For Qiao Ying was scolded by Wen Wei and secretly happy to press the branch, is standing behind Wen Wei with his head down, at the beginning of hearing the soft sound of autumn clouds and water, "pour tea for Sister Xiao", immediately moved his steps, turned into the small compartment, the three-legged stove in the charcoal fire is booming, the stove is burning copper kettle, the spout of the pot is steaming hot, rolling up like a cloud. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

He took the bamboo basket from the column, and took an inch of tea cake from the paper bag, put it into the teapot, poured boiling water and scalded it for a while, and when the tea was fragrant, he poured out the first cup and poured it into the spittoon, and then lifted it out lightly.

Buried his head deeply, he walked around the screen table and chairs without squinting, and skillfully added tea to the eighth point of the cup for Xiao Ruren, which was not only enough to drink but not to burn, and then quietly retreated.

The work of pouring tea has been done for a year, from the initial worry to now can not find a trace of mistakes, pressing the branch is well aware of this doorway, before that, she is just a sprinkler in the yard, Aunt Wen saw that she was honest, so she was promoted to a second-class maid, into the house to serve.

Although it is often squeezed out by Qiaoying, but now it seems that the caution of the past is worth it, and the day of emergence is coming, isn't it?

The Pressed Branch Divine Mind was floating outside the Nine Heavens, and suddenly felt Qiu Yunshui's glance, "This girl is very clumsy and stupid, and she can't afford to be appreciated by her sister." ”

Pressed Zhi Huo Ran was startled, subconsciously looked up at Qiu Yunshui, and saw that his face was not different, he couldn't help but breathe, Mrs. was suspicious, she didn't want to set herself on fire.

The two of them were still playing unfathomable Tai Chi between the conversations, and they didn't dare to enter their ears or hearts, but they remembered what Mrs. said, Xiao Ruren praised her?

There was a faint joy in the heart of the pressed branches, regardless of right and wrong, the wooden man who has always been regarded as an ornament has been noticed one day, and he is naturally happy.

As a result, he couldn't help but secretly raise his chin, lift his eyelids, and pour out a trace of his gaze, peeking at Xiao Ruren who was smiling and smiling in the guest seat.

At the moment, the heart is frightened.

The two widows of the General's Mansion are in the same room, the general knowledgeable and reasonable, the general shocking people, the autumn widows are better than the elegant and fairy-like charm, and the Xiao widows are partial to the charming faces.

One was born in a wealthy family, and the other was born in a family of gate lords.

One person has superb painting skills, and the other person has outstanding talents.

One person is quiet and thoughtful, and the other person has vicious and scheming methods.

The two beauties filled the hall with all its glory.

Pressing the branch suddenly felt a hot current in his heart, and the unprecedented ambition and ambition took root.

Inside, no one saw a maid in the corner who was not amazing at this time, and she was trying her best to decide the life and death of others with her kind eyebrows and gentle words to deceive the world, so as to win a place to live in the general's mansion.

"I heard that Mrs. gave birth the day before yesterday, and the old man waited outside the door all night, which is really affectionate." There was a wry smile on the corner of Xiao Ruren's mouth, and the next moment, there was a few hints of ridicule, and his eyebrows were flying, "It's just that I don't know if it's a man or a woman, why is there no follow-up." My sister is in a hurry to come to the door to congratulate. ”

"I fell to the ground in less than a month, and it is inevitable that my muscles and bones will be weak, and Mrs. Xu is afraid that the child will be cold, so she will not publicize it to the public." , autumn clouds and water drooping eyelashes, and the faint eyebrows are mixed with a thick melancholy.

"It's time to wash three tomorrow, but there is no movement in the house, doesn't my sister feel weird?"

"This matter is up to the old lady, so why should I worry." , Qiu Yunshui said softly.

Seeing her so cold, as if she really hadn't taken it to heart, Xiao Ruren couldn't help but sneer, "Sister knows the matter of babies, so there is no need to sell between you and me." If Mrs. had become a man in one fell swoop, she would have been known to everyone in Kyoto for a long time; If you give birth to a daughter, you will have both children and daughters, and there is no reason to be silent······" Before he could finish his words, he leaned forward, smiled as cunning as a fox, and said with great interest, "Didn't you give birth to a monster?" ”

The hall was silent for a moment, and the Qiu clan's master and servant all looked at Xiao Ruren with surprised expressions.

"My sister is straightforward and open-mouthed, my sister has never heard of this," Qiu Yunshui collected his warmth and said, "But if my sister is so innocent in the future, my Yunshui house is thin and thin, and I can't withstand my sister's shocking words." ”

A sentence froze Xiao Ruren's smile at the corner of his mouth, his nose moved, his red lips were pursed, his anger was faintly thin, and his cold look frightened the maid behind him to tighten his skin.

"It's just a joke, where did my sister get such a big fire", Xiao Ruren said, picked up the tea cup on the table casually, the porcelain wall collided, the sound was clear and crisp, and the branch stared at her hand, lest she accidentally fall and spray her anger on her, when she was scared, Xiao Ruren took a sip and put it down, and the cup was safe and sound.

Fortunately, fortunately, the branch was secretly suppressed.

"My sister came this time, firstly, I haven't seen my sister for a long time, and I miss it tightly, and secondly, Rong Huan, this girl, passed by Qinglan Courtyard when she went to Baixiu Garden to pinch branches, and ran into an interesting anecdote.

Qiu Yunshui raised his eyebrows, "Interesting fact? ”

"Eh-Rong Huan saw that Qiaoying was also on the side, didn't she tell her sister?"

Qiu Yunshui sneered in her heart, but her face was helpless, and she sighed, "That girl has a big temper, so she scolded her a few words because of her mistake, turned around and left, and didn't say anything interesting." ”

"Sister generosity, if it were me, I would have expelled her from the yard a long time ago."

"Young and ignorant, just be a good student." , Qiu Yunshui smiled ashamedly, "I don't know what the interesting story in my sister's mouth is?" ”

"The eldest young master has returned home."

"My sister is teasing me again? The eldest young master is the eldest son, even if he opens another mansion, the general's mansion is also his long-term home, and he can come and go freely, which is an interesting anecdote. ”

"This is indeed not unusual," Xiao Ruren hooked the corners of his lips and looked at Qiu Yunshui's eyes, "Although the eldest young master is not on good terms with the master, he is very close to his wife. As the saying goes, mother and son are connected, the mother is seriously ill, and the filial son feels it, so he abandons his ministry and makes a special trip back to his home to visit, which is not unusual? ”

"Huh? I've only read about things in my heart, but I've never seen it, this mother and son are ······", Qiu Yunshui blinked his eyelids with interest, and in an instant, his complexion changed greatly, "Sister is saying that Madame is seriously ill?" Is there any real evidence? ”

"Sister doesn't believe me?" , Xiao Ruren tilted his head like a young beast and asked.

"It's not that I don't believe it, but I just have a heart······ It's almost weird, I'm ······."

"What if the lady said it herself? Sister credible? She howled and cried in front of the public, extremely sad, and said that her wife was in danger, and her life and death were unknown. Xiao Ruren sighed vainly, covering his face with his sleeves, very regretful.

Qiu Yunshui immediately left her seat and got up, "Madam······ Why did Madame go so far as to summon the government doctor to check the pulse? ”

Xiao Ruren Yin Yin nodded, "Naturally, it was called, I'm afraid that the government doctor will be helpless." ”

"This ······" Qiu Yunshui looked sad, was silent for a long time, and looked up at Xiao Ruren, "I have a few rare herbs and medicines in my house, if my sister is free, you might as well go to Qinglan Courtyard with me to visit." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Ruren shrank his shoulders timidly, "It's better to be free, right now the eldest young master is in the lady's room, and his temperament is exactly the same as that of the lady, like a powder keg, it will explode at one point." He is not used to seeing us, hasn't my sister also eaten his lessons? My sister didn't dare to touch her head rashly. ”

"That's all because my subordinates lost their words, don't blame the eldest young master for being angry." Qiu Yunshui glanced at Wen Wei, "Besides, you and I are both from the General's Mansion, and we are taught by Mrs. Cheng on weekdays, and this time she is lingering on the sickbed, so she should go to visit." ”

"Thanks to her teaching!" Xiao Ruren gritted his teeth and whispered under his sleeves, Qiu Yunshui just didn't hear it, "But I don't have any rare herbs in my house, and I don't know how to use the Huang technique, so it's also a mess to go." As he spoke, he got up slowly, and said, "In this way, I won't delay my sister, and my sister will go back to kneel in front of the Buddha and pray for her wife's blessing and longevity." ”

"Well, that's fine. My sister walks slowly. ”
