Chapter 139: Red Sleeves
The next day, Zhen Wanyi took the cherry to Hanxiang Courtyard, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw a middle-aged woman sitting on the pestle in the center of the hall, dressed in a new blue cloth skirt, her hair was meticulously crumpled into a ball, and she was wearing only a plain silver hairpin.

The girl standing behind her stepped forward and knelt on the ground, kowtowed respectfully, and said, "The slave maid Red Sleeves has seen Miss Nine." β
Zhen Wanyi hurriedly helped up, "Get up quickly, you don't need to make such a big gift." β
Red Sleeves raised her head, her skin was still dark and rough under the pink floral cloth skirt, but her eyes were bright, this was an assertive girl. "The slave specially begged her mother to follow her into the house today, just to kowtow to Miss Nine. β
Zhen Wanyi was curious: "Why is this?"
"First, the slave maid wants to thank Miss Nine for her forgiveness to the slave sister back then, which is also what the slave sister has repeatedly advised. Second, the slave and maid should thank Miss Nine for her kindness to the slave and maid's family, so that the slave and maid's family can have a place to live. Third, I would like to thank Miss Nine for forgiving us a lot and being willing to see my mother. β
Zhen Wanyi looked at the red sleeves in surprise, this little girl is really not simple, she is bold and careful to speak clearly, she has expressed so much meaning in just a few words, and she wants to use words to put her mouth in advance, "How do you know that I forgave you." β
Red Sleeves secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that what the brother-in-law said was right, and calmed down and said seriously: "Yesterday, Mrs. sent someone to Zhuangzi to spread the word and let my mother enter the house for questioning, but there are no strangers in Zhuangzi recently, and there are no other Zhuangtou to visit, so the slave maid boldly guessed that Mrs. and Miss Nine must have forgiven us before summoning us for questioning, otherwise we would directly let someone else take over Zhuangzi." β
Zhen Wanyi turned her head to the fourth lady and smiled: "This is a smart girl." Do you know what I'm calling you here for?"
Red Sleeves swallowed her saliva, her brother-in-law said that she must fight for Miss Nine's approval to stay by her side, so that their family would have a chance to turn over, and she wanted to help her brother-in-law, she wanted to stay by Miss Nine's side like a cherry, dressed up beautifully, without going to the ground to bask in the sun, she could be as white as her sister. "The slave knows that the wife wants to give Zhuangzi to Miss Nine. β
Zhen Wanyi raised her eyebrows, turned to the fourth lady and smiled: "Mother's subordinates are really strong." β
The fourth lady put down the teacup and said with a smile: "This is a lost pearl, fortunately you remember them, this is fate." When I picked someone for you back then, the moon was steady, the cherry was lively, the tiger girl was loyal, and the lotus fragrance was gentle. β
Zhen Wanyi smiled and nodded, "Aunt Li will go back to Zhuangzi today, and the red sleeves will stay and go to Zhuangzi with me tomorrow." β
The red sleeves were overjoyed, and knelt down and kowtowed, "The slave obeys." β
"Cherry, you take Aunt Li and Red Sleeves back first, and you will be entertained, and then send Aunt Li back after lunch. β
Cherry grinned, wincing at the red sleeves, and the two girls laughed widely.
After the three of them went out, the fourth wife said with a straight face: "When you go to Zhuangzi tomorrow, you will bring a few more people, this Li family is afraid that it will not be simple." β
Zhen Wanyi was puzzled, "Why did my mother say that?"
"Li Baoshan was the emperor when he first fled here, dragging the family with a very depressed life, met your father voluntarily sold himself into slavery, at that time I and your father happened to be short of manpower, so they left their whole family in Zhuangzi, at that time Zhuangzi was only one hundred and ten acres of land, Li Baoshan people are diligent, his wife is also shrewd and willing to make efforts, the Zhuangzi is very well managed, so slowly sent his daughter into the house to be a maid, the red dress is a matter of course to be the big girl next to you, but then out of your file, but for the sake of her father's face, I did not punish too much, only drove the Li family to Zhuangziγ But when the red dress is next to you, you don't recognize a few words, but when you look at the red sleeves just now, the person who chews the words is not like a person who doesn't understand literature and reason. β
As soon as the fourth wife said that Zhen Wanyi also noticed that it was rare for a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl to have such courage when she first saw her master, but, no matter what, as long as they didn't have bad intentions, she didn't mind that they were hiding some secrets, who didn't have some private things that couldn't be said to humanity?
In the evening, I returned to the yard and interrogated the cherry good student, and when I asked, I learned that the cherry family and Li Baoshan's family have been friends since childhood, and now they have been friends for more than ten years, and the cherry and the red sleeves have known each other since childhood.
Zhen Wanyi asked funny, "Then why didn't your eldest brother marry the red dress?"
Cherry pouted, "Uncle Li took in a man a few years ago, and intercepted the red dress sister halfway, Uncle Li didn't know what to think, he actually married the red dress sister to Xia Hua, and Xia Hua didn't know where Uncle Li liked him." β
Zhen Wanyi shook her head with a smile, Cherry seemed to have a lot of complaints about the person who snatched her sister-in-law, and seeing that the master had no reaction, she immediately said dissatisfied: " Originally, Miss, you tell Uncle Li that he manages such a big farm, so naturally he has to find a strong son-in-law, then Xia Hua will only dig and bury in the ground all day long, and I don't know why Uncle Li let him mess around like this, Miss, you must teach Xia Hua a good lesson when you go to the farm this time, and let him know that Miss's Zhuangzi is not for him to mess around. β
Zhen Wanyi smiled: "Okay, how long has it been, you are still thinking about it, be careful that your sister-in-law knows about giving you small shoes to wear." "Mo Yan had already married a wife last year, and now she is a father, Aunt Mo is so happy that she talks about her grandson every day, who would have thought that this cherry still misses the red dress.
Cherry paused, bit her mouth, and stopped talking.
Zhen Wanyi shook her head and said with a smile: "Okay, don't be so stingy, your sister-in-law may have made a mistake in remembering to use your fabric, and besides, it was also used on your nephew, so don't be angry, didn't I make up for your material?" Zhen Wanyi understands Cherry's temperament, she is the only daughter in the family, her parents and brothers let her spoil her, she is also the most caring for the family, she always does not forget to keep her things home on weekdays, and most of the monthly silver is handed over to Aunt Mo, just because there are two brothers in the family, and she asks for money to marry a wife, so she is always very sensible to help Aunt Mo save every penny.
But since Mo Yan became a parent, Cherry has been messing with her family every once in a while, and the things that were rewarded to her were not immediately moved to the house like before, and then asked Hu Niu to know that every time she gave Aunt Mo things finally came to her sister-in-law, from food to jewelry, and gradually Cherry was dissatisfied with her sister-in-law, and accidentally said that she had leaked her mouth several times in front of Zhen Wanyi, like the fabric bought back from the capital this time, Zhen Wanyi rewarded a plain white muslin to Cherry, Cherry also liked it very much, and said that she would wait for the hot weather to make a skirt, but she didn't expect to be cut by her sister-in-law to make a child's clothes, but she was angry with this anxious little girlγ
It's just that Zhen Wanyi generally laughed when she heard about this kind of thing, who doesn't have a difficult scripture to read, and Cherry is her person, eating and living in her yard, there is less time to go back, even if she doesn't want to go home when she is on vacation, there is a place to go, she is not afraid that Cherry will be bullied, so what kind of character is Cherry's sister-in-law Zhen Wanyi is naturally too lazy to take care of it, and besides, those things are not a problem in her opinion, so she naturally can't understand the boredom of Cherry like a cat scratch.
