Chapter Twenty-Nine: Passing the Word
Chapter Twenty-Nine: Communication
"Why is the red girl here?" Mama Zhou said with a smile while paying attention to the Liu family in the third room. Read the novel
Liuhong was surprised by Mama Zhou's loudness, but she didn't have any ideas. When she came, the young lady told her that she saw Mama Zhou, and she only had to say that she was here to find the third lady, and if Mama Zhou sent her out of the third room, she would tell her a word. Liuhong was very puzzled, thinking that it was impossible, Mama Zhou was the personal grandmother of the third lady, how could she send her? So I think that the sentence that Liu Qingsu asked her to say at the end didn't have a chance to say it, and she felt that that that sentence didn't seem to matter if it said anything about flowers blooming or not.
Liuhong said: "Mama Zhou is so angry, the slave maid came to see the third lady on the order of the young lady, one is grateful to the third lady for her love, and the other is that the third lady worked for a long time last time, our young lady said that she was embarrassed, and our young lady embroidered a purse a few days ago and wanted to ask the third lady to see." β
Mama Zhou didn't say anything when she heard it.
After a while, the two of them entered the house.
Liu actually heard the two of them talking in the house. Thinking that Liu Qingsu had no problem with her, but was very grateful, and looked like he wanted to be close, which made Liu's mood a lot happier. Liu's good impression of Liu Qingsu in his heart is also rubbing out.
"The slave maid left red to ask the third lady for peace." Liuhong entered the house and hurriedly asked the Liu family for peace.
"Get up. Look at the cleverness in our second girl's room, it looks like she is well-behaved. Mama Zhou will take two taels of silver to the red girl, and let the red girl buy some fat powder. A well-behaved girl should be dressed up beautifully. β
Mama Zhou replied: "The slave understands. β
If you don't want to stay red, you can ask for an extra reward of two taels of silver, which is the moon silver of a first-class maid in January.
"The third lady has won the award, but the three ladies are all capable and obedient. Our young lady said that the third lady was good in the courtyard. Slaves and maids should not be rewarded. Liuhong just said what Liu Qingsu said, she thought that Liu Qingsu did not go to the second room with the eldest master's mother, but went to the third room as a concubine, and the young lady should think that the third room is good.
Liu Shi was even more happy after hearing this: "You girl is humble, and if you say it to you, you are worthy of it." β
Liuhong didn't say much at the moment: "Thank you for the third lady's reward." β
Then Liuhong continued: "The third lady is a gentle and charitable, our young lady is very grateful to the third lady, and last time she also sent it to Mama Zhou in person, our young lady said that she was speechless, and she embroidered a purse in the past two days, and wanted to invite the third lady to see." β
After Liuhong finished speaking, she took out her purse, and Mama Zhou took it and handed it to Liu.
Liu took it and looked at it, and he liked it very much. I saw that the purse is made of good green silk cloth, and it feels soft in the hand, and the appearance of the purse resembles a lotus leaf curled up, along the bottom of the purse, a lotus flower quietly opens, and there is a branch next to the blooming lotus flower that is budding to be released, and the overall look is neither monotonous nor cumbersome. What makes Liu the most happy is that the lotus is Liu's favorite flower, and green is also her favorite color, otherwise the vernal equinox in her courtyard is not related to green. Liu Qingsu's purse really did what she wanted.
After reading it, Liu Shi took it in his hand and flipped it over again, and happily said to Mama Zhou, "Mama." You see what a clever mind this is, you can think of it thanks to Qingsu. "After saying that, I didn't even realize that our second girl had become an affectionate Qingsu.
Mama Zhou also thinks that the second lady's purse uses her thoughts, and this embroidery is also very good, the whole pattern is lifelike, and the whole purse does not look a little disobedient. I also came out of the palace, and I am afraid that few people can match this ingenuity.
Then Mama Zhou said: "Second Miss, this purse is really good. The old slave has never seen such a coincidental and good purse? β
Liu Shi knows the details of Mama Zhou, and when she heard it, she felt that her vision was also excellent, and with the purse made by Liu Qingsu, Liu felt that her favorite lotus flowers and green were the best, and she felt that her taste was also excellent.
Liuhong was also very happy when she listened to Liu's Mama Zhou's praise, and she naturally felt a sense of pride from the bottom of her heart. Liuhong didn't get carried away, and he still remembered Liu Qingsu's explanation.
"Our young lady said, if the third lady is satisfied, she will send the third lady to express her gratitude, the young lady said that the third lady is a talented, if there is a shortcoming, I also hope that the third lady will mention something, our young lady is grateful."
Liu had guessed that the purse was given to him before, and he really liked it when he saw the purse, but after all, he didn't say it clearly, so he couldn't speak. This time Liuhong spoke, and Liu's heart was even happier.
"You girls are just too polite, tell sΓΉ Qingsu, this purse is very good. I don't care if you girls are grateful or not, we are all from the same house, and we are also a family, and we are not so polite, and I also like the purse very much, so I accepted it unceremoniously. β
Liuhong hurriedly said: "If our young lady hears the words of the third lady, she will be very happy." Since the third lady is satisfied, then I should go back to our young lady to reply, so I won't bother the third lady too much. β
Liu said, "It's okay. At a glance, you know that you girls can't leave you. Let Qingsu come to Ningcui Courtyard to talk. β
Liuhong said: "The slave maid must know what the third lady said to our young lady." β
Mama Zhou also said: "The old slave sent the red girl." β
Liu also nodded busily. It seems that it was said that the reward for the red has not been given yet, so it is not surprising that Mama Zhou has such a statement.
Mama Zhou knew in her heart that she should go to get the silver after the Liu family finished rewarding the silver, but she still had something to say to Liuhong, so the Liu family was happy, but she didn't pay attention.
Mama Zhou: "Stay red girl wait for a while, the old slave will come when she goes." β
After a while, Mama Zhou came out and went to the gate of the courtyard with Liuhong.
"This is given to you by Madame, you take it." Mama Zhou gave Liuhong a small purse containing two taels of broken silver.
Liuhong didn't see Mama Zhou's action at first, and she had long thought that this was what Liu said casually. But now it's not, and as Miss expected, Mama Zhou still sent her out.
"Mama Zhou mentioned that the slave and maid thanked the third lady, and Mama Zhou also sent it off. Our girl said that the epiphany will bloom tomorrow, just waiting for someone to enjoy it. β
When Mama Zhou heard this, she understood in her heart.
Mama Zhou said: "The epiphany is extremely beautiful, and it is appreciated by others." β
After Liuhong said this, she said to Mama Zhou: "Then Mama Zhou will leave." β
Then one of them walked towards the leisurely house, while the other was silently meditating on the way.
