Chapter 307: Knock on the door
August 8th, morning...
As the head of the house, and pregnant, Zhang Cuiyun is naturally the most important thing to be cared for.
Not to mention anything else, even her diet, she specially invited a pregnant woman to try the food: for fear that someone would poison the food specifically for the child in Zhang Cuiyun's belly. This shows how high Cheng dΓΉ she is protected.
Zhang Cuiyun's waiting period is still more than ten days, but her temper is becoming more and more eccentric, angry for no reason, and she will giggle alone without warning, but you still have to take care of it patiently.
She suspected that mosquitoes were raised in the lotus pond at the door of her house, and she was only worried about it before, but early this morning, she was bitten by a mosquito on her arm, and she was immediately angry and asked her subordinates to fill the lotus pond.
Listen to the old people: In the Ming Dynasty, when the Wang family had not risen to the four major families, they specially invited a feng shui master to guide and build this lotus pond. Ten years later, the four surnames were made great contributions to the fight against the Japanese invaders, and the Ming Dynasty named them the four major protectors, and gradually evolved into the four major families, which have been passed down to this day. In addition, Wang Shihua especially likes this lotus pond, and the Wang family has risen rapidly in his hands, everyone thinks that this is the blessing of the ancestors, so that this feng shui treasure has created Wang Shihua and led everyone on the road to prosperity.
Therefore, no one, including the camel, dared or was unwilling to obey this order: if it was really to be filled, even if Wang Shihua didn't trouble himself, I am afraid that the Wang family would drown themselves in a mouthful of spit...... Digging your own feng shui treasure land is more hated than digging your ancestral grave.
The maids and subordinates who were caught in the middle and were difficult to be human were already kneeling at the door of their homes.
Seeing that the people didn't listen to the order, even the mother's family he brought with him, Zhang Cuiyun's face turned blue, and the roar was like a majestic roar from the divine beast of the town house to all the prey in the territory, and everyone bowed their heads in shock, even Ah Xia and Xiaomei could only stand at the door, not daring to come over to persuade.
At this moment, I saw a maid hurrying over with a burden and muttering a few words in Xiaomei's ear.
Xiaomei was shocked and exclaimed, "What? She...... She ......"
Xiaomei didn't finish her words, she was touched by Ah Xia, and then looked at Zhang Cuiyun, how could Xiaomei not hurry up and shut up: Zhang Cuiyun was in a rage, if she knew this at this time, I am afraid that no one, including Wang Shihua, would have a good life.
Unfortunately, it was a little late.
Zhang Cuiyun, who was full of anger, heard Xiaomei's subconscious cry, looked back, and saw that Xiaomei didn't say anything again, and immediately scolded: "What do you look like sneaky? Explain something clearly in front of everyone. β
"Miss, I'...... She ......"
Zhang Cuiyun couldn't wait for Xiaomei's spitting, pointed to the maid next to Xiaomei who came to report the news, and said angrily: "You say, if you dare to hide a word, you will be pulled down and buried alive." β
The maid's face changed when she was frightened by Zhang Cuiyun's momentum and threat, and she quickly knelt on the ground, so someone was going to be unlucky.
"Mother Qiqi, there is a girl kneeling outside the city, she said...... She said......"
Zhang Cuiyun didn't have the patience, and when she saw the maid halfway through her speech, she didn't dare to continue, and she looked left and right, and immediately shouted: "Come on, pull her out for me and bury her alive." β
This matter was easier than the consequences of filling the lotus pond, and the camel immediately ran over to catch someone, and the frightened maid screamed hysterically in the struggle: "She said that she is the woman of the head of the house, and she wants to see the head of the house..."
This is a demonstration to several ladies, commonly known as knocking on the door... Everyone gasped, and in the dead silence, everyone looked at Zhang Cuiyun at the same time: Come and report this kind of thing when Zhang Cuiyun is angry, with Zhang Cuiyun's temperament, that woman is dead.
What everyone didn't expect was that Zhang Cuiyun was just stunned for a moment, and then stretched out her hand back, and the two maids hurriedly helped her lie on the couch.
"How do you know, be clear." Zhang Cuiyun's face was calm, and his tone was also very indifferent. Others don't know, but Xiaomei knows: Zhang Cuiyun is really angry...... Don't look at Zhang Cuiyun's yelling and screaming on weekdays, with an angry posture, but in fact, she is really angry, and she is like this.
"By the grace of my mother, I was given three days off to go home to visit my parents, today is the last day, I dare not delay, so I will come back early. As soon as I got to the gate of the city, I met the girl, and I listened to her say that she was the woman of the head of the house, and that she wanted to see the head of the house. The guards at the north gate don't know what to do, but they know that I am your maid, so they ask me to show you. β
Zhang Cuiyun suddenly asked a digression: "How much money did you charge the people who guarded the north gate?" β
This girl is either stupid, or she has received benefits, otherwise, she would dare to agree to this kind of thing to help people withstand thunder? If it's the former, you can still stay, after all, there is no shortage of clever maids around you, but there are some things that need to be done by the maids of Mu Ne Point, because Mu Ne Point is generally more aware of death and relatively loyal. But if it's the latter, then you have to be sent away.
The maid was stunned for a moment, and quickly shook her head and said, "He wanted it for me, but I didn't dare to ask for it." β
"Why?"
"Master, didn't you say that if we are short of money, we can find you? Besides, I eat well and live well, and you just rewarded my family with 100 catties of grain last month, and I'm not stupid, just let go of a good life and collect money that shouldn't be taken. β
"Poof..." Ah Xia burst out laughing, quickly covered her mouth, and turned to the room...... You're not stupid? Your words in themselves reveal a silly girl's cuteness.
Zhang Cuiyun nodded and ordered, "Reward her family with another hundred catties of grain." Alright, you go down first. β
"Wait a minute." Xiaomei thought of something, stopped the other party, and asked, "Is that girl at the city gate very smart?" β
The maid looked at Xiaomei with great admiration, nodded and said, "That girl is not very old, but the real water spirit that grows, especially the skin, is white and delicate, as if it can be blown through by blowing a breath......"
Xiaomei had already guessed who it was, how could she listen, waved her hand to stop the other party, and said, "Okay, you go down and rest first." β
"Oh~..."
Xiaomei hurriedly muttered in Zhang Cuiyun's ear.
Xiaomei has already regarded Zhang Shuhua as a big enemy...... The main reason is that Zhang Shuhua is too beautiful, which arouses Xiaomei's jealousy and protection, how can she not report this to Zhang Cuiyun?
But Xiaomei is also a little selfish, just asking Zhang Cuiyun to pay close attention to Wang Shihua, and other aspects are dispensable, especially for Zhang Shuhua's beauty, but she only described it as 'a good-looking girl', so Zhang Cuiyun didn't care much.
"Camel, where is Wang Shihua now?"
"Miss, my uncle went out early in the morning, saying that it was the expansion of the school, and there were a few families who wanted to relocate who did not want to ask for money and wanted food, so my uncle went to mediate."
"Hop on a fast horse and get him back for me at once." After saying that, he commanded another guard: "Go and bring that girl to me to see." β
Immediately, I got up and went back to the house...... With this kind of thing to pass the boring days of raising a baby, she naturally will not have nothing to do to fill the pond.
"Okay, let's disperse, don't chew your tongue." Xiaomei helped her up, turned around and instructed her subordinates.
After a while, Zhang Shuhua was taken to the hall, and at a glance she found that there was a big-bellied woman sitting in the middle of the hall, except for a green water bracelet on her left hand, she did not wear any jewelry, but from her arrogant bearing and domineering eyes, Zhang Shuhua still guessed at a glance that this was the head of the Wang family. What's more, the beautiful woman next to Wang Shihua who I saw a few days ago was standing next to Zhang Cuiyun at this time, and the two looked at each other with solemn faces.
And the other big-bellied woman who was sitting next to Zhang Cuiyun looked at her with a smile, her eyes looked at each other, and she smiled at herself.
"Is this the place you should be looking around?" As soon as Xiaomei saw her standing there so quietly, it didn't matter if she didn't salute, she dared to look around, and immediately seized this opportunity, and shouted with a fake tiger: "Don't kneel down for me yet..."
"Why should I kneel?" Although Zhang Shuhua's family is poor, because she is too beautiful, she has been praised by everyone since she was a child, and over time, it is inevitable that she will be proud, so in the face of Xiaomei's reprimand, she also dares to fight back.
"When you see the mistress, how dare you not kneel?"
"He hasn't married me yet, and I'm not a member of the Wang family, so naturally I don't kneel."
"So, are you going to marry into my Wang family?"
"How is that possible? He personally promised to ask my family for 2,000 catties of grain as a dowry. β
"Did he say yes?"
"Right by the creek, you were there."
"He didn't even say yes."
"Okay, don't fight." Zhang Cuiyun took advantage of the time to drink tea just now, and looked at Zhang Shuhua carefully. To be honest, she still admires this little proud girl, but for her beautiful messy appearance, out of jealousy instinct, she is a little disgusted, it depends on Wang Shihua's attitude. However, now she really wants to hear the details, after all, when Xiaomei reported the news, she didn't say that this girl was so beautiful.
"You tell me more about it first." To be honest, Xiaomei was born as her personal maid after all, and she is still emotionally biased towards Xiaomei, otherwise, she wouldn't even give a seat, a cup of tea, and listen to the details as soon as she opens her mouth.
After all, Zhang Shuhua was born in a poor family, although she knows some etiquette, but now the place where she is is in a big family, she really doesn't know if she can drink tea first. Seeing that Zhang Cuiyun didn't mention it, she had no choice but to stand and explain the matter carefully.
Proud people generally don't tell lies, but when Zhang Shuhua finished speaking, Zhang Cuiyun shouted to the outside world: "Someone is coming." β
Big and small Liu's mother immediately walked in.
"Invite her to the wing, so that she can be guarded."
Mother Liu stood beside Zhang Shuhua on the left and right, watching.
Zhang Shuhua didn't expect Zhang Cuiyun to take her so seriously, and after listening to the story, she didn't say anything or ask, she was about to lock herself up, and hurriedly shouted: "Why? β
Zhang Cuiyun glared angrily, and Mother Liu picked up Zhang Shuhua and walked out.
As soon as she walked out of the door, seeing that Zhang Shuhua was still struggling and shouting disobedience, Da Liu's mother said coldly: "Sister, if you dare to shout another word, don't blame me for whipping you?" β
"It's just... Miss's temperament is much better, if you had been in the past, you would have been buried alive a long time ago, and you still have the courage to shout, if you really look better, we won't dare to kill you? β
Zhang Shuhua is so big, the farthest place from home is this time, to put it bluntly, he really hasn't seen much of the world, so he is so simple that he dares to quarrel with Xiaomei in the hall. The richest and most powerful person I have ever seen is the richest man in the village, but because of Zhang Jun's relationship, even if everyone knows that the rich man covets her beauty, they don't dare to do it. Therefore, she simply thinks that those big families are similar to the rich man, at most, they have more people and money than the rich man, and they are more powerful, but they will always talk about the word 'reason'.
never thought that these wealthy families would be so domineering, they didn't take human life seriously at all, and they didn't care about her appearance, which gave her a big blow. Not only ideologically, but more importantly, her confidence in beauty felt a little weak for the first time......
