Chapter 50: Gift-giving

Zhiqiu asked Zhichun to stare at the door of the second grandmother's bedroom, she personally went to ask the second master to ask for leave for the second grandmother, and after the order, she was about to leave.

was dragged by Zhichun. Zhichun was about to open his mouth to dissuade her, but Zhiqiu shook his head at her, turned his head to Zhixia and said:

"Go to the small kitchen to cook some porridge for the second grandmother and prepare, and the second grandmother will wake up and eat it after a while"

When Zhiqiu came to the hall, the dining table had already been placed, the second master was sitting there, a few maids were busy setting up the meal, and the red beads and red jade were waiting on the side, and the two saw Zhiqiu coming alone, and their faces were green in shock, this second grandmother, why is she still angry with the second master at this time? peeked at the second master, so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe.

"The slave maid Zhiqiu asks the second master for peace"

Zhiqiu stepped forward and knelt on the ground.

"Get Up"

"The slave and maid asked the second grandmother for the guilt, the second master passed the meal, the slave and the maid should have woken up the second grandmother to come and serve, but the slave and the maid saw that the second grandmother had just slept, and the body was not good, and she fainted yesterday, and thought that the second grandmother had just vomited, so she took it upon herself not to wake up the second grandmother, and the slave and maid dared to ask for leave for the second grandmother, and when the second grandmother was better at night, she came to serve and begged the second grandmother to be gracious."

A few maids held their breath and looked at the second master nervously, for fear that he would have another seizure, and the second master would be angry these days. This second grandmother is really not worried, although her health is not good, but anyone can see that the second master doesn't like her, no matter how difficult it is, she has to hold on, it's only been a few days, so she won't come to serve? Don't wait for the second master to attack!

After a long time, I heard the second master say:

"Just let her rest, you go down"

The people in the room listened to the words of the second master, and they all breathed a sigh of relief, Zhiqiu got up and returned to the inner room after thanking him, only to happen that he was already scared into a cold sweat, I thought that the second master would have a seizure, I don't know how the second master would let her go so easily, and said in his heart, it is really bitter for the second grandmother, such a moody master.

Mengxi opened his eyes after waking up, and saw Zhiqiu sitting on the edge of the bed, holding the pattern, while comparing the line, Zhiqiu looked up and saw that the second grandmother was awake, looking at her, and hurriedly stopped what she was doing:

"Grandma woke up, hungry, right?"

"What time is it?"

"It's too late"

Mengxi reacted for a long time, this time is not 1 o'clock to 3 o'clock in the modern afternoon, and she finally has some idea of this ancient time now.

"Has the second master had lunch?"

"After using it, the slave maid saw that the second grandmother slept soundly, so she went back to the second grandmother, but she didn't wake up the second grandmother, the second grandmother is awake now, I think she is hungry, so let's get up and eat first."

As he spoke, he greeted Zhixia and served the second grandmother to dress.

"It's not time, just make lunch simple, and pass it to the house to use."

Zhiqiu Zhichun was waiting for the second grandmother to eat, and the eldest aunt sent the maid Hong'er back to Bing, and the things for the uncle were all ready, and asked when they would be delivered.

Mengxi just wanted to call Hong'er to pass the word, let the eldest aunt send it over directly, thought about it, and felt that it was better to meet the eldest grandmother in person, although she asked to meet every day, but there were many people, and the two rarely had a conversation, she liked the calmness of this eldest aunt very much, she couldn't learn, she always wanted to fight for the length of everything, Mengxi now knows too little about this Xiao Mansion, and urgently needs to find someone to understand the situation of Xiao Mansion, of course, she can't find the second master and those aunts, just take the opportunity to contact the eldest grandmother.

Thinking of this, he instructed Hong'er:

"Let's bring something to the upper room."

"Yes, the slave maid is going back to the eldest aunt, usually the eldest aunt will send it, does the second grandmother want the eldest aunt to accompany you this time?"

"No need, just Zhiqiu will accompany me"

"Yes, slave and maid retire"

After Hong'er went down, Mengxi turned her head and told Zhidong to pass the word and prepare the car, ready to go to the eldest grandmother.

After eating, he ordered people to withdraw, and Mengxi called Zhichun, Zhixia, Zhiqiu, and Zhidong to the house and said:

"Zhixia, Zhidong, you will stay in the house in the afternoon, pack up my things, and move to the East Chamber, we will live in the East Chamber, the four of you will remember for me in the future, this East Wing is my own courtyard, except for the four of you, no one is allowed to enter casually, and they are asked to wait in the upper room."

"Second grandma..."When Zhiqiu heard this, he came over to persuade the second grandmother, but was stopped by the second grandmother with her eyes.

"I haven't spent money before, so I really don't have any concept of this, I don't know what I can do with 12 months of silver this month."

Zhichun heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward and said:

"The second grandmother was born in a big family, there is never a shortage, and you don't have to worry about it, of course I don't know this, this two pieces of silver can be exchanged for 1,000 big Qi coins, the average cropper, if there is no disease or disaster, there are 5 or 6 taels of silver is enough for a year, and the second grandmother has a lot of 12 taels of silver a month, enough for the croppers to use for two and a half years."

"Oh," Mengxi nodded, and then added:

"I have begged the old lady in the morning, and the day after tomorrow I will go out of the house to go to the market and see ......"

"Really, Second Grandma! That's great! That's great! The second grandmother will take us with us, the slave begged the second grandmother..."

Before Mengxi finished speaking, the four maids jumped up happily.

"Hmmm......"

Mengxi looked at the four maids contemplatively, and the four of them forgot about the second grandmother with a look of anticipation, and they couldn't wait to come forward and call their mother twice.

"Look at your performance, if you behave well, I'll take you there"

As soon as the four maids heard this, they knew that the second grandmother had agreed, and the four pairs of eyes looked at the second grandmother with bright eyes, Mengxi felt that she was like Tang monk meat at this moment, and the four maids were likely to pounce on her and eat her in the next moment, coughed, and then said:

"Zhichun will go to the account room to pay 50 taels of silver in a while, and he will say that the old lady will allow it, and the second grandmother will use it when the sun rises."

Zhichun nodded in response.

"Zhiqiu, tomorrow you want to find a way to inform your brother and let them prepare for it, just say that you will go back to see them the afternoon after tomorrow"

"Second grandmother, Zhiqiu can't forget the great kindness of the second grandmother in this life..."

Zhiqiu's words of the second grandmother, plopped down to the ground, bang, bang, bang, kowtow three heads and choked.

Before Zhiqiu finished speaking, he was helped up by Mengxi:

"Get up, your face is crying, people who don't know still think that I will wait for you again with the second grandmother, clean up and accompany me to the eldest grandmother's"

……

Mengxi took Zhiqiu's hand through the small hanging flower door, and saw that the eldest grandmother Zhang had led the maid out to greet her, and Zhang stepped forward a few steps forward and grabbed Mengxi's hand:

"This poisonous day, your body is not good, why did you come in person, just send a girl to pass a word if you have something" said as he took Mengxi's hand and walked inside.

"No, thinking that my sister-in-law will leave tomorrow, I'm afraid it's going to be the New Year when I see you again, I can't bear it, I want to come and have a look"

Mengxi said to Zhang with a smile.
