MTL - Drunk House-Chapter 2 letter
Chapter 2 Letters
The doctor from Huichun Hall came very quickly. He was familiar with running the prefect's mansion, and knowing that there must be money to be made, he ran like a rabbit.
After seeing Su Rong, he took out the creamy jade satin ointment with a smile, and handed it over respectfully, "Miss Seven, you can use this ointment when the wound is scarred. One bottle guarantees that you won't leave any scars."
Su Rong nodded, "Call my mother's pulse again."
The eldest lady sullenly said, "I don't need it."
Su Rong didn't speak, but forcibly pulled the lady's arm, signaling the doctor to come forward.
The doctor stepped forward with a smile, and after taking the pulse of the lady, he said with a smile: "Madam is fine, but she is a little angry. The old man prescribed a prescription to reduce the fire. Madam will be fine after taking it for two days."
The lady withdrew her hand.
Su Rong nodded, "Then drive!"
So, the doctor went outside to prescribe medicine.
Su Rong followed, stood beside him and asked, "Have you been to Chen Duwei's mansion? How is Chen Zhou's injury?"
The doctor paused, sighed, "Well, Mr. Chen's injury is very serious, and the old man prescribed three bottles of creamy jade satin ointment."
Su Rongle, "Well, I have generated income for you again."
The doctor was very kind, and said in a low voice: "Miss Seven, don't worry, I will do what I promised you."
Su Rong was satisfied, holding the jade satin ointment, and carrying the moon crescent, Shi Shi ran away.
The doctor left the prescription, happily went to the cashier to settle the bill, and then happily left the prefect's mansion with the money bag in his hand.
The eldest lady felt sorry for Yin Zi, "It's fine for this prodigal **** to ruin herself. If she is not married off, sooner or later this family will be destroyed by her."
The ladies are already numb.
Miss San said, "Mother, instead of thinking about marrying off Seventh Sister, you should marry us off first. We're afraid that we won't be able to make up a dowry when we get married."
Miss Fourth agreed, "Yes, mother, we don't want to point to Seventh Sister to climb high branches together. If this continues, if she doesn't get married, we will fall into your hands."
The eldest lady has a heartache and a headache, "Hey, she still has a month to die, so I'll write to ask what the regulations are in the Duke Huguo's mansion? If the Duke Huguo's mansion divorces, I really can't count on her. Who knew that Young Master Zhou was also out of tune."
She comforted the few people, "The Huguogong's mansion is the most reputable, and the old Huguogong was established here, so you should not regret the marriage. As long as the Huguogong's mansion recognizes this marriage, your marriage will also rise with the tide."
"Mother, we have been staying in Jiangning all the time. If we all go to the capital according to your plan, can we do it?" The eldest lady was worried.
"Why not? The money spent on you all these years, the teachers you hired, and the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting you learned are all for nothing? Don't worry, as far as your rules are concerned, they are no worse than the boudoir ladies in the capital."
She was annoyed, "It's only Xiaoqi. Except for that face, the rest have learned a mess. I spend the most money on her."
"What if the Huguo Gongfu regrets the marriage?" Second Miss asked.
"This..." The eldest lady was asked, "I can't say for sure."
She was ruthless, "This year, the oldest one of you is only seventeen, and you can still wait for half a year. Even if you can't count on Xiaoqi here, you can still count on your elder brother. He is about to end in the golden autumn. If he is in high school, you will follow him, and the threshold for choosing a relative will be much higher."
All the girls nodded together, and finally had some smiles on their faces again, "Brother is the most reliable."
The eldest lady picked up the letter on the side, clicked on the content inside, and was very angry, "Look at Xingze, every time he writes a letter to his family, it is only three pages, and two pages are all about Xiaoqi, but Xiaoqi, she came just now, and she didn't even ask what was written in Xingze's letter."
She called someone over, "Mother Wang, take this book to Xiaoqi, let her read it, and write back to Xingze. You bastard, fortunately her brother doesn't even think about me, only about her. Let me see if she has the face to mention that she got into trouble again."
Wang Ma should be, took the son's family letter and hurried to Su Rong.
Although Mr. Su is the governor of a county, and although Jiang Ning is also very rich, Mr. Su is an upright and strange creature, he doesn't know how to make money, and only relies on his salary and a little bit of ancestral property to barely support his appearance. Such an upright person shouldn't have any shortcomings, but Mr. Su really has, he is a womanizer.
So, just such a little wealth is used to carry women to the backyard.
So much so that the backyard of the prefect's mansion was full of women. A woman lived in one yard, gave birth to a daughter, and lived in another yard, until she gave birth to Su Rong. Su Rong had no yard to live in. Su Rong could only live with her mother, but her mother died when she was seven years old. She and Yuewan lived in her mother's yard for another month.
One day a month later, Su Rong was too tired after fighting with someone, accidentally knocked over the candlestick, it was windy that day, and it was night, the window was open, the wind blew in, the house caught fire, Yue Wan and her had no strength to save them, they had only the strength to run out.
Master Su still loves Aunt Qi very much. Seeing that the house where Ai Concubine lived and everything she used was burned down, there was no way to put out the fire, and there was not a single tile left.
Seventh Auntie's yard is the most exquisite, and it is the best for every use.
This fire was burned, how much money was lost?
The eldest lady was very angry, and in a fit of anger, she drove Su Rong to a small broken courtyard in the northeast corner where no one lived.
Later, Mr. Su wanted to spend money on rebuilding the yard where Aunt Qi was alive several times, but because her daughter was too expensive to fight with others and had no money, she always gave up feeling sad.
Su Rong thinks that the small dilapidated courtyard is very good. It is far away from the main courtyard and other courtyards, so that it is convenient for her to climb over the wall and go out.
But outsiders don’t know what’s going on, they all say that the Da Furen hates that Aunt Qi was favored during her lifetime, and after Aunt Qi is gone, the Da Furen treats other aunts and daughters well, but she is very harsh on Su Rong, not to mention giving her food, drink, and clothes, and even beating and scolding her.
Wang Ma came to the small broken courtyard, and if she really came here, she would think of the Nuanxiang Pavilion where Aunt Qi lived.
Yuewan heard footsteps, looked out, and said loudly: "Miss, Wang Ma is here."
Su Rong was using a whetstone to sharpen his dagger. Hearing this, he immediately put away the whetstone and the dagger, and lay back on the bed neatly, with his eyes closed and complaining of a headache.
Wang Ma is an old man, she knows there must be something shameful in the house, otherwise Yue Wan would not have a guilty expression on her face, she is also speechless, Seventh Miss is arrogant, but she is also a ghost, and the maid around her is always like a little fool, not at all clever.
They all grew up eating the same rice, so why is there such a big difference!
She entered the back room, came to the bed, and respectfully handed Su Xingze's family letter to Su Rong, "Miss Seven, the son's family letter, Madam asked the old servant to show you the letter, and said this letter, you come and go."
Su Rong immediately opened his eyes, with a look of astonishment on his face, "Every time I go home to read, isn't it my mother?"
"Because every time I come back home, there are three pages and two pages are about you. Madam read it for a year and was very angry. She said that anyway, the son doesn't miss her, only misses you. This book should be returned by you."
Su Rong: "..."
She would rather Su Xing not miss her.
She took the letter from home, and thought she would see another two pages of stern warnings not to fight and get into trouble, not to bully her sisters, and not to be angry with her parents.
Only at the end, it is mentioned that she is about to reach the age, and he will come back on the day of the age.
After reading the letter, Su Rong wondered, "Brother didn't break his brain, did he?"
Mother Wang thought to herself, you are the one who broke the brain.
Su Rong read the letter again, and Su Xing said that he was fine, that is, nothing happened. But she couldn't stand the sudden soft words. She handed the letter back to Mama Wang, "My hand hurts from fighting and I can't write a reply. You take it back and ask mother to write it. Just tell the elder brother that it's just a Jiji gift. What is he doing all the way back? My sisters are similar to me. I haven't seen him come back after Jiji three or four times this year. Let him study hard. I don't want this special. The golden autumn scientific examination, our family can count on him to shine."
The implication is, don't come back, I don't want to see you.
Wang Ma: "..."
She coughed, stood still, and glanced at the head of her bed, "Miss Seven, you didn't hide your dagger and whetstone properly. Just before the old slave came in, didn't you still have the strength to sharpen the dagger with your hands?"
The implication is that you can't grind it with your feet, right? If you have the strength to sharpen a dagger, you should also have strength to write a letter.
Su Rong: "..."
She turned her head and glanced, and sure enough, the dagger handle and the edge of the whetstone were exposed on the side of the pillow. It was probably because she was too surprised just now, she moved too much, and touched something, which exposed it.
Everyone in the whole house is afraid of her, but this Wang Ma, who is Su Xingze's nanny, is not afraid of her.
She cursed in her heart, slowly got off the bed, and said in a nasty voice, "Yuewan, grind ink!"
Yue Wan quickly found the red note, and then picked out the fine brush. The young master is very particular, you must use high-quality orchid letterheads when you write letters, this is specially sent when you leave, it is brand new, and has not been used.
Su Rong held the pen, and in the other hand, she landed on the letter paper, which made Wang Ma very satisfied. After all, this handwriting was taught by the young master himself. No matter what kind of messy words are written, the young master will definitely be satisfied when he sees this handwriting.
This is the second update!
