The Ups and Downs of Mrs. Yipin

Chapter 9
Because Lord Shangshu is ill, he doesn’t know what it means to other people. Anyway, Fang Xiuyi means that the sky is about to fall, not because of the possibility that the employer will disappear, but because of the panic of fate.

From the moment he learned that Lord Shangshu was ill, Fang Xiuyi put all his energy into it, and was more serious than taking care of the two children.People who are sick should eat more digestible food. What is easy to digest is pasta.Fang Xiuyi thought of all kinds of pastries, such as buns, fried buns, dumplings, steamed dumplings, pan-fried dumplings, steamed buns, flower rolls, all kinds of cakes, as well as all kinds of porridge and noodles, and even made pimple soup. As long as she can think of it, she cooks everything, adds some rice occasionally, and cooks soup every day. Master Shangshu has been ill for half a month, and Fang Xiuyi hardly cooked the same meal for half a month, thinking too much. , she saw a few more white hairs on the sideburns.She is not only trying to get her employer back, but also trying to change her luck, to see if it was bad luck, or whether she can come to life now?

Finally, half a month later, Lord Shangshu recovered from his illness. He heard from Sandong that he could eat two bowls of rice for one meal, and he could go to court again.Hearing this, Fang Xiu fell limply onto the stool. It seemed that this time she ran a step faster than Meishen. Was it because the Master Shang Shu gave her a chance because of his hard life?Thinking of this, Fang Xiuyi took care of Shang Shu's diet even more.

The Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and the weather is starting to heat up. Fang Xiu started to make ice porridge, but she was worried that Mr. Shang Shu was just recovering from a serious illness, so she couldn't eat too much of this ice porridge, so she made a small bowl every time.Unexpectedly, Master Shang Shu thought it was too little, so he asked San Dong to send a message directly to make a big bowl.But Fang Xiuyi didn't dare to do so much, and just made about two small bowls.Lord Shangshu, you don't cherish your body, but I love yours!
On the Dragon Boat Festival, Master Shangshu gave Fang Xiuyi half a day off to celebrate the festival, and he went to the banquet in the evening without her calling.Fang Xiuyi happily spent a happy Dragon Boat Festival with her children, told the children the story of the Dragon Boat Festival, and ate the rice dumplings she made.The children laughed happily.

"Mother, look!" Fei Yu showed Fang Xiu the stone.

The stone has been polished enough to be carved, "What are you going to carve, baby?"

Fei Yu looked at Siyuan and said: "I discussed with my brother, I plan to engrave a birthday character on this stone and give it to Master Shangshu."

Fang Xiu paused, "Why did you give it to him?"

"It's like this, mother. Over the past few months, although Lord Shangshu didn't deliberately treat us well, his behavior has also given us a lot of favors. We have also inquired, and there are almost no cases like ours. We haven’t met Lord Shangshu, but Mother said that if you receive favors from others, you should repay them with springs. Mother, I cook delicious food for Lord Shangshu every day. We don’t know what to do, so my brother and I discussed, I will write a birthday character, my brother will carve it, and then give it to Mr. Shang Shu, it is not a precious thing, but it is also our heart." Siyuan said in a straight voice, and Fei Yu nodded beside him.

"What are you guys doing? Ah? Thinking about these things, I never asked, how is your homework? It's useless to think about all these things." Fang Xiuyi couldn't laugh or cry, she never thought that these two little ones still had such things. A thought.

"It's useful, why is it useless? You know how to repay your kindness. You don't have to worry about homework. What are you afraid of when you have a brother?" Fei Yu chuckled.

"With your brother here, you won't work hard? Don't make your brother work too hard, you understand?" Fang Xiuyi was always worried that after overuse, the gods would withdraw Siyuan's talent or punish her. Yes, she couldn't help but not believe in these things.

"Mother, don't worry, my brother is very good, I don't need to worry too much." Siyuan comforted his mother.

"Mother, brother listens to you, and dare not let people know that he has a photographic memory. Just like this, brother's progress is faster than others. You don't know, the teacher is already teaching brother alone."

Fang Xiu was startled, "When did this happen? Why didn't you tell me?" She was really afraid of being jealous.

"Mother, don't worry, the teacher seems to know everything. He thinks the same as you. The teacher said that my health is not good. Since I am his student, he has to be responsible. That's why I teach alone. No one else has any doubts. .”

"What brother said is true, so we didn't tell you. Mom—" Fei Yu rubbed her arms around Fang Xiuyi's neck, she knew very well how to make her mother soften her heart.

Sure enough, as soon as Fang Xiu heard Fei Yu's call, she couldn't bear to blame them. "Okay, okay, I'm really relieved that you are all grown up. In this case, Siyuan, you must not disappoint the teacher's teachings."

"I see, mother."

It seems that the bad luck is really over, because within a few days, Master Shangshu was rewarded by the emperor, saying that he has done very well in the Ministry of Rites in the past few years, so that people in the world can be courteous, and everyone is good at rituals and music. The incident of trespass happened, so the emperor transferred Lord Shangshu.Lord Shangshu used to be the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, but now he is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials!Although they are both Shangshu and their grades have not changed, even Fang Xiuyi, who is not clear about these things, knows that this is actually a promotion.The Ministry of Officials is in charge of so many officials. Aren't all those who are evaluated and promoted belong to the Ministry of Officials?From the emperor's rewards to congratulatory gifts and filial piety in Shangshu Mansion in those few days, Fang Xiuyi heard that there was no interruption for ten days.

For Fang Xiuyi, the change of Master Shangshu's position is not a major event, but the reward is a major event.Because the lord was promoted and happy, everyone in the house got an extra month's salary, others might only have one tael, but Fang Xiuyi was different, she could get four taels more, isn't that a big deal?She took the reward and made two more sets of clothes for the children. It was hot and it was time to wear summer clothes.This kind of thing made Feiyu more passionate to complete the sculpture.

"Mother, look!" Fei Yu showed Fang Xiu the black stone.

The one-foot-square stone is carved into a character about longevity about one foot high, and the bottom is an integrated tray, which can be used as an ornament.This character "Shou" is very elegantly written, she seems to have never seen Siyuan write such a character.

"You wrote this word, Siyuan?"

"I haven't practiced it before. I asked the teacher to write it, and I copied it. It looks good, but I don't have the character of the teacher." Siyuan said with regret.

"Don't underestimate yourself, I think it's very good, very elegant, and unique. Hey, there are words on the back." Fang Xiuyi turned it over and saw a few words written on the back, "I wish you a happy birthday, every year there is today, There is no signature in "every year has the present". These two guys are quite meticulous and know how to avoid taboos. This word is Siyuan's character, and it is correct. "Hehe, I thought you were going to write a poem." This is too similar to the previous life Happy birthday.

"I'm not good at composing poems. I wrote this sentence because I used other people's words without sincerity." Siyuan was a little embarrassed.

"Well, it's not bad, it's good. Come on, Fei Yu, let mother see your claws." Carving such a big thing, how can it not hurt your hands, but the children are avoiding her.

Fei Yu stretched out his hands hesitantly, because the children worked with Fang Xiuyi all the year round, and their hands were not as delicate and smooth as those of those wealthy families. There were several cuts on Fei Yu's fingers, and a thin layer of calluses on the palms. Fang Xiuyi looked at Siyuan's hands again, they were similar, the skin on the hands was a bit rough, and calluses appeared on the palms of the hands.Siyuan thought that Fei Yu was a girl, so as long as he was around, he would never let Fei Yu do anything about family matters, such as boiling water and cooking food.Fang Xiuyi lovingly put her two little hands on her face.

"My darlings."
