Chapter 121: What Door to Go Back to?
Yiyun and Narcissus walked to the main entrance, and the coachman shouted that it was a little late today, and if he didn't hurry up, he would definitely be late, but the two of them were like glue. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Narcissus kept pulling Yiyun's hand down, he just didn't let go, emphasizing: "Although you can't eat dinner together, no one can care if you come to pick me up at the door." ā
Narcissus nodded and told him to go quickly, and he got into the carriage step by step.
After breakfast, Narcissus ran to the utility room, picked up a broom and began to sweep the yard. was sweeping the broom and suddenly took off her hand, the nurse looked at her and said with a serious face: "Aunt Xian, let's rest, there are people to do these jobs." ā
Narcissus looked at her back and wiped her hands and returned to the room, seeing that Doudou was holding her face with both hands and muttering, "It's so boring, the nurse said that I don't need to work, just accompany you." ā
Narcissus lay down on the bed silently, and Doudou chased after him and continued to ask, "Sister Narcissus, what do you usually do when you are bored?"
"As you can see, sipping tea in a private room, watching the pedestrians coming and going on the street corner, and occasionally accompanying a drink. Those sons will reveal a lot of information when they drink high, and the news of Guanyin has been inquired about all these years. ā
Doudou listened thoughtfully, "Then you are locked up now, and you can't do anything." ā
Narcissus "Huh?" looked at her, "Locked up?" ā
Doudou shook his head for a moment, didn't pay attention to what he just said, and shook his head.
Yes, the area of the private room in the Narcissus House is not half the size of this room, but it does not feel cramped, but it is comfortable. Here, the room is big, the courtyard is big, and the whole Uncle Mansion is bigger, but it seems to be imprisoned, and nothing can be done.
Doudou saw that she was stunned, and leaned over with a smile and said, "Why don't we go back to the Narcissus Residence today." Narcissus unconsciously smiled.
The two of them walked to the gate and were stopped by the doorman, "The aunt in the house can only go through the side door." ā
Doudou subconsciously said "no", the doorman glanced at Narcissus and said: "It's not nothing, look at the girl's face, it should be the fourth young master Xinna's return, go to the side door." ā
Doudou was about to refute and was dragged away by Narcissus, but when he reached the side door, he was stopped by the doorman, "Have you asked Mrs. for advice?"
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Narcissus felt strange, there were so many people in the house, if everyone went out to ask Mrs. for instructions, she would be annoyed if she was not busy to death.
The other doorman looked at them stunned, and scolded the doorman just now, asking him to speak clearly. looked at Narcissus again, "It's not Madame, it's the Fourth Young Madame, you are a person from the Fourth Young Master's courtyard, you have to have the permission of the Fourth Young Madam to go out, she sent someone to tell us, and we can let you out." ā
"The trouble is dead", Doudou suddenly shouted, "Today is the third day that my young lady has entered the door, and according to custom, she should go back to the door today, so I also have to ask for instructions?"
The doormen all laughed, Narcissus had understood, and Doudou still glared at them unconvinced.
"The little girl really treats your young lady as a lady, and the fourth young master spoils her so that she can enter the door in a sedan chair wearing red and green, and a concubine who serves people will return to the door.
Besides, isn't Aunt Xian's mother's house in Shanmen County, this time and back for several days, how dare we release people. ā
Doudou was angry and wanted to make a move, but suddenly there was a "stop" from behind, and several people turned their heads to look, the third young master was walking over, and saw Narcissus stunned, "Wow...... , no wonder the fourth brother thinks about it day and night, the younger brother and sister are really ashamed of the sunken fish and geese. ā
As he spoke, he squeezed his brows again, "But my brother and sister look a little familiar, have we seen each other?"
Narcissus bowed her head slightly, but did not answer.
The third young master patted the doorman's head, "Dog minion, you can't say anything well." ā
He turned his head to Narcissus and said with a smile: "I heard that the county lord did not return to the door on the third day, and that day happened to be the first day of the fourth brother's tenure as the chief catcher of Jingzhao Mansion, and it seems that it took several days to catch up with the fourth brother to take a break before returning to the prince's mansion."
The younger siblings have to call the fourth brother together when they return to the door. ā
Narcissus said thank you and dragged Doudou away.
The two of them were bored and walked into the garden. Narcissus asked Doudou all the way, what did the woman in the high-walled compound do every day, and Doudou didn't know what to start guessing.
When it's cold, you can't go out to embroider a purse to make new clothes, and when it's warm, you can pick flowers and flutter butterflies and kick shuttlecocks.
As he was talking, a shuttlecock flew over, and Narcissus immediately flew up, grabbed the shuttlecock with his feet up and head down, and rotated 180 degrees in the air and landed smoothly.
Several children applauded, and Wan'er ran over to take the shuttlecock and said "Huh", "Sister is so familiar." Narcissus smiled and didn't dare to speak.
A maid ran over in a panic, "Miss Wan'er, she is not a sister, she is from your fourth uncle's courtyard, her name is Aunt Xian." ā
"Fourth Uncle, Aunt Xian, Narcissus......" Wan'er thought and became excited, "It's you." ā
The maid looked at Narcissus inexplicably, and she quickly explained that they had seen it in Shanmen County. Wan'er also seemed to know that she had said the wrong thing, so she covered her mouth and ran away.
Narcissus and Doudou wandered around, and when they walked to the side of the fish pond, Doudou shouted excitedly, "It's worthy of Uncle Guo's mansion, I've never seen such a big red carp." ā
Narcissus sat down and looked at Doudou, she finally found the fun and was not depressed.
Narcissus looked around, and the whole garden was deceptively simple but elegant. There are a lot of flowers, trees, pavilions, mountain bridges, and ponds, except for the evergreen trees, which have not yet grown leaves, but they can also be seen to have been pruned and shaped.
Over the years, I haven't heard any negative news about Uncle Guo's Mansion, it seems that Uncle Guo's wife is a good housekeeper, and she can live a good life with just her money.
Thinking that she suddenly heard the sobbing sound of crying, and thought that Doudou was just about to slap her, she also raised her head, "Who is crying?"
Narcissus listened carefully, followed the sound to the back of the rockery, and saw a girl about sixteen or seventeen years old, dressed as a maid.
The girl saw Narcissus nodding her head and was about to leave, but was dragged by Doudou, "Whoever bullied you, we will avenge you." ā
She wiped her tears and looked at Narcissus and Doudou left and right, "No one bullied me, it was something wrong with my family." ā
Narcissus revealed her identity and let her say it was okay. When I heard that it was the aunt of the fourth young master, I was relieved to tell all of them.
This maid's name is Ling'er, and she is a contract maid in the laundry room, and she has two days off every month. But this month's use has passed, so grandpa can't attend the funeral.
As soon as Doudou heard that she was about to comment, saying that this kind of thing should be given extra leave, Narcissus stopped her and let Ling'er finish speaking.
She was sad not because she couldn't see her grandfather for the last time, but because her grandfather died too unjustly.
Grandpa Ling'er had a specialty, he could find good ginseng in the deep mountains and old forests, and at first their family relied on the ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum found by his grandfather to exchange money.
The first time he handed over the things to the expensive herb shop, he bought them at a high price, and told his grandfather how much he would collect, but then the money became less and less.
