Chapter 54: Gossip

Let's say Jia Min, I got up this morning, went to the main courtyard to ask for peace, had breakfast, and after sending my husband away, I returned to the house, and was a little upset to see the stack of account books on the east case.

Mo Ju saw it and persuaded: "It rained last night, and it's cool today, grandma might as well go to the garden, you don't look like an uncle, you want to take the exam to be an official, and you work harder than the uncle all day long." ”

Jia Min smiled, "It's okay." ”

She was interested here, and the girls in the yard were naturally happy, especially Bailan and Lumei, who were even more happy, and diligently supported the little girls to prepare things that could be used. Cuizhu smiled when she saw it: "Grandma asked Bai Lan and Lumei to wait, and Mo Ju and I are two housekeepers." ”

Jia Min nodded indispensably, and Bai Lan and Lumei were overjoyed. carried Jia Min and quietly thanked Cuizhu.

Cuizhu said: "It's not necessary to be like this, we are all grandma's henchmen, don't you work hard, don't you want to use the two people in that house." As he spoke, his eyes swept to the house where Bi Xuan and the two lived.

Bai Lan and Lumei nodded hurriedly, "Isn't it?" ”

They were cold by Jia Min for three months, and they were not even as good as the second-class girls next to their grandmothers. The two of them are not stupid, they know that in the Lin Mansion, if they lose the protection of their grandmother, everyone can rub them. Since grandma doesn't have the heart to give grandpa to her uncle now, why should they bother to get in the way of grandma's eyes.

Besides, even if you are an uncle's housekeeper, you don't live under your grandmother. The uncle is a man, and there are many big things waiting for him to do outside, and the affairs of the back house are naturally in charge of grandma. The uncle can still be a few people in the house, and he can't give the grandmother a face. Don't talk about others, just say Bi Xuan and Qilan. Since childhood, it was my wife who sent a message to my uncle. It can be regarded as having crossed the Ming Road, and now it is not that I am confined to the house all day long to make needles and money, and copy scriptures. Not to mention serving the uncle closely, you can't even enter the main room.

It was also before that the two of them thought badly, thinking that grandma had newly married to the Hou Mansion, and there were two old people with uncles, so they had to use their help to bring the uncle's heart over. Who knows, the uncle is more respectful to the grandmother than to the wife, and he is obedient to his words, and he has no one else in his eyes. Bai Lan and Lumei couldn't help but be discouraged. I don't want to be sent out hastily by my grandmother. Therefore, when they changed their appearance and no longer went to the uncle's side, Lin Ruhai came back, Cuizhu and Moju were not free for a while, and they didn't come out, so they just sent the little girls to serve. After going back and forth, Jia Min gradually began to call them again.

Mo Ju and Cuizhu originally looked down on Bai Lan and Lu Mei, but when they saw Jia Min, they began to ask them to serve again. I also whispered it in private. Mei Qing still understood it, "Grandma only married into the Hou Mansion, and the mansion is full of old people, only we and the eldest grandmother are foreigners." Compared to the original girls in this house. Naturally, we use it to reassure grandma. Mo Ju and Cuizhu then understood, and they eased the color of Bailan and Lumei, and they were willing to let go of their hands. Let them take care of something.

Jia Min avoided people and said with a smile: "Is it useless or not?" If you don't listen to it, you have to see again. You two also check the gates. ”

In a word, he said that he Moju and Cuizhu both smiled, and said: "Grandma rest assured to leave it to us, Guan Bao polished his eyes and stared at it with a good trace." ”

Speaking of which, in ancient times, this big family had to prepare a lot of things when they went to visit the garden. All kinds of utensils for making tea, and all kinds of snacks for tea, but also bring washing utensils, a small stove for boiling water, and a copper kettle.

And because the garden is lush with flowers and trees, rich aquatic plants, especially in the waterfront place, there are many mosquitoes, so the master can't be bitten by insects, and he has to go to incense in advance to drive away the insects. Even if you are visiting the garden, you can't just stay in one place without walking. Therefore, all kinds of incense balls should also be prepared, and the smallest kind can be placed in the sleeve and tied around the waist.

With such a vast group of people following, what's the point of going out to play. Jia Min packed himself up, and when he came out, he saw that there were sixteen or seventeen people in the courtyard, even the big and the small, and the old and the young, and his face darkened first, "Bai Lan and Lumei, just call three or five girls to follow." ”

When Bai Lan heard this, she hurriedly waved her hand and dispersed the crowd to retreat, supported Jia Min, and said carefully: "The slave thinks that it is better to prepare all the things than to let grandma not use things when she wants to use them." ”

Jia Min smiled: "I thought it was right, but there were piles of accounts in the house, and I couldn't go shopping for long, but I just went loose and came back." On that day, when I invited my wife and eldest girl to the garden for a day of fun, I will leave it to you to prepare. ”

"It's a slave who thinks badly today, so it's good that grandma doesn't blame her."

"What's so weird, let's go."

Speaking of the Lin family's garden, it is very much liked by Lin Ruhai and Jia Min, this is the first two months, they have been busy adapting to ancient life and improving their skills and proficiency, they are afraid that when they come to the garden, they forget to read, and enjoy it first, which is a waste of time.

Now that their husband and wife have come here, they will basically adapt to life here, and Lin Ruhai's academic aspects are also getting better, and they can often come to the garden to play in the future.

Jia Min was impatient with many people following him, so he dispersed the girls when he entered the garden, and only took Bai Lan and Lumei with him, and walked around slowly.

The garden of the Hou Mansion is on the east road of the Fuzhong, connecting half of the back garden. When repairing the garden, the characteristics of the Jiangnan garden were taken, and the stones were stacked to manage the water, constituting the main scenery in the garden. Take Taihu Lake first, and those who are exquisite and colorful in the stone are planted in the courtyard for enjoyment. Again over the value of flowers and trees, with tall trees to shade the scorching sun, choose more plants simple or beautiful pine, soft willow, etc., supplemented by flowers, fruits, leaves of the color and fragrance of precious flowers and trees, vines, vines, will be elegant, simple pavilion, building, Zhai, hall hidden in it, strolling in the meantime, only feel that the winding path is secluded, the courtyard is deep. Especially in the middle of summer, when you step into the garden, you will feel light and cool, and the heat will disappear.

There are many rocks and trees in the garden, and there are many natural hidden places, Jia Min is a little tired of walking, so he found a place where flowers and trees flourish, spread the handkerchief on the mountain rocks, sit down to rest, and take a good look at the blooming golden belt by the way.

Jindaiwei was originally a famous species of Yangzhou peony, and was named because of a circle of tender yellow stamens between the upper and lower bright red petals. At this time, the flowering period of peony has passed, but the golden belt in front of me is blooming vigorously, which is really amazing.

Jia Min was thinking in her heart that the scene in front of her was enough to enter the painting, and she could bring her husband over tomorrow to take a look, and by the way, let him practice the skills of painting in time. As for what kind of bitter gourd face Lin Ruhai has after knowing her thoughts, Jia Min can think of it now. She couldn't help but smile funny, and Bai Lan, who was waiting, was trying to make fun, and after saying a few words, she heard a sound on the path outside, and she was not alone.

It was about the girl in the room who came to the garden to pinch the flowers and wear them, and Jia Min didn't care. Who knows, the people passing by outside stopped.

"Sister-in-law Wang, you see that the roses here are blooming well, so let's pinch some back here."

"Okay."

By the way, when she first came over, she saw that the roses on the flower wall over there were blooming just right, and she thought that she would send the girl to pick some back tomorrow and try to steam some flower dew to use. It was these two people, who were a little old when they heard the voice, probably the rough envoy in the courtyard, who were sent away. Jia Min didn't move, and she didn't make a sound, and when Bai Lan and Lumei saw that their master didn't move, they naturally didn't move.

The two people outside did not move, and their mouths did not stop, probably because there were not many people in the garden, and the more they talked, the more bold they became, and even the owner of the house took it out and said: "Sister-in-law Wang, you said that our eldest girl has so many tricks, and the one or two silver boxes of rouge bought outside are not good, so I have to make trouble doing it myself, I don't know how many flowers have been wasted, which makes people feel distressed when they look at it." ”

"This big girl is not ruined, and you can't take it off and sell the silver, what's so distressing." The one who is called Wang's sister-in-law wants to open it, "Besides, the young girl's house also dislikes the unclean things bought outside." ”

"Then what about our grandmother, isn't she young, so she doesn't use it the same way."

"Our Hou Mansion is a scholarly heirloom, and it is the fifth generation to the uncle, and it should be the time to pay attention to food and clothing, poetry and books. Although the eldest grandmother is from the Guogong Mansion, her family was born as a military general before, and she is good at fighting and killing. Sister-in-law Wang mentioned Jia Min in her tone, revealing such contempt.

Her words made Bai Lan and Lumei angry. Two dog minions, what are they, they dare to look down on the big grandmother and the Guogong Mansion! The two girls looked at Jia Min with their eyes, just hoping that the eldest grandmother would speak, so that they could teach the two old women a lesson. Jia Min didn't seem to hear it, just looked at the golden belt and looked around. The grandmother didn't say anything, and the girl naturally couldn't come out, so she had to get angry.

Jia Min heard this, but he didn't get angry, but he felt a little funny. The Lin family and the Jia family are generally titles that were awarded at the time of the founding of the country, and they can be passed down, so they must be generals who followed the founding emperor to fight the world, and they were rewarded for their merits after the founding of the country. Speaking of which, the Lin family was not the same as the Jia family before, they were all born in martial arts, and no one had to laugh at anyone.

"By the way, yesterday I saw Bi Xuan in the grandfather's courtyard coming out of her house, still with red eyes, and went back to the grandfather's courtyard while crying. You said, this Bi Xuan was a very arrogant person in the past, but now it is a pitiful child. ”

"The eldest grandmother is really powerful, I heard that not to mention that the girl who served in the uncle's yard before couldn't get close to the uncle's body, it was the grandmother's own wedding girl, and the uncle was not allowed to touch it. Tut-tut, no wonder Bi Xuan cried like that. ”

"Uncle is so domineering that grandma doesn't say a word?"

"Uncle, I was subdued by my grandmother."

"Hey, sister-in-law Wang, what do you say is good about the eldest grandmother, she is fascinated by the uncle like this, and she doesn't look at how beautiful the girl is."

"Hehe, perhaps, grandma is that charming body......"

Jia Min glanced at Bai Lan, and then spoke up: "Go and take those two people, and see Mrs." (To be continued......)
