Chapter 177 Visiting the Liu Family

After Zheng Sisi sat down, she saw the maids standing behind the three sisters. Zheng Sisi said to them, "Zhimin, Ziyan, Qianqian, let's eat. Or let the maids eat too."

The three of them turned around and saw that Zheng Sisi and the Third Prince's maids and servants were not there, so they nodded and agreed to let the maids go eat first.

Zheng Zhimin said embarrassedly: "Sister Sisi, I didn't know your maids didn't serve you, because at home the servants eat after their masters have finished eating."

Zheng Sisi explained: "I don't have these rules here. I have my own hands and feet. I can do some small things myself, so I don't need maids to serve me. Besides, I don't like others watching me when I eat. Don't be surprised."

Li Ziyan also said: "Sister Sisi, everything is up to you. Do whatever is convenient for you."

He Qianqian also nodded.

Zheng Sisi picked up the chopsticks and said, "Okay, let's eat first."

Several people started to eat, and after taking a few bites, Zheng Zhiyuan said, "Cousin, I still miss the food you cooked."

Zhong Ruiyu also nodded in agreement: "Yeah."

Zheng Sisi was speechless: "I'll cook for you when I have time. You should also understand that these aunts are used to being frugal, and they will definitely not be willing to use oil when cooking. I'll talk to them tomorrow and make do with it tonight."

The few of them could only continue to eat the tasteless food.

If the aunties cooking in the kitchen knew how they were eating, I wonder what they would think. They can only eat such tasteless food during the Chinese New Year.

After dinner, Zheng Sisi arranged to boil hot water. She planned to soak the rice seeds first. It would take a few days for them to germinate, so there was still time to plow the fields.

While the water was boiling, Zheng Sisi went to visit the Liu family's four members, who had also finished their meal.

Zheng Sisi wanted to understand their situation, and Liu Cuier's condition needed to be adjusted.

When the family of four saw the county lady coming, Aunt Liu was about to pull Liu Cui'er to kneel down and kowtow, but Zheng Sisi stopped them in time: "I don't like kowtows. I just came to see if Uncle Liu is feeling better."

Uncle Liu smiled naively and said, "County Lady, I'm much better now, but my legs still hurt a little."

Zheng Sisi said, "This is normal. Don't move your legs. Be careful when you turn over in bed at night. Didn't the doctor use a stick to fix your legs?"

Several people shook their heads in confusion. Aunt Liu said, "In the past, people in the village who broke their legs were treated in the same way."

Zheng Sisi understood that the doctor only told her to stay in bed and rest, unlike modern times, where plaster was applied to prevent secondary injury. The doctor didn't know this method, so she would help with it later.

Zheng Sisi asked again: "How is Shitou's injury?"

Aunt Liu looked at her sleepy son and said, "Shitou said he felt dizzy and only ate a little for dinner. He also said he felt like vomiting."

Zheng Sisi said: "This is a concussion reaction. It will be fine in two days. Let him sleep more. Aunt Liu has to work harder to watch over them at night. I am afraid that they will have a fever at night. If they feel uncomfortable, they must come to me at night. I have a way to help them reduce the fever."

Aunt Liu said gratefully, "Okay, thank you, County Lord."

Zheng Sisi looked at Liu Cui'er again. Liu Cui'er had kept her head down since she came in, as if she was afraid of seeing people.

Zheng Sisi sighed. This was a poor girl. Even in modern times, when women were raped, although society advocated tolerance, there were still people who would point fingers at them behind their backs. Moreover, in this era, if someone was raped, they would either marry the person involved or commit suicide. A wealthy family might even send the person to a nunnery to end their life.

Zheng Sisi didn't want such a young girl to end her life like this, so she planned to help her.

Zheng Sisi said, "Cui'er, lift your head up so I can see."

Liu Cui'er tangled her clothes with her hands and did not respond for a long time.

Aunt Liu urged anxiously, "Cui'er, raise your head, raise your head so that the county lady can see."
