Chapter 409: The Cold

"I'm fine. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Old Lady Xia said with a smile when she saw Xia Zhi asking her.

"Milk, I don't think you're right. Don't hide something. Are you tired, or do you have a cold? Of course, the summer solstice is not so easy to dismiss, and then asked.

Mrs. Xia couldn't hide the summer solstice, so she had to tell her that she was indeed a little cold. "I drank the medicine last night and slept again, nothing serious, just a little boring, just slow down."

Wind chill and cold may have been a trivial matter in the era before the summer solstice, but it was not in this era. Moreover, Mrs. Xia should also feel very uncomfortable. Mrs. Xia has always been diligent and strong, if she didn't hold on, she would never sit by herself, and only let Aunt Xia and Layue clean up there.

"Have you drunk any medicine?" Xia Zhi raised his hand and touched Mrs. Xia's forehead.

Mrs. Xia still seems to be a little uncomfortable. She has cared about and cared for people all these years, and no one has ever cared so much about her. Aunt Xia is naturally close to her, but after marrying into Fucheng, the two of them will save energy every year, and the time together is too little.

Without a thermometer, Xia Zhi can only use this soil method to measure Mrs. Xia's body temperature. Old Lady Xia's forehead was slightly hot.

Fortunately, there is no fever, at most it is a low-grade fever.

"Milk, what are you still sitting on, lie down quickly. I'll ask my third uncle to set up a car to find you a Langzhong. "The summer solstice has begun.

"Don't, don't." Mrs. Xia hurriedly stopped Xia Zhi, "Just shake it off a little, I took medicine at that time, it's no big deal." My own body, I know it myself. ”

Mrs. Xia resolutely refused to allow Xia Zhi to invite Langzhong. It's not that she cares about money, or she doesn't want to stir up the public.

This is the traditional virtue of the ancient working woman.

"Milk, then it's okay if you don't invite Lang Zhong first, don't sit down, lie down and rest." Xia Zhi had no choice but to take a step back.

Mrs. Xia also took a step back, she was no longer reckless, so she went to sit in the kang. Aunt Xia San and Layue also hurriedly walked over to see Mrs. Xia, and Layue also cleverly ran out to deliver a letter to Uncle Xia.

Uncle Xia San was outside with Old Man Xia to talk to people.

"Third aunt, let's make a bowl of ginger soup for my milk, let my milk sweat." Xia Zhi discussed with Aunt Xia.

Although it is a local method, it is especially effective for the wind chill that has just occurred. Aunt Xia agreed, she asked Xia Zhi to accompany Mrs. Xia, and then went out to cut ginger slices and make ginger soup.

"I'm fine. Don't shout for people to know. Mrs. Xia didn't stop Xia Zhi from taking care of herself, but she lowered her voice and told Xia Zhi.

"Milk, what's this?" Xia Zhi didn't understand what Mrs. Xia was afraid of, "The guests are gone, and it's not something you can't say if you're shaking." ”

If people eat whole grains, who can not get sick.

"That's right, I just don't want people to know. After a while, I drank ginger soup and sweated. Mrs. Xia said with a smile.

"Milk, why are you shaking?" Summer Solstice asked.

When she left the backyard last night, Mrs. Xia was fine, but what happened during the night. But Li Xia and Little Black Fish didn't tell her anything.

Xia Zhi sensitively realized that maybe Mrs. Xia didn't want people to know how she was shaking.

"It's nothing, it's just accidentally shaken off." Sure enough, Mrs. Xia's answer was very vague.

Xia Zhi didn't ask any more questions, but just asked Mrs. Xia to take off her coat and lie down on the tight kang. Then Xia Zhi also took a thick quilt and covered it tightly for Mrs. Xia.

"Milk, or you should have a good rest. These two days can make you choke enough. ”

"I'm not tired at all." Old Mrs. Xia said with a smile. She really didn't feel tired at all, on the contrary, she was very happy for the past two days, and it would be no problem to work so busy for a few more days.

The grandfather and grandson were talking, and Layue brought Old Man Xia and Third Uncle Xia back. It turned out that Layue found Uncle Xia and told Mrs. Xia that she was sick. Old Man Xia heard it next to him, so he naturally followed back.

Others don't know what is going on with Mrs. Xia, but Old Man Xia knows it in his heart.

"What's going on?" Old Man Xia asked when he entered the house.

Mrs. Xia was about to get up: "I'm fine." ”

Xia Zhi hurriedly held down Mrs. Xia: "Milk, don't get up, shake it off again." Then Xia Zhi also said to Mrs. Xia, "I see that my grandmother didn't eat this morning, and her face is not right, she is feverish." ”

Old Man Xia was startled, and he also asked Old Mrs. Xia to lie down and not move. "That medicine didn't work yesterday?"

"Why didn't it work? If it doesn't work, I'm afraid I won't be able to get up today. "Because the medicine was bought by Xia Zhi, Mrs. Xia couldn't care about it so much.

"Master, why is my milk shaking?" Xia Zhi was busy and asked Old Man Xia, "I asked my milk, but my milk was not happy to say." I was going to invite Lang Zhong just now, but my grandmother wouldn't let me go. And said don't let people know. ”

Xia Zhi didn't understand why Mrs. Xia did this, but Old Man Xia understood it as soon as he heard it.

He looked at Old Lady Xia, then at Xia Solstice, who was looking at him with wide bright eyes, and then at Third Uncle Xia, who was honestly standing aside with a concerned face. Old Man Xia sighed secretly, he couldn't hide it anymore.

"Your second uncle came to knock on the door in the middle of the night, and your grandmother went to open the door for him, so that the cold wind blew."

"Why does my second uncle have to knock on the door in the middle of the night?" Xia Zhi frowned slightly.

"What else could there be! He wanted to go to Fucheng today and tell me for a long time. It's never a peace of mind. Old Man Xia was also very annoyed in his heart.

"My second uncle too. He can't wait until this morning to say ah. How old is my grandmother, and I still have to serve him! Xia Zhi said very unceremoniously.

Old Man Xia had nothing to say.

Mrs. Xia still had to say good things for Second Uncle Xia: "I went to open the door, it's also due, no one thought of it." ”

Of course, Second Uncle Xia didn't mean to freeze Mrs. Xia, but this kind of inconsiderate approach to others for his own purposes is very problematic in itself.

"Master, you're too used to my second uncle!" Xia Zhi blamed Old Man Xia.

Old Man Xia was silent. This big family, Xia Zhi dared to say this about him. But although the little granddaughter said righteous words, she still seemed to have a hint of coquettishness. Old Man Xia couldn't be angry with Xia Zhi, on the contrary, he still thought about Xia Zhi's words very carefully.

Perhaps, he is really a little too used to his second son.

Old Man Xia is actually not a man who is used to children, but there is a deviation in the two sons. The only reason is because the mother-in-law of these two sons went early, and then he continued to marry Mrs. Xia.

When Mrs. Xia entered the door, on the one hand, Mr. Xia took pity on the two sons for losing their mothers at a young age, and on the other hand, he was particularly afraid of the comment that if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather.

Xia Xiucai is better, but Second Uncle Xia is very good at exploiting loopholes.

And Mrs. Xia just wanted to discipline these two sons left by the first room, but she was too strict with them. Don't look at her getting along with Mrs. Wu now, she looks like a sister. When she first arrived at Xia's house, Mrs. Wu was also suspicious of her, and she found an excuse to come to Xia's house almost every day, just to see if Mrs. Xia treated her two nephews poorly.

At that time, Mrs. Xia had to consider for a long time what she said about Xia Xiucai and Second Uncle Xia, otherwise she would accidentally make Old Man Xia or Mrs. Wu too distracted.

After a long time, when Mrs. Wu realized that Mrs. Xia was a good woman, some of the bad problems of Xia Xiucai and Second Uncle Xia had long been ingrained and could no longer be corrected.

At this time, Aunt Xia San had already boiled a thick ginger soup and served it. Old Man Xia hurriedly stepped aside and asked Mrs. Xia to quickly drink the ginger soup while it was hot.

"Let's let the third set of cars go and invite a Lang Zhong to show you." Old Man Xia said to Old Mrs. Xia.

"No, you don't." Because everyone wanted to invite her to Langzhong, Mrs. Xia knew that it was not enough to simply refuse. She said what she was going to do. "I'm sweating first, if I still feel heavy, let's invite Lang Zhong again. …… It's not a big deal. ”

This is what ordinary dealers do when they encounter this kind of thing.

Everyone had to rely on Mrs. Xia.

Mrs. Xia drank the ginger soup and lay down, and the little black fish ran back from outside.

"Mother, mother, what's wrong with you?" The little black fish was anxious when she saw the appearance of Mrs. Xia.

"I'm fine. Just get some sleep. Mrs. Xia hurriedly said.

"Mother, you must be shaking. I heard you sneeze last night. It's all my second brother's fault. "The little black fish's clever little head turned a little and found the culprit." I'll go to him. ”

"Don't, don't." Mrs. Xia was busy holding the little black fish.

Xia Solstice also helped to pull the little black fish.

The little black fish's eyes were red. In his memory, Mrs. Xia has always been in good health, and there is almost no time when she is sick. So now that he sees Mrs. Xia like this, he can't stand it.

"My second brother is the troublemaker." The little black fish shouted loudly.

I don't know if Second Uncle Xia heard it, anyway, no one in the east wing showed up.

"He didn't mean to, either." Xia Zhi persuaded the little black fish, "Uncle, you can play with me." Let my milk sleep well. When we get back, my milk will be fine. If my milk is not good, let's go to him again. ”

"That's fine." The little black fish listened to Xia Solstice's words very much, and the key was Xia Solstice's temper towards him.

"You all have to do what you want. Let you~ your mother lie quietly. Old Man Xia spoke.

Everyone was also afraid of disturbing Mrs. Xia, so they all came out of the upper house. Xia Zhi also quietly instructed Layue to let her burn a fire for the big stove after a while, so that the kang could be kept at a certain temperature all the time, which would help Mrs. Xia sweat.

"Sister, don't worry, I'll come to see our milk in a while." The wax moon reassures the summer solstice.

"Okay, I'll come over and cook at noon." Xia Zhi said again.

"My mother can just cook. Sister, what kind of food are you cooking at noon? ”

"Isn't there still so much to cook, just do anything. Let's boil a bowl of japonica rice porridge for our mother, add more ginger to it, and chop the ginger a little. Xia Zhi said again, and then said busily, "I'll boil the porridge, you and my third aunt will boil more water and prepare lunch." ”

Without any instructions from Old Man Xia and Old Lady Xia, the two little girls arranged the family affairs properly.

Xia Zhi didn't let the little black fish go outside to play, so he led him to the front yard.

In the east room, Tian was talking to Xia Xiucai. The eldest girl and the second girl were in the house, and Tian did not avoid them.

“…… I'm an old mother now, and other old mothers can still make money, but I don't have anything. She picked up Xia Xiucai, and Xia Xiucai also came forward to find Old Man Xia, but the result was very different from what she expected.

Xia Xiucai not only failed to convince Old Man Xia, but was treated by Old Man Xia (this is Tian's dialect).

Tian didn't make any more trouble after that, not because she repented, but because she saw it clearly, no matter how much she made a fuss, things would no longer have a turn for the better.

Xia Xiucai, who has always been a good worker, is not useful, Xia Zhi is in charge of the family, and she has no status in this family, this is impossible to change.

"When will you go back to Fucheng after the New Year?" Tian asked Xia Xiucai.

"I have to go back after the fifth day of the new year." Xia Xiucai replied honestly.

"Then I'll go back with you." Tian said.

She has been thinking about this for a long time. In Daxingzhuang, she can't turn over, but by Xia Xiucai's side, she should still be the Xiucai lady who says everything.

"Okay." Xia Xiucai never rejected Tian, "How long do you plan to stay?" ”

"Wait until now. I'll live with you in Fucheng from now on. Anyway, I don't need me in this family, I'll go to Fucheng to take care of you, maybe you can be admitted to the lifting of people sooner. You fight for a breath, and it also saves me from always looking at other people's faces in a low voice. ”

Xia Xiucai didn't expect that Tian planned to go to Fucheng with him to live permanently.

The house provided by the academy can live in him and the Tian family. However, ......, Xia Xiucai subconsciously glanced at the kang tip. The eldest girl and the second sister are both sitting on the kang.

"By the way, there's still a big girl's business......"

When Xia Zhi and Little Black Fish came into the house, they happened to hear Tian and Xia Xiucai talking about the big girl.

Tian asked Xia Xiucai to find a way to get the eldest girl and Shopkeeper Liu back together. “…… The eldest girl has no one else, just you, the uncle, can give her a head. You are so talented, you talk to Shopkeeper Liu, can Shopkeeper Liu give you this face! ”

Saying this, Tian also coaxed Xia Xiucai to say that Shopkeeper Liu had no love for the eldest girl. "The two of them are getting along. Shopkeeper Liu is reluctant to be a big girl, that is, he lacks a step. ”

"I don't know the shopkeeper Liu, either." Xia Xiucai was very embarrassed.

"When we meet, we don't know each other. If you want to see him, that is to give him a face. The eldest girl has watched it for the rest of her life. "Tian's meaning, Xia Xiucai has to get this done anyway.

Xia Xiucai is really embarrassed. For him, this kind of thing is much more difficult than saving money to send silver to the old Tian family of the backer.

The arrival of the summer solstice is like a savior for Xia Xiucai.

"Sixteen, come on, look at this thing......"

Even Xia Xiucai didn't ask for help, and Xia Zhi couldn't watch him being surrounded by Tian.

"Mother, why are you giving my father an empty bridge?" As soon as Xia Solstice opened his mouth, he was not polite.
