Entering the Fourth Baylor House is already a matter of eight or nine. Although he has been trying his best to keep a low profile and forbear when he came here, he does not want to get involved in all kinds of disputes, but he is not just obedient and self-pitying. Fortunately, this matter was not what Yinzhen wanted, although he still agreed for some reason, but the matter has come to this point, and it is pointless to dwell too much. All I have to do is make some preparations and plans for my future life.
When Geng's mother saw that I came back from seeing Chang Fujin from Baylor Mansion, her complexion was very good, and she thought that she had been enlightened by Chang Fujin, and Lian Dao Fujin was generous and generous. I smiled and promised, just to make her heart feel sure.
In this way, the preparations for entering the Baylor Mansion have become the top priority of the Geng family except for Zhang Luo's New Year, and the Geng family's parents are doing their best to arrange clothes and dowries for me.
Seeing that they were busy, they understood their parents' hearts for their daughters, and they obediently stopped going out, working as a female worker at home with peace of mind, and listened to Geng's mother talk about the way of life in the mansion and the boudoir that she had already known on the first night of the wedding.
In fact, as a low-level concubine, there is no need to prepare anything at all, and the Baylor Mansion that should be prepared will be prepared as early as possible and send someone to send it. On that day, it was just a suit of clothes and a few pieces of jewelry, and then some commonly used objects and festive colored heads, and then one or two girls and mothers-in-law assigned by Baylor Mansion followed, and a small sedan chair was carried into the inner courtyard through the side door and sent into the cave room.
Don't look at what I said to people that day, in fact, the so-called Shu Fujin is just a polite title on the face, not an official master canonized by the imperial court at all, at most, there is a time and surname on the roster of the Zongren Mansion, and he was called "Gege" by the servants in the house, which is slightly higher than the maidservants in the house.
"Gege" means young lady in Manchu, and is a Manchu title for women, in addition to being used as a title for the daughter of the imperial family, it is also used to honor other women of high status when they are unofficial. The low-ranking concubines of the princes will also be called "Gege". I heard that in the mansion of the nobles of the Eight Banners, some unfavored "Gege" will even be called as servants.
Because of this, the grace mentioned in the words of the Ulanala clan that day seemed to me to be ridiculous. Ordinary slaves and maids can at least have the hope of being sent out of the house after the age of twenty-five, and even if a woman who becomes a concubine has never received grace, she can only guard the green lantern for the rest of her life. What's more, even if he becomes Gege, he is still an errand to serve people, and he is still a slave who looks at people's faces.
Entering the wax moon, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the snow has been coming and going, which has been big and small, wrapping the capital in a layer of dazzling silver, full of white and boundless, and adding a lot of coldness to the ethereal. Fortunately, the New Year is approaching, and all households are busy preparing for the upcoming Spring Festival, adding joy and excitement to the coldness.
For Chinese, the Spring Festival is an annual big day regardless of the dynasty and generation. The Geng family also shifted from the preparations for my marriage to the preparations for the New Year.
On the fifteenth day of the lunar month, he accompanied Geng's mother to worship the Jade Emperor, prayed for peace, found an excuse, and went out to the Nine Elder Brothers' Mansion on Jingcheng Street with the box containing a monocular and a congratulatory note sent by Yinyu.
The content of the congratulatory note is to congratulate Yinyu on adding a new little grid. On the fifth day of the lunar month, Cong Chun'er asked people to hand money and a message home to report safety. In the message, it is said that Yinyu's concubine Zhaojia added a daughter to him on the fourth day of the lunar month, and the people in the house were also happy, so they took the rewarded things and silver home to let their parents not read it.
I have always felt that this thing is placed next to me for fear of giving birth to branches in the future, but I feel too abrupt and hypocritical to return it to him directly. got the news from Chun'er's mother, so she thought about borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, and returning things on this ground, but it was a matter of heart.
When I went out, it was already dark, and when I came to the intersection of Wangfu Street, snowflakes suddenly fell in the sky. There is no half of a figure to be seen on the empty street, and the copper buttons and red doors on both sides, red walls and yellow tiles, even if they are covered by ice and snow, it is still difficult to hide their solemn majesty.
Facing the flying snowflakes and the whistling north wind in the ears came to the door of the Nine Elder Brothers' Mansion, the snow was so heavy that people couldn't open their eyes, the cold wind mixed with fine ice cubes crossed his cheeks and fell into the collar, only to feel that his neck was cold, and his hands and faces were numb from the cold.
Standing in front of the Zhu Gate, he rubbed his cold and unconscious hands and patted the door for a long time, only then did the people in the house open the door a crack, looked at it with a wary expression, and asked, "Who is it?"
"Lord Mu Jingyuan congratulates the Ninth Master on getting a little Gege again, and sent me to send a congratulatory gift, and I was tired of handing it over. "The congratulatory note deliberately didn't write the name, anyway, the thing was originally the foreigner's, so I deliberately used his name to avoid suspicion.
"Master Mu only came yesterday, why didn't you mention the congratulatory gift?" Seeing that I was the only one standing at the door, the visitor subconsciously looked out and said suspiciously.
"The things in the box are good things that Master Mu only got yesterday, and he said that he should be able to enter the eyes of the ninth master, so I sent them early in the morning. Expecting doubts, he smiled and responded with the words he had already thought of.
The person who came took the letter suspiciously and looked at it, and saw that it was indeed a Western object with exquisite workmanship, so he didn't ask more, but only said: "The master is not in the house, just put the things down." β
His words were exactly what I wanted, I thanked him, and was about to leave, but I heard the man suddenly call behind me: "Ninth Master, you are back." β
Every time it appeared so coincidentally, I couldn't dodge, so I could only turn around and salute, and then called "Nine masters are auspicious." β
"Why are you here? But came to me?" Yin Yu saw that I was in front of the door, and with a smile in his eyes, he walked up to him and asked.
"Master, this girl is here to give a congratulatory gift for Lord Mu. Before I could speak, the man answered.
This made my scalp numb, and it was not good to say secretly, but I was powerless to stop it, so I could only stand in place awkwardly and bow my head and say nothing.
"A congratulatory gift from Master Mu?" Yin Yu took the box and the letter handed by the man and looked at it, the smile in his eyes faded, he glanced at me silently, raised his hand to hand the things back to the man, and said, "You send the things to the study first, and I will have a few words with her." β
The man took the things and promised to leave, leaving only Yinyu, who couldn't see his thoughts, and me, who was embarrassed and cramped.
"Why didn't I know that you were doing things for Mu Jingyuan now?" Yin Yu teased coldly, and then said: "I gave you to keep it, what are you going to do when you come back?"
I thought for a moment, got up and smiled at his angry eyes, "Congratulations to the Ninth Master for adding a new little Gege." As the saying goes, come and be rude, the folk girl got the gift of the ninth master, naturally there should be a return gift, but unfortunately the family is not solid, can not take out anything that can be eye-catching, so I have to borrow flowers to offer the Buddha to give this thing to Xiao Gege to play, it should be no rudeness, right?"
"This is the birthday gift I gave you, but you give it back and forth, and you dare to say that it is not rude?
I smiled and didn't answer, and listened to him again: "Sending things on a snowy day is also a heart, and I will accept this gift." As for your birthday gift, you will make up for it when you meet a suitable one in the future. β
I responded: "Thank you Jiuye for your grace, then I will go back first", and I was about to leave.
"Wait," he called me, took off his fur and draped it over me, tied the strap with his hand, and pulled the hood over his head.
There is a unique smell on the body temperature residue, and my heart is tight, and I am busy refusing.
Yinyu pressed the hand I wanted to untie the strap and said, "It's snowing big today, and I feel sorry for myself." It's just a garment, if you don't think it's right to keep it, you can use it and throw it away. β
There was persistence and negativity in his tone. Although I have always deliberately kept my distance from him, I have never been able to flatly refuse. I am about to enter the Four Belle Mansion, I am destined to stand on the opposite side of this person in front of me forever, and I should have resolutely cut off all intersections with him, but every time I think of this, I will feel a faint pain and reluctance in my heart.
I just hope that after today, there will be no more to do with it. I lowered my eyes, bowed deeply, and turned to walk out of the porch into the snowstorm. The snow blinded the eyes, stinging and astringent. Yin Yu behind him has been standing there, watching my figure disappear in the wind and snow. I didn't look back, I kept walking forwardβ
