doctor knife in hand

Lu Xin went to the Da Furen's courtyard with anxiety and joy, but when she saw the handsome young man in front of her, her steps slowed down but she didn't dare to recognize him.

"Second Sister!" Lu Jin heard the footsteps, turned around, saw the familiar sister, her eyes lit up instantly, and approached her in surprise.

"A Jin..." Lu Xin's eyes gradually turned red. She looked up at Lu Jin, carefully scrutinized his face inch by inch, overlapping the young man in front of her with the child in her memory, and couldn't help but raise her hand to caress him. , the touch on her hand told her that it was indeed her little brother who came.

"You've grown up...Second Sister almost doesn't recognize you..." As she spoke, tears dripped down her cheeks and her voice choked up.

When Lu Xin married into Ji's family, she was in the Mood for Love when she was sixteen. Now she is 23 and has matured a lot. She wears a woman's hair in a bun, and she is dressed in plain clothes. There is no trace of greenness between her brows, but it adds a bit of melancholy, as if There were many frowns, and a few faint wrinkles were drawn, making her look haggard and weak.

Alone in this big family, with no one to rely on behind, a weak woman can imagine how difficult life is.

Lu Jin felt distressed seeing it, but finally heaved a sigh of relief, at least the second sister was intact.

"Second Sister, how are you here?" Lu Jin asked.

Hearing that the eldest lady glanced at Lu Xin faintly, she seemed to be overly worried. Although the three sisters of the Lu family were of different ages and personalities, they had the same friendship for their younger brother. They reported good news but not bad ones.

"Okay, everything is fine." Lu Xin wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, and when he raised his head again, he looked relieved, "You look more like a mother, you look so handsome, Jin, I will see you again in my lifetime , I am satisfied."

"I'm sorry, Second Sister, I didn't come to see you until now." Lu Jin said apologetically.

Lu Xin shook his head, "How can I blame you, who can defy the imperial decree?"

"Second sister, I have a lot to say to you." Lu Jin cupped his hands at Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji as he spoke, "Grandpa has always said that Mr. Ji is his good friend, and my sister will not be wronged when she marries into Ji's family." Yes, Lu Jin also believes that Master and Madam are kind people, and they will treat my sister well, so I feel relieved when I see her today."

It would be fine if Lu Jin didn't know about the marriage exchange, but he already knew that and still said that, embarrassment inevitably appeared on the faces of Mr. Ji and Mrs. Ji.

"The old man is ashamed." Master Ji said.

The eldest lady smiled and said: "A Jin is outrageous when she says that. She married into Ji's family, so she is Ji's daughter-in-law and also Ji's daughter. As a mother-in-law, I will not treat her badly. All food and clothing are fine. Don't worry, Ah Jin."

The eldest lady looked at Lu Xin lovingly, and said in a considerate manner: "Xin'er, you siblings have not seen each other for many years, and you must have a lot to talk about, so you don't need to stay here, go back to Wutong Garden. I'll ask Nanny Zhou to send you some fresh seasonal fruits that just arrived in the Zhuangzi. You can chat while you eat, and I'll send someone to invite you after the banquet in the evening. Ah Jin doesn't have to rush away, she must stay for a while, It's better to be with Xin Er."

"Thank you ma'am." Lu Jin thanked.

Lu Xin bowed her body, "I've made my mother worry."

In Wutong Garden, Lilac brought her tea and sat in the yard with a sewing basket. She made a knot in front of the house, while Sanqi carried a kettle to sprinkle water on the fields. Look inside the door, looking out for the siblings openly and aboveboard.

"Taste this beauty fragrance, which is treasured by your brother-in-law."

Lu Xin poured tea for Lu Jin, the aroma of the tea permeated instantly, entered the nasal cavity, and flowed into the lung ducts, as if he was refreshed.

Lu Jin sniffed and said, "Is it medicinal tea?"

Lu Xin smiled and nodded, "Well, he figured it out by himself, tea is harmful to his body, and he liked the taste, so he found a kind of medicine and concocted it. The taste is very similar to tea, and it smells better. What do you think?"

When Lu Xin mentioned Ji Chuanzong, Lu Jin couldn't help observing her expression. Seeing her liking, nostalgia, and pride, he couldn't find any complaints, so he knew that the two of them should get along well when Ji Chuanzong was there.

Lu Jin then admired: "It smells good, and it's good to drink it. My brother-in-law... I heard that he is an intelligent, quick-witted person, but it's a pity that I didn't have the chance to meet him."

Lu Xin bent her lips, looked sideways at Lu Jin, who was speaking carefully, and couldn't help laughing: "You don't need to be so careful, Ah Jin, he is an excellent person, I don't regret marrying him, and I am also grateful for this ridiculous In those four years, he treated me extremely well."

Lu Xin's gaze slowly swept across the furnishings in this room. Following her gaze, Lu Jin also took a closer look, and found that the decorations and decorations looked very familiar.

"It looks like my sister's boudoir." Lu Jin suddenly remembered.

Lu Xin nodded, "I was the only one when I first came here. He was afraid that I would be uncomfortable and scared, so he asked me what my house looked like. While I was talking, he memorized it and asked me to verify it repeatedly. After a few days , this place slowly began to change, little by little he gave me his home."

At that time, the Lu family had confiscated their home, and no one knew who owned Lu Xin's attic.Ji Chuanzong was able to arrange Wutong Garden like her boudoir, so that Lu Xin, who was helpless at that time, found a home and gave her stability.

Lu Jin was very surprised. When he first heard the news, he felt very bad about this sick man. In his mind, he was sick all year round, skinny, withdrawn and cynical. Delay his sister.But now hearing what Lu Xin said, he became curious, so he asked, "What does brother-in-law look like?"

"He is a smart and talented person." Lu Xin pursed his lips and smiled with happiness in his eyes, while talking endlessly, "Ji's family is a medical family, and he is the eldest son. Although he is weak, his medical skills are excellent. It started in elementary school. He has never been to a doctor, but he has a lot of research on diseases, medical books and pharmacy, as long as Ji's family has them, he has read them all in his mind. Master Shi Chang brought the diseases that are difficult to treat in Huichun Hall. When I came back to discuss with him, he would think about it when he was free, and the prescriptions were prescribed one after another, and there was a stack of Fenghan alone, which really made him discover a prescription with good effect!"

When Lu Xin said this, his face was full of pride, and he looked proud of it, "In addition to medical skills, he also likes to read some miscellaneous books. Don't think he is in poor health, but he is a restless temper. Growing flowers I want to try it out when I feel better, and I have been learning to do carving work for a while..."

She suddenly stopped, and reached out to touch the hairpin on her head. Lu Jin followed her hand and saw where the hairpin was exposed. The workmanship was really rough, but the edges and corners seemed to have been smoothed.

Lu Jin's heart suddenly moved, "Is that brother-in-law's masterpiece?"

"Yeah, it's just that he is too weak and has no strength, but he didn't let others help until... until he couldn't lift it anymore and didn't finish it..." Lu Xin's smile turned bitter, and his eyes were dazed. , seems to miss her deceased husband.

Since then, this unfinished hairpin has been tied in Lu Xin's hair.

"Second sister, my condolences." Lu Jin said sullenly.

Lu Xin came back to his senses, seeing Lu Jin's eyes filled with apology and comfort, his heart was sour and sweet, "It's okay, Ajin, I just said this to let you feel at ease, I'm doing well, don't blame him."

According to Lu Xin's description, even if Ji Chuanzong lived for only four years, he was much better than Liang Yan who had already been guillotined, but he was a little puzzled, so he asked, "Second sister, I'm not an unreasonable person, it's just why you This matter has never been mentioned before, why every time people from Ji's family come over and over again, it is the young lady who is well, even your letter is the same polite words, I wrote to you but there is no reply, I thought you didn't intend to recognize me This brother."

Lu Xin shook her head, "Why, I love you the most, I want to contact you as soon as I come to Ji's family, but..." She bit her lip and said, rather hard to say, "Ji's family doesn't want me to have more contact with you , Your letter to me, I also intercepted all the letters I gave you."

"But the handwriting is clearly..." Lu Jin stopped talking halfway, and murmured, "Yes, the handwriting can also be imitated."

Lu Xin smiled bitterly: "Your brother-in-law is still trying to find a way for me, but who dares to disobey the orders of the family. He has always wanted to see you after hearing me mention you, but you can't leave Jiangzhou, and he It's hard to get through the door of Ji's family, and it can only be a pity in the end."

This makes sense.

This is also because of Lu Xin's good luck, the eldest young master has a good temper, if she is a bastard, how can she stand in such a family!It is so difficult for Lu Jin to come to see her, but one can imagine that the Ji family is not as kind as it seems today.

When Lu Jin saw Lu Xin today, half of the stone in his heart had been put down, but he still wanted to ask, "Second sister, since brother-in-law has gone, do you plan to stay in Ji's house or...leave?"

leave?

Lu Xin looked at Lu Jin in surprise, and then smiled wryly: "Ah Jin, let alone the friendship with your brother-in-law, since I married into the Ji family, how can I leave? Besides, the Ji family will not let me go. For the rest of my life, I can only be here."

"You are still so young, do you just guard your brother-in-law?"

Lu Xin nodded, "There's nothing wrong with that, as long as that person doesn't stop..." She stopped suddenly, and looked up to see Lu Jin looking at herself suspiciously and asking, "Who is it?"

Lu Xin shook his head and denied it: "It's just a trivial matter. In short, I'm already married, so there's no reason to go back to my mother's house. Ah Jin, you have to take care of yourself. I'm really worried that even eight cows can't be held back, by the way, have you married a wife yet?"

When Lu Jin heard her sister's answer, although she had already guessed it, she was still a little sad that she couldn't help herself.In later modern times, it is not necessary for women to stay single forever, but their own choice. It is up to them to be single or remarry.

"No, it's fine to be alone. I'm about to enter Beijing with Mr. Song. I don't know what will happen in the future. It's too early to think about it."

"You're not young anymore, why did A Yao become a sister and didn't help you?" She was a little dissatisfied at this point, but she didn't know Lu Yao's situation, so she asked, "What's wrong with A Yao, listen It is said that you are married to the son of the master's family, who is still a scholar, so what is the happy event?"

Lu Jin shook her head lightly, sighed heavily, and said about Lu Yao after thinking about it.

Hearing this, Lu Xin opened his mouth, showing a sad expression, his eyes turned red again, and said angrily, "It's simply not as good as a beast, it's hard for Ayao, she..." Then he blamed himself, "It's my fault for being an older sister. , leave the two of you behind, if I had..."

Back then, could she still not marry?

Lu Xin was speechless.

Lu Jin refilled Lu Xin's tea and said, "At least the third sister is with me now, and she will come to Beijing with me in the future. Those things are over, and no one will mention them again."

Lu Xin drank his tea and nodded lightly, "She has a hard life, you should pay more attention."

Your life is not good either, Lu Jin looked at Lu Xin but didn't say that.

"Will I be able to see my eldest sister when I enter Beijing? I don't know if she is doing well or if she misses us." Lu Xin said.

"I will go to see her, and I will confirm each of you." Lu Jin held Lu Xin's hand and said sincerely, "Second sister, don't worry, I will be successful, even if you are here, I will And I won’t let you go, let them bully you.”

Lu Xin smiled and nodded.

While talking, Ding Xiang's voice sounded at the door, "Nurse Zhou, why are you here?"

"Send some fresh fruit to the young lady and uncle to eat, and the table is about to open, please young lady and uncle to go."

Ding Xiang said: "Thank you, Young Madam and Uncle and Young Master will be here soon...you go slowly."
