Chapter 31: Questioning
Chapter 31 Speaks
Qiu Shi Niang grabbed Qiu Shi and helped her think of a way, "You go and beg Mrs., or I will ask for sick leave and let you take care of me at home, and you avoid going to Jiangzhou Mansion with the sixth girl." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Qiu Shi broke away from her mother's hand and shook her head, "Mother, you are on an errand in the yard of the second wife, everyone knows that you have been fine these days, if you suddenly get sick, or if I am sick when I come back, then no one knows what's going on?" ”
"You girl!" Qiu Shiniang slapped her, "Why do you want to go with the sixth girl?" Do you want to come back? Do you know that the Hu family is just a merchant, those merchants have no rules the most, and they value profits, maybe one day they will see that you are good, and they may sell you. ”
"Qiu Shi, don't worry about it, I have a sense of proportion in my heart." Akimi had impatience on her face.
"What's your measure?" Qiu Shiniang looked at this daughter suspiciously, "Do you have any ideas?" You tell your mother, you have no conscience, give birth to you, and even hide it from your mother? ”
Qiu Shi was entangled and had no choice, looked left and right, at this time it was almost time for lunch, but no one came here, but Qiu Shi was still cautious, and motioned her mother to follow her to a rockery behind the moon gate.
Qiu Shiniang followed her closely, and also felt her appearance, looking left and right to see if there was anyone, "You say, Niang listen." ”
Qiu Shi took out a purse from his sleeve, stuffed it into her mother's hand, and whispered, "This is for your two elders, don't let your sister-in-law know." ”
Qiu Shiniang pinched the purse and knew that it was silver, nodded excitedly, and hurriedly opened it to see, and then raised her head in surprise and asked her daughter, "This is ten taels!" Where did you come from? ”
You must know that the monthly example of the first-class maid ring beside the lady and girl is only 800 Wen to 1 tael, and her sprinkling and sweeping woman is only receiving 300 Wen a month, and Qiu Shi takes 500 Wen a month, if you accumulate it in this way, you can't accumulate ten taels a year, and Qiu Shi has 200 Wen home every month, plus she usually buys some head rope and needlework and the like, and the other half is not enough.
"Is it the sixth girl?" Qiu Shiniang immediately guessed, "It was rewarded by the sixth girl?" If that's the case, these six girls are really rotten boats with three pounds of nails, and it's not too bad, why is she rewarding you here? ”
Qiu Shi saw that her mother understood it so well and followed her guess: "There are five taels that the sixth girl asked me to bring back to my father, because I want to follow her out of the house, and there are five taels that she usually rewards me, wasn't she sick last time?" It's all because I worked hard to serve her at the door, in fact, the sixth girl is quite generous, and she has done a good job in this regard. ”
Qiu Shiniang nodded, "Generous is quite generous, but girl, these six girls are not happy with the second wife after all, how long can she maintain this reward?" If the second wife doesn't care about her in the future, and the Hu family has no reason to give her the money for nothing, when the time comes, she has no money on hand, don't you maids suffer with it? ”
"Mother, don't worry, I see that my uncle still likes the sixth girl, and it may not be unproductive when the time comes, the Hu family has money over there, right? If I save money for two more years by the side of the sixth girl, I will be able to find someone else at that time, right? ”
"You are not ashamed, you still want to get married!" Qiu Shiniang also felt that she didn't agree, the sixth girl didn't look like a likable child, it was strange if she could be liked by the elders, she was most afraid that she would marry in Jiangzhou Mansion in the future, so wouldn't her Qiu Shi also settle down there? She really didn't want to, "Qiu Shi, my mother thinks it's ......"
"Okay, it's not too early, I see someone looking for you, you are busy first, I still have to say a few words to my former sisters, don't worry, I know it in my heart." Qiu Shi pushed her mother and went out, but she walked away in a hurry, afraid that her mother would chase after her, so she didn't notice that she bumped into a person.
"Ouch, are you blind?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Qiu Shi apologized again and again, "It turned out to be Sister Ziyun, didn't hurt you, right?" ”
Zi Yun softened her chest, her face was very bad, she looked Qiu Shi up and down, and her eyes flashed with disdain, "Yo, isn't this Qiu Shi next to the sixth girl?" Why don't you follow the six girls to Jiangzhou Mansion, what are you going to do when you go back to the mansion? ”
"Ziyun." Someone from behind shouted softly.
Qiu Shi hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "I've seen the four girls." ”
The fourth girl smiled and nodded, "Why did Qiu Shi come back?" The sixth sister asked you to come back? Is she okay? ”
"It was the sixth girl who asked me to come back and say goodbye to my father, the sixth sister is all right, and the fourth girl Xie remembers."
The fourth girl nodded again, "That's good, I'm most worried about her, with you and Mother Gu by your side to take care of me, I am also relieved." ”
"It's the slave's business."
"I don't know when the sixth sister will leave? Since you are back, you come to my yard, I will bring you some things for the sixth sister, and it is thanks to her that I went to my grandmother's side to help us fulfill our filial piety...... You come with me. The fourth girl walked in front, her yard was actually in Zhilan Courtyard, but there was an extra row of houses behind the main house, and some flowers and plants were planted in front of the door, which was barely a yard, and the four girls also named the courtyard over there, called Tinglan Pavilion.
She lived with the eldest girl He Yunrong, there were three houses, originally the three sisters had one room, and then the six girls moved to the courtyard to recuperate, and the remaining one made their sisters a study, although their He family used to be the earl's house, but in this capital where every inch of land is expensive, there is a five-entry house is already very good, plus the branches and leaves, this population is large, it becomes crowded.
Qiu Shi immediately followed in the footsteps of the four girls.
Zi Yun glared at her silently when she squeezed over.
Qiu Shi smiled at her flatteringly.
Zi Yun's face was a little better now.
When they arrived at Tinglan Pavilion, the four girls sent Ziyun out for tea, and she left Qiu Shi in the house.
"Uncle came to the house this morning to say goodbye, saying that he would set off tomorrow, and it will take two days to get to Jiangzhou Mansion here, and I don't know if the sixth sister is used to it? When she heard the news, she didn't know if she was happy? The fourth girl sat down and asked Qiushi casually.
Qiu Shi hurriedly said: "The sixth girl is quite willing, she is also afraid of living in the nunnery, there is nothing there, she always sleeps and sleeps warmly, and she can't eat a mouthful of ......."
"The sixth sister didn't say anything?"
"The sixth girl didn't say anything, but now the sixth girl is more sensible, and she acts like a little adult, and she is very assertive."
