Chapter 170
Before Cheng Zhang's reward could be digested, the eldest lady of Cheng Mansion also came to the door. It was Yuzhu who came to the needle house to find Li Junran. Don't look at Yuzhu is just a second-class maid like Li Junran now, but a discerning person can still see a lot of clues. Cheng Yuyan obviously wants to cultivate Yuzhu to be a cronie like Mama Ding. In this way, the original two first-class girls Bai Zhi and Bai Wei around Cheng Yuyan were a little embarrassed, especially Bai Wei.
In this regard, Li Junran, who has been watching the play on the sidelines, feels very normal, and has no sense of surprise at all. If you are any person with a normal mind, you will choose Yuzhu, who is young but very calm, rather than the impetuous Bai Wei. What's more, Bai Wei was also bought by the third aunt, and made small moves behind her back more than once. It's just that for Cheng Yuyan, Yuzhu's age is a bit embarrassing. is young, his appearance is not bad, and he has been serving by his side since he was a child, so he knows the roots. Isn't this kind of personal maid just for my future uncle?
However, Li Junran knows that for Cheng Yuyan, who is replaying the game of life, even if Yuzhu has this thought, I am afraid that Cheng Yuyan may not be willing to let Yuzhu serve her husband. On the one hand, she is an aunt who knows the roots, knows her preferences and even her privacy, and on the other hand, she is a capable manager who can use it for herself, Cheng Yuyan in her previous life may choose to make Yuzhu an aunt who is a means to compete for favor, but Cheng Yuyan, who replays the game of life, will definitely choose the latter. What's more, the murder of the third aunt by the ninth aunt is still vivid......
"What are you thinking, you stupid girl?" Yuzhu, who was walking in front, rode around and there were no bystanders. As soon as he turned around, he leaned his head on Li Junran's shoulder, and reached out with a smile and poked Li Junran's fat cheek.
"Yuzhu, thank you." This thank you, Li Junran has wanted to talk to Yuzhu for a long time. Several times before, it was Yuzhu who helped her solve her difficulties.
"Uh, honey on your mouth? Suddenly so sweet? Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, his face was slightly gloomy, "Qiliu, you ...... Are you leaving Chengfu? ”
Don't look at Yuzhu was personally selected by Cheng Yuyan, but Yuzhu and the same batch of maids who can serve Miss Cheng Fu at close range are all Bai Zhi has been observing in private for a long time. sent them to Cheng Yuyan. Afterwards. Yuzhu followed Bai Zhi to learn how to take better care of Cheng Yuyan.
Yuzhu has no doubt about Cheng Yuyan's loyalty, but he is grateful to Bai Zhi, the leader who gave him the opportunity. Li Junran used to live in Bai Zhi's house and was taken care of by Bai Zhi many times. Yuzhu has helped Li Junran many times, so she didn't repay Bai Zhi's kindness. Because I have been with Bai Zhi for a long time. Naturally, he was faintly aware of Li Junran's careful thinking. In addition to being greedy for glory and wealth like Bai Wei. Those who are ambitious, who do not want to get rid of slavery and regain their free body. Even if the life outside can't be compared with Cheng Fu at all. What's more, Li Junran was not the son of the Cheng family. It's just a ten-year living contract.
To say that you are not jealous is a lie, but it is more envy. As Bai Zhi once mentioned to Yuzhu, as long as she serves the eldest lady well, she can't be like Qiliu's stupid girl, who returned the deed of sale and regained her free body from Chengfu's family.
"I don't know." Li Junran didn't hide anything from Yuzhu, she was really not sure, "Yuzhu, you know." My father and my mother, as well as my little brother, have been thinking about redeeming me since I sold myself to the mansion, but my grandfather and grandmother in front of me stopped me. Now my family has nothing to do with the four rooms, and the grandma is very good......"
Yuzhu nodded repeatedly, indicating that he could understand. When I was a little girl before, I also heard those rough mothers-in-law gossip about the little Qiliu family, and I remember that she sighed at that time, whether it was her own son or not, this treatment is really different.
Yuzhu, who is the son of the Cheng family, knows more than Li Junran, although she can understand Li Junran's intention to get rid of slavery, but she knows that wanting to get rid of her nationality is not something that can be achieved by being a maid, and the most important thing is whether Cheng Zhang, who is the master, is willing to let go. Seeing that Li Junran was thinking, Yuzhu had to pour some cold water and reminded a few words in a whisper: "Qiliu, it's better for you to take it easy in this matter." You'll have to find a chance for your lady to be happy, and then mention it. ”
"I saved it, Yuzhu." Regarding Yuzhu's kind reminder, Li Junran did not refuse. Xue Lian had also reminded her of this before, and the two of them had even been in the manor for a long time before finally finalizing this time. Although the time is a bit tight, it is obviously even more inappropriate if it is delayed until the twelfth lunar month. At that time, it was too late to be busy for the New Year, and Cheng Zhang's had an excuse to prevaricate. As for the New Year...... Time drags on too long, and long nights are always easy to dream.
In fact, there is one thing, Li Junran didn't tell anyone, only her and her own fat mouse knew. If it weren't for the fact that Cheng Zhang had hidden her real deed of sale in Maitreya Buddha's belly, and had prepared an additional deed of sale that was fake and real, Li Junran would not have made up his mind so quickly and "took" Xiao Qiliu's deed of sale as soon as possible. For this reason, she also COS a gentleman on the beam.
The sachet was filled with the poison of "Dream Lotus", because it was not eaten directly in the water, and it would take at least two or three months for it to work. Cheng Zhang's family should not be happy that she died in Cheng's mansion, causing the unhappiness of her baby daughter, if someone from the Li family came to ask her to get rid of slavery during this time, the success rate should increase a lot.
When Yuzhu saw Li Junran say this, she knew that Li Junran really listened to her words, so she no longer lay on Li Junran's body, but regained her original demeanor.
"Let's go, the eldest lady is still waiting for you."
Li Junran followed behind Yuzhu, quickened her pace and walked through the crescent moon gate, and walked along the corridor in the direction of Jing Yaxuan. Neither of them noticed that two figures were standing in the corner not far from the crescent moon gate.
Cheng Yuyao waited for Li Junran to walk away before she walked out of the corner where she had been hiding before, and her delicate little face was neither happy nor sad.
"It turns out that she wants to leave Cheng Mansion......" Cheng Yuyao looked in the direction of Jing Yaxuan through the almost transparent display screen, a trace of calculation flashed in her eyes, and if she wanted to leave, she had to ask her if she agreed! .
"You're here?" When Li Junran came to the main house of Jing Yaxuan to meet Cheng Yuyan. Cheng Yuyan was tired of lying on the beauty couch, holding a thick medical book in her hand, her willow eyebrows frowning slightly. Not far from my feet is a pot of charcoal that is burning very brightly.
"Miss Ann." Li Junran respectfully gave Cheng Yuyan a regular salute, but she didn't want to attract Cheng Yuyan's displeasure.
Cheng Yuyan waved her hand and sent out a few Gansong who were originally guarding the room, then sat up and threw the medical book in her hand onto the beauty couch. Cheng Yuyan pointed to the small round stool next to the beauty's couch and said, "Come here, sit down, talk to me for a while." Speaking of which, we are sisters and sisters. I haven't spoken in a long time. ”
Li Junran did not refuse. Lightspeed sat down on the small round stool and unceremoniously stretched out his hand to the charcoal basin to roast his hand.
Ah, if only there were chestnuts or sweet potatoes. Grilled with this fine silver filigree, it must be delicious. Didn't bake for long. Li Junran's slightly frozen limbs eased slightly.
"Seven girls. I tasted the mushrooms I sent yesterday with my mother. It's delicious. Cheng Yuyan looked at Li Junran through the red light of the charcoal basin, "You have a heart." ”
"Miss...... Sister, if you like it, it's fine. Li Junran naturally won't tell Cheng Yuyan the truth. If it weren't for the guest appearance of the gentleman on the beam and the return of Xiao Qiliu's deed of sale, she wouldn't have given any mushrooms on a snowy day.
For Cheng Yuyan, Li Junran is actually quite contradictory. She is not a person who does not know how to be grateful, the grace of saving lives, there is a chance to repay. But she didn't want to be convicted of a (?) debt He sold himself into slavery for the rest of his life. This is a native of this, even if Cheng Yuyan, who was reborn, can't understand it. But Cheng Yuyao, the second Miss Cheng who traveled with her, may be able to understand.
"I heard that my mother rewarded you with something?" Cheng Yuyan could feel that Li Junran's words were obviously alienated.
"Yes. Madame rewarded Liu Er with a sachet. Li Junran nodded, and took out a sachet tightly wrapped in a handkerchief from his bosom (actually in the manor warehouse). Before Li Junran came back to her senses, Cheng Yuyan picked up the sachet and habitually put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it.
Li Junran pursed her lips, and she had already solved the poison called "Menglian" in the sachet, otherwise...... If Cheng Zhang knew that the poison she quietly put in the sachet failed to poison herself, but hurt her most precious daughter, I don't know how she would react. Not to mention the side, I can't wait to divide my five horses.
"It smells good." Cheng Yuyan, who was also worried that her mother would do her hands and feet in the sachet, took a closer look and found that it was just an ordinary thing, so she returned the sachet to Li Junran with a smile. The value of the sachet, Cheng Yuyan can naturally estimate one or two, and seeing that her mother is so generous, she took out the purse that Bai Zhi turned out last night and stuffed it into Li Junran's hand.
"Oh, you take this purse, this is what I gave you."
The purse is as delicate as ever, and Li Junran can even feel that the purse contains a large piece of hard object, which really doesn't look like silver according to the texture, but I'm afraid it's a jade pendant or something. After Li Junran opened the purse, he unexpectedly turned out a piece of jade pendant from it. The jade quality is in the middle, the carving is quite exquisite, the front is a group pattern, and the reverse side is engraved with a big "Yan" word in the middle.
This one...... What do you mean?
Li Junran looked at Cheng Yuyan suspiciously.
"I know you've been thinking about going back to Li's house, and in a few days, when the weather is fine, find someone to bring a letter back to Lijiatun, and ask your father and mother to bring money to pick you up." Cheng Yuyan said softly, "At that time, I will persuade my mother on the side to return your deed of sale to you." It's not in vain for you and my sister to ......"
"......" Li Junran's eyes turned red. At this moment, to say that you are not moved, it is a lie. Although Cheng Yuyan had calculated her before, she had never harmed her, and even rescued her several times. Li Junran didn't know if without Cheng Yuyan's protection, she, a lonely soul from the future, would still be able to be so free in Cheng Mansion. 'M afraid...... On the first day of coming to the Apocalypse Dynasty, he was buried alive by the third aunt.
"Okay, I know you're not that stupid, and you won't leak your mother's fake pregnancy." Cheng Yuyan's body leaned forward slightly, and she was very accustomed to pinching Li Junran's white red and fat cheeks, "This jade pendant is not worth anything, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can take the jade pendant to Cheng Mansion to find me, or go to Baohetang to find Old Man Xu." He is also your and my master. ”
"Second Senior Sister ......"
"If you really can't bear me, why don't you stay with me? Marry me again in the future?! Cheng Yuyan joked with a grin.
Don't! Li Junran shook his head and quickly cleaned up his mood.
"Second Senior Sister."
"Huh?"
"You have to be careful with your second sister."
"Seven girls, you are guilty of the following crimes, provoking the master." Cheng Yuyan raised her eyebrows.
The corners of Li Junran's mouth twitched slightly, as long as he was not blind, he could see that there were many contradictions between the Cheng Mansion and the concubines, whether it was good or not. Don't look at the two young ladies of Cheng Mansion who barely maintained politeness on their faces, in fact, they were already incompatible. Since the opening of the White Deer Academy in early September, there have been a lot of small actions between you and me in the past two months. Although Cheng Yuyan still has the upper hand, it also makes Cheng Yuyao grow up rapidly. Of course, Li Junran won't say that she was killed, in fact, she has paid a lot of money in private in the past two months, and she has watched a lot of good shows.
"That...... Miss Yu Yao buried something in Jing Yaxuan...... "Li Junran was silent for a while, but decided to tell Cheng Yuyan about it. As for whether Cheng Yuyan believes it or not, she doesn't bother to care.
Originally, she was joking, but Cheng Yuyan's eyes were a lot sharper in an instant. (To be continued......)
