Chapter 7 Congratulatory Gifts
After much effort, the man was finally put into the tub, and the charcoal fire rose, and in a short time the room became warm.
Qiao Yue wiped the sweat from her forehead, the blush on her face had not faded, and when she didn't pay attention, she glanced at the sleek man in the bathtub again, and the flush on her face surged up again.
Suddenly, the man's eyebrows moved, and there were signs that he was about to wake up, Qiao Yue was a thief, startled, hurriedly threw away the rag in his hand, ran out of the house as if he was running away, and was busy making a fire to make porridge.
Time passed slowly, and the unconscious man did not wake up as he imagined, but his whole body began to burn frighteningly, and then he started a high fever.
Bursts of gibberish began.
"Bold, you dare to kill me, do you know who I am?"
……
"Second brother, second brother... Is it you, won't even me let go? We are brothers! ”
……
"Haha... Boiling beans burns beans, beans cry in the kettle, this is the same rebirth, why is it too anxious to fry each other? Go back and sue Liu Wencheng, I want him to take Liu Xiang's life in person, and I want to watch him cut off my head with my eyes open. ”
……
His voice was sometimes majestic, sometimes crazy, sometimes helpless, sometimes heartbroken, and Qiao Yue couldn't bear it, and began to pity the man in front of him.
She shook her head and sighed, "Hey! It seems that you didn't do well as a thief, and when you get better, don't be a thief anymore~ Fighting and killing all day long, when is it a head..."
In this way, Qiao Yue was so busy that her feet did not touch the ground, and slowly fed the boiled ginger soup and a bowl of porridge, and Liu Xiang's complexion was slightly better.
Even if the person is saved, he won't be able to die for a while, Qiao Yue is reluctant to pay out of his own pocket to find a doctor for Liu Xiang to get medicine, a child from a poor family has a fever is not a big deal, usually drink a bowl of ginger soup, cover his sweat with the quilt, and lie down for two or three days.
The busy day is finally free, and the work of helping people make tofu is not every day, it is all some work that the old customers of Qiao's tofu and Aunt Wang helped to do.
Don't look at Qiao Yue's busy day, in fact, except for her and her brother's living expenses, there is not much left.
"The eldest brother is not small, he should have married a long time ago, if people know that the eldest brother is a robber, no one will be willing to marry his daughter to the eldest brother."
Qiao Yue was thinking about the money left in the family, and when she thought of her eldest brother, she was very worried.
Suddenly, she laughed "poof": "Hehe~ If the eldest brother comes back and knows that I have set a family affair for him, he will definitely be very happy!" My mother is not here, and I can't let my eldest brother be so single as a sister...
Well, you have to hurry, you must implement the family affairs before the eldest brother is known to be a robber. ”
Thinking of this, Qiao Yue hurriedly put the silk scarf that had only been embroidered for most of it into her arms, closed the door, and hurriedly went out of the yard.
Aunt Wang's house is not far from Qiao Yue's house, out of the courtyard to the north, in the direction of Qizhou City, about three hundred meters away.
Although Aunt Wang is a descendant of the Zhang family, she has always been neat and tidy, and she has been the nurse of Miss Zhang Huiyun for a long time, and she has won the trust of the Zhang family and her status is not low.
The distance is not far, and she is familiar with the road, and soon Qiao Yue arrived in front of Aunt Wang's house, and without hesitation, she pushed the door directly.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the hospital, the sound of several women laughing came out.
I saw people coming and going in the courtyard, and five or six women dressed in ostentatious clothes came in and out, and it was a lively scene.
One of the women, Qiao Yue, who was wearing a purple cheongsam, knew that it was the famous money matchmaker outside the village.
It is said that this money matchmaker's means of being a matchmaker are quite clever, and no matter how difficult it is, as long as she passes through her sharp mouth, it can be kept.
Qiao Yue was overjoyed, she really came whatever she wanted, and hurriedly greeted her excitedly and said, "Money... Sister Qian..."
Mrs. Qian has a habit, no matter who she is, she can only call him eldest sister, if she is not satisfied, no matter how much money she gives, she will not want to ask her to help say goodbye.
Mrs. Qian turned her head, glanced at Qiao Yue, frowned, a little dissatisfied, and rolled her thick lips: "Who are you?" ”
"I'm Qiao Yue, the second child of Qiao Tofu's family..."
"Oh! I don't know, if you go to the funeral, you're going to the wrong door..."
Mrs. Qian glanced at Qiao Yue, and then said coldly, holding a bowl of freshly cooked dishes in her hand, and turned around and walked into the house.
Qiao Yue's face stiffened, and her excitement was as if someone had poured a plate of cold water, and her stomach was directly choked with words.
Qiao Yue knew that she was dressed in a gray cloth plain suit, with a few patches on her body, and an ugly linen cloth tied to her forehead, it was already very polite to be said to be a funeral.
If this is a big family in Qizhou City, dressed like Qiao Yue, and suddenly breaks into someone's yard, he will definitely be beaten half to death, and then let the dog out and bite it out of the door.
"Hey~ I want to eat, my nose is quite smart, I only came in when I smelled it, right?"
Just as Qiao Yue hesitated, another woman who walked past her with a dish sneered over.
"The master's house hasn't opened yet, I want to come back later, there are a lot of meals at the master's house today, and I will keep some leftovers for you later."
Without waiting for Qiao Yue to speak, the sneering woman added another sentence, which seemed to be very kind.
"Sister Qiao, what are you talking about with a person who asks for food, it's about to start, if she wants to wait, let her wait outside! People order leftovers and eat them hot, right? ”
Another woman passing by approached, not hiding the look of disgust on her face.
"I'm looking for Aunt Wang..."
Anyway, I've been used to cold words all these years, and Qiao Yue didn't take it to heart at all.
"Oh, it's the same as us, to celebrate the birthday of the sister-in-law?"
The woman called Sister Qiao pretended to be shocked, and before Qiao Yue's words fell, she raised her voice and howled fiercely.
The woman next to her is the same as the Zhang family, and she usually cooperates a lot, seeing Sister Qiao's appearance, she was happy in her heart, thinking that there must be a good show to watch, so she immediately echoed loudly: "Third brother, the distinguished guest has come to the door, why don't you come out to receive the gift!" ”
After saying that, the woman laughed, blinked her eyes, and handed the woman who she called Qiao Sister a look I understand you, and the woman who made the trouble also smiled with satisfaction and responded.
"Congratulatory gifts?"
Obviously, when they look at Qiao Yue's poor appearance, they must not be able to get anything eye-catching.
Maybe he is used to being a subordinate in a big family, and the ability to make trouble has gone deep into the bone marrow, and these two people set up a trap for Qiao Yue in just a few words.
Aunt Wang is Hu by nature, and after marrying Wang San, she took the surname Wang.
Wang San is a responsible person, he is not so fancy, he heard the shouts outside, he was not tall and didn't see Qiao Yue who was blocked by two women in the courtyard at all, so he responded formulaically: "It's a guest when you pass through the door, you are here, what kind of etiquette do you bring!" ”
