However, at Yun Laowu's house, Zhao Mama's eyes were blazing with anger, wishing she could burn Wang Pozi and her eldest daughter-in-law to ashes.
While she was tidying up, she went back to the old house and asked Old Feng to hitch up the carriage and park it at the door. When she came back, she saw Wang holding a tattered bundle and rummaging through it. She didn't find anything, and finally pointed to Yang's clothes and said, "Your clothes still belong to the second son's family, right?"
Without saying a word, Yang went back into the house with her bundle.
Zhao's mother nearly coughed up blood, and cursed, "Who would want these tattered clothes? Even my servant's clothes are far better than these!"
Wang laughed contemptuously, "That's right. No matter how tattered our clothes are, they're still our own. No matter how fine your clothes are, they're a gift from your master! Your master gives you what you need, and he doesn't give you what he doesn't need! How can servants compare to being in charge?"
Zhao's mother sneered, swinging the jade bracelet on her wrist. "This old woman gets two taels of silver a month, eats well and drinks well, wears brocade and cloth shoes. I don't have to drink wild vegetable porridge or toil in the fields, and I don't have to watch my mother-in-law's face even when I drink water. When I gave birth, no one was there to deliver my child, and my whole family of four almost starved to death! No master would be so heartless as to let a servant starve to death. It's better to be a well-fed and well-clothed servant than to be born into such a peasant family!"
Wang's face turned pale and then red after being rebuked.
Dazhu's mother glanced enviously at the jade bracelet on Zhao Mama's hand and the silver hairpin in her hair. It has to be said, although this old hag is someone else's servant, she lives a life hundreds of times better than her, dressed in gold and silver.
That's two taels of silver a month! That's over twenty taels a year! Good heavens, maybe she should just sell herself too?
At this moment, Madam Yang came out after changing her clothes. She was wearing an even more tattered coarse blue dress, and then handed the clothes she had taken off to Xiuer.
Xiuer carried the clothes to a side room and said, "Second Aunt, thank you for the clothes. My mother said she was sorry that she couldn't wash them clean before returning them to you."
A voice came from inside, "It's alright, it's alright."
I choked up a little while listening.
Xiuer ran out, and Zhao Mama was already calling to Qiao'er, "Give me the child, quickly help your mother onto the carriage!"
Then he called out towards the door, "Old Feng, come and carry her father onto the carriage!"
Old Feng sighed and went into the house. A moment later, he carried Xiu'er's father out on his back and carefully put him into the carriage.
With tears in her eyes, Madam Yang nestled her husband's head in her arms, then tenderly embraced her three daughters.
After getting into the carriage, Zhao Mama sighed, "Don't worry, our young lady and young mistress are the best of families, they won't mistreat you and your children!"
Madam Yang choked back tears as she said, "Yes, we've met a benefactor!"
She said to Xiuer and Qiaoer, "Once we've settled in, you two should kowtow eight times to our benefactors on my behalf to express our gratitude."
The two daughters obediently replied, "Yes, Mother."
Suddenly, Zhao's mother clapped her hands. "Old Feng, wait a minute! We can't go straight to the county town!"
The mother and her daughters looked at Zhao's mother.
Zhao's mother said, "The baby's father is still unconscious. Miss said before that she would give him acupuncture. This baby still needs to drink goat milk, so you can't leave here for the time being. Besides, it's better to wait until you've finished your postpartum confinement and recovered before you go to help out at the shop."
Ms. Yang nodded, "I will follow Mother's arrangements."
So Zhao's mother got off the car and happened to run into Zhou and the Jiang siblings who were returning. She then expressed her concerns.
Xiao Youran immediately decided to settle the Yang family of five in the manor.
Not long after the court incident, the Princess and Yueyue left. She didn't know where they went, but she vaguely felt that their departure might be related to her.
There were many empty rooms in the manor, and it would be more than enough to set aside two rooms for the Yang family to stay in.
Furthermore, it helps Dr. Gu with his on-site acupuncture teaching.
Upon arriving at Dazhuangzi, Xiao Youran saw a large orange cat playing with three kittens from afar.
During this time, Xiaobai often came over to play. The three little lynxes were originally trembling with fear, but seeing that their little owner and Xiaobai interacted very well, they gradually became familiar with Xiaobai as well.
As for Xiaobai, it was the one who found and rescued the three kittens that day, so it considers itself their benefactor.
The boys in the family, Yun Tiankuang, along with Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu, were officially sent to the Yun family's clan school after February. The Yun family's girls, under the restraint of their older sisters, were all learning embroidery, and no one was playing with the kittens anymore.
So after the four kittens got to know each other, Xiaobai often led the three kittens to wander around the village.
The villagers didn't recognize Xiaobai as the "kitten" that Xiaoyou Ran had raised two months ago, because it was now almost the size of a small goat.
But because it had three kittens with it, the villagers assumed it was the kittens' mother, also a lynx. Lynxes are generally large, so the villagers could accept that.
These three kittens were raised by Tian Kuang's family. The children would often take the kittens out for walks, and the villagers got used to their presence.
So Xiao Youran jumped off the car in front of the manor, said a few words to Steward Zhang, and after being led inside to settle in, she skipped off to play with Xiao Bai and the others.
Butler Zhang was initially in a dilemma, but since Xiao Youran had just said, "We've brought a patient to the divine physician," he couldn't object.
After all, this manor's surname is Gu!
So they had no choice but to send someone in to make the arrangements.
When Wen Yuanbai learned of this, he did not object, but simply asked Steward Zhang to pass on a message to Xiao Youran.
"What?" Little Youran picked at her ear with her chubby little finger, wondering if she had misheard. "Uncle Butler, could you say that again?"
Butler Zhang repeated with a forced smile, "Young Master said he wants to eat fried dough sticks."
Xiao Youran stared with her mouth slightly open for a moment before nodding, "Okay, I'll have Aunt Zhao make it and send it over."
At this moment, Little White let out a "woof".
Xiao Youran looked at it, "You want to eat too?"
"Awooo!"
The three little ones next to him immediately chimed in.
"Meow meow meow".
"Waaaaah."
"Meow meow meow."
Xiao Youran thought for a moment, "Alright, I'll make sweet and sour pork ribs for you guys! And fried dough sticks for Senior Brother Da Bai!"
After saying that, he waved to Butler Zhang and skipped back towards the old house.
Butler Zhang: ...
So, his young master and these four cats—no, one tiger and three cats—are treated the same?
Nan Zhuo took two steps over, watched the person and four cats slowly walk away, and shook his head.
Butler Zhang asked, "What's going on?"
Nan Zhu blinked. "Tsk tsk, today it was just that Young Master Chen mentioned it, saying that his Zhao Mama's cooking skills all came from Miss You Ran."
