Chapter 35: Dilemma
Jin Wen looked at the maid sending the doctor out, looked down at the box of ointment in his hand, and said secretly in his heart: Old man, I'm sorry for you, I must not be selected, so I have to let your medical skills be stained.
After the maid sent the doctor out, she came back quickly, picked up the box of ointment and said, "I'll help you wipe it", and lowered her head to carefully rub the ointment for Jinwen, and couldn't help complaining that it was a country girl who didn't know the rules and didn't know how to see it.
Jin Wen looked at her looking down and touching the ointment, and naturally knew that she must have a complaint in her heart, anyway, she was going to leave tomorrow, so she didn't want to do it too deliberately, so she asked her to apply the ointment to herself first.
After the maid smeared the ointment, she waited for Jinwen to lie down, blew out the lamp again, said "You have a good rest", and retired.
Jin Wen breathed a sigh of relief, lay at the head of the bed for a long time, and after making sure that there was no one outside, he hurriedly got up from the bed, picked up the embroidered handkerchief and was just about to wipe off the ointment, and then burst the blisters.
She hurriedly lay down quietly and waited quietly.
After a few people stood outside the door, one of them knocked on the door and said, "Miss Han, are you resting?" ”
"I've rested, what's the matter?"
"My wife heard that you were injured and came to visit."
Madam? In the backyard of this county government, the one who can be called a lady must be the county lady, what are you doing to visit yourself so late at night? Jin Wen hurriedly said "Please come in", put on his clothes and opened the door.
I saw two maids standing outside the door, and two mothers-in-law carrying lanterns, and a middle-aged woman wearing brocade in the middle, with shrewdness between her eyebrows and eyes, slowly walked in.
Jin Wen only felt puzzled, if he was already a show girl who was going to Beijing, it would be understandable that Mrs. Zhixian would be courteous, anyway, she was just polite, if she went to Beijing and became the person next to the prince, Yu Zhixian would have one more way in the future, but now she is not even a serious show girl, and even whether Yunzhou Mansion can choose or two, I heard that I was injured, so I came to visit late at night?
This kind of diligence is inevitably excessive.
Looking at Mrs. Yu's appearance, she doesn't look like a good person.
Jin Wen decided to respond to all changes with no change, and after seeing her enter, he said softly: "Meet Madame." There were some minor injuries, and Mrs. Lao came to visit late at night, and the people really didn't dare to be. ”
When Mrs. Yu heard this, a country girl talked like this, her eyelids raised, and after looking Jinwen up and down a few times, she said with a smile: "I heard that Miss Han was injured, and it was because I didn't discipline my subordinates well, so that the maid was not well served, so I came to visit, the girl's house, can not leave any scars." ”
Jin Wen was shocked, and hurriedly smiled and said: "Madam is too polite, the folk girl is really ashamed, don't blame the sister just now, I did things recklessly." ”
"Miss Han, can I sit down and talk?"
"It's my rudeness, please take a seat." Jin Wen hurriedly asked her to sit down in the main seat, and sat in the guest seat by herself, her hands on her knees, and her posture was tall and leaned forward slightly.
Mrs. Yu looked at it and once again determined that Jinwen was not a country girl, this kind of conversation, this kind of insight, this kind of etiquette and action, only big families have it, I don't know how it ended up in Wangjia Village.
But it has nothing to do with herself, she is still a rootless country girl who is easy to deal with, Jinwen herself doesn't say her family background, she happily doesn't ask Jinwen's origins, she just waved her hand, "You guys go outside and wait first", and the few people she brought withdrew.
Jin Wen looked at this, and felt even more strange in his heart, he didn't know this Mrs. Yu, what did she come to talk to herself alone late at night?
Mrs. Yu sat and looked at Jinwen a few times, this girl is indeed very good-looking, sitting there with a calm and comfortable face, she has also seen a lot of people, this girl is not a little cramped, compared to the young ladies of the squire's family she has seen, it looks even better than the young ladies of the squire's family she has seen.
After she heard the news that the girl who lived in the guest room had been burned by the oil lamp, she felt strange, there was a maid to take care of her, and it was impossible to get burned, so she called the maid who came to serve to ask the reason, she was sure that the girl did not want to be selected as a show girl, so she used this method to ensure that she would not be selected.
In the afternoon, she just lived in the inner courtyard of the county government, and in the evening she found an opportunity to burn her hands, but this girl should be decisive, she has courage, and she doesn't seem to be a vain person.
You must know that in today's world, men want to gain fame and fortune once they become famous, and there are also many women who beg for a noble son-in-law from now on, and there are not many women like Han Jinwen who are willing to be disabled in order not to be selected as a show girl, and the girl has a scar on her body, and her husband will be ugly in the future.
It's a pity that it's not as simple as the draft now, if she has the courage to splash lamp oil on her face, then it will really be white, Mrs. Yu looked at the young and delicate face, and thought secretly.
"Miss Han grew up in Wangjia Village since she was a child?" She couldn't help but ask.
"My family suffered, and I lived in Wangjia Village after I was nine years old." Jin Wen didn't intend to hide that she wasn't a native of Wangjia Village, and she couldn't hide it anyway, but she didn't plan to elaborate either, if Mrs. Yu was interested in her background, she would have inquired in detail just now, and now she said it casually.
"I can see that the girl's previous tutor was very good, and I think the girl is also a smart person." Mrs. Yu pondered for a moment, and then said, "It's a pity that Miss Han's appearance is buried in the mountain village. ”
"Mrs. is too loving, and the people's daughter's family has suffered many accidents, just to live in peace. The magpie stepped on the branches, which was a blessing to be cultivated in a few lifetimes, and the folk girl was afraid that she would not have this blessing. ”
"Even if you don't get elected, if you have a big family, it's not difficult to be an aunt." Mrs. Yu said lightly.
After hearing this, Jin Wen immediately said: "Don't dare to hide from Mrs., my father and mother have taught me since childhood, girls' families should be poor and happy, husbands and children, and they must not climb rich and seek wealth, and be willing to fall." Although the aunt is well-dressed and well-fed, the folk girl does not dare to insult the family. ”
This was said categorically, and Mrs. Yu sighed slowly, "Since Miss Han has said this, then I'll say it directly." My lord somewhere learned that the girl has an excellent character and wants to take you as a concubine, but I pity the girl for such a good character, it would be a pity if you were a concubine", she said slowly, "So I arranged for the girl to be selected as a show girl, if the girl is elected, then the road from then depends on the girl's life." If the girl is not elected, when my lord comes back from Yunzhou, I am afraid that someone will be arranged to come to your house to talk to the matchmaker immediately. ”
