Chapter 20 Concubine Pu Liu
She sat there, her eyes were clear, her eyebrows were full of confidence, this was her home, this was her mother's thing, she was calm.
Mama Wang's palms were sweaty, and she felt for the first time that this fifth lady was different from other girls. The third miss will not be able to do anything but be willful at her age, let alone Miss Seven, and she will not be like this when she grows up.
"Well, since the fifth lady said so, then the mother-in-law will go and invite the second wife, after all, the matter of the back house of our West Mansion still has to be said by the second wife to count."
Linglong smiled: "Then there is Mama Lao." ”
After speaking, she drank tea again and swallowed melon seeds, and said to Xingyu while snorting: "These melon seeds are soaked in bayberry juice and then fried, it is really delicious, and it would be better if it was paired with a snack made of bayberry." ”
Mama Wang rubbed the sweat on the side of her skirt on the palm of her hand, bit her lower lip, and said to Mulan, "Let's go and invite the second wife." ”
Seeing them go out, Xingyu asked, "Miss, are you okay?" ”
Linglong smiled: "What can I do if I get my mother's things back?" It's a pity that I can't find all the account books in my mother's house, otherwise I would have to come back in everything. ”
Yes, not only Rong Yuan's account books are gone, but even the list of Feng's dowry back then is probably gone, the Feng family has fallen, no one can support the Feng family, and no one is afraid of the Feng family's mother's family coming to find these things.
To everyone's surprise, Song Xiuzhu did not come. Mama Wang added oil and vinegar to convey Linglong's words to her, Song Xiuzhu sneered: "I just mean, this fifth miss in our family is not a fuel-efficient lamp, you people should keep your eyes open in the future and be careful, I don't know which day, this master will become the fifth miss, and when the time comes, you, and you, will be taken away." ”
The white tender fingers coated with impatiens juice pointed at the heads of several maids, and she looked at Mama Wang again: "You are the old man in the house, Sister Yuan was raised by you, and you know better than them what the eldest lady looked like before." Alas, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you, speaking of which, I'm just a second wife, just like today, the fifth lady asked me to go, how dare I go. If she can beat Spring Peach, she can beat me. I don't have anything, I pity Sister Yuan, I was put on the boat by her, and I am still sick. ”
Song Xiuzhu wiped her tears as she spoke, and her eyes were on fire when she said that Mama Wang.
Jin Yuan grew up on her milk, she brought her up, and in her heart she has long regarded Jin Yuan as her own flesh and blood.
How powerful the fifth lady is, she has also seen it today, seeing that the second wife is about to lose power in the house, what can Sister Yuan do at that time?
"Second wife, don't worry, no matter how powerful Miss Fifth is, she is just a twelve-year-old girl, what kind of storm can she rise, according to the mother-in-law, as long as there is a third master, she can't toss anything, she is a young lady, and her future future does not depend on the third master."
Song Xiuzhu was wiping her tears again: "The fifth lady's family affairs were set early in the morning, and she will marry out when she reaches the age, poor my sister Yuan, she was innocent by her, what can I do with my family affairs in the future!" ”
She was born delicately, and she cried more like pear blossoms with rain, several maids wiped their tears, and Mama Wang had a sour nose, yes, the fifth miss had a good family, but her third miss had nothing, but she lost her innocence.
This matter can't be left like this, the Jin family can't take the turn of the fifth lady to gain power!
Linglong and Xingyu chatted about the idle day with melon seeds, but they couldn't wait for Song Xiuzhu. Linglong yawned and said to Xingyu: "The second wife will not come, the sun is very good outside, let's go to the yard to do needlework, my mother's summer socks have not been sewn yet." ”
"Miss, why don't you say the second wife comes?" Xingyu was confused, she mustered all her strength to help the young lady quarrel, but the master who wanted to quarrel did not come.
Linglong smiled: "The second wife is not as muddy as the third sister, where did these jewelry come from, the third sister doesn't know, she knows best." She wouldn't have come to such a shameless thing, but now she must be crying and saying how pitiful she is, maybe a room full of people are crying with her. ”
Xingyu's eyes widened, the little girl was thirteen years old, a little stubborn and a little spicy, Linglong still had relatives, but she only had one relative.
"Miss, how do you know?"
"Guess." Delicate grinning. There are many kinds of women's beauty, Feng Wanrong is delicate and gorgeous, Song Xiuzhu is weak, she was like this when she was young, she always seemed to dare not speak, I felt pity.
Sure enough, no one came again this afternoon, Linglong sewed her mother's summer socks, embroidered peonies on the snow-white summer satin, and the leaves were finely hooked with silver needles, so that the flower also had aura.
"Miss's embroidery skills are really good, let's learn together, but I can't compare to Miss no matter how I practice." This is true, Linglong's hands are more flexible than ordinary people, she and Xingyu are embroidery learned from the embroidery girls in the old house, and I haven't seen how hard Linglong is, and her embroidery patterns are even praised by those skilled embroidery girls.
Jin Wuxi sank, dyeing the yard golden red, Linglong took a deep breath, the air was fresh, and there was the fragrance of grass and trees.
Seeing that the night was getting deeper and deeper, she went back to the house to change into night clothes, and raised her fingers at Xingyu to make a shushing motion.
Compared with her previous life, her skills are still much worse, so recently, every night, she will go out, sometimes flying on the wall, sometimes running, she wants to do her best to restore her ability.
In this life, she is the same as in her previous life, there is no one to rely on, she not only has to rely on herself, but also takes care of her mother, so she must not be a weakling.
She has to go out every night, Linglong is already familiar with the capital, she can avoid the soldiers on the night patrol very cleverly, but she never slips the door and picks the lock.
It's not that she wants to change her ways, but she doesn't step on the dots with her heart, and for professional thieves, it's very amateurish to collect vegetables without picking them.
Don't think that being a thief can go it alone, that's completely wrong. A qualified thief, in addition to stepping on points, can also sell stolen goods.
Linglong still doesn't know the rules for selling stolen goods in the capital, so she can't act rashly.
It's summer, but it's not hot yet, the night is a little cool, and the breeze is very comfortable on your face. Linglong was running in the night, and suddenly she saw a horse.
The night was dark, the horses were dark, and the people on the horses were even darker.
Unexpectedly, she met this person again, Linglong stood under the cornices of a family and said hello to him.
Hey, it's not easy to meet humans during the night ban, let alone acquaintances.
