"Vanilla, if you chew the root of your tongue in front of me again, I will punish you to be a rough washing girl, and you won't have to serve in front of me in the future." When she said this, Chenxi was still smiling, but she was afraid that outsiders would hear it and think she was joking.

Vanilla knew that the eldest lady was definitely not joking, and she really didn't dare to say another word when she closed her mouth at the moment. Her body was constantly shaking, and she was really starting to get scared.

Even if the young lady was angry before, she had never said such a serious thing, could it be that she knew about it? also knew that she was too eager, and she couldn't interfere in too much of her master's affairs as a maid.

Or obediently do your duty, no matter what, the general's mansion is still in charge of the lady. With a lady here, the eldest lady's marriage will definitely be beautiful, and as long as she can serve her well and always be the eldest lady's personal maid, she will not have to worry about it for the rest of her life.

Dawn was originally going to go back to Dawn Garden to rest for a while, but today I had been bumpy in the carriage for most of the day, and I had to go to Liufuju to eat with the disgusting Jiang family of the general's father at night, and it was estimated that there was a tough battle to fight.

I thought about it for a while, but I couldn't help but fall in a direction and go in the direction of the backyard.

The backyard is far away from the main courtyard in front, and the people who live in it are the lowest people in the house, and after the second aunt decided to take the practice through the world, she found an empty room in the backyard to worship the Bodhisattva, and visited the temple in the morning and evening.

Because she was there, every time the general returned home, he would inevitably go over to visit.

Therefore, with the second aunt's backyard, it has become less important than ordinary people.

I don't know why, after seeing Sikong Liang return home, Dawn had such a strong idea: to go see his mother.

In the past, firstly, because the second aunt was concentrating on cultivating Buddhism and Xijing, she didn't want people to disturb her, and secondly, Dawn's temperament was too active, and she couldn't stand the boring and bitter face of facing the second aunt, plus someone who sowed discord, she never took this mother to heart.

The dawn of the reliving life began to understand many truths, especially when men only heard newcomers laughing, where could they hear the old people crying, when Wen Shiwei favored beauties and she was cold and suffered in the cold palace, she more or less began to understand the mentality of the second aunt.

If she is in that position, she may not be able to do better, it's not that her aunt doesn't love her, and her aunt can't help herself in many things. If it weren't for the second aunt's self-cultivation, with Jiang's vicious and forbearant nature, would there still be a place for the second aunt in the general's mansion?

So now Dawn is eager to see the second aunt, and she can finally understand that blood and family affection is the best relationship between people.

After all, the area of the General's Mansion is very large, and Dawn walked with the peony for almost half an hour before arriving at a quiet courtyard, which was where the second aunt lived. It's because she doesn't want to be watched all the time, early in the morning, she has already found an excuse to send Jiumei and Taro to do other things.

Different from the atmosphere and luxury of Liufuju, this is more like a family temple or a nunnery, the door of the small courtyard hangs a plaque of rosewood sculpture, on the book: quiet ancient house, the whole yard is made of wooden fences, through the fence, you can clearly see the scene in the yard, there are no flowers and green grass, a few self-cultivated vegetable fields, and some seasonal vegetables are planted.

Obviously, such a small courtyard is incompatible with the layout of the entire General's Mansion.

And looking at this humble little courtyard, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration in her heart, and she also admired and ptied her second aunt, she has lived in this place alone for more than ten years, but I'm afraid that in my heart, it is also extremely miserable, right?

"Auntie, the second lady has come to see you." The little maid beside the second aunt was obviously extremely happy, and after seeing the dawn, she actually forgot the etiquette rules, and shouted directly into the house.

Seeing the dawn, I couldn't help frowning, the second aunt didn't lose her hair and was not sent to the family temple for cultivation, she asked to pray for the people in the house. At the very least, living in such a place, the Jiang family should also send someone to serve, right?

The duties of the personal maid are very important, but looking at the reckless appearance of the little girl just now, she should not be very old in appearance, can she take good care of people?

Xianglan's young age doesn't mean that she doesn't know how to read words and feelings, and when she saw Dawn's cold face, she also understood it at the moment, and hurriedly bent down to make amends: "Second Miss, I'm sorry, it was the slave who was reckless just now." Slave, slave, slave is just too happy. ”

As she spoke, a pool of tears accidentally popped out of her eyes, but she was very sincere when she said this. Because she was stupid and incompetent, and her family couldn't do anything, she was sent to serve such an errand to serve the second aunt who was not powerful in the house.

And over the years that she has followed the second aunt, she has seen her aunt's lonely life little by little, and she is also very sympathetic to her, really, a poor woman.

On weekdays, don't say it's the master, even if it's her biological daughter, the second miss, she won't come to ask. According to the rules of the house, if the young lady does not come, the aunt cannot take the initiative to visit the young lady.

Dawn's brows finally stretched a lot, it seems that this girl has a little heart for her mother. Immediately, she glanced at the peony, and then walked into the only room in the small courtyard by herself.

Peony pulled Xianglan aside and spoke: "Xianglan, these days, the second aunt is still relying on you to take care of it." ”

As he spoke, he handed over a piece of broken silver, which weighed two or two. The first-class maid next to a young lady like Peony is only four taels per month, and two taels is already a lot for Xianglan.

This is also where Dawn is smart, too much reward for others may not dare to accept, but the effect of buying people's hearts with small favors is the best.

Sure enough, Xianglan just took the broken silver with a smile and a grateful look, "Where is it, it is my duty to take care of the master, and I hope to do it in the future."

My sister said a few kind words for me in front of the second lady. ”

After all, Peony and Xianglan are both maids in the house, although they are not on an errand in the same place, they are not without intersection on weekdays, and the two of them gather on the side to talk about it without mentioning it.

Here, after dawn entered the house, I saw a thin woman sitting quietly beside her, her eyes closed, her hands folded, and her mouth chanting. Seeing her now, Dawn couldn't help it, and tears appeared in her eyes.

The woman in front of her was dressed plainly and singlely, describing her withered face and bloodless, but in fact, she was only in her early thirties and was the person who was valued by the general, and she also knew by looking at her facial features and appearance that she must have been a great beauty back then, otherwise how could Sikong Liang ignore his wife and daughter, and must bring her back.

In this case, the two of them also have feelings, why did the second aunt make herself end up like this?
