Chapter 232: The Wooden Terrace Goes Down at Night

The two of you push me to let me, but Aunt Zhang always refused to let Xin Yi touch the water.

Xin Yi didn't want to go, "Auntie, you are a guest, how embarrassing it is for me to ......"

Aunt Zhang stretched her neck, glanced at the direction of the stove room with the smell of food, and said in a suppressed voice: "Xin Yi, when you look back, you see that there is a good offspring, just help my two wild girls to slap their eyes...... As long as they promise a good family, I will make you a cow and a horse, and I will be willing. ”

Xin Yi smiled bitterly, "The eldest lady will see the outside world when she says this, don't worry, I will definitely respect their intentions and pick a good son-in-law for you......"

As she spoke, she suddenly became serious again, "Auntie, what have my two brothers and sisters-in-law been doing lately?" ”

Aunt Zhang sighed, "When it was cold last year, your eldest brother and second brother listened to your words and went to Hongqiao to resell coal, but they made a lot of money back. But after the beginning of spring, the business will be light, such as today is getting hotter and hotter, this business is even more unsustainable, simply closed the shop, came back to follow their old man, back to Hongqiao to set up a stall to sell rice cakes, how much can earn a few chews. Otherwise, a large family with more than a dozen mouths wants to eat......"

After a pause, she talked about her daughter-in-law, and her face lightened slightly.

"Your two sisters-in-law, take care of the children at home. Help with household chores...... What else can you do? ”

Xin Yi was silent for a moment, "Auntie, look, how about letting two sisters-in-law come to work in my pharmacy?" ”

"What?" Aunt Zhang was so happy that she forgot to close her mouth.

Xin Yi knew that she heard it, and smiled slightly, "If the child is inconvenient to bring, you can also bring it here, be a companion with Sannian Zhen'er, and play and learn together." ”

Uncle Zhang has three granddaughters, and only one grandson is less than three years old.

The girls don't go to school and grow up at home, so they only have one way to get married, and Xin Yi wants to give them more opportunities.

When Aunt Zhang heard this, her hands trembled with excitement, and tears were about to roll out.

"What's so embarrassing, this, this...... How can we be happy when our family eats and drinks yours? ”

"Can't say that. They eat by their labor, and they take my wages to work for me. ”

In fact, there is a shortage of manpower in the Xinyi pharmacy, and there is a doctor in the medicine hall, which can be turned around, but in the pharmaceutical factory at the back, the preparation of medicinal materials needs helpers, cleaning, cutting, steaming, and one process after another.

With the lesson of the Tan family's response to the diagnosis and sending a guy to go undercover, Xin Yi was very cautious in the preparation of medicinal materials, and did not dare to recruit new people easily.

The two sisters-in-law of the lover, looking at Wenwen's quiet appearance, are also diligent people, with sharp hands and feet, every time they come to eat, they are rushing to work, Xin Yi has been observing for a long time, and feels that it is most appropriate to find them......

Aunt Zhang laughed so much that her mouth cracked, and she called her daughter-in-law with a loud voice.

"Chunmei, Hui Niang...... You don't come here yet! Xin Yi wants to accept you to work. ”

The two little daughters-in-law were helping in the stove room when they heard their mother-in-law calling and hurriedly ran out. The others heard her weeping with joy and followed.

So, Xin Yi recruited two more buddies - a brother of Liang and Xiangling, and a younger brother.

There are six people in the family working in the pharmacy, and they are definitely unwilling to change to others, but Xin Yi has a bright temperament, and he has been with Xiang Lingliang for so long, and seeing that they have no crooked thoughts, he happily arranged it.

At dinner that day, two large round tables were sitting, and the whole family was happy.

During the dinner, he mentioned the affairs of Zhang Zhengxiang's family.

Since Liu's death, Zhang Zhengxiang has been like a kite with a string, more absurd than his son Zhang Shilang.

They said that the old ones took the prostitutes by the Hongqiao Bridge to their homes, and the small ones lingered in the fireworks and willow alleys all day long, each with its own way of playing, and they were afraid that it would not be long before the little belongings left by Zhang Xun would be destroyed.

Poor Zhang Dalang and Dalang's daughter-in-law, dragging two children, tired and tired all day long to support their family......

Xin Yi listened and didn't say much.

Xiang Ling said suddenly: "The last time I went back to the village, I met my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law asked me if I wanted anyone else in the shop, but I didn't dare to agree, I just said that the pharmacy had enough people......"

She glanced at Xin Yi, a little timid.

Sister-in-law Gong is not a bad person, and she didn't have a bad heart towards Xin Yi at the beginning, but Xin Yi didn't want to have anything to do with that family anymore, so she didn't dare to help her.

It's just that when Uncle Zhang's family returned to the village that night, she took some wrapped zongzi, packed them in a basket, stuffed another piece of silver into them, and handed them to her beloved.

"Don't say it's me, just say it's your own heart."

The lover obeyed her, didn't ask anything, nodded and answered.

It wasn't until the rest of the family left that the Xinyi Pharmacy was completely quiet.

Xin Yi and An Niangzi carefully checked the doors and windows, and then set up a small table on the big wooden platform near the river on the second floor, put fruits, snacks, etc., and called people to come up and enjoy the shade together.

Doctor Ge went home, Zhou Daozi was an idle cloud and wild crane, and he had already taken the medicine shop as his home, and Xin Yi also arranged a quiet place for him in the side courtyard.

At first he was called, but he refused to come, because there were only women on the second floor except for the children.

Later, under Xin Yi's repeated invitations, the old man pulled down his son and came up to admire the moon.

The cool breeze is blowing, the silver moon is like a hook, and a few wind lanterns are reflected in the river.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ The clouds break through the moon and the flowers make shadows, the heavy curtains cover the lights, and the wind is uncertain. People are quiet. Tomorrow sunset red should be full of paths. What a beautiful scenery under the moon. ”

Zhou Daozi stroked his beard and sighed at night, looked at the people on the wooden platform, and frowned.

"What's missing?"

The three children were sitting on the floor, playing with the blocks that Xin Yi asked the carpenter to help them chisel, and when they heard this, Er Nian raised his head and grinned.

"Mrs. Hu was frightened by the third sister and refused to come out."

"Not really." San Nian curled the corners of her lips, "Mrs. Hu said that she wants to raise the baby in her belly and can't move around at will." ”

At dinner tonight, Hu Man didn't come out, and she didn't come out to eat a little until everyone was gone after the meal.

Basically, she has no different routine from when she lived in the basement, she can't see people during the day, and she acts secretly for fear of being seen......

"Ugh." Zhou Daozi said: "Mrs. Hu is a poor person. ”

Xin Yi said: "When she gives birth and sees her child, she will slowly get better." ”

Zhou Daozi nodded and asked her, "What did the lady do, which ...... The fat cream for skin care is specially prepared for Hu Niangzi? Or is there some other use? ”

The word skin care was learned by Zhou Daozi from Xin Yi.

Xin Yi listened and couldn't help but smile.

"To make money."

"Make money?" Zhou Daozi raised his eyebrows, feeling that this little lady's heart was really big.

Now that Xinyi Pharmacy is named Bianjing, and the silver is flowing in like flowing water, what kind of cream does she have to sell, Zhou Daozi feels that she is a little out of business.

"I thought that the lady was doing a pharmaceutical research institute to research drugs."

He almost didn't say it directly, and asked her to save Fu Jiuqu wholeheartedly.

Xin Yi knew the real reason why Zhou Daozi stayed in the pharmacy, and smiled lightly.

"Take your time, our pharmaceutical research institute still needs to be improved, these creams are also medicines, which can accumulate experience in pharmaceutical for us, and can make the little ladies delicate and beautiful, which is also a great achievement. Mr. Zhou said, isn't it? ”

Zhou Daozi sighed softly.

An Niangzi agreed very much, touched her face and said: "With the fat cream from our own pharmacy, my face is white, slippery, and much younger." ”

Xin Yi smiled: "You are not old. ”

An Niangzi smiled, and suddenly stared at Xin Yi.

"I think the lady must be a fairy descending to earth."

Xin Yi sighed, was stunned by her, laughed instantly, and kept waving his hand.

"Don't, don't, the fairy will go down to earth to go through calamities. As long as I keep it smooth, I don't want to go through calamities, and I don't want to be a fairy. ”

Sannian stood up, "No, my mother is a fairy, and my mother is better looking than a fairy." ”

Ernian said: "The third sister patted the sycophants again. Have you ever seen a fairy? How do you know that fairies are not as good-looking as mothers? ”

Sannian: "I know." In the world, my mother is the first to look good, the best-looking. ”

Ernian: "What about you?" ”

Sannian was stunned, "I'm second good-looking." ”

Looking at the child's sincerity, Xin Yi laughed.

The laughter on the wooden platform came out of the Wuzhang River, and the silk and bamboo in the tiles of the wine shop next door were connected together, and they became a dreamlike and prosperous night scene in Bianjing City......

Xin Yi was tired during the day, and slept very deeply at night, but he had nightmares. I was busy embroidering herb bales all night, and my hands were covered with blood when needles pierced my fingers......

The blood dripped and dripped down, slowly staining the palm red.

When she woke up sweaty, she found that it was already dark.

"Lady! Wake up, ladyβ€”"

An Niangzi knocked on the door outside, and the voice was a little hurried.

Xin Yi yawned halfway and froze, hurriedly tipping his shoes over.

The door creaked open, and An Niangzi outside the door was pale and her eyes were full of fear.

"I got up early to sprinkle and sweep, and found blood ...... on the lintel of our medicine hall."

"Blood? Where did the blood come from? Xin Yi frowned, "Let's go, I'll take a look." ”

------Off topic------

Fu Jiuqu: What should I do, I was happy when I saw her, I didn't think about tea and dinner when I didn't see her, I didn't even want to go home for the Dragon Boat Festival, I just wanted to stay in the pharmacy...... Sisters, tell me, am I seriously ill?

Xin Yi: It's called love syndrome, come to me for treatment.

Fu Jiuqu: Is Bao cured?

Xinyi: ...... Break off love. Click!
