Mingwei thought for a moment, walked out from the corner, and walked towards them openly.
When the two maids saw the visitor, they stopped talking and looked towards her, with doubts in their eyes.
What Mingwei is wearing now are the clothes that were temporarily sent to her last night, which are similar to them. However, neither of them remembers that there is such a maid in their party, with such appearance and temperament, there is no reason why they should not remember her after seeing her.
"Two sisters." Mingwei bowed and said with a smile, "I was rescued by Butler Ji last night. I just wanted to thank the old lady. I don't want to know that Butler Ji has been away for a long time and hasn't come back. I wonder if the two sisters can ask for me.
One sound?"
"Oh..." As soon as she said this, the maids remembered.
So the girl rescued last night looks like this? What a surprise!
The Tang family's etiquette is very good. The two maids returned the gift. The older one said: "Butler Ji has gone to do some business. I'm afraid he won't be able to take care of it for a while."
"What should we do?" Mingwei showed a troubled expression, "We are rushing back to the dock to check the situation. Sisters, look..."
The two maids looked at each other, and the younger one whispered: "How about we ask Sister Bailing?"
The elder thought for a moment, then smiled and said to Mingwei: "Let's go ask the sister next to the old lady."
Mingwei saluted: "Thank you two sisters. We are in trouble here, we have nothing to offer, and we are a bit careful. I hope you won't refuse."
As she spoke, she put two gold beads into their hands.
This gold bead was removed from her headdress and is very delicate.
The maids of the Tang family have all seen the world, and they knew it was valuable at first sight, so they quickly pushed it back.
"It's just a small thing, I don't dare to thank you."
Mingwei tried again, but they still refused to accept her. She seemed to be serious, so she stopped. She thought to herself that the tutors from wealthy families are really strict, even the maids are like this.
When walking to the old lady's yard, Mingwei chatted with them.
"When I came here just now, I overheard the two sisters saying that the old lady was not sleeping well? I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to eavesdrop."
The older maid replied in a tight tone: "As the old lady gets older, it is inevitable that she will not sleep well."
Ming Wei thought, this is true, but with the power of the Tang family, it is just ordinary poor sleep, is it necessary?
She smiled and said: "We fell into the water last night. If your master hadn't saved us, we don't know what would have happened. By coincidence, my ancestor practiced medicine and passed down a few medical prescriptions, which may be suitable for the old lady's disease."
"Really? The girl is interested." The two maids were not very enthusiastic. No matter how many famous doctors saw the old lady's illness, she could not solve it.
Mingwei saw their reactions and understood. Also, it would be strange for a wealthy family like the Tang family to believe what they say.
She said this just to lay the groundwork.
If the old lady doesn't care, then leave quickly. Before Wen Xiuyi can react, run away.
If the old lady listens, then she will try another method.
When they arrived in front of the old lady's courtyard, the younger one stood with her while the older one went in to talk.
Mrs. Tang was drinking medicinal tea. She vaguely heard a few words and asked, "Is she the girl who was rescued last night?"
Bai Ling hurriedly came in and replied: "Back to the old lady, the girl wanted to come and say thank you. She also said that there is a family recipe that may be able to cure the old lady's illness."
Mrs. Tang smiled and said: "She is a person who always repays kindness."
Bai Ling laughed with him: "It's just that the origin is suspicious. I think it's hard to bring it to the old lady."
"Oh?" Mrs. Tang asked, "Why do you say her origins are suspicious?"
Bai Ling said: "Butler Ji asked last night, and their cousins said they were from the world. But just now, this girl wanted to ask the Snow Parrot and Qingque to pass on a message, so she gave her two golden beads. How can she be a person from the world with such wealth?"
Mrs. Tang's mind was slightly moved: "So, which famous family might they be from?"
"It's very possible. Madam, did you send them away?"
Mrs. Tang changed her mind: "Ask her to come in. Since she is from a famous family, she may not be telling her the secret of medicine."
Bai Ling suddenly realized: "This slave has been negligent. Let her come in now."
Not long after, Mingwei followed Bai Ling in.
If you are from a wealthy family, you will know how well the other person's family is upbringing just by meeting him.
Mrs. Tang saw that her eyes were slightly lowered, her steps were regular, and her skirts were not messy at all as she walked. Her first impression was very good.
With such a demeanor, he must have a good background.
When Mingwei finished her salute, she raised her head and smiled. Mrs. Tang paused and looked a little surprised.
No fancy clothes, no makeup, but her eyebrows are full and her face is as radiant as snow.
There was some admiration in her eyes, and she said with a smile: "If I had known that I would save such a beautiful girl, I should have met her last night."
Mingwei smiled softly and lowered his head and said: "The old lady is so ridiculous. There was a fire at the dock last night and our cousins were in trouble. Fortunately, the old lady was kind and took action, otherwise we wouldn't know where we are now! I just happened to hear that I
It's hard to sleep, but my little ancestor happens to have practiced medicine, so I dared to come and have a look. If it's useful, I can repay the old lady a favor or two."
Mrs. Tang waved her hand and said: "I do good deeds without asking for anything in return. Girls don't have to worry about it."
Mingwei insisted: "It's a trivial matter to the old lady, but it's a life-saving favor to us. The old lady should be kind and let the little girl do her best, otherwise the little girl will leave like this and she won't be able to sleep well."
The first half of her sentence was solemn, but the second half was playful. Mrs. Tang was old, and when she fell in love with young girls, she immediately laughed: "Okay, okay, if you don't agree with me, you'll be in trouble."
Bai Ling got the signal and went to prepare pen and paper.
Mingwei looked at Madam Tang carefully and asked, "Madam, can I take a pulse?"
Mrs. Tang smiled and asked: "Earlier you only said that your ancestors passed down the prescription, but it turns out that you also know the pulse?"
"It's just a superficial lesson." Mingwei accepted the permission, sat on the brocade stool brought by the maid, and gently put his hand on Mrs. Tang's wrist.
Seeing her serious expression, the hall couldn't help but become quiet.
However, this was just due to tutoring, and the maids did not take it seriously.
Has the old lady seen many miracle doctors?
After a while, Mingwei raised his head and asked: "Old madam, judging from your pulse, you should be able to fall asleep easily."
Mrs. Tang took a deep look at her and asked with a smile: "Why did you say this, girl? I really can't sleep well. Look at my face, I haven't been able to sleep well for several months."
Mingwei nodded: "That's true. Because the old lady's illness does not lie when she falls asleep, but during her sleep."
As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the hall.
Mrs. Tang didn't speak, and Bai Ling was shocked.
The old lady's symptoms are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
It is common for elderly people to have difficulty sleeping and waking up easily. When I heard that she could not sleep well, she would probably think so. Who would have thought that the condition is not like this at all? (To be continued)
