Chapter 218: Estrangement (1)

Zijuan raised her head, glanced at Feng Lao'an coldly, and then said: "Old lady, the truth is that Mrs. Qi has the intention to drive me out of the back cover room, and the lie is that I am not angry, and Mrs. Qi calculated the back cover room." Everything is useless for the slave and maid, and she has lost the face of the old lady in vain. ”

Feng Lao'an didn't look at Zijuan, picked up a big red robe next to him, lifted the tea lid, waved the tea fragrance with his hand, and said lightly.

"You are useless, if you are a useless person, you will not be calculated by the Qi family in vain. It's a shame that you've been by my side for so long, why are you so breathless?"

As soon as the words fell, Feng Lao'an stood up from the soft couch and walked to the door with the help of Swift, who had already pushed the door open and was ready to send Feng Lao'an back to the house.

"Zijuan, the Qi family now holds the power of steward in his hands, if he wants to send you away, it is just a matter of a snap of his fingers, and now he just watched you serve by my side for so many years, taking into account the relationship between you and me for many years, so he didn't order anyone to drive you out."

Feng Lao'an turned his head and glanced at Zijuan meaningfully.

Zijuan has served by her side all these years and has done so many things for her, although there is no credit, but there is a bit of hard work.

But Zijuan secretly used her name to collect too many ill-gotten gains in the house, although she knew, but it was not easy to break it, and she had turned a blind eye to her over the years.

A few days ago, Qi Shi took the account books of the stewards of the big kitchen and the small kitchen to check, only to find that Zijuan had eaten kickbacks on the purchase of the big kitchen and the small kitchen over the years, and at least a thousand taels of silver had gone into her purse.

During the New Year's holidays, under her name, I don't know how many red envelopes I received from the big and small stewards who served her head.

The Qi family had the intention of rectifying Zijuan, and it was also secretly approved by her.

Zijuan also knew that she had used the name of Feng Lao'an to show off her power in the mansion over the years, and she had done the ugly things that were not visible.

Every time, Feng Laoan came to cover her up, so every time she did things, she was unscrupulous, and she never thought that there would be such a day.

The reason why the Qi family threw her out of the back cover room so hurriedly this time must have been instructed by the old lady behind her back, otherwise with her understanding of the Qi family, the Qi family would definitely not be in such a hurry.

However, the old lady drove herself out in advance, also for her own good, and those people in the original house did not make a move on her because they saw the old lady's face, if those people knew that she had lost power, maybe they would immediately step on her.

Zijuan thought so, knelt on the ground again, kowtowed to Feng Lao'an, and then said: "The slave and maid have been able to serve by the old lady's side for all these years, thank the old lady for her support, after the slave and maid leave the house, the slave and the maid will come to see the old lady again." ”

Feng Lao'an didn't look at her anymore, and was carried by the swifts beside him, so he went out of the house and went to the warm pavilion next door. Swift raised the bamboo curtain hanging outside the warm pavilion, and walked in with Feng Lao'anren in her arms.

"Actually, the old lady drove Sister Zijuan out of the back room, and it was also for her good." Yuyan helped Feng Lao'an to sit on the soft couch beside him, and continued.

"Sister Zijuan is old, although she is past the age of leaving the house to marry, it is not that she can't get married. Those good people outside are waiting to marry the girl from the big family and go back to be the housekeeper's wife, and with Sister Zijuan's appearance and character, it is also the wife of a small official. ”

"You can see it. If Zijuan continues to stay in the mansion, I am afraid that the Qi family will not be able to tolerate her, and I am afraid that there will be trouble at that time! Instead of letting them make trouble at that time, it is better to reward Zijuan with grace now and let her go out of the house to marry! ”

Feng Lao'an said, and the swift who was waiting on the side had already ordered someone to go to the pantry and get fresh refreshments and tea.

"The old lady Bodhisattva heart, Sister Zijuan will know. But now Mrs. Qi, should we put a few more maids in, those who were inserted a few days ago were all sent away by Mrs. Qi. ”

Feng Lao'an didn't worry about the nurse taking care of Brother Hu alone, so he installed some maids in Qi's house to inquire about the news, but the maids were sent away by the Qi family before they went in for a few days.

While talking, the maid who was waiting in the pantry brought a plate of mung bean cake and a plate of osmanthus cake, the taste of osmanthus cake was extremely strong, and the smell of mung bean cake next to it was covered raw.

Feng Lao'an smelled good, and before the swift could take the clip, he grabbed a piece first, broke it into two pieces, and sent it to his mouth.

Seeing that there were still many osmanthus cakes on the table, Feng Lao'an thought that Gu Yutang had just recovered from a serious illness, and there must be no taste in his mouth, so he ordered the maid to send a drawer of osmanthus cakes to the east chamber.

In the east chamber, although Gu Yutang came to his senses, he was still sick, and the whole person looked at the seedling field, and the Lin family couldn't rest assured, so he called Doctor Qin to take care of Gu Yutang's house day and night.

But after all, there is a difference between men and women, if Dr. Qin stays in Gu Yutang's room all day, it will inevitably be gossiped about, so only after Gu Yutang has lunch, Dr. Qin will come over to diagnose Gu Yutang's pulse.

Ah Hua held the decoction brought from the pantry, looked at Gu Yutang, who was leaning crookedly on the couch, sick, sighed, and continued to persuade: "Girl, for the sake of your illness, no matter how bitter this medicine is, you still have to drink some of it!" ”

Ah Hua persuaded and glanced at the winter solstice who was tidying up things in the house.

The winter solstice was a spirit, and he immediately understood what Ah Hua meant, and hurriedly echoed the sentence.

"Girl, good medicine is good for illness, your illness has been repeated, and it will always burn in the second half of the night, you still have to drink some of this medicine." As he spoke, Dong Solstice took the celadon lotus-patterned small bowl handed over by Ah Hua, which contained a hot brown decoction and a celadon spoon.

"Girl, Mrs. Feng asked someone to send some osmanthus cakes, and after the girl drank the medicine, the girl ate a few pieces of osmanthus cakes to relieve the bitterness in her mouth."

As soon as Dong Solstice's words fell, she placed the decoction medicine that Fang Cai Ahua handed her on the small table at the head of Gu Yutang's bed.

Gu Yutang didn't even look at the little decoction, but raised his head and looked around the room, but didn't see Da Han's figure.

She thought that Da Han had run out, so she asked Ah Hua on the side: "Ah Hua, what did that stupid girl do with Da Han?" Why haven't you seen a figure for a long time, did you let her out again?"

was asked by her own girl, Ah Hua remembered that the girl from home didn't know that Mrs. Lin blamed Da Han for the girl's cold, and scolded Da Han for not taking good care of the girl, and called a few mothers-in-law to lock it in the firewood room. also said that after the girl was well, he called people into the house and sold Da Han.

After all, Da Han has been serving by the girl's side for so many days, if the old lady is called out to sell her teeth like this, the girl will ask in the future, what if she blames them for this?

Ah Hua thought like this, raised his head and glanced at his own girl, intending to explain this matter to the girl clearly, but when she was about to speak, Dong Solstice took a step ahead of her.

"Girl, Miss Dahan is now imprisoned in the firewood room. When the girl burned that day, the old lady came to see you in person, asked the girl some things, and mistakenly thought that the girl was causing the girl to catch the cold, so she instructed the mother-in-law on the stove to detain the girl in the firewood room. ”

Dong Solstice said, paused, and said: "The old lady also said that after the girl recovered, she called someone to enter the house and sold the girl from the cold." ”

"It's not the cold that caused me to catch the cold, why didn't my grandmother find out what to blame on her? When I came back that day, I shouted Da Han to open the window, I knew that I was infected with the wind cold, and I also asked Da Han to open the window to blow the wind, which made my condition worse. ”

Gu Yutang said that, and was about to tell Ah Hua to invite the Lin family over.

Ah Hua felt that Gu Yutang's move was too hasty, if it was for a big cold, what should the girl and the old lady do? The girl's wind chill is better, and her body is still weak, but she can't stand the tiredness.

For the sake of Gu Yutang's body, Ah Hua couldn't help it, and finally persuaded him.

"Girl, Da Han and I are both maids who serve the girl closely, the girl has a cold and fever, so we didn't take good care of the girl. The girl doesn't have to argue with the old lady for our sake. Now the girl's body is not yet well, and the old lady said that she will not deal with the cold until the girl recovers, and we still have time. ”

Hearing Ah Hua say this, Gu Yutang's hanging heart gradually let go.

That day, she was too greedy for cold, thinking that it was just a fever, so she told Da Han to open the window in the house, blow the wind, and dissipate the heat. Who knew that it would get worse and worse, and finally I had a splitting headache and fainted.

Gu Yutang rested for a long time, and Dr. Qin came over with the medicine box to ask for peace pulse, looking at Gu Yutang with a worried look, thinking that she was worried about her illness, and casually comforted.

"The third girl's illness is already very good, if you continue to take it according to my prescription, I believe it will be cured in a few days. The three girls don't need to worry about this illness anymore, they have to cheer up! ”

Doctor Qin is only thirty now, wearing a blue-blue coarse cloth clothes, and the doctors in the pharmacy wearing gray coarse cloth clothes are obviously out of place.

Seeing that Gu Yutang didn't react at all, when Doctor Qin was about to continue, Ah Hua on the side pulled him aside and whispered: "Don't talk about Doctor Qin, my girl is worried about the cold now, if Doctor Qin is fine, please go back!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Ah Hua called Dong Solstice and personally sent Dr. Qin out of the East Chamber, and along the way, Dr. Qin still chattered and asked, "Winter Solstice girl, what's wrong with the third girl?" Are you not happy when you recover?"

Dong Zhi had no intention of talking to him, so he said: "Doctor Qin, let's see the doctor honestly, don't ask if you shouldn't ask." ”
