Madam Luo had her eyes wide open and stared at Mammy Tang surprisingly. Because in her memory, Mammy Tang seldom talked something bad about the masters, and she had never said something so determined and solid like now.
“Hong Jiang, what are you taking about? What do you mean ‘ruin Yi’s reputation’ and ‘Shao was adept at plotting’? How could you say such things?” Madam Luo tightened her eyebrows angrily and added, “I know that you had suffered this time, but it’s not appropriate to describe Shao like this. You see, Yi herself had already let it go.” Madam Luo’s words suggested that Mammy Tang was too petty.
But Mammy Tang shook her head firmly, “Madam, forgive me if I am being beyond my duty. But there’s something I must say. As for Third Miss, she’s too young to understand. So, we can’t count on her judgment on this.” Hearing this, He Danggui lowered her head in shame. Mammy Tang added, “Besides, I was not saying this for being angry about Fourth Miss. On
Mammy Tang proposed, “As I told you on the way before, this time we have to discipline Fourth Miss strictly in secret. Don’t let Second Mistress and Second Lord know about this, or it will be useless!”Madam Luo frowned and asked hesitantly, “Do you want to cheat Shao away and then send her to a Taoist temple for discipline? Is ... Is there any better way?”“Madam, please think about it. Third Miss had only been in the mansion for a few days, but Fourth Miss drugged her and wanted her dumb. What’s the feud between her and Third Miss who just met her for the first time? Or just for fun? We must know that some dumb drugs are temporary, but some are permanent! If she had used the drug wrongly, Third Miss would have become a mute girl for good!” Seeing that Madam Luo didn’t have the heart to blame Fourth Miss, Mammy Tang did her best to convince her, “Now she is only 9 years old, but she has already used this kind of trick to frame her cousin. When she gets mar
“A handsome boy? And you have met him before? Which celestial is he?” Madam Luo was confused, and then she narrowed her eyes, thinking for a while. Under the celestial of Sanqing Immortals and 6 Great Emperors, there were 5 Emperors (Qingdi Emperor, Chidi Emperor, Huangdi Emperor, Baidi Emperor, and Heidi Emperor), 3 Islands and 10 States, Emperors of Heaven, Hell and Water (Heaven Emperor for blessing, Hell Emperor for forgiving, and Water Emperor for disaster-solving), 4 Heavenly Kings… Was there such a celestial like this? She couldn’t think of anyone, so she turned to Mammy Tang, who also shook her head, showing that she knew nothing about any old celestial who could change from an “old celestial” to a “young celestial”.Ah, had Yi met a fox immortal? Or a fox demon? Madam Luo was nervous and she squeezed He Danggui’s hand again and again, as if she wanted to figure out whether the girl in front of her was her granddaughter or not. What a meek girl with same eyebrow
“Ho--”“Ho! Ho! Ho--”“Ah! Miss, look at that! There is something wrong with Madam Luo’s gharry!” Chan Yi retracted her head from the window and said fretfully, “That gharry is very fast! It’s a block far away from us!”“Wow! Miss, see. A lot of stalls on the two sides of the street were crashed by Madam Luo’s gharry!” Huai Hua retracted her head from the window on the other side of the gharry and added in excitement, “Her gharry not only runs fast, but also runs in this way…” She gesticulated, “The gharry runs diagonally over there. There is a fork ahead. What should we do if Madam Luo’s gharry crashes other’s gharry?”He Danggui took out a veil to put on from her dyeing cloth-wrapper, and then shouted at the driver Ren Dongteng, “Mr. Ren, stop the gharry quickly!”Madam Luo’s gharry dashed around the street. Were the horses out of control? It was so strange. The gharry of Madam Luo matched the well-trained fine horse
He Danggui retracted back a little and persuaded Madam Luo in a low voice, “You are sick, Grandma. This pill is just a temporary emergency medicine for refreshing, and it’s just a palliative. Therefore, you should take care of yourself!”“Top-class pills?!” Before Madam Luo replied, Mammy Tang also shrieked, “Jeez!” He Danggui’s shoulder shook because of the super high volume. “Third Miss, you… you have made the top-class pills, right?” Mammy Tang asked. So far as she knew, to make the top-class pills, people should filter out of the crude dregs of a decoction with a precise percolation pot, just leaving the best part, and then combine it with the special honey which was most suitable for this medicine to melt into pills. San Qing Tang gathered pharmaceutical seniors of the whole Yangzhou City and even the whole southern area together, but there were no more than 10 people who could make first-class pills! Third Miss was illiterate and had no precise pharmaceutical tool
Feng Jiugu was 41 years old now. She was the sister of Feng Yilian, Bangzhu (the leader) of Caobang Organization, and the aunt of Feng Yang, the Young Bangzhu of Caobang Organization. She was a Hmong girl adopted by Grandpa Feng from the southwest area in his early years. It was said that she was an orphan girl of Grandpa Feng’s best friend. Her parents entrusted her to Grandpa Feng before they died. Because of her beauty, Grandpa Feng had planned to let her be the wife of his son when she grew up, but a fortune-teller said that she was a white tiger spirit in the previous life and would capture her husband’s life. Therefore, Grandpa Feng finally adopted Feng Jiugu as his foster daughter.When Feng Jiugu was 18 years old, Grandpa Feng gave an open challenge to fight, so as to choose a strong husband for her. But a year later, the strong man died of tuberculosis. Grandpa Feng was surprised, so he found a Tangzhu (the leader of a sector in an organization) of Caobang Orga
Guan’s Family was influential in the Ming Dynasty, with famous members including Guan Jingze, the officer tutoring the Crown Prince, Guan Qingtang, the Deputy Chief of Taipu Administration (a department in charge of affairs related to horses), Guan Rangru, the Grand Scholar of Wen Hua Palace, and Guan Lin, the Zhaoyong General. Since people of Guan’s Family rarely participated in the factionalism, the Emperor always thought highly of them. Therefore, the Guan’s Family could be one of the seven great clans of the Ming Dynasty in every sense.“Wu’s Family, Luo’s Family, Guan’s Family and Sun’s Family are rich and noble” was quite popular in Yangzhou City, but the Guan’s Family in Yangzhou City was only a collateral relative of the Guan’s Clan. In the past, sons of the Guan’s Family in Yangzhou City were almost officials. However, now most of them ran the family business like Luo’s Family in Yangzhou City. In addition to the well-known “Long Tao Weaving Factory” that they
Mammy Tang felt it was improper to ask Third Miss to deliver the medicine. Although Third Miss was young and veiled, she should not do the errand work of delivering things to men. Then Mammy Tang forced herself to her feet and said, “I’ll deliver the medicine, and you should wait in the gharry, Third Miss.”“Since Mammy Tang’s ankle is sprained, I’ll do it!” He Danggui picked up the small wooden box, stood up and said, “But the three dray horses of our gharry look sick. You see, they are heavy breathing, and their eyes are a bit red. Mammy Tang, you get off and wait. I’ll ask Gui Banjiao to bring my gharry here. You and Grandma should also go home by Ren Dongteng’s gharry!” After she said that and jumped off the gharry firstly, she also enjoined Gui Banjiao the same thing.On this side, Madam Luo was still lobbying hard, “... Well, my good boy, come home with me?” It sounded like a trafficker trying to kidnap a child.Feng Yang thought for a mo
The moment before the horse’s hoof was going to fall on He Danggui’s head, she eventually found the feeling of flying in her previous life. When she wanted to jump up for a test flight, her tip of nose knocked into a high and hard “wall” within a blink.A folding fan hung on the “wall” lifted her veil first. Then the “wall” rushed forward again and rebounded her back to the ground. When she opened her eyes, she saw the black shadow of the horse’s hoof falling slowly. She only got enough time to turn over and protect the little kid under her body, then she was suddenly hit by a weight in the middle of her back. And then she fainted and was unconscious immediately.How did she survive?Speaking of that, she had to thank Gao Jue and Lu Jiangbei for conveying their Zhenqi to her. She hadn’t mastered the method of guiding Zhenqi, but could only sigh with emotion when running and lifting heavy loads, “It’s good to have internal force!” Because her in
