Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Target

Xue's face was a little unbearable: "This is not this year, Sister Ran is married, the expenses are a bit large, and she is stretched, so she has to be a little shabby." ”

"Humph!" The old lady snorted coldly: "Your swallow mouth snatches mud, and the caustic reputation of the Buddha statue peeling gold has long been spread, if it is not this one, don't rely on Sister Ran's head." You have lost and earned yourself, and you know it, or we will settle this account one by one. ”

Xue Shi whispered: "My lord is a brainless, he is an official and decent, he has never taken a single rice husk to his home, and the court's money is not enough for his own expenses, and the courtesy is still exchanged." The daily expenses of the family depend on the income of the shop, and I can barely get by, and I am also trying to be frugal. ”

Xue is telling the truth, although Xia Yuan has no political achievements as an official and is looked down upon, but he is a cowardly person who does not dare to steal from prison like other officials, take advantage of his position to enrich his own pockets, and bend the law for bribes.

And he doesn't have a lot of money, and he really doesn't have enough affection for the New Year.

"You also know that it is not easy for a man to support his family, and behind those long-term workers in our house are also a large family, young and old, all counting on this salary. During the New Year's holidays, a little meat and rice can make their family have a happy reunion festival, and they will work hard to do things for you. You've deducted them all, how much can you have? A little sesame, you can't make a fortune, but you have suffered these long-term jobs! ”

The old lady chattered and chattered, Xue's face was so ashamed that she hurriedly admitted her mistake: "My daughter-in-law knows that she is wrong, and when the long-term workers come back after the holiday, what should be made up will not fall." ”

The old lady nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, this reputation is not changed, especially if your own man is still an official in the court, don't go out and be scolded by someone pointing at your backbone." ”

Xue Shi only responded, and the old lady changed the topic again: "In a blink of an eye, several sisters have reached the age of talking about marriage, and you, as a mother, have to worry about labor and teach more." Otherwise, if you marry someone in the future, there will be no rules, and you will be sent back by your in-laws, and your Xia family's face will be lost. ”

Xue was taught by the old lady in front of so many juniors, and he couldn't help it, so he could only listen with his head down: "Sister Zheng, this child was single-handedly adjusted and taught by your mother, and Ansheng and her sisters naturally dare not compare." However, Zixian Ziwu and Ziwu all stayed at home in peace, learning female red, and familiarizing themselves with "Female Commandments", and their daughter-in-law did not dare to slack off for a moment. ”

The old lady didn't like Xue's eyes, and she could pick out the reason horizontally and vertically: "Ziwu is just fine, Zixian has been weak since she was a child, didn't the doctor say that she can't work hard, pay attention to let her combine work and rest, and she can't be too tired." ”

Xia Zixian hurriedly got up and defended: "Mother has been telling me all the time, thank you grandmother for worrying." ”

The old lady snorted angrily: "One by one, I don't feel at ease." ”

An Zheng tugged the woolen felt that had slipped off her knees in a moment of excitement and wrapped her knees tightly.

The old lady thumped her legs and frowned.

An Zheng immediately asked with concern: "Do you need to get you a soup woman?" ”

The old lady waved her hand: "That's it, it won't do much to cover it, don't toss." ”

On the side, Xia Zixian also asked worriedly: "Grandmother, but her leg disease has been committed again?" ”

The old lady nodded: "I can't delay the mistake when the sky changes in any year, and I can't sleep well at night because of the pain." ”

Xia Zixian stopped talking, glanced at An Sheng, and said, "If grandmother is in severe pain, why don't you let the second sister show you." ”

An Sheng immediately raised his face and looked at Xia Zixian in surprise, a little surprised.

The old lady twisted her face and asked suspiciously, "An Sheng?" What will she be looking at? “

Xue slapped his thigh and stood up: "Oops, how did I forget?" My mother didn't know that An Sheng was now terrible, and she was worshipping under the cold god doctor and learning acupuncture. For her, this wind and cold disease should be within her reach. “

"Cold Divine Doctor?" The eldest lady exclaimed: "But the cold doctor who is praised by the current emperor as 'medicine and incense'? ”

On the side, Xia Ziwu replied: "Exactly." ”

The old lady asked suspiciously, "Who is the cold god doctor?" ”

The eldest lady replied: "Your old nobleman forgets a lot, you forgot that the master in the palace was sick two years ago, and the imperial doctors were all helpless, and he unveiled the emperor's list and cured him." The emperor wanted to keep him in the palace as a royal doctor and reward him with an errand to be sentenced by the deputy court, but he refused, and ordinary people could not move. How could Sister Sheng's great creation be appreciated by the cold god doctor? ”

"I remembered you when you mentioned it." The old lady groaned slightly, turned her face to look at An Sheng, who had been silent: "A girl who has not yet left the cabinet, what kind of medical skills do you want to learn?" In the future, he will have a husband and children, and he cannot hang a pot to help the world. ”

An Sheng didn't expect that the Xue family would take the initiative to let him diagnose and treat the old lady, and led the old lady's war to himself, and smiled sweetly: "The fourth sister Zixian's vertigo is difficult to cure for a long time, and my father is fortunate to invite the cold doctor to go to the house for treatment." Doctor Leng said that acupuncture can be eradicated, but it requires perseverance. We can't always bother the divine doctor in the house, thanks to the divine doctor's refusal to give up, I learned the art of acupuncture, hoping to do my part for my sister to be a sister. ”

The old lady's anger gradually subsided, and she snorted coldly: "This reason can barely be said, the old doctor is willing to give you some advice, which can be regarded as a little of your creation." ”

Xia Ziwu on the side covered her lips and chuckled, and sneered: "It's still an old miracle doctor, but it's just a young man, and a lonely man and a widow, always in the same room, and he doesn't panic." ”

Xia Zixian hurriedly tugged on Xia Ziwu's sleeve: "The third sister is a bit exaggerated, there were still patients coming and going in the past." ”

It's good that she didn't explain, this explanation was tantamount to adding fuel to the fire, and the ladies present began to talk about it.

The old lady was also anxious suddenly: "How can that be?!" There are many people with mixed mouths, and if it is spread again, do you still want this famous festival? It's ridiculous! These children are confused, is it possible that the second family is also confused? How do you not know discipline? Rice salted salt that I have eaten for decades in vain! ”

An Sheng hurriedly explained: "There are not only me and Doctor Leng in the medicine house, but also two people, a sister-in-law and a child. ”

"That's out of place! Can the sisters in our house be the same as those wild girls in the countryside? Don't care? ”

The eldest lady also echoed and said: "Your grandmother is also for your good, and she is worried that she will chew the root of her tongue with ulterior motives and ruin her reputation, which is exactly the key to the marriage, and it will be difficult to marry in the future." ”

An Sheng didn't expect that Xia Ziwu and Xia Zixian would bring up the old things again in public today, singing and adding oil and vinegar. Grandmother values the reputation of this boudoir the most, and the rules are strict, so she will definitely prevent herself from going to the pharmacy to study medicine in the future.

An Zheng raised his face and coaxed in a soft voice: "Grandmother, you are angry, if you have something to say, your knees are finally hot, and you can't stand the cool breeze." ”

The old lady snorted angrily, still angry: "I can't write two summer characters with one stroke, what they have lost is our face, can we be anxious?" ”

She thumped her knees, which were a little sore, and there was some pinprick pain, and she couldn't help but "hiss" lightly.

Xia Zixian said with a guilty face: "If grandmother is to blame, blame Zixian." It's all because of the purple fiber body, the second sister went to learn this acupuncture technique for me. ”

The voices that spoke were trembling and trembling, and the eyebrows were frowning, which made me feel sorry and couldn't bear to blame.

Xue sighed distressedly: "I am also strongly opposed to letting An Sheng show up, but Zixian's condition has obviously improved, and there is hope for a cure, and I, as a mother, are also contradictory." ”

The old lady had a look of hesitation on her face, and it was obvious that she was a little soft-hearted.

Xia Zixian immediately saw the stitches: "Grandmother, Doctor Leng Shen has excellent medical skills, this acupuncture technique is really worthy of its name, you might as well let An Sheng show you first." What if it really works? It's also a good thing. ”

When the eldest lady on the side heard this, she immediately objected: "Doctor Leng's medical skills are naturally nothing to say, but how many days has my sister just studied?" What kind of fur can you understand? This is not a joke, it is too bold to let her give your grandmother acupuncture. “

As soon as the eldest lady Shen spoke, the young ladies below immediately echoed it. An Sheng didn't say a word, but became the target of everyone.
