Chapter 100: A Good Errand I
In the wing room next to the second gate, a woman in her early thirties a year, pushing her daughter with a smile on her face, asking her to ask for a blessing from He Zhang's family, a beautiful girl about 14 years old, with a stinky face full of displeasure, her mouth was so pale that she could almost hang a few catties of pork!
He Zhang's expression was faint, "Sister-in-law doesn't have to be polite!" โ
"Alas! Your niece is not sensible, please bear with her in the future and teach her a little more. The woman pushed her daughter again, "Ah Xiu, thank you to your aunt!" The girl shrugged her shoulders and twisted away her mother's clutches, and her mother's hand immediately poked her back fiercely, causing the girl to frown in pain and turn her head to look at He Zhang's house.
I feel that it is all this woman's fault, if it weren't for her idleness and taking a fool to her shop to hang out, how could her father and mother be whimsical and want her to be a maid and wait for someone, tsk 9 is waiting for a little fool!
The corners of He Zhang's forehead twitched, "Sister-in-law said this, I am on an errand next to the girl, so what if I have time to teach her?"
"Why aren't you available? Isn't she going to be with you in the future, waiting for the girl?" The woman talked to herself, completely ignoring whether others liked it or not, and insisted on stuffing her daughter to Fan Anyang's side as a maid.
He Zhang's family was speechless, and she didn't understand how things had evolved to this point, she thought back to yesterday's response, and didn't say that his daughter was going to be a maid next to the sixth girl? And what is this woman's attitude? Hard-stuffed?
"Mother, I said I didn't want it, didn't you hear it? I don't want to wait for people, let alone ask me to wait for a little fool. The woman was stunned for a moment, and immediately waved her hand at her daughter. Ah Xiu's reaction was also sensitive, thinking that she was usually well-trained, the woman chased her daughter and peeked at He Zhang's house, and saw her looking down and drinking tea, as if she didn't see it. Neither persuaded nor spoke, couldn't help lowering his hand, no longer chasing his daughter, Ah Xiu saw this and retracted his feet and shrank aside.
"I'm really embarrassed to make my younger siblings laugh."
He Zhang's smile was silent, the woman didn't know how to take it, she came, one wanted to find an errand for her daughter and son. The second is to change her husband to a good errand. The spice shop business they are looking at now is really unsatisfactory. It's a shame that the old lady doesn't care, so she can't get up or down, but the old lady doesn't care about the amount of money earned by the shop. His family is not good and always hangs like this, the old lady is not young, how many years can she live? Once the old lady returns to the West, the property under her name is bound to change, do you have to wait until that time to seek a future?
The old man is right, this opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if you can devote yourself to the name of the Fan family as a servant, it is better than sticking to the spice shop!
Besides, her daughter is smart enough, if she can wait by the stupid girl of the Fan family. In the future, it will not be difficult to marry a girl and be an aunt! As for the son, whether it is the young master of the Fan family, if he can go to them on an errand, are you afraid that he will not have a good future in the future?
It's just that there is a situation here with her daughter alone, and her mouth is dry, and He Zhang's daughter-in-law just refuses to open her mouth and accept it.
The woman gritted her teeth and was about to make a big move, but she heard two maids running in shouting, "Sister-in-law He, sister-in-law He!" The six girls are clamoring for you to go. โ
"Hurry, hurry! If it drags on any longer, it will be bad for the six girls to cry for a while! โ
He Zhang's family got up in a hurry, and almost even the embroidery pier was overturned by her, she was in a hurry to leave, the woman hurriedly opened her mouth to stop, it was not done today, I am afraid that it will not be easy to come again!
"Sister-in-law, forgive me, the six girls are clamoring to see me, I have to hurry over." He Zhang's family hurriedly gave a salute and turned around and left.
"Don't worry, don't worry! Bring Ah Xiu over to meet the six girls! I guarantee that the sixth girl will definitely like her when she sees Ah Xiu, hey! Feed! The woman shouted hurriedly, but He Zhang's family left quickly without looking back, and the two maids and their blessings also followed.
The maid waiting in the hall quietly looked down, and then turned to the door to snicker, "I don't know the countryman who came, don't you know that there are rules for picking maids and maids at home?"
"Isn't it, who dares to use her daughter's virtue? Didn't bring your own daughter! "In front of outsiders, I dare to talk to my mother, and I run to chase my mother, this is not easy to be a mother, in someone else's house, I will chase and beat my daughter!
"That's it!" Both the mother and daughter are rude, the old one forces people to take her daughter as a servant, and the younger one is unobtrusive and untaught! When people are stupid, they can't rub them?
After He Zhang's family left, the housekeeper took someone to see off the guests, the woman wanted to play tricks on the errand that left her daughter and son behind, but when she saw a few mothers-in-law with round arms and thick waists behind the housekeeper, and then looked at her own thin arms, she had to touch her nose and go out of the second door, pulling her son who was waiting by the door to leave, and the housekeeper was busy letting people send Miss Axiu out.
"This lady is going well, but don't forget your daughter! I'm so embarrassed! There is no shortage of people in our family, and it is not good to take the daughter you worked hard to raise as a slave in vain, so you should take it back! The housekeeper's mouth was clear and her voice was loud, and the carriages, horses, and pedestrians who came and went could hear it clearly, and when they heard it, they couldn't help pointing at the woman and her party.
The woman's face was swollen and red, ashamed and angry, and Ah Xiuyuan had to argue a thing or two, but her brother pulled the person away with a force.

The spring afternoon sun lazily sprinkled through the branches and leaves of the old trees on the floor tiles, and in the side hall of the main courtyard of the Fang family, there was a sudden clatter, and the two maids who were about to enter the side hall with tea were so frightened that they stopped, and the two exchanged surprised and uncertain looks.
Madame, is this making trouble like that again?
The maid in front of the fight took a big step back and bit her ear with her companion: "Isn't Madame happy in the morning?"
"Well, the steward of the Jiang family embroidery village said that it will definitely be delivered today." The maid glanced at her companion, "Didn't you hear that too?"
"Could it be ......" Before they went to make tea, they heard the little maid's report that the housekeeper who went to Jiang's embroidery village came back, and she could make Mrs. angry and smash things, shouldn't the Jiang family's embroidery family break their promise again?
In the side hall, Mrs. Fang, who was at the top, turned pale, glared at the servant woman kneeling in front of her and said sharply, "You say it again?"
The servant woman trembled like chaff, and said the words of Shicai again in a trembling voice. "Damn! This Jiang family embroidery village is really too deceitful! "On the third day of March. The embroidered silks she ordered were not delivered on time, causing her to lose face in front of her relatives and friends. The whole person was very aggrieved.
"What's wrong with my mother? Why do you want to make such a big fire?" The sweet and delicate voice came from far and near, and with the sound of greetings one after another, two girls about thirteen or fourteen years old stepped into Mrs. Fang's house one after the other.
"Say hello to my mother." The girl in the cherry pink shirt with a slender figure and a moderate demeanor respectfully greeted Mrs. Fang, and another girl with a round body wearing a moon-white shirt and a crimson skirt threw herself into Mrs. Fang's arms and was coquettish.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, it's easy to get old if you're too angry!"
The lady was in her arms, her words were comforting, and Mrs. Fang forced her anger. Squeeze out a smile. "Quan'er, Cheng'er, you sisters don't go to class. Why did you get here?" The girl in her arms pouted, motioning for the girl in the cherry pink shirt to answer.
"Mr. Liu has a headache and feels unwell, so he went back to rest first." Fang Cheng, the girl in the cherry pink shirt, replied softly.
Madam Fang pursed her lips and nodded. Turning his head to the left and right, he commanded: "Ask a doctor to come over and take a look later, the weather is changeable at this time, it is not good to delay the condition, in case it is not good to give it to your sisters."
Fang Quan pouted and said, "Mr. Liu is frail and sickly, can you change Mr. for us?"
Mrs. Fang looked at her daughter helplessly, knowing why this Mr. Liu was weak and sickly, but she couldn't say it in front of her daughter, and after sending away her daughter and concubine in a few words, she turned back to the servant woman who was still kneeling on the ground and said, "You go again, if they really can't hand over the goods." So he went up to the yamen to sue the officials. โ
The words fell, and everyone in the room gasped one after another, and the servant woman hurriedly spoke, "Madam, I can't help it! โ
"Madam, this matter should not be made a big fuss."
"It's not like I'm going to make a big fuss, he Jiang Jiaxiuzhuang has broken his trust three times and failed to deliver the goods, I have come according to their rules, I have never bargained, I have never defaulted on the payment, and the fixed money is enough, what is the reason for them to make it so difficult?"
The servant's face was as pale as dirt, and the old lady beside Mrs. Fang saw that her face was different, and asked sharply, "Do you have something to hide from Madame?"
"I, I, slave, slave ......" The servant woman trembled and couldn't speak, looking at Mrs. Fang with fear in her eyes, Mrs. Fang also saw that something was wrong, she waved her hand tiredly, and asked the old lady next to her to escort people out to ask, the old lady bent her knees and blessed, and waved a few sturdy mothers-in-law to take down the servant woman, and before the old lady left, she glanced at Mrs. Fang's big maids.
Seeing that the old lady led the servant woman out, several big maids beside Mrs. Fang surrounded Mrs. Fang and coaxed Mrs. Fang to make her feel relieved.
"Madam, will Mr. Liu's illness delay his sisters' schoolwork?"
"They two little girls, what is the important schoolwork? It's just to let them read and understand some principles of how to behave in the world! Mrs. Fang lazily picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Mr. Liu is a hard-working person, and it is a while to be able to help her." โ
Several big maids looked at each other, they always felt very strange, Mrs. would invite Mr. Liu to come to the Fang family as a professor, aren't you afraid that Mrs. Gu will be unhappy when she finds out? You must know that Mr. Liu almost married into the Ding family as a daughter-in-law, if it wasn't for his old lady who did it in time and married the Ding family, it would not be the Fang family but the Liu family!
"If my mother-in-law had said anything wrong back then, she wouldn't have ......" Speaking of which, Mr. Liu's bad reputation and his sister-in-law is still alone to this day, all because of her mother-in-law's words, and she is helping her now, just to follow her mother-in-law's deathbed explanation!" That's right! Qian'er, have they come back from Tanglin?"
"Not yet! By the way, in the past two days, the spice shop in Yuhua Lane said that it was going to be collected. The maid in charge of the incense said.
"Accepted? Why do you need to collect it?" Mrs. Fang asked in surprise, the business of this spice shop is not good, she knows it, and she has already told the steward to keep an eye on it, if his family is interested, she is willing to buy the shop at a high price, why didn't the steward report it, but the maid next to her knew about it first?
"I heard that the owner of the shop is going to do other business."
"The owner? There is another owner of the shop?" Mrs. Fang was slightly stunned.
"yes!" The maid didn't know that her wife's abacus had failed, and said with a smile: "I heard that the owner plans to open an embroidery village, and even the embroidery girl has been hired!" It's from Beijing, and I've been living in the backyard of the shop yesterday. โ
Mrs. Fang replied absentmindedly, "What about the shopkeeper?"
"Him! It's sรจ! I heard that the second aunt was chosen to be an errand by his side. The maid replied, and after a while she thought of something again, and smiled, "You don't know, I heard that his wife took her children to visit the nephew's house of the second aunt, and she was very angry!" โ
"What's going on?" Mrs. Fang asked curiously.
