Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua took a carriage.

When I left the mansion, apart from a few chauffeurs, there was also a strange middle-aged woman who was better dressed than ordinary women, and her facial features were also very delicate.

Ren Yaohua took a look at her: Where do you work? Why haven't I seen you?

A car lady sent by the Ren family hurriedly apologized and said with a smile: This is Sister-in-law Yuan, who is in charge of food at our Ren family's Xishan Coal Kiln. I came to the mansion today to do something for the master. I came out to meet some young ladies. If you want to go out, wait here and want to say hello to the ladies.

Sister-in-law Yuan? Ren Yaoqi paused, turned her head to look at the woman, and said with a smile, Who are you, Steward Yuan from the Events Department of the Outer Court?

The woman bowed her head and replied respectfully: It is the servant who is in charge of the house.

Ren Yaoqi nodded and said to her, Are you usually in charge of the Xishan Coal Mine?

Go back to Miss Fifth, that's right.

I hate riding in a carriage the most. The journey is so boring. Come up and tell me about the Xishan Coal Mine to relieve the boredom. Ren Yaoqi smiled and waved to her. After speaking, she remembered that she was going to ride with Ren Yaohua, Then he turned his head and smiled flatteringly, Third sister, anyway, our carriage is very spacious, so it doesn't matter if there is one more person?

Ren Yaohua glanced at Sister-in-law Yuan, saw that her clothes were neat and her hands and face were clean, so she didn't say anything.

Ren Yaoqi smiled and said, What is Third Sister looking at? Could it be that those who work in coal mines are all black?

Ren Yaohua glared at Ren Yaoqi, then turned and got into the carriage.

Ren Yaoqi gestured to Sister-in-law Yuan, and followed Ren Yaohua into the carriage.

Sister-in-law Yuan looked at Ren Yaohua, then at Ren Yaoqi: What does Fifth Miss want to hear?

Ren Yaoqi thought about it for a while, and when the carriage started to move, she smiled and said, Sister-in-law Yuan can say whatever she wants, are you deliberately waiting for me at the second gate?

Ren Yaohua looked over after hearing this, and looked at Sister-in-law Yuan with scrutiny.

This... slave... Sister-in-law Yuan was a little uncomfortable being stared at by Ren Yaohua.

Ren Yaoqi smiled and said: It's okay, she is my third sister, if you have something to say, just say it.

Ren Yaohua glanced at Ren Yaoqi upon hearing this, and turned her head away.

Sister-in-law Yuan tentatively said, I don't know if Fifth Miss still remembers the Zhu family.

Ren Yaoqi nodded: Remember, does Zhu Ruomei work in your Xishan Coal Mine? Has his mother recovered from her illness?

Sister-in-law Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and let go of her words: Thank you for remembering Fifth Miss. Fortunately, I wish my sister-in-law has the money you gave to see a doctor and take medicine, and her daughter is by her side to take care of her. She is better than before.

It seems that the Yuan family also knew about the money she gave to Zhu Ruomei.

That's good. Are you here today because you don't have enough money to see a doctor?

No, no, no, enough money. Just...

Sister-in-law Yuan has something to say, but it's okay to say it. Ren Yaoqi said gently.

The prescription prescribed by the doctor in the town to Zhu's sister-in-law is still a temporary solution but not the root cause. Ruomei and my family's Dayong found out that there is a doctor in Yunyang City who is very good at diagnosing and treating Zhu's sister-in-law's illness, so I want to take his mother to Yunyang. city ​​for medical attention.

Yunyang City... Ren Yaoqi tilted her head thoughtfully.

Yes, the doctor is in Yunyang City. Dayong once went to him and told him about sister-in-law Zhu's illness. He said that he was sure he could cure it, but he needed to see a doctor every day. But the doctor I can't go back and forth between Baihe Town and Yunyang City every day, so Ruomei has to take his mother to Yunyang City. Ruomei has a younger sister who can take care of their mother, but the child is only ten years old. Ruomei is worried about them and wants to He also took care of her in the past. It’s just that he signed a death contract on the mine to raise money for his mother’s medical treatment, and he can’t leave the coal mine at will without the owner’s permission.”

Ren Yaoqi pondered and said, Zhu Ruomei wants to leave the coal mine?

No, no, he just wants to cure his mother's illness first, and then he will come back. But it will take several months for him to leave, at least for a few months. The chief manager of the coal mine is afraid that he will never come back, so he will find him again. If people come to work for him, they don’t want to take on this responsibility. We have no choice but to ask you to come here.”

What can she do? Why don't you ask our grandmother and aunt? Ren Yaohua frowned.

The servant girl is just a small steward in the coal mine outside, the old lady and the eldest lady can be seen by the servant girl whenever she wants. Sister-in-law Yuan said with a wry smile.

Ren Yaoqi thought for a while, and said to Sister-in-law Yuan: How about this, you go back first, come to me in two days, and then tell the gatekeeper that you are looking for... looking for Xiangqin. Pointing to the parsley who was serving at the side, I'll give you an answer when the time comes.

Xiangqin, the eldest maid of Ren Yaohua who was named, glanced at her real master, and silently complained in her mind: It's really hard to be a maid for two people's wages.

As soon as Sister-in-law Yuan heard that Ren Yaoqi was really willing to help, she hurriedly responded with joy on her face: My servant, on behalf of Sister-in-law Zhu's family, Ruomei and Ruoju, I would like to thank Miss Fifth.

Ren Yaoqi saw the sincere joy on Sister Yuan's face, and said with a smile: You are not related to them, but you are willing to go so far for them, they should thank you well.

Sister-in-law Yuan sighed: Both children are good children, and Ruomei often helps me with work... We also try our best to help as much as we can.

The carriage stopped, and Sister-in-law Yuan saluted and retreated.

As soon as she left, Ren Yaohua glared at her and said, You really want to take care of this?

Ren Yaoqi thought for a while, and said seriously: Isn't it said that good people are rewarded? I want to accumulate blessings for myself and my relatives.

Whatever you want, just don't make people happy for nothing. Ren Yaohua was silent for a while, then turned her head and said.

Ren Yaoqi just smiled and said nothing.

The temple fair in Baihe Town was held near the Guan Gong Temple in the west of the town. When the carriage drove there, the whole street was brightly lit.

All kinds of lights are hung on both sides of the street, and many young men and women are visiting the temple fair in groups, and laughter is everywhere. The lantern festival of the Lantern Festival is a rare moment when you can go out of the house without having to abide by the rules.

The young ladies of the Ren family and Han You also got out of the carriage, Ren Yaoting and Han You got together a long time ago, pointing to various small stalls on the street and talking non-stop.

Han You seemed to have never been to a temple fair before, and everything he saw was novel, leaving behind his usual restraint and quietness, and his face was full of excitement.

Yao Ting, I really want to thank you. If you hadn't gone to my house to beg my grandmother, I would definitely not be able to come out. Ah——what is that? What a long lamp!

Pfft—that's juggling, a fire-breathing snake, not a lamp! You haven't even seen this? Ren Yaoyu laughed.

Han You was a little embarrassed, Ren Yaoting shook her hand, and said to Ren Yaoyu: Do you think everyone is like you, you don't have any rules like Miss Da, and you just like to run around like crazy? Have you ever seen a juggler? There are so many!

Ren Yaoyu was a little unhappy when she heard the words, but Han You said, Actually, I'm ignorant, and I really rarely go out.

Surrounded by their mother-in-law, several people walked to a place where lanterns and palace lanterns were sold. Seeing that Han You liked a lantern with the story of Chang'e flying to the moon, Ren Yaoting bought it and gave it to her.

Han You thanked Ren Yaoting, looked carefully at the lamp in his hand, and said to everyone with a smile, I just think this story is interesting to draw, but the drawing skill is really not that good. My brother's drawing is much better. At this point , she said to Ren Yaoting with some embarrassment, I'm not saying this light is bad, I just...

Ren Yaoting smiled and said: I know, the one who painted this lamp is just a painter, how can you compare with...them? It's just to watch the excitement.

Han You nodded, turned to Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua and said, Uncle Ren's paintings are much better than my brother's. I once saw one in my brother's study.

Ren Yaoqi recalled that Ren Shimin once gave a painting of her own to Han Yunqian as a thank-you gift, and couldn't help but smiled and said, My father likes to draw on weekdays.

Han You nodded: I heard from my brother that my uncle has many excellent paintings by himself. What he gave my brother is a picture of autumn chrysanthemums...

The smile on Ren Yaoqi's face stopped suddenly, she looked at Han You and said, Did your father give your brother a picture of 'Autumn Chrysanthemum'?

Seeing that Ren Yaoqi's expression was a bit strange, Han You said puzzledly: Yes, it's the 'Autumn Chrysanthemum Picture'. It is said that the painting is about the chrysanthemum festival near Yijiang, Kyoto in the evening. The third uncle's use of color is very bold, and the whole All the Xunjiang rivers are rendered in red, but they are so natural and not at all obtrusive.

Listening to Han You's words, Ren Yaoqi's heart sank gradually, and all the smiles on her face disappeared. Ren Yaoqi, who didn't smile, made people look indescribably cold.
