Chapter 247: A Novel Gift (7)
"Mama Lin, Mama Jiang, the master told Yue'er to invite the two of you to get the gifts." The third-class maid Yue'er came to the kitchen to spread the word.
"Miss Yue'er, you said that the master estimated the gift for us? What a gift? Mama Lin was surprised. The master went out to bring back gifts, which should be for other masters, and I haven't heard of any master in the house giving gifts to the housekeeper and the cook. Since the master has given a gift, hurry up and get it.
"I don't know the details. The two of you are accompanying the mother, so naturally there are more than ours. ”
"You mean you already have a gift, can you tell Mama what you have?"
"Yes, the master's gifts are given according to rank. The slave maid is a third-class maid, and the gifts include towels, stockings, palace flowers, pearl hairpins, and soap and soap. There is also a beautiful flower cloth to make a gown...... Why, you don't want a gift? Then Yue'er will take it on your behalf and take it back for your own use. Yue'er said jokingly.
Mama Lin and Mama Jiang went upstairs to receive the gifts. When they saw a large bag of gifts from their master, Mama Lin's fat face lit up: "Are you sure this is for two slaves and maids?" ”
Yun'er couldn't help laughing: "Mama Lin, Mama Jiang, the two of you are my roommates, you usually serve me very hard, I have been out for a year, why do I have to give you a little thought, right?" As for all the fuss? ”
"No, the slave maid and the princess went to the treasury to get the ingredients, and I heard Mama Zheng and Mama Liu in the Fujin courtyard talking while walking, saying that the gifts you gave to Fujin are all novelties that we don't have in the Qing Dynasty, and I didn't expect the slave and maid to get them. You're still thinking about slaves and maids from afar......"
"It's because of the great distance that I bring back something that women like. Oh, these two big bags are gifts from Mama Lin and Mama Jiang, you are my companion, take the first-class monthly example, the gift is naturally a little more than that of the second-class maid. There are fabrics and ornaments and headdresses for your daughters, and the little girls love beauty, and they will like it when they take it back. It's not a particularly valuable thing, but we don't have it in the Qing Dynasty, and it's a rare thing. You don't have to be careless, just think about it, right? ”
"Thank you Master Yun, thank you for the four estimates."
Only then did Mama Lin and Mama Jiang know that it was indeed a gift from the master, so they quickly knelt down and kowtowed. Mama Lin gained weight after entering the palace, she ate well, didn't do much work, and was worry-free, and no one bullied her, so she got fat.
After receiving the gift, she returned to the residence and opened it to take a closer look, Mama Lin's eyes widened, she had never seen such a delicate thing! It's dizzying. The hand towel of the Qing Dynasty is made of cotton, and the face wiping hand towel given by the four estimates is hairy! Like a lamb's belly. And the fabric, the quilt, the brocade, the yarn...... It's just a lot of variety! There are also delicate jewelry, and the tassels hanging from the hairpin are transparent! Oh my God, there are necklaces made of unknown materials, agate bracelets, bracelets, and sparkling earrings...... What is this? The eyes are glazed...... These four estimates are true, and I don't know if Mrs. Chen has beautiful jewelry.
Mama Lin's daughter Zhu'er also came back with a bag, and when she saw her mother's gift, she screamed and pounced.
"What's in your hand?" Mama Lin's eyes widened again.
"This is a gift from Fang Fujin to the girls and grandmothers of Yiran Building, Zhu'er is a second-class maid, and it is naturally a second-class gift, you are a first-class companion, I think it is more than Zhu'er, right? Look at yours first. ”
"Look at yours first!" The mother and daughter are on the bar.
"Whoever it is first, it will be your dowry in the future. Didn't our mother and daughter get two copies? How embarrassing are you? Mama Lin compromised.
"Look, this is the lipstick given by Side Fujin, people call it lipstick, with such a wipe, the lips will be moisturized and moisturized, and Zhu'er will wipe it for you."
"Don't price, don't price, don't make trouble with Zhu'er, my mother is a man, I make my mouth red and scared, isn't it?"
"It's not the kind of bright red and bright red, it's just a little red, and Master Yun said it's a healthy color."
"You mean that the girls and grandmothers in Fujin's room also have gifts?"
"What do you mean? There are girls and grandmothers in the front and back courtyards and Mrs. Chen's courtyard, and even the little maids and eunuchs also have a copy, but they are men and have no jewelry and cosmetics. ”
The mother and daughter patronized to see the gifts, and even forgot to eat. When lying in bed, Mama Lin thought a lot. I don't know how much fatigue and running I have to endure outside, and how many times I have to go to the street to buy all these gifts? And those boxes in the hall, those for everyone to eat, what kind of generous woman can't have such a big heart, right?
Ling Juan had her own room and her own books, so she didn't come to Yun'er's room. I was reading a book in my room, and I really wanted to talk to Yun'er about whether I could find the medical equipment and medicines I bought. But seeing that Yun'er is so busy, she is embarrassed to say it.
Yun'er thought of it, in case there was an emergency birth, Ling Juan didn't have any equipment at hand, how could she deliver the baby? Those things need to be sterilized at high temperatures, and now sterilized?
So she took the fish and water to the small kitchen to get her snacks, and took advantage of this moment to use Tianmu to find Ling Juan's delivery kit and anti-inflammatory drugs, glucose, salt water and drip racks, etc. At least she could do business, but there wasn't any of that in the boxes in the hall.
Master gave Yun'er the ability to carry by air, and said that Yun'er would use it often, and the more she used it, the more flexible she became. In the future, I will also practice to strengthen my skills and carry bigger and heavier things. For example, cloth, various equipment, cars, oil drums, etc., these are not something that Tian Liang and Wang Ye can move.
Yun'er meditated cross-legged on the bed, reciting the mantra, and then thought for a while: "Some of the instruments and medicines that Ling Juan wants to use!" ”
After a moment of pause and opening his eyes, he almost shouted: Moved over! That's exactly what Ling Juan was going to use. Hurry up and go to the east house to find Ling Juan in person. Of course, she can't say that she carried it by herself, just that she found what she was going to use. Ling Juan was overjoyed, and followed Yun'er to the Westinghouse, and saw that it was really all for herself. Excitedly, he hugged Yun'er tightly: "Thank you!" Thank you! Thanks to you, Yunyun! ”
"Then take them quickly, and go to your own room and nibble on them and chew them as you please." After speaking, he and Ling Juan sent her baby to the east house. As soon as they left, the fish and water returned. Seeing that the master was not there, they thought that Yun'er had gone home to deliver milk.
In Yun'er's room, it was Yu'er who accompanied her today. If there are only two people in the room, Yun'er and Yu'er, Yu'er will be "completely exposed": talking to Yun'er is completely sisterly.
"Girl, you weren't so lavish, those things are all antiques in your dowry, as well as Master Chen's heirlooms, you give so many people, and you will ...... in the future"
Yun'er sighed and said, "I can understand that you think like this, and you really think about it for my good." Do you think that I went out and came back to do this to curry favor with Fujin and expand my network. Gave people all the good things that the Qing Dynasty didn't have? In fact, let me tell you, whether the relationship between people is good or not is not because of how many good things are given to whom, but whether there is psychological resonance. You also know my character.,I've never been going to please anyone.,Do you think I've sold cuteness in front of the prince? I don't do those things. ”
"What is selling moe?"
"It's the word from the other side, and it means to be cute, right? You also know what I did to Fu Jin a few years ago. Although it wasn't my intention, I did it after all, and I may think it's nothing in other houses, and the women in the back house are like that. But when I think about it, I feel very hateful, so let's just let Fujin miscarry. Fu Jin is so good to me, from the time I entered the house, I loved him like a daughter, and when I was pregnant with Xuan'er, I reacted so heavily for a while, and Fu Jin came to comfort me and take care of me almost every day. Do you think she deserves it? No, it's a rare camaraderie. She is pregnant and I want her to have a miscarriage, do you say evil or not? And throwing Cher into the well, isn't that murder? Fortunately, Xue'er has a good foundation and is blessed by the gods, otherwise wouldn't she have to die? Cher threw me into a well and drowned, what do you think would happen to me if I were in another house? Not only my father and mother, but also more than 200 people in our Chen family, as well as my uncle and cousin, were all affected. And when Fu Jin gave birth, I threw the spell given by the black dragon into her delivery room, if it wasn't for Master Gan Lin's timely rescue, Fu Jin would definitely die. These three things alone are enough for me to die a thousand times. and the time when the prince was caught bloodied was also a fatal sin. All these princes and Fu Jin forgave me, and didn't mention a word in front of the Queen Mother, why? Their hearts are too kind. Even if I'm not mentally normal, I can't forgive myself for attacking the royal Gege! Do you say that I am magnanimous or are they magnanimous? The killing of their daughters will be tolerated! So I've always wanted to make amends to Fujin, just saying 'I'm sorry' verbally? There is just such an opportunity, that is, to spend more money and buy more things, to be decent, and to get a little more hands-on. How much do you feel at ease, or what is sincerity? But no matter how precious these things are, they are not as precious as the lives of Fujin and Xue'er! I entered the palace, ostensibly at a loss, the prince is twenty years older than me, or a side room, but after I entered the palace, the prince Fujin has been taking care of me as a daughter, and he doesn't care about anything, just painting, writing, framing, and making gadgets. I'm going to be the lady of the main room, and I'm not so comfortable, right? It is possible to marry a young, handsome and talented offspring, but do you dare to guarantee that he will not change his mind in the future? If I had married into a big family with three wives and four concubines, my temper would have been eaten and wiped clean up long ago. I am very fortunate to be able to do what I love in my lifetime, no one interferes with and no one opposes it, where can I find such an environment? Yes, everything was taken out of my father's antiques and my dowry and exchanged in a foreign land, but do you know Sister Yu'er? Those antiques were very worthless in the Qing Dynasty. You also know that as soon as the Queen Mother came to the decree, my father and my mother began to collect my dowry, but there is an unwritten rule that Fang Fujin will marry the prince to carry sixty-four dowries, sixty-four lifts is not six, and then there is really no other way, my father took out all the valuable antiques in the family, and asked the horse staff to help send them to jewelry stores or antique shops and pawn shops, so many antiques plus together people only gave 20,000 taels of silver, or it depends on Ma Ping and the shopkeeper who collects antiques to know. But these antiques are much more expensive to get to the foreign land than in the Qing Dynasty. Can't you buy that many things? Antiques may also be more and more expensive in the Qing Dynasty, but who can guarantee that the descendants of the Chen family in the future can pass on these antiques from generation to generation? There will definitely not be a loser like the nephew of the eldest aunt? Moreover, if this bronze object is not sealed in a place where there is no air, such as a tomb, even the two small boxes I played with when I was a child, they have been oxidized very thin, and it will be difficult to guarantee that they will not become scrap copper and rotten iron in the future, and they are worthless! The exotic side calls antiques cultural relics, as long as they are genuine and have research value, they are very expensive. So if you say that you don't take advantage of this time to sell, you will keep it in your hands, maybe you will be exchanged for money by the descendants of a loser, and then send the money to a place like Bada Hutong, which one do you say is worth it? Sister Yu'er, whether it is pearl jade or jade, gold and silver, can only be exchanged for things that make life comfortable, and you can't buy life or happiness. Why bother to keep your eyes on those material gains? ”
"Hearing you say that, the slave also thinks don't take those things too seriously. I just feel that everything is in exchange for you and Master Chen's money, and the beard in the front yard still has to talk nonsense and grieve for you. ”
"In fact, this kind of person is not terrible, she says it when she has it in her heart, and her joys, angers, sorrows and sorrows are on her face, without those insidious thoughts, that is, to say a few unpleasant words, which stimulates and stimulates others. Let's ignore her, you don't want to see her if you don't see Fujin, Mama Zheng always reprimands her, she doesn't dare to be too arrogant in front of me. Don't worry about those little things, okay? I'm not going to let her be bullied into a corner without talking. It's you, hurry up and give Ryoko a few children. Twenty-four or five years old is the best age to have children, whether you are in good health or Liangzi, work hard and have two more children before the age of thirty. ”
"Oh, how did you say the slave is coming?"
"You haven't listened to it for a long time?"
"Of course the slave listened, you have a point."
"If you have a reason, don't worry about it, you know? I must have a good relationship with Fujin, and I can't do anything like other mansions. It's just to give something to the people in Fujin's room, they won't scold me behind my back because I gave them something, right? ”
"You're talking about reason."
"It's good that you understand. I'll tell you a secret, don't tell anyone. In the days between your two little days, you have to work hard, that's the best time to conceive, you know? ”
"Really? Thank you, girl. ”
"What is steamed, boiled, don't take me seriously. This is the experience summed up by people in foreign lands. Relax your mind a little, and the small things that come and go will pass with one eye open and one eye closed, don't take it seriously. It's better to go home and be kind to Liangzi and give him more nutrition. I was injured when I went out this time, and I almost couldn't come back, so I couldn't help it. But if I want to say that I am too good to him, I will definitely say something. You take the five hundred taels of silver tickets, make him something delicious, not necessarily big fish and meat, eat more fruits and vegetables is good for the body, ginseng, bird's nest are not things for young people to eat, go to the heart, raise him strong, it is a blessing for you and Rui'er. ”
"No, no, too much! My father-in-law is a guard, and his duty is to protect his master, even if he buys him delicious food, the slave and maid also have silver in his hand. Either the slave takes a hundred taels, or you don't care about it all the time. Girl, why have you always been so good to fish? ”
"Take, hold, can five hundred taels buy his life? That's what it means. If you want to say that I am good to you, it is you who are good. Okay, it's not early, let's sleep. ”
