Jinyi was strange, and felt as if she saw something behind her, so she turned her head. But he saw that the housekeeper was standing there with her waist pinched, staring at the two of them. Jin Yi looked at the angry look on her face, thinking that she probably blamed herself for chatting when the two of them were working, so she stopped talking and lowered her head to work.
But he said that Du Yunhe came to Ninghui Courtyard in the afternoon, but when he heard that Jinyi was no longer there, he was startled and asked urgently, "Where is it?" ”
Jin Fei looked at Du Yunhe's anxious and angry look, and said carefully: "Jin Yi only said that it was in the front yard, presumably in the courtyard where the laundry was washed, right?" ”
Du Yunhe was angry and anxious, took Jinqing out of the second door, came to the front, asked the location of the little guy, and came to the pulp washing place. As soon as I entered, I saw Jinyi sitting there, bending over and rubbing his clothes vigorously.
"Brocade."
Jinyi was trying hard to wash her clothes, and the sound of washing her clothes was quite loud when she scrubbed them, so when she heard someone shouting, she just subconsciously raised her head and turned to look. Unexpectedly, it was Du Yunhe who she saw, and she shouted in surprise: "Second Young Master." ”
Du Yunhe had already walked towards her, Jinyi quickly stood up, in a hurry, she only felt a pain in her shoulders and waist, and almost fell, but fortunately she was grabbed by Du Yunhe and helped her.
She only felt that her two arms were sore, and she felt almost unconscious, it was not her own arm, but she couldn't care about the pain right now, and when she saw Du Yunhe, she hurriedly asked, "Second Young Master, why did you come here?" ”
Du Yunhe stabilized the brocade clothes. He let go of his hand, and when he saw her sinful appearance, his heart ached, and he said, "When the eldest brother left, he asked me to protect you, but I failed to do it and made you suffer." As he spoke, he glanced around, wanting to see what the hell this place was, but he saw that many girls were looking at him timidly, and they forgot to come and say goodbye. When the housekeeper saw it, she hurriedly went over to greet Du Yunhe.
Du Yunhe didn't pay attention to her, turned his head to look at Jinyi and said, "I didn't expect my eldest brother to leave." My wife actually relegated you to such a place. ”
"I'm fine, it's just that Second Young Master, why did you come here, if you let my wife know. I'm afraid it's not good. Jinyi said.
"Humph! It's infuriating! I'm going to ask my wife why you were kicked out of Ninghui Courtyard. Du Yunhe raised his anger and turned around to leave.
"Second Young Master......" Jinyi hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Don't be like this." I'm just a girl, and my wife naturally has the right to arrange it. Don't ask your wife. ”
"Do you want me to watch you suffer here?" Du Yun and Dao.
"I'm not hard." Jin Yi persuaded. "Since my wife has sent me here, you can let me work here in peace."
"Then what should I do if my eldest brother can't see you when he comes back?" Du Yun and Dao.
When Jin Yi heard him talk about Du Yunke, she lowered her eyes, was silent for a moment, and said sadly: "I'm just a maidservant, and I shouldn't have had extravagant hopes in the first place." ”
Du Yunhe frowned and looked at her. No more talking, turned and left. After entering the second gate, Jin Qing followed him closely. Seeing that his steps were getting anxious, he guessed that he must be going to Rongshu Academy, and in a hurry, he hurriedly pulled a handful and said, "Second Young Master, what's the use of you going to see your wife now?" You can even question your wife to your face. It doesn't help. After all, Jinyi has nothing to do with our Brocade Courtyard now, what reason does the second young master have to speak for her? ”
"I don't care!" Duyun and airways. "I must ask my wife, what did Jinyi do wrong, and she wanted to send people like this? If you punish your subordinates, you have to tell a name. ”
"Second young master, you can bear with it first." Seeing that he didn't listen, Jin Qing turned around and was about to leave, and persuaded bitterly, "I know that it's useless to go to see my wife, so why bother?" After all, only the eldest young master can talk about the matter of brocade, so let's wait for the eldest young master to come back! ”
Du Yunhe gritted his teeth and stood for a long time, glanced at Jin Qing again, and finally said, "Okay, then bear with me first, and wait for the eldest brother to come back." After saying that, he went back to the brocade courtyard with hatred.
Early the next morning, the housekeeper entered the girls' room and said to the girls who were getting up, "You don't need to clean up the bedding or anything." ”
The girls were wondering why they suddenly didn't let them clean up, but they heard her continue: "In the future, making beds and stacking quilts, washing dishes and basins will be arranged for Jinyi, so no one else has to do it anymore." ”
"Got it." After everyone looked at each other, they all secretly glanced at each other to show that they understood.
Jinyi looked at the housekeeper's mother-in-law, and the housekeeper's mother-in-law glared at her and said, "What are you looking at?" From now on, don't let me see you lazy! And no matter how much you do, you have to wash it for me before dark, otherwise, don't blame my wife for being unkind to you! After speaking, he snorted and went out with his head held high.
The girls all looked at the brocade, some disdainful, some gloating, and more hung up on their own business. Jinyi watched them go out one by one to freshen up, so she could only hurry up and help them clean up the bedding on the couch one by one, and then hurriedly went out to wash. She could only drink a bowl of soup in a hurry, and then quickly washed the dirty dishes that everyone had left aside after eating.
Jinyi saw that there were not many people in the courtyard, but there were seven or eight piles of dirty clothes piled high in front of him, thinking that the work done by those girls was probably moved to his own hands. At this time, I didn't want to think about it too much, so I quickly brought water from the well to wash it.
The housekeeper's mother-in-law supervised her leisurely, biting a piece of pastry, snorting contemptuously while she was free, and then sneered: "Are you looking at the second young master to get you out?" Hmph, don't rely on the support of the second young master behind you, you think it's amazing! Just thinking about getting out of here. The second young master is not the same, there is no way? While his mouth didn't stop, he walked to the distance and moved a chair to sit on, staring at the brocade.
For her cynicism, Jinyi could only be secretly sad in her heart, and the only thing she could do was to lower her head and quickly wash out the dirty laundry.
In a hurry, I finally washed all the clothes before dark, and then put them on the shelves to dry, and rinsed the girls' clothes basins and washboards and the like, and my body was already full of sweat, and I was so tired that I couldn't straighten my waist. Dinner was still the same, only a small half bowl of dry rice remained, and there was no food left.
After eating, I watched people still talking and laughing, but Jinyi only felt that the skeleton of the whole body was about to fall apart, and as soon as he lay on the bed, he didn't even bother to lift the quilt to cover it, and he really didn't want to move. It's just that I was secretly thinking in my heart that Mother Yuan was targeting herself so much, it must have been ordered by my wife, and I naturally remembered the scene when Mother Li explained to her when she first came that day. I just haven't thought much about it, but I've fallen asleep deeply.
Du Yunhe promised not to question the empress dowager, so he had to come to see the brocade clothes every once in a while, and by the way, bring some food to her, say a few gossips, and then go back.
And as long as she was seen by the housekeeper's mother-in-law, as soon as Du Yunhe went back, she snatched it from Jinyi's hand, and scolded: "The people who work still want to eat?" Do you have this time to spare? Then he took the food he had received from Jinyi and went back to his room to enjoy it himself.
After more than half a month, the housekeeper saw that no matter how many things were arranged for Jinyi, she could complete it, and she didn't complain, so she couldn't do anything about it for a while.
The weather is getting colder, and the clothes and bedding are already very thick, and it is very difficult to wash. If a mattress or quilt wants to wring them out, even if it is a seven-foot man, no one dares to say that it is easy, let alone these thin girls. So when Jinyi laboriously cleaned many mattresses and wrung out two beds, many of the girls stopped what they were doing and looked at her in a daze.
Seeing that the housekeeper's mother-in-law was not there, Jin Fan finally couldn't help but move his steps. A girl beside her hurriedly grabbed her and whispered, "What are you doing?" What if you let Yuan's mother know? Have you forgotten that Jinxia lent her a candle the night she first arrived? Don't ask for trouble. ”
Jin Fan cautiously glanced around the entire courtyard and said in a low voice, "Isn't Mother Yuan here?" I'll hurry up and help her for a while, I won't be seen so coincidentally. After speaking, he walked over to Jinyi.
Jin Yi was busy working, and she didn't see them muttering, but she saw a person walking into her sight, she looked up, saw Jin Fan, saw her smiling at herself, but she was puzzled, I don't know why she approached her. saw that Jin Fan had already stretched out his hand, scooped up the other end of the mattress sheet and said, "I'll help you." ”
Jinyi was stunned for a moment, making sure that she was serious, so she nodded, but her eyes couldn't help but redden. The two of them dragged one end and twisted it in the opposite direction, and the mattress sheet full of water was quickly wrung out. After putting it in a clean basin, Jin Fan helped to unscrew the second one.
"What are you doing?!"
Yuan's mother's loud shout made Jin Fan shiver, and the mattress in his hand also fell down, and when he fell into the basin, the water was splashed in all directions, and he and Jinyi each splashed a lot.
"I don't know if I'm alive or dead!" The housekeeper had already walked up to the two of them, glaring at Jin Fan and said, "Did I ask you to help her work?" ”
Jin Yi saw that Jin Fan was angrily scolded for helping him with kindness, and he was very upset, and hurriedly explained: "Mother Yuan, I asked her for help, if you want to blame me, it's not about Jin Fan." ”
"Less nonsense! You two don't have to eat tonight. The housekeeper stared at the two of them, turned around and walked away, and said to herself, "How unreasonable, if I don't see me, I will make the treacherous ......."
Watching her mother-in-law walk away, Jin Yi said softly to Jin Fan: "I'm sorry, I caused it." ”
Jin Fan only shook his head at her, signaled that it didn't matter, and walked away.
After lying on the couch at night, Jinyi's thoughts were still Du Yunke, thinking that he didn't know what he was doing now? Maybe you're missing yourself too, right? The weather is getting colder, and I don't know when he will return. Thoughts go up and down, lingering, but there is no end in sight.
