Chapter 14 Bad Premonition(1/2)
Qin Mansion.
It was late in spring and the sun was warm, so the doctor told Mrs. Qin that it was best to get some sunshine every day.
It was bright in the morning, and the sun was too strong at noon. Mrs. Qin would probably bask in the sun for two or three quarters of an hour in the back garden before sunset.
Today is no exception, and a crabapple in the backyard is blooming, and the branches are full of bustle. It is really beautiful and dazzling. When the gentle breeze blows, people are intoxicated by the fragrance of the flowers.
In the spring breeze and the fragrance of flowers, Mrs. Qin's mood relaxed a lot.
She chatted with the maid Xiao Yun all the time.
Xiao Yun from the inner courtyard and Huang Ling from the outer courtyard have both been maids in the Qin Mansion for many years. When they were both ten years old, neither of them wanted to get married, so they swore to stay in the mansion as servants. It was Mrs. Qin and Qin Guanzhong who
The two most capable people around a husband and wife.
Mrs. Qin didn't have many taboos against Xiao Yun and whispered about the past.
"At that time, you had just entered the mansion and served me. I was still young at that time and did not have Si Jin. That year, I followed the master to the capital to pay a visit to the palace. When I saw Wan Ying for the first time, I somehow felt a sense of
The meaning of closeness. I had just entered the capital and was not acclimated to the climate. The doctor prescribed medicine but it did not work for three days. When Wan Ying found out, she actually gave me a prescription on the spot. I thought it was her own house. Later,
It took me only two days to get better. After asking again, I found out that Wanying is actually a palace maid who specializes in medicinal foods. What she gave me was a good recipe from the palace, which no one else can use."
As she spoke, she took out an old piece of yellowed paper from the pages of the book. The flexible and powerful handwriting on the paper became slightly blurred with the passage of time.
"If I hadn't been going through the old books in the library today, I would have forgotten this recipe. Picking it up now is like picking up a pearl on the beach."
Mrs. Qin's eyes curled up slightly and she smiled. Looking at the handwriting on the old paper, she spoke a lot more.
Xiao Yun listened and helped her walk slowly along the garden path.
"You told me about this before. It's a pity that I was young and was just a little maid, so I didn't get to meet Aunt Wanying. But my aunt was well-known in the capital. Before she was released from the palace, there were many people.
Waiting."
Mrs. Qin laughed and said, "She is good at making herbal medicines, and the nobles in the palace value her. Why don't those people want to marry such a woman? It doesn't matter if she is older. After all, she has the ability."
But as she spoke, her eyes gradually showed melancholy.
"It's a pity that after that, I don't know where she lived and how she lived. Is she still wandering around the world?"
Xiao Yun saw that Mrs. Qin's mood dropped after thinking about this, and she quickly prepared to find a way to cover it up.
For Mrs. Qin, the most important thing is to meditate and recuperate.
But before she spoke, Mrs. Qin suddenly raised her finger and pointed at the stone slab in front of her.
"Whose thick book was left there? Bring it over and let me take a look."
Xiao Yun walked over quickly.
She also wondered why there was such a thick book here, but when she saw the thick book, she was stunned for a moment.
It’s actually a medicinal diet recipe?
In a daze, Mrs. Qin walked over slowly.
"What is it?"
Xiao Yun subconsciously felt something was wrong, and it was too late to hide it. Mrs. Qin also saw the words on the page.
"Whose medicinal recipe is this? Or is it such a thick manuscript?"
Mrs. Qin took it over and flipped through a few pages, but the more she flipped through, the more uncomfortable she looked. Then she took out the old prescription and compared it with her own in the book. After flipping back and forth, her hands were shaking so much that she could hardly hold it.
Stay in that book.
"whose book is this?!"
Xiao Yun didn't know either, but she saw the woman in charge of flowers and trees hiding behind a tree in the distance chatting with others.
She raised her hand and called the person over.
The woman saluted quickly, and Xiao Yun asked her directly.
"Can you tell who came here? He actually dropped a book here?"
The old lady even said that because my wife came here every day, no one was allowed in the garden in the afternoon.
She said no one came. As she said this, she couldn't help but look at the book and suddenly thought of something.
"My slave, I heard that someone lost a thick book."
"Who is it?" Mrs. Qin asked.
The woman's face looked strange for a moment, but she still told the truth.
"The people from Chao Yunxuan were looking for books just now. They said that a thick medicinal diet recipe belonging to the girl was lost."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Qin's feet stopped.
Her expression suddenly changed. She looked at the medicinal recipe for a while, and then looked in the direction of Chao Yunxuan.
"Madam?!" Xiao Yun was surprised.
But Mrs. Qin waved her hand towards her.
"Go, invite the girl to come to the main courtyard."
*
Chaoyunxuan.
Qin Tian's book can't be found anywhere.
"Could it have been stolen by someone who came to repair the roof?" Qin Tian frowned.
Tiandong thought it was impossible, "They don't have the guts, do they?"
Su Ye said that he had also asked, "They all said they had never seen it."
So where could such a thick book end up?
When I was at my wits' end, someone suddenly came to the main courtyard.
Qin Tian has been in the Qin Mansion for so many years, and has almost no interaction with anyone in the main courtyard.
The person who came saw Qin Tian and said:
"Girl, madam, please go to the main courtyard."
Su Ye, Tiandong are all surprised.
Qin Tian's eyelids jumped, but her aunt wanted to see her for the first time, so she had no reason to refuse. She immediately changed her clothes and hurried to the main courtyard.
The last time Qin Tian came to the main courtyard was the day he first entered the mansion. He just kowtowed in the courtyard and then went to Chaoyunxuan.
Today the maid closed the curtain of the upper room and said, "Girl, please."
Qin Tian lowered his head slightly and entered Mrs. Qin's upper room.
The upper room in the main courtyard is wide and tall, but the medicinal energy that has been stagnated in it for a long time has not dissipated, making it so bitter that it makes people feel breathless.
Qin Tian abided by the rules, but as soon as she came in, she felt the eyes directly on her face.
She didn't dare to be rude and gave Mrs. Qin a big bow in a serious manner.
But for some reason, Mrs. Qin didn't speak, and the skirt hanging in Qin Tian's eyes trembled slightly.
Of course, it was also the first time for Mrs. Qin to see Qin Tian.
But when she looked at the girl's appearance, Qin Guanzhong's appearance when he was young suddenly appeared before her eyes.
The facial expressions and expressions are indescribably similar to those in my memory.
Mrs. Qin's voice trembled and became hoarse, "It's so similar."
She couldn't help but murmur.
This must be the husband's daughter, but who is the biological mother of this child?
Mrs. Qin suppressed her heart pounding and took out the thick medicinal diet recipe.
"Is this the book you lost? Where did you come from?"
Qin Tian looked up and saw the medicinal diet recipe he had suddenly lost in Mrs. Qin's hand.
A bad premonition went straight to Tian Ling Gai.
"Madam, it's my book." She subconsciously only replied to the previous question.
But Mrs. Qin asked again.
"You don't have to be afraid, just tell the truth," she changed her question, "Do you know who wrote this book?"
Mrs. Qin's concern about this question made Qin Tian even more uneasy, but she couldn't help but answer after repeated questions.
She looked at the medicinal diet book and then at Mrs. Qin. She hesitated several times, but finally told the truth.
"It was written to me by my biological mother."
"Your biological mother." Mrs. Qin's whole body started to tremble, her eyes were wide open, and there were no words left.
The fragrance of the medicine in the upper room becomes stronger and stronger, rushing through the airtight room, suppressing people in it.
