serious man in the red chamber

Chapter 466

The Wu family has an old house in the capital, and it is located in Mingyufang, Xicheng, not too far from Ningrong Street.

At this moment, the door of the Wu family's old house was open. The Wu family's steward and several young men were standing inside the door. They all looked at the Jia family soldier standing on the stone steps in front of the door with a knife in his hand in panic.

There was silence.

Suddenly, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves, and everyone turned their attention.

From a distance, a group of cavalry came guarding two blue cloth official sedans.

The doctor is here!

The steward said to a boy: "I'm holding you here, you go and report it to the old lady!"

The boy nodded and ran towards the backyard as fast as he could.

There were so many people that the large backyard hall was filled to the brim.

All the serious masters of the Wu family came, but they all stood there silently, no one said a word.

The white-haired old lady of the Wu family was sitting on the main seat with her eyes slightly closed, and the string of nanmu rosary beads in her hand was spinning faster and faster.

Mrs. Wu couldn't hold it any longer and said, "Old lady, I'd better go and ask the old lady of the Jia family."

The old lady of the Wu family still didn't open her eyes, she just said two words: "Quiet!"

Mrs. Wu had to swallow her words.

It was silent again.

Everyone looked at the incomprehensible old lady. Although they were anxious, they had no choice but to endure it.

Suddenly, the old lady of the Wu family opened her eyes and stared closely at the passage leading to the front yard outside the door.

Gradually, the sound of rapid running was heard outside the courtyard.

Everyone became tense.

The footsteps were approaching, and then the servant rushed in covered with sweat. He knelt down outside the door and gasped: "Come on, come on. The imperial doctor is really here."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Wu family was so frightened that their faces turned pale.

At this moment, the rosary beads in the Wu family's old lady's hand suddenly broke, and they fell to the ground and rolled all over the ground.

There was silence, and the air seemed to have solidified.

The old lady of the Wu family closed her eyes, her lips moved, and her hands trembled slightly.

She didn't expect Lin Daiyu to come for real!

Like Jia Mu, the old lady of the Wu family is also the helmsman of the entire Wu family. When the news of the Jinling victory came, she was keenly aware of a rolling trend that the Wu family could not stop!
The general trend is rolling, and those who go against it will perish!

Just when she was thinking about how to write a letter to her son Wu Chengxian, Lin Daiyu's autographed letter suddenly made her eyes light up. The Jia family was showing goodwill to the Wu family and further wooing the Wu family.

She naturally knows what the Jia family wants, so she wants to sell the Guangdong Navy for a good price!

When talking about business, don’t be in a hurry, take your time!

Now it was the Jia family who wanted something from the Wu family. The old lady of the Wu family wanted the Jia family to show her trump card first, so she turned down Lin Daiyu's invitation on the grounds of being unwell.

Of course, there is also her selfishness. The Wu family has always been like a local emperor in Guangdong for decades. She, the old lady of the Wu family, is the most noble person in Guangdong. She is always waiting for her with invitations from others. Summoned, she had never been summoned to drink before, and she was still a junior, which made her feel very uncomfortable!

Moreover, when Jia Hu wanted to go overseas for business, he sought help from the Wu family as his nephew.

Such a huge gap made it difficult for her to let go for a while.

Of course, it's not that she doesn't know Lin Daiyu's identity, it's precisely because she knows Lin Daiyu's identity that she dares to do this. She believes that Lin Daiyu will put the overall situation first!

Until the young man came in, she thought this was just Lin Daiyu's way of forcing the Wu family to bow. Lin Daiyu would not really send an imperial doctor to diagnose her pulse.

As long as the Wu family wins this round, the rest of the business will be easier to negotiate.

It's a pity that she made a wrong bet. Lin Daiyu, like Jia Hu, is a person who doesn't play according to common sense.

Now there are only two options before the Wu family, one is to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor, and the other is that the old lady of the Wu family is really unwell.

At this time, there were chaotic footsteps outside the hospital.

Everyone's expressions changed, and they all looked at the old lady of the Wu family.

The old lady of the Wu family came back to her senses, took a deep breath, then took out a small bottle from her sleeve, uncorked it, then raised the bottle and poured it into her mouth!

When everyone saw this, they were all shocked and couldn't help but rush over:

"Old lady!" "Ancestor!"

"."

The old lady of the Wu family shouted loudly: "Stop! At this time, be steady and no one can move rashly!" After saying that, she picked up the tea bowl and drank it all in one gulp, and then said: "Remember, I have a bad stomach." After that, He got up and walked into the back hall.
A burst of tinkling tinkling sound came from the backyard of Ning'an Hall.

In the inner room, Lin Daiyu's hands were playing on a piano.

Sisters Li Wen and Li Qi's eyes widened and they looked closely at Lin Daiyu's hand.

Tanchun closed his eyes and listened to the piano.

Lin Daiyu finished playing: "It's embarrassing. Do you know this piece of music?"

Li Wen and Li Qi looked at each other and shook their heads.

Tanchun smiled: "The tune is melodious and smooth, it must be an ancient song."

Lin Daiyu rolled her eyes at her: "This is a piece of "Goose Falling on a Flat Sand"."

Tanchun was confused: "What does this mean?"

Lin Daiyu smiled.

At this time, Grandma Wang hurriedly walked in: "Princess, Xu Yuanzheng from the Imperial Hospital and Doctor Wang are here."

Lin Daiyu smiled, stood up and walked out.

In the hall, Xu Yuanzheng and Doctor Wang were standing there with their hands down, waiting for Lin Daiyu.

Listening to the footsteps coming from the inner room, the two of them knelt down quickly and said in unison: "See the princess."

Lin Daiyu: "Get up." After saying that, she walked straight to the main seat and sat down. There were medical records and prescriptions on the table beside her.

After reading the medical records and prescriptions, Lin Daiyu frowned slightly and asked, "Is the old lady of the Wu family sick?"

Xu Yuanzheng looked at Dr. Wang.

Doctor Wang answered: "Back to Princess, Madam Wu's wife is indeed ill. It's just..."

Lin Daiyu: "Say."

Doctor Wang: "Both Xu Yuanzheng and I suspect that Mrs. Wu Jiatai did not have a bad stomach, but was caused by taking medicine."

Xu Yuanzheng: "Yes."

Lin Daiyu understood and asked again: "Is it okay?"

Doctor Wang replied: "Princess, it's not a problem. As long as you take good care of yourself, rest well, and take two doses of medicine, you'll be fine."

Lin Daiyu nodded: "If you use some snacks to heal the old lady of the Wu family, the prince and the prince will reward you heavily!"

Xu Yuanzheng and Doctor Wang replied in unison: "Yes."

Lin Daiyu looked at Grandma Wang again.

Grandma Wang understood, picked up the medical records and prescriptions on the table and handed them to Dr. Wang.

After receiving the medical records and prescriptions, Xu Yuanzheng and Wang Taiyi said again: "I beg you to leave." After saying that, they bowed and left.

Lin Daiyu looked at the disappearing figures of Xu Yuanzheng and Dr. Wang. There was a smile line at the corner of her mouth. This old lady of the Wu family was a character!
There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and then Wang Wu's voice came: "Princess."

Lin Daiyu: "Come in."

Wang Wu walked in holding a letter and looking down at the ground.

Lin Daiyu glanced at Grandma Wang.

Grandma Wang understood, stepped forward to collect the letter, walked back to Lin Daiyu, and held it there.

Lin Daiyu took the letter, tore it open and read it. After reading it, she nodded with a satisfied smile and then said to Aunt Wang: "Go to the warehouse to pick some good supplements and send them to the Wu family." Then she said to Wang Wu. : "Tell the Wu family's wife that the prince has always remembered the Wu family's help to the Jia family."

Wang Wu replied: "Yes." Then he followed Grandma Wang out.

Looking at the letter in her hand, Lin Daiyu smiled. This man would never be willing to touch it.

This is an autographed letter from the Wu family's wife. It is respectful and awe-inspiring. It bluntly states that the Wu family has no rebellious intentions. They are just forced by the previous royal family and have no choice but to protect themselves. Their old lady will write to the head of the family to persuade him to return. Report on work in Beijing and pay homage to the new emperor!

Ah!
Wouldn't it be over if we had been so happy earlier? We would have to make everyone lose face.

Lin Daiyu folded the letter, turned around and walked to the inner room to write a letter to Jia Hu
