Chapter 38 The fat girl from the landlord’s house
"What is this nonsense!"
Mrs. Chang laughed and shook her head, "It's rare that these little bastards are sensible and know how to care for others. Zicuckoo, go to my warehouse and get some bird's nests, red jade ginseng, and some other mild and nourishing medicinal materials."
Then Madam Chang held Long Bao'er on her lap, touched her thin little hands, and said distressedly, "Yesterday you sent someone over to tell you about Long Bao'er's situation, so I thought that this red jade ginseng is the most suitable. It's exactly It is used to nourish the body after frostbite."
"Thank you, mother. I'm just thinking about what to use to replenish Long Bao'er." Chang Chun sat next to Madam Chang and kissed you, "It's better for you, mother."
"You girl, your son wants to kiss you, and you act coquettishly with your mother. Are you ashamed?"
"No matter how old I am, I am still your little cotton-padded jacket!"
Long Bao'er blinked and reached out to hold Chang Chun's sleeve, "Auntie, Long Bao'er also wants to be your little cotton-padded jacket."
Mrs. Chang and Chang Chun were both stunned, and then their eyes became softer.
Chang Chun pinched Long Bao'er's little face, "Does Long Bao'er know what a little cotton-padded jacket is?"
Long Baoer blinked, then lowered his head in frustration, "I don't know."
He also sighed.
At this time, Mrs. Chang and mother and daughter Chang Chun couldn't help laughing.
Mrs. Chang took out the key and handed it to Zijuan, "Go."
Zicuckoo is Mrs. Chang's eldest maid. After hearing the words, she responded and prepared to leave.
Just as the door curtain opened, the two daughters-in-law of the Chang family came in.
"Mom, I heard that my sister is here." Mrs. Chang smiled gently, "Sister, is this your little niece?"
"Sister-in-law, this is Long Bao'er. Long Bao'er calls her aunt." Chang Chun looked at Mrs. Chang, "Although this child calls me aunt, from now on she will be my biological daughter and Lei'er's biological sister."
"Auntie." Long Baoer was still held in Mrs. Chang's arms. He turned to look at Mrs. Chang and shouted with a smile.
"This is best. Poor child." Mrs. Chang did not show affection to Long Baoer like Mrs. Chang. She had a cold temperament.
But there was a lot of emotion in Long Baoer's eyes.
Coming in with Mrs. Chang was Mrs. Chang, the wife of the second brother Chang Chun.
But Chang Chun was obviously much colder towards this sister-in-law.
Just a slight nod is considered a greeting.
Mrs. Chang Er didn't care about Chang Chun's attitude. Seeing Zicuckoo walking towards them and leaving, she stopped them first and then looked at Mrs. Chang aggrievedly.
"Mom, Yingying was suffering from the cold a few days ago. Although she no longer coughs, she is still a little weak these days. My daughter-in-law really wants to ask you for some of that red jade ginseng to replenish Yingying's health..."
"Second younger brother and sister. Yingying's body has always been in good shape, but she has become a little rounder at a young age. This red jade ginseng is not necessary, as is eating more millet porridge."
Before Mrs. Chang could speak, Mrs. Chang spoke first.
Chang Chun wanted to say something sarcastic, but swallowed it back and looked at Mrs. Chang secretly.
It is the elder sister-in-law who speaks the right words. She is a married girl after all. If the second sister-in-law comes back and quarrels with the second brother, the second brother will also be upset. After all, this is not the first time that the second sister-in-law has fought with her.
Chang Chun really wanted to laugh when he thought of his sister-in-law saying that Yingying was a bit mellow.
This was too polite to say.
Something is a little rounded, almost too rounded.
This Yingying is actually the niece of Mrs. Cao, the second wife of Chang.
The youngest brother of the Cao family gave birth to twins. Their son Cao Zheng was born in poor health, so the family focused on that.
Mrs. Chang Er informed the old lady and asked if she could bring her little niece to her to raise.
Because Mrs. Chang Er had nothing to do, and the second oldest child in the Chang family was too lazy to take a concubine, she was indeed a little lonely.
The old lady thought about the folk saying that if you hold a child by your side, you can attract your own flesh and blood.
Furthermore, the Zhenyuan uncle's family has a great business. Although they are not prominent, they have never worried about money. Raising one more little girl is nothing.
So the old lady agreed without much thought.
Yingying has lived in Uncle Zhenyuan's Mansion for five years. From a thin and pitiful person, she has now become a fat and naughty person.
He was only seven years old, and he was even fatter than the stupid son of the landlord.
The Chang family's breakfast is very particular. It usually consists of porridge and soup with some eggs and meat, which is a hearty and comfortable meal.
But Mrs. Chang spoiled Yingying rotten. Don’t eat any porridge or soup as a staple food. Just four eggs and one chicken drumstick every morning, even if one egg is missing.
Chang Chun once came over to have dinner with his mother in the morning and heard about something.
I don’t know if the kitchenette was negligent that morning or if something went wrong. When breakfast was brought to Yingying, there were only three eggs left.
This time, Yingying was offended. She immediately jumped off the chair and asked the little girl who was serving her to kneel down. Then she went up and scratched her several times, asking the little girl to spit out the eggs for her.
When Mrs. Chang Er rushed over, the little girl's face was covered with flowers. She hid aside and cried without daring to cry loudly. Cao Yingying, on the other hand, was lying on the ground rolling back and forth.
Mrs. Chang Er coaxed and made wishes, but she couldn't get Cao Yingying to get up. She could only follow Cao Yingying's wishes and prepare to sell the little girl.
It's a pity that Mrs. Chang's second wife never has the final say in the Chang family. When the old lady found out about this, she frowned and went to the yard of the second room to take a look in disbelief.
Before he even got close, he heard the annoying yelling.
Not only Mrs. Chang frowned, but Chang Chun who came to join in the fun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Among the three siblings, none of them had ever dared to make such a fuss at home.
Not to mention beating and scolding the maid.
Uncle Zhenyuan has always been kind to his servants. Moreover, if the maid made a mistake, there is no way for the young lady to scratch and scratch her by herself.
That time Mrs. Chang finally saw what Cao Yingying was like in private, and her expression suddenly turned ugly.
The Chang family has a big business, so naturally they have a few chicken legs and eggs. But if word of this style spreads, the Chang family will lose face even more.
This little girl who was originally quite pretty was actually raised to be so obese. She was already ugly, but she still had such a naughty temper.
Mrs. Chang and Chang Chun, who came to watch the fun, simply didn't know whether Mrs. Chang really wanted to raise this niece, or whether she deliberately raised the child to death.
Later, we found out that the reason was that one of the eggs was missing when loading the dishes in the kitchen. The cook was coming over with eggs, and a commotion started here.
In the end, the little maid was taken away by Mrs. Chang. Mrs. Chang was reprimanded and ordered to copy three volumes of Buddhist scriptures.
And there is no need to prepare them separately in the large kitchen.
In the words of the old lady, the meals prepared at home every day are all treated equally. If you can eat it, you can eat it. If you can't eat it, you can find a way to eat it yourself.
Mrs. Chang Er was choked so much, and even though the servants had their heads lowered, their ears were bent to listen, she was so ashamed that she didn't even show up for half a month.
