Chapter 335: The Suffering of the Wife
What the woman said was also reasonable, it was better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, but this is the capital, she can't control it, and another mother-in-law, wearing a brand new cotton coat, scolded,
"You are a white-eyed wolf, madam, don't listen to her nonsense, we are all grateful for the good of our wife, and we will pray for Mrs. in front of Lord Chenghuang every day in the future."
Pearl also sighed and said, "I'm just doing my best, this is the capital, where can I stretch out my hand?" Wait a while, there are boys with bricks and thick felt, old lady, this city god temple is not small, there are many rooms, it is better to separate, the elderly, women and children, and those men, can be divided, it is best to find another person in charge, there is a house to live, there is food storage, everyone is warm, you can organize people, go out to find a job, women can do sewing, men can also find work to do, not to mention anything else, they are all from the Zhuang family, you can always work hard! If you are not in good health and cannot do heavy work, I can send someone to teach you survival skills. ”
The others didn't dare to say anything, the rice porridge was boiling in the pot, but the rice porridge was only generally thick, because Pearl specially instructed that people who had an empty stomach for a long time would be broken if they were full of food. The rest were more than twenty sacks, all piled up in the temple.
Qin Dezhang and Qin Dening looked at the porridge for a while, looked at the cooking medicine for a while, and followed the doctor to check the pulse of those who were sick. Pearl saw that there were two children under the age of one in this temple, and Pearl asked people to go back to find Qin Yan's old clothes when she was a child. It is estimated that two children can wear it. Seeing that the quilt they were wrapped in was dirty and thin, he asked the person who went back to bring a bag of children's quilts.
One of the children was sick and had some fever, and Pearl took out the medicine she had in the space, found hot water, flushed it, and poured it into the child. Some of these beggars had lung disease, some had a cold, and several elderly people had heart disease. The pearls are given medicine. Two of them were paralyzed, and Pearl was also given medicine, hoping that after they took the medicine, they could take care of themselves.
It didn't take long. The people who returned to the house soon returned. Not only did he pull back a lot of charcoal. There was also firewood, a cart of food, and a big bag of clothes. It was collected by Qin Yan's grandmother's family, and Qin Yan's clothes when she was a child were long gone. The nurse's family happened to have a child who was more than a year old, and when she heard that it was this matter, she found seven or eight sets of children's cotton jackets and cotton pants, as well as four thick quilts and four pairs of small shoes.
This time, he also brought a lot of thick felt, and made up the temple with bricks and stones, and fixed the felt, and the windows were also pasted with window paper. The rest of the felt was cut into pieces and spread on the haystack. There are also a lot of quilts, and there are pearls to find someone to make, and the Yue family has also collected a lot, and all the ones that are not used have been sent.
Really left a quality typhoid medicine, dysentery medicine, digestive medicine, antipyretic medicine. The medicine for wounds and the ointment for treating chilblains were the most, and when he was almost done, he pulled Qin Min away. The little girl can now be regarded as having seen the suffering of the world, and before leaving, Pearl instructed the people around Qin Dezhang to let the second young master and the third young master go back to disinfect and change their clothes. Be sure to rinse twice from head to toe with the potion specified by the pearl. And in the future, the two of them are not allowed to contact these people.
Qin Min has always been held by the nurse to see, and he has not touched others, so he is not afraid of those. Secretly put some Eight Merit Water in the pot of medicinal soup, and these people will be much better.
Waiting for the car, Qin Min was still looking back, and said to Pearl, "Mother, our family is rich, and if Min'er sells a random set of jewelry, you can give it to them, so that they can live a good life." ”
Pearl looked solemn and said, "There are more people with such ability in this capital than those beggars, why didn't they do it?" ”
Qin Min has nothing to say, yes! The powerful and rich abound in the capital, so why not do it? After thinking for a long time, Qin Min said, "Rescuing these beggars can also win everyone's name!" ”
"Min'er, whether it is a poor person or a rich person, they all want to live a peaceful life, they all know that in this world, there are too many people who need help, but in this way, if you give them money and things, you can keep them from starving to death, but in this world, there are too many poor people, if the reputation of a good person spreads, then, there will be countless people in need of help to come to you. Do you want to be a courtier, or do you want to buy people's hearts and compete with the emperor? What's more, among these people, there are mixed fish and dragons, you don't know their roots, they helped this time, so what about the future? Do you want to help them buy a house, buy land, help them retire in their old age, marry a wife and have children? At that time, who will think of your kindness? On the contrary, if you are regarded as fish and meat, and you are not allowed to be slaughtered, and you do not follow their wishes, then what you have done before will not only not get fame, but will also cause public anger. ”
Qin Min nodded, secretly relieved in her heart, originally she still thought that she would come to help from time to time in the future! Now that I hear my mother say this, isn't it just adding endless trouble to the family? When the time comes, I am afraid that no one will say that you are merciful, but that you are cruel and stingy!
Next, Qin Min told a lot of stories about 'Shengmi Endou Mi Hatred', especially what it means to be an immortal jump, and touching porcelain. What's more, in those places where salt merchants gather in the south, there is a lot of silver, and the women are playing tricks, and there is an industry in play, that is, Yangzhou thin horses. Thinking about what I have learned, it is all the lessons of our wives and wives, and those women, listening to their mothers say what they are learning, are really disgusted, but they also listened carefully, thinking in their hearts, in case they meet such a woman in the future, how to deal with it, think about it, I have seen the third uncle's concubine in the house, those two, it is estimated that they are Yangzhou thin horses. The ability to cause trouble is first-class, and the third aunt has never had a good face for the two of them, but she will not deliberately embarrass them, this is probably what my mother said, and to deal with them is to surrender my identity.
When I arrived at the gate of the temple, just in time for Mrs. Song, they had just arrived, and she was accompanied by her daughter Xiuyu, who was just seventeen years old this year, and she looked very quiet, and it seemed that she had read a lot of books. The pearl gave a meeting gift, it was a string of Buddhist beads, which seemed to be inconspicuous, and Mrs. Song gave Qin Min a pair of silver bracelets, which were also very delicate, and they were newly typed at first glance.
The two families first went to worship the Buddha, and then went to see the abbot of the temple, Master Hui Ke, and sent good wine, and then everyone went to eat. Master Hui Ke is a very good person, with a kind face, someone gave him wine, he smiled and thanked him, but I don't know what will happen if he tastes this good wine? This Master Hui Ke's drinking friends can have Princess Shu and his wife!
This temple is the essence of those famous big temples, in this backyard, planted countless flowers and plants, among the Tallinn, also planted a lot of plum trees, at this time the plum blossoms are just right, the two families are here to talk about poetry and painting, laughter, Qin Min is also dressed very plain today, compared with Mrs. Song's family, it is not very tight.
Pearl said about the relief of beggars, and also said Qin Min's words, Mrs. Song listened to it, and felt that what Pearl said was very reasonable, and said that many people sold themselves into slavery, but in the end, they were spies of political enemies, or frivolous women who wanted to seduce the princes in the house, so there are many taboos in this good deed.
Before leaving, Mrs. Song gave the painting to Pearl, Pearl was overjoyed, and then took Qin Min home, and now the bait has been released, just waiting to collect the fish.
When I returned home, I heard that there was a disturbance in the courtyard of the Yue family, and it turned out that the concubine Gu Shi complained to the third master, saying that the Yue family, as the wife of the family, treated her harshly. The third master, Qin Wang, was angry and furious in Yue's house, and the Wang family also added fuel and vinegar, saying that Mrs. had been using her daughter to blackmail her, and now Qin Yan no longer recognized her.
The Yue family had already asked people to come over and talk about this matter, and wanted Pearl to help, but Mama Liu and the others left, so they said to Pearl, "Big lady, is this matter going to be taken care of?" ”
"Anyway, of course, but I shouldn't say anything about peace. When the master comes back, let the master come forward. Pearl took off her coat and put on a lake-green bamboo leaf pattern soft satin gown, a dark green pleated skirt, and the jewelry on her head was taken off, but the bun on the top of her head was fixed with a topaz pearl-inlaid hair comb, and the hair behind her was pinched with modern crystal-encrusted diamond tassel clips.
When Qin Hui came back, he happened to see the pearl embroidering in the embroidery room! This time she plans to embroider an interstitial screen, which is almost finished, this time with a different color double-sided embroidery, embroidered with a cute chubby little flower cat, and a white Persian cat on the other side. Seeing that Qin Hui was back, Pearl hurriedly went up to help take off his official uniform, put on a robe, and asked Qin Hui to serve ginseng and chicken soup. Then he talked about the Yue family.
The trouble is because of the bird's nest, which envelops Qin Yan, and also because of the pearls, Qin Yan's clothes are all given by pearls, and she often eats delicious food on weekdays, and she also eats bird's nest porridge with Yue's family, and her face is much better after only a few days. Pearl also told her husband that this bird's nest was made by herself for Yue's body, and Yue's felt sorry for her concubine, so she took it out for her to eat, but she didn't have it. It turns out that Qin Wang is in office, and there are often people who are filial, these two concubines, they eat bird's nest shark fin on weekdays, and the gold and silver jewelry are almost the same as Yue's, and now they are back, seeing Yue's bird's nest to eat, and ginseng and chicken soup to drink, they are naturally unhappy, and they are justifiable, in their opinion, Yue's things are not equal to the things of the whole family, these two concubines, it is really excessive, Yue's learned that people followed their husbands to take office, and they were all filial piety by their officials and wives as serious wives, and they almost fainted in anger, and they cried so well that they were not wronged, The two sons felt sorry for their mother, and the courtyard of Qin Wang was lively. Qin Wang now knew that his wife couldn't eat bird's nest at home at all, and he felt a little guilty, and the Yue family was completely sad and desperate. When Qin Hui heard this, he was also very unhappy, and the third brother was a little confused. It's to talk about it.
There was still some time before dinner in the evening, so Qin Hui went directly to find the third brother. Pearl listened to the reason for this matter, and was even more sad, this big wife was thrown at home with children to wait for the elderly, and had to feed the children born by the little wife, even if she was already very fond of the concubine, but she still let the family find fault with it, if this matter was changed to her own head, what if it changed? It seems that he has to be warned not to fall into that step. (To be continued.) )
