Offering medicine 2
Hearing this, Su Shi's face changed. This Xuanhuang Linglong ginseng was a tool she intended to use to show her goodwill to the royal family. How could an irrelevant young lady in her family compare with the interests of the whole family? She knew that the sickly Consort Liu was in great favour and had a royal son, so it was not impossible that she would take the most prestigious position in the future. If the Emperor were to offer the Xuanhuang Linglong Ginseng to save Consort Liu's life, the Emperor would definitely credit the Nangong family and the Nangong family's status would rise.
Nangong Yue naturally saw her grandmother's thoughts, the corners of her mouth slightly hooked at an angle invisible to the crowd, her heart mocking as she suddenly took a step forward and smiled graciously, saying: "Thank you, Eldest Uncle.
Yue'er is already fine now and don't need xuanhuang Linglong ginseng. Liu Fei Niangniang
has been ill for a long time and will need Xuanhuang Linglong ginseng more
than Yue’er. " In her previous life, she had been devastated by her brother's drowning and her illness had worsened, so her grandmother had no choice but to return the Xuanhuang Linglong Ginseng to her mother and let her take it.
Only then did Su Shi's face look a little better. She looked at Nangong Yue with a bit of affection in her eyes, thinking that this granddaughter had become much more intelligent and coquettish after a serious illness.
Since Nangong Yue said so, Nangong Qin was no longer pressured.
After tossing and turning for most of the day, all the people said goodbye to Su Shi and dispersed one by one, seemingly calmly but with their own thoughts in mind.
**********
From Rongan hall, Nangong Yue and her parents went to Lin shi's
Qianyun courtyard to visit Nangong Xin.
Nangong Xin is 11 years old now. Originally he should have
moved to the outer courtyard for a long time. However, because he is mentally
deficient, Lin Shi is not at ease with him. So Su shi lets Lin shi
keep him in the wing room of the Qianyun courtyard with one eye
closed.
Nangong Yue and three people entering the wing room, caused
a great reaction from Nangong Xin.
“Mother, Father, Meimei, You all come back!” The
youngster had changed into a new moon white dress and his hair was neatly
combed. The jade like face is inlaid with a pair of big black and white eyes.
The pupil of his eyes as black as a dotted of ink. They are bright and pure, looking at Nangong Yue and three people with a carefree smile on his mouth.
He seems to have completely forgotten that he had walked in front of the ghost
gate.
He seems so handsome that when he doesn't speak, you can't tell there's anything wrong with him at all. However, as soon as he opens his mouth, he reveals a childishness so strong that it makes the heart sigh.
Every time Lin Shi saw such an eldest son, she would feel heartache. He used to be such a smart child. He read thousands of words at the age of three, recited ancient poems at the age of four and read Four books(Confucius classics) at the age of five…. Even when the father-in-law Nangong Hao was alive, he said that Xin Ge'er was a rare genius in the family for a hundred years. He would have been a great minister in the future. However, when he was five years old, unexpectedly suffered that kind of tragedy!
Since then, Lin shi has been regretting that she didn't take good care of her Xin Ge’er every day. She always held onto the of hope that one day, her father could find a way to cure Xin Ge'er and make him recover. Even if she had to lose her life, she would be willing to do it!
“Xin Ge'er!”
In a moment of emotion, Lin Shi hugged her son tightly, only to have him push her away in disgust: "Mother, I'm too old for you to hug me like this!"
"Well, my mother won't hug you! Our Xin Ge'er
has grown up.” Lin Shi between laughter and tears let him go.
Nangong Xin slumped and looked at Nangong Yue with a grieved
expression, "Meimei, why didn't you come to see me? I've been waiting
for you for a long, long, long time..." He seemed to be afraid that
Nangong Yue would not be able to understand, his two arms opened wide.
Nangong Yue's eyes turned red. She was about to say
something, but she was snatched to the front by Lin shi:" Xin Ge'er
, did you forget that mother told you? meimei is ill. She needs rest."
