It is said that because of Jin Rong's large number of people and the order of Jia Rui, he kowtowed to Qin Zhong, and Baoyu stopped making noise.After everyone finished school, Jin Rong returned home, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and said: "Qin Zhong is just Jia Rong's brother-in-law, not a descendant of Jia's family, and he is just like me when he goes to school."Because he relied on Baoyu to be friendly with him, he was defiant.Since he is like this, he should do some serious things, and no one will say anything.He and Baoyu sneaked around on weekdays, just thinking that everyone was blind and couldn't see.Today he went to hook up with someone again, but he bumped into my eyes.Even if something goes wrong, what am I afraid of?

His mother, Mrs. Hu, heard him grumbling, and asked, "Why are you fighting for your time?"It was so hard for me to see your aunt told her, and your aunt did everything possible to tell the second grandma Lian in their West Mansion, and you got this place to study.If it weren't for relying on others, our family still has the strength to invite Mr. Qi?Besides, in other schools, tea is also readily available, and rice is also readily available.You have been studying there for the past two years, and your family has saved a lot of food.Save it, and you love to wear bright clothes.Besides, it's not because you study there that you know Mr. Xue?Uncle Xue didn't pay for one year, but he also helped us with seven or eighty taels of silver in the past two years.Now that you are going to make trouble out of this school, and then find such a place, let me tell you, it is more difficult than going to heaven!You give me an honest and stubborn time to sleep in your sleep, it's a lot.So Jin Rong swallowed his anger and went to sleep after a while.I still went to school the next day.No problem.

Let's talk about his girl, who was originally hired by the descendant of the Jia family's Yu family, named Jia Huang.But there is no need to elaborate on the wealth and power of the Ningrong Second Mansion among all the members of his clan.Jia Huang and his wife kept a small property, and they often went to the Ningrong Second Mansion to say hello, and they flattered Sister Feng and Youshi, so Sister Feng's son Youshi also often sponsored him, so that he could live like this.Today, the weather was fine and there was nothing to do at home, so I took a woman, got in the car, and came to the house for a walk to see the widow's wife and nephew.

During the gossip, Jin Rong's mother mentioned what happened in Jia's school room yesterday, and told his sister-in-law everything from the beginning to the end.If Grandma Huang didn't listen, it was fine, but when she heard it, she became angry for a moment and said, "This Qin Zhong bastard is a relative of Jiamen, so isn't Rong'er a relative of Jiamen?"Don't be so snobbish, and what's more, they are all doing some good things with face!Even Baoyu couldn't afford to go to him like this.When I go to the East Mansion to visit our grandma Zhen, I will talk to Qin Zhong and his sister and ask him to comment on this truth.Jin Rong's mother was very anxious when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "This is all my quick talk, I told my aunt, please don't go, don't worry about who they are right and wrong."If there is a commotion, how can we stand there?If he can't stand up, not only can't the family invite Mr., but they will add a lot of chewing to him.Grandma Huang heard this, and said, "There are a lot of management there, wait for me to tell you, and see how it goes!"He didn't allow his sister-in-law to persuade him, so he told the old lady to look at the car, and then got in and went to Ningfu.

When I arrived at Ningfu, I entered the car door, got out of the car in front of Xiaojiaomen on the east side, and went in to see Jia Zhen's wife Youshi.Not daring to get angry, Yin Qinqin talked about the cold and warm, and said some gossips, Fang asked: "Why didn't you see Grandma Rong today?"Youshi said: He doesn't know what's going on these days, and he hasn't had his period for more than two months.Ask the doctor to look at it, and say it's not hi.In those two days, in the second half of the day, I was too lazy to move, too lazy to talk, and my eyes were dazzled.I said to him: You don't have to be formal, you don't have to come up as usual sooner or later, you can just give birth.That is, there are relatives and a family, including me.There are elders who blame you, wait for me to tell you.I even told Brother Rong, I said: Don't tire him out, don't make him angry, just tell him to raise him quietly.If he wants to eat anything, he can just come to me to get it.If I don't have it here, just look to your second aunt Lian to go there.If he has a good and bad relationship, if you want to marry such a daughter-in-law again, with such a appearance and such a temperament, there is nowhere to find her with a lantern.He behaves like a person, which relative, the elder of that family doesn't like him?So I have been very worried these two days, and I am so anxious.But this morning his brother came to see him, who knew that the kid didn't know what to do, and when he saw that his sister was not very cheerful, he shouldn't tell him anything, let alone such a trivial matter, even if you suffer ten thousand points You should not tell him if you are wronged.Unexpectedly, they had a fight in the school room yesterday, and a person from the attached school there bullied him.There were also some dirty words in it, and I told his sister all of them.Auntie, you know that daughter-in-law: Although she talks and laughs when she sees people, and knows how to act, she is careful and heavy-hearted. No matter what she hears, she will have to measure it for three days and five nights.This disease is thought out of this disposition.Hearing that someone bullied his brother today, he was both annoyed and angry.What's annoying is that group of bastard friends who gossip about right and wrong, those people who are confused, what's annoying is that his brother doesn't study well, doesn't pay attention to studying, so he is so noisy in school.After hearing this, he simply didn't even eat breakfast today.I heard it, and we went to him to comfort him for a while, and then persuaded his brother for a while.I asked his brother to look for Baoyu in the mansion over there. I watched him eat half a cup of bird's nest soup before I came over.Auntie, do you think I am anxious?Besides, there is no good doctor now, when I think about his illness, my heart feels like a needle pricks me.Do you know any good doctors?

After listening to the conversation for a long time, Mrs. Jin was so frightened that the group at his sister-in-law's house wanted to argue with Mrs. Qin just now, and threw it all in Java.Hearing You Shi asked him if he knew of a good doctor, he quickly replied: We have listened to this, but we have never seen anyone say that there is a good doctor.Now that Grandma is heard, she must be happy.Sister-in-law, don't teach people to mess up.If you get it wrong, that's a big deal.Youshi said: "That's not true."While talking, Jia Zhen came in from the outside, saw Jin Shi, and asked You Shi, "Isn't this Grandma Huang?"The Jin family went forward to greet Jia Zhen.Jia Zhen said to You Shi, "Let this eldest sister eat."Jia Zhen walked through the room while talking.When Mrs. Jin came here, she wanted to tell Mrs. Qin that Qin Zhong had bullied his nephew. When she heard that Mrs. Qin was ill, she not only couldn't tell her, but also dared not mention it.Besides, Jia Zhenyou's stay was very good, she turned her anger into joy, talked for a while, and Fang's family went.

After Mrs. Jin left, Jia Zhenfang came and sat down, and asked Mrs. You, "Is there anything he wants to say when he comes today?"You Shi replied, "I didn't say anything."When he came in, his face seemed to be a bit annoyed, and after talking for a long time, he mentioned his wife's illness, and his expression gradually calmed down.You asked him to eat again, and when he heard that his wife was so sick, he felt embarrassed and just sat there, and left after saying a few gossips, without asking for anything.Now let's talk about my daughter-in-law's illness. It's important to find a good doctor there to have a look with him, so don't delay.Now the group of doctors in our family, wherever they want, they all listen to others, and he will add a few words to say what others say.But they are very attentive, three or four people take turns to check the pulse four or five times a day.They all discussed and set up a prescription, but it didn't work. They changed their clothes four or five times a day, and sat up to see a doctor, which was of no benefit to the patient.Jia Zhen said: But.This child is also confused, why bother to take it off and change it, if he catches a cold again and becomes sicker, then it's fine.No matter how good the clothes are, they are worth nothing. The body of the child is important, even if you wear a new set every day, it is not worth anything.I'm coming in to tell you: Feng Ziying came to see me just now, he saw that I was a little depressed, and asked me what's wrong.I just told him that my daughter-in-law suddenly felt very uncomfortable. Because I couldn't find a good doctor, I couldn't tell whether it was happiness or illness, and I didn't know if it was a hindrance or not, so I was really anxious these two days.Feng Ziying said that he had a teacher who studied when he was young, surnamed Zhang Mingyoushi, who was the most knowledgeable, and also had profound medical knowledge, and could judge people's life and death.This year, he came to Beijing to donate an official to his son, and now he lives in his house.From this point of view, it is not known that it is suitable for the daughter-in-law's illness to be cured by him.I immediately sent someone to invite me with my name card.If you can't come today or it's too late, you must come tomorrow.What's more, Feng Ziying went home immediately and begged him in person, be sure to ask him to come and have a look.Let's wait until this Mr. Zhang comes to see it.

Youshi was very happy when he heard this, because he said: "The day after tomorrow is the grandpa's birthday, what should I do?"Jia Zhen said, "I just went to my grandfather's place to say hello, and I also invited him to come to receive gifts from the whole family."The grandfather said, "I'm used to being clean, and I don't want to make trouble in your nonsense."You must say it's my birthday, and if you want me to get people's heads off, nothing is better than asking me to get people's heads off for no reason. A hundred times.If your family is coming in the next two days, you can treat them well at home.You don't need to bring me anything, you don't even need to come in the future, if you feel uneasy, you kowtow to me today.If you want to come in the future, and how many people you follow to make trouble for me, I will not agree with you.Having said that again, I will never dare to go there in the future.He also called Lai Shenglai and told him to prepare a two-day feast.Youshi called Jia Rong to come and told Lai Sheng to prepare a two-day banquet as usual, which should be rich and abundant.Then you go to the West Mansion to invite the old lady, the eldest wife, the second wife and your second aunt Lian to visit.Your father heard about a good doctor today, and he has already sent someone to invite him. He must come tomorrow.You can tell him in detail about his illness these days.

Jia Rong agreed to go out one by one.Just in time, the boy who had just gone to Feng Ziying's house to invite that gentleman came back, because he replied: "The slave just came to Uncle Feng's house and took the master's name card to invite that gentleman to go."The gentleman said: "The uncle here just told me too."But today, after paying homage to a guest for a whole day, I just returned home. At this time, I really can't support my spirit, even if I go to the house, I can't check my pulse.He said that after adjusting his breath overnight, he must come to the mansion tomorrow.He also said that his medical knowledge is shallow, so he didn't dare to recommend it again, because our uncle Feng and the adults in the family have already said so, and we have to go, you just go back to Lord Ming for me first.I dare not take the name post of an adult.Still asked the slave to take it back.Let me reply for my slave.Jia Rong turned around and went back in. After replying to Jia Zhenyou's words, Fang came out and called Lai Shenglai, telling him to prepare a two-day banquet.After Laisheng listened, he went to cook as usual.No problem.

Let's say that at noon the next day, the person replied: "The Mr. Zhang you invited has come."Jia Zhen then went into the hall and sat down.After tea, Fang Kai said: "Yesterday, Uncle Feng told me about the old man's character and knowledge, and he also has a deep knowledge of medicine. My younger brother admires him very much."Mr. Zhang said: "Late birth is a rough corporal, and my knowledge is shallow. Yesterday, Uncle Feng told me that I am the most humble corporal, and I dare not obey orders.But there is no real learning, and it is even more embarrassing.Jia Zhen said: "Sir, why should you be too modest?"Just ask the husband to go in and see his son-in-law, and rely on his wisdom to relieve his worries.

So Jia Rong went in together.When I arrived at Jia Rong's room, I met Mrs. Qin and said to Jia Rong, "Is this Mrs. Zun?"Jia Rong said: Exactly.Sir, please sit down, how about letting me talk about my illness and then check the pulse?Mr. Na said: "According to my younger brother, it is true to see the pulse first."I'm the first to build Zunfu, so I don't know anything about it, but our Uncle Feng must ask the younger brother to come and have a look, so the younger brother has to come.Now look at the pulse, see if what the younger brother said is correct, and then tell me about the condition of the illness these days, everyone thinks about a prescription, whether it can be used or not, then the uncle will decide.Jia Rong said: "Mr. is really clever, and now I hate to see you so late."Just ask Mr. to take a look at the pulse, whether it can be cured or not, so as to reassure the parents.So the daughters-in-law of the family held big welcoming pillows and pulled Qin's cuffs to show his pulse.Mr. Fang stretched out his hand to press on the veins of his right hand, adjusted his breath to a count, calmed down and examined carefully for half a quarter, then switched to his left hand, and it was the same.After diagnosing the pulse, he said, "Let's sit outside." So Jia Rong and her husband sat down on the bed in the outer room, and a woman brought tea.Jia Rong said: "Sir, please have tea."So I had tea with my husband, and then asked: "Look at this pulse, sir, can it be cured?"The gentleman said: I can see the pulse of the respected lady: the left inch is heavy, the left pass is sinking; the right inch is thin and weak, and the right pass is needy but without spirit.If the left cun is heavy, it means that the heart qi is deficient and fires;If the right inch is thin and weak, it means that the qi in the lung meridian is too deficient; if the right pass is needed but there is no spirit, it means that the spleen soil is restrained by liver wood.People with heart-qi deficiency and burning fire should experience irregular menstruation and insomnia at night.Liver blood deficiency and qi stagnation will inevitably cause pain and swelling under the ribs, the monthly letter will expire, and the heart will be hot.People with too little qi in the lung meridian will experience dizziness from time to time, and spontaneous sweating between Yin and Mao, as if in a boat.People whose spleen soil is restrained by liver wood will inevitably not think about eating, mental fatigue, and limbs are sore and limp.According to my pulse, there should be these symptoms.Or take this pulse as the happy pulse, the younger brother would not dare to teach it.A woman who waited next to her said, "Isn't that the case."What Mr. Zhen said is like a god, we don’t need to tell.Now there are several imperial physicians in our family who are watching, and they can't really say that.One said it was joy, another said it was a disease, this one said it was irrelevant, and that one said it was fear of the winter solstice, there was no way to tell.I beg the master to understand the instructions.The gentleman said with a smile: "Grandma's symptom is delayed by those people."If you treat it with medicine on the day of the first menstruation, not only will there be no problems today, but it will be completely cured at this time.Now that the disease has been delayed to this position, it is also due to this disaster.In my opinion, there are three ways to cure this disease.After taking my medicine, if I can fall asleep at night, then I will be able to add two points to my skills.According to my pulse, Grandma is a person with a strong mind and a smart mind. If you are too smart, you will often have unsatisfactory things; if you often have bad things, you will think too much.This disease is caused by worrying and hurting the spleen, excessive liver wood, and menstrual blood can not come on time.Ask Grandma about her menstrual days in the past, and it is definitely not that she often shrinks, but must always be long.Yes or no?The woman replied: No, it has never shrunk, or it has lasted for two days, three days, or even ten days.After hearing this, the husband said: Wonderful!This is the source of the disease.In the past, if you could take it with the medicine of nourishing the heart and regulating the menstrual flow, why did you end up here.This is now clearly a symptom of water loss and wood prosperity.Wait for the medicine to see.So I wrote a prescription and handed it to Jia Rong, which read: Nourishing Qi, Nourishing Spleen and Liver Decoction Ginseng two coins.Atractylodes two money, soil fried.Yunling three coins.Rehmannia four money.Return to the body for two money, wash with wine.Radix Paeoniae Alba 2 cents, fried.Chuanxiong Qianban.Astragalus three coins.Two qian of Cyperus cyperi, Bupleurum bupleurum for vinegar making eight cents.Chinese yam two money, fried.Real donkey-hide gelatin for two dollars, clam powder fried.Yanhu asks for half of the money, and the wine is fried.Roast licorice eight points.Quote Jianlianzi seven capsules, remove the heart.Two red dates. Jia Rong looked at it and said: Very clever.I also want to ask my husband, is there any harm between this disease and the end of life?The gentleman laughed and said: "Uncle is the most brilliant person."It is not an overnight symptom for a person to get to this level of illness, and it depends on the doctor's fate after taking this medicine.In my opinion, this winter is irrelevant.Always after the vernal equinox, it is expected to be fully healed.Jia Rong is also a smart person, so he didn't ask further questions. So Jia Rong sent her husband there, and Fang showed Jia Zhen all the prescriptions and pulse cases, and returned what she said to Jia Zhen and Youshi.You Shi said to Jia Zhen: "The doctor has never been as happy as he said, and the medicine he used must be good."Jia Zhen said: "He is not a person who is used to practicing medicine for a long time.Because Feng Ziying is good to us, he finally begged him to come.With this person, the daughter-in-law's illness may be cured.There is ginseng in his prescription, so just use the one catty you bought the day before yesterday.After Jia Rong finished listening, Fang came out and asked someone to make some medicine to decoct it for Mrs. Qin.I don't know how Qin's condition will be after taking this medicine, and I will break it down next time.
