Chapter 228 Gossip
Wisteria looked at Li Xiaomi, who was stunned, and hurriedly got up and poured a cup of tea and served it to Li Xiaomi, Li Xiaoqi took the cup and drank two sips, relieved his breath, and smiled while signaling Wisteria to continue, Wisteria sat back on the edge of the bed sideways, and then said: "I can't go over, so I sent a few red oranges to look at it, Yan Er's grandmother saw that her daughter was beaten, where could she bear it, and she also pounced on it and beat it, Ming Jing saw that her sister was pressed to the ground, and pounced over to pull her sister, and the two sisters and brothers were beaten by the mother and their noses and eyes were swollen, and their faces and necks were scratched with blood marks, Wu Da/Grandma was anxious and angry, didn't come up in one breath, and fell down in the yard on the spot, a few red oranges carried Wu Da/Grandma into the house, and hurried back to report the news, Mama Zhang was afraid of delay, asked for a car, and went to ask Dr. Qian in person, when I and Mama Lu rushed over, Mingwan and Mingjing were distributed, and they were guarding Wu Da/Grandma crying breathlessly, Yan Er's grandmother was still jumping in the yard and scolding Mingwan's family, Mama Lu couldn't look down, and said a few words, Yueting pounced and was about to beat Mama Lu, saying that Mama Lu was a cheap slave, dared to stretch his waist with his master. Wisteria said while carefully looking at Li Xiaoyi's face, Li Xiaoqi was extremely sullen when he heard it, put the cup in his hand on the table heavily, looked at Wisteria and asked, "What about the Fan family?" There are four or five families living in that courtyard, and there is also Mrs. Fan, so no one goes up to persuade them? All dead? β
Wisteria opened his mouth, wanted to say something and swallowed it back, Li Xiaoqi impatiently reprimanded: "Don't talk to me!" β
"Yes!" Wisteria hurriedly stood up and bent his knees to agree, and quickly sat back on the edge of the bed, and said with a little swirling tongue: "The girl forgives the sin, the girl has the right to listen, Wisteria doesn't dare to tell the right and wrongβ’β’β’β’β’β’" Seeing a hint of irritability flashing in Li Xiaoyi's eyes, Wisteria hurriedly turned to the topic: "When this gossip came, Mama Zhang and Mama Lu also taught everyone about this once, speaking of which, Wu Da/Grandma and Mingwan also have a problem, the girl gave them house furniture, which is a good thing, but it shouldn't be too public, it makes people red, I heard that Wu Da \/ When my grandmother fell ill, many people in the courtyard said she deserved it. Wisteria said, while carefully looking at Li Xiaoyi, Li Xiaoqi leaned back slightly, his expression was indifferent, looked at Wisteria and then asked, "Where is Mrs. Fan?" Do you deserve it? She wasn't there when the fight was there? β
"I haven't heard of it, she was there during the fight, and Hongju said that she was in a hurry, so she put her hands in a circle, and shouted 'Stop fighting!' Stop it! But no one paid attention to her, and then Grandma Wanliu pulled her under the verandah, saying that she was far away, and if she hurt her, it would be a big deal. Wisteria said cautiously, Li Xiaoqi sighed lightly, motioned to Wisteria to continue, Wisteria continued what she had just said: "Mama Lu didn't pay attention to the Moon Pavilion, only looked at Mrs. Fan, Mrs. Fan stepped forward to open the Moon Pavilion, and said to Mama Lu, 'Mama is an old and insightful old woman, if you say a few words about the Moon Pavilion, it is not too much, but Aunt Yan is an elderly elder, and Mama has passed!" Wisteria learned from Mrs. Fan's tone and said, Li Xiaoqi raised her eyebrows high, looking at Wisteria in disbelief, Wisteria moved nervously, and was about to explain, Li Xiaoqi raised her hand to stop her: "I can trust you, and you don't dare to tell me the truth, you continue." β
Wisteria's heart relaxed, and he hurriedly continued: "I heard Mingwan crying in the house, and quickly pulled Mama Lu into the house, Mama Lu pinched Wu Da/Grandma's people desperately, and pinched the people where there was bruised, Wu Da/Grandma only breathed out and woke up, and then Dr. Qian came, saying that Wu Da/Grandma was shocked and anxious and angry, this illness was much worse than before, let me continue to eat ginseng, it is best to eat one or two times of ginseng soup, the next day is the day of Mingwan's marriage, Mama Zhang and Mama Lu are afraid of another accident, so they take red oranges and joy, Cherry, the three of them kept watch all night, and the next morning, Mingwan got into the sedan chair with a blue nose and swollen eyes, alas! Wisteria sighed with pity and emotion: "The girl didn't see it, Mingwan married the miserable, a courtyard of people, except for Mrs. Fan came out to send off, nothing else, even the door was not opened, Wu Da/Grandma laughed desperately, it was better to cry than to laugh, Mingwan's younger brother Mingjing held his sister's clothes, crying and not letting go, Jiang Shuncai drummed and played noisy, and arrived at the gate of the courtyard lively, how dare Mama Zhang let Mingwan get on the sedan chair like that?" Secretly called Jiang Shuncai to come in, and told him what happened yesterday, Mama Zhang said, Jiang Shuncai was full of bruises, and he picked up Mingwan back, and it didn't take long for Zhang Gouzi to bring a few people to the new house, and even moved the house clean. β
Li Xiaoqi breathed a sigh of relief gently, this Jiang Shuncai is not bad, Wisteria sighed a few times: "A lively family affair, it's just like β’β’β’β’β’β’that, alas, I heard that it is a random ceremony, and the wedding wine is dispersed before the glass is raised, and women are like this for a lifetime!" Girl, look! Alas! Jiang Shuncai came over to our side that night, and he had to kowtow to Mama Zhang and Mama Lu, but Mama Zhang and Mama Lu stopped him desperately, saying that he wanted to thank him, and he also had to thank the girl, how dare we be subordinates? Besides, if it weren't for the girl's instructions, we wouldn't have dared to do much. Later, I heard that Jiang Shuncai pooled money to buy a ginseng for Wu Da/Grandma, and Wu Da/Grandma was a little better, but still can't get out of bed. Wisteria looked at Li Xiaoyi, thought about it, and added in a low voice: "After Wu Da/Grandma's family moved away, Yueting occupied Wu Da/Grandma's house, and when the monthly money was distributed every other month, Mrs. Fan reformed the monthly money of Mrs. Wu Da/Grandma and Ming Jing, and Mingwan asked Mrs. Fan in the past, saying that she lived in the yard and said that she would have it if she moved away, and she would naturally have it if she moved away." Li Xiaoqi raised her eyebrows when she listened, and she was speechless for a while, she hadn't been at home for a few months, and she had so many things! Li Xiaoqi breathed this breath for a long time before he let out a long breath and ordered, "Let someone pick up Mingwan tomorrow night." Wisteria hurriedly stood up, bent his knees with a smile on his face, Li Xiaoqi lay down and was stunned for a while, sat up again, ordered Wisteria to light the lamp and candle, picked a book and read it for more than half an hour, before lying down and falling asleep.
Early the next morning, Li Xiaoqi woke up, it was already bright outside, and Danyue lifted the curtain and smiled: "The girl must have slept peacefully this night!" β
"Well, what time is it?" Li Xiaoqi stretched his waist and asked,
"It's a moment." Danyue answered while hanging the curtain, Qingcheng took Liuyun, Tingzhu brought light salt water, gargled and waited for Li Xiaoqi to rinse his mouth, Li Xiaoqi stood up and asked, "Zhang Gouzi, have they arrived?" β
"It's been half an hour, waiting outside, Sister Wisteria said that the girl is tired, and no one can disturb the girl." Qingcheng replied in a crisp and crisp voice, Li Xiaoqi didn't delay much, and hurriedly turned into the back clean room to take a simple bath and change clothes, and while eating breakfast, he ordered: "Go and invite Miss Luoyan to come over." Liuyun agreed to go out, and after a while, Li Xiaoqi ate, turned to the flower hall outside, and called Zhang Gouzi and others in.
Zhang Gouzi nodded, Fifth Brother Zhao, Zhao Liushun, Luo Dajiang, and Luo Erqing followed closely, several people came in and kowtowed to say goodbye, got up and sat down, Zhang Gouzi looked at Li Xiaoqi carefully and said, "Fifth Master has really lost a lot of weight!" β
"Huh? That's what you're here for? Li Xiaoqi asked with a smile, Zhang Gouzi and the others also laughed, Zhao Liushun turned his head and signaled to Luo Dajiang, Luo Dajiang hurriedly lifted the burden in his arms and handed it to Danyue who was standing next to him: "Fifth master, here is newly woven silk, each cut three feet, please take a look." Li Xiaoqi hurriedly took the burden handed over by Danyue, shook off the lining fabric and looked at it piece by piece for a while, then wrapped it up again and handed it to Tingzhu and instructed: "Take it in and show it to Luoyan." Hearing that Zhu took the burden and sent it in, Li Xiaoqi turned his head to look at a few people and said with a smile: "I look very good, how much have you woven in total?" Well? What about Chen Yuanda? β
"Back to the fifth master, Uncle Chen went out the day before yesterday to see the cocoons, saying that he came back after watching the silk." Zhang Gouzi replied with a smile: "I have woven a lot, but there are not many good ones, there are only two or three horses of each, the fifth master knows, we are all new weavers, and we can't see the things we weave at the beginning, so it will only start to come out in this half a month." β
"The fifth master has instructed, as long as it is the best, it is not good to be a little inferior, if it is not like this, it will be able to produce a piece of silk last month." Luo Da hurriedly added, Li Xiaoqi nodded and smiled: "You are right, our weaving workshop, only produce the best things, a little inferior, it is better to destroy it with money, than to go out of the door of our weaving workshop, it is only a few months, you can weave such silk, you bother." Luo Da breathed a sigh of relief, Luo Er also smiled, Li Xiaoqi asked carefully for half an hour, before nodding with satisfaction, listening to Zhu had already come back with the burden, seeing Li Xiaoqi asking for good words, he picked up the cup and drank a few sips of tea, and hurriedly looked for words and stepped forward to report: "Girl, Miss Luoyan said that she looked at the materials in this bag very good, more dense and clean than those in Caiyunfang, but the color is more pure." β
"Back to the fifth master, I just started the trial work, and I didn't dare to weave the colors, so I picked up a lot of plain colors and knitted some, and there were jacquard or something, and I haven't started teaching yet." Luo Da hurriedly stood up and explained, Li Xiaoqi smiled and raised his hand to press down, motioning for him to sit down: "I know, the rice has to be eaten one bite at a time, things have to be done one by one, you do it right, you have to go step by step, in the past few months, everyone has done a good job, from today onwards, the weaving workshop has to move." Li Xiaoqi paused, Zhang Gouzi and the others hurriedly straightened up, waiting to listen to Li Xiaoyi's instructions, Luo Da and Luo Er glanced at each other suspiciously, and also hurriedly turned their heads to look at Li Xiaoyi, Li Xiaoqi smiled and continued: "From today on, the dog came out of the weaving workshop, and the fifth brother first started from this Kaiping Mansion to find a suitable shop, our silk village has to be prepared, and the weaving workshop is also divided into labor, I mean, this weaving workshop is the first director of Chen, what do you two see?" Li Xiaoqi looked at Luo Da and Luo Er and asked, the two of them were stunned when they listened, and when they saw Li Xiaoqi asking, they nodded their heads again and again.
