Chapter 411 Health
The snow dust is vast, like flying catkins in the idle garden, falling down.
Gu Jinzhi took a carriage and arrived at the Xiping Hou Mansion.
My uncle was named the Marquis of Xiping in his early years. It was not until my grandfather took the ward off the ward that he chose another residence and built the current house.
Gu Jinzhi's carriage stopped at the gate.
The snow was swaying, but the door was cleaned up, and several servants were busy.
Outside the gate, two majestic stone lions stood quietly, cold and gloomy, but not stained with dust.
The vermilion pillars support the eaves of the doors and are bright in color, indicating the prosperity of the owner's home.
The door under the eaves is brand new in color, and the golden door cymbals are upside down, and there is a dazzling light.
Gu Jinzhi's carriage stopped, and the maid who accompanied her held an umbrella for her.
Several carriages have already been docked at the door.
There are endless people coming to greet my uncle.
The servants who welcomed and saw off at the door were all dressed in silk and tidy.
Gu Jinzhi's guards came forward to report their identity, and the servants came forward and asked Gu Jinzhi to invite him. The servants at the second door had already gone in to report to the eldest lady and the eldest grandma Lin Manjing.
All the way from the gate to the Chuanhuamen, there are always women sweeping the snow.
Some guests are in and out.
Gu Jinzhi didn't know the people who came and went, but just nodded slightly and smiled.
The same is true for guests.
Gu Jinzhi slowly walked in from the maid who was accompanying him.
When Gu Jinzhi walked to the gate of Chuanhua, the eldest lady and the eldest grandma had already arrived.
After not seeing each other for a few years, we suddenly met again. Everyone was a little unfamiliar with each other's eyebrows and eyes.
Gu Jinzhi saluted the eldest lady first.
The eldest grandma wanted to salute Gu Jinzhi, but was quickly supported by Gu Jinzhi and smiled and said, "This is home. When I go home, I am the aunt of the Gu family. As long as my sister-in-law salutes her sister-in-law, there is no reason to receive her sister-in-law's gift.
Sister-in-law, please don't do this..."
She finished speaking quickly and before the big grandma could react, she squatted and gave a blessing to the big grandma.
The eldest lady helped Gu Jinzhi up and smiled and said, "Sister Jin is still doing this. She is polite. Instead, she said that others are unfamiliar, just like when she was a child..."
Gu Jinzhi smiled.
The group went to the main courtyard of the eldest lady.
The eldest lady and the big grandma both have a little plump and have a fair face. The lines of time are not obvious. It seems that in recent years, time has not been passed by them, and they still maintain their young and smooth skin...
Gu Jinzhi looked at it and felt happy.
She was happy when her family was having a good life.
The east room in the upper room is burning with a ground dragon, warm as spring.
A pot of wintersweet is sent in the corner of the wall, and the faint fragrance is secretly given.
There are several little girls waiting there in the East Room of the eldest lady’s living and banquet.
When they came in, the children stood up.
Gu Jinzhi looked at them in surprise.
The girl in the lead looks like an eleven or twelve-year-old, half-aged girl, tall, wearing a silver-red kesi long jacket. She combed her bun, her eyes were like ink-colored gems. She was circulating with a dazzling light, and she hid back a little shyly.
, but he still secretly looked at Gu Jinzhi.
She looks very much like her big grandmother Lin Manjing.
The other three children look like three or four years old.
Gu Jinzhi and the eldest wife sat down, and the eldest sister-in-law helped to bring the tea and introduced these girls to Gu Jinzhi: "This is Sister Xi, this is Sister Yu..."
These four girls are all the daughters of their sister-in-law.
When Gu Jinzhi was still in the capital, Xijie'er and Yijie'er were already born. In the next seven years, the eldest grandmother gave birth to three daughters for Gu Chenzhi, a total of five daughters.
The youngest one is only eighteen months old and I didn't bring it.
The eldest brother Gu Xi is more than one year older than Gu Jinzhi's two twin brothers, and she is already twelve years old this year. She has developed and looks like a big girl, graceful and beautiful.
She was a little shy and not sophisticated enough, but she retained the innocence of the little girl. Gu Jinzhi looked very fond of her.
After the big grandma introduced her, sisters Gu Xi smiled shyly and did not dare to talk to Gu Jinzhi on their own initiative.
The big grandmother asked Gu Xi: "Do you still remember Aunt Seven?"
Sister Xi smiled shyly and called Qigu again in a low voice, saying that she remembered it.
Gu Jinzhi took four purses from his arms and gave them to the children.
The children picked up the purse and thanked Gu Jinzhi one after another, which was very polite.
The big grandma asked the children to go out: "Take your sisters back, and go to the seventh aunt's house to play next time you have time..."
Gu Xidao said, hold the fourth brother in his hand and carry it
The room suddenly became much empty.
Gu Jinzhi said to the eldest lady: "...Looking at your complexion, it's better than when I left Beijing."
The eldest lady smiled and said, "Your brother opened a medicine shop by himself. He often made some nourishing medicinal tea for us. He asked your sister-in-law and I to drink it every day. We haven't stopped over the years. We have a better complexion and relaxed.
Thai."
Gu Jinzhi glanced at his sister-in-law.
My sister-in-law has a good complexion, her skin is white and red, and it can be broken. She applies a little thin powder and the color is very bright.
Gu Jinzhi smiled and asked his elder brother: "Brother is not at home today? How is his medicine shop now?"
"Where is he free at home? He took half of the inner court worship, and most of the medicines in the palace were supplied by him." The eldest lady smiled, "Your uncle disliked him as a low-level business and always asked him to shut down the shop.
It was the Empress Dowager who issued an imperial edict saying that the Gu family's medicine was the best. Her illness only took Gu family's medicine, and then it was prescribed today. If it weren't for the court's worship, our family wouldn't have been demolished enough for your elder brother to defeat him.
....”
"Brother is prodigal?" Gu Jinzhi smiled, "This yamen in Beijing is the best-in-class brother. How can I say prodigal? I feel wronged for my elder brother..."
"You don't know why here." The eldest lady smiled. Although Gu Chenzhi was defeated, he was very pleased and proud in his tone. "As long as his shop is poor, he doesn't need other people's medical treatment.
Not to mention that he was exempted from the medical expenses, he gave the poor medicine. Seeing that the people's livelihood was difficult, he still had a subsidy of money. There was no profit for the whole year. If it weren't for the input of the palace, the demolition of the family would not be enough for him to lose.
. People say that the palace worship was a lot of money, and when it came to his hands, it was all gone.
He took half of the offerings in the palace and Qin Shensi took half of it. The Qin family made a lot of money, prescribed several dividends, and gave medicine to the poor. However, it was just dispensed once a month, which was more popular than your elder brother.
.
That's what others say is to have achievements.
Your elder brother is a loser..."
As he said that, the eldest lady smiled first.
The big grandma laughed too.
Gu Jinzhi knew from their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's attitude that their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law agreed with Gu Chenzhi's behavior. He said that his elder brother was promiscuous and was very proud.
The palace worship is very profitable every year, and it is a huge profit.
Gu Chenzhi didn't want to make a profit, so he gave it out.
Gu Jinzhi remembered that he talked about his ideals in his early years. He did not want to be prosperous and wealthy, but only wanted to have a small medicine shop on the streets or alleys. If the poor and old farmer took medicine, he would not collect medical funds to relieve people's suffering.
His ideal has been realized now, right?
"Brother has the ambition of a great doctor." Gu Jinzhi sighed, "If my grandfather knew about it under the spring, he would be relieved. The Gu family's medicine has been passed down from generation to generation, and it will become famous all over the world in the hands of my elder brother."
This is true. Gu Jinzhi remembers that in the Gu family genealogy in later generations, Gu Ling was originally named all over the world and carried forward the Gu family lineage.
Gu Jinzhi thought that this was probably the beginning of the elder brother’s reputation accumulation?
"Why is it famous all over the world?" The eldest lady was happy after hearing this. She was still modest, "It's just a poor and generous. Now your uncle is in court. You can live a salary at home, and let him spend money like this. Outsiders don't know
Who doesn't say he is a fool? His sillyness has penetrated the eyes of the Empress Dowager."
Gu Jinzhi smiled.
It turned out that the Empress Dowager was the backing of Gu Chenzhi.
"...I've had dinner here at noon, and I've sent someone to call your elder brother and ask him to come back. Since you came to Beijing, he has also said several times." The eldest lady did not boast about Gu Chenzhi too much, and the topic was stopped after a brief taste.
, let’s talk about keeping Gu Jinzhi for meals.
Gu Jinzhi also wants to meet his elder brother.
