Chapter 99: Awkward

"Sister Chunying, Miss doesn't seem to be very happy these days. The corners of the mouth are smiling, and the eyes are smiling, but no matter how you look at it, it feels far-fetched. What is this called? That's right, it's not a good thing to 'smile but not smile'. ”

Lu Fu squatted next to the well, rolled up her cuffs high, held the jujube wood pestle for pounding clothes in one hand, and raised the other hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand. It's hot, and if you move a little, you'll be covered in sweat. The thin fabric was wet and stuck to the back, making people uncomfortable.

In order to let Chunying, who was spinning around to draw water, hear her clearly, she deliberately stopped and raised her head to greet Chunying.

"Half-, nonsense. Those words are scolding those villains who have different hearts and bad intentions, how can they be used on Miss? Chunying gasped slightly, and took the time to turn around and call her to help.

Lu Fu belched, it was not the first time she had said the wrong thing, and she didn't care at all. Standing up with a hula, his wet hand wiped the inside and out of his apron, only to find that his other hand was still holding a pestle for pounding clothes. was about to put down his past helper, but saw Xiangluo coming from Miss Ran's house. Still holding a wooden basin in his hand, seeing that Chunying was struggling to fetch water, the basin was put on the ground, and he rolled up his sleeves to take the lead.

"Busy with your going." After that, together with Chunying, he carried out a bucket full of well water.

When the water splashed in the bucket when it landed, it splashed out, and it was refreshing and sprinkled on the ground, and I was not afraid of getting my clothes wet. At this time, it was so hot that my brain was sweating, and my body was stained with this cool well water, but I felt refreshed.

Chunying stood up with her waist and thanked her with a smile. Seeing that another maid in Miss Ran's house, Binju, lifted the curtain and followed out, he guessed that Miss Ran had also stopped at this time.

"Sister Chunying and Green Fu are also there." Binju held the box with bath beans in his hand, greeted someone, and called Xiangluo, and the two turned around and went to fetch water.

It's all about taking this time to wash clothes for their own girls. After washing and drying in the yard, it can be dried in half an hour under the sun. In the middle of summer, this job is the most pleasing to the maids. It's cool and the errand is easy.

Unlike in the cold winter wax moon, when you rub your clothes, you can freeze your palms numb in three or two clicks. If it is cracked, only a little bit of ice water is touched, it is a hot and scorching pain. It can torture people with hideous faces and gasp again and again.

The four girls got together, and they naturally talked lively.

Lu Fu put the washed gauze skirt into the vermilion lacquer basin in front of Chunying, and took out a moon-white silk sock from the basket behind her. Wipe a handful of bath beans with your hands, and scrub them very neatly in your hands.

"Hey, the smell of this bath bean is so good." Bin Ju beside him wrinkled his nose and sniffed, "Isn't there musk added to it?" ”

Bath beans are a good thing. Ordinary people, noble people, can't leave on weekdays. The difference is only made by the powerful people, and there are many good spices added to it. For a large family that is more particular, just a taste of spices can cover the annual ration of an ordinary family of five.

Something like musk is even more common. Shejing is full of high-quality goods that grab their heads. Binju didn't want her own girl to come out of the general's mansion and couldn't use it, but this seven girls from an ordinary background, she looked at everything on weekdays, and the objects she used were so exquisite.

If it weren't for the fact that she had seen the little peach next to her lady in Beijing and used it when she was doing laundry, she would smell a little familiar with the smell, and she was afraid that she would not be able to recognize it. I heard that the box of bath beans was still rewarded by the old man on the peak, and Mrs. especially liked it. I don't know where the seventh girl's half of the box came from.

Chunying didn't want Binju to recognize her, so she hurriedly grabbed her words before Lufu spoke. "Where is the musk, or it smells a little like it, but the second master of the house bought it from the Hu traffickers. It's not worth a few dollars, just make it fresh. ”

Lu Fu pounded the clothes and pestle, and what Chunying said, she nodded in agreement. Guan The bath beans sent by the adult, I didn't see how rare the girl was. How to make the bath beans used before, how to make them now.

Binju Fox glanced suspiciously at Lu Fu's feet, and opened most of the carved wooden box. The material is very ordinary, and the lid of the box is carved with the common rich peony. Looking at her grinning again, she didn't care, and her fingertips were a pit the size of her thumb, and when she thought about it, she felt that she had guessed wrong. So he smiled, praised the taste, and didn't mention it again.

"Neither girl had a lunch break in the yard. What time do the Seven Girls usually get up? The girls get up to eat tea, and Sister Chunying doesn't have to go to the room to ask for water, I will pass a message for you in the past, and ask the mothers-in-law on the stove to prepare boiling water. "In the same room, they get along harmoniously, and they always have help in their errands.

Looking up at the sun, Chunying estimated that it was still early. "In Shenshi's class, the girl always gets up half an hour early. If you pass, let me know on your behalf. ”

Xiangluo belched and agreed, doing the work in her hands, and laughed about the new things in the girls' school.

"What's going on with the two girls in our house, others don't know, you and I should always know. The girl went to the ashram without being punished for four days in a row, and it was like a rare thing, and the whole women's school spread all over it. The girl in Yuxinzhai next door also said, this is my young lady, watching the seventh girl work hard, and her heart is anxious. So the fire was in a hurry, and he was suffocated all night. ”

The girl who had no heart or lungs to join in the fun, hehe. Only Chunying seemed to guess in her heart, knowing that the girl was unhappy with the world. Is that the girl who never wants to see his own girl since then, so he doesn't recruit people to go to the backyard?

Seeing that the girl has been smiling outside recently, she is gentle and gentle, and she is also kind to people. I only went back to the house, but I was holding a book, curled up on the couch alone, I could not move for most of the day, I was extremely quiet, and I didn't like to talk. There are fewer times to be funny with them, and the whole person seems to have become a lot less aura overnight.

Chunying's eyes swept over the box containing the bath beans and sighed secretly. She couldn't help with that at all. If that one is not satisfied, it is rare for his own girl to even see the son. If the door is too far apart, it means that the girl has a good meaning in her heart, and no one can see it, so what's the use?

is also worried about this, as well as the seven girls in the house who pretend to be asleep.

In the crow-blue soft tent, the seventh girl was lying on her side on the couch. With his eyes open, facing inside, he was faintly anxious.

That day, he punished her and stood at the bottom of the building, until her legs and feet were a little weak, and the man's deep voice came from the house. simply told her to go back on her own, and after that, she didn't see the summons for several days.

It was only then that it dawned on her that if he refused to see her, he really didn't need to say a word. It's just that the person before treated her leniently and was unusually easy to talk to, so that she almost forgot that she and him had always had the final say.

The little hand clasped the brocade quilt, pursed his lips, and unconsciously gave birth to some grievances. said that the prince treated her unusually, which really angered him, and he didn't see any difference. didn't drive her out of the house, coldly threw a sentence of "go back", she still left her books in his room, and she was impatient for a moment, and she was not allowed to enter the door.

Wrapped in a quilt and turned over. Feeling the heat, he kicked the cold quilt at the end of the bed.

Why is it so difficult to serve the son?! I won't stop until I get angry.
