By Jia Xiuzhen

Cao Chang Yingfei, because Li Wan mentioned Xiaoqi from Qiao Niangzi's family several times, Li Wan heard what Madam Xu said was interesting, so this time he specially asked him to go to the city with him.The gatekeeper took the plain purse handed over by Madam Xu, and said with a smile on her face, "Whose child is this, born with such a blessing." Madam Xu asked someone to pull a cart to pick things up. , while saying: "My new god-son, he is very well-behaved." Everyone complimented him naturally.

After entering Li Wan's courtyard, Suyun and the others ignored the things delivered by Zhuangzi this time, and gathered around Xiao Qi to look at them.Xiao Qi is over one year old, usually stays in the workshop, and is used to seeing crowds, now grinning at everyone.Li Wan then said: "This child is very courageous, if the mother hugs him like this, can his parents rest assured?"

Mother Xu smiled and said: "I'm really worried, since Yunqiu took her cub with her at the end of last year to keep her company, now she stays with us for nine out of ten days, and at night his mother comes to hug him and go away. Li Wan took a fruit to tease him, and asked: "Maybe I have dinner now? Do you still eat rice cereal?"

Mother Xu said: "This child has good teeth and has already started to eat rotten rice. If you put more steamed food, you can eat a big bowl in a day." Just as he was talking, Jia Lan came back, and Li Wan greeted him. : "Come and see, you have a companion, and this is edible." Seeing that Jia Lan was a child, Xiao Qi was even more happy, and gave him the fruit in her hand.Jia Lan sat beside him, tapped his face with her hands, and said to Li Wan, "Hello, baby."

Mother Xu then asked him: "You've never seen it before, what should I say?" Jia Lan smiled and said, "This kid doesn't seem to be calculating at all, so it's good." Mother Xu laughed loudly and said: "Brother, it's because I saw a lot of those picky things in school. Such a kid can't even make a whole sentence. Where did he come up with calculations." Jia Lan shook his head and said: "That's not the case. Small, but annoying to look at, this kid is really nice." Then he turned to Li Wan and said, "Mother, let's keep him and be with me."

Li Wan laughed and said: "Where do you have time every day? He is also his mother's heart and soul. He stayed with us for nothing, and he didn't cry to her mother's death. Today, the mother brought him here to show us. I've heard that this baby is cute, and now it seems to be so." Madam Xu said: "Even if I don't like children, this baby is different, aside from other things, I came by car all the way, and I don't get bored or cry. Nao, looking out the window all the way and chatting with me, I have to relieve my boredom."

Just as he was talking, Xiao Qi began to hum at Mammy Xu, and Nanny Xu smiled and said, "This is about to be dragged, I can't stay with you for a while." Suyun and Biyue rushed up to pick him up, and Nanny Xu dialed He said to the two of them: "You don't know this, I'm used to it, lead me to the next room."

Nanny Xu hugged Xiao Qi to pee, Nanny Chang sighed: "I've never seen Nanny Xu like this before, it's really fate." Nanny Yan also said: "Nowadays there is no junior around, I'm afraid it's a bit lonely " Li Wan patted his face and said, "It's all my fault, now grandma's grandchildren are not allowed to be by her side, and I'm afraid they will go farther and farther in the future..."

Nanny Chang smiled and said: "Grandma doesn't need to be overwhelmed. It's either I am talkative, or the few who were originally wishful and happy. I have never seen her hurt so much. She only cares about Brother Gu. She really doesn't love children. people." Yan Momo also laughed: "I don't know if it's because she's a little older and has changed her temper." As she spoke, Xu Momo packed up Xiao Qi and carried her up.

Li Wan said to Madam Xu, "Mama, let's leave later today." Then he asked people to go to the kitchen to say hello.Suyun took two purses and handed them to Li Wan, Li Wan took them and stuffed them into Xiao Qi's hands, saying, "This is a gift for you." Xiao Qi grabbed the tassels in her hands and looked at Li Wan with a smile Nanny Xu stuffed him into her arms, and asked him to bow to Li Wan.Xiaoqi popped out "Thank... thank you, thank you..." and nodded again, making everyone love her so much.

Li Wan discussed with Nanny Xu and went to Li Wan's room. Nanny Chang and Nanny Yan were busy ordering the things that Nanny Xu had brought, and they called Suyun Biyue to help from time to time.Jia Lan asked Yingcao and the others to remove the kang table from the east room, and rolled on it to play with Xiaoqi.He peeled a small tangerine and fed it to Xiao Qi, but Primrose wanted to do it for him, but he stopped him.While eating, Xiao Qi raised her head to laugh at him from time to time, and nodded again, not knowing whether to say that the orange was delicious, or to thank Jialan.

Jia Lan saw that he smiled showing some deciduous teeth, which was very funny, so he asked Primrose and the others to fetch things from his room to make Xiao Qi laugh.While playing around, he took out a heart-nourishing pill from his purse and ate it. Xiao Qi was playing next to him, and when he saw him eating, he opened his mouth to signal him "ah, ah".

Jia Lan smiled and said, "You want to eat it too." After saying that, he took out two pills from his purse and stuffed them into his mouth. Xiao Qi pursed his lips and then looked down to play with himself.Li Wan came out of the house and saw it, it was too late to stop him.The elixir melts in the mouth, and it doesn't need to be transported and melted by the five internal organs, it really takes effect when it touches the teeth.Seeing the change of Li Wan's face, Xu Mama saw that her eyesight was not as good as Li Wan's, and she didn't see clearly from across the main room, and was about to ask, when she saw Li Wan walking quickly to the kang in the east room, and hurriedly followed.

Li Wan was afraid of frightening the child with his loud words, so he said slowly: "What did Lan'er give Xiao Qi just now?" Jia Lan pointed to the fruit plate on the kang cabinet and said, "I peeled the oranges for him to eat, and also fed him. I ate two pieces of cake." Xiao Qi smiled and nodded at Li Wan.Li Wan hugged him, secretly released his spiritual energy to probe his meridians, and then asked Jia Lan: "I just saw what you took out of your purse and stuffed it into his mouth?"

Jia Lan took out two pills of nourishing the heart and protecting the gods from his purse and said, "Oh, this is it. I eat it, and he wants it too, so I gave him two." After talking, he smiled and asked Xiaoqi: " Do you still eat?" Xiao Qi also smiled at him, yawned with a smile, fell asleep in Li Wan's arms.Li Wan withdrew his consciousness, Xiaoqi's meridians were normal, this pill was originally taken out for Yingchun's recuperation, Jia Lan took it as jelly beans and there was nothing wrong with it, but this Xiaoqi was just one year old Little baby, I'm afraid that something will happen.

Then she turned around and said to Mother Xu: "I'm afraid I won't be able to leave today, this poor child fed Xiao Qi the pills he ate, although it's not harmful, after all Xiao Qi is still young, why don't you stay overnight and wait I'll go back tomorrow after seeing that I'm sure everything's fine." Madam Xu knew something was wrong when she heard Li Wan's questioning, but now that she heard what she said, she nodded and carried Xiao Qi from Li Wan's arms. I'm not worried.

Li Wan glared at Jia Lan, and couldn't control him for a while, so she asked Nanny Xu to carry Xiao Qi into her room together.I don't know if it's because of the potency of the medicine, but Xiao Qi slept soundly, her flushed complexion seemed normal.Li Wan asked Nanny Xu to remove Xiao Qi's clothes, and took out a plain little jacket for him to put on.

Holding his hands, slowly spit out the spiritual power to go up and down along his meridians over and over again.Xiaoqi was grinning in her sleep, and Nanny Xu felt a little relieved when she saw it—it didn't look uncomfortable no matter what.After everyone had finished their dinner and Xiao Qi hadn't woken up yet, Nanny Xu became anxious.Li Wan didn't know how to comfort her, so he went straight to Xiao Tianxia to look it up, but he only said that the pill is good for the mind and has no harm.

Since it is harmless, there is naturally no solution.Li Wan came out dejectedly, and helplessly fed Xiao Qi a few sips of bitter tea, Xiao Qi swallowed without hindrance, drank a few sips of tea and continued to sleep in bed.That night, Li Wan and Nanny Xu stayed by the bed, and Nanny Xu didn't even eat a bite of dinner.On the second day at Yin time, Xiao Qi opened his eyes. Seeing that he woke up, Li Wan was afraid that he might cry if he saw that he was not at his home, so he quickly reached out to hug him. Xiao Qi nestled in Li Wan's arms and watched carefully for a while. , Smiling again with narrowed eyes.

Li Wan took a closer look and felt that it was a little different from yesterday, but he couldn't tell what the difference was.Mammy Xu also woke up from the sidelines, quickly took Xiao Qi and hugged her, and said in her mouth: "Baby, Mama's good grandson." Rubbing her whole body and face again, Xiao Qi held her face against her. Looking at Nanny Xu, she wrapped her small wrist around her neck, very well-behaved.Seeing this, Li Wan breathed a sigh of relief, if Xiao Qi had something to do, he might be a big sinner.

He hurriedly asked Suyun to bring the meat porridge warmed on the charcoal stove outside, and Nanny Xu fed it to Xiao Qi.Li Wan persuaded Nanny Xu to rest for a while, and Xiaoqi woke up, and there was nothing to eat or drink.Only then did Nanny Xu go to the outer couch and lie down with her clothes on for a while.Xiao Qi stayed in Li Wan's room, and Li Wan used his spiritual power to investigate again, but there was no abnormality, after thinking about it, he changed his consciousness, after this exploration, he found that Xiao Qi's sea of ​​consciousness was larger than that of ordinary people Many, I don't know if it's because of the Heart-Nursing and Protecting God Pill, or it's just like this.Li Wan thought about it, and after Xiao Qi fell asleep in a daze, he turned and went to the Pearl Realm.

The next morning, everyone was relieved to see that Xiaoqi was fine.Li Wan left Nanny Xu to eat breakfast again, took out a huge package in the room, opened it and said to Nanny Xu: "Mommy, I was careless this time, I almost made Lan'er get into trouble, I am here to make amends to Nanny!" There were only the two of them in the room, and Mammy Xu reached out to help her up when she saw Li Wan so quickly, "Grandma, what are you talking about! How can I let grandma come to make an apology!"

Li Wan smiled and said: "Sister, don't talk about it. My heart is still pounding right now. Fortunately, nothing happened. Otherwise, I don't know how it will end." Xu's mother also wiped her forehead and said: " If there is something wrong with bringing someone else’s baby here, I’m afraid it’s useless even if I lose my life, yesterday really scared me.”

The two talked about it, looked at each other and smiled wryly.Li Wan took out a large three-layer pale yellow brocade box from the package, and said to Nanny Xu: "To tell you the truth, what Lan'er took is actually medicine for nourishing the mind and spirit. Because he practiced diligently and was afraid of getting hurt, he specially took it out." Matched. Since Xiao Qi ate two pills, he slept soundly again, which probably meant that he repaired some defects in his mind. This was the first time he ate too much. There are still five pills in this bottle. Nanny will feed him one pill every other day, and if the seven pills are used up, it should be made up."

After hearing this, Mother Xu asked suspiciously: "Yesterday we bluffed by eating it, so why are we letting him eat it now that we're awake?" Li Wan said, "I've checked the medicine book carefully, Xiao Qi's appearance is probably due to his innate lack of mental strength. , I took two pills for the first time before I fell into a deep sleep, but now that I wake up, the potency of the medicine has been used up. Look at Xiao Qi’s eyes today, don’t they look brighter than usual?”

Mother Xu thought about it for a while and it was true, Fang took the medicine, and said: "These seven pills are used up, how can we know whether to make up for it?" Li Wan said: "Take this medicine after making up, just like eating jelly beans." It seems that there is no reaction anymore, just like Lan'er is now. It's harmless to eat too much of this stuff, so I might as well bring some more for Mammy."

Mother Xu shook her head and said, "No need, no one takes medicine all the time. I understand this. Anyway, if you still sleep badly after taking seven pills, I'll ask grandma again." Li Wan nodded and said: "That's fine." Opening the brocade boxes one by one, Madam Xu saw that they were all small boxes, bottles and bundles, but she didn't know why.

Li Wan then took out a water-patterned flat round porcelain box and opened it, inside were milky white round grains the size of the tip of a little finger, with a tangy milky fragrance.She said: "This is dry milk, not milk. Milk is cold in nature. Children are not used to eating it and eating it hurts the spleen and stomach. This is goat's milk. This is just one grain at a time. It is boiled in hot water and can be cured." Cook three or four bowls, it is best for children to eat."

After speaking, he took a short porcelain bottle with a big belly and wide mouth, pulled out the stopper on it, and poured out two pieces for Xu Momo to see, one crystal powder and one delicate yellow, "This is fruit candy, and it's all boiled from fruit. Made of glue, it melts in the mouth and can be eaten as a fruit, and it is no more harmful than a fruit. There are many colors in it, and each color has a different taste." There are also candied fruit, dried fruit cake powder, fish velvet and meat floss... miscellaneous, All kinds of colors are nothing more than suitable for children to eat.

After explaining everything, he pointed to the last layer and said: "These medicinal materials are mixed, except for a handful of ginseng whiskers on the top of the head. Mammy used chicken and duck to stew soup every now and then, and Xiaoqi also drank it A few spoonfuls of it will be good for his body too." Madam Xu is not stupid, so she asked her: "But what's wrong with Xiao Qi's body?"

Li Wan nodded and said: "It's also a blessing in disguise. I felt his pulse yesterday. He wasn't born strong. I'm afraid he wasn't fed enough at the beginning. Fortunately, he is still young, so he can make up in less than a year. The ginseng beard Although they are small and inconspicuous, grandma, they are very good. When stewing soup, it is enough to cut off the length of one knuckle at a time, and don't put more. Remember." Xu grandma nodded hurriedly.

Li Wan put the brocade box into the parcel again, pointed to the clothes inside and said to Madam Xu: "These are all clothes made for Lan'er by the needlework in the mansion, and I have never worn them. If Qi is destined, I will give it to Xiao Qi. There are also two pieces of material for Xiao Qi to cut clothes. In private, since the mother recognizes him as a god-son, he can also call me an aunt." Xu Nanny Tears welled up in Mama's eyes when she heard this, but she reprimanded her, "You're talking nonsense again! Being a master should have the dignity of being a master." Li Wan smiled and didn't refute her, calling Suyun Biyue to come in and get something.

Just as Nanny Xu on the other end took Xiao Qi in her arms and took Li Wan's reward back to the village, Li Wan on the other end slipped Jia Lan up to him.Jia Lanjing already knew yesterday that he had made a big mistake, and he didn't sleep well all night. Seeing that Xiaoqi was safe and sound this morning, he hurriedly brought him his things.Seeing him lowering his head, Li Wan felt remorseful, and remembered the incident with Jia Zhu before, after thinking about it, he pushed back the person, and said to him: "Lan'er, this is not the first time."

Li Wanruo scolded him badly, but this exhausting sentence made Jia Lan even more at a loss as to what to do.He quickly knelt down on the ground, bowed his head and said: "Mother, the child is wrong, please punish him." Li Wan helped him up, hugged him in his arms and whispered: "Mother knows, it's not your fault. How do you know?" These things are amazing. Alas!"

Jia Lan choked with sobs and said, "I knew to be careful when I went back to Brother Jun. This time, because of this pill, the smell is like jelly beans. After taking it for a long time, I didn't feel any discomfort. The fragrance I like the taste very much, and I would not be willing to eat more than usual, let alone give it to others. This time, I saw that the doll is so cute, and I shared it with him when I saw that he wanted to eat it. I didn't expect it to be like this..."

In the end, the more I talked, the more afraid I became and cried.Li Wan knew that he was very frightened yesterday, so he hugged him and didn't speak. After he had cried enough, he wiped his face with a handkerchief. Although Jia Lan stopped crying, he was still sobbing. Li Wan patted him on the head and said : "This time you have to remember well, you practice diligently, and your body and bones are different from ordinary people. Therefore, what you can eat, others may not be able to eat. Just like the barbecue last time, you eat it deliciously, if you give it to everyone It's harmful for Mammy to eat a few. That's why, you can't make such a presumptuous claim in the future." Jia Lan nodded hurriedly and said: "If there is such a thing in the future, I will definitely tell my mother first."

Li Wan nodded and said: "I was also wrong this time. When I gave you the pill, I was joking with my mother, but I forgot to warn you. By the way, have you given this pill back to others?" Jia Lan whispered: " I also ate a few grains for my fourth aunt..." Li Wan couldn't help helping his forehead, Jia Lan was generous with the things around him, and the threshold for eating here alone was very tight, but he and Xi Chunsu came to speculate, but he didn't expect that even He also shared a pill with his aunt.Seeing that Li Wan was silent, Jia Lan said even more urgently: "Mother, should we go and see Fourth Aunt..."

Li Wan asked him: "When did you give your fourth aunt food? How much?" Jia Lan lowered his head and said, "I gave it to fourth aunt within a few days... When I talked about second aunt's illness that day, I I ate one for the fourth aunt. The fourth aunt said it tasted good, so I poured a few for her, about a dozen. Mom, is it okay? Will the fourth aunt..." Li Wan waved his hand and stopped He said: "Since your fourth aunt took it early, if something happens, wait until now? Although you gave her some, she also knows that it is medicine, so she won't take it all at once. Don't panic, I will wait later Just go and have a look at her." Jia Lan quickly nodded in agreement.
