Chapter 106: Old Things
Cui Changjian frowned, lowered his head and looked at the tips of his shoes, looking very seriously without saying a word, but his mind was spinning fast.
He and Cui Wanhua are both shrewd people, whether it is the inner courtyard or the outer courtyard, as long as it is in the courtyard where they live, they have always been strictly controlled, and most of the people they use are people left behind by their own mothers, even if they want to add more people, they are also selected from their grandfather's family.
It is equivalent to completely not being the hand of Second Mrs. Cui, which completely eliminates the opportunity for people to insert eyeliner, so I have always felt that I can rest assured.
However, this will listen to the ninth sister, I'm afraid there is still a dark chess in Dening Academy, I'm afraid it's hidden quite deep, think about it, there is a saying, money can make ghosts grind, this maid mother in Dening Courtyard. The rough miscellaneous servants are counted as dozens of people.
It's hard to guarantee that there is no one who sees the money, this is bought by so many people, it is really not a rare thing, it seems that he was still too confident before.
This will think about it carefully, if the second lady Cui wants to buy people, I am afraid that she will not bother to find those who are not in the stream, and will carefully select people who can get accurate news.
You think, those who hide deeply, not all of them have to look heartfelt, they are all employed by Cui Wanhua or Cui Wanying, this is not bad, as long as it is bad, the consequences are unimaginable.
Thinking that there was a poisonous snake hidden next to his sister, uh, no, maybe several, Cui Changjian really had a chill down his spine and sweated on his forehead.
He had something in his heart, and he was a little uneasy in Mrs. Cui's house, and after a while, he found a reason for the same, and he said goodbye first.
As soon as he walked out of the gate of Songcui Courtyard, Cui Changjian whispered to Chang Sui, who had just come out of the ear room: "Go, hurry up and call Cui Shishi to me, I have something to tell him." β
There are two things to do right now, one is Aunt Jiang's business, so we have to find a way to find out Aunt Jiang's movements to see when she will go out alone and what the chances are that she will go out with her daughter.
The other is Dening Yuan, and I can't tell my eldest sister for the time being about checking the eyeliner, she is the most thoughtful, and she never shows mercy to the slaves who betray her master, besides, maybe the maid mother next to her was bought?
This Cui Shishi is Cui Changjian's grandmother brother who grew up together, and his mother is now Cui Wanying's housekeeper mother, and she is the person who can make Cui Changjian believe the most.
Cui Changjian thought of the personality he was going to do, and returned to his yard, but after half an hour, he arranged both things properly.
Cui Wanqing, who was still talking with her grandmother, had already guessed in her heart that her third brother was afraid that she would go back to arrange, she was not worried that this matter would leak out, with Cui Changjian's shrewd brain, in order not to startle the snake, she must have done it in private, even Cui Wanhua and Cui Wanying would not say it.
Thinking that Cui Changjian was afraid that it would not be long before he would find out that Cui Wanhua was wrong, Cui Wanqing's heart did not feel happy, but felt a little heavy, Cui Changjian almost didn't know about it in his previous life, and the only thing he knew was that he loved money.
But in this life, under the coincidence of karma, there is more contact between brothers and sisters, and this back and forth, unconsciously there is a different feeling.
Cui Wanqing was lonely for half a lifetime in her previous life, and it was not until she had her own flesh and blood that she felt the so-called family affection in the world.
But at that time, her nature was impossible to change, so she seemed to be strong and indifferent, but in fact, she longed for family affection more than anyone else, and it was easiest to feel the kindness of others.
Otherwise, Cui Wanqing would not have given up her own life for the sake of her daughter, Qi Xuanhui at that time was already at the end of the crossbow, but Cui Wanqing held most of the power of the palace, but for the safety of her daughter, she didn't dare to risk resisting at all.
Even if he wrestled with Qi Xuanhui, who stepped into the coffin with one foot, he won by luck, but a person like Qi Xuanhui, how could he not leave a backhand?
Who is your top pick? Qi Xuanhui is still unclear?
If he wins this Heavenly Demon Star, but loses his daughter, Cui Wanqing might as well be dead!
In the final analysis, Cui Wanqing is really a person who attaches great importance to feelings, but in her previous life, she was first strong and habitually loved to compete with others, which made everyone particularly disgusted her.
Later, she became a woman, and because of the deliberate operation of King Liang, the people of the palace were afraid of her in their hearts, and as far as possible, away from this vicious person whose hands were covered with blood.
In this way, Cui Wanqing, a lonely man, if he wants to survive in the palace, he can only hold on to the big tree of King Liangwang tightly and make cattle and horses for him.
Thinking of the things in her previous life, Cui Wanqing only felt that her heart was blocked, it was one thing to think clearly, and it was another thing to really go to the meeting, as far as the current situation was concerned, Cui Wanqing could not do the word relief.
Mrs. Cui also saw that Cui Wanqing was a little depressed, and her mood was very low, knowing that her granddaughter, she was afraid that she was missing her deceased mother, and she was not happy.
Thinking that Cui Wan was going to study at the academy tomorrow, and there were a lot of things that needed to be packed tonight, I simply sent her back to her house and asked her to find something to do.
It's just that the old man inevitably told Cui Wanqing a few more intimate words, all of which asked her to be a low-key person in Jinghui Academy and study hard.
Old Madam Cui gave a burden that she had prepared a long time ago, and asked Fu Hui to give it to Yulan and continued, "Good boy, here, it is a little bit of self-esteem given to you by your grandmother, when your three sisters went to Jinghui Academy to study, they also received a share, work hard, and fight for our Cui family." β
Cui Wanqing saw that this burden was very tight, not small, and the weight was obviously quite heavy, and she couldn't help but think in her heart: "Anyway, for the granddaughter who is useful to the family, the grandmother always treats her well, and in the previous life, she was not less rewarded by the ancestors, and in this life, once she emerged, her grandmother immediately released her kindness." β
The family woman, there is the responsibility of the family woman to bear, the family for you to eat and drink, the delicate care to grow up, naturally there is something to be rewarded.
Cui Wanqing sighed in her heart, bowed down and stood quietly, responded to Mrs. Cui's orders one by one, and reassured her grandmother comfortably, and then went out to go back to her east chamber.
She returned to the boudoir, but saw that there was only Ah Tao in the room, and couldn't help but ask strangely: "Mother Fang, they have just come back, why don't you see anyone?" β
Ah Tao replied with a smile: "Mother Fang has not been idle since she came back, she is busy preparing the items for you to use tomorrow." β
Cui Wanqing hurriedly waved her hand and sighed: "Hurry up and let her old man rest, this is to go to school, not to go on an outing, and she can't bring many things." β
"Besides, if you go to the academy with me tomorrow, Yingqiao will be alone, how many things can she take alone?"
"You can only bring some commonly used necessities, and then bring more silver, Jinghui Academy has its own canteen, which is extremely cheap, and it will become a burden to bring more?"
Yulan behind her smiled: "Let the maid say, you first follow Mother Fang to clean up for you, and when you are a little crooked and tired, then go and pick up some needed belts, if you stop Mother Fang, she will feel uncomfortable, let her go." β
Cui Wanqing shook her head helplessly and smiled, and took advantage of Yingqiao to go out to fetch water, so she opened the burden of Mrs. Cui's reward and looked at it.
I saw that it was actually a pure white fox fur inside, covered with a water-red Shu brocade with branches, neckline and cuffs, and the white fox fur was fluffy, which made people like it.
Reaching out and touching it, it was even softer and smoother, Yulan looked carefully, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "This big piece is half-new, but the maid has never seen the old woman have this, it's really strange." β
She was originally Mrs. Cui's eldest maid, and she was indispensable for packing up her clothes and drying her big sweaters every year.
Since this big piece is not Mrs. Cui's, it has to be newly made, and the question is, who have you seen make a big piece and put on a new face?
Cui Wanqing's mind turned slightly, and she guessed seven or eight points, "Go, go next door and invite Fang's mother to come over, let her take a look, have you seen this thing?" β
Yulan immediately thought that this was the old thing of the second lady before, the old woman was afraid of the cold weather, and Cui Wanqing did not have a decent big sweater to support the faΓ§ade, so she found out her daughter-in-law's things and gave them to her granddaughter.
Cui Wanqing sat on the couch, her hand followed Mao Feng for a while, and her eyes flowed up and down on this big coat.
The coat color and hair peaks of this piece are particularly outstanding, even in the white fox, it must be a carefully selected skin.
And the top of the Shu brocade cover, is more exquisite, the weaver is extraordinary, obviously do not see the gold and silver thread, but with their own hands, this cloth in the candlelight, is flashing a little bit of brilliance.
Such a good thing, in the previous life, there were only three pieces of the Liangwang Mansion that was rich and rivaled the country, and Cao Yunxiu, the daughter of the Houmen, actually had one in his hands.
After a while, Fang's mother entered the door, and before she had time to say hello to Cui Wanqing, she caught a glimpse of the big piece in Cui Wanqing's hand, and exclaimed, "Isn't this the woman's snow gold?" How is it in the hands of the young lady? β
Cui Wanqing smiled and nodded: "Grandmother rewarded this, as well as a box of jewelry, and a few silver tickets, grandma come to see, these jewelry, but my mother brought it before?" β
Fang's mother was a little excited, and her hand that opened the box was a little trembling, but when she saw the noon inside, she was stunned for a moment, and reached out to rummage a few times in it, and then said dejectedly: "These jewelry hairpin rings, everything is excellent, but it is not Madame's, these are all new, and the old lady is now more and more interested in you." βR1152
