Chapter 262
Yuan Chuzhi's eyes turned and she smiled and said, "Qianqian, 'What a beautiful country, it's so cool, Qianqian', it's just like her name."
Hearing Princess Yu praise her, Wu Qianqian quickly said with a humble voice: "The princess is too good. My daughter doesn't read much in every day, and it's the first time I heard of this poem today. Speaking of which, the name of the daughter and the poems are not very related. According to my mother, when my daughter was born, my father worked in Youzhou. When there was grass planting in Youzhou, it was called "Qianqiancao". Qiansheng, who grew up in the fields, was very prosperous. My daughter often got sick when she was young, so my father gave me this name, hoping that the daughter would grow stronger like a person. But my mother felt that the word Qian was not suitable for my daughter's home, so my father gave me a name that was homophonic to Qianqian."
When he heard her say that she didn't study much, Yuan Chuzhi was a little disappointed. However, the rare brightness and vividness of the little girl in front of her made her a little greedy.
Yuan Chuzhi smiled and said, "Since it is a name given by your parents with hope, it is more precious than any poetic and picturesque."
While he was speaking, Yuan Chuzhi took off a maple leaf-shaped jade pendant from his waist: "I don't know if I can meet you today, so I'm not prepared. I'll save this for you to play with."
Seeing that the jade pendant was very expensive, Wu Qianqian felt a little nervous. She looked up at her cousin. After seeing her cousin nodding slightly, she smiled and took the jade pendant: "Since that's the case, it's better to obey your orders than respect. Thank you for the reward of the princess."
Seeing that she was not embarrassed, Yuan Chuzhi was particularly happy: "I just like such a bright and generous girl."
It was the first time we met, Mu Yun naturally had to express something and gave someone a gift.
After the greetings, Mu Yun hurriedly arranged for the two of them to take their seats, and smiled and said, "You are here, and I am having a tea with the princess. The princess just brought the new Junshan Silver Needle this year, so you can try it together."
Although Wu Qianqian was worried about her mother's condition, it was useless to be anxious about the current situation. The doctor had not come yet. She had to cheer up and talk to everyone.
Seeing that a cup of tea was about to come to an end, Yulan hurriedly arrived and apologized as soon as she came in: "I heard that the distinguished guest came to see me. I was negligent. Please forgive me."
It’s not that she deliberately delayed the time, but the weather was very good these two days, so she took advantage of the weather to prepare some medicinal materials in the yard. Because she had to work, she wore old clothes and her hair was loosely tied in a bun. She really couldn’t see people. Now she had to meet people, so she had to dress up before she came out.
Except for Yuan Chuzhi, everyone else in the room stood up. Ni quickly smiled and said, "It was our abrupt person who came here. It disturbed Mrs. Yun's leisure. Just Miss Yun is not surprised."
Although Wu Qianqian covered up very well, everyone still saw her concerns and anxiousness. Therefore, Yulan did not delay any further. She exchanged a few greetings with Mu Yun and Yuan Chuzhi and left with Miss Wu.
There is a custom of not visiting the doctor in Dayuan folk, so Ni did not follow Wu Qianqian to the Wu family again, but instead assigned a few appropriate servants to escort her cousin and Magnolia over.
After a few people left, Yuan Chuzhizhi asked Ni with a smile: "I wonder if this Miss Wu is married?"
Although Ni was a little surprised at Yuan Chuzhi's directness, Ni thought about it for a moment and replied with a smile: "My cousin is nineteen years old this year. When I first returned to Beijing, I heard from my grandfather that she had originally decided to have a marriage, but unfortunately, the son of the family had some disgraceful things during the engagement period, so the uncle quitted his cousin. Later, he went out to work and took his cousin to Wuzhou, so his cousin was delayed to the present. This time, my uncle's family returned to Beijing, one to report his work, and the other to find a proper marriage for my cousin. After all, the family here in the capital city, and there are many relatives of relatives. Even if my uncle is out again, he doesn't have to worry about his cousin's lack of support."
Yuan Chuzhi nodded and agreed: "This is true, parents will naturally think a lot about their children." Then she put this aside, and everyone talked about the fashionable clothes and jewelry in the capital, and occasionally gossiped about what happened to whom.
Seeing that she changed the subject, Ni was smart and didn't say much. Therefore, she thought that if the princess really took a fancy to her cousin's character and wanted to tell her to the third prince of Prince Ke, this marriage would be of great benefit to the now declining Wu family. Like my uncle's report on his job this time, because he had no deep relationship in Beijing, his uncle could only seek a fourth-rank official from the third-rank official. Although foreign officials who came to Beijing were mostly demoted to half a level and remained in office, the actual difference between the third-rank and the fourth-rank official was not only half-rank? How many people could not survive the third-rank official?
Mu Yun looked at Ni, who seemed to have something to do, and thought she was worried about Mrs. Wu's condition, and didn't care much.
When the sun was slightly west, seeing that it was no longer so hot outside, Yuan Chuzhi took the maids and the women away.
After she left, Mu Yun smiled and said to Ni, "You can go back now, it's okay. Why not leave after dinner at my house?"
Ni pressed his eyebrows and smiled weakly, "I'm really a little tired today, come here again the next day."
Seeing that she looked a little tired, Mu Yun said, "Yes, aren't you tired after staying out for most of the day today? Since that's the case, I see that it's getting late, so I'll leave you. You can go back and rest earlier."
After hearing Mu Yun's words, Ni bit her lower lip, hesitated for a while, and finally said, "There is something I want to ask my cousin's wife to help me."
Who knew before she could tell what was going on, Mu Yun smiled and said, "You don't need to say anything, I guessed that you must be for Miss Wu's marriage, right?"
Ni smiled a little shyly and said, "My cousin's wife is really smart and can't hide anything from you. I don't want to make things difficult for me. As long as I can help you say a few good things at the right time."
Mu Yun patted her on the shoulder: "Okay, there is no need to say these compliments between us. Since there is a good marriage, I must first consider my own relatives. This is not a shameful thing. I see that Miss Wu is a good person, and she is generous and not shy. It is rare that she has entered the eyes of the princess. You don't have to do anything for the time being, what happened before or what will happen in the future. If you care too much, it will be a little bad. Princess Yu has always been smart, but it will be bad if she accidentally reverses the situation. We can only pretend that she doesn't know anything. The fate will naturally come naturally. If it doesn't work, there are so many young talents in the capital, and she will always find a good husband for Miss Wu."
Hearing this, Ni hurriedly said, "Don't worry, cousin's wife, I still have this idea. I just thought about it myself. I will definitely not go out to talk nonsense. After all, the reputation of a girl's family cannot withstand much trouble."
Mu Yun patted her hand and said, "I know you are a good person, so I am naturally relieved to you. I just gave me a message. By the way, you said last time that your grandmother was in poor health, but Mrs. Wu has been in better health recently?"
Ni replied, "It's much better. I went to see her the day before yesterday. She got up and walked around the yard for a while. Now she can drink half a bowl of mixed grain porridge and eat some buns. It seems to be getting better every day. To be honest, I would like to thank my cousin for introducing the imperial physician, the ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum that I sent to him last time."
Mu Yun smiled and said, "What's the point of thanking for this? Besides, just a little ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum. The medicinal materials need to be used at critical moments. If they are just kept in the warehouse, they will get moldy or lose their medicinal effect when they grow old, then they will be a waste of resources. It is also the old man's life is not over, and after passing this hurdle, good days are still coming."
Mu Yun calculated that if she remembered correctly, Mrs. Wu seemed to be seventy-five years old this year. In this Dayuan, she already belonged to the longevity old man.
Upon hearing this, Ni smiled faintly: "Thank you, my cousin's wife, I don't ask for anything else now, I just want my grandmother to live a healthy life for a few more years."
This time, Mrs. Wu fell ill and really scared Ni. When she was young, she spent most of her time at her grandmother's house. It can be said that she was taken care of by her grandmother. She had a very good relationship with her grandmother. When she got married, her grandmother gave her a lot of dowry. Now she hopes that the old man can be healthy and live a safe life for a few more years.
Mu Yun patted her hand comfortably: "It will definitely happen." The two of them walked while talking. Mu Yun personally sent Ni to the second gate before turning back to his yard.
When it was getting dark, Yulan came back a little tired. While Mu Yun asked the maid to make tea for her, she asked earnestly: "How is this Wu lady's health?"
Yulan replied: "It's nothing serious. It's just that the body can't bear it after a long journey. In addition, it's not timely seeking medical treatment and conditioning, which hurts the vitality. Just take some care of it now."
When he heard that the other party was not seriously injured, Mu Yun put aside the matter and sent the servants: "Go and tell Mrs. Jin, and she said that Mrs. Wu is not seriously injured. Please don't worry."
While talking, a maid came back and reported, "Young masters and ladies are back from school." After a while, Shuhua and Xiao Nanpu walked in hand in hand. Now they were both in the Fu family's girls' school, and they happened to be very close to the Fu family's school. The children traveled back and forth, Mu Yun and the others felt much more at ease.
Speaking of the Fu family girls, the girls in the Fu family were suspended for a while after they were in the middle of their lives. Later, the Fu family leader decided to accept some of their in-laws and started again. Shan Jingyan also went to school at the Fu family girls when she was young. After she became the crown princess, the Fu family girls' school became even more famous.
Although the Fu family is a noble family, the family style is very honest and open, and she is not meticulous in her women, but she has always been quite strict in her studies and upbringing.
Originally, there were not many girls in the Fu family, and they did not recruit female students when they reopened. Shuhua and Xiao Nanpu made an exception because of Wen Tingzhou's glory.
Until Shan Jingyan became the mother of a country, the quota for the Fu family’s female school became very popular in the capital!
Of course, girls from the first-class royal family will not come out to go to girls' school. Most of them are in their own girls' school or Wenhua girls' school. Even if the Fu girls' school teaches a queen, these families will not easily make their daughters "condescend".
