In the cold winter, it was snowing heavily outside, Xia Yin'er was sitting in front of the fireplace, looking out of the window, stroking her swollen belly with her hands from time to time, feeling the pain or itch of the child kicking her, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

"Naughty again, your mother went to the capital to rush for the exam, and no one told you a good story, so you are bored in it, aren't you?" Xia Yin'er touched the place where the child kicked her and muttered to herself, "Mother is also boring, Once her living book is gone, my mother will be much more bored."

Xia Yin'er sighed softly. Wei Bing's storytelling is always very interesting, and sometimes he will change the ending by himself, which always surprises her. Her legs cramp from laughing several times.

"Miss, everything is ready." Caiyun counted the winter things on the table, and turned to look at her own lady.

Xia Yin'er came to her senses after hearing the words, remembered Wei Bing's parents, and said slowly: "Let the butler send someone to take it there."

Caiyun hesitated for a moment, then walked up to Xia Yin'er and said, "Miss, 20 taels of silver a month is enough to buy things for the winter in the East Alley, and this servant feels that we really don't need to go there."

Xia Yin'er glanced at Caiyun and said with a smile: "You girl, why do you look distressed? These things are not for others, so what's the point of buying something for relatives."

Caiyun lowered her eyes when she heard the words and said: "I just think that the East Lane can obviously arrange things by myself, but when the young lady went to visit them, she explicitly and secretly reminded the young lady to prepare things for them. The servant feels that they are not like elders. They won't be grateful if you give them the entire Xia family."

What Caiyun said, how could Xia Yin'er not feel it?They have been married for more than a year. Before that, she took Mother Wei and Wei Xiang to almost all the shops in Qinghe County. What kind of things did she not buy for the Wei family?At first, the relationship was very harmonious after getting along like this, until Wei Bing won the Juren.

Wei's father came to the door again and again, asking his father to pay for Wei Bing to take care of him. Yes, a person can be an official, and it is not a problem to pay some money to arrange a candidate, but this kind of thinking makes her look down on her a little bit. Fortunately, It was rejected by Wei Bing himself.

She likes Wei Bing's integrity, but his parents want to use her family's money to manage his daughter's officialdom. It's not that his daughter doesn't have the talent, so she can take the exam based on her strength.

It's just that she didn't expect that if their family didn't agree to this one request, it would offend people and forget all the good things in the past. Now she doesn't like to hear a word said by Dongxiang.Even when I went to visit a few days ago, it was just because I hadn't visited for a long time, I went to see Wei Bing for Wei Bing, but I went to see something that I can't leave the winter in three sentences!During this period, Wei Bing was not mentioned at all. They didn't care whether Wei Bing was doing well or not in the capital, and they didn't care about the child in her belly.

"It's not as serious as you said, but I just want something." Xia Yin'er turned her head to look at Cai Yun, "Send it, but fortunately, it's just a matter of asking for something, it doesn't matter, as the elders said, it's so cryptic, If I don't give it away, wouldn't it make the relationship even more rigid? Don't care about everything, for the sake of Wei Bing and the child in my stomach, I shouldn't argue with them about it. It's not worth comparing."

"My miss, you don't like these things, but one piece of these things is enough for an ordinary family in our county to spend for a year." Caiyun was upset and said worriedly: "I am afraid, this time they will take the initiative to ask for it, miss Yes, the next time what they want is too much. Last time, Wei Xiang was studying, and the lady had to pay for it. Why can't 20 taels a month afford her daughter's education? It's obvious that people are too greedy. "

After Caiyun finished speaking, seeing that her lady didn't respond, she knew it was useless to persuade her, so she opened the door and walked out, asking someone to remove her things.

Xia Yin'er sighed slightly, she wasn't stupid, she couldn't see through that at first, but after a long time, she would naturally be able to see it all.It's just that she doesn't like it at all. If Wei Bing's relatives are satisfied with some money, she has nothing to do with it. As long as it's not too much, she just turns a blind eye and closes one eye.

"Miss, here comes the porridge, let's have some." Caixia opened the door and came in, carrying the porridge and approaching, put it on the small round table next to Xia Yin'er, and then pulled the blanket on Xia Yin'er.

Xia Yin'er served the porridge, took a sip, and asked, "Hasn't she come back with a letter recently? The spring should have ended long ago, right?"

"Not recently, the master said that I think I won, otherwise I would have come back early, and if I won, I will be assigned an official position in Beijing and other officials." Caixia replied.

Xia Yin'er put down the spoon and said, "If you want to wait for a letter from the Ministry of Officials, you should write a letter and say it. It's almost a month since the last letter?"

When Caixia heard this, she didn't know that her missus missed Wei Bing.

"Maybe the girl didn't spare time in Beijing!"

After hearing this, Xia Yin'er shook her head and said, "No, she knows that I miss her, and she will find time to come no matter how busy she is. You can ask someone to find out if the inn in the capital is too busy? Listen It is said that there are a lot of people going to take the exam in Chunwei, so don’t send letters home, you won’t be ranked there.”

"Miss, you are almost at the end of the month, so don't worry about it all the time. The master in the capital has already asked someone to inquire about it."

Xia Yin'er heard the words and sighed: "It's been so long, I don't know if I have enough money?"

"Oh, Miss, you're here again!" Caixia said helplessly, "Young lady is very smart, she will never let herself to the point where she is at the end of her rope, don't worry, drink porridge quickly."

Xia Yin'er also felt that since she was pregnant, she was always worried about this and that, so she smiled embarrassedly and said, "Okay, I don't want to, let's put the porridge on the fireplace to heat it up, I don't have any appetite right now, I'm sleepy for a while Get up and eat."

Xia Yin'er said as she pulled the blanket, then closed her eyes.

Not long after Xia Yin'er fell asleep, Caiyun came back.

"Miss is asleep?" Caiyun looked at Caixia.

Caixia whispered: "Well, her stomach is so big that she can't sleep well when she rolls over at night. You and I should keep quiet so as not to wake her up!"

"Oh, let's talk about it after Miss wakes up." Caiyun said and walked outside.

"What's wrong?" Caixia followed out.

"Wei Xiang in the East Alley is ill. She said she got caught in a snowball fight with someone after school, and she is lying in bed with a high fever!"

When Caixia heard this, she said, "Then it's time to call a doctor."

"Please, I'm taking medicine. It's just that the person sent by the housekeeper came back and said that Mrs. Wei wants Miss Wei to come and see Wei Xiang."

Caixia heard the words and said angrily: "It's snowing so hard outside, and the lady's belly is almost a month old. She wants the lady to go? It's too much. The lady is not a doctor. If Wei Xiang's illness can be cured after going there? Obviously it is. Seeing that the girl is not here, I want to use airs to order the lady."

"That's the way it is said." Caiyun sighed, "It's just that the young lady won't go, for fear that she won't follow her."

"What are you afraid of? Who is pointing at whom to live at the moment? Don't get it upside down! Today, you and I are not allowed to wake up the lady, only the lady wakes up to speak. In the east alley, everything is pointing at the lady and she can still show her face Is it? Even if they dare to challenge this time, you and I are on top, and we did not wake up Miss."

Caiyun listened to Caixia's words, nodded and said: "That's true, although they have been asking for things for no reason recently, but they have been married for so long, and they haven't shown any face to the young lady over there, so they dare not think about it."

Xia Yin'er slept until three o'clock before waking up, Caiyun and Caixia waited for her to get up, until Xia Yin'er took a few sips of porridge and stopped drinking, Caiyun said something.

"Having a high fever?" Xia Yin'er was taken aback, "If a high fever persists, it will burn people. Have you told your parents? Is there a doctor there to take care of you?"

"Miss, don't worry, there is a doctor over there."

Xia Yin'er stretched out her legs and said, "Bring me my cloak, go and have a look."

"Miss, the snow has just stopped outside." Caixia said.

"Let's go carefully. You have to go. After all, Wei Xiang is not well right now. Putting other things aside, the sick people matter."

Caiyun looked at Caixia after hearing the words and said: "Bring the shoes that are baked for the lady by the fireplace. I think I have to go there. Otherwise, when the girl comes back, someone from the east alley mentions it, and our lady will be wronged."

Caixia sighed when she heard the words, and reluctantly went to fetch the shoes.

"Fortunately, I baked the shoes so that the insides are warm, and the lady won't get cold feet when she goes out." Caixia said as she put the shoes on for Xia Yin'er.

Xia Yin'er's feet became warm immediately, and she said with a smile: "You still love me, let's go, call Dr. Zhong from the house, and let's go there together."

The sedan chair landed in front of a house on the west side of the east alley, the bearer pushed down the sedan chair, and Caiyun helped Xia Yin'er out.

"Miss, it's windy, Caixia will support you and follow me." Caiyun said and held up an umbrella in front of her.

The house is a small house with two entrants, and it is tidy inside. Xia Yin'er stepped on the snow, protecting the child in her stomach with one hand, walking carefully step by step.

Caiyun opened the door, and Xia Yin'er raised her leg and stepped in. When she saw a stranger, she was stunned.

Wang Xin was decocting the medicine, when she saw someone coming, she looked up, even if she didn't recognize him, she knew who it was, Wang Xin panicked and stood up quickly.

"Xin'er, you are busy with your work." Mother Wei stepped forward and patted Wang Xin on the shoulder.

Upon hearing this, Wang Xin sat down to decoct the medicine again.

Xia Yin'er took a step closer and let Caixia take off her cloak.

"Mother, who is this girl?" Xia Yin'er asked suspiciously.

Mother Wei regained her composure when she heard the words, and said: "She is a miserable person. Hey, let's not mention these things. At this time, we thought you would not come."

When Xia Yin'er heard this, she took a step forward and took Wei's mother's hand and said, "What did you say, sister Xiang'er is ill, and her sister is not in Qinghe, so how can I not come? Sister Xiang'er is doing well now Is it ready? I brought Dr. Zhong over here, and I will show it to my sister."

Wei's mother glanced at the doctor behind her, but she didn't refuse, and led her into her daughter's room.

"By the way, Ah Bing hasn't come back yet?" Mother Wei asked casually.

Hearing Mother Wei mention Wei Bing, Xia Yin'er was a little surprised. After walking for so long, the mother finally remembered her daughter.

"No, maybe it's high school, waiting for the Ministry of Officials to send officials!"

"Really?" Mother Wei was excited when she heard the words, "This is really great."

"What's the matter!" Wei's father said angrily, smoking a cigarette, "Originally, I won the exam, and I can become an official with a little money, so why waste these days so much trouble."

When Xia Yin'er heard this, Father Wei was still complaining about this matter. She wanted to endure it, but she always felt uncomfortable. She used to feel uncomfortable no matter who was standing in front of her, she would tell it. Now she has endured it several times in front of Father Wei. , I don't intend to endure it this time.

"Daddy is wrong. Wei Bing is knowledgeable and can pass the exam himself. Why didn't he pass the exam after winning the Juren? It's better to be born as a Jinshi than to be born as a Juren."

Wei's father widened his eyes and said, "Yin'er, how can you talk to elders like this? You really don't know the rules!"

When Xia Yin'er heard the words, she knew that the explanation didn't make sense, so she didn't bother to speak again.

Seeing Xia Yin'er's attitude, Wei's father said angrily: "We let people say that Xiang'er is sick at noon. If you don't like to come, then don't come. No one is forcing you to come. It's almost dusk now. My daughter doesn't care. At home, if we hadn't met Xin'er, we wouldn't even have anything to rely on!"

When Caixia heard this, her father didn't have the same attitude when Wei Bing accompanied the young lady, but now that Wei Bing is not here, she even lost her temper with her young lady.

"This matter has nothing to do with our young lady. Caiyun has to believe that our young lady is asleep. If Master Wei complains, then he can blame us for being maids. We didn't wake young lady up. We had to wake up to tell young lady."

Caiyun also stood up and said: "It's like this, the young lady came here immediately after hearing about it, and brought Dr. Zhong with her, don't wrong us young lady."

Xia Yin'er listened to the two maids arguing for her, but her eyes were on the girl who made the medicine.

"Father, mother, who is Xin'er? Is it the girl over there? Who is she?" Xia Yin'er looked at Father Wei and Mother Wei.

Wei's mother was still a little flustered, and tugged at Wei's father's sleeve, signaling not to say anything, but Wei's father was not angry, and when he heard that his daughter was waiting for officials from the Ministry of Officials in the capital, his confidence hardened immediately.

"Xin'er is the girl Wei Bing hired before."

Xia Yin'er's eyes were filled with disbelief when she heard it, and she even felt absurd! !The two maids were also dumbfounded, how can there be such a bully.

Xia Yin'er didn't want to stay any longer, she looked at Wei's father and mother and said, "What do you mean by what the two elders did, I won't ask. When Wei Bing comes back, the two elders will come to talk to Wei Bing and my parents. I'm tired."

Xia Yin'er turned around and wanted to leave.

"Yin'er, look, what kind of temper are you trying to coax." When Wei's mother heard this, she hurried forward and said, "Xiang'er is sick, thanks to Wang Xin, if you don't thank her, you are still coaxing awkwardly here. You appear to be ignorant."

Xia Yin'er didn't want to stay longer at first, but when she heard Wei's mother's words, she said angrily, "Mother, why do you talk like this? You did such absurd things, and you said I was awkward and I was ignorant? Wei Xiang was ill, this How did the girl of the Wang family know so quickly? Our family members are sick, parents, are you still rushing to the Wang family to tell them?"

"Yin'er, you're making a fuss. I met Xin'er and said a few words. What's the point?" Mother Wei said with a straight face, "It's Xiner who is suffering. You have worked so hard. If you know the general idea, you should thank her." People!"

Xia Yin'er's face turned red with anger, and she couldn't speak a word.

Seeing this, Caixia stepped forward and said, "Madam, what did you want us miss to thank? Thank them for rejecting you from the Wang family because they disliked the poor and loved the rich? Or thank them for their snobbish eyes and regretful marriage?"

As soon as this remark came out, Xia Yin'er felt very happy, and Wei's father and Wei mother's face became ugly.

Seeing this, Caixia continued: "It is our lady who let you wear brocade and eat well, not that girl from the Wang family? If she was a good girl, she should have stopped her parents from regretting the marriage! If she cared about you, when you were in trouble Why don't you come? Why are you pretending to be a good person now? You want our lady to thank her? She deserves it, but just because she repents of her marriage and doesn't want to show her face, she is not a good girl who obeys the rules!! Give our lady shoes Not worthy!"

Xia Yin'er has been silently listening to Caixia giving her a head start, and when she heard the last sentence, she gave Caixia a look, and reasoned as she was, what was the last sentence that hurt people's self-esteem.

"Okay, Caixia." Xia Yin'er took Caixia's hand, looked at Wei's father and Wei's mother and said, "Father and mother, although I have never asked about Wei Bing's past, I also know that the Wang family ruined the relationship first. Wei Bing is married, if the parents know the etiquette, how can they allow the unmarried girl of the Wang family to come to the house again? Even if they come to the door, they are still guests. What kind of person do the parents treat the girl from the Wang family? medicine?"

Wei's father and Wei's mother were very angry when they heard the words, but they couldn't express what was in their hearts on the face.

"We watched Miss Wang grow up since we were young. She saw that we were getting old and insisted on helping." Mother Wei said.

"Father and mother are elders, and they have traveled a longer distance than us younger generations. They should know what to do and why they should not do anything. Don't parents think that they are rude if they leave the girl from the Wang family behind?" Er Lao.

Father Wei couldn't help but said angrily: "It's just like this, so what? Yin'er, you junior, you have been holding on to things, which is unfilial!! Don't think that my daughter is married, and you will look down on us. If you say Potian, I am too Wei Bing's own father!!!"

"Since Daddy talks like this, there is nothing to talk about. Whatever Daddy and Mother do, let's talk about it when Wei Bing comes back." Xia Yin'er said and wanted to leave.
