Chapter 140: Aunt Yan

Xiao Cui'er led Mrs. Chang Wan into Aunt Yan's yard, and saw a beautiful woman about twenty-five or sixteen years old sitting under a small tree to enjoy the coolness, two little maids behind her insisted on fanning her, and a small cool basin was placed on the small table in front of her, and the woman's eyes were slightly closed, obviously enjoying it.

This person is Aunt Yan.

"Why is Sister Wan here?" Hearing the movement, Aunt Yan opened her eyes and watched the person in front of her get up to greet her.

"I heard that my sister has been unwell recently, so I came to take a look and brought some medicinal herbs to replenish your body." Wan stepped forward and said, grabbed Aunt Yan's hands, looked at the bright woman in front of her, and cared.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, and my sister has lost a lot."

Wan and Aunt Yan have known each other for a few years, and under Wan's heart, the two are commensurate with sisters.

Aunt Yan looked at the ginseng in the long box in front of her, it has been hundreds of years, it is really generous, and she couldn't help laughing: "Let my sister break the bank." Now that the weather is hot, she doesn't dare to eat it, but the centuries-old ginseng is a treasure.

"You and my sister, why be so polite." Wan Shi was polite, and when he saw Aunt Yan accept it, he felt relieved.

"These days are too hot to stay at home is also very boring, I heard that the famous treasure in the capital opened a branch here, the gold and silver jewelry in the capital are the famous master in the capital personally made, it can be said that it is the treasure of the town, there are a lot of famous tobacco fat gouache, when you have to spare my sister to accompany my sister to go shopping, just think of my sister as a good line, accompany my sister to go out for a walk! You know my sister loves these things the most. Wan Shi said the words of accompaniment to invite Aunt Yan to go with her, who in the city didn't know that Aunt Yan in the prefect's mansion loved jewelry and grooming.

did what he liked, and he also made a bloody investment for his brother.

Sure enough, Aunt Yan was in a better mood when she heard this, "Anyway, it's okay, go shopping with my sister." "Aunt Yan is indeed very fond of those beautiful jewelry, especially glittering things, and loves to dress up, and she will try her best to buy good jewelry.

"Okay, that's okay, let's go together then." Wan Shi said, pursing his lips and smiling, "When I first came in, I saw Lan Ling in Madame's courtyard leading a few little girls out, but what's the matter?" ”

"Hey! It's not a big deal, Mrs. Lin invited a little doctor for her sister to see her. Aunt Yan said casually, what a joke, so many diseases that can't be cured by famous doctors, she actually invited a little girl to come, hehe! The doctors in the city have seen it all, but the little girl has to go.

What is this called, rushing to the doctor in a hurry!

For her, that is the hen who occupies the position and does not lay eggs, what is the use of being prominent, there is not a single egg, no matter how noble the family background is, the lord has not handed over the power of the family to her, who in the house does not look down on her, and the one who only shrunk his tail to be a man.

A hundred years later, only the son she gave birth to passed the incense to Lao Tzu and followed the incense lamp, what did she compare with her.

"Madame is really pitiful, she is over thirty years old and has no children, what can I do in the future." Wan gloated and said, what should I do? must not rely on Aunt Yan's eldest son.

"But no, my sister is really pitiful, how many doctors say that this is an incurable disease, but my sister just doesn't believe it, she invites a doctor every day and eats this medicine as a meal, fortunately her dowry is rich, otherwise with the master's family background, she would have to eat poor." Aunt Yan said sadly, her words seemed sympathetic, but more happy.

She has followed the master since she was a child, and before the lady entered the door, she was the master's roommate, and the lord had promised her countless times that she would raise her as an aunt after the lady entered the door, but unfortunately she not only did not become an aunt after the lady entered the door, but the lady also suppressed her openly and secretly, and she suffered a lot in those years.

There is a rule in the house that before the birth of the sister-in-law, all the aunts are not allowed to give birth to the eldest son or the eldest daughter before the wife, she has drunk this avoidance soup for five years, and the lady has nothing to do for five years.

Xu can't produce, and she is the happiest.

The two knew it, putting aside the Xu family, Wan Shi led the topic again, constantly laughing with Aunt Yan, and unconsciously led the topic to her two brothers.

"Alas! My brother is really pitiful, I don't know who I offended, a few days ago he was smashed in the gambling house, hung at the entrance of the vegetable market, and slept for three days and three nights without knowing anyone, and now he is in prison again. Speaking of his brother, Wan Shi instantly shed tears, tried his eyes with a handkerchief, and cursed the people who harmed them not to die well, and couldn't help but be sad.

"Sister, my brother is an innocent person, you have to help them!" Wan Shi took Aunt Yan's hand and said eagerly.

~~

In the small side hall, only a small window was opened, the cool breeze outside did not blow into the house, so the heat was everywhere, the room was stuffy like a small stove, the tea in front of her was already cold, Mother Li sat a little anxiously, although the little girl behind her was holding a beauty fan and shaking it for her, she was still sweating profusely, I don't know if it was hot or because of anxiety.

There was no ice basin in the house, Li's mother sat and waited like this, she was a little worried about Xiao Ming, she brought Xiao Ming into the backyard of the prefect's mansion for almost two hours and failed to see each other, and no one came out to pick her up from the maiden in the house, so she took Xiao Ming into the backyard and hung her here as if she was a transparent person, and sat on the cold bench for two hours.

A little girl who had just left her head at the door guarded, brought a cup of boiling tea and stood outside the door wringing her fingers to play, Mother Li looked at it and sneered, both angry and funny, anyway, she is also a member of Mrs. Lin's mansion in Zhixian County, and she introduced a famous doctor for Mrs. Xu, the prefect, and she was treated so coldly.

It has long been rumored that this backyard is the aunt's house, and now it seems that it is, how good can the etiquette of the aunt from this small family be, that aunt is terrible, since she became the home of the prefect's backyard, she is even more present at the banquet of a large family, just like a lady in charge, which has attracted the laughter of the whole city, but there are really so many families who stammered her.

If the big backyard doesn't care about the head lady from a big family, I want an aunt to be the director of the house, and it's a fool to think about this prefect.

Although she was extremely dissatisfied, Mother Li's face was not obvious, and the old god sat upright, although her forehead was covered with beads of sweat, she still looked leisurely, stopping the little girl's plan to stand up for her, and worried about Xiao Ming, that is, worried that she would receive the same cold treatment as herself, and worried that she would be reprimanded by the prefect's wife Xu, it was she who strongly recommended Xiao Ming to see Xu, if Xiao Ming was wrong, with the degree that Lin valued Xiao Ming, she would also be dissatisfied with her.

waited left and right, and finally looked forward to Xiao Ming.
