Chapter 121: Conflict
The people of Lianfu did not come that day.
Hua Bud was a little worried, but Hao's mother shook her head and said, "There should be something delayed." If Lianfu doesn't send things over, the reputation of the eldest lady will be completely gone, so you are blindly worried. "The niece and concubine went to the mountain to pray for the old lady who passed away, and the eldest lady did not send anything to the mountain, and the spit stars would drown the eldest lady.
As Hao's mother said, Lianjia sent something over the next day.
Seeing Yueyao and Yueying, the steward hurriedly explained the reason for the belation: "The eldest girl, the third girl, should have sent things over yesterday. It's just that the fifth young master has a fever and has been in a coma for a day and a night, so it will be postponed until today, and I ask the eldest girl and the third girl to be considerate. ”
Hua Bud sneered on the side: "Fortunately, when the fifth young master had a fever, my girl was not in the mansion, otherwise I don't know what hat to deduct on my girl's head?" The subtext of this sentence is obvious, if their girls are in the mansion, it is not their girls' fault.
The big girl next to the third girl, Hua Bud, is notoriously sharp and unforgiving, and the person in charge can only play haha, and he doesn't answer, which will not be good.
The steward originally wanted to send things to Hao's mother's house, but Yueyao said, "Everything will be sent to Cailan's house." ”
Cai Lan is gone, why is it that their house is like this, and they put all the things in their house, and then they won't even have a place to turn.
Hua Bud said happily: "There are four people on our side, three people on your side, and there is also a dinner table in our house, where can we put it if we don't put it in your room?" ”
Cai Lan wanted to say something, but Yue Yao said to Yue Ying: "I think my uncle will definitely send someone to send things over in the next two days, so these things can only be put on your side." "Yueyao's subtext is that the things sent by her uncle can't be put on Yueying's side!
Yueying didn't say anything, but Cai Lan's little face was red, and her uncle was amazing! Show off!
There are a lot of things sent this time, and Guangyue Yao has twelve cages, all of which are heavy clothes. In addition, there are several boxes of paper prepared by Deng's mother.
Yueying's side is relatively small, there are only eight cages, these cages are clothes and jewelry, and there are some daily necessities, and personal things are naturally delivered to their rooms.
Cai Qing is responsible for receiving, and the buds are counted on the side.
The face of the flower bud was not good-looking, and he asked, "Third housekeeper, why didn't you send charcoal?" The girl had to copy the scriptures at night, and she couldn't stand it without charcoal. She had long been worried that the people in the mansion would fall, but she didn't expect it to fall.
The third steward was only responsible for delivering things, which were handed over to him by the purchasing office, and replied, "When I go back, I will tell my wife, and I will definitely send them next time." ”
Hua Bud knew that it was useless even if she was angry, but she thought that it would take half a month to return to the mountain, how could the girl stand it!
Qiao Lan stuffed a purse into the third steward and said: "It's hard to be a housekeeper, she can't speak with Hua Bud, and please don't worry about her." "Give these people some sweetness, and they won't say bad things about their own girls, and if they don't give sweetness, they don't know what they will say.
Cai Lan looked at the things piled up in half the room, her face was very ugly, and she said angrily: "Aren't these things more attractive to mice?" How will this rat sleep when it comes? "Rice, grain, oil, and other things are the most attractive to mice.
Cai Qing whispered: "Then we don't open the door here during the day on weekdays, and we have to close the door when we go out at night, so that the mice can't come in." ”
Cai Lan said hatefully: "The third girl is really showy enough, the Ma family hasn't sent anything over, so they have prepared a place, who knows if it will be delivered?" ”
Cai Qing glanced at Cai Lan and said: "Don't say it's in the mountains, even in Lianfu, the Ma family also sends things to the three girls every once in a while, do you think they will send things over?" ”
Cai Lan was silent, and said after a long time: "It would be nice if our girl also had such an uncle." Although she didn't like the domineering of the three girls, she really felt that the Ma family was good to the three girls.
Cai Qing shook his head and said, "What do you want to do with these things?" ”
Yueyao did her homework and saw that she had made six dishes for dinner, which was very hearty. Yue Yao didn't agree much, and said, "Forget it this time, save some use next time." We used it a lot, and we didn't send things in time, and there was no food to eat at that time. "There are not many things sent by the government, there are a lot of vegetables, there are also a lot of dried vegetables, pickled radish, beans, beans and so on.
Yueyao didn't care, the days on the mountain were like this, and the food was very vegetarian. But in the past few days, Yueying can't stand it. Although she is also a vegetarian in the mansion, she is not a vegetable with cabbage and turnips, and she eats it so much that her face is a vegetable. It's just this matter, she can't be angry at Yueyao, because all this has nothing to do with Yueyao.
This day is a terrible day for Cai Qing, not to mention washing rice, cooking, picking vegetables, lighting fires, cleaning the yard, and washing clothes, her white jade hands have changed color in just one day.
Cai Lan was already full of resentment, and after Hua Bud asked her to help empty the toilet, she finally broke out and yelled: "The toilet also wants me to pour it, you have no hands and feet?" I did everything with Cai Qing, what did you do? "Cai Lan automatically ignored the matter of chopping wood with flower buds and Qiaolan.
Qiao Lan pinched the flower bud: "We will pour the toilet ourselves." "This dead woman really adds fuel to the fire, but the initiator Bud is too happy.
Qiao Lan pulled the flower bud outside and said, "Do you think that you don't make trouble for the girl, you are uncomfortable!" Although Hua Bud's mouth was a little sharper in the mansion, she knew how to measure, but now on this mountain, she didn't have any sense of proportion.
Hua Bud said unhappily: "I can't get used to her being a **." ”
Qiao Lan said with a serious face: "If you want to train her, you have to be trained by the big girl, is it your turn?" Hua Bud, the girl values you, so you can't make trouble for the girl. Qiaolan felt that Hua Bud was relatively honest in Lianfu, but she couldn't control her temperament when she got to the mountain.
has been with Qiao Lan for so long, and she also knows that Qiao Lan is good to her. She doesn't seem to be so restrained in the mansion these days.
It took Yueying three days to copy the two scriptures, not that Yueying was lazy, but that she was slow in writing and not concentrating; Moreover, there is a big aftermath of copying scriptures, and the hand grinds out blood blisters, and it hurts when you touch it.
In the afternoon, Cai Lan swept the fallen leaves in the yard, and when she heard the sound of chanting scriptures in the house, Cai Lan took a deep breath to calm herself. These three days are like a year for Lan Cai. In fact, there are not many things to do in blue picking, washing rice, cooking rice, picking vegetables, etc. are all light and economical work; The clothes they washed were also their own, not to mention the buds, they didn't let her wash Yueyao's clothes, and the buds were just deliberately making it difficult to pick the blue that day, and they didn't really want her to empty the toilet; And these jobs are also shared by Cai Qing. But these tedious things are really hell for the comfortable and enjoyable blue picking. She wanted to cry every day when she looked at her hands, and she was really worried that if she continued like this, her hands would be wasted. She has carefully maintained this hand for more than ten years, how can she be willing if it is destroyed here?
Cai Lan wants to go back, desperately wants to go back. There are only endless chores to do every day; I still have to listen to the three girls chanting the scriptures, and if she continues like this, she will go crazy.
Cai Lan also learned to be obedient, and she didn't dare to say bad things about Yueyao in front of Yueying, because it was useless to say it, and the girl wouldn't listen to it. Cai Lan knew that if she said how bitter she was, the girl would not help her, so Cai Lan adopted a strategy.
Seeing that Yueying was still in front of the desk, Cai Lan stepped forward and said, "Girl, girl can't copy anymore, if you copy it again, your hand will be scarred." Girl, Wang Huanhuan once said that her daughter's hands are very precious. If you are cocooned, the people of the Yao family will still think that you are not valued by the old lady and will do heavy work at home every day. ”
Yueying is actually worried in her heart, but she has been enduring it for the past two days. This will listen to Cai Lan's words, and finally put down the pen and go to Yueyao's house.
Yue Yao was copying scriptures at this time.
Yueying looked at the papers stacked next to her, and asked in surprise, "Sister, did you copy all this?" "Probably not, looking at the paper on the ground is several times more than her.
Yue Yao was not pretentious, and nodded immediately: "Well, I have finished copying four books, and I will finish copying the fifth book as soon as I hurry up." How much did my sister copy? ”
Yueying asked in disbelief, "My sister actually only has one copy left?" Third sister, these scriptures are nothing else, there must not be a single typo, and you can't be sloppy. Yueying decided that Yueyao was indiscriminately filling the numbers.
Not to mention the buds, even Qiaolan listened very loudly: "Big girl, our girl couldn't be more pious." ”
Yueying was also too surprised, so she didn't talk through her brain.
Yue Yao said lightly: "If the eldest sister doesn't believe it, you can see it for yourself and see if I'm perfunctory." The scriptures she copied didn't even have anything to say to the most critical sister-in-law in the nunnery.
Because the paper is relatively thin, Yueyao always puts it on the ground after copying it and waits for it to dry, and then sews it up with a needle and thread after the paper is dry. Hua Bud handed the one sewn by Yue Yao to Yue Ying and said, "Big girl, this is what our girl copied." ”
Where would Yueying really go to check, just said it too quickly, and said weakly: "Third sister, I just finished copying the second book." ”
Yue Yao listened to Yue Ying's words, her voice faded, and she said, "Eldest sister can give me two copies, I can handle it." "I gave two more than two copies, which is enough for the month.
After Yueying left, Yueyao asked Hao's mother, "What kind of person do you think the eldest sister is?" ”
Hao's mother shook her head and said, "Girl, you can maintain your relationship with the eldest girl, and you can't have a deep friendship." Hao's mother thinks that Yueying is the kind of person who is very selfish and only thinks about herself, and this kind of person is unreliable. It's just that Hao's mother is not good at directly evaluating the master, she is not a flower bud, and she speaks so directly.
Yue Yao thought for a while and asked a question that she had been thinking about for a long time: "Mother Hao, do you think the eldest sister and Lu Yan are similar people?" ”
Lu Yan is a little cautious about living in Mafu, always trying to please people, but neither Cheng's, Ma Linlin, nor her eldest cousin-in-law like her. Yue Yao believes that Lu Yan is just an ignorant person, but he is not a bad-hearted person, but this kind of person is not likable.
For Yueying, Yueyao really doesn't know how to evaluate the price? She did Yueying such a big favor, and she didn't expect to get something in return, but she just hoped that Yueying wouldn't give her any more problems in the future. didn't expect Yueying to give her problems in a blink of an eye, and when she arrived at the mountain, she gave her problems one after another. A maid dared to shout in front of her with her nose and face, she was still only weak next to her, whether she was really weak or pretended, Yueyao was not interested in paying attention. But as we can see from today's events, the measure of the waxing moon is very small.
Yueyao was holding back a fire in her heart, and it was difficult to say it in front of Hua Bud and Qiaolan, but she felt that there was no obstacle to Hao's mother, and said: "I used to think that the eldest sister was just a good identity, but even later, I also thought that Aunt Chen instigated and persecuted her. But I just found out that the eldest sister doesn't seem to allow others to be better than her. That day, my cousin-in-law said to her that she should be round on the outside and square on the inside, but she was square inside and out, which was very inappropriate. She tried to change, wanted to be friends with Yueying, but today's incident made her decide that Yueying was really not a person worth befriending.
Hao's mother didn't give more comments on this, and said, "Girl, in fact, you don't have to think too much. Whether it is the Lu family's cousin or the eldest girl, they have nothing to do with the girl. It's okay to get along with the big girl. "It's not a sister-in-law, as long as you don't make a fuss and get by.
Yueyao's lips squirmed, but she didn't speak. It is not so much irrelevant, but rather that befriending them is not only not beneficial, but has many disadvantages, or at least adds a lot of trouble. She was too busy to take care of herself, and where could she cause trouble.
Yueyao looked at Hao's mother and said, "Then tell me what kind of people the second sister and the fourth sister are?" In fact, she wants to hear Hao's mother evaluate the four girls, but it would be inappropriate to ask directly, which would make Hao's mother suspicious.
Hao's mother thought for a while and said: "The second girl is also very smart, but because her concubine is a little arrogant, she is still a little out of character; But after being taught by Wang Huanhuan privately for so long, she also became mellow. The fourth girl used to look at the wooden shackles, but in fact, she actually had her own abacus in her heart; But after this catastrophe, the four girls were shrewd and exposed, but they fell behind. Girls, whether they are the second girls or the fourth girls, the girls can only maintain their relationship with them. The second girl will not talk about it, the eldest lady's daughter-in-law; The biological mother of the fourth girl, Aunt Su is the eldest lady's diehard. The three girls did a good job in the mansion. "Hao's mother's meaning is obvious, even the three girls in the house can't have deep friendship, they can only maintain the affection on their faces, and they don't break their mouths.
Yueying's pen hand hurt for a while, and she was persuaded by Cai Lan to write two lines of words. If you copy it, there will be a scar on your hand, how precious is the hand of the daughter of the boudoir, Yueyao can not care about her, but she can't not care. She can't let her hands get scars or calluses no matter what, otherwise she will definitely be laughed at when she goes out to socialize in the future. But if she didn't copy her, she was worried, Yueying was very annoyed, she knew that she didn't care about face, and she should have given all the scriptures to her third sister just now. To die a real life, you have to live with face and suffer sin.
Cai Lan saw Yueying's concerns, and said: "Girl, don't worry, I will deliberately say in front of the buds that your hands are blistering and you can't hold the pen." I think it's hard to say anything if I can't finish copying it tomorrow. ”
The yard is only the size of a palm, and you can know it when you turn around in a circle. Cai Lan muttered that Yueying's hands were all blood blisters and couldn't hold the pen, and it was difficult for Hua Bud and Qiao Lan to listen to it even if they didn't want to.
got the double admonition of Hao's mother and Qiaolan, but she didn't say anything in person. But when he returned to the house, he was disdainful, and said, "The eldest girl's hands are valuable, but our girl's hands are not valuable?" Hua Bud didn't want her girl to work so hard, but unfortunately her own girl didn't listen to persuasion, what to do, she didn't take what she said to heart at all, and now the girl's hands are thin cocoons.
The Ma family didn't come over until the fifth day. The speed of the Ma family is not as fast as that of the Lian family, but there are a lot of things. There are many varieties of things sent by Mafu, in addition to various staple foods such as rice, flour, japonica rice, barley, etc., there are other kinds of dishes, such as mushrooms, fungus, eggplant, red dates, peanuts and other dry goods; There are also various legumes such as mung beans, red beans, and black beans; There are also vegetables that are easy to store, such as pumpkin and winter melon.
In addition to this, there is also a cage left behind for these things, and I don't know what the cage is for the time being. The things sent by the Ma family are very thoughtful, and even the silver frost charcoal that was not sent by the Ma family was sent, and it is still four baskets. These stuff filled two big carts.
This time, not only the second housekeeper of the Ma family sent the things over, but also Ruolan's personal maid Caiyun also followed.
Caiyun had six cages carried in. In the first cage are packets of medicinal herbs, which are used in case of a headache and brain fever in the mountains, and the effect on it is clearly written. The second cage is also a pack, and Caiyun didn't explain to Yueyao one by one: "Girl, all you put here are some supplements, the girl is suffering in the mountains, but she can't burn her body." ”
Yue Yao was startled when she saw the bags of bird's nest, sea cucumbers, cordyceps, and snow clams, these things were too valuable, and said, "My cousin-in-law is pregnant now, and it is time to take a good supplement." Where can I eat such a good thing? You hurry up and bring it back. ”
Caiyun smiled and said, "The young lady knows that the girl doesn't want to ask for it. The young lady asked me to bring a message to the girl, she couldn't finish these supplements, so the girl should take it as a burden to our young lady. "For the first child, even if the mother says that they are girls, the master and the eldest young master are also very attentive, and there are only a lot of supplements; In addition, the Guogong Mansion and the Zhuang Mansion also sent a lot of nourishing things.
Yueyao was a little worried when she heard this, and said, "Caiyun, you told your cousin that this pregnant child is to be made up; But don't eat too much, eat too much, and it will not be easy for the child to give birth when the child is older. "Childbirth is a ghost gate, how many women just don't have this common sense and desperately make up for it, but they overdo it, making it too difficult for the fetus to give birth. What she didn't want to change was back to the way it was.
Caiyun was stunned for ten seconds and asked, "Where did the girl know that?" Caiyun also knew that she had heard about it from the doctor and her mother, but where did the three girls and the girls in the boudoir know this.
Yueyao's face turned red, and she said in a daze: "I saw it from a book, and I remembered it right now." "It's really a flaw.
Caiyun didn't think much about it, but moved Yueyao's affection for Zhuang Ruolan, and said: "Don't worry, the doctor told a few mothers that it is not appropriate to take too much supplements, and let the girl walk around the yard more every day." Caiyun has only recently realized the benefits of her own girl's choice. The girl is pregnant, except for Xiao Ma's, who is disturbing, everything else is smooth. Whoever conceives a child in the Guogong Mansion is not a disaster, and it is bad to have a child to block those dark arrows, and there are often disgusting things like climbing the bed. In Mafu, everything was calm and quiet, nothing happened.
Six cages, one box of medicinal herbs, one box of supplements, two boxes of snow-white paper, and two boxes of daily necessities, such as candles and other things, are all used by Yueyao.
Yue Yao was very moved when she saw it, these things were carefully prepared, and she would never have thought so well without her intentions. Yue Yao asked Caiyun Ma Chengteng about the situation, and knew that everyone was fine, so she didn't ask any more. I went back to the study and wrote a letter, and expressed my gratitude to Zhuang Ruolan in the letter, which must be the credit of my cousin-in-law, where can the two big men such a big man be so careful.
Caiyun looked at the paper full of words on the ground, and Caiyun was surprised: "Are these all scriptures copied by the girl?" ”
Yueyao nodded and said, "Hmm." ”
Caiyun looked at the piece of paper on the table that had not yet dried, the font was beautiful, and the words were neat. Looking at Yue Yao, who had lost a lot of weight, her voice became very soft, and she said, "The young lady said that if there is anything missing here, tell me, and if I don't come next time, I will tell the steward." The girl must not be bitter about herself, otherwise the master and the young master and the young lady will be distressed. ”
Yue Yao smiled heartily and said, "I'll take care of myself." ”
On the way down the mountain, Caiyun said to her in a muttering voice, "Miss Caiyun, I heard from the mother of the housekeeper beside the cousin that since she arrived at the temple, she has been doing her homework every morning and evening with the sound of the temple bell, and the rest of the time she is copying scriptures. If this is true, the cousin is really rare. ”
Caiyun nodded in response, "It's rare." "It's not just about patience, it's about perseverance and perseverance. It's just that Caiyun doesn't know how long Yueyao can last.
Hua Bud showed the registered booklet to Yue Yao and said, "Girl, the things sent by my uncle's family are not only varied, but also high-quality and good. ”
Yue Yao looked at the cage placed in the room and instructed, "Don't write these things down." "It doesn't matter if everyone uses what they eat, but there is no need to take out these tonic herbs and share them with others.
The buds naturally applauded.
Cai Lan watched the people of Ma Fu move things to the opposite room one by one, and I always heard that Ma Daren doted on the three girls, and sent things every three or five times, but now I know that I really love the three girls, and it is a package and a cage, there are so many.
