Chapter 393 He is the deputy commander, not the steward
Lady Zhou lost her child. As a mother herself, Cui Si felt very sympathetic towards her. She even gave her a lot of compensation because she had some of her own reasons for losing her child.
Madam Zhou chose to keep the family harmonious and peaceful. She did not interfere, respected and blessed her, and promised that if she had any difficulties, or wanted to seek justice for herself and her children, she would help.
But less than half a month later, Madam Zhou came again and said that her sister-in-law Wang Xuniang was pregnant. She hoped that Cui Si could give her a chance and let Wang Xuniang take over her previous job as a wet nurse.
Cui Si's face changed at that moment and she immediately rejected her.
She had taken a fancy to Madam Zhou and Madam Gan because they had harmonious families and were kind and gentle. But what kind of person was Wang Xuniang? She had eloped with someone in the past, and after returning, she fought with her sister-in-law for a bite of food. When she failed to get it, she pushed her sister-in-law to have a miscarriage.
Even if Cui Si was crazy, she would never leave such a person with her child.
But perhaps it was because Cui Si had promised too many things to Madam Zhou and the Wang family before, and now they were gone. The family was unwilling to accept it, so Madam Zhou came to ask for a meeting every few days.
Madam Zhou came here with her mother-in-law, with her husband Wang Chuanjia, and with Wang Xuniang.
At the beginning, Cui Si still gave her some face to meet her, but after two or three times, she just disappeared.
"Who did she come with?"
“I came here alone.”
Cui Si said, "If she is hungry, then let her go to the guest garden to eat. If she has other matters, then let her go back."
The maid took the order and left.
Cui Si yawned, feeling a little tired. "I'll go back and rest for a while. Oh, by the way, clear out a yard and move the embroiderer's things there. When she comes, ask her to make clothes there."
After saying this, she was about to get up.
Yan Xingchuan reached out to help her, but she was still a little reluctant.
"Are you still angry?" Yan Xingchuan asked her in a slower voice.
"What do you think?" Cui Si glanced at him and asked back unhappily, not knowing what else he could do except make her angry.
Really, it would be better if he didn't show up.
Yan Xingchuan hummed and carefully discussed with her, "Then please don't be angry. If you're still angry, you can beat me or scold me."
"That's enough." Cui Si sighed, "I'm not angry anymore. Why should I be angry with you? As long as you haven't really done anything to offend me, I won't be really angry with you."
"That's good." Yan Xingchuan breathed a sigh of relief. Although he knew that he was in the other person's control, he still had to coax her carefully.
He suddenly remembered that when he was with her just now, Yun Gang was worried about whether there would be a trap. He said at that time that he was not afraid even if there was a trap, and even if it was a trap, he would be willing to jump in.
What he feared most was that there wasn't even a pit.
"I'll sleep with you for a while. I'm a little tired after running around these days. It's time to have a good rest."
Cui Si did not refuse. She nodded and let him help her walk to the dormitory.
Yanzhi and Songlu looked at each other and didn't follow.
When the two of them returned to their room, if they were called, they would go, and if not, they would wait outside.
Song Lu thought for a moment and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to see what to prepare for my wife's lunch. She'll eat it when she wakes up. Oh, I need to make two more dishes. My master should also have lunch with us."
Yanzhi said, "Then you should go see Madam Zhou as well. If she's still there, tell her not to come to her house again regarding Wang Xuniang's matter."
"My wife will never agree to that. If she comes too often, she will become displeased with her, and then the little friendship we have left will be gone."
Song Lu nodded: "Okay, I'll go take a look."
.
Madam Zhou naturally didn't want to go back immediately, so she said she was hungry and wanted to eat something. The maid invited her to the guest garden, then went to the kitchen to pick out some food to send over.
Madam Zhou always felt that something was different today. She felt a little nervous from time to time while following the maid. Even when she sat down at this moment, her heart was beating non-stop.
She tightened the handkerchief between her fingers, and her heart became more and more panicked.
"Hey! Over here!" When Song Lu just walked to the door of the reception garden, she heard someone shouting. She turned around and saw it was Yun Gang. She raised her eyebrows and walked over.
"Deputy Commander, what are you doing here, idle?"
"What do you mean idle?" Yun Gang almost rolled his eyes at her. How could he be idle? His master had gone to accompany his wife, and it was his responsibility to deal with the rest of the matters.
He is the deputy commander, the deputy commander of Yanyun Guard who rides on horseback to the battlefield and kills countless enemies, not a butler!
"Who is this person?"
Song Lu thought about it and thought that it was not something that needed to be concealed, so he explained the reason for the matter and then could not help but said:
"My wife sympathized with her situation and didn't count the money she had taken before. She even gave her half of it. But she wasn't satisfied and actually wanted to climb up the pole."
She didn't even think about what kind of person her sister-in-law was. How could Cui Si let such a person be her child's wet nurse? She was making a lot of trouble and was hated by others. Why bother?
Yun Gang said, "Perhaps he felt that Princess Wang was kind-hearted, so he thought that if he begged her, Princess Wang would soften her heart and agree. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, everything would be worth it."
"That's true."
Yun Gang asked her, "Do you want me to ask her to leave? Princess Wang couldn't bear to say harsh words to her, and she dared to pester her again and again because she relied on Princess Wang's sympathy. But if the master doesn't agree, she probably won't dare to come."
Song Lu quickly said, "Don't talk nonsense. They don't know who the lady is."
"That's easy. Just tell her husband that he's back. She's pregnant and won't be seeing anyone. If there's anything, ask her husband to talk to her husband."
That's a good idea.
Song Lu nodded: "Then you can wait a while before going. My wife will ask someone to send some food to her in the kitchen so she can eat. I will go to the warehouse and give her some things to take back."
Yun Gang was shocked: "You are so kind."
Song Lu glared at him and said, "That's because you men have no sympathy. Her child is five months old. If she had waited another two months, she would have been able to raise the child. You men just close your eyes and sigh for her pity, but you don't know her pain."
"If she hadn't been courting death and trying to push her sister-in-law over, even if my wife wasn't in Yunzhou City, she would have someone take care of her."
The sufferings of the world are too far away for them to see.
But if they see someone suffering right before their eyes, they will naturally help if it is just a small effort.
What a pity, it was Madam Zhou who was confused.
