46 XLVI
Yan Mingyu left through the back door and went back to Fuxia Garden directly.
As soon as he arrived at Fuxia Garden, Green Sleeves rushed up and asked, "Mingyu, didn't you follow the fourth lady to the eldest lady?" How did you come back again? What about Miss Four? ”
Yan Mingyu ignored the green sleeves, but looked at the courtyard and said, "Green Lotus, do you know where the fourth lady's umbrella is?" Looking at the sky, it will rain for a while, and the fourth lady will stay at the eldest lady's place for a while longer, and send me back to get an umbrella. ”
Lu He replied: "Oh, you know, in the treasury, I'll get it for you now." ”
"Okay." Yan Mingyu said with a smile.
Green sleeves were hung aside, seeing that Mingyu and Green Lotus had a good conversation, he ignored himself completely, and did not annoy Mingyu, but secretly said, the third and fourth ladies were really already standing in a line, otherwise why would Mingyu suddenly be so friendly to Green Lotus.
So, Green Sleeves looked at Green Lotus's gaze, and couldn't help but be a little vicious, and when he was about to turn his head to stab Yan Mingyu, Yan Mingyu had already walked to Green Leaf's side and confessed: "Green Leaf, you take an umbrella in a while, go and pick up the fourth lady and Green Bamboo." ”
"What about you, Sister Mingyu?" Green Leaf asked.
"I'm going to see Miss Su Jin and help her lose weight."
As soon as Yan Mingyu's words fell, Green Sleeves laughed: "Yes, it's time to work hard to reduce, it's the eldest lady's birthday soon, and as soon as the eldest lady's birthday passes, it will be the end of the month." As he spoke, Green Sleeves pinched his handkerchief, dusted off his sleeves, and then looked at Yan Mingyu and said, "If you don't lose weight...... " The next words, Green Sleeves didn't say, but left with a smug smile.
If you don't lose weight, Miss Cheng Si and Yan Bildyu will be punished.
Green Leaf couldn't get used to Green Sleeves' bullying appearance, but she was afraid that Green Sleeves would beat her in private, so she whispered to comfort Yan Mingyu: "Sister Mingyu, don't listen to her nonsense, Mrs. Zhu said that Miss Su Jin should be thin, but she didn't say what she looked like, a lot of thinness is thin, and being thin is also called thin, right?" ”
Hearing this, Yan Mingyu suddenly smiled, this smile made the green leaves stunned, she and Mingyu looked up and didn't look down, usually didn't pay much attention, today, this attention, found that Mingyu's smile was as bright and beautiful as a peach blossom, not at all the quiet and rigorous appearance on weekdays. Even if she is a woman, she feels that Mingyu is getting more and more beautiful, and she is so beautiful that she can't take her eyes off it.
Yan Mingyu said: "You're right. Then I'll go to Miss Su Jin first. ”
"Hmm." Green Leaf nodded slowly.
Then Yan Mingyu walked to Zhu Sujin, and after knocking on the door to sign up, Qiu Hong hurriedly opened the door and greeted him happily: "Mingyu, you are here!" ”
Yan Mingyu looked at Qiu Hong and asked, "Qiu Hong is smiling like this, isn't there any joy?" ”
Qiu Hong closed the door with her hand and said with a smile: "It can be said to be a happy event, yesterday, you just shaved for our eldest lady and slept all night, this morning, the tease on the eldest lady's face is gone, Mingyu, you are too powerful!" ”
Yan Mingyu smiled and quipped: "Don't you annoy me and shave your young lady's back like that?" I think you were annoyed. ”
Qiu Hong said embarrassedly: "It's me who blames you, don't bother me." Saying that, Qiu Hong took Yan Mingyu's hand and pulled Yan Mingyu to the window.
Zhu Sujin is writing big characters in front of the window, the light blue embroidered skirt elongates Zhu Sujin's figure, the original fat body, after a month of weight loss, at this time under the proper clothing, it looks slender and tangible. In addition, Zhu Sujin is writing big characters, and his body naturally exudes an ancient rhyme, which looks very eye-catching.
"Miss." Qiuhong said: "Mingyu is here. ”
Zhu Sujin raised his head and smiled: "Mingyu, you wait, I still have two words to write." Since gradually getting thinner, Zhu Sujin no longer treats Mingyu as a maid, but respects him like a person with a plan.
"Miss Sujin, I'm not in a hurry, you take your time. I waited. Yan Mingyu said, then sat aside and looked at Zhu Sujin quietly.
Zhu Sujin has a square face, her facial features are not as delicate as Cheng Shulan, her eyebrows are light, her nose is not straight enough, her T area is dark, and her lips are light.
At this time, Qiu Hong brought a cup of flower tea, which was the intestinal cleansing tea that Yan Mingyu gave her, and Qiu Hong said, "Mingyu, do you know? This time on Miss Cheng's birthday, our wife also came. ”
Yan Mingyu was not surprised by this, Zhu Sujin took Qiuhong to live in Cheng Mansion, and Mrs. Zhu occasionally wrote to ask, presumably Mrs. Zhu delivered the letter to inform in advance, so she asked: "Then dare to be kind, I don't know when Mrs. Zhu will arrive?" ”
"The day after tomorrow." Qiuhong replied: "The evening after tomorrow should come." ”
"The day after tomorrow? Our eldest lady's birthday is three days later. ”
"Yes, Madame is worried about our eldest lady, saying that she will arrive a day early, so it is better to come and see the eldest lady and talk to the eldest lady, and the meeting is going to spend a night in Chengfu."
Yan Mingyu nodded, pondering.
Qiu Hong put the teapot back in its place, and said again: "I heard that there are many dignitaries and nobles who came to Chengfu this time, except for the ladies and ladies who celebrated Miss Cheng's sixteenth birthday, and the old men who came to congratulate Chengfu Textile Factory on winning the palace award, it will be lively then!" "In the past month, Qiu Hong has accompanied Zhu Sujin and has been in Fuxia Garden, almost never out of the gate, in the second gate and three gates, it is also sneaky and breathable, at most, taking advantage of the darkness of the night, skipping rope and playing in the yard, all as a diet to lose weight. Thinking that in three days, she would be able to leave Fuxia Garden and meet many people, she was full of expectations.
Yan Mingyu smiled and asked, "Are you in a hurry here?" ”
"There's no hurry." Qiu Hong shook her head: "As long as the eldest lady can lose weight, I am willing to stay like this for a year." ”
"Net nonsense, let you stay for a year, you don't cry down the door frame." Zhu Sujin finished writing the big characters, and when he put down the pen, he smiled and took another sentence.
Qiu Hong smiled.
At this moment, Lu Zhu's voice came along with the sound of knocking on the door: "Miss Su Jin, is Mingyu here?" ”
"It's green bamboo." Autumn Red Road.
"Luzhu, I'm here, you wait a minute." Immediately, Yan Mingyu stood up and said, "Miss Su Jin, it must be our fourth miss who came back to look for me." You rest first, and Miss Four and I will come to see you later. ”
"I'm leaving." Zhu Sujin is still a little reluctant.
Yan Mingyu said: "Miss Su Jin, don't worry, there will be many people to talk to you for two more days." ”
Zhu Sujin looked at Yan Mingyu, if she wasn't thin, she might not feel anything about this, but she had lost weight, and the degree of thinness had exceeded her expectations, so she was convinced of Yan Mingyu's words and said, "Well, I'm not in a hurry." ”
Then, Yan Mingyu followed Luzhu to leave Zhu Sujin's room and went to see Cheng Shulan.
Cheng Shulan was rummaging through the suitcase at this time, pulling out a green coat, a blue coat, and a red coat from the suitcase, all of which were not satisfied.
"Fourth Miss." After Yan Mingyu entered the door, she saw Cheng Shulan as if she was selling clothes, so she asked, "Fourth Miss, what are you doing?" ”
Cheng Shulan turned around and said, "Mingyu, come and see, do you like any of my clothes here?" ”
"Does Miss Fourth want to give me clothes?" Yan Mingyu asked.
"Hmm." Cheng Shulan said: "Three days later is the birthday of the eldest sister, and everyone will be dressed beautifully." I have a new dress here, I haven't worn it yet, I think the two of us are about the same size, why don't you wear this? ”
Yan Mingyu didn't look at the clothes that Cheng Shulan was pointing to, but asked, "Did the eldest lady say that the maids had to wear new clothes that day?" ”
Cheng Shulan was stunned for a moment and replied, "No." ”
"Since there are no other maids, what would they think if I was the only one wearing new clothes?"
Cheng Shulan was immediately stopped by Yan Mingyu, and immediately scolded herself for not thinking it through.
Yan Mingyu said with a smile: "Fourth Miss's mind, Mingyu understands it." However, we need to be cautious now, and we must not go out of line. ”
Cheng Shulan was stunned when she heard this, that's right, what Mingyu said is not wrong at all, now is not the time to enjoy, every step may be dangerous, so every step must be careful and careful, otherwise, as soon as she stands up, she will be knocked down again, and she may never be able to get up again. Cheng Shulan looked at Yan Mingyu gratefully.
Yan Mingyu didn't look at her, but began to fold the clothes and put the clothes neatly into the suitcase one by one.
Cheng Shulan stepped forward to help.
After a while, Cheng Shulan talked about asking for good morning today.
"The eldest lady has been busy lately, so I plan to skip the morning and evening for three days from tomorrow. Free time, she takes care of the affairs of the house. Cheng Shulan said.
Yan Mingyu thought about it, and it was right. The daily good morning and good night are indeed a waste of time, and time is especially precious when it is so busy, so I asked: "Do you have any plans for the fourth lady these three days?" ”
Cheng Shulan thought for a moment and said, "There are no important plans. ”
Yan Mingyu asked, "The fourth young lady, do you know that Mrs. Zhu will come to the house the day after tomorrow?" ”
"I don't know." Cheng Shulan shook her head.
Yan Mingyu looked at her and asked, "So, do you know now?" ”
Cheng Shulan was stunned for a moment, feeling that Mingyu had something to say, so she asked, "Mingyu, what do you mean?" ”
Yan Mingyu smiled lightly: "It means that the fourth lady will greet the eldest lady tomorrow as usual, and it will not fall sooner or later." ”
"However, the eldest lady is so busy that she may not see me."
"It doesn't matter if I see you or not."
Cheng Shulan couldn't keep up with Yan Mingyu's mind and asked, "If the eldest lady sees me, what should I do?" ”
"When you see you, you beg her to let Mrs. Zhu stay in Fuxia Garden at night."
"She doesn't agree?"
"She's definitely not going to agree."
Surely will not agree? Cheng Shulan was even more confused, but she still did it.
That night, there was a torrential wind and rain, and the next morning, the roads inside and outside the hospital were wet.
Lu Zhu helped Cheng Shulan and said, "Fourth Miss, there is water in this piece, be careful not to splash it." ”
"yes, got it." Cheng Shulan Road.
Cheng Shulan and Luzhu avoided the puddle and walked towards Mrs. Cheng, and as soon as they arrived at Mrs. Cheng's yard, Mother Du was surprised: "Fourth Miss, why are you here?" Didn't the eldest lady say it yesterday morning? Are the morning and good night gifts waived for the next three days? Doesn't Miss Four know? ”
Cheng Shulan smiled: "I know." I came to my mother to talk about something. ”
Mother Du looked at Cheng Shulan quietly, secretly wondering what the "matter" in Cheng Shulan's mouth meant, probably referring to the matter of Miss Zhufu, right? Mother Du hesitated for a moment and said, "Fourth Miss, it's really unfortunate, the eldest lady is reconciling accounts early in the morning, I'm afraid I won't be free for a while." ”
"I don't have time." Cheng Shulan said in frustration: "Nadu's mother asked the eldest lady for me, I'll come back in the evening." ”
"Yes, Fourth Lady walks slowly." Du's mother said.
"Hmm." Cheng Shulan left with the green bamboo.
Du's mother looked at the backs of the two until they turned around and disappeared. She just went to the eldest lady's room and reported: "The fourth lady said that she had something to talk to you about with the eldest lady?" ”
"Oh, I'm not available." Mrs. Cheng didn't pay much attention.
Du's mother is no longer open.
As a result, in the evening, Cheng Shulan took the green bamboo to the eldest lady again.
Mother Du said: "Fourth Miss, there's really no way, the eldest lady is too busy, otherwise, if you have something, I'll give you a message, how about it?" ”
Cheng Shulan's face was embarrassed.
Mother Du was right, Cheng Shulan's expression was patiently waiting.
Cheng Shulan thought left and right for a while before she said, "Sister Tingsu, Mrs. Zhu will come to the mansion tomorrow...... So, I have something I want to say to my mother. ”
Mother Du's eyes flashed with a gleam, sure enough, Miss Cheng Si was really for Zhu Sujin's business, she smiled and said: "Okay, as soon as the eldest lady is free, I will talk to her about it, Miss Four, don't worry." Mother Du pretended to be appeased, and when she saw that Cheng Shulan's face was anxious, her heart was dark.
After Cheng Shulan left with the green bamboo, Du's mother took advantage of the eldest lady's time to tell Mrs. Cheng Shulan about Cheng Shulan.
Mrs. Cheng snorted: "I know that she is for Zhu Sujin's business, and she can't reduce Zhu Sujin's weight, so she wants to find a way from me, so that she can stammer Mrs. Zhu, this girl Shulan is really good at pleasing her!" ”
"Then does the eldest lady see or not see the fourth lady? The fourth lady looked anxious. Du's mother said.
Mrs. Cheng smiled and said, "Mrs. Zhu must want to see Zhu Sujin in advance when she comes tomorrow, since the lady is so anxious, then I can't let Mrs. Zhu see Zhu Sujin immediately, otherwise, how can the ladies be able to see Miss Cheng Si's beauty ability?" ”
"Yes, the eldest lady is thoughtful, on the day of the banquet, as soon as Miss Zhu appeared, not only did she not lose weight, but she became fatter. Others will only say that Cheng Fu is kind to guests. But she will say that Miss Cheng Si is in vain, coupled with Mrs. Zhu's splashing, accusing a concubine, she is the best. ”
"That's it." Saying that, Mrs. Cheng said: "Mother Du, tomorrow you will pick up two of Miss Zhufu's favorite snacks and send them to Fuxia Garden." ”
"Yes, Madame."
"Remember, it's her favorite food." Mrs. Cheng emphasized again.
Mother Du raised her eyes to Mrs. Shangcheng's eyes, and got a message from the eldest lady's different eyes, and said, "Mrs. Cheng, don't worry. ”
Mrs. Cheng hummed softly.
Another day passed, early in the morning, Cheng Shulan still took Luzhu to the eldest lady, but still did not see the eldest lady.
Du's mother explained: "Today, we have to count the guest list and set up the seats, and these big ladies are all looking at them one by one, and they can't make forks." ”
"I heard that Mrs. Zhu will arrive in the evening, I don't know which room she lives in?"
"I don't know yet." Du's mother replied.
"I'll wait here when Mother is done." Cheng Shulan Road.
Mother Du's persuasion was useless, and said, "Then I'll report it again." ”
At the same time, Cheng Shulan went to the eldest lady for two days in a row to say goodbye, but there was no news of the eldest lady, which reached the ears of Cheng Molan, Cheng Hualan and Cheng Qinlan.
At this time, Cheng Molan, Cheng Hualan, and Cheng Qinlan were enjoying the flowers in the courtyard, and the three of them did not meet to enjoy the flowers together, but they happened to meet, and it happened that Cheng Molan's maid told the news.
Cheng Qinlan smiled first: "The fourth sister is really filial." ”
Cheng Molan turned to Cheng Qinlan.
Although Cheng Qinlan is unhappy with Cheng Molan in her heart, Cheng Molan is a concubine and the biological daughter of the eldest lady, and her status is low. Immediately, he said: "The fourth sister must be because of the eldest sister's birthday, Mrs. Zhu is coming, and Sister Su is not thin, so she is in a hurry and wants to seek help from her mother." ”
Cheng Molan snorted disdainfully, I don't know if this disdain is for Cheng Qinlan or Cheng Shulan. In short, Cheng Qinlan's face is not good-looking.
And Cheng Hualan is still silent as usual.
"Second sister, why do you think the fourth sister went to her mother with a dead face?" Cheng Qinlan asked, using the words "dead skin and face".
Cheng Hualan replied with a smile: "The third sister doesn't know, where will I know." ”
"I know you won't know. You don't know what to ask. Cheng Qinlan glanced at Cheng Hualan and turned her head.
Cheng Hualan smiled, pondering, Yan Mingyu asked Cheng Shulan to find the eldest lady, what is the purpose? Why do you go when you know there will be no results?
Cheng Shulan was guarding outside the door of the eldest lady, and after a while, three or two servant women came out of the hall, and after a while, Mother Du came out and said, "Fourth Miss, the eldest lady is free at this time, you can go in." ”
Cheng Shulan was overjoyed, and ordered Luzhu to wait here, she lifted her skirt up the steps and entered the hall.
Mrs. Cheng was holding the tea bowl, gently stroking the tea leaves in the bowl with the tea lid, and said, "I heard that you have come to say hello in the past two days, morning and evening?" ”
"It's not to say goodbye, it's something to discuss with my mother." Cheng Shulan Road.
Mrs. Cheng asked a little tiredly, "Discuss Mrs. Zhu's affairs?" ”
"Yes, Mother." Cheng Shulan said with a straight look: "Shulan wants to invite Mrs. Zhu to Fuxia Garden to spend the night, firstly, Sister Su is in Fuxiayuan, and secondly, Shulan wants to ask Mrs. Zhu for guilt. ”
Mrs. Cheng took a sip of tea and listened to Cheng Shulan's narration silently, she heard it, Cheng Shulan meant to close the door, kneel on the ground and beg for mercy, and beg Mrs. Zhu to forgive her, she failed to make Zhu Sujin thinner and more beautiful, please read Mrs. Zhu's friendship with Cheng Mansion, keep people in her mouth, don't ruin her reputation as Miss Cheng Si's beauty artist, otherwise she won't be able to get along in Cheng Mansion and in the circle of Los Angeles.
Cheng Shulan said: "Please also ask my mother to fulfill it." ”
Mrs. Cheng put down the tea bowl and said lightly: "Then I will persuade Mrs. Zhu, I hope she can look at the simplicity of Fuxia Garden." ”
Cheng Shulan's face couldn't hide her joy, and she hurriedly blessed herself: "Thank you, mother, thank you mother." ”
The expression on Mrs. Cheng's face remained unchanged: "Don't be happy too early, Mrs. Zhu has always acted in a strange way, if she really doesn't want to go, I can't do it." ”
"Yes, Shulan knows. However, as long as her mother is willing to help Shulan, Shulan is much more relieved. ”
Mrs. Cheng sneered quietly.
Mother Du, who was guarding outside the room, was quite curious when she saw Cheng Shulan coming out with a happy face, and entered the room and asked, "Mrs. Major, did you promise the fourth lady to let Mrs. Zhu go to Fuxiayuan to rest?" ”
"Well, yes."
"That ......"
"It's one thing to agree, but it's another thing for Mrs. Zhu not to go." Mrs. Cheng said slowly: "Mother Du, your snacks should also be delivered." ”
"Yes, Madame, I'll go." Saying that, Du's mother carried the snack box and went to Fuxia Garden.
Mother Du prevented Cheng Shulan and others from becoming suspicious, and still let the vegetable delivery maid, carrying the snack box, into Fuxia Garden, she specially explained that she must hand it over to Zhu Sujin's maid Qiuhong, and she can't give it to other maids in Fuxia Garden, it is best to avoid Miss Cheng Si and Mingyu.
So, the little maid carried the snack box and entered Fuxia Garden. Then followed Green Sleeves to Zhu Sujin's door and handed the snack box to Qiu Hong.
Qiuhong carried the dim sum box into the room, opened it and saw that all of them were the snacks that the eldest lady loved to eat, candied cherries, golden cake rolls, mung bean crisps, sesame sugar, etc., the style was exquisite, the color was bright, and people couldn't help but want to eat at a glance.
Qiuhong swallowed.
Zhu Sujin looked at it and straightened her eyes, mainly because she subconsciously thought that she hadn't touched these things for too long, as if she had been in a lifetime and hadn't eaten snacks. She eats and drinks according to Mingyu's recipe every day, and the more she loses weight, the more perseverance she has, and the stricter Mingyu becomes.
It's good that I can't see the food, but now that I see it, the previous big appetite and appetite are hooked, and it seems a little uncontrollable.
Qiu Hong struggled inwardly, and Zhu Sujin was also struggling.
Autumn red should be covered with the lid of the snack box.
Zhu Sujin shouted, "Wait a minute." ”
Qiu Hong stopped, turned her head and asked, "Miss, do you really want to eat?" ”
Zhu Sujin said: "If you don't talk to Mingyu when you eat, Mingyu will be angry." ”
"There's a lot of pieces in this plate, and she won't know about eating one. I'll just try it? Qiu Hong said, she really felt that her eldest lady worked hard in order to lose weight, and she couldn't eat a fat person in one bite, eat it, and if she didn't eat it in the future, it would be fine, and the eldest lady would not become fat because of this bite, just satisfy her hunger.
Zhu Sujin was shaken by what he said: "Take a piece, and we will eat half of it?" ”
"Uh-huh." Qiu Hong took the lid of the snack box aside again: "The two of us eat a small piece and taste it." 166 Reading Network
