Chapter 38 (5) Ping'er - should drop a pass

After the facts of Sister Feng's case were revealed one by one, Jia Lian didn't even know about half of them. He was very angry; My heart is burning even more. At this time, Ping'er was the only housewife in the room. Ping'er couldn't bear Sister Feng's distress, and several times she wanted to come forward willingly to suffer on Sister Feng's behalf and redeem the Lord with her own body.But this is not only forbidden by the government, but Jia Lian also does not nod.He said: If you are gone, I will not be able to live alone anymore. Besides, sister Qiao has a poor child. She cries for her mother every day, which makes people feel sad. The child is innocent. You have to take care of this child, which is to repay your grandma. It's a bad thing.

After hearing this, Ping'er was helpless, not to mention that Jia Lian's words were also reasonable, so she had to stay at home to support the situation in every possible way, and take care of Qiao, but she couldn't let go of the suffering of Sister Feng in prison.Fortunately, Jia Yun and Xiaohong, who were on the back porch, came to visit and ask questions from time to time, helping each other and going out of their way.So Ping'er asked the two of them that I can't get out of the prison for matters in the prison. You should take care of the second grandma anyway, and I will be grateful.With tears all over his face.

Xiaohong said: "Why do you wait for sister Ping to tell you about this matter? He and I always go to see it every two days. We are thoughtful, so sister can rest assured. It's just one thing, the second grandma's illness , it was not serious when I was at home, let alone that place? When I went there last time, I saw that she was already pitifully thin, and we would take everything else. Only this medicine, we are young, and we don’t understand it. Doctors, but there is no way. In my opinion, it is the most important thing to quickly find some good medicines and take them with us."

One sentence reminded Ping'er, and said: "I was also confused by the matter, and I didn't even think about it. Thank you for mentioning me!" Go into the back room to look for it.After a while, he came out, sighed, and said: "It's God's will, usually all kinds of medicines are available, and those who like to give alms to others for treatment, but when it comes to me, there is nothing now - the medicine box is empty. There is only one prescription left in it." Xiaohong then said: "Isn't there someone from the pharmacy in our mansion? I remember it's the young masters Chang and Ling who are in charge. Why don't you ask them?"

Upon hearing this, Jia Yun stood up and left, saying, "I'll go right away." After going there for half a day, Jia Yun came back empty-handed. Ping'er and Xiaohong hurriedly asked what was going on, but Jia Yun said, "I went to the pharmacy, but I didn't see Brother Chang and Brother Ling, but suddenly Mr. Huan came out, and when he saw it was me, he looked up and asked, 'What are you doing here? "How dare I mention the word Second Mistress. I just said that my family is sick and I came to find some pills. He didn't ask what medicine, just said:" You don't come in and wander around in the future. There is a lot of things being lost in the house. Who knows who has clean hands and feet? It's not clean!' I had to back out. There's something strange about this...."

Ping'er listened, but said nothing.After a long while, he said, "You have to go to Mrs. Bao's house in your spare time. Just take what Lian's second master said, and come and find a good medicine for bleeding arrhythmia. Afterwards, the price of the medicine will be sent together in two parts." Yun answered.Half a day later he said: "The efficacy of this medicine cannot be determined overnight. Second Aunt's going on like this is not a problem. I'm afraid something will happen. In my opinion, it's better for me to find a way to find someone to see in the prison and report the disease. It is the best policy to beg for release due to illness and to recuperate at home."

Hearing this, Ping'er was so happy that she got up and thanked Jia Yun, and said: "I will entrust all this to you two, please rescue her, or you can save her life..." The husband was not old, so he came out again, Pass them a silk bag, and say that you can take this to reform and pay for the prison.When I opened it face to face, there was an exquisite small box with a small lock; when I opened the lock, I saw a white jade comb with a phoenix head, which was very elegant and lovely in carving; Pearls and rubies, dazzling. Ping'er said: "This is your Uncle Bao's birthday that year. The sisters heard that I was also on April 26th, the same day as the second master. The word spread, and it reached the old lady's ears. The old man was very happy, especially Give me this jewelry.

I hide it as a treasure, and I don't like to dress up all my life, and I only cherish these two unusual things I bought.Today you take it away, no matter what, just ask for a good imperial physician and put him in prison. " All three were in tears, Ping'er sent them to the gate of the courtyard and watched them go out.
