Chapter 54
The next day, the little eunuch of the Tai Hospital sent the festival gifts early in the morning, and Aunt Rong distributed them after breakfast. The things were sent to the 'pharmacy' room, and Bai Wei arranged for the little girls to send these gifts down with Poria. Somehow, it was supposed to be a festival according to people's hair, Xiangru just got an extra portion, and I don't know where it came from, Xiangru raised her eyebrows and accepted it directly, and tonight's supper has fallen.
When she came out of the house, she heard that Dr. Xie was looking for her and asked her to go to the kitchen to see what dishes were there today, and to cook something fresh during the holidays, so as not to 'waste' the good materials sent by Fei Tai Hospital.
Xiangru knew that this was to give her a chance to go outside to talk to Aunt Rong, she wanted to say it last night, but then she didn't have a chance.
At the behest of Shi Bo, Xiangru walked through several courtyards, went out from the corner 'door' of the backyard to the kitchen, and saw three elderly handymen in the yard washing dishes by the well, the kitchen workers were making preparations, and several cooks were not there for the time being.
The handymen didn't recognize Xiangru, but the kitchen workers did, and when they saw Xiangru coming, they all warmly gathered around her to say hello, and they all heard about yesterday's events.
Xiangru politely replied one by one, explaining her intentions, and everyone immediately took her to see the various 'meat' vegetables and fruits sent today. During the holidays, there are naturally some rare ingredients that are not usually eaten, Xiangru looked at them all, and had a new recipe in her mind, pointed to those dishes and carefully explained them to the cooks, and 'handed over' to do it carefully.
The cooks were busy responding.
After the business was 'handed over', Xiangru left, but after leaving the kitchen, she did not go back to the 'medicine' room, but turned along the path that she had walked countless times before to her aunts' residence.
Walking straight along the sandwich wall to the end is the residence of the current head of Aunt Rong, she moved in on the day the outgoing Aunt Xiao moved out, Xiangru gently pushed the courtyard 'door', the 'door' was not latched, and it opened as soon as she pushed.
As soon as Xiangru entered the courtyard and closed the courtyard door with her backhand, someone in the house heard the movement and came out to investigate, "Who?" ”
"Sister Gui, 'Jade', it's me, Xiangru." Hearing a familiar voice, Xiangru walked briskly up the steps.
"Oh, it's Xiangru, why do you have time to come here? By the way, I want to congratulate you, I have worshiped the imperial doctor as a teacher, I have been here for so many years, I have only heard of it before, and I will see you for the first time today. "'Jade' Gui lifted the curtain and came out to see that it was Xiangru, greeted her with a smile, took her hand into the hall, and led her directly into Aunt Rong's bedroom.
"Auntie, it's Xiangru who is here." 'Yu' Gui lifted the soft curtain, and pushed Xiangru to the table under the window as she walked inside.
Aunt Rong was in the office, with all kinds of account books spread out on the table, she looked up when she heard the sound, smiled happily, and immediately put down her pen, "Oh my son, how can I have time to come to see my aunt." Hurry up, 'Jade' Gui moves a chair, sit down and sit down. ”
'Jade' Gui moved a chair and put it opposite Aunt Rong and asked Xiangru to sit down, turned around and poured herbal tea to relieve the heat, Xiangru greeted the two while drinking, and said something about what happened after being transferred to the 'medicine' room, and Aunt Rong and 'Jade' Gui sighed for a while.
"Aunt Fang is not kind to you, just to show our Aunt Rong, trying to drive you out, I think it is just to put on a face in front of Aunt Rong, this 'woman' is really hateful!" 'Jade' Guiqi crooked his mouth.
"Although she is hateful, others can't do anything about her, and she doesn't trouble the doctors, and the doctors are not good at conflicting with her for irrelevant girls, they are usually busy with official business, and it is not easy to manage themselves." Xiangru came today to stir up trouble.
"Aunt Fang just knew this and did it on purpose, she knew that the doctors and wives would not stand up for the girls, the entire 'pharmacy' room was her territory, she had the final say, if it wasn't just in time for Aunt Xiao to leave, she didn't even think about it before she 'inserted' people into the halfway way." 'Yu' Gui has been an "assistant to the manager" for many years, and he already knows some things.
"This square papaya is really getting more and more excessive!" Aunt Rong heard that Xiangru was being bullied inside, and thought that Aunt Fang's 'woman' had never looked at her with a straight eye so far, and if she didn't take her as the aunt in charge, new hatred and old hatred came to her heart, and she was not angry.
"Auntie don't be angry, Aunt Fang's arrogance is coming to an end, Xiangru came today to tell you news, I want to hear your opinion first." Seeing that Aunt Rong's unhappiness was aroused, Xiangru immediately hit the snake with the stick.
"What's the news?" Aunt Rong's 'spirit' was refreshed.
'Jade' Gui also approached curiously and listened to what Xiangru said.
Xiangru glanced out the window to make sure that no one was eavesdropping, and then whispered mysteriously: "Auntie, do you know that the Tai Hospital originally planned to thoroughly investigate the 'waste' fee in the warehouse?" ”
"I've heard of it, it seems that I was going to check it every year, but then I didn't do it."
"Yes, that's the case, but I've heard the exact news, and I still have to do it, but I've decided to leave it to the next new envoy to do it, so that he can stand up."
"Really?!" Aunt Rong suddenly became energetic, hugged Xiangru's shoulders and stared at her, with irrepressible excitement on her face.
"Auntie, Xiangru has served you for so long, when has she ever lied to you?" Xiangru smiled sweetly.
"Hahaha, Fang Papaya, you are dying, look at how you die this time, who can hide the things in the 'pharmacy' store." Aunt Rong stood up, rubbing her hands together, while walking around the room, her mind was thinking about how to make Aunt Fang unable to turn over in this matter from now on.
"Auntie, are you planning to completely eradicate Aunt Fang and her henchmen?" Xiangru asked deliberately.
"What? Do you think she's still alive? Don't think that only a few of them know about the dirty things she did, how many people see it, it's just that it's none of her business, once this thorough investigation is found out, she will either die with her surname. ”
"Huh? What did Aunt Fang do to end up like this? "Xiangru and 'Jade' Gui were both frightened, they didn't expect such serious consequences, Xiangru thought it was just a political struggle, and Aunt Fang could do a lot of things as an aunt in charge.
"Or what do you think? Xiangru should have heard of the Beijing Gang led by Fang Papaya in the 'pharmacy', right? ”
"Well, I heard the doctors and wives chatting about it, it seems to mean that Aunt Fang and those people on the counter are from the capital, but no one knows what they have done behind their backs."
"Hmph, what else can I do, it's just relying on the convenience of the locals to do something shady."
"Does Auntie know the details?" 'Jade' Gui asked.
"Tsk, who knows, no one has ever caught the evidence." Aunt Rong told the truth.
"Auntie, then how do you know that Aunt Fang will definitely die a miserable death?"
"I don't know what she did, but everyone knows that the 'pharmacy' she manages is seriously wasted, and she has been taught repeatedly, why do you say so?"
Xiangru and 'Jade' Gui glanced at each other and shook their heads together, "I don't know." ”
"So oh, there must be something greasy, otherwise why don't you change it? If you don't change it, it means that there is a problem. Haha, it's going to be real, I'll see what she does! "Aunt Rong gloated.
"So that's the case, no wonder when I talked to the doctors last night, they all said that Aunt Fang might have an accident, and it would implicate many people, and the 'pharmacy' might be purged, and the hospital would directly send her father-in-law to take over. It turns out that they have long seen the stakes, but I don't know. ”
"You've just come, and you're busy studying every day, who will have nothing to tell you about delaying your homework, and it doesn't matter if you don't know. The doctors and women have to go out every day to see people, and there are many people they come into contact with, and they can hear a lot of news, and it is impossible for them not to know what they know. Rumors are heard a thousand times, and even the smartest people will believe them. I see, what is the thorough investigation of the 'drug' room's 'waste' fee, it is clear that I want to see if the 'drug' room is hiding from a big rat, so that the new hospital can make meritorious service and firmly sit in his position. ”
"Then aunt, you also have to be careful, once Aunt Fang has an accident, you, as the aunt in charge, will definitely have to bear certain responsibilities, and when the time comes, the new hospital envoy will not be ruthless, and it is also appropriate to directly take away your power."
"Yikes! What does this matter to me? How could the bad things she did implicate me?! Aunt Rong jumped to her feet on the spot.
"Xiangru, have you heard anything else, tell me about it, if something happens to Aunt Rong, what can you do?" 'Jade' Gui took Xiangru's arm and begged urgently.
"Well~ They said that Aunt Rong has been in office for so long, and she has never checked the accounts of the 'pharmacy', if the problem is found out by the Tai Hospital first, Aunt Rong's crime of dereliction of duty will not be able to escape, so it doesn't matter if you have just taken office, you will be degraded directly and everyone is comfortable."
After listening to Xiangru's words, Aunt Rong lost her mind for a while, her face was pale and she sat down on the chair, and 'Yu' Gui beat her back and 'rubbed' her chest to relieve her.
"I'm really angry, I'm angry, this damn *** is really a scourge, it's not enough to harm others, damn it!!" Aunt Rong came to her senses and slapped her big 'legs' and scolded.
"Auntie, don't care if Aunt Fang dies or not, think about what you want to do first, the old courtyard envoy will step down at the end of summer, and the new courtyard will make the early autumn take office, you still have about a month and a half to do." Xiangru reminded.
"Xiangru is good, teach your aunt, teach your aunt what to do? My aunt is now the master of the six gods~" Aunt Rong's life has been smooth, but she didn't think that she would encounter a major crisis in her life just after taking office for more than half a year, and she immediately panicked and ran out of ideas.
"Auntie, don't worry, there is a way, that is, you take the initiative to check the accounts of the 'pharmacy' first, report to the Tai Hospital after finding out the problem, and 'get' Aunt Fang and her subordinates together, and replace someone to be the aunt in charge. Your responsibilities are completely clear. "Xiangru learned what everyone said last night.
"Ah, yes, yes, yes, this method is good, just do it, check the accounts in the next few days, this dead 'woman' is going to die to her family, and there is no 'door' to accompany others to the funeral."
"But ......"
"But what?" Aunt Rong glared.
"This thing must be done neatly, quickly cut the 'messy' hemp, check the accounts, demote Aunt Fang, arrange the counter, appease everyone and assign a new aunt to be completed within a few days, because the 'pharmacy' can't be without the aunt in charge, so the new person must be very familiar with the various affairs of the 'pharmacy', so that the 'pharmacy' can get back on track as soon as possible, otherwise the hospital is likely to directly send his father-in-law to take over." You also know that the doctor is to serve the mother, and the 'pharmacy' can't be unmanned for a moment, and then you, the chief aunt, will be an empty doll. ”
"Ouch, isn't that a problem! Fang Papaya incident, her cronies have to be picked, and the cabinet must be cleaned, where is there a suitable person to replace her? ! I'm afraid that even a person who knows how to know 'medicine' and can catch 'medicine' and can use a knife in the girl at the bottom can't find it! If this hospital really wants to send my father-in-law, I can't refuse. Aunt Rong was really restless now, standing up for a while and sitting down for a while, her brows were twisted into pimples, and she didn't come up with a suitable solution.
"Xiangru, did they discuss any solutions when the doctors talked about this last night?" 'Jade' Gui was also panicked, but when he turned his head, he saw Xiangru looking like an old god, and there was a glimmer of hope in his heart.
"The doctor said a way, but if you think about it, I think it's a joke, because everyone was drunk at that time, or maybe it was drunk, so I still didn't say it, my aunt made up her own mind." Xiangru 'wants' to indulge in the past.
"Xiangru my son, good boy, my aunt wants to hear it, you learn it from your aunt, if you are drunk, your aunt will know when she hears it." Xiangru was like a lifesaver for Aunt Rong at this time.
"That's right, that's fine, I'll think about it." Xiangru lowered her head and deliberately fell silent
Entering the 'Door'
