General Wu's intermittent cough didn't survive, and it was a dry cough, which made people's hearts and livers tremble together.

The person who eats a meal has no appetite and is worried about him.

Wan Yuanyuan's ability to observe words and emotions is much more powerful, Zheng Lingyi paused before going out, she shook her hand, and said: "Although I changed doctors, the medicine is all being eaten, don't worry too much, brother and sister." ”

Zheng Lingyi nodded and said, "Why didn't you see him today?" ”

Wan Yuanyuan knew who she was talking about, so he lowered his mouth and said, "I said that I went to the camp outside the city." ”

Seeing that Zheng Lingyi didn't have any reaction, she thought that Zheng Lingyi was just curious and asked, and said, "Why are you so serious about the things you give to your child." Aunt Du came to report to me just now, saying that the golden egg you gave to Guangyun was actually a solid one. ”

"Sister-in-law said that she laughed, it's also a festival gift, what does it mean to give a hollow?" Zheng Lingyi pulled out his hand, smiled at Wan Yuanyuan, caught up with the two fathers and sons who were standing in place and waiting, and the family went home.

When he ate cheese, he stained his clothes, and Gao Man also took care of him, but it was too late to come out, and he didn't see Jiang Sheng, he shook his arm, "Mother, where is the little brother?" ”

"Home is gone."

Goldman also knows that he doesn't have any partners, and those cousins in his mother's family are at the age when cats hate dogs, and they hate the little slugs stuck to their backs the most, which one is willing to play with him seriously? When he meets someone younger than himself, it is normal for him to like it.

"Why doesn't the third uncle stay here?" Asked again.

Gao Man didn't know how to explain it, Xu felt a little young and ignorant, so he told the truth in his heart, "They like to live outside and be comfortable." ”

"Let's live outside, too. You can see the lights every day. ”

During the Chinese New Year, I followed a few uncles of the Gao family to the street to see the light market, and the colorful night has been talked about until now.

"How can your father have the ability of your third uncle."

Gao Man never hid his dislike of Wu Yongan in front of him.

Dian was quiet for some reason, and when Gao Man was a little strange, he raised his head again and said excitedly: "Then let's go to the little brother's house to play." ”

Gao Man didn't know how to answer, now that time has passed, the two aunts who made her estranged from Zheng Lingyi at the beginning, one went, and the other was as safe as if there was no such person, if it weren't for the monthly account with an expenditure of two taels of silver, Gao Man would have almost forgotten her.

Even that child was raised in front of Wan Yuanyuan, looking like a mother, and he was not very similar to Wu Yongan.

If she complained, Gao Man didn't have much complaint in her heart, but she just asked her to take the initiative to show goodwill, but she couldn't do such a thing.

She and Wu Yongan are also becoming more and more estranged, it's not that Gao Man really looks down on him for his lack of achievements in his career, and she didn't marry him because of his talent.

It's just that he refuses to admit that it is because of his mediocrity, only sighs that the times are not good, and implies that Goldman has not helped him much.

In the past, he dared to say it to his face, but after making Gao Man ridicule a few times, he only dared to be weird, and Gao Man looked down on him more and more, and he only felt that he was not even a man.

"Madam, didn't the third young lady invite you today? It's okay for you to take the little master to the door, and you should be called a place for the little master to have more fun. ”

Xiangyang watched Gao Man live a little bit every day, and felt bored for her, not to mention that at this age, it was the time when there was a lack of playmates.

Zheng Lingyi mentioned it when she was gossiping, and asked Wan Yuanyuan and Gao Man to take their children to her house as guests.

Wan Yuanyuan responded in one bite, and Gao Man was drinking soup at that time, so he didn't speak.

After listening to Xiangyang's words, she began to shake her arm again.

This child is Gao Manyi's heart and soul, he used to be well-behaved, and he didn't play too much.

Since last year's enlightenment, in addition to festivals, there are only three days a month to get up early, although the child has a lot of discomfort, there has also been a trouble, but after seeing Gao Man also cry, he has never mentioned not going to Mr.

A child of this age is not sensible or sensible, but he has already sensed his mother's disgust for his father.

"Okay, if you listen to Mr. well, my mother will take you to see my brother." Gao Man finally smoothed out, and when she saw him like a bird out of the cage, she ran to the front and laughed at Gao Man, and she laughed too.

…………

After the Dragon Boat Festival, there are no more cool days.

The dumplings in Wu Xia's shop have been sold for more than ten days, and then they have gradually stopped, and this afternoon the sun is spicy, and the sun is so hot that you can smell the burnt meat on the ground, and the pedestrians on the road are sparse, and there are no customers in the store.

Wu Xiatu's shop hall was open and less stuffy, so he and Guo'er spread out the account book on the table to count the money.

In the month before and after the Dragon Boat Festival, they hired a lot of sisters-in-law next door to make zongzi, and now it is time to settle the salary, Guo'er has been in Zhuangzi for a few years, and has learned a lot from Qiaoluo, and the pen and ink are smoother than Wu Xia.

"Sister-in-law Fang brought her two daughters to pack, and she didn't stop day and night, so she should have eight coins of silver." Guo'er added up the number of zongzi made every day, dialed the abacus, and said.

"Give one or two. The eldest girl is going to get married next month, and it's always a cost. "These women are all in a bad situation at home, and they hope that Wu Xia can give some work to do.

The two were calculating, and suddenly an errand boy came in, hiding from the hot sun, and said: "I am the old man Liu's mansion at the end of West Street, and I asked someone to renovate the garden today, and I also asked the store to send a bucket of mint mung bean water, and I want to be iced." ”

Wu Xia responded with a smile, raised her hand and beckoned an idle Xiao Er to go back to prepare, and said, "The guest officer will pour a bowl of jasmine tea and drink it by himself." This big day is also bitter, and you are afraid of running away. ”

The little guy drank a bowl of 'coo dong dong', and left a lot of money to make an order before leaving.

"It's a kind person, and he's willing to ask coolies to drink ice." Guo'er said. Ice is expensive in summer, and a bowl of mung bean water, ice or not, the price is much worse.

"It's kind." Wu Xia also said.

After Guo'er finished keeping the account, she picked off the hair on the tip of a pen, closed the account book, covered the inkstone cover, glanced at Wu Xia, and stopped talking.

Wu Xia felt funny when she saw her like this, and said, "What's the matter, what else can't you say to me?" ”

"No, sister-in-law. I'm thinking about Mrs. Du, do you really want to show her this account book? Although Guo'er doesn't like Huan'er, for the sake of her being a green girl after all, she will give some face. Otherwise, Huan'er's identity as a concubine, where can she be called a lady.

"Just look at it, we're not fake accounts." Wu Xia raised her hand to stick the loose silver hairpin firmly in Guo'er, and said indifferently.

"It's right to show Sister Luzhu Lunong, what's the matter with showing her?!" Guo'er smiled, reached out to touch the hairpin, and said reluctantly with a smile.

A few days ago, Huan'er came to visit, and before Wu Xia found her, she didn't know how long she had been sitting in the store, so she ordered all the food in the store, and asked for another basket when she left, and she didn't throw away half a copper.

Wu Xia knew in her heart that she was here to count the running water in the store, and she didn't bother with her.

Guo'er snorted, opened the account book again, and dropped a pen, Wu Xia poked her head to take a look, it turned out to be the silver that Huan'er had not given that day, and it was considered a loss.

"You girl." She laughed and didn't stop it, but said: "Our business is not bad, but we are busy for a while, and we can't always think about when we are busy. ”

Zhen Xin's royal majesty is strict, except for the Wu family's reward, all the food and drink in Wu Xia must be cashed out, Wu Xia is also cheaper, and there are contacts on both sides, which really helps a lot.

Remembering that the salted duck eggs pickled during the Dragon Boat Festival were the best time, but Wu Xia was too particular about it, and the asking price was more expensive than the market, but it didn't sell much, so she wrapped the remaining two jars and went to visit Wu's house with Guo'er.

As soon as she arrived at the door of Wu's house, she heard the little maids say that the two sisters-in-law of the Wu family were here, so Wu Xia didn't go in, just saw Huan'er, handed over the salted duck eggs, and went back with Guo'er along the shady path by the wall.

Wan Yuanyuan and Gao Man also came in the morning, and after lunch and rested until now, it was not that they had anything to say between them, but the children were so happy that no one could bear to ask them to leave too early.

A pergola has been erected in the main house, and there are so many flowers and plants in the yard, Zheng Lingyi is not stingy with ice, and asks a few children to run in the yard, but they don't feel hot at all.

Wan Yuanyuan naturally only brought Guangyun, she was not stupid enough to do that, and brought that child to poke Gao Manyi's heart, maybe when the children are older, Gao Manyi will not mind.

Wu Yan happened to buy two crickets from the street yesterday for Jiang Sheng to play with, Zheng Lingyi laughed at him, "Don't you worry about raising your children to play. Demoralized? ”

"Crickets are born to grow, and it is people who lose their minds when they are playthings, so what does it have to do with it?"

She thought that Wu Punishment would be a strict father, but she never thought that she would be extremely gentle on weekdays.

But this is just a joke, Jiang Sheng is afraid that there will be no chance to be a stool, and if he does something wrong at such a young age, Wu Zhi will also teach him a lesson.

The two boys were lying on the mat and watching the crickets, Guangyun was not interested in this, sitting on the small bench, playing with a box of beads given to her by Zheng Lingyi, all of which were gems in poor condition, kept for wearing curtains or rewarding people.

Jiaojiao also likes these shiny beads, squatting beside her and watching.

Wan Yuanyuan took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "I haven't had a break for the past few days, that is, I fled to you today, so I can be regarded as idle." ”

Gao Man also said: "There is a sister-in-law Lao." Zheng Lingyi only smiled and didn't speak.

They all know what Wan Yuanyuan means, she picked two families for Wu Cong, one family is higher, the sister is not outstanding in appearance and temperament, and the family is lower, but the sister is handsome and has a good temperament.

Zheng Lingyi couldn't help but be ten thousand yuanyuan, and she also went to take a look, if she came to pick, it would definitely be the latter, but Wu Cong didn't think so.

Today, I heard Wan Yuanyuan say that he has booked the household in front of him, and he is the concubine of the servant of the ministry.

The Ministry of Officials of this dynasty is in charge of the selection of military attachés, and Wu Cong wants to be promoted, but he does not have the ability to be ordered by the emperor himself, so he can only rely on donations. I'm afraid it's not enough to donate alone, so it seems that this marriage is really to Wu Cong's taste.
