She couldn't bear to see her sister-in-law like this, she was so stupid! Only aware of immediate interests, short-sightedness. If you hold gold and silver in your arms and cry for poverty every day, if you want to cry for poverty, you should hide your things secretly before you come out and cry.
The second sister-in-law's family is really poor, don't you think so? Nothing.
The mother was partial to her eldest grandson. When the family was separated, most of the family property was given to the eldest brother. The eldest brother was soft-hearted, the eldest sister-in-law was mean and calculating, and the second sister-in-law was submissive and soft as mud. She had no desire to return to this family.
"I see that my aunt has lost energy and blood and has been suffering from lung disease for a long time. I still need to continue taking medicine, otherwise the long-term illness will be severe and serious. Once the disease occurs, the medicine will not work." With just one glance, Xiao Ming could tell that Second Sister-in-law Lu was a chronically ill person. People, medicine jars.
Xiao Ming's kindness left Second Sister Lu at a loss as to what to do. She thanked her silently and didn't mention buying medicine. She just looked at Xiao Ming inadvertently, showing a slightly doubtful expression.
No matter what, Xiao Ming took the money very much. No matter how resentful Mrs. Lu was, some people just wanted you to pay less even if you received it cheaply. It would be better not to give you a penny. .
You can never satisfy a greedy person. Such a person will be dissatisfied with you and even hold a grudge against you if they don't get what they want. They will slander you at all costs, ruin your reputation, and completely forget the kindness you have shown her.
A typical example of showing favor to rice and enmity to fight against rice.
After Xiao Ming left, Lu Da went to the drug store to grab medicine. Aunt Lu had a gloomy face, kicked away the cats that were meowing at her feet, and cursed: "You are calling the soul, you eat and drink well every day." I provide you with everything, and I don’t expect you to repay me. I just find some troubles to annoy people, so what’s the use of raising you? It’s better to die early.”
With a vigorous kick, he used 10% of his strength to kick the cat far away. The cat screamed twice and climbed out of the window to escape. It was so pitiful that a person would have to do something wrong.
After Mrs. Lu said that, she didn't care about the people in the house, went straight into her house, and slammed the door.
The rest of the people look at me and I look at you, and they all know that my sister-in-law is acting like a monster again.
The second sister-in-law Lu felt that her face was dull, and the elder sister-in-law loved to make trouble, but she did not know that no matter what the outcome, she would always be a joke in the eyes of others.
She silently helped the old man go to the toilet, cleaned his hands and face, and then took his daughter out after he fell asleep.
All this was in Lu Sanmei's eyes. She was not welcome in the host's house and she knew she had no intention of being in another house, so she naturally followed her out.
Second Sister-in-law Lu walked out of the door and saw Doctor Xiao, who had been treating the patient just now, standing by the wall in the alley. He just looked up at a jujube tree in trance.
The wind blows the fallen leaves, the clothes are fluttering, and the hair is fluttering. Standing under the leafy jujube tree, she is like Xuannv descending to the earth, elegant and elegant, with a faint fairy spirit, and a perfect and carefully carved face. She is the most beautiful she has ever seen. of people.
It was just that beautiful profile, with a vague outline that was familiar to her. Sister-in-law Lu thought about it for a while, and slowly approached with her daughter.
"Doctor Xiao."
Xiao Ming came back to her senses, looked at the person in front of her, and nodded lightly as a response.
The second sister-in-law looked at the silent and gentle man in front of her and asked anxiously: "Is Doctor Xiao's nickname Duoduo?"
Duoduo?
Xiao Ming shook his head.
"no."
"Girl, let's go!" Li'er shouted over there, still holding a jar of wine she just bought. In just a moment, Ming Sheng, as the steward, had already negotiated a business deal in the wine shop. According to Xiao Ming ordered a lot of wine.
Watching Xiao Ming go away, Sister-in-law Lu felt a sense of loss in her heart. Lu Lian next to her asked curiously: "Mom, who is Duoduo?"
"She is the daughter of your Uncle Xiao's family. She has been away for seven or eight years."
Of course Lu Lian didn't remember Uncle Xiao's daughter. She was only one or two years old at that time.
"Why do you suddenly think of them?" Lu Sanmei vaguely remembered the Xiao family. After she got married, she occasionally went back to her natal family and saw the two twins who were fostered in her natal family. At that time, the Lu family had not yet separated. The mother received money from the Xiao family every month and asked the second sister-in-law to take care of the two children.
It was many years ago, and she had long forgotten what the two children looked like. Only the bright smile on her mother's face when she received the money left a deep impression on her.
"When I saw that Doctor Xiao and Duoduo were about the same age, I suddenly thought of them. I wonder how they are doing now?"
"Who knows? It must be good for them to follow his eldest brother." Lu Sanmei mumbled nonchalantly.
Life is hard and who has time to care about others.
"Yes." Sister-in-law Lu nodded in agreement.
It was already evening when Xiao Ming and the others took the carriage back, so they went straight home without going back to Xinglin.
At Xiao's house, Nanny Zhu has been waiting for a long time. She is having tea with Yi's mother and chatting about the gift Bai Xiaoyu brought back.
"Our old lady used the ginseng pills and canned fruits brought back by Miss Eight. Her sleep has been better these days. She takes one ginseng pill every five days. The girls in the old lady's room all remember the time to let the old lady take it, but the canned fruit is We need to eat something every day. The scented tea and snowy face mud for the ladies are also the best. The freckles on the fourth lady’s face have faded a lot after applying the snowy mud. There are also wine and fruits for the masters and young masters. They agreed on the wine.”
Aunt Zhu was smiling happily. Different from the embarrassment that day in Xinglin, she was dressed decently today and treated the Xiao family with extra solemn respect in her words. She did not act like a slave to everyone at all.
While chatting with Yi's mother, those who didn't know it thought they were two old sisters who had known each other for ten or twenty years.
Mother Yi didn't know that the small sensation caused by Bai Xiaoyu's return that day was not only Bai Xiaoyu's belongings, but also the gifts given to the entire Bai family.
Ginseng pills, canned food, fruit wine, and snowy mud are all as valuable as gold. Canned food and fruit wine are better and can be bought on the market, but now new products are not coming in, and major stores have already run out of stock. , like snow-faced mud, is circulated privately. They have only heard of such a top-quality beauty and beauty product. It is rare in quantity and very precious. It cannot be bought with money. Now it is given by Bai Xiaoyu as a meeting gift. After the Bai family recognized the invitation, they realized that they could not help but look at Xiao Ming in a different light.
"As long as the masters and ladies in your house like them. These are all home-produced. Although this year's new products have not arrived yet, the girl prepared them for the family last year, saying that they were left for the girls and boys at home to enjoy. , these are not worth anything to us, if the house needs them in the future, just ask for them."
Aunt Zhu...
Stayed! !
It's a little unbelievable.
Are these made by the Xiao family themselves? The fruit wine and cans on the market are also produced by the Xiao family. This...
Aunt Zhu couldn't stand it anymore, she smiled hard, look at what they said, it's not worth it, but it made the Bai family look like country bumpkins!
She originally thought that the Xiao family was just an ordinary medical family who got lucky and met such a noble person as Princess Linlang. Now it seems that the Xiao family is also very secretive and has a profound background.
Talented, handsome, and wealthy.
No wonder the eighth girl is pampered by the Xiao family. The gold and silver ornaments are higher than the mountains and more than the sea. Even a well-established family cannot pamper such an exquisite daughter. No wonder the eighth girl doesn't want to go back. If it were her, she wouldn't want to go back either. .
Bah bah bah! That's not what she meant.
