Gu Qingling felt that her power was weak. She could not change this era, nor could she change the current situation of these servants. The only thing she could do was to start from her own side, try to be "nicer" to them, and let them live like one person.
Of course, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, there are still "rules" for servants.
As long as she obeys the rules, she can pretend she doesn't see anything else.
In April, the weather gets warmer.
The clothes on my body are a little thinner than before.
A few days in advance, Mrs. Yao and Mrs. Yao had prepared the clothes, examination baskets and other items for Uncle Yao and Yao Anhong to take the government examination. The food for the government examination was also selected and practiced in advance.
Yes, I just revisited it in the past few days to prevent accidents.
During the previous county examination, they entered the venue one day in advance, took the exam the next day, and came out after finishing the exam; but the government exam was different. After entering, they took the exam for three days in a row, and only after completing all the exams, they
Release it.
Therefore, it is a test for both the hostess in charge of logistics and Uncle Yao and Yao Anhong who are about to enter the examination room.
If the logistics are not done well, Uncle Yao and Yao Anhong will have to suffer a little more when they get to the examination room. If one is not good, both of them can come back lying down; if the logistics preparations are done well, they will be more comfortable in the examination room.
, even if you can't get a good result in the exam, at least you will be safe.
"This is herbal tea. Make some with hot water every night before going to bed. Drink it before going to bed. If you feel uncomfortable, just make an extra cup and drink it." Gu Qingling put the tea powder poured from the spiritual spring into the test basket.
He said earnestly, "You two uncles and nephews are about to enter the examination room. Remember, the results of the examination are not important. What is important is that you two can come back safely. Do you understand?"
During the last county exam, Gu Qingling didn't prepare such a thing, but this time Gu Qingling prepared it for the government exam. Uncle Yao's heart surged: "I understand, mother, don't worry, we will come back safely."
"The same goes for my grandson, please rest assured, old lady." When they were preparing for the exam, everyone hoped that they could get good grades, but before setting off, the old lady asked them to put their health first, Yao Anhong sighed in his heart.
Endless.
Because he knew that maybe the old lady wanted him and his uncle to get good grades, but for the old lady, "returning safely" was more important than good grades.
How lucky was he to be born into such a family?
Perhaps, each of them has his own selfishness and what he wants, but in front of the word "peace", everything can be compromised.
When the carriage arrived outside the examination room, it was stopped by the government officials and prevented it from getting any closer.
Gu Qingling could only get off the carriage and watch Uncle Yao, uncle Yao Anhong and nephew walking inside.
Compared with the county examination, there are not many fewer people in the prefecture examination. After all, during the previous county examination, the people gathered were still based on "county", but now it has been changed to "prefecture". The number of people has not decreased, but
The competitors taking the exam have become stronger.
Gu Qingling didn't know whether there would be good news between them.
If there is, both them and the Yao family can breathe a sigh of relief; if not, the pressure on them will only be greater next year.
Because she handed it over to Mrs. Yao, Mrs. Yao's "business" will not wait for anyone. No matter what their results are, they will get bigger and bigger. And at this time, if the Yao family does not stand up on their own, they will have a big thick leg.
, they can only use their interests to hug the lap of others.
There is a saying that runs on mountains and water.
After all, hugging someone else's thigh is not as reliable as your own. If the other person has any evil intentions, even if the Yao family does nothing, they still won't be able to get away with it.
For example, the Ma family in Yunyang City would board the Zhennan King's boat in the first place. Didn't they just want to have a thick thigh to hug?
But holding on to it, King Zhennan was very ambitious, and eventually the ship was destroyed and everyone died.
Not to mention that the Ma family in Yunyang City is not clean, even if they are clean, Emperor Mingguang will deal with all of them in order to "cut the grass and root out" when dealing with the Zhennan King lineage.
Gu Qingling knew without asking that not everyone in the Zhennan King incident "deserved it", and there must be some who were innocently implicated.
It's a pity that in the face of power, no matter how innocent you are, it's useless.
Gu Qingling was distracted when Yao Erye came over and said, "Mom, they have all gone in. Send one person here to watch. The rest of us can go back first. It's not a big deal for us to wait here. As soon as they go in
, it will take three days to come out.”
"Well, come back!" Gu Qingling responded.
After receiving her permission, Mr. Yao immediately turned around with a smile and went to help Mrs. Yao. The weather had turned warm, but Mrs. Yao still wore a lot of clothes and had a blanket draped over her body, making her look "bloated".
Mr. Yao was particularly careful when helping her.
Gu Qingling's mind flashed, and she always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure out what was wrong for a while.
Not to mention that Gu Qingling felt something was wrong, even Mrs. Yao felt strange and looked at Mrs. Yao several times. Especially the nanny who was serving Mrs. Yao, her eyes almost froze. After she realized what she was doing, she quickly followed Mrs. Yao to the bed.
carriage.
"Madam, I think there is something wrong with the second lady."
"What's wrong?"
Nanny lowered her head, leaned closer, and said, "The Second Madam is much more lively than before, and it feels as if she is...happy."
Mrs. Yao's eyes widened and she turned her head in shock: "What did you say?!"
"I'm not sure, but I think it looks a bit like it. When my wife was pregnant with Miss Xin, she was like that for a while..."
thump--
thump--
Mrs. Yao's heart skipped a beat.
Really?
Are the second siblings really pregnant?!
Oh my God, she actually has good news. Does this mean that the antidote given by the old lady is effective?
Mrs. Yao tightened the handkerchief in her hand, thinking of herself.
If the antidote given by the old lady is effective, and she is in the "best period of pregnancy" mentioned by the old lady, does that mean that she really has a chance to give birth to a son and a half for Uncle Yao?
female?
At this time, Mrs. Yao was very glad that she "obeyed" the old lady's arrangement and sent away the two maids who were good at giving birth.
Otherwise, according to her arrangement, their eldest family will definitely give birth to a bastard.
She didn't give birth to herself, but she gave birth to a bunch of bastards, and her second wife gave birth to bastards one after another...
Ah!
Isn't this a joke?
"Please arrange for someone to check and see how long it has been since the second lady changed her bath." Mrs. Yao suppressed her excitement and gave the nanny a task.
She didn't think about it before, so no one paid attention to the change of bathing. But now that Mrs. Yao Er is pregnant, the first thing she should do is to stop "changing of bathing".
As long as she confirms this, she can determine whether Mrs. Yao Er is really pregnant.
As for why Mrs. Yao Er wanted to conceal this matter...
Mrs. Yao thought about it and made some guesses.
Either Mrs. Yao Er saw the big house's joke; or Mrs. Yao Er was afraid that she would be jealous of her, so she would attack her and guard against her.
No matter which one it is, Mrs. Yao knows that she and Mrs. Yao only seem to be "harmony" on the surface, but in fact there are "overt and covert struggles" between them that have never stopped.
