Aunt Guo is Xu's dowry nanny, and the whole family's marriage contract is in Xu's hands.
Sons and daughters are just that, they have no future.
At least, thanks to Aunt Guo, she gained favor in front of the Xu family, and now all of them are assigned to the fat and short-term children, which is enough for them to live the rest of their lives without worrying about food and clothing.
Originally, the whole family did not have any lofty ambitions, so they all lived quite comfortably with the Xu tree as their back.
The little grandson Yu Tianhao was born, like a golden phoenix in a henhouse. He was born smart and smart. He worked as a book boy next to Shen Yuanlin, the only child of the Shen family. He learned faster than the real owner and could be said to have a photographic memory.
, is born to be the material for reading.
Since then, Grandma Guo has had a lot of heart problems.
While telling his grandson in every possible way that he must know how to hide his clumsiness and never appear to learn faster than the young master, he also began to make various plans for his future.
Now that Mr. Xu suddenly relented and said that he could release Yu Tianhao's citizenship, Grandma Guo was so happy that she didn't know what to do.
In her opinion, the little girls who had just been bought into the house had to be lured with benefits and threatened, and it was not easy to capture whether they were capable or not, and whether they wanted a palace or a palace.
So the next day, she brought her tailor to her house early in the morning, ready to tailor clothes for the new maids, but she was turned down.
Shen Tianshu used the excuse of feeling unwell and asked her to come back another day.
I went the next day and was stopped outside the door again, saying that I had to be from Shuangqingfang.
Aunt Guo just thought that Shen Tianshu now had the prescription in hand, so she picked up Qiao Lai without taking it too seriously.
At this moment, whenever she thinks about her grandson taking part in the imperial examination and honoring his ancestors, her heart is filled with heat and she can exert endless energy.
On the third day, Grandma Guo brought Master Huang and Guo Xiu Niang from Shuangqingfang to the door and was finally let in.
Shen Tianshu has been obsessed with packing up several large boxes of medical books left by the original owner in the study these days.
She found many medical books in the box that she had never seen before in her previous life, including original copies from previous dynasties, handwritten collections of medical records, and some medical records and manuscripts from the original owner's grandfather.
Shen Tianshu felt like he had found a treasure. He would often hold up this medical record and look at it with relish in the middle of packing it up.
Now I was holding a few pages of medical records and couldn't put them down.
When Mingyu entered the room and saw this situation, he waved his hand and sent the two little girls out and said, "You go out and have your clothes made to order first. I'll take care of the girls here."
After several days of training from Mingyu, Rui'er and Mi'er are now more presentable on the surface.
After the two people saluted Shen Tianshu, they quietly left the study.
Mingyu then stepped forward and said softly to Shen Tianshu: "Girl, just as you expected, Grandma Guo brought the tailor in, and she took a detour to the small kitchen in the back on the pretext of being out of court."
Shen Tianshu turned over a page of the medical record in his hand and said without raising his head: "Go and keep a closer look, just to see how this girl Minghui is doing, and whether she should be used properly."
At this time, there was only Minghui in the small kitchen at the back, squatting next to the medicine basket, gently fanning the air with a cattail leaf fan.
The fire at the bottom of the stove licked the medicine and made Minghui's little face turn red.
This is something she has been doing at home since she was a child. Not only does it not feel hard, but she actually misses it a bit.
Nanny Guo walked quietly to the door of the small kitchen. She quickly glanced around the room and saw twenty or thirty open oil paper bags on the side table. Inside were various kinds of oil paper bags that she either recognized or did not recognize.
Recognized medicinal materials.
Minghui heard the sound and got up to check. Seeing that it was Grandma Guo, she hurriedly said hello and then asked, "Mammy, are you here for something?"
Aunt Guo's pair of eagle eyes had already looked around every corner of the kitchen, but she didn't find anything that looked like a prescription. She had to put on a smile and said: "I'm going to bring a tailor here to measure you so that you can make clothes."
, I saw that all the other maids were there but you were missing, so I came over to take a look."
As she spoke, she stepped forward and took Minghui's hand. She put her right hand directly on her cheek and said, "It's a winter sedum. Your hands are so cold but your face is so hot. It's the easiest way to get sick!"
It's really a waste of your appearance and character to have you do such menial work in the kitchen."
Aunt Guo was just showing her kindness in her usual way, but Minghui was shocked by her words.
You know, Mrs. Wei not only sells young maids, she also handles all kinds of sold wives, concubines, singing girls, and family members of criminal officials.
Minghui is two or three years older than the other little girls, and her thoughts are far deeper than them. She often goes to these people to help them with their minor problems, and in exchange for some experience in a high-ranking family that cannot be shared by outsiders.
Therefore, when she heard these words, she didn't think she was concerned at all, but her alarm went off in her heart, thinking that Grandma Guo was just looking after her daughter-in-law for her children and grandchildren.
In a large house like the Shen family, even if the family gives birth to a child, as long as they are promising and respected, there is no need to worry about marriage.
If the man's family is rushing to praise the woman to the sky, he must be either disabled or stupid.
Minghui was so frightened that she took two steps back to avoid Aunt Guo's hand, and said quickly: "I am so lucky to be chosen by the girl, I am so grateful, not to mention that boiling medicine is not hard work at all, no matter how hard and tiring it is,
, my slave is also willing."
"Actually, if the eldest girl hadn't fallen in love with you first yesterday, I would have wanted to keep you and leave you with my wife..."
At this moment, Minghui's mind was filled with the various routines told to her by her concubines. Every word that Grandma Guo said seemed to be able to find a corresponding template.
"Thank you, mama, for your kindness, but this slave girl is now a member of the eldest lady's house, so naturally it's not easy to serve the lady anymore..." Minghui said, anxiously turning back to look at the fire.
The medicine is almost ready. If you don't pay attention at this time, it is easy to dry up the medicine.
Who would have thought that Aunt Guo would persist in getting involved again and said: "As long as you are willing, this is not a matter of just a word from Madam? Could it be that the eldest girl would have trouble with Madam over a newly bought maid?"
"You just entered the house and you don't know the situation. There are so many people waiting on Madam. If you come over, you will only be responsible for preparing Madam's face cream, bath beans, medicine packs for bathing and foot soaking, etc., and you will also do rough and heavy work.
If you have a rough girl to do it, your life will be more comfortable than that of an ordinary girl."
The more Minghui heard, the more doubtful she became. She had just entered the mansion yesterday and had never seen Madam before. Why did Madam want to go there by herself so much?
As she thought about it, she couldn't help but look up at Aunt Guo suspiciously.
This is the only person she has ever come into contact with around Madam, so she must be the one causing trouble.
Seeing her looking at her, Grandma Guo said that she was attracted by her. She immediately smiled and said harder and harder: "As long as you hand over the prescription that the elder girl asked you to make, I can guarantee that today
Just let Madam take you there, what do you think?"
"Ha!" Minghui sneered. Her father was framed by someone using medicine. She despises people like this the most in her life. "I just couldn't figure it out. Obviously I was in the hands of Aunt Wei. I'm a loser who can't be sold, but I finally kept me thanks to the big girl who didn't dislike me. How come I turned into a hot commodity in the blink of an eye? It turned out that this was my intention."
Aunt Guo found that Minghui's reaction was completely different from what she expected. She finally suppressed her smile, straightened her back, turned her face away faster than flipping through a book, and threatened: "Damn girl, don't think you have a big girl to back you up. Don’t be afraid of heaven and earth. Think clearly, the head of the Shen Mansion is a madam, not a big girl!"
Minghui's face turned red with anger, and she said angrily: "Bah, who do you think I am! Ever since I can remember, my father has taught me that a doctor must first have a good heart, and secondly, medical skills. Now, although my family is in decline, I have been discovered. She was sold into slavery, but her father's teachings were never forgotten. The eldest girl trusted me and gave me the task of boiling the tonic for her. Today, unless you step over my body, you can't even think about tampering with the eldest girl's medicine. !”
"You, are you making tonic for the older girl?" Grandma Guo was dumbfounded.
