Chapter 777: Walls Have Ears
would fall ill for three or two days. Then she'd say I was weak and could only stay home. Under the guise of being the second master's wife, I ended up doing all the work of a servant!"Isn't she fond...Mrs. Wu was bored sitting in the car, so she opened the window to look at the street scene and relax.
Perhaps taking a shortcut, the carriage stopped in the south of the city this time. Small alleys crisscrossed beside it, seeming to house many commoners. 。From time to time, children could be heard shouting and running past. There were also peddlers carrying burdens, hawking their wares. 。And there were women in a hurry to prepare lunch, carrying baskets and coming out to buy vegetables. 。At this moment, a woman in gray clothes walked to the carriage not far away. She seemed to have met an old acquaintance and started chatting excitedly with her. 。"Wang Jia Meizi, where are you in such a hurry to go" Wang Jia Meizi was wearing a blue dress. She was short and plump, with a face full of smiles, clearly overjoyed by something. 。She grabbed the woman in gray's basket and stuffed two red-shelled eggs directly into it, smiling proudly. 。My daughter-in-law just gave birth to a healthy baby boy, weighing eight pounds! I'm out here handing out red-shelled eggs for good luck. 。“
The woman in gray quickly smiled and replied, “Oh my, this is such wonderful news! This little boy will surely grow up healthy and safe, becoming a man of great talent and handsome appearance like Pan An!”
Everyone loves to hear good things. The woman in blue was overjoyed and kept thanking them.”
Inside the carriage, Madam Wu didn't feel good listening to this. 。As the daughter of a national mother, wanting to have a child is incredibly difficult. 。And yet, these mud-legged men fell one after another with such ease... At this moment, the grey-clothed woman asked, "Wangjia girl, it's not that I want to gossip, but out of curiosity, I have a few more questions..." 。"I remember your daughter-in-law, she hadn't moved for five or six years after getting married. How come she suddenly gave birth to a big fat boy now" 。"What kind of folk remedy did he take, or where did he find a famous doctor"
"Oh, sister, that's exactly what's bothering me!"
The woman in blue came to her senses, rolled up her sleeves and started speaking. 。"Actually, my daughter-in-law being able to give birth to a big fat grandson is all thanks to me." 。They have no children, and I'm worried. I've tried everything, but my daughter-in-law is still not pregnant. 。"I happened to hear that the Qingcheng Mountain Temple's wishes are very effective, so I took some dry rations and rushed there." 。"I climbed the mountain for half a day and knocked my head eighty-one times in the main hall, donating two taels of silver before returning home." 。"Less than a month later, my daughter-in-law started vomiting. She went to the clinic and found out she was pregnant!""Really" The grey-robed woman was surprised and asked, "Is Qingcheng Guan really that effective Then I should go ask for it too. My son is terrible at studying, maybe I can ask for a top scholar to come back..." 。" The woman in blue nodded forcefully and tugged at the woman in gray, saying, "I heard that there's been an old immortal living on Qingcheng Mountain these past two years, which is why it's so effective." 。“If you want to go, you’d better hurry up, or if the old immortal leaves, what you ask for won’t work!” The woman in grey quickly said, “Don’t worry, don’t worry! I’ll go buy some groceries first and settle things at home. Tomorrow I’ll take my son there.” 。After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two parted ways, each returning to their busy schedules. 。However, Wu Dafu's wife in the carriage listened from beginning to end and suddenly had a change of heart. 。If the Qingcheng Guan is really that effective, it's worth a visit. 。Even if it's not effective, don't be afraid. Just treat it as a way to relax...Old Lady Li was "taken" home by her children and grandchildren, where she ate, drank, and slept every day. She wasn't allowed to do any work or go out. However, she felt suffocated... 。On this day, the old woman started to make a fuss. 。"Are you treating me like a pig I just had a moment of weakness because I didn't sleep well, so I felt dizzy for a while. I haven't broken my arms or legs, why can't I go for a walk" 。 "I'm not going far, just going to the fields to have a look." 。The jade gourds were all harvested, and the field was planted with cabbages and radishes. I just want to work, but there's nothing for me to do! Isn't that allowed" She pushed the bowl of medicinal soup out, refusing to even take a sip. 。Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru looked at each other, both smiling with a hint of helplessness. 。Old children, little children, they're really hard to coax. 。Master Zhang had the old woman rest for a month, but it's only been a few days and she can't hold on any longer. 。Just as the beautiful voice came in from outside, a small, bouncing fox followed behind. 。Tao Hongying saw her daughter as a lifesaver and immediately called her over to help. 。Jia Yin tugged at her collar, where several round dates were tucked inside. 。This thing is somewhat similar to the passion fruit of a past life, only a little smaller. 。She went up the mountain specially to pick some fresh ones for her grandmother to eat. 。The result was placed next to the old woman. The old woman ate one and put it down. 。The good words wouldn't come out, so I could only check the old woman's pulse. Seeing that she was truly fine, I pleaded with my mother and aunt for mercy. 。Grandma's recovery is progressing well, and her pulse is very stable. 。Staying cooped up at home like this is actually not good for your health. 。"I haven't been to the shops in town for a long time either. Why don't I take Grandma by car and go for a walk with her We'll be back soon." 。"
Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru hadn't even finished speaking when the old woman, already delighted, stood up. "Good, that's a good idea!" 。Having said that, she began to call for people to get a car. 。Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru could only quickly arrange people to tidy up the carriage. 。The Li family's carriage wasn't luxurious, but it was very clean and spacious. It was lined with bedding at the moment, ensuring that the old lady could take a nap whenever she got tired. 。Grandma He and Shui Ling attended in the carriage, while Ye Shan and Dong Mei sat on the shafts, responsible for driving the carriage, quite careful and thorough. 。Soon, the carriage left the village and headed for the new capital. 。The old woman pushed open the car window and gazed at the busy farmers in the fields beside the road, as well as the cloudless blue sky. She let out a long sigh of relief. 。She turned her head and complained to her granddaughter, "Grandma finally knows why you were so excited every time we went out when you were little." 。"Being cooped up at home is really uncomfortable!" Jia Yin giggled, hugging her grandmother's arm, and the two of them enjoyed the scenery together. 。"Milk, when you're more settled, I'll take you on a trip when the opportunity is right." 。Let me have my brother Seven as your guide, he knows best where the good food and fun are. 。"Well then, we won't pay him wages. Just provide him with food and lodging every day." 。The old woman was coaxed into giggling. 。Shuilin also joined in the fun, quickly pleading, "Grandma, please take me with you!" 。I can run errands, cook, and even fight bad guys. 。" Even Grandma He quickly added, "Madam, you can't abandon old servant me!" 。Wherever you go, I will follow. 。"
Li Laotai laughed even happier and replied, "Good, all of you go, let's go together" 。Chatting and laughing all the way, they soon reached the Baiyun Temple. 。After the old woman went to the backyard, Jiayin sought out Peng Zhuangui to speak. 。Peng Zhanguai vaguely heard that the old lady in the house hadn't been feeling well recently, and he was worried for several days. 。Just now I saw that the old lady's complexion was good, and I was also happy. 。At this moment, he quickly took the account book to his employer and said that business had been booming recently, requesting an increase in orders. 。Jia Yin wore a wide-brimmed hat, feeling a bit stuffy. She said, "Although the weather is about to cool down, the autumn tigers are still quite fierce now. Don't add more..." 。"Everything is based on word-of-mouth. It's better to sell less silver than to damage our reputation because of quality issues." 。"Yes, Master, please rest assured" 。 。At this moment, a middle-aged man who looked like an official suddenly appeared outside the door and shouted loudly, "Where is the shopkeeper Come here quickly!"Peng Chuan hurriedly put on a smile and greeted him. 。d even a daughter who is a county princess. There's also a marquis backing them up.She simply let her nature take over, being lazy and content with taking care of her family's food, clothing, and shel...
