Chapter Twelve: The Little Savior

    

chievous, playful and spoiled as she used to be, enjoying herself without any restraint.She was going to try to make a plan, try to set a goal, try to make herself stronger.In the future, she can also...Her subordinates patted her granddaughter more and more gently, and she felt incredibly reassured in her heart.

It had been seven or eight days since the Li family had boarded the ship.

Each person played their part diligently and never shirked their responsibilities. This made the Sun family treat them with kindness and respect, without any mistreatment or harassment.

And Jia Yin's task was to spend every day playing with Miss Sun.

A seven-month-old baby girl doesn't say anything, she just babbles.

Occasionally spitting a few bubbles and dancing with his hands and feet, he could make Ms. Sun elated and Mrs. Sun smile.

This day, Mrs. Sun looked at the small hat Zhao Yuru was sewing for Jia Yin. The pattern was quite similar to the ones from her hometown.

She suddenly felt like it, leaving the two children in the inner room under the care of a wet nurse, and then led Li Laotai to the outer room to see the collection of flower patterns she had saved.

As soon as Madam Sun left, the wet nurse started yawning.

Last night the ship swayed violently, she hardly slept all night, and now she's terribly sleepy.

The wet nurse, too lazy to bother, simply put the young mistress into a small crib with railings. And Jia Yin wouldn't turn over, so she let herself lie on the bed.

Jia Yin turned her head to look at Miss Sun through the gap in the fence. The little girl was lying in her crib, playing with her fingers out of boredom, then she rolled over and sat up.

Jia Yin was afraid she would fall, so she made two little "ahh" sounds, wanting her to lie down again.

Hearing the noise, Miss Sun stood up, leaning on the railing.

Then, he was drawn to a plate of snacks on the table outside the fence.

That was a plate of brown walnut cookies, each about the size of a child's palm, fragrant and very tempting.

Children are naturally curious. Miss Sun, not wanting to dwell on Jia Yin's words, ignored them completely and reached out with her short arms to grab the walnut pastry.

At this moment, the wet nurse had already fallen asleep leaning against the bed.

Jia Yin was a little flustered, before she could even think of a way to remind the wet nurse, Miss Sun had already grabbed a walnut crisp and stuffed it straight into her mouth!

"Ugh..." The walnut cake was dry, and Miss Sun's little mouth was stuffed full, but she wouldn't spit it out.

When I wanted to cry, I ended up inhaling some debris into my windpipe. Soon after, my face turned red from holding back tears.

Jia Yin desperately wanted to jump up and run to save the person, but unfortunately, she was just an immobile infant now.

She could only cry out in a strained, loud voice, "Wah, wah, wah!"

"What's wrong, Funi Grandma's here, Grandma's here!" Li Lao Tai was the first to run in.

Mrs. Sun followed, originally worried that her daughter would be frightened, but she saw that her daughter's face was already purple.

"Nuan Nuan!" Sun's wife was so frightened that her soul flew away, her limbs went weak.

It was Old Li who had experience. She quickly picked up Miss Sun, pulled the walnut cake out of her mouth, and then laid her on her arm, patting her back forcefully.

Miss Sun, crying and coughing, finally coughed up the walnut pastry.

But the wet nurse had already woken up, frightened like a quail, shrinking at the foot of the bed and trembling.

Madam Sun tightly held her daughter, listening to her cries. She finally came back to her senses and all her anger was directed at the wet nurse.

"How dare you look at Miss like that!" the nursemaid hurriedly pleaded, "It wasn't intentional, Madam. I was just too tired and wanted to nap for a bit. I didn't expect Miss would come up for a snack!"

"You're saying it's Miss [Name] to blame, and you have nothing to do with it"

Mrs. Sun angrily reprimanded, her face flushed red. If it weren't for her status, she would have slapped them.

The wet nurse pressed her forehead to the ground, sobbing bitterly.

"No, no, madam, it's all my fault. Please forgive me this once, I promise there won't be a next time..."

Seeing her cry so pitifully, with dark circles under her eyes, Old Li softened. She cautiously said,

"Madam, I see that Li's wife takes care of the young miss with great care. I heard that because she doesn't have breast milk to feed the young miss, she became feverish and has a string of blisters around her mouth which haven't gone down yet.

"His eyes were dark circles. It must be because he didn't sleep well last night and was so tired that he made such a big mistake."

Mrs. Sun glanced at the wet nurse, her face slightly softening.

Grandma Li gently patted Jia Yin's shoulder, who had stopped crying, her voice even softer.

"Madam, when you are out, it is just a moment of anger. It is likely that there is no one else suitable to replace her. Besides, this wet nurse truly cares for the young mistress and knows she has made a big mistake. If you are magnanimous and forgive her this time, she will surely remember your kindness and take even better care of the young mistress in the future, wouldn't that be better"

The wet nurse was overwhelmed with gratitude for Madam Li and nodded eagerly.

Mrs. Sun also found this to be reasonable. Seeing her daughter playing with the pearl necklace hanging from her collar, it seemed she wasn't seriously bothered.

She said, "Well then, luckily Fu Niaoer was here today, or else Nuan Nuan would have gotten into something serious. It's all thanks to the heavens. Otherwise, a hundred of your lives wouldn't be enough to make amends!"

The wet nurse, having just breathed a sigh of relief, heard Madam Sun speak again.

But this matter can't just be let go. I'll deduct this month's silver from your wages, so you'll remember this lesson.

"Yes, yes, thank you madam for your forgiveness. From now on, I will do my best to take care of Miss and will never make such a mistake again."

The wet nurse almost killed the young mistress. It's already a blessing from the master that she wasn't sold or beaten to half death.

Don't even mention taking away a month's salary, even if it were several months she would be happy to accept it.

"Get up." Mrs. Sun still had some annoyance in her heart, and after she finished speaking, she didn't look at her again.

The wet nurse quickly got up and then discreetly gave Li Laotai a grateful look.

"Aunt Li, I'm truly grateful to Fu Niuer today. Without her, my daughter who knows what kind of suffering she would have endured…"

Mrs. Sun saw that the little Jia Yin in Old Lady Li's arms was well-behaved and quiet, her eyes filled with gratitude.

Old Mrs. Li hurriedly waved her hand, "Madam, you're overstating it. It's normal for children to cry and fuss sometimes. It was just a coincidence. Our young miss is blessed, she can always turn danger into safety."

Mrs. Sun was delighted and loudly ordered her maidservant.

"Open the box and take out those fine silks I brought from home. Have a few good dresses made for Funiu'er."

As soon as Li Laotai heard this, she quickly waved her hand.

"Madam, you mustn't! We poor folk's children can't possibly afford silk for our clothes!"

Then Mrs. Sun paused, and she also came to her senses. She had only been thinking about giving Fu Niuer some good things, but she hadn't thought about whether this thing was what she needed.

But if you don't send silk, what else can you send

Mrs. Sun was in trouble.

The wet nurse looked at Jia Yin's chubby little hands peeking out from her swaddling clothes, and an idea came to her mind. She whispered a suggestion.

"Madam, Li Dalian's family can't afford silk garments, and sewing new clothes is too troublesome. Why not find some old cotton or linen clothes They can be worn immediately and won't look out of place. I saw yesterday that Li Siao's sleeves were patched."

This indeed reminded Lady Sun, who immediately nodded in praise.

"Yes, that's a good idea. You go tell Chun'er to find some more old clothes from the box!"

Mrs. Li still wanted to refuse, but Jia Yin stretched out her little hand and tugged at her collar, "Yi ya..."

Old Li thought her granddaughter was hungry or needed to go to the bathroom. While she bent down to check, the wet nurse slipped out.

And Mrs. Sun also took out a silver note and two ingots of silver from a small box beside her bed.

"Aunt, since your family is going to seek refuge with relatives, it's always good to have some extra silver. Here are one hundred taels of silver notes. Please keep them safe. Consider this as dowry for Nunu when she gets married."

Having said that, she pushed the silver ingots over again, "These ten taels, you keep them outside for occasional use."My daughter is amazing. The medicine she concocted doesn't burn so much when sprinkled on it." 。Mu Xu smiled and said, "Master Si is wrong. This is a prescription concocted by Doctor Zhang, and the c...
