Awu rushed straight into the hospital and rushed in front of Li Xiaonan.
"Didn't you say you have something to do today? Why are you at home?" A Wu stood in front of Li Xiaonan and asked with his hands on his hips.
"I have something to do at home." Li Xiaonan was clicking on a yellowed old booklet with one hand and doing calculations quickly with the other.
In this time and space where the abacus is the most advanced calculation tool, she can only put in some effort to learn the most advanced calculation technique of the abacus.
"I have communicated to you twice, and this time is the third time! Let me tell you, Sister-in-law Lu is so anxious that the corners of her mouth are wet!"
"Awu, come and wash up!" Sister Mei heard the noise and came from the backyard. She quickly poured water and called Awu.
"Wait a moment, something urgent happens."
"No matter how anxious you are, don't be in a hurry. Look at your sweaty face and gray face at this moment. Come here quickly!"
"You go and wash up first. The sweat stinks so much that I can't speak." Li Xiaonan didn't raise her head and kept thinking.
Ah Wu turned around, went over and took the basin of warm water off the basin stand, put it on the ground, bent over, and washed it all over.
"Sister Mei, there is no need to heat the water next time. I wash my face with well water all year round in my hometown. It is much warmer here than our hometown." Ah Wu washed and wiped the handkerchief from head to neck, then rubbed a few handkerchiefs, and wiped the handkerchief.
Rub it clean and wring it dry, pour the water, and put the basin and handkerchief back.
"You are sweating hot, and the well water is so cold. If you slap water on your face like this, you will get sick! Our family is not short of that little firewood. Come, have a bowl of tea, and our third aunt will bring it back.
of good tea."
Sister Mei handed the teapot and teacup to Awu.
Awu thanked Sister Mei and returned to Li Xiaonan with a pot and a cup.
Li Xiaonan turned the last page, closed the old booklet, glanced at Awu, and signaled that she could speak.
"Do you still want to take back the money you threw away?" Ah Wu was extremely annoyed.
Li Xiaonan tilted her side and did not answer.
"Okay, the money is yours and I can't control it. I'll just pass on Sister-in-law Lu's words.
"Sister-in-law Lu was very angry. She said that the money was not theirs, but they only had one or two, so they dared to spend it without any care.
"It was said that He Laowu's family used the money to hire the eldest daughter-in-law, and also said that they would repair the house, and after the house was repaired, they would marry the new daughter-in-law back home.
"He Lier's family is building a new house. The old house has been knocked down and the materials have been piled into the yard. I went to see it and the foundation is being laid.
"Lao Liu's family has begged a woman and brought her home. They have been weaning her for three years, and they said she could give birth to three sons if she catches up with her.
"The second and third sons of Dahuan's family in the village stole five taels of silver and went to Pingjiang City to sleep with women. They stayed there for two days, but they went back and the money was gone."
After Awu finished speaking, he glanced sideways at Li Xiaonan and saw that Li Xiaonan acted as if he hadn't heard anything. He let out a long sigh and leaned forward, "Did you hear what I said? You can't get your money back! Are you going to Hejiacun yet?"<
/p>
"I heard it, I must go, just wait a few days. We will have dumplings with leek and egg stuffing for dinner. If you want to eat it, tell Sister Mei quickly and ask her to make more." Li Xiaonan took another one.
This booklet, then practice abacus.
"Eat!" Ah Wu gritted his teeth and spat out the word "eat." "I'll call my cousin over and help Sister Mei make dumplings."
She said again and again that she had tried her best and she didn't care about the chaos in Hejiacun!
Early the next morning, Li Xiaonan went to the palace to look at the files.
After watching all morning, when lunch was about to be eaten, Wan Qing walked in hurriedly, came to Li Xiaonan's side and muttered: "My cousin is looking for me again, and wants to eat with you again!"
"Or is it for Mrs. Shi?" Li Xiaonan suppressed her voice.
"It must be. I asked my cousin if our prince knew about it, and she said that she had just heard that you came over today and said that the prince had gone out early in the morning. Our prince had indeed gone out early in the morning. What should I do?"
/p>
"Last time we had dinner together, she fell ill again." Li Xiaonan looked at Wan Qing, meaningfully.
"I called the doctor that day. He said he had been lying in bed for several days! I heard Sister-in-law Shen from the pharmacy say that this prescription is for calming the nerves. You must have made him angry." Wan Qing patted Li Xiaonan on the shoulder.
Next.
She admired her little girl's ability to make people angry with just a few words. She was always the one who got angry every time.
"Just eat it." Li Xiaonan thought for a while and said with a smile.
"Is it really delicious? Okay, you won't suffer any loss anyway. Besides, our prince doesn't have anything to do with it. The reason for deducting my monthly payment is because of the fresh meat mooncakes." Wan Qing sighed.
This lunch was still arranged in that water pavilion with Mrs. Wei Si, Mrs. Pan Jiu and Mrs. Shi, as well as Li Xiaonan.
Mrs. Shi was thinner than last time, and her face was not as good as last time. She was wearing a thin silk cotton cloak and quietly listened to the conversation between Li Xiaonan and Mrs. Pan Jiu, barely speaking.
This meal was very harmonious and enjoyable.
Following Li Xiaonan back to the library, Wan Qing let out a long sigh of relief.
Li Xiaonan glanced sideways at her.
"Although our prince didn't say anything and didn't deduct my monthly payment, it's not good for you to choke once when you meet Miss Shi Da.
"Well, if I don't worry about you, your family has flat hair and white clothes after all. Scholars are not considered noble people. Miss Shi Da is a noble person who has proposed marriage to our prince. Miss Shi Da is also very scheming. They say she is generous.
Whether he is truly generous or fake, who knows!
"It really pissed her off. It's not about what happened to her. It's not her fault. Human beings, if you can be kind to others, it's best to be kind to others. This is what my mother-in-law said." Wan Qing said in a low voice.
"Yeah!" Li Xiaonan nodded quickly.
Wan Qing does this for her own good.
The next day, Mrs. Weisi and Mrs. Weisi came to the water pavilion again and invited Li Xiaonan to have lunch together. Miss Shi still listened more and talked less. Mrs. Weisi didn't talk much. Mrs. Pan Jiu and Li Xiaonan just came and went.
Some gossip about what to eat in the capital and how to eat in Pingjiang City.
Li Xiaonan came to Bieye to read for three days in a row, and for three lunches in a row, she and Mrs. Wei Si had lunch in the water pavilion.
Gu Yan needs to get familiar with the dispatch of the various ministries in Jiangnan that are temporarily transferred to his hands, survey and arrange defense, and prepare for the prince's arrival in Jiangnan. He is extremely busy these days, walking back at midnight almost every day.
Gu Yan frowned when he heard that Miss Shi Da and three other people went to Shuilou for three days in a row to have lunch with Li Xiaonan.
The next day, Gu Yanwan walked for half an hour and heard that the Fourth Lady Wei was up. He went around to the courtyard of the Fourth Lady Wei and asked someone to invite the Fourth Lady out.
"I heard that you go to the library for lunch every day these days, don't you need to accompany the second wife?" Gu Yan asked directly without saying a word.
"Is my cousin worried about the eldest lady, or the little girl?" Madam Wei Si was not polite.
"I'm worried about you, you are my cousin." Gu Yan replied smoothly.
Madam Wei Si laughed, "My cousin is really getting better and better at talking. It was the eldest lady who wanted to go. She didn't say why. I asked, but she didn't say.
"The eldest lady didn't talk much during the meal. The four of us said ten sentences, and eight of them were said by Jiu Niangzi and Xiaonan. The remaining one and a half were said by me, and the eldest lady said half a sentence at most. p>
"You know, Jiu Niangzi, she only talks nonsense. This is what you said.
"What Jiu Niangzi and Xiaonan said were all the same nonsense you said. For example, Jiu Niangzi said that during the Chinese New Year, she would eat dumplings, Xiao Nan said that she would eat rice cake soup, and Jiu Niangzi said that during the Lantern Festival, one must step on at least two buildings.
Qiao, Miss Xiaonan said she was going to steal onions. Jiu Niangzi made an appointment with Miss Xiaonan. If Jiu Niangzi could celebrate the New Year in Pingjiang Mansion, Miss Xiaonan would take her to steal onions. It's all such nonsense.
"When I came back from dinner, the lady didn't say anything. She said very little these days. She just sat there in a daze for a long time."
Lady Wei Si said and sighed.
The eldest lady has been in a daze, as if she has lost her soul. Seeing the eldest lady like that, she is very sad.
"I'll talk to A'nan later and let A'nan find a chance to persuade her." Gu Yan was silent for a moment and said.
"Huh?" Mrs. Wei Si was startled by Gu Yan's words.
Grandma? Let Grandma persuade me?
"I've been very busy recently. You must keep an eye on Madam. Don't let anything happen. Do you have enough manpower?" Gu Yan nodded in the direction of the yard.
"That's enough. Don't worry, when will the Crown Prince arrive?" Lady Wei Si nodded in agreement.
"It's almost time. I'm leaving." Gu Yan turned around and left.
Lady Wei Si looked at Gu Yan striding away, raised her head slightly, and looked at the treetops in a daze.
What is going on between her cousin and the little girl? Her cousin actually said that the little girl should persuade the eldest lady. This cannot be thought about...
But if you think about it too much, it doesn't look like it. The little girl is very upright. Although her cousin is called "Anan" and is close to her, he is also very upright like that.
My mother-in-law once said that the relationship between my cousin and my eldest lady was too open-minded. She said: The love between a man and a woman is obscure and shy. There are countless thoughts that cannot be disclosed to others, so they must not be open-minded.
Alas, she has too little experience. It would be great if my mother-in-law was here.
