Chapter 24 Things are a little weird today
The energetic little old man sitting at the top is the patriarch of the Du family.
Other old men, either great uncles or great uncles, have not seen the original owners biological grandfather and grandmother. It is said that the two elders have passed away.
The old patriarch asked aloud: "Girl Wan, the potential boy sent a message back saying that you don't remember the past, but is it true?"
Du Wan nodded obediently: "Yes."
Suddenly, let the whole audience be silent!
this
Du Wan was a little surprised by everyone's reaction.
The old patriarch asked anxiously: "What about the inheritance jade?"
"What?" Du Wan's face was confused, "What is this?"
Du Qian on the side quickly added, "The old patriarch is asking about the jade plaque worn by my sister."
Yes, yes, its a jade plaque with a small white flower. Is it still there? the old patriarch agreed.
"exist!"
Du Wan answered obediently.
The old patriarch proposed on the spot, "Take it out for everyone to see."
Okay. Du Wan took off the jade plaque worn around her neck.
A group of tribesmen came forward one after another and stared at the jade plaque for a while.
After a while, the old patriarch spoke again: "It's good that it's not lost. Then let's disperse."
When everyone dispersed, only their family of four was left.
Eh, thats it?
Du Wan was stunned.
What about the imaginary scolding and punishment?
There are no members of the Du family present.
The eldest princess who used to be graceful and luxurious is now just an ordinary woman who is worried about her daughter. She looked at her daughter distressedly, grabbed her little hand, and saw that her little hand, which was as smooth as jade in the past, had thick calluses and some small scars, and she felt so distressed that she wiped tears silently.
Du Wan quickly looked at Du Qian for help.
Du Qian gave her a helpless look.
Du Wan could only comfort her awkwardly, "Don't cry, don't cry, it's okay, it's okay."
My Waner is suffering.
"It's not hard, it's not hard, it's good to go out for a walk. I heard from my brother that he used to travel a lot, and he would go there for more than half a year. I'm not even three months old."
...What are you talking about? the eldest princess laughed and scolded with tears in her eyes.
Du Wan smiled obediently.
This cheap girl is still a sickly and beautiful woman.
Du Qian spoke up in time: "Father, mother is still ill. Please help mother go back to the room first. I will take my sister to familiarize myself with the situation at home. I will take her to pay my respects to my parents later."
"Okay, then you, the elder brother, please be more careful." Du Ma patted his son on the shoulder, then rubbed his daughter's little head, "Be good and stop being naughty, okay?"
Hey, hey, I listen to you.
Du Wan winked at Du Qian strangely.
It made both the couple laugh.
Du Huima helped his wife to leave.
Du Qian led his sister to the courtyard where she used to live.
At this moment, Du Wan was walking a little unsteadily and whispered, "Brother, things are a bit strange today."
Du Qian asked: "What kind of strange method?"
"I can't tell, but it feels weird anyway." Du Wan chuckled and touched the back of his head, "Before I came back, I made preparations to kneel in the ancestral hall, beat the board, confine myself, ground myself, copy books, and send them home. The temple is mentally prepared."
Poof!
Du Qian laughed and flicked her forehead, "How do the seeds on this head grow?"
Brother! Just tell me.
"Do you remember what the patriarch did just now? It's not hard to guess." "It's because of this -"
Du Wan pressed the jade plaque on her chest.
Du Qian hummed slightly, confirming her idea.
So, what the Du clan values is not her, but the jade medal she wears.
Du Wan was in a daze, "The old patriarch called it inheritance jade?"
Its just a title given by the older generation. I havent seen anything really passed down to you over the years. Du Qian said very disapprovingly.
When Du Wan heard this, she felt a little guilty.
No, its passed on!
No, it was not passed to the original owner, but to her...
Du Qian held his sister's hand and found that there was a thin layer of sweat on her palms.
Sister, something happened when you were four years old.
"What's up?"
"You were missing all night. You were found unconscious in the ancestral temple early the next morning, with a jade plaque still clutched in your little hand, which is the one you are wearing now. That time you were in a coma for three days, and when you woke up Even my parents and brother have forgotten it. So if you forget something again this time, your family has experienced it."
What? What a waste of experience!
The original owner really lost her memory, she was just faking it!
Du Qian didn't know. He continued walking and said: "At that time, many ancestors in the clan were alarmed. Some even forced my sister to hand over the jade token. My grandfather was still alive at that time, and no matter how unwilling he was, he had no choice but to nod. . At that time, you were a small ball, crying and handed it over..."
Du Wan didnt feel deeply, as if he was listening to a short story.
Have you handed in the jade plaque?
No, its still there!
Du Qian slightly raised the corners of his lips, "But after handing over the jade token, my sister suddenly fell into a coma again. All the imperial doctors could not find out the cause. Later, the emperor's uncle found out and personally took care of it..."
The matter of the jade plaque could not be concealed, so the emperor asked the Du family to return the jade plaque.
Surprisingly, my sister put on the jade sign and woke up soon after.
Why? Du Wan blurted out and asked.
"Yes, why." When Du Qian said this, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Many people want to know the reason. Later, someone actually found out the origin of the jade plaque from the family classics, saying that it was left by the first ancestor. The inherited jade has always been hidden in the ancestral hall, and only those who are destined can get it."
This time it was Du Wan's turn to sweat on her palms.
That little heart is pounding...
Du Qian paused and said, "Here we are, this is the courtyard where you have lived for many years. Do you remember it?"
"No."
The two of them were standing in front of an elegant courtyard.
In front of the courtyard door, there is a horizontal plaque - Yulingyuan.
More than a dozen servants, with their eyebrows lowered and their eyes submissive, were waiting respectfully.
Standing in front are four beautiful little maids, nodding their heads and lowering their eyebrows, with good manners.
Du Qian said, "They are the new maids in your courtyard. From the left, they are Ningqin, Luoqi, Shuxiang, and Huayi."
"new?"
"Yes, it's new. If you find it easy to use it, keep using it. If not, throw it away." Du Qian didn't mention the servants who used to serve in Yulingyuan.
In any case, he is either dead or sent out.
A group of incompetent slaves are kept to fend off their master?
Du Wan was running around in the yard.
You can see wealth, luxury and meticulous craftsmanship everywhere.
Seeing this, Du Qian had no choice but to give her instructions, "Ningqin, playing chess, and going to prepare a bath and burn incense for the lady. Shuxiang goes to the kitchen to prepare some dishes that the lady likes to eat."
The three maids named were ordered to go about their business.
Du Qian then said: "Huayi, go and make a bowl of ginseng tea."
Yes, slave, lets go now.Updat𝒆d fr𝒐m nov𝒆lb(i)n.c(o)m
Du Qian gave this order and arranged it properly.
Du Wan, on the other hand, was confused the whole time and was led by the little maid to take a bath and burn incense. I drank a cup of warm ginseng tea on the way.
