Chapter 15: Liu's Scheme
The sky was getting dark, and the red sleeves stood tremblingly in the aisle outside the Lanxiang Pavilion, waiting anxiously while dodging the passers-by. I don't know how long it took, but when she was finally discouraged and discouraged, a figure suddenly walked towards her. She was overjoyed that she had finally arrived. "Mother Yang" was about to shout, but she saw that the person who came was not enough, and it was obviously not the person she was waiting for. She wanted to dodge, but it was too late. It was a little girl who didn't keep her head, and said to her directly: "It's late now, go back to the garden early tomorrow morning!" After saying that, he pedaled and ran away. Obviously, it was Yang's mother who brought a message, knowing that today was hopeless, so she walked back dejectedly.
Red Sleeves was originally a girl next to his wife, and she grew up with Duanqin and Duanxiu. At the beginning, she was a second-class girl next to her wife, and her appearance was slightly better than that of Duanqin Duanxiu, but her temperament was far less stable than that of those two girls. has always been smart and exposed, and he must be strong everywhere. After Aunt Liu entered the door, she was recommended by Mother Yang to Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. gave it to Aunt Liu. At the beginning, she was promoted from a second-class girl to a first-class girl, and Red Sleeves was happy for a long time. Aunt Liu was quite polite to her at first, because she took care of her wife's face, and she didn't beat or scold like now. It's just that as time goes by, Aunt Liu's status in Master Gao's mind is getting higher and higher, and she is becoming more and more neglected. However, Aunt Liu's reward has always been generous. She can still go over with her careful. The most bitter thing is that now, Aunt Liu doesn't dare to argue with her wife in the open, but she scolds herself every day to get angry. The old man doesn't want to see Aunt Liu now, and her private money is naturally a lot less, so Red Sleeves can no longer get any reward. In the past, she often showed how beautiful she was and how many chic little jewelry she had in front of a group of little girls, but now she is disgraced and often ridiculed. This kind of day makes her feel very painful. Lu Yi and Red Peony successfully got out of Shen Rong's side, which made her feel as if she had seen a glimmer of hope. But there is no chance. Fighting to the death like Green Yi, she doesn't have the courage. But now, it seems that the opportunity is just around the corner. On that day, she went with Aunt Liu to her wife to copy the scriptures and met Mother Yang. Taking advantage of Aunt Liu's unpreparedness, she chatted with Mother Yang about family life, and talked about what happened to Aunt Liu, Mother Yang sympathized with her in every way, and was even more indignant, promising that she would intercede in front of her wife and transfer her away from Aunt Liu's side. So Red Sleeves was overjoyed, today was the day when Yang's mother promised her to come and meet, but she didn't want to, and it was delayed until tomorrow. Maybe I came too late. But almost all the chores in Aunt Liu's place are done by her now, and she really can't do it sooner. Since Mother Yang has made an appointment for tomorrow morning, she will go in the morning when she picks flowers for Aunt Liu.
It's not early, and if it's too late, the gate in the yard will be locked. Red Sleeves didn't dare to delay any longer, quickened his pace, hurried slowly, and finally rushed back before Aunt Liu's Jinxin Courtyard closed. The mother-in-law who was guarding the door was about to close the door, and when she saw her, she recited a Buddha and said, "The girl is back, but the aunt is easy to find." Get on board! Hearing that Aunt Liu was looking for her, Red Sleeves was startled, and she didn't know what kind of punishment was waiting for her, but she didn't dare not go, so she had to go in trembling. The room was different from the darkness of the past, and today Aunt Liu's interest seemed to be very high, and she ordered several lamps to be lit, and the room was bright. saw Red Sleeves come in, but it was unusually unusually not scolded. Instead, he looked her up and down carefully. Red Sleeves was furious by her, but she smiled. Red Sleeves lowered his head, didn't dare to speak, and pulled his hands tightly in his sleeves. Suddenly, I heard Aunt Liu's voice: "Red Sleeves, how old are you this year?" "Aunt Hui, the slave maid is seventeenth year old." There was a trilling in Redsleeves' voice. "Well, seventeen years old, you can also match people. It's annoying to look at your little appearance! "Matching? Isn't my aunt going to send herself out? Although she wants to go out, if she is indiscriminately matched by Aunt Liu, won't her life be over? Because Red Sleeves is outstanding, there are already several families who have children who have come to Red Sleeves' mother to find out. However, Aunt Liu didn't let go, and the family members of the red sleeves naturally had nothing to say. However, the grandmother on the second door seems to have a great relationship with Qinglian next to Aunt Liu. Her son Sun Erniu is lazy to eat, relying on his father and mother to have some face in front of the master, and he is often idle, and now he has entrusted someone and has been following the second young master outside. He had seen Redsleeves once, but when he saw them, his face was dull and his eyes were shining. This kind of expression, red sleeves have seen a lot. Nature knows the meaning behind it. It can't be him, right? Red Sleeves' heart was drumming. But I heard Aunt Liu's voice slowly burrowing into my ears: "The eldest young master has to go to the back garden every morning to read in the morning." Don't you have to pick flowers every day? Drop by. If you close the eyes of the eldest young master, it will be a great blessing for you! Redsleeves' face turned red instantly. Who is my aunt talking about? It's actually the eldest young master? In front of her, a heroic, elegant and gentle young man couldn't help but appear. The eldest young master not only looks good, but also reads well. has always been gentle and polite to them. is the object of their little girl's private admiration. However, they are just thinking about it in their hearts. The eldest young master and himself, that is the difference between heaven and earth. Besides, there is a young grandmother, who is a standard beauty. Only a fairy-like character like a young grandmother is worthy of the eldest young master, right? Now Aunt Liu actually asked her to go to the eldest young master? If his wife knows about it, he is afraid that he will not be able to escape death. Thinking of that dead word, Red Sleeves couldn't help but gasp, knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, and said, "The slave doesn't dare!" Aunt Liu snorted coldly and said, "What don't you dare?" Didn't you want to leave me for a long time? Tell you, it's easy to get out of here. Or, you have fallen into the eyes of the eldest young master, and you will be your half master in a beautiful way. Or, Sun Erniu of the grandmother's family has been in love with you for a long time, and I can be a favor. Sure enough, it was Sun Erniu, and Red Sleeves only felt as if he had been beaten all of a sudden. But I heard Aunt Liu slow down her tone again, and said, "Red sleeves, if you calculate it carefully, you have been by my side for seven years, right?" You are the person my wife gave me, but I have always treated you like an eyeball. Look at the girls in the yard, how many of them are better than you? If you marry that Sun Erniu, wouldn't you be doing it? I think you should be the blessed life. We women, we can't choose our background, we can't choose for life, and we have to have others to decide everything, isn't it too wrong? If you go out and fight, maybe everything can be different. Now I've given you the opportunity to master it, but it's all up to you. Don't look at the young grandmother, it's been almost two years since I got married, and there is no movement in my stomach. What does this mean? It shows that the eldest young master's heart is not necessarily in her. If you can win the favor of the eldest young master and become a man in one fell swoop, not to mention the wife, even the master, you will also be regarded as a hero of our family. "Is that really the case? Red Sleeves was full of suspicion, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Qingyun who was standing beside Aunt Liu. Miss Qingyun's appearance is also very good. Aunt Liu seemed to see her thoughts, and said, "Qingyun is a little older. Otherwise, how could such a good thing be your turn? Redsleeves was skeptical. Aunt Liu instructed Qingyun again: "Go, bring the new materials I bought yesterday, and let the red-sleeved girl pick a few." He personally opened the makeup box, took out a set of red-sleeved Su Xi's hot head, and handed it to her, "Take it, this is my reward for you." Redsleeves could hardly believe it was true, and took it tremblingly. For a while, it seemed to be in the clouds, and he picked up two sets of clothes with Qingyun. These things are things that she usually can't think of. It's all hers. Back in his room, Redsleeves calmed down from the unexpected surprise. If it weren't for the eldest young master, she would marry Sun Erniu. What is Sun Erniu? A rough embryo! However, the eldest young master, who has always been polite, will he take a fancy to himself? I'm just a little girl. Except for the few gestures that God gave him, he has nothing. I took the worn-out prism mirror on the table, and what was reflected in it was a plain and delicate face. If the young grandmother is the peony of the country, herself, at best, is even a small rose in the corner of the eaves in front of the eaves, right? Why be less than a grandmother? Redsleeves' face turned red. I don't know when, she fell asleep.
