155 to prevent piracy
Books and pen, ink, paper, and inkstones are naturally good, and the rest of the things cannot be eaten as food. Yu Qiao instructed Steward Tao to exchange these things for silver taels for the expenses of the house.
The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and Yu Qiao returned to the courtyard after getting out of the school, and sat in the shade of the trees in the courtyard. After sitting for a while, he went to Watson's house.
Several of the women in the courtyard were sent out on errands, and now she and Watson were left in the courtyard, much more deserted than usual.
But in addition to the cold, there is always another kind of warmth. It's like, the person you care about in your heart will get along with you alone, share the vicissitudes of this world, and share the morning clouds and twilight rain.
He has always been raised, and he has never been by Yu Qiao's side all the time. At this moment, he was still sleeping peacefully, his shirt was half open, revealing half of his chest.
Yu Qiao leaned down and pulled his clothes apart a little more, examining his wounds. Due to the heat, the wound was no longer bandaged, but only medicated. Seeing that the scar is already dry, the external injury is no longer serious, and the inside has to continue to recuperate.
He reached out in his sleep and took her hand. His palms are calloused and hard, but they are also warm. Yu Qiao let him hold it like this, only to feel that his heart was properly and steady, and sleepiness struck, and he actually fell asleep on his chest.
When he woke up, it was already evening, Yu Qiao went to the dining hall alone to eat, and after the meal, he asked the cook to make blood tonic soup for Watson, and kept the blood tonic soup boiled well, and then personally brought it back to his yard.
In fact, Watson had already taken Mr. Dodge's special healing pills, and his body was already fine, so in order to hide people's eyes, he could only let the condition drag on for a long time.
After he drank the soup he had brought and ate two bowls of rice, his heart was always full of emotion and pain. The house is in a bad situation now, and there are no good supplements, but he is not stingy with him, a subordinate, and even the old lady has sent a few tonics with Mei'er.
As an orphan, he has received warmth and protection from home, is he going to ruin all this?
got up and went to the outside of Yu Qiao's hall, and after the weather got hot, the door curtain was opened every day and no longer hidden. Even if it's night, it's still hot.
Yu Qiao looked at him and said, "Come in." ”
He went into the house and sat down. There is no longer a need for them to salute at any time, they can stand at any time, and Yu Qiao doesn't care about those salutes.
He said: "My injuries have healed, and from tomorrow onwards, let me follow Miss." ”
At the moment, there is nothing else going on in the house, and everyone is idle. The Song Mansion, which was idle, was exceptionally deserted.
Yu Qiao looked at him and said, "You gather all the male servants and family members in the house, take them to the suburbs to cut bamboo, teach them to make a smile, do it every day, do as much as possible, and put it away in the warehouse after cleaning." ”
Watson's eyes lit up, and he already understood what she meant.
Thinking of forcing the Song Mansion into a desperate situation, the old lady would use those hidden treasures. Now it seems that either the old lady will die and keep the instructions of her father, or there is no treasure map at all.
Now he even hopes that Natu is not in the hands of the old lady, he will not be enmity with them, and in the future, whether he achieves great things or not, the Song Mansion will be his guarded home.
Yu Qiao saw that he was silent, and said, "You don't have to tell them what's the use of doing this, it's a trade secret." ”
Watson......
"I mean, in case someone else pirates."
Watson......
"Just do what I say."
Recently, most of the servants in the house have been idle, and it is not a good thing to be too idle, so if they find something to do, they may be more angry.
While she was talking, Cui'er trotted all the way into the yard and then into the house. When he entered the room, he knelt down, and his voice was happy and sour: "I really don't worry about leaving Miss alone, so I'll come back and take a look." ”
Yu Qiao stretched out his hand to help her up: "You're back, who will take care of Fuguxuan No. 2 Store?" ”
Cui'er spit loquat and said, "In the past two days, we have counted all the goods, and I have asked the guys to clean and clean the store again, and put all the goods back together. ”
"There was also an attic on the second floor, which used to be piled up with miscellaneous items, so I cleaned up and put a bedding there, and thought that I would stay there in the future. The shop is full of people, so you should rest assured. ”
"Today, Huang Ding said that he lived in the store and guarded the store, and asked me to come back to get some clothes, and I also wanted to come back to see Miss, so I came back."
Watson asked, "Is Huang Ding a reliable man?" ”
Cui'er picked up the fan and said while fanning Yu Qiao: "I was about to tell Miss that this Huang Ding used to be a family member in Lord Zeng's mansion, and he was lame for some reason, but he was sent to Jibaotang as a companion, he is a loyal and honest person, and he is treated poorly by Fuxi, and he is asked to do heavy and rough work." ”
It is said that there was a blind old lady in his family, who was dependent on him for support. Miss believes me, this person can be trusted. ”
Yu Qiao looked up and bent her eyes at her and smiled: "I believe you." ”
Cui'er said: "I'll stay with Miss today, and I'll come back every few days in the future." ”
He said to Watson again: "We are not here, Miss is the only one by her side, and you don't understand many things about the woman's family, I really don't feel at ease." ”
People who don't even understand women's menstrual affairs, how can Cui'er rest assured......
He turned his head to the side, but Yu Qiao looked at him with tenderness in his eyes, and said softly: "There is nothing terrible about horizontal girls, I can handle it myself." ”
Cui'er still wanted to speak, but the doorman came to report: "Report to the third lady, there is a lady at the door, I want to see the third miss." ”
Cui'er raised her voice and asked, "But who are you asking?" ”
"She only said she belonged to the Fuxi family."
That's a surprise!
But it's not surprising!
Cui'er said: "When I talked back, I said that the young lady was asleep and I didn't see it." ”
Yu Qiao said leisurely: "Why don't you see it?" This is a nobleman, you need to see it, just bring it quickly. ”
Cui'er muttered: "I really don't understand, Miss, what kind of ...... are you climbing blindly all day long?"
Yu Qiao's eyebrows bent.
If there is no Sheng Niangzi, how can you know that Jibaotang was bought by Lord Zeng......
If there is no Sheng Niangzi, how can you know that the Allah of this Jibaotang is the King of Qi......
If it weren't for that, how could this Jibaotang return to its own hands......
After a while, Sheng Niangzi entered the door, knelt down in front of Yu Qiao when she entered the door, and said, "Please ask my sister to save me." ”
Yu Qiao hurriedly got up and helped her up, holding her hands: "Sister must not do this gift, as long as my sister can do it, I will definitely help my sister do it." Cui'er, hurry up and serve refreshments. ”
After speaking, he pulled Sheng Niangzi and sat down.
I saw that Sheng Niangzi's eyes were red and swollen, and she couldn't speak for a long time.
Yu Qiao said: "Sister, but here for happiness? ”
Sheng Niangzi nodded, and said with tears: "My sister is stupid, I haven't asked my sister which lady in the house she is, and I thought about it for two days before I thought about it, and I thought of my sister's friendship with my sister, so I came recklessly." ”
