[Red Chamber] Madam's wishes come true

Bai Lu was full of complaints, but when she saw Lin Kou's shining eyes, she subconsciously softened her temper: "Is this pill really useful? Don't fool people just because Madam is kind. After all, Madam is in charge of the family's livelihood. No matter how kind she is, she is not easy to provoke." of."

Sensing her kindness, Lin Kou became a little more serious: "Don't worry, I can really make Madam pregnant. You can safely give the pill to Madam to take. If it goes well, good news will come out in less than two months!"

Seeing that she was determined, Bai Lu couldn't help being half-believing.

Glancing at the porcelain bottle containing the pills, and then at Lin Kou, who was significantly thinner than before dispensing the medicine behind closed doors, Bai Lu finally brought the bottle of colorful pills to Jia Min.

At the end of the day, she couldn't help saying: "Ma'am, do you really want to take this pill?"

Jia Min raised her head, and couldn't help laughing at Shang Bailu's distorted expression: "If I didn't eat it, why would I bring him back in the first place? I don't doubt the employer, I have to try."

"Besides," she sighed, "it's not like I haven't eaten weirder things before."

Bai Lu is only fifteen or sixteen years old this year, and Daiyu did not serve Jia Min before she was born, so she doesn't know how much hardship Jia Min endured and how many strange things she ate in order to have a child before she became pregnant with Daiyu. .

She didn't understand the heaviness behind Jia Min's words, but since Jia Min said that, she couldn't persuade him anymore.

only……

"Ma'am, the formula of this pill is really weird, you'd better let someone try it before you talk about it."

"Let someone test the medicine?"

Jia Min was a little moved, but quickly dismissed the idea.

"The potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc. that Ms. Kou wants are not difficult to find, but it is not so easy to get together the old century-old ginseng and century-old chili. Gather such a medicine."

"Didn't Ms. Kou say that I must take all of these sixty pills, not one less? If I miss this time, I may not be able to find the full formula again."

Bai Lu knew what Jia Min said was right, but she couldn't help but worry.

Jia Min couldn't help laughing and said: "You girl, you are still young, but you are more cautious than many nuns. Don't worry, I asked someone to ask a famous doctor in Weiyang City about the things Miss Kou asked you for. Beneficial and harmless, the resulting pill may not be useful, but is unlikely to be poisonous."

Only then did Bai Lu feel relieved.

Jia Min put the pill on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, poured out a pill and ate it with water.

On the same day, Lin Ruhai heard the news after he went down to the Yamen, and immediately rushed to Jia Min's yard. After looking at the pills, a worried expression like Bailu appeared on his face: "Why don't you stop taking it? We Now that I have Daiyu, it doesn't matter if I have a son or not."

Ordinary pills are brown, and black and white are rare. Where have you seen colorful pills?

It looked really weird.

Of course it's not that he doesn't want a son, it's just that he cares more about Jia Min's health than the invisible son.

Jia Min's eyes were flushed, and he said with a smile, "Your words are enough."

After finishing speaking, she repeated what she had said to Bai Lu before, "Don't worry, I still want to live a few more years, and I won't make fun of my body."

The husband and wife talked for a while, and then stopped directly.

Lin Kou was still eating.

As soon as the pill was ready, she used her supernatural power to make a wish to make Jia Min pregnant with her son. In the blink of an eye, ten catties of fat disappeared instantly from her body.

Ten catties is not a small amount.

Wearing the previous clothes, Lin Kou looked empty and a little more fairy-like.

Because she ate and slept all day after wearing it, she gained more than ten catties, so this time the wish only consumed fat, and did not affect other tissues of the body.

But suddenly lost weight, the body still sent out a strong signal to eat, forcing Lin Kou to replenish energy.

cough cough...

Of course, it might just be that Lin Kou was just getting hungry.

But no matter what the reason was, she did ask the chef in the kitchen to marinate a pot of mutton skewers at night.

There is a barbecue grill in the kitchen, and the Lin family does not lack the best smokeless silver silk charcoal.

The mutton is tender and tender, although it has a bit of fishy smell, but it completely disappears after being marinated with heavy seasonings. At this time, it is roasted on the hot charcoal fire. and spread out slowly.

If it is paired with a glass of beer, it will taste...

suck-

Lin Kou was eating with gusto, when she suddenly heard someone swallowing, she turned her head and found that it was the maid arranged by the Lin family.

This maid was named Bai Shuang, and she was originally served by Jia Min's side, but was later assigned to Lin Kou's side.

Firstly, Bai Shuang is safe and can take good care of Lin Kou; secondly, Bai Shuang is loyal to Jia Min, and if she finds anything wrong with her, she can immediately report the situation to Jia Min.

Lin Kou looked at the mutton on the plate.

She has a big appetite, and she didn't hide it during the time at Lin's house, so every time the kitchen cooks something for her, she will make more.

This was Lin Kou's first time ordering supper at night. The kitchen was not sure about her food intake, so it was marinated mutton directly according to the day's portion. After skewering on bamboo sticks, the one-foot-square plate contained two plates.

Lin Kou picked up a mutton skewer and handed it to Bai Shuang: "I don't want to eat too much spicy food at night. I can't finish it by myself. Do you want to eat it together?"

Bai Shuang hesitated for a moment, then took the mutton skewers.

The roasted mutton is charred on the outside and tender on the inside. When you take a bite, the fat bursts in your mouth, and the various condiments instantly encroach on the taste buds, making your mouth water impatiently.

Bai Shuang ate until his eyes shined.

It's just that the Lin family's diet is light, and they have almost never seen such heavy-tasting food. Bai Shuang only ate a mutton skewer and began to "sigh" inhale.

Lin Kou was surprised: "This mutton skewer doesn't put much chili at all, why are you so spicy?"

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the mutton on the plate, "Can you still eat it?"

This combat power is too weak.

Bai Shuang looked greedily at the remaining mutton skewers, wishing she could eat ten pieces until she was full.

But the fact is that the burning sensation in her mouth after eating the mutton skewers is really scary, and she is afraid to eat any more.

Bai Shuang held back her hunger and shook her head.

She was about to say something, but when she heard a "click", a little girl's head suddenly appeared from the direction of the courtyard door: "Well, sister Bai Shuang won't eat it, can I eat it?"

After finishing speaking, the little girl's eyes fell on the mutton skewers, and she swallowed with a "gulp".

Lin Kou looked at Bai Shuang blankly.

Bai Shuang was startled, and hurried over to pull the little girl out, then glanced behind her to confirm that no one else was following her, then rubbed the little girl's head dumbfoundingly, and introduced to Lin Kou: "This little girl The girl's name is Xueyan, and she is the maidservant of the elder girl."

Snow geese?

Lin Kou's eyes twitched and brightened.

She smiled and waved at Xueyan: "Can you eat spicy food? Come and taste the lamb skewers?"

Snow geese were originally attracted by the smell of mutton skewers, so why not eat them?Almost as soon as Lin Kou finished speaking, Xue Yan rushed in front of her and took the mutton skewers that Lin Kou had just grilled.

Put it into your mouth in one bite: "Aww, it's so fragrant, so tender, so delicious!"

When Xueyan was growing up, her appetite was quite good.

She eats well, it makes her mouth water when she looks at it, and she wishes to have a feast with her.

After all, Bai Shuang couldn't hold back the temptation, and while Lin Kou and Xueyan were eating happily, she took another bunch of mutton and ate it slowly.

She doesn't like spicy food very much, but she likes it, so she eats meat, drinks water or snacks, and slowly eats mutton skewers into her stomach.

Lin Kou and Xueyan didn't have any scruples anymore, they took one bite after another, one skewer after another, like a competition with big appetite kings, and quickly finished the two plates of mutton skewers.

"belch--"

Xueyan covered her mouth in embarrassment.

After eating and drinking, Lin Kou began to inquire about sister Lin: "How old is your eldest girl? What's her name? When did she start studying?"

Xueyan smiled foolishly, then turned to look at Baishuang.

Although she looked immature and easy to deceive, she was naturally not stupid to be picked by Jia Min out of a bunch of little girls.

Bai Shuang received Xue Yan's gaze, and after careful consideration, she felt that this was not unreasonable news, so she nodded at Xue Yan.

Only then did Xueyan speak innocently: "My girl is five years old, and her baby name is Daiyu. If Ms. Kou meets her, she can be called a girl or a big girl. There is only one girl in the house, so there is nothing special about it." As for reading, I don't know, when I was with the girl the year before last, she already knew a lot of words and read a lot of books."

Lin Kou didn't pay attention to the eyebrows and eyes of the two, and was a little happy when he heard that: "Your girl is really smart."

Xueyan proudly raised her chest: "That's right, my girl is the third smartest in the world!"

"Number three in the world?" Lin Kou was curious, "Who are number one and number two?"

Xueyan proudly said, "Of course it's the master and madam! The girl said that she is not one-thousandth as smart as the master and madam. Of course the master and madam are the smartest."

Lin Kou didn't take it seriously, in her heart, sister Lin was the smartest.

But she didn't want to argue with the child, so she didn't answer the conversation, but chose to change the subject: "Is your girl studying these days? Why haven't you seen her come out to play? Children still need to exercise more to make their bodies healthier healthy."

Xueyan wrinkled her nose: "In the past, in the capital, the girl used to go to the garden to play from time to time. But since Weiyang, the girl doesn't like to come out, saying that there is nothing to see in the garden, so she might as well read a few more books."

She wanted to say more, but she heard Bai Shuang say: "Now that it's getting late, Xueyan should go back to rest, and she will be studying with the girl tomorrow morning."

Xueyan raised her head subconsciously, saw the moon rising above her head, and hurriedly said goodbye: "I didn't expect it to be so late, Miss Kou, Sister Baishuang, I'll go back first!"

After speaking, he turned and left.

She was so fast that Lin Kou couldn't stop her.

But there is no way, Jia Min has not seen any effect yet, so the rest of the family are naturally wary of her.

She wasn't sad, anyway, Jia Min was pregnant.

After that day, Xueyan would occasionally come to Lin Kou's yard, but it was mostly at night, after Daiyu had washed and rested.

Lin Kou likes snow geese very much, every time I eat with her, I can always eat more.

Not long after, Lin Kou slowly regained the weight she lost.

When Lin Kou's face turned round, good news finally spread from Jia Min's side——

Jia Min is pregnant for one and a half months.

As the news spread, everyone in the Lin family was smiling happily, as if they were celebrating the New Year.

When the fetus was three months old and it was confirmed that the fetus was stable, Jia Min almost couldn't wait to have Lin Kou invited to the main courtyard: "Miss Kou, I didn't expect your pills to be really effective. It's only been a while, and I've already I'm pregnant, I really don't know how to thank you."

Lin Kou said "ah": "You don't need to thank us, we each take what we need. You want a child, and I want a place with food and lodging. If neither of us misses the appointment, the deal will be over."

ha?

Jia Min was full of excitement, as if being splashed with cold water, he immediately cooled down: "The transaction is over?"

Lin Kou was puzzled: "Yes, you are pregnant. During this period of time, I also ate well, drank well, slept well, and lived a good life... Could it be that Madam has any dissatisfaction?"

She lowered her head and looked at Jia Min's stomach, "Madam, is there any problem with this baby?"

Shouldn't it be?

This child was bought by her ten catties of fat, and it consumed so much energy, it doesn't make sense that there are other problems during pregnancy.

Seeing that Lin Kou had misunderstood, Jia Min quickly explained: "No, what I mean is, do you have any other requirements? Just living in the Lin family, are you satisfied?"

After a pause, she tentatively said, "You, do you want to see the master?"

Thinking of the previous decision, Jia Min didn't know why, but felt like her mouth was glued on. She really couldn't talk about finding another good family for Lin Kou that she had discussed with the master before.

How old is Lin Kou this year? At the beginning, she was full of enthusiasm to help her conceive, and she just hoped that she could take the opportunity to serve the master. Another family didn't want her to stay in the Lin family...

However, the master doesn't want to see Lin Kou, and she herself doesn't want to add new people to the master...

In just a split second, countless thoughts flashed through Jia Min's mind.

but……

"Why should I see Master?" Lin Kou was at a loss, "If possible, I would rather see Sister Lin."

Although many readers will love the house and the black when watching Dream of the Red Chamber, like sister Lin, but also have a good impression of Jia Min, who has never officially appeared on the stage, and Lin Ruhai, who has appeared less than once, but Lin Kou is not such a reader.

She only likes sister Lin in the whole book Dream of Red Mansions, and the others don't interest her at all.

What's so good about a bad old man?

Jia Min: "?!!!"

"If you really want to thank me, and I feel uncomfortable if you don't repay me, you can let sister Lin live with me. I like your daughter very much. If you can..."

"Can't!!!"

Jia Min quickly refused: "Yu'er still has to study, she wakes up at the beginning of Mao every day, and sleeps at Xu time, even the maids around her can hardly keep the same routine as her, if Miss Kou lives with Yu'er, I'm afraid she will be disturbed. "

Get up at five in the morning and go to bed at eight in the evening?

Lin Kou shivered: "Forget it, I'll live by myself."

This routine is too inhuman!

She wakes up at ten o'clock in the morning and doesn't go to bed until eleven o'clock in the evening, so she really can't live together.

Jia Min then heaved a sigh of relief: It seems that this Kou girl is just a little more enthusiastic about Yu'er, and she is not such a strange person.

When Lin Kou regained his composure, Jia Min asked again, "Are you sure you don't want to see the master?"

Lin Kou was taken aback, not understanding why Jia Min kept asking this question.

But soon, she thought of her identity——

skinny horse.

Lin Kou immediately understood: "Ma'am, don't worry, I never thought of being a concubine. I offered to help you conceive at first, just because I didn't want to go back to Qian's house."
