It has to be said that Ma's movements are fast. On the second day after she met Qingshu, she prepared a few snacks and solemnly invited Gu Yunfu, who was recuperating at home, to come over for a drink.

Seeing Ma Shi bow his head again, Gu Yunfu was proud. In Gu Li's marriage, Ma had already bowed to him once. Ma said that Gu Li Xu gave the first family son, as long as he nodded and agreed, did not object, and did not make trouble, the dowry sent by the first family, the silver would be spent by him, and the things would be distributed by Ma.

He thought it was a good idea. The Wu Mansion is over, and now he can't find other rich people to let Gu Li out, and it doesn't hurt to promise to come down, but there is always money to take it. So, for the sake of thirty taels of silver, he agreed. Today, Ma is going to invite him to drink again, and he feels that he has another benefit. As soon as I was in a good mood, I felt that the injuries on my body were not so painful.

One day later, Ma quit the rented yard and moved to the yard bought by Gu Yunfu with his belongings and children. Immediately afterwards, Ma Zhang Luo started marrying a daughter. In this way, in the eyes of outsiders, Ma and Gu Yunfu have finally reconciled.

Hearing this news, Su's mother was very worried, and went to Qingshu to talk, "Miss, when Master Fu and his wife were stiff, the old slave thought, their husband and wife are busy competing, and there should be less time to disturb Miss, and Miss's ears can be much cleaner, which is good." Now, they are so good that they are afraid that they will come to the house from time to time to make trouble. Miss, you have to think of countermeasures in advance, don't suffer losses. As she spoke, she rubbed her hands together from time to time with a worried face.

Qing Shu was originally sitting at the table drinking tea. Seeing that Mother Su was so troubled, she put down the cup, walked over from the chair, and hugged Mother Su's arm and shook it in Mama Su's puzzled gaze, "Mama Su is so good, everything is in front for Qingshu." ”

"Oh Miss, you can't be like this, this makes outsiders look at it, but how is it good?" Su's mother said this, but the joy between her eyebrows and eyes couldn't be hidden.

Qing Shu shamefully began to be coquettish, "There are no outsiders here, don't be afraid, don't be afraid." When she got outside, Qing Shu must be very well-behaved, keeping in mind Su's mother's teachings, she will definitely not lose the face of our house, and her words and deeds, appearance and bearing will definitely make people find fault with her. ”

Su's mother was coaxed to be happy, "Hey, hey, that's how it should be,"

Qing Shu coaxed Su's mother with a few words, and made Su's mother, who was worried, happily go back to work.

Xiao Juan stared at Qing Shu with admiration, "Miss, you are so amazing." ”

Qing Shu deliberately made a smug expression, raised his chin, and then straightened his face and warned Xiao Juan, "Remember, no matter what news comes out from Master Fu's side, whether you are angry or happy, take care of your mouth, don't talk to people everywhere." In any case, the blood relationship cannot be changed, and you can not communicate with each other, but you can't go around talking about the rights and wrongs over there, which makes people laugh. ”

"Miss, the slave remembers. The slave only tells the young lady what she has, not to others, and the young lady can rest assured. After that, Xiaojuan asked with a smirk, "Miss, the slave maid eats a piece of meat at night, is it okay?" ”

Qing Shu, who was about to praise Xiaojuan, listened to it, and was almost choked by the tea that had just been drunk in his mouth. The two maids beside her, one is too honest and the other is too gluttonous, how can she, the master, not worry about their future! She has been struggling and worrying about their lives after they get married. What should I do if I think about being bullied by my in-laws who are too honest? I also thought about what if I was overly gluttonous and was rejected and bullied by my in-laws because it was not a problem?

In order to prevent this from happening, she thought about giving the two maids to the people in the house. Xiaoyu with Zhang Da, she thinks it's good, but she's worried that it's just her wishful thinking. Zhang Da may be interested in Xiaoyu, but she really can't see whether Xiaoyu is interesting to Zhang Da, so she didn't point Xiaoyu to Zhang Da for a long time. As for Xiaojuan, she said all day long that she would follow her to eat meat and not marry, so she didn't dare to mess with the mandarin duck score, so she could only drag it day by day.

Qing Shu gave Xiao Juan a look of hatred for iron and steel, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came of mind, called Xiao Juan to him, and whispered a few words to Xiao Juan.

Xiao Juan listened, her eyes glared at the boss, "Miss, this, this ......"

Qing Shu glared at her, "What is this, why don't you go and do something quickly?" ”

Xiao Juan hesitated, looking around like a thief. There was no one else in the room except her and the young lady. But she was still not at ease, and asked in a very low voice, "Miss, you let the slave and maid lie, and the slave and maid will say." It's just that what if the slave makes the little fish cry? ”

Qing Shu said angrily, "I asked you to find out her true thoughts, and I didn't want you to make her cry." Don't talk nonsense anymore and get to work. ”

Xiaojuan's face was entangled, and she asked carefully, "Miss, slave maid, slave maid is looking for Mother Su, let Mother Su help with the recruitment, is it okay?" ”

Qing Shu has no opinion on this, "Look at it yourself." Hurry up and explain such a little thing, you will be embarrassed to be like this, what will happen in the future, Miss Ben seems to be unable to count on you, alas! ”

Qing Shu's sigh seemed to be helpless, but it made Xiaojuan nervous, she hurriedly said, "The slave will definitely be able to do it, Miss rest assured and wait for the good news", and the person has already gone out. She stood in the courtyard for a moment, but she couldn't wait for the little fish who had gone to the kitchen to get something back. She stomped her feet, went to the embroidery room and called Su's mother out, and stood with Su's mother in a place where no one was muttering.

I have to say that middle-aged and elderly women are quite enthusiastic about being matchmakers and matching young men and women to get married. Su's mother enthusiastically gave Xiaojuan ideas, and finally told Xiaojuan that if the trick that Miss came up with didn't work, she could come to her, and she could find a way again.

Xiaojuan got Su's mother's advice, and went to the kitchen to find someone with confidence. However, Xu Sanniang told her that Xiaoyu had taken the rice and flour oil she needed and had gone back. She hurriedly went back to look for it, but saw that Xiaoyu was about to go out with a food basket, she hurriedly asked, "Sister Xiaoyu, where are you going?" ”

Xiao Yu replied softly, "On the way back, I met a few young masters. The young masters said that they were hungry and wanted to eat the snacks made by the young lady to cushion their stomachs. No, I'm about to send some over. ”

Xiaojuan thought that this matter was more important, so she didn't stop and asked Xiaoyu to send snacks.

Qing Shu heard the movement and came out, "Don't be in a hurry, you can say it at night or tomorrow." She handed out a folded note, "Send it to the butler, and give it to the butler herself." If the steward is not there, take it back. ”

Xiaojuan agreed, took the things and hurried to find the ancient housekeeper.

Zhuangzi sent a cart of straw for burning the fire and two carts of dry branches of different thicknesses today. All this firewood is unloaded on the side of the firewood room. Butler Gu came over and was standing with Steward Wu talking. Xiaojuan came over and gave the note to Butler Gu.

Steward Wu avoided the side and talked to the person unloading the car. Butler Gu opened the note and read it, kneaded it into a small ball, said hello to Steward Wu, and took two steamed buns with coarse grain noodles from the kitchen and came to the back door.

As soon as the small corner door at the back door of the ancient mansion opened, several beggars lying in the back alley looked over, and then one of them got up, came over with a broken bowl in his hand and begged for food, and kept bowing, saying that he asked the master to appreciate the leftovers.

Steward Gu didn't interrupt, and whispered to himself, "After three days, let fifty or so people go to the thousands of acres of wasteland one after another, and the rest will go over one after another every three or two days." What big shoes are they wearing, and they are put together and reported to them. When the news was delivered, he put the two coarse grain buns into the beggar's bowl, turned back, and closed the corner door.

The beggar who got the bun thanked the closed corner door, "Thank you, thank you, thank you, kind master." Then he returned to his companions, sat down together, and with his black hands broke the two coarse grain bread into several pieces and ate them separately, and the matter was distributed. Two beggars grinned as they looked at their black, tattered, open-toed shoes.

On this day, it wasn't until it was time to go to bed late that Xiaojuan found an opportunity to talk to Xiaoyu in private.

Xiaojuan was lying in her quilt, her chin resting on the pillow and looking at Xiaoyu who was about to go to the kang, "Sister Xiaoyu, someone from Zhuangzi came up today to deliver firewood, I overheard a few words, I don't know if it's true or not." Seeing that the little fish was about to blow out the oil lamp, he hurriedly stopped it, "Don't put it out yet, I will go down to the ground to drink water later." ”

Xiao Yu hung the clothes he took off on the hanger, put them on the kang and put them into the quilt, and then answered, "What did you hear?" ”

Xiao Juan leaned over with a mysterious look on her face and whispered, "The people in Zhuangzi seem to be talking about Brother Zhang. ”

Xiao Yu's hand in the quilt tightened, and his mouth just let out a soft oh.

"I didn't hear it very clearly, only a rough idea. That's enough, though. I listened to them, as if there was a family in the village near Zhuangzi who gave birth to six girls and a son. Because this family has a lot of children, they can't open the pot when they see it. The eldest girl in this family seems to be good-looking, and her father and mother intend to give this girl to Zhang Da, and the dowry is not much, it seems that it is just a few bags of grain. By the way, listen to the meaning of their words, prepare that Miss Xu's family is looking for a matchmaker to talk about marriage! ”

The little fish closed its eyes and lay motionless.

Xiao Juan stared at her face and reached out to push her, "Sister Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you?" Why don't you ignore me? ”

Xiao Yu turned his back and whispered, "No, I didn't ignore you." ”

"Then how do you ......?"

"It's okay, I'm just sleepy and don't want to talk." Xiao Yu said this sullenly, biting his lip, his eyes closed tightly.

Xiaojuan scratched her head, sat up, and leaned over to see what was going on. Coincidentally, Xiaoyu just pulled the quilt to cover her head, and Xiaojuan didn't see anything.

Xiaojuan began to wonder, did she fail in her temptation? What should I do? No, I have to say something, I can't just leave it at that. "Sister Xiaoyu, in my opinion, Brother Zhang is interesting to you, and he won't fall in love with the girl from that family, really."

A muffled sentence came from the quilt, "Don't talk nonsense." ”

"Where am I talking nonsense? You see, that time you had an accident, you were arrested, you shouted for help in the car, and Brother Zhang, who was passing by, actually heard your voice at once, and then chased you out all the way, which saved you back. If Brother Zhang wasn't interested in you, how could he pay attention to you, and where would he hear your voice? ”

The man with his head covered stopped talking.

"Every time we follow Miss to Zhuangzi, we follow Miss An'an separately, if Miss doesn't tell her to come down on an errand, we and Brother Zhang in Zhuangzi can't talk at all, and they can't even face each other. If I didn't pay attention to you, Brother Zhang wouldn't hear Sister Xiaoyu's voice. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, go to bed."

"No matter what you do, people kindly tell you, but you still don't appreciate it." Xiaojuan pretended to be angry, got off the kang, poured herself a glass of water, drank it in a few sips, blew the oil lamp on the table, and lay down on the kang. Normally, she fell asleep. But today, I was thinking about the errand sent by the young lady, and I thought that I was too stupid, and I couldn't find out anything, and I was very depressed. So, rarely, she had insomnia, and she was lying motionless in the quilt, but her mind was cranky. If she can't do her errand, will the young lady get angry and not give her meat? Will you ignore her? No, no, I didn't find out tonight, but I have to work harder tomorrow, but I can't let Miss down.

For a long time, Xiao Yu, who believed that Xiao Juan had fallen asleep, took off the quilt covering his head, turned over, lay on his back, and sighed softly.

Xiaojuan, who rarely has insomnia, heard the movement, and she didn't dare to move, so she propped up her ears and lay quietly.

Xiaoyu felt uncomfortable lying down, so he kept turning over, his mind was messy, and he couldn't calm down. After a long time, she sat up, hesitated for a moment, and called Xiaojuan softly twice.

Xiaojuan pretended to be asleep and ignored it.

Xiaoyu put on his shoes and went down to the kang, groped to find the fire fold, and lit the oil lamp. Then, she lightly opened her own wooden box, took out an object, and held it in the palm of her hand and stared at it in a daze.

Xiaojuan was so curious that she wanted to die, but she couldn't hold back after all, and looked up at the ground, but only saw the back of Xiaoyu standing on the ground. Again, as soon as she moved, the quilt covering her body made a slight noise. She was startled and quickly pretended to turn over, not daring to peek again.

Xiaoyu turned around nervously, and saw that Xiaojuan just turned over, and after breathing a sigh of relief, she quickly covered the box, held the things in her hand, blew out the oil lamp, climbed onto the kang, and lay back in the quilt.

Neither of them slept well that night. When I woke up early the next day, I looked a little out of energy. Xiaoyu cleaned up and went to Qingshu's side to serve first.

Xiao Juan, who was left behind, immediately jumped up, opened the kang cabinet, and turned over the quilt that Xiaoyu had folded and put in, but found nothing. She was not discouraged, ran to open the door and took a look, making sure that Xiaoyu would not come back, swallowed her saliva, and muttered in her mouth, "I'm doing an errand for Miss, I'm doing good for Sister Xiaoyu, just look, just look, I'm not trying to steal things......" and so on, opened the box dedicated to Xiaoyu and looked inside. She snorted, her eyes lit up, she reached in and took something out, looking left and right. She thought of something, quickly covered the box back, walked around the house a few times, found a piece of cloth, wrapped the things she found, and ran to Qingshu in her arms.

Qing Shu had already washed up and was sitting in front of the vanity mirror to comb her hair. The little fish is carrying the water and is about to go out and pour it.

Xiao Juan gave way to Xiao Yu with a weak face, and when Xiao Yu went out, she immediately ran to Qing Shu and said nervously like a thief, "Miss, the slave found this, Xiao Yu slept with it all night last night, and hid it in the box in the morning." ”
