Dao Feng and Jian Qiu didn't reply to the Cao family directly, because they were worried that the girls would hear it.

Therefore, Cao said to the girls: "Don't come here. Let's go back! When I come back from Dongfu, I will have my own way of handling this place. "Persuaded for a while, scolded for a while, and finally sent away Sister Zhuang Xuan.

Yu Qi, Zhuang Yu, Zhuang Ying and others also followed Zhuang Qi to her house.

Subsequently, the Cao family went to Dongfu with Daofeng and Jianqiu, and Aunt Nazha fainted in Lizhuyuan, and she seemed to forget and stopped asking.

to Dongfu.

At this moment, there are a few people scattered in the house of the little aunt in Dongfu, and it should be full of people as Cao Shi thought. It's nothing more than the big girl Zhuang Hu and Aunt Xi and the girls.

When the Cao family arrived, a girl went in first to report that Zhuang Hu heard about it and came out first. Seeing Cao's family, Zhuang Hu took half a salute, came up to hold her, and whispered, "Madam, what's inside!" ”

Cao Shi didn't leave, held Zhuang Hu's hand, and asked, "What's going on?" ”

Zhuang Hu sighed: "Mrs. will know when you go in and see." ”

Cao still refused to move, and said again: "The wives are here?" ”

Zhuang Hu shook his head.

When the two of them entered the door, they heard the sound of crying, and then went inside to the bedroom. In front of the bed, there is one person sitting and several people standing. It was Aunt Xi who was sitting, and it was Lingli and other girls who were standing.

The people who cried were the girls who were waiting in front of the little aunt.

When they got closer, the girls knew that the wives had arrived, so they all stood on both sides to make way for them to come out. Aunt Xi pinched her handkerchief and wiped her eyes, and also got up and saluted Cao's family.

Cao shook his hand, and wanted to say: There is no need to give way.

Each stood and looked back. No one spoke.

Cao's "hey" sighed heavily. In an instant, the crying stopped, and they wiped their tears one by one.

Cao Shi approached the bed, looked down with straight eyes, and saw that the little aunt had a pink face, lying flat on the bed, with a sick face, and the blood under the skin and face was purple, faintly imprinted between the skin and flesh. The hair that was put down was meticulous and neat. On the edge of the bed, a little girl pinched a hand towel and wiped her with tears from the corners of her eyes.

The little aunt looked at Cao in a daze.

Cao Shi looked at her dumbfounded, and said, "Has the doctor come to see it?" ”

Clever and thoughtful, he replied, "I've come and see, and I've prescribed some medicine." Boil it a few times, but ...... My aunt doesn't eat it. ”

Cao Shi said: "That's because you didn't take good care of it, and sincerely want your master to be like this." If the masters don't stare at you, you will be sloppy and cover up, either cold or hot. How do I take it? Go boil the medicine again. ”

Lingli didn't reply, handed her eyes to the two girls, and went out.

The girls went out, and the room suddenly became empty. Seeing such a scene, Cao's heart suddenly became sad: it is said that the big family is a big house, and the mother is expensive by her son, so she gave birth to a noble son, and she fell into such a bleak and cold life, life in the world, sure enough, everything is unreliable, and luck is unreliable.

Thinking of this, Cao's eyes moistened and overflowed with tears.

When Zhuang Hu saw her wiping tears, he came to remind: "Mrs! ”

This reminder is to ask the Cao family to pay attention to identity. Yes, she is the wife of the main family, the main axis of the Zhuang government, and who is she? It's just an aunt, what's more, a half-dead person like this?

Cao quickly wiped away his tears, exhaled a breath, and put on another look.

Dao Feng and Jian Qiu brought a chair, and Zhuang Hu helped her sit down.

After Cao sat down, he said to his little aunt: "You can take care of it with peace of mind, look at your eyes, whether they are red or black, how long will they last?" In other words, being seriously ill does not bring wealth, how many years have you been strong, what will you do with yourself? Anyway, you have a child to rely on, don't think about yourself, you have to think about him, you can take all the medicine you can take, and when you fill your body, everything will be fine. ”

Before she finished speaking, the little aunt bit her lip and closed her eyes, about wanting to cry, but she didn't want to cry, and the tears were gurgling down.

Because the little aunt blindly shed tears and did not speak, Cao Shi thought that it would not be beneficial to her condition to stand like this again, and after looking at it for a while, he said to Zhuang Hu and Aunt Xi: "Otherwise, let's all go out and let her rest for a while." The decoction is here, and it would be good to urge her to take some more. ”

Zhuang Hu and Aunt Xi looked at each other and nodded.

A few people were about to go out, but the little aunt suddenly turned over and wanted to get up, lying on the edge of the bed, and said, "Madam! ”

This time it was a shout to stay Cao's.

Cao stopped and turned his head to look at her.

I saw that the little aunt opened her mouth, wanted to speak and stopped, and the corners of her red eyes were like bleeding, and they had not been broken.

Cao shook her head and motioned to the girl who knelt on the ground to help wipe her tears help her lie down, Aunt Xi couldn't bear it and went to help.

When Cao's went out, the little aunt said something on the bed, I don't know if it was for Cao's or Zhuang Hu, so "In the end, they are all from the house." It's not a house, it's also blood relatives. ”

Zhuang Hu turned his head and said, "It's all like this, what are you doing with these words." ”

After speaking, he helped Cao Shi out of the house.

Under the porch outside, Cao asked Zhuang Hu: "Have you ever been here with Mrs. and Master?" ”

Zhuang Hu shook his head and said: "When my wife came back from Shouzhongju that day, she locked herself in the house, and asked people to pass it on to her when she needed to eat. Even I can't see it. The lord has affairs in the court, and in the past few days, he has been busy with the third and fourth masters to go out to socialize, either to the lord's house or to the lord's house. I don't know what national affairs are discussed. The fourth girl came, but I was afraid that she would be sad when she saw it, so I drove her to the Rolling Garden, and let the Rolling Garden accompany her. ”

With that, Zhuang Hu invited Cao to his courtyard again.

When he arrived at Zhuang Hu's residence, he was about to sit down and eat tea in the inner room, Zhuang Hu's son Cha Yutong took a horse whip and came back with a shaking head. Last year's fifth aunt's birthday, I was supposed to have a seat with others, but I didn't go at that time, and this year I said that I was punished. This banquet of wine and food, ask for some silver, mother, you have to give it. ”

When Zhuang Hu heard this, he was angry, slapped him on the head, and said: "It's really a disaster for losing money, your fifth aunt's birthday last year, and your fifth aunt will not be able to do it this year?" If you don't eat your aunt's wine, what do you go out to eat with others? It's your aunt who can't do it outside! I don't want silver! You've got what it takes, grab it outside! ”

No longer ignores Yutong, and the speed leads Cao's inside.

Zha Yutong raised his horsewhip and hit the door post, "snapped", and shouted: "If you don't give it, then I want to go." When the time comes, don't say you told me to do this. ”

When Zhuang Hu heard this, he became even more angry, and came out and shouted: "You stop!" ”

When Zha Yutong saw his mother come out, he immediately changed his smiling face, greeted him, and stretched out his hands to take the meaning of the silver, and said, "Give me ten taels of silver!" In addition to wine and food, you also need to invite someone to listen to the play and give rewards. The façade also needs it. ”

Zhuang Hu waited for him to finish speaking, kicked him on the buttocks, and said, "The beggar is at home, and he also serves as a façade to reward people!" If I were you, read and write tightly, know a few more words, and help me check my accounts. This time, the stomach is not hungry, the eyes are not hungry, there is no written and no rules, and the money comes when you reach out, do you think it is scattered in the sky? Is it as easy as that? ”

Zha Yutong was kicked and hurt, covered his buttocks, his eyes were swollen red, tears were about to fall, and he said angrily: "You earned money with your father, who will you give it to if you don't give it to me?" What kind of aunt and aunt are there in our old Cha family, you give more than this number of rewards! I'm your own son, isn't I? If not, I won't call you father and mother another day. ”

Let's say it, Zha Yutong dropped the horsewhip, turned around and ran.

Dao Feng and Jian Qiu shook their heads, comforted Zhuang Hu a little, and said, "Young Master!" Young Master Cousin! The chase.

Zhuang Hu said to the second servant: "Don't chase him! Leave it to him! ”

Dao Feng and Jian Qiu chased them out early.

At that moment, Zhuang Hu sighed, turned around and wanted to enter the door, just in time, he saw Guiyuan walking out of it.

Guiyuan said to Zhuang Hu: "Big girl, my wife said that she was thirsty, and asked when you could serve tea." ”

Zhuang Hu was really confused by his son, and hurriedly stomped his feet and said, "Look at me!" I was confused by this thief. I'll have someone bring it. ”

Gui Yuan smiled and watched Zhuang Hu enter the house, but she didn't go back and went outside.

Zhuang Hu entered the house and said to Cao Shi embarrassedly: "Madam, look! What is the use of having a son, he is angry every day? ”

Cao said: "Tell me what to show." I can't eat grapes, I'm just soured by you. Anyway, how much is ten taels of silver? A gentleman is outside, eating and drinking is wanted, I just heard that listening to the play and rewarding is the façade. He is young, and his ability to trade is up to you and your uncle, and I see that he has a chance. Why bother him! ”

Zhuang Hu said: "Mrs. doesn't know, that child doesn't obey." Spending money all day long, like running water. It's still small now, but when it's a little bigger, how can you manage it? Besides, the Dragon Boat Festival is coming, isn't his fifth aunt's birthday in Xifu going to be celebrated? Eating and drinking, eating and drinking at home is the most friendly and real, and going outside is nothing! Spread it out, and no one will talk about me? Madame, you help him again. ”

Cao Shi smiled, patted the back of Zhuang Hu's hand, and said, "You are more attentive than some people." I don't have as much money as you think, the money I earn now, whoever makes it, stretches out my feet in the end, and I have nothing to do, just call me hard for all these years. ”

Between the words, Gui Yuan came in with a smile and reported, "Madam, give it." The gentleman was happy and told me to tell his wife for him, and he kowtowed to his wife. ”

Cao smiled: "Look! Aren't you sensible? He glanced at Zhuang Hu reproachfully.

Zhuang Hu was stunned and said, "Mrs., you ......"

Zhuang Hu knew, just now the Cao family couldn't listen to it, and asked Guiyuan to send the silver out to Zha Yutong.

Now, Zhuang Hu blamed Cao's family, and thanked her for feeling inappropriate, so she stopped talking.

Cao Shi waved his hand and said, "The silver is mine, and it is not used in the public middle school." You don't have to make such a fuss. ”

Gui Yuan said again: "Dao Feng and Jian Qiu also gave some. Go back, big girl, you have to pay back some silver. As he spoke, he smiled at Cao.

Zhuang Hu's face blushed, sighed slightly, and thanked him.

After that, Cao Shi returned to the truth and asked Zhuang Hu: "What do you Dongfu doctors say?" ”

Zhuang Hu said: "It's okay if Mrs. doesn't ask, ask me, it can make me anxious." The lord and the wife don't manage it, and throw such a big red-hot pot to me, and they can't pick it up, and they can't pick it up. You say, I'll take care of it, whether it's the one who marries out or the next generation. Anyway, there's really no one to support it. So, if you think about it, you have to ask your wife to preside over it. ”

Cao Shi waved his hand and said, "What did you say?" I think she just said yes, 'It's not a family, it's blood relatives.' 'You can stand it! My own family, what do you do with these words. ”

Zhuang Hu nodded and said, "The doctor said that the blood loss, the bane left during childbirth, plus worries day and night. Mrs. You think, before and after production, the top priority of the foothold, you can't maintain yourself, and it will be tiring in the end. No wonder the lord and wife don't like to ask, it's her own contrivedness, hurting herself and me. ”

Cao Shi smiled and said, "If I am your old lady, I don't know how to say it." You don't know how unbearable your wife was that day, and the old lady pointed to her and said that she didn't care about other people's lives or deaths. When your master comes, he is a gentleman, and his face is gone. ”

These words made Zhuang Hu unable to reply.

After a while, Cao asked: "Originally, I wanted to invite the fairy Gu from Shouzhongju to come and take a walk, maybe I would help that child exorcise evil spirits and restore his personal appearance." Now that it's going to happen, I'm afraid it can't. The old lady doesn't know, if she doesn't know, she doesn't know the severity, she doesn't know the severity, how to deal with it? Besides, you see, the current retribution is over, and only a few days after the child was born, his own mother was sick like this. You say that you are not reincarnated as a demon, and no one believes it. Fortunately, the girl gave such a suggestion and said to invite the fairy girl. Who knows, the old lady doesn't follow! ”

Zhuang Hu nodded, full of worry.

Cao Shi said: "Even if it affects your Dongfu, it is still a matter of the small family. I'm afraid that it will affect the whole house, and even your old Cha family, such a disaster, in terms of responsibility, you and I will be involved. At the end of the day, only you and I are responsible. ”

Zhuang Hu said: "According to Mrs. Will, what should I do?" After thinking about it, he said, "How did Sister Jinghua Xie suggest to the wives?" How sooner or later? ”

Cao Shi smiled: "Let's go back to your first sentence first, how can you say it?" I'm from Beifu, and you're from Dongfu. And come and ask me. As for your sister's suggestion, I think you have heard about it and asked me again. Do your ears stuff cotton all day long? ”

Zhuang Hu was embarrassed and laughed a few times.

Cao said: "The four girls are small and can't be managed. Uncle Rolling Garden is like this, the little daughter-in-law has only come after all, how can the people of the small family manage it? Only counting on you. ”

Zhuang Hu said sadly: "Mrs. said that it was bad again, I was married outside." Big brother still talked about me that day! What am I? It's just the water that the daughter who marries out spills. ”

The two of you said a sentence to me, complained sadly and discussed, during which they ate a few cups of tea.

After about a while, Dao Feng and Jian Qiu ran in from outside, panting and reporting, "It's not good, my little aunt vomited blood and saw red." ”

Zhuang Hu and Cao's "ah" exclaimed, paused, and asked Dao Feng and Jian Qiu why they were so sudden? Didn't you just take the medicine? Aunt Xi is still over there? While lifting her skirt, she hurried to the courtyard of the little aunt's house.

When I arrived outside the little aunt's house, I saw that the fourth girl, Zhuang Yu, and the eldest grandmother also came.

The eldest grandmother dragged the four girls not to let them in, and Aunt Xi blocked the door, telling the eldest grandmother to stop some, and she still didn't want to call the people in the house to invite Mrs.
