Chapter 78: Cousin
Wei Chen waited for Wei Shu to calm down, then picked up the deed of the people on the table, and picked a few to introduce to her.
Bai Zhi, a first-class female envoy, can write and calculate, has courage, dares to make decisions, and is mainly responsible for assisting Wei Shuyi in handling the affairs of the hospital and managing a group of subordinates.
Banxia, a first-class female envoy, has a gentle temperament, is careful and thoughtful, is responsible for taking care of Wei Shuyi's daily life, and serves Wei Shuyi closely.
There are also three second-class female envoys of Chunlan, Xia Lan, and Qiulan, as well as four third-class female envoys of peach blossoms, lotuses, lotus, and chrysanthemums.
The second-class female envoy is responsible for daily shopping, serving tea and water, while the third-class female envoy is responsible for washing and sprinkling, and cooking on the fire.
Although these seven people are not as good as Bai Zhi and Banxia Lingxing, they are diligent in their work, quick in their hands and feet, and loyal and willing to work.
Among the four rough envoys, Mrs. Zhang cooks good dishes and is in charge of the kitchen, Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu are loyal and brave, and they are both alert and powerful, so they are suitable for watching the door and nursing home.
There is also a Zhao Pozi, who can neither cook nor take care of the house, but she is one of the most famous stable women in Youyang.
Mrs. Zhao has rich experience in delivering babies, and she is also clear about various precautions during pregnancy, and there are hundreds of babies born in Jiang through her hands.
The most admirable thing is that Mrs. Zhao has rescued pregnant women with dystocia from the brink of life and death again and again, and extracted teeth from the mouth of the king of Hades.
The people of Youyang call her a living bodhisattva who saves childbirth and sends children to save life.
Mrs. Zhao is old, she likes to be quiet and doesn't like to move, she has always only delivered babies in Youyang City, and she is not very willing to go far away, and Wei Chen has not asked for it after a few times.
Fortunately, Mrs. Zhao has a son who works as a steward in the Sheng family firm, and relying on this relationship, Wei Chen invited this living bodhisattva to Yangzhou.
In Qinyun Courtyard, she was served with delicious food and drink, until Wei Shuyi gave birth safely, and then sent her back to Youyang.
In addition to these thirteen female envoys, there were also two clever servants who ran errands, and together they were fifteen servants.
Wei Shuyi sat on the bed, quietly listening to Wei Chen's introduction of these people, and after Wei Chen finished speaking, she looked at a pile of deeds and a pile of silver tickets on the table, and couldn't help but sigh lightly, and her heart was full of emotion.
From the allocation of manpower to the cost of silver and silver, Wei Chen has already arranged everything in Qinyun Courtyard for her, which can be described as well-intentioned, what reason does she have to refuse?
Worried about rising out of the blue?
In fact, without Wei Chen's persuasion, Wei Shuyi herself understood that this was simply her own deception.
She didn't fight or grab in the Sheng family, she was cautious, walking on thin ice, even if she was wronged, she just swallowed it silently in her stomach and never said a word.
It was rare for Sheng Hong to come to Qinyun Courtyard, and Wei Shuyi did not have the slightest intention of retaining, but wished that Sheng Hong would leave quickly, so as not to attract secret jealousy.
Isn't that forbearant enough?
What can I get in exchange?
Wei Shuyi is also the little lady of the Sheng family, and she is still pregnant with Sheng Hong's child, but she can't even supply basic charcoal food, and she has to rely on pawning jewelry to barely survive.
Blindly swallowing your anger will only increase the oppression.
Why doesn't Wei Shuyi understand this truth?
But what about understanding?
Wang Ruofu is the eldest lady who is marrying Ming Media, she is noble, decent, her son is competitive, and her mother's family supports her.
Although Lin Yushuang is a concubine, she also has a son and a daughter, and she is favored by Sheng Hong, and her pomp is not much worse than that of Wang Ruofu, a big lady.
In the face of these two, Wei Shuyi was powerless to fight, and he didn't dare to fight, so he could only put on a posture of "not fighting", trying to dilute his sense of existence, and only asking for a place to live in a corner of charity.
But people are not as good as heaven, Sheng Hong's sudden interest inadvertently brought a small life to Wei Shuyi's stomach, but it also pushed Wei Shuyi to the cusp.
Wang Ruofu didn't wait to see Wei Shuyi, and Lin Yushuang was even more worried that Wei Shuyi's birth of a boy would threaten her status, and she was targeted everywhere.
Wei Shuyi was already physically and mentally exhausted, if it weren't for the child in her womb, I'm afraid she wouldn't have been able to support it a long time ago.
However, just when Wei Shuyi was almost desperate for the future, Wei Chen fell from the sky, rekindling hope in Wei Shuyi's heart.
The manpower and money brought by Wei Chen were indeed things that Wei Shuyi urgently needed, but they were all secondary.
The most important thing is the appearance of Wei Chen, which told everyone in the Sheng family that Wei Shuyi's mother's family has someone, and it will no longer be rootless duckweed.
Wei Shuyi suddenly found that as soon as Wei Chen came, he had everything.
Wei Shuyi looked at the handsome and elegant young man in front of him, and asked cautiously: "Brother Chen, today is the first time you and I have met, why do you bother to help me so much?" ”
"Because you're my aunt!" Wei Chen did not hesitate at all, and said as a matter of course.
Because you're my aunt!
The moment he heard this, Wei Shuyi only felt that the softest place in his heart was touched, and he couldn't help but feel a sour nose, and tears burst out of his eyes.
"Oh, auntie, you're ......"
Wei Chen saw Wei Shuyi crying with pear blossoms and rain, and he panicked for a while, whether it was in his previous life or in this life, Wei Chen was most afraid of women crying, and when he saw women shed tears, he didn't know what to do.
Crash!
The thick curtain separating the inner and outer rooms was lifted at once, and Xiao Minglan who heard the movement came in in a panic.
Seeing her mother washing her face with tears, Minglan was heartbroken, and hurriedly asked Xiao Tao to bring a handkerchief, and climbed onto the bed to wipe her tears for Wei Shuyi.
She gently patted Wei Shuyi's back and glared at Wei Chen angrily: "You big villain, you must have made my mother cry!" ”
Wei Chen was speechless, and could only smile bitterly.
"Minglan, don't be rude to your cousin!"
Wei Shuyi cried for a while, and his emotions were almost vented, and when he saw that Minglan was disrespectful to Wei Chen, he hurriedly opened his mouth to stop. Then he waved his hand and instructed Minglan: "Minglan, this is your cousin Chen, go, give your cousin a salute." ”
"Mother-"
Minglan dragged a long voice, with a look of grievance and reluctance, but seeing the anger in Wei Shuyi's eyes, Minglan still admitted it, and moved out of bed one by one.
Under Wei Shuyi's gaze, Minglan walked up to Wei Chen with small steps, and reluctantly bowed down: "Cousin." ”
"Good."
Wei Chen answered, his face full of spring breeze, and he leaned over to touch Minglan 's head.
"It's not going to be tall if you touch your head!"
Minglan didn't dare to hide, so she could only stare at Wei Chen, gritting her teeth and threatening with a breath.
Wei Chen just didn't see it, and continued to rub the dog's head wantonly.
Well, it feels really good.
Wei Chen nodded contentedly, then withdrew his hand, took out a golden lock pendant from his arms, a piece of mutton fat white jade pendant, and put it in Minglan palm.
"Oh, this is a gift from your cousin, let's play with it!"
Who wants your stuff!
Minglan was smacked on the head, very unhappy, and was about to choke Wei Chen a few words, but heard Wei Shuyi say in a deep voice: "Minglan don't want to thank your cousin?" ”
"Oh-"
Mother had an order, and Minglan could only accept her fate, obediently took the golden lock and jade pendant, and owed the debt: "Thank you cousin for the gift." ”
Wei Shuyi said apologetically: "Brother Chen, Ming'er is young and ignorant, don't be surprised." ”
"Aunt is too worried, we are all a family, what's so strange?" Wei Chen waved his hand disappreciatively, and his smile when he looked at Minglan was warm and bright, just like the warm sun rising in winter.
