A bright moon is at the head, the clear light is reflected, and Chang'an City is shrouded in thick night. The lanterns hanging on the heads of the high gates illuminate the bluestone road in front of the door, and the hazy beauty presents a different beauty from the daytime, and the city is livable, but it is not livable.
The carriage drove into a road in front of the Zhenguo Mansion without slowness or urgency, Anu pointed to a vague figure outside the gate of Ji's Mansion and shouted Hu Guanshi, which startled Ji Yao's wandering mind, and when he got off the car, he found that the person waiting was Hu Guanshi.
"Big lady, you're back. Steward Hu welcomed Ji Yao into the door, and reported to her the situation at home: "Mrs. Tai made a fuss all day, saying that the flowers in the house were not fragrant, the food was not to her taste, and the rice was not clean and there was sand, so she punished the two new cooks for playing the board." The little one refused to move the family law, saying that he would wait for you to come, but Mrs. Tai was beside ......"
"What does she want to do?" Ji Yao paused, and her eyes showed majesty: "Let the two beaten cooks go back to recuperate, and they will not be allowed to go out of the house for ten days." ”
Steward Hu wondered: "It's not easy to find a decent cook outside, you also know the eldest lady, how much effort did we make to find such two cooks who work neatly and are not greedy." There are more people in Chang'an City day by day, and the price on the market is also rising day by day, and I am afraid that I will never find the same person with the original money. ”
Ji Yao looked at the faint light in Mrs. Tai's main hall, and snorted softly: "You are not easy to find, is it easy for others to find?"
Steward Hu thought about it for a long time, and after recalling the meaning of Ji Yao's words, he hurriedly chased after the eldest lady who had gone away.
When Ji Yao arrived, Mrs. Tai was crying out for heartache, the third lady sat on the edge of the bed with low eyebrows and rubbed her heart for her, and Granny Chen stood in the corner of the bed to fan the flames: "Mrs. Tai, your old man can bear with it for the time being, there is no one who is awake outside the house, no matter how uncomfortable you are, no one will come to take a look." ”
"Grandmother is not feeling well, has she taken any medicine?" Ji Yao stepped into the threshold and asked one after another: "Uncle, why didn't you see him?" The steward said just now that he is not in his aunt's house, which is really a strange thing. ”
Mrs. Tai wanted to give Ji Yao the hat of unfilial piety, so she first asked her own son if he was filial.
Granny Chen rolled her eyes and said, "Cuilian shouted that her stomach hurt before dinner, and Zhen Guogong felt sorry for the piece of meat in her stomach and rushed over to accompany her." The heir is the most important, don't you say the eldest lady?"
"When will the Ji family rise up to offer a pregnant concubine on the table, and Cuilian can be as expensive as her grandmother? Ji Yao spoke unceremoniously, she was really not afraid of offending Cuilian.
Not to mention the Ji family, the prince of Langjun in that mansion did not dare to declare to the public that a pregnant concubine was more important than a sick mother, Mrs. Tai's mother and son had such a brain, and they still wanted to pick on others, it was ridiculous.
Granny Chen shut up in defeat, the third lady quietly glanced at Ji Yao's eyes and stood up, Mrs. Tai still screamed and screamed, lying on the pillow when she didn't hear it.
"Grandmother, the subordinates are unreliable, don't be angry, a few boards will be gone. However, the two cooks were punished to go back to the house to recuperate, and the big kitchen immediately lacked manpower, we are now short of money, and we can't open a small stove alone, A-Yao can only ask for the grandmother's eyes, and let the two old mothers who are good at cooking and drinking around you take a top first. Ji Yao said with a smile.
Mrs. Tai raised her eyelids lightly and didn't open her mouth, and Granny Chen began to help again: "It's not just that the cook's hands and feet are not good, look at the people used by the eldest lady, the japonica rice she bought is not like japonica rice, such a big bamboo shoot is too old to bite, and the smell of mutton is so big, spend the same money to do different things." It's not that the old slaves are talkative, it's time to replace them with another group of people. ”
Ji Yao glanced at Granny Chen, and knew in her heart that she was pouting here, Granny Chen's son and daughter-in-law were idle, and they were usually idle white-collar moon silver masters, and how many days of famine in Luoyang City should be plotting to make oil and water.
"Grandmother said what to do, Ah Yao mentioned in advance, the housekeeper was personally selected by the aunt, and the first one to replace him was not good-looking in the aunt's face. My aunt is sick now, and we can't alarm her. Ji Yao only asked Mrs. Tai to block other people's hands with Xiao Liang's family.
Mrs. Tai pretended to sigh: "What to do, you can do it, you just need people to be able to eat." I still have a few days to live, and I just want to drink some comfortable soup and eat tea and rice that is right for my stomach. ”
Ji Yao frowned and deliberately pretended to be very embarrassed, and didn't speak for a long time.
Granny Chen hurriedly came up with an idea: "My daughter-in-law and I used to do the shopping errand in Luoyang, and we did it very smoothly, so it is better for the eldest lady to rest assured that the work will be handed over to them, and there will be no mistakes in the safekeeping." ”
Ji Yao secretly sneered, just wanted to take a quasi-letter from Mrs. Tai's mouth, turned around and gagged, and asked, "Grandmother, what do you think? ”
The corners of Mrs. Tai's mouth rose when she heard this, and finally showed a smile: "Then the Chen family will take over, I can rest assured that they will do things, and you can save a lot of worry." ”
Ji Yao still pretended to be reluctant, sighed lightly and agreed, and after coming out, she ordered the Hu steward to hand over the purchased account books and silver money to the Chen family and his wife, she admonished: "You keep those two people first, go back and ask them if they understand crop work, if they can, go to manage the 100 acres of private land outside the city for the house, the work is more than ten times lighter than the current one." ”
Steward Hu understands this time that the Ji family is big and small, and he doesn't want to lose too much in the aristocratic circle in the capital, he should have pomp and circumstance, and he has a few empty money, and the prices in Chang'an City are soaring.
"Unload well, unload lightly. He laughs.
Ji Yao also smiled.
The cook recuperated and rested for ten days, and the two middle-aged servants beside Mrs. Tai said that they could cook, limited to fancy pastries and bits and pieces, so that they could go to the pot table to make meals all over the house, and within three days, they should retreat.
They all look at the good house, the scenery of the home is oily and water, let them experience it when they are home, and then they can experience it, the home is not so good.
If it were possible, Ji Yao would also want to be a shopkeeper and enjoy Qingfu, but she didn't want to be sold in her dreams.
The town and country sold the land and sold the land, but in exchange for a small family, life could not go on, and it was the turn of selling children and daughters. There is also Mrs. Tai's short-sightedness, the three granddaughters of the Ji family, all of whom are well-born, maybe she already has a plan.
Ji Yao must be on guard against these. She ran around all day, and when she returned to her room, she thought that she didn't have dinner, so she sent Anu to the kitchen and take some cushions for her stomach at will.
Anu came back with a food box, saying that there was food left for her in the kitchen, two dishes, a bowl of rice was hot in the cage, and it was still steaming when it was served.
Ji Yaosai gave Anu a pair of chopsticks, "You also sit down and eat, I can't finish one of them." ”
Anu twisted and refused, Ji Yao forced her to sit at the table, pulled out a small half bowl of rice for her, too late for fear of accumulating food and ate a few bites at will, staring at Anu to finish the rest of the meal, and then let her clean up the table and prepare to rest.
Under the lamp, Ji Yao took off the small beads on her head by herself, combed her head with jade teeth, and the green silk slid between her fingers with a slight coolness, she sat in a daze for a long time, drifting in the mirror to her own thoughts.
She is struggling alone, and she doesn't know where she will end up in the future? Will it be some high-ranking family in Chang'an City, or is it somewhere else?
For a long time, Ji Yao, like other daughters of the same age, thought of her life's events for the first time, she hooked her head around a strand of green silk and circled in her hand, her mood was as messy as a messy hair.
******
As Ji Yao expected, within three days, the two servant women in the house who temporarily replaced the cook were crying bitterly and shouting that they couldn't do it.
They got up in the dark, and after breakfast, they didn't dare to rest their feet and had to be busy with lunch.
Mrs. Tai wants to eat softly and well, the second lady prefers hard and crisp and pays attention to freshness, Zhen Guogong does not need to say that the small dishes that must be drunk at dinner in the morning and evening must be missing, Xiao Liang's nourishing soup in the illness continues, and Cuilian is pregnant with her body, she likes sour today and will be sweet and cold tomorrow, and she will say that it is too hot......
Ji Yao and the third lady are trouble-free, what's the use.
The two servant women ignored the east and the west, and they were busy with one end and lost the other. What's more, one day before dinner, the second lady couldn't wait for the kitchen to bring the soup, so she went to ask for the guilt in person, opened the stew pot and saw that what was simmering on the fire was not the pigeon soup for her mother, but the pure heart porridge that Cuilian wanted to drink.
When the family had dinner late, Zhen Guogong asked the kitchen hungry, and naturally asked his daughter.
The second lady just found a venting point for her grievances, and she didn't vomit at all: "Daddy is saying that I did something wrong? It's not because she has a piece of flesh in her belly, it's just a piece of unformed flesh that counts as nothing. The fourth sister is so big, you haven't lost people!"
Zhenguo Gong trembled with anger, his two strands of beard trembled slightly, and he accidentally lost his little daughter when he was willing, and was exposed by the eldest daughter in public, so that he could not be angry.
"You ......" he stretched out his palm to scare the second lady, originally wanting her to bow her head and be soft, and he would look better before and after others.
The second lady is born with a bullish temperament, and if she doesn't commit it, she can't get it back. Ji Yao was anxious to cough beside her, but she didn't hear it, and she stiffened her neck and said: "You fight, kill me and my mother, hello, and then have a new lady, isn't the family short of money, and by the way, the newcomer can also bring a large number of dowries." ”
There was a snap, and the room was so quiet that you could hear a needle.
Zhen Guogong waved his beating palm in the air, and went out with a heavy sigh.
The second lady covered half of her hot face and was stunned in the local area, but she didn't cry, Ji Yao was afraid that she would be too angry and hold back something, so she hurried over to comfort her.
At this point, the second lady was the first to look at her grandmother who once regarded her as the pearl of her palm, she was not blind to really see her grandmother's schadenfreude eyes, and held back a weakness in her heart, she shook off Ji Yao and turned her head and rushed out of the house.
Ji Yao stayed in the local area and looked left and right, because of the last fall of Luoyang, Mrs. Tai hated Xiao Liang's family for abandoning her and became angry with the second lady, she knew it. But on the face of the third lady, Ji Yao once again saw a sneer and hatred, her sister was ...... She may have underestimated Qiu Niang's existence.
