130 lives are like paper
After handing over the Li family to Ergege, Li Wei also asked the jade bottle to go back and see it twice halfway, and she was relieved to hear that Ergege and her uncles were very affectionate.
It's not so easy on her side. Although there were four seats, and there were several tables in each place, and there were both plays and wine, except for the place where the girls could hear the joyful laughter, the others were a little sparse.
The stage sang lively, but there were only a few echoes from the audience.
Li Wei is still the side of the Fujin table, the nine Fujin to the fourteenth Fujin table is occasionally going over to take a turn, and ask if there is any need? Seeing that there is less wine and not enough food, more food is served.
Side Fujin's side is a small round table, because there are only four people counting Li Wei. From the Eight Blessings to the Fourteenth Blessings, there are no side blessings in the house. However, I heard that Guo Luo Luo on the Tenth Master's Mansion is very favored, and she is currently full of children in the Tenth Master's Mansion.
This matter was told to her by Tianbian Fujin of the Third Master's Mansion, and she also whispered: "The Tenth Master wants to wait for the child to be older, and she will be able to raise the pox before asking her to be sealed." I think it's a matter of time or time. ”
Li Wei was curious: "Where did you know that?" "Is the third master familiar with the tenth master? I haven't heard the fourth master mention it.
Tian sighed meaninglessly and said, "Who is like you who doesn't go out of the mansion every day, and only cares about having children?" ”
Cut! Li Wei also said politely: "Jealous? ”
Tian didn't say a word for a long time, and then whispered: "Yes...... It's all like you......"
The two have also dealt with each other, and when people are happy, they are easy to pity others, Li Wei is sympathetic now, and pulled Tian aside to the small corner house and said that it was sobering, and asked someone to serve hot tea to comfort her.
Tian also held back his words, held the tea and said without waiting for Li Wei to comfort him for a few more words: "You also know that our lord's temperament is a habitual and pity for his daughter, and the mother doesn't discipline him much, not to mention what happened to a few people in a Baylor Mansion?" ”
Speaking of which, the third master has intermittently taken several people into the mansion in recent years, and the Tian family has fallen out of favor.
Li Wei heard a cold sweat on her body and said, "Are they all selected?" "I haven't heard of it. In fact, there are a number of show girls every year, and anyone can tell who they are. It's all called Aixin Jueluo's family divided, and the rest of the clansmen won't marry? Not only are the show girls with good family backgrounds in demand, but there are generally no ones left who can choose zuihou.
Tian sighed: "Where! They are all children of the slave family! ”
Li Wei reacted at this time, there must be slaves under the third master, unlike the fourth master, the children sent in by the servants under the third master are not haha beads for the little brothers, but as concubines for the third master.
The two drank a bowl of tea in the corner house and went back, and it was not beautiful to leave the table for a long time.
The rest of the time, Li Wei was staying.
Tian's fall from grace is not an exception, in the early years in the elder brother's office, Wubeiler's favor of the side of Fujin was very famous, but now Liu Jia's family in Wubeile Mansion is no longer good, Guerjia heard that it is also avoiding people's edge, and the new one is Ma's, although Wubeile has no intention of asking for her seal, but Guerjia's face has long been tired.
But the Nara clan in the house of the Seven Belles was quite safe.
Thinking like this, Li Wei looked at the Nara clan sitting on the side as if she had an extra comrade-in-arms. Many natives are favored with her, which can always give her more confidence. As if the indigenous could do it, she certainly could do the same.
Seeing her eyes, Nara brought her a plate of fried glutinous rice and red bean cake in front of her, smiling and signaling 'eat'.
Li Wei: "......" Nara really hasn't changed at all.
However, with a golden crispy skin, white and tender glutinous rice and a thick layer of red bean paste, it looks really good, she took a piece from the goodness, it is really the craftsmanship of Eunuch Liu, the red bean paste is so sweet and fragrant!
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the banquet finally dispersed. The fourth master in front of him came to speak, and then he withdrew from the show. All the masters and masters have to rest again, and Fu Jin took people back to the house to rest and drink tea, and gave the provinces a chance to prepare carriages.
Li Wei accompanies people to go to convenience if they want to, and arrange for those who want to refresh.
Then prepare the gifts for people to take back, and send them out of the house one by one, and today is over.
Seeing off the thirteenth and fourteenth Fujin of Zuihou, Li Wei's calves returned to the main courtyard as if they had been filled with lead to report to Fujin.
Fu Jin saw her on the east side and said, "You have worked hard these days, go back and rest." ”
Li Weifu said: "Yes." "If you don't have a word of nonsense, you have to retire.
How did Fu Jin take out a few stickers and handed them to her: "Before the gold festival, many people will come to visit the mansion, and you will also come out to meet at that time." Li Wei hesitated a little when she took the post. Since the last time the Eight Blessings and the Thirteen Blessings came to call her, she felt a little strange. But at this time, he said in front of Fujin, "I will reply to you after asking the fourth master", which means that he was slapped in the face.
After thinking about it, she had no choice but to go first, thinking that if she asked the fourth master if she had a little problem, she would report the illness at that time.
When he left the main courtyard, he also took a lot of first birthday gifts for the fourth elder brother. This was all sent by Fujin in various prefectures, and it was naturally handed over to Fujin. Li Wei took a cursory look, but the gifts were not light.
When she returned to the East Courtyard, she saw Li Cang and Li Sheng, she was not tired, and she couldn't help but smile and said, "Wait for me for a while, I'll come out and talk to you after I've washed up." ”
One is that Li Wenbi may be promoted this year, so he must say hello to his family first. The second is to ask a few nephews and nieces if they need anything. For example, her eldest brother Li Yi and Li Cang each have a daughter, and although the two nieces are only five or six years old this year, if they go to the draft, she can help the family now.
We can't let our children lose at the starting line.
The nephews are just a student and a martial artist, which is much easier than the girls, but I still ask if she can help the family now. The right not to expire.
To say something frustrating: Who knows how long the fourth master can spoil her?
Every time she thinks of this, Li Wei will make up for the female supporting role abandoned by the male protagonist in Qiong Yao's drama, like Qing'er in Huanzhu, and Ruping in deep love. Then her heart began to twitch, and her tear ducts began to reach. If there is a day, she will definitely not be so generous, okay? What does it mean to wish you happiness? It's all about wishing you to eat Xiang!
If you dare to change your mind, you will definitely hate you to the bone!
Things are people, and they don't have to do anything, and tears flow first.
The fourth master copied a lot of Li Qingzhao's words for her, and she always held and felt nostalgic for herself, and once he saw it, but she was taken away. He laughed and cried that she was fine, and then put Baifu in her arms and told her to hold the dog and play. The copied words were also put back in the front yard study and not given to her.
After changing her clothes and washing off the fat powder, Er Gege took her cousins to her house to play, Li Wei asked the nurse to bring the fourth elder brother to show them, and wanted to ask someone to go to the front to ask Hongyu and the third elder brother if they could come over and meet the uncles.
Li Cang stopped and said, "Don't be in a hurry, it's time for us to leave." ”
It's already five o'clock and almost six o'clock, and the fourth master may come over for dinner. Li Wei couldn't stay with them for a long time, and when she heard this, she said, "Then I'll have to wait for the next time." ”
Because it is unfortunate that Honghui is still in the palace today, Honghui will definitely be called by the fourth master to accompany the guests, maybe he will ask those uncles to pour wine, the third elder brother was originally curious, and it is estimated that he also took the opportunity to drink two glasses.
She said about Li Wenbi and the children, Li Cang and Li Sheng glanced at each other and said, "Let's go back and write a letter to Ama Eniang to discuss this matter." ”
Li Wei said: "Time is enough, your second girl is only five years old, let's not worry." I tell you, and I also let you plan ahead. ”
Li Cang nodded and asked Tong Jiashi and Li Jiashi to go out to find the child. Seeing this, Li Wei also asked the jade bottle and others to go down.
"What's wrong?" She asked.
Li Cang said: "This is what our uncle asked me to tell you: I'm afraid there will be something in the palace in the past two days." They brought out many dead people from the palace, and some of them were collected by families, and the whole family was locked up. Later, no one dared to come to collect it, so they all filled in the dead man's pit outside the city. ”
Li Wei was so frightened that her heart was beating fast. She has never heard such a terrible thing in all these years of entering the mansion, and the most terrifying thing is that Zhao Quanbao asked the fourth master to reward the board.
Li Cang saw that her face was pale and he didn't dare to speak, and behind him Li Sheng complained to him: "You won't slow down?" Look, it scares our sister! Sister, it's okay, you swallow two mouthfuls of saliva! ”
Li Wei was not afraid of such a mess, glared at him and said, "You coax me as your daughter." ”
"Alright, I got it. Don't let this go out. She instructed her two younger brothers.
Waiting for Li Cang and Li Sheng to say goodbye from the mansion with their families and a cart of gifts, and walking on the road, Li Sheng whispered to Li Cang: "I didn't expect to enter the mansion for a few years, but I raised my sister's courage small." Before that's what happened, his face turned white...... She's not as good as my daughter......"
Li Cang kicked the younger brother unceremoniously: "What do you know? What we listen to is lively, and what our sister listens to is things. Don't compare your brain to our sister! ”
In the east courtyard, the fourth master was lying on the couch with Li Wei in his arms.
She slapped him and said, "It sounds really scary, as soon as he says it, I seem to be able to see people carrying people out of the palace gate, one by one covered with quilts and straw mats...... "As she spoke, her body trembled again.
The fourth master patted her on the back and sighed, "What else do you know if you're afraid?" Forget about it. ”
Li Wei hugged his hand and said sincerely: "Master, I'm afraid ......"
Things in the palace are too close to them.
"You say, will it be involved in our house?" She asked worriedly, "It's time to enter the palace in two days." ”
October 13 is the Gold Festival.
The fourth master said: "Since this is the case, you should sue the illness this time, just say that the confinement was not well raised, and Erhe was also sick once, saying that it was a wind, and you were tired of taking care of her." ”
It's good not to enter the palace!
Li Wei was really not happy to go into the palace to be a slave for a day, so she looked up and asked with both apprehension and anticipation: "Can it really be done?" ”
The fourth master said gently: "Why not? Just say it's okay. ”
Seeing that Su Su finally showed joy, he was also in good spirits. He was also happy in his heart, and he felt much better when he hugged the fourth elder brother to see their mother and son.
This time the fourth elder brother is full moon, and there are not many people coming in front. The king of Zhijun didn't come, and the third elder brother didn't arrive at that time, but he called Hongxi to come, but today he only didn't get a courtesy. The third brother came and said goodbye with two glasses of wine, and the fifth and seventh also left after the banquet.
The eighth child accompanied him from beginning to end, and kept sitting and talking with Prince Yu Baotai, making the fourth master look upset. It's better not to come here.
Lao Jiu and Lao Shi slipped away after a few drinks. Twelve also said goodbye with two cups, and Thirteen and Fourteen also accompanied Zuihou, but Thirteen still looked sick, and sat with Fourteen as if he was ten years older than him.
Fourteen loves to toss too much, looking for people to fight around. Lao Ba and Bao Tai said it right, he also leaned over and talked for a long time, but the fourth master couldn't find an excuse to call him out, and he was finished on another table.
What really pleased the fourth master was that the servants under the door who should have come came, and there were many people who came with white and red, and the people were also lively. It can be seen that he still has some hope, although he has been estranged from the two flags these days, they still remember him as the master.
For the rest, the house of Ulanara came, and so did the family of Uya. Tong Jia's Cheng'en Mansion didn't come to anyone, but the fourth master didn't want to call the people from the Cheng'en Mansion to come, so it was just right that he didn't come.
The rest is not worth mentioning. I received a lot of gifts, but there were only a few important people. In general, there are still not many people.
He had already heard about the palace. The emperor's first edict when he returned to the palace was very strange, that is, the palace was not allowed to recognize relatives and marry vegetable households. The Qing Dynasty entered the Forbidden City, and the emperor's concubines and princesses in the palace died, and they ran away, but the palace maids and eunuchs did not suffer much crime, and those who survived the war and were willing to stay, were found to have stayed.
Although it has been six or seven or ten years, the old palace maid and the old eunuch at that time may still be alive for a long time.
But if the emperor speaks, the palace masters will not do anything against the emperor, with them taking the lead, not to mention the rest of the concubines and masters.
The one carried out from the palace gate is still a haode, at least there are names, surnames and corpses. There are still many missing, and no one can be found, who knows if it was a in a remote palace? It is estimated that there will be no less black hands who take advantage of the opportunity.
The fourth master sighed in his heart. Even if Su Su didn't mention it, he didn't want to let her enter the palace this year. It's not just the Gold Festival, it's best not to go in for the New Year. She is timid, innocent, and has been nightmarish, what if she goes in and bumps into something unclean, what should she do if she calls him?
In front of him, Su Su was teaching the fourth elder brother to call Eniang, and the fourth elder brother kept shouting with his mouth open.
Li Wei felt a little cold about the fourth master, and pointed at him and called the fourth elder brother: "Look who is this?" ”
The fourth elder brother shouted very clearly at this time: "Amma! ”
The fourth master couldn't help laughing, looking at Su Su again, he looked unhappy, and gently pressed a finger on the door of the fourth elder brother's brain: "Call Ama so good, call Eniang always call Cheng E, when you are older, I will raise a goose in the yard, and tell you to play with the goose every day!" ”
The fourth elder brother haha was happy, and rushed to Li Wei: "Forehead! ”
Qianqing Palace, promised to live in the small courtyard.
All the rooms were closed. The eldest aunt looked at the people from room to room, made sure they were all there, and instructed: "You are not allowed to run around recently, do you know?" ”
Xiu promised and hurriedly said: "We listen to the eldest aunt and will never run around." ”
The eldest aunt swept over the group of restless little girls, and then warned: "Run out and do something, don't blame your aunt for not saving you then." ”
After saying that, she went out, and Shuang promised to hesitate, and went up: "Auntie, please stay." ”
The eldest aunt sighed secretly, turned around and said, "My good shuang'er, what's the matter with you?" ”
Shuang promised and begged: "Auntie, what's wrong with Mei'er?" ”
The eldest aunt had already guessed in her heart, and she was also uneasy, and when she heard the words, she agreed to the side: "But what have you heard?" ”
Shuang promised to shake his head and said, "No, I just haven't seen my eyebrows for a few days." Her house was also locked......"
The eldest aunt looked at her and said that Zhou Mei was a white-eyed wolf...... Is it really so kind to promise a double promise?
She said perfunctorily: "You shouldn't care about these things, go back and rest." ”
After two days, Liang Jiugong brought someone to inquire, opened Zhou Mei's room and turned it upside down, and asked the eldest aunt again.
The eldest aunt told her about a little eunuch that Zhou Mei had asked her: "She said that she was her godbrother." ”
Liang Jiugong said coldly: "Yo, so that's the case?" He stared at the eldest aunt with cold eyes, "Auntie, long live the Lord handed over this group of promises to you, just to see that you are a stable person, how can such a thing still come out under your nose?" ”
In the past, the palace couldn't help but admit that he was a god.
However, the eldest aunt knew that this was not the time to quibble, so she knelt down and said, "It's all a slave dereliction of duty." ”
Liang Jiugong waved his hand: "Take it away." ”
After the eldest aunt was taken away, she asked out of Yuhua Pavilion. After that, he found Zhou Mei, who had been dead for several days, in the well of Yuhua Pavilion.
Shuang promised to be questioned several times, and finally released after nothing. The eldest aunt has been transferred, and someone else will take care of them again. Zhou Mei's house has been searched several times, and all the silver bodies are gone, and the rest of the things, the new grandmother asked them to take them away with Zhou Mei.
"Just keep a thought, it's like a sister over the years." Mama said.
The rest of the bedding, clothes and other things were all sent out to Zhou Mei's family.
Shuang promised to be in the house, and heard that the house outside was messy, and the old furniture had to be moved out and replaced with new ones. lest you be discouraged.
The houses don't like to go to the house now. They said that Zhou Mei and the godbrother were a fake couple, and the emperor was old, so Zhou Mei was not happy to serve the emperor, so he secretly recognized a godbrother. The two often have private meetings behind Yuhua Pavilion.
also said that the emperor was furious about this, and Zhou Mei's godbrother confessed to her, and Zhou Mei committed suicide.
Shuang promised to listen to the quiet outside, and the person who moved the furniture left. She touched an old pillow on the bed, and a pair of mandarin ducks in the blue waves were embroidered with slightly rough needlework.
This was given to her by Zhou Mei.
Zhou Mei is not stupid, she is getting worse and worse day by day after eating the calming pill, and she will naturally wonder if she is causing harm. But she didn't know who wanted to harm her, so she had to hide it while trying to serve the emperor, hoping that with her favor, she could avoid danger.
She didn't say anything, only quietly told Shuang yes.
Shuang promised to remember that Zhou Mei said to her at that time: "I know that sister, you are a kind person, I don't believe anyone, just believe you." ”
Now Zhou Mei is dead, silent.
Shuang promised to look at the pillow and said in his heart: If you believe me, it's useless. I'll forget what you told me. What if your godbrother has a Hebei accent? I won't say anything about anyone. I had already dropped the small porcelain bottle with the charge, and all the pieces were thrown away.
You're dead, and I can't die with you.
