Mr. Song sat in front of the bed soaking his feet motionless. Mrs. Song felt the temperature of the water and thought it was all right, so she took his foot out to dry and put it aside. She was about to wipe the other foot when his foot slipped. Lifted and put into the tub again.
Mrs. Song was upset, and threw the handkerchief to wipe his feet into his arms, "If you don't think about it, just keep soaking."
Mr. Song came back to his senses, felt the temperature of the water, wiped his feet carelessly and put them on the bed, motioned Mrs. Song to pour out the footwashing water, and asked, "How did I offend you?"
Mrs. Song snorted, took the footwashing water, went out and splashed it casually, threw the basin outside, making a crackling sound, and when she returned to the room, she pushed Mr. Song into the bed, and lay on the outside with the quilt lightly on her back. Just pull it lightly and ignore people.
Master Song ignored her, and just sighed faintly, looking very sad.
Mrs. Song: "You just say what you have to say, and you always sigh, which makes me feel upset and irritable."
Master Song, "What's the use of telling you, you don't understand."
"Then don't sigh in front of me, sleep in your study if you have the ability."
Master Song was too lazy to move, and he also wanted to talk to someone, but in his heart these words were not suitable for anyone to say, so he finally spoke to his wife.
Forget it, it doesn't matter if she understands it or not, the most important thing is that she won't spread the word after hearing it.
Director Song didn't care if she could understand or not, but he told her all his troubles anyway, "... I thought he was a young man with no hair, and he was not reliable in his work."
"How many county magistrates have you seen in the past twenty years? Which county magistrate's left hand and right hand is not my Song family?" Master Song said: "Is the county magistrate Lu powerful enough? But in front of my uncle, I still have to admit defeat." ?"
Mrs. Song didn't understand these things, but she remembered what Mr. Song said very firmly, and asked: "Didn't you say that Uncle is almost a toothless tiger now when Magistrate Lu was still there? Did it make him succumb with just one move?"
Master Song: "...Don't talk nonsense, when did I say that? What I said was that the two were evenly matched, and each took a step back in the end."
Mrs. Song insisted, "That's what you said more than two years ago."
"Okay, okay, are you still listening?"
Mrs. Song said impatiently, "Speak."
Master Song was choked by her attitude, but continued: "Looking at Magistrate Bai's actions recently, I always feel that Uncle is in trouble, no, it's my Song family that is in trouble."
He wiped his face, sighed and said: "The money in the account of the county government is running low. These days, because of the kidnapping case, the expenditures in all aspects have been increasing. I handed over official documents to the magistrate Bai twice a day. He turned a blind eye, apparently not at all afraid of running out of money."
Mrs. Song became curious, "How can people who have no money be willing to work for Master Bai?"
Master Song said: "You don't understand, County Magistrate Bai is different from County Magistrate Lu. He has money. I heard what the guards of the Bai family in the county government said. It doesn't matter if the county government doesn't have money. Their lord has money." That's fine, when the time comes, borrow a private account and go to the county government."
Director Song was a little sad, "Magistrate Bai is not short of money."
Mrs. Song didn't believe it, "In this world, you only get money from the public, and there are people who pay for the public from their own pockets?"
"So if you don't understand, I can't tell you."
Mrs. Song became angry again when she heard that, she lay back down again, pulled back the quilt and turned her back to him, "Then don't tell me."
Master Song didn't stop, he started talking, and said worriedly: "Look at this, County Magistrate Bai has a tougher temper than County Magistrate Lu, but County Magistrate Lu has no capital, so he has to take a step back when facing the Song family. , continue to manage Beihai County together with our Song family."
"But County Magistrate Bai has capital. He wants money and people, and Beihai County is also poor. It's not up to us, the Song family alone," he said, "The biggest bargaining chip in our hands is the salt farm. But if County Magistrate Bai doesn't care about the salt field and can settle the Governor's Mansion, then the Song family will have nothing to fight against County Magistrate Bai."
"Because of the Song family, the relationship between my lord and I is not good. When I came back today, my lord invited Fang Xiancheng and Dong County lieutenant, but he didn't invite me. You said that Bai County magistrate completely fell out. Can the county government still want me?"
Mrs. Song couldn't lie down anymore, she got up and said, "You can't be the master book anymore?"
Master Song sighed, "Very likely."
Mrs. Song was so angry that she lifted the quilt and got out of bed, stretched out her hand and pulled the person in the bed out, and then pushed the person out of the bed, "What do you think you can do every day, you can't even be the bookkeeper , how do you still have the face to come back and ask me to wash your feet?"
Master Song was kicked out of the main room in his underwear.
He rolled his eyes in anger, so he didn't like to tell her the truth, he was so mad at him, and it was fine if he didn't give him an idea, but he even kicked him out.
At this time, Bai Shan, who had just sent off the last guest, returned to the room, and saw Zhou Man sprawled on the bed, motionless.
He was also very tired, so he found a place at the end of the bed and sat down in a daze, not wanting to move.
Jiulan and Xibing brought hot water into the bathroom, filled the tub with water, and Wu Yue found clothes for them. Seeing that one of them was lying on their stomachs and the other was sitting in a daze, they asked, "Ma'am, Lang?" Jun, which one of you washes up first?"
Man Bao didn't raise his head, but lazily raised his finger to point to Bai Shan. Bai Shan didn't even bother to raise his hand, and raised a finger on Zhou Man with the hand on his knee.
May:…
She pulled away her smile and showed a very fake smile, "Who is it?"
Man Bao, who was lying on his stomach, raised his head and changed the direction to lie on his stomach, facing Bai Shan. Seeing that he was not moving, he pushed him with his right foot, trying to push him out of bed...
Bai Shan grabbed her ankle and insisted on not moving, "You go first."
"I'm not going, you go first."
Bai Shan: "Didn't you say that girls should be given priority?"
"I can give up this right this time, you go first."
"I don't!" Bai Shan said, "I don't want to move now, you go!"
Man Bao lay on the bed and pretended to be dead, "I'm not going either, I'm a senior sister, you have to listen to me."
Bai Shan: "Shouldn't you let my junior brother let me go?"
Man Bao didn't move, "I don't have a teacher's friendship at all, don't let me!"
Bai Shan didn't move, "Then I won't wash it, but don't lie on the bed, you haven't changed your clothes yet, it's so dirty."
Man Bao moved on the bed and said: "Anyway, it's already dirty, you go quickly, I'll ask Wu Yue to change all the sheets and quilts after you wash up."
Bai Shan didn't move, he didn't even speak, he just grabbed her ankle and let go of his thoughts in a daze.
Man Bao raised his head to look at him, but also lay down motionless.
Wu Yue: "... Lady, sir, the water is going to be cold."
It's cold when it's cold.
At this moment, the two of them replied in their hearts at the same time.
Wuyue had no choice but to go to the kitchen with Jiulan to carry a bucket of freshly boiled hot water for backup.
In the end, Bai Shan compromised and got up slowly to wash up.
Man Bao lay on the bed and didn't want to move anymore, he was so tired, he didn't want to go to work, he wanted to take a rest...
