Chapter Twelve: Time

Mrs. Yu and Aunt Lan couldn't help but laugh at this sentence. At this time, the maid served the rice and the couple sat down to eat. Aunt Lan set a table on the floor, picked up a few dishes, and asked her to sit in the small table.

Eat on the skewers, while the maids wait on you.

After dinner, we chatted again, and the whole family went to rest without mentioning it.

The next day, Ning Xianbi got up early and went with Mrs. Yu to greet Mrs. Jiang. Then, after informing Ms. Yu, she went to the third old lady. This time she did not learn medicinal materials from him.

, in fact, because there were only a dozen of them, and they were explained thoroughly yesterday. It happened that Ning Derong was reading a medical book. Seeing that Ning Xianbi was smart, he smiled and said: "Come on, come on, grandpa will teach you how to recognize it today."

Zi'er, um, should we start with the Three-Character Classic or the Thousand-Character Classic?"

Ning Xianbi swayed, tears almost rolling out of her eyes. Seeing Ning Derong turn back to look for the Three-Character Sutra on the bookshelf, she hit her head against the wall in her heart and howled loudly, "Let me die."

*******************************

Spring goes and autumn comes, and in the blink of an eye, three years pass by in a hurry.

In the past three years, Ning Xianbi went to Xinglin Garden almost every day, followed Ning Derong in reading and reading, picked common medicinal materials in the garden, learned some acupuncture points, and learned some medical skills. Her life was extremely fulfilling.

Originally, Ning Derong thought of living here for a few months, dealing with the care and concern of his eldest sister-in-law, and then still going out to practice medicine. Unexpectedly, there was a little girl like Ning Xianbi, who made the old man like her in every possible way. Naturally,

As a result, my desire to go out to practice medicine has faded a lot.

Mrs. Jiang was also happy that Ning Xianbi followed Ning Derong every day, which brought the poor third brother closer to the Earl's Mansion.

Seeing that the old lady liked him, several other boys and girls also went there a few times, but they didn't really want to get close to the third grandfather, so how could they listen to the medical knowledge? Ning Derong also knew it in his heart.

Very well, it didn’t show on his face, he just smiled and talked to them about the effects of long needles and short needles, and the medicinal properties of medicinal materials. How could those children have the patience to listen to this? Within a few days, they never came again.

Already.

In this way, the old and the young were clean. Seeing that spring was about to begin after the New Year, Ning Xianbi was already seven years old. Ning Derong saw that she was really talented in medicine, so he happily said: "When spring begins,

Now, everything is coming back to life. Third Grandpa takes peonies to the wild mountains to collect herbs and see how many you can collect. How about we compete then? "

As soon as Ning Xianbi heard that she could go out to cook food, she couldn't help but jump up high. Before she could fall down, she saw Granny Liao's face that was longer than a donkey, and then she realized that she had really got carried away with her pride.

, couldn't help but stick out his tongue quickly, Ning Derong also made a face at her, and both the grandfather and grandson laughed at the same time.

After returning from Xinglin Garden that day, Grandma Liao went to Mrs. Yu's side and reported faithfully: "Madam, it's not the old slave who said anything about the third old master behind his back. This... now that the sixth girl is getting older, it's time to reason.

Don't go to Xinglin Garden, it's time to learn how to become a knitting girl, but the third old man actually said that spring is about to begin and he will take Miss Six outside to collect herbs."

Mrs. Yu frowned and asked in a deep voice: "What did the girl say?'

Aunt Liao smiled and said: "What can I say, girl? I'm so happy that I'm so happy. But I think this is really inappropriate, so I have to come and tell my wife."

Mrs. Yu sighed and said: "What's the use of telling me? Can you see if I can be the owner of peony? The master here pampers her, the old lady over there spoils her. Even if I don't let her go now, I still have her."

Be obedient."

Grandma Liao also knew about this situation, but for such a big matter, she would never dare to let the Third Old Man and the Sixth Girl do anything in vain. Now that she has told Mrs. Yu, even if she can't stop it, it doesn't matter.

Even though I was thinking like this, I just thought that if the girl continued like this, her reputation would be damaged, so I felt uneasy again, so I whispered: "Although the girl may not listen to what the lady says, the old lady is still a sensible person. The lady will tell this matter

Report it to us and let's see how the old lady makes her decision. Won't she feel at ease?'

Mrs. Yu thought for a while and couldn't help but nodded and smiled: "That's the truth. The old lady is the most sensible. Although she likes Shaoyao to be close to the third old lady, it is not so easy to agree to going out. I will meet you tomorrow.

she says."

Because the plan had been decided, Ning Xianbi came to Fushou Hall early the next day. Just when Yingge came out of the house, when he saw them, he smiled and said: "Hey, the third wife and the sixth girl came early today.

." He turned around and asked the little girl to open the curtain.

Mrs. Jiang had just finished washing herself. When she heard that her daughter-in-law and granddaughter were coming, she couldn't help but feel a little strange. She smiled and said to Aunt Zhao next to her: "There must be something going on, otherwise I wouldn't have come so early." After saying that, she said.

Xing and Xia Lian hurriedly helped her out of the inner room and sat down on the Arhat bed in the outer room. Then they saw Mrs. Yu and Ning Xianbi come out from behind the screen and respectfully saluted her.

Mrs. Jiang smiled and said: "As the saying goes, if you don't have any advantage, you can't be early. You two came so early and almost trapped my old lady in bed. What are you doing for?"

Mrs. Yu's face turned red after saying this, and she glanced at her daughter beside her. After a long while, she whispered: "My daughter-in-law has something to ask the old lady for advice. Now Shaoyao is practicing calligraphy and reading with the old lady. My daughter-in-law is very grateful, but

...I heard that the old lady will take the peonies outside to collect herbs after spring begins. This... my daughter-in-law does not dare to be independent, so she came here to ask the old lady for instructions."

Mrs. Jiang frowned and said softly: "Really? He wants to take peony to collect medicine? Alas! After all, he has not been in the house since he was a child, and he is getting old. This decision is really stupid..." No.

After finishing speaking, Ning Xianbi stepped forward and knelt down, saying softly: "Didn't our ancestors let Shaoyao learn and play with Third Grandpa? But Shaoyao likes to learn that knowledge with Third Grandpa."

Mrs. Jiang saw her big eyes filled with tears. She thought that her third brother had been lonely all his life, and now it was so easy to have such a little girl to be close to him. Wouldn't it be like a granddaughter? He was no better than himself, and his grandsons, daughters, and sons.

Next to him, there is only one Ning Xianbi Cheng Huan. If even this is not allowed, not only will the granddaughter feel uncomfortable, but will the old man, the third brother, feel lonely?

Thinking of this, he sighed, looked at Ning Xianbi and said, "You have been together with Third Grandpa for three years, right? What have you learned? Tell grandma."

Ning Xianbi knew that this was her only chance. What she had always feared most was that her family would use her age as an excuse to not allow her to go to Xinglin Garden to learn those things, and all her plans would be in vain.
