Chapter 95: The Game

Because of the deed, Ruqiu's good mood disappeared by half, and the expectations and fantasies of the life in the Hou Mansion were naturally greatly reduced. It's not that she doesn't want to ask Zhiruo to let her go first, but Zhiruo's words made her speechless: "Didn't you keep persuading me not to offend the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion?

For two days in a row, Ruqiu only felt dizzy and lightheaded. As soon as you know that the Yin family has fallen, you will degrade your wife to a concubine. Benevolence, righteousness and generosity? How could she be reconciled and keep fighting Yin Zhiruo's idea of dowry? She never felt that the Qiu family was a good person, but in this world, the weak eat the strong, right? It's just that she has always believed that she is a strong person, a strong person who can step on the weak and eat the weak and get stronger and stronger. And Yin Zhiruo has always been a weak meat in her eyes before.

Until now, she has a sense of powerlessness of "being a slave for a day and a slave for life", and the glory of "half a master of the Hou Mansion" that she has been longing for in the past is like a flower in water, which will be shattered with a light stir.

In this way, Ruqiu nervously got into the carriage from Qiu's family. The mother-in-law who came to pick up people was still from Liu Agen's family last time, took the deed from Aunt Qiang's hand, and looked at Ruqiu's brand-new brocade dress, the silk flowers of the golden hairpin and satin on her hair bun, and the big Nanmu box that was being carried into the carriage, and the big apricot red burden, Liu Agen's family immediately smiled: "Ouch, what a new aunt! Thanks to our wife, it was inconvenient to say that the small sedan chair was far away, so she specially sent a carriage over, otherwise I was afraid that I would not be able to take it. "It's good to be generous! Wouldn't she also have a generous reward for this trip? What do you say to cut off contact, hmph, don't you still want to slap their Hou Mansion?

Aunt Qiang snorted: "What is this? It's just an embroidery girl, and it's not the big girl next to the girl, but she just let her take away the rewards and savings saved by their mother and daughter." Our Yin family has always been generous to our subordinates. If the big girl who has the master's trust and likes marries, the girl will give you a dowry at will, and won't let your jaw drop? Okay. The person and the deed of identity are handed over to you, you press a handprint here to confirm, and it will be done. ”

Liu Agen's family was stunned for a while, and then he looked at a piece of paper in a daze, pressed his handprint, and then snorted secretly at the backs of Aunt Qiang and the two little maids who turned to leave. What's the big deal? Isn't it just a little money? Isn't it just climbing up to King Jing's Mansion? Isn't it still the daughter of a criminal minister?

Scolding and getting into the carriage. Liu Agen's family looked at the car box that had become crowded all of a sudden, and Ruqiu's dress, they were still envious and angry. Those rumors about the Yin family's wealth and generosity to their subordinates are really not false. Look, an embroidery girl's belongings are so rich. Her daughter is also a big maid next to Qiu Yanran, the girl of the Hou Mansion, and I'm afraid she won't be able to save these things for another ten years, right?

Ruqiu saw the background color of Liu Agen's family and knew that it must be because Aunt Qiang didn't give a reward, but fortunately she was prepared and stuffed a beautiful red purse over: "A little heart, my mother came to pick me up." ”

Liu Agen's family glanced at it, it was an excellent fabric. The embroidered flowers were lifelike, and then secretly pinched and checked, and his face suddenly looked good: "It should be, it should be." "Although there are copper coins in the purse, it is estimated that there are dozens of them, and this purse is worth twenty copper coins to say the least. The monthly money of their Qingyuan Marquis Mansion is pitiful. The bounty is almost non-existent. She only gets 800 yuan a month, okay? It's magnanimous!

"Aunt embroidery," Liu Agen's family patted his thigh, remembering one thing, "By the way, Mrs. said that your original name was the surname of the Hou Mansion, and it was changed to embroidery in the future, it just so happens that you are good at embroidery, hehe." ”

Ruxiu? Ruqiu was stunned, she didn't care if she changed her name, but what does the name have to do with good embroidery? No, isn't it Ruxiu, is it Ruxiu? Like embroidery? She was even more depressed, thinking that the reason why Ji said that the reason why she wanted her was that Mrs. Qiu liked her female red embroidery skills.

Liu Agen's family didn't notice anything wrong at all, and was still full of interest: "Aunt Xiu, I heard that the monthly money of the people in the Yin family's big house is very high, is it true?"

Ruqiu was completely out of mood at the moment, but it was not easy to offend her, and said: "It's just a rumor, I am two taels of silver a month, where is it high?"

"What?" Liu Agen's family jumped up directly, covering his head that was hurt by the top of the carriage and exclaimed, "Two taels of silver? Where is it high? The monthly silver of the big housekeeper in our house is only two taels of silver, okay? The old lady and the big maid in front of the lady are only one penny, and the girl is only eight hundred yuan for the personal attendants, by the way, the aunts of the Hou Ye are only two taels." Thinking of this, she glanced at Ruxiu (since then Ruqiu has changed her name to Ruxiu), what a fool! If it were her, she would rather stay in the Yin family and be a maid, okay? The aunts of the Hou Mansion are not as good as the Yin family's disgusted embroidery girls. Look at the Nanmu box, the golden silk Nanmu, the flashing cash wire, it is very good-looking. The box is also engraved with lace, and at first glance it is a big craft workshop from the capital, but I am afraid that they have no Mrs. Houfu and girls, let alone aunts.

Under the excitement of Liu Agen's family, he stretched out his hand and wanted to open the box to see what was inside, but unfortunately he couldn't open it, and a yellow and clear copper lock was impressive.

She withdrew her hand embarrassedly, pursed her lips, cut, what's the use of locking tightly? After entering the Hou Mansion, what good things do you want to keep? Even if the lady and the girl don't take it, I'm afraid that the cousin will have hot eyes, hehe, but they are all delicate and unreasonable.

Ruxiu suddenly came back to her senses from Liu Agen's words, wouldn't she? Aunt is also half a master, or the aunt of Master Hou, how can it be that there is only two taels of silver moon silver, the same as a maid of her? Aunt Zhen and Aunt Lan were both ten taels when they were there!

was seen by the kind of eyes of Liu Agen's family again...... , Ruxiu was even more flustered, this qiē was completely different from what she imagined, how could this be? How could it be? No, Qiu Shizi really likes her, she will definitely protect her and favor her, she will not be the same as those aunts of Hou Ye, she will definitely not.

Ruyi, who cheered herself up all the way, was completely cold after entering the Begonia Courtyard that belonged to her. This yard is not only partial, but also cold, there are no flowers in the yard, only an old elm tree. Her bedroom had nothing but a wooden bed, a round table and chairs, a large embroidery frame, and a long platform against the wall, not even a charcoal basin. Much worse than her bedroom in Meizhuang. All the furniture, including the bed covers, was only six or seven percent new, and she had already known that she had brought all the pillows for her bedding in the plum village. Those are all newly distributed in the treasury after arriving at Zhuangzi, and they are all muslin, I don't know how many times better than these.

Mrs. Zhang, who welcomed her into the yard, saw her face full of disgust, and kindly persuaded: "Aunt embroidery, the old ones are old, but they are all very clean." The old slave has been dismantled and washed all over the past few days. Actually, she thinks it's good. It's fluffy and thick enough. It's just an embroidery girl who entered the house in the name of a concubine, and this treatment is already good. But this embroidered aunt looks good. The prince now has no other concubines to have a room, maybe he can really be favored, she has no other way out for her mother-in-law, and it will not be wrong to wait for a good wait.

Ruxiu didn't speak, nor did she drink the water brought by Mrs. Zhang. The cup was too thick and old, and she happened to bring herself a fine white porcelain cup from Jingzhen that she had known before, and her favorite moon tweed was painted on the cup body.

Ruxiu looked at the door. Why hasn't her stuff been delivered yet?

I was about to ask Mrs. Zhang to ask, but I saw Liu Agen's family come in, but they were empty-handed, and there was no rough mother-in-law or servant behind him.

Without waiting for her to open her mouth to ask, Liu Agen's family spoke first: "Aunt Xiu, Mrs. asked the old slave to get the key to your box." Said to see if there was anything that could not be brought into the Hou Mansion or did not match your identity. For example, the golden silk nanmu box. ”

What does it mean that the things in this room are in line with her identity? Is this a way to openly withhold her private belongings? Ruxiu was so angry that her whole body trembled, and her lips squirmed for a while. After all, he didn't make a sound, and he fainted directly......

When Ruxiu woke up, she found herself lying on the bed, there were three or four people standing in front of the bed, and an old man's voice was saying: "Fortunately, this aunt's body is very good, the fetus is very stable, and it will be fine if you have a good rest." ”

A female voice snorted coldly: "The life of a slut is hard, it's good to have a miscarriage." If it weren't for Qingyuanhou's insistence that this first grandchild should not be artificially removed, so as not to spoil the luck of the heirs, she would have poured a bowl of medicine into Ruxiu a long time ago. Helplessly, a master said that the Qiu family was only afraid of the difficulties of the heirs from Qiu Yiran's generation, and they should not deliberately abort.

The person who spoke was Ji Shi, and when he saw her, he was about to turn his head, but Ruxiu quickly closed his eyes and clenched his fists in the quilt. She was actually pregnant? This was a great joy, but I didn't expect that, as my biological grandmother, Ji would curse her so viciously for having a miscarriage. Why? Why? What about the prince? Did he know?

Today is the big day for her and him, but he hasn't shown up yet, she fainted, and was found to be pregnant, he still didn't appear, Ruxiu felt that his hands and feet were cold......

At this moment, a sharp voice said, "Didn't you say it's okay? Why hasn't this slut woken up yet?" Mother, you asked people to search her body and find out the key to the box. Pour out the contents, I want that box. Why does a cheap concubine use a golden silk nanmu box?"

It was too late for Ji to stop it, Qiu Yanran had always spoken very fast, and she could only be secretly resentful. This girl is really spoiled by her, and Lang Zhong is here, why is she so open-mouthed? Qingyuan Marquis Mansion is still shameless? Fortunately, Luo Langzhong is her person, and his mouth is still very tight.

Sure enough, Luo Langzhong said goodbye as usual as if he hadn't heard anything, and the Ji family asked Liu Agen's family to send him out, and asked Mrs. Qin to guard outside the house.

Qiu Yanran didn't feel anything wrong at all, and was still urging: "Hurry up, mother, I don't know if there are any good things in that box, the clothes in her baggage are all good materials." ”

"Shut up, I am anxious to ask for a cheap concubine and maid's things, do you still want to see someone when it spreads? Who will come to the door to propose marriage in the future?" Ji Shi roared, this kind of thing is done in secret, how can you shout like this? Fortunately, except for Ruxiu, who is still in a coma, the others in the house are her henchmen, otherwise they will ....... It's really important to find a nurturing mother, but, silver!

Qiu Yanran was stunned, her eyes immediately turned red, but she was also wronged, she was a girl from the Hou Mansion, there were few valuable things, and she was not as good as Ke Qiaoqiao, not as good as Ji Luan'er, and now she was not as good as a cheap concubine and embroiderer, can she not rush to grab it?

"Okay, okay," Ji couldn't bear it anymore when he saw his baby daughter like this, "I have to wait for her to wake up." Yan'er, you really should take your temperament, otherwise you'll ......." That slut will wake up at any moment, and she still can't train her daughter here.

"Ahem," Ruxiu knew that Lang Zhong said she was fine. Pretending not to wake up for fear of being discovered, he opened his eyes faintly, "What's wrong with me? Where am I?"

Ji didn't answer her, but raised his voice and called into Qin Pozi.

Ruxiu "saw" the person in front of him at this time, and was shocked and stunned. Hurry up and get out of bed to salute: "Mrs. Qiu, Miss Qiu." How are you? I'm ...... No...... The concubine was rude. ”

Mrs. Qin held her down: "Aunt Xiu, you have a body, and you almost had fetal gas, so let's lie down well." ”

"What?, body?" said Ruxiu in surprise. "Really...... Really, the concubine is pregnant with the child of the prince?"

"Okay," Ji glanced at Ruxiu impatiently, "Pay attention to it, Lang Zhong said that the fetus is very stable, it's okay." But as soon as you enter the door, don't mutter, it won't look good to anyone when it comes out. "When I was born, I could say that I was born prematurely. Now I can't explain it.

Ruxiu lowered her head: "Yes, the concubine knows." ”

It's kind of acquaintance, that's good. Ji's tone was a little better: "Where's the key?

Ruxiu was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "The key?" Oh, Mother Liu said, Madame wait. Fortunately, she was worried that the maid who was waiting was unreliable. The silver ticket, two valuable hairpins, and a gold bracelet were taken out and kept close to him. Although there is a loss to the money bank. But she always remembered her mother's teaching, and when the silver and copper plates had accumulated a certain amount, she found an opportunity to go out and exchange them for silver tickets. Lightweight and easy to hide.

Ruxiu took out the key from the purse around her waist and handed it to Mrs. Qin, who opened the box under the expectant gaze of Ji's mother and daughter. Most of the space in the box is still embroidered clothes, she is a woman who loves beauty, and she doesn't have to wear a fixed dress when she is a close-fitting girl, so she naturally makes a lot of beautiful dresses for herself with the materials rewarded by the county lord and the girl.

Then, it was a robe she made for Qiu Yiran, three pieces of fabric that had not been used, a handkerchief for gifts, a purse, a large box of miscellaneous items such as teacups, combs, mirrors, and a small box of silk flowers and silver jewelry...... There was also a large purse containing loose pieces of silver and copper plates, which were estimated to add up to twenty or thirty taels.

Ji Shi frowned: "Agen's family said that you have two taels of silver a month, and Yin Zhiruo valued you very much before, why did you save so little?"

Ruxiu said timidly: "There are not many places where the concubines have silver in the Yin family, so they are all ...... I have bought materials to make clothes, and the materials in the capital are very expensive. And also...... There are also hairpins, jewelry, and silk flowers...... "These are all good materials for the county lord and Yin Zhiruo, of course, they are expensive, and the Ji clan has no suspicions." As for the golden hairpin on his head, he has already been seen, and he can't avoid it.

"What a loser!" Ji snorted angrily, "Can a maid use so many clothes, and buy such good materials?"

Ruxiu choked aggrievedly and said, "Before, my aunt ...... Yin Zhiruo always said that when we got married, she would prepare a rich dowry for us, so she didn't think about saving a dowry, who knew that she would suddenly get bored with me now, woo woo"

Ji snorted and scolded secretly: You are a personal maid who eyebrows with Yi'er on the day she got married, can she not get tired of you?

"Okay, okay, Mother Qin, quickly pour out all these things from her, and send this box to my house, by the way, and that orange satin. Qiu Yanran was also so angry, those materials were better than what she was wearing, but unfortunately they were all made into clothes, she couldn't wear the clothes worn by this slut, right?

"The girl wants this box?" Ruxiu was shocked, but when Qiu Yanran glared at her, she hurriedly whispered, "The girl likes it, Ruxiu can't ask for it, anyway, this box is also a girl...... Yin Zhiruo disliked the peony flower carving, and it was a pity to split it, so he rewarded me. "It is the county lord of Qianxin who really avoids the peony upside down, dislikes bad luck, and lets the craftsman split the box and redo it, she is good at observing words and feelings, she took the opportunity to ask Yin Zhiruo for it, and she got a big bargain, I don't know how many people died of envy, and that Yan's mother regretted that she was a step slower, and her intestines were blue.

Qiu Yanran was stunned, rushed over to take a closer look, and sure enough, the row of peony flowers at the bottom third was all head-down, and then reminisced about the words of Ruxiu, so angry that she raised her foot and kicked the box, and then ...... Glenched in pain.

Ji Shi frowned and looked at Ruxiu, "Peony Upside Down" is really not good, but in fact it is nothing. It's just that if you say it so straightforwardly, it's different. If Yin Zhiruo dislikes something unlucky, how can she or Yan'er use it?

Ruxiu looked frightened, wanted to ask something, but didn't dare, tears instantly filled her eyes.

"Forget it, what are you doing with this?" Ji Shi sighed, "Yan'er is just a child's heart, can you take it seriously?" take a good rest, and the two little maids will bring fabric needlework and thread over later, you take them to make a robe and skirt for Yan'er, as well as things for New Year's gifts, and specifically ask Qin's mother to tell you later." ”

Ji's mother and daughter threw their sleeves away angrily, and Ruxiu on the bed slowly raised her head, with a look of anger and contempt. (To be continued)
