Chapter 16: close your red eyelids

Chapter 16 Close your red eyelids

Ignoring the sadness of the aunt and grandma, Mrs. Xie stared at the simple purse in Mrs. Wang's hand with only the word "Ping An" embroidered on it, her eyes were red, and she wished she could grab it to see how much money was inside.

Ms. Wang clutched the purse, there was nothing hard inside, presumably they were all bank notes, and said: "Mom, since you still let me be the head of the house, then I will be the master of the house?"

Old lady Qin nodded wearily.

"Sister-in-law, take a look at how much money is here? Will I have to buy two more servants?" Mrs. Xie said anxiously.

Mrs. Wang glanced at her, but did not open her purse, and only watched old lady Qin report back: "The accident happened suddenly at home, and there is no property. Yesterday, my daughter-in-law first asked Uncle Li to find a child, and first gave it to the third younger siblings." I hired a nanny, and I hired two rough maids to do the chores and do the laundry."

"A nanny?" Mrs. Qin frowned.

Wang said: "Because it's too late, I can only find this one who is suitable. She has just given birth to a child for two months, and she is in good health. It is enough to feed two children. I have asked Uncle Li to ask someone to help her." Go find another suitable one, and Ju'er beside you only serves the third sibling."

The old lady Qin nodded: "Yes. She gave birth to this pair of Qixingzi prematurely, and her vitality was greatly damaged. When she couldn't leave others, she asked Ju'er to stay by her side and serve her. She also had to order the kitchen to cook more for her. Those who make up the body must sit the confinement well, as for us, we can eat almost."

The youngest daughter-in-law didn’t come in time, and hurt the mother’s body, so it’s right to be tight to her, otherwise the body won’t be able to take care of her, what should the third child do in the future?

Mrs. Xie was a little anxious, what about them?

"Sister-in-law, are we going to buy some girls to serve?"

"Second brother and sister, the Qin family was raided and all the property was sealed up. Where did we get the money? Are you looking at this?" Wang raised the purse in his hand and said, "Father and my husband and uncle are all here. On the road of exile, you have to use silver everywhere, big and small, you have to chew, and you have to find ways to increase revenue and reduce expenditure, how can you make big money buy people to serve?"

Old Mrs. Qin glared at Mrs. Xie with a displeased look on her face, and said coldly: "If you can't bear this hardship, go back to Xie's house. If you come to Xie's house, you won't be short of a bite."

Ms. Xie's face turned pale, and she knelt down begging for mercy: "Mother, my daughter-in-law doesn't dare to have such thoughts at all. My daughter-in-law is the daughter-in-law of the Qin family when she is born, and she is also a ghost of the Qin family when she dies."

Before she got married, she was living under the hands of her stepmother. It was because of this aunt's fate and second master Qin's eyes that she was able to marry into the Qin family and enjoyed a good life for several years.

That's the case, she also has a concubine in her room, but this can't affect her position in the main room, but if she goes back to her mother's house, her stepmother doesn't like it, and her brothers don't kiss her, she will be dead.

The old lady Qin snorted heavily: "Since that's the case, accept your heart. If you have hands and feet, you can't take care of yourself? You can earn money, and you are willing to buy a few maids to serve you. That is Your ability. But the money is for the family to spend and eat, and more importantly, it needs to be paid for by your father-in-law. You should calm your heart for me as soon as possible, close your red eyelids, and don't think about this little money. .”

"Yes." Xie lowered her head timidly.

The old lady Qin was about to speak again, when Qin Mingbao, the granddaughter of Sanfang, ran up crying, saying that her mother was not well, and everyone's expressions changed dramatically.
