Chapter 44: Still full of interest
Yue'er's body trembled slightly: "Third Young Master...... What are you doing there? ”
"I'm going to find someone." A touch of tenderness appeared in Hua Yuanshan's deep eyes, and then turned to profoundness. He stood up and looked at Jiang Nuan, who was already sleeping soundly in the inner room: "Is there a green plum cake here?" ”
Yue'er raised her eyes and looked at Hua Yuanshan, and said in a low voice, "Yes." ”
"You write the green plum and hawthorn cake into small pieces to cook a bowl of thick soup for Gege, remember to put some vinegar, and give Gege a bowl to drink later, and your head won't hurt when you wake up tomorrow, and the most fearful thing about getting drunk is a headache." Hua Yuanshan said and walked outside, out of the courtyard of Yuelou Residence.
Yue'er stood in place for a long time, until the tears on her face fell on the autumn-colored cotton jacket and she came back to her senses slightly.
In the room at this time, Jiang Nuan had already snored gently, his face was red, and he turned over sleepily.
The next day, it was almost noon when Jiang Nuan slowly opened his eyes, but he felt that the sunlight outside the window was a little dazzling.
In a trance, she saw a beautiful woman sitting under the window, plucking the plum blossom piano in her hand, and the music was melodious.
Damn, did she cross again?
At this time, Jiang Nuan closed his eyes again, opened them again, and finally saw clearly that it was Yue'er who was sitting under the window and was dressed in green linen.
"Gege, you're finally awake!" Yue'er saw Jiang Nuan open her eyes, and hurriedly stepped forward to help her sit up.
Jiang Nuan turned his neck, feeling that his eyes were astringent, and his mouth was dry.
"When?"
Yue'er handed the tea in her hand: "It's almost noon!" ”
Jiang Nuan was startled and sobered up for the most part: "It's already noon?" Isn't it the first day of the Lunar New Year? I've slept for so long!? ”
"Not really! Gege can't remember how you got back last night! ”
Jiang Nuan patted his head, and sure enough, it was blank, and the only impression was that Hua Heng was holding a cup and fighting wine with her, and he didn't know the southeast and northwest.
That's it, didn't the third sister say that there will be many people coming to the house to pay New Year's greetings today? ”
Yue'er came in with washing water, twisted a handkerchief and handed it to Jiang Nuan: "Yes, the Xiaoxiao girl next to the eldest lady has been here twice in the morning, so let Gege go to the eldest lady's yard when she wakes up." ”
"Then don't hurry!" Jiang Nuan hurriedly wiped her face twice, picked out a set of jade-colored gold cotton gauze jackets with broken flowers and put them on, and asked Yue'er to comb her hair.
Yue'er asked, "Is Gege more complicated or simpler today?" ”
Jiang Nuan said: "Then whichever is convenient will be." ”
Yue'er coiled up Jiang Nuan's black hair, leaving a strand of green silk hanging from the back of her left head to her chest, and the bun was decorated with the shaking jade golden hairpin that Mrs. Hua rewarded last night.
At the beginning of the first month, the banquet of Huafu has not been interrupted, and the people who come to visit the party bring their families with their families, and some of them do not leave when they stay, and simply eat from the first day of the new year to the fifteenth.
Jiang Nuan was still full of interest at the beginning, and ran happily when he heard that there was something delicious, but then he was tired, probably because he ate too greasy, but thought about a light diet, so he didn't go out for four or five days in Yuelou.
Hua asked Xiaoxiao to run a few times, Jiang Nuan only said that her stomach was uncomfortable and she didn't want to go out, but she didn't expect to alarm Hua Wu to send a doctor.
But after some tossing, the doctor came to the conclusion that Jiang Nuan's spleen and stomach were out of balance and needed to be recuperated for a few days. With the doctor's words, Yuelouju was cleaned.
Jiang Nuan has returned to her previous leisurely days, the lights in the house are full of wine, and the staggering seems to have nothing to do with her.
And the scenery of Yuelouju is still very good, Yue'er's white rice porridge is still very nourishing, Jiang Nuan thinks that the small life is still very comfortable!
That afternoon, Jiang Nuan took Yue'er to do yoga in the yard, and used two dark soft cotton mats without yoga mats.
This is said that since Hua Xunsi began to notice her character, Yuelouju's treatment has become better and better, and poverty has become a thing of the past.
Moreover, the items for food and clothing were sent in batches from outside, and there was no shortage of everything, along with the tables and chairs with missing arms and legs, and the wooden beds without beds were replaced.
Today's Yuelou is not what it used to be!!
"Gege, this set of kung fu is so comfortable!" Yue'er put away the mat, her face was ruddy and moist like rouge, and she was in good spirits.
"Of course, if we insist on doing it, we can not only strengthen our body but also beautify our face!" Jiang Nuan looked at his waist, it was indeed a little rounder than when he first arrived here, it was estimated that it was too edible, and he had grown more than ten catties of meat.
"Yue'er, do you think I'm gaining weight?"
Yue'er smiled and nodded: "Yes, Gege is a lot plump!" ”
At this time, Jiang Nuan's face is green, do you want to become a fat woman!?
"Gege is just right like this, she was too thin before, how can she look like a girl who has passed the ropes."
"You're not comforting me, are you?"
"Yue'er won't lie to Gege, Gege is now like this, if you increase one point, you will be too fat, and if you lose one point, you will be too thin, and you will be slim."
Jiang Nuan nodded resolutely: "I believe you!" "Everybody loves to hear good things.
Yue'er smiled, made tea in it and handed it to Jiang Nuan: "This is the plum blossom stamen sent by the third lady, it is fragrant, the water for making tea is the snow I collected in the yard when it snowed a few days ago, Gege taste it." ”
Jiang Nuan took a sip, and sure enough, the fragrance was overflowing, and the aftertaste was sweet.
"Yue'er, if you raise my mouth, you will be the one who will be embarrassed in the future! After drinking this tea, I don't want to touch those broken tea leaves anymore! ”
"Master attaches so much importance to Gege, how can we go back to the old days? Although those aunts still don't like Gege, but now no one dares to find Gege's trouble, the slave went out yesterday when the eldest lady's yard to get fruit candied fruit met the maid in the second lady's room, she said that after the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, the old man passed the word to each room and each courtyard, and whoever dared to trouble Gege in the future will serve the family law, and the second lady was so angry that she threw things in the room, but there was no way at all. ”
Jiang Nuan was stunned, no wonder this period of time was so quiet, it turned out to be such a show.
It seems that Hua Wu has indeed begun to protect her! Since he protected her so much, how could he let her go for so many years, was it just because of Shen Yan?
"And time flies so fast, the house has been lively today, I'm afraid it will have to be quiet for a while, and it will only be lively when the second young master gets married." Yue'er said on the side.
Jiang Nuan came back to his senses: "What is the identity of that Yang Jiani, why did the second brother marry him?" ”
Yue'er said: "Miss Yang's origin is not small, our Huafu is a relative of the former emperor, and the Hua family is a big chaebol in Suzhou, rich and rival the country, in terms of financial resources, if the Yang family recognizes the second, no one dares to recognize the first, Huafu and the Yang family are looking forward to the two families, just because the second young master is smart and capable, but the second young master's biological mother has been reluctant, delayed a few times, and now the second young master is older, the Yang family is urging tightly, and the slave maid sees that it is time to marry. ”
"However, I don't think the second brother likes Yang Jiani."
Yue'er smiled: "But such a big family, who cares if you like it or not, if you meet Kexin, it is naturally good, and if you can't meet it, it's fate." ”
A sad emotion welled up in my heart, the second young master of the Hua family was like this, what about her? You don't have to think about it to know.
"Miss Yang is a good person, and her character is top-notch among the young ladies, but she is shy." Yue'er said.
Jiang Nuan shook his head: "Hey, by the way, why haven't you married a wife yet?" What about the third brother, isn't my father in a hurry? ”
Yue'er's face paused obviously, her eyes dimmed, and she said, "This...... The slave doesn't know. ”
Jiang Nuan didn't notice Yue'er's unnatural expression, she remembered that Xiaoxiao had said that Hua Yuanshan's marriage was a taboo, and it couldn't be said casually in Huafu.
"By the way, you just said that today is the last day to be lively, why?" Jiang Nuan asked suddenly.
Yue'er was stunned for a moment, as if she hadn't come back to her senses yet: "Today is the fifteenth, the last day of the New Year's Festival." ”
"Oh, is there a lantern festival in that street market during the Midyear Festival?" Jiang Nuan's eyes lit up suddenly.
"Yes, the Shangyuan Lantern Festival in Suzhou is notoriously lively and fun, but it's a pity that we can't get out."
"Why can't you get out, you can get out if you want to!" Jiang Nuan smiled, the corners of his mouth crooked.
Yue'er had an ominous premonition: "Gege, you ......" Jiang Nuan took Yue'er's hand: "Anyway, no one from our Yuelou Residence will come, I'll just sneak out later." ”
"No, no, no, if you want to be caught, you have to be beaten." Yue'er hurriedly shook her head.
"I'll go early and come back early, don't worry, nothing happens." I've been in the Dawan Dynasty for so long, and I've been wandering around this flower house every day, it's time to go out and see the world.
Yue'er had a bitter face: "Gege, you can spare the slave." ”
Jiang Nuan said: "It's really not going to happen, I'm measured." If you are afraid, don't go, stay here, if someone really comes, you can help me block it, just say I'm not feeling well and have fallen asleep. ”
"Huh?" Yue'er was stunned, but seeing the excitement on Jiang Nuan's face, she knew that it was useless to persuade her.
"Let's move, I'm not familiar with Suzhou, Yue'er, you can help me draw a map." Mark me the place of the lantern festival and the route back to my hometown. Jiang Nuan smiled and went back to the room, happily looking for pen and ink.
Yue'er followed impatiently behind her, this Gege is really an anxious person, saying that the wind is the rain.
Until the evening, Jiang Nuan changed into the most usual lotus-colored cheongsam, the hem of the jade flowered skirt was staggering, and the long hair was simply braided into two large braids and hung down to the waist.
"Gege, you must come back early!" Yue'er instructed uncomfortably in the back.
Jiang Nuan turned around with a smile and made an OK gesture.
Yue'er was stunned, what does that mean?
Jiang Nuan is already very familiar with the road in Huafu, and she has always loved to slip away, picking places where no one is walking, although she also met a few maids along the way, but they were all busy and hurried by.
Seeing that Jiang Nuan's dress was similar to that of his subordinates, he didn't ask much. There is another night banquet in Huafu tonight, everyone except her should gather over there, why not sneak out at this time?
