Chapter 86: Difficult
"It's so bitter."
Jiang Chan looked at the empty medicine bowl and complained with a slight frown.
Cui smiled, "Second lady, although this medicine is bitter, it is a bitter medicine." ”
Looking at Cuiwei's appearance, Jiang Chan smiled helplessly, "Flim tongue." ”
"The second lady has a good reputation."
Emerald fine-tuned the leather road.
Chen Xiaomei on the side pinched her eyebrows and urged Jiang Chan to say.
"You still need to rest, remember, don't exercise vigorously, and don't eat those oily foods."
She looked at Jiang Chan's weak appearance and sighed, "Your body, don't make any more trouble." ”
After that, Chen Xiaomei sat down next to Jiang Chan and gently held Jiang Chan's hand.
Jiang Chan's hands were white and tender, but at the same time, her hands were also cold.
Touching her hand, Chen Xiaomei couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
"Even if you don't think about yourself, think about the child in this womb, don't mess around like this anymore."
Jiang Chan raised her hand and touched Chen Xiaomei's hair, and then looked at Cuiwei, her heart warmed.
"It's hard work for you."
If it weren't for Cuiwei and Chen Xiaomei being by his side all the time, how could he be so relieved?
Outside the door.
Mo has been silently holding his sword in both hands, standing outside the door and guarding the door.
Inadvertently, he listened to all that was being said in the room.
He clutched the saber at his chest and straightened up no longer leaning against the wall behind him.
He beckoned to the side, and a man in black appeared beside him.
"Go, tell the prince, Miss Jiang Chan is fine now."
The man in black nodded, and immediately disappeared here.
Mo turned his head and took a deep look at the door, before continuing to lean aside, waiting for the two people in the room to come out.
Meanwhile.
The Hou Mansion is busy up and down, and the reason why they are busy is precisely because the old lady's birthday needs to be prepared.
At the same time, this also made the servants of the Hou Mansion suspicious.
Obviously, it has been a long time since the wages have been paid, and as they said, the Hou Mansion has no money.
But right now, the old lady's birthday is being held with colorful lights?
"You say, our Hou Mansion, is it really no money, or fake no money."
A servant with a broom in his hand whispered to the man beside him.
"Shhh, it's better to talk less about this matter of the Hou Mansion."
The man said.
But the little guy is still unhappy, "I still have to say what I have to say, anyway, there is no one at the moment." ”
"The old lady's birthday can be held in this Hou Mansion, why has our wages been delayed for so long?"
The little guy said indignantly: "I think it's just deliberately not paying us wages!" ”
"Shhhh I can't say that. ”
The man panicked.
As soon as the two finished speaking, the big room followed the maid and walked out from the side.
She apparently didn't hear the two men talking, all she saw was that the two were lazy and didn't work.
"What are you talking about, don't you hurry up and sweep it, delay the old lady's birthday tomorrow, can you afford it?"
"Yes, yes, yes."
The two hurriedly nodded in response.
Dafang snorted and left with the maid beside him.
After watching the group leave, the two looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.
The entire Hou Mansion went up and down, although it was preparing for the old lady's birthday, but the owner of this birthday was not in the Hou Mansion, but came to find Zhao Chengzhou.
"Zhou'er, this birthday requires a lot of silver taels, and now the silver taels in the house are not enough, what can I do."
The old lady frowned, a little anxious.
She began to regret it in her heart.
Why do you have to celebrate this birthday?
I'm afraid that after this birthday is held, Jiang Chan will not appear at that time, and she will be able to ask for her dowry back.
The days ahead...
What to do!
The old lady repented.
But Zhao Chengzhou is confident.
He shook the old lady's hand and comforted, "Mother, you can rest assured." ”
"This birthday is open, then Jiang Chan will definitely appear, not to mention the dowry, even Jiang Chan will have to go back to the Hou Mansion obediently."
Listening to Zhao Chengzhou's words, the old lady sighed.
"That boat, do you have a way to do this silver tael right now?"
Way?
Zhao Chengzhou's eyes lit up, "Mother, don't you usually have dealings with those sisters in other mansions?" ”
"Now that you are in trouble and need silver taels, borrow them from them, and they won't refuse."
When the words fell, the old lady's face turned dark.
"Zhou'er, we are the Hou Mansion, wouldn't we lose the face of the Hou Mansion by going out to borrow money?"
Zhao Chengzhou patted the old lady's hand lightly and continued to persuade.
"Mother, all this is for the days to come."
He poured a cup of tea for the old lady, "After this matter is completed, everything that is lost will be owed." ”
"Isn't it just that Jiang Chan is repaid, anyway, Jiang Chan owes it to the Hou Mansion."
Hearing Zhao Chengzhou say this, the old lady loosened her frown.
"Then follow what you said."
Zhao Chengzhou listened to this and nodded.
……
Northwest.
"Lord Wang, this trip is bothering you to take your people to the north, and I will take my people from here to the south."
General He said respectfully.
Xie Jinghuai put one hand behind his back, and the other hand hung down to his side.
He nodded, and after General He gave up, he left with his own people.
After walking for a while, the soldiers beside General He came over and asked General He.
"General, the north is the place where the mob is most frequented, how do you get the regent to go?"
And General He snorted, "What about the prince, since he is a person sent from above, he has to do something!" ”
As the words fell, he glared at the soldier.
"If you have, don't talk nonsense, you know?"
The soldier bowed his head and nodded tremblingly.
"Understood."
General He nodded, "Let's go." ”
On Xie Jinghuai's side, he walked, and after only a few steps, he found that there were many homeless people on the side of the road.
The guard walked up and reminded Xie Jinghuai.
"Lord Wang, there is something wrong with this road."
Even if he didn't need to be reminded by the guards, Xie Jinghuai could see it.
The further you go down this road, the more displaced people there become.
Where riots occur, the more likely they are to happen on this road.
"Lord Wang, then General He..."
The guards stopped talking.
Xie Jinghuai raised his hand, "Needless to say, stop the riot first." ”
"Yes!"
The guards gave up.
After a while, a group of people suddenly ran frantically in the direction of Xie Jinghuai.
"Lord be careful!"
The guards protected Xie Jinghuai behind him.
And Xie Jinghuai squinted slightly, seeing that although those people were homeless, they all had certain weapons in their hands.
"Officers and soldiers?"
At the head was a big man, who was sloppy and had a stick in his hand.
"What about the officers and soldiers, what about the food, hand it over!"
As the words fell, the people behind him echoed him and shouted.
"Hand it over! Hand it over! ”
"Lord Wang..."
The guards looked at Xie Jinghuai with some embarrassment.
