Chapter Eighty-Eight: Sister Hui is sick

Since the beginning of summer, it has been scorching for days, but it rained a lot last night, and the weather was cold at first glance, and Sister Hui got up early in the morning and suffered from the cold.

The ink painting who was keeping vigil hurriedly called Zhou's mother to come over, and after some investigation, he saw that her forehead was hot, and immediately hurriedly ordered the ink painting to go to Shoukang Hall to report the news and go to the doctor himself.

After a while, the ink painting came back with the old lady's care: "Miss, the old lady has already ordered someone to ask for a doctor, and specially ordered that you don't need to go to ask for peace this morning, just rest for a good life." ”

"You too, you have to get up in the middle of the night to get up and drench in cold water, and after drenching, you blow the midnight wind to the window, now it's okay, your body is uncomfortable." While lifting the bed curtain, while chattering, a peach blossom face that was speechless and laughed first on weekdays is black today.

"You go to Shoukang Hall again to help me keep an eye on it, and come back to me at any time if there is a situation." Sister Hui took the ginger tea handed by the ink painting, took a big sip and ordered.

When the ink painting heard this, his eyes wandered around for a while, and finally he fixed it on Sister Hui'er's face, and he did not shy away from being humble and said bluntly: "Miss is not afraid that the slave is an old lady's person, and it is not appropriate to give such an order." ”

"If you follow me, you will be my man." Sister Hui put the empty water cup heavily in the palm of her ink painting, and the corners of her lips hooked up a smile, and she made a sound.

The ink painting took it in a daze, filled the water cup again, handed it to Sister Hui again, and waited for her to drink before squatting and turning around and going out.

Sister Hui was sick, the sisters naturally visited, Sister Yan sent Yun Shu to visit, Sister Lian and Sister Xian came in person but were blocked by Qiu Ju on the grounds that Sister Hui was seriously ill and could not get up to see each other.

Sister Jing didn't arrive yet, but she sent Qiaozhu, the big girl next to her, to deliver a letter. "Our young lady said that this is a letter from Yizhou, and the third young lady will get better sooner if she gets this letter."

Sister Hui suddenly felt suspicious when she heard this, although Yizhou had two close friends, if they had a letter, it would definitely be sent to the Qin family's Beijing suburb village, and they would definitely not arrive in the house.

Moshu took the letter and handed it to Sister Hui'er, as soon as Sister Hui saw the signature, she knew that it was Li Yuyi's letter with the four-character "Zhenhui Qinqi" with Leng Mei's arrogant bones, and she was overjoyed.

"This is written by my friend in Yizhou, I haven't heard from me for many years, the mountains and rivers are long, and I don't want to be received by the fourth sister."

"It's also fate, our lady's nephew next to her is full moon, the day before yesterday the family went to congratulate, and when I came back yesterday night, I saw the messenger entangled with the guards at the gate of the house, and I inquired but said that I was looking for the third lady. It was already night, and the nurse did not dare to let anyone in easily, so she brought the letter in and handed it to the young lady to see, and the young lady asked the slave to send it to you this morning, and said that it must be a letter from the old friend of the third young lady, and the third young lady must be happy. ”

Qiaozhu is about the same size as Moqi, it was personally selected by Qiao's family, and she spoke clearly, affectionately and reasonably, Sister Hui really sighed at Sister Jing'er's friendship after listening to it, and she had to thank the destined nurse for her good life.

"The nurse is a reliable person in the day, the third aunt has a unique vision, and the last time my sister felt that I had a few pots of blue bird water lilies here, she would let the mother-in-law move two pots back with you after a while." The bluebird water lily was very rare at that time, Zhang Guyuan got it from the Nanyang merchant, and transferred the seeds to her, and after she took it, she planted it according to the memory of her previous life, and also cultivated three pots.

"The relationship is good, the slave and the maid will thank the third lady on behalf of the fourth lady, the third lady is so good to give birth, and the slave and maid will go back first."

Qiaozhu smiled and said a blessing and left.

Sister Hui gave Qiu Ju a look, and Qiu Ju went into the back room and took two boxes and chased them out.

"Sister Qiaozhu, these are two eight-treasure boxes specially prepared by the third miss to thank you and the fourth lady's nurse, you can take it back and taste it, and please accept this bag of silver." Outside the courtyard gate, Qiu Ju took out another bag of silver and stuffed it into Qiaozhu's arms.

Qiaozhu took the silver with a frightened face, and bowed her head in the direction of Sister Hui'er's yard and said a word of appreciation to Miss San, and then left with a smile on her face.

Seeing this, Qiu Ju also had to praise this girl, she knew how to be polite and observant, and she advanced and retreated appropriately.

Sister Hui was sick for a day, so she only saw Qiaozhu who came to deliver the letter and the nurse next to Brother Xuan.

On the second day, after drinking the medicine, the sweat and the body was a little lighter, Qiu Ju replied with two messages in succession, and she was physically and mentally happy, and she could get up and sit in the yard and make some ginger tea by herself like making tea.

"Miss, the news that Mo Hua inquired about before was that the county lord was serving the emperor, and looking at the county lord's appearance, it didn't look like a fake, how could it be that he got the title of King Jing's concubine just three days after entering the palace?" Mo Qin listened to Qiu Ju's report and was puzzled.

After speaking, he glanced at the ink painting waiting on the side, hoping that she would solve her doubts.

Mo Hua spread his hands: "I don't know, the slave maid heard the news and sent it from the Dong'an County Mansion early in the morning." ”

"This matter is not good or bad for the county lord, there is no need to investigate the reason in detail, it will be easier to say goodbye in the future." Entering the Jingwang Mansion as a side concubine, in terms of grade, it is promoted, but in terms of the current position of King Jing, it is a place with no future, but fortunately, as long as you don't enter the palace wall, the female dependents walk, there will always be a time to meet.

"It's Brother Xuan'er's matter, you tell me in detail." Sister Hui held a cup of hot ginger tea in her hand, lay on her back on the recliner, and looked at the ink painting.

"Yesterday, Mrs. went to Shoukang Hall to ask for peace, and took the account books of the past two months to the old lady to see, the old lady took a serious look, but the fourth lady said some harsh words like someone stepping on her tail for a while, and looked at the old lady nervously for a while, the old lady did not speak for a long time after reading, and after a long time said to the wife, 'Wait until the autumn harvest, this money will be about enough to be filled, and the expenses in the house will be saved in the past two months.' After the ink painting was finished, Qiu Ju shook her head.

The old lady has been shrewd all her life, but it is rare to give birth to a confused son, and the money earned by the Manfu is not worth the use of Chu Jinli's gold a day, no matter how much the old lady's private treasury is, she is afraid that she will be tightened if she makes up for tens of thousands of taels of silver twice in a row this year.

"And then?" Sister Hui asked

Later, the fourth lady was afraid that she was unwilling, and said some foolish words, saying that the lady was greedy for the silver, but was severely reprimanded by the old lady, but the strange thing is that the lady was not angry at all, and turned to talk about "Mo Hua hesitated, and his eyes glanced straight at Sister Hui'er's face."

"Speaking of what?" Sister Hui took a sip of ginger tea and asked again absentmindedly.

"Let's talk about some expenses in the government that can be cut, and say that as far as the people in Jinyuan are concerned, many people can find a reason to put them outside, so that the government will also have less expenses." The ink painting whispered.

The corners of Sister Hui'er's mouth were slightly hooked, and she could also know later, Qiao's was just a lead, and Xiao Li was naturally happy to push it, and she must have tried her best to drive Brother Xuan out. The old lady didn't like Brother Xuan either, so in order to avoid raising tigers, she naturally felt that it was better to drive them out.

"Did they finally decide to let Brother Xuan go?" Because Aunt Mai seems to have two faces in front of the old lady, a pair of sisters and brothers, which does not consume much, and stays and stays.

"Miss is smart." The ink painting praised, and then hung his head again, as if he also felt that this praise was not appropriate.

"How can the old lady be like this, why don't we make a fuss, and when everyone accuses, the old lady will not dare to do this." Mo Qin immediately said indignantly.

"That's what I want." Sister Hui drank the last sip of ginger tea and said with a light smile.

"Is this a deal between the third lady and the third wife?" When Qiu Ju heard this, she suddenly realized and exclaimed. Although she was sent out of the door that day, she knew that Sister Hui must have something to talk about.
