Chapter 40: Backyard Turmoil (1)

Chu Changjian looked at the dim sum on the table that had just been brought up, and he was very happy.

I have so many concubines and aunts, everyone coaxes themselves to be happy, and who is really willing to cook two ordinary pastries for themselves?

Zhou Jingya relied on her identity as the county lord, and refused to bend down to wash her hands and make soup for herself. The other aunts, all eager to lead themselves to the bed, all they learn on weekdays are some dances, seductive tricks, their own big backyard, this ordinary woman cooking for men, is the first time they have experienced it.

Zheng is a smart person, and from Chu Changjian's smiling face, he can naturally see what Chu Changjian is thinking.

I greeted the old lady in the morning, although I didn't know what the little maid saw or heard. In short, the old lady's bad look will not be a good thing.

Only then did he know that the old lady called Chu Changjian away, the old lady was so angry, Chu Changjian was a filial son, so he would naturally ask for a reason.

No matter what the reason is, Zhou Jingya's status in the hearts of the old lady and Chu Changjian will plummet.

I was in a good mood, making two plates of dim sum and preparing to give Wushuang food, but I didn't expect Chu Changjian to come.

Zheng got up and stood next to Chu Changjian, picked up a piece of pea yellow pastry and served Chu Changjian.

Looking at the Zheng family beside him serving him, he said in a very good mood: "Zheng'er, you make it and eat it with me, these two dim sum of yours are very good, let's taste them together." ”

When Zheng heard this, he didn't sit down, but started talking.

"Master, you can eat it, and I will serve you with snacks."

"Zheng'er, you are always so well-behaved, you have won my heart."

After speaking, Chu Changjian took Zheng's hand and asked her to do it.

He took a piece of lotus root flour sugar cake and handed it to Zheng.

When Zheng was about to reach out and take it, Chu Changjian came to play with it, and instead of handing it to Zheng, he retracted his hand.

When Zheng saw Chu Changjian's behavior, he couldn't figure out what Chu Changjian meant for a while.

Stretched out his hand in the air and was a little at a loss, Chu Changjian smiled when he saw Zheng's overwhelmed appearance.

Stretched out his hand and grabbed Zheng's hand, and fed the lotus root flour sugar cake in his hand to Zheng's mouth.

Zheng was a little choked by this sudden lotus root flour sugar cake.

His cheeks were red, and he struggled to get the tea on the table.

Chu Changjian only thought Zheng was shy, and held Zheng's little hand tightly, ignoring Zheng's struggle.

The maid on the side, Lu He, saw Zheng's strange appearance and was busy: "Master, you let go of your aunt first, your aunt seems to be choked, look at your aunt's face." ”

When Lu Lotus said this, Chu Changjian saw the strangeness of the Zheng family and hurriedly sent his hand away.

Zheng, who was unrestrained, hurriedly picked up the tea on the table and drank it all.

Chu Changjian saw that Zheng was not shy, but choked, and felt a little guilty in his heart.

Holding Zheng's back, he patted him kissingly and said, "Zheng'er, are you okay, can you go down?" ”

Zheng didn't have a good impression of Chu Changjian's behavior of restraining himself and almost choking to death just now, but he couldn't show it.

I could only say weakly: "Master, the concubine is fine, Fang Cai is just eating in a hurry, the master is feeding the concubine for the first time, and the concubine is overjoyed." ”

For Zheng's remarks, Chu Changjian was extremely useful, and his face was full of satisfaction.

The other aunts in the house learned that Aunt Zhao and Aunt Zhang had hooked up with the Zheng family and called friends, and they all went to the courtyard of the two to chat.

Aunt Zhang and Aunt Zhao lived not far away, and now a large group of aunts went to Aunt Zhao's yard.

"Sister Zhao, we just saw you and Sister Zhang chatting with Aunt Zheng in the garden pavilion for a long time, can you tell us about it, so that all our sisters can also learn."

"Yes, yes, Sister Zhao, you can't hide your secrets, say it, let us all listen."

But where did Aunt Zhao and Aunt Zhang get any tricks in the pavilion just now, it was like asking how the Zheng family was favored, but as soon as the topic went around, it went around to other questions.

Aunt Zhang saw that Aunt Zhao didn't speak, and said, "Sisters, we were chatting with Aunt Zheng in the garden pavilion just now, but Aunt Zheng didn't say anything to please the master." ”

When the people heard this, they did not follow.

In this backyard, who doesn't live with the favor of the old man Chu Changjian.

This backyard is the same as the emperor's harem, those who please the lord have a better life, and those who don't please the lord are just like the Zheng family in the past, and life is very miserable.

Everyone has their own calculations in their hearts, but they are generally the same, naturally they think that Aunt Zhao and Aunt Zhang have won Aunt Zheng's method, and they refuse to share it, and they want to please the master alone.

"Sister Zhao, you don't want to keep the method alone and please the master!"

Aunt Zhang wanted to defend Aunt Zhao, and Hu, a concubine who was close to Aunt Zhang, gently pulled Aunt Zhang's sleeve, suggesting that Aunt Zhang should not speak again.

Aunt Zhang didn't understand what Hu Shi was doing by pulling her sleeves for a while, but instinctively chose to shut up and no longer speak for Aunt Zhao.

Aunt Zhao was a little anxious when she saw that Aunt Zhang was no longer speaking for herself, and she wanted Aunt Zhang to speak for herself, so that everyone could turn their attention to Aunt Zhang.

Unexpectedly, Aunt Zhang didn't speak at this time, but Aunt Zhao's wishful thinking fell through.

Aunt Zhao wanted Aunt Zhang to speak, but she didn't know what to say, so she just gave Aunt Zhang a look.

Aunt Zhang was looking at the Hu concubine at this time, and she didn't see Aunt Zhao's eyes.

Aunt Zhao's eyes, all the aunts and concubines saw it, and it aggravated the thought in her heart, this Aunt Zhao must have some way to please the master, I'm afraid even Aunt Zhang doesn't know the way.

Everyone had a lot of opinions about Aunt Zhao for a while, and they were dissatisfied.

Everyone didn't stay long, and they all went back with their maids.

Hu wanted to take Aunt Zhang with her, but Aunt Zhang wanted to stay and talk to Aunt Zhao.

Hu had no choice but to leave first.

This Hu family is poor, since he was a child, he was sold to Chu Mansion as a maid, and when he became an adult, his appearance was acceptable, and he was selected by the old lady to Chu Changjian as a maid in the room, and later gave birth to the eldest daughter Chu Jingting, who was raised as a concubine.

Aunt Zhang and Hu's friendship is still some fate, when Hu's dystocia, Wen Po said that adults and children can only protect one, the house doctor is a foreign man, it is inconvenient to enter, the house doctor's wife and niece Zhang, is now Aunt Zhang, in the end, she is young and bold, slipped into the delivery room, and helped Wen Po let Hu give birth to a child safely.

Although since then, it has been difficult for the Hu family to meet happiness, but in the end there is still a daughter by his side.

Because of this, when Chu Changjian saw that Aunt Zhang was so bold and knowledgeable, he took Aunt Zhang back to the mansion and became an aunt, one level older than himself, and the Hu family was not half unhappy in his heart, but happy.

Since then, the two have formed a deep friendship, which is really rare in this back house.

Aunt Zhang, who stayed behind, didn't know what to say to Aunt Zhao, so she had to sit on the side.

On the contrary, when Aunt Zhao saw that Aunt Zhang did not speak, she complained about Aunt Zhang, and her face immediately collapsed.

Aunt Zhang is not a person who doesn't know color, seeing this, she immediately said that there was something in the hospital and left.

When Aunt Zhao saw Aunt Zhang leave like this, she thought that Aunt Zhang would speak first and say something to herself, but she left without saying anything, and she was even more angry.

Aunt Zhang, who left Aunt Zhao's yard, caught up with the Hu family in a few steps.

"Sister Hu, what's wrong with Fang Cai, you pull my sleeve and don't let me speak?"

Hu Shi looked at Aunt Zhang's puzzled face, and hated that iron could not become steel, he had lived in this mansion since he was a child, and he knew what Aunt Zhao was thinking. But how did Aunt Zhang in front of her marry into the Chu family for so many years, and she was still so innocent.

sighed and said, "Sister, you are really too naΓ―ve. Didn't you see that Aunt Zhao was using you as a shield? ”

Aunt Zhang was very puzzled, "Is there one?" I didn't feel it. ”

Hu really wanted to roll his eyes at this time, but he was helpless.

"Are you stupid, you and Aunt Zhao talked well with Aunt Zheng in the garden pavilion just now, this is something that all people in the backyard know, recently Aunt Zheng is favored, the limelight is excellent, you have been talking in the garden for so long, others will believe it, she didn't tell you anything?"

"But Aunt Zheng, she really didn't tell us anything!"

"The problem is here, Aunt Zheng didn't tell you and Aunt Zhao anything, so when everyone asked Aunt Zhao just now, how to please the master, why didn't she speak, but waited for you to explain? And Fang Cai, when the others chased and asked, she was not ready to speak, and wanted you to say, so you don't have to think about it with your own brain. ”

"Sister, what do you think, just tell me, say it clearly, I really don't know the twists and turns in this."

Hu is really big-headed.

Aunt Zhao didn't speak, waiting for you to say, this is clearly for you to be the first bird. Others will only think that you are hiding the method and are unwilling to share it, but Aunt Zhao has nothing to do. You don't know anything, but people think you know something and don't want to say it. ”

"Sister, what you said is true? Is this Aunt Zhao's mind really so insidious? ”

"You, really fake, won't you tell the difference yourself? How did you survive so many years in this back house? ”

"Sister, you don't know, in the past, the lord rarely set foot in the backyard, and most of the time he came to this backyard was at Madame's, we couldn't see the old man for a long time, and besides, Madame didn't allow us to get pregnant, she was the county lord, how dare we disobey, we were afraid of falling into Aunt Zheng's former appearance."

"I said what is good about you, once upon a time, now is now, this seeing that Mrs. is now not liked by the master, just this morning's greeting, I'm afraid it has also attracted the disgust of the old lady, this future, the old man has a big chance of coming to our backyard, you have to be careful about what you do, it is best to conceive a child, give birth, and you have hope for the rest of your life."

Aunt Zhang covered her mouth embarrassedly and laughed, she has been married to this Chu Mansion for more than ten years, and the Hu family has an eldest lady, but she has never had any children of her own, which is also a pity.

Hu is right, in this mansion, having a child of his own is better than anything else, even a daughter, and he will not be lonely for the rest of his life.

"Sister, I want to have a child of my own, but I'm so old now, I'm afraid it's not so easy to get pregnant."

"Aren't you proficient in medical skills, you have adjusted your body by yourself, you are only thirty-five or sixteen, your body is still young, and it is not difficult to recuperate well."
