Chapter 5: The Old Man

Wang said goodbye, Shi took Yuan Chun back to the main room, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who talked back and forth for a while arrived. Although Shi has not been in charge of things in the past few years, after all, he has been the wife of the house for many years, and it is easy to deal with things, just because he took Yuan Chun, he slowed down a little and wanted to teach her to see clearly.

Yuan Chun will be ten years old after the New Year, and in two years, Zhang Luo will talk about his relatives, so this housekeeping thing also needs to be learned as soon as possible, and now she knows it in her own heart, so she remembers to be extra attentive.

After the housekeepers finished talking, Shi ordered to take a part of the booklet from previous years for comparison, Yuan Chun looked through it carefully, and if he didn't understand, he asked Shi for advice.

Shi said: "This housekeeper's thing, difficult to say, easy to say, you just started now, there must be a lot of doubts, just be familiar with it, but it is just following the old practice of previous years, now it is the end of the year, because you have to prepare for the festival, there are more things to buy, and you have to send an extra month to the next person, you only look at two more days, and you will understand." ”

Yuan Chunju got up and listened.

At one moment, Mama Lai, who was beside Shi, came in from outside and stood behind Shi, Shishi asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Mama Lai glanced at Yuan Chun and said, "It's nothing." A few little girls are just fighting. ”

Yuan Chun hurriedly stood up and said, "Madam, I still have things in my house that have not been put together, now I will go back and clean up first, so that I can move over to accompany my wife as soon as possible." ”

Shi Shi smiled: "Go, don't be tired, accompany your mother to eat over there at noon, you don't have to come over." ”

Yuan Chun agreed to go.

Mama Lai stood in front and said back: "The girl on the grandmother's side went back and forth, saying that the eldest grandmother was not in good health. ”

Shi frowned and said, "What's wrong with it?" Didn't you just ask a doctor to see it a few days ago? ”

Mama Lai whispered: "Say it's uncle...... The uncle forced the red sleeves beside the grandmother, and the grandmother vomited blood angrily......"

"This bastard brute!" Shi said angrily: "There are four dowry girls around Zhang's side, two of them were given to him, and one was forced to death for him, and now there is only one red sleeve by Zhang's side, and he still doesn't give up!" ”

Because he commanded outward, "Tell the uncle to come to me immediately!" ”

and said to Mama Lai: "The boss didn't know when he lost his mind, refused to study, only worked these things, blindly absurd nonsense, when his father was alive, I don't know how many times I fought for this, but I can't change it." I thought it would be good to marry a daughter-in-law, but who knew it was still like this! Although the Zhang family is lower, it is a rare beauty, and he is just as bad! Originally, when he lived here, the girl in his own house was just that, and even my side dared to mess around, but fortunately, his father was in charge, so it was not too out of line, and now he is alone, and he is really more and more lawless! ”

The girl Pearl came in and replied: "Madam, the little servants replied that the uncle was drunk and couldn't wake up." ”

Shi Shi said angrily: "Let's go, I'll go and see this beast in person!" ”

Mama Lai hurriedly asked someone to set up a car, served Shi Shi in a big coat, went to Jia He, entered the door, and the little girls she met all the way shrank her shoulders and sleeved her hands. When I was about to arrive at the door of the main house, the steward greeted me in a panic: "Why did my wife come over?" Uncle was about to go over to greet you. ”

Shi Shi hated: "If he doesn't come to ask for peace, I will live for two more days!" Where's that brute? ”

The housekeeper went indoors and said, "Uncle is in the house." ”

Shi went to the house, and Jah was being pressed by several little men to put on his boots and change clothes, while muttering, "What is the wife still telling me to do!" She is biased, she only has the second child in her eyes, where do you treat me as a son! I think her girl has been her girl for so many years, she ignored me, but gave a good girl to the second child! ”

Shi Shi listened, angry words can't be said, all the little guys saw Shi Shi, they all hurriedly knelt down, that Jia He had no one to support, so he had to crook on the ground, just about to open his mouth to scold, looked up and saw Shi Shi's face was pale, his hands trembled and pointed at him, only the frightened three souls went for two and a half minutes, and the wine also woke up for most of the time, and snorted: "Mrs., why is Mrs. here." ”

The Shi clan was so angry that his whole body trembled, and he called out to the housekeeper for a while: "Pull this beast outside and kneel, pour a bucket of cold water to sober him up, and come back to talk to me again." ”

The butler replied, "Yes, yes." "Beckoning the little servant to help Jah to kneel under the steps outside the door, because of the time to the moon, the cold wind is biting, Jah was wearing less, as soon as he went out, he sneezed several times in succession, if it is really as Shi said, and then pour him a head of cold water, I am afraid that half of it will be removed, the housekeeper can't, so he has to kneel with Jahe, the master and servant are only frozen and rubbing their hands.

Shi Shi developed Jahe, so he ordered a girl in the house to say, "Take me to see your grandmother." ”

When he saw Zhang's in the room, Jia's was even more surprised, the originally bright and bright Zhang's description was withered, thin and only skin and bones, seeing that he was about to die, and when he saw Shi, he couldn't even get up to greet him. There weren't many people in the room, only a girl kneeling on the side of the bed, kowtowing to Shi.

It turned out that Shi was disgusted with Jia He's inadequacy, and he was angry that Zhang couldn't control him, so he ordered him and his wife not to go every day, just go every few days, and because Zhang was sick last month, Shi directly exempted her from asking for peace, and he hadn't seen her for more than a month.

Shi sat down beside Zhang's and wept: "Good boy, how did you get to this step, why didn't you tell me earlier!" ”

That Zhang just shook her head, she felt disheartened by now, and even if she told Shi earlier, it was not much use. Now she knows that her life will not last long, and she still has something to worry about, so she bent down on the kang and said: "Madam, please forgive my daughter-in-law for not being able to see the courtesy, now my body is useless, I just ask my wife to promise me two things for the sake of me being honest over the years." ”

Shi Shi hurriedly helped her lie down and said, "Good boy, you are still young, don't say such depressing words, when I ask someone to get the name post, I will ask the imperial doctor to come, and I will definitely be able to give you a good look." If you have anything you want, just tell me, and if you are angry, I will call the boss and ask him to kowtow to you to make amends. ”

Zhang sobbed: "I have received my wife's wishes, and my own body, I know, is not possible." Now there are only two things that can not be assured, one is Brother Lian, he is still young, although he has some bad habits, he can be changed after all, I beg my wife to have mercy, take him over there, ask the second uncle to help him upbring, don't let him grow up, and be the same ......as his old man."

Zhang's physical strength was extremely weak, so he had to stop and rest after saying a few words, and when he was better, he pointed to the girl who knelt below and said: "This red sleeve is a girl who grew up with me since childhood...... Now she is the only one left, and if I go, I beg my wife to be kind and let her go home!" ”

Before Shi Shi could speak, the girl suddenly stood up and said: "Grandma don't care about me, so that grandma can know that if this happened, I have no face to see people for a long time, I originally planned to die headlong, but I pity that grandma doesn't even have a person to serve around, if grandma really goes, I will follow grandma and go to the underworld to serve grandma!" ”
