Chapter 257: Writing a Note
Meng Jun's expression was cold, staring at Master Meng, and said word by word: "You are crazy to think about the consequences of doing this!" ”
This bastard still dares to mention the consequences to him?! Old Man Meng's teeth itched with hatred, what did he do? He only spent a thousand taels of silver on this kid, so what, isn't it natural for Lao Tzu to spend his son's money! This bastard dares to sell Lao Tzu's house and abuse his own brother, what else does he dare not do?
"You're scared of you?" Old Man Meng snorted angrily, but looking at Meng Jun's cold expression, he was always a little lacking in confidence, and shouted: "Lao Tzu has eaten more salt than you have eaten rice, dare to threaten Lao Tzu?" You bastard......"
"What do you want to do?" Jin Qing couldn't get used to hearing him scolding Meng Jun with foul language, and interrupted Old Man Meng's words with a frown, "Shujuan, I have already married her off." "In other words, it's useless if you want to hit her.
"Give me a thousand taels of silver!" Old man Meng opened his mouth very confidently, and rubbed his head that was aching because of typhoid fever and fever, "There are also 1,000 taels of silver for treatment, what bullshit is too doctoral, it's not good to be cured for so long!" ”
"What are you talking about! I got sick yesterday, how can I be good today, and besides, Jinqing's imperial doctor was given by the emperor, are you dissatisfied with the first emperor? "It doesn't matter how Old Man Meng scolds himself, Meng Jun just can't hear someone scolding Jinqing.
"Humph! You two are working together! Old Man Meng sneered, "Hurry up and get the silver, otherwise my father will be sick and dizzy and there will be no one to serve, I don't know what will happen!" ”
Meng Jun's hand clenched into a fist, Jin Qing took his hand, and asked Old Man Meng calmly: "My daughter-in-law has a few questions I want to ask my father-in-law first, first, after giving the silver, will you not mention Shujuan's matter, and second, is it the last time you come to ask for silver?" ”
Old Man Meng hurriedly assured when he saw that there was a play, "If I have money to buy other maids, I will not be constrained by that girl, and I will not come again in the future." "What's the use of smug promises in my heart? When he was young, when General Meng wanted to beat him up as a loser, he cried bitterly and promised that he would never be ridiculous again, and he hadn't always enjoyed it now?
"Okay." Jin Qing looked at him and said, "Even if this silver is our filial piety to my father-in-law, it's just that it's a little late today, and the bookkeeper has gone home and the silver can only be given tomorrow, so let's rest tonight." ”
Old Man Meng was not at ease, and repeatedly confirmed, "Really give the silver tomorrow?" ”
Jin Qing saw that his eyes were full of greed and surprise, and she couldn't help but feel nauseous for a while, and said lightly: "Isn't my father-in-law going to shout everywhere, can I still not give it!" ”
Old man Meng got cheap, rubbed his forehead, and finally asked for silver, and it was not in vain that he poured himself a bucket of cold water ruthlessly, and he was sick for such a time, but seeing the disdainful look of his son and daughter-in-law, the old face was a little unbearable after all, rubbing his hands and laughing: "We are a family, close relatives, how can we come to this point, my father is just angry and angry, you are juniors, don't take it to heart." ”
Jin Qing was too lazy to say more to Old Man Meng, and she felt sick in her heart when she looked at the ugly face, the general Meng Dechang had a kind and simple personality, and many people have praised him for many years.
After coming out of Old Man Meng's courtyard, Meng Jun frowned and took Jin Qing's hand and said, "Qingqing, do you really want to give him silver?" He's got a taste of the sweetness this time, and next time his appetite will be even greater, don't believe the nonsense he promised. ”
Jin Qing's eyes were sharp, "Naturally, it is impossible to give it to him, I will go out later, you told someone to watch the yard tightly, don't let him come out." ”
Jin Qing went directly to Qinghetang in the carriage, the sky gradually darkened, when Jinqing arrived, the guys of Qinghetang were ready to close, Jiang Chen and Ding Linhe sat in the lobby, dialing the abacus beads to keep accounts.
"Yo, this is a rare guest!" Jiang Chen smiled, and Ding Linhe put down the pen in his hand and greeted him.
Jin Qing waved his hand to let the guys go down, leaving only Jiang Chen and Ding Linhe, the three of them, closed the door of the shop again, wrote down the names of the medicinal materials on the paper, handed them to Ding Linhe, and said: "According to what I wrote, help me complete these medicinal materials, I want a small amount, don't register in the account." ”
Jiang Chen leaned over and looked at it, he didn't know much about this, Ding Linhe glanced at it, his face changed, he glanced left and right, and said in a low voice: "What do you want these for?" ”
Jin Qing shook his head, "I'll have a useful place for this, you can just give it to me." ”
Ding Linhe glanced at Jin Qing silently, turned around with the paper and went to the counter, carefully weighed and wrapped it into several small paper bags according to the recipe on the paper, and handed it to Jin Qing.
Jin Qing stuffed the small paper bag into his sleeve, put the prescription he had just written on the oil lamp and lit it, and soon, the paper was reduced to ashes under the engulfment of the flames.
Jiang Chen also realized that something was wrong, and looked at Jin Qing worriedly, "Now that your identity is different, you have to be careful, and you don't have to do it until you have to......" He wanted to say don't do anything about poisoning people, it would be found out, but he felt that it was inappropriate, and he was anxious but couldn't say it.
Jin Qing laughed and patted Jiang Chen's shoulder, he was still the innocent big boy he was at the beginning, "Don't worry, I am measured, and there will be nothing out of the ordinary." ”
Back at the General's Mansion, Jin Qing handed over the paper bag in his sleeve to Mama Lei, and half an hour later, Old Man Meng's decoction was also fried.
Old man Meng fought even better, he was in a very good mood, and he saw that the person who delivered the medicine was a half-old woman, although he was not happy in his heart, he didn't care about it, he picked up the bowl and drank it clean, the silver was about to arrive, he didn't need to be sick, he should take care of his body as soon as possible and enjoy it.
Mama Lei straightened her face seriously, watched him drink all the medicine with cold eyes, took the medicine bowl back, but did not take it to the kitchen, first took the well water and washed the bowl, the washed water splashed on the ground, and the medicine residue was spread on the ground.
Early the next morning, as soon as the sky turned white, Jin Qing arrived at the door of Old Man Meng's room to greet him. Jin Qing didn't sleep well last night, her hands and feet were trembling slightly, Meng Jun hugged her tightly, and whispered to comfort her before falling asleep in the middle of the night.
The little guy guarding the door stepped forward and saluted and said embarrassedly: "Madam, I have called the old man three times, he ...... Can't get up. ”
Jin Qing sneered in his heart, he would have a ghost if he could get up, but there was a worried look on his face, "The old man didn't sleep well last night?" ”
What Jin Qing arranged for Old Man Meng was to serve the little guys, and he would never let him. Seeing the maid in the house, which one did he fall in love with in the province, she didn't believe that Old Man Meng was old and could still play back the mountain.
Xiao Wu said: "Since the second half of last night, the old man began to sweat, I wiped his body a few times, and he still muttered that it would be good to sweat, at that time the old man looked very good, his body was not burning, and his head did not hurt anymore, who knew that he was seriously ill again this morning after sleeping in the middle of the night." ”
Jin Qing taught him seriously: "How did you serve the old man?" Why didn't you come and tell me if something so big happened? The old man is old, in case there is a good one, who can bear it? ”
The little girl is thirteen or fourteen years old and has not grown in size, her face is still a little immature, and her face is pale, and Jin Qing thinks that the performance is too much, and it is not good to make this innocent little boy frightened... Hurriedly softened his tone and said, "But you haven't slept all night to serve the old man, this is very good, go to the account room to get five taels of silver, and say that it is my reward." ”
The little guy thought that he was going to be scolded and sold, but he didn't expect that there were good things waiting for him, so he immediately kowtowed to Jinqing happily and rushed out.
Mama Lei smiled behind Jinqing: "Madame is really kind-hearted. Jin Qing thought about it, and there was a sick old man Meng who couldn't get out of bed through the door, and suddenly felt that Mama Lei was telling a cold joke.
After pushing open the door, a sultry air mixed with the smell of sweat came to his face, Jin Qing stood at the door and waited for a while, the smell dissipated a little, and then carried the skirt into the room.
Old Man Meng was lying on the bed panting heavily, he raised his eyelids when he heard the footsteps, and when he saw that it was Jinqing, he immediately chirped and shouted, "Daughter-in-law, what is that............"
Jin Qing leaned into his ear and said softly: "Did my father ask for silver?" ”
Old Man Meng nodded immediately, nothing is more important than the twenty taels of silver, at least enough for him to spend half a year!
Jin Qing smiled, and the smile gave Old Man Meng infinite confidence, "Father-in-law, don't worry, the silver is in the treasury, you are not well yet, why don't you wait until you are well and then take it?" ”
Old Man Meng was immediately unhappy, and he forced himself to stand up, but the little guy outside the door immediately came in and helped him sit up, coughing a few times, Old Man Meng couldn't say a word, "Don't ...... I want to do it! ”
Jin Qing patted Old Man Meng on the back with filial piety, "How can I treat you badly!" Aren't you sick now and can't get out of bed, this typhoid fever is going to be very good, even if you are a young person, it takes half a month, not to mention that you are old, if you fall into the root of the disease, as long as the weather turns cold, you will have to cough and stay in bed. ”
Old man Meng had a headache, was afraid of cold and coughed, it really made him uncomfortable, as soon as he heard Jin Qing say that he would fall ill if he didn't raise it well, he was a little worried and afraid, and quickly lay back in the quilt, still not worried about the silver, and he was not at ease before it reached his hands.
"The silver ......," Old Man Meng asked cheekily.
Jin Qing sighed, "If my father-in-law doesn't believe in my daughter-in-law, then call Aunt Qian over, give her and her eldest brother the silver and transport it back to Mengfu, and you stay with your daughter-in-law to recuperate, what do you think?" ”
This is true, and the old man Meng only felt that his daughter-in-law was extremely intimate and filial in his drowsiness, and selectively forgot that a few months ago, this fierce daughter-in-law rushed into his house with troops, tied up all his concubines and sold them clean.
Just about to say yes, Old Man Meng immediately retracted this idea, the Qian family is no longer with him now, she has been talking all day long about leaving some family property for her two sons and her eldest grandson, if it is all given to her, maybe how much she selfishly left to them, and how much can she take when she goes back?
Old man Meng was undecided, thinking about it, his head hurt more and more, he was not at ease if he didn't hold the silver in his hands, and he was even more uneasy when he handed it over to Aunt Qian, it really made him unruly, alas, obviously he sweated last night, he should have been fine, all blamed on him for having to get a real illness at the beginning, if he pretended to be sick, now he can go directly to chic with the silver.
"So be it." Jin Qing was considerate, "I will write a note of twenty taels of silver to my father-in-law, and when my father-in-law recovers from his illness, he can go to the account office at any time to pay the money from the account, how about it?" ”
Old Man Meng's eyes widened, he let out brilliance, and he sighed a few times, feeling that this idea was good, but then he was worried again, these two daughters-in-law are known for being sharp and cunning, what if she doesn't admit it when the time comes?
"What if the account office doesn't listen to me and doesn't give it to me?" Old man Meng was smart and didn't say anything, afraid that Jin Qing would not admit it.
Jin Qing said with a smile: "I am a dignified second-class order, the master of the General's Mansion, I signed the note I wrote by myself and pressed my fingerprint, and the account office dared to deny it?" Even when you go to the Yamen, you have to recognize it! ”
Old Man Meng was relieved and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Waiting for Jinqing to send the two thousand taels of silver that he signed and pressed his handprint, and stuffed it into his chest like a baby, he was afraid that he would sweat and soak the strip, so he quickly took it out and put it in the purse hanging at the head of the bed, and then thought about it for fear that the little girl's hands and feet would not be clean, and when he fell asleep and stole it, he put it under the pillow again, and tossed back and forth for most of the day, and finally found the place he thought was safe in the dizziness, and stuffed it into the gap between his bed and the wall, not afraid that someone would find out.
In Jinqing's bedroom, Mama Lei washed the red mud on her fingers with the water in the basin and asked, "Madam, what if the old man finds out that the note and handprint are not yours, what if you make a fuss again?" ”
Jin Qing leaned on the couch, leisurely took a piece of grass and teased the hair ball that was scratched around with his claws, and said with a smile: "Then I have to wait until he has the life to get up and ask me for money." ”
For the sake of world peace, for the sake of human health, and for the sake of protecting the environment, Old Man Meng will be sick like this, he will always be left alive, and he will not be short-lived.
Jin Qing is not merciful to everyone, if someone crosses her bottom line, the devil in her heart will be released, just like she took revenge on Du Xuexiang in the first place.
Without waiting for the two to say a few words, the mother-in-law guarding the door came to report, saying that Adjutant Meng had brought Shujuan to give Jinqing tea.
Jin Qing hurriedly sat up straight, supported the somewhat crooked bun on his head, and said to the door, "Come in." ”
Meng Bao took Shujuan's hand, and the two of them entered the house together, Shujuan's face was delicate and shy, and her little hand was pulled by Meng Bao's big hand to stand behind Meng Bao, with a gentle posture of a bird, completely different from the bold and brutal little pepper before.
I guess last night's X life was very harmonious! As soon as Jin Qing saw Shujuan like this, she was obviously very well moisturized, and she couldn't help but think crookedly, and after coming back to her senses, she spurned herself and sighed, sure enough, married women don't see anything pure.
