125 Shall the days go on?
Zhang Meishou walked over and saluted her.
"Mother."
"Zhenzhen, your father has a letter!" Song said with a smile: "The letter said that he had arrived in Gui'an County safely, and this letter was sent from Huzhou Mansion to the capital, and it would take ten days to say the least, and your father has been going through more than ten days now." ”
Zhang Meishou was also very happy.
She subconsciously took the letter and looked at it.
Seeing that she was looking at it seriously, Song laughed and said, "Look at what you like, but I don't know how many words you can recognize?" ”
Zhang Meishou's eyes froze.
She almost forgot that she was not literate enough to read letters.
But now I can only pretend to be hard and say, "I can know a lot......
Song laughed again, but he took the letter back and read the contents of the letter to his daughter.
Zhang Meishou has already roughly finished reading it, and when she listens to her mother reading it at this time, she knows that she deliberately read a few words less - but she really doesn't want to listen to her father's rustic love words. When I watched it just now, I hastily skipped it with a mentality of "don't look at it if it's indecent, so as not to be poisoned".
What she really wanted to pay attention to was a stumbling mention from her father at the end of the letter.
Sure enough, I listened to Song Shi read: "The land of Huzhou has not stopped raining for several days, I am afraid that there is a risk of flooding, and when I come, the capital is drought, if I can borrow from each other, it will be a ...... of both."
Zhang Luan's words were quite worried about the country and the people.
Zhang Meishou hurriedly asked: "It has been more than ten days since my father sent the letter, and I don't know if the rain has stopped during this time?" If it doesn't work, I'm afraid it's already flooded, right? ”
She already remembered that this year, Huzhou, Zhejiang Province was hit by floods, flooding more than ten surrounding counties, countless displaced people, and it seems that there was a riot of victims due to the untimely relief of the disaster.
After her daughter mentioned it, Song became faintly worried.
If there is really a flood, then the husband will not be able to go smoothly this time, even if he is safe, I am afraid that he will not be guaranteed.
Although she doesn't have much knowledge, she also knows that where natural disasters have been rampant, there will always be things that are not peaceful.
"If there is really a flood, it must be time to report to the capital, and I have asked people to pay attention to the news in the past two days." Song said while thinking.
Zhang Meishou nodded while thinking in his heart.
……
In the big room, Zhang Meixian was severely reprimanded by Liu.
"Just because I'm not your biological mother, I haven't punished you for your disobedience in every way on weekdays, but what you've been doing recently is really undisciplined!" Liu said in a deep voice.
Zhang Meixian clenched her handkerchief tightly and said coldly: "Lack of discipline? I'm just going out to incense, how can I become a lack of discipline? ”
"You shouldn't have gone out with your third sister!" Liu Shi lowered his voice and scolded: "Don't you know that because of the injury of the county lord of Yanzhen, the little girls who participated in the flower party didn't even dare to go out recently?" I'm afraid that if you don't pay attention, you will provoke the eyes of the Ning family again - you are good, not only do you not want to avoid it, but you pull your third sister around to swagger, if you cause trouble, can you afford it? ”
Zhang Meixian just wanted to sneer when she heard it.
"Yesterday, the second lady of the Dingguo Mansion came to the third sister to see the Keju competition of Qingfeng Academy, but the third sister didn't go."
There are indeed some timid people who are temporarily avoiding the limelight, but all they want is to be cautious in their words and deeds, and not to talk nonsense about the flower party of the day, how can Liu Shi say that he doesn't even dare to go out of the door?
"I'm afraid that when you heard the news of Lin Shilang's death, you were not happy in your heart, and you deliberately made me angry, right?" Zhang Meixian looked at Liu with sarcastic eyes.
Her heart suddenly hardened now, and she even felt that Lin Shilang had died very well, at least looking at the appearance of Liu's abacus being disappointed, it was really relieving.
Liu's face sank.
"Eyes are not respectful, do you have any rules for speaking!"
Zhang Meiyan frowned slightly on the side, looked at Zhang Meixian and said, "Eldest sister, my mother said that this is all for your good, how can you misinterpret your mother's kindness so much?" ”
"I can't afford your mother's kindness!"
"I really indulge you too much...... Liu Shi seemed to be very angry, and said bitterly: "Today, if I don't punish you, I'm afraid I won't be able to suppress your overly flamboyant temperament - and punish you for being grounded for two months, go back and think about it!" ”
Zhang Meixian pursed her somewhat blue lips and looked at her without saying a word.
Liu's eyes were full of anger and oppression.
After staring at each other for a long time, Zhang Meixian finally turned around and strode away.
When Zhang Yan came back, he obviously heard about Lin Shilang's sudden death, and his face was ugly.
Originally, the father-in-law who was about to become the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, although it was the third father-in-law, although this son-in-law was a few years older than him...... But right now, Zhang Yan's mood is that he feels that the fat in his mouth has flown away, and he is so distressed!
However, the Liu family ordered someone to close the courtyard door again, and summoned a maid and wife from the courtyard to come over, saying that they wanted to catch some house thief and an endless moth.
"Now that the housekeeping power is gone, you can't even manage a small yard!" Zhang Yan asked annoyedly: "What is the terrible thing that has been lost, which is worth such fanfare!" ”
"A pair of newly-beaten red gold hairpins in my makeup are gone!" Liu was already upset, and he was reprimanded by him, and he felt even worse.
"......" Zhang Yan didn't know what he thought, and his eyes suddenly changed.
He didn't ask any more questions, but brushed his sleeves and got up and left: "If you are not tired, let's go!" ”
Liu looked at his back, and was even more angry, and thought of his dowry nurse two days ago, and cried, saying that the third girl was in charge and replaced her daughter-in-law Zhuangzi's position as the manager, begging her to call the shots. She went to the old lady, but the old lady praised the third girl for doing the right thing, saying that "those things that talk about the master's house should be punished severely"!
In addition, he also said with a sigh of relief, "The three girls are so capable, and it is really not easy to be able to take charge at a young age...... Hehe, the old lady praised Zhang Meishou with a gratifying face!
Liu had a feeling of doubting life on the spot.
This is not the end, Mrs. Zhang punished her dowry nurse on the spot in Songhetang for 30 palms, saying that she was unreasonable, shielded her daughter-in-law, and deceived the main family......
When Liu thought of this, he was so angry that he wanted to faint, and even wanted to sit on the ground and beat his legs and cry.
When everything doesn't go well, everyone comes to her...... Can I live this day now?
……
Sure enough, the next day, Song waited for the news of the flood in Huzhou, Zhejiang.
When Zhang Meishou heard this, he paced back and forth in the courtyard, and after thinking about half a pillar of incense, he suddenly went to Zhang Qiuchi's courtyard.
"Third sister, you came just in time."
Zhang Qiuchi said before Zhang Meishou spoke: "I happen to have something to say to you. ”
As he spoke, he had already retired from the servants who were guarding the room, and he looked unwilling to let outsiders listen.
Zhang Meishou was puzzled in his heart, knowing that his affairs were not in a hurry for this moment, so he sat down and listened to him first.
