Chapter 121: The life of the maid's body
Lin Zhu bit his lip and turned around and walked out of the kitchen, and did not forget to turn around and admonish: "Brother Dabao, be careful, don't prick your hands." β
Dabao responded, and burned the fire very carefully.
As soon as Lin Zhu turned around, he looked at Jin Xiaoguang's eyes, as if he was smiling but not smiling, unfathomable.
She hurriedly lowered her eyes.
This Jin Xiaoguang is too terrifying, he is obviously talking to Yan Wuwu, but his eyes are everywhere, making her always feel that she is following her.
In the field at the other end of the vegetable garden, Shumo bent down to pick a few pear melons that were a little soft when they were pinched through the yellow, and greeted Lin Yunlinduo, who was holding a water scoop to water the cucumbers: "Yun'er Duo'er, I haven't seen you for a long time, you are good." β
His voice was passionate and full of energy.
Lin Yun lowered her head shyly and blushed and said, "It's okay, Lord Yun?" β
The voice is like a mosquito, although he went to the capital to buy paper kites and saw Shumo a few times, he didn't say much, but he just heard Lin Zhu call him Lord Yun in the end.
Shumo put the picked pear melon into the cloth bag he carried, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's okay." β
He asked again: "By the way, can someone come to Zhu'er these days, the one I introduced to buy paper kites?" β
Lin Duo has been obsessed with books and inks since he went to the capital to buy paper kites last time and has been obsessed with books and ink since he came back.
Seeing Shumo so close and enthusiastic, he was speechless for a while. At this time, he came to his senses, and without waiting for Lin Yun to answer, he hurriedly said: "No, we are together every day, except for the people in the back kitchen of the house, no one has ever come.
Shumo picked a few more, picked up two that were not the best, handed them to Lin Yun Linduo and said, "This pear melon is delicious, you can eat these two when they are ripe." β
A glimmer of light flashed in Lin Yun's eyes. She had been planning for days about these fragrant pears and melons that had already made her slanderous. But because the second dish is old-fashioned and rigid, he stubbornly thinks that such a good pear melon should be supplied to the house first, and the old lady and the princess, aunt, young master and young master in the house have tasted it, and even the iron housekeeper Chef Zhu and Aunt Cai have eaten it, and then give them a taste.
And the flowering time of this pear melon is different, the sunshine is not the same, and the ripening time is not the same, always three or four a day, and the second dish is very careful and counted. Lin Zhu didn't dare to eat it. They still have to have a few full meals in the vegetable garden, so they don't have a chance for a long time.
She hurriedly wiped her hand on the placket of her shirt and took it with both hands.
Lin Duo also wiped her hands and took the pear melon. She was more gluttonous than Lin Yun. Take the pear and melon, don't wash it. Aim at the thick part of the meat and take a bite.
Lin Yun felt that she was a little embarrassed. glared at her fiercely.
Lin Duo hurriedly lowered his head.
Shumo smiled warmly and said, "Eat slowly." Last time, several people inquired about paper kites in front of me, and I told them all the addresses. Let them come to Zai'er, my friends are very rich. I want the second chef to earn some manual fees. How could they not come? You two didn't see it, I'll ask Zhu'er later. β
He said it casually, as if he was just talking casually.
Lin Duo hurriedly said, "Lord Yun, don't ask. We're here every day, and no one has ever come. β
She ate too quickly, and she didn't pour out the seeds in the pear melon, and the white pear and melon seeds stuck to the corners of her mouth, which was very unsightly.
Lin Yun glared at her again.
It's like I've never eaten it in eight lifetimes, and I love to talk.
Lin Duo hurriedly closed his mouth and lowered his head to eat pears and melons.
Shumo said again: "Why are you here every day, I have been here a few times before, but I have never seen you." β
Lin Yun just wanted to answer, but Lin Duo interjected again: "We didn't come, we were all watching outside." Master Yun, every day at dawn, we watch from the corner of the courtyard wall, except for the people in the back kitchen of Yanfu, we all know who comes. β
She has fewer eyes than Lin Yun, and she is interested in books and ink, so she can say anything.
The angry Lin Yun wanted to beat her. Grandma asked them to monitor the vegetable garden, because she wanted to know at all times who had brought something to the vegetable garden, so that they could loot it to feed the family.
Shumo smiled faintly and said, "Okay, what are you staring at the vegetable garden all day long?" What's there to see? β
Lin Duo told the truth again: "My grandmother said that the people in the house will often help the second uncle and aunt, let us see who brings something, so we can go and get it." β
Shumo said "oh" and said, "Then your grandmother is painstaking and well-intentioned." β
Lin Duo was anxious to express herself in front of Shumo, ignoring Lin Duo's eyes again and again to signal her to speak less, and said honestly: "My grandmother said that there are ten big mouths waiting for dinner at home, and if you don't pay close attention to the second uncle and aunt, the family will not be able to live." And my second uncle and aunt are cheap, so many nephews and nieces in my family don't raise them, but they have to raise them. Can't be cheaper, the money-losing goods. β
What she said was Lin Zhang's original words, so undisguised, it was really lacking.
Lin Yun's eyes glared angrily, and he didn't dare to stop it.
I wanted to tear her thick mouth apart.
This sister is simply a pig's head!
Although the two of them are now helping out in the vegetable garden, it seems that Lin Shu is also treating them well. But it was all face-saving, and she knew Lin Zhu's intentions. It was only because the family really couldn't eat enough that in order to wait for Young Master Jin to come back and attract his attention, he forcibly suppressed the reluctance in his heart.
Besides, Shumo is Jin Xiaoguang's person, Jin Xiaoguang is the cousin of the carefree son, and Yan Wuwu is the master of Lin Zhu, he is good to Lin Zhu's family, and he doesn't hide the knife in the legendary smile at all.
They are a group, and it can be seen from the last time in the capital that Shumo Gang Lin Zhu is very good to Lin Zhu, similar to Dabao.
How can this sister who is missing roots tell him all the meaning of grandma.
Shumo saw what Lin Yun meant, and said with a faint smile: "Yun'er, don't worry, I won't sue SΓΉ Zhu'er, that's your private matter." But Yun'er Duo'er, if someone comes to find Zhu'er, you must remember to sue me. I'm afraid that they will take paper kites and talk nonsense, the second master of the dish is from Yanfu, and he can't make money casually. β
Only then did Lin Yun put away his dry eyes, and promised: "Don't worry, Lord Yun, if anyone comes to us, they will definitely sue you." β
Lin Duo was also busy saying, "I must sue you, but where can I see you?" β
Shumo said, "Haven't you been near the vegetable garden all the time?" If I come, I'll look for you. β
After speaking, he turned his face and saw the apricot tree under the root of the wall, the apricots on the tree were not yet ripe, but they were red and yellow, and the yellow was oozing red, and the top was the size of a fist, which was more attractive than the wheat field in front of other people's houses.
Then he said, "This apricot is big, and the treetop looks ripe, so I'll pick a few." β
Lin Duo hurriedly said: "Is this picking up apricots, or sweet beard." It's delicious. But my second uncle didn't give us much to eat. We picked up a few outside the wall. β
For her always interjecting, Lin Yun was helpless. She bent down and continued to water the cucumbers, which had to be watered before they could be mixed with noodles to eat.
Shumo turned around and went to the base of the wall, and asked as he walked, "Duo'er." Do you want to eat apricots? If you want to eat, just wait under the tree. I picked it up and threw it down, and you continued. β
The words of the closeness of the book and ink made Lin Duo happy. Promised. I walked out of the vegetable patch with a pair of heels.
Lin Yun looked at her back angrily and scolded in a low voice: "Lack of heart, see how I clean you up at night." I have to sue Grandma! β
After speaking, she lowered her head and continued to water cucumbers, she measured it with her eyes, and then watered seven or eight cucumber seedlings, her task was completed, and the rest was waiting for Lin Duo to water.
She is going to help Lin Zhu cook, and the carefree son of Jin Gongzi is a friend of Young Master Jin, so she will approach when she has the opportunity. This is a good opportunity today, but the second aunt just happened to be away.
She quickly finished watering herself, put down the bucket and walked out of the vegetable field to Lin Duo, who looked up at the treetops, and said, "Duo'er, the second aunt is not here, I'll go help Zhu'er see what to do." You go pour the rest. β
After speaking, without waiting for Lin Duo to agree, he walked back along the path on the ground lightly.
Lin Duo promised to look up at the booktops in the treetops, she didn't figure it out until now, she just looked at the vegetables under her feet and stepped them down, just in the blink of an eye, how could the booky ink have already reached the treetops?
Could it be that this handsome young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes was changed from a pine tree?
Seeing his sturdy body moving flexibly on the not thick treetops, he bent back the highest apricot branch with one hand, and picked the reddest and most yellow apricots very lightly.
I was so stunned that I was stunned, and saliva flowed down the corners of my mouth.
Shumo shouted under the tree, "Go on." β
A red apricot fell straight down, facing her very accurately, and Lin Duo hurriedly reached out to catch it.
Shumo said: "That's just the biggest one for the son, you just put it aside, and we will eat the small one." β
Lin Duo obediently put the big red apricot aside, raised his head and looked at the treetops.
The apricots are very attractive, and the posture of the calligraphy and ink on the tree is even more seductive, and it is simply more flexible than the legendary monkey, and it is a pleasure to watch.
Since I was a child, I have lived in Xiezhuang Pit, Tianmen Town, and I only went to the capital with Lin Zhu, and Lin Duo, who rarely went to the town, salivated again.
Shumo stood in the treetops, groping for apricots with one hand, and looking out of the courtyard wall.
A few feet away from the courtyard wall of the vegetable garden is a sloping slope, and at the bottom of the slope is a large pit-like residential area. The population is very dense, and there are a mixture of earth, mud, brick and tile houses, and you can see the thatched mud and black tiles of the roof, and the dilapidated yard.
His eyes were fixed on a simple and atmospheric courtyard with blue brick walls and tiles, which was like a flock of chickens and cranes. It stands out from the heights.
If you look at it from a low place, it doesn't show the mountain dew.
He lowered his head and asked, "Duo'er, is that blue brick and wall tile from Young Master Jin's house?" β
Lin Duo hurriedly said: "Exactly, my house is next door, and there are three courtyards there." β
Shumo sighed, and didn't look at the dilapidated courtyard, although there were three sets of courtyards, but it was not as good as the courtyard of one courtyard.
His eyes were staring at the courtyard of Young Master Jin's low-key connotation. The yard looks small but compact, and there is a large piece of land behind it, half an acre.
He could clearly see that there were also some green vegetables in the clearing. There seems to be a cucumber stand. A hunched old man was busy working in the fields.
The old man's hair was gray, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but he could only see that he was moving very slowly.
His eyes looked away again, maybe it was too hot, maybe they were all busy in the fields, and there were not many idlers.
He sat on the branch, threw the apricots he picked down one by one, and watched Lin Duo catch them one by one and put them on the leaves of the pear melon.
asked her, "Is there still someone guarding the door at Young Master Jin's house?" β
Lin Duo said: "Yes, he is a hunchback, deaf and dazzling, and he can't hear anything." Their gate has hardly been opened since Young Master Jin left. β
She knew this best, Lin Yun had to take a look at it every day when she came over.
Shumo asked again: "Are there any new people living around you?" β
He used as much of a homely tone as he could, sounding very kind.
Lin Duo was happy when he heard him, and hurriedly said, "No, the people living in the pit are all old residents." I heard my grandmother say that many of them fled more than ten years ago, and there were not many families living in the pit before, and even Yanfu was also an empty space. β
Shumo asked about the people around the vegetable garden, and there seemed to be no suspicious people.
But as soon as he entered the vegetable garden, not long after Jin Xiaoguang sat down, there was indeed a dazzling cold light, not only Jin Xiaoguang saw it, but he also felt it.
The owner of this cold light must be hiding around here, what kind of master is he? Where to hide?
Shumo didn't find any clues, and asked about the situation of the residents of Xiezhuang Pit. He jumped off the apricot tree lightly, and there was not a single leaf on his clothes. He politely said to Lin Duo: "Duo'er, you are busy, I'll go first." β
So he took a bunch of big red apricots back to the shade of the tree next to the house.
Lin Duo stared at his back with a pair of eyes stupidly, and after eating two small apricots, he picked up half a brick on the ground, smashed open the apricot beard, and took out the full almonds and put them in his mouth.
Continue to water the remaining cucumbers.
She has not yet reached the age when she is completely attracted to the opposite sex, but she remembers the book and ink in her heart. Always fantasizing about seeing him again. Now I not only see the book and ink that I have been thinking about for a long time, but also have such a close and intimate conversation.
She was happy in her heart, and the soles of her feet were light, and her body was full of energy. Pick up the strong arms, and do it very hard.
Dabao took over the work of burning the fire, and Lin Zhu had to carry a kettle to add water to Jin Xiaoguangyan's tea without worry. Reading Shumo, he poured out a small cloth bag of apricots and placed them on the table. Hurriedly put down the teapot in his hand, went into the kitchen and brought a plate of cool water, sprinkled a little salt in it, and brought it out to wash.
Dabao hurriedly followed out, took the basin and said, "Zhu'er, you go and help pick vegetables, I'll wash the apricots, the water is cold." β
He said without scruples, and he was willing to ......take it for granted.
It is really a happy thing to be cared for by a young man in such a meticulous way, and it is also a proud thing.
But it's a bit embarrassing to do this in front of so many people. She's a thirteen-year-old girl now, and she's ashamed.
Lin Zhu's little face instantly turned red like an apricot, which was very coquettish. She whispered very coquettishly: "Brother Dabao, you are busy with your going." On such a hot day, the water is not cold at all. β
She spoke with a twist that didn't match her age, which made her look like a girl who was just starting to fall in love.
Da Bao had a small eye, and said more seriously: "That's not good, Aunt Lin can say it when she is here, you can't dip in cold water, and it's not good if it's hot." β
Sounds like he should have done that. This is even more ambiguous and unclear.
In ancient times, people got married early, and there were many boys who were fourteen or fifteen years old and girls who were eleven or twelve. There is a suspicion of some kind of tacit acquiescence in talking like this.
Lin Zhu whispered even more: "I'm not a daughter, I'm not so pretentious." Besides, I'm just a maid, when a maid has ten fingers that don't get cold water. People are the girl's body and the maid's life, I'm good, the maid's body and the girl's life are dead. Brother Dabao, you can go busily with you, don't worry about me. (To be continued......)
