At that sound, Mrs. Yao burst into tears. She didn't know what she was crying about.
Maybe it's because I'm too happy, maybe...
Gu Qingling didn't know that while she was waiting for each house to give birth to legitimate sons and daughters, someone in the eldest house had already begun to discuss taking concubines and giving birth to a bunch of concubines and concubines for her.
If she knew, I wonder if she would regret curing her infertility to Uncle Yao and Mrs. Yao?
In fact, it was not that the spiritual spring given by Gu Qingling did not work, but that Mrs. Yao's constitution was too weak. Gu Qingling did not dare to cure Mrs. Yao's problem all at once, so he could only raise her carefully and let her "slowly"
good.
But who knows, because it’s too “slow”, the big house won’t be able to wait.
If what happened to Yao Liuye hadn't happened, maybe Dafang could still afford to wait, but...
well!
Sometimes, time, destiny.
As the first winter snow fell, classes at Yao Academy had already stopped.
Yao Anhong, Yao Anxin, Yao Anyi, and Yao Anling had returned to their respective yards long ago, doing their winter vacation homework and taking a nap.
The winter in Jinling is a little different from that in the capital. The capital is dry and cold, while Jinling is damp and cold. The Yao family who came from the capital were not used to it and suffered several colds and fevers.
Fortunately, the resident doctor's home was in Jinling. He came to the door in time and prescribed some medicine, and everyone was fine.
The eldest maid was still making medicine in the spring, and it turned out that it was not the old lady Gu Qingling who was ill, but the housekeeper, Chen Ma. Maybe she was old, and she didn't just take the medicine and get better like other little girls. She had met
Effective, but still improving.
When Gu Qingling saw that Chen's mother was sick, she asked her to go back to the house to rest and come back to work when she was well.
It stands to reason that Mother Chen has a family of her own, so she can just boil the medicine for her family to take. However, because many people in the family have fallen ill, many of the tasks have been shared with others. Mother Chen’s children do not have time. This is
Firstly; secondly, Gu Qingling was also worried that problems would arise if each one was in charge, so he took the courtyard as a unit and boiled medicine together.
It just so happened that the matters of brewing medicine and caring for patients in the old lady's courtyard fell to spring.
As the popular person in front of the old lady, Chun Chun, the eldest maid, is very happy to take on this kind of "thankful" job. One can show her face in front of the old lady Gu Qingling, and the other, she can also win the favor of others.
Since there are three other maids around the old lady, and a lot of authority in her hands has been divided, the eldest maid Chunchun is also worried that she will be pushed down by others, and she is eager to have more opportunities to show her face.
After finishing the medicine and asking everyone to divide it and eat it, someone came over to report that Zhao Ma from Yao Liuye's courtyard was here.
"What's the matter with her coming here at this time?"
"It seems that Mr. Yao Liu is ill."
The eldest maid Qian Qian's heart sank and she went into the room to give a report to Gu Qingling.
After a while, someone came out and asked Ma Zhao to come in.
Mother Zhao knelt on the ground with a plop: "Old lady, when I woke up this morning, I found that Mr. Liu hadn't gotten up. Unexpectedly, I opened the door and saw that he actually had a high fever and was no longer awake..."
"What?!" Gu Qingling was surprised, "Wasn't he fine before? And I told you a long time ago to pay attention. Now the weather has changed. Many people from the capital are sick. Before Liu Ye
I have also punished you, and my body is not as strong as usual. You must be careful..."
"I don't know. Before I left last night, Mr. Liu was fine. He drank a bowl of hot soup before going to bed. When I went out, I also checked the windows and the charcoal fire in the house."
"Where is the maid in his house?"
"Being... kicked out..." Thinking of what happened last night, the housekeeper, Zhao Ma, hesitated.
"Kicked out? Why?"
Mother Zhao glanced at the young maids in the room.
Gu Qingling waved them away and motioned for Zhao's mother to continue.
Zhao's mother lowered her head, not daring to look at Gu Qingling's face, and whispered: "Sixth Master saw that the maid was pretty and wanted to sleep with that maid, but the maid didn't agree, so he was kicked out."
What she didn't say was that Mr. Yao Liu made harsh words at that time, saying that he was sleeping even if he slept, and sleeping even if he didn't sleep. One day, that maid would fall into his hands.
Zhao Ma became the housekeeper of Yao Liuye's courtyard, and was not happy to see that maid being abused like this. She was also planning to find an excuse to transfer her to another courtyard in the next few days.
Unexpectedly, Yao Liuye became "sick" before he was transferred to the hospital.
"Sleeping maid?!" Gu Qingling was surprised at first, but thinking of Yao Liuye's age, she quickly reacted.
In the memory of the original owner, Master Yao Liu naturally had the idea of a maidservant, but when he moved to Yunyang City, all the maidservants beside Uncle Yao and Second Master Yao were sold, not to mention
Yao Liuye's side.
Later, when Gu Qingling reorganized his servants, he replaced another batch. After such a big blood exchange, they were all replaced.
When they arrived in Jinling, Gu Qingling and Mrs. Yao had arranged the arrangement, and the two aunts were "assigned" again. Who would think of arranging a maid for Yao Liuye's roommate?
No, this guy...
After having enough food and clothing, I finally couldn't hold it any longer and was ready to make a move.
"He...didn't before?" What Gu Qingling asked was, since coming to Jinling, Master Yao Liu has not hooked up with a maid?
Zhao Ma shook her head: "I didn't know this before. Anyway, I haven't seen the maid since I entered the Sixth Master's yard. Do you want the old lady to make arrangements for the Sixth Master? Even if you want to make arrangements, I'm afraid you have to wait until the Sixth Master gets sick.
After he recovers, Mr. Liu is ill now, so I'm afraid he won't be able to use it..."
Mother Zhao knew the rules of the wealthy family and was worried that the old lady would call back the maid who refused, so she thought it would be better to test it carefully.
If you can help, do so. If you can't help...
Then just forget it.
"Well, it's really inappropriate for him to be sick now. Let's wait until... next spring." Gu Qingling complained in her heart: Arrange a woolen yarn, and wait until next spring. Yao Liuye doesn't know what arrangements he will make.
That guy was really a helpless Adou. After he and Yao Anxin were punished for fighting with each other, he admitted that he was "wrong", but he directly resented those younger students and often caused trouble for them in class.
Originally, Gu Qingling wanted to deal with it directly, but after thinking about it, he still kept Yao Liuye and planned to use him to train a few kids.
Yao Liuye is stupider, he has everything written on his face, and is easier to deal with. If they can't even "conquer" Yao Liuye, what will they do when they go outside and meet more complicated people?
Gu Qingling paused for a moment and said, "Let the doctor take a look at Mr. Liu later. It's time to take the medicine. Take care of him carefully and don't burn him to death."
"Yes, old lady."
…
With the approval of the old lady Gu Qingling, the doctor stationed in the mansion quickly went to Yao Liuye's yard.
This time, Yao Liuye's fever was really serious, and he was all confused. The reason for his illness was the cold at night.
Later, upon investigation, we found out that he really had caught a cold, because the charcoal fire in Yao Liuye's house had been extinguished at some point, and it had not been burning for long at all.
In other words, not long after Zhao Ma left yesterday, the newly added charcoal fire in Yao Liuye's house was extinguished.
