【original】 Sun Nan Guofan knelt down to report My grandfather, my lord, is blessed and golden. On the fifth day of June, I received a letter from my family. It was sent by my fourth brother in the provincial capital on the tenth day of the sixth month. I am very pleased to know everything!Sun Guofan was in good health within a few days, while Guoquan suffered from the heat on the very day, and after taking a dose of medicine, he recovered the next day.Diarrhea came back on the third day of the first month, and he recovered immediately after taking two doses of medicine. On the 23rd day, his great-grandson Jiasan continued to have diarrhea. I asked Zheng Xiaoshan for diagnosis and treatment. The next day, I asked Wu Zhuru again. It was all due to spleen deficiency and summer heat. I took six doses of medicine within three days. It didn't have much effect either. On the 26th, I invited the king's doctor in Beijing to take cold medicine and gradually calm down.I didn't take medicine for two days on the first and second day of the lunar new year, and the illness is cured right now, but the spleen is still weak, and the body has not recovered.Sun et al. knew that they had carefully adjusted their symptoms, observed that they walked as usual, ate as usual, and recovered without taking medicine, so there was no need to worry about it in class.The eldest grandson's wife is also in good health, and her servants are still the same as before.

Meilin, a fellow villager, fell ill, and in the middle of May, it got worse day by day. She went to bed on the 18th and passed away on the 25th.Mr. Hu Yunge also passed away on the same day and at the same moment.All affairs after Mei Linsheng's death were handled by Chen Daiyun, Li Yueqiao and Sun.In the same year of the Reform Movement of 1898, five hundred taels of gifts were given. Wu Zhenfu's wife (the president of the Reform Movement of 1898) came to Beijing and donated a hundred taels of money.Including the expenses in Beijing and the journey back to the south of Lingshu, only 400 gold will be spent, and the rest can still be used to care for orphans.

From late May to early June, everything was busy, and Sun Quan didn't get to study.I sent articles to Beijing before June, and there were still three articles, which Sun Weixia revised.The Guangdong incident has been successful. More than 200 people who were promoted by military merit and those who wore flower blue feathers copied the upper edict back to the first half, and the names of the people who were promoted in the second half were not copied in full. Yesterday, I received a letter from my family and knew Chu Shanba Uncle Zhushan Wantian was bought by my grandfather last winter. My eighth uncle's house is safe, but my family is even more distressed. I don't know how my grandfather stopped it every week.Last winter this year, how to try?Please see the details in the letter from home.Sun et al. are in Beijing and have no other means of livelihood. They have to borrow money around the beginning of winter, and they cannot send back the money they need to pay for their affairs. It is a shame!Yu Rong continued to report, that is, to report to his grandparents and adults, Wanfu Jinan.Sun knelt down to report. (The seventh day of June in the 21st year of Daoguang)
