Jiang Rong stood outside the fenced courtyard, watching this scene from a distance.
Chi Moyan ten years ago was just a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a coarse linen clothes and having a thin figure.
Facing his mother who was crying for him, he lowered his head and looked embarrassed.
He is completely different from the treacherous minister in his previous life who was feared by the world.
Even if he is as ruthless as Chi Moyan, he still has the softest side in front of the people he cares about most.
Jiang Rong knocked on the door lightly and called loudly, "Is anyone there?"
Both mother and son in the courtyard turned around.
Chi Moyan was very shocked. The Crown Princess...why are you here?
"Who is this?" Chi Mu asked in surprise.
Chi Moyan said, "This is the Crown Princess of the North, and that study is her property."
Chi Mu was shocked when she heard this. Princess of the North, what are you doing here for no reason?
Could it be that her son was guarding the study these days, and something wrong happened to him?
Thinking of this, Chi's mother turned pale and hurriedly came forward to greet her. She knelt down and bowed: "A commoner's wife pays homage to the Crown Princess. May the Crown Prince be safe! The son of a commoner's wife behaves stupidly. If he offends anyone, it is the fault of the people." The women failed to teach them well, and all the blame lies with the women.”
"Mother..." Chi Moyan looked at his mother who was kneeling in a panic and kowtowed, and tears of sadness almost fell down.
This is the sorrow of ordinary people.
They have no power.
Chi's mother was deeply afraid that he would offend others, so she tried her best to take the responsibility for him.
"Old madam, please get up quickly." Jiang Rong helped him up, "Your Majesty helped us in the study, and I came here specifically to express my gratitude today. Jade——"
Jade immediately delivered the large and small gift boxes she was carrying:
"This is the thank you gift prepared by our Crown Princess."
Chi's mother breathed a sigh of relief. It's okay if she didn't come here to ask questions... Thank you? Mo Yan helped the study?
Chi Moyan didn't want his mother to know about his injury, so he didn't tell her about his "brave action".
"The Crown Princess is too polite." Chi Moyan's heart skipped a beat, and he was vaguely wary.
It's just a thank you gift, the Crown Princess won't come to visit in person. What does she want to do with him?
Chi Mu was sure that the visitor was not hostile, so she felt relieved and turned to be very attentive: "The royal concubine's presence really makes us shine. Please come in quickly..."
As she said that, she handed the fan to Chi Moyan and kept winking at him.
That great scholar came from the imperial concubine's study.
The same goes for giving this fan to the Crown Princess as a sign of sincerity!
Send it quickly.
Chi Moyan had no choice but to pretend not to see it, clutching the fan tightly and holding on to the few things that were truly worthy of his care.
When Chi's mother saw that he was unmoved, Jian was going to be furious. This stupid kid didn't understand the world at all.
"Prince Princess, I...my son is very good at reading and is diligent in his studies. He just lacks the guidance of a famous teacher..." Chi's mother then tried to build relationships with her son who she regarded as a stupid person.
Jiang Rong smiled and said, "Well, I have read Chi Moyan's article, and it is very good. Mrs. Chi, it seems that one of your eyes is not very good, so I will bring a doctor to take a look at it for you."
"This...is too troublesome for you..." Chi's mother was flattered.
Chi Moyan's eyes lit up.
The miracle doctor who follows Prince Bei may be able to cure his mother's eyes!
Xiao Nanxing smiled and said, "No trouble, no trouble, old lady, please reach out and let me feel your pulse..."
Xiao Nanxing put his finger on the pulse, then shook his head and sighed: "Unfortunately, the old lady's left eye has been suffering from eye disease for three years, and it is difficult to recover. However, the right eye can still be saved by taking medicine from now on."
"Mom, what's wrong with your right eye?" Chi Moyan was shocked.
Chi Mu hesitated and said, "I haven't been able to see clearly lately... I was afraid that you would be worried, so I didn't tell you. But the doctor said it can be saved, so it's nothing serious!"
"You also gradually lost sight of your left eye like this... Did you start doing needlework again behind my back?" Chi Moyan asked anxiously.
Fortunately, the Crown Princess came today and found out in time. Otherwise, in a few days, wouldn't my mother also be blind in the other eye?
Chi Mu said vaguely, "I haven't done much...occasionally..."
Xiao Nanxing revealed, "Your right eye is good, but it has been too taxing on your eyes in the past two years. You must not do things that tax your eyes again in the future and let your eyes have a good rest."
Two years...
Chi Moyan felt heavy.
After they came to the capital last year, he fell ill several times due to acclimatization. It must be that his mother took over the embroidery job because he wanted to see a doctor...
"I'll give you a prescription. Drink it three times a day for two months." Xiao Nanxing carefully checked Chi Mu's eyes again and finally said:
"Don't worry, this can be cured."
Chi Moyan's mood eased a little, he bowed his hands to Xiao Nanxing sincerely:
"Thank you, the miracle doctor!"
Then he respectfully presented the fan that he was reluctant to give away to Jiang Rong:
"The Crown Princess saved my mother. It is a great kindness that I cannot repay. This is the only fan in the house that is worth seeing. I give it to the Crown Princess!"
Jiang Rong glanced briefly and recognized that this was a thousand gold embroidery worth thousands of gold.
Yi Chi Moyan's family situation doesn't look like he can afford it.
"This is embroidered by an old woman. The craftsmanship is crude. I hope you don't dislike it." Chi Mu said hurriedly.
She originally hoped to use this fan to find a wife for her son.
But the Crown Princess treated her and she should give her a gift as a thank you. I can only think of ways to prepare the apprenticeship ceremony for my son.
Jiang Rong was thoughtful. It turned out that this was the reason why Chi Moyan refused to give the fan.
"You're welcome. This fan... is very exquisite. I really like it." Jiang Rong smiled slightly and said:
"I just heard from you that Mr. Ling is short of a famous teacher, and we happen to have a great scholar in our study. Mr. Chi, would you like to become a disciple of Qianqiu?"
Chi Moyan was shocked, reacted, and bowed, "That's what you wish for!"
Chi Mu was very excited. She was even happier than when she learned that her eyes were saved. She hurriedly said:
"Thank you, Crown Princess! Crown Princess, you are like a compassionate Bodhisattva in the temple! Thank you!"
"Old Madam, you're welcome. Young Master Ling is very talented, just what the Northern Palace needs."
……
Jiang Rong didn't stay long and left after saying a few words to Chi's mother.
Chi Moyan was about to go to the city to grab medicine.
Jiang Rong gave him a ride.
He didn’t have a bullock cart at home.
Every time I go to the city, I walk on my feet, and the journey is quite long. But the advantage of having a yard in the suburbs is that it doesn’t cost money.
"This fan has a special meaning. Keep it as a thought and return it to you." Jiang Rong handed the thousand-gold embroidered fan to Chi Moyan.
She put away the fan in front of Chi Mu, just to make her feel at ease.
To prevent mother and son from arguing about this matter again.
She could understand the meaning of this fan to Chi Moyan.
His mother worked so hard for him. This is not a fan, but a heavy maternal love.
How could he be willing to give it to those insignificant people.
"Prince Princess, you are the only one worthy of using it." Chi Moyan said seriously.
