Happy Life in the Red Chamber

Seeing that it was Jia Zheng's rest day again, Jia Baoyu thought about the messy homework he had memorized, and wished he could find a crack in the ground to get in.

Restless, Jia Baoyu racked his brains and finally thought of a good way, pretending to be sick to avoid the exam.

Baoyu clutched her stomach, and lay down on the bed.Mingxi took a look at this brat, and threw in a medicine while pouring tea, watching the brat drink the corner of his mouth, since he likes to pretend to be sick so much, let you pretend to be enough.

This baby is spoiled, he has never tasted the treatment of Jia's patients, usually he will go hungry for a few days first, and will not eat anything except thin rice porridge.

The medicine that Ming Xi gave him, from the pulse point of view, there will be some accumulated food, just wait, this time he won't lose five or six catties, Ming Xi wrote his name upside down.

When the imperial doctor came, Baoyu was really uncomfortable, dizzy and nauseous, and her face was pale.Except for Ming Xi, the maids couldn't help admiring in their hearts how much he pretended.

The old lady and Mrs. Wang knew that Jia Baoyu was ill, so they ran over one by one.When the imperial doctor checked the pulse, he said a lot of things, but he didn't understand them very well, but finally the imperial doctor said that the diet should be light, and he understood everything after drinking some light porridge these days.

The imperial doctor prescribed a prescription, and took out a golden needle from the medicine box. Jia Baoyu was so frightened by the slender and shining golden needle that Jia Baoyu didn't dare to move.

The imperial doctor nodded in satisfaction: "It's easy to handle if you vomit. Except for the medicine I prescribed, the patient can't eat anything today and tomorrow, and drink as little water as possible. He still vomits. It's fine. It's a good thing to vomit."

After vomiting, Jia Baoyu collapsed on the bed and gasped for breath. He dared not open his eyes now, but when he opened his eyes, he felt dizzy, nauseated and uncomfortable.

The medicine Mingxi gave him showed symptoms of acute gastroenteritis, which came on suddenly and went away quickly, but in ancient times, imperial physicians were still very cautious.

He came to give him injections for three consecutive days. Jia Baoyu still vomited in the first two days, but he stopped vomiting from the third day onwards, and there was no food left in his stomach.Other than a little dizziness, he was much better.

In fact, the effect of the medicine has expired, and the dizziness is all because I have not eaten for three days and I am hungry.But the doctor said that he needs to take care of the disease for at least half a month. If he doesn't vomit today, he can drink a little porridge tomorrow.

Jia Baoyu's hungry chest was pressed against his back, and under Ming Xi's reprimand, no one in a room of maids dared to steal food for him.

Now we all know that Jia Baoyu is not pretending to be sick, but a real sickness. Mingxi puts the big hat on very tightly: "I said ugly things first, you can all see how sick the second master was two days ago, the imperial doctor said No, the second master is not allowed to eat anything except porridge.

Anyone who dares to obey and disobey will harm the second master and yourself.The old lady and the second wife will not spare you.So, no matter how distressed you are, take back your overflowing sympathy.

Good medicine is good for the sick, and honest words are good for the ears. If the second master is sick, he has to follow the doctor's orders.Don't pretend to be smart, do you know better than the imperial physician? "

These words completely dispelled all the unbearable feelings of Qingwen and the others, just like that, even if Jia Baoyu cried and begged, they were all hard-hearted, and they strictly followed the imperial physician's request.

Jia Baoyu drank the porridge for half a month. Although the porridge became thicker later, and the amount was increased from half a bowl to a small bowl, the porridge alone made her hungry, not full.

Jia Baoyu's round, full moon-shaped pancake face was so thin that it turned into a pointed chin, which made Mrs. Wang feel distressed, wishing to see it eight times a day.

Qingwen and the others didn't dare to breathe when they saw Mrs. Wang, and only Mingxi talked freely, holding Mrs. Wang's hand and boasting: "Either way, the old lady will As for the caregiver, Baoyu is surrounded by you, so I can put my heart in my stomach. In the future, if he dares to mess around again, if you can’t persuade him, send someone to tell me. This time, it’s also thanks to you taking care of Baoyu. I know you're a good..."

Qingwen and the others looked at their noses, eyes, eyes and hearts, and they didn't dare to take a breath, for fear that Mrs. Wang would take them under the knife.

Ming Xi is not the kind of person who takes all the credit for himself, giving credit to them one by one.Especially Qingwen, who exaggerated and exaggerated.

Mrs. Wang has always disliked her who looks a bit like Daiyu the most, but this time it was rare to say: "You are also a good person. In the future, I will serve Baoyu well, and the benefits will be indispensable to you."

In order to let them take good care of Baoyu, Mrs. Wang gave each of them two silver peanuts.After Mrs. Wang left, several servant girls surrounded Mingxi and said a lot of compliments and gratitude.

Mingxi smiled and patted Qingwen on the shoulder: "During this time, Qingwen has been exhausted from serving the second master, and the second master's illness is almost cured, you take a good rest these two days, the wife will praise you for being good Yes, let's see who dares to chew the tongue."

Qingwen nodded gratefully, and Mingxi said to the maidservants: "It's true that we are the maids of the second master, but the family members are the wife and the old lady. Usually the second master messes around, we have to persuade him not to follow him Let's make a fuss together.

The wife and the old lady are reluctant to clean up the second master, and it's just a matter of one word to clean up us.So ah, everything has to think twice.

Don't think that those little maids who call us sister really don't know the heights of the sky and the earth, and don't know their own identities.If I really want to offend my wife, does the second master dare to intercede for us? "

Jia Baoyu patted the head of the bed angrily in the room: "Xi Ren, come in for me, whose servant girl are you? You...you, you are so hateful, I want to drive you back to the old lady..."

Mingxi raised the corner of his mouth: "Okay, then I'll go back and pack my things. It would be even better if you can kick me out. I'll find a reliable person to marry when I go back."

Baoyu was so angry by her: "Dream, don't dream, girls talk about their marriage every day, and they are not ashamed, come back to me, shall I let you go?"

Ming Xi turned his head: "Didn't you say you want to kick me out, I'll go and pack up my things."

Baoyu rolled his eyes: "I didn't kick him out, I'm hungry, I want to eat, I heard the imperial doctor say, I can eat."

Mingxi is as good as he is: "Succeed, but Second Master, your illness is just right, we still have to eat soft rice. So, Qianxue, go and tell the kitchen to order a bowl of wontons for Second Master. I want tender chicken stuffing." Yes, let's have some soft and fragrant milk cake.

Nothing else, by the way, let them boil a pot of chicken soup, skim off the slick oil, simmer for several hours on low heat, and serve chicken shredded noodles to Second Master in the afternoon. "

Baoyu sucked his saliva and drank rice porridge for more than half a month, but now he drools when he hears food.

After the wontons were served, he ate half of the milk cake and drank a small bowl of wontons.When he was full, he leaned on the bed and sighed contentedly. Mingxi said to Qianxue: "You and Qiuwen accompanied the second master to walk around the yard twice to digest food. After drinking gruel for more than half a month, it's very sudden. Eating, my stomach can't bear it easily."

Jia Baoyu had a long memory of pretending to be a real illness. Later, every time he pretended to be sick, he would have a serious illness.After several times in a row, Ming Xi quietly said to him: "Second Master, I heard that children are angry, so you don't dare to talk nonsense about yourself being uncomfortable in the future, it's easy to make fakes come true...

Although this statement is not necessarily correct, but do you think, do you get sick every time you finish talking?It's kind of evil, isn't it? "

Although Jia Baoyu scoffed at such a statement, he was a little timid after all, and never dared to pretend to be sick since then.

Jia Baoyu was just recovering from a serious illness, and Mrs. Shi told him to stay at home for a while, and Jia Zheng was not allowed to urge him to study.

Jia Baoyu felt relieved, and enjoyed playing with his sisters and sisters every day, not to mention how happy they were.If you want to talk about him, he really has a deep affection for Daiyu, but it still can't stop him from being close to Baochai and Xiangyun.

Baochai is Mrs. Wang's favorite candidate for Bao's second grandmother. Ever since she entered the Jia's mansion, she has intentionally wooed Mingxi, sending small gifts from time to time.Mingxi is not as shallow-sighted as the original owner, Xue Baochai's calculations are useless, she simply does not accept the trick.

On the contrary, Qiuwen and the others often boast that Miss Bao is better than Miss Lin, not to mention that she is generous, but just talking about how she treats others.Girl Bao is very gentle, no matter who she is to, she is very gentle.On the other hand, Miss Lin has always been cold and indifferent, arrogant and tight, throwing her face when she is unhappy with a word...

This day, the few of them got together again and muttered together, and Ming Xi was annoyed: "Who gave you the courage? How dare you arrange the master behind your back? Who is Miss Lin? How can you maids arrange it? What's wrong with her arrogance? ?They have proud capital.

Mr. Lin is a dignified and dignified third-rank inspecting salt censor. Do you know what the inspecting salt censor does?Jiangnan salt merchants are under his control!Do you know how rich the salt merchant is?Will their family still be short of money?Want to go to a relative's house to play the autumn breeze?I don't understand anything, what are you talking about..."

The few little maids were so trained that they drooped their heads and dared not make a sound.Ming Xi pointed at them after training and said: "I don't want to make a fuss in this yard, there are many people who want to come in, and whoever wants to leave, pack up and leave now.

In the future, if any of you dare to arrange masters behind your back again, I will definitely return to Second Mistress Lian and drive you all out.Go to work, have you two cleaned up the yard?

You, that blog shelf is covered in dust, do you have good-looking eyes?

And you, the flowers and plants on the flower stand are almost dead, can you water them to death?

You, I asked you to make two sets of clothes for Second Master Bao, and I haven't even seen a shadow of it until now, so you still have the nerve to chat with this person? "

After Mingxi's training, a group of people dispersed like birds, and each one was faster and faster at work.

Baoyu and Daiyu stood outside the yard, and they heard clearly what Mingxi said just now.Baoyu was afraid that Daiyu would be sad, so he coaxed her: "Sister Xiren is unreliable, and it's not a day or two, just listen to what she says, don't take it to heart."

Daiyu was a little moved, what Mingxi said just now made her enlightened.That's right, she is the eldest daughter of a third-rank official, so what is there to feel sorry for?It's true that she lives in her grandfather's house, but her father gave her a silver ticket. Even if she wears gold and silver, eats delicacies from mountains and seas, and drinks bird's nest porridge, she can't spend it all.
