Chapter 156: Pickled
PS: Recommend a friend's masterpiece: "Rong Xiang" Author: Mu Mu Gezi. Facing the competitors in his previous life, Xun Ran shook the olive branch: "Lang Jun, let's form an alliance!" ”
But there are also many young ladies who don't like to watch dramas, Cui Wanqing simply took them to the garden to play, there are also several pavilions here in Dongfu, some are still in the middle of the mountain, although they are not as imposing as the Ming'an Hou Mansion, but they can definitely be seen.
On the road, everyone couldn't help but talk about Cui Wanjuan's painting skills, and as they talked, they talked about Cui Wanjuan's mentor, Mr. Kong's body.
Zheng Xiu'er loves to make friends with this kind of elegant person the most, so she stopped at the time, pulled Cui Wanqing's sleeve and said with a smile: "Hey, sister Qing'er, if you want your sister to say that you go to the pavilion to play, it's just a game, a few small talks, in fact, it's all the same." ”
"Why don't we go to Mr. Kong to talk, visit her together, beg for tea and eat, let's sit together and talk about poetry and painting, wouldn't it be nice to talk about the past and the present?"
As soon as Cui Wanqing heard Zheng Xiu'er's opinion, everyone else put it aside, looked at Cao Rong and asked with a smile: "Cousin Rong, you said, let's go to the pavilion to play?" Or is it better to go to Mr. Zheng to talk about the past and the present? ”
If you want to say that as the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Cao Rong's mansion, she should accompany Mrs. Ming'anhou.
But this one, I don't like to watch the distorted stories in the dramas, and I have always felt that these dramas are all nonsense, what Miss Xiangfu eloped with Luo Tuocai, and what Qinglou prostitutes chivalrous and helpful.
It's obviously an impossible thing to happen, but it's just imagined and made up. Engage in some ignorant girls. Full of hope. When it was time to get married, I found that my dream was shattered in front of my eyes!
What kind of single-minded love does you want to come to this world?
A couple for a lifetime, but even more daydreaming?
Looking around, in the entire capital, which official is not a group of wives and concubines? Some even keep them in captivity, which really doesn't have any moral bottom line.
To put it mildly, that is, there is nothing that only people can't think of in their hearts, and there is nothing that these scumbags can't do.
With such a different idea. Cao Rong will definitely not stay in the theater to suffer the crime, so he can only act with his cousin.
Speaking of which, this is the second time she has come to Cui's house, and when she came back, she walked around in Cui's garden, although the scenery in some places is not lacking in novelty, but she is a person who has seen a lot of scenery, and she really can't raise any momentum when she looks at it for the second time.
When I met Cui Wanqing first, she asked what she meant, and I have to say that the respect she had for Cui Wanqing in her heart was quite useful.
And this question is for her. There was nothing to choose, so he looked at Zheng Xiu'er and smiled: "Since Xiu'er wants to go." Then let's go, anyway, it's all about killing time everywhere, maybe this Mr. Kong can bring unexpected joy to our sisters. ”
In this way, the group discussed, and temporarily changed their minds, Cui Wanqing sent the maid to Mr. Kong to report the news first, and accompanied these coquettish guests, leisurely, talking and laughing to the Mingyue Pavilion.
This was still walking, and suddenly I heard the commotion behind me, first someone ran to the nearest corner gate, and then someone carried the ivy table to the side of the opera garden, and the people came and went so lively.
"Stop, let me ask you, do you know that today is the second master's birthday? The garden is full of distinguished guests, why do you come here with such a noise? Cui Wanqing called a maid out of voice and asked in a deep voice.
She looked at Zheng Xiu'er, Meng Yuele, and the Cao family sisters with surprise on their faces, and Cao Tang felt strange when she returned it.
But the trace of disdain in Cao Rong's eyes, seeing Cui Wanqing's eyes, was infinitely magnified.
Cui Wanqing even felt that Cao Rong seemed to be saying: "Look, I'll just say that the Cui family is a small family, such a serious day, these people are running around so unruly, it's really sad and lamentable." ”
Instead of letting these people speculate in their hearts, it is better to call someone to ask for clarification.
Cui Wanqing has always been very accurate in her eyes, and she asked a twelve or thirteen-year-old maid, who should be a second-class maid when she looks dressed, a maid of this status, generally knows not too much, nor too little, and it is the most suitable to ask questions.
This maid is called Li'er, a second-class maid in Wenjin Academy, and she followed Bao's mother on an errand in the past, so she was on an errand in the opera garden today, and when the accident happened, she was nearby, and she would be sent out to the nearest kitchen to ask for hot water.
Li'er saw that the person who asked was Miss Nine, who was favored by her own old lady, how could she dare not reply?
Hurriedly curtsied and said: "If the maid returns to Miss Jiu, it is Aunt Xiang from Dongfu, when she was watching the play in the theater garden, she accidentally fell, it seems that she fell very badly, our old lady knows it, this is to ask us to ask the doctor, boil hot water, and place Aunt Xiang in the Songcui Courtyard first." ”
"Oh, it's so noisy, but it's such a thing, but even if it happens for a reason, you still have to be quiet, don't disturb the guests in the house." Cui Wanqing heard that she still had an errand on her, so she asked Yulan to give a reward, so she sent him away.
Li'er got the benefit of falling from the sky, she was inexplicably happy, and nodded her head again and again, saying yes, she finally remembered that she had an errand, and she didn't dare to delay, so she trotted all the way to the small kitchen.
"Which Aunt Xiang is this maid talking about? Why is it still so valued by Mrs. Cui? Cao Rong asked seemingly casually.
She actually didn't ask Cui Wanqing, but she really felt a little incredible, this aunt is in various mansions, she is half a master and half a servant, and she looks down on her as a servant, and she can't look down on her as a serious master.
Why did Mrs. Cui personally give an order for an aunt who couldn't get on the stage, and even placed people in her own yard?
This is really strange for Cao Rong, who treats his aunt as a slave.
Cui Wanqing smiled when she heard this, "Cousin Rong doesn't know, this Aunt Xiang is the one we saw just now, the beautiful aunt who is wearing a golden thread cloud silk brocade and various peony flower gowns. ”
"Isn't Le'er still admiring the beauty of other people's lives? This was my grandmother's personal maid, and she was the most favored in front of the old man, but later the old man felt sorry for his son, so he gave this most reassuring maid to his father as an aunt. ”
"So it's not surprising that my grandmother attaches great importance to her, after all, she grew up beside her old man when she was a child, and her feelings are different."
Cao Rong nodded when he heard this, "Oh, I see. But he was secretly thinking in his heart, "This is another doctor, and it's boiling hot water, isn't it a slippery tire?" ”
"Today is the birthday of the second master of Cui, what a festive day, I prefer to die, there is such an unfortunate thing, alas, it seems that the matter of this mansion, which one is quite lively."
After this sudden episode, Cui Wanqing led everyone to Mr. Kong's side again, her eyes glanced at Yulan intentionally or unintentionally, and saw Yulan nodding at herself, and naturally took a few steps back, letting Yingqiao follow Cui Wanqing forward.
Yulan retreated to the side of the road, and watched Cui Wanqing and the others drift away, so she bent the corners of her mouth and turned around to go to Songcui Courtyard to listen to the news.
Don't look at Cui Wanqing, her face is still as usual, greeting the guests, but she knows in her heart that something big must have happened, and the bad things that happened to Aunt Xiang are nine times out of ten caused by Second Mrs. Cui.
Thinking of the extraordinary joy of Second Mrs. Cui earlier today, I thought of the tragedy that happened to Aunt Xiang. Is there anything else Cui Wanqing doesn't understand?
You know, Aunt Xiang is already favored enough now, if she is pregnant, won't she be superior again?
Second Mrs. Cui, who is arrogant and regards the back house of Xifu as her own territory, how can she watch Aunt Xiang get pregnant and give birth safely?
Today, taking advantage of the many people and miscellaneous things, a farce was carefully planned, and the one was the best, but I didn't know that the one who was selected by Mrs. Cui to carry the black pot would be the unlucky ghost?
Today's day is busy, from the Cui family to the old lady, down to Cui Wanqing, none of them feel tired.
But Rao is back and feet hurt, Cui Wanqing, who just sent away his grandfather's family, decided to go to the main house of Songcuiyuan first, and he had to report to his grandmother, so he could go back to the room to rest, right?
Although Cui Wanqing knew that she would pass, there was a chance that she would not see anyone, but the etiquette could not be abolished, so no matter what old lady Cui was busy dealing with, she had to go for a walk first.
As soon as she stepped on the jade steps, she found that the guards at the door were not the little girls in the past, but replaced with Qiu Ju and Bai Cha.
Cui Wanqing walked lightly to Bai Cha, Bai Cha approached Cui Wanqing with a nervous face, and whispered in her ear: "Miss Jiu, our eldest master and second master, and the eldest lady and the second lady are discussing in the house at the moment, I am afraid that it is getting to the important point, so you can't get in." ”
Cui Wanqing smiled at Bai Cha, wiped off the ring on her hand, stuffed it into Bai Cha's hand skillfully, and chuckled: "Oh, since that's the case, then I'll go back first, thank you Sister Bai Cha for mentioning it." ”
She turned around and was about to go back to the house, when she heard a crisp sound in the house, and then heard her grandmother yelling angrily: "I sue you, Zhou, you usually keep this Xifu tightly on weekdays, and you are bent on gaining power and money, the old body can turn a blind eye and ignore you, but if you want to harm my son's own blood and blood, the old body must not tolerate it!" ”
As soon as Cui Wanqing heard this, she didn't stop any longer, and went to her house quickly.
Sure enough, as I expected, this is another black heart, listening to my grandmother's anger, probably my brother (sister) who I haven't seen, eighty percent of them have not been saved (to be continued......)
