August came in a blink of an eye, the osmanthus bloomed, and the fragrance spread throughout the forest mansion. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Su Ju picked a basket of osmanthus flowers, saying that she was going to make osmanthus wine, so she got busy. July has finally passed, and the new August has been exchanged for new vitality, and there is no need to worry about the ghosts and gods, and the house has begun to come alive up and down.

Because of the second master's continuation, the house is full of red makeup, and it is festive, just waiting for the second master to greet him. The old lady smiled from ear to ear.

"Why did you spend 1,500 taels of silver on the purchase of flowers for this marriage?" The old lady was angry, the last time Hua Ge'er married with great fanfare, it only cost 1,000 taels, and this time the second marriage ceremony cost 1,500 taels.

Steward Liu, who was in charge of purchasing, knelt on the ground and said sincerely, "Old lady Mingjian, prices are soaring in the county, slaves are what to buy and what is expensive, slaves are thousands of choices to choose good and cheap goods, please the old lady to see!" Steward Liu kowtowed.

The old lady trembled with anger, she didn't care about her family all these years, and these slaves didn't take herself seriously. Dare to be famous and cheating people, and he has not yet reached the age of old eyes and faintness!

"Discerning? Don't think I don't know about your secret deeds, just make up for the money for your years of hard work for the Lin Mansion, and I won't pursue your mistakes. ”

"The old lady is really wronged by the slaves, even if there are a hundred brave slaves in the middle, the slaves will not fool the old lady, the slaves are loyal to the old lady Lin Mansion, this is the account book of purchase, please let the old lady look at it." Steward Liu called out an account book.

The magpie took it and read it to the old lady, "One hundred catties of white rice for a total of thirty taels of silver, and fifty jars of rice wine for a total of one hundred taels of silver~" The more the magpie read it out, the more angry the old lady became, threw the tea bowl straight out, and splashed Steward Liu.

Steward Liu fell to the ground and said loudly, "Old lady, the slave didn't lie to you, the slave still has the receipt signed by the shopkeeper of the shop, please look at the old lady!" ”

It's okay not to look at it, but when I saw that the old lady almost turned her back on her anger, she dared to collude with the shop to start a fire to harm herself and make a profit from it! It's amazing, it's turned upside down.

The magpie comforted the old lady softly, and told the golden finch to invite the fifth and ninth girls to persuade the old lady not to hurt herself.

Yuqing was embroidering purses and handkerchiefs, which were all gifts to be given to the Li family, and he personally made the tricks in seconds, and asked the maids to wrap the embroidery thread and start to do it.

The golden finch hurriedly came to the Yuxiu Pavilion, "The ninth girl is here?" The old lady was not feeling well, so she asked the ninth girl to come over. ”

As soon as Yuqing heard this, she put down the work in her hand and followed the goldfinch out, and Su Ju hurriedly opened the parasol and followed the girl out.

"What happened?"

The golden bird told the nine girls one by one, "Steward Liu is obviously bullying the old lady for too many years, and he is greedy for silver without knowing the price, and the nine girls go first, and the slaves and maids have to pass on the five girls." ”

Yuqing nodded, and walked towards Songhe Hall, and when he came to the main house, Steward Liu had already left, leaving only the old lady's scolding and the persuasion of magpies and treasure birds.

The fifth girl, Huiqing, also came with her skirt, and her delicate makeup face was covered with a thin layer of sweat, obviously coming in a hurry.

"Fifth sister Ann." Yu Qing blessed his body and saluted to Huiqing.

Huiqing was very surprised to see that Yuqing was also here, and turned her mind to think, the ninth sister is very attentive to her grandmother these days, and the grandmother values her more and more, and it is reasonable to call her to accompany her. ”

I saw that the old lady's face was pale, and she was still overworked a few days ago, and her whole face was extremely ugly, it seems that Steward Liu was so angry that the old lady was not light!

"Steward Liu is too disrespectful, he dares to bully his grandmother," Huiqing sat on the old lady's couch, patted the old lady gently, and persuaded, "Grandmother is angry, I have already told my mother, let my mother clean him up, such a slave should be thrown out of the house!" It's really not worth it for my grandmother to be angry with such a minion, it's not that I'm uncomfortable when I'm angry! ”

The old lady relieved her breath a little, was coaxed by Huiqing to drink tea, and said, "I'm only five hundred taels of silver, I'm really angry, but I still look like a matter of course." ”

"Those Diao slaves will act like bullying their masters, and they think that grandmother, you don't know anything if you don't do anything for many years, and you have to have that ability to hide from the world!"

"Hmph, he's so capable! It's just a rotten mouth. ”

The magpie and the treasure bird secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the old lady drinking tea and talking to the five girls. I looked at the nine girls sitting at the bottom and shook their heads, I thought that the nine girls were also favored by the old lady, and they had some ability, but they still didn't use it at a critical time!

"The eldest lady is here."

The eldest lady took someone into the house with someone to escort Steward Liu, "Mother, Steward Liu made a mistake under your hands, it was the daughter-in-law's negligence and the daughter-in-law's housekeeper was not good, please punish the mother!" ”

Yu Qing sneered, please punish the old lady? The old lady's anger has disappeared, and you are late with Steward Liu, is this not clear to take advantage of this vacancy!

"Forget it, I'm just doing this for the second child," the old lady didn't want to punish the eldest lady, so she naturally spoke for the eldest lady, "It's not easy for you to take care of the house, it is inevitable that there will be an oversight to make those Diao slaves take advantage of the loopholes, since you are in charge of this family, you can deal with it in charge of Liu." ”

"Steward Liu coveted the old lady's silver, so he should be punished," the eldest lady said with the intention of defending Steward Liu, "Steward Liu personally calculated the money and handed over the greedy silver, a total of six hundred and eighteen taels, please take a look at it." ”

Huiqing got up, slowly took the silver ticket and details, handed them to the old lady, and then thoughtfully pounded the old lady's legs.

The old lady looked happy and said, "Reward twenty-five dozen more boards to set an example!" ”

"What my mother said is very much, those Diao slaves still have some scruples after heavy punishment, and Mama Zhao pulled them out for execution!"

With Steward Liu's shouting and begging for mercy, this matter came to an end, and Yuqing always felt a little strange, but he couldn't say it.

"Grandmother, there is a way for granddaughter to be talked about is not worth talking about?"

The old lady looked down, forgot about the nine girls, and apologized, "You just say it." ”

"Buying in the house is a big deal, the housekeepers are all vying to do this errand, the reason is nothing more than a lot of oil and water, holding the three melons and two dates inside, if you let three people buy at the same time, with their own ability to negotiate with the merchants in the county, whoever has the lowest price will send whom, half of the difference in the price as a reward."

The old lady's eyes widened when she heard this, "I know that our nine girls are smart, I didn't expect to be so smart, this method is very good, what do you say, eldest daughter-in-law?" ”

The eldest lady listened to the words of the ninth girl, and was still stunned, and when the old lady asked her, she pulled her back, and followed the old lady's words, "Yes." ”

The old lady beckoned to Yuqing and said with a smile, "Nine girls, come." ”

Yuqing stepped forward and received the old lady's sandalwood bracelet with her wrist removed, "Grandmother, this is your favorite sandalwood bracelet, where is Yuqing to beg, no, grandmother, you should keep it." ”

"The nine girls are worthy of this sandalwood handpiece, teach you to take it."

Huiqing frowned, very unhappy in her heart, she has been thinking about this hand, not only her four-room Shuqing has also asked for it many times, now it's okay, Yuqing asked for the handbag with an idea, or smiled and persuaded Yuqing, "Grandmother gave you your blessing, you can take it." ”

The eldest lady's expression remained unchanged, she smiled slightly, plucked the crystal sapphire hairpin from her head and handed it to Yu Qing, "Nine girls, you have such a good idea for your aunt, your aunt is very happy, this is what your aunt gave you." The eldest lady wore it on Yuqing's head.

As soon as he returned to Yuxiu Pavilion, Yuqing felt groggy and lay on the bed.
