Chapter 992: Closing the Net
Zhang's is very attentive to the diet of several children, not only Lian Man'er, but also Wulang and Xiaoqi, as long as they come back from outside, Zhang's family generally prepares tea at the right temperature at home, as well as fresh snacks to cushion their stomachs. If any of the children said they wanted to eat, Zhang was more than happy to cook it himself. She doesn't think it's hard work, on the contrary, she thinks it's a blessing.
Although she is not shrewd and capable, she does not understand many things outside. But in this home, the children need her, and she can do things for the children.
"Mother, after I leave, is Yan Daopo here?" Lian Man'er took the teacup, but did not drink it immediately, but asked Zhang first.
"Well, I've been here." Zhang nodded. Yan Daopo has been here, and the people on all the doors of this house have seen it, even if the Zhang family wants to hide it, they can't hide it.
"Ask her what she is doing in a hurry, you drink the tea first. It's cold now, the tea is cooling fast, and it's going to be cold in a while. Zhang only said this, and then urged Lian Man'er to say.
Don't look at the small cup of tea, but it is Zhang's mother's heart. Even Man'er thought in her heart that she was not in a hurry to ask Zhang's words, so she picked up the teacup and took a sip again.
"What's going on?" Seeing Lian Man'er drinking tea, the expression on Zhang's face softened more and more. "Is this tea delicious today?"
"Not bad." Seeing Zhang's question, Lian Man'er took another sip, "Mother, what's so special about this tea today?" ”
"This is not today, your father went to the Zhuangzi. I just sent someone back, saying that the water from the well on the hill in Zhuangzi was very sweet, and I specially sent two buckets to my house. I tasted it, and it was no worse than the water in our hometown. I usually heard from you that the tea brewed in good water is very fragrant, so I will have people prepare it. Give you a few to drink when you come back. ”
"Oh." Lian Man'er sighed and put down the teacup.
"Shanxi came back just now, didn't you say that you ate at Shen's house, why did you come back now? What's the matter? Without waiting for Lian Man'er to ask Zhang, Zhang asked Lian Man'er first.
"Hmm." Lian Man'er nodded, "Mother, what did Yan Daopo tell you when she came back here?" ”
"Didn't say anything." Zhang thought about it and said.
"Mother. Why am I telling you these days, are we close, or are you close to her? What she told you, you still won't tell me. Lian Man'er complained.
"Look at what you kid said. Needless to say, what is she. I can't be ahead of you. Zhang said, then thought about it again, and then said, "She is really in trouble when she comes back this time." ”
As he spoke, he took something out of his sleeve. It was a clean handkerchief, wrapped in a small bag. Zhang opened the handkerchief. Show Lian Man'er.
"She's sending me this." Zhang told Lian Man'er.
Lian Man'er took the handkerchief from Zhang's hand and carefully examined the pills on the handkerchief. The pill was the size of a dragon's eye, white and smooth.
"This is ......," Lian Man'er asked Zhang.
"I said that it was an elixir, and I originally asked for it for others. They didn't use it, so they brought it to me and said they would let it eat for you. Zhang said, "It's still the same thing she said a few times ago." What a concubine or something, what a boy or something......"
"Let me give you something to eat secretly. Don't let you know. ”
Lian Man'er looked at the pill in her hand for a while, then raised her head again and looked at Zhang Shi and smiled.
"Mother, then why didn't you listen to her and secretly ate this for me?" Lian Man'er asked Zhang with a smile.
"When I'm so stupid!" Zhang glanced at Lian Man'er and said, "Like me and your third uncle, we have done this to be a daughter-in-law, we have given birth and raised, we are all from the past, we are not so particular, we can't talk about some things, and we can withstand anything." You are a little girl's house, how can your mother give you whatever you want. ”
Zhang's words are good, in ordinary life, she is also very careful about Lian Man'er's food and clothing. For example, even in Futian, Lian Man'er is not allowed to eat ice things. I was sick and invited Lang Zhong to see her, although she didn't know how to read or know any pharmacology, she still had to tell Lang Zhong, saying that the little girl's family couldn't stand the medicine that was too cold and too strong.
Not only for Lian Man'er, but also for Lian Zhi'er.
Even if it was originally in the old mansion, with the Zhou family on it, the Zhang family was not very protective of his children. Lian Zhi'er had to follow Zhang's housework when she was very young, but in winter, Zhang was very careful not to let Lian Zhi'er touch the cold water. There is the work of touching cold water, all of which are taken over by Zhang, or they will deliberately boil hot water for Lian Zhi'er.
Zhang has always been very careful in these aspects of his daughter. Of course, this was thanks to her experience in her mother's home. That's how the Li family brought her up, so these things have become her habit.
"Besides, I haven't forgotten what you said to me." Zhang said, "No matter how much I believe her, it can't compare to a few of you." What you say, it's not the same thing when the mother comes. ”
"It must have been Seon-hee who brought something over and told you that she was here. If you don't worry, you'll come back first. If you are superfluous, she will be able to coax away two dollars from me, which is the face of the gods and Buddhas, and also the bitterness of her life. Something else, she won't take away from me. You're going to run back. The Zhang family also counted Lian Man'er.
Lian Man'er just laughed.
"Mother, if I run back superfluously, I'll find out later."
……
The two of them were talking in the house, and at this moment, Yan Daopo had already been led by the little girl to turn left and right, and she was at the back corner door. Suddenly, two people walked over from the side of the road and stopped Yan Daopo with a smile.
"Oops," Yan Daopo raised her eyes to see, she recognized both of them. One is the big girl next to Zhang's side, and the other is the big girl Xiaoxi who serves Wulang. "Miss Duofu, Miss Xiaoxi......"
Yan Daopo was busy with a smile on her face and asked the two of them about it.
The two girls also smiled and blessed Yan Daopo.
“…… Why are you leaving, we sisters have something to ask your old man for help......" The two girls said this, regardless of whether Yan Daopo was willing or not, they hugged her two arms left and right. I walked to a nearby hut.
And at some point, there were two more small servants at the back corner door, and the door was also locked.
……
In the upper house, the conversation between Zhang and Lian Man'er continued.
"Mother, I've already asked people to bring letters to my father and my brother, and I guess they will be back in a while." Lian Man'er said to Zhang.
"This Yan Daopo, she doesn't just want money, she really has that bad heart. Have that guts? Zhang's face was also solemn at this moment.
"I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if. Mother, you forgot what I told you, this Yan Daopo is close to the Qian family, these days. Didn't run over there. If she goes to Qian's house generously like before, I don't doubt her. But she hides her head and tail, and she wants to hide it from others. That Qian Yuchan also recognized her as a godmother. When we don't know that. Mother, think about it again, what she said to you. You can't be unsuspicious, can you? ”
Last time in the Shen family, Qian Yuchan harmed others instead of herself. After that, the Shen family no longer invited the daughters of the Qian family if they had any more drama and wine. Qian Tongzhi because of omissions in official affairs. was also reprimanded by his boss. Immediately, Qian Tongzhi's boss also made a matchmaker for Qian Yuchan, who was a wealthy family somewhere in the west of Liaodong Mansion, and was said to be a distant relative of the boss.
But it's a family business. Although Qian Tongzhi promised well, Qian Yuchan suddenly fell ill. The matter of kissing was delayed.
These things were all told to Lian Man'er by Shen San's grandmother in casual conversation. Grandma Shen San also told Lian Man'er that Qian Tongzhi was resolute in his boss's intention to be a matchmaker, and as long as Qian Yuchan was well, he would immediately let his distant relatives marry Qian Yuchan.
"It's just that unless her illness is never good, she will stay in that yard and never go out again, this family business is a certainty." That's what Grandma Shen San said at that time.
There seems to be an invisible hand behind these things. Lian Man'er understood.
“…… It's a good thing," Lian Man'er said to Shen San's grandmother at the time, "I'm just afraid that her illness won't get better for a while, and the people who are sick are hard to say, and suddenly something happens, something happens, it's not good." ”
"That's what I said," said Grandma Shensan, "let's keep an eye on it." Her father is also a small official in the city, and the sixth master is also concerned about this matter. In such a large area as Fucheng, the people under our noses can still let her go on a business trip, so we have to help her after all, that's it. ”
After that conversation, Lian Man'er was relieved on the one hand, but on the other hand, she couldn't help but have one more thing on her mind. Because she had seen Qian Yuchan's methods, and saw that she was so clever and decisive in her "illness", Lian Man'er had to pay attention to the Qian family and this Qian Yuchan.
She had already found out about the relationship between Yan Daopo and the Qian family, and Grandma Shen San also told her something. Before this, even Man'er just didn't want to see Yan Daopo, and after that, she was really very wary of Yan Daopo.
And the reason why Yan Daopo was not completely forbidden to come and walk around the house was because of another consideration. Seeing that Qian Yuchan of the Qian family is not giving up, he must do something. If Yan Daopo is forbidden like this, I am afraid that they will have other ideas. In that case, it is better to guard against Yan Daopo. The Qian family thought that they were in the dark, and even Man'er was in the light, so they had no intention of calculating it. And Lian Man'er is on guard, the situation of light and darkness is reversed, and everything is under control.
Even Man'er didn't tell Zhang's about these things, but she told Zhang's that Yan Daopo had close contacts with the Qian family, and Qian Yuchan suddenly recognized Yan Daopo as a godmother.
Last time, Qian Yuchan calculated Lian Man'er, although she didn't succeed, but even the family, including the Zhang family, also remembered it. Zhang may not understand something too complicated, but she understands one thing, Qian Yuchan has a chance, and she will definitely plot against Lian Man'er again.
With such psychological preparation, although the Zhang family was willing to give up the money to Yan Daopo, when it came to Lian Man'er, the Zhang family was also wary of Yan Daopo.
