Duan's half leaned on Zhenyan, looking at Zhende kneeling on the ground with tears in his eyes, and he was even more sad, her Zhende was only seven years old, where would she be able to eat this night, and then look at this day, it was raining day after day, such a dampness, if this child's leg was left with any disease......

Thinking of this, Duan almost fainted.

Zhen Yan felt that her mother's body was falling in life, and she didn't dare to relax her wrists, and she hurriedly shouted: "Mother, mother!" ”

Zhende also panicked, he didn't feel anything about following the old lady, he just thought about kneeling for a night, looking up and wanting to ask Duan for help, but seeing that Zhenyan couldn't support Duan, he was so frightened that he was about to rush over with red eyes.

"Ninth Master, the old lady has ordered, don't get up." Jinhong stepped forward and held down Zhende, not daring to let him get up, "The old lady is angry, if you are disobedient, doesn't it make the wife more uncomfortable?" ”

Zhende was about to cry: "But, mother, ......"

Fortunately, there were still a few sober people in the hall, and Aunt Li went over to help Duan's and said, "Uncle, help Mrs. go back to the room to rest first." ”

Zhen Yan came back to his senses, and with Aunt Li, he helped Duan to go back. The eldest lady Zhenke was also sick and confessed, and several mothers-in-law escorted her away.

Sun looked at the three people, sighed, and whispered to Jinhong: "The old lady is angry, I'm afraid it's negligent, such a wet day, but carefully the legs of the master and the young lady, in case something happens, it won't be the old lady who will be annoyed in the future, girl, look ......."

Jinhong knew that the Sun family was a good-hearted person, turned her head to look at the back room, and saw that there was no movement, so she said: "You are still careful, grandma." The old lady was punished for kneeling, and the slave didn't dare to disobey the old lady's wishes, so she asked the girls to take a few thicker futons. ”

Sun nodded and thanked Jinhong: "If the old lady asks, the girl will say that I mean." After that, Sun called Zhen Lin, who was still waiting, "Fourth sister, come with me." ”

Zhen Lin took Sun's hand in the past and said, "Sister-in-law is heavy, and it is not easy to walk this night, but you have to be careful." ”

Glancing at the smiling Sun, Zhen Lin stopped making a sound, she knew that Sun was easy to speak, but what she said just now was not just because of her good heart.

Zhende was punished for the sake of Sun and the child in Sun's womb, but in case something was wrong, her daughter-in-law would not become a thorn in her mother-in-law's side. The daughter-in-law can't resist her mother-in-law, even if she has Brother Chen's side, she is afraid that she will not have a worry-free life, so it is better to give this favor.

After thinking about the reason, Zhen Lin looked at the Sun family differently, she had known that Lu Dao's sister-in-law was powerful, but now that she has seen it once, she also understands that the house of the eldest brother is so clean, which is completely different from her mother Duan's here.

Zhen Lin glanced at Aunt Chen, who had not left yet, isn't this the one who does not make the Duan family pure.

Aunt Chen didn't care what Zhen Lin thought, seeing that everyone was leaving one by one, the pride in her heart was even more difficult to hide. When Sun and Zhen Lin walked away, she took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of her eyes, estimated that she was a little red, and covered her lips again, and said in a friendly voice: "Eighth Master, Miss Ten, today's matter, even though I am an aunt, I have to say a few words to you, I really shouldn't be, you have done something wrong yourself, and you have also affected the Ninth Master, I am really ......" At this point, there was a crying voice, "The old lady punishes you because she really loves you, but you must remember that the old lady is good, and you must be sensible and obedient by the old lady's side in the future, and serve the old lady well." ”

Jinhong hung her head and looked at Aunt Chen's movements coldly, she saw the corners of Aunt Chen's lips under her veil. Is this to make her say this to the old lady?

"Girl," Aunt Chen turned around, "I'll have to take care of you a little more in the future." ”

Jinhong was dissatisfied in her heart, and she didn't dare to show anything on her face, so she returned a salute and said: "What my aunt said, a slave and maid are just a slave and maid, and it is right to serve the master. It's not too early, so let's go back too, the old lady is going to rest. ”

Aunt Chen, who is clearly driving people away, doesn't understand it, her face is a little unbearable, and it's not good to say it anymore, so she can only leave.

Jinhong is the second-class maid in the old lady's house, but it is very popular with the old lady, there are two first-class eyes in the past two years have also reached the age to match people, and when the time comes, Jinhong will be indispensable to the top of this shortage. If it weren't for this, where would Aunt Chen be so polite to Jinhong, and she had to leave after the end.

The flowers bloomed two and each showed a branch, and the Zhou, Ji, and Zhen Xuan in the carriage didn't know what they sang in the hall after they left, and hurried to the fifth room, in the end, it was the night road, although the road conditions in the house were good, they didn't dare to gallop, and the line was very stable.

Zhen Xuan seemed to be tired, and lay in Ji's arms in poor spirits. Ji's eyes were red, and he hugged his daughter distressedly, this night Zhen Xuan was crying and making trouble, and he was in a hurry in the rain, even if he changed his clothes and drank some ginger soup at Cao's place, he had only been sick before, if he suffered from the cold again this time......

Zhou didn't know what Lu Dao Ji was thinking, and comforted him warmly: "Fourteen brothers and sisters, you relax, the seven girls today have saved people, it is a merit, and they have the blessing of the Bodhisattva." ”

Ji wiped away his tears, nodded and said, "Thank you sister-in-law Jiyan." ”

Zhen Xuan was dazed, she only felt that she had no strength in her body, and she couldn't even open her eyelids because of her sleepiness, and she screamed a few times in a vague way, and then fell asleep.

When she woke up again, it was already dawn the next day, Zhen Xuan sat up from the bed, and there was a panic in her heart, afraid that saving people yesterday was just a dream.

called Moma Aya in, asked carefully, and realized that it was all true, and he was about to lie down again.

"Oh my miss, you can be careful, it's good if it hurts." Tao Aya hurriedly helped Zhen Xuan, and seeing that she was fine, she smiled again and said, "Miss looks at her small body, and it is quite heavy." When I came back last night, the young lady fell asleep, and my wife couldn't hold you, so the slave and the maid carried you back together. ”

Zhen Xuan was a little distressed when she heard this, and asked, "Mama Qin is okay, right?" How can she be called Mama Qin, she is so old, what about other maids and daughters-in-law? The sixth aunt also brought a few people. ”

"Mama Qin doesn't worry about them, I'm afraid of hurting Miss."

Zhen Xuan didn't speak again, and asked Tao Aya to serve her and go to greet Mrs. Li and Ji.

Mrs. Li heard about the incident, comforted Zhen Xuan a few words, and when it came to Sun, she inevitably recited a few words of Amitabha.

Ji was afraid that Zhen Xuan's body would recur, so she asked her to go back to the room to rest, and asked Tao Aya to wait.

Zhen Xuan sat by the window, spreading out the book in front of her, but her mind was not there, only staring at the people working in the yard in a daze.

Their five rooms are not better than other rooms, there are no men early, only Zhen Heng is left with a five-year-old child, in addition to the monthly supply in the clan, the only entry is Mrs. Li, Ji's dowry Zhuangzi, as for the family property, because Zhen Heng is young, the patriarch's family will be accepted to manage on behalf of Zhenheng, and then handed back when Zhen Heng is an adult, at the end of each year, as the patriarch's wife, the Zhou family will fold the harvest into silver and send it.

After all, it's not that I'm taking care of it here, and I can't say whether it's good or bad, but I can always cope with daily expenses every year.

Mrs. Li was worried about leaving more for their two sisters and brothers, and she could save on weekdays, not to mention anything else, just to say that the number of people in the fifth room was only barely enough.

Zhen Xuan had seen it in the long room, not to mention the first-class and second-class maids who served by Mrs. Ma's side, there were more than a dozen well-dressed third-class maids in the yard. Zhen Lin and Zhen Qi's two young ladies came and went, the maids, daughters-in-law, and mothers-in-law, and even the Zhen Ring used many more people than Zhen Xuan.

The little servants who served the masters, the porter grooms who entered and exited, carefully calculated, could stand in the courtyard in front of the old lady's house.

In her previous life, when she was the second grandmother, although she was unsatisfactory, she did not miss the amount of food and clothing, after all, it was the third room where the patriarch was, and she still wanted to be decent, and the little maid and maid she called also came according to the number of people around Sun.

Zhen Xuan thought of this, didn't she want to compare with a few sisters, in the words of Mrs. Li, there were only four masters in the fifth room, and there was not much to do, and there were fewer people and cleaner. But taking a look at what happened last night, I always felt that it was not so tasteful, in order to move her back to the room, let Mama Qin at such an age do it herself, Zhen Xuan really didn't want to go.

Mama Qin is the old lady's companion, and she has been loyal for decades, but in other rich and noble families, Mama Qin can enjoy happiness, talking to the old lady every day, and her own little maids are waiting. But in their five rooms, they still have to do everything themselves, firstly, there are too few intimate maids and mothers-in-law around several masters, and secondly, there is indeed no manpower.

Zhen Xuan raised her eyes and looked at Tao Aya, who was sitting by the door doing needlework, and felt a little uncomfortable. It stands to reason that the young lady is in charge of daily life, clothing, needlework, and belongings are all different maids, but there is only one peach silk next to her, so she is all thrown to her.

Tao Aya has a cheerful personality, she is very careful in her work, and the old lady and his wife are also extremely relieved, the monthly money of the first and second classes is different, and Tao Aya is good alone, so she didn't mention a few second-class people in the yard. Besides, just a few people, if they are raised, they have to take someone to make up for it, so forget it.

Thinking about it, Zhen Xuan's drowsiness came up, and she fell asleep with her head propped up.
