Chapter 199: Pondering Carefully - The Way Back
Ji Qian took Ling'er's master and servant back to the Xiangfu and sent them directly into the courtyard where the Liu family lived, which surprised Ling'er very much, why is this arrangement.
But after all, she is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she slowly walked around in this huge yard, and all kinds of flowers and plants were carefully watched, and she couldn't hide her novelty and liking. There are still words in his mouth, "Sure enough, they are all excellent things, my father loves his daughter the most, I am not mistaken, they still don't believe it." ”
Ji Qian heard Ling'er praise himself as a good father, and he also felt proud, shaking his head as if he wanted to express some feelings.
Ling'er suddenly shouted again: "But this is not my residence, I don't want to live here, I want to go back." After speaking, he symbolically wiped his eyes and tears, crying very sad and childish.
Ji Qian didn't care about her, just now he still had a fatherly expression, pulled down his face at this moment, and snorted coldly: "Don't mess around, you can live wherever you want, and break your legs if you make trouble!" ”
"Master, Master, my father is going to break my leg, your old man is coming to save me!" Ling'er's shout didn't matter, the two brothers Zilin and Zishan were very uneasy since they beat their junior sister and went out, so they followed over, and at this time, listening to Ling'er's shouting, they couldn't care so much, and they both jumped in from outside the wall, clenching their fists in front of Ling'er.
When Ji Qian saw this situation, he was startled at first, and then he saw who the person was, and his old eyes glared, "The old man respects your master, and he is also a virtuous and respected person who has a good life in the rivers and lakes, why is the apprentice who taught him so uneducated, and he has to hand over the private house to the government." ”
Zishan snorted for a while and didn't know how to respond, Zilin was articulate, and Chong Ji Qian was happy, "What Xiangye said is that my master and his old man are not convinced, but what your old man said is not right, famous teachers produce high apprentices, and my senior brother and I are naturally good." As for the presumptuous intrusion, the road was uneven and drew a knife to help, not to mention that our little junior sister called for help. Here the juniors dare to ask Xiangye. Why did he let his daughter cry so much at home? ”
Looking at Ling'er again, it was already pear blossoms with rain at this time, and it was pitiful to cry, and at this time she deliberately moved closer to Zishan. Looking at Ji Qian's eyes, his eyes were full of horror, and he was pitiful.
Ji Qian was speechless, turned around with a long sigh and slammed the door, leaving only a few brothers and sisters standing in the courtyard.
Ling'er watched the person walk away and breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you, two senior brothers, you came here today in a really timely manner, otherwise I wouldn't have any good fruit to eat."
"I know, you're still making trouble and coming back, and it's hard to go back now, but if the senior sister really wants to leave here, the senior brothers will naturally help you find a way."
Ling'er sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, "I won't go back, I still have important things to do." Zishan looked at his junior sister, and there was a faint sadness on the quiet Ling'er. This made him very distressed, but more helpless.
"Miss, everything has been brought here, the slave and maid will go and arrange it, and you should rest." Qingxi entered the door with a big burden from outside the door, but saw Zishan and Zilin also standing in the courtyard, so wondering, when did the two of them run in, since I didn't see it in front.
"It's all mentioned that Lingxi Courtyard, that is our real home. Here, it's still reserved for those who want to live. Ling'er stood up and left without a trace of nostalgia.
Fortunately, the Lingxi Courtyard is small, and the three of them are familiar with each other. It took only half an hour to clean up. Qingxi and Nuo'er were busy going out to wash and boil some boiling water, while Ling'er was alone in the room and slowly looking. When I first crossed here, I tried to find a way back, but I didn't succeed, and then I met Ah Heng and I began to be nostalgic for him. He completely lost his mind to go back, even if he imprisoned himself that time, he actually still had some thoughts, and now it's stupid to think about it, this time he has no way out anyway. I must go back and be with my parents, mothers and sisters, that is the most correct choice for me.
"What are you looking at, Miss? If something doesn't suit your mind, you just tell the maid to do it. Qingxi, who was already tired and sweating profusely, came in with tea, and couldn't help but ask when she saw the young lady thoughtfully groping around.
"Xi'er, you sit down and tell me how the eldest lady pushed me down the stairs in the first place, be more detailed."
Qingxi was stunned, Miss has asked about this matter many times, why did she mention this matter again today. Then he sat down and talked about the past slowly, pointing outside as he spoke, "Since you fell down, the master has ordered the family to dismantle it, haven't you asked a few times?" ”
Ling'er sighed faintly, this is the crux of the matter, without the original staircase, even if you do it again, can it still have that effect? But no matter what, this time I will try it myself, "Go and take a hundred taels of silver in the drawer, find a craftsman and make it according to what you saw it before, remember, it is incomparably the same." ”
Qingxi thought for a while, "It's no problem to make another ladder, but it's bound to attract tongues, so what if the old man asks?" ”
Ling'er pondered for a moment, after all, this is not where he lived before, although it is not his own home, but he does everything casually, and now that he is really back, he has to be bound by others in everything. It seems that this is not a place for them to stay for a long time after all, no matter what kind of reprimand, they don't dare to do anything to themselves, with Master and Wang Jiuye here, they still have to give a few thin noodles.
"Let's just say that Miss is not good at my brain now, so I remember that the ladder can see the scenery outside, and I want to play there."
Qingxi went out to do errands as instructed, and Nuo'er came in to see Miss and knew that it was not so simple, but depending on the situation, even if she asked Miss, she wouldn't say, so she had to put the snack away.
"Nuo'er, look at how much silver we have, you put it away, if one day I'm gone, you must protect Dian Qingxi, she has been with me since she was a child, and I am the only one in my eyes, I'm afraid that people around will not tolerate her."
When Nuo'er heard Miss say this, she was shocked, she had been adrift and lonely since she was a child, and she was bullied by the eyes of others, and only after following Miss did she live a normal life. The young lady has never called herself as a maid, she doesn't say anything about beating and scolding, and she doesn't say a word to herself, where else can she find such a master in the world. It's just that now when I say goodbye, I am even sadder than I think of my parents, and I can't help but tears are about to fall.
"There is no banquet in the world, I am not a person from this world, but I just fell into this place occasionally, and now it is time to go back after seeing the warmth and coldness of the world." Ling'er said lightly as she walked, went into the inner room and lay down to think about her mind alone.
Leaving Nuo'er alone, she looked at the back of the young lady as if she didn't understand. The day that should have come has finally come, Miss is by no means a mortal, she should have seen it a long time ago, it seems that she should not be sad. Or help the young lady find her way back.
The craftsmen were quickly found, and because of the good pay, those people naturally spared no effort to work day and night. This is a bitter pain for some of the domestic servants who live in the surrounding area and the two concubines that Ji Qian recently married. These two concubines are all good-looking young girls found by Ji Qian to the people, and they were cut off from their families by giving them some silver. It was originally a small family, and when I heard that the buyer was a member of the imperial court, he naturally would not be in vain, and he thought that his daughter would be happy to go, so it would be more stable, which was also an idea that Ji Qian came up with in order to save worry.
The domestic servants are okay, after all, they dare not speak out, but the two concubines do not stop. They didn't have much status in the family in the past, but looking at their father's and brother's faces, they were still alive, and now they don't know how tall and big they are. No, I find fault with people everywhere, and it's normal to beat and scold girls twice in three days. Aunt Sun, who stayed up all night, cried and cried in the yard at dawn, crying and howling wolves, shouting that her life was not good. Aunt Hu, who is separated by a wall, knows what she is doing, but she is more attentive than Aunt Sun, and generally does not want to cause trouble, so she can endure it, but this does not mean that she is a fuel-efficient lamp.
"Sister, what's wrong? Crying like this, if the lord sees it, he should be distressed again, hurry up and go in and sit. "What Aunt Hu said is reasonable, especially in line with Aunt Sun's thoughts.
The little girls watched their masters finally stop making trouble. Hurriedly sent the soothing soup to the front and stood with his hands tied.
Unexpectedly, this Aunt Sun was talking to Aunt Hu, and she accidentally spilled the soup on her clothes, which added fuel to the fire. She was already angry, and she couldn't wait to step forward and tear that girl apart at this moment. Fortunately, she was pulled by Aunt Hu, and the little girl was able to survive, but she didn't want Aunt Sun to see the tea cup on the table, so she reached out and threw it out, but who wanted it to fall on Aunt Hu's head. Aunt Hu immediately said, "Ah! A scream. When everyone saw it, blood was pouring out.
There was a lot of commotion in the house, and Mrs. Wang walked in accompanied by the maid, and drank categorically, "It's all something, it doesn't stop early in the morning, when will it be your turn to shout in the Prime Minister's Mansion, why don't you all go back to your room!" ”
Everyone was stupid at the local level, Aunt Sun was so frightened when she saw that Mrs. didn't dare to say a word, Aunt Hu just wanted to speak, and she didn't have the strength at the moment, holding the girl's shoulder and shaking it, she was about to fall.
"Help Aunt Hu go back to her room, if I find out that anyone has nothing to do in the future, I will beat them out one by one, don't rely on the lord to spoil you and act recklessly, you must know who is in charge of the backyard of this prime minister's house." After speaking, he swept everyone again and left majestically.
"Mother, I heard that you went to teach those two aunts a lesson early this morning, why bother, in case they blow the wind on the pillow, I don't let my father not wait to see your old man." Ji Feng, who is already married to a wife, is still the soft and glutinous intestines, but he is more thoughtful.
"You don't know when I don't know, I don't sleep for no reason, go and see that cheap maid, you want Ling'er to come back this time and do whatever you want to do, who said a "no" word, they don't know what to do, I just borrow flowers to offer Buddha, after all, it is not harmful for us to have a good relationship with that girl. “
Ji Feng thought about it for a while, and her mother's words were not unreasonable, "My daughter hasn't seen her sister for a long time, so why don't I go to visit her today, although she has a willful temper, her heart is still good, and her daughter wants to come to this mansion and she is the most comfortable to live." ”
Mrs. Wang looked at her daughter, and couldn't help but feel a little blocked in her heart, she was such a precious girl, she finally got to the position of Mrs. Xiangfu after her hard work, thinking about finding a marriage for her to be a small official eunuch, how much she can control, and her daughter will not be too angry with her mother-in-law. Who would have thought that the person who married was not bad, and the son-in-law's character was also excellent, who knew that the daughter's life was thin, and the son-in-law had tuberculosis in the past three months of marriage, and now it is only a day at a time. Seeing that her daughter has only been married for a year, she has already boiled out a yellow-faced woman, and she always looks really sincere.
"That's fine, my mother also wants to go and see her, but Feng'er, you have your mother, don't envy her."
Ji Feng looked at his mother's caring eyes, moved in his heart, and turned his head to hide his tears, "Don't say it, it's not early, don't delay the second sister's business." ”
Ling'er has nothing to do these days, except for going to the construction site to wander around, the rest is to stay in the room and think hard, and read the five elements gossip, astronomy and geography books over and over again. Nuo'er and Qingxi didn't bother, they just went to have nothing to say, or Qingxi thought of a way to make Miss happy, Ling'er also looked at it expressionlessly, and finally Qingxi felt that it was particularly fun and had to hold back by herself. The two girls turned around with sorrow, and the two took turns looking at the young lady, afraid that her kung fu would disappear in the blink of an eye.
"Where is the second sister? My mother and I came over to take a look. Ji Feng and Mrs. Wang didn't bring the maidservants with them, the two of them helped them to the door, knocked on the door softly and asked.
Nuo'er hurriedly greeted her, "The third lady and Mrs. are here, please sit inside, my young lady is stuffy in the house, you came just in time, talk more with you." ”
Ling'er heard the sound of talking in the room, and couldn't help frowning, these two girls are used to running and jumping crazy and laughing, but now that they have settled down, they are all kinds of unsteady, and they have nothing to do.
When the two of them entered the house, Ling'er politely got up to greet them, and the three of them sat down around the table.
"The second sister is still the same as at the beginning, round and mellow, no wonder I just came, my mother pulled me and said that I wanted to come and see you, it seems that her old man now sees you heavier than my daughter." A few of the words laughed, and Wang touched Ling'er's little hand at the right time, looking loving.
"I don't worry about it, I don't work hard, one person eats enough and the whole family is not hungry, so I naturally grow well, not to mention that there are two girls who are afraid that I will eat less every day, and all kinds of chasing and intercepting. I see that you have lost a lot of weight when you look at your sister, and if you are satisfied with it, you can take one of them with you, so that they will not have to conspire with me every day. Ling'er teased casually, not forgetting to avenge the disobedience of the two girls for letting people in.
Nuo'er was okay, but Qingxi couldn't hear this, so he stomped his feet and ran out, causing Ji Feng to shout from behind, "Remember to go with Miss San and me later, I heard that your skills are good." ”
Wang looked at his daughter who had a rare smile and actually made a joke, she was in a good mood, and her eyes couldn't leave her poor girl for a while.
Ling'er took in the scene and knew that Ji Feng's appearance must have something else hidden, but this was all other people's housework, and she couldn't take care of it, and she didn't bother to ask. (To be continued.) )
