Chapter 60 When you do good deeds, you must leave a name
Qiu Ju and Niu Jinbao had lived a wonderful life since they moved into the new house prepared by Song Qingci. In addition to the endless work to do every day, there were also the sounds of beatings and scolding that came from time to time.
Song Qingci didn't ask specifically, but he couldn't help but be curious about the baby Yinxing.
She really wanted to see what the young lady would choose, so she would go and ask whenever she had time.
Today, Qiu Ju was slapped by Niu Jinbao. Tomorrow, all the food that Qiu Ju could eat was snatched away by Niu Jinbao. The day after tomorrow, Niu Jinbao kicked Qiu Ju in the stomach again.
If it weren't for the pregnancy-preserving medicine given by the young lady, the child would have been kicked to death by his own father.
Anyway, only the first two or three days were normal, and afterwards it became more and more lively day by day.
One day, more than half a month later, Yin Xing suddenly ran to Song Qingci in a panic and said, "Madam, something bad has happened."
Song Qingci didn't even raise his eyelids, "Your young lady is fine."
"No, that's not what I meant." Yinxing was in a hurry. She wanted to explain but felt that the more she explained, the more confusing it would be. So she just said directly, "Qiuju, Qiuju and Niu Jinbao are both dead."
Song Qingci put down the book in his hand, looked at Yin Xing and asked, "When did it happen?"
"It should be last night. When the stableman found him this morning, he was already cold."
"How did he die?"
"I heard that Niu Jinbao was stabbed to death with a pair of scissors. There were many holes on his body. Qiu Ju hanged herself. She was hanged on the beam of their house." Yinxing didn't see it with her own eyes. She was timid and didn't dare to look.
Song Qingci was a little surprised. She originally thought that Qiu Ju would be the first to come to her for help, but she didn't expect that her choice would be more decisive.
The person who was willing to betray the Lord for the sake of his child ended up giving up his own child.
Song Qingci intended to let the child go, but his mother was unwilling to let him go.
Well, I don’t have to suffer in this world anymore.
"Let the butler take care of the afterlife."
After giving the order, Song Qingci stopped caring about it. She had already put the matter behind her.
Compared to the investigation into the matter of Li being driven to the capital, these things are not even an appetizer.
In the blink of an eye, Li's mother and son had been living in the General's Mansion for more than a month.
The people sent by Shan Li have already figured out who are the people who have been harassing the Li family in Beishui City.
There is a gang called Qi Sha in the underworld, which is quite powerful. Unlike Feng Xue Lou, the people in Qi Sha are all a bunch of profit-seeking bastards.
Use people's money to eliminate disasters for others.
No matter what the task is, as long as they take it on, they will complete it.
In the martial arts world, Qi Sha is both loved and feared.
Naturally, Li has no such value, so the only one left is Ma Yuan who is already dead.
There has been no news from the people who went to investigate Ma Yuan.
It is really difficult to find any clues about a person who has been dead for three years. It still requires some patience.
Song Qingci, who had nothing to do for the time being, simply set up a new pharmacy in Chixiao Courtyard.
This way, she would have a proper place to make medicine and refine drugs. The matter of the space was a secret between her and Shan Li. So she had to have a place to cover up her medicine making.
It must be said that after two cleanups, the people left in Chixiaoyuan were still very good at their job. They built the pharmacy she wanted in just a few days.
Song Qingci took a look around and was very satisfied.
Although it is not as good as the ones in her space, it is already top-notch in this era.
As a human being, you can't ask for too much. It's not advisable to ask for everything.
She has not been idle these days. She found some ancient medical books and studied them according to her needs.
Song Qingci's talent for learning is unquestionable.
She didn’t learn Chinese medicine well in her previous life, but now she is becoming more and more proficient in it.
In order to master the skill of taking the pulse more proficiently, she pulled almost everyone in the Chixiao Courtyard over to have their pulse taken.
Except for two who are really weak, the rest are still very healthy, but their spleen and stomach are generally weak. It may be related to their irregular meals. How can they eat on time when they have to work for the master? This is normal.
Song Qingci prescribed a decoction to strengthen the spleen and stomach and gave it to Yinping, asking her to give it to the people in Chixiaoyuan to drink after lunch every day. She also personally arranged a duty roster.
The servants in Chixiao Court were arranged into shifts, and the times for breakfast, lunch and dinner were all scheduled.
Unless there are any unexpected circumstances, no one will miss the meal.
The two weak ones had the disease brought from their mothers' wombs. In a nutshell, the poor have developed rich diseases.
Song Qingci didn't feel comfortable continuing to enslave them, so he found the housekeeper, released the two men's indentures, and gave each of them an extra ten taels of silver as a resettlement fee.
A man could use the ten taels of silver to marry a wife and live a good life. For a woman, the ten taels of silver would be her dowry.
With such a dowry, she can marry into an ordinary family.
Song Qingci's move undoubtedly caused a huge shock in the entire circle of servants in the General's Mansion.
Those who were previously chosen to serve in Chixiaoyuan but were unwilling to do so and did not want to sit on the bench in Chixiaoyuan are now regretting it very much.
I regret my short-sightedness and the money I spent on connections.
This Chixiao Courtyard is not a cold bench at all, it is now a hot commodity. I heard that as long as you are loyal to the master and don't talk too much, you can do your job with peace of mind. Is this a requirement? ! Isn't this how you should do your job well?
Moreover, everyone gets double the monthly interest. Double! Who would complain about having too much money?
Now the master is still recuperating for them. If they are really not in good health, they will be released to the An family for money. This is really something that I dare not dream of.
In the country of Dachen, it is very rare for people who sell themselves into slavery to be released by their masters.
Basically, they were slaves for their entire lives until they died. Even if they got married and had children, the children would still be slaves.
A kind family could arrange for you to stay on a farm in your old age. But if you meet an unkind family, you will have to work hard until you die.
My descendants will also do this until they die.
If the incident between Yinqiu and Qiuju shocked people in Chixiaoyuan, then Song Qingci's subsequent actions were to win people's hearts.
Although Song Qingci simply wanted to practice at first, the subsequent developments were intentional on her part.
Now that she has done everything, why not do a little more? This way, not only can she achieve her goal, but she can also gain a good reputation.
The one who did good deeds without leaving a name was Lei Feng, not her, Song Qingci.
