Chapter 69 Blood Jade

Yan Hanyu, who can't do anything, made her very uncomfortable. She always likes to hold books in her hands, and even if she is sick, she must read a few words or sit and practice calligraphy.

But my aunt is too strict in her control.

She has been in a separate hospital since she was a child. Because no one was in charge, she took care of herself. Now she was suddenly arrested tightly, Hanyu was very uncomfortable, and she was a little scared every time she saw her aunt.

After raising her for a whole month, Hanyu finally recovered and was relieved. She picked up the book and reviewed the past.

During this period, she received a letter from Bianjing, which was from her grandfather. The letter said that she knew she was sick, so she specially sent her medicine to take care of her well, and then set off to rush forward when she was well. Her grandfather did not tell Lin about her illness, for fear that Lin would worry. Hanyu expressed her understanding, and was grateful to her grandfather for her actions, so she wrote a pen to reply to her letter and told her that she was safe.

There is Tuo River in the north of Hong County, Bian River in the south, and next to Mount Ai, full of mugwort. Therefore, Hong County has a very beautiful scenery, with green mountains and clear waters, simple folk customs, and quiet and far-reaching.

The inn where Hanyu lives is the most exquisite inn in Hongxian County. It has a very elegant name called Bishui Yunju Inn. It is located not far from the pier, facing the Bian River, with people coming and going, so the business is also good.

She lives on the second floor, and the window opens to the Bian River, the willow embankment, and the boat floats on the river. The green mountains are faintly hidden in the distance, especially when the sun sets in the west, the scenery allows her to see for half an hour until the sky is dark.

There is a medicine shop behind Bishui Yunju Inn. Hanyu was sick and caught medicine at his house. Mu Chenxiang knew medicine at the beginning. At first, she was also rushing the ducks to treat Hanyu, but because she was saving people, she naturally didn't dare to be negligent. The diagnosis was very meticulous. Later, she went to the medicine shop to catch medicine herself, and when she came back, she boiled the medicine herself. After a while, Mu Chenxiang met the family in the medicine shop.

On this day, a plump middle-aged woman with a begonia hair on her hair came, calling herself the number one matchmaker in Hong County. Everyone in Hong County called her Lai Madam and asked to see her.

Hanyu was puzzled, so why would the matchmaker want to see her? She was confused. She still invited her to come in and meet her.

Lai Madam had found out before coming. This was a lady from the official family from Bianjing. It seemed that because she was sick, she was recuperating in Hong County. It was unclear whether it was from a high-ranking official or a small-ranking official family. It was just that she, a commoner, respected the lady from the official family.

When Lai Madam saw Yan Hanyu, she immediately knew that this was a noble family. She thought she had seen countless people in Hong County, so she still had this look. Her pure face and facial features were not arranged in just the right way, with thin eyebrows. She was curved like a crescent moon, her eyes were like grape kernels, bright and energetic, and her delicate face was delicate. She looked cleaner than a white-faced steamed bun, and she couldn't even see a little mole.

Lai Madam smiled and bowed, "Hello, Miss, I'll treat you to the lady. The people in Hong County all called me Lai."

"I wonder what Madam Lai has to say to me?"

"The lady asked simply, and the civilian woman said it straightforwardly. Baicaotang on Hutong Road is the road behind Bishui Yunju. It was a medicine shop that has been opened in Hong County for three generations, practicing medicine from generation to generation, and has a wealthy family. Boss Wen is a man of human nature. Although his wife Bao Gu is not good-looking, he is also a kind person. Their son Wen Liangyi has just reached the age of 19 this year. He has fallen in love with the lady's girl. Now he heard that the lady is going to leave Hong County. Bao Gu then came to the civilian woman to propose marriage to the lady. If the lady is willing to let her go, they will redeem her for her, and money is not a problem."

Hanyu was surprised. Does the person who fell in love with her? Xiaoyaer? It’s not suitable to be young, and she is not yet at the age to get married.

Han Yugang was about to speak, and Mu Chenxiang and Lin Susu came in from outside.

"Why, Cao Cao is here, Cao Cao is here." Lai Madam smiled at Mu Chenxiang, the smile on her face was like the crabapple on her head.

Hanyu suddenly realized and smiled with a pursed lips.

It turned out that Wen Liangyi from Baicaotang fell in love with Mu Chenxiang and mistakenly thought Chenxiang for her maid, so she came to find her.

Lai Madam pulled Mu Chenxiang warmly and looked at him up and down, but the smile on his face did not diminish at all. "Miss, you have a good appearance and good figure. Your happy event has come."

Mu Chenxiang looked at Hanyu with confusion on her face. What was her happy event?

"Miss Lai misunderstood." Hanyu opened her lips lightly, "Aunt Chenxiang is not my maid, she is a good citizen, and I can't make decisions about her."

The smile on Lai Madam's face froze, "This, this..."

"Aunt Chenxiang, this is Lai, the first matchmaker in Hong County. She wants to be a matchmaker for you. The target is Baicaotang's gentleness." Hanyu said to Mu Chenxiang.

Mu Chenxiang's face turned red, and she didn't know if it was shameful or anxious, "I won't get married. I'm leaving tomorrow and will never come back."

Lai also let go of Mu Chenxiang, "What's the matter with the little lady Mu, and how can there be no girl who doesn't marry? Mu is a good person, but it's a good match with the boy from the Wen family. Bao Gu mistakenly thought that Mu was a maid, and he had an idea in his heart, but he had to be willing for his son. Now Bao Gu knows that Mu is a good person, so he has to be very happy!"

"What a heavenly marriage! If I don't marry, I won't marry. Go back quickly." Mu Chenxiang hurriedly asked her out.

Lai Madam looked back at Hanyu.

Han Yu said, "Aunt Chenxiang doesn't want to marry, so I can't do anything. Lai Madam, please go slowly."

After hearing this, Lai could not continue to force her to stay, so she had to leave. Before leaving, she continued, "Miss Mu, this is a good marriage, think about it carefully!"

Seeing this, Lin Susu pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, that gentle and kind-hearted are pretty good, so you can consider it."

But Mu Chenxiang was so anxious that she was about to jump off her feet and began to speak incoherently, "I... I... I... Wenliangyi... I'm right..."

"Have my aunt seen that person, too?"

"I have seen it, and I have come to deliver medicine in person. I have a round face, not short, and have a good personality. I am quite good at standing next to Chenxiang. Chenxiang's family runs a clinic and his family runs a pharmacy. They are both from doctors, and they are perfect matches just for this."

"No..." Mu Chenxiang quickly interrupted her, "Don't say that gentleness, I won't marry him. I just said a few words... I'm leaving, I'm leaving..." She hurriedly left the door, as if she was hiding from being shy.

Lin Susu smiled and didn't catch up. She asked Hanyu, "Where are you feeling uncomfortable today?"

"It's been a long time ago, aunt, you have asked for it for several days. We have been staying for a month. If we stay, our grandparents and grandmothers will be anxious."

"Don't worry about this, I'll send my mother a letter. I said I'll arrive one or two months later. Fortunately, my mother has the foresight. She was thinking about this one year in advance and asked me to pick you up in advance, otherwise it would be delayed. We didn't have time to attend my father's birthday party. Your uncle has prepared the carriage. You are in good health now, so we will set off tomorrow morning. Have a good rest tonight, and it's not that comfortable to ride the carriage tomorrow."

Hanyu responded. Hanyu saw the care of her for this month. He was very grateful. Although she was restrained, she did raise her well. She asked her to eat more in the past few days and make up for the meat she had lost in those days.

Hanyu also saw the injured Lin family servant. He knew that he had recovered after raising him for a month and was much more at ease.

Before dark that day, two people came to the inn. They were the two guards who stayed in Qingshui Town to find the fourth uncle Hanyu.

Hanyu met them and Hu Jing came one by one to see what happened along the way.

But Hu Jing and the others searched for Qingshui Town for five days, and were asking about the whereabouts of Yan Si Master Yan on five days. But they didn't find anything and almost got cheated of money. Fortunately, they were not fooled. Later, when they were about to leave Qingshui Town, they finally nodded. They heard that there was someone heading towards Suzhou. They took a boat to Suzhou that day. They were lucky to arrive in Suzhou, and they found Yan Si Master Yan that day. Yan Si Master Yan said he was looking for someone and told them not to follow him. Hu Jing passed on the words of the eldest lady, and Yan Si Master Yan only gave them one thing and asked them to hand it over to the eldest lady, and Mo followed him all the way.

Hu Jing handed over a bag filled with cloth towels.

Hanyu reached out to take it, opened the cloth towel, but saw a small box inside.

"This is something the Fourth Master gave to the eldest lady. The young men also said that the fourth master did not let us follow us. The young men had to whip all the way to Shiquanli Suzhou to find the eldest lady. When they arrived at Lin's mansion, the people from the Lin family said that the eldest lady had not arrived in Suzhou. The young men waited for two days in the Lin family. They heard that the eldest lady was delayed on the way, so they quickly came to Hong County again."

"Thank you for your hard work, take a break early today, and I will set out to Suzhou tomorrow."

After Hu Jing and the others left, Han Yu opened the small box, but saw an envelope inside, which seemed to contain something.

Han Yu opened the envelope and took out an object, but was stunned.

It was a piece of white jade with a trace of red veins. It was clearly visible in the sun. It was oval water droplets, the size of her thumb. If she guessed correctly, this jade ornament should be called blood jade, which is an extremely rare treasure among jade, and it has no price. When it comes to jade, it only feels warm and cool. She looked at it carefully, but was extremely surprised.

"Xiao Ya'er, go out. I want to read the book alone for a while and come in half an hour."

Xiaoyaer answered and went out.

When Xiaoyaer went out, Hanyu took out the jade that had been carrying on her neck.

It was a jade ring-shaped jade, a very small jade ring, the whole size was only the thickness of an adult man's thumb. The ring in the middle was the same as her little finger, and the thickness was thinner than the size of the center ring in the middle. The color of the jade ring was half blood-red, as if it was blood-permeable, and the other half was white-fat jade, white without any impurities.

She has carried this piece of jade with her since she was very young, and has never left her body, and has never been exposed. Outsiders know that she was born with jade in her arms, but no one except her family had ever seen her jade. In her previous life, she remembered to show it to her grandmother, but she kept it in her eyes and told her not to let her see it even if she was a close maid.

She put two pieces of jade together.

Let’s look at the jade given to her by the fourth uncle. The blood-red color is somewhat similar to the half-red color of her jade. However, the color of her jade is darker.

There is a legend about blood jade. The formation of blood jade is a piece of good white jade made of jade ornaments and is worn by a woman during her lifetime. After death, she is buried in the tomb. After many years, she is robbed and the bracelet is on the market, and then she is obtained by the woman and is worn again until she enters the tomb after death. After several times, blood jade will be formed.

Therefore, blood jade is hard to find in the world.

Uncle Fourth would give her such a rare thing?
