The little girl of the landlord's house

Chapter 8

It turned out that although the Xie family was rich, they lived in the countryside after all, and all the famous doctors in the city lived in the town. If they wanted to go out to invite a doctor, they had to get the right cards from Mama Zhang first, and then the concierge would arrange it.

Just now, the old aunt and grandma almost suffered an internal injury in Xu's yard, and when she returned to her own yard, she was suffocated, and happened to see that Mrs. Zhao walking in front of her in an unrecognizable manner.The old aunt got angry for a while, so she called the servant girl to drag her out. The old lady Zhao was like a country shrew, and she only scolded the eighteen generations of the old aunt's ancestors.

What do you say that the wife is clearly a kind wife, but some people use chicken feathers as arrows, thinking of sharing the money from the Xie family, blindly flattering the wife, and then using themselves as a knife, so that they can go to the wife and the eldest girl to claim credit .

After hearing this, the old aunt's nostrils were filled with smoke, and she pointed to Aunt Fang and said, "I was blind at the beginning, how did I get such a person in, it can be seen that it is only right for the eldest girl to be kicked out now. "

The old aunt and grandma kicked her out, and she felt that she didn't get any benefit from her trip today. Now that she kicked him out, she simply pretended to be ill and subdued Mrs. Xu, so that Mrs. Xu would know that she was still wholehearted. For Xie's family.As for Xie Yujiao, no matter how powerful she is, so what?When Xie Yujiao gets married three years later, she will be in her early years.She is now the old aunt of Xie's family, and she can stay in Xie's house for a long time, but she does not believe that Xie Yujiao will not marry in the future!

The old aunt immediately asked the maid to go to the front yard to ask Mama Zhang for a doctor, so as to make some noise and let Xu know that she was already sick with anger because of what happened today.

At this time, Mrs. Xu and Aunt Liu went to the Xikua courtyard to guard the spirit of Master Xie. Xie Yujiao in the room hadn't left yet, and Mother Zhang just smiled and said, "Young lady's show of power today scared the old slave half to death. I thought the girl was really angry, and my heart was pounding!"

Xie Yujiao drank the hot tea in her hand and said with a smile: "Mom, you are very cooperative. It can be seen that my mother's heart is like a mirror!" In the past, our mother and daughter had daddy to worry about everything, so naturally we didn't have to worry about everything, even if the rules were a little looser, people like us are not as good as those of the official family, and no one has ever cared about it , but now that my father is gone, if we don't establish a rule, I'm afraid these servants will neglect us, orphans and widows, sooner or later."

Mother Zhang saw that Xie Yujiao was right, she just nodded and said, "Young lady is right, when my wife and I were in Duke An's mansion, there were so many rules we had to follow. The mothers-in-law also have their own errands. If there is a trace of disorder, they will lose their errands, and no one dares to neglect. But when they came to Xie's house, the servants here were not from any family. Even if the family has no money to sell it in, or it is a few old tenants, I don’t know where to teach this rule, and I have spent my boss’s thoughts to make them look like servants.”

Xie Yujiao also knew that it was impossible to train a servant of a local rich man's family to obey the rules like the people in the Hou Men's mansion. She made up her mind to punish Mrs. Zhao. A lazy servant; the second is to show the old aunt some color, so that she doesn't get too complacent, and it's not her turn to take care of the Xie family's affairs.

After drinking the tea, Xie Yujiao was about to get up and leave when she heard a maid from outside come in to reply, saying that the old aunt had sent a maid to invite Mama Zhang's match, and that the old aunt had a chest pain and was going to the town to invite doctor to go.

Before Xie Yujiao could speak, Ziyan came back from the outside, with a smile on her face, she leaned into her ear and whispered: "Girl, I just saw the women in the yard of my aunt and grandmother dragged Mrs. Zhao out. gone."

When Xie Yujiao heard that people had already been kicked out, she only smiled coldly in her heart. After all the people had been kicked out, she acted like this again, because she knew that Mrs. Xu was soft-hearted, and wanted to make Mrs. Xu feel sorry for this matter. .

"Give her the right card and let her go. Just tell her not to think the distance is too far, go directly to the county, invite the doctor from Ren'an Hall, and take the pulse of the old aunt and grandma. There has been a lot of rain in spring recently. Don't worry about it." All the old mistakes have been made."

After hearing this, the servant girl didn't dare to go directly to the concierge to prepare a car to invite someone. This old aunt is familiar with Dr. He from Guang'an Hall in the town. If there is a different doctor, I'm afraid the show will not be able to continue.

After hearing the maid's words, the old aunt gritted her teeth with hatred in her heart, and felt that Xie Yujiao was not easy to fool with this girl, but she thought that if she really invited the doctor from Ren'an Hall, she would have nothing wrong with her, wouldn't she? It's not a joke.

In fact, the old aunt was too worried. She was pissed off by Xie Yu twice a day. Even if the doctor from Ren'an Hall came, he would at least set her up with an exuberant and angry heart. A paste of bitter coptis.

Xie Yujiao ran away for a few days, and it was rare to rest today, so she planned to stay at home and continue to read the books.In the past two days, the spring rain has been rushing, and it is cold and rainy when going out, but it is still comfortable to stay at home.

Magpie soaked Mingqian Yuhua, which she loved to drink, and seeing her jingling the abacus beads, she just smiled and said, "When did the girl learn abacus, why can't I remember?"

Xie Yujiao and Xie Yujiao are about the same age, and they have served by her side since they were seven or eight years old. It can be said that she knows Xie Yujiao's every move clearly, but she doesn't know when she will get the abacus.Xie Yujiao had to thank the Celestial Dynasty for the compulsory education at this moment. Although most of the things she learned were useless in the end, she didn't expect that there was such an abacus, but it would be useful in ancient times.

"It's called learning without a teacher. Your girl is so smart, but she just dials a few abacus beads. How can it be difficult to beat me?" Xie Yujiao said quite complacently. God, the old aunt and grandma said now that her heart doesn't hurt anymore, and that it's raining outside, so she won't bother anyone, just take out the prepared pills and take two, and it will be fine."

Xie Yujiao heard this, and said solemnly: "It's rare for her to be so considerate of servants!"

As soon as this was said, the two maids burst out laughing.

Xie Yujiao calmed down and looked at the account book again. The beads in the abacus were crackling, and the rain outside was also crackling. Through the sound of the rain, Xie Yujiao could hear someone's hurried footsteps in the rain.

Hearing this voice in this heavy rainy day is also very disturbing. Xie Yujiao glanced over, and the magpie understood what she was thinking. He only opened the window and saw a woman with an umbrella coming from the narrow passage, and entered the study room. Next to the chashou veranda.

The magpie rushed to meet her, and saw that it was Mrs. Zheng who was on duty at the second gate, and asked, "What's wrong with Mrs. Zheng, she's walking so fast on a rainy day, and the girl is reading the account book in the study! She's upset."

When Mrs. Zheng heard Magpie say that Xie Yujiao was in the study, she hurriedly smiled and said, "I didn't know the girl was there, but someone from Aunt Shen's family came to pass the news that her brother was beaten to death outside, and now Lying at home, I don’t know if I can be saved.”

Magpie was startled when he heard the words, Aunt Shen's elder brother was a good fighter in their Xie's house, but Shen's parents were not in good health, and there were a few brothers in the family, so relying on his strength , went out to work hard, and usually rarely heard of coming back, now that it's so easy to come back, is he going to die?Magpie only felt his heart beating violently, so he hurriedly asked Mrs. Zheng to pass the message in the backyard, while he went back to the study and told Mrs. Zheng what she said to Xie Yujiao.

Xie Yujiao felt numb to people who would die at any time in ancient times. According to her body's memory, Master Xie had an occasional cold at the beginning, and it never recovered. In the end, phlegm blocked the windpipe and died.Xie Yujiao has a deep understanding of the ancient times when a single cold could kill someone: the world is impermanent.

However, she still couldn't bear to hear others say that a good person is going to die, so she just said: "Go to Aunt Shen's side to have a look, and ask someone to send a car to take her back, and go to the accountant to pay five taels of silver, please ask someone The mother-in-law will follow, and invite another doctor to her house, don't think it's too far away, go to Ren'an Hall to invite him, if this person can be brought back, I'm afraid he won't be able to die for a while."

The magpie nodded vigorously, and when she ran out with an umbrella, she saw that Aunt Shen had come out with Mrs. Zheng, but when she reached the door, she stopped again, frowned, and said, "I have hot filial piety on my body right now. If I go back, I'm afraid it will be even worse, and there is no guarantee that I won't run into something, Mom, take this money out for me, and ask the family to invite a good doctor to come and fix it for my brother!"

When Zheng's mother heard this, she was dumbfounded. What Aunt Shen said was indeed reasonable. It is indeed a taboo to go to other people's homes in this hot filial piety. It's just that the person who came to spread the word said it, and I don't know if I can live. If he doesn't go out, won't he even be able to see her for the last time?
"What should I say? If you don't want to go back, then I can only help you go back like this. If your brother is gone, don't worry, I didn't remind you."

After hearing this, the magpie just said: "If my aunt can't go, you can go with Madam Zheng. The girl is about to send someone to invite the doctor of Ren'an Hall, so you go with her. First, go to the accountant to pay five taels of silver. I invited the doctor to come down and leave it to my aunt's family."

That Mrs. Zheng usually only walks outside the second door, but now she listened to the magpie's order, she just nodded her head in agreement, and said with a smile: "Please don't worry, girl, I will definitely take care of this matter."

Aunt Shen was grateful in her heart, and only asked Mrs. Zheng to take a few words back, and she stood on the porch and kept crying.Xie Yujiao looked at this girl who was only four or five years older than herself through the window, and she felt a bit of sympathy in her heart.
