Chapter 102: Choice (Part 1)
Under the west wall of the West Mansion, along the edge of the house, Mama Qu squatted in front of the medicine stove and kept fanning the wind, watching the soup in the medicine jar boiling, but she couldn't stop sighing and frowning.
Earlier, she begged the old lady for her grace, and it was indeed not a lie, her eldest man was indeed very sick, but she did not have much money on hand, and she was afraid that she would not be able to catch the medicine in a few days.
Over the years, she has been so much Weibo's monthly money, Da Lang has been a banker in Zhuangzi, and he has no savings, and he spent a lot of savings to marry Fangxi Mansion some time ago, and now where is there any other money left.
Although it is said that on weekdays, everyone in the house looks at her face in front of the old lady, and they all think that she has gained many benefits, in fact, only she understands best, the old lady loves vanity and face, but she is the most picky, and she never gives rewards on weekdays, even if there are any rewards, they only give some old clothes and worthless jewelry, and they can't exchange money for silver.
And now that she has been sent back like this, she can't even go into the house to serve, there is really no way at all, so she can only worry here at a loss.
There was a heavy wheezing sound from her eldest man in the room, I am afraid that it will be uncomfortable again, how can this be good, is it difficult to look at it like this?
"Is Mama Qu there? Someone in the house wants to see you. The lady of the Lu family next door greeted loudly.
Mama Qu put down the fan, put the medicine jar on the stove, and then wiped her hands on her skirt and responded: "It's here, it's here." ”
I was afraid that someone from Songshou Temple was sending someone to ask about something, so she got up dejectedly and waited for someone to come in.
But when she saw the person coming, she was taken aback, it was not from the West Mansion, but Han Mama from the East Mansion.
Mama Han came in with a smile, still carrying a food box in her hand: "I asked for a long time before I found out that my sister-in-law lives here." ”
Mama Qu was a little at a loss, so she hurriedly stepped forward and invited her to sit down, and then turned back to thank Mrs. Lu, who sent Mama Han in: "I'm tired." ”
Mrs. Lu agreed with a smile, and then turned around and went out one step at a time.
Watching Lu Niangzi go, Mama Qu's heart sank even more, this place lives under the house are all the housekeepers and grandmothers who are waiting in the house, if they really teach them to know that the housekeepers in the East Mansion will come to see them, I am afraid that tomorrow the West Mansion will also know, how good is this!
Mama Han looked at her face changed slightly, and her smile deepened, but she handed over the food box in her hand: "I also heard that the eldest man in my sister-in-law's family is sick, so I brought some medicinal herbs over, you can see if you can use it." ”
Mama Qu didn't answer, but smiled slightly wryly: "What is Mama Han doing, we don't have any dealings on weekdays, I'm afraid I can't accept such valuable objects." ”
Mama Han seemed to have expected it a long time ago, she put the food box on the table, found a place to sit down, and said to Mama Qu with a smile: "The old sister-in-law is too rejecting thousands of miles away, and I won't go around in circles, to tell the truth, the current situation of the old sister-in-law is not very good." ”
"The old lady has now left Mama Deng on the handyman to serve by her side, and the old sister-in-law's errand is now being done, saying that it is for you to take care of Dalang, but I don't know when I can go back to serve, can I go back...... I don't know."
"What's more, Da Lang is afraid that he is very sick, this is the time to use money, is it possible for the old sister-in-law to watch Da Lang suffer?" Mama Han listened to the rapid gasps in the room, and looked at Mama Qu's eyes full of pity.
Mama Qu had mixed feelings in her heart, and it took a long time before she said: "If the eldest lady has anything to say, go and ask the old lady, I'm afraid it's ......."
Mama Han smiled with her eyebrows stretched: "The old sister-in-law is the old lady who has been serving for many years, the eldest lady has always been respectful, where can there be any instructions, but the old sister-in-law also has to think about herself, this family depends on you, but you ...... now"
"Besides, they all watched me come here, and when this word reached the ears of the old lady, I am afraid that I will not be able to tolerate you, old sister-in-law, if you can figure it out, the eldest lady is the most sympathetic to us people, and she must be willing to help a group of old sisters-in-law."
She watched Mama Qu's face fade into pale little by little, lowered her head without saying a word, the smile on her face became relaxed, reached out and poured herself a bowl of water, and ate slowly.
She is not in a hurry, Mama Qu has to tell her after all.
"An Ning Bo Shizi?" Gu Mingzhu's face was indescribably strange, if it weren't for Mama Qu's entanglement in reminiscing about the past, she would almost not believe her ears.
Are Old Madam Gu and Luo Shi crazy, An Ning Bo Shizi is Luo's cousin, and they actually want to promise themselves to him! Is there any rule and rule in this? Does Gu Qing know about this?
Seeing Gu Mingzhu's face turn cold little by little, Mama Han hurriedly whispered: "Mama Qu said, the general doesn't know, the old lady is afraid that the general will refuse, so she thought about talking to the lady and then going to talk to the general." ”
Gu Mingzhu sneered: "They have a good idea!" ”
She slowly clenched the fan in her hand, lowered her eyes, and her eyes were full of bone-chilling coldness and cruelty, and Ah Bi and Xiao Kui on the side shrank their necks in fear.
Mama Han was also angry and anxious: "How can the old lady ...... That's An Ningbo's son, he is the cousin of his wife, how can he not be related to them, not to mention that there is such a thing in the uncle's mansion, wouldn't the lady marry into the fire pit! How can this be! ”
She was so anxious that she turned around, Mrs. Gu and Luo had such a heart, I was afraid that she would soon put down this marriage, but what should be done now, she thought about it and went only to ask the general, after all, the lady is the eldest daughter of the general, how could the general not let the lady marry into the Anning Mansion!
But as soon as she spoke, Xiao Kui on the side replied in frustration: "There is news from Xifu, saying that the general will stay in the Gyeonggi camp for the next few days, and I am afraid that he will not be able to come back until the Duanyang Festival." ”
mentioned Gu Qing, Gu Mingzhu's tone did not have a trace of warmth: "Even in the mansion, there is no way, the old lady has never made it clear which mansion it is, I can't say anything even if I go to say it, after all, Mama Qu's words are only one-sided words, and I can't do it accurately." ”
With Gu Qing's filial piety to Old Madam Gu, I am afraid that I will not believe Mama Qu's words, and next time, I am afraid that the Luo family will be more wary of Gu Mingzhu.
Mama Han was so anxious that she was sweating profusely: "Then what can I do, is it difficult for the old lady and the lady to arrange it like this?" ”
Gu Mingzhu raised his eyes, his eyes were like ice and snow: "In the past two days, people have been staring at Xifu well, and if there is any movement, they will talk back immediately." ”
Gu Qing couldn't make sense there, and they couldn't get the words here, I was afraid that they wouldn't stop there, and they would definitely have other plans!
