green bamboos.

There are verandahs on all sides, and several framed calligraphy and paintings are hung on the walls of the verandah.

The courtyard is connected by corridors, rockery pavilions, and rocks dotted with exotic flowers and plants.

The heritage of this famous scholarly residence is evident in every aspect, elegance, sophistication and comfort.

The old lady lives in the east courtyard behind the second hanging flower gate.

Arriving at the east courtyard, the old lady was sipping tea under the purple wisteria in the courtyard.

After entering the courtyard gate, Jiang Shuyue greeted her with blessings, "May you be safe and sound, old lady."

"Girl, don't be too polite, hurry up and take a seat, I heard Jing Xiu said you live here..."

Jiang Shuyue raised her head, and Mrs. Zhen's words suddenly got stuck in her throat.

"You...are you Miss Jiang?"

Mrs. Zhen's reaction was expected by Jiang Shuyue. She had been to the Zhen family's banquet and played a pairing game with the girls from the Zhen family.

"My little daughter Jiang Shuyue came from Yannan. Could it be that the old lady has seen someone similar to me?"

"No, the beauty mark between your eyebrows and these eyebrows are very similar."

Jiang Shuyue denied it, and Jiang Shuyue had a childish look on her face many years ago.

Compared with the dignified and spiritual person in front of him, he seems to be a little different.

When she heard that the man was from Yannan, Madam Zhen also hesitated and secretly marveled in her heart that there were so many wonders in the world that there were such similar people. Even the names are the same.

"Old madam, you don't know, right? Miss Jiang knows medical skills and also opened a women's medical clinic."

The real housekeeper handed the medicinal materials Jiang Shuyue brought to the maid serving the old lady with both hands.

On the way to the east hospital just now, Jiang Shuyue told the housekeeper about her opening of a medical clinic.

The old lady smiled kindly and said, "It turns out that the girl has medical skills. It's rare. It's really rare. The girl also sent so many tonics to my old lady. It's so thoughtful."

Before Madam Zhen could give her orders, the maid quickly brought more tea and cakes.

The nanny on the side agreed: "The quality of the medicinal materials is really good. The red ginseng I gave you last time was added to the bird's nest and stewed together. After eating it, the old lady looked much better."

The real old lady was smiling and couldn't help but look at the person in front of her carefully.

He has beautiful eyes, icy muscles and jade bones, a face like a hibiscus, and his gestures are as good as those of a noble family's daughter.

"I heard that the old lady is in poor health, so I came here to take a look today." After Jiang Shuyue sat down, she threw away the purpose of her visit with a smile.

For a noble family like the Zhen family, there must be a doctor in the mansion.

If she opens her mouth and has to check people's pulse, in the eyes of others, she will be a bit too much.

After finishing speaking, Jiang Shuyue looked at Mrs. Zhen's face.

Wearing a delicate hairpin on her gray hair makes her look energetic, but if you look closely, you can see that there are slight bruises under her eyes, and she is obviously sleep deprived.

"Hey! People, they are no longer useful when they get old. Sometimes they feel dizzy and sometimes they can't sleep at night." The real old lady said as she rolled up her sleeves.

"Girl is here today. I'm not polite. I asked her to take my pulse to see how many years I have left in my old bones."

"Old madam, you will definitely live a long life. If you don't believe me, let the girl take a closer look." Mammy said, looking at Jiang Shuyue expectantly.

"Mommy is right. The Zhen family is from a noble family. It has helped countless poor scholars. A family that has accumulated good deeds will surely be blessed. Old madam, she is doing well!"

There was no pulse pillow, so Jiang Shuyue put her fingers on the armrests of the nanmu armchair.

"Miss Jiang has just arrived in the capital not long ago. Why do you know about our efforts to help poor scholars?"

Jiang Shuyue: "..." Sure enough, too much words lead to mistakes.

"Miss is also a book lover. Master Zhen is famous and all the scholars in Yannan admire him." Qiuju rarely interjected.

Everyone likes to hear nice words, and Old Lady Zhen is no exception.

"That's all too much praise. Scholars should not pursue fame and fortune too much and lose their original intentions. Our Zhen family has been hospitable for generations and cherishes talents, so it has gained false reputation."

Jiang Shuyue withdrew her hand, smiled and said: "Just like Qingyunzhai in the front street, the profits are used to provide pens and books for scholars. If you calculate carefully, the rent of several shops and the backyard alone will be a lot of money."

"How can it be counted as rent? That's the ancestral property left by our ancestors. There is such a piece of land for everyone to gather and study. My grandson has also made many friends, All benefited greatly from it. "

After a moment of modesty, the old lady put down her sleeves and asked humorously: "How is it? Can I still hold my great-grandson?"

"Yes, of course, the old lady has a good body foundation, but she was caught in the wind during the confinement period and left the root of the headache."

Jiang Shuyue paused and said: "You can find some sea salt, fry it, put it in a cloth bag and apply it once a day. Stick to it until next spring, and the root of the disease will be removed by more than half."

"I will write you a prescription for conditioning your body and let the palace doctor treat it according to the situation."
