Yang Ruqing was dumbfounded. She couldn't have imagined that buying a house last time and dismissing someone would have such a big impact on Uncle Si. Once upon a time, Fourth Uncle was also ups and downs, when he was in power, his tail wagged to the sky, so proud that he didn't know his own name. When you were down on your luck, you could humble yourself more than anyone else, willing to stoop low. So why are you suddenly so fragile and vulnerable now? "Qinger, your grandfather has spoken to your father again, asking him to find an opportunity to inquire about you." Sun continued.
Yang Ruqing looked up at Sun Shi and said, "Does my grandfather want to find out what I think, and would he consider giving Fourth Uncle a new position?" Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text! ? Mrs. Sun was taken aback for a moment, then nodded. "You guessed it all already! I haven't even said anything yet!" Yang Ruqing smiled, "Even with my eyes closed, I know Grandpa still has his heart set on this piece." To be honest, it's not about whether I assign tasks to Fourth Uncle anymore. Even if I were to let go of my anger and give him a task, would he even be able to handle it with his current physical condition and mental state? Cao Bajie nodded in agreement, "This place at the tavern is definitely out of the question, and we can't even consider the transportation team or the medicinal herb gathering team." Sun said, "Your grandfather means to see if the academy can arrange a gatekeeper position for your fourth uncle." “Give him a little money every month, so that your uncle feels like he's not a useless person, and at least has some income to buy some rice.” Yang Ruqing couldn't help but laugh and said, "My grandpa is really daring to think!" "Doesn't he remember why his fourth uncle came to the clinic a while ago? Doesn't he remember why his fourth uncle was locked up alone in Lao Yang's backyard and not allowed to go out?" "He just beat up the villagers and went to apologize at their doorsteps, then asked him to watch the school gate?" "When the time comes and these children studying get sick, how am I going to explain it to their parents? And who would dare send their children to our school anymore? We might as well just close the doors!" Yang Ruqing's words left Sun Shi with a face full of sighs. “Your father also said the same thing to your grandfather, saying that guarding the door wouldn't work.” Mrs. Sun said. Yang Ruqing said, “As for Fourth Uncle finding work, when I go back to the village, I’ll go talk to my grandfather and tell him this isn't possible.” "But I can promise you this, when San'er gets married in a few years, I, as her elder sister, will take care of her dowry. Isn't that generous enough?" she said. Mrs. Sun's face was full of shock, and Cao Baimei even smacked her tongue in astonishment. "My goodness, taking on a dowry contract, Qing'er, you really are bold!" Cao Baime said. Yang Ruqing spread her hands, a helpless expression on her face: "There's no other way but to take the risk. Otherwise, my grandfather would keep holding a grudge and nagging me endlessly. Although I was innocent throughout this whole ordeal, even a victim in this situation, it seems like I'm the one who has to shoulder the blame." If I don't take the blame, my parents will eventually be nagged to death by grandpa. It's a difficult position to be in, caught between the two sides. Enough, enough. It all boils down to money, doesn't it? As long as silver can solve the problem, it's no problem at all! A dowry of this sort, following the customary standards of a household like this, would be stretched to its limit at three taels of silver. But Yang Ruohqing had another identity, so she added another seven taels to make a total of ten taels of silver. This is quite a generous dowry, I bet all the young men for miles around will be vying to marry the third daughter once they hear about it. As for Kang Xiazi and Gou Dan, they are two boys who have hands and feet. They will have to rely on themselves in the future, and are not within her cousin's responsibility. Because the medical clinic provided convenient treatment, the attending physician who treated Baby Luo would visit Baby Luo back in the courtyard two to three times every day after work. With the meticulous care of Yang Ruoqing and Sun Shi, especially with Yang Ruoqing, the mother, back, Luo Bao finally cooperated with the treatment. She took her medicine on time and obediently ate all kinds of meals. So this illness has recovered much better than the last time. The day after visiting the clinic, besides having a slight fever at night, I was almost fever-free during the day. The cough has also noticeably subsided, the child's complexion is gradually recovering, and their lips are becoming pinker. By the fourth day, the condition had improved by most. In this case, you can actually go home and slowly adjust yourself. But considering the child has a slight diarrhea, the doctor said it is likely related to taking medicine continuously these days, causing gastrointestinal upset. After all, Luo baby is only an eight-year-old girl, and her digestive system isn't very well-developed to begin with. So, after discussing with the Sun family, Yang Ruqing decided to observe at the clinic for another two days to be more assured. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! On the fifth day, people came from home. This time, it was still two carriages. A blacksmith named Luo was driving a carriage with two women from the countryside, wearing head scarves. They were Wang Cuilian and Da Sun. > In Yang Huazhong's carriage sat Old Yang and Xiao An. “Your grandfather was going to the county clinic a few days ago to visit the baby, but I stopped him. Today I heard that we were coming to the county town, and your grandfather said he would come no matter what.” Yang Huazhong told Yang Ruqing this. Yang Ruqing then said to Lao Yangtou: "Thank you, Grandpa, for your concern. I also appreciate you taking the long trip." > Old Yang waved his hand and said, "I came here by carriage, not tired. Where's the baby? What's the situation now?" Yang Ruqing said, "I'm playing with the second daughter of my second brother's family in the house. She's almost recovered from her illness. In two days, we will also return to the village." Old Yang nodded repeatedly, glanced around, and said, "Even if the wards in the medical hall were spacious, it would still be uncomfortable. Nowhere is as good as one's own home. It's best to go home!" Yang Ruqing nodded, handing Lao Yangtou over to Yang Huazhong and the others for entertainment. She turned and came to Sun's side. Here is the translation of your text: Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else! ? Mrs. Sun was pulling Xiao An while speaking, "Xiao An ah, in a few days it's the Lantern Festival, and New Year is almost here, why don't you just stay at home instead of going back to the county?" > Xiao An smiled and said, "My god, our Ministry of War hasn't gone on holiday yet. The last time I came back was specifically to go find my sister and ask for leave from the higher-ups." “Now that I’ve finished my business, it’s time for me to go back and continue my duty!” he said. Son Shi was startled, so that's what happened! "Well, have your superiors said when they'll be off for the holidays so you can go home for New Year's?" asked Mrs. Sun. Xiao An said, “It should be the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, but during the New Year's period, we also need to keep some people behind to work. We can't just lock up the place and have everyone go home for the holidays in case of an emergency.” Mrs. Sun nodded, a hint of worry on her face: "After a year serving, you shouldn't be staying here, should you?" Xia An smiled, just about to say something, when Yang Ruqing walked over. She imitated Xia An's tone and said to Sun, "My godmother, you really worry too much. Even if we keep Xia An here, we will definitely give him a vacation after the New Year to make up for his missed time." Genius one second: m. |
