Chapter 237: Entrustment
Rui'er, who was kneeling on the ground, was already shivering, and she didn't dare to raise her head to look at Cai Shi in front of her, but kept kowtowing to Cai's while crying.
"Ask your wife for forgiveness! Ask your wife for forgiveness! The slave maid was really forced to help the old lady do things!
The slave maid was originally a maid serving in the old lady's yard, and then the old lady transferred a few of us over. The old lady said on the face that she wanted us to take good care of the wife, but in fact, she reported everything that happened in the wife's house to the old lady. ”
"Why did the old lady do this? My days are short, why does the old lady still want to install you, what does she want to do?"
As soon as Cai heard that Feng Lao'an had inserted a few of them in to listen to the news, his anger suddenly surged, and his originally miserable and pale face turned a little red.
Rui'er saw that Cai's was furious, for fear that she would take her anger and drive herself out of the house. He told everything he knew to Cai.
"Madam, the old lady said, although you are sick, but you have the key to the house in your hand, and the maids and women who are waiting in the house are all deployed by you. If you want Aunt Hong to replace you naturally, you need to take the key to the house from your hand. The old lady called us over to get your master's key?"
Rui'er said this, and her heart was already panicking.
Because what she said just now was not what Old Madam Feng said to her personally. But when she came out of the back room, the swift girl caught up with her and told her to do so.
said that if after going back, Cai's asked, and said that the old lady sent them to Cai's house to inquire about the news in order to make Aunt Hong take on the housekeeper's power naturally.
Who knew that after serving for so many days, they didn't even see the shadow of the master of the card key.
Only by pushing this matter onto Aunt Hong and the old man can the old lady be taken out of this matter. At that time, if the Cai family quarrels with Gu Lihua over this matter, it will be Aunt Hong's fault.
At that time, the old lady not only disposed of Aunt Hong, but also beat the old man, and aggravated Cai's condition, this is a ploy to kill three birds with one stone! After the Cai family selected the successor to the house, the Cai family did not have much to live.
Hearing what Rui'er said like that, Cai's was a little unconvinced, why did even his mother stand on Liulang's side?
Hasn't my mother always been on bad terms with Liulang, and for the sake of Aunt Hong, she has been angry with Liulang many times? Why is it that now for the sake of Liulang, he actually helped Aunt Hong to snatch the key of the master in her hand?
Cai sat down on the soft couch, endured the uncomfortable feeling in his throat and eyes, and asked. "Rui'er, did you listen to the old lady say these things herself? The old lady really came to snatch the key to the pair of cards in my hand for the sake of Aunt Hong?"
Rui'er endured the panic in her heart, nodded and said, "Madam, the slave maid dares to swear to the sky, what the slave maid said is true. If the slave and maid tell half a lie, the slave and maid must not die well! ”
Rui'er's oath was very timely, so that Cai and Qiuhua who were present believed that what she had just said was true.
But who would have thought that this was a ploy that Feng Lao'an came up with to kill three birds with one stone? By plotting to seize the key of the master's pair, the Cai family's last love for Gu Lihua was consumed!
"Madam, you must not be soft-hearted any longer! As the saying goes, horses are good at being ridden, and people are good at being bullied, you are just too tolerant of that Aunt Hong, even if she said a lot of gossip about you in front of the old lady and the master. I want to take the hand pair of cards to empty you! You've got to teach that Aunt Red some lessons! ”
Qiuhua looked at Cai's unmoved look, and was angry and anxious in her heart, and couldn't help but say it again.
I just hope that Cai's will be moved, so that Mrs. can take advantage of this opportunity to clean up Aunt Hong's little hooves. If the wife continues to be silent like this, I am afraid that Aunt Hong will come to their door proudly.
After asking Qiuhua to take Na Rui'er down, Cai Shi finally couldn't help the discomfort in his throat and eyes, coughed violently for a while, drank a few decoctions, and then pressed down.
The maid who was waiting on the side picked up the beauty hammer on the top of the high table and gently hammered Cai's back, hoping that she would feel better.
Seeing a few delicate dim sum dishes on the top of Gao Ji, there were lotus root flour osmanthus sugar cakes and corn tortillas sent by someone from the big kitchen early in the morning, Cai Shi thought that Mu Xiaojun Lord should not have tasted Pengpu's lotus root flour osmanthus sugar cake, so he called someone and packed some and sent them over.
"Madam, you have been sick again in the past few days, and the little county lord Mu has not come to see you. It's you, remember her in your heart, whatever snacks are sent from the big kitchen, you will let the maid pack it and send it to her! ”
The maid who hammered Cai's leg saw that after the maid next to her sealed the dim sum, she carefully put it in the food box and couldn't help complaining.
"It's easy to put the icing on the cake, but it's hard to send charcoal in the snow. Now that I'm sick, can't I ask her to be served by the side of a county lord? Although I am the aunt of the county lord, I have no friendship with her mother, and if she can call me aunt, it is close. ”
After Cai's words, he coughed violently again, and his originally pale and colorless face suddenly turned red.
Seeing this, the maid who was beating her legs hurriedly brought the tea cup next to her, and Cai barely drank half a mouthful before suppressing the cough.
"Mrs. is getting worse and worse, the old lady and the old man don't come to see you, and Dr. Qin will also follow Mrs. Lin and the third girl back to Chengjiang. When you leave Dr. Qin, this condition will come back, but what should I do?"
This leg-beating maid has been by Cai's side for many years, and has been serving wholeheartedly, Cai's love her is also very much, and after she dies, I'm afraid this little maid will have to be transferred to another place on an errand.
As for what kind of bad thing it was, she thought that it shouldn't be in her yard, right?
"Doctor Qin was specially invited by Mrs. Lin from Zhengding, originally invited Dr. Qin down, it was for the child in Qi's womb, and now Qi's has given birth safely, this Doctor Qin, we should send it back to Zhengding. It's just that I'm sick, and he keeps taking care of it, so it's been a long delay. ”
As soon as Cai finished speaking, he felt that he had exhausted the remaining strength in his body. At this moment, his face is very ugly, and he is afraid that he is already desperately holding on.
The thumping maid saw Cai's face getting worse and worse, and hurriedly poured out a bowl of ginger soup simmering on top of the silver hanger, and waited for Cai's to drink it.
"Madam, the medicinal materials in this ginger soup are all excellent medicinal materials, and Dr. Qin said that Mrs. finished drinking this medicine, and she was afraid that her body would be fine. Although this decoction smells bad, please bear with me! ”
Cai Shi looked at the little maid with a look of serving with all her heart, and secretly said in her heart, if such a caring person stays in this bottomless Gu Mansion, I am afraid that I will be bullied by those people.
Isn't Sister Tang going back to Chengjiang? It is better to let her carry this maid together and stay by Sister Tang'er to serve than to stay in the house and suffer.
Cai thought so in his heart, and immediately ordered Qiuhua to invite Gu Yutang over.
Cai also knew that he was too sick, and if he called Gu Yutang to the back room, he was afraid that he would give her his illness, so he ordered the maid to put down the beaded curtain that was hanging.
Gu Yutang sat outside the bead curtain, still giving Cai's blessing according to the rules.
Although she didn't see Cai's face in person, she could see Cai's figure from the bead curtain, extremely thin, and the people who didn't see it thought that it was not Cai's sitting inside.
"The sixth uncle is so sick that she called Tang'er over, what is it for?" Without waiting for Cai to speak first, Gu Yutang said first.
Cai coughed a few times, and finally stopped coughing, but his throat was hoarse, but he still endured the discomfort of his throat and replied.
"Tang'er, I called you over, I have something to ask you, I wonder if you are willing to agree to your uncle?"
Although Gu Yutang didn't know what Cai's wanted her to promise, she still agreed, "If my uncle wants to ask Yutang for something, just say it, if Yutang is able, she will do it." ”
