Chapter 9: Joy

Mother Qian looked at the two girls who were sitting upright, and said with a straight face: "Qiu Zhi also said just now, in addition to the old lady in our house, there are four young masters and two girls below. It stands to reason that you should salute when you see these people, but since you have entered this Mu Yuanju, you should know that we can get by with the etiquette on the face, but we have to remember in our hearts, which is your master. What to say and what not to say, keep your mouth shut well, and don't do those things that eat inside and out. ”

Chun Ting and Qiu Zhi nodded like pounded garlic, especially Chun Ting, these are all things that Xiaohe has repeatedly told her, and she will never forget it.

"We don't have any big rules for this Mu Yuanju, only this loyalty is the biggest rule." Mother Qian didn't seem to want to say any more, and took out two bags from the cage, "These are the clothes of the two of you this season, take them back and try to see if they fit, and if they don't fit, change them yourself." ”

"Alright, let's go back and rest. Cheer me up tomorrow, don't be out of order in front of the girl. ”

Chunting and Qiuzhi were held with a burden and were kicked out by Qian's mother with a blank face, glanced at each other, and both breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the other party didn't understand what Qian's mother meant.

When I went back to the house and opened the baggage, there were three sets of clothes, one pink one, one lake blue one, and one goose yellow one, all of which were short jackets with pleated skirts, the same as those on Winter Cocoon and Xia Yun. Qiu Zhi picked up the goose yellow one, and his tone was a little excited: "Chunting, let's wear this set tomorrow, this color is beautiful!" ”

"Okay." Chunting nodded in response. She had never seen such beautiful clothes before, and in the past, Yanni wore any new clothes at home first, and she could only pick up some old clothes. Lao Lin Tou couldn't make a few bucks, and Chun Ting was the most unfavored, how could Lao Lin Tou pay for her to make good clothes.

Chun Ting's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, thinking about it this way, there is nothing wrong with leaving that home, but he can't get together with his mother and his second brother and sister-in-law. Chunya touched the pair of silver bracelets in her arms, who knows what will happen in the future, in case she can see her relatives again.

In the evening, as Winter Cocoon said, Huan Pei arranged a table of dishes, greeted Huanqing and the four of spring, summer, autumn and winter, and made a game in her room.

Chun Ting looked at the table, the dishes were not very exquisite, but the portions were very real, and Huan Pei also prepared a small pot of fruit wine. After a few people sat down, Huan Pei encouraged Huan Qing to say a few words, Huan Qing scolded her, raised a small wine glass in front of her, cleared her throat and said: "What about today, what about our Mu Yuanju, there are two new girls and sisters, I am a few years older than you, so I will ask you a few more words." I won't say anything about Winter Cocoon and Xia Yun, Qiu Zhiyuan was in Madame's courtyard, and Mother Liu's rules are trustworthy to both Mrs. and the girl, so the girl asked Mrs. for you to come over. In the past, I also knew you when you were in the house, the little girl was clever, you just have to take care of your little mouth, and the girl will not treat you badly in the future. ”

"Chunting only came to the house today, and you don't know a lot about many things in the house, but what about this one, let's not talk about these spoilers, in this yard, except for the girl and Mother Qian, just a few of our sisters, and the rest of the sweepers, I don't know which yard sent them, I just hope that the two of you will not be bluffed by the villain."

"Since you can gather here, it's fate, I'll toast you first, don't drink it, you will be on duty tonight." Huan Qing said, drinking the wine in the cup.

Chunting also took a sip, the fruit wine was sweet and sour, not spicy at all, a bit like the juice squeezed out by her second brother in order to make her happy, it was the taste she liked.

Qiu Zhi drank a few more glasses greedily, and was finally helped back by Spring Court and Winter Cocoon. Huanqing couldn't cry or laugh because of this, and personally went to the kitchen to bring her a bowl of sobering soup, and several people forcibly poured Qiuzhi down, and deliberately avoided Qian's mother and didn't dare to let her see it.

The next day, Bai Huanru called Chunting and Qiuzhi and said that she wanted to say a few words to them.

"Chunting is not very literate, Xia Yun is excellent, in the future, you just have to ask her for advice, if she is annoying to you, you just come to me." Bai Huanru's voice was gentle, "Oh yes, do you know how to do some needlework?" It just so happened that I wanted to change a new purse, to the lotus pink, to the auspicious cloud pattern on the top, and then I will go to your sister to ask for a needle and thread, her pattern is also better, if you like it, borrow it. ”

Chunting responded continuously, peeking at Bai Huanru through the afterglow, the girl sitting on the mahogany circle chair had picturesque eyebrows and eyes, wearing a moon-white long jacket, with an azure horse-faced skirt, and the silver thread on the skirt door exposed under the hem of the skirt was hooked with dark lines, which was not obvious in the house, and if she went out to shine in the sun, it was extremely dazzling.

This is someone who has never been seen in Chunting before, and he is inherently noble and dazzling. is only three years older than him, but the gap between them is not something that can be made up in three years.

Bai Huanru straightened the non-existent broken hair on the sideburns, "Qiu Zhi is used to running in various yards, and Mother Liu is in charge of the small kitchen in her mother's yard, you move around more on weekdays, which can be regarded as giving you some luck in the house." ”

Qiu Zhi responded simply, "It's good to get the girl's words, my mother picks a lot on weekdays, and she refuses to give me a bite to eat." ”

Huanpei, who was standing beside Bai Huanru, sneered, "If Mother Liu refuses to give you food, why do you look so round?" ”

Autumn Branches are indeed the kind of girl who is round, with a round face and round eyes, and she looks very blessed. After listening to Huanpei's words, Qiu Zhi was not convinced, "That's my sweet mouth, my mother doesn't give me delicious food, naturally someone next to me will give it to me!" ”

"This little hoof, you're quite proud of eating and drinking around!" Huan Pei was directly laughed at by Qiu Zhi, "Then call the girl to comment on the reasoning, and see how you greedy little hooves can quibble." ”

"It's good, it's a blessing to be able to eat." Bai Huanru said, "In the future, you don't need to go to the kitchen, just call Qiuzhi, maybe you can bring two more dishes back." ”

Several little girls laughed, but it happened that Mother Qian came in, and the laughter stopped abruptly, Bai Huanru coughed twice in embarrassment, picked up the teacup at hand and took a sip.

"This tea is still brewed in the morning, I am afraid that it will not be hot, if the girl has an uncomfortable throat, it is better to drink hot tea." Mother Qian said with a glance, the tea in Bai Huanru's mouth almost didn't squirt out, but fortunately, the upbringing engraved in her bones stopped her, so she didn't lose her posture in front of Chunting.

Mother Qian continued: "The girl in the spring court will follow Huanqing more later, and Huanpei will lead the autumn branches." What else does the girl command? ”

"It's nothing, my mother said it very much, there are some things I can't think about, I still have to remind my mother more." Bai Huanru said a few words to Mother Qian, and then told Chunting and the others to disperse.

Huanpei led Chunting to fetch things, and said as he walked: "You two are lucky, Winter Cocoon and Xia Yunke were brought out by Mother Qian herself, and how many rings did you suffer at the beginning." Huanqing is the most soft-hearted, as long as you don't make a big mistake, she can't be ruthless to punish you. ”

Although Huan Pei was a little out of the way, he did things carefully, and found a basket in the house, and found a needlework and fabric. Most of the patterns were drawn by Huanpei herself, and she ordered a booklet, because there was only this one, so she took a pen and paper to Chunting and asked her to draw a copy by herself.

Chun Ting touched the fabric, and said a little embarrassed: "Sister Huanpei, can you give me some worse leftovers, this material is so good, I'm afraid it will be broken." ”

"What kind of good material is this, you just have to do it." Huan Pei handed the things to Chunting, "We don't have to pay for these two pieces of material." ”

"I won't send you, you can go back by yourself, and come to us if you have anything." Huan Pei gathered his clothes for Chunting, "You look good in this color, the little girl should wear some bright ones, and when the time comes, she will pay the monthly money and buy a few silk flowers to wear." ”

Stepping on the snow on the ground, creaking, Chunting had a lot of fun, but when he returned to the house, his shoes were soaked. Only Xia Yun was in the house, and when she saw Chun Ting's appearance, she frowned, asked her to take off her shoes and put them on the brazier to dry, and poured a soup woman for her.

Chun Ting was a little embarrassed, "Sister Xia Yun, don't be busy, I'll warm up after a while." ”

Xia Yun knocked Chunting's head, "Mother Qian said that the girl's body is the most unbearable, so don't mess around like this next time." ”

Chunting stuck out his tongue and signaled that he would not go any further. Stretched out his hand and took out the pen and paper and the booklet from the basket, and was about to find a few tricks to draw it down, when he heard Xia Yun say again: "Go to the window to draw it, that bright hall, do these delicate jobs and don't pay attention to it, I didn't get it and ended up with bad eyes." “

Chun Ting carried Tang Pozi to the window, and the snow outside reflected a lot of brightness here. picked the pattern of auspicious clouds from the booklet and carefully traced it on the white paper, but Chunting had never held a pen before, and the lines drawn were crooked. Xia Yun came over silently again, reached out to hold Chun Ting's hand and taught her hand by hand.

There was no college meeting in Chunting for a while, Xia Yun was speechless for a while, so she had to take the carbon strip to Chunting, telling her to take the painting first, write or something slowly.

After noon, Qiuzhi came back with a three-layer food box, which was full of snacks. Qiu Zhi gave the whole floor of snacks to Chunting, and then took the rest to go to the little girls in other courtyards.

Chun Ting had never seen such a delicate snack, and she divided a few pieces with Xia Yun, and she actually asked her to eat all the rest.

As a result, the little girl didn't eat much at dinner, but she was woken up hungry at night. The next day, Huan Peier told Qiu Zhi not to take those snacks for Chunting again, and not to rely on the fact that she is Liu's mother's daughter, how can you take the snacks in the small kitchen in the lady's courtyard casually?
