A retired aunt traveled through time and space, and her daughter became rich!
Chapter 20 The Little Pills That the Noble Takes
For the first meal of the day, not only was Aunt Su’s table filled with breakfast made in the kitchenette.
The other servants in the yard also had a hot and delicious breakfast.
Even Qian Laosan and his two boys who worked in the stable received the hot buns that were delivered to them.
Qian Laosan washed his hands, looked at the half basin of buns on the small table, and swallowed.
He walked out of the room and shouted to the two boys who were working hard to cut grass.
"Come and wash your hands before eating!"
The two boys responded, and their feet were as fast as the wind, and they were right in front of his eyes.
Qian Laosan took one first and said, "Eat it! Don't fight over it! Three for each person!"
Before he had finished speaking, the two boys had already taken one each and started to devour it.
Qian Laosan originally wanted to curse, but when he smelled the fragrance, he couldn't wait any longer. After taking a bite, his eyes lit up and he started chewing it in big mouthfuls.
This is too delicious!
The three of them ate the delicious food. A head popped in from outside the door and glanced at the buns on the table with a sly look.
Qian Laosan glanced at him from the corner of his eye and said, "Gao Laoer, what are you doing there stealthily?"
Gao Laoer also worked in the stable, as he was Ji's companion. Although Gao Laoer was always sneaky and cunning, he had good jobs, such as driving the carriage to send his masters out to banquets, and so on.
Not only are there subsidies, but if you serve well, you can also get rewards.
In the early days, Gao Laoer lived a much happier life than Qian Laosan.
Even when going to the big kitchen to get food, Gao Lao Er got two more spoonfuls of salted beans than Qian Lao San!
But since the old man passed away, everything has changed.
First of all, he was in mourning at home, so there were fewer occasions for him to go out in a carriage.
Gao Laoer stopped receiving this income.
Next, my wife cut back on spending, and the expenses of each room were reduced.
Wouldn’t the servants’ food be even worse?
Not only did it taste terrible, but the male servants, who originally had bigger appetites, couldn't even eat enough.
But at this moment, the old lady's companions were revealed.
As for Qian Laosan, his meals were all delivered by the maids in the old lady's courtyard.
I bought it outside a few days ago.
Even though it was just a pancake of two jin of flour and a few spoonfuls of vegetables, at least it tasted delicious and was filling enough to fill you up.
Two boys were sent here two days ago. Although they are only half-grown, they can still help with some chores!
Especially today, I heard that the old lady opened a small kitchen in her courtyard. From now on, meals for all of the old lady's companions will be delivered by the old lady!
Look, this pot of buns that was delivered looks plump and hot.
In the morning, Gao Laoer only received two cold, hard multi-grain pancakes and a spoonful of pickles.
It was depressing that he didn't eat well or feel full, but seeing Qian Laosan and the others eating more deliciously than he did made him even more anxious.
"Ah! Are you eating? It smells so good!"
Gao Laoer simply walked in with a smile on his face, his eyes fixed on the three remaining buns in the basin.
However, since they are all working in the stable, who doesn’t know who?
Qian Laosan quickly grabbed two and gave one to each of the two boys. He grabbed the last one with his free hand and took a big bite without stopping.
"Well! Well! Yes, that's right, our old lady is kind-hearted! She gives us good food!"
Envy, right?
Is it right to be envious?
Usually, this guy relies on the fact that he is the lady's companion and always pushes the dirty and tiring work to him.
Now that he has finally managed to surpass Gao Laoer, he naturally has to look down on this guy!
Gao Laoer turned his eyes away from the empty basin and swallowed involuntarily.
"Humph! Stingy!"
He spat angrily and walked away.
There's no advantage to be gained anyway, so why is he still talking to Qian Lao San?
In the back room of the old lady's courtyard, the little maids were holding delicious buns, eating with sparkling eyes.
Mrs. Zhou came in with half a bowl of soup and found her daughter Erni in the room.
"Come on, Erni, take this medicine!"
Erni quickly swallowed the last bite of the bun, obediently took the bowl from Zhou Pozi's hand, and carefully picked up the tiny pill in Zhou Pozi's hand and swallowed it carefully.
It turned out that the old lady saw that the corners of her mouth were red and swollen that day, so she gave her five small pills and asked her to take one pill a day.
Mrs. Zhou thought the pills were valuable and was afraid that Erni would lose them out of carelessness, so she kept them for her daughter and came over every day to supervise Erni taking the medicine.
When Erni took the small pill, the other three little girls in the room stared at her.
"Er Ni, what does the medicine the old lady gave you taste like?"
"Is it bitter? Does it taste like the bitter medicine soup?"
Erni swallowed the soup and medicine in one gulp.
Hearing her companions' questions, she thought about it carefully.
"It has no taste, not bitter! Not bitter at all!"
When her grandmother was sick, she was served bitter medicine and secretly tasted it.
Oh my god, it's as bitter as bile!
Didn’t you see that when her grandmother drank the medicine, her brows were frowned and her mouth was open, and after drinking it, she even took a few sips of water to clear her throat!
But the pill the old lady gave me has no bitterness at all when I drink it!
Mrs. Zhou ignored the three maids' chattering questions.
Instead, he asked Erni to stand still and observe the corners of her mouth carefully.
"Look how good the old lady is to you. She feeds you such good food and gives you medicine for the nobles! If you don't learn the rules and do things properly, you'll be worse than pigs and dogs!"
Although Erni is her own daughter, she is busy and nagging all day long. How can she have the time to look at the corner of Erni's mouth?
If the old lady hadn’t seen it, she wouldn’t have noticed it!
Erni nodded quickly, "Mother, I know."
Even though the corners of her mouth seemed to be pulled by a string, they were a little swollen and painful.
But she was the only one among the four who got the old lady's medicine, and the other three secretly envied her!
On the fourth day, Mrs. Zhou gave Erni the fourth pill.
After Erni finished eating, she pulled Erni to the window and looked at it carefully in the sunlight.
"Huh? The corners of your mouth don't seem that red anymore."
The three little girls next to them also interrupted.
"Aunt Zhou, your Erni's mouth looks much better now!"
"Yes! How can the medicine given by the old lady to the nobleman not be good?"
