Seeing that the east wind returns, the struggle for teaching is the most complicated

Cao Jinxiu was lonely, and she had to pick her up to talk almost every day; after half a month, Brother Qi caught a cold and had a severe fever. Mother He couldn't think about anything else because of her grandson, so she didn't go for four or five days. catch.Cao Jinxiu sent a girl back to visit He's mother from time to time, hinting that she could come back, but when He's mother thought that Brother Qi still looked down on Cao Jinxiu until now, she was so cruel that she never went to pick her up, and only sent someone to bring some food over.After that, it became once every three to five days, and then gradually changed to seven or eight days, but it was often sent here and there.

After Grandma Huang was sent to Cao Jinxiu's side, Chu Heng desperately begged Grandma Yun to come in and accompany Mother He, and gave her double monthly money.Grandma Yun is the girl who grew up with Mother He since she was a child. She has a hot personality and has stood up for the cowardly young lady since she was a child.Seeing Mother He shed tears when she thought of Cao Jinxiu, Nanny Yun became angry and said, "Madam is really too! She is Madam's own daughter, she should go to her husband's house at this age, can she still take her back every day?" Mother He said: "If she really married a husband, what else would I say! That child... Isn't this like a widow?" Yun Yun said with a serious face: "That's just a widowed girl, and she doesn't grow up It's in her natal family. If she doesn't bring her widowed daughter back, can she still resent her parents?" He's mother was dumbfounded, thinking about it carefully, so she sighed a few times and learned to adapt to her daughter's mood after marriage.

Chu Heng concluded that Cao Jinxiu's honesty never lasted more than a hundred days.So she counted from the day Cao Jinxiu moved out, and sure enough, on the second day of No. 70, Cao Jinxiu cried to He Mu for a long time.As soon as she left, Mother He sent someone to call her daughter-in-law to question her.

"Why did Jin'er say that the expenses over there are not enough now, and there are many shortages?" Mother He frowned.Ever since Cao Jinxiu was sent away to live alone, Mother He felt that there was nothing wrong with her. Now that her niece has been wronged again, her tone of voice to her daughter-in-law is not as kind as usual.

Chu Heng knew this question early, and replied with a smile: "The monthly money over there is sent from here, the rouge, hair oil, and four seasons clothes are also bought and sent here, and the medicine and medical treatment are all paid by officials. Sister Cao only handles the daily expenses of rice, grain, charcoal and a few miscellaneous expenses. The house over there is small and there is no garden to take care of. The daughter-in-law’s expenses for the past are only surplus, not enough. What I just said A few items, the daughter-in-law is afraid that she will be wronged, so the flowers and uses are the same as those in the wife's room, and there are fewer people there than in this courtyard, so if they can't be used, how can they not be enough?" He said and asked someone to bring the accounts. Show it to Mother He.

Mother He hurriedly said no.She could trust her daughter-in-law to say that it was paid according to her expenses, so she would not lie to her.It's just that I am living a good life here, so why is Jin'er not enough for the same fee?It's not a big account.Seeing that her mother-in-law was puzzled, Chu Heng smiled and said, "It's better for Madam to ask Nanny Huang to come back and ask. After all, she has been in charge for many years. You can find out when you ask."

Only then did Mother He suddenly realize that she hurriedly sent someone to quietly call Huang Momo back, and after asking, she found out that there was indeed a surplus of expenses that Chu Heng had given to the past, but the surplus was originally for the expenses of those who did the work; Cao Jinxiu deducted these odds by himself, and only took the amount that was just enough to give to his subordinates. If the people in charge of the affairs below wiped the oil, it would naturally not be enough.

Mother He sighed.Although she never took care of the house, she always learned something from her mother before she got married. In a rich family, those who handle errands always have to earn some benefits. Thinking about it, I was really poor in Liangzhou.

Seeing He's mother's desolate expression, Chu Heng smiled from the side and said, "Madam, don't be sad. If this is the case, the daughter-in-law will add one or two taels of silver to Sister Cao every month, so that she will not be short of expenses from time to time."

Mother He took her hand: "My good boy, if you have such a heart, I will be relieved." As soon as she felt relieved, she felt a little glad that Jin'er was not married, otherwise she would not be able to manage the house at all. How could Mrs. He see it? Eyes?Even the other two rooms are naturally to be laughed at.My own daughter-in-law is capable and knowledgeable, but she is a good match for my son.So he looked at his daughter-in-law with gentle eyes again.

Cao Jinxiu didn't expect that her tears all afternoon only earned her a half-confessed lecture, and even intentionally asked her to learn more from Chu Heng, feeling very bitter.She originally thought that being a housekeeper would always have the fun of being a master. Who would have thought that life would be more difficult than living under the low eaves. Chu Heng looked even more lazily.She had originally hoped that Nanny Huang would restrain her servants, but Nanny Huang did not know how much money she got from Zong Chuheng, she hardly spoke on weekdays, she only brought the maids to do some needlework, and she was not very willing to put on airs to talk to others.When Cao Jinxiu asked about the income of He Mu's dowry, Mammy Huang also asked and answered, although her attitude was respectful, she was not warm at all.Cao Jinxiu was anxious and angry, she felt sorry for her background, she cried in her room until midnight, all the servants were silent, no one tried to persuade her.

She heard someone's cat in the room meowing incessantly, and she couldn't fall asleep because of tossing and turning.Back then when he thought about marrying his cousin, because of his love for her when he was young, and his sympathy for her misfortune, he would always love her more than others, but he really made the wrong idea.Now he doesn't even look at himself.That day when she went to see her aunt, she found that her cousin had taken Zong Chuheng out for an outing, and she burst into tears—she hadn't even been outside the gate in all these years, who would want to take her out to have a look?Seeing this, my aunt coaxed her to tell my cousin to visit her when he came back.She waited until night in vain, but her cousin only sent a nanny to deliver a pack of new tea, without even showing her face... If she married someone else at that time, even if she and her husband were only superficially in love, it would never be as good as it is now. Is it bad?

Her previous husband was a military officer, vulgar and illiterate, he spoke foul language, and he had no affection in bed, just letting his own temper go.She originally thought that a gentle person like her cousin would be different, he must be tender and affectionate, pampered in every possible way, but who knows... Now she kind of misses that big man with a thick body...

After tossing and turning all night, the next day I didn't have much energy, and I fell asleep until dusk, when I was suddenly pushed up by the light silk: "Auntie, wake up, change clothes, the eldest master of the Zong family is here."

Cao Jinxiu was awakened in a haze, so Zong Chulu came?I was overjoyed, my face blushed unconsciously, and I quickly got up and changed my clothes.

She didn't have a good impression of the members of the Zong family, but Zong Chuling was the only outsider she could see.After taking his medicine for more than half a year, every time he came, the two of them were separated by a curtain, and his back was facing the window. She couldn't see his face clearly, but she could only vaguely see that he was slightly taller and burlier than He Hongwen .He spoke very little, but his voice was very gentle, which was different from He Hongwen's calmness.After seeing her a few times, she couldn't help asking Qingjuan one day: "What does the Zong family look like?" Qingjuan smiled and replied: "He looks gentle, fair, and gentle, but he doesn't look like grandma." That's great. , wouldn't it be depressing to be like Zong Chuheng.She said: "Hearing his voice, he is a stable person." Qingjuan said: "No! He looks honest at first glance, how old is he, he looks more mature than our young master."

So old... such a man is probably very reliable, right?I heard that his wife gave birth to three girls in a row, and he never took a concubine...

Cao Jinxiu felt a little sour in her heart, why didn't all the good men fall in love with her?She has never done anything bad, she only wants to have a husband who can love her forever, is that wrong?

Nanny Huang put down the bed curtain, and Zong Chuling entered the room, after a brief greeting, he wanted to check Cao Jinxiu's pulse again.He only came once every half a month, and Cao Jinxiu was used to it every time he had to think about changing the prescription.But for some reason, today when his finger landed on her wrist, she suddenly trembled.

Zong Chuling was taken aback for a moment, and Grandma Huang also saw it, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with my aunt?"

Cao Jinxiu's heart was beating wildly, could it be that the cat's meowing made her feel springy last night?Why... She had a fever on her face, and said falteringly: "My in-laws' hands are too cold."

Zong Chuling was a little sorry, rubbed his hands together a few times, and then started to check the pulse again.Through a layer of silk handkerchief, Cao Jinxiu felt that the fingertips were really warm... What a careful man...

"Master in-law, can I really be cured of my illness?" She suddenly wanted to say a few words to Zong Chuling.

"Yes." Zong Chulu said briefly, but very firmly.Cao Jinxiu's heart skipped a few beats.For some reason, his voice sounded reassuring to her, and she hadn't felt reassured for many years...

"Then, it all depends on the young master..." she said in a low voice.

Zong Chuling didn't answer, but she saw him nodded slightly.

God!What's wrong with me? !I am a married woman, how can I be like this... have such strange thoughts!

But after thinking about it again, what is the difference between my husband and no one?

When her mind was full of wild thoughts, Zong Chuling had already left the room, and Huang Nanny hooked up the curtain again, seeing Cao Jinxiu's flushed face, she seemed to be a little charming, and she was taken aback.Cao Jinxiu hurriedly sat up, wiped her face with a handkerchief, and said falteringly, "It's stuffy in the tent." Grandma Huang hurriedly went to open the window.Cao Jinxiu knew that Zong Chuling was leaving soon, so she hurriedly ordered the light silk that came over to help her tidy her hair: "Wrap a bag of the two snacks I made yesterday, and bring them to my in-laws to taste."

Qingjuan said: "He often goes to the prince's mansion. He hasn't eaten any good ones. Does he like our home-cooked snacks?"

Cao Jinxiu said angrily: "Although the things are ordinary, at least they are made by themselves, and they came here even after they ordered them. We should thank him."

Qingjuan laughed and said, "What my aunt said is true." Then she went out, and came back after a while and said: "
