Chapter 92: Set up the stage
Yu Su asked Shi Gui to coax out, people were still confused, Shi Gui didn't pick out, flipped through the book and asked her all kinds of things, one time asked her about the jade bonsai of Kui Xing Diandou, and then asked her Lian Zhong Sanyuan's gold-pasted inkstone, Yu Su told Shi Gui one by one, what things were prepared for whom, she was clear in her heart.
Shi Gui has long known that the jade is proper, Qiong Ying has to take care of Mama Feng, and she has to coax Ye Wenxin, many things will not be done, and the jade will take over the matter of the festival, no matter what the jade is thinking, Qiong Ying will not treat her as before.
Yuxu has always followed Qiong Ying, so she took the errand, but she couldn't do it by herself, and when Shi Gui asked a few words, she answered them one by one, and Shi Gui said: "I knew that my sister had an account in her heart, so I didn't have to look at this." β
This account book can't reach her hand, in addition to the booklet, there is also a key to a cabinet, a three-story camphor wood low cabinet full of things, beads and gems, copper coins and silver, and jewelry that is not often worn, whoever holds the account book will be in charge of the key, and if Qiong Ying hands over this, it is equivalent to cutting her flesh with a knife.
Yu Xuan picked out the four-color pen and ink text to play, Shi Gui wrote a list, read it to her after writing, and slapped another sentence: "Sister should you list the things for several girls and write another one, so as not to make the girl sick and tired." β
The festival gift sent by the Ye family said that they wanted to pick a few things to give to Yu Rong Zezhi, but Qiong Ying hadn't done it yet, so Yuxu took over and nodded: "It's okay, just do it." β
From the Boxing Rite also sorted out a white elephant enamel small clock, more small than the one in the house, Jade Catkins picked out and put it in the inner room, and asked Shi Gui if he would see it, this is not engraved with Roman characters, but numbers, Jade Catkins saw her look at the clock and laughed: "I forgot to teach you to look at the hour." β
By the way, Shi Gui didn't have to learn it, he took the clock and went back to the inner room, Ye Wenxin looked at the gift list, nodded and smiled: "You did a good job, and I will give you this errand in the future." β
Qiong Ying held the teacup firmly with both hands, but her eyes looked at Yu Fu, Yu Fu deserved it, but Qiong Ying didn't understand the key, Ye Wenxin covered her mouth with her hand and yawned: "I'm tired, you guys should also go and rest." β
Shi Gui was worried about the gold bills in the purse, and the two edges of the jade and Qiongying were not something she could manage, so she hurriedly went back to the house, opened the box, and carried the gold bills that she could count, one with begonia flowers, one with a ruyi pattern, and one with an immortal fruit, and a champion and first.
She put it in her purse and carefully locked the things into the box, and when she came back in September, she saw that she was locking the box again, knowing that she must have got another good thing, and her heart was sour: "Why do you never see you wear many things, even if you keep money, you don't have such a law-abiding child." β
"I don't like these things, it's not convenient to do errands. Shi Gui took the key and hugged the cat, it was snowing heavily, and the two little things were very warm, and when they were raised and taught the rules, they could be put in Ye Wenxin's house to raise.
September knew that she didn't tell the truth, and she was not afraid of revealing her wealth, so she nodded her finger and calculated that the Winter Solstice Festival was coming, and there was always a reward in the big festival.
There is no errand in the heavy snow, Yahuan does not burn charcoal in the house at night, and when the door is closed, the oil lamp must be lit, so I simply opened a crack to penetrate the light, listened to the cold wind outside, and rubbed my hands in September: "Why does this snow not stop, it's not a light snow, it's a heavy snow." She muttered in her mouth, counting the money for those months in her heart, and her mother came to urge her again, asking her to send Qian to the family, so that the family could make the bacon that Xiaoxue wanted to eat.
No matter how poor you are, you can't even afford to eat bacon, and it's clear that you want to squeeze her money, so thinking about it, even the holiday is not happy, September sighed, touched the clothes on the body, and these mothers didn't dare to stretch out their hands anymore.
The big cotton jacket made by Qiu Niang, Shi Gui will wear it at this time, the inside of the house is not much stronger than the outside, covering a thick coat, and the body is warmer, counting the days are about to pay monthly money, Shi Gui only doesn't know, waiting for Mrs. Zheng to make a fool of herself.
Mrs. Zheng waited for the right day, two days before the monthly money, she went to the housekeeper's mother-in-law, brought two pieces of bacon and a pot of wine and said to her: "I came to my daughter's monthly money, her villain family doesn't know the director, and when she gets it, she will spread it out, and if she adds clothes and jewelry to the back, I can't do it for her." β
It's not the first time that the housekeeper has eaten please, and there is no reason to return the wine, meat and cake dumplings when they are delivered to the door, and they don't reach out to pick them up this time: "This is unbelievable, I don't have any money for you here." β
Mrs. Zheng was anxious: "Why not, I didn't tell you, the little girl came to take it and only said that I had taken it away." "She also took it seriously on the grape stone cinnamon, these two refused to give, she also saw it in her eyes, but she didn't take it seriously at all, the two little girls can still turn the world upside down, the third-class girls grab a handful in the yard, and they are not used in the rooms, and the godmother has to turn over to see their faces.
For example, that Fanxing, who was so arrogant that she had no edge, her godmother's family didn't dare to provoke her, she didn't catch any good money, she wasted all those years of eating, drinking, and wearing, and her goddaughter had to hold and press, so she couldn't get used to being the same as Fanxing.
The housekeeper spread her hands and squinted at her: "You said it nicely, and I don't know that your daughter is a person who will come to trouble, and you still say that she is not cleverβ‘β‘? β
Mrs. Zheng opened her mouth and couldn't speak, only when Shi Gui called the crowd and had nowhere to live, she went to the secluded fence, who knew that Chunyan was willing to do this for her.
The housekeeper's mother-in-law sighed: "I don't think you should fight those ideas, I don't have any money here, you have to get it, go to find Miss Chunyan at home." β
If Mrs. Zheng is more confused, she can't say that she really went, but she is the old house that she only returned to with the Ye family, not to mention Chunyan's mother, even Chunyan is also very capable of being the winner in the Ye family's house, she has stood up for Shi Gui, and no matter how stupid Mrs. Zheng is, she will not bump into herself.
She was unwilling in the end, and swallowed her saliva: "You gave me the grapes." β
The housekeeper's lady glanced at her, counted out four hundred dollars, and ticked a mark on the booklet: "This one is not easy to mess with, you have pestered me a few times, and you have carried my aunt out when you come back, if it is really Mu Xiang who opened her mouth for her, you don't have to ask me for this money again." β
Mrs. Zheng smiled on her face, took the money, and walked all the way back, thinking about adding a few dishes at night, sending something to her daughter and granddaughter, and cutting five feet of cloth to make a new dress.
As for Shi Gui, she didn't have to think about it to know, it must be that this girl still had the heart to go back to the upper room, so she stammered Chunyan, but she didn't think that she had some means, such a willing and motivated person, she really couldn't treat it like a grape.
On the day of Xiaoxue, Ye Wenxin let Shi Gui go home in September, she didn't drink tea in her illness, she was afraid of going sleepy, and she couldn't sleep well but lost her spirit, Shi Gui didn't even have to cook the disciple's tea, so it was easy to lie on the bed, and covered the quilt with her feet warmly, becoming more and more reluctant to move.
There are only a lot of charcoal fires in the secluded fence, and Mama Feng also bought charcoal outside, and there are many of them in their hands, and she secretly hid a few pieces back in September, but she didn't see it.
Slowly got up and combed his hair, the copper hanger rested on the carbon basin, the water was still warm, he washed his face and smeared the grease, his hair was sloppy and pulled into a snail, and he took the new clothes of this season, the water-green short jacket, the rose purple pants, the cotton was stuffed thickly, and a soft gauze towel was wrapped around his neck, and he packed his things and went to Yuancui Pavilion to find grapes.
Grape is also wearing new clothes, but not hair, it is made by himself, with a short jacket made of peach silk rewarded by Aunt Qian, and the bottom is green and sprinkled pants, people are lazy, Shi Gui came in, she still didn't move.
Aunt Qian's body is getting heavier and heavier, and she is about to give birth, this pregnancy is difficult, the girls in the courtyard are hard, and there are many rewards for the New Year's Festival, and the grapes are the most sweet, and she is very smart, so she got a lot of money this time.
Shi Gui was speechless when she heard this, her aunt's monthly routine was only two taels of silver, Ye said that she loved her, and she never gave things and never gave money, Aunt Qian's rewards were all private savings, she was in Ye's house, but she really didn't work in vain.
Shi Gui's monthly case has not yet arrived, the third-class four hundred yuan, the second-class can be eight hundred yuan, not a penny into Zheng Pozi's pocket, all of it is her own, plus Ye Wenxin gave it, there is more than one or two silver, looked at the grapes, and did not reveal half a word.
Grape was unhappy, she folded half more than Shi Gui, and her eyes rolled: "I said that our aunt alone gave eight hundred, do you say that the godmother believes it or not?"
Shi Gui laughed with a "flutter": "My sister is confused, my godmother must also get it, you are the person around you, how can there be less reason than her." β
Grape sighed lamentingly, the monthly money has been asked for her to be taken, and even the reward has to reach out, Mrs. Zheng is too fierce to ask for money, there are only two of them in the inner courtyard, a daughter and a son-in-law are not useful at all, and they have to make up for it, how can Grape be calm in his heart, and kicked the gravel: "It's still a family." β
Only when it is really "out of breath", when can Mrs. Zheng not suck this mouthful of mosquito blood, the two have been fighting for a long time, and they have to pay half of the money, the more they get, the more they pay, the less the reward, she still has to ask.
"Sister, as we said last time, the godsister will definitely come today. When the grapes heard this, they lifted their spirits again, and when she had no money, she took some beaded appliquΓ© tailoring.
The two of them went to the back alley hand in hand, and as soon as they opened the door, they could smell the smell of meat and vegetables all over the room, there were fish, meat, chickens and ducks on the table, but the grapes were flattened.
Mrs. Zheng wore an apron around her body, wiped her two hands on her body, and smiled close to Shi Gui: "I've been waiting for you for a while, why did you come back." Stretched out his hand and stuffed a pair of chopsticks into Shi Gui: "The roast pork skin you love, hurry up and taste it." β
The grapes could hang oil bottles on their mouths, and when Mrs. Zheng went in, she snorted softly: "Take this lot, and then give me the broth, see if I can leave." β
Shi Gui patted her: "You can't leave now, when the people come, you have to start the gong and sing a big show." β
