The Qing family is mainly engaged in the rice and grain business. Every once in a while, Master Qing will go out to purchase grain in some surrounding cities and villages. Due to the recent tax increase on water transportation, Master Qing has to go further this time to purchase grain.
Cheaper food to reduce losses caused by taxes.
This trip lasted for more than half a month.
After hearing the news that he was going back home, the rooms in the backyard were all busy early. The third and fourth aunts even asked the maids to help them dress up early in the morning. They finally tidied up and looked gorgeous.
When I was about to go to the door to greet him, I was told that the master had returned to the house and was invited to the Yiyuan by his wife.
The third aunt and the fourth aunt were one step behind, naturally unwilling to accept it. The two of them gritted their teeth and simply came to guard outside the ceremony courtyard. They waited for more than half an hour before they saw the other party coming out. Before they could come up to say hello, Qing Qing
The master hurriedly walked out the door again. He didn't even bother to look at the two of them, as it was hard to dress them up for so long.
About an hour later, Mr. Qing came back from outside, but he went straight to Qian's yard happily. When the third aunt heard the news, her chest was filled with breath, and she couldn't get up for a long time. She even fell down.
I had a lot of things to relieve my anger a little bit.
The same goes for Fourth Yiniang, she just knocked over a bowl of bird's nest porridge.
While the maids were cleaning up, Zi Su came to ask for a visit. She handed the Ruyi Incense made by Qingyuan to the other party and said, "My lady made this specially for my aunt. The lady said that it is difficult for my aunt to trust her. The lady also said,
If you take this Ruyi fragrance continuously for less than half a month, you can see the effect. After taking it for more than a month, your skin will be like gelatin and your body will be fragrant."
"There must be such a magical thing?" After hearing this, the fourth aunt was surprised and doubtful. She hurriedly motioned to the maid to bring it over, and then rewarded some small things for Zisu and said: "Thank you for me, Miss. It's hard for her to remember me."
This aunt. By the way, have you sent this Ruyixiang to Madam and other ladies and aunts?"
"No." Zi Su shook her head and said: "The young lady only asked her to prepare it for the fourth aunt. The young lady said that the madam and the other aunts did not trust her. If something happened when she didn't get it, she would still have to prepare it.
It's all up to her, she won't do that thankless thing." Then, he frowned again and whispered: "It's okay if they don't want to, because of these Ruyixiang, the young lady's body is almost exhausted. If you give me more
They will inevitably have to stay up a few more nights. With Miss's current body, even if she has the will, she probably won't have the strength."
"What's wrong with your lady?" Fourth Yi Niang asked sharply.
Zisu was stunned for a moment, as if she realized she had said something she shouldn't have said, and couldn't help but lower her head in panic.
When the fourth aunt over there saw this, she said: "It doesn't matter, just say what you say. Is your young lady still feeling unwell?"
Hearing this, Zisu raised her head again, and Nuonuo replied: "In order to rush to make the wishful incense for the princess, the young lady has not slept for several nights. Qian'er has been coughing since he came back from outside, slave.
At first I thought it was just a cold infection, so I boiled some medicine and gave it to the lady to drink, but it had no effect at all, and today I can't even get out of bed."
"My slave wanted to ask the doctor yesterday, but the young lady stopped me. She said it was just a minor illness and there was no need to alarm the lady. But if you don't ask the doctor or take medicine, how can you get better? There is nothing I can do about it.
, I used the excuse that I wanted to deliver medicine to Fourth Yiniang, and planned to secretly ask Madam for a while to see if I could ask a doctor to come back and take a look at the lady..."
