Chapter 875: Maggie
"I need these ebony, and if you are willing to tell me where they are, I can pay you a satisfactory reward, whether it is silver or something else, as long as I have it, I can give it to you."
Yang Feng's reaction was very fast, and he immediately put forward his request to Catherine bluntly.
"If you want silver, I can pay you 10,000 taels of silver, and if you have any wishes you want to achieve, you can also tell me, as long as I can do it, I will not refuse."
"I ......"
Catherine was slightly stunned, doesn't it mean that Chinese people like to talk nonsense when doing things, and only explain his meaning to you after listening to you in a daze, this Hou Ye is too direct, right?
But this kind of directness is not bad, at least talking to this kind of person and doing things will be very simple, and it will not be in front of one person and one behind the other.
Catherine hesitated for a moment before saying, "Master Hou...... The grass people don't need silver taels, and they don't need rewards, the grass people just want you to promise the grass people two things. ”
Yang Feng waved his hand: "Say!" ”
"There are two things that the grass people want, one is that I hope you can cure your mother. The second is ...... Rather, the grass people want to follow you, pouring tea and water for the slaves and maids to serve you. ”
"Huh?"
Yang Feng's smile slowly faded, and his eyes became sharper.
Catherine's two conditions are not problematic in the first, but the second is intriguing.
On the surface, people are willing to follow you and be your servant, and you are not satisfied.
But the fact is, what kind of person is Yang Feng. Now he is a prince of the Ming Dynasty, an important minister with hundreds of thousands of heavy soldiers, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the optimus jade pillar of the Ming Dynasty, and his safety is related to the safety of the Ming Dynasty.
Such an important person is naturally not something that anyone can pour tea and water by his side casually, otherwise if someone wants to harm him, he will die a long time ago if he puts some poison in his tea or food.
Yang Feng glanced at Catherine meaningfully, and said lightly: "There is nothing wrong with your first request, but the second request is not good, and Benhou doesn't need so many people around him to serve."
But Ben Hou can give a compromise, you can stay in the medical camp as a nurse, and you can also learn medical skills in your spare time, I don't know what you think? ”
Obviously, Catherine also understood the reason why Yang Feng didn't agree to her, if any person could get to the side of the dignified marquis, it would be unusual.
She bowed to Yang Feng and said gratefully: "Thank you for your grace, the grass people thank you for your great kindness on behalf of your mother." ”
"Alright, don't always thank you." Yang Feng said indifferently: "I didn't save your mother in vain, you also gave me enough compensation, speaking of which, I took advantage of you." Well, I still have some time, let's go see your mother together. ”
"Thank you, Master Hou!" Catherine lowered her head, not letting Yang Feng see the grateful look in her eyes......
Yang Feng saw Catherine's mother, Maggie, in the next room.
Maggie is a middle-aged woman in her forties, and although her dark skin and the torture of illness make her look old, she can still see her beautiful silhouette.
At this moment, this woman who has been tortured by illness still has a sincere smile on her face: "Master Hou, I really don't know how to thank you, if it weren't for you, I really don't know how Catherine would face her future life alone." ”
Although it was not the first time he had seen Maggie, Yang Feng admired this woman who was tortured by illness as if a gust of wind could blow it away, but was extremely kind.
When Yang Feng saw her for the first time a few days ago and wanted to do an examination and treatment for her, the woman's first reaction was not to accept it happily, but because she was worried that her disease would be transmitted to the other party.
"You don't have to thank me, the reason why I saved you was also moved by Catherine's filial piety to you. Our Ming Dynasty has always ruled the world with "filial piety", and your daughter also moved me because of this, this is not only your creation, but also a rare good thing for me, so you don't have to thank me! ”
Yang Feng smiled kindly, "By the way, Maggie, your treatment has been going on for more than half a month, how do you feel?" ”
"It's much better." Maggie said gratefully, "I used to cough every day, but now I only cough a few times a while. My chest used to be tight, but now it's much easier, thanks to the medicine you brought. ”
"That's good."
Yang Feng nodded with satisfaction, it seems that the drugs brought from modern society are still very effective, but the drug resistance in the human body in this era is almost zero, and the sensitivity to Western medicine is still very high.
However, although the effect was good, Yang Feng still instructed her: "Although it has improved, you must take the medicine on time, at least for more than half a year, otherwise if you stop taking the medicine halfway, your disease is likely to recur, and then it will be troublesome, understand?" ”
"Understood, thank you Lord Hou for your concern."
"That's good!"
Yang Feng came here this time to check on Maggie's recovery, and seeing that her condition was better than he expected, he was relieved, "In this case, you can treat the disease well, Catherine, I arranged for her to study nursing in the medical camp, so that you two can be regarded as having a place to stay, and at the same time you can earn some money to subsidize the family, what do you think?" ”
"Thank you for your great kindness, the grass people have kowtowed to you!"
Hearing that Yang Feng had even arranged Catherine's work properly, Maggie struggled to get out of bed and kneel for Yang Feng, but was stopped by Yang Feng.
"Okay, don't kowtow all the time, I'm actually selfish to help you. Catherine told me where the gloomy woods his father had left her were buried, and in two days they would be dug up.
Originally, I wanted to give you a sum of money, but Catherine didn't want it, and would rather use these opportunities in exchange for this mission, so don't always thank you for it, these are what you deserve, you understand? ”
Although Yang Feng tried his best to explain to Maggie that this was what the two of them deserved, Maggie understood that this was just Yang Feng to make their mother feel at ease, if it was someone else, I am afraid that he would snatch it directly, how could he go to such great lengths to treat her and arrange an errand for Catherine.
Just as Yang Feng finished reading Maggie and was about to go back, the family came to report that there were several Spaniards who claimed to be envoys outside asking to see him.
