Chapter 18 Anger does not pay for life
The eldest lady listened to the greetings between the brothers and sisters on the side, and finally looked at the empty space and interjected: "It's also that the sister-in-law is too busy this time, and she doesn't think about it enough, and the money woman is transferred from Zhuangzi again, and she looks a little thicker, and her sister should dislike her, but there are not enough people in the sister's house, just tell the sister-in-law, and the people in the house are at the mercy of the sister-in-law, if the sister can't look down on all of them, the sister-in-law will let the tooth mother-in-law send someone over to let the sister pass her eyes, the younger sister has grown up in Yunmeng Mountain since she was a child, and she doesn't know much about this outside thing, rashly brought someone back from outside, if you let the indiscriminate person take the opportunity to get in, it won't be good for my sister to spread the word. ”
The eldest lady frowned when he heard this, and he knew that there would be no good thing for the eldest lady to call Minghui over on this big night.
Shouxiao didn't let him live in peace.
Master Ming was about to open his mouth to reprimand, but he heard Minghui say slowly and leisurely: "Mother Hu is old, not only has a bad memory, but also has a bad ear, I don't use her because Mrs. Qian has a fox smell, and I also said it clearly in person, Mother Hu still heard it wrong and remembered it wrong, but it made my sister-in-law misunderstood." ”
Master Ming was stunned, glanced at the eldest lady unhappily, and said in a deep voice: "If you have a fox smelly mother-in-law, just stay in Zhuangzi, what do you bring to the house?" ”
The eldest lady was so angry that she picked her nails, is the focus on Mrs. Qian? The focus is on bringing people back from the outside, the reason why she said Mrs. Qian first was just to find an excuse, but now it's good, but she was bitten back.
The eldest lady squeezed out an ugly smile and said dryly: "So that's the case, it seems that Mother Hu heard it wrong, Mrs. Qian has a fox smell, I didn't know before, but now I know, send her back to Zhuangzi." ”
Minghui smiled: "Sister-in-law, don't punish Mother Qian for this matter, birth, old age, sickness and death are normal human feelings, Mother Hu is just poor in ear and bad memory, she should be cured, she should be honored and raised, you can't just drive Mother Hu out of the house for this little thing, sister-in-law, you can quickly dissipate your anger." ”
Big Lady......
Which sentence did I say that I wanted to drive Mother Hu out of the house?
Mother Hu had been eavesdropping outside the door, and at this time she couldn't help it anymore, so she rushed in and knelt on the ground: "It's all the old slave's fault, it's the old slave who doesn't have long ears and no long memory, the eldest lady punishes the old slave, and the old slave accepts the punishment." ”
The eldest lady was about to speak, Minghui smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, don't be angry anymore, Mother Hu is so scared that she forgets the rules, and she is so angry that she hurts her body, and Mother Hu also feels sorry for you." ”
Big Lady......
Am I angry with Hu's mother? If I die, I will make you angry.
"I'm old, why don't you know the rules, who let you in? Get out! With a click, the eldest lady broke a piece of her fingernail.
Mother Hu crawled out with a roll, and the eldest lady forced a smile: "Let my sister laugh, it's the sister-in-law who is not strict." ”
Minghui smiled: "Speaking of adding people, there is no shortage of people in my sister's house, sister-in-law doesn't always have to worry about my sister, my sister grew up in Taoism since she was a child, and most of her daily affairs are done by herself. ”
Master Ming stroked his beard and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, it should be so, Wang Zhenren is worthy of being a master, teach well, teach well!" ”
Minghui got up and thanked her, and said to the eldest lady: "By the way, sister-in-law, the child who was picked up today will be taken away by her family in a few days." ”
The eldest lady is about to cry, and you finally mention that child.
"Didn't my sister buy that kid she said?" The eldest lady pressed the green tendons that appeared from the corners of her forehead with a handkerchief.
"It's picked up, this kind of trivial matter, sister-in-law will hand it over to my sister, before she finds her family, her food and clothing are all taken from the tent in her sister's house, three or four years old little girl, sister and three people are not too late, each person saves a mouthful of porridge, half an egg, enough for her to eat." Minghui said softly.
Master Ming felt uncomfortable when he heard it, why, his own sister picked up a little girl, and she still had to save rations from her mouth? If the old lady knew, I was afraid that she would come to him in the middle of the night to be a big brother.
"A three- or four-year-old child can eat and drink as much as he wants? Why is it still worth putting on the table? Since it was picked up, it is best to find her family, if she can't find it, in a few years, she will stay in the house as a maid. ”
Master Ming has made a final decision, what else can the eldest lady say? Everything she says now is wrong.
Minghui took it not too late, and left with a smile.
She will not leave the child in the house, and when the master comes, she will hand the child over to the master to raise, and before contacting Wan Cangnan and Liu Sanniang, the child will be raised by the master's side.
That's Liu Sanniang's daughter, her little sister.
What Minghui didn't expect was that the next day, she heard that the eldest lady was sick.
No need to ask, it must have made her angry.
Mother Hu was embarrassed in public, and was personally considered by the eldest lady in front of the eldest lady to have a bad memory and poor ear power, so it stands to reason that she can't stay with the eldest lady to take care of things, but the eldest lady is reluctant, so she is also sick, and she is raised at home at this time, and when everyone forgets about it, she will be called back.
Minghui was not interested in these things, early in the morning, she first went to the west room to see the little girl, the rash on the child's body had faded, it was itchy now, her spirit was better, and she ate a whole bowl of egg custard for breakfast.
Minghui went to see the black cat again, no wonder the world often says that cats have nine lives, the black cat that was stiff yesterday was able to stand up today, but the body has not fully recovered, staggered to stand up, and then lay down again.
Minghui fed it another medicine, and the black cat seemed to know that this was a lifesaver for it, so she opened her mouth without Minghui breaking its mouth.
Minghui touched its head and said with a smile, "You are really spiritual." ”
The black cat gave her an indifferent look, barked, and closed her eyes again.
Minghui rolled up her sleeves, took out the white sandalwood that had been soaked in honey for three days and three nights, put it in a silver bowl, watched the white sandalwood turn purple, and let it be taken to the small stove without delay, added fir charcoal and fried it, and after it was fried, it was pounded into powder together.
and took musk for a penny, and grinded it separately; Xiazhou Bijian tea is made into tea soup, put the tea soup to clarify, and take the bottom viscous part.
After mixing these raw materials together, Minghui asked her to add eight taels of white honey to it, and after adjusting it, she took turns not too late, pounded it hundreds of times with a milk mallet, put it into a porcelain jar again, sealed it with molten wax, and buried it in a cool place on the side of the yard.
Not late asked curiously, "Miss, how long will this be buried?" ”
"At least for a month, if only there was a cellar, you don't have to dig a pit every time and bury it." Minghui was a little sorry, how good it would be if she could return to Yunmengguan, there is a cellar in Yunmengguan.
Thinking of Yunmengguan, Minghui muttered quietly, why hasn't there been any news from the master.
There are some things, I just can't help but chatter, just after noon, Master Ming sent a rough mother-in-law to call her, and her master Wang Zhenren arrived!
