Chapter 1540 The Tiger Girl 24
Xining understood the power of this and said with a smile: "What the second aunt said is that maybe I haven't seen my grandmother for a long time and miss her so much. But my body is not strong enough, and I have major illnesses all the time. I just fell into the water a few days ago. This I still have a bit of a cough for a few days. My grandmother is old and can’t take the illness away, so I can only endure it. After a while, I will have someone make some cakes and send them to her. , is also a heartfelt sentiment.”
Mrs. Chen choked, what she said was really perfect, so she smiled and said: "The old lady must know this feeling. Lihua is still sensible, unlike those in Jingxi Courtyard, who are in good health, but no one goes to see her I don’t know what I’m busy with every morning!”
I saw that Mr. Chen had a strong mouth and kept his words inside. Alluding to Aunt Xu's group, they didn't go to the old lady to say hello every morning, but just went to Mrs. Zhao's.
Xining didn't answer and pretended to cough twice. Huh, it's not that easy to elicit her words. She wouldn't talk about Aunt Xu's place with nothing to do after a full meal. It's not her style to talk behind someone's back. If you want to do something about it, just go and investigate.
"I'm really coughing. I hurriedly went back to the house to rest. It's all my fault. I was so happy to see you while I was talking. I forgot that you were in poor health and you really deserved a beating." This was a pleasant statement. , saying that he should be beaten, but he didn’t see anyone taking action. Anyway, if you really do it, it will definitely not be heavy.
"Second aunt is joking. How can the elders apologize to the younger ones?" Xining pretended to be exhausted, holding the maid's hands on both sides, bowing slightly and saluting: "Shu Lihua is weak and can no longer accompany the second aunt. ”
Mrs. Chen immediately stretched out her hand to support her: "Oh, this child, what are you doing when you are not well?" My aunt's heart ached, so she quickly went to rest. This child is really beautiful and sensible. I will definitely find a good one in the future. Mother-in-law’s family.”
"Second Aunt~" Even though she felt as disgusted as swallowing a fly, she still pretended to be shy and made Mrs. Chen laugh.
After having a "happy" conversation with Mrs. Chen, I also had a very deep impression on Mrs. Chen. Mrs. Chen, who is dressed like a widow, is definitely not as ordinary as she looks.
Recalling the previous plot, although the second uncle was paralyzed, he still failed to escape in the end. The person in the second uncle's house was hacked to death along with everyone in the general's mansion. What happened afterwards, I don't know. If the emperor feels a little guilty, he can still be buried in a mound tomb with a stone tablet. If they are discarded like worn-out shoes, the fate of the General's Mansion will be like Poria cocos, and the mass graves will be their final destination.
On the contrary, the old lady died well. She died a year before the general's mansion was destroyed and was buried with the former old general. The Holy Spirit did not harm the ancestors of the General's Mansion by digging up their graves.
Although the old lady had two sons, one was killed in battle, the other was paralyzed, and had no heirs, God was still very tolerant to her and she escaped.
After returning to the house, he changed his clothes and sat down. Xining arranged for Qiuye to go to the kitchen to see if there were any sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, mung bean cakes, and Double Ninth Festival cakes. He took a few pieces and gave them to the old lady. Anyway, the old lady will reward the servants, or even throw it away directly, but the principle still needs to be done.
The next day, Zhao Geng and Qiu Tian came. It is said that the General's Mansion is huge, and the guards patrol it, and it takes more than an hour to walk around it. Instead of concentrating the nursing homes together, it is better to spread them out and take care of one place in batches.
Zhao Geng saluted: "We are assigned next to the Zhulan Courtyard. Although we are outside the hospital, martial arts practitioners have good ears. As long as the whistle sounds, we will definitely be able to hear it."
Zhulan Courtyard is the courtyard where the owner of the body lives. Zhu is red. When the courtyard was renamed, he also hoped that the owner of the body would have flowing red water and continuous good luck.
The arrangement was really well done. This way, it was more reasonable for the secret guard to live outside the courtyard as a guardian, and if anything happened, he could go there and say something.
"Thank you both." Xining nodded: "Dongmei, go and take a look. If there are any missing bedding items, make them up for them."
"Thank you, Miss Third!" The two of them saluted and left.
About seven or eight people were arranged in a three-room tiled house next to Zhulan Courtyard. It took half a day to pack up and move in all kinds of things. After that, they took shifts every day to patrol and guard the area.
Although there was no shortage of anything, Xi Ning still asked Dongmei to go to the warehouse to get some quilts and mattresses to deliver, and also told her to follow the standards of the house for cooking coals and eating, and not to neglect it. She also understood that it was only temporary for now. At present, she is afraid that someone may be up to something and mess with her. When her marriage is settled and married, the mission of these secret guards will be completed.
Her marriage is just like that of her third brother Zhao Yingyue, she will definitely decide it as soon as possible. As for the marriage between Zhao Yingxue and the third prince, if it still follows the previous plot, it will be very soon. After the New Year, General Zhao will make a decision before setting off to return to the border.
The previous plot was also about the marriage of three people, and it was all decided in a hurry.
However, it is difficult to say about the marriage of the body owner this time. Without the burden of falling into the water, and the impression of Rongguo Duke's mansion is extremely bad, the body owner will definitely not marry Zhao Chengzong.
No matter what, let’s celebrate the New Year first.
As soon as these nursing homes were settled, they were ready to celebrate the New Year. Mrs. Zhao was busy buying New Year's goods, preparing New Year's Eve dinner, and inviting theater troupes. She would never let Aunt Xu interfere with these matters. As a result, even if Grandma Li helped, she still wanted to lift her feet up.
Each courtyard is also cleaned up and down, decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, in preparation for the New Year.
Qiuye walked with her in the yard, walked around and returned to the yard. Dongmei had asked her servants to clean up the entire yard.
After sitting down, Dongmei came and asked: "Miss, who can I ask to write these Spring Festival couplets this year?"
Qiuye was afraid that she would forget, so he continued: "Last year's couplet was written by the second lady, and the couplet the year before was written by the married eldest lady. Others in the other courtyards all wrote it. How about I go to the second lady or madam? Where do you want some?”
In this common people's home, one pair is enough. But there are many doors in the General's Mansion. In this courtyard alone, there are five or six doors including the main gate, the main hall, and the side chambers on both sides. Each college will naturally have the best and most talented writers.
Well, I can only say that the body owner is uneducated and a fool.
Xining thought for a while: "The third brother should be back in the next two days. Find him then."
"Who is looking for me?" The curtain at the door opened, and a tall but handsome young man walked in.
"Third brother!" Xining happily wanted to get off the Arhat bed.
"No need to get up, just lie down and be fine." Zhao Yingyue went to the other side of the Arhat's bed and sat down.
"Hurry up and watch the tea." Xining shouted, then pushed all the dessert plates on the table towards Zhao Yingyue: "Third brother, have some snacks."
The body master and Zhao Yingyue have the best relationship. On the one hand, they are also similar in age, only four years apart. On the other hand, whenever Zhao Yingyue has something good, he always thinks of his little sister first.
