Chapter 669 - Lack of Money
Huang Xiaoxian asked for the land, Yahuan and Xiaowu complained vigorously, they are subordinates, but they can't bear this kind of physical work, Huang Xiaoxian found the master and said that he wanted to call his two brothers in.
Although there are no eunuchs in the Gaomen Mansion, the little servants are not allowed to enter the inner house, and they can only keep up when they go out with the young master of the Bai family.
Huang Xiaoxian knew that there were many rules in the house, and if something went wrong, he would just take the knife on himself, and call the two elder brothers in, so that the little maid and the maids could get rest.
The brothers are also seventeen or eighteen, and they were bullied by their stepmother, in Huang Xiaoxian's limited memory, these two brothers are quite good to her, but they are afraid of this stepmother.
The old man did not embarrass him at all in this matter, and said, "They are coming, if they cause trouble for me, don't think about it for a day." ”
Huang Xiaoxian knew that the two elder brothers were honest people, so he said: "Once the land is planted, let them go back, and if they do a good job, they will stay." ”
When the two elder brothers came, it was as if they had entered heaven, and they couldn't see enough of it.
Huang Xiaoxian solemnly told the two of them, saying: "This is the small garden of Baifu, you eat and live here, you must not walk around, especially not in and out, there are too many female dependents here, if there is anything, we will be finished." ”
The two elder brothers nodded vigorously, they had been oppressed by their stepmother for too long, and once they came out, it was like a caged bird flying into the blue sky, not to mention how happy they were.
The two elder brothers entered the Bai Mansion, and the stepmother scolded her for three days after hearing about it, and scolded Huang Xiaoxian's father for a dog blood spray, saying that he was a straw bag, saying that he was not at ease, and threw a mess to her, he himself was relieved, the girl and son had a stable place, and what should her children do?"
Huang Xiaoxian has no sympathy for this father, who has no feelings at all, except resentment, because in her limited memory, she found that when her stepmother committed domestic violence against them, he either hid or smoked his cigarette without saying a word.
Huang Xiaoxian gave full play to his limited knowledge.
When the potato seedlings first grew, she grafted the tomato sprouts, and she didn't know if she would survive, but she liked to do such experiments.
She also used her own inventions to put peanuts, carrots, sweet potatoes ...... Whatever seeds were planted underground, she grafted them all to other fruits and vegetables, regardless of what could or could not be grafted, and waited for the ripening period to come.
Huang Xiaoxian did these things completely by herself, she didn't want to be like paper, when everyone would know, there would be nothing to do with herself.
Now is the leisure season, in addition to weeding and watering every day, Huang Xiaoxian comes to the field every day to watch, the seedlings are the same every day, no matter how you look at it, I like it in my heart.
The Ninth Young Master slowly became more and more familiar with the two elder brothers, and Huang Xiaoxian found that his two elder brothers not only had a lot of strength, but were also very decent and honest, no matter what Huang Xiaoxian said, they would do it without discount.
Once Huang Xiaoxian said: "You two are my brothers, why don't you have a temper at all?"
Her second brother said, "It's the same when I'm at home." ”
Huang Xiaoxian remembered that once her stepmother beat herself, it was the second brother who stepped forward to block her, and the eldest brother also did such a thing.
"How the hell did my mother die?" asked Huang Xiaoxian one day.
"He who dies of illness is the same disease as his father. ”
"Is Dad really sick?" Huang Xiaoxian asked urgently, she always thought that her stepmother said this in order to ask for money.
"It's really sick, but this kind of disease is not something that people like us can afford, and it costs a tael of silver just to grab the medicine......
"What the hell is the disease?"
"A disease in the brain. ”
"What should I do? Shall we help cure it?" Huang Xiaoxian ran out of ideas, mainly because she hated her stepmother too much.
The eldest brother said, "Even if you are a young grandmother now, this disease is not easy, and it costs a lot of money. ”
"The Bai family has medicine, can you ask for the prescription?"
The eldest brother said, "I know the prescription, but the medicine ...... Several herbs are particularly expensive. ”
Huang Xiaoxian shook his head and said, "No matter what, you write out the recipe, I'll see if the Bai family has it, if not, go outside and buy it." ”
Huang Xiaoxian followed the prescription and found the seven-flavor medicine in the Bai family's medicine storehouse, but it was only one flavor missing. ”
The elder brother glanced at it and said, "The rest of this flavor is the most expensive, and it will cost more than ten yuan to say the least." ”
Huang Xiaoxian gave the money to the eldest brother and asked them to send it home immediately.
When my brother delivered the medicine for the third time, he said with a bitter face: "The person is gone." ”
Huang Xiaoxian knew that except for these two brothers who still had a little relationship with her, she had nothing to do with the Huang family here.
For the sake of his brother, Huang Xiaoxian gave his brother all the silver taels given to him by Mr. Teaching, and he did his part.
Huang Xiaoxian came to the field very early every day, she first played with the young master on the rockery in the garden, and her current skills have improved, and gradually she can be invisible.
Huang Xiaoxian knew that if kung fu was not used, it would be wasted after a long time.
The young master is almost inseparable from her, even if she goes to do the hardest work, the young master follows behind.
At the beginning, Chunmei and Chunhong could still follow, after a long time, not to mention the unpleasant smell of being tired, gradually, they came less, and Huang Xiaoxian didn't blame them, in addition to Chunyue, there was also a spring flower, and the four of them were often together, of course, the elder brother had to avoid them when the maids came.
One day, the young master fell asleep on the chaise longue, and the two elder brothers, who came early, began to hoe and water the grass.
Huang Xiaoxian found a gap and asked the eldest brother, "What are your plans in the future? Now that you have reached the age of starting a family, what can I help you?"
The elder brother smiled honestly and said, "That's a matter of a rich family, I don't dare to think about it." ”
"I should think about it now, although I am a young grandmother, I don't have much money a month, and besides, I am a loose man, and I still don't understand the concept of money, you at least have to buy a house, right?"
My brother blushed, and it seemed that he was thinking about it a lot.
"It's impossible to buy a house, it's best if you can build one. ”
"Cover?" Huang Xiaoxian asked, "Is there a place?"
"How is there not? How much open space is there behind our house? Now people build houses there, it's just ......."
"How much silver do you need?" Huang Xiaoxian was interested, she felt that she must help with this matter.
"I don't dare to think about it, why do I need eight taels or ten taels. ”
Huang Xiaoxian felt that she was two taels a month, and she didn't have a penny on hand now, and if she planted the land, she didn't know how much money she could buy.
