Fifty-fifth
Shen Wanzhen and Mrs. Zhan returned to the house, it was already mid-night, the candle in the bright room of the second room was still on, and as soon as Xiuju heard movement in the courtyard, the master of Zhilu Dao came back, and hurriedly greeted him, gossiping, "Master, what is the palace like?" Qiao Shan's mouth is fast.
"What do you eat at the palace banquet?" Feng'er asked curiously.
Crowd the master into the door,
"The palace is very big, the palace banquet food flies in the sky, runs on the ground, swims in the water, it is the same thing, the method is not the same, there are many things that have not been eaten, never seen, the people in the palace live a fairy-like life." Shen Wanzhen said in her mouth, but she thought in her heart that she would never want to step into the palace gate again in this life.
As soon as the curtain was lifted, the heat was suffocating, the coat could not be worn, Shen Wanzhen was only wearing a middle coat, the hot water had already been prepared, even the quilt was put away, and it was warm with her hands, and the soup woman had already covered it hot, Shen Wanzhen thought that these maids were really powerful, and when they were old, they would not let them be wronged, and hire a decent couple to let them live a good life.
Generally, the maids who marry with the girl are ready to make room for their uncle in the future, but they can't let Zhan Shaoting get involved and waste it.
The men in this life have a group of wives and concubines, like King Anyang, who registered three women at a time, and is more useful than Zhan Shaoting.
How could I think of this person plainly, Shen Wanzhen was washing her face at the moment, picking up a handful of water, but she paused, she was funny in her heart, she washed it hastily, climbed onto the kang, and fell asleep comfortably.
The next day, in the west courtyard of the second room, Shang Xiang got up early to go to the well platform to fetch water, and it happened that the maid Yu'er with the red paper also came out with a basin, and the two of them went in one direction, running along the edge of the well, almost to the side of the well platform together, Yu'er reached out to grab the bucket half a step first, and at the same time, Shang Xiang also stretched out his hand, and the two grabbed the rope on the bucket together, and they both grabbed it, refusing to let go, the master was not in harmony, and the slave and maid were not in harmony.
"Let go." Shang Xiang was originally a big girl in the second room, and she was very proud of Aunt Ying for a while, and she didn't want to be down-and-out later, but no matter how she was down, she couldn't look down on a little girl like Yu'er.
Yu'er didn't think so, now the same master, naturally the same slave, who is angry with whom, listening to Shang Xiang's anger, he also came up with a temper, and said: "I came first, I should fetch water first, why should I let you?" ”
Shang Xiang listened to her bad tone, so she didn't talk nonsense with her, and pulled hard, Yu'er had little strength, the bucket was pulled by Shang Xiang, and she flashed, the well platform slipped, Yu'er slipped out of her feet, couldn't stand, slipped backwards, and squatted.
Shang Xiang didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, fetched a bucket of water, carried it away, and ignored her.
Yu'er's fall was not light, she couldn't get up all of a sudden, when Shangxiang left, she slowly got up, held her waist, the basin was thrown out of the distance, she moved to the basin step by step, bent down hard, picked up the basin, the water couldn't hit, it seemed that her waist was twisted, she didn't dare to work hard, so she limped back with the empty basin.
In the past few days of the New Year, she is dressed up beautifully, and she will join the little sisters who enter the house, and there are not many little sisters like her who are mixed in the room, and most of them are still waiting for people, so she takes this opportunity to show off.
After waiting for a long time and not seeing Yu'er come back from fetching water, he was a little impatient, and picked up the rhinoceros horn grate on the dresser as if he was angry and forcefully ran through his hair.
As soon as the outer door rang, the red note said loudly in the inner room: "Fetch water for so long a day." ”
Seeing Yu'er enter the door, she pulled the empty basin, put her hands on her waist, walked carefully, as if she didn't dare to be hard, and looked at her strangely, "What's wrong?" It's good to go out of the city, and become like this, do you want my master to wait for you? ”
Yu'er grinned, pouted and said aggrievedly: "The slave and maid went to fetch water first, and Shang Xiang came later, but he rushed to fight first, pushed the slave and maid down, and fell on the well platform." ”
The red note is a straight temper, and when he heard it, he became angry, "What? She beat you, you dead? I don't have long hands, and I make people fight like this, and I lose all my face. ”
The more he talked, the more angry he became, and he stood up, "Let's go, go to her." ”
In the next few days of the Zhan Mansion, the daily family banquet continued, Aunt Ying was happy to eat, and yesterday she was greedy and ate two more bites, but when the banquet was halfway through, she felt her stomach stir and went back early.
didn't wait to get to the second room, as soon as she got out of the flower hall door, she couldn't help it, she vomited, but she vomited all the way and barely supported her to be helped back by Shangxiang.
As soon as she entered the door, there was a burst of vomiting, and her stomach was empty, so that she felt better, Aunt Ying was lying on the edge of the kang, her head drooping under the edge of the kang, not moving, Shang Xiang saw that she was uncomfortable, and thought that she was probably finished, and went to the outside to serve the teapot, the water inside was warm, so she poured a cup, meaning to let her rinse her mouth, but Aunt Ying was hit by the water, only drank half a mouthful, and spit it out, Shang Xiang saw that she had nothing else to vomit except water, and said worriedly: "Seeing the sky and vomiting, it's not a thing, the young lady went to the palace, and the slave maid went back to the young lady tomorrow morning to invite the doctor to come." ”
Tossed like this for a night, Shang Xiang fetched water in, Aunt Ying felt greasy in her mouth, rinsed her mouth with green salt, just took the saliva, her stomach churned again, and the water in her mouth spit out all of a sudden, bluffing Shang Xiang, and whispered: "The slave maid doesn't look like she has eaten bad stomach, no matter how she drinks water, she vomits, is it that the medicine has eaten bad stomach." ”
Aunt Ying frowned, her small facial features were all together, she thought about it, and said suspiciously: "Maybe I took that medicine and ate my stomach." ”
Shang Xiang suddenly remembered what Hu San said when she gave her the medicine, and said to Aunt Ying: "I remember, then Hu San said that this medicine can't be taken often, I think it's been a long time." ”
As soon as Aunt Ying wanted to speak, she heard the noise outside, "Come out, Shangxiang's little hooves come out." ”
As soon as the master and servant heard the sound of red notes, Shang Xiang had a ghost in her heart, and she didn't dare to go out, so she wanted to hide behind Aunt Ying.
"Shangxiang little hoof, hiding there?" With the sound, the red note came in with her waist crossed, followed by Yu'er who was covering her waist.
"Sister, why is that? Early morning noise. Aunt Ying said with a cold face.
"It's not your good maid yet, you ask her, what did you just do?" The red note pointed to Shang Xiang behind Aunt Ying.
Aunt Ying held back her anger and turned around and asked Shang Xiang, "What's the matter?" ”
Shang Xiang told him about the water.
Aunt Ying looked at the red note and said in her heart, I fell to this point and even bullied me as a slut, and after putting up with you for a few days, you still have to lose face.
turned around and scolded Shang Xiang and said, "Idiot, what are you hiding?" Could it be that she ate you, with me, who would dare to do anything to you? ”
Say it, turn around, straighten your chest and take two steps forward, and say proudly to the red note: "If you have the ability to beat me, why bother with my maid, my maid was taught by me, and you came at me." ”
As she spoke, she moved forward to fight her, but the red note looked at her inconspicuous belly, took two steps back, and said stiffly: "You are indulging in people?" ”
"My master is just protecting the short, what's the matter? If you have the ability, you come at me. "Say it, step by step.
The red note was so frightened that she stepped back step by step, for fear that she would really bump into it, and the fetus in her womb would be so bad that she couldn't tell if she had a mouth.
Aunt Ying really thought so in her heart, just heard Shang Xiang say that there was something wrong with this medicine, so she thought that she couldn't take it, but she had to find a reason, Shen Wanzhen was weird, it seemed that she couldn't get a bargain, although she hated her deeply, but she couldn't find a chance, and her stomach couldn't wait.
had a plan, provoked her with words, and the two of them did it, but the red note was not stupid, it seemed to see her thoughts, so she bluffed, and didn't dare to really do anything with her, Aunt Ying secretly thought, she couldn't miss the opportunity, she was desperate, she just planned to rush up regardless of it, hit her, and then fell backwards, and claimed that the fetus had fallen on the second day, and the fool of the red note couldn't think that her pregnancy was fake.
At this moment, there was a voice outside, "Miss Ying." ”
The door was pushed open, and it was the maid in Mrs. Zhan's house, Liuli, who came into the house, and saw that several people were standing, with wrong faces, looking at this face, looking at that face, and wondering; "Why are you standing, is something happening?"
"Nothing." Aunt Ying covered up, retracted her castration, and said in her heart: It's really unfortunate, just one step late, and I was done.
The red note looked at Aunt Fang Caiying's eyes as if she was about to pounce up, and she regretted in her heart, she shouldn't have sent it to the door, she was pregnant with the flesh and blood of the second master, how dare she touch her, this slut knew this, Fang Cai actually wanted to come up and fight with herself, fortunately Liuli entered the door, otherwise she would have lost her face, she didn't think about it deeply, how could she not think that Aunt Ying didn't just want to practice her, but had a deeper calculation.
The red note was frightened, and he didn't dare to stay, so he took Yu'er to the door of the house while the glass girl didn't leave.
When he was about to go out, he glared at Shang Xiang and said in his heart: Now that you are protected by your master, your little hoof's business is not over today, and sooner or later you will know how powerful your aunt and grandmother are.
Hongjian quickly walked to the door of the east wing, and when he looked back, he saw that Yu'er was far behind, and her walking posture was ridiculous, and she stomped her feet with hatred.
This Liuli said to Aunt Ying: "The Tai Hospital will be closed until the sixth day of the new year, and the lady said, and the seventh day of the new year will invite the royal doctor of the Tai Hospital to come over and take a look at the aunt." ”
Aunt Ying was so frightened that she felt a pimple in her heart. Xindao: It's the royal doctor again, last time, he almost saw through it, and this time he came again, if he really found out, the consequences would be unimaginable.
She barely managed to keep the smile on her face and sent Ruri away.
Shang Xiang looked at her nervously and said, "Master, how is this good?" The slave maid stopped seeing the medicine, and when the imperial doctor came, he said that he had misdiagnosed. ”
Aunt Ying sat on the edge of the kang, twisting a handkerchief in her hand, and said for a long time: "You will have to go out of the capital to ask Hu San what is going on, it just so happens that people can move around in the next year, so you can go back to the countryside Zhuangzi to see." This ready-made reason sounds reasonable.
Shang Xiang waited for Aunt Ying to have breakfast, and when she was done, she went to ask Mrs. Fu for leave, saying that she was going to the countryside to Zhuangzi, and the Fu family was not suspicious, and instructed: "Your master and servant have stayed in Zhuangzi for a year, you should go to see it, but go early and return early, and the city gate will be closed early in the next year." ”
Shang Xiang agreed, went out of the house, hired a car with the silver money given by Aunt Ying, and went to the town to find Hu San first.
Hu Sanjie is not idle, there is a big family wife taking advantage of the chaos in the year, doing tricks and feet, doing yin and bad things, on him this medicine, when I heard someone knocking on the door, I was happy, business came again, to open the door to see, saw that it was Shang Xiang who came in, his face was slightly disappointed, not surprised, said, "Is your master still taking medicine?" ”
"I came to ask about this, my master vomited when he saw the sky, did he eat his stomach and intestines." Shang Xiang asked.
Hu San's eyes rolled, and he followed her words and said, "Didn't you tell you when I gave you medicine?" You can't take this medicine for a long time, and if you take too much, you will be sick. ”
Shang Xiang listened to what he said, and thought about it carefully, he reminded himself, so he had nothing to say and said goodbye.
I went around to Zhuangzi along the way, went around in a circle, and went back to Bofu.
Shang Xiang entered the door of Bofu, and it was dark at the door of the second room, and the road was narrow.
Shang Xiang bypassed the rich peony glazed wall and almost bumped into a person, who didn't say a word, raised his hand and gave her a crisp ear scraper.
The red note withdrew his hand and scolded: "Dog minion, blind." ”
Shang Xiang was a little stupid, followed Aunt Ying, Aunt Ying didn't even move a finger of herself, and it took a long time to see clearly the smug face on the red note, and then saw Yu'er standing behind her master, looking at her and wishing in her heart.
Shang Xiang covered her face, ran back to the West Wing, swallowed her grievances in her stomach at the door, and then raised her feet to enter the house.
Aunt Ying just stared at her for a while, she had eaten plain all day, her stomach was calm, she was not uncomfortable, she had a little spirit, sat up, and didn't dare to go to the family banquet to eat, she didn't dare to go to the family banquet to eat, she was thinking that Shang Xiang would come back to the room to take leave, Shang Xiang came in the door, Aunt Ying was about to instruct her, she was stunned for a moment, stared at her face tightly, Shang Xiang was beaten by the red note and five fingerprints were clearly left on her face.
Aunt Ying was surprised: "What's wrong with your face?" Let people hit? ”
Shang Xiang sat on the edge of the kang and bowed her head and wept, she couldn't hide it when she saw it, and said, "The red girl beat it." ”
"You are my maid, why did she beat you? What are you guilty of in her hands? Aunt Ying was furious.
"The slave came back from the Zhuangzi, and as soon as she entered the door, the girl on the red note went out, it was dark, and she couldn't see clearly, and she almost bumped into me accidentally, and she slapped me." Shang Xiang wiped her tears and said aggrievedly.
"It's okay, if you are at fault, she should come and tell me, I am the master's discipline, she hit you, I don't know that I have trespassed." Aunt Ying said angrily.
"She said that even the slave and the maid have no rules, no wonder the slave and the maid have no rules, saying that she disciplines the slave and the maid for the master." Shang Xiang deliberately added some words and brought Aunt Ying with her.
"This is worth it, the second room is in chaos, I will go to the upper room to find the Shen family's comment, if you don't give me justice, I will find the second master and his wife to call the shots." Aunt Ying said, let's really go out.
Shang Xiang was wronged, hoping that someone would avenge her grievances, and she would not stop her master.
Shen Wanzhen early in the morning, was sent by the young lady Zhao to send an errand, Ming'er Bo's Mansion to invite foreign guests, Zhao was too busy to work, and she helped Zhang Luo Ming'er banquet, Ming'er was a lot of people, she thought that the tables and chairs were probably not enough, and now she brought people out of the warehouse to usually not use, the dishes and chopsticks are also prepared according to the head point, the wine is prepared in advance, in order to avoid Ming'er being busy, the pigs, cows, sheep, chickens and ducks that should be made, let the big kitchen cook first, the vegetables are fresh, Ming'er is sent in the morning, and the banquet is opened in the evening, and it is too late to stir-fry.
One by one, Shen Wanzhen came back to change her clothes, and prepared to go to the flower hall to eat and drink, just took a breath, and before she drank a sip of tea, the little maid said back and forth, "Aunt Ying has something to ask to see the hostess." ”
As soon as Shen Wanzhen heard that it was her, she didn't plan to see her, who knew what she was doing, and said to Xiuju: "You go out to see her, take her away, and say that I am tired, unwell, and resting." ”
Embroidered chrysanthemum went out, Aunt Ying expected that Shen Wanzhen would not see her, and when she saw embroidered chrysanthemum coming out, embroidered chrysanthemum said: "The master is not feeling well, he is lying down, what is the matter with the girl, wait for the master to be empty, and the slave will return for you." ”
Aunt Ying told her maid Shangxiang how to come to her house to find trouble and find fault with her, and said the last few words: "The girl is judging for me, should she do it?" I don't believe it, there is no royal law yet, the young lady doesn't care, there is still the second master, and the lady, I can't say that everyone has no face. ”
Xiuju said with a smile: "The difference between the girl's words, the girl on the red note is the master, Shang Xiang is the maid's subordinate, the subordinate collided with the master, slapped him, and found the lady, and there was no reason to beat the master for a slave, the big deal is that the lady said that the girl on the red note is arrogant, what can I do?" It's the second master, the girl on the red note is the person next to the pillow, is it better to be a maid, aunt think about it, is this the reason? ”
Xiu Ju said something that made Aunt Ying blink, thinking about it, she didn't go if she lost, if she went, she wouldn't win, but she called the little hooves of the red note proud.
No matter how I thought about it, I was aggrieved in my heart, and complained: "There is a housewife in the second room, but it makes people suffer this grievance, and there are no rules." ”
When Xiuju heard this, she blamed the master, and said with a heavy face: "Who said that there are no rules in the second room, and the master is blamed for being a slave and maid, and the girl's slave and maid are also slaves. ”
Aunt Ying listened to this girl's words as if she had scolded her, and she couldn't find anything to refute, so she left angrily.
Xiuju returned to the house and told the story, Shen Wanzhen smiled and said: "You maid is also unforgiving now. ”
"This is all forced, otherwise in this mansion, my master and servant will be bullied, and even an aunt dares to question the master, what rules do you have? I don't have any rules first. Xiuju said angrily.
Aunt Ying was angry and forgot about the leave, scolded Shen Wanzhen a few times in her heart, and walked back to the house.
As soon as Shang Xiang saw the master's gloomy face, he knew that he had touched a nail.
Aunt Ying asked Shang Xiang to tell the big kitchen and send her meals, but I didn't know if it would happen, I was afraid that there were many masters in the house, and the big kitchen was busy, and no one paid attention to whether she had an aunt to eat.
Aunt Ying vomited for a small day, and then went to the room to provoke anger, half-leaning on the bed, waiting for the big kitchen to bring dinner, but Zuo couldn't wait, and she couldn't wait for the person who delivered the meal, so she asked Shang Xiang to go out to see.
Shang Xiang came back and said, "The flower hall has already opened, I think the big kitchen forgot about it." "Now that there are a lot of entertainment after the festival, there are banquets to be undertaken, and the big kitchen can't cope with it, so you can still take this little thing to heart.
"You go and see, urge me, and say that I am hungry, and the child in my belly is also hungry." Aunt Ying was afraid that she would say that she was like no one to take care of her last time, so she pointed to the piece of meat in her stomach.
Shang Xiang just wanted to go out, "come back" Aunt Ying called her again, Shang Xiang stopped, "I'd better go!" It may not work if you go. ”
Aunt Ying recalled Shang Xiang and walked to the big kitchen in the house by herself, quickly walked to the door, and saw the two mothers-in-law carrying a big food box, as if going to the front yard, thinking that it must be the masters who want to eat wine and ask for something, listening to the two of them talking while walking, one of the mothers-in-law said: "The second young lady commands people to cook the meat out, feed it into the flavor, prepare the Ming'er pot stove is not enough, tomorrow morning the green vegetables are sent, now picked, washed, fried on the stove, do not delay the work at all, save Ming'er busy, this year's banquet in the house more guests than in previous years, all in one day, in case of where is not complete, The above is to blame again. ”
The two men walked away as they spoke.
Aunt Ying entered the door to see, there was no one in the big kitchen, the cooks were busy, leaving a few to pass the front to eat and drink temporarily, and the rest of the day was tired, and they also found a place to eat and wipe a few cards.
Aunt Ying saw that the kitchen was empty, and she called twice, but there was no movement, and she saw that there was hot air in more than a dozen cauldrons on the stove, and the fragrance of meat hit her nose.
Walking over, I lifted a big pot, and cooked more than a dozen fat chickens, which were stuffy, and lifted a big iron pot next to it to cook a large pot full of pig's trotters.
Not to mention the pig's trotters, that is, the soup is oily and bright, which is grottonous, and the saliva of Aunt Ying is teased, and I want to take a few pig's trotters back to gnaw, so I look for guys everywhere, and I saw an empty white background blue flower large porcelain bowl on the stove, take it, scoop up a few pig's trotters with a colander, and put them in a big bowl.
Aunt Ying took just two steps, suddenly remembered the words of the two mothers-in-law, and said in her heart: Shen Wanzhen helped take care of the banquet guests' wine and food, thinking of this, her eyes rolled, and she turned back, put down the bowl in her hand, listened to no movement outside, and walked to the door to look out, there was no one around.
I went to the stove and took a jar of salt, grabbed a handful and put it in a pot for cooking meat, it was not enough, and grabbed a few large handfuls and sprinkled them into the pot.
Aunt Ying just left on the front foot, and a mother-in-law came back from the east on the back foot, thinking about eating wine for a while, but without food, she wanted to fish out two pig's trotters, and looked at the stove, the big bowl that had just been washed was gone, and she muttered: "This time the effort was taken and used." ”
took out another guy, lifted the lid of the cauldron, scooped up two pig's trotters, and walked away, the woman gnawed on two pig's trotters with wine, but she didn't find that it was salty, and Aunt Ying's salt had just been sprinkled into the pot, and it hadn't tasted yet.
Aunt Ying returned to the house with a big bowl, Shang Xiang took it, smelled it and said with a smile: "The master got it there, it smells really fragrant." "Eat, don't I'@7, there's a good show to watch tomorrow." VVwVV,,,"Say, Aunt Ying washed her hands, and Shang Xiang gnawed it clean, and after gnawing the pig's trotters, she couldn't help but tell Shang Xiang about sprinkling salt in the pot just now, Shang Xiang was a little scared, "What if the young lady Ming'er finds out, what can I do?" Aunt Ying said proudly: "How can you check?" She never dreamed I'd been. "Xindao: Shen Yanzhen makes you proud, Ming'er has a banquet in Zhan Mansion for officials and dignitaries, see how you make a difference?
