Chapter Ninety-Three: Grapevine
Ji Wenqi didn't know much about it, but he only knew a little bit about it, and the county lords were dealing with the Qin cha who came to Beijing at this time, saying that the lockdown order had not been lifted, and they didn't want to get out of the city.
It's just that the reason for the closure of the city is not known because of the epidemic malaria in the city or something else, but during this time, I can't say anything about going out easily. If they provoke people's eyes, they will become the frontmen, and they will not be good at anything.
At this time, Liu Daniu stopped talking, and waited for Ji Wenqi to finish speaking.
"We won't go anywhere during this time, don't mess with people, and if you can't say anything, there will be people watching us." The people in Ji Wenqi's words include a lot of people, such as the people of the Qin family, and the Qin steward and the like are still staring at them, just waiting for them to do something wrong and attack them in groups.
Ji Guan sighed in advance, let the rest of the people disperse, looked at Liu Daniu with a dull expression and said, "You don't have to worry, how can you say that Dr. Shen is also watching by his side, you ...... Relaxation is. ”
Liu Daniu's worries and the people close to them in Jirentang know that this world is unpredictable and can only be comforted, after all, if the county does not give an order, it is impossible for them to break out, after all, there are so many heavy guards. If you really do something brainy, the government will be involved in Jirentang as soon as it is investigated.
There are so many people in Jirentang, but they can't just take care of themselves and not think about others. Many people also have wives and children in their homes, and they can't afford to pay for their lives.
Liu Da Niu also knew what he meant, and nodded heavily, which was considered to be a response.
"It's not too early, so I'll go back first." Steward Ji got up and left the front of the hall.
There were only two people left in the hall, Liu Da Niu and Ji Wenqi, the cold wind outside was blowing, Ji Wenqi thought that Liu Da Niu was still thinking about something, so he didn't make a sound and only looked at the flickering candle flame.
"You say, am I a failure as a man." Liu Da Niu said coldly.
When Ji Wenqi heard this, he turned his head to look at Liu Da Niu in astonishment. Liu Daniu lowered his head, and he couldn't see any expression from his perspective, Ji Wenqi thought about it, and still wanted to ask: "Why do you say this?" ”
"As a son, he is too busy to stay at home all day long, and he can't take care of his old mother; As a husband, I marry someone home, leave it at home and ignore it, run around all day long, let my wife wait for me at home, am I still worthy of being a son and a husband? Liu Daniu supported his forehead with both hands, and his tone was a little heavy.
Aunt Liu has always been very strong, more tenacious than ordinary women's minds, otherwise she would not have pulled him to grow up alone. But when he grows up, there is less and less time, less and less time to accompany him, he is really afraid that one day, as others say, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the son wants to raise but does not wait.
is even more guilty about Juanxiu, and when she marries someone and goes home, she has to take care of her husband and mother-in-law in addition to her. Now that she is about to give birth, and he can't be with him at home, this husband is not a failure.
"They know what the situation is and they won't blame you, besides, Dr. Shen is also by his side, so you don't have to worry too much." Ji Wenqi has been a person since he can remember, and he can't understand what Liu Daniu thinks.
He had no wife or children, but he was alone. The most important person is Steward Ji, he can't personally understand Liu Daniu's feelings, so naturally he can't say anything, so he can only comfort him to the greatest extent.
Liu Da Niu didn't speak for a long time, and finally with a cold wind, he straightened up, raised his head, brushed his face, and said in a dry voice: "It's late at night, rest early." ”
Ji Wenqi didn't know whether this person wanted to open it or not, watching him stride away, shrugging helplessly, looking at the dark courtyard outside, and drinking the cold tea in the teacup alone.
Before the sky was bright, Aunt Huang took advantage of the fact that the Huang family did not get up, and quietly walked to the stove room alone. He took out the medicine jar hidden in the corner and busily made a fire to fry the medicine.
Aunt Huang thought while lighting a fire, "Isn't it too cautious to do this, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a thief." ”
She was so busy thinking about things that she naturally didn't notice the person at the door of the stove room.
Jiang Mi was awakened by the three urgency, she thought it was too cold outside and didn't want to get up, until she heard movement outside. She thought about how someone got up so early, and she got up with her curiosity, and when she opened the crack in the door, she saw Aunt Huang who was cautious.
At that moment, there was only one thought in her mind, and that was to follow and see.
As a result, I followed to the stove room and found that Aunt Huang was just for decoction. No wonder I can always smell a bitter smell of medicine these days, and when I saw that no one said to drink Chinese medicine, I thought I smelled it wrong.
Now the truth is revealed, it turns out that Aunt Huang is secretly decocting medicine and drinking. If you decoct the medicine, you will decoct the medicine, why do you have to be sneaky, you will definitely not have any good intentions.
Jiang Mi thought so, and tiptoed back to the house. She wants to tell her mother about this, and her mother must know what she has in mind about this.
"Mother!" Jiang Mi pushed the sleeping mother a few times.
Jiang Mi woke up in a daze, saw her daughter's enlarged face in front of her, and was a little unhappy to be woken up, and asked angrily: "It's not dawn this day, what are you arguing with me for?" ”
"Mother, I found a big secret." Jiang Mi was unhappy if she couldn't see her mother in normal times, but now this appearance is like a child waiting to be praised, "I saw that person, and got up early to decoct medicine." If I hadn't ......"
"You're saying it again!" Jiang Mi's mother's expression was no longer kind, and that unhappiness turned into shock, a little panic.
Jiang Mi was interrupted by her mother, and was stunned for a moment, thinking that she also felt that Aunt Huang had any careful thoughts, so she immediately posted it and echoed: "Yes, mother, don't you think it's strange, why do you have to come behind our back?" This is her house, how to decoct the medicine and come secretly, she must be trying to harm us. ”
Jiang Mi and her mother listened to her words, and the more she listened, her face became more and more pale, could the stupid woman know what she had done? Thinking like this, his subordinates gradually curled up, and their knuckles turned white.
"Mother, did you listen to me?" Jiang Mi pushed the stunned person, with a little dissatisfaction in her words: "Hmph, I'll go and talk to the old aunt later, I'll see how she explains." ”
"Shut up!" Jiang Mi's mother suddenly shouted.
Jiang Mi didn't expect her mother to yell at her like this, she was stunned for a moment, and after being stunned, she was even more incredulous, "Mother, how can you yell at me?" ”
She has always been dissatisfied with Aunt Huang's procrastination, and she has not heard back to their mother and daughter for a long time, otherwise she would be the grandmother of the Jiang family now. Do you still need to please people like this? Anyway, it's all to blame her, she's just jealous of her appearance, so she's secretly making an obstacle, and everything else is fake.
"Don't be anxious, let's take our time, how can such recklessness be possible?" Jiang Mi and her mother also knew that she was in a hurry, so she immediately turned her head to appease her daughter, otherwise this stunned girl might be exposed, first appease her first, and then think about how to deal with the stupid woman.
Jiang Mi's mother comforted Jiang Mi and asked her not to tell people outside, so she thought about what to do next.
"Mi'er, you also know that the man has always looked at us unpleasantly, and always thinks that we are poor relatives who come to fight the autumn breeze." Jiang Mi's mother sighed when she said this, and said to her with a little pain: "It's all to blame, otherwise how could our Mi'er suffer such a hard life." ”
Jiang Mi was also teary-eyed by her mother's words, and she hated Aunt Huang even more in her heart, her mother must have thought of what she was going to do, otherwise she wouldn't have spoken like this.
"She must be unfavorable to your old aunt, but you must be careful in the future, and you can't let her go to your old aunt's side." Jiang Mi's mother saw Jiang Mi's expression and felt that it was almost enough before she spoke.
Jiang Mi and her mother are afraid, afraid that what they have done will be discovered. If Aunt Huang ran to Aunt Huang regardless of it, would Aunt Huang help this daughter-in-law or help her, a distant relative?
It's hard to say, she is also afraid, if she makes a mistake, then this kind of free food and drink will come to an end. Where are their mother and daughter going to find relatives who are so talkative and soft-eared?
Lady Huang somehow, although she was good to Jiang Mi, she was cold and indifferent to her, and she didn't say much. Compared with Aunt Huang, her attitude is much better, so she will let Jiang Mi take the lead in everything, if there is anything wrong, she can stop earlier.
And with Jiang Mi's degree of love, she thinks that Aunt Huang will not blame too much.
Jiang Mi didn't expect her mother to be this kind of person, as long as she thought of Aunt Huang, she couldn't help but grind her teeth. Is this a red eye, she is loved by her old aunt? Thinking about killing the old aunt, the Huang family is in charge of her, isn't it? Then how could she give her this opportunity, she must guard against this person to the death, saying that she would not give her a chance to get close to her old aunt.
Aunt Huang didn't expect that she could follow Shen Yuanyao's instructions and secretly decoction of medicine to lead to so many things. She didn't care about thinking about anything, she didn't know why Shen Yuanyao asked her to secretly decoct the medicine, but this medicine was really useful after drinking.
In the past few days, her hands and feet have not been so cold, and even Huang Liangji said that her face has improved a lot in the past two days.
She drank the medicine, secretly hid the medicine jar, and burned the fire again, preparing to make breakfast for the group of "ancestors" to eat.
As soon as she lit the fire, someone came to the stove.
Jiang Mi and her mother looked at Aunt Huang apologetically, "It's been hard work for my sister-in-law these days, if you don't let my sister come." ”
As soon as she said this, Aunt Huang's face was not good-looking, she just couldn't hear what this person said about sisters and sisters, and those wives and concubines in that kind of high-ranking family were called like this. As long as she thinks about it, she feels disgusted, not to mention a good face, just a roll of the eyes.
Aunt Huang is looking at Aunt Huang's face, and she also saves to take in the two of them, so that Aunt Huang's attitude towards herself changes, but the result is useless, what should be hated is still hated.
When people moved in before, she didn't have any opinions, this would drive people out again, saying that it was not good-looking, so she didn't really want to drive out the two mothers and daughters who fought the autumn wind, if she really provoked her, how could she say that she was the daughter-in-law of the Huang family, what are these two people.
