Chapter 7 The rain hits the pear blossom and closes the door
Sure enough, it didn't take long for her to be unable to hold on, although she was a maid, but as Lin Huaien's henchman, she was usually similar to a young lady, and at this time there was already sweat dripping.
"Get up." I lifted her up, smiling, "Do you know what I mean now?" ”
She wasn't sure what I meant, and she didn't dare not speak, so she hesitated for a moment before saying: "That little master, although the etiquette is thorough, but his demeanor is always a philistine and sophisticated, and he doesn't seem to be a pampered young lady, and there seem to be calluses on his hands. The slave and maid looked at it, it didn't look like it was due to piano practice, but ......"
I saw that she was clear and should not have reservations, so I asked her to sit down: "In the future, you should talk to me more simply, but in the end, your body can't stand it." ”
Qiushui didn't squirm, just sat down next to me and asked me what was going on. Naturally, I don't plan to hide it from her and tell her about meeting Wen Xiuyuan before.
"That looks suspicious." Qiushui's eyes flashed: "But now that she has become a little master, she is a royal person, and now she must be very involved in finding out that the impostor is very involved, and the first thing to bear the brunt of is Miss You and Miss Liu who saved her!" ”
"Not bad." I replied casually, and I wasn't too surprised, which is something anyone can think of.
"Instead of exposing her, the little master should think of a way to grab her handle."
Hearing this, my eyes lit up, this girl is really transparent, worthy of the word Qiushui.
Qiushui saw the appreciation in my eyes, and became more confident: "Actually, it's not difficult to test her, if the little master agrees, I will immediately order someone to invite the little master Wen." ”
I consulted with her for a few words, and then listened to her words and hid in the screen behind her, really wanting to see what the girl could do.
Wen Xiuyuan didn't see me when she came in a hurry, her eyes flickering. Qiushui hurriedly greeted him: "Little Master Wen, please take a seat, my little master will come later." ”
Wen Xiuyuan didn't sit still, and came to Qiushui's side, Qiushui was embroidering, and when he saw this, he handed the things in his hand to Wen Xiuyuan and looked at it.
"It's exquisite." Wen Xiuyuan sighed, Qiushui smiled: "It's just a belly pocket embroidered for my young lady, there are many embroidery institutes in Jiangnan Mansion, I heard that all young ladies will learn embroidery, and this is beautiful." As a show girl selected by Jiangnan Mansion, Master Wen must be good at this, right? ”
Wen Xiuyuan's eyes flashed, and she said with a smile: "When I was a child, I couldn't endure hardship, and I gave up halfway, and I didn't know this." ”
Qiushui didn't let her go, there was a kind look of talking and laughing and pulling her to embroider, Wen Xiuyuan barely embroidered a few times, and it was really a mess.
Seeing this, Qiushui glanced outside, and immediately a little girl came up with something and laid vegetables on the table.
Qiushui said with a smile: "The little master is always pulled to talk during the banquet, so he must not have eaten." My little master specially invites you to come and add a supper. Does the little master want to eat green japonica rice or white japonica rice? ”
Wen Xiuyuan frowned and looked at the green japonica rice that night, pointed to the white japonica rice and said: "This bowl is good, you were my sister's maid, my sister is my benefactor, and I naturally respect the people around her, you don't have to worry so much about me." ”
Qiushui was noncommittal, settled her, and said, "The little master eats first, and I will urge our little master." Then he went out of the house.
I was hungry at this time, Shi Shiran came out from behind the screen, laughed with Wen Xiuyuan, and said, "Crystal shrimp balls? I like it the most, or the autumn water is strong. ”
"Why doesn't Qiushui know that my sister is actually in the house?" Wen Xiuyuan hid her face and smiled, I know she is suspicious, but what can he do to me?
casually explained: "I explained to her just now, and I went back to rest, maybe she was busy and didn't see it." My sister drinks tea, which is specially prepared for your taste. ”
"Thank you, sister."
Wen Xiuyuan hurriedly held the tea, smashed two sips, and said gratefully: "This is the taste!" I often drink it at home on weekdays, but I always feel that I am back at home in Jiangnan, my sister is so attentive, I don't know what to say. ”
I'm just smiling, this tea is called Suihan Sanyou, and the one used to drinking in Jiangnan Mansion has always been Yunwu tea. Her expression of gratitude was so easy to say.
After eating, I said a few words, and then I ordered someone to send Wen Xiuyuan out, and the little girls even cleaned up the dining table, and Qiushui came back.
"How's it going, did you try it out?" I casually wrapped myself in a lotus-colored dress and sat down in front of the brand-new vanity mirror to comb my hair.
Qiushui nodded, and handed me the few strokes embroidered by Wen Xiu: "The women of Jiangnan Mansion can't embroider and can't stand on their feet, and the little master Wen can be selected as a show girl must be a young lady from the official eunuch's house, but she can't embroider at all, which is really strange." ”
"What else?" I heard all of this behind the screen.
"What's more, Little Master Wen doesn't even know green japonica rice." Qiushui smiled: "White japonica rice is eaten by the next person, but she doesn't seem to know." Gangnam Province is a place where rice is produced. ”
"Alright." I slammed the ivory comb on the table: "Temptation and temptation, these are all disgusting things. When the palace is completed today, won't everyone have to test each other like this! ”
Qiushui was not afraid when he saw that I was angry, but came up to me and pulled out the hair ornament for me. The black hair like a waterfall spreads out, and it is as cold as water.
"That's right, if you don't be careful and take precautions against everyone, you can't survive."
I didn't want to listen anymore, so I put my clothes together and went to sleep.
Three days Houjin Palace, the snow fell heavier. I heard the old people in the house say that it has not snowed so heavily in the capital for ten years.
The weather was too bad, the wind swept goose feathers and heavy snow so that people couldn't open their eyes, and the welcoming ceremony hurried by. We were sent in through the side door, and as soon as we got out of the sedan chair, we saw a eunuch with a grim face standing majestically in the cold wind.
It's not Jiang Zhongmin next to my aunt. I made up my mind.
"Sister!" Before I got off the sedan chair, Wen Xiuyuan, who was behind me in the sedan chair, had already come over and stretched out his hand to help me personally: "Be careful of falling." ”
Wen Xiuyuan's eyes were a little solemn, and I also understood what she meant, this snow is so big, I'm afraid it's a strange omen. I thought about the snow on the day of the draft, and the sky was as gray as ever, and I couldn't help but feel a pain in my heart.
As soon as I got off the sedan chair, the eunuch immediately led the servants behind him to kneel in the snow: "Slave Han Zhongde, please say hello to the two little masters." ”
It turned out to be a celebrity in front of the queen, no wonder he had his own momentum. I smiled and exchanged a few polite words with him, but I wasn't too enthusiastic.
I am Lin Huaixing, the niece of Concubine Lin Nanyue, and I naturally have factions on my body, no matter how sincere I am with the people around the queen, she will not believe that I really have no quarrel with the world.
"Today's snow is really big, the queen said, when Concubine Shu entered the palace, it was also such a heavy snow, little lord, you are here with the blessing of Concubine Shu. Please get on the chariot! ”
I sneered in my heart, the queen is really a solid eye, and she dares to say this kind of resentful words blatantly, isn't it because I am Lin Nanyue's niece that I have resentment? By saying this, I am afraid that the people who entered the palace with me will isolate me.
And Lin Nanyue herself is not a good person, I remember clearly that she came to Xingshi to ask about the crime because Wen Xiuyuan wore the clothes she used back then.
Although I am her niece, but I have no friendship with her, when she entered the palace, I was still a little girl who had just been brought out of the beggar-like shack by the eldest lady, and she as the eldest lady at that time, she had never looked at me.
Now that I have entered the palace in the name of her niece, the queen compares the things she did when she entered the palace to me, I don't know what kind of mood she feels in the face of me?
The queen looks dignified, but secretly she is a good means.
I didn't answer his words, and I was ready to get on the sedan car directly. Han Zhongliang was still noisy around me.
"It's snowing heavily today, and the road is sprinkled with salt, and it's not suitable everywhere, so you can't get your feet down. The queen is sympathetic, and specially ordered the slave to come and take care of it, so get on the sedan chair. ”
Han Zhongliang's somewhat exaggerated politeness made me wary, and the body that had already stepped forward stopped.
I took a closer look, and I didn't find it just now, this sedan chair is black and has no decoration, it seems to be low-key, but the wood used is simple and gentle, and there is a black jade-like texture.
Could it be ebony?
I suddenly dripped, ebony can only be used by kings, and it is not available to princes of leisure, and the sedan chair made of people sitting under me is of a very high grade, and only the emperor and the queen who are small kings can use it. If others use it, it is a sin of transgression, and it is called disrespectful. This is most likely the sedan chariot used by the queen herself.
My heart sank, and I thought that there were so many little lords who entered the palace today, why did the queen send Han Zhongliang to take care of me? If it weren't for the ulterior motives, it would be hard to explain.
I looked at the sedan chair and felt that the wind and snow were not coming from the sky, but spewing out of my heart.
