Chapter 166: Convincing
Gu Yinlan walked all night, her legs were very sore, and Minglan's sable cloak was too eye-catching, she said impatiently, "Don't say it, it's not too early, it's time to go home." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
She really can't walk anymore, now give her a chaise longue, she can fall asleep on her stomach, she is already tired, and she has to look for her everywhere.
But she didn't dare to complain about this, she didn't look for Minglan, she had been sitting in the gazebo to rest, it was the maid who told her that she had found Minglan, and she came over, but Gu Rulan was very anxious.
Minglan looked around, and Gu Rulan smiled, "Second sister is looking for Bizhu and Sydney?"
Minglan nodded, "They're not here?"
Gu Rulan covered her mouth and smiled, "Ahead, I don't know how much the two maids have eaten, and they can't even walk." β
Minglan, "....... β
Gu Yinlan snorted coldly and said, "The masters are gone, they are still so big as maids, they should eat and drink, such maids should be killed." β
Ming Lan glanced at her and said slowly, "On Chinese New Year's Eve, the third sister is not afraid of bad luck with a cane?"
Gu Yinlan was stunned, then snorted twice, glared at Minglan fiercely, and then stopped talking.
Minglan trusts Bizhu and Sydney, how can it be that others will have a suspicion if they provoke a sentence or two, she is just a little puzzled, she said that she was separated, Gu Yinlan and they did not suspect it, it seems that she almost fell into the river, Gu Rulan and Bizhu did not say.
Walking forward more than 100 steps, Bizhu and Sydney, you helped me, and I walked over with a painful look on my face.
With that painful look, Minglan glared at one of them, "How much did you two eat?"
Bizhu touched her stomach and complained to Sydney, "There is a dumpling eating competition over there, and Sydney has to participate, so I will accompany her to ......." β
The corners of Minglan's mouth twitched, no wonder she ate it, before she left the house, they had all eaten, but she heard Sydney say that she was full of food, and then patted her head and said, "Why do I only care about eating, and I have to buy delicious food on the street for a while, it's not that I can't eat it?"
She looked regretful, Minglan still remembered that when she saw her burping, she couldn't help but reach out and poke her head, "Lose." β
Sydney touched the forehead that was poked, and shook her head again and again, she risked her life to eat, how could she lose, she was a little proud, "Not only did she not lose, but the slave maid also won ten taels of silver." β
Minglan can't be convinced.
After walking forward for a while, I arrived at the place where the carriage was parked, and after getting into the carriage, I returned to Bofu.
It's just that Bizhu and Sydney have eaten so much, as soon as the carriage was bumpy, and their stomachs turned upside down, they were only halfway away, so they stopped the carriage and vomited on the side of the road, and their eyes were dizzy.
The carriage stopped in front of Bofu, and Minglan looked at the two maids' crumbling appearances, and didn't know what to say, "Next time, let's see if you dare to eat like this." β
Sydney touched her stomach and said, "I won't dare next time." β
"Is there a second time when you say that?" Minglan asked.
Bizhu said with a painful face, "There is also a Lantern Festival and a Lantern Festival competition......." β
Minglan, "....... β
She has an intuition that her two maids will definitely die in the future, and they will not want to die for money.
Sydney is okay to say, is Bizhu short of money, she has received more rewards these days than the young lady of the petty official's house.
Seeing them return home, the maid stepped forward to salute and said auspicious words.
Along the way, there were talking and laughing to go to Changsong Courtyard, the eldest lady was accompanying the old lady to keep the New Year, and the house was lit with incense, which smelled very good.
After a long night, I should have invited the opera troupe to juggle into the house, but there were too many powerful people in Kyoto, and the eldest lady sent Mr. Li to invite him before, and several major opera troupes in Kyoto had already been arranged after the Lantern Festival.
Originally, the old lady was a little drowsy, but when they came back, the silver bell-like pleasant laughter made the sleepy insects gone, Gu Xuelan carried a lantern and stepped forward to show the old lady.
They all bought lanterns, the old lady admired them one by one, among the lanterns of flowers, birds, fish and beasts, Minglan's Guanyin lotus lantern was particularly conspicuous.
"I bought it for my mother," she said.
After speaking, seeing that no one had a special reaction, the roots of her ears were slightly red, and she felt as if she had said a nonsense.
This lotus lantern sent by Guanyin, she didn't give it to her mother, didn't she keep it for a lady who didn't go out of the pavilion, she was really nervous by the seller of lotus lanterns and a few little children, and she was always worried that she would be misunderstood.
The old lady nodded and smiled, "This lotus lantern means good ......." β
Just as she was about to ask Minglan to hang in the house for the Mu family, a maid hurriedly came in from outside and interrupted her words, saying, "Old lady, it's not good!"
The maid was halfway through speaking, and was scolded by Wang's mother again, "Palm! I don't know what day to avoid!"
The old lady's face was slightly gloomy, and the maid knelt down with a frightened plop, and said, "The slave knows that she is wrong, and the second lady has fainted!"
When Minglan heard this, he suddenly got up, and said with a pale face, "How could my mother faint?"
The maid shook her head, she was just here to pass the word, I don't know why she fainted.
Minglan was worried that something would happen, so he walked away, the old lady twisted her eyebrows, and told the eldest maid to read Xia Dao, "Let's go and have a look." β
Minglan almost trotted to Youlan Yuan with her skirt, at that time, Mu Shi had already woken up, leaning on the big pillow with a slightly pale face, Gu Rulan and Brother Mao stood aside, one high and one low, looking like they had made a mistake.
Minglan sat on the edge of the bed, holding her hand, her eyes were red, "Mother, are you okay?"
Mu Shi shook his head, "Mother is fine, it's just that I'm tired these days and I'm a little dizzy, just rest for a while." β
Since she fainted, how could she be fine, Mother Zhao was afraid that she would be in a hurry, and said, "I have already sent someone to ask for a doctor, don't worry, girl." β
Minglan knew that it was useless to be anxious, she looked at Gu Yunlan, she hadn't seen her so honest, Brother Mao was even more so, usually when he saw her, he would rush over and hug her leg and call her aunt, but now she was surprisingly quiet.
There must be a demon when things go wrong, Minglan said, "Why don't you speak?"
"I didn't mean to make my mother dizzy," she said aggrievedly, twisting the corners of her clothes.
She was just playing with Brother Mao, Brother Mao chased her, she ran around her mother, her mother was worried that Brother Mao would fall, and kept watching, she turned a few more times, and her head was dizzy, but she didn't faint, her mother fainted first, she really didn't do anything bad.
Brother Mao was also frightened, not long ago, his mother Gu Ronglan suddenly fell, and not long after, he never looked at her again, he missed her.
He was afraid that his grandmother would be the same as his mother, and he would never see him again, and with Gu Yunlan standing aside obediently, his little man would not dare to move.
Minglan also knew that the two of them couldn't do anything, and Mother Zhao and Pearl Jade were both guarding the house, so she said, "Mother is fine, you all go back to the house to sleep." β
Gu Yunlan shook his head, "I still have to keep the New Year." β
