Hearing this, Song He'er roughly understood.

Maybe Qin Xiaoniang gave birth to a stillborn baby, but in order to protect herself, she had to raise a child from elsewhere, but a woman born in this era, if she gave birth to a baby girl, it would be useless, it would be better to give birth to a brother, and her waist would be straighter in the future.

"A-Niang, can ...... Why did you choose me, with A-Niang's situation at that time, if you give birth to a boy, the mother is more expensive than the child, and the people in the house will not treat you slowly. ”

Qin Xiaoniang smiled bitterly and shook her head helplessly, "With my situation at the time, if I gave birth to a boy, the eldest lady would definitely not leave me, she had not given birth to a concubine for many years, if I knew that I gave birth to a boy, how could I still have a way to live today, so I could only hold a baby girl, even if the general's mansion didn't pay attention to this child, it would be for the sake of her being the blood of the Song family, and take me out temporarily to save my life......"

Hearing this, Song He'er only felt panicked, she only knew that the original owner's mother was a woman with a hard life, who was excluded and cold-eyed in the house, and she didn't enjoy happiness for half her life.

Now that she knows this, she feels even more sorry for the original owner.

Originally, she could have been born in an ordinary family, Cheng Huan was under the knees of her biological parents, but she entered the General's Mansion by mistake, followed Qin Xiaoniang to suffer a lot, and Fanghua died early.

Hey, in the end, it's the fault of this era, the requirements for women are too high, and many things are mostly cheaper than those negative men, and instead of them, the only ones who have been ridiculed by the world are powerless women.

"A-Niang, don't be sad, since God arranged for us to be mother and daughter, I will definitely honor you, from now on, no one dares to bully us anymore, Song Xiaoqi, that old fox, he won't live long......"

Qin Xiaoniang's tears still slid down uncontrollably, and while crying, she sobbed and replied: "It's good that you don't blame me, it's A-Niang's fault, it's A-Niang's fault that makes you suffer so much......"

"What are you mother and daughter talking about here, and you're still carrying us behind your back!" Zhang Xiu'e's voice really scared people.

Song He'er hurriedly wiped Qin Xiaoniang's tears, then stepped forward and replied with a smile: "Third aunt, I smelled the smell of vegetables as soon as you came in, what are you doing today?" I'd love to have a try. ”

"Hey, didn't you go to Jiangning with that person? In that place in Jiangning, there is nothing to eat, did you come back hungry? ”

"I ...... I haven't eaten enough, what's wrong with eating some of the rice cooked by the third aunt, is it because the third aunt is too careful and reluctant to let me take a bite? ”

"You child, how can I be so stingy? I just heard from your third uncle, I just saw you enter this house, and saw that Qin Niangzi didn't go out, so I felt that it should be you two talking about yourself, so I didn't call anyone to disturb you, but now the food is almost cold, and if you don't eat it, it won't taste good. ”

"Eat, who says you won't eat? My aunt just said that she was very hungry and wanted to eat more in a while! ”

After saying that, Song He'er turned around and pulled Qin Xiaoniang.

After slowing down for a while, Qin Xiaoniang's eyes were not so red, but her face was still a little unnatural.

Zhang Xiu'e is not a person who is good at observing words and feelings, so she didn't ask more questions, but just called the two of them to eat in the hall outside.

"Auntie, let's go, Brother Huan'er may be hungry too, I heard the fourth aunt say this morning, Brother Huan'er has been able to learn to walk, and when the weather is warm, you can take him to the market to wander, boy, it's not good to keep him stuffy in the house."

Everyone smiled and went to the hall to eat.

Tian Niangzi cooked a good dish, I didn't see her ability before, but because there were no better ingredients and ingredients, now they have earned their own money, bought fresh vegetables and condiments, and the dishes they cook are naturally much better than when they fled.

"By the way, He'er, have you considered the matter I told you about opening a crude medicine shop before?"

Song He'er took a piece of lotus root and put it in her mouth, "Well, I have thought about it, most of the people in Jiangning City are restaurants, teahouses, and tile shops, and I haven't seen a few decent pharmacies, even if there are sitting in the hall, they are also mediocre, I think those people with good medical skills are all around the imperial city, and Jiangning does not have them." ”

Song Xiaoyu nodded when she heard this, "This is true, although I have never been to Jiangning, but I have heard those merchants who come and go say that to see a doctor, you have to go to a place called Chenghu, which is not far from the imperial city, and it is heavily guarded, and many people can't line up in order to see a doctor!" ”

While eating, Zhang Xiu'e asked suspiciously, "Really?" The people around here have to spend a lot of money to rent a car to see a doctor at the foot of the imperial city? ”

Song Xiaoyu was speechless, "Then whose family is about to die, and they are still dragging it out?" ”

"There are also Lang Zhong around here, so there's no need to be so exaggerated, right? Besides, no matter how shrewd the medical skills are, you can see headaches and brain fevers, and you don't have to run that far. ”

"Then you mean, you don't approve of us opening a crude medicine shop?"

"I didn't mean that, it's just that now we're all trapped here, Xiaoyangzhuang can't get out, what Jiangning is mentioned, besides, we owe others money, and we only pay back half of it, and the rest still have to eat and build a house, we really can't go to open a pharmacy so soon!"

What Zhang Xiu'e said is not completely unreasonable, the investment cost of opening a crude medicine shop is the largest, in addition to rent, there are also high-priced medicinal materials, if there are not a few hundred taels, you can't afford to open a crude medicine shop.

Song Xiaoyu is a man, so he naturally wants to give it a go, if he can go to Jiangning, he would rather give up the two small shops here.

"Third uncle, third aunt, don't quarrel between the two of you, let's save money first, and when it is stable in a few days, let's discuss the matter of the crude medicine shop."

"yes, okay." Song Xiaoyu nodded and continued to eat.

......

The days in Xiaoyangzhuang are really boring, and there is nothing to do at hand, which makes people feel unaccustomed.

So these days, Zhang Xiu'e and Qin Xiaoniang planted all kinds of vegetables around the house, and also raised chickens, ducks and geese around the fence.

Song He'er hadn't received news from Jiang Huaifu for a long time, and she was very worried, if no one sent a message back, she would have to spend a lot of money to send someone to Xizhou to find out the news.

"He'er! Ah Lu beside Jiang Gongzi is here! ”

Zhang Xiu'e shouted towards this side while holding a hoe.

Song He'er followed her line of sight, and saw that the faces of the people not far away were a little unsightly, and the people were also cowardly, standing listlessly under the sun.
