Chapter Ninety-Six: The Contest Between Old Ginger and Young Ginger

What Mama Xu meant was that first of all, she was sent by the elders of the third lady to visit her, and she couldn't refuse to see her.

Second, Mrs. Chen, as the elder of the third lady, knew that the third lady was sick, and there was no one around her who could call the shots, and she didn't care about it, and she didn't have the face to see the eldest lady of the Wang family, who had a good personal relationship with her, in the future.

Third, if the third lady is afraid of going out, it is not convenient to invite the doctor into the courtyard to see a doctor, just right, she, the grandmother who came to ask for peace, will have some tricks.

The maid hesitated for a while, and when she saw that Mama Xu was very persistent, she ran to report it again.

This time, there was also a delicate girl who came out with the little maid and looked much more decent than the average little maid. The girl smiled before she spoke, and walked towards Mama Xu early.

"Maid Bai Ying, I've seen Mama Xu."

Mama Xu hurriedly stepped forward to help Bai Ying, glanced Bai Ying up and down, and said with a smile: "Good girl, how is your young lady now?" ”

Bai Ying glanced behind her when she heard this, and said with a hint of helplessness: "Miss, she is sick, and she refuses to see anyone or find a doctor." Mama Xu, please forgive me, don't blame our young lady for being rude. ”

Mama Xu's eyes flashed, but she suddenly said with a straight face: "Girl, it's not my old woman who wants to preach." This is the duty of a maid to be respectful and supple to the master, but if the master does something wrong, he must dare to stand up and persuade him, which is what a loyal servant does. Since the third lady is sick, how can you condone her to avoid seeing the doctor like this? If it drags on like this, what kind of thing will you drag out, and what will you have to go back to meet your old lady? ”

Bai Ying was a little reluctant to say anything when she heard this, and finally smiled and said, "Mama said yes, but our young lady is her." She...... Ay! ”

Mama Xu stepped forward with a smile and patted Bai Ying's hand and said, "Don't worry, girl. Our young lady is about the same age as Miss Wang San, and it is also the time when she is willful and naughty, but she just listens to the persuasion of the old slave, so the old slave has some experience in persuading the little master. And let the old slave go in and persuade him, and let the third lady cure the illness so that she can go back to see the old lady. ”

As she spoke, Mama Xu bypassed Bai Ying and went straight to the house.

Mama Xu directly regarded Sanniang's refusal as a child's willfulness, and her stubbornness in this way has also changed from the following offense to a loyal servant who can't see the little master's illness and wants to persuade because of his small temperament.

"Eh, Mama Xu. Please stay. Bai Ying was stunned for a moment, and then chased after Mama Xu to stop her, but unexpectedly, the two mammas behind Mama Xu stepped forward without a trace to block Bai Ying, and Bai Ying fell behind them.

Mama Xu walked like a fly. Soon walked to the door of Sanniang. After a pause, he bowed down and said, "Third Miss, the old slave is Mama Xu beside Mrs. Chen Zhizhou, and she came to visit you on the order of our wife. It is not okay to avoid medical treatment. The old slave is really worried about the third lady's condition, please forgive the old slave for offending. ”

Saying that, Mama Xu stretched out her hand to push the door, the cypress door was heavy, because the bearing on the door had not been oiled for a long time, and the sound of "squeak" made the roots of people's teeth sour.

"Ahh There was a scream from inside.

Mama Xu was stunned. But the hand pushed the door open with a sharp force.

"Third Miss, don't be afraid, just let the old slave come in alone. They're all out there, so you can ask the old slave to take a look at them. Mama Xu said loudly as she looked into the room by the light shining into the room through the open door.

I saw a white figure, quickly got into the yellow rosewood carved shelf bed facing the door, and casually waved the azure sprinkled gauze tent on one side from the brass tent hook to cover himself.

Mama Xu tried to walk slowly to the side of the bed, and at the same time tried to look into the bed from the foot of the bed that was not covered by a gauze tent.

"Mama Xu." Bai Ying ran in, opened her hands and stopped in front of Mama Xu, and said pleadingly: "Mama Xu, please don't force our young lady." ”

When Mama Xu heard this, she smiled slightly, but there was no smile in her eyes: "What the girl said is not right, how can Mama force your young lady?" Mama just wants to see how sick she is, and in the future, our wife can also have an explanation when she sees the old lady and the eldest lady of the Wang family. Good girl, don't make a mess, get out of the way. ”

Saying that, Mama Xu quickly stretched out her left hand and grabbed Bai Ying's arm, pulled her hard outward, and pulled the right curtain with her right hand.

"Ahh

Mama Xu was stunned for a moment, her eyes quickly looked inside the bed, and she didn't find anyone else.

Mama Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the person on the bed and said with a smile: "Ouch, third miss, this is?" But what grievances have you suffered? Come, let Mama see. ”

Although she said this, Mama Xu didn't want to be tough anymore, and just stood aside respectfully with her hands down.

"Miss, since Mama Xu is already here, can you let her take a look? Mama Xu is so enthusiastic, and she is the old mama next to Mrs. Chen, maybe she can find a way to cure your face? It's not a problem for you to hide like this. Bai Ying stepped forward and persuaded in a low voice.

"Face? What happened to Miss Three's face? Mama Xu looked at Bai Yingdao.

Bai Ying's eyes quickly turned red, and she choked up: "Mama, you don't know, yesterday when we were waiting for the old man outside the city, Miss She didn't know what kind of insect she was bitten by and had poisonous gas, and when she came here to bathe, she was flushed with the hot water and the poisonous gas came out, and there were a lot of red rashes on her face that night." Our young lady was very frightened, and she was thin-skinned, and she was afraid that the rash on her face would be seen and laughed at her, so she was only willing to let the slave and maid serve her closely. The slave maid originally thought that if she looked at it like this first, she might be fine in the future, but by this morning, the rash was getting worse and worse. The slave doesn't know what to do! The old lady went out early this morning, and there were no other elders around the young lady, Mama, you are so enthusiastic, just help the slave come up with an idea, right? If the young lady's face is not good, the slave will inevitably be punished by the old lady when she goes back. As he spoke, he covered his face and began to cry.

The fact that the old man of the Wang family lost a bird when he was outside the city yesterday and left his grandchildren outside the city to chase the bird has spread all over the city, and it has added fun to the entire Shandong Province official family after dinner.

Naturally, she had heard about it, and told it to her wife as a joke. Early this morning, when the old man sent someone to look for her, she was also teaching the vegetable buyers who saw the old lady Wang go out of the city early in the morning to find birds.

"Miss, just let Mama Xu take a look, just take a look! Mama, she won't laugh at you. Bai Ying pleaded with the person on the bed while sobbing.

The little girl on the bed hesitated for a moment, but finally raised her head slightly.

Mama Xu then looked at that face, Rao is well-informed, but also not lightly. Originally, it was almost impossible to see what that face looked like, and the whole face stretched all the way to the neck, and now it was densely covered with red rashes the size of rice grains. The girl only glanced at Mama Xu and buried her head again.

Mama Xu subconsciously frowned and took a step back.

"Mama, can you help our young lady? Didn't you say you would? Can you help our young lady to open a prescription. Bai Ying stepped forward and pulled Mama Xu's sleeve and looked at her expectantly.

Mama Xu retracted her hand, glanced at her sleeve, and tried her best to make her smile soft: "The girl said that she was laughing, how can you take the medicine indiscriminately?" And the old slave will only see some small problems with the cold and flu, but the old slave has never seen this kind of symptom of the third lady. ”

The third lady's face is like this, she doesn't dare to help her mess around. If it is good, it may be able to get a face-saving thank you from the Wang family, but if it is not good, then she may be blamed for delaying her illness. Since then, people just like to remember the bad and not the good.

But when it came to prescribing medicine, Mama Xu's heart moved, and the little girl outside just now said that she had brought medicine to the third lady twice. Didn't you say that you had never asked for a doctor? Where did this medicine come from?

At this time, someone outside shouted softly: "Mama Xu." ”

Mama Xu heard that it was the mother-in-law sent to the kitchen, so she smiled and confessed to Sanniang and Bai Ying, and walked towards the door.

"How?" Mama Xu asked in a low voice.

"There is really a medicine jar on the small stove in the kitchen, there are still some medicine residues left in it, the slave and maid poured it out and checked it, there are parsnip, tribulus terrestris, black snake, atractylodes and bitter ginseng, etc., all of which are some antidote and fire clearing medicines."

Mama Xu nodded, it seems that the third lady really has a rash on her face, and she doesn't want to call the doctor to come and see the embarrassment, so she quietly ordered the maid to boil some antidote.

Thinking of this, Mama Xu changed her smiling face, and wanted to turn back to the house to say a few more words, but she happened to catch a glimpse of the little girl named Bai Ying reaching out and scratching her face.

Mama Xu sighed in her heart and couldn't help but restrain her feet.

"Third Miss, since your situation is already known to the slave maid, then without further ado, the slave and maid will go back to the lady and ask her to invite you a doctor who is good at treating this disease. In order not to delay your illness, the slave and maid will not go in. As she spoke, Mama Xu bowed deeply to the house at the door.

"Hey, Mama Xu, you wait." Bai Ying took a few steps out, as if she was about to chase out.

Mama Xu hurriedly raised her hand and said, "The girl is here to serve your young lady well, don't come out, hurry up and close the doors and windows tightly, it is inevitable that the wind will worsen her condition." ”

Bai Ying paused, nodded and said gratefully: "The slave knows, thank you Mama Xu." It's just that my young lady is so good-looking, and I ask you not to tell anyone else about this matter except Mrs. Chen. ”

Mama Xu smiled: "I know this." After saying this, he glanced at the rest of the mothers-in-law, and the leader went to the outer courtyard.

Bai Ying waited for her to go away, couldn't help but secretly cover her mouth and smile, and looked up just in time to see the little maid at the gate of the courtyard who pointed out the kitchen to Mama Xu and stuck out her tongue at her, making a grimace, and couldn't help glaring at her and closing the door tightly.

"Miss, Mama Xu, she is gone, thanks to a mother-in-law who happens to have sores on her body and has been taking medicine for the past few days." (To be continued.)
