Chapter 11 Acacia Buried
On the second day, Moyu got up early, took the clay pot, and went to collect the morning dew. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info In the midst of thousands of flowers, she is like an elf, flexible in the world. When the harvest was almost done, Mo Yu shook off the dew on the corner of his clothes and walked back. Came to the kitchen, lit the fire, boiled tea, cooked, everything was orderly, not at all like the ladies in the capital, who were not stained with spring water.
The yard was still quiet and no one got up. When the housekeeper walked into the kitchen, he saw such a scene. A beautiful woman was adding firewood to the stove, then pouring the water from the wooden bucket next to her into the cauldron on the stove, pouring rice, washing rice, covering the pot, and then looking at the tea boiling next to it. He was a little incredulous, in the Ji Mansion, at this time, the ladies and ladies were still sleeping, who would get up and do rough work by themselves like her.
"The eldest lady is really different."
When Mo Yu heard the voice, she didn't look back, she didn't lift it, and listening to his tone that was not salty or light, she knew that her last words last night scared him a lot. She suddenly felt in a good mood and smiled, "Really? I don't have three heads and six arms, what's the difference? ”
He walked into the kitchen, looked at the heat on the pot, and said sincerely: "No young lady has ever gone to the kitchen in person, like this...... Loss of identity. ”
Identity? Did she ever have an identity? How many people in the world know that she is the eldest lady of the capital Jifu? But she didn't care about this, and said with a smile: "When I was a child, I did these jobs, because everyone had to drink water and eat, and sometimes I was happier when I was self-reliant." ”
The housekeeper squatted down and added a handful of firewood, "The truth is so, but after all, this is rough work, and it should be done by the subordinates." ”
The reason why minions are minions is because they think they are minions from the bottom of their hearts, and only minions will use hierarchical points to educate themselves, what should and should not be done, and never dare to trespass.
Mo Yu gave him a blank look, ignored him, and Gu Zi took out a piece of pork on the case and cut it. "They probably won't get up until noon for that mess last night, are you hungry and waiting for them?"
The housekeeper looked at her white green jade fingers, and his courage rose to his throat, thinking to himself, can she hold that bright kitchen knife? "Miss, let's do it with me!" There was dissatisfaction and distrust in his eyes, and he said: "How can there be a reason for the master to serve the slave." ”
To put it bluntly, she, the eldest lady, can't change her background even if she wears phoenix clothes. Mo Yu didn't twist either, standing aside and waiting. "Chop it into minced meat. In my case, I may be the master, but none of them are slaves. ”
After she said this, the housekeeper recalled that it seemed that those subordinates never called themselves slaves and slaves every time they talked to her, they all called themselves by their own names, and even sometimes they spoke to you and me, without any rules of dignity and inferiority. I thought, sure enough, there is no etiquette and deference that a genuine lady should have, a wild girl who grew up in the folk, even if she looks like a big lady on the outside, even if she has noble blood in her body, she is still a wild girl in her heart.
Looking at the butler's way of cutting meat, I knew that he had never entered the kitchen, and the meat was cut into large pieces and small pieces, and some of them had not been cut off, but it didn't take much effort to chop minced meat, as long as the strength was strong and the endurance was good. Looking at the sweat on his forehead, Mo Yu felt "stained" twice in his heart, secretly thinking that he would not succeed in anything!
"Alright, almost, put it down!"
The housekeeper was released like a negative, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from the corner of his forehead, and his tone was a little undulating. "Thank you, Miss."
"Thank me for what to do, it should be me Xie Butler."
"The eldest lady is generous, and never treats her subordinates as slaves, and this open-mindedness is admired by other slaves."
A sneer appeared at the corner of Mo Yu's mouth, seeing that he was very loyal to praise, he couldn't tell how to arrange her in his heart. As the saying goes, those who say good things must have a ghost in their hearts, and sure enough, the careful voice of the butler came. "The old slave drank two more glasses last night, if he said something that shouldn't be said, it annoyed the eldest lady, and I hope that the eldest lady has a lot, don't take it to heart."
Look at what she said, everyone said that it was drunk, if she continued to not let go of others, wouldn't it seem that she was narrow-minded. It's a pity that she doesn't eat this set.
He said that he would just drive people away, and she could also pretend to be confused and shut up and not speak.
The white steam on the stove was steaming, and the black jade was put on minced meat, salt, and chopped green onions, and boiled for about half an hour. A sweet smell of rice porridge emanates from the kitchen.
Turning off the heat and putting it on a plate, Mo Yu walked out of the kitchen with a tray, not glancing at the butler during the process, and letting him stop talking on the side. Walking to the door, Mo Yu stopped, turned his back to the housekeeper and said, "Butler Ji, I want to tell you something, I am a very grudgeful person. Putting this aside, Ling Lang is really good, I think Master Ji will definitely agree with my proposal for the prosperity of the Ji family, even if I am not blessed to get Ling Lang's help, I think the second lady will definitely have that blessing. ”
The morning of March was no longer cold in winter, but Steward Ji, who was standing by the fire, felt cold and piercing.
At noon, when the sun was in the sky, everyone in their sleep woke up and consciously went to the kitchen to eat millet porridge cooked by Moyu.
In the afternoon, everyone packed their luggage, put away what should be put away, and removed what should be withdrawn. In a short period of time, they will no longer live here, and maybe they will not come back again in this life.
Yunshang was collecting things in the back room, and she still couldn't believe that she was really leaving here. In the morning, when Miss told her about this, she thought that Miss was joking, and later when she met Steward Ji, she asked Steward Ji again, and Steward Ji said that he came up the mountain to pick up Miss back, and he had to accept this fact when he thought about Miss yesterday's various situations. It can't be blamed for her not believing it, this thing came too suddenly, without any warning.
"Miss, will we come back here in the future?"
There was a reluctant voice from the back room, Mo Yu looked at the can of peach blossom wine on the table, the smell of wine was still the same, at this time in previous years, that person would drink with her cup, and the evil peach blossom eyes always liked to ask her, "Do you really want to live here for the rest of your life?"
"I don't know, but I won't be back in a short time, so let's put that white jade flute on too!"
"Oh, what about Jean?"
He always likes to stand behind her, lazy on her waist, on the viewing pavilion, sitting and watching the sun rise and sunset, and the clouds roll away. They behaved affectionately at times, but she had never heard of any promises or affection from him. "Jean, just stay here!" Maybe one day, it will run into someone who understands it and take it away. "By the way, what do you want to do?"
"Hey, she's probably going to be able to get up at night." She was greedy for a cup last night, and said that she would only drink one cup, and in the end she drank the whole drink.
It's good to have a sad day, or it's good to be drunk.
He also likes to drink, but never gets drunk, he likes to get plum blossom petals in the winter, I don't know where to get plum blossom petals, ask her to make plum blossom wine, and then enjoy the snow to make tea, how happy and comfortable. But in the future, I'm afraid that there will be no such opportunity, she is a canary in captivity in the deep palace, and he continues to live his happy life.
Since he doesn't accept her intentions, then bury it! "Yunshang."
Yun Shang, who was packing up her things behind her, heard the voice, and the things in her hand didn't stop, and asked without looking back: "Miss, what's the matter!" ”
"Go get a shovel."
Yunshang was puzzled, and she didn't know what Moyu wanted the shovel to do, but she didn't ask too much, and went out to get the shovel.
In the yard of Moyu, there is a peach tree planted, but unfortunately, it is too small, it has not bloomed and has not borne fruit, it was originally intended to be planted to make a scene, the green leaves are soft, you can smell the fragrance of the leaves when you get closer.
"Miss, it's done." Yunshang put down the shovel and wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead.
Mo Yu stroked the wine jar in his hand, and his heart was not a taste. But I still squatted down and put the jar in my hand into the hole I dug, and some things, since they have been discarded, let's bury them! It is better to be buried in the ground, although you have to endure darkness and loneliness, than to be ruthlessly trampled by others.
A little guy came in and asked, "Miss, what about those medicines in the yard?" ”
Planting those medicinal materials is just a kind of interesting when reading medical books, usually everyone has a simple wind chill and fever can also be used, there is no shortage of medicinal materials in the Ji Mansion, and there will be no shortage in the palace. "Move them under the eaves and put them there!" They are born and raised in the mountains, so let them stay here forever!
When he returned to the house, Yunshang continued to tidy up, and Mo Yu picked up those that should be taken away, and packed them in boxes if they didn't take them.
After a while, the housekeeper brought someone in, it was the five nurses he brought, and he entered the house and said, "Miss, the things can be packed up, if you can, I will let them bring some down the mountain first, and take the rest with you tomorrow morning." ”
In fact, when I came, because there was nothing here, naturally large bags and small bags were sent to the mountain, but there were not many things to really take away. Two boxes of books, a piano, a few paintings, and some clothes were gone. In the past ten years, there has been nothing more than this for her.
Mo Yu signaled, Yun Sheng led people into the house, and moved the whole things out, Mo Yu looked at the housekeeper and said leisurely: "Take these today, and take the rest away the day after tomorrow." ”
The day after tomorrow, isn't it tomorrow? "Miss, the master said, I have to ...... tomorrow"
"Okay, I said the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow!" Mo Yu said coldly.
The housekeeper stood there in a dilemma, and the master instructed that the eldest lady must be brought back tomorrow. But looking at Mo Yu, who had turned her back to him and continued to pack up her things, her tone was unacceptable, and after thinking about it, she finally bowed down and retreated, which was regarded as acquiescing to Mo Yu's request.
As for why Moyu wanted to stay on the mountain for one more day, he didn't know why. But the answer to this question was soon revealed.
On the third day after the housekeeper went up the mountain, there was a major event in the garden - the eldest lady was gone.
It's not a big deal, and people aren't in a hurry, it's the people who hear about it for the first time.
What should the people in the garden do, for them, their young lady's "disappearance" is a matter of three days and two ends, and when it comes to dinner or evening, she will come back by herself.
Originally, they didn't allow the young lady to go out of the courtyard and not allow outsiders to come in, but then the young lady didn't know what method she used, and she could always disappear under their noses, and they had looked for it as they did now, but in the evening, the young lady came back by herself, and then everyone tacitly stopped restricting her. When they first went up the mountain at night, they also fought with him, but unfortunately they couldn't beat the people and had to let the family in, and then they didn't see anyone take the young lady away, so they let him come and go freely, anyway, their task was to watch the young lady.
What was in a hurry was Steward Ji and the five nursing homes he brought. I want to complain that the housekeeper is rare and strange, and disturbs people's dreams early in the morning.
Saying that, early in the morning, the housekeeper wanted to go to Moyu to discuss the return, but when he arrived at Moyu's yard, Yunshang got up to find her young lady, and saw that her young lady's room was empty, and knew that Mo Yu must have gone out to wander by herself, so she went back to the housekeeper and said that her young lady was gone, and then went back to sleep.
Yunshang's sentence "gone" scared the housekeeper a lot, he was in charge of picking up people, no one saw what he took back, how to explain to the master when he went back, he didn't calculate that she would run away at this time, he shouldn't have believed her if he knew it, and he should have let the nursing home guard her last night. But now that the person is indeed gone, what's the use of regretting, looking for it! So there was a lot of trouble.
Yunshang also explained that it is normal for her young lady to disappear, and she will appear when it is time to appear, and her young lady will not escape, otherwise she would have fled a few years ago. But the housekeeper didn't believe it, and everything was careful, so everyone could only look for it when they returned to the garden, and they couldn't find it when they returned to the garden, and they ran outside the garden to find the entire Wuyan Mountain.
Although the people in the garden did not live in the Ji Mansion, they were also smart, and when they went out of the garden, they found a place that no one could see, beat a hare, set up a fire to roast meat to eat, or found a secluded place to sleep. Explain to them that they don't believe it, so fools find people with them.
In the afternoon, the sun was setting in the west, and everyone came back one after another, of course, they didn't find the person they were looking for, and some people went back to the house to sleep when they came back, and there was nothing wrong with them anyway.
The butler paced back and forth in the doorway, craneing his neck and not seeing anyone he wanted. He was thinking about whether to let the family light a torch and go out to find it, he was not thinking about Moyu's escape now, he was thinking, it was almost dark this day, if there was an accident on Moyu's road, even if he found someone, it would be difficult to explain when he returned home.
Just when he was looking forward to the stars and the moon, a figure finally appeared not far away, and the family reminded: "Steward Ji, you're back, you're back." ”
The housekeeper followed the direction pointed by the housekeeper, and sure enough, it was a figure, and he hurriedly ran forward, but there was no doubt that it was the eldest lady with bright eyebrows and teeth in front of him. The heart that has been nervous all day finally falls at this moment, as long as the person comes back, it is worth it no matter how hard and tired it is today. wiped the sweat on his face, pretended to be indifferent and said, "Miss, you're back, it's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”
Mo Yu looked at the six people in front of her, all of them looked tired, and she knew with her toes that they must have been looking for her all day today, and she didn't break it. Since the fate that can't be changed, the whole of them is still more than enough, and whoever let them enter the door didn't look at her directly. She just sent a message that she could go back, she could enter the palace, but she would not be at their mercy.
"Well, I'm back, let's go to bed so late!" Mo Yu said lightly.
Go to sleep, right? Don't need dinner anymore? They've been fine all day, and her stomach is rumbling!
"The eldest lady came back so late, so it's better to have dinner first." The butler suggested.
Mo Yu continued to walk forward, wanting to laugh but embarrassed to laugh. "I've used it, I'm not hungry now."
You're not hungry, I'm hungry! The butler screamed in his heart. He was looking for someone when he was back to the garden just now when he was eating, and now that the pots and pans have been washed and slept, and none of them can cook, do you call them up to cook for them?
Mo Yucai didn't care if they had eaten or not, anyway, she had already eaten at the bottom of the mountain. Today she went down the mountain to say goodbye to the villagers down the mountain, who often got her help and the children liked her even more, so they left her for dinner.
