A good wife and a good mother

Chapter 193 Washing Spring Inn (4)
Jin Lan followed Jin Zi's gaze, and she saw a woman sitting under a tree, looking sideways to the west. At this time, the golden light of the rising sun sprinkled bits of gold on her body through the wide sycamore leaves.It was the first time for Jin Lan to see a woman sitting there, and it made people feel that the years were peaceful.

"What are you looking at?" Several other people also looked under the sycamore tree.

Jin Huang shouted: "Isn't this here with the woman who was looking for an errand just now?" At this moment, Modai suddenly turned to look towards the inn. My heart was beating wildly with fright, "Ah, she saw me, she saw me!"

Jin Bai curled his lips and said, "Young master, you're getting carried away with your complacency, haven't you seen that girl's eyes are problematic?"

Hearing what Jin Bai said, the others realized that there seemed to be something wrong with Mo Dai's eyes. They stared at one place for a long time, completely ignoring the passers-by around them. At this time, an old woman in her 50s walked by. Sitting next to her and talking to her, she responded with a smile, but her eyes didn't look at people, she seemed to be blind.

"Tsk, what a pity!" Jin Zi clicked her tongue.

"Who do you say is a pity?"

Nie Jinduo, the proprietress of Xiquan Inn, suddenly walked over with a smile, and the six men in red, yellow, white, green, blue, and purple couldn't help being startled, and immediately stood by the door, bowing to her in unison: "My lord! "

"Okay, let's attract guests well, the magistrate's mother is coming to our inn to take a bath today, please cheer me up!"

"Yes, my lord wife!" The six men bowed and saluted again, with a humble and submissive expression.

"Well." Nie Jinduo was very impressed by the titles of the gentlemen, and then smiled to Xiao behind him, "You can work as a handyman in this inn for the time being, but the first day is the probation day and there is no wages. If you pass today's probation , then from tomorrow onwards, you can come to this inn to work, and the salary is one tael of silver per month, without a break, how about it?"

"Sure, thank you Madam Boss, by the way, I have a friend..." Xiao Xiao just wanted to say that Mo Dai also wanted to find a job here, when he suddenly saw an old woman walking over with Mo Dai, Xiao Xiao hurried over to help her. Holding on to Modai, she whispered, "Hey, why did you get pestered by an old woman?"

At this time, the old woman suddenly glared at Xiao Xiao angrily: "Young man, you are not quiet enough, old woman, I can hear you clearly!"

Xiao Xiao suddenly giggled awkwardly: "Grandma, don't be angry, I'm just worried about Modai, her eyes can't see, I'm afraid she will be cheated!"

"Hmph! Didn't you leave her under that big tree just to be deceived?" The old woman said mercilessly.

Only then did Xiao Xiao realize what he had done, so he slapped himself twice, grabbed Mo Dai's hand and said: "Mo Dai, I was wrong, my father is a pig's brain, and he doesn't even have this point Never thought of it!"

"You girl is a little bit self-aware!" The old woman continued to sarcastically.

Xiao Xiao had a bitter face, and the joy of finding a job was also depressed. Modai patted her hand and said with a smile: "Do you think I'm such an easy person to be deceived?"

Xiao Xiao looked at her, hesitantly said: "It looks like it!"

The corners of Mo Dai's mouth twitched, she ignored Xiao Xiao, and said directly to the old woman: "Old woman, let's go in and soak in the natural hot spring water together, and I'll give you a massage later, it will surely relieve your back pain !"

"Really?"

"Try it, you can't lose anything?"

"Okay, I'll give it a try! My waist usually hurts a little, but it hurts badly when it's cold and rainy. It's better now that it's hot, but it hurts a little after walking so far today. It's gone! Where's the little second lady? Lead the way!" The old woman yelled, her voice was resonant.

Seeing Mo Dai and the old lady coming in, the six ministers of Nie Jinduo immediately bowed and saluted: "Welcome to Xiquan Inn!"

Nie Jinduo called the second lady to lead Mo Dai and the old woman towards the hot spring pool, while Xiao Xiao was assigned to chop firewood.

Nie Jinduo glanced at the door again at this time, wondering in his heart, the county magistrate had clearly known to her that her mother would come to take a bath this morning, so how could he not come now?

According to the county magistrate, her old mother usually lives in seclusion and has a strange temper. She often scolds her loudly, and she is also very afraid of her old mother, and never dares to speak loudly in front of her old mother.But this time, the county magistrate's old lady suddenly said that she wanted to come to the hot spring, and she didn't allow the magistrate to follow, she really was a weird old woman!
In this room, Modai and the old woman soaked in the natural hot spring water together, they both let out a comfortable sigh, and then burst out laughing.

It was still early today, so she was the only one in the hot spring pool.There are also some flowers and plants planted by the hot spring of Xiquan Inn. On the path paved with bluestones, octopus emerges from the gaps in the bluestone bricks. Looking around, it is full of wildness.

The old woman rested her arms on the edge of the pool, resting her head on a piece of bluestone, glanced at Modai and said: "Girl, do you really plan to invite this old woman to take a bath in the hot spring today?"

"Yeah, didn't you agree just now? Why, old lady, have you gone back on your word?" Modai laughed.

"Tch! Someone invited me to soak in the hot springs. Why should I regret it? But you girl, don't you want to regret it? After all, it costs a tael of silver for a dip!"

"I won't regret it, and I don't want to regret it! Old woman, just like what you said when you took the initiative to talk to me, you only talked to me because you looked at me pleasingly, and I only responded to you after listening to your voice. Talk to me. You have a loud and clear voice, and your words are very majestic. If you can help me spread the word in Shuiquan Town, my business will be popular!"

Hearing this, the old woman laughed loudly: "You are a funny girl, if you tell the truth, aren't you afraid that the old man will trip you up behind your back?"

"I'm poor and white, so I have nothing to be afraid of. Besides, I believe my ears. Old lady, you are not that kind of person!"

"You girl has a sweet mouth and can coax people. If Laoshen's daughter is half as caring as you, Laoshen won't get angry just looking at her! Well, Laoshen will try your massage today. If it really works, Laoshen I will definitely promote it for you and make your business a hit!"

"Thank you, old lady!"

Here, Xiao Xiao is chopping firewood hard in the backyard of Xiquan Inn, chopping pile after pile, endlessly.

At this time, a little mistress came over with a towel in a large wooden basin, and when she saw Xiao who was chopping firewood, she smiled and said: "New here, wash this basin of handkerchief, wash it quickly, and wash it clean later. There are too many guests to use!"

Xiao Xiao frowned: "But I haven't finished chopping the firewood yet!"

The little Erniang glanced sideways at the pile of logs piled up like a hill behind Xiao Xiao, and she smiled bluntly: "I don't care if you finish chopping, anyway, that's what the proprietress ordered!" After finishing speaking, she turned around and walked away. Whistling while walking.
