Chapter 32: Hooked

After Mama Zhu came out of Ren Yao's off-plan room, she saw Qingmei and Sydney, two maids, standing under the porch not far away, and the two seemed to be arguing quietly.

Mama Zhu frowned, walked over, lowered her voice and reprimanded: "What are you doing!" It's useless, it's all nonsense! Tomorrow, I will give you an aunt and sell you! ”

Qingmei glanced at Sydney obliquely, and sneered: "I'm afraid that someone will get a few good words from the new master, so they won't take the old master in their eyes!" People have already climbed another high branch. ”

Hearing this, Mama Zhu glanced at Sydney suspiciously.

Sydney's tears were about to fall: "Mama, don't listen to her nonsense, the slave doesn't have ......"

"None? Didn't Miss let you follow you everywhere these days, but she scolded me alone? Everyone says that you, Sydney, have become Miss's confidant like Xi'er in Mrs.'s room! When Xi'er left just now, she deliberately pulled you aside to whisper, I came to ask you, but you refused to say! You've been in this group for a long time! Qingmei gritted her teeth and raised her voice slightly.

Sydney hurriedly defended: "Xi'er just praised the good embroidery of the purse I gave her before, and I want to ......"

"Heh, you're finally exposed, aren't you? What kind of purse did you give her decently? I've been with you all day, why don't I know? Aren't you just secretly currying favor with me behind my back? It's a shame that I'm a sincere person, and I'm being tricked like this by you," Qingmei pouted.

"What the hell are you calling at night!" Mama Zhu stretched out her hand and twisted it on Qingmei's arm, Qingmei wanted to scream in pain, and she swallowed a moan in pain with a pair of Mama Zhu's glaring eyes.

Seeing that Qingmei was honest, Mama Zhu frowned and looked at Sydney. Sydney bit her lower lip, trying to say something but couldn't.

Mama Zhu originally wanted to ask, but thinking that there was something to do quickly, she held it back for the time being, only glared at the two maids and said, "I'll settle accounts with you tomorrow!" Why don't you go in and serve Miss! ”

The two maids bowed their heads and said yes.

Mama Zhu just turned around and turned her head and asked, "You went to the backyard to ask for water before, did you see Mama Liu?" ”

Sydney said in a low voice: "Before, Mama Wei invited all the grandmothers to drink, and Mama Liu drank a few more glasses and was helped back to the room by the little maid to rest." ”

Mama Zhu then remembered that Mama Wei thought that she was older than the sister-in-law Niu, and she had an angry eldest son who was the second steward in the coal stack, so she thought that she was already nine out of ten when she was this foreign affairs grandma, so she gave a voice to the people in the yard in the afternoon, and invited everyone to eat and drink in the evening.

She shirked today because she was going out to do some things, and only took Mama Wei's three-cent silver naked son to make tea money.

Mama Zhu couldn't help but sigh in her heart: I'm afraid that this Mama Wei is going to be happy in vain.

Although she thought so, after all, this matter had little to do with Mama Zhu, anyway, she also received the tea money, and Mama Wei took the initiative to give it to her, so there was no reason to spit it out again.

So Mama Zhu didn't hesitate at all, and went to Mama Liu's residence in the backyard.

When passing by an ear room in the backyard for the mother-in-law and maids to rest when they were on duty, a little light and laughter leaked out of the gap under the cotton curtain through the curtain, it should be Mama Wei and they were talking together after eating and drinking.

In the crape myrtle courtyard, it is not strictly forbidden for the maids and mothers to set up banquets in private, after all, everyone will have happy events. It's just not allowed to miss an errand because of this. Drinking is also only allowed to drink fruit wine that is not very intoxicating, and it is still limited. Mama Liu estimates that she is a very shallow drinker, so she will drink a few glasses of fruit wine.

Mama Zhu only stood by the curtain outside the ear room and listened for a while, then looked left and right, and walked towards Mama Liu's residence.

Mama Liu was sitting at the head of the bed at the moment and was being served tea by a little maid, and when she heard the sound of someone pushing the door in, she looked up, was stunned at first, and then smiled and said, "Is it Mama Zhu?" What is the wind that is blowing you? ”

Mama Zhu is close to Mama Liu's nemesis, Mama Guan, so Mama Liu's relationship with her is just average. Seeing that she came uninvited tonight, I was really a little puzzled.

With a warm smile on her face, Mama Zhu glanced at the little maid who was waiting on the side: "There are some things I want to talk to you about, so I came by myself, don't blame me for not inviting guests." ”

"How can you?" Mama Guan smiled politely and said to the little maid, "You go to the small kitchen and look at the stove, the third master will stay in the main room today, and maybe he will ask for hot water later." ”

The little maid answered.

Mama Zhu turned her head to watch the maid gently close the door, and then stepped forward with a smile: "I came here today for a good thing." ”

"A good thing?" Mama Liu was puzzled.

Mama Zhu nodded, getting closer and closer: "I heard that you also wanted Mama's errand for foreign affairs before?" ”

Mama Liu smiled when she heard this: "Mama Zhu's news is well-informed. ”

Mama Zhu shook her head and smiled: "Don't be weird with me, I only want to ask you one thing today, do you still want this errand?" ”

Hearing this, Mama Liu said suspiciously: "What does Mama Zhu mean by this?" Didn't you say that Mama Wei or Sister-in-law Niu had already been decided? Mama Wei's winning face should be bigger. ”

Mama Zhu pursed her lips: "I'll tell you the truth, Mrs. plans to set two foreign affairs grandmothers down first, and then choose one of these two grandmothers to take over officially after the year." This sister-in-law is one, and the other is ...... The other one is still undecided. ”

Mama Liu was startled and sat up slightly straight: "Is this true?" That Mama Wei ......"

"Hey, what do you care so much about him? Just tell me if you want to be the difference. Mama Liu waved her hand and smiled slightly, her face was unfathomable, as if who wanted this errand was just a matter of her words.

Mama Liu pondered for a while, and said with some doubts: "You have a way?" ”

Mama Zhu smiled again and did not speak, but she looked tacit.

Mama Liu has been thinking about it for a longer time, to be honest, who of the second-class grandma in the newly vacated courtyard is not red-eyed? But now that the third wife is back, this matter is ultimately decided by the third wife, but they have no friendship with the third wife, even if they want to go the way, there is no way.

It's just that......

"Why don't you talk to Mama Guan about this? I remember that the two of you have always had a good relationship. "Mama Liu is not stupid, and after thinking about it carefully, I feel that something is wrong.

Mama Zhu seemed to have expected her to ask such a question, and said with an unhurried smile: "Even if I have some ways, I need to consider the master, Mama Guan has some personal relations with me, but unfortunately her nephew is really a mud that can't support the wall." You must also know that although this errand of the foreign affairs grandmother is very oily, but our third master is a refinement, if there is a leak in the errand, I will be responsible for the recommendation, and I dare not recommend ordinary people. I looked at the courtyard, except for Mama Wei's eldest son, who is your Mama Liu's second son. ”

Mama Liu was very comfortable when she heard this, and her defense against Mama Zhu was not so deep: "Then Mama Wei ......"

Mama Zhu smiled silently.

Mama Liu remembered that Mama Wei invited everyone to drink today, but Mama Zhu didn't go, wondering if there was any holiday between the two? Or is it that Aunt Fang, Mama Zhu's master, is not very satisfied with Mama Wei?

Mama Zhu had been paying attention to Mama Liu's expression, seeing that she was a little shaken, and seemed to have some doubts, her eyes rolled, and she suddenly patted her thigh: "Hey! Well, I'll show you some truth. You have been coming to our crape myrtle courtyard for some time, and you should know that our fifth lady is the most favored in front of the third master! And although the matter of this backyard is said to be the wife's decision, everyone knows that as long as the third master says a word, the wife will never say a word. ”

Mama Liu pondered Mama Zhu's words, and seemed to have some understanding: "You mean to let the fifth lady ...... at the third master's"

"Shhhh ”

Mama Liu pondered for a moment: "I know the rules of the yard, presumably Mama you also need to take care of it, I don't know how much ...... it takes to do it" Mama Liu made a gesture.

Mama Zhu was very pleased with Mama Liu's approach, and pretended to hesitate: "It stands to reason that I shouldn't open this mouth, but as you expected...... I still need to take care of this. What about this number? Mama Zhu made a gesture of twenty, which meant that she wanted twenty taels of silver.

Mama Liu was silent for a long time, twenty taels of silver is not a few, but she is not unable to take it out, not to mention that if she can really get this errand, she can do a few things for the third master and the money will come back, and she can also let the youngest son of the family show his face.

It's just that if it doesn't work out...... This silver......

Mama Zhu seemed to be a roundworm in Mama Liu's stomach, and immediately smiled: "In this way, you give a fixed amount of five taels first, and you will pay the rest when I finish this matter tomorrow?" I'll also give you a receipt for these five taels. "Mama Zhu is a white wolf with empty gloves, so she is full of confidence.

Mama Liu was stunned for a moment, feeling that if this was the case, there was naturally nothing to worry about, if the matter did not work out in the end, she had a receipt in her hand, and even five taels of silver could be returned.

If she didn't take advantage of this bargain, she would have lived for so many years in vain, so Mama Liu immediately smiled and said: "Mama Zhu is sincere, I am naturally a cheerful person, so it's decided." ”

Mama Zhu covered her mouth and smiled, but she was proud in her heart.

Mama Liu got out of bed and turned out five taels of silver from the bottom of her wardrobe, and Mama Zhu went to call the maid to get the pen and paper, she couldn't write, but the words of the money exchange between them and the mother-in-law and maid in the house secretly have their own terminology and symbols, as long as the numbers are on the number, the most common one is to press the handprint.

When the two finally separated, they were all happy.
