Pavilion Master Xu agreed to Lu Zhiyun's proposal.
Lu Zhiyun selected two disciples who usually performed well, leaving the last spot for Yang Zheng.
However, Yang Zheng didn't know what happened. She didn't go to work for three consecutive days after Lu Zhiyun came back. She learned from other disciples that she didn't go to work for two days before she came back.
"This is Yang Zheng's residence?" Lu Zhiyun looked at the dilapidated courtyard in front of her and asked Xu Muwei, another disciple who brought her here.
"This is it." Xu Muwei said, "I met Yang Zheng once on the street. I saw that she had brought a lot of things, so I helped her carry some back, so I remembered this place."
Lu Zhiyun knocked on the door.
"Coming."
The door was opened by a woman wearing patchwork clothes.
The woman's face was full of wrinkles, and her droopy eyelids made her look a little miserable. When she looked at Lu Zhiyun and Xu Muwei, her body shrank, as if she saw the inferiority and cowardice of a noble person.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Let's look for Yang Zheng." Lu Zhiyun said.
"Zheng'er..." The woman raised her head and looked at Lu Zhiyun, "She's not feeling well and can't see guests."
"Sick? What did the doctor say?" Lu Zhiyun asked.
The woman laughed dryly: "How can people like us afford a doctor? She will get better on her own in a few days."
"We are Yang Zheng's friends and want to meet her." Lu Zhiyun said, "Auntie, can you let us go in and see her?"
"this……"
"Oh, Madam Yang Zheng, it's rare for Yang Zheng to have friends over, how can you shut them out?" A woman's voice came from the door.
Then someone else's voice sounded.
Yang Zhengniang opened the door awkwardly and invited the two of them in.
Only then did Lu Zhiyun realize that there was not just one family, but several families living together. The person who just spoke was washing clothes. There was a big well in the yard, and the woman was struggling to twist the sheets.
The others were busy with their own affairs, chatting and gossiping from time to time. When Lu Zhiyun and Xu Muwei entered, a pair of eyes rested on Lu Zhiyun.
"My dear, where did this little fairy come from..."
"This little girl is so handsome..."
"What kind of parents can give birth to a girl like this? If my girl grows up like this, even the stars in the sky will have to be plucked for her."
Under the astonished eyes of everyone, Lu Zhiyun walked into Yang Zheng's house.
As soon as I entered the room, a strange smell hit my nose.
Then she saw several eyes looking at her eagerly.
"Are these Yang Zheng's younger brothers and sisters?" Lu Zhiyun said, "I don't know what they like to eat, so I bought some cakes and you can share them with them!"
"Thank you very much." Yang Zhengniang took the paper package from Lu Zhiyun. "Yang Zheng is in this room, please come in."
Lu Zhiyun saw Yang Zheng lying on the bed.
"The Yang Zheng is so hot." Lu Zhiyun noticed something was wrong and said to Xu Muwei: "Mu Wei, please go and ask a doctor."
"Okay." Xu Muwei ran out immediately.
"I'm not so squeamish." Yang Zhengniang said, "People like us have to deal with illnesses on our own. This is not the first time Yang Zheng has a fever. In the past, she got better on her own."
"Is there hot water at home?" Lu Zhiyun asked, "I need to wipe her body."
"Yes, yes." Yang Zhengniang felt that the little girl in front of her had an extraordinary temperament. She looked like she was not an ordinary girl. She was always cautious when talking in front of her.
Lu Zhiyun wiped Yang Zheng's body.
Yang Zheng held Lu Zhiyun's hand tightly, opened her eyes drowsily, and said, "Zhiyun, is that you?"
"It's me." Lu Zhiyun said, "Don't be afraid, I asked Mu Wei to call the doctor."
"Why are you here?"
"You haven't come to work for a few days. I asked Mu Wei and she knew where your home was, so I came here uninvited."
"My family is not good and I make you laugh."
"What are you talking about?" Lu Zhiyun comforted, "Don't move, you are still feverish."
Xu Muwei quickly arrived here with the doctor.
The doctor prescribed the medicine, gave a few more instructions, and then left. Xu Muwei followed the doctor to grab the medicine and came back after grabbing the medicine.
"Auntie, please give Yang Zheng some medicine." Lu Zhiyun turned around and saw that Yang Zheng was still there and urged her.
"Okay, it will be fried soon."
Yang Zheng was so burned that she couldn't think clearly. She only knew that Lu Zhiyun was coming and he held her hand and wouldn't let go.
Xu Muwei said: "The doctor has been invited and the medicine has been taken. How about we go back first?"
Although Xu Muwei has been here before, she put down her things and left without looking carefully. Now she has been here for a long time and feels a little uncomfortable.
Lu Zhiyun looked at the sky outside and realized that she couldn't stay any longer.
"Auntie, let's go first. You take good care of Yang Zheng first. When she is well, let her go back to Sibao Pavilion to work early. I have given her a good opportunity and her salary will also increase in the future."
Yang Zheng Niang hesitated for a moment, then said: "Yang Zheng will not go back."
"What do you mean?" Xu Muwei asked.
"Her uncle told her about a family with a good financial situation who was willing to give her a bride price of fifty taels of silver. She is not young anymore, so it's time for her to talk about the marriage."
"Will she?"
"Of course she is willing to such a good marriage." Yang Zhengniang's eyes dodge.
Lu Zhiyun could see through the other person's thoughts at a glance.
Yang Zheng must not agree, maybe this illness is related to this matter.
"Auntie, I shouldn't talk too much about your housework. But Yang Zheng is my friend, so I still want to say a few words. Yang Zheng likes Si Baoge very much and wants to use her talents. She will soon become
She is the disciple of the Pavilion Master. From now on, her monthly salary will be more than fifty taels. If she succeeds in her studies, a piece of embroidery will cost more than this. How can you only care about your immediate interests?"
Lu Zhiyun has followed Mu Siyu since she was a child, and saw a lot in Zhinu Pavilion. Later, she entered Sibao Pavilion, which was also a not-so-quiet place. Even at such a young age, she always talked in one way and was very convincing.
force.
"We have already accepted the betrothal gift, and it is too late to regret it now." Yang Zheng Niang was embarrassed.
"Why is it too late for you to return the bride price?"
"The other party is not someone we can offend."
"Zhiyun..." Yang Zheng called Lu Zhiyun, "Leave me alone and go back quickly! It's chaotic here. It's not safe to go out too late."
"I……"
Xu Muwei pulled Lu Zhiyun and said: "Yang Zheng is right, we can't rush this matter. Yang Zheng is still ill, so they can't carry her to get married. Let's go home first and talk about it another day."
Lu Zhiyun glanced at Xu Muwei and nodded in agreement.
After leaving the Yang family, Xu Muwei said to Lu Zhiyun: "Before you came, Yang Zheng and I were the best friends, and I have heard some things about her."
"I knew her family was in a difficult situation and had many younger siblings, but I didn't expect her family to let her get married at such a young age," Lu Zhiyun said.
"Yang Zheng is fifteen this year. In ordinary families, it is normal to get married at this age." Xu Muwei said, "You saw it just now. There are so many younger siblings in her family that they can hardly support them."
