Quick travel to save a miserable life

Chapter 54 The bride-to-be (12)

Li Gu's guess is good. Butler Wang is indeed not doing well now.

He was so angry that he fell off the bed when he found out about the housekeepers' house being ransacked. Until Doctor Lin arrived, Butler Wang was in a coma, with his son Wang Ping'an and a boy accompanying him.

It wasn't until Doctor Lin took his pulse and inserted a few needles at the corresponding acupuncture points with silver needles that he slowly woke up.

Doctor Lin looked at Butler Wang, who was awake but still looking sluggish, and sighed: "You have not recovered from the cold, and you have been thinking too much in the past few days, and you just fainted when you were so angry that you must not do this again. Only by being calm can you recover from your illness."

Butler Wang was unable to reply. Wang Ping'an on the side answered for his father and thanked Dr. Lin.

Afterwards, Doctor Lin re-prescribed the medicine and told the boy how to boil the medicine.

After sending Doctor Lin away, Wang Ping'an sat beside Wang Youcai's bed. Looking at his pale and weak father, he couldn't help but say with emotion: "Dad, don't think too much. Taking good care of yourself is the most important thing."

Wang Youcai gasped for air before he could speak. Wang Ping'an hurriedly stepped forward to give him some relief. After he was out of breath, he said, "Your father and I have only been ill for a few days, and there has been constant commotion in the house. The stewards have been dismissed and the house has been ransacked." , Sales, there is not a single person left who I single-handedly promoted, this house can no longer accommodate me!"

Seeing him getting excited again as he spoke, Wang Ping'an couldn't help but comfort him: "Dad, you have worked so hard as a housekeeper for so many years. Now you are not too young. It's time to take a rest. When you recover, you will say goodbye to me." Let’s do the housekeeper’s job!”

Hearing what Wang Ping'an said, Wang Youcai couldn't help but glared at his son: "You still know that your father and I are not young anymore, so why don't you stop marrying and give me a grandson quickly? Do you want our Wang family to have no descendants?"

Wang Ping'an's face froze when he heard his father mention the old words again.

After a pause, he said seriously, "Dad, I told you that I won't marry again. I don't have any intention, so why bother harming others? I've already harmed one, isn't it enough?"

Wang Youcai was furious when he heard this: "What do you mean by harming someone? Your daughter-in-law died because of illness. No one wants this. Why did the family treat her so badly? Why do you think you are harming others by marrying your daughter-in-law? You are an unfilial son. You will never know how. If you make me angry, get out of here..."

Wang Youcai, who was still weak just now, scolded his son but suddenly became energetic. Seeing that his expression was no longer as tired as before, Wang Ping'an asked the servant to wait for the tea and left the inner room.

Wang Ping'an did not work as an errand in the government, but worked in a shop.

Although he was a slave, he had studied seriously for several years. If Lin Hui, the only next generation of the Lin family, had not been a girl, he would probably have become the young master's servant like his father.

Thinking of Lin Hui, Wang Pingan's expression softened.

That is the most innocent and lovely girl in the world.

Just as Wang Ping'an was reminiscing about the past, the servant came in and reported that a steward from the palace had come to visit the master.

Wang Ping'an frowned. It was almost night. It was not appropriate to be a guest or to visit a doctor. How could anyone come to the door at this time?

However, those who come are just guests, and they are here to see his father. He is currently ill and cannot see anyone, so he can only receive him himself.

The visitors were two stewards from the mansion. Wang Ping'an vaguely remembered that they worked in the tea house and the stable. They came together to beg Butler Wang to protect their jobs.

Since these two people were not very greedy, they just resigned from their jobs. However, they were originally stewards of the palace. Once they became idlers, they didn't want to. So they asked Butler Wang.

Although the two of them knew that there might be little hope, the whole family was about to be betrayed if they didn't see the kitchen and concierge stewards. Didn't Butler Wang come forward?

But the two of them still came with a glimmer of hope. They were not as greedy as them, but they were just a little greedy. The amount was not big. They came to beg Butler Wang for mercy. Maybe they could go back to work as errands?

However, the two of them were completely disappointed. Butler Wang did not come forward at all. It was his son Wang Ping'an who came forward to receive him. He said that his father was seriously ill and that he would not be able to interfere with the affairs of the house in the future. Even the things he gave him were politely returned. The two of them I could only leave in frustration.

After seeing the two of them off, Wang Ping'an told the boy not to let anyone disturb his father and to just report back to him if you have anything to do.

Early the next morning, when Lin Hui got up, she saw that the eyes of Zhishu and others were red, and Siqin did not show up, so she thought to herself: "Did you send her out?"

Zhishu was waiting for her to get dressed. Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, then nodded gently.

Lin Hui sighed: "Don't be sad. Once you get out, you will be a good citizen. Besides, we all live in the same city. We will see you again in the future."

After breakfast, Lin Hui thought about Li Gu not mentioning going out and being deliberately warm to her. Lin Hui thought about cousin Wen's coming into the house today.

So I told Mr. Lin that I wanted to buy a servant into the mansion today. He only said that he was a distant relative of Li Gu. Her husband passed away and she was now helpless, so she wanted to sell herself and work as a servant in the mansion.

But he didn't say that she came to the house to be a wet nurse, because Mr. Lin had already selected several wet nurses, and they were raising and recuperating in the village. He only waited for Lin Hui to give birth before sending her to the house to work as an errand.

It was a pity that Mr. Lin died suddenly before Lin Hui gave birth in his previous life. Lin Hui also died on the spot after giving birth to the child. Naturally, he could not decide what happened next, so these nannies were of no use.

In fact, Lin Hui told Mr. Lin just in case. She didn't want Mr. Lin to know about it from other people's mouths. After all, she had just made the decision to deal with a large number of servants, and now she suddenly wanted to buy people into the house. There had to be a reason. of.

When Mr. Lin heard that he was a distant relative of Li Gu, he frowned slightly, but he didn't ask any more questions and just responded casually.

Now that my daughter is older, she can handle many things on her own. Just small things like buying a baby are her own.

In order to show her solemnity, Lin Hui specially asked someone to tell the concierge that if someone claiming to be my uncle's cousin came to the door, don't stop him and report him in.

The mansion has just gone through a reshuffle. After just one night, all departments have new managers, all positions have been filled, and they all look full of energy.

Li Gu also assigned two new servants to him early in the morning, one who was originally at the second door to deliver messages, and the other who was originally at the stable to feed the horses.

Both of them are honest and kind-hearted. They can only do things sincerely and will not fawn over. Therefore, they were both marginal figures in the original department. Now that they can be assigned to serve by my uncle's side, they feel like they are lucky.

After this incident, people in other positions in the government also worked hard, paying more attention to their work than before, and doing their jobs carefully, for fear that they would lose their job if they were not careful.

Therefore, as soon as Wen Cuicui showed her identity at the door, she was immediately led into the house through the side door by the concierge, where she waited in a small room and was served tea.

Seeing how attentive these people were, Wen Cuicui thought her cousin had told them in advance, so she was very satisfied.
