002 Sisters (1)
The lights of Baiyuan are lit up early, and the eldest lord Zhu Chengye is not confused when he is over the New Year, and he rests more in the outer courtyard than in the inner courtyard, usually only the eldest lady Qin and a few children are in Baiyuan. Just after Mao, Qin's mother Guo was standing under the eaves and was talking to a little maid, when she saw a few people coming over on the road that had not been cleaned.
The one who walked in front was wearing a red brocade fur cloak, followed by several maids wearing light pink satin cotton jackets that were uniform to the Zhu family's maids.
Mama Guo recognized that it was Qin's biological daughter who walked in front, Zhu Mingcan, the third lady of the Zhu family, and immediately walked down the steps to greet her.
"Third Miss, Madame just said that you should rest for a while, and it doesn't matter if you come later."
Zhu Mingcan is eleven years old this year, a standard Jiangnan billet, with willow eyebrows and apricot eyes, Qiong nose and cherry lips, gentle and delicate, but his face is a little pale with rouge. She contracted a cold two days ago, and she hasn't gotten better.
This dynasty is the most important filial piety, although she has a mother to protect her, but she can't be so willful, because the eldest sister's incident made her grandmother very unhappy, and her mother was embarrassed by her stepmother, and she shouldn't make trouble for her.
"Today is my grandmother's birthday, so I'm here to go with my mother." Zhu Mingcan coughed a little as he spoke.
Mama Guo hurriedly helped Zhu Mingcan to go in, and as soon as she entered the door, Qin's hair came out of the inner room before she was combed, touched Zhu Mingcan's hand and said distressedly: "Why don't you wear more if your body is not good, look at this cold hand, when it has just snowed and is cold, you want to come over so early, you are the meat that fell from my body, and I am willing to let you calm down in the morning and dusk." ”
Turning his head, he said to the maids Primrose and Sakura who came with Zhu Mingcan: "You don't know how to stop Miss." ”
Primrose and Cherry Blossom hurriedly confessed, but Zhu Mingcan couldn't look past it, took his mother's hand and said, "Mother, what do you blame them for, don't I hold the hand stove, where will my hands be cold." "My mother always felt that she would fall when the wind blew, and she was stopped from untying her cloak for the maid.
"Wear it a little longer, just come in, this cold and hot is the most unfavorable to your illness."
The Qin family dragged Zhu Mingcan into the inner room, still complaining that she shouldn't have come over so early, and that it was just a little later to say goodbye.
Hongsang continued to comb Qin's hair, Zhu Mingcan sat aside and chatted with Qin's about his dream of a big fairy palace last night, and Qin laughed while listening and saying that he had given birth to a silly girl.
The atmosphere was at the threshold of happiness, and the little maid outside came in to report that the eldest lady was coming.
Hearing the three words of the eldest lady, Qin's face immediately sank, and he said coldly: "Let her wait." ”
Zhu Mingcan sighed secretly and instructed the little maid, "Please wait for the eldest sister in the outhouse." ”
"I told her to wait outside." Qin insisted that the outside she was talking about was not the hall outside, but the courtyard.
"Mother, since they are all here, why do you have to be so stiff, how can you say that she is also your daughter." Zhu Mingcan persuaded that although she couldn't figure out how she came, every time she and her mother met, it was not so pleasant.
"I'm not as ruthless as her daughter." Qin Shi was even more unhappy, it was okay not to say this, but she was angry when she said it.
The Qin family comes from the wealthy Qin family in the south of the Yangtze River, and the Qin family is also a famous imperial businessman, and the foundation is much deeper than that of the Zhu family. There is a shrewd and powerful mother-in-law above, not to mention, there is also a daughter left by the original match, and her back is against the mountain of Hengwang Mansion, so what should she do?
This child is even more unconscious, she has been lawless since she was a child, and when she grows up, she doesn't take her stepmother seriously, but even her mother-in-law and husband are respectful, and she naturally won't trouble her.
But she didn't go to the mountain, but the mountain came to her, from the time the girl was sensible, she suffered a lot under her, even her own children Can'er and Kun'er were not less angry with her, but so what, who dared to teach her a lesson?
Let's not talk about this, after a few more years, she will get married, and if she wants to come back, it depends on her willingness to be a housewife.
But this time she was just too much!
On her mother-in-law's 60th birthday, her mother-in-law sent her own brother from the same mother to celebrate her birthday, not only bringing her brother's eldest son but also her nineteenth brother. He is the youngest son of the current head of the Qin family, although he is the same age as her, but the age difference is more than ten years, although his mother-in-law did this because of her status in the Zhu family and the increasing prosperity of the Zhu family, but it also gave her a lot of face.
But that dead girl actually injured the nineteenth brother, I don't know what will happen to my mother-in-law when she finds out, she is far away, but her brother wants to continue to live in the Qin family, she is really angry.
After waiting for a while, seeing that the little maid didn't dare to stand there, Zhu Mingcan understood that she wouldn't listen to anything she said to her mother now, but at least she couldn't make things embarrassing, so she got up silently and prepared to go out.
Seeing her like this, although Qin was on fire in his heart, he couldn't have a seizure with his daughter, so he could only hold Zhu Mingcan's hand and tell the little maid to invite the eldest lady in.
Zhu Mingcan looked at Qin's helpless and pitiful gaze, snuggled up with a smile and said, "Mother always loves her daughter the most." ”
Qin looked at his daughter's well-behaved and sensible appearance, a little sad, touched her head and said: "You child, you have not been in good health since you were a child, but you have a delicate heart, you can rest assured, your mother is measured, as long as you are a good mother, you will be content." ”
Zhu Mingyu stood in the yard admiring the blooming plums, and when he saw the suppressed buds, he went to sweep away the snow, and his leisurely appearance made Kapok a little incomprehensible.
Their young lady has always hated the people of Baiyuan, there is no need to never come, even if it is necessary, it will not be able to push, how can she suddenly want to come here today, and wait patiently in the yard, it doesn't look like she is looking for trouble, this is really not like her style......
But since Miss has to wait, then she will follow, and although she can't agree with Miss's behavior, she can't stop it.
Different from Kapok's silence, the hibiscus who also came with her seemed a little impatient Hibiscus is the same age as Zhu Mingyu, she grew up with Zhu Mingyu, and even her personality has learned a few things, Zhu Mingyu is angry, she is also like thunder, Zhu Mingyu is yin, she is not soft to be an accomplice.
Seeing that she had waited for the little maid to go in for a while and hadn't come out for a while, there were still some maids around who looked at a few of them, standing in the snow and her feet were soon cold, she couldn't hold her breath, walked to Zhu Mingyu's side and muttered: "Miss, they are so sloppy, they obviously don't take you seriously." ”
Zhu Mingyu was feeling comfortable all over the body at this time, coming out of the stuffy conservatory, how comfortable it was to breathe in the fresh cold air, and it was even more interesting to look at the white snow and red plums.
She didn't care when she heard Hibiscus's words, and nodded absentmindedly "um".
However, the hibiscus who got this sound seemed to hear the horn of battle, grabbed a little maid passing by and said loudly: "I don't know how to salute when I see the eldest lady here, and you have learned all the rules in the dog's belly?" ”
The little maid was stunned by the hibiscus, and saw that the eldest lady standing next to her was not the eldest lady that everyone was afraid of, so she hurriedly saluted tremblingly, and said in a trembling voice: "Slave, I've seen the eldest lady, the eldest lady." ”
"What is this called? The knees are not bent, the position of the hands is not right, and the stammering, such a small voice are you a cat? You're not really a stammer, are you? Get home before it's too late! Mu Hibiscus didn't wait for the little maid to get up, and he didn't wait for Zhu Mingyu to speak, so he began to grasp the little maid's mistakes and teach her a lesson mercilessly.
Kapok stood aside and was not surprised, but lowered his head slightly, and the other maids and women did not dare to probe out when they saw this, and only the sound of hibiscus was heard in the courtyard for a while.
Zhu Mingyu frowned a little when she heard this, this girl is too familiar with the fake tiger power.
Before she could stop Mu Hibiscus, the Qin family and Guo's mother in the main room came out, and Zhu Mingcan was forced by the Qin family to stay in the house and not allowed to come out.
"The eldest lady is so magnificent, even the maids around her are sharp-toothed and sharp-mouthed."
The Qin family had listened to Zhu Mingcan's persuasion, and had already asked people to invite Zhu Mingyu in, but the little maid was noisy before she went out, and the fire that had just been suppressed rose again, ignoring Zhu Mingcan's persuasion and coming out.
She is also the wife of the Zhu family, she wants to ask Miss Zhu if she takes her as a housewife in her eyes.
When Zhu Mingyu saw it, he immediately signaled Mu Hibiscus to shut up, let the little maid who was scared enough to choke and half-squatting get up, and then walked over to give the Qin family a standard salute, and said, "Madame, I didn't discipline the maid well." ”
The tone is sincere, the attitude is sincere, and the demeanor is elegant.
Zhu Mingyu of the Qin family looked at Zhu Mingyu with a ghostly expression: Is this her? Fell and gave it a wrestling? Why didn't you fall earlier......
Not only the Qin family, but all the people in the courtyard, as long as they knew Zhu Mingyu, felt unbelievable.
Kapok continued to bow her head and be silent, but with a smile on her face, Miss may have really grown up.
Hibiscus looked at Zhu Mingyu and opened her mouth to say something, but was pushed back by her eyes. Although the young lady is irritable and irritable, she is always aimed at others, and she has never spoken harshly to herself......
For a while, the courtyard was very quiet, and it seemed that the sound of plum blossoms could be heard.
"Mother, eldest sister, it's cold outside, come in quickly."
Zhu Mingcan appeared under the eaves to break the deadlock.
Zhu Mingyu reacted the fastest and said with a smile: "Thank you, third sister, I really feel a little cold when you say it." ”
Kapok looked at the cloak in his hand, and secretly slandered, who just said that it was hot, and he untied the cloak that he had to put on her halfway through......
The Qin family was a little embarrassed, because he stared at Zhu Mingyu and looked into a daze, and then saw his daughter come out, and was a little annoyed: "You kid, why are you so disobedient, you don't go in, what if you freeze again, and you don't know how to put on a cloak." ”
The Qin clan chattered and pulled Zhu Mingcan and walked in quickly.
Seeing that the Qin clan moved, Zhu Mingyu also followed behind, Kapok himself followed, and Hibiscus bit his lip and followed in.
A gust of wind passed, and the plum blossoms that had been dusted off by Zhu Mingyu just now were covered with a layer of white.
