CHAPTER IX
When Ziling woke up, it was just dawn, and there was silence outside the room, except for the occasional "chirping" sound of summer insects. There seems to be a taste of yesterday's roasted potato in her mouth, and I don't know if her mother is a little tired of the potato that she has eaten several times with her. She doesn't know how to eat, but it's really hard to eat something good.
Staring at a pair of big eyes, thinking about the day before, when she passed by Bai Zhenhan's courtyard, she saw the servant who came out of the courtyard pick up a bucket of rancid water and went out to pour it, and inadvertently saw that it was full of whole fish and chicken thighs that had not been gnawed mixed in a pile of food scraps, and she felt extremely aggrieved. It's okay to eat the vegetables grown in Xin Yuyan's courtyard once or twice, but she thinks it might be better not to eat them a few times.
Although she has a big heart, her life with her mother is very different when her father is at home and when he is not at home, and it is unrealistic to hope that her father will stay at home for more time. Sometimes she would be angry with her mother, why she had come back here, how good it was to stay in their house, but she had to come to this new home to find her own guilt.
There are a lot of new faces around her, but they don't like her and her mother. Originally, according to her temperament, she wanted to resist and sue, but her mother didn't know what to think, so she just wanted her to endure it. She endured and endured for so long and finally showed a skill to talk nonsense with her eyes open, no matter how much dissatisfaction she felt in her heart, she could behave calmly, and her words could be very beautiful.
Sometimes she thinks that she can also go out and live with this ability, if her mother agrees, she will leave a long time ago, not to mention that she doesn't have to look at people's faces, maybe she can still fish and meat every day.
Lying on the bed, thinking about it, it was dawn and had to get up, tidy up his dress, and walked out of the door, just to see one of the only four maidservants in the hall, the youngest Chunling. The little girl stood outside with a red face, happy to herself.
"Chunling, aren't you going to help your mother work, why are you standing here stupid?" Xin Ziling pulled up her hair with a silk hairpin, put it on the end of a bunch of plugs, and looked at the little girl standing at her door.
"Miss, I have good news for you. Chunling was so happy that she tiptoed: "Jun Shang is back." ”
"Oh!" Xin Ziling's eyes lit up, her father came back, her good life came back, although she never had too much to want, but at least when she wanted something, she wouldn't just have a cold face and white eyes to show her, and occasionally with the support of her father, it was also good to fight people once.
She often felt that the people in their courtyard were pitiful, and that they were burdened by her and her mother, and even the maidservants who followed them seemed to be extraordinarily inferior. When her father came back, she could seize the opportunity to vent her anger for them, and as for her father leaving, those people didn't dare to really do anything, but her father still wanted to come back.
"This morning, the king's personal guard, Lord Yun, made a special trip to spread the word, saying that the king had come back for a long time this time, and he would take the young lady and his wife to Jin Hailin together in the next day. Chunling was very excited, and it seemed that she was looking forward to it.
Going to Jin Hailin, Xin Ziling felt that this was not a great piece of good news. The reason why Jin Hailin got this name is not because the sea is golden, but because that place is rich in a kind of golden fruit, and before it bears fruit, it will bloom oblong golden double-petaled flowers. The flowers bloom in clusters in the summer and bear fruit in the autumn, but there are few new leaves on the branches during the flowering season, and it is strange that the branches are not drawn until the winter.
But because of this, the entire coastal mountains are full of dazzling golden colors, which is quite spectacular. That place is located behind a dangerous mountain canyon, and can only go upstream. The Fuming Palace regards it as a holy place to escape the summer heat, and in a few years, Qingmu Tian will take his family to visit there.
If you want to say that Jin Hailin is not good, of course it is not, after all, the air is fresh, the weather is cool, and the golden flowers all over the mountains are dazzling. Not to mention such a beautiful view, it is indeed a good place to escape the heat. Xin Ziling couldn't find it good because her father would take the whole family with him, that is, the whole family naturally had people she didn't want to see.
It's better not to go than to go, out of sight is pure. But every time her mother shirked her father, she would come to persuade her, and then Bai Zhenhan would also come to persuade her, but it seemed that her mother was not very sensible and could not be a person, and she would go in the end anyway.
Xin Ziling knew that for Chunling, Qingmu Tianneng took her and Xin Yuyan together to silently preach to the palace people that she and Xin Yuyan had the same high status, and they also wanted to have more face when they were maids, and they would not always be ridiculed and targeted by the old man in the palace in the future.
Whenever the people around her have such hopes, Xin Ziling wants to hit her. Of course, it's good to have hope, but the Yu Qing family has experienced so much, and if she still reports such hope after thousands of years, wouldn't she despair. But for some reason, these people around her just couldn't think about it, and they thought she was really a young lady when they called her Miss, and she never thought so.
But she understands these little maids, after all, everyone must be standing in a different position, and thinking about things is naturally different. They followed their mother and daughter because they were asked to be by Xin Yuyan's side since they were young or because they received Xin Yuyan's favor, and what they thought was also for her and her mother, and most of their thoughts were about their masters. After all, only the rest of them are sincere people.
Looking at the young Chunling with a happy face, Xin Ziling swallowed the words in his mouth again, and only smiled and said: "It's really good news, I will go with you when I pack up in the next two days." ”
"Yes, yes. Chunling's white face smiled and bloomed: "Then Miss, I'll go to work first." After saying that, he jumped and walked away.
Xin Ziling thought to herself, she is really a good master, it would be nice if all the masters in the world said some intimate words like her. Of course, this is also because she never thinks of herself as a master. As masters, such as Mrs. Qing, and Qing Daiyuan and Qing Dailuo are all people whose hearts are higher than the sky and whose faces are bigger than the sky. Thinking about this, I thought that I would have to spend at least a month with them in two days, and my mood suddenly became depressed.
Time flies quickly in depression, and the two days pass quickly. The whole family is a happy scene. There is also a share of Xin Ziling in this happiness, although it is pretended, but it is also very similar.
What if she didn't pretend? The man with gray hair who looked like a mean face, who should have been called grandmother, stood in front of her, and was hugged and dragged slowly to the third wooden cart. Xin Ziling smiled like that, and stood beside her mother obediently and saluted Mrs. Qing.
Six cars were parked in front and behind on the flat ground outside the palace, all pulled by two green oxen. In turn, the children were Qingmutian, Qingdailuo, Mrs. Qing, Bai Zhenhan's mother and daughter, Xin Yuyan's mother and daughter, and the last car carried the things that the nobles in the front five cars often needed, especially the clothes and jewelry of Bai Zhenhan's mother and daughter.
When everyone sat in the car, Qingmu Tiancai went to Xin Yuyan and their wooden car, and stopped for a moment when they passed by Bai Zhenhan's car, and when they were about to continue walking, Bai Zhenhan lifted the car flag, revealing a smiling face and said gently: "Just on the road, my husband doesn't have to accompany me, go and accompany my sister." Seeing Qingmutian, he paused and said softly: "Go quickly, I still have to talk to Yuanyuan." ”
Qingmutian relaxed at his feet and said with a smile: "Your mother and daughter are together every day and still have so much to say. After speaking, under Bai Zhenhan's tender and silent gaze, she walked to Xin Yuyan's car, Yan Ling pulled up the car banner very sensibly, and the three little maids next to her were as happy as if they were something, and they also glanced around the few maids who looked back in front of her.
Xin Ziling silently wiped her sweat in her heart, why did these little things keep taking her words as a deaf ear, this glance was interesting, but how much trouble did they have to cause later!
A group of people set off in a majestic manner, but in the small room on the wooden cart, Xin Ziling felt that she had become the superfluous one. In order not to prevent her mother from flirting with her father's eyebrows, and the main reason was that it gave her goosebumps, she had to lift the window banner with her hand and look outside.
Walking away from Fuming Palace, the mountain flowers are full of flowers along the way, and the grass and green trees on the roadside grow like waves on the uneven roadside slopes. Qingniu pulled the wooden cart and walked slowly, this way they had to go to Wanshou Mountain, ten miles away, and then take a boat from the mountain lake to Jinhailin, on the way they would rest for a day in the annex of Wanshou Mountain.
Along the way, everyone was talking quietly under the scorching sun, and their joy was overflowing. The scenery from the open window is indeed very beautiful, although the sun in the sky at noon seems to have the ambition to ignite the leaves, but it does not prevent Xin Ziling from continuing to look around, this accidentally looked at the big wooden car painted red in front of him, I don't know when the curtains of the car in front of him were also lifted, and Qing Daiyuan was poking out half of his head to look at something.
Xu is Bai Zhenhan in the car said something, and Qing Daiyuan seemed to sit back reluctantly. Xin Ziling was very curious, what good things did she see like this? She also swept forward, only to see a large group of guards waiting for the way. She was shocked and rejoiced in her heart, could it be that Qing Daiyuan had a crush on which guard?
This is a good thing worth exploring and interesting, and it is rare that Xin Ziling finally showed a sincere smile on this journey. Huanxi was comparing and analyzing which guard was more likely, when he suddenly heard a discordant voice sound: "Are you going to roll over to the outside of the car? What does it look like to hang your body halfway out! Why don't you hurry up and sit back." ”
Sure enough, all parents in the world are abrasive goblins!
