Chapter 378 Complain

"What kind of disturbance can you say?" Father Gu smiled, "Just stay here to recuperate, don't think too much about it."

"Yes, you should avoid worrying when you are sick." Mother Gu advised, "Just rest here."

"Thank you." Old Man Zhang said gratefully.

After everyone left, old man Zhang saw Zhang Yingzi looking around the room.

She looked at her room again.

The servants of Gu's house tidied up with great care. Although there were no valuable furnishings in the room, the objects displayed were all exquisite and beautiful.

It’s really hard for Zhang Yingzi to make a mistake.

Zhang Yingzi curled her lips and walked into Old Man Zhang's room. Seeing that there was no one else in the room, she complained: "This Mrs. Gu behaves very luxuriously, but the furnishings in the room arranged for us are all cheap. What's wrong? ?Are you worried that we might fall and touch each other, or are you worried that we might fall in love?"

Old man Zhang opened his mouth to talk about Zhang Yingzi, but couldn't help but coughed first.

He pointed at Zhang Yingzi, who was coughing violently, out of breath, and her face was red from holding back.

For a moment, I couldn't say a word.

The maid brought by Zhang Yingzi hurriedly poured water for Old Man Zhang.

Old man Zhang drank water, his throat felt better, and he said to Zhang Yingzi: "Yingzi, how did you become like this now?"

"The Gu family has no responsibility to us, but they are willing to take me into the house to recuperate. Mrs. Gu even begged the Crown Princess for my illness." Old man Zhang said, "What kind of noble person is the Crown Princess? But General Gu is only four How can you be so close to the Crown Princess?"

"Mrs. Gu obviously went to the Crown Princess shamelessly because of my illness." Old man Zhang coughed twice more and took a few deep breaths. "I am afraid that General Gu's future is also involved."

"Now you are also a person who has read books and learned etiquette." Old man Zhang said, "How can you not know the fourth-rank official and be able to hire an imperial doctor at every turn? That is the ability of a first-rank official."

"What does a fourth-grade person mean in this capital? Who cares about those high-ranking officials and nobles?" Old man Zhang is no longer the ignorant person he used to be. "Mrs. Gu went to beg the Crown Princess. If word spreads, everyone will laugh at Gu. Madam, you are so shameless!"

"Mrs. Gu has done this for us, but you use some furnishings to make excuses?" Old Man Zhang shook his head in disappointment, "Besides, I don't see anything bad about these furnishings. They are all exquisite and elegant objects, which make people feel happy when they look at them. Pleasure.”

"Kang, this is not our house. The master can show off whatever he likes. Is it our turn to point fingers?" Old man Zhang said angrily, "Kang, you haven't seen Mr. Gu or Mrs. Gu either. With everything on display, why don’t you know that the Gu family is not someone who would buy such luxury items every day?”

"Looking at a fourth-rank general, how luxurious do you want them to be? Didn't Mr. teach you that the officials of the current dynasty all have systems. Regardless of the size of the house or the furnishings in the home, they cannot go beyond the rules. ." Old man Zhang said.

"Earlier in the inn, you first complained about Mrs. Gu's refusal to hire an imperial doctor for me. Now that Mrs. Gu has sacrificed her own face to seek help from the Crown Princess, you have nothing to say, right? Why are you still finding fault with the people in the house? Isn’t the ornament maker here?”

"Yingzi!" Old Man Zhang said as if he hated iron, "Be grateful and don't be that white-eyed wolf!"

"Dad, what do you mean by this? Are you blaming me?" Zhang Yingzi said, "I went through all the trouble to bring you to Beijing for treatment, but you didn't say a word of good about me, and now you blame me for this and that?" "Okay?" "I hope Mrs. Gu can ask the imperial doctor to treat you, just to make you better?" Zhang Yingzi cried in grievance, "What can I do wrong?"

"Kang, it was us who saved General Gu and we were kind to him. Mrs. Gu also said it herself. If you encounter any difficulties, you can tell her. She boasted that Haikou would help us. Now we have found him , shouldn’t she fulfill her promise?”

"If you don't have that ability, don't brag about Haikou." Zhang Yingzi looked unconvinced.

"Dad, don't always put yourself in an inferior position." Zhang Yingzi said, "They themselves have said that we are their benefactors, why do you always say that it was us who delayed General Gu's injury? Woolen cloth?"

"If it hadn't been for us, General Gu would have been hiding in the mountains and bushes waiting to die! Then how could Mrs. Gu have found him no matter how powerful she was?" Zhang Yingzi said.

"That's enough!" Old Man Zhang said feebly, "Stop talking! Yingzi, this is in someone else's home, don't let the owner listen!"

At this moment, Zhang Caiping's voice sounded outside the door: "Master Zhang, Miss Zhang."

Old man Zhang was startled and hurriedly said to Zhang Yingzi: "I don't know if anyone listened to what you just said."

Zhang Yingzi had a sullen face, took a few breaths, then changed her expression and went to open the door.

Seeing Zhang Caiping standing outside, Zhang Yingzi raised a smile and said, "Mrs. Gu Er, why are you here?"

There was no abnormality on Zhang Caiping's face. She was still as enthusiastic as when they first entered the door. She smiled and said: "I saw you only brought one maid here. I was worried that you didn't have enough people here, so I brought a few more." People come here.”

"Especially to serve Mr. Zhang, a boy is more suitable." Zhang Caiping said, "I brought a boy and a maid here. If you have anything to do, tell them and tell them what you want. If there is nothing in the house, Ask them to come to me, and I'll think of a way to solve it for you as much as possible."

"Mrs. Gu Er is so polite. Although I only brought one maid, it is enough." Zhang Yingzi said.

Xing'er, the maid brought by Zhang Yingzi, turned dark when she heard what Zhang Yingzi said.

Although the Zhang family was not very wealthy, it was fine when they were in the Zhang family. She only had to serve Zhang Yingzi alone.

Now that I have come to the Gu family, I realize that every master has several servants around him. Everyone has their own division of labor and does not have to put everything on their own.

With the contrast, Xing'er naturally felt a little unbalanced.

And on the way here from Chong'an, she had to do all the work of serving Old Man Zhang.

From serving tea and water, feeding water and food, to wiping the body, pooping and peeing, she did it all.

Myolie was not willing to do this, she just had to do it.

Now that Mrs. Gu has sent her servants over, Xing'er can feel relaxed. Who would have thought that Zhang Yingzi would just refuse?
Zhang Yingzi didn't look so aloof when she was carrying someone on her back.

Zhang Caiping said with a smile: "Originally, there was only Myolie, and she had to do everything. But there are many inconveniences in serving Mr. Zhang, so how can I ask Myolie, a little girl, to do everything."
