Syndicate Growth Manual

Zhao Chen's thoughts lasted only for a moment, so he said to Jia Xun, "Tao Rui, you should deal with it according to the rules."

Lu Hui twirled her beard, but became worried: "Patriarch, since you know the origin of Tao Rui, why don't you deal with it..."

"Sir, you're thinking about it." Zhao Chen shook his head, "If you don't deal with it, it will arouse the suspicion of the monarch."

Jia Xun didn't care about them, he always ordered and prohibited them, and he would do what Zhao Chen said.Hearing Zhao Chen's decision, he bowed and retreated, and left happily.

There was silence in the study for a moment, Lu Hui had all kinds of things to say in her heart, but she was full of worries, so she just sighed and said nothing.

Zhao Chen pondered for a moment, and said: "Tomorrow, the monarch may call me into the palace, and the family will depend on Mr."

Lu Hui nodded: "Patriarch, please put it down, Hui will save it."

Unexpectedly, after three days, there was no news from the palace.Zhao Chen didn't see anything special about the monarch in several court meetings, and he didn't pay much attention to himself.Taking advantage of the monarch's retreat, he asked people to ask eunuch Yu, but eunuch Yu didn't know what he was asking.

"How about Wang Ji?"

"Wang Ji is seriously ill."

Zhao Chen knew it in his mind.About Zhao Jing fell ill as soon as he returned, and Zhi Jinwu only knew the superficial things. After the autumn hunting, the grain harvest was abundant, and there were still ceremonies in the palace. The king might not be able to ask him for the time being.

The noble Wang Ji was not the only one who was sick. After Zhao Yuan regained her strength, Li Chun was still lying on the bed.On the afternoon of the first day she came back, she suddenly passed out in the tea room, and then developed a fever. After a few bowls of medicine, the fever was subsided, but she lost her voice again, and she still can't speak now.

Lixia sat on the side of the couch worriedly and handed her a glass of water: "I'm afraid that's why I was suddenly sad and happy at that moment, and I was pulling my throat again. What if my throat is broken?"

Li Chun's face was pale, and he smiled weakly.She knew her own body well, at that time she really thought that Da Lang was dead, she was heartbroken for a while, and she could only hold on with one breath, and when she returned to the mansion to relax, wouldn't she be sick?Her throat had already started to hurt when she was in the camp, she didn't care, it was so serious.

"You take a good rest. I've already taken leave for you. Mr. Lang told you not to worry about it, just take care of yourself." Li Qiu came in from the house with a medicine bowl in his hand, and said softly, "I'll take care of everything in Qiushou." Got it, thanks to you protecting Dalang, but you suffered a crime."

On the contrary, Li Chun became embarrassed and uneasy, shaking his head again and again: "I..."

"Okay, if you can't make a sound, don't force it," Li Qiu also sat down on the couch and stopped her, "In that case, who knows if Wang Ji will come forward, you can protect Da Lang when you go there, I know it all too clearly in my heart." She sighed with a smile, "Da Lang misses you too, if it wasn't for Mr. Lang not allowing him to get out of bed, he would still watch you, and just like that, I caught him once and was about to sneak away Mile."

Li Chun lay half-lying and listened quietly to her, pursing his lips, but his eyes slowly filled with water.She understands Li Qiu's meaning, Da Lang is a good master, although they are only mere servants, they can get Da Lang's gratitude and love... She can get the same reward for her hard work, what does this kind of joy have to do with status Woolen cloth?

"I, I will practice my courage in the future to protect Da Lang!" Li Xia suddenly stammered from the side.

She thought angrily, she was also worried about Da Lang at the time, but somehow she fainted from fright, alas, before the gentleman said that Da Lang was a coward, she even laughed at Da Lang, this time we can see who is the coward I'm so smart...

Now Lichun and Liqiu laughed, and Lichun was still sick, so he couldn't help it.

Li Qiu suppressed a smile and said: "I know you are a good person, just keep practicing."

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became cheerful again.After chatting for a while, Lichun looked at the sky and pointed outside. They grew up together, and Lixia immediately understood, and said: "It's fine for me to take care of it here. Anyway, I'm taking a day off today. Sister Liqiu, come back soon." Let’s go to the yard, Lidong alone is not enough.”

Li Qiu couldn't let it go, but he still said: "It doesn't matter if it's a while, the Fanglings around Dalang are all here. But I have to go, the work they are doing is not good... ..." Walking out, he pointed to the medicine on the desk, "Don't forget to drink the medicine, it's been cold for a long time."

But she said that she went all the way back to Muxiyuan, and saw Fangling sitting on the porch doing embroidery work, she couldn't help raising her eyebrows and said: "You guys are not waiting in the house, what are you doing outside?"

Fang Ling hurriedly put down her purse, pointed to it and whispered, "My lady is inside, with Sister Bisi and Sister Yingge..."

Li Qiu frowned, and looked at her with cold eyes: "The lady is here, don't you want to make tea and deliver fruits? Why can't we have others to make these in our own yard?"

The four Fangs were all startled by her tone, they all lowered their heads but were speechless.The truth is naturally this truth, but there are also ranks and ranks among servants.Although they are Da Lang's personal maids, that is the future, and now they are just little girls who learn the rules from the first-class maids. Those who call them elder sisters tell them to stay outside, and the lady has never spoken, so they dare not come out.

Seeing this, Li Qiu was even angrier, and his voice was a little colder: "What? What I said doesn't make sense?"

Fang Ling was excited, and said in a courteous way: "Fang Ling knows! Next time I won't dare to leave Da Lang behind!" The rest of the group, who had always followed her lead, also murmured their determination.

Li Qiu's expression softened, and he asked, "Is there tea in the room?"

"Not yet," Fang Ling also felt that she was not doing well this time, "Let's go to the waiter to prepare!"

"That's right," Li Qiu said carefully, seeing how teachable she was, "No matter what, there is no reason to leave the guests alone. Our yard is in a superior position. Bisi and the others dare not walk around at will, and neither do you. Move, whose face was lost in the end? That is, after Dalang returns to his own yard, you want to stay outside as soon as he is chased? What should be done is still to be done!"

"Yes." The little girls obediently agreed, and went to work separately.

Their conversation was very quiet, and anyone who entered the inner courtyard could remember this very clearly.Li Qiu stood for a few moments, straightened his clothes, and opened the curtain to go in.After the autumn hunting, the days became colder every day, and the bamboo curtains had long been replaced with cloth-embroidered door curtains, which could not be easily blown by the wind.

She heard muffled voices coming from the inner room, so she quietly walked behind the partition and sat down on her knees, and said softly: "Lady, Dalang, Liqiu is back."

There was the sound of clothes being ruffled inside, and the partition door was slowly pushed aside from inside, but it was Yingge who pushed the door open.Both she and Bisi were wearing neat double buns, tied with blue ribbons, and only wearing the thin silver hairpins inlaid with beads for fixing the buns. They were dressed in pea green clothes, the cuffs slid down, revealing delicate wrists. white.

"Sister Liqiu." Yingge knelt behind the partition and smiled at Liqiu.

Li Qiu curled his mouth, raised his head after bowing, and kneeled to the right side, kneeling in a row with Yingge Bisi.

Fan Shi was sitting on the couch, a small square away from Zhao Yuan.She had rested for a few days, and her complexion was much better than when she just returned home. She was wearing a ponytail and a white jade peony flower hairpin. The light green cloak, although the upper and lower body is clear and light, it shows a bit of blood on the face.

She seemed to have had a good chat with Zhao Yuan just now, with a slight smile on her face, and a very relaxed posture leaning on the pillow.

Zhao Yuan was very happy to see Li Qiu, and didn't shy away from Fan's presence, so he asked, "How is Li Chun? Is your voice better?"

Li Qiu respectfully said: "Back to Dalang, his complexion is much better, but he can't speak yet, but he can speak."

"If there is benefit, it will be good." Zhao Yuan patted his chest with his small hands, looking like an elder worrying about the younger generation, "I can rest assured now, it would be a pity if a girl's voice is broken."

Fan's said: "I'm afraid I can't speak because my throat is congested. I have a medicine called Yinhuangyu Dropping Pills. I don't know if it is sold outside. The Fan family came here as a dowry. It specializes in reducing swelling and silting. You can even get a bottle out of your voice." She is usually vigorous and decisive, so she told Yingge, "Get it from my medicine box made of fragrant fir, and send it to Lichun."

Liqiu has no right to come forward in this kind of matter, so Zhao Yuan declined: "Since I said it was a dowry, it can be seen how precious it is. In Lichun, there is medicine prescribed by Qin Shiyi. Although it is not as good as mother's medicine, it is easy to take it slowly. How can mother Expense!"

Fan smiled faintly: "Don't need to say much, Anu, I didn't know what to do that day, and I knew that you protected me and suffered a great crime. I saw you well in the past few days, and I still feel palpitations at night... Lichun protected you, how can I protect you?" Did you save me? So I gave her all the medicine, and I was worried that she wouldn't be able to take it all, let alone just take out a bottle."

Although the tone of these words is flat, they can be heard with sincerity.Zhao Yuan didn't say anything, but his heart couldn't help but move.

"In this way, I thank my mother for Lichun." He said in a low voice.

Yingge led the order to go out, and Fangling brought tea and snacks in. Liqiu was afraid that there would be too many people in the room, so he took the food boxes and put them all on the square table.Zhao Yuan took a look, and saw a pot of scented tea, a plate of shrimp oil cucumber, a plate of goose pastry rolls, a plate of duck tongue with flowers, and a plate of pickled peach kernels, none of which was sweet.

Li Qiu didn't know him, and seeing his puzzled face, he explained: "Please tell me, tell the kitchen to make less sweets, so that Da Lang doesn't break his teeth. It shouldn't be served with scented tea, but the lady is pregnant, and scented tea is warm in nature. , it doesn’t matter if you drink it.”

It's only been a few days!The treatment of the sick number is gone!

Zhao Yuan looked depressedly at the several dishes on the table, they were clearly appetizers, how could it be like afternoon tea?His father is too foolish... But fortunately, these dishes are all his favorites, alas, they can be regarded as open meat.

Seeing his appearance, Fan felt better and had an appetite.This time she looked away, as if she had been dazed some time ago, she got into a dead end!Even if she hurt herself, she should think about it, her life is not too bad now.Among those aristocratic families, how many women are really happy?The left side is nothing but an unbiased room at home, but I don’t know how many men are handsome and beautiful!

Even those who are deeply affectionate do not live long.Didn't you see that Xie Changliao, the eldest son of the Xie family in Yaojiang, had a deep love for his wife Mi Qin, and the two of them achieved a good story in a short time, but unfortunately Xie Jing died of illness when he was only 27 years old, Mi Qin was determined to keep the festival, and the rest of his life was just like this.

Although Zhao Chen was ruthless to her, he kept his word. As long as she did her part, and Zhao Yuan was kind and kind, it would not be hard for her to guard her child...
