Chapter Thirty-Eight: Silver Butterfly
Yindie looked at the six roads, and when she saw Chunling leaving, she immediately picked a bed by the window. This bed is relatively hidden, and it is also closest to the dressing table, so it is more convenient to comb your hair or put things and miscellaneous items. It's just that she sat on the bed and took a closer look, and saw that the color of the futon and pillow looked old, so she was a little unhappy, and quietly glanced at Xianglan with her eyes, and saw that she was looking at the painting hanging on the wall, so she lightly hugged the quilt pillow on the bed and changed it on another bed.
Xianglan had already seen the small movements of the silver butterfly in her eyes, only pretending not to see, secretly shaking her head in her heart, and after looking at the room, she picked up a bed by the door, and opened the soft curtain, only to see that the bed was covered with a stone blue money python bedding, a jade-colored gauze pillow, and a half-used sachet embroidered with folded flowers next to the pillow, and put the medicinal materials that calmed the mind and dispelled the filth, and smelled it mixed with a jasmine aroma, Xianglan touched the tassel of the sachet and said: "The residence here is much stronger than Luo Xuewu, no wonder they say that the Lin family is a rich township, I think this house is stronger than the ordinary lady's embroidery room, and it is actually for the maid to live. ”
Yindie saw that the room was beautifully furnished, her eyes lit up with excitement, and she looked left and right in admiration, but when she heard Xianglan say this, she made a disdainful look and said, "What is this?" It's just a place for rough maids to live, and you are shocked like this, and when you see the main house where the masters live, your eyes will not fall...... It's no wonder that you used to serve Miss Cousin, but you have never seen a really rich house. ”
Xianglan frowned slightly, not wanting to argue with Yindie over trivial matters, so she simply pretended not to hear, and only untied the burden and took out the contents one by one.
Suddenly heard footsteps, Lin Jinlou lifted the curtain and came in, Xianglan and Yindie hurriedly stood up, standing with their hands down, a little cramped. Lin Jinlou's eyes swept away, and saw Xianglan standing by the bed, with low eyebrows and obedient appearance, he couldn't help laughing, he was born very handsome, this smile was shining, Yindie lifted her eyelids and looked at it a little dumbfounded, it was originally Chunyan was strict, as soon as Lin Jinlou came, all the maids were not allowed to come forward, usually far away, how could he have seen the master so closely, Yindie's face immediately turned red.
When Lin Jinlou saw Xianglan, his voice softened unconsciously, and said: "Don't be restrained, you will live here in the future, and serve the master well according to the rules, I will definitely be rewarded." ”
Xianglan was still hesitating, and Yindie had already responded crisply: "Uncle, don't worry, we will definitely serve Aunt Lan well, this is also our duty." ”
Lin Jinlou glanced at Yindie, nodded, and then looked at Xianglan, seeing that she was still buried in her head and motionless, and wanted to lead her to say a few words, but there were still others in the house.
At present, there is no one else in the house, and Xianglan has no heart to clean up. The events of this day made her physically and mentally exhausted, and she was spread out on the bed, unable to get up again. Thinking of being almost humiliated today, my legs are still a little trembling, and I hate and fear in my heart; Fang just performed in front of Mrs. Lin, and he exhausted his mental strength; Later, Cao Lihuan was expelled, and she went to Aunt Lan of Zhichun Pavilion to listen to the errand like a dream, and she was inexplicably promoted to the second class, and she was a little happy. This day was full of joy and sorrow, the incident happened suddenly and weirdly, Xianglan always had an inexplicable melancholy, but she was too tired at this time and didn't want to think about it anymore.
Yindie is in a very good mood, take out the things in the baggage the same, she is a self-cooked, there is a sentence in her mouth to ask Xianglan's family situation, I heard that her father is just a curio shop of the three shopkeepers, immediately took the value up, covered his mouth and smiled: "My father is the head of the second village of the Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing, as far as his identity is concerned, if he is an errand in the house, the size is also the identity of the second housekeeper, and the worst is also a deacon, and the uncle is very important to him...... My cousin Hanfang is on an errand in the room of the girl Aya, and she has a very head and face, which little girl can't respectfully call 'sister' when she sees it. ”
Xianglan was really impatient to hear her boast, and she didn't want to offend the other party, so she said "um" from time to time and didn't answer.
Yindie suddenly sighed: "I thought that I would be able to change my errand when Chunyan left, even if I could serve Miss, it would be a decent and long-faced errand." Who wants to serve their aunt...... Tsk, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to make a big difference in the future. ”
Xianglan leaned on the bed and said with a smile: "I'm content, it would be better if Aunt Lan had a more gentle temperament." ”
Yindie also comforted herself and said: "This is also true, I heard that Aunt Lan was personally raised by her wife, or from a good family, Chunyan is just a girl in the room, only occupies a room in the West Chamber, Aunt Lan is a serious aunt, she lives in the entire East Chamber, if she wins a man in one fell swoop this time, our days may be more beautiful than the one that Miss is waiting for." ”
Xianglan just smiled, not agreeing, but thought in her heart: "This is just a temporary place, to be a maid, no matter where the scenery can go, it is better to calm down and inquire and plan, and it is serious to get out of the country." ”
The two were speechless for a while. Yindie put away her things, and also lay down on the bed, tossing and turning, recalling that she had made silver for a long time, and the family entrusted her cousin Hanfang, and a mother-in-law with a head and face, and finally Chunling was relieved, took a golden hairpin, and lifted her from the rough tea room to Aunt Lan's room, she was still a little unhappy, but now she looks at it and is a little angry. Thinking of Lin Jinlou is handsome and extraordinary, tall and tall, noble and graceful, there is a smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows today, and he only feels that there is a little mouse scratching around in his heart, and he can't tell what it feels like, and he is a little ashamed to think about it. She couldn't lie down, so she couldn't help but speak: "Uncle smiled at us today, did you see it?" It's handsome. ”
Xianglan was half asleep, and replied in a daze: "It's really handsome, and it's only a beauty like grandma who is compatible with him." ”
Yindie recalled Zhao Yuechan's beautiful appearance and beautiful posture, and she was a little annoyed in her heart, and said: "Uncle and grandmother are very discordant, even if she is born beautiful, she will not please the uncle." ”
Xianglan said: "The Aunt Lan we are serving must be very popular with the uncle, and being pregnant can make the uncle happy like this, she must also be a beauty, and she will have to take a closer look later." ”
Silver Butterfly sneered: "No matter how beautiful she is, she is also an aunt." At the moment, the uncle is spoiling her, and I don't know when this favor will come. He softened his voice and said: "I think the uncle should find someone who is more clever and more intimate, even if it is a maid in the house, it is best to be able to do a good needlework, be able to make shoes and tailors for him, and be able to talk and coax him, so as to be more close to his heart." ”
Xianglan listened to Yindie's words more and more dislike, goosebumps rose all over, and when she came to her senses, her brain turned, and she realized it, and said with a secret smile: "I also said how she was interested, she had to talk to me, it turned out to be 'I can't ask for it, I can't think about it." Leisurely, tossing and turning'. After thinking about it, he said: "Grandma Hengzhi and Uncle are the head husband and wife, and the uncle is an aunt...... I'm afraid that some of them won't be able to lift their aunts. The girl who took the house from the uncle, which one carried the aunt? ”
Silver Butterfly's love was just beginning, full of thoughts, Xianglan's words shattered her dream, she turned over angrily and stopped talking.
Xianglan turned her face to the wall, listening to the lack of movement on the silver butterfly's end, she closed her eyes peacefully, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.
At one point, Chunling entered the house and said, "Grandma is back, let the two of you over." ”
Xianglan hurriedly got up and straightened her clothes and hair. Silver Butterfly was busy arranging her sideburns in the mirror, dipped some rouge and smeared it on her lips, but she felt that it was too glamorous, so she put the handkerchief on her lips and pressed it.
Chunling led the two of them into the side room.
There was a little juan and a mother-in-law standing in the house, and an eighteen or nineteen-year-old woman sat next to the case, because she was pregnant, her figure was plump, her black hair and snow skin, her long face and apricot eyes, although her appearance was not as gorgeous as Zhao Yuechan, but she was also a rare beauty, wearing a snow blue collar and blue plum dark satin facing the placket, only a golden hairpin on her head, an agate pendant hanging from her ears, a pair of jade bracelets on her hands, and no jewelry at all, looking extremely plain and simple. This person is Qinglan.
Chunling said: "Aunt Lan, these two maids are what I just said, one is called Xianglan and the other is called Yindie. ”
Yindie knew the look of her eyes very well, and immediately knelt down, and Xianglan also knelt down busily, and said, "Please aunt and grandma." ”
Qinglan said, "Get up." After looking carefully, I saw that these two people were born beautiful, and I felt a little uncomfortable, and I saw that the person named Xianglan was covered in old clothes, and only two white ropes were tied on his head to tie a bun and a white flower, and Yindie was wearing a new green silk dress, and his face seemed to be coated with grease powder, as if he had been carefully dressed. Xin said: "This pandan looks honest, and the silver butterfly is easy to dress up, I don't know if it's a safe place." He said, "Since you two are with me, as long as you obey the rules and serve well, you don't ask for much." ”
Chunling said: "Aunt Lan is the most generous and loving, and the two of you are blessed to follow her." ”
Xianglan looked at the room quietly, and saw that the east wing room was cleaned up, and the furnishings were gorgeous and luxurious, even the furnishings of the Qin family's room were nothing more than that. Xianglan felt unruly, frowned slightly, but then thought that Qinglan was married into a concubine with a good background, and her identity was different from that of the concubine next to her, and now she is pregnant, and her value is even different. But his eyes swept over a few expensive toys, and he felt that such a thing was too eye-catching on the bright side.
For a while, Qinglan was tired, and the people sent were scattered. Chunling brought Lan, Butterfly and Xiaojuan to the second room, and said: "My name is Chunling, I was originally a maid in the third wife's house, because Aunt Lan was pregnant, so I was assigned to serve here, and you can come to me if you have something in the future." Pointing to Xiaojuan, he said, "Her name is Xiaojuan, and she came a few days earlier." The mother-in-law in the house is surnamed Wu, you can call her Mother Wu. Then he explained the rules of service and arranged a few simple tasks. Ordered Yindie to make a sachet containing Ningshen medicinal materials, and ordered Xiaojuan to go out to water the flowers, and then make an embroidered handkerchief, and said to Xianglan: "You come with me." He led Xianglan into the bedroom where Qinglan lived.
