- C220 Nearing New Year's Eve, Ning Hui was seriously ill (Part II)
Lady Jin, now it was time to call her Lady Mu, knowing that Wan Rong was saying this to save my face, she nodded in gratitude and followed Wan Rong.
In fact, Lady Mu was still holding onto the hundred silver that Lady Helan had previously given him, but she was not really that tired. However, when she left the Jin Residence, she had already made up her mind. With a face like this, it would be better to return to the Fu Family rather than to be despised by the other families. Firstly, the main house was a peaceful place, and secondly, the servants of Xu Mingwei were easy to get along with. As a result, when they left the Jin Clan’s gate, the Lady Mu Group immediately went to look for the Fu Clan. The weather was cold, and there was a fire burning in their hearts, but they didn’t notice it at all.
Everyone in the family knew that the one who served Xu Mingwei in her courtyard had returned. Some of them went up to Wang Shi and Xu Mingwei and tried to borrow from others to beat around the bush. Especially the second house Lady Jiao, his daughter-in-law Liu Shi Yue who was just pregnant, she was envious that Xu Mingwei’s body did not have any big changes after she became cute and lovable, but her charm was even better, becoming even more beautiful, and wanted to borrow’s hand.
The reason for this was similar. It was no different from praising Xu Mingwei’s looks and figure first, then sighing and talking about the difficulties of having a child in their own home, the difficulties of vomiting and having a bad appetite. Among them, three rooms Xiao Wang, who only came to question on behalf of his sister-in-law, was much better. She even mentioned that her sister-in-law would pay for the month twice as much as her sister, but the others didn’t.
When Xu Mingwei heard this, she laughed and said to his mother-in-law Wang Shi, “Mother, look. There is such a good person in your wife’s room, there are people asking questions every day. I’ll lend it to you, but I don’t know who to lend it to. The whole family was close relatives, and being kind to each other made it hard for people to talk behind their backs. “You’re not going to lend it to me, but you’re saying that we’re stingy and aren’t even willing to lend it to you.”
Mrs Wang curled her lips, “These people love to be envious, do you care about what they do? You’ve already taught me everything you asked me. Your end should be bitten to death, but when the time comes, I’ll become an evil person.”
Xu Mingwei smiled and replied, “My daughter-in-law remembered mother’s teachings, she also replied.”
When Fu Heng came back from fighting outside, the servants in the house immediately went to grab the cape and hat, and brought down a pile of snow powder. Hearing the voices inside, he tilted his head and smiled, asking, “Those people who came to borrow people were still unwilling to stop?”
Mrs Wang said bitterly, “That’s not it.” It was so easy for my mother to find someone who was good at taking care of people’s bodies. My grandson is not even in his arms yet, and everyone wants to snatch them away, that’s really despicable. ”
Xu Mingwei had heard Fu Heng talk about it once before, when it came to borrowing people, as long as he told Wang Shi about it, he would definitely not be able to lend it out, thus she was willing to let it go, if anyone came to ask, it would all be because of Wang Shi. She only said that the Lady Mu was decided by the elders of the two families and the body contract was not in his hands. After pushing it a few times, the person who came to ask the question gradually stopped thinking about it.
Fu Heng looked towards Xu Mingwei from afar and saw her lowering her head. She had a smile on her face and a mocking expression, but she was secretly making some arrangements, so it was unlikely that she had anything good to say. However, looking at it like this, he also felt that her appearance was very vivid. It was better than her coldly staring at him, for the moment she was reluctant to shift her gaze away.
Lady Wang was a person of the past, how could she not see the meaning in her son’s eyes? Thus, she felt somewhat unhappy in her heart. It was still not enough to just stay in one place all day long, yet she was still so sticky inside her courtyard. What kind of future prospects could she have if she was so full of love and contempt? With a cold frown, he coughed and then asked Fu Heng to look at him.
“Is Mom not happy about it? Listening to the Dr. Hu say, in the winter, you have to eat more radishes, regulate the Qi and release the heat, and it’s called a little ginseng. I need to tell the kitchen that we need to boil the radish soup a few more times. ” Fu Heng heard and coughed. Seeing Wang Shi’s discontent, he pretended not to know, and said this.
When Lady Wang saw that her son was thoughtful and sensible, she temporarily put down her displeasure and smiled. “You’re going out in such a cold weather. Who are you going to meet?”
He only took Qin Jianrui to make a raft and said, “I heard that there are some things wrong with Ning Hui’s body, so I went to take a look once. The far away mountain only said that it was because my mind was tired, and I needed to rest at home more.”
Speaking of her daughter, Lady Wang felt both pity and regret. Ever since she caused trouble at home, Heng Ge’er went around and directly told his father, Fu Hongbo, about it. Originally, Lady Wang could still mediate a little, but things had gone beyond Fu Hongbo’s hands, how could she be saved? With a single, light, painful love table, he removed the daughter he had raised for seventeen years from his family tree.
Fu Hongbo had also told his son-in-law that it was the Fu Clan’s fault that they had agreed to come to the Qin Clan in such an unfilial manner. Furthermore, they were willing to record concubinage’s name in their mother’s name and send two times the dowry to the Qin Clan. Who would have thought that the fool would reject the notion of “wife is not virtuous, husband is lost”, and would rather guard Fu Ninghui, who had lost the protection and support of her clan, and live her life.
The Fu family members sighed in their hearts at the same time that Qin Jianrui was too pedantic, but they also secretly heaved a sigh of relief in their hearts. Especially Lady Wang, the only person that came out from her stomach was Fu Ninghui, she was a piece of meat that fell from her body due to being pregnant in October, even if she did all sorts of heinous acts of murder and arson, she still did not have the heart to kill to the last man. He knew that his daughter was reliable throughout her life, so he couldn’t help but secretly ask Nanny Xue to give him some silver coins as jewelry, pulling out everything that he had kept hidden away. He only hoped that his son-in-law would treat his daughter well for the sake of money.
Thus, when she heard that Fu Ninghui was sick, Lady Wang’s face tensed up as she asked anxiously, “This is fine, why is she sick again? Have you seen a doctor before?”
Fu Heng said, “I have seen a lot of doctors, and they all said that it was their fault, that it was difficult to understand their symptoms. I saw that her face was a little sallow. I’m afraid that it really isn’t good. ”
“It’d be better if it was in the past. I could have even seen Imperial Physician Wang write a post at home.” Now, who cares about my son, who has lost his clan!? ”
In the end, Fu Heng couldn’t bear to see her sad, and was indeed afraid that Fu Ninghui would leave just like that.
What he didn’t tell Lady Wang was that when he went to look at her that time, her eyes were completely blank. She immediately asked, “Daddy really didn’t want me anymore?”
Fu Heng was unable to say anything at this moment. Even the hatred in his heart was extinguished because of her dejected look.
Hearing that, Xu Mingwei raised her head, she knew that her bones were broken and her tendons were tied, there was even a need to grind her teeth in hatred, she turned back and saw a harmonious family.
Lady Wang suddenly looked at her and asked, “Wei’er, since the Lady Mu in your house has been taken care of, why don’t you use Hui’er as an envoy first?”
Xu Mingwei’s face revealed a look of astonishment, but before she could think of a way to reject, Fu Heng opened her mouth and said, “Mother, you really are in desperate straits. That Lady Mu is only taking care of the pregnant women, and my younger sister isn’t pregnant, what can I do with it? When Second Branch three rooms’s aunts found out about it later, it was unknown what it looked like! ”
Mrs Wang gave an awkward laugh and said, “That is true, but let’s talk first. You point at Kong’er and beat the drums with your father. At the very least, father and daughter won’t be able to watch them die from illness.”
Fu Heng comforted her, “It shouldn’t have reached this stage.”
The two of them were teaching such a topic to the point that they were at a loss of what to say. Xu Mingwei was distracted by Lady Wang’s Spirit Qi, and was too lazy to open her mouth to speak. After chatting for a while, Fu Heng and Xu Mingwei came out from the Wang Residence.
Halfway there, Fu Heng opened his mouth and said, “You know Mother’s person as well, saying wind is rain, even if you don’t believe it, don’t take it to heart.”
Xu Mingwei turned her head and smiled at him in an indifferent manner, “You’re still eating from your family’s food, how would I dare?”
Although he was holding onto a stick, it was much better than being cold to him from the start. Fu Heng sighed in his heart, he had truly taught her to grind her hair to the point where she had lost her temper. Right now, he could only hope that no matter if she was smiling or cursing, it would be better if she was willing to come and go with him in this manner than to keep it in her heart.
Therefore, he could only smile and say, “It’s good as long as you don’t take it to heart. Lady Mu is something that your family has earned from me. If I really am moved to use it, then I will lose all face and see your mother. ”
Fu Heng was calm, like a clay figurine. He did not even know the pain of a punch, but for a punching man like him, jumping up and down was extremely unsightly. Xu Mingwei felt a wave of powerlessness in her heart.
The days gradually drew closer, and the snowy sky grew increasingly snowy. Besides Master Fu, who was still in charge of the upper echelons of the Fu Family, the rest of the members were even more anxious. They held the newly stir-fried peanuts in their hands as they waited to celebrate the new year. After the servants had done their work, they went to the tea room to roast some food. It was rather interesting to talk about the old days as it was a common occurrence in the market.
At the end of the year, the stewards became more and more busy with settling accounts with other families. They owed people and others owed them, so it wasn’t easy to delay the passing of the year. Xu Mingwei had Wu Jiangshu and his two wives by her side, so she did not have to worry about it, she only needed to go through the final account once. Fortunately, Wan Rong and the others had started to get to work as well, and after being busy for a while, they finally had some free time last year.
The old man said that at this time last year, he was still roasting chestnuts and eating them. At that moment, everyone’s stomach was filled with greed, and they once again sneaked out the dried chestnuts that the Nanny Xu hid. The table was set up with a variety of pastries and fried rice candy.
