Uncle Summoning

Back at Bai's house, Bai Gansheng hadn't come back as expected, Ma Fufang only told the old lady of Bai's house and went back to her yard.At this time, Jing Lan had already had hot water prepared, and after waiting for Ma Fufang to wash up, she gently persuaded:

"Ma'am, when I came back, I saw that the third concubine was asking for supper, saying that it was waiting for the second master to come back. You are taking care of the things at home, should you tell the kitchen to let them Send some too, wait until the second master comes back..."

Ma Fufang changed into a homely plain robe, secretly sneered, waiting for the second master to come back to snatch someone?I robbed someone with an aunt just for the benefit of one time, and it's not embarrassing enough to say it.

While eating sweet-scented osmanthus honey water, he vetoed Jing Lan's proposal. After thinking about it, he suddenly asked:

"Jing Lan, I remember that your uncle's house now shows my dad a shop in Guangzhou?"

"That's right, my uncle is now buying goods for the master in Guangzhou, but my aunt and cousins ​​are all here."

"In this case, I will write a letter later, and you can find someone to bring it to your uncle, and ask someone to do something for you as soon as possible. I will reward you a lot if you finish it, but don't let irrelevant people know."

Jing Lan didn't know what was going on in Ma Fufang's mind, but she agreed directly. Anyway, what her wife said was right, as long as she finished the errands for her, it would be fine.

Sure enough, after lighting up the lights in each room, Bai Gansheng's servant, Degui, went to the outer door to report that Bai Gansheng was resting in the third aunt's room tonight, and asked him to come and get a change of clothes for tomorrow.

Ma Fufang asked Qinglian to wrap up Bai Gansheng's usual clothes, but she personally called Degui to the flower hall. Seeing him standing there with his head bowed and silent, Ma Fufang only asked Bai Gansheng a few words slowly. Sheng has some social activities outside, and the timing of meals is not the same, and the service is not careful, so he said with a smile:

"Speaking of which, Degui is not too young. You have been with the second master since you were a child, and you can be regarded as loyal. The second master is a big man who can't think of these trivial things. I have to think for him... I don't know what Degui wants to marry. What kind of daughter-in-law?"

Degui was startled, sweat came out of his forehead, but he didn't dare to wipe it off, he knelt down and kowtowed and replied:

"I sold myself to the Bai family, and the second master treated me with such kindness as a mountain. I only want to serve the second master well in my life, and I have never thought of anything else."

"That's not right, you are the proud person next to the second master. If you are left alone for the rest of your life, not to mention the second master and I feel sorry for you, even if the people below look at it, they will say that we are cruel and ruthless to the servants. Don't you think so badly?" Does Second Master have a good reputation outside?"

Ma Fufang gently put the teacup on the table, and said slowly with lowered eyelids, Degui didn't dare to answer, so he could only kowtow to apologize.After he kowtowed a few times seriously, Ma Fufang gave him a wink, and Qinglian went over to help him up, and said with a smile:

"Why are you such a big man? My wife is for your own good. Whenever you have someone in your heart, you should tell your wife honestly. If it is good, it will be up to the second master and his wife to decide. Do you really want to fight for the rest of your life?" Bachelor?"

Degui was still silent, and Ma Fufang didn't force it, just smiled and said:

"Go back and think about it carefully, and give me an answer within three days... I see that there are a few good girls in this mansion, such as Lichun, Hongxiu, and others. Hey, I think the girl named Bihe is also outstanding. , all needlework is bad, her temperament is crisp and sharp, and she was also trained by the old lady's mother herself, she is a good girl."

Hearing Bihe's name, Degui's face blushed secretly, and after a long moment of silence, he cupped his hands and replied:

"It's up to the wife to decide."

Sure enough, Degui's love for Bihe was deeply rooted, and Ma Fufang clapped his hands:

"Just give me a word earlier, don't worry, I will tell the second master someday when I have free time, nothing is impossible. It's just that you have to promise me one thing."

"Ma'am... please tell me."

Degui's heart swayed, and he made up his mind. This wife is usually the most jealous and domineering. I'm afraid she heard the gossip about the second master and Huang Caiwei outside and came to him to find out the news. But even if the wife married him for him, he still The second master's people will naturally not do things that betray the Lord and seek glory.Ma Fufang saw his face change, but just pretended not to know:

"It's easy to say, the second master believes in you the most, and you have to promise me that you will follow the second master anytime and anywhere, no matter where the second master goes, you must take good care of him... Don't let him suffer , got it?"

Especially don't hook up with other girls casually and make a "lonely man and widow"!

*****************************************

Since Ma Fufang did not lure Huang Caiwei into the woods, and did not let anyone tell her whereabouts to the two who were exposed by Huang Caiwei for selling fake medicines, so the poor Mr. Bai Gansheng did not succeed in saving the beauty this time, nor did he follow Huang Caiwei. The lonely man and widow staying in the wild for one night naturally did not ruin his reputation, so Bai Gansheng was not "forced" to marry Huang Caiwei as his concubine.

After the Ma family was settled and Bai Gansheng and Huang Caiwei's chances were cut off, Ma Fufang then worked hard to do one thing - find a doctor.My body has been poisoned for five years, so if I hurry up and get cured, I will have to use it up.It's also thanks to the fact that she has been struggling a lot in order to have a child, and this time she made it clear that she directly asked people to find all the good doctors in the city. The old lady of the Bai family couldn't stop her son from begging for a child, she just frowned but didn't say anything Blocked, but still got the same result: nothing wrong with it.

This was within Ma Fufang's expectation. These doctors had looked for her before, and since they couldn't see it at the beginning, now they can see that the chance of her being poisoned is even smaller.Instead, the old lady of the Bai family sent Mrs. Cui to comfort her, and some supplements, and called her into her room and personally ordered:

"The heirs of the Bai family are important. No matter how good the medicinal materials and supplements are, as long as the doctor prescribes them, you just tell me that no matter how much money you have, I will ask Gan Sheng to find them for you. As long as you can give Gan Sheng a son, I will eat fast." Recitation of Buddha's name is willing."

Ma Fufang smiled and stood up to thank, and returned a bunch of supplements to the old lady of the Bai family:

"Although the children are important, the mother's body is even more important. Since the eldest brother left, our family has become much quieter. I also want to give my mother a grandson as soon as possible. By then, the big house will be more lively."

Everyone would say the heart-piercing words, Bai Ganfeng is the Achilles' heel of the old lady of the Bai family. Sure enough, the old lady of the Bai family paused when she heard this, and the corners of her mouth became less curved. After a while, she replied:

"Since this is the case, you should give me a grandson as soon as possible. Speaking of which, you haven't been happy for five years since you married, maybe it's God's will. Maybe you have to give Gan Sheng a few more concubines. After all, this heir is the last one. important."

"What mother said is," Ma Fufang also smiled like a bodhisattva, "Our Bai family is a big family, and now Gan Sheng is the only one, and children are the most important thing. Now the four concubines in the room are all with me. Generally, I am not lucky, and I have not raised a son. I am very disturbed. Waiting for tomorrow, my wife will ask someone to find Yazi Han Po, and ask her to help find a few good-natured and docile ones to buy for Gan Sheng. Be a concubine."

The old lady of the Bai family rolled her eyelids, looked at the sun outside, and wondered where the sun rose from today.This Ma Fufang is usually the most staunch and irritable, every time she takes a concubine for Bai Gansheng, she will make a fuss, but she doesn't know that now that Ma Fufang has changed her core, she is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, how can she stop the old lady of the Bai family from giving Bai Gansheng Sheng taking concubines?As long as the deed of sale is in her hand, no one can get out of her palm, and by the way, Ms. Huang Caiwei can show that if she really comes, she will not be ranked fifth this time, but will be ranked second. digit trend.

The old lady was not easy to fool, she was frightened by Ma Fufang, she immediately reacted, pursed her lips and frowned and said:

"It's good that you are so virtuous, but what you say is just perfunctory to my old lady. I can really believe your words when I see Mrs. Han tomorrow."

"Is it my fault to make my mother worry? I don't need tomorrow. I will send someone to ask Mrs. Han to come over in the afternoon. The money for buying a concubine is also paid from my private room. After all, it is because of me. It is also my respect for Gan Sheng and mother. a heart."

What Ma Fufang said was high-sounding. She waited by the old lady of the Bai family for half a day, and at noon, she even served meals and dishes herself. The face of the old lady of the Bai family said clearly:

"You are also what we often use. Naturally, both mother and I can trust you, and I don't need to ask you specifically. Just find me a few homes. It doesn't matter what you look like. It's just that the first body should be easy to give birth. It's best to have a lot of families. Those who have many children; the second nature must be gentle and docile, and you must not make a fuss in the house if you invite it in, and the old lady will not be quiet if you provoke it."

Mrs. Han is such a character, she has long practiced the ability to observe words and expressions, and she hurriedly smiled and replied:

"I understand. I will do everything according to the wishes of the old lady and the wife. When I go back, I will search slowly and find the best ones to send to the old lady and the wife. If there is a bad one, I will let the old lady and the wife deal with it." .”

"If all you find are good, you will naturally not forget your benefits. You should take this matter seriously, don't be perfunctory with me, and bring them as soon as possible. The heirs of our Bai family can't delay !"

The old lady of the Bai family did not forget to give some advice, and Ma Fufang also helped:

"What the mother said is that the daughter-in-law will definitely take this matter as the top priority."

He also asked people to take out two bolts of blue muslin and two emerald silver hairpins, and gave them to Mrs. Han:

"It's not a good thing, Auntie should take it as a reward."

Mrs. Han thought that she would make a lot of money from this errand. Seeing Ma Fufang being so polite, she smiled into a Kaifeng soup dumpling with 32 pleats, and received it in her hand while being polite:

"On weekdays, the old lady and the wife take good care of my business, why are you so outrageous? Naturally, I will try my best to find some good ones for the old lady and the wife."

After complimenting the two of them a few more words, they left abruptly.

************************************************

Here, after fighting the famine with the old lady of the Bai family, Ma Fufang returned to the Peony Garden where she lived. Qinglian had asked someone to prepare tremella bird's nest soup and a plate of red bean paste rose cake, and quietly told:

"In the past few days, my wife asked me to stare at the big kitchen. I did find something strange. When we followed my wife to the Bai's house, she specifically mentioned that the rules of the Bai's house are that girls in each room are not allowed to enter the kitchen, and they eat snacks every day. The food boxes were all packed and sent out by the people in the kitchen for us to take away, but Mama Cui would sneak into the kitchen through the small back door every day before dinner, and I don’t know what she did. "

Qinglian deliberately stared at her for a few days, and saw Cui's mother changing her dress as a kitchen clerk and sneaking into the kitchen several times. Although she wanted to follow her in to have a look, she was afraid of causing trouble to Ma Fufang, so she had to come back and report it later.Only then did Ma Fufang confirm that the old lady of the Bai family really poisoned herself. After thinking about it, she ordered:

"Send people to the courtyards of the concubines to send a letter. From tomorrow onwards, the concubines' lunch and dinner will be shared in the Peony Garden, and then tell the kitchen that the meals will no longer be arranged according to the courtyard, and they will be sent to the Peony Garden when they are ready. Come."
