Chapter 177: Go and Stay
Cinnamon and lily walked away in gray.
Of course, this was not their intention.
When Chunfeng, Xia Xi and a few others appeared with a group of girls and mothers-in-law, they originally wanted to continue to play with the breeze, but when they opened their mouths and spit out a word, Xia Xi snorted coldly: "What are you still doing stupidly, why don't you immediately kick out these two quiet things that have made a noise, waiting for me to do it myself?" ”
Immediately, several stout mothers-in-law pounced on them like wolves, and couldn't help but say that a few of them set up the arms of Guixiang and Lily, and a few took handkerchiefs to plug their mouths, and immediately dragged the two of them out like dead people, but it was only a blink of an eye, and the movements were neat and tight.
Bi'er looked dumbfounded.
And then, she saw boxes and boxes of things being carried in, but after half a day's work, the entire abandoned yard was completely new. I don't see the original deserted appearance anymore, although it is not very magnificent, but it is neat, clean and bright, and it is completely new.
Even the plaque has been replaced with a Sycamore-in.
At that time, the girl named Xia Xi looked at the whole yard and muttered dissatisfiedly: "Why haven't you picked a single plane tree?" Miss loves the feeling of stepping on the top when the sycamore leaves fall, Ming'er, you have to ask someone to get a few trees to come and plant it. This is the time when the leaves fall the most. ”
And what shocked Bi'er the most was that during the whole process, so many people in the yard didn't make a loud noise. In a state of near-silence, all the qiē was completed.
"Ha, look at your previous courtesy, didn't you give it in vain? My aunt has so many capable subordinates, even those rough girls, who look like flowers, how can they fall in love with you like this? People, you still have to accept your fate! ”
Someone laughed at Bi'er Dao.
Bi'er's heart was indeed half cold.
After seeing the actions of these subordinates, she also knew that before, she had completely mistaken this new aunt. can train such a powerful subordinate, how can the master be a good-natured girl who doesn't understand the world? The reason why he did so little before was just that he was too lazy to do it himself and lost his dignity.
And there are so many outstanding girls around her, and there is no shortage of people to call, I am afraid that I will not have this opportunity.
Bi'er is not presumptuous, and feels that if she has the opportunity, she will not do worse than Xia Xi and them. However, no matter how capable she is, how can she be as reliable as her original person in the Zhenbei Palace?
Even if it were Bi'er herself, she would choose it this way.
However, no matter how disappointed she is, Bi'er can't allow herself to be made fun of by these people. What's wrong with her wanting to climb the high branches, wanting to climb up? Could it be that like these people, they will sweep and mop the floor every day in this remote corner all their lives, and then give a random horse feeder and gatekeeper, and have a few more children, and when they grow up, they will sweep the floor and feed the horses?
How can you be willing?
Such an ant-like fate.
She wouldn't give up, and if she had the chance, she would do it again. Even if they fail, they are better than these people who complain about their fate while doing nothing, and just live one day at a time.
What right do these people who don't even work hard have to laugh at themselves?
Bi'er sneered: "Even if I am courteous in vain, it is better than some people who disrespect their masters." You say, even the Guixiang girl, the lily girl, and the girl around the aunt dare to ask someone to throw them out, if you know that yesterday, someone actually gave the aunt cold water to drink, you say, what will happen to that person? ”
As soon as she said this, the face of the girl who ridiculed Bi'er immediately turned white, not only her, but also the faces of other girls and mothers-in-law.
Now, they understand.
Even if Red Seven fell out of favor, to rectify them is no different from pinching dead ants. Moreover, looking at the boxes and boxes of things that were moved in, it was simply more than the dowry of ordinary daughters. And the original things here have been cleaned out like garbage. These are also good things, even if it is a remote yard, the furniture is not bad, but people are not rare at all, which shows the richness of people's families.
With these things, even if you lose the favor of the prince, you can live comfortably for a lifetime.
Really, how could anyone give so many things to be an aunt?
And how will she punish them for neglecting Red Seven?
Many people's hearts began to feel uneasy.
"How dare she do this to us!"
"I fought with her."
Guixiang, who was thrown out and lost face, began to fall, and when she finally came to her senses and jumped up, she was about to rush in to settle the account.
Lily pulled her helplessly.
"What?"
Guixiang turned her head and glared at Lily angrily.
"What's the use of you rushing in, waiting to be thrown out again?"
Lily is not angry.
Guixiang is just a little impulsive, but she's not really stupid. There are many people on the other side, and looking at the sum of those girls, I am afraid that there are not twenty or thirty, and the people who serve them are only one person and two girls. It's just called over, what use can it be?
"So that's it?"
Guixiang is not willing to be authentic.
The corners of Lily's mouth curved slightly: "She is a concubine, we are just a room, what can we do with her?" However, just because we can't do it doesn't mean that others can't do it. ”
"You mean?"
Guixiang's eyes lit up.
Lily smiled and nodded.
"That's her."
The two wrote a letter and quietly sent it to the British government.
And when the first qiē was almost finished, the Red Seven masters and servants who had not been seen for some days could finally talk properly in the clean room.
"These short-sighted minions dare to snub Miss like this, look at how I will clean them up in the future!"
Xia Xi's willow eyebrows were raised, and there was evil in his eyes. Thinking that they had let Hong Qi sleep in a dusty room, Xia Xi wanted to break the legs of those people's dogs. And this courtyard, what is it all shabby? Is it for people to live in? What else is the Zhenbei Wangfu, even their red family is not as good.
Actually, this is also quite normal.
Even if the Zhenbei Wangfu is powerful and rich, no matter how good the mansion is, it is also for the masters of the Zhenbei Wangfu to enjoy, such as the princess of Zhenbei, for example, Miss Li Tong, for example, the prince Li Mo......
Like Li Mo's East Courtyard where Hong Qi lived before, the grandeur and luxury are elegant, even the Runan Palace, which is not as good as the palace, like the priceless treasure that Hong Qi received a fist-sized night pearl on the day he became a parent, and people actually used it directly to set it on the pillar for lighting, although each one is not bigger than the one of Red Qi, but it can't hold the number of it. In Li Mo's house, there was no open fire.
The great wealth of the Zhenbei Wangfu can be seen from this point alone.
But no matter how rich and noble she is, Hong Qi is just a concubine, and Li Mo still annoyed her, asked her to move out overnight, and also ordered her to be given a remote courtyard.
In fact, compared to the aunt of the Red Mansion, this courtyard is much more spacious.
But compared with the treatment of Miss Hongqi, who is the head of the Red Mansion and is ultimately valued, it is naturally not the same. Even compared to the houses of a few maidens, it is not as good as that.
It's not just Xia Xi who can't get used to it, but also a few other girls, how can they get used to it?
Qiushuang also said: "Count me in." People like Miss are also things they can abuse. These minions of the Zhenbei Wangfu are really not like words. ”
"Just, that's, I'm going to ...... them"
Dongxue clenched her little fists and wanted to say something cruel, but she was not threatening at all.
What kind of treatment is Red Seven in the Red Family? Even when she was stupid, she had never been treated so badly, not to mention that she was now the head of the Hong family, who was not serving carefully, I was afraid that she would feel a little uncomfortable. As a result, it has only been a long time since I arrived here, and I have suffered such a great sin.
The spring breeze is not a taste in his heart, but in the end, he is more serious: "Forget it, right?" Stop. In the end, this is the Zhenbei Palace, are we better more restrained? ”
The spring breeze said uneasily.
It's not that she hasn't seen the world, and with Hong Qi also going to Runan Wangfu a few times, the rich atmosphere is incomparable to Hongfu. But compared with the Zhenbei Palace, it is the Runan Palace, which is also a step behind, with groups of koi fish raised in the stream, railings made of white jade, and countless rare flowers and trees...... Hongba is also a lover of flowers, for this reason, Hongfu has collected a lot of famous products for her, and every time she cultivates a good one, when the flowers bloom, she always has to show off in front of the people of the whole house.
So, the spring breeze also recognizes some.
And these rare and famous products, in Zhenbei Wangfu, can be seen everywhere, just like the wildflowers on the roadside.
is such a prominent family, but Hong Qi's current identity is just a concubine, and the concubine is lowly, and she should be a talent with her tail between her legs to keep her safe.
And now, Xia Xi's order came too quickly, those mothers-in-law have long been accustomed to the style of doing things in Wutong Courtyard, and without thinking, just like in the Hong family, Xia Xi's order was immediately started, and they didn't hesitate. It was too late to stop the spring breeze, and even if it was too late, it couldn't just come to Zhenbei Wangfu to refute Xia Xi in front of those subordinates, so that others could watch a good show.
However, Chunfeng's heart has always been unsteady.
After all, the status of Red Seven is completely different from that in the Red Mansion.
Xia Xi is so public, it won't cause trouble, right?
Hearing the words of the spring breeze, Xia Xi pursed his lips.
"See what they do to Miss? This place is not a good place. If you give others one point, others will only be afraid that they will score ten points. If you are not ruthless, how can you deter those small ones? Is it possible, but we young ladies can't swallow their anger? ”
"I can't stand being stingy, maybe it will cause even more anger. Today, that Guixiang and Lily heard that it is the Tongfang of the prince of Zhenbei, if they sue the prince and the prince is annoyed, what should I do? The situation is not clear, so you mess around, you are like this, just causing trouble for the young lady. When the time comes, if the prince of Zhenbei is really angry and asks someone to punish the young lady, can we do it against the entire Zhenbei Palace? ”
Spring breeze airway.
She had been holding back these words for a day, and at this time, she just said them.
Xia Xi glared at the spring breeze and wanted to refute. However, I really couldn't think of a way. It's just that Hong Qi is extremely noble in her mind, how can she accept that Hong Qi wants to be in this mansion, just like those aunts in the Red Mansion, looking at other people's faces all day long, and living cautiously?
Although, she knew in her heart that what Chunfeng said was actually correct.
"Chunfeng's concerns are reasonable." Hong Qi finally spoke at this time.
"Miss."
Xia Xi was not at all dissatisfied with Hong Qi's words, and remorse appeared on her face.
"I'm sorry that Xia Xi has caused you trouble, in the future, I will pay attention to proportion."
There was a smile in Chunfeng's eyes.
"However," Hong Qi's words took a turn: "In this matter, Xia Xi did it right. If you let any cat or dog bark in front of you, will you still be called a person this day? ”
"You all remember how I was in the house, and when I got here, how to do the same reads;."
"It's okay to have a broken bone, but it's not okay to have no backbone."
"It's not my personality to be aggrieved and look at people's faces to live. So it was in the Red House, and it is so here too; This is true for the head of the family, and the same is true for being a concubine. ”
The benefits and disadvantages, Hong Qi has already thought about it.
It is of course the instinct of animals to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
However, people are different from animals.
There are some things that we know we can't do, but we have to do them.
She, after all, is not a woman of this era, and her own character is also arrogant, so she doesn't want to do this kind of thing!
"So, it's not necessarily a blessing to be here. This is not the Red Family, as Chunfeng said, if something really happens, I can't protect myself, let alone protect you. So, you'd better think about whether you want to stay or not. Perhaps, one is not good, and it is possible to give up your life. ”
"Don't worry, I will arrange your back road for you, and it will also fulfill the friendship of our master and servant."
Red Seven gave a few girls to choose from.
"The spring breeze will never leave Miss alone."
Chunfeng said resolutely, without the slightest hesitation.
"Autumn frost too."
"Winter snow too."
Xia Xi didn't speak, but so did his expression.
Hong Qi's heart warmed slightly.
"Then, let's all come and break into the North Wangfu of this town and see what jackals, tigers and leopards are in it!"
Red Qiyi smiled, faintly, as at any time before.
Suddenly, the uneasiness in Chunfeng's heart began to subside, and confidence arose. So far, they have encountered many crises that others can't think of, and there are many times when they think that they are coming to an end, that they are over. However, when did the young lady not break out of the way when everyone thought it was impossible?
This town is in the North Wangfu, even if it is the Longtan Tiger's Den, follow the young lady, you can also walk out of a broad road!
Chunfeng looked at Xia Xi, Xia Xi's eyes were full of trust in Hong Qi, she had never doubted it. Therefore, when he arrived at the Zhenbei Palace, he used such thunderous methods without the slightest hesitation. As for Hong Qi's understanding, unconsciously, Xia Xi seemed to be deeper than her.
Even if it was the Zhenbei Palace, Hong Qi would not swallow his anger and bow his head like this.
Xia Xi, you've never doubted this, right?
Therefore, relying only on this intuition, Xia Xi did not hesitate to take decisive action when he first came to Zhenbei Wangfu.
And he, the two big girls who are most trusted and valued by Red Qi, far exceeded Qiushuang and Dongxue, but at that time, he hesitated.
All along, Chunfeng has some resentment in his heart and some can't figure it out.
However, this time, she understood.
Unconsciously, Xia Xi already knew more about Red Seven than her, and she knew better what Red Seven wanted. How can such a Xia Xi not make Red Seven more dependent?
However, the spring breeze clenched his fists.
She's not going to lose.
Xia Xi saw the challenged gaze of the spring breeze, this was the first time that the gentle spring breeze showed such a gaze to her, looking at the eyes of the opponent.
Xia Xi raised his chin, not to be outdone.
Until the end, who will win and who will lose, and who knows?
The eyes of the two collided in the air, and sparks burst out.
Autumn frost and winter snow were slightly startled. It used to be just a mutual temptation in the dark, but is it finally about to be brought to the surface? Autumn Frost frowned, and Winter Snow wrung her fingers a little helplessly.
The fact that Guixiang and Lily touched a nose of ash here in Hongqi naturally can't escape the eyes of those who have a heart, and soon, everyone who should know will know.
"It's really useless, I didn't even see anyone, so I threw it out to the girl, the two of them, don't you lose face! If I were them, I would just jump into the lake. ”
Li Tong is still waiting to watch a good show, if you can't watch it, you can listen to a good show.
The result?
After waiting for such a disappointing result for a long time, Li Tong really hated Guixiang and Lily to the extreme.
The eldest grandson and princess frowned slightly, not too happy.
It's just a concubine, which is too arrogant. As a wife, no one has a good impression of the concubine, and An'an is just divided. This kind of flamboyance should be cleaned up.
The demeanor of the eldest grandson princess naturally fell in Li Tong's eyes.
She instigated: "Mother, this Red Seven is so arrogant, what are the rules that a concubine should have?" If it spreads, our family won't be laughed at. Why don't you beat her well? ”
The eldest grandson, the princess, was also very moved.
Li Tong's eyes lit up, as if there was a door.
As a result, in the end, the eldest princess just instructed: "Spread this matter to the prince and see how he reacts?" ”
"Master."
Shuying called softly, placing a cup of tea on the table. She is the most useful big girl by Li Mo's side, and she has followed Li Mo for the longest time, and she knows his temperament and habits the most.
Li Mo picked up the teacup, but he didn't see the shadow retreating, so he asked, "But what's the matter?" ”
"It's Miss Guixiang and Miss Lily, saying that because Aunt Hong is the highest status among the women around the prince, they went to visit her according to the ceremony, but no one saw her, and Aunt Hong's girl couldn't help but throw them out."
"Cinnamon and lily?"
Li Mo blinked.
There was a little smile in Shuying's eyes.
"It's two of the girls that Madame gave to the master, and the master has been to their room twice."
"Oh."
Li Mo had long forgotten about it.
"When is it worth talking to me about such a trivial matter?"
Li Mo said lightly.
"It's the princess, I want to know what the prince means, how to deal with this matter. Although Guixiang and Lily girls are reckless, and Aunt Hong's status is also high, after all, she has just entered the house, so she is so flamboyant and does not know how to spare people. If she is allowed to act like this without any scruples, I am afraid that it will make the original girls in the house feel unfair. The princess said, shouldn't she also warn Aunt Hong and give a punishment, it's okay......"
Shuying's words were not finished, because she noticed Li Mo's displeasure.
Li Mo only said one sentence.
"Red Seven is mine."
On the word "my", Li Mo accentuated his tone.
His things, no matter what they want, can only be done by him. He can drop the red seven hair in the middle of nowhere, he can snub her, he can ignore her.
However, this absolutely does not mean that his things can be manipulated by others.
"Also, those two women, I don't want to see them again."
Shuying quietly retreated and conveyed Li Mo's meaning.
On the same day, two people disappeared from the house.
Some of the people who were about to move quieted down.
So, I thought that there would be all kinds of house fights in the future, but I found that their lives were quite leisurely, and they couldn't be more peaceful. made a few people a little inexplicable, and they all said that this wealthy family said that the dragon and the tiger were fighting, and none of the women in it were easy to mess with, why did they pick them up so much that day, and there was no more follow-up?
A few girls didn't relax because of this, but became more vigilant reads;.
I don't know what kind of means others will use, so they start to guard against it from the inside. It turned out that the subordinates of Wutong Courtyard were originally sent out according to the meaning of the spring breeze and Xia Xi, so as not to make any moths. However, it was vetoed to Red Seven. They want to live here for a short time, and isolating themselves is not a good strategy, but they should be befriended and bought by those who should be bought, so that they can become eyes and ears.
After all, they are much more aware of the affairs of the Zhenbei Palace.
Among them, Hong Qi especially focused on Bi'er, so that Chunfeng and Xia Xi could promote her.
Sure enough, with such a means, all the news in the Zhenbei Wangfu was continuously sent to Hongqi, the temperament and preferences of each master, the housekeeper and mother who got the face, in a short period of time, this originally unfamiliar Zhenbei Wangfu gradually had an outline.
And under the generous reward, Hong Qi's reputation in the mansion also soared at the same time, and everyone praised her, saying that she had a good temper, would be considerate, generous, and charitable, so angry that Li Tong's stomach hurt.
However, after the eldest princess got the news from Shuying, she warned her very harshly, telling her not to provoke Hong Qi.
Li Tong was so angry in the mansion that he couldn't stay any longer, and this day, the eldest grandson Piaoxue happened to write a post inviting her to have a small gathering, and Li Tong ran to the British mansion angrily.
"What's wrong?"
"Unhappy about that?"
"Who else in this capital has the courage to provoke our Miss Li?"
The eldest grandson, Piaoxue, pushed Li Tong's favorite dim sum in front of her, and it was still hot. Li Tong smiled: "You are still the best to me, so I like to come to you to play the most." ”
However, after taking a bite, he said angrily: "Who else will there be?" It's not that annoying red seven yet! ”
The eldest grandson Piaoxue's eyes were cold, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was more gentle.
"What's wrong with Red Seven? Didn't she just enter the house? Li Tong said angrily, and after finishing speaking, he looked at the eldest grandson Piaoxue. You say, what should I do now? I just can't get used to the smug and rampant appearance of the red seven. However, the eldest brother protected her again, and her mother didn't let her touch. It's hard to see her rampant like this. I'm suffocating, give me an idea. ”
