Chapter 157: Cruel Words
There were twenty or thirty people up and down, and it took half a day just to explain their errands. Those people didn't understand Dou Miaojing's reality for a while, and they were busy leaving her behind to prepare for lunch. In any case, it's always right to give people up first.
As soon as the people dispersed, the mother-in-law who came with her kindly reminded: "Second Miss, those people don't have a real word in their mouths, what do you want to listen to?" It's better to clean up and see who is not good and send things away. ”
Dou Miaojing calmly served the tea, took a sip and put it down. Said: "There is a word called making the best use of things, keeping them for their own use, anyway, there is no shortage of such people anywhere in this world." ”
She originally knew it in her heart, and what she heard from Aunt Mei's nurse was enough. The reason why they asked them to say it again was to take a good look at who was a human and who was a ghost in this Zhuangzi, so that they could plan for the future. Now this question makes her a little worried, there are really a lot of little ghosts in Zhuangzi.
Just as he was suddenly frowning, someone was sneakily hiding outside the door. The mother-in-law next to him scolded: "What are you hiding there for?" ”
Dou Miaojing's eyebrows raised slightly, and she saw that it was this steward hiding in the dark. He smiled and said, "Come in." ”
"Did you hear that? Second Miss let you in! The mother-in-law repeated Dou Miaojing's words in an accentuated tone.
I saw the people outside the door rushing into the house one by one, and before she could see her face clearly, she had already fallen to her knees. Trembling with his body bent down, he said, "Slave slave slave maid has something to tell the second lady." ”
"What's the matter?" Dou Miaojing asked slowly.
The people below frowned, and spoke even more incoherently: "Slave maid...... Miss Fang Cai didn't seem to ask the slave maid. The slave maid wanted to tell the second lady that which of them was talking nonsense with his eyes open, and he didn't do a good job at all......" She said as she secretly aimed her eyes at Dou Miaojing. Although his body trembled terribly. But it seems that people are not afraid at all, but angry.
Dou Miaojing hates people the most to play tricks behind his back, and this was the case with the Chen family in his previous life.
"Get up." She said lightly, her tone cold and cold.
The steward was stunned, his body stopped shaking for a while, he raised his head in surprise, and asked, "Miss...... The slave and maid are still kneeling and talking, right? ”
"I'll wake you up." Dou Miaojing's voice suddenly became stern.
The steward at the end of his voice. Jump up immediately. Bow your head and stand in front of Dou Miaojing.
Dou Miaojing said coolly: "What do you want to say, I don't want to know, because of what you want to say." I know. You're going to come to me, you're a smart man, think about why I don't ask you. You just said that those people are talking nonsense with their eyes open. Didn't do it badly? In your opinion, whose fault is it? ”
The steward's heart "chuckled". Horror flashed through her eyes.
Dou Miaojing got up, took a few steps closer to her, and continued expressionlessly: "If you can't even restrain a few servants, what's the use of our Dou family hiring such a steward?" The money saved. It's better to reward those obedient ones. You know what I mean? ”
The steward's "puff" knelt down and kowtowed again and again: "Slaves and maids can save slaves and maids." ”
"I hope you really save it, and don't dig your own grave next time." Dou Miaojing said. Without looking at her, he walked away. Left another sentence. said, "Tell them to be less courteous, I'm gone, no need to eat." ”
The servant woman behind her hurried to follow, and the room was quiet for a long time, and only kneeling the steward. Unlike just now, her body was trembling at the moment, really because she was afraid.
Dou Miaojing got back into the carriage and let out a long breath. After this breath was revealed, my heart was a little lighter. With a smile, he let the carriage go, and began to ponder the matter of returning to the farmhouse. She left Zhou Yunshang there, why didn't this girl come to report it? Hasn't Gu Xing come back yet? If she hasn't come back yet, I'm afraid she's going back to the city too.
Sure enough, when I arrived at the Guitian House and asked, Gu Xing really hadn't come back yet. Dou Miaojing couldn't help but feel a little stupid, and was going to go home.
Drizzle was very considerate, knowing that she was unwilling, so she wrote a note and stuffed it to her, and whispered: "It is the address of the pen and ink shop, and it was originally the property of the young lady's family, but the slave maid is afraid that in your family's property, not everyone may remember it." If you look for it according to this address, even if you can't find our master, you can also ask the shopkeeper there. ”
Dou Miaojing's heart suddenly brightened, and she accepted the note with a smile, and said, "What should I take to thank you?" Otherwise, if you tell me what else is missing, I'll get it for you!" ”
Where did Drizzle dare to kick his nose in the face, and said with a smile: "The slave doesn't want anything, but seeing that you are in a hurry, I won't leave you to eat." While the sun is not cold at noon, you should hurry back to the city. ”
Dou Miaojing was not polite, said goodbye to the drizzle and wind, and took the carriage back to the city. As soon as I entered the city, my stomach began to scream, and I was afraid that I would not be able to get out when I got home, so I simply went to the restaurant to eat boldly, and asked Zhou Yunshang to order a private room, and she sat there to eat and drink.
The mother-in-law who brought it out couldn't help laughing: "Why is Miss so restrained again?" Is dine-in bad? ”
Dou Miaojing's face flushed slightly: "I'm embarrassed." "After all, after so many years of Miss Jiao's life, I am still not used to being exposed to people all of a sudden.
And those two mothers-in-law were with Mrs. Pei in their early years, and they had to follow Dou Pei with Mrs. Pei to go north and south, what is unusual? Hearing that Dou Miaojing was still ashamed to see people, he smiled and relieved: "You are generous, and the people next to you naturally dare not look down on you." Those who are engaged in business and trade, how can they pick the hour and place, eat dry food on the spot when they are hungry, and settle down in the ruined temple when they are sleepy. As long as An An does business alive, they don't care about face. However, there is a way that there is no business, no treachery, no treachery, no business, and it is also a good thing for you to keep your heart. ”
Dou Miaojing knows that she is really a little bit of a family in your regard, and she should show a mature and stable appearance.
Another mother-in-law saw that she was still young and it was not easy to do this, so she specially sent a step to her and said, "You can't become fat in one breath, don't worry, you have to take your time in this matter." The second master often said that if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, and the young lady is so smart, she must understand the truth of this sentence. ”
Dou Miaojing understood and was very grateful to the two. So he pouted and said, "Mama Liu is so bad, she knows that I am fat, and she still uses this as an example." ”
Mama Liu smiled knowingly, thinking that it was no wonder that the second master was willing to give the Zhuangzi to the second miss, and the second miss was really a transparent person.
But in fact, Dou Miaojing has been exhausted for a while and has been sick, and the whole person has lost weight several times. The face used to be round, but now the chin is almost pointed. (To be continued)
