Bao Sheng replied with a grin: "Then the slave maid and Sister Juan Bi will not leave the girl, and it will be good to accompany the girl forever!" If my mother is fine, she should be able to come back in the afternoon. The girl's compassion is our blessing, but it is not the reason for the indiscretion of the subordinates, those bad intentions who snub the girl deserve to be severely punished by the old lady! ”

Thinking of the mistreatment they had received, Bao Sheng was filled with righteous indignation. Bao Sheng is still young in the end, and he is only twelve or thirteen years old when he turns the New Year, and he has not yet learned to hide his true love at any time.

If they hadn't been harsh, how could the girl have worked so hard for them at such a young age? No matter how old the fifth girl is a year or two, she is still spoiled under the knees of the old lady, and at most she has to be enlightened. But the girls had to start thinking about how they could make her and the people who were waiting for them how to live better, and try their best to know a few words.

Now it's okay, the girl makes a clever trick to let the old lady pay attention to them, but don't you just knock over those black-hearted ghosts with a rod and punish them severely, their girls, no longer favored, are also the girls in this house, they are the relatives of the old lady, how can they bully!

"Just your mouth, the girl is still young, what nonsense in front of the girl, be careful that Mother Hong will pull your ears to give you a long memory when she comes back! It's also the girl's generosity that makes you so comfortable! ”

Juan Bi lightly tapped Baosheng's forehead with the back of the comb, and scolded with a smile; "Why don't you get your hair oil ready, girl, let's comb a double bun today, I'll bring you the red gold string of rice ruby pendants that the lord gave you, and then save two small begonia silk flowers?"

The pieces of jewelry given by the master, although they may not be very valuable, are very delicate, and they are suitable for children as big as the girl.

"It's good that Juan Bi decides, I absolutely believe in Juan Bi's vision!" Fang Nian responded with a soft smile, full of belief. Under the fine bangs, Fang Nian's big apricot eyes rose to become the second quarter moon, and in this regard, Juan Bi has more say than her.

"It's an honor to thank the slave girl for her trust!" Living in the Xinuan Pavilion of the old lady's Banyan Garden, whether it is Juan Bi, who has always been steady and gentle, or Bao Wei, who has always been active, they can't help suppressing their voices, and they don't dare to speak loudly, for fear of causing trouble to their own girls.

Now the new warm skirts they are wearing, this warm house, are all the treatment that the girl has worked hard to earn, but they can't spoil the girl's hard work because of them!

The words between the three of the master and servant came to an end, Juan Bi also cleaned up Fang Nian neatly, the curtain was gently opened again, Cai Wei walked in from outside, walked to Fang Nian, and replied softly: "Girl, the old lady has already risen, and the second and third girls in the backyard have also turned on the lights!" ”

After she took Juan Bi Bao Bao to carry hot water washing tools, she gave Fang Nian to the east courtyard to explore the situation, and then turned around.

"Then go and say hello to Grandmother!" Let Cai Wei lead, Liubao Bao Bao dealt with the follow-up in the room, Juan Bi followed Fang Nian to take care of it, and the three of them opened the curtain before and after and went out of the Xinuan Pavilion, passed through the main hall, and entered the east room where the old lady Zhang rested on weekdays.

Entering the east room, Zhang's big girl pomegranate was being served, and the curtain came out from the warm pavilion inside, that is, Zhang's bedroom, and blessedly to Fang Nian, and said: "The fourth girl is early, the old lady will clean up immediately, you can sit here now!" ”

While speaking, she led Fang Nian to the side, and the east window was the same as the West Warm Pavilion, all of which were large kang near the window, and the big kang was paved with scarlet yang, the big red swast was constantly carved on the silk backrest, the stone blue painted gold pillow, and the autumn fragrance was constantly on the head of the big mattress.

There is a pile of lacquer small tables on both sides, on the left is placed the green gold bottle furnace three-thing spoon incense box, on the right there is a famous kiln beauty, there are a few iron-boned red plums inserted in the goblet, which is gorgeous and unique, and the air is clear. and tea bowls, phlegm boxes and other things.

There are four chairs on the west side of the ground, all of which are set up with autumn fragrance color sprinkled flower chairs, and there is a foot pedal warm cage at the bottom, and there is also a pair of high tables on both sides of the chair, which are decorated with tea bowls and vases and other things, and a display is set up in a free style, which is not the same as the general. reveals the extraordinary heritage of the Shen family, and the ancestors are also connected with the ancestors of the founding princes.

Thinking of the little rumor that Bao Huihong's mother vaguely groped, Fang Nian sat down on the chair under the kang under the guidance of the pomegranate, but he did not go up to the kang without looking at it, although there are two mattresses on the edge of the kang, but it is obviously the position of the old lady, and the junior is estimated to be rude to go straight up.

Pomegranate beckoned a little maid to serve a hot snack, confessed her guilt and continued to go in to wait for Zhang. Zhang is sitting on the dresser at the moment, wearing a royal blue brocade Ruyi moire home-style gown, festive for the New Year, and also wearing a Xuan Huang jacket skirt jacquard double-disc gold jacket skirt.

When the pomegranate came in, the various combs on the dresser were swinged, and Xin's mother was coiling the last strand of Zhang's hair into the bun with a pin, took the cherry and handed over a red gold dotted emerald comb grate and inserted it in the back of the head to press the bun, and then inserted two or three longevity heads, the golden hairpin with ruyi cloud pattern, which was neatly tied.

"Ah Xin's craftsmanship is still so good, these little girls, and the cherry still has your craftsmanship of seven or eight points!" Zhang stroked his smooth bun, looked at the spiritual face reflected in the bronze mirror, and praised with satisfaction. Then she asked, "Who's out there?" ”

"The fourth girl is here to greet you, it is estimated that the lady and the eldest girl, the second girl, and the third lady should be there soon!" Pomegranate smiled, and stepped forward to pick out some mutton fat paste with a silver hairpin to take over Zhang's hand work.

"There's still some courtesy!" Zhang's casual chin didn't let her bother in vain. For Fang Nian's cautious filial piety, he showed a satisfied gesture.

Zhang's was satisfied, and Xin's mother naturally said playfully: "That's it, the old lady is like a bodhisattva, the most charitable, the fourth girl is the granddaughter of the old lady, so she naturally understands the old lady's hard work!" ”

"It's snowing outside, and the wind is so strong at night, I don't know if Sicheng is good to walk on the road? How is Brother Rui's sister at night? Have you been frightened, I knew that there was such a snowstorm last night, I should have left the two of them in Rongyuan, I didn't see it with my own eyes, I was always relieved! Compared with Fang Nian, who came to random questions, what worried Zhang the most was the only only son, and the two young grandsons who were held in the palm of her hand and cherished like eyeballs.
