Chapter 69: Discontinuation of Medicine
Zhiqiu listened to the second grandmother ask about the silver, and simply went back to the medicine hall to use the silver, Mengxi heard that there were only more than thirty taels of silver, and said disappointedly:
"That, why is it so much?"
"What is the second grandmother going to do, the slave will go to my brother's tomorrow to get some back"
"Let's do this first, you tell Zhichun a few of them, we will use the things in the courtyard now, if the steward does not send the monthly share, don't go to the account room to ask for it, and wait for the medicine hall to open the money, let's go out to buy it, this time be tight, that bit of silver, you first use it to pay the maids and servants on the door and in each courtyard, if it is not enough, I will pick out the brocade and other things in my dowry that can be given away, yours, I will be indispensable in the future, the only thing we have to do at present is to open the medicine hall first, something else, I'll talk about it later."
"Second grandmother ......, the slave knows what to do, and the slave tells Zhichun that they will not make trouble for the second grandmother in the future" Zhiqiu said in a choked voice.
Zhiqiu was very dissatisfied with the eldest lady in her heart, but thinking of the second grandmother being tossed by the eldest lady in front of Xiao An today, she knew that in the current form, she had to endure it if she couldn't bear it, who called her second grandmother a wicked mother-in-law, if they couldn't help but make trouble, it was the second grandmother who was not good-looking, and the second grandmother was also suffering, and the second master would not support them, although the old lady was spoiled, but the old lady had long ignored these trivial matters, and he couldn't always use these trivial things to annoy the old lady, so although he was sad, he also recognized the second grandmother's approach, endure the calm for a while, the second grandmother is such a good person, and there will be a day when he will come out.
That Zhixia and Zhidong heard Zhiqiu tell the story of the hall in detail, and they were resentful, but they also knew that it was their recklessness that made the second grandmother suffer today, and the second grandmother tried her best to protect them.
Since the expiration of the half-moon period, the second master is like a fish getting water, a bird out of the cage, and the people in the captivity have finally been free, excited, why there is such an idea, he himself is not clear, in short, he feels that in those fifteen days, he was forced by someone, his dignified seven-foot man, the future head of the Xiao Mansion, was forced by a little woman to stay in the upper room, living a life like a captivity, it was a great shame in his life, and what made him unbearable was that every time he faced her, there would be a feeling that he couldn't control, This made him moody, and he didn't want this feeling, he wanted to run away from it, so as soon as the fifteenth day was over, he fled from the main house like a wild horse.
In the past few days, the second master is either in Aunt Zhang's bamboo garden, or in Aunt Li's chrysanthemum garden, no, he has lived in the chrysanthemum garden for six consecutive days, since the second master came out of the room, he has never seen Hongyu, but he was angry and hugged a maid, and he was forced to accept the room, Hongyu is like a thorn, in his heart, when he sees her, he will remember the day he had to bow his head, think of the humiliation he suffered that day, and think of her light face, Hongyu has already moved into the Jade Garden, but he will never step into the Jade Garden in his life, Let her fend for herself in that yard.
Aunt Li has been beautiful in the past few days, and she is not even so punctual to ask the second grandmother for peace, or she will send someone to say that she will serve the second grandfather, and she can't come, and occasionally the second master is not there for her, and when she comes to ask for peace, she is also dressed up in a show, and she is even more proud of the second grandmother, Zhiqiu and Zhichun hate to tear that face apart, but seeing that the second master tacitly ignored all this, the second grandmother was also tossed by Aunt Li, she was a slave, and she had to watch dryly, so she had to grit her teeth, grit her teeth again, and endure it.
At this time, the second master was in the chrysanthemum garden, leaning on the soft collapse next to Aunt Li's bed, slightly closing her eyes, Aunt Li was sitting on the embroidery pier on the ground and gently rubbing his legs, looking at the white fungus ginkgo porridge that the big girl Bai Ju had just brought in, there was a trace of gloom in her eyes, what is the second grandmother doing? In the past few days, no matter where the second master is in that garden, she has sent a bowl in the morning and a bowl in the evening, rain or shine, and it is not the same every day, and there is a set of rhetoric, what is this porridge supplemented, what is the porridge made of..., whenever Aunt Li sees the second master drinking with relish, she grits her teeth with hatred, the second grandmother is hooking the second master in disguise, so that the second master remembers her craftsmanship, her porridge, and also remembers her, although the second master is now in the chrysanthemum garden every day, but it is also in the upper room for a long time, and the second master is used to drinking her porridge, and she is attentive, Is it okay to have your own?
Thinking of this, he raised his eyes and looked at the second master with his eyes closed, secretly brewed his feelings, and in a blink of an eye, he made a sad look, looked at the bowl of porridge sadly, and added a little strength to his hands.
Xiao Jun felt that Aunt Li's strength in rubbing her legs suddenly became heavier, and unconsciously opened his eyes, and saw Aunt Li in front of him looking like he was about to cry, followed her eyes, and also looked at the bowl of porridge, looked at it, and didn't see anything, stretched out his hand, and rubbed his fingers back and forth on Aunt Li's beautiful lips:
"Xiu'er, what's the matter, who upset you"
"Second master, it's nothing"
Aunt Li was taken aback by the second master's questioning, and hurriedly turned her face and lowered her head to hide the sadness on her face.
"Say, what's the matter?"
The more Aunt Li was like this, the more the second master felt that something was wrong, and reached out to lift Aunt Li's chin.
"Second master, there is really nothing, the concubine is just ashamed in her heart, she is not as ingenious as the second grandmother, she is a good cook, she can make porridge every day, regulate her body for the second master, and let the second master think about it every day"
When Xiao Jun heard this, Mengxi's calm and calm expression that had remained unchanged for the ages appeared in front of him, as if everything could be light, and a wave of anger rose in his heart, his face suddenly darkened, and the fingers pinching Aunt Li's chin unconsciously used his strength.
He doesn't know why, since she married in, every time he faces her calmly, he will be like a mad beast and angry, every round, he will bow down in front of her, that is a feeling he can't control, let him be frightened, he is known as the cold-faced Yan Jun, he has always been moody and angry, this is the result of his father cultivating him as the head of the family since he was a child, but every time he faces that face, that cultivation will disappear, he will become irritable, always, he is in control of everything, he doesn't want this feeling, he wants to destroy it completely.
At this time, the bowl of white fungus ginkgo porridge in front of him seemed to be Mengxi's calm face, he was nostalgic for her delicious taste, and he hated to smash it for novices, right! He wants to destroy those things that can control his emotions with his own hands, including her, he is the future head of the house, there must be no weaknesses, there must be things around him that he cannot control, his world, he is in charge.
Aunt Li saw the second master's expression, knowing that her words had worked, she fell to her knees with a thud:
"Second master, don't do this, it's the concubine's fault, the concubine doesn't dare anymore, the concubine will ask the second grandmother for advice tomorrow, personally cook for the second master, wash hands and make soup for the second master, and serve the second master well"
Saying that, hea, hey, he shed a few tears, it was really a pear blossom with spring rain.
"Bai Ju, take out that bowl of porridge and pour it, remember, the second grandmother will send the porridge in the future, you don't have to go back and forth, just pour it out, the master doesn't drink her porridge"
Yes, she is just a cook who can cook, he is just too obsessed with the taste of the porridge to stop wanting her, he never drinks the porridge she makes, does not go to the room to see her, to see that she can still influence him everywhere?
Bai Ju pushed the door in, answered, and took the porridge out.
When Aunt Li saw Bai Ju take the porridge out, a trace of pride flashed in her heart, and her face was still sad, but she hurriedly pushed away the hand stretched out by the second master and said:
"Second master, don't be like this, this porridge is a matter of great concern for the second grandmother, it is for the second master to make up for his body, if the second grandmother knows that the second master is in the concubine and does not drink this porridge, she will definitely think that the concubine is jealous and does not let the second master drink, and the concubine is afraid that there will be no place to bury her."
"She dares! After bothering about it, what heart did she have? Is there still a cook in Xiao Mansion who can make porridge? ”
Looking at Aunt Li in front of him, he Xiao Jun has never lacked women, look, as long as he hooks his hands, there will be many women who are happy to see him climb into his bed and rejoice under him, isn't Aunt Li in front of her, she is so obedient to him, respects him, fears him, loves him, and always treats him as a god. Thinking like this, he took Aunt Li in his arms, turned around and pressed on the soft collapse, he wanted to vent his anger against her on the supple woman in front of him, she was just a woman who did not abide by women's morals and had a heart like a femme fatale, he was not rare!
"Second master, second master, you ...... lighter"
