This is the first time Qiu Yiran has been to the Begonia Courtyard, Ruxiu is leaning on the head of the bed to embroider, and the two little maids are sitting on the chairs next to the bed sewing clothes. Some time ago, I have been rushing to make New Year's gifts and reward purses, and the three of them are tired. However, even though last night was Chinese New Year's Eve, Ji refused to let the three of them take a break, just because Qiu Yanran suddenly wanted an eight-piece big skirt with a bright red skirt embroidered with colorful butterflies to wear flowers, so that she could wear it during the Lantern Festival. The Lantern Festival Lantern Festival is an annual event in Los Angeles, and it is also a good time for big girls and little daughters-in-law to compete for beauty.

Seeing Qiu Yiran come in, the two little maids hurriedly quit after saluting, and sighed in their hearts that Aunt Xiu had finally come to the bitter end, but fortunately, they still respected Aunt Xiu very much on weekdays. In the Begonia Courtyard, Aunt Embroidery not only has a good temperament, but will teach them needlework skills, if you are diligent and help her do something, Aunt Embroidery will secretly give although it is only eight or ten copper plates, but their monthly money in the Hou Mansion is pitiful, and the reward has never been, so naturally she is more diligent to please Aunt Xiu.

The two little maids who originally only followed the female red embroidery were vying to take care of Ruxiu, and the rough use of Mrs. Zhang was naturally more loyal and hardworking, so Ruxiu's life was not so bad. Of course, the life when she was a big girl in the Yin family is not comparable at all.

After the embroidery ceremony, he still sat back on the bed and continued to embroider, not as excited and enthusiastic as Qiu Yiran imagined. These days, under Qiu Yanran's reminders again and again, she has already figured out that Qiu Yiran has never taken her seriously, she just wants to use her to get Yin Zhiruo and Yin Zhiruo's dowry. Now that she has lost this use value, isn't she just a lowly maid and embroidery girl? Even, even the child of Qiu Yiran in her belly is nothing in the eyes of the Qiu family. It's just that what she didn't understand was that since they didn't value this child, why did they take her into the Hou Mansion again?

Ruxiu's bland attitude hurt Qiu Yiran very much, and he couldn't help but think of the shallow worship when he became a family that day, almost didn't bend her waist much, and the decisiveness when she chose and left......

Yin Zhiruo is just that, now even Ruqiu, no, Ruxiu, who is a nymphomaniac towards him, has such a lukewarm posture, how can he be embarrassed? Why is he so unattractive?

Qiu Yiran's face instantly darkened: "Why, didn't the strange master come to see you?

Ruxiu raised her head strangely, with an innocent face: "What kind of face? What are you talking about? The concubine is rushing to make the clothes of the second girl, the second girl said that she will embroider a hundred butterflies, and there are thirty-three peonies, which will be completed before the Lantern Festival, and the concubine almost doesn't even have time to eat and sleep, where is there time to put on her face?" After speaking, he lowered his head and continued to embroider, not caring about Qiu Yiran's embarrassed and angry face, he remembered the rumors outside that the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion was so poor that he robbed other people's embroiderers. After the New Year's ceremony is completed, why do my mother and sister still give Ruxiu so much work? Anyway, the children in Ruxiu's womb are all his eldest son or eldest daughter.

"Okay, you let it go first," Qiu Yiran's tone softened, "It's too late, it's too late, the master will go and talk to Yan'er." Now I want to ask you a question first, about Meizhuang. ”

Ruqiu didn't stop the work in his hand: "Master, you ask, but the situation in Meizhuang, the concubine knows everything to tell you." "My mother said that people's eyes are easy to expose feelings, and she still embroiders with her head down.

Qiu Yiran frowned, but there was not much time for the emergency situation, so he still asked, "Is there a martial arts master hidden by Yin Zhiruo's side, are the guards she brought from the capital specially found for her by his father?"

Ruqiu shook her head: "The concubine doesn't know what a martial arts master is like, but Yin Zhiruo doesn't have many guards, at most ten people, all of them are people from the original mansion, and some of them weren't guards before, just running errands." Most of them are born in the family, and they came to Los Angeles mainly because their families have been Yin Zhiruo's companions. Oh yes, it seems that one or two of the people Yin Zhiruo bought back from Kaesong also served as guards. ”

Qiu Yiran's brows furrowed even tighter, how could such a randomly selected guard, and there were only about ten people, be able to fight against forty or fifty barbaric and ferocious mountain bandits? Could it be that Meizhuang's organs were really so powerful?

But also, if the agency is not powerful, how can I never hear of which mansion and Zhuangzi of the richest man Luo Dayou have been taken over by bandits? Alas, my stupid mother dared to follow the Ye family to fool around without knowing anything, and cooperated with the mountain bandits so boldly. Thinking of the Ye family's repeated demagoguery of his mother and the scourge of their Qingyuan Marquis Mansion, Qiu Yiran's clenched fist burst out with green tendons, that woman is the nemesis of their Qiu family!

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Ruxiu raised her head and wondered, "You don't want to...... It's difficult, the concubine heard that there are a lot of organs on the Zhuangzi, and they are very powerful, so Yin Zhiruo is not afraid of bringing so many dowries. "It seems that the Qiu family is really poor, and they even came up with the idea of robbing it directly. Hehe, it's ridiculous that the so-called aunt of his own food is worse than the Yin family's rough maid.

Qiu Yiran sneered: "Where did you think of it? I just asked casually, don't you know anything about that organ?"

Ruxiu pursed her lips self-deprecatingly: "Now that I think about it, Yin Zhiruo was wary of me early on, hehe, I can only blame myself for not having long eyes, and I am stupid." ”

Qiu Yiran squinted his eyes again, this is meaningful? Do you regret staring at yourself that day? Regret following yourself? Listen to my mother, such as the monthly silver embroidered in the Yin family, is two taels a month, and a lot of clothes and materials are better than what Yan'er wears, and now ......

"That's right," didn't wait for him to make a difficulty, Ruxiu touched his lower abdomen, which was not very obvious: "You know, right? The concubine has a child, and I don't know if it's a boy or a girl, the concubine just hopes that he will be well, and he will be blessed in the future." In any case, he is always the master of the Hou Mansion. ”

The topic changed too quickly, and Qiu Yiran was stunned: "You take care of it, don't think so much." I'll go first, and I'll come back to see you when I have time. After saying that, he turned around and left, walking so fast that he didn't know why.

Ruxiu put down the embroidery bandage, hooked her lips coldly, called Mrs. Zhang in, and gave her a small purse: "Mother Zhang, you go out for a walk, find out if something is going on in the house?"

"Eh," Mrs. Zhang happily took the purse, "the old slave is just going to the big kitchen to get breakfast and New Year's snacks, and he is going to the tent to get your aunt's monthly silver." "The descendants of the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion have no extra rewards for the New Year, only two dim sum per person, and the same is true for her aunt.

Ruxiu nodded and smiled: "Go, I'm not hungry, there are still some snacks bought back from the previous **, you don't have to worry, talk more and come back, there is nothing to do today, if you want to go out of the house, you can also go to the front to take a leave." She doesn't know anything in this Begonia Courtyard, but fortunately, Mrs. Zhang still has a few old sisters in the mansion who are also rough mothers-in-law, and being rough is being a rough man, which does not affect their gossip ability and interest at all. Every time Mrs. Zhang goes out for a walk, she can bring back a lot of news, both inside and outside the house.

As soon as Mrs. Zhang left, the two little maids came back, with a flattering face: "Aunt Xiu, the prince really loves you, but looking at his hurried appearance, he must have been very busy recently." "Of course, the prince will be in charge of the family in the future, I heard that many things are handed over to the prince now, how can you not be busy?" "Aunt Xiu, the prince specially told us to be diligent, and we can't be tired of you, auntie." ”

Ruxiu was busy with her work, and said shyly: "Yes, yes, yes, I just praised you for your cleverness and ability." ”

......

At this time, in the front yard, Hou Ye was patting the table: "What? Lin Tingwei ...... You don't take our Qiu family too seriously, do you?"
