Chapter 247 – Testing the Old Furen
“Hey, don’t mention it, I don’t know where to put this old face. Jinyu, why don’t you say a few words about me, it’s better for me to suffer if I am not strict in teaching my son.”
“Biaosao, what are you talking about? Young people are young and vigorous, and it is inevitable that they will have some affair. Important is solution. Although that child Qiaojie is a slave girl, she is a first-class talented in our General’s Mansion, and is much better than the young lady of that small family. I wonder how Biaosao plans to handle this matter?”
“We will marry Qiaojie, only she can’t be the main wife. Not to mention that she is a maid, even if she is a young lady of anyone’s family, when something like this happens,she can’t be the main wife. As for the betrothal gift, I don’t know if the General’s Mansion has any requirements?” Fang Shi hated it in her heart but also no way, her son did this kind of thing, if not responsible, it would be even more embarrassing.
“How can there be a request? According to reason, she just maid shouldn’t even need me to step forward. I personally came forward only because you are my Biaosao and Zhihua is also a nephew. Our actions cannot fall into other people’s gossips, isn’t it? As for betrothal gift, do as you wish.” Lian Jinyu’s words carry a bit of a sting.
Fang Shi didn’t hear it.
Qiaojie had a blessing in disguise. In any case, she as a maid will become a concubine sooner or later. This Young Master Shen was also a young man in the end.
An Yanran’s expression was very ghastly. Although no one said anything, Qiaojie also served her and her mother. This kind of thing happened, fortunately, it was resolved satisfactorily in the end.
After this incident, Shen Zhihua was quiet for a long time, so quiet that people forget that the General Mansion and his guest.
Qiaojie and him are very sweet to each other, serving in the morning and evening, beautiful woman accommodate at study, and the tea and water are served. They are like other newlyweds, and they are very harmonious.
The more Fang Shi saw them get along, the more angry she became. This stupid son doesn’t know which one is a treasure and which one is a brick?
At dinner time, Fang Shi dragged her illness and did not go to eat. Other people are still there.
Shen Zhiyun is a guest, so she is also there.
The old Furen’s health is also not very good recently. So she just sat there and someone served to feed her.
An Qingran looked at her demeanor and felt very opinionated. Even if Empress had that kind of health problems but she still didn’t let anyone feed her. She still did it by herself. Perhaps that even the Empress dowager would not be more manner than her.
What is she fighting for?
Is it relying on her fifth-grade son?
She actually poisoned her own grandson, she couldn’t always expect her father to do anything, right?
Now her father was still in the dark, and she was the only one who knew her true nature.
What should she do?
She didn’t think of a good way, but the old Furen said: “Qingran, you stay after the meal, help me see, my chest has been very stuffy.”
An Qingran nodded naturally, just not better than before.
Lian Jinyu saw in it her eyes and understood in her heart that her own daughter was the most measured. Apparently, she also has a problem with this grandmother because of what happened with the Shen family.
In fact, the situation is much more serious than this.
An Qingran stayed place her hand on the old Furen’s pulse, listened for long before speaking: “Grandma’s health is not a problem, just a little stagnant diet, just need to exercise more can be solved ……”
The old Furen heard: “You mean the chest congestion is just from eating too much and staying?”

“Yes.” An Qingran looked at her displeased gaze with a clear face.
The old Furen looked at her with scrutiny, and finally she sighed: “You child, I thought you were a slick, but I didn’t think you could be a straightforward good child. Grandma likes it.”
“Thank you, grandma.” An Qingran said as she got up: “Grandma should now walk around the house a few dozen times before going to bed. Since there is nothing else Qingran want to go and see my younger brother. Mingchen can smile now, he smiles when he sees me. If he doesn’t see me at night, he will look for me. Grandma, do you think he is amusing?”
The old Furen nodded: amusing “, children are naturally amusing.”
“Fortunately, the last time he escaped from the disaster, I dare not relax my vigilance anymore. For those who hurt Mingchen, I will find her to settle accounts sooner or later…” An Qingran smiled viciously.
The old Furen smiled faintly: “yes, it’s just that your Biaogu has already left. You are not going to look for her, are you?”
An Qingran smiled: “It’s hard to tell …”
After that, she turned and left.
The old Furen just let out a long breath. What was going on, this An Qingran was only thirteen years old, how could she have such frightening eyes that seemed to see into your heart, sending chills straight down her back.
Doesn’t she know something?
Did she mean something by that?
The old Furen barely slept at during the night because she was overthinking about this matter. Next morning she really got sick with a cold nose and headache. Chu Shi wanted to go and get An Qingran to look at her, but she wouldn’t let her and asked someone to find the doctor of the mansion.
Chu Shi was very puzzled.
The atmosphere in the house is very discordant, and everyone has their own thoughts.
Especially Lian Jinrong, seeing that An Qingran was still fine and growing up in the Dongnuange all day. Their three of mother and children were talking and laughing and having a good time. Looking at them happy, she felt like a knife in her heart.
At that very moment, the atmosphere in the General’s residence suddenly became heavy. Because of the rumours of a plague in the village outside the capital, which was likely to spread to the city. All families and each households made preparations earlier. An Qingran immediately took herbs for epidemic prevention and scattered everywhere, and smoked the moxa several times in the morning and evening. She remembered, In the last life this plague also came very suddenly and eventually spread into the capital. But it was a miracle that their General’s Mansion was fine and not a single person has been infected.
The disinfection and epidemic prevention measures in the capital did not lag behind either. Lime sprinkled everywhere and the capital magistrate sending people to disinfect every house. Various physique-enhancing drugs have been sold out. In order to prevent riots and chaos, there are large groups of soldiers patrolling the streets day and night.

Every time An Zhongtao came back from the court, he sighed. The Emperor was very worried about the plague. Imperial doctors were working day and night to develop medicines, but they were not effective for a while. Therefore, every time the court mentioned the current situation emperor’s face would be furious. At this time, he had nowhere to use his skills.
We had to let the people in the mansion avoid going out and do all the activities, and all the meals were reduced. The meals for the day were only distributed to the kitchenette and no one ate together. Those ingredients are the smallest amount, and if they are wasted, they are gone. The supply is divided once a day.
The old Furen who was surrounded by people suddenly become alone made her uncomfortable. But there was nothing she could do about it, she was also afraid of being infected.
Lian Jinyu spends most of her day dealing with how to distribute the ingredients. Fortunately, the rice grains in the mansion are still enough. There was a little private land in the mansion, and some fruits and vegetables were planted on it as if for fun. Now it comes in handy. But sometimes she couldn’t buy any more vegetables in a day, so she had to send some of her young and strong men out of town to collect vegetables, and sometimes she sent them to the mountains to dig up wild vegetables.
