Rudonghai

Chapter 240 The eldest son
The old monk believed in his detoxification pills, but just in case, he checked her pulse again and nodded with a smile: "Yes, most of the remaining poison has been eliminated, and the remaining bits will be exhausted within ten days, and I will not let you Madame is worried."

Xiao Xilin also clenched Gu Yunxiao's little hand happily. Who would have thought that one day, people would turn around and send people to look for this old doctor, but they searched and searched, and finally came to the house without any effort?

He motioned Xiao Er to take out a red sandalwood card and handed it to the old monk: "Thank you, please accept the old man. The old man has traveled around and carries too much money on his body. I'm afraid it will cause trouble. This This wooden sign is owned by the Xiao family, as long as the gentleman presents this token at the shop of the Xiao family, someone will offer the money. If it is a restaurant or inn, the old man can do whatever he wants, just keep an account."

"Okay, this thing is very good." The old monk was quite satisfied. He was worried that he didn't have a few copper coins on him when he went to buy medicinal materials and eat, and his pocket was too small.Now that I have this token, I don't have to go out with my wallet, worrying about being robbed and stolen, and I don't have to worry about missing the medicine I like because I don't have the money to buy it.

"The boy is not bad, the old man is not stingy, and I will leave two prescriptions later. After all, the child has been poisoned, and his bones are a little weak. He started to recuperate when he was young, and he will recover gradually, just like ordinary people. One is medicinal bath, soaking in it every day One time. One is oral administration, starting at the age of three, taking a bowl every morning until the age of six."

Qiu Lu had already prepared the Four Treasures of the Study, and the old monk left two prescriptions with a stroke of his pen. With the token of the Xiao Mansion in his pocket, he couldn't wait to embark on a new journey.

Xiao Xilin was a little worried, her child was weak, even though she had left two prescriptions, if she had any doubts, she wanted to find the old monk as soon as possible, so she asked Xiao Er to pay attention, and assigned two young but calm-tempered Xiao Jiawei followed the old monk in hiding, trying not to disturb his life, only helping him when he was in trouble, and keeping an eye on his whereabouts all the time.

Gu Yunxiao carefully hid the two prescriptions, and the melancholy between his brows disappeared without a trace.She stretched out her hand to caress her belly, and smiled slightly.

She and her child are fine, and the family can finally be together for a long time.

Xiao Xilin held Gu Yunxiao's catkin tightly, and couldn't hide her joy and excitement.

The two of them were finally able to grow old together. He had waited too long for this moment...

"Ma'am, breathe in, use your strength..." Wen Po wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve. Although it was early autumn and it was cool, there were four braziers burning in the room, making people sweat profusely.

Especially Gu Yunxiao, who was pale on the couch, bit her lip, but the child was not born for a long time, and Mrs. Wen was also in a cold sweat with anxiety.

Before she came in, Xiao Xilin just took a look, and then said: "If there is anything wrong with Madam, you and your family will be buried with Madam, understand? If you do well, I will not treat your family badly." .”

Wen Po took a deep breath, but lost her mind for a moment, and heard Qiu Hong shouting in a trembling voice: "Madam, Madam...Madam fainted!"

Originally, the child couldn't get out, and the person was dizzy, which was even more difficult.

Wen Po hurriedly ordered: "Quickly, let Madam hold a piece of ginseng in her mouth, and then pinch the person again, be sure to wake up as soon as possible."

Otherwise, when the time comes, not only will the child be gone, but also a dead body and two lives!
Qiu Hong trembled with her hands and did not move, Qiu Lu pushed her away and pinched Gu Yunxiao with a steady mind.

Gu Yunxiao woke up faintly, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Wen Po urged: "Ma'am, use your strength, the baby is coming out soon!"

Yes, boy!

Gu Yunxiao was in a daze of pain, and when he heard the word "children", he came back to his senses and exerted all his strength.

"Wow--"

When the child's cry came, Mrs. Wen was relieved, her legs were almost weak and she could not stand still.

Qiu Lu hurriedly took the little master over, wiped it carefully and wrapped it in swaddling clothes, and said softly to Gu Yunxiao: "Look, madam, the young master is in good spirits, and he can cry loudly enough."

Gu Yunxiao only glanced at it. The baby was just born, her face was red and wrinkled, and she couldn't tell who it looked like before it had grown up. It was just a child born through hard work. No matter what it was, in her eyes it was The cutest one nodded to her and said: "Send it out to my husband to have a look, he should be in a hurry."

"Yes, ma'am, rest well first, the maidservant and Qiu Hong will take care of the young master carefully." Qiu Lu said that she and Qiu Hong will take turns to take care of the young master, and will not leave anyone else alone.

Gu Yunxiao nodded reassuringly, she was really tired, and quickly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Liu Xu wiped the sweat from her forehead, and then tucked in the quilt to prevent Gu Yun from catching cold.

Qiu Lu went out with the baby in her arms, the anxiety on Xiao Xilin's brows eased a little, and when she saw the baby, she asked first, "How is Madam?"

"Madam is fine, but she is very tired and has already fallen asleep." Qiu Lu passed the swaddle forward, Xiao Xilin stretched out her hand to caress the baby's delicate face, the corner of her mouth curled up, full of allure: "Take good care of her." Madam and young master, outside the courtyard is Xiao Jiawei, except for the three of you, there are two nuns sent by my aunt, the rest are not allowed to enter, or they will be killed without mercy."

"Yes, my lord." Qiu Lu nodded in response, and carefully wrapped the swaddling clothes tightly so that the young master would not be blown by the wind.

After all, the old monk said that the young master's bones were relatively weak when he was born, and he had to be taken care of carefully. He would gradually get better after soaking in medicinal soup, but he would not completely get better until he was six or seven years old.

Until then, it's best to be cautious.

When Qiu Lu tiptoed in, Qiu Hong nodded her lips with her fingertips, signaling her to keep her voice down.

Seeing that Gu Yunxiao was so tired that she was fast asleep on the couch, she carefully placed the young master next to his wife.

Liu Xu came in with ginseng soup and put it on the stove in the corner to warm it, her face was rather aggrieved.

Seeing this, Qiuhong couldn't help being surprised, dragged her to the side room and asked in a low voice: "What's the matter, who is mad at you?"

Liu Xu wrinkled her small face, pointed outside and said, "The servants of the Gu family came to the door just now. It's such a good day, it's really..."

"Master Gu knows that his wife has given birth to a young master. Is this a gift to celebrate?" Qiu Hong smiled. Someone as ignorant of the world as Mr. Gu would think of sending someone to come to the door one day. After having a pair of children, Gu Yunxiao is his only support.

The birth of a young master is such a great event, if you don't come to flatter me at this time, when will you wait?

Liu Xu shook her head and sighed, "No, my servant is not here to celebrate, but to announce the funeral."

Qiu Hong frowned, and heard Liu Xu say: "Master Gu passed away half an hour ago, and there is no one in charge at home, so the servants had to come to the door."

Otherwise, Master Gu's affairs after death cannot be left to the servants.

"Unlucky, it's really unlucky!" Qiu Hong stomped her feet angrily. She never died sooner or later, but she died when the young master of the Xiao family was born. Even if Master Gu died, it would be unpleasant: "Don't let Madam know , how annoying is this?"

That old master Gu died, and this young young master was born, it seems that the Gu master rushed to reincarnate.It's just that Master Gu is not welcome in Xiao's mansion, so don't be reincarnated in the mansion.

Liu Xu quickly replied: "You don't need to tell me, I don't dare to say too much."

She gestured and said vaguely, "Teacher... also knows."

Qiu Hong understands that Xiao Xilin just wants to take things over.After all, there is indeed no one in Gu's mansion, and it would be bad if Gu Yunxiao didn't take over the funeral of Master Gu.

But now Gu Yunxiao happened to be confinement, even if he didn't come out to attend Master Gu's funeral in person, no one could say anything bad about it.

With Xiao Xilin coming forward in person, can't he stop those big mouths outside?

"Young Master is kind. Master Gu is lucky to have the Grand Tutor arrange the funeral in person." Qiu Hong let out a sigh of relief, and hurried back to the room with Liu Xu to serve her.

Since Xiao Xilin is here to worry about the Gu family, it is enough for them to take good care of their wife.

Last time, the servants of the Gu family swept away all the money, and later the Yulin army chased most of it back, but the rest had already been spent, and there was no way to find it, so they had to let it go.

Looking back, Master Gu was lingering on the sick bed, and he couldn't get better for a long time.All the recovered money was thrown into buying medicine and hiring a doctor, as well as the servant's monthly money, and there was nothing left.

With a wave of his hand, Xiao Xilin bought a sandalwood coffin with his own money, asked the monks to recite scriptures, and after Mr. Gu was buried in the ground, most of the servants were dispersed, leaving two honest and dutiful old couples. gatekeeper.

After all, the Gu Mansion was Gu Yunxiao's former home. Although she didn't like it very much, and she didn't have a good time as a child, she couldn't just sell it like this.

Master Gu is gone, and it is vacant. Gu Yunxiao can come back and take a look at it anytime he wants.

There was suddenly such a large expenditure on the accounts of the mansion, Gu Yunxiao saw the account books handed over by Qiu Hong silently after confinement, how could he not know?

She was silent for a moment, then sighed: "Daddy's health has not been very good since the death of his sister. After so long, it's time. Everyone must die, not to mention that Daddy has already lost all hope."

Gu Yunxiao stretched out his hand to caress the child beside him. It was a small ball, his white and tender face was a little thinner, and he was sleeping soundly with his fists clenched.

She looked at the child who had worked so hard to give birth, and the pain of tearing before seemed to still remain, but just looking at the sleeping face of the child, she felt that all the pain was worth it.

"It's daddy after all, it's hard work for my husband." When Xiao Xilin came in, Gu Yunxiao was holding the child's little hand and smiling at him.

"It's just a little effort, it's nothing hard." Xiao Xilin hugged her and kissed her cheek, and then held the child's little hand. It was small and soft, as if accidentally exerting force would hurt the child. He was careful. Be careful again.

"Master Gu's family is already in peace, so Madam doesn't have to think about it. I'm afraid Master Gu has already thought of this ending."

Otherwise, before he died, he wouldn't have called his servants to come to inform Gu Yunxiao. Without Master Gu's acquiescence, how could those servants dare to come to Xiao's mansion indiscriminately?
