Chapter 64: The Abacus

Mama Li was anxious and opened her mouth: "It's Mama Gui!" The slave saw Mama Gui go to the third girl's house last night. ”

Mama Li didn't know about Mama Gui and the eldest lady, but considering that Mama Gui and the third girl were secretly fighting a few days ago, so this time Mama Gui suddenly went to find the third girl, there must be something big, so she wanted to come over and invite the eldest lady.

"Mama Gui."

Yang's face was solemn, and the green clothes on one side couldn't bear to speak: "Madam, I ...... last night"

Yang tilted his head to look at her, and she was silent.

"Saw it with your own eyes? What time it is. Yang glanced at Mama Gui and asked calmly.

"Slave... Slave maid..."Mama Li's mind was heavy, and she kowtowed twice: "Hope Mrs. atonement, slave maid, slave maid doesn't know what time it is, only knows that it was last night......"

"Didn't you see it with your own eyes, how could you not know what time it was, madam, the slave maid saw that Mama Li was dizzy! I ...... last night."

"That's it!" Yang scolded the indignant green clothes coldly, and then asked Mama Li: "Explain it to me carefully!" ”

Mama Li was drunk by the Yang family, and her confidence was slightly insufficient: "It was the slave maid who got up early and heard Dongmei and Bai Zhi talking in the third girl's house, saying that Mama Gui went to find the third girl at night, and the slave didn't dare to lie." ”

Yang's brows furrowed, waved his hand, and only let Mama Li go back to Jinlin Courtyard first.

and did not reward her.

Mama Li walked on the way back to Jinlin Courtyard, breathing a sigh of relief in her heart.

As soon as Mama Li left, the green clothes said impatiently: "Madam, Mama Gui came with Tsing Yi last night, could it be that Mama Gui came out of our courtyard and went to Jinlin Courtyard again?" ”

"Humph! Now that I have lost the power in the house, she can't go to the second room with a shy face, and the future will be long! Yang gritted his teeth fiercely, and remembered in his heart that Mama Gui mentioned her method yesterday to blame the second room for the dowry, which was clearly impossible, but Mama Gui wanted her to be a bad person again, so that she could take advantage of the fisherman.

Yang's heart was on fire, her face turned cold, and she called the maids in the courtyard to enter the house, she looked at them one by one, and scolded fiercely: "You cheap hooves, you can't even look at some jewelry!" Since none of you admit it, there will be no monthly income for the next half a year! Or get me the jewelry back! ”

The maids looked at each other, scolded each other, and retreated in fright.

Leaving the Yang family, everyone was about to disperse, but they were shouted by the green clothes, the green clothes were innocently affected, and they were very annoyed, it was half a year's month, her heart was dripping with blood, and she scolded the little maids in front of her fiercely, so that she could be relieved.

****

In the Jinyi Courtyard, the maids are all working in the courtyard in a decent manner, and they dare not cross the distance.

In the concise bright room, Cheng's sat dignified on the chaise longue, twisted the thread to work as a female worker, her eyebrows and eyes were docile, and the needle and thread were in and out, unhurried.

Shen Ying sat aside, although she was also holding an embroidered handkerchief in her hand, but it was not as calm as Cheng's mind was as calm as water, and it was uncomfortable to sit, so she simply threw the embroidered handkerchief into the embroidery basket and muttered: "If you don't do it, don't do it, mother, why are you not in a hurry at all, you are not afraid that the eldest aunt will find out here." ”

"She doesn't have that brain." When Cheng spoke, he chuckled a little, and he didn't even raise his eyes.

Thinking of Shen Rong's cousin in Fuhua Courtyard that day, he put down the work in his hand, "But that girl is thoughtful, Ying'er, Sister Rong told you what today." ”

Shen Ying pursed her lips: "What do you have to say, she doesn't like to deal with me these days, and I don't bother to touch her moldy head." ”

"Nonsense! Forgot what my mother told you? Cheng's tone was slightly raised, and the corners of his eyes were sharp, which was completely different from the meekness when he showed people in the past.

Shen Ying was afraid of Cheng's, she hung her head pitifully, "Of course I haven't forgotten, but, mother, what about me, do you know my thoughts?" ”

Cheng sat close to Shen Ying and gently stroked her back: "Ying'er, you are my daughter, I naturally know, don't worry, my mother will definitely find a good family affair for you." ”

Shen Ying knew that this would be the case, so she moved out: "But Sister Rong doesn't like her cousin at all!" ”

"That's why I let you make a force from it, my mother explained to you, where do you remember, today** first embroider the peony picture, among several sisters, it is your female worker who is the best, is it possible that this is not as good as others?" As he spoke, Cheng picked up the embroidered handkerchief in the embroidery basket and handed it to Shen Ying.

Shen Ying pursed her lips, but finally didn't dare to say anything more.

Cheng smiled with satisfaction and called the lotus leaf in.

"Third lady." Lotus Ye was wearing a blue color Xiaokan, combing a double bun, bowing respectfully, and giving Cheng a full salute.

Although Cheng is married to a concubine, but the rules are very important, no matter how close the maid is, as long as she is in Jinyi Courtyard, she has to treat Cheng as an old lady, and make a big gift.

After Cheng waited for her to salute, Fang Rang got up, "Go and take those things out and pawn them, just these two days, the sooner the better." ”

Those dowries are in her hands, she is not sure, it is better to deal with them as soon as possible.

"Eh, slave knows." Lotus Ye got her life and withdrew from the house.

Shen Ying poked her head over: "Mother, I suddenly remembered one thing, Sister Lin and Sister Rong talked about Aunt Chan today, and their expressions were weird, as if they were a little gloating. ”

Cheng's eyes widened, and Wang Chan ......

The old lady has never interfered in the matter of concubines for several sons, and these sons are all upright, and none of them have concubines, Cheng suddenly smiled, it seems that this is about to break.

She looked at the freshly completed Hundred Flowers Picture in her hand, instructed Shen Ying a few words, and then took the Hundred Flowers Picture and walked out of Jinyi Courtyard.

It was Shen Shichu, she stood at the entrance of the Fuhua Courtyard and could see the old lady walking around the courtyard, and when she looked closely, the old lady was not waiting for anyone else, it was the Zhao family.

She lowered her jaw and grinned, even God helped her.

She was full of lotus and smiling trickly, Zhao glanced at her, and said a few words to the old lady, and the old lady also looked at her.

She smiled gently, blessed the old lady, and greeted the Zhao family again, Fang said, although the voice was also soft, but it was different from Zhao's feeling: "Mother, last time you said that you always felt that something was missing in your house, I don't know that it is not too late tonight, the daughter-in-law just rushed out a pair of embroidered pictures, if the mother can see it...... It can add some life to the house. ”

The old lady looked at it, and the two maids behind her stretched out the picture of a hundred flowers, and the old lady looked at it and couldn't help but praise: "Good! Good! Your craftsmanship is getting better and better, Mama Gui, hang this picture of a hundred flowers in the west. ”

Zhao took a closer look at this embroidery picture, and couldn't help but say: "This embroidery is really good." ”

Cheng said with a smile: "Mother, second sister-in-law, if you praise me again, I really don't know how thick the sky is." ”

The old lady was really satisfied with the embroidered picture, Su Cheng acted steadily, and did not like to be in the limelight, the old lady thought about it and said: "Just now, your second sister-in-law is saying that the things in this house are afraid that they will not be handled well, I will help her more in the future, the two of them will support each other, take care of the affairs of this house, don't go on a business trip." Hearing this, Zhao nodded and said: "Mother rest assured, the third brother and sister are in good spirits, and with the assistance of the third brother and sister, the daughter-in-law will have the confidence in her heart to deal with the big and small matters in the house." ”

Cheng was flattered and said, "It's good that the second sister-in-law doesn't think I'm troublesome." ”

Zhao felt that Cheng's personality was similar to her, and she was naturally happy to be able to get along with Cheng's.

After the two came out of Fuhua Courtyard, they walked together at first sight.

Cheng said: "Second sister-in-law, I am soft-spoken, don't you think I didn't give my second sister-in-law a head that day." She was referring to the dowry.

At this mention, Zhao remembered, when Cheng said that he believed her, her heart was even warmer, and she patted the back of Zhao's smooth hand closely: "Where is this, if you say so, I won't have the face to be here, I haven't figured out many things in the house yet, and I will have to bother my younger brothers and sisters in the future." ”

"It should be, it should be." Cheng kept smiling, "These days, I have also heard Sister Ying and me call Sister Rong, saying that Sister Rong has grown up and her temperament has changed. ”

"Hey, I'm happy if Sister Rong doesn't make trouble, but she is indeed a lot more sensible." Zhao listened to Cheng's talk about Sister Rong, and unconsciously got a little closer to Cheng.

After that, the two said goodbye in Jinlin Courtyard, and Mama Fang saw that Zhao's face was full of joy, and she stepped forward with small steps: "Madame, why are you so happy, that is the third lady?" ”

Zhao nodded with a smile on his face: "Even Mama can see that I am in a good mood, now the old lady treats me kindly, and Sister Lan also recognizes me as a mother, but taking care of the middle and middle feeds in the house is indeed not my strong point, it's just that there is a good start, and now it is time to find a good family for Sister Lan." ”

Mama Fang nodded in response: "There are a lot of people who tell the second girl that they are matchmakers, but they are all wrong people, that is, when they see our master Qingyun going straight up, they all want to be happy, but I heard a few girls in the outer courtyard who said that there is a number one person in Yong'an City, and it is said that it is very effective, so it is better for Mrs. to ask this master to calculate it for our second girl." ”

"Mama, how can you believe this, they are all cheaters of money, where can you take it seriously." Zhao shook his head and smiled, and entered the house.

At this time, Shen Rong, who had finished learning female red, also heard about Master Xuanqing of Yong'an City, she sat in front of the collapse with a frown, although Xiaoba had been to Qi Mansion, but his reputation could not spread so quickly.

And Xiaoba is not in Shanzheng Temple at the moment, she has already asked Qian Xiao to buy a dilapidated temple and let Xiaoba stay there temporarily, he is neither from Shanzheng Temple, which is prosperous in incense, nor other famous temples, I wanted to wait for another two years, so that Xiaoba will gradually appear in front of everyone, and now this matter has completely disrupted her abacus.

But who could it be?

She called Ruyi and said, "Let Qian Xiao go and check what is going on with the famous Master Xuanqing in the city!" ”R1152
